By the stove in the back kitchen, Wang Lianqing stared at the flames in the stove flickering, his eyes were full of light, his eyes were blurred, he tilted his head and took a nap, drowsy, I don't know if he didn't sleep well, or he was called up too early by the old man.

The lid of the kettle on the stove was boiled and the water vapor began to be lifted from side to side, and after a while, water came out of the mouth of the kettle and flowed into the furnace along the body of the kettle, and after a while, there was a popping sound when the water was poured on the fire, Wang Lianqing woke up when he heard it, and muttered in a low voice, "Oops!" , immediately got up and took the linen cloth from the stove, quickly walked to the stove and wrapped the handle with the linen cloth in his hand, lifted the kettle and put it on the side, Xu is pot handle was burned for too long, although it was wrapped in linen cloth is still very hot, Wang Lianqing hurriedly touched the root of the back ear with his hand, and said to himself: "It's really hot." ”

After a while, I hurriedly took out the tea leaves, put them in the tea jar, poured the boiled hot water into it and began to make tea, and then began to divide the pots after brewing, so that the visitors could directly pick up the pot and serve the tea first.

Although he is the grandson of the old shopkeeper, he didn't invite any guys, it was the old man and the two helpers hired to do these trivial things, until Wang Lianqing grew up, he would come to help when he was free, so there was no difference between the young owner and the young man, it was all his own business, and he didn't see anything else.

After dividing the tea, he walked to the front hall after carrying two pots, and when he walked to the door, he found that the kitchen master surnamed Zhao was coming not far away, and Master Zhao also found Wang Lianqing, looking at Wang Lianqing's thin body, carrying two pots of tea left and right, quite funny, smiled and walked over, the two approached, Wang Lianqing politely greeted first: "Uncle Zhao is early!"

"Well, early, why did you get up so early today?"

Wang Lianqing said with a complaining look, "It's not because of the old man, but I have to go to school later, and I have to get up early, I'm afraid that I will be disciplined by Mr. again if it is late." ”

Hearing Wang Lianqing's words, Master Zhao laughed. Yan said, "Have you had breakfast?"

"I've eaten it. ”

"Okay, then you can go, I'll just come here for these trivial things, it's still early, and the guests haven't come to the door yet. ”

"Okay, Uncle Zhao. With that, he walked to the lobby. Wang Lianqing put the two teapots on the account desk of Mr. Accounts in the lobby, walked to the backyard, walked to his bedroom, took the bookcase and carried it, and went out.

walked to the lobby on the first floor and said to the second floor: "Old man, I'm going to a private school, don't think too much about me." ”

"Get out!" the shopkeeper scolded angrily.

Wang Lianqing smiled and muttered, "The old man is still very short-tempered, this is very bad, hehehe." ”

"Leave me dinner at night!" After speaking, he went out and disappeared at the entrance of Fuchun Street.

Walk through two deep alleys to Taihe Street, it is the opening of the morning market, quite lively, Taihe Street is the West Street, there are a major shops, everything you need for daily life, it is much more lively than the other two streets, all kinds of shouting and selling are filling the street.

Wang Lianqing walked to a butcher shop and looked at the middle-aged man on the counter who was shirtless and hanging from his waist, carrying a huge boning knife and chopping pig's feet, and smiled unconsciously.

Scanning around, I found that there were three people waiting for the man to buy meat, one person was standing by the shop and waiting, two people were looking at the meat on the shop, and there were liver, intestine skewers, pig belly, a big pig's head, a few willow meat, tied with a pig's tail, and occasionally dripping blood, which seemed to be freshly slaughtered pork.

The man didn't look at people either, and said while chopping with a knife: "Buy the meat and wait for a while, and cut it immediately." ”

After a while, he cut off two hind legs from the pig's thighs and tied them with hay ropes, then wrapped them in banana leaves, carefully handed them to the waiting person at the stall and said, "Boss Lin, your meat is cut, take it carefully, and go." ”

"Haole" handed the man money for meat and left satisfied.

The man smiled slightly, turned around and wanted to ask the other two guests who wanted to buy meat, and found Wang Lianqing on the side.

