Subversion of the plot [Comprehensive]

At this time, Zhu Changshu was in Qingyunguan outside the city.

Daoist Qingyun was very surprised to see his brows deeply frowned, his eyes full of glint, and his whole body gloomy and oppressive.You must know that he has known Zhu Changshu for ten years and is used to seeing him do everything according to his heart, but this is the first time he has seen him look like this.

"What is His Highness King Bin worried about?"

"Dare to ask, is there a person in this world who can connect the two worlds of yin and yang? The Buddha said, 'Three thousand worlds, are there people who cross the three thousand worlds?'"

Daoist Qingyun saw that he was concentrating on such matters, he became more puzzled, and said with a smile: "You have said it all, it is a Buddhist saying, if you want to discuss it, you can go to a great monk and ask I am a Daoist, but it is funny. As for the people who connect the two realms of Yin and Yang... Throughout the ages, there have always been a few."

"If this person has great supernatural powers, has he attained the Tao?" Zhu Changshu asked again.

"What kind of supernatural power? After all, he is still a mortal. People who have attained Taoism and become immortals have long been ranked in the immortal class, so how can they be used in the world to deal with the world." Qingyun Daoist thought where he heard the story again, and thought in his heart If there is a suspicion, try to resolve it for him.Although these remarks are suspected of being joking, they are also common sense. After all, Taoist Master Qingyun has never known such a person.

"That's why it's more interesting..." Zhu Changshu thought of Tao Shuobai's behavior and words and deeds that night, the corners of his mouth were raised slightly, dark clouds surged in his eyes, and a trace of desire that had been suppressed for a long time was about to move in his heart.

As the so-called illness comes like a mountain, Ping An's illness is so fierce that it took more than half a month on and off to recover.Although the illness is cured, the person is getting thinner and thinner. In addition, the doctor said that he has lost his body and needs tonic.

Seeing that she ate better than Shi Niang every day, Ping An felt ashamed. She had already been favored by Shi Niang, but now she was tired of taking care of Shi Niang, and she had to spend the old-age money that Shi Niang had saved so hard. She really didn't know what to do. grateful.Li Jia didn't pay much attention to these trivial matters, and didn't know the daily expenses of Ping An, but he knew that Shi Niang valued Ping An, and he didn't have any objections to it.Pingan sighed and sighed at this, Li Jia really cannot be said to be a bad person, even if he lost Shi Niang in the end, he was not a lucky person from the beginning.

During these days of recuperation, Ping An even thought about taking this opportunity to hold back Li Jia and prevent the two from returning home...

At this time, Shi Niang was discussing with Li Jia in the room: "I asked the old gentleman who took the pulse today. Ping'an is young and weak, so he can't make a big tonic. He needs to warm up slowly. I'm afraid it will be difficult to do it in two or three months. Otherwise, I will definitely not be able to bear the fatigue of long-distance travel."

Li Jia hurriedly said: "Naturally, Ping'an's health is the most important thing, and we will make plans for returning home later."

Li Jia was already afraid of going home to see his parents, and just in time for Ping An to fall ill, his worries were relieved.

Shiniang knew what he was thinking, so she didn't say anything, but said: "If you come here like this, it's not good to live in someone else's house. No matter how generous and righteous Mr. Liu is, you and I can't take it for granted. I saw the small courtyard next door. It's empty, let's rent it out, three months' rent and daily expenses can be paid out, that is Mr. Liu's 150 taels of silver..."

Li Jia hurriedly said: "This is the money I borrowed, so I should naturally repay it. You and I are limited in ability now, and Brother Liu is aware of it. I am afraid that he will not accept the part you and I repay temporarily. I will come back later." When I got home, I told my parents, and I will naturally return Brother Liu's silver in full."

I talked to Liu Yuchun about this matter, Liu Yuchun knew that they were struggling and tried to persuade them to stay, but Li Jiashiniang made up his mind.The layout of the small courtyard next to it was the same as that of this side, and the rent was not very expensive. Shi Niang paid for three months in one lump sum and collected the lease documents.

