Scumbag Master Uncle's Whitewashing Road

After walking bitterly all night, I finally found a small town at dawn.

The town is called Caisang Town, and it is not too big. The people in the town make a living by raising silkworms and weaving brocade, so they are considered rich.Huo Qingfeng had nowhere to live and was penniless. After thinking about it for a long time, he still didn't sell the bracelet. Instead, he found a deserted house that didn't cost any money, tidied it up a bit, and settled down temporarily.

Huo Qingfeng has no research on sericulture, and he is unwilling to do part-time jobs for others, and the spiritual power in his body is not enough to form alchemy. Fortunately, there are many high mountains behind the town of picking mulberry.Huo Qingfeng went up to the mountain every day to pick some herbs and sell them to the town's pharmacy at a low price. The money he got was enough to live on, and his life was full and comfortable.

Over time, everyone in the town knew that a strange man had come to the town. He was a very young and energetic guy who lived in a deserted house in the east of the town. , with little contact with other people.

Time passed unhurriedly, and more than a month has passed in the blink of an eye.On this day, Huo Qingfeng exchanged all the money from selling medicine for delicious food, and took it home happily.The restaurant he frequents is called "Juxianlou". The owner has been an imperial chef for three generations, and the dishes are exquisite and delicious. Of course, the price is not low.Huo Qingfeng always had to save up money for several days before he could eat once.

The Stone Spirit from the other side, who couldn't eat the food, came out and said sourly: "Even if you have no cultivation base, you are still a monk who has plucked the grain, why are you still obsessed with appetite? With that money, why don't you pay for it?" Why don't you buy some clothes and dress up. With your foolish appearance, except for that blind little brother from the Mozu who treats you as a treasure, even the village girls here look down on you."

Huo Qingfeng said: "My hobby is eating, and I don't care much about what I wear."

Bian Shiling looked at his makeup in the mirror, and said disdainfully: "Even if you don't like to dress up, you should buy a few more replacement clothes. It will be cold in a few days, you wear single clothes every day, It's not like that either."

"Don't worry, there is a store in the town that sells some old clothes. You can buy several pieces for a little money." Huo Qingfeng said disapprovingly.

Hearing that he was going to buy old clothes again, Bi'an Shiling frowned contemptuously, "It's really a bumpkin who only cares about eating."

Looking at Shi Ling on the other side whose eyes hadn't left the mirror, Huo Qingfeng joked: "Of course I can't compare with your old man. You dress up beautifully every day. Unfortunately, only I can see it. It's really a waste."

"My beauty is naturally not something that ordinary people like you can appreciate." Huo Qingfeng gave Huo Qingfeng a displeased look, and Pean Shiling looked at the carved food box he was holding in his hand like a baby, and said, "Look, just look at it." Even the food box is more refined and decent than you. You just wait to be eaten into a fat pig by these worldly things." After speaking, he shook his clothes and disappeared.

Really get angry at a disagreement.Huo Qingfeng thought to himself, since leaving the Demon Race, the temper of the stone spirit on the other side has become more and more weird, picking his nose and eyes every day, and getting angry at every turn.Facing him, Huo Qingfeng always had a sense of powerlessness as a kind daughter-in-law faces an evil mother-in-law.

"Or, let's save some money and buy some decent clothes from tomorrow, so as to save him from continuing to criticize." Huo Qingfeng rubbed his nose and muttered.

On the second day, Huo Qingfeng went to the mountain early in the morning and picked a basket full of herbs. He returned to the town in the evening and took the herbs to the pharmacy to exchange for money.

This pharmacy is not as picky as the other ones, and the prices are relatively high, so Huo Qingfeng always brings herbs here.But today, the pharmacy clerk did not count the money directly as usual, but invited the pharmacy owner out.

The boss is a tall man in his early thirties with a shrewd look on his face.Huo Qingfeng thought to himself: "It's just a collection of herbs, as for asking the boss to do it himself?"

Picking up a few cordyceps and looking at them, the pharmacy owner said with satisfaction: "If I remember correctly, this Cordyceps can only be found at altitudes above 4000 meters. Looking at your thin appearance, can you climb such a high mountain with bare hands? "

"Of course I can't climb, it's just luck, and I haven't encountered many." Naturally, Huo Qingfeng would not explain so much to him, and said casually.

The boss put the caterpillar fungus back into the basket, glanced casually at the other herbs, and then said to the guy behind him, "Take them all."

