During the day, Su Yang and Yan Ruyu walked around Jinling City, inquired about suitable places to live, looked for Sun Li by the way, and temporarily lived in a restaurant at night, so after two days, Su Yang finally asked for a house.

"You've come to the right place. ”

A man was about thirty years old, shy, and said to Su Yang with a smile: "I haven't lived in this new house since it was repaired, if I don't see you like a literati, I don't want to rent out this house." ”

The man's surname is Pan, and his single name is Liang.

Pan Liang took Su Yang and Yan Ruyu all the way, to the front of the door, white walls and green tiles, the door lock was tightly inserted, Pan Liang opened the door, and walked in with Su Yang, the design of the house took a lot of effort, the construction is extremely exquisite, the courtyard is paved with stone surfaces, there is a huge osmanthus tree on the left, at this time it is the time when the osmanthus blooms, the courtyard is sweet and fragrant, the main hall is spacious, it is a two-story attic, in addition to the main hall, there are two rooms on the left and right, there is another door behind the main hall, straight to the backyard, the backyard is separated by a hedge, there is a vegetable field inside, there is a well not far away, the well platform is piled up, extremely beautiful, and there is a house behind it, thatched house, washing water room, utility room, there is a staircase in the backyard, which can lead to the second floor, and there is a small hall on the second floor, three shelters.

In such a house, there are five houses on the first and second floors, and there are two living rooms, a back bathroom, a kitchen, a utility room, and a vegetable patch...... It covers an area of about 300 square meters.

"Go out from here, walk along the alley to the east for thirty zhang, you can get to the street, that place is prosperous, go to the west for sixteen zhang, is the osmanthus alley, are some of the omnivorous, live here, not too deserted, not too lively, the end is a good place. ”

Pan Liang introduced to Su Yang.

Su Yang turned around in it, couldn't find any thorns, and asked, "Why don't you live in such a good place?"

When Pan Liang heard this, he smiled and said: "It's not a secret, my father has been a housekeeper in Bian Tongju's house for more than 30 years, everything in my family is arranged by Bian Tongju, and Tongju feels that my father is sincere, and he donated an official to me outside, and he is about to go to take office now......"

"Congratulations, congratulations. ”

Su Yang congratulated.

"It's all the grace of Lord Bian. ”

Pan Liang arched his hand to the East, thinking that Lord Bian was in the East.

After the room is built, it must be inhabited, otherwise a house will be easy to get troubled if it is not occupied for a long time.

Su Yang and Pan Liang agreed on the rent, gave Pan Liang fifty taels of silver, and the two of them wrote a certificate, pressed their fingerprints, and rented the house.

Pan Liang handed the key to Su Yang and said, "Actually, there are a group of scoundrels in our vicinity, who are quite arrogant, but if you rent it from me, they won't dare to touch you at all, so you can rest assured that you can live here." ”

Su Yang said yes with a smile, took the key, and Yan Ruyu rented a house, and the two went to the street together to buy a set of things for food and clothing.

Jinling City is prosperous, and this kind of food and clothing to be purchased is not lacking here, and there is everything.

When the two of them were shopping, they walked on Dongmian Street, and when they came back, they walked on Osmanthus Hutong.

Osmanthus Hutong is full of masters for many years, and when Su Yang and Yan Ruyu came back, they smelled all kinds of smells, intertwined with each other, and created a world atmosphere.

"Uncle, come and drink a bowl of water. ”

A man wearing a blue round-necked robe, a square scarf on his head, and a scribe's dress, arrived in front of a tea stall, sprinkled a few copper plates, and asked the tea stall master to pour tea for him.

"Okay. ”

The tea stall master is only in his twenties, with a scarf on his head, a knee-length shirt, a pair of trousers underneath, his legs and feet are tightly tied, and he is stepping on a pair of cloth shoes, and he gets up and scoops out hot water in a large urn, yellow, orange, and orange, and the smell should be chrysanthemum osmanthus.

Scooped a bowl and handed it to the man, who sat on the tea table next to him, waiting for the tea to cool before drinking.

The owner of the tea stall did not take the man's money, put all the money in front of the man, and said: "You came just in time, my words here were ripped off by a scoundrel surnamed Zhang a few days ago, you just write me another word, the tea fee is not needed, and I will send you a pen fee tomorrow." ”

The man shook the tea bowl and replied slightly.

"Bring us two bowls too. ”

Su Yang put down his things and sat on the table on the other side of the tea stall with Yan Ruyu, and the tea stall master saw that there were another guest, so he gave up the man and hurriedly scooped two bowls and brought them up.

Su Yang happened to be thirsty, but whether it was hot or not, he took two sips of it.

Chrysanthemums, osmanthus, and rock sugar in them.

Frowning, Su Yang asked the owner of the tea stall and said, "Where did you get the water that you use for tea, which is not like ordinary water?"

"The guest officer is amazing. ”

The owner of the tea stall sat in front of the stall and said with a smile: "My water is not the length of the earth, but the sky." ”

From heaven?

"Rain, snow?"

Su Yang asked, these are these two kinds of water from the sky, Su Yang has tasted the rain of this world, and there is still some difference between it and tea, so he has a guess of snow water.

"Hahahaha......"