Ping An secretly lamented Li Jiaguo's ignorance, he didn't know firewood, oil and salt, and he didn't care about all family expenses. He never thought that if Shiniang only had four or fifty taels of silver from his sisters, how would he dare to spend like this.The rent of the house is nothing more than that. In the Ming Dynasty, house prices were generally not high, and were controlled by the government. The house prices of such houses could not go up, but after all, they were at the feet of the emperor in the capital. There were four of them. It costs money, and that's not a small expense.In addition, the bulk of the money was spent on Ping An. Ping An saw a doctor and took medicine. Later, the supplements for health care contained ginseng.

Don't look at Ping An's mouth is quiet, but she is angry in her heart. She was very self-reliant in her previous life. She worked to support her family after graduating from university. Later, she became the boss of a company by herself. The idea of ​​eating for nothing.Now that she is allowed to eat for free and spend so much money, she doesn't feel happy at all, and she always thinks about how to pay off her debts.

It's really not that she wants to make a clear distinction with Shi Niang. A person who has never owed money suddenly owes a huge debt of favor. The burden on her heart is very difficult.What's more, she has been reduced from being a self-reliant person to being supported by others, which also makes her feel very insecure.

Ping An wants to make money, but his eyes are darkened, and he doesn't know what to do.

Doing business also requires capital, not to mention that Shi Niang is determined to go back to her hometown with Li Jia, so she is not willing to show her face in public to make a living.

Once she recovered from her illness, she refused to be idle anymore, and she couldn't do anything else, but cleaned up the yard and specially cleaned up the kitchen.Her cooking skills are not bad, and she took over the work in the kitchen. Seeing that she made a promise, Shi Niang made up for the daily necessities, rice, oil and salt, and saw that she really cooked a delicious meal. She was not only relieved, but also moved. .

These days, Shi Niang is often thinking about the future. At that time, marrying a wife also depended on virtue, character and skill. Needless to say, Shi Niang's appearance and temperament are good, but in other aspects...

Shi Niang has self-knowledge, and she can predict the difficulties in the future, but she is not timid and shrinks back. She has taken the most difficult step of becoming a good person, and the rest is nothing.All the things I learned in the courtyard were put aside for a while, but I started to learn about female reds. She has a gentle temperament and can sit still. She has the talent to learn, but she has no one to teach her. She has to explore on her own, and the progress can be imagined .Seeing that Ping'an has good cooking skills now, if she wants to learn it, it is her heart to make a soup for Li Jia, or to add a dish to his parents' dinner table at Li Jia's house.

How can Pingan not know her mind, but he doesn't point it out, and teaches her seriously.

It's a pity that Shi Niang, who was always on the sidelines, was dumbfounded. It's really not easy to cook. After a few days of tossing around, she didn't get any results. Instead, she scalded her hands with two blisters.

Seeing this, Li Jia was very distressed, and advised her: "I know that Shi Niang learned to cook because of me, but Shi Niang should also take care of herself. From now on, I will leave the kitchen to Ping An, and you can make me a dress." .”

Shi Niang was really depressed, and seeing him relieved again, she had to stop thinking about learning how to cook.

This day, Ping An went to the kitchen again, made two small snacks, gave one to Shi Niang, and put the other in a basket, saying that he was going out for a trip.

Ten Niang was a little absent-minded, and she responded with a sound, her mind had already drifted away.

Seeing this, Pingan sighed again.Yesterday Liu Yuchun came and said that he met a fellow countryman who came to Beijing with a letter from Li Jia's father, and Li Jia went to the inn where that person was staying early this morning to get the letter.The Li family has always objected to Li Jia's lingering in the flowers and being obsessed with famous prostitutes, and even asked Li Jia to suspend his studies at the Imperial College and go home early.