Wang Lianqing greeted the big man with a smile: "Uncle Liu is early." ”

"Oh, Xiaoqing, it's early, are you looking for Ji Ren?"

"Well, yes Uncle Liu, Mr. Li has a handout in a while, and we have to go to the private school. ”

"Oh, that rabbit cub is probably still sleeping, you go to the house to find him by yourself, if you don't get up to help me beat him up. ”

Wang Lianqing replied with a slight smile: "Eh~ I can't beat him." ”

"Let's go," the man surnamed Liu smiled awkwardly.

Wang Lianqing responded: "Okay!" ran into the alley behind, turned a corner, and disappeared.

Wang Lianqing came to find a little friend who grew up together, named Liu Jiren, about the same age as Wang Lianqing, four months older than him, and a little fat man with a lot of meat, Wang Lianqing has been such a friend since he was a child, and he thinks it is the most fun to be with Liu Jiren.

When I was a child, everyone disliked Wang Lianqing for being a baby without a father and mother, and everyone didn't want to play with him, only this little friend named Liu Jiren didn't dislike him, and often fought with other children with him, every time the two of them were beaten with blue noses and swollen faces, but they just didn't accept the group of children who were fighting with too many people.

Liu Jiren is a butcher's family, since his grandfather's generation, he has been slaughtering for a living, and the big knife mentioned by the meat seller in the shop was passed down from his grandfather's generation, until his father's generation still made a living as a butcher.

Now is the prosperous era of peace and peace, his father feels that this life of butchers, except for supporting the family, there is nothing to do, so he hopes that Liu Jiren can enter the school to study and learn words, and in the future to participate in the exam, enter the court as an official, and glorify the lintel.

Wang Lianqing turned the two corners of the alley, came to a small alley called Wutong Lane, walked more than ten steps along the tall side-by-side plane trees, and arrived at the gate of a courtyard near the alley, the door was not closed, this is Liu Jiren's home, he has been here many times.

Liu Jiren's bedroom was on the left side of the hall, Wang Lianqing walked straight in, came to the door of Liu Jiren's room, stretched out his hand and knocked on the door three times, 'Dong, Dong, Dong~' There was a lazy sentence inside: "Who?"

Wang Lian cleared his throat: "Heavenly Father!"

Immediately, a sound of Hiso was heard inside, and then it came: "The treasure land is still deflated." ”

Wang Lianqing smiled slightly and said, "There are many basils in Liujiang!"

Then a loud voice came from the room: "The riverside girl is the most sassy." ”

After a while, then the house laughed, the door opened from the inside, and I saw Liu Jiren, who was wearing a pair of obscene pants and shirtless, and was fat, standing in the door and staring at Wang Lianqing outside the door with a smile.

"It's you, Xiaoqing, who else is it? ”

Wang Lianqing looked at Liu Jiren and joked: "Brother Fat Tiger, it's me, I haven't seen you for two days, and I'm Biao again." ”

Hearing Wang Lianqing's words, the fat man Liu Jiren instantly stretched out his right palm and waved it to prevent Wang Lianqing from speaking, and then said: "Eh, slow down, please call me the dragon and phoenix jade face little white dragon Liu Gongzi in the people." ”

After speaking, his head was still tilted upward, and he reached out and brushed the hair on his right forehead and curled it up, very calmly and calmly posing there in a self-righteous and chic posture.

Wang Lianqing looked at the fat man's fat man, and the very incompatible behavior, "poof" laughed, although this situation is usually commonplace, but still can't help it, and then I really can't help it, Wang Lianqing laughed, leaned forward and back, and laughed out of tears.

The fat man really couldn't stand it, the corners of his mouth trembled slightly, and he hurriedly stopped: "Come on, come on, I said how can you look like those mortals, you just can't appreciate my romantic posture and suave beauty, I can't stand being so handsome, okay." ”

After listening to the fat man's words, Wang Lianqing almost didn't laugh and turned his back on his breath, finally eased up, hurriedly went into the table in the house, poured a glass of water and hurriedly drank it, stroked his chest, eased it slightly, and said to the fat man Liu Jiren: "Everyone is their own people, what is there to say, don't play tricks, forgive me and other mortals who really can't see your beauty." ”

The fat man muttered and wanted to say something to Wang Lianqing, but he didn't know what he thought, and said with a slight smile: "That's right, mortals really don't understand my suave romance, you wait for a while." After saying that, he smiled and walked to the bed.