The owner of the tea stall said with a smile: "Guest officer, listen well, as soon as my water comes, it is difficult to eliminate it during the day, it is difficult at dusk, day after day, endlessly, endlessly, endlessly, the small people accumulate food to live, the big officials drink and talk, the dew flows and the incense, and it can eliminate the disease and bones......"

"Plum rain. ”

Su Yang said with a smile.

Once the rainy season arrives in the south, the rain is endless, and some people will store the water during the rainy season for tea drinking, such as Miaoyu in the Dream of Red Mansions, and the plum rain used for drinking tea.

The rainy season is moist and sweet, and it is naturally interesting to use it to make tea.

"That's right!"

The owner of the tea stall clapped his hands and said with a smile: "The guest officer should not be from our side, my tea stall has been here for more than ten years, and everyone who comes to drink tea knows that this is plum water, and those who come to drink tea are also in the name of plum rain." ”

"I was in Yangzhou before. ”

Su Yang replied: "I just rented Pan Liang's house today, and I will often come to drink tea in the future...... I see you're only in your twenties, why are you in your tea stall for more than ten years?"

The owner of the tea stall naturally knew Pan Liang, who was the leader of their part, and when he heard that Su Yang was renting in Pan Liang's house, the boss smiled at Su Yang, and when he heard Su Yang ask, he said: "What's so strange about this, I came to make tea when I was ten years old." ”

In this era, there was no compulsory education, and children were all raised from childhood, and many people followed their parents when they were just sensible, which was not surprising.

"Jinling is really talented here. ”

Su Yang sighed: "I am in Yangzhou, I feel that the literary atmosphere is prosperous, the scholars there love to chant poems against each other, the rhyme is neat, and there is something to say, I didn't expect that in Jinling, the literary atmosphere is better, and ordinary people will also have some poems." ”

When the boss heard Su Yang's praise, he laughed, and he didn't even dare to speak, and said: "I have also listened a lot, and I slipped away, but I don't dare to compare with the talents, I am just blind, and I can't even write a word......

At this time, the literacy rate was simply not comparable to that of modern times, and there were too many illiterates.

"Alas......"

Su Yang sighed at this, looked at the tea stall owner, did not dwell on the topic of suitable talents, and asked, "You have been here for so many years, do you know which pharmacy is the best?"

According to Sun Li's ability, if she is in the pharmacy, she must be the best, so she will definitely be able to find Sun Li with the best name.

"This ......"

The owner of the tea stall was stunned, and after a long time, he said: "You say which pharmacy is the best, this is really not enough, I heard the guests here say that the pharmacy can cure the disease, and those who can cure the disease should be good pharmacy, just like Dr. Guo at the mouth of our alley, he is generous and the asking price is not high." The people who are close to him are all there to see a doctor, and they are also caught by hand, and the medicine is cured. ”

"Oh......"

Su Yang sighed, Doctor Guo Su Yang has seen it, he is a good doctor with experience, he sees patients accurately, understands pharmacology, and prepares drugs regardless of prescriptions, he can definitely be called a good doctor, but he can't compare to Sun Li's kind of fairy doctor.

"I'm leaving. ”

The man sitting at another table at the tea stall got up, said to the owner of the tea stall, and was about to leave.

"Kim so-jae. ”

The owner of the tea stall hurriedly stopped and said, "My word ......"

"It's getting late, I still have a date, and you'll talk about it another day. ”

Jin Xiucai replied to the owner of the tea stall and hurried away.

"Alas, I ......"

The owner of the tea stall shouted a few times, looked at Jin Xiucai's hurried back, and sighed helplessly.

"His date should be important. ”

Su Yang looked at Jin Xiucai's back, even though he walked in a hurry, he still walked in a regular manner and maintained a scholarly demeanor, which made Su Yang appreciate it.

"What's important, he went to meet Qianqian of Qinhuai River. ”

The owner of the tea stall said: "Miss Qianqian has taken a fancy to him, and everyone here knows it. ”

"Isn't it more important for men and women to date?"

Su Yang smiled: "Boss, I can also write, tell me what words you want to write, and I will write it for you." ”

Hearing that he wanted to write, Su Yang had some itching, and was ready to stop this job and earn this pen fee.

"You can write, too?"

The owner of the tea stall said in surprise, looked at the sky and saw that it was getting dark, and said: "Two days ago, our scoundrel Zhang was drinking tea with me, and after drinking tea, I asked for tea money, and he began to beat me, smashed my tea stall, and destroyed my signboard...... What I'm going to write is a tea word, and after I write it, hang it on the ......"

Following the finger of the tea stall owner, Su Yang looked at it and understood, it was to write a tea word on the front and back of the pennant, and then hang it at the door as a signboard.

"It's a small thing. ”

Su Yang responded, he didn't ask why the scoundrel wanted to fight the owner of the tea stall, because the reason must be very scoundrel, and the left and right can only escape the account, and this scoundrel can run rampant here, he must have his own capital, so that he can oppress the people here.

Let the owner of the tea stall borrow pen and ink, Su Yang spread the flag on the table, stroke by stroke, and wrote two tea characters before and after the flag with blue face and red edge, with strong muscles and bones, rigorous structure, Su Yang has a stage of progress in calligraphy.

"Good!"

The owner of the tea stall shouted, even if he was illiterate, he could distinguish that this word was good, compared to Jin Xiucai's soft words, these two words looked very gentlemanly.
