Since I met that Zhang Linfan, my store has been really lively.

From time to time, he will suddenly come out, either carrying some strange snacks, or bringing some strange musical scores, and even more exaggeratedly, he will even bring some injured animals to me for treatment, the most hateful thing is that these animals are not the cats and dogs on the street, they are all strange flowers and plants, or rare birds and beasts, and even fierce snakes and insects, which is really to break my "instrumental music shop" into the rhythm of "pet hospital"!

No, because of him, Lin'er was already standing outside the door with a feather duster again, and with that murderous look, there was even less business in this small shop.

"Lin'er, come in for me!" Looking at Zhang Linfan, who was already standing in the store, I bowed my head helplessly and smiled, and greeted Lin'er, "Let you take care of the house, whether it is rats or insects, you can't let them go, it is estimated that this person can't watch it!"

Jumping up with a curtain, Lin'er's feather duster slashed directly at the back of Zhang Linfan's head: "Here it is again, see if I don't teach you a lesson!"

She gritted her teeth loudly, and a feather duster danced to hunt and hunt, and the tiger and tiger beat all the way, until the dust flew all the way, and the smoke was miasma.

"......" Zhang Linfan didn't make a sound, just blindly retreated to defend himself, and stubbornly protected the thing in the palm of his left hand.

Walking over, I blocked Lin'er's attack with a flick of my fingers, and scolded: "Okay, don't you see something in Mr. Zhang's hand?"

Lin'er, who was stopped behind me, would not be convinced: "I don't care, I just want to beat him out, our store has become a pet store every day, and those look so delicious, but you won't let you eat them!"

"Poof!" Zhang Linfan and I made this sound at the same time, but I was laughing, and he didn't seem to have changed much on his face, only the corners of his mouth moved, and he was finally smiling!

"You!" I shook my head and sighed, "Why do you think about eating all day long, all these years of cultivation are useless!"

"What the hell is him!" Lin'er withdrew her hand unconvinced, pouted and said, "Miss has been very biased since she knew him!"

Looking at each other, Zhang Linfan and I both shook our heads slightly.

"Mr. Zhang, please sit down, it just so happened that Lin'er cooked some green plum wine!" scooped some and poured it into a clean cup, I handed it over, "This green plum was picked by Lin'er early in the morning, it is very fresh!"

"Hmph!" tilted her little head to the side, Lin'er didn't speak, but her face was smiling, she was so childish, she only praised a little or two, and she could laugh for most of the day.

"Miss Day, do you know this thing?" After sitting down, Zhang Linfan did not drink first, but stretched out his hand in front of me and spread out his palm.

Gently taking the little thing from his palm, I stroked it distressedly: "This little guy is rare now!"

Lin'er was not surprised, although Zhang Linfan had seen it many times, he was still a little surprised.

Soon, the little thing regained its luster, and flew from my palm to the ground, getting bigger and bigger, and finally turned into a pipa carved like Hetian jade, the color is transparent, the color is as white as thunder, the quality is thick and moist, elegant but not arrogant, ethereal and far-reaching, easy but not floating, it is really beautiful!

"God, Tianxin!" Lin'er pointed at it and shouted, "Miss, yes, it's that Tianxin!"

Zhang Linfan's curiosity couldn't help but rise: "This is obviously a spirit insect that I rescued by accident, how did it become this jade pipa?"

"You really don't know!" can be regarded as seizing the opportunity, Lin'er went over and held the pipa in her hand, while pretending to be a pedant, "Have you ever heard of the piano?"

Shaking his head, Zhang Linfan looked at her seriously, like a good student waiting for the teacher's teaching.

"In the Great Wilderness North Classic of Mountains and Seas, there is a place called 'Su Shen Country', in the Great Wilderness, there is a mountain name called Bu Xian, and there is the country of Su Shen Clan. There are leeches, four wings. There are insects, beast heads and snake bodies, and the name is qin insects!" shaking her head and reciting the content of the "Classic of Mountains and Seas", Lin'er patted the pipa in her arms and said, "This is the insect with the head of a beast and the body of a snake!"

Nodding again, Zhang Linfan looked at me: "I just heard that its name is Tianxin, have you seen it before?"

"I've seen it!" Lin'er made up her mind to steal my lines today, "There is still a story in this Tianxin!"

"Story?" Finally drinking the wine into his stomach, Zhang Linfan exhaled a long breath, "What kind of story is that?" asked, and his wine glass stretched out in front of me again.

Scooping another ladle into his wine glass, I looked at the time and said, "If Mr. Zhang is not in a hurry today, I am willing to tell you!" took a sip of wine, took out a piece of tissue paper, and gently wiped the corners of his mouth, "This story is messy and long, I'm afraid you will be bored listening to it!"

"There is no good man in men!" Lin'er hugged the Tianxin Pipa and sat down on the counter, sighing while gently wiping it.