I took the silver from the clerk, weighed it, and it seemed to be much heavier than the previous few days.Thinking that it might be the cause of those few cordyceps, Huo Qingfeng didn't count them in detail, and stuffed them directly into his pocket, thinking that he could last for a while and save himself the pain of climbing mountains every day.

The pharmacy owner came over with a bundle, "This is the robe I just made, and it doesn't fit very well. I think it fits your figure quite well, why don't I give it to you."

"How can this be done?" The gift came inexplicably, Huo Qingfeng subconsciously declined, and the pharmacy owner said again: "I think you behave elegantly, not like an ordinary commoner, have you ever read a book?"

Huo Qingfeng didn't know what kind of medicine he sold in the gourd, so he could only say vaguely: "I've been studying for a few years, and I'm still far behind."

"That's it." The boss smiled, turned his head and sent the buddy away, then looked at Huo Qingfeng and said, "My robe is made of the most expensive material in the capital, if it doesn't really fit and I'm too lazy to send it to the capital to change, It won’t be in vain for you. Of course, I didn’t give it away for nothing. I wonder if you can compose poetry?”

"Compose poetry?" Huo Qingfeng was taken aback.

"I would like to ask you to write me a love poem. It should be a lingering one, as long as it is pleasing to the eye..." The boss said with a slight embarrassment, his face flushed slightly.

Oh, it turned out to be an arty old hat!Judging by this posture, it is likely that some girl fell in love with her and wanted to write a poem to confess her love.Or maybe it's an oiran who has fallen in love with a brothel, and it's too vulgar to spend money, so he can only smile as a poetic beauty.Huo Qingfeng came to a realization, recalled some ancient and modern famous sentences in his mind, and immediately smiled: "This is easy to handle."

The boss was overjoyed, and immediately ordered someone to bring the four treasures of the study, and spread the paper and rubbed the ink himself.

After brewing for a while, Huo Qingfeng picked up the brush and dipped it in ink, and finished it with one stroke.

"What do you think?" Passing the written words to the pharmacy owner, although Huo Qingfeng didn't expect him to understand, he still asked casually.

"Okay, okay, okay." The pharmacy owner nodded seriously, and said with emotion: "It's really a good word! My favorite is the last sentence. If the relationship between the two lasts for a long time, how can they be in the same day and night? .”

Of course, Huo Qingfeng didn't know how to write poetry, he wrote Qin Guan's "Magpie Bridge Immortal".Seeing that the boss liked it, Huo Qingfeng cupped his hands and said, "Since you are satisfied, then I will take my leave."

"Wait." The pharmacy owner held the words written by Huo Qingfeng fondly, and still didn't forget to hand him the bag containing the clothes: "I'm afraid there will be a lot of trouble for Mr. in the future. Please accept this little thing." If you don’t want it, it’s not easy to ask Mr. for help in the future.”

It's just memorizing a poem, it's effortless, and Huo Qingfeng didn't want to take his things.Now that people have talked about this, Huo Qingfeng is no longer pretentious, and readily accepts it.

"I think you have a good literary talent, why do you want to do this physical work of picking herbs? It just so happens that the child has reached the age of school, and I don't even like the private schools in the town. I wonder if the gentleman is willing to come to my Fuzhong to teach the child?" The pharmacy owner eagerly said.

Huo Qingfeng was quite comfortable living alone, and he didn't want to be a "nanny" for a little kid, so he politely refused, "I'm not very talented, so it's really hard for me to take on such a heavy responsibility."

"That's it." The boss couldn't hide his disappointment on his face, and he didn't continue to pester, but just said: "If you change your mind, you can come to the store to find me at any time."

After resigning from the pharmacy boss, Huo Qingfeng walked all the way home.

Stone Spirit from the other side suddenly appeared, pointed at the bag and said, "Open it and see what kind of clothes it is?"

Huo Qingfeng couldn't help his nagging, so he had to unpack the bag.Inside was a brand new robe, Huo Qingfeng liked both the color and style.

Shi Ling on the other side gave him a blank look, and said: "Even a bumpkin in the mountains has more vision than you. I think your brain is used up."

"That is, that is." Huo Qingfeng ignored Shi Ling's ridicule on the other side, and smiled perfunctorily.Thinking that you already have a new dress, you save money on buying clothes.Huo Qingfeng was in a good mood, put away his clothes, hummed a little tune and went out contentedly to Juxian Building.

Huo Qingfeng's words probably really helped the pharmacy boss catch up with the girl he likes. Since then, every time Huo Qingfeng went back to the pharmacy, the boss would greet him with a smile, and either buy him wine or tea.

