Xia Jie picked up the teacup and drank it all, and then refilled it with a full amount of hot water, then closed the phone, folded his hands behind his head, and looked at the endless river with his eyes slightly closed.

In this teahouse built on the edge of the Han River, there are many customers, most people walk here, they will choose to take a break, play mahjong poker in the teahouse for a while, but like Xia Jie, order a cup of tea, and enjoy the scenery by himself is rare.

The temperature in October is still a little hot, but fortunately, the long holiday is almost over, and the flow of people is not as high as in the first few days.

But because the long vacation is coming to an end, some people finally have a vacation and can go out for a spin, and Li Sanjin is one of them. Carrying a heavy travel bag, he set off early in the morning, and finally walked to the end of the sightseeing road under the sun, and finally completed a trip to the Han River in terms of form.

Finishing the way, his oversized short sleeves were already soaked, he supported his legs with one hand, and fanned vigorously with his fat palms, and his body trembled as his body shook.

Looking at his big shoulders and round waist, his weight must be at least one hundred and sixteen, and more importantly, his height is also one meter six, which is very embarrassing.

"I'm tired of the master, huh, who the hell built this road so long?"

Li Sanjin was tired and thirsty, he shook his shoulders and pulled down the travel bag he was carrying, but the mineral water that could be inserted in the small pocket next to him had already bottomed out, and only a layer of white mist was on it.

Looking at this scene, Li Sanjin couldn't help it at all, he touched his loose trouser pocket, there were one or two red tickets in it, he looked at the antique tea garden that was repaired not far away, gritted his teeth and walked straight over.

"Mountain Stream Teahouse?"

Li Sanjin came closer to see the signboard of this shop, he looked around, this tea garden looks very ancient on the outside, but in the hall inside, there are machine, hemp TVs and the like.

In the small café outside, there were few people, only a man who looked exceptionally strong was lying down and resting.

"Hello, what do you want to drink?"

The proprietress of the tea garden came over with a smile, stretched out her hand to signal him to sit down and rest first, and even pointed out to him a bench woven of rattan and wood, which was not only cool and breathy, but also dried his clothes quickly.

Li Sanjin thought that he could buy water here, but there was no merchant selling water here, and even the sightseeing car was parked here, and the drivers were playing cards inside.

You don't have to think about it to know that there must be a certain background to be able to open a store here, so before Li Sanjin came, he was also mentally prepared to spend in this kind of nature reserve, and the starting price would be twice as expensive as outside.

But who made him tired and thirsty now? He should indulge himself for once. High consumption is high consumption!

"Well, just have a cup of ordinary green tea."

"Hehe, okay." The proprietress didn't say much, turned around and went to pour tea.

Li Sanjin threw his travel bag on the vacant bench, sat slumped and refused to move, until he recovered his strength, then opened his backpack and took out a book with a white cover, and flipped through it casually.

While looking at him, he still chanted a word, "Fortunately, the young master is smart and didn't take the mountain road mentioned above, otherwise even if he didn't fall down the mountain and fell to his death, he would have died of thirst and exhaustion on the mountain." ”

When the tea was delivered, Li Sanjin closed the book and took a sip of the teacup, the few big characters on the writing were very clear, and it turned out to be a reprinted "Fourteen Hundred Years of the Founding of Hanyu City".

After taking a few sips of tea, I don't know if it was tired or thirsty, Li Sanjin praised the tea again and again as if he had drunk the elixir and jade liquid.

"Well, the source of this Han water is worthy of its name, and the water is really delicious."

After all, this cup of tea has only been brewed for a short time, and the tea leaves have not yet dispersed, and what he drank is indeed the taste of water.

The proprietress just turned around and wanted to leave, and when she heard this, she also smiled and explained: "Hehe, the water we have here is directly pumped from the underground river of Hanshui, pure natural filtration, rich in a variety of mineral elements......"

"Uh......"

Li Sanjin was stunned, looked down at the teacup, and then looked up at the proprietress again, with a touch of embarrassment on his face, "Then shouldn't this water also count as money?" ”

"Hehe, don't worry, water doesn't count as money, it's enough to drink."

The proprietress put down the kettle with a smile, carried a full kettle, walked to the table in front, and replaced the kettle that Xia Jie had drunk half of the water on the table and had become warm.

"Yes, I'm in trouble."

Xia Jie also came back to his senses from his meditation, he turned his head and thanked him, his eyes subconsciously glanced around, and he happened to meet the fat man who had just arrived.

His turning head stopped abruptly, staring at Li Sanjin and frowning, he inexplicably had a sense of déjà vu in his heart.

And Li Sanjin was panicked by him, a strong man wearing a vest and revealing a pimple meat, looking at himself fiercely, he felt afraid for no reason, and hurriedly lowered his head and didn't dare to look at the other party directly, and he subconsciously thought in his heart, did he offend this big brother in society?

