for evil

I don’t know when a young man lived in Longbow Lane in the north of Sheyang City. That young man often wore a green long gown. , please take care of me in the future." The soft eyebrows and gentle outline make people unconsciously want to get close.

Aunt Mei, who had lived in Longbow Lane for ten years, was living opposite the young master, and was the first to greet the young master.Aunt Mei smiled warmly at the young master: "No matter where, since they all live in Longbow Lane, they are all neighbors. Needless to say polite words, distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. We will take care of each other from now on." Aunt Mei said, When they met for the first time, they generously brought a basket of home-dried persimmons to the young master: "Young master, these are our home-made persimmons, just for you to try."

The young master took it with a smile, and presented a bottle of tea: "This is the tea I brought from my hometown, you can try it too."

Aunt Mei took the tea leaves and grinned from ear to ear: "My family likes to drink tea the most." Putting away the tea leaves, Aunt Mei inquired about the origin of the young master: "Where is the young master from?"

The young master said: "I am used to wandering and have no fixed place. I can't tell where I am from. Since I came to Sheyang, I will be regarded as a Sheyang person."

Aunt Mei smiled and said, "Master, you must be a scholar at first glance, right? You scholars speak nicely. I just like scholars! There are two children in my family, one has already entered school, and the other is about to enter school. We are used to being rough in this life. It’s like helping my son to read and write, maybe in the future he will be the No. [-] scholar in the exam and come back to honor his ancestors. It just so happens that the young master is here, if possible, I hope the young master will not think my two noisy people, and teach them."

The young master has gentle eyebrows and eyes: "Naturally."

Aunt Mei was in full bloom, and happily returned to the house.

From then on, in front of the young master's door, there were two more children who were rushing around and poking around.

The son had a lot of books, and he never refused the two children's requests to borrow books, and even opened the books in the children's hands, pointing them out word by word.

Aunt Mei's two children are both boys, one named Xiao Ke and the other Xiao Lian.When Aunt Mei talked about the origin of this name, her expression was unpredictable, embarrassing and ridiculous: "In the second year after Xiao Lian was born, my family was conscripted to fight in the war, and there was no news for five years. Crying day and night, thinking that I would never see my family again. The eldest child and the second child lost their father at such a young age. It is so pitiful, so I named them such a name. I never thought that in the sixth year, my family would die I came back and lost a leg, but fortunately I am still alive. It is much better than I imagined." Aunt Mei was quite satisfied: "Although my husband has no legs and has limited mobility, he is good at making wine. Let's make wine together and sell it to the tavern. It's not hard to come and go. If you want to drink it, you can just move it in our courtyard."

The young master said: "No wonder this alley is full of the smell of wine, which has a special flavor."

Aunt Mei laughed: "Our alley is full of craftsmen. The first door to the north is Lao Li's. His home-made noodle making skills are the best in Sheyang County; there is also this one in the south. He is a tailor with great skills; the Axiong family in the second north is the most enthusiastic. He is a boatman with great strength. He often helps me transport wine to the tavern. If you need anything, you can talk to him; This family is a scholar, maybe I can chat with the young master."

The young master nodded: "Thank you for your advice."

After slowly getting along for more than half a year, the neighbors and neighbors have become very friendly, chickens and dogs hear each other, the alleys are fragrant, and the son's life is quite stable.

Xiao Ke Xiao Lian sat on the table and chair in front of the young master's courtyard, watching the young master write down the names of the two people stroke by stroke, and then copied them carefully.Xiao Lian had better move, lightly licked the tip of the pen, and got a mouthful of ink.He tilted his head and asked the young master: "How should I write the name of the gentleman?"

The young master looked at Xiao Lian's mouth, smiled helplessly, wiped Xiao Lian carefully, grabbed Xiao Lian's hand, and wrote two small characters "Mu Qing" on his fingers.

Xiao Ke also came over, looked at the two words on the paper, and clapped his hands: "It's so beautiful, and it sounds good too!"

In the middle of the month, Aunt Mei bought new rice for wine making. Mu Qing and the boatman A Xiong helped to carry it back to Longbow Lane. Aunt Mei’s mouth likes to chat the most, and she never stopped along the way. Mu Qing and A Xiong smiled listen to.

Suddenly, Mu Qing stopped, stopped at the same spot, and looked back suddenly, there was nothing but smoke in the alley, white walls and blue tiles.Mu Qing turned around, but before regaining consciousness, Aunt Mei asked him: "What's wrong?"

Mu Qing shook her head suddenly: "No, you heard it wrong." He stepped forward and continued to move forward.

Back in Aunt Mei's courtyard, her man, propping up his crutches, had slowly tidied up the wine jar, and said to Aunt Mei with a smile, "You're back?

