The tavern is closed.

The door of the closed tavern was ajar.

On the half-open threshold sat a little girl in a cotton jacket of floral cloth.

The little girl wore two long braids.

She sat on the threshold with her hands on her knees, raised her head slightly, and looked at the white roofs across the alley and the white snow still flying.

Her gaze seemed a little glazed.

Her thoughts seemed to drift far away with the snow.

When Li Chenan and the others got out of the carriage and came to the door of this tavern, the girl had obviously heard the creaking footsteps, but she didn't retract her gaze.

He didn't even turn his head to look at them.

She said something about:

"It's the New Year, the tavern is closed, you want to drink, and you will come back on the fifth day of the first month!"

She seemed to be thinking about something that didn't match her age now, and there was a sadness on her frozen red face.

She didn't notice that at this moment, many neighbors in the alley of Erjinggou had come out.

But no one dared to come near.

No one even made the slightest sound.

They looked at the two carriages from a little distance, and their eyes finally fell on the young man standing in the doorway.

The young man was dressed in a dark cotton robe and a dark red shawl.

He also carried a pitch-black sword on his back.

He stood in the snow, like a proud snow pine!

He is Li Chen'an!

He was the fool who originally lived in Guangling City!

He's the little owner of this tavern......

In March, he stayed in this tavern.

He often gets up early in the morning to run, and he often chats with his neighbors.

At that time, he was no longer stupid.

At that time, he was no longer as withdrawn as he used to be.

He was happy to communicate with people, even after the tavern's business was booming, he was still easy-going.

In the eyes of these neighbors in Erjinggou Alley, he and the former Li Chenan have been judged as two people!

Yesterday, he returned to Guangling City, and in the eyes of the people of Guangling City, he was already an existence that could not be looked up to.

At this point he came to the tavern where he started.

Even the neighbors who used to be close didn't dare to come forward and talk to him as often as before.

He is already the supreme regent of the Ning Kingdom!

He came to the tavern, thinking that Cui Sanniang and the little girl named Cuihua in this tavern would follow him to live a good life in the future.

Cuihua knew that Li Chenan was back yesterday.

She was overjoyed.

It's also very worrying.

Rejoicing is that the guy who taught her how to make wine and the guy who wrote the words actually ascended to the sky in one step.

When I went to Kyoto, I really mixed up like a person.

The worry is ...... That coffin shop in that alley of the Four Temples!

The coffin shop in Kyoto has long since closed.

Then the coffin shop in the Four Temples, which has been open until now but has long since ceased business, is probably about to close.

When Grandpa was alive, he said, that door can't be closed!

Because there are four coffins left in it, four people need to fit in!

Four people who can't kill themselves!

So can you count on him?

Cuihua withdrew her gaze, but still did not turn her head, her eyes fell on the snow in front of her, and she saw a pair of small black deerskin boots.

She was slightly startled, and then she heard the familiar voice:

"On such a cold day, isn't it better to be in a daze with a fire?"

Cuihua raised her head, turned her head, and her eyes suddenly shone with a gleam of joy......

"Young Master!"

Her name is Young Master!

She stood up, craned her neck, her eyes widened, and after five breaths, she seemed to realize that she was not dreaming.

"Young Master, how did you get here?"

Li Chenan was speechless for a moment: "This is my shop, young master!" At the end of the year, it's time to look at the ledger to know the surplus of the year. ”

Cuihua laughed.

This is the taste of the young master's greed for money.

Still hasn't changed.

That's nice!

Her eyes fell on Xiao Baozi's face, and she was slightly startled......

As the oldest bronze medalist in Guangling City, she had certainly heard the news about Xi Wei's daughter.

Xi Wei has never seen it.

The previous lord of Wanxi Zhai had not seen it.

But obviously Xi Wei will not be ugly, and that Xiao steamed bun should be very beautiful.

Because this girl is beautiful.

It's not as delicate as Miss Ruoshui.

But there is a kind of slightly wild beauty that Miss Ruoshui does not have!

If a woman is a flower, at this moment in Cuihua's heart, Miss Ruoshui is an orchid blooming under the careful care of the garden.

And this girl is a lily blooming in the wind, frost, rain and dew between the valleys and cliffs.

It's much stronger than Cuihua!

Master...... Tasteful!

Even Xi Wei's daughter dared to blatantly take it with her.

At this moment, Cuihua forgot the troubles just now, she smiled and looked at Li Chen'an again, "Earned!" ”

"I've made a lot of money!"

"Young Master...... Miss, inside please! ”

In the sight of all the neighbors, the group entered the tavern, and the door of the tavern creaked shut.

Keep all eyes out of the door.

But there were many voices at this moment.

Without it.

It's all an exclamation for the return of the regent.

……

……

Bistro backyard.

The familiar big banyan tree, the familiar pavilion with a snow-white roof.

There is also the familiar taste of sake lees.

Cui Sanniang put the account book in front of Li Chen'an, but looked at Li Chen'an and asked worriedly: "Young master, what about my son?" ”

"Xiaohua has made meritorious contributions, and now he is the centurion of the martial arts battalion!"

The former Li Jiajun was finally renamed by An Zizai.

"This time, young master, I have something for him to do, so I can't come back yet."

Cui Sanniang finally breathed a sigh of relief, and her face was happy, "Then the old body is grateful to the young master!" ”

Saying this, she pointed to the account book and was about to explain it in detail to Li Chenan, but was interrupted by Li Chenan waving his hand.

"Do you really think I'm here to check this account?"

"Put it away, if you can't be trusted by me, I'm afraid there will be no one in the world who I can trust."

"I'm going back to the tavern today, I'm here to see you, you've worked hard in the past few months, Sanniang, the New Year's silver, you and Cuihua each take one hundred taels!"

"Go buy some clothes or buy something you want to buy, I'm afraid you'll be busy for a few more days."

"Ming'er, Chinese New Year's Eve, you all go to the Li Mansion and celebrate the New Year together in my house."

Cui Sanniang and Cuihua were immediately overjoyed, firstly, the reward of one hundred taels of silver was something they never expected.

Second, the young master is now a dignified regent!

He even invited them to his house for the New Year......

What is it called?

This is true glory!

It's a pity that Cui Sanniang and Cuihua don't have clansmen, otherwise this is a big thing that can be recorded in the genealogy and inherited by future generations!

"Thank you, young master!"

They are still called young masters.

Because of the kindness.

Li Chenan is also very happy, after all, this is the first industry he came to this world, and the two of them are employees at the beginning of his business in this world!

Be kind.

"Follow the young master and ensure that you can live the best life!"

"Xiaohua may be able to make a big difference in the army, and it is not impossible to become the general of Ning Guo in the future."

"As for Cuihua, if you marry in the future, the young master and I will be your mother's family, if you take a fancy to a young man, the young master will be the master for you, and he will marry you in a beautiful way!"

Cuihua's little face turned red, but she asked, "Young master, are you going to Pingjiang City?" ”

"Passing by, the young master is going to Shuzhou."

"Oh......"

Cuihua didn't say anything more, but there was a clear look of disappointment on her face.

Li Chenan asked curiously:

"Do you have relatives in Pingjiang City?"

Cuihua didn't shake her head or nod:

“…… It's not a relative, young master, you have never asked me what my surname is. ”
