Unparalleled Concubine

After settling down, Li Xin poured a basin of hot water, wiped the charcoal seller's face, then called the charcoal seller aside, and said softly, "Girl, you are here to take care of grandpa, brother goes out to find grandpa... When the doctor comes back, don’t turn around here, close the door, and don’t open the door unless I call you.”

The little girl nodded heavily.

She is only six years old this year, and she doesn't have any ideas of her own. In the past, her grandpa was her heaven, but now her grandpa's sky has fallen, so she can only trust Li Xin as her "brother".

After Li Xin explained a few more words, he put all the money in his pocket on his body, thought for a while, took the ingot of silver with him, and pushed open the door.

In this era, there is a strict curfew at night, but the curfew does not mean that you cannot go out. The curfew means that you are not allowed to go out of your respective workshops. The workshops of this era are similar to a living area, which is larger than the communities of later generations I don't know how many times, at night, as long as you don't go to the street outside the square, there is no problem walking in the square.

At this time, although the sky had already dimmed, there were still many people walking around in the workshop. Li Xin walked in the workshop, took a few deep breaths, calmed down, and began to ask someone for the location of the medical center.

Chapter 11 Retaliation Hopeful

After please come back to the doctor, the doctor just prescribed a simple prescription, then charged Li Xin several hundred texts for consultation, and then left.

In fact, the injuries suffered by the charcoal seller were not serious, they were just some skin traumas. There was no need to drink medicine for such skin traumas. God's prescription.

The next morning, in the backyard of the inn, Li Xin was thinking about what happened yesterday while making medicine.

First of all, one thing that is certain is that the people from the Hou Mansion did not intend to kill themselves. If they wanted to die by themselves, it couldn't be easier.

Judging from the words of that big man today, it is estimated that they simply want to get out of the capital.

Li Xin closed his eyes, thinking a lot in his mind.

To be honest, he is not a person with a bad temper. If the person from the Pingnanhou Mansion approached him and told him in a nice voice, give him another sum of money, maybe he would take the money I left the capital in a hurry. After all, in this era, living in any city is the same. Maybe you can live a more nourishing life if you leave the capital.

However, that Pingnanhou Mansion... chose to force it.

Li Xin opened his eyes and muttered to himself while adding firewood under the medicine jar.

"You guys, you've done too much..."

It is understandable for Li Xin to cut off the business of Deyi Building, but it is too much to set fire to this wooden house. This wooden house does not belong to Li Xin, and the old man just ended up like this because he took Li Xin in.

Something had to be done.

But the most important thing now is to find a house to live in. Otherwise, living in an inn every day will not be a problem. The house went.

Jiankang City is the capital of the Jin Dynasty, and the land price in the city is very expensive, so the houses are naturally sold at a high price. When the house price rises, renting a house will not be cheap.

With the help of Yaxing, Li Xin successfully found a small courtyard in Datongfang in the south of the capital. It said it was a courtyard, but in fact there were only three houses, and the objects inside were still very simple, but fortunately, the house was still complete. There is no place for air leakage, and it can be regarded as a place where you can spend the winter.

The rent is two bucks a month.

To be honest, Datongfang is located in the south city of Jiankang, and it is also one of the few places farthest from the imperial city, and it is not close to the Qinhuai River. It's a little higher.

But now Li Xin urgently needed a place to live, and he didn't care about the money, so he simply agreed. After paying the rent for two months, Li Xin moved in with the old man and the little girl.

Although this small yard is not very big, there is still an advantage, that is, the previous tenant has just moved out, and everything in the yard is still complete, so Li Xin doesn't need to buy too many things.

However, the iron pots in the kitchen, as well as wooden basins and other things, were taken away. Ironware in this era is still very expensive. A new one, when you move, you will carry the iron pot on your back.

After the grandparents and grandchildren settled down, Li Xin first bought some food and came back, then squatted down, patted the little girl on the shoulder, and said softly: "You are here to take care of grandpa, brother went out to buy some things and came back, we Just come here, you must not go out."

The little girl was a little timid at this time when she encountered a big change, so she nodded obediently when she heard this.

"Brother, you should also be careful."

