The majestic old man with a long beard walked out of the ward.

Ignoring the greetings of the relatives in the house, bowing his head and hurrying in a dull manner, he took the gold and left in a carriage when he went out, the wheels crushed the bluestone street and swayed lightly, and his face was full of sadness and sighing.

The old servant asked.

"Master, where are we going?"

"Ankang Fang, West City, 300 steps south of Fuqing Building, riverside street stall, looking for a woman selling umbrellas......"

"Wow. ”

The old horse drove through the morning market, the rain washed away the filthy smell in the city day and night, the morning market was full of people and horses slowing down, there was still no sleepiness and no hunger in the abdomen, the only son in the family was seriously ill, and the white-haired person could send the black-haired person at any time, and the grief in his heart was overwhelming, otherwise how could he go out in person because of a mere dream.

In addition to looking for that ethereal and expensive paper umbrella, by the way, come out to breathe.

The heavy rain stopped but still drizzled, the mattress in the car was wet and uncomfortable to sit on, the old man moved twice from time to time to make it more distressing, lifted the curtain and spit out turbidity, and suddenly felt that the rain was slightly cool.

"Gui Yue, alas, ......"

The carriage swayed and creaked forward, passing through the bustling morning market paving and heading straight for the West Market.

The heavy rain and clouds are still dispersed, the potholes are muddy, and the wooden wheels run over to break the calm of the puddles.

There was no fire by the river.

Even if it rains lightly, he can't continue to set up a stall to sell roasted sweet potatoes, so Bai Yujun plans to stay for a few days to analyze and sort out the information by the way, so he simply continues to set up a stall and sell umbrellas.

As for the monkeys......

Lying down under the willow tree and falling asleep.

No roasted sweet potatoes, no walnuts, peanuts, rice and sesame filled dough.

Suddenly, the monkey found that life had become meaningless and boring.

The stall is equipped with nine exquisite art-like oil-paper umbrellas, white, red, blue, and even painted with landscapes and clouds, ordinary people can't see through the mysteries, ordinary monks can't understand them, and the mysteries contained in them are mysterious.

Monkeys borrow willow trees to shelter from the rain, and they are not afraid of being killed by thunder, in fact, there are very few people who hide from the rain under the tree and are killed by thunder.

On the contrary, there were many lightning strikes in the open land.

Today, I changed into a coarse cloth long skirt, dressed as an ordinary girl, tied with coarse cloth strips, holding a white paper umbrella in one hand to avoid the rain and reading in the other, of course, the umbrella in my hand is a real weapon.

The drizzle and slanting wind soaked the time.

Noisy pedestrians, rushing for a living.

On a rainy day, stay in a small corner of the world to do your own thing, an umbrella is enough, listen to the willow branches falling and crackling in the rain, sometimes reading a book and sometimes selling in a daze, and the eyes are stunned and don't know what to think.

The monkey scratched his back, rolled over, curled up and fell asleep.

Bai Yujun looked up with a feeling in her heart.

In front of a wealthy businessman's carriage parked at the stall, the old coachman helped an old man older than him to get out of the car.

There were a few other umbrella sellers on the street, but the old man found that there were only nine umbrellas in this stall.

And......

Everything is remarkable at a glance.

Thinking back to the dream that the only son said, it is also somewhat real, but I don't know if it is a demon or a miracle.

"This girl, the old man came to buy an umbrella on purpose, I don't know ......"

The old man stopped talking.

It's really that he can't confirm whether the girl who bought the umbrella is really related to the dream, you can ask the price of the umbrella first, if the price is ten taels of gold, it must be right, at this time he did bring ten taels of gold to come, for the only son, money is just a foreign thing.

Bai Yujun closed the book and glanced at it.

The old man brought up the idea, so he gave Bai Yujun a starting point for deduction and calculation, waiting and watching the fortune teller look at the past and the future, just a mortal, seeing that he had no pressure in his past life and this life.