I have also tidied up here, a total of [-] jugs of wine, which are what the tavern needs this month, and they can be delivered the next day. "

Aunt Mei nodded: "I said wait until I come back, you are in a hurry." Then she turned to Mu Qing and A Xiong and said, "I steamed the steamed buns today, you each take some, this trip has worked hard for you."

Mu Qing and Axiong tried to evade it several times, but finally accepted it with disrespect.

At night, when the candles were extinguished, the wind outside was very noisy. Mu Qing didn't fall asleep, she listened to the sound of the wind and thought about the sound of the wind blowing, but was suddenly taken aback, quickly got out of bed and ran to the window to open it, Only the shadow of the tree without him.

Mu Qing closed the window lightly, rubbed the center of her brows: "You got it wrong again."

Early the next morning, before he left the hospital, he heard Aunt Mei's angry voice: "You said you didn't steal the wine! You came out last night, and your father couldn't drink because of his illness! Tell me! Is it the two of you?" Who stole it?"

When Mu Qing opened the door, she saw two little faces opposite him who were wronged and tearful.

Seeing Mu Qing coming out, Xiao Ke and Xiao Lian quickly hid behind Mu Qing.

Aunt Mei furiously chased after her: "Don't think that I dare not touch you because you are hiding behind your husband. Who did you learn from? You even learned how to steal wine?"

The two voices behind me felt aggrieved: "We didn't..."

Mu Qing asked: "What's going on?"

Aunt Mei said: "When I woke up early this morning, I found that three of the twenty jars of wine in our yard were empty. I locked the door last night, and this has never happened before. They must have done something good. , Maybe it’s because the wine was knocked over and I dare not say it! The tavern will order it tomorrow, and three jars are missing for no reason, how can I explain this!”

Mu Qing said: "If the two of them overturned and dare not tell, then there should be alcohol smell on them or in the yard, but now it seems that Xiaoke Xiaolian doesn't have it on him, maybe there is something else hidden. The three altars are empty Where is it?"

Aunt Mei led Mu Qing into the yard, pointed to the three crumbling wine jars: "Look!"

Mu Qing took a closer look, but smiled.

Aunt Mei was puzzled: "What did you see?"

Mu Qing shook her head, but still smiled to herself: "I just think this thief is too unkind. After drinking other people's wine, he refuses to pay for it. It's really unkind."

Aunt Mei said: "That's right, this thief stole the wine and brought it home!" Aunt Mei sighed: "Oh, I have to pay the wine tomorrow, I'll see if there is no way to remedy it!"

Mu Qing said: "I still have a few jars of sweet-scented osmanthus wine brewed by myself that can be unsealed tomorrow. Why don't I add four jars to you, three jars for business, and one jar for you to drink?"

Aunt Mei said, "That's fine, I just need to trouble you, sir."

Mu Qing said: "No."

On the second day, Mu Qing sent four altars of wine to Aunt Mei, but Aunt Mei thanked Aunt Mei for taking it, and said to Mu Qing excitedly: "It's really strange that the thief is really right today. Just left some pieces of silver in those empty wine jars, which is also a miracle."

Mu Qing curled her lips: "Wouldn't that be great."

Aunt Mei said, "Did the thief hear what Mr. said yesterday?"

Mu Qing just smiled and said nothing.

On the third day, something happened to Aunt Mei again.Aunt Mei held an empty wine jar and a piece of silver annoyedly and said to Mu Qing: "Sir, that thief has come again, drank the jar of wine you gave me, and left a piece of silver."

Mu Qing pushed the money to Aunt Mei: "Since you've given it, keep it!"

Aunt Mei said, "It's Mister's wine, so naturally Mister should take it."

Mu Qing said: "No need, I will give you two more altars."

Aunt Mei struggled to evade: "I've been thieves recently, if I get drunk by that thieve again, I'll be really sorry sir."

Mu Qing smiled and took a step forward, lowering her voice to Aunt Mei: "This time, one jar will be disposed of in the courtyard, and the other jar will be kept in the house for you to drink."

Aunt Mei dubiously followed suit.

In the evening, Mu Qing took out the three jars of wine in the courtyard of the house and looked around, but there was nothing unusual.

But Mu Qing said in a loud voice: "Thieves who steal wine, if you want to drink, you can get it here, don't keep staring at other people's wine." After finishing speaking, he turned and went into the house.

The courtyard was quiet, but before a cup of tea, a black shadow entered the courtyard wall. The black shadow stood in front of the three jars of wine and stopped for a moment, then looked in the direction of the house, and finally sighed. Climbing out of the wall, he entered the courtyard wall of Aunt Mei's house with swift movements, and picked up the jar of sweet-scented osmanthus wine in the courtyard.

Soon, in a corner of Longbow Lane, there was a black shadow coughing and scratching the wall, muttering: "...cough... who did you learn to be so poisonous? You actually add chili to wine...cough cough cough ..."
