Chang'an City is very large, as people often say, the sun rises in the east and rains in the west, reflecting all kinds of faces in the world.

Whether it is the most well-dressed nobleman or the most ragged beggar, whether it is the foreign trader hawking along the street, or the blonde drunk who falls on the side of the street, whether it is a famous scholar in Guanzhong, or a wanderer in a foreign land. Here, you can always find something different, talking about something you may not have heard before.

On this day, the weather in Chang'an City South Street is sunny, people come and go on the street, and the shops on both sides of the street are also lively. The shops are busy and busy. His face was beaming with joy, and he should be thinking in his heart about how many taels of silver would be credited to the account at the end of this day.

A figure in a gray robe led a child eating candy through the alley, without causing too many waves, until the two stopped in front of a cake shop, and a woman rushed out of the shop, hugged the child and said.

"Child, my child, where the hell have you gone, you are in a hurry to die!"

The little boy who was hugged was stunned at first, and then took the candy man in his hand and smiled knowingly and said.

"I went to the outskirts of the city to pick fruits, and I wanted to pick them for my mother to eat, but the fruits were too sour, so I lost them. ”

"It's okay, it's okay. The woman let go of the child with red eyes, stretched out her hands and rubbed his face twice, but suddenly her face turned pale, and she slapped the child's head lightly, glaring at the red and swollen eyes, and scolding.

"Next time I run around outside, I'll break your leg for my mother, you know?"

The child's face turned pale with fright, and he hurriedly nodded and said.

"I remembered it, and I won't dare to do it again. ”

Li Si stood aside, looking at the mother and son who changed their faces faster than turning the book, and smiled bitterly and did not rush to speak.

Until the woman stood up, bowed deeply to him, and said.

"Thank you so much this time, sir, my family lost a husband in the early years, if I lose this child again this time, I really don't know what to do. ”

"It's nothing, it's just a gesture. Li Si waved his hand helplessly: "Don't let this kid run away in the future, when I went just now, he almost fell off the tree, but fortunately he grabbed a branch, so nothing happened." ”

The woman was frightened for a moment, while the children next to her laughed.

"Mother, Mr. is amazing, the tall tree jumped up as soon as he jumped, and picked a lot of fruit for me!"

"How dare you say that!" the woman glared again.

Frightened, the child immediately shrank his head, lowered his head and ate the candy man that Li Si bought for him in his hand.

"Thank you so much, sir. The woman sighed and patted her chest with palpitations, thinking that if something happened to the child, she would not want to live anymore.

"Here is the agreed five taels of silver, please accept it. ”

As she spoke, the woman took out a few pieces of broken silver from her waist and handed them to Li Si.

"In this case, then you are welcome, if there is anything else you need to help in the future, you can come to me. Laundry and cooking, chopping wood and lighting fires, catching cats and dogs, catching birds and fishing, teaching wrongdoers, or decorating the courtyard needs manpower, I have done it all. ”

Li Si took over the silver tael, and by the way, he promoted his own business.

There's no way, the family is full of ten people, and the daily expenses are not a small amount, and the money earned now is only enough to barely survive.

"Uh-huh, uh-huh······" Looking at Li Si's professional smile, the woman's face turned red.

Sure enough, this gentleman is as rumored to say, he is really handsome, with red lips and white teeth, and he doesn't know how old he is this year.

During this period, Li Si did a lot of business, although few people came to the door at the beginning, but since he did a few small things, his reputation has spread.

In the next few months, he helped the old man outside the city to repair the house, helped the young lady of the Qinglou to stop the passers-by, helped the fishermen on the riverside to catch fish, and helped the villagers in the mountains to fight tigers. Fill in the tiles on the eaves and mend the wax on the coffin boards. I accompanied my marriage when I got married, and I cried when I was at a funeral.

It can be said that he has done everything he can do, and he has done everything he can't do, so that there are a lot of rumors about him in Chang'an City today. There is a Wenlai mountain villa in the west outside the city, and the owner of the mountain villa collects money to help people, as long as you dare to say it, he dares to do anything.

In this regard, Li Si is also a little helpless, although this is to a certain extent to promote his business, but he doesn't do everything, even if his bottom line is very low, but he is not without a bottom line, right?

After saying hello to the woman, Li Si left by himself, Chang'an Chengnan Street is really not far from Wenlai Villa, a total of only a few miles away, it takes at most half a day to walk over, and it doesn't even take an hour to take a car.

As for the small city at the foot of Wenlai Villa, it is almost connected to Chang'an City, which can be regarded as a partial city of Chang'an City, and there are several such small places near Chang'an City.

Because it is not far away, Li Si is going to go shopping for a while and then go back, buy some meat by the way, and open meat for those little ones in the evening.

There were a lot of people on the street, and the sound was chaotic. So much so that Li Si didn't notice that not far behind him, a woman in a military uniform and carrying a wine jug was standing there, looking at his back, frowning slightly.

"Li Si?" Su Hongluo blushed drunkly, looked at the figure who had not gone far in surprise, and looked down at the wine jug in his hand.

I should, I'm not drunk.

After shaking his head and making sure that he was still sober, Su Hongluo's face finally put a smile on his face.

Interesting, I just returned to Chang'an, and I can meet you when I come out for a drink.

We're really fated, Li Gongzi.

Thinking like this, Su Hongluo glanced at the cake shop that Li Si had just walked out of, burped a wine, carried the wine jug in his hand, and walked in slowly with a figure-eight general step.

······

"So, you're trying to ask where the gentleman is from?" said the woman at the bakery, holding her child, looking at the "drinker" in front of her with some confusion.

"Yes. Su Hongluo leaned on the side of the shop, her thin eyes narrowed slightly, and she took out a tael of silver from her arms and put it on the table.

"A certain family is here, so I thanked my sister first. ”

······

On the second day, Li Si stood in the kitchen cooking meat, and the greedy sixth and seventh were lying by the window fighting for who would eat the first piece first.

At this time, the second Lian Qing walked in with a casual face, leaned against the door with his hands and looked at Li Si and said.

"Sir, there's a woman looking very bad outside the door looking for you, have you caused some kind of affair?"