Although the boss is illiterate, he is very forthright. Huo Qingfeng is here alone, except for the arrogant Shi Ling, who usually has no one to talk to, and occasionally agrees to the boss' invitation.

After a long time, Huo Qingfeng somewhat knew his origin.The boss's surname is Wu, and his single name is Liu. He also just moved to Caisang Town.Because my ancestors were in the medicine business, I started my business and opened a medicine shop in the town.

The two are both foreigners, and came to Caisang Town one after the other, so naturally there are more topics to talk about.

"Mr. has a good literary talent and knows a lot. It is too dangerous to go to the mountains to collect herbs every day. I happen to be short of an accountant in my shop. If the husband can manage my accounts, the work is not heavy. It is better than working hard in the mountains. "In the private room of Juxian Building, after a few glasses of wine, Wu Liu began to persuade her again.

Huo Qingfeng is used to it, and he declined his kindness with ease: "Thank you brother Wu for your concern, I am used to being alone, and I don't want to work for others. Besides, Mr. Accountant's job of managing money is still left to the family members Brother Wu doesn't know anything about me, so if you hand over your wealth to me, aren't you afraid that I'll run away?"

"What are you talking about sir, although you and I have not known each other for a long time, but I can still trust your character." Wu Liu said: "Mr. often rejects brother's kindness, which makes brother very sad! It happens to be on the plaque in the main hall of the house. Missing the inscription, this busy, you can't refuse."

Wu Liu invited Huo Qingfeng to be a guest at home several times, but Huo Qingfeng refused with various reasons.Now it's hard to refuse, so I can only say: "I am willing to help."

Seeing that he agreed, Wu Liu was overjoyed, and immediately recruited the shop waiter to pay for the meal, and asked him to go out and hire two soft sedan chairs, and carried Huo Qingfeng to the front of his house.

Wu Mansion is a courtyard house with five entrances and five exits, which is very grand.Huo Qingfeng praised: "Brother Wu is so handy, this house is really beautiful."

"Just as long as you like it, sir." Wu Liu smiled and led Huo Qingfeng in. As soon as he entered the main hall, he heard a child's voice: "Father, you are back."

Huo Qingfeng turned around and saw a child about eight or nine years old standing behind them.

"Qing'er, this is my father's friend, why don't you hurry up and salute." Wu Liu said with a smile.

The child respectfully bowed to Huo Qingfeng, "I've seen you sir."

"Qing'er?" She actually had the same name as Leng Siqing.Huo Qingfeng looked at the child, then at Wu Liu.

Wu Liu said with a smile: "This is my son Wu Qing. He was a little shy and shy since he was a young mother, which made my husband laugh at me."

It's also a child without a mother!Huo Qingfeng's heart twitched, and he looked at Wu Qing with more pity.

"Qing'er, father and husband have something to say, you can go out and play first." Wu Liu said to Wu Qing.

Wu Qing glanced at Huo Qingfeng again, and then said obediently: "That kid will leave."

Looking at the child's back, Huo Qingfeng couldn't help but said: "The child is still young, so he can't live without his mother. Brother Wu is still young, so he never thought about marrying another wife?"

After pouring tea for Huo Qingfeng, Wu Qing said with emotion: "To tell you the truth, my brother and his wife have known each other since childhood and have a deep relationship. Apart from him, I really can't tolerate anyone else in my eyes."

Sounds like a rare breed.Huo Qingfeng thought to himself, since Fa's wife is dead, why should I help write love poems?If it's not given to other women, is it still necessary to burn it to the wife?

"Besides, how can a stepmother have a real mother!" Wu Liu said with incomparable vicissitudes: "I am busy outside all day long, and I can't take care of many things at home. If the newly married wife treats the child badly, wouldn't it be a grievance? Qing'er."

"What Brother Wu said is very true." Huo Qingfeng put himself in the shoes and thought for a while, and felt that what Wu Liu said was quite reasonable.As the saying goes, having a stepmother is equivalent to having a stepfather.If the newly married wife is a little cautious and gives birth to another son, I am afraid that there will be no room for the eldest son in the future.

"Such a good child, how could his mother have the heart to leave him behind? You are so heartless!" Wu Liu added with great sadness.

The speaker had no intention of saying it, but Huo Qingfeng seemed to have been poked in his weakness. He was speechless for a moment, and could only laugh dryly and picked up the teacup to drink tea.
