Bandit Reborn

The 'stingy ghost' Li Huaixi was pressed on the bed by the 'beast' county magistrate, the two of them messed around for a while, and the people from the yamen came to invite the county magistrate to watch the dragon and lion dance performance.

Lin Yichen got up and changed into his official uniform, picked up Li Huaixi, who had been neatly tidied up by the maid, and sat in the official sedan chair to leave the house. Li Huaixi's small hand stove was refilled with charcoal, and he carried it carefully all the way. It was already several inches thick, and the temperature was astonishingly low.

When we arrived outside the county government office, the team of dragon and lion dancers was already waiting there. The gongs and drums here were louder than the theater troupe in Lin's mansion. It made Li Huaixi's heart pounding, and Lin Yichen was alone. He held him tightly by hand, and never let him go, which made him feel more at ease.

In fact, it doesn't matter whether the county magistrate likes to watch dragon and lion dances. As a county parent official, whether he is good at painting or not, he has to put two strokes on the exquisite dragon head. This is the rule.Li Huaixi couldn't see how good Lin Yichen's painting skills were. Those two dots could be drawn by someone with a long hand, which made him admire those flattering people around him. Yes, it seems that the delicate faucet is supported by these two dots.

After finishing the eyes of the dragon, the gentry of the county family embraced Lin Yichen to host the lantern riddle meeting. Li Huaixi pulled Lin Yichen's hand to let him carry him away. These gentry were too close, and everyone was at least 40 centimeters taller than him. He has a feeling of being in a primitive deep forest.

The teenage county magistrate sat on a high platform with a child in his arms to preside over the lantern riddles meeting, surrounded by more than a dozen prominent figures from the county, the oldest old man leaning on crutches, with a big white beard, setting off the main seat The two guys on the Internet are even more nondescript.But no matter how nondescript, these two guys have been sitting steadily in their seats, and the people watching the lantern riddle quiz are very happy.

The lantern riddles on the lanterns were all selected by the master earlier. As Lin Yichen described before, they were divided into motivational and challenging. He can guess well, but he appeared with the county magistrate, in order to avoid suspicion, he can't go out and guess.

"Are you hungry? If you're hungry, I'll send someone back to get you some hot food." Lin Yichen asked softly while holding him.

"Not hungry. The guesser over there has already guessed five questions in a row. Who is he?" Li Huaixi pointed to a young man in his 20s and asked under the stage. A rush of madness, unlike the people here.

Lin Yichen glanced at the direction Li Huaixi was pointing at, "Oh, that's a famous flirtatious talent in our county. He comes out to grab the limelight at this time of year. There are three concubines in the family who don't need money. They are called Chen Shengru, but this person Up to now, I am still a child, and I don’t have much real talent.”

"Hehe, maybe a talented person has no intention of becoming an official?" Li Huaixi reached out and touched the gemstone on Lin Yichen's official hat. The official uniforms of the Great Zhou Dynasty were very particular, and Lin Yichen looked good after wearing them.

"No intention to take the exam every year for official career? He took the exam five times in the year I took the exam for scholar. Passed the exam." Lin Yichen pulled down Li Huaixi's little hand, rubbed it gently in the palm of his hand, and felt that it was very soft and fun.

Li Huaixi glanced over there, and the woman named Chen Shengru was surrounded by a circle of women who were composing poems for the occasion. Li Huaixi buried her head in Lin Yichen's chest and laughed silently after listening. It turned out that this Chen Shengru was also a I came from time travel, and the poem I wrote is the world-famous "The head of the willow on the moon, people make appointments after dusk"!It's a pity that poetry in this world has its own rhythm and rhythm, and this kind of five-character poetry is not appreciated here. It is enough to deceive women, and it is hard to be elegant after all.

The winner of the Lantern Riddles Contest was taken away by a scholar in his twenties. Lin Yichen awarded the pimple-faced scholar a 20 taels of silver as a prize, and the scholar happily went drinking with his classmates.

Li Huaixi was greedy for the two big ingots of silver, and felt a little hungry even with them. Lin Yichen went back to the county government office to change into casual clothes, and then led him to the street to find food. During the Lantern Festival, there were three days off for bathing, and all the cooks in the county government office went back. It's the holidays.

During the Lantern Festival, there are more stalls selling food on the street than usual. This day is an excellent opportunity for countless men and women to make a private life, so the hawkers also take advantage of the opportunity to make a fortune. People here are no more stupid than modern people, very Knowing how to do business, mandarin duck cakes and mandarin duck cakes are everywhere, and even glutinous rice balls are sold in pairs.

Li Huaixi and Lin Yichen ate east and west, except for those spicy ones, they had to taste every food on the stall.In order to make it easier for young men and women to date, there are many hawkers selling masks on the street. These masks are carefully made, only covering the eyebrows and forehead, and the part below the nose is exposed. Li Huaixi thinks this is for the convenience of kissing in places where no one is around.Lin Yichen also bought two, but the magistrate has no beauties who are convenient to kiss. There is only a bean wrapped in a big cloak. The two of them are wearing masks and standing on the street eating fried rice cakes. destroy.