"Squeaky ......"

Li Sanjin frowned, and he clearly heard the sound of a seat dragging in front of him.

"It's over, he's not going to come and beat me, is he? ……”

Just when he was thinking nonsense and scaring himself, the footsteps of the person who came suddenly stopped in front of him, and after a while, a low male voice sounded: "Are you, three fat?" ”

Sanfat is Li Sanjin's nickname in the orphanage back then, he has been chubby since he was a child, and the three characters in his name are added, so the nickname of Sanfat has spread.

Hearing this, Li Sanjin raised his head suddenly, looking at this burly man, how could he not match his appearance with the person he knew back then.

He was stunned, "How do you know this name?" ”

Xia Jie smiled slightly, he was only a little guessing just now, but when he got closer, he saw the book on Li Sanjin's desk, and then he remembered him suddenly, after all, everyone in the orphanage was thin back then, and it was this kid who was round and jade, and it was difficult to forget it.

"I'm Xia Jie, I was in the orphanage a year before you, do you have any impression of the children of the Xia generation?"

At that time, the orphanage named the child after Xia, Shang, Zhou, Qin, and four generations in turn, and his name before he was adopted was Shang Sanjin, but he later changed his surname with his adoptive parents.

Li Sanjin was stunned for a moment, and the past was immediately thought of in his mind, and he nodded again and again: "Xia ...... Brother Jie? Yes, yes, yes, I remember you, you fought very well back then......"

"Haha." Hearing that the other party remembered that he was fighting, Xia Jie couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

Pulling out a chair and sitting down, he pointed to the book on his desk and diverted the topic, "Why, you're here on purpose?" ”

At the mention of this, the estrangement between the two sides disappeared in a flash, Li Sanjin smiled, nodded helplessly, "No, Grandma Zhang used to tell bedtime stories every night, I thought at the time, I have to find a chance to come here to see in this life, what about you, Brother Jie?" Did you come here as well? ”

"It's about the same as you."

Xia Jie nodded, took the reprinted book on the table, and saw that there were traces of folding pages on it that were often flipped through. He also sighed: "I remember that you were adopted after staying in the orphanage for less than a year, and after so many years, it is rare that you can still remember it and have a heart." ”

Li Sanjin scratched his head, "Hey, what's the heart, I'm just bored, it's just that the publishing house reprinted a batch, and I just bought a copy when I passed by." ”

"Yes." Xia Jie flipped through it casually, he still had a lot of impressions of the above literary and historical stories and wild historical records, but he didn't have that emotion in it.

This book, not important. The person who told him this book back then is the one who matters.

He put down the book, and just when he wanted to ask Li Sanjin how he had been doing at his adoptive parents' house over the years, he carefully looked at his clothes and backpack bags, but he couldn't ask.

It stands to reason that with his adopted situation, there are people to help him in life, and he will not be wearing it now, which is similar to his previous construction site.

It seems that he has not had a good time in the years he has been adopted.

Xia Jie also changed the topic, and instead chatted with him about the few common memories before, but he also had a good conversation.

In fact, although the two are about the same age, when they were admitted to the hospital, Sanjin's seniority was shorter by one round, and the circle between the two did not have much intersection, but now that they have met, there is also a kind of kindness of meeting old acquaintances in a foreign country.

In the evening, Xia Jie invited him to a meal, and after the meal, even if Li Sanjin didn't have enough cash, he took out his credit card and wanted to rush to check out, but Xia Jie insisted on refusing to let him, and then the two sat down for a while, and when it was about to get dark, Li Sanjin said goodbye and left.

During the meal, Li Sanjin couldn't help but spit out his heart, he was very cute when he was chubby, and he was very happy at the beginning when he was adopted to a new home, but later, the parents unexpectedly conceived their own child, and now he became a superfluous existence.

However, the couple is still benevolent and dutiful, and they raised him conscientiously, but they only raised him, taking care of food and housing, and he also had to help the family work and take care of the children.

The inertia of life is terrible, and he unknowingly stayed in this pseudo-greenhouse for more than ten years, until he came out to rehabilitate himself, and only discovered the cruelty of the world......

After seeing off Li Sanjin, Xia Jie returned to the hotel, stood in front of the transparent floor-to-ceiling windows, looked at the flowing river, and silently lit a cigarette.

Today's unexpected encounter reminded him of more memories of his childhood.

In addition to those scattered memories of fighting, it seems that there was often a small tail behind her ass back then, I don't know, how she is doing now.

"Shhh...... Call. ”

Xia Jie smoked the entire cigarette in one breath and spit out a handful of smoke as thick as a cloud.

It's not that he's angry, but his current lung capacity is so large, and with a little effort, the cigarette butt will burn out all at once.