He went out safely, and found Taoji paper goods shop according to his memory.

It was thanks to the owner of this house that she was able to survive on Ghost Festival night. She was supposed to come to thank her the next day, but because she was ill, she delayed going out until now.She is also penniless, so she can't buy any decent gifts, so she can only make two dim sums to show her heart.

Standing in front of the shop door, he took a deep breath.

For that mysterious son, Ping An is grateful and even more in awe.

Entering the shop, Ping An noticed that the shop was slightly different from the first time he came back, and the shocking layout was still the same, but all the realistic paper figurines had been replaced, just like the "customers" in the shop had been replaced. generally.After all, Ping An came here for something, so he only took a quick glance and saw that the gloomy shopkeeper was still standing behind the counter without saying a word, so he stepped forward and gave a salute.

"Dare to ask the shopkeeper, is your boss here?"

Uncle Mu recognized Ping'an at a glance, and thinking of his young master's words to him, he secretly asked about it, and got a reply from the young master, so he replied: "Young master is in the backyard."

Seeing that he only raised his hand to point to the door, and then ignored him, Ping An couldn't help feeling that the shopkeeper had a temper.Suddenly, my heart moved, thinking that the boss is not an ordinary person, and the shopkeeper has such a temperament and expression, I'm afraid...he is not a normal person, right?This is another cardboard store...

Ping An, who was poisoned by various TV dramas, felt guilty for nothing for a while, and all kinds of speculation made her face look wonderful.

Passing through the door curtain, there is a shadow wall in front of you. Bypassing the screen wall, the tranquility of the flowers and trees in front of you is really shocking.There was no one around Ping An, so she followed the cross path in the middle and walked to the small rockery in the center. The dense vines on the rockery bore a few clusters of bright red fruits, which were really cute. She took a second look and felt that the tip of her nose There is a faint and cold fragrance, which penetrates directly into the lungs.

Bypassing the rockery, I was surprised.

There is a hibiscus plant behind the rockery. The hibiscus is in flowering period, and the trees are full of beautiful light pink, swaying and colorful, adding excitement to this elegant small courtyard full of green.There is a pair of tables and chairs under the tree, and there is a cup of tea on the small table, while Tao Shuobai, who is dressed in a plain white robe, is holding a book in one hand, looking at her with a pair of eyes that seem to know everything.

Pingan suppressed his heart palpitations, and saluted respectfully: "Thank you for saving me that night, sir. I should have come to thank you earlier, but I was frightened and fell ill that night, and I am really ashamed for the delay. I hope you will not be surprised. I am fine. As a thank you gift, these are two snacks made by myself, and I hope you will accept it."

Even if she came to thank her sincerely, such a humble gesture still made Pingan deeply moved, but she really didn't have the capital to be equal to others.

Tao Shuobai saw that the dim sum she placed on the case looked good.

Ping An said, "This is crystal cake, one is mint flavored and the other is red bean flavored."

"Well, thank you." Tao Shuobai and Ping An had nothing to say, but they accepted the things.Tao Shuobai tasted a piece of red bean crystal cake, the craftsmanship was good, the red beans were boiled just right, and the crystal cake was also tender and refreshing.After eating two yuan in a row, he raised his eyes to look at Ping An, and suddenly asked, "Is there anything else?"

This is purely a question, but to Ping An, it sounds like chasing a guest, and he is suddenly full of embarrassment. It can be seen that the other party's expression is natural, and it is really just a casual question.It was the first time for Ping An to meet such a businessman who was not good at speaking and responding, but he felt that this was the true temperament and no hypocrisy.

Ping An really has nothing to say, she can feel that the person in front of her is cold and distant, not a person who is good at making friends.She was not used to being humbled and flattered, so she planned to say goodbye and leave.

As soon as she turned around, she saw a young man walking out from behind the rockery, with a clear smile on his face, but those eyes swept over her, which made her feel chills down her spine.