"I want to listen!" Turning back his gaze at Lin'er, Zhang Linfan's eyes sparkled as he looked at me.

"Alright then!" I looked away, fearing that a careless one might make him aware of something.

"Wait a minute, I want to listen too!" Lin'er, who had already put the pipa into the back hall, hurriedly carried a chair and ran out, "I want to listen too!" This girl was obviously there when the incident happened, but she still had to come to join in the fun.

Grabbing the fan, I sat up straight and said, "Remember, it was a year-end ......."

Recounting the scene of that year, I even sank into the memory.

......

It's approaching the end of the year, and the city of Luoyang has become lively.

The street is full of traffic, every shop began to put up red paper and hang red lights, and the merchants on the street who carried and sold things also shouted one after another, attracting pedestrians to stop.

However, my instrumental music shop on Lei Yan Street has become more and more cold thanks to this year. Only occasionally there are a few girls who can sing in the Qinglou or the wine room, and they will bring all kinds of pianos, or change the strings, or tinker, or simply take the opportunity to be lazy, and come to me to ask for a glass of wine to eat.

The wind chimes on the door were faint, and a delicate person walked in with the curtain: "Day girl!"

Straightening up from the counter, I smiled and responded, "Isn't this Mrs. Chu!" After speaking, I greeted him.

Mrs. Chu is the wife of a person surnamed Chu in the city, the person is called Chu Liang, who seems to be a master who is full of economic and vassal elegance, but he is simply a good eater and lazy to do, and he will only chant some broken poems and sour things all day long, and he is just idle, and he doesn't want to make a name, Lin'er often says that he is worse than a wasted person.

The two elders in this person's family are still perfect, but they are very fond of this son in every way, and the people next to him will be dissatisfied with the second elder even if they even point a finger. Over the years, it is not that this Mrs. Chu is thrifty and diligent, and has a good way to run the family, but I am afraid that the little accumulated business left by the ancestor will be ruined long ago.

Mrs. Chu's maiden name is Mo, her name is Yin, and she somehow married this Chu family blindly, and she has been married for more than ten years, and I heard that her parents in the family have also died, and she has no brothers and sisters and no brothers and sisters, and she is also a lonely person.

Life and death are the deepest tragedies in the world, not to mention, her mother's family has no family background, and her parents are still alive and can often receive rice noodles, but now even these are gone.

But there is no endless road, this Mrs. Chu can really be regarded as a person with a beautiful and beautiful heart, a good quality and a heart, and a person with a seven-trick heart. On weekdays, she is very popular with girls who make a good hand, and she also cooks a good dish, and she can make some crude things extra delicious. Therefore, Lin'er, this girl, often pesters her to do it. It's just that although these can be subsidized for the family, they are not a big income, where is there enough for the sour Ding to eat, drink and have fun.

Coincidentally, she also has some skills that others don't have, that is, to make a good string, whether it is a guqin or a pipa, but everything that needs strings, she can make them all, and the craftsmanship is exquisite, and the best craftsmen in this city can't match. That's why I often order some good strings from her. After going back and forth like this, she had more silver on hand, but hatefully, she also gave the sour husband more money to decorate, so as not to make him lose face.

However, this Mrs. Chu is extremely stingy with herself, she is often penniless, and she doesn't know how many times she has washed and mended her old clothes, and she can't tell her true colors, but she is still dressed neatly and generously. The whole street is that she is looking forward to her husband Jackie Chan, and the minister of the Chu family must have been able to marry such a good woman as a wife because of the green smoke on the head of the ancestral grave.

"I'm really looking forward to you!" I took her hand, I felt that the roughness that should not belong to this beautiful girl, "If it weren't for the urgency of the guests, I wouldn't have let you be in such a hurry!"

Looking at the bloodshot in her eyes and the strings in the basket in her hand, I suddenly felt distressed.

"Don't worry, don't take it to heart!" handed me the basket in her hand, she smiled shallowly, although a little haggard, but beautiful and heartbreaking.

"Mrs. Chu is here!" Lin'er ran out after cleaning the back hall, still holding a plate cake in her hand, "You can taste it, this is made by my young lady!" She has always been warm-hearted, and she knows that this Mrs. Chu has a hard life, and the delicious food and drink are all close to the second elder of her husband's family, and her husband, and she often can't eat on weekdays, so she always sends her some food for various reasons.

After pouring another cup of jasmine tea, I pushed it in front of her: "You use some snacks first, have a cup of tea!"

Nodding, she ate slowly, but without speaking.

"Lin'er, go get 5 taels of silver!" I patted Lin'er back, and I gave her a look.

"Hmm!" she replied, and left in understanding.

And I pinched a trick, silently peeking at the hearts of the people in front of me, but my heart was even more sad.