Freckled face looks at the white-haired old man.

"Buying an umbrella?"

"Exactly, what ......is the price of the umbrella?"

"I sold ten taels of gold before, but this trader adheres to the principle of fair trade and no bullying in business, and if you want to get more, you have to pay more, so the price has risen. ”

The hand holding the book gestured upwards and shrugged.

"This ...... Twenty taels of gold?"

Bai Yujun grabbed the little hand of the book and raised his index finger and shook it at the old man, looking light and light.

"No, no, no, this time and that time, although the gold is good, I am not lacking, if you can take out what I am interested in and sell the umbrella, it is not a problem, of course, if the value is high, I can buy another one and get one free, how about it~"

“......”

Staring at the nine umbrellas in front of him, the old man's face was heavy, and he could be sure that this woman must be related to the dream, but he couldn't tell whether it was a miracle or a deliberate poison and assassination, if it was the latter, it was no different from kidnapping for ransom.

He knew that there were demons and monsters in the world, but as a mortal, he didn't dare to provoke them easily.

A certain white couldn't guess what the other party's eyes meant, and suddenly got up in anger.

"Yo~ Treat me as a robber, right? The umbrella is no longer sold! Who do you love! Hurry up and stay away from my stall to save delaying business! Do you think that the protection fee of ten copper coins in half a month is in vain, right?"

The old man and the coachman almost spit out a mouthful of old blood, and paid protection money to the ruffians?

At the same time, perhaps sensing that the true dragon was dissatisfied, the sky was cloudy and thundered loudly!

Thundered......

"The girl is angry, the old man is thinking crankily, I really don't know what you are interested in in in the bottom of my heart, and I ask the girl to make it clear~"

Hearing this, a certain Bai sat back on the bamboo bench again.

Lazily spoke.

"There are times in life when you have to have it, and there are times in life when you don't have to force it. ”

After speaking, he will no longer speak, and the words will be done here, and the transaction will be successful, and it will take some time to find it slowly.

The old man in the brocade suit was stunned for a moment, as if he remembered something, his face was a little hesitant, as if he was weighing the life of his only son and that thing, and his face was entangled.

He bowed to the umbrella girl.

"Please allow the old man to weigh it and tell ...... Leave. ”

The girl who read the book waved the book too lazy to say hello, the boy under the willow tree turned over and chirped, and the nine umbrellas were still neatly placed and difficult to sell.

It was rainy and dreary, and the carriage walked back slowly.

"Master, is that thing really more important than the young master's life? The girl is not wrong, there is no time in her life to force it. ”

"It's enough to have grandchildren, leaving that thing may change the future of the family, compared to the rise and fall of a family's bloodline, a person's life is insignificant, as for the umbrella girl......"

The old man in brocade was a little hesitant.

I vaguely felt that it wouldn't do it secretly, but at this moment, I was a little uncertain.

The old coachman's face was hesitant, and he always felt that the old man had changed, he had never been so ruthless and cold-blooded at the beginning, and after decades of age, he became a man who counted gains and losses by human life.

The carriage creaked back, and the old horse knew the way, and soon returned to the mansion.

Unloading the cage and the wheel, the old driver gritted his teeth and went to the backyard......

Not long after, the female who had been crying in the scholar's ward hurriedly got into the carriage with a box in her hand, and the carriage went out of the gate quickly, and it was not long before the carriage went out, and another luxurious and noble carriage stopped in front of the gate.

The people who came were not nobles but staff members, and all the men in the house lined up on both sides of the door to greet them.

The man with a handful of beards gets out of the car.

The arrogant face and the old man in brocade clothes greeted each other, the carriage had the logo of the palace, even if it was the entourage of the palace staff, but still more status than the rich business owner, entered the living room, and after retiring from the crowd, the palace staff said what they meant.

"The prince agreed to your suggestion, but you want one thing, you know what so-and-so is talking about. ”