Wang Lianqing sat on the chair at the round table and secretly covered his mouth and smiled while the fat man turned his back, and he was no stranger to the behavior of this partner who had played since he was a child, but he couldn't help it every time, this fat man was a well-known narcissist, and he always thought that he was a handsome and dashing person, so he didn't know anything about himself, and Wang Lianqing was also quite speechless.

But there are always some interesting and happy things that happen with him, and he is relatively large, and the two of them are very confident in fighting with children of the same age.

For the combination of Wang Lianqing and Liu Jiren, one fat and one thin, their peers nicknamed them "Fat Tiger" and "Thin Mouse", and the two of them were really angry with such titles, but the fat Liu Jiren's shameless narcissistic behavior can also make the people who oppose them half angry, and the nickname is self-defeating.

However, when the two are together, they often use their nicknames to tease each other, which is quite interesting.

The bed is separated from the outer room by a screen, and the fat man dresses on the edge of the bed by the screen, Wang Lianqing said to the fat man in the house: "Ji Ren, when we talk to each other in the future, can you be quiet, I'm afraid that I won't be listened to by Mr. ”

"I'm afraid of an egg, ahh ”

Wang Lianqing listened and smiled.

After a while, Liu Jiren seemed to think of something, and said, "What you said is not unreasonable, pay attention to it in the future." ”

Wang Lianqing responded: "Hmm!".

It turns out that the counterpart between Wang Lianqing and Liu Jiren just now is a poem written by their teacher, and the original poem is "Song of the North Look":

Heaven shines on me,

Treasure land gathers virtuous high.

Liu Jiang is multi-talented,

The river is beautiful and bent over.

It is meant to be a place of outstanding people in Beiwang Town, blessed by the sky, and there will be capable scholars, who are admired by the beauties of Linhe Street.

Who would have thought that these two hairy boys would change such a good poem into their own counterpart:

Heaven shines on your fart,

The treasure land is also deflated.

Liujiang multi-basil,

The riverside girl is the most sassy.

If Mr. Teaching sees that his poems have been changed to such a crooked and evil spirit, he will not be angry.

After a while, the fat man got dressed, freshened up and dressed up stinky and beautiful, walked out of the room with Wang Lianqing, walked into the lobby, took a few pieces of dim sum and wrapped them and stuffed them in the bookcase, chewed a piece in his hand, and handed Wang Lianqing a piece, Wang Lianqing didn't ask for it, he nibbled on the dim sum with his left and right hands, Wang Lianqing frowned, and it was reasonable to think that Liu Jiren was fat.

Walking out of the door, at the corner of the alley, the two met Liu's mother, who went to the street to buy vegetables early in the morning, and saw Wang Lianqing and Liu Jiren, who wanted to go to the school, said hello, and told them to be careful on the road, and listen to the teacher's lecture in the school.

Wang Lianqing is actually very envious of Liu Jiren, his parents are still alive, and he loves him very much, unlike his grandfather who is only a non-relative and non-relative, although he is not bad to him, but after all, he has not enjoyed such rain and dew, and envy is also a matter of course.

Wang Lianqing often came to Liu's house to play with Liu Jiren, and the Liu family also knew the tragic fate of this child, and they were very good to him.

Taihe Street, walk all the way to the end of the street, you can go to the school, because it is quiet and suitable for studying, and the school is open there.

Wang Lianqing and Liu Jiren disappeared at the mouth of Wutong Lane, and on Taihe Street, a fat and thin figure rose against the rising sun, as if the silhouette of a long time.

"Hurry up, Mr. has a handout today, and if you are late, I am afraid that it will not be good for Mr. to quit again." ”

"It's okay to take a ruler by one, it's true that I don't want to copy books anymore. ”

Walking along the street, facing all kinds of cries and shouts, stepping on the reflection of the morning light, a fat and a thin figure seemed to have no troubles in their memories and walked towards the school.