Li Xin nodded with a smile, and walked out of the courtyard. Before leaving, he hesitated and locked the courtyard door.

He wasn't sure if the people from the Pingnanhou's Mansion had discovered that he had entered the capital, but as long as the door was locked, even if the people from the Pingnanhou's Mansion found it, they would probably think that there was no one in the house.

Besides, even if people from the Pingnanhou Mansion found out here, they would never dare to burn down houses in the capital.

Li Xin walked from Datongfang all the way to Beicheng. Since the imperial city faces south, the more it went north, the more prosperous it was. When it reached Desheng Avenue, it was already a bustling scene of people coming and going. Li Xin First, I went to the blacksmith's shop to buy an iron pot, then I bought some firewood, rice, oil, salt and other things, and then I went to a cotton cloth store to buy two quilts, and then I started walking south of the city with a big cloth bag on my back.

This cloth bag weighs several tens of catties, and it is very difficult to carry it on the back.

It was already afternoon at this time, and the people on the street were much sparser, only some children after school were playing and playing on the street, and a group of little dolls were singing nursery rhymes in groups.

"Laba porridge, drink for a few days, mili la la 23."

……

"29, steaming steamed buns, staying up overnight at [-], walking all over the street on the first and second day of the new year..."

It is already the twelfth lunar month at this time, and the end of the year is approaching. What children look forward to most in a year is to eat meat during the New Year, so they naturally start singing nursery rhymes about the New Year.

Li Xin also sang this kind of song when he was a child. At first he didn't think much of it, but after listening to it, he suddenly stopped and turned his attention to these children.

The wooden house he lived in was burned down, and the person who started it was the Jingzhao Mansion in the capital. There was no reason for this matter, because the highest government office he had access to was the Jingzhao Mansion, and it was impossible for him to be alone. Common people, going to sue the government with the people, this is undoubtedly an act of death.

Now, he seemed to see some hope of taking revenge on Pingnanhou's mansion.

But now is definitely not the time, after all, the little girl is still waiting at home, Li Xin wrapped the cloth on his back tightly, and continued to walk towards the south of the city.

The old man kindly rescued Li Xin, and then took him in, but in the end he made himself homeless. No matter what, Li Xin must settle the grandparents and grandchildren, at least let them live better than before. better.

When it was almost evening, Li Xin finally returned to the small yard. He first went to the kitchen, put the iron pot that he had bought with a "huge amount of money" on the stove, and then waved to the little girl. She smiled and said, "Girl, come and light the fire, brother will make you something delicious."

The little girl nodded happily, and quickly started to light a fire in the stove.

She would have helped her grandfather burn charcoal, and making a fire is the best skill. After a while, a vigorous flame was born under the stove. The little girl looked up at Li Xin, and found that Li Xin had poured half of it into the pot in one breath. Bowl of oil.

The charcoal girl's eyes widened.

She had a bad life in the past, and it would be nice to have something to eat, usually sorghum noodles or some coarse rice, and there was hardly any oil or water in it, but now this big brother actually poured so much oil into it in one go ...

In this world, there is no such thing as stir-frying. It is generally "cooking" and then adding a few drops of oil.

Therefore, when the charcoal girl ate her first dish of stir-fried vegetables, she was about to shed tears.

The little girl filled a bowl of rice, filled it with vegetables, and brought it to her grandfather excitedly.

"Grandpa, it's time to eat..."

Chapter 12

"The twelfth lunar month, the twelfth lunar month, Beishan Fox Hunting Fairy."

………………

"The fox fairy got angry and set fire to half the sky."

This is a jingle about hunting a fox fairy. It is about someone going hunting in Beishan, digging the cave of the fox fairy, and burning the tree hole where he hid, but in the end, the fox fairy escaped, and the angry fox In a rage, Xian set fire to half of Beishan.

I don't know when, such a fluent ballad began to spread in the capital. At first, it was only a few yellow-mouthed children in Nancheng who were clamoring about it, but after a long time, it began to spread slowly. Firstly, because these children in the capital are too boring and lack of entertainment, such a song that is easy to read and has a story, is naturally liked by others.