At this time, Li Huaixi saw an acquaintance on the street, it was his cousin Cheng An who was an apprentice in the silk shop, Cheng An was standing alone in front of the stall picking things, he had grown a lot taller, he looked like a teenager, but he was still thin Lean.

"Cousin, what are you buying?" Li Huaixi asked while holding a large bunch of meat.

Cheng An was startled, Li Huaixi took off his mask with a smile, "Cousin, it's me, Huaixi."

"Oh, it's you! Me, I didn't buy anything." Cheng An replied blushing with his hands behind his back.

Li Huaixi took a look at the stall, "When you buy hairpins, you just say you buy hairpins. What are you embarrassed about? What kind did you buy? Let me help you find my mother's hairpins. " Li Huaixi opened his eyes and said nonsense, his mother never bought hairpins at all.

"Really? Then, well, you can help me to see, I don't know which one to choose." Cheng An didn't understand Li Huaixi, so he chose to believe him foolishly.

"The choice of hairpins depends on who wears them. If my mother is the age I would choose this one, my aunt would choose this one, and my grandma would choose this one." Li Huaixi picked out three hairpins and tore them apart.

"No, not that old," Cheng An blushed to the point of bleeding, and dialed back the bead flowers Li Huaixi picked for his grandmother.

"How big is that? Is the face pointy or round? Fat or thin? White?" Li Huaixi pretended to be a matching expert on TV in his previous life, and asked several questions in a row.

"I, I'll choose by myself. Who did you come with? Little aunt didn't just give birth, who in your family is free to take you out for a walk?" Cheng An glanced behind him, but didn't see the familiar relatives in front of him. Behind him, he could only see a richly dressed man wearing a mask looking at Li Huaixi a few steps away, and there seemed to be a few guards around him blocking the crowd, leaving a lot of room for them.

Li Huaixi glanced back, smiled at Lin Yichen, turned his head and continued talking to Cheng An, "I came out with my senior brother. Are you going to my house the day after tomorrow? Cousin Yan Ying is going too."

"I, I might go. I've been looking at the shop during the Chinese New Year, and the shopkeeper told me to go home and have a look tomorrow." When Yan Ying was mentioned, Cheng An's face blushed again.

"Then you go, my mother and the others miss you very much. This hairpin is not bad, it looks like a cherry blossom, very beautiful." Li Huaixi picked out a cherry blossom-shaped hairpin and handed it to Cheng An. The boy's thoughts are all written in the Just a few words on the face, and the whole set came out.

Cheng An was really satisfied, and he paid the money without much bargaining. Li Huaixi wanted to take Cheng An to go shopping, but Cheng An said that he would get up early tomorrow morning to open the store and pack up the things that went home, so he explained like a big brother After saying a few words to Li Huaixi, he left.

Lin Yichen came over and threw the barbecue in his hand to a beggar in the crowd. The barbecue was already cold, and he was afraid that Li Huaixi would spoil his stomach if he ate it like he was on the mountain.

"Do they have a gang of beggars?" Li Huaixi raised his head and asked Lin Yichen. In ancient times, he always wanted to see the legendary rivers and lakes. Maybe know something.

"The beggar gang? I haven't heard of it." Unfortunately, Lin Yichen also shook his head, "You also want to pick hairpins? Your cousin has someone to give, who do you give?" Lin Yichen teased Li Huaixi. , but he is obviously not interested in the women around him. In this regard, Li Huaixi is not as good as his cat.

"Give it to my grandma and my mother. My mother only has one silver hairpin." Li Huaixi touched his small purse, which contained the pocket money he had been saving all the time, and the money his father used to sell fish and rabbits for him.He left his little golden locket and golden bell in Lin's mansion but did not take them out, and was going to share them with Li Long and Li Hu when he went back.

"I can't tell, you are quite filial, don't touch your purse, there is not much in all, just pick whatever you want, there is nothing valuable in it, I will pay for you." Lin Yichen said generously.

"I have to pay the bill myself because there is nothing of value, otherwise I would be grateful if I got you a favor." Li Huaixi pouted, carefully picked a few beaded flowers from the stall and paid for it by himself.

"You're so smart!" Lin Yichen gave him a brain crash, "Is there anything you want? It doesn't matter if it's more expensive, I'll give it to you."

"No, a gentleman should be clean and self-sufficient in his actions. Hunger and poverty are peaceful..." Li Huaixi shook his head and chewed his words. He stretched out his hands to eat at home and opened his mouth. The biggest consumption was the rice paper he usually used to practice calligraphy. Lin Yichen had sent a lot of them years ago. , he wants nothing now.

"Come on, I know you are Mr.'s favorite student, look at how hot you are when you see Jin Zi!" Lin Yichen interrupted his boasting, and gave him a contemptuous glance.

This reminded Li Huaixi, "Then why don't you give me a few more little golden locks, I like that thing!"

"I don't have one. The old lady just gave away a bunch of them a few years ago. I have golden beans, do you want them?"

"A man of great wisdom does not care about the appearance of things, but only cares about the essence."

"You just like gold!"

"You're right!" Li Huaixi admitted without blushing, so he got another small bag of golden beans.

Lin Yichen was very unbalanced. His grandma gave six little golden curlies and received a lot of auspicious words from Li Huaixi, but he never heard a word of thanks for the big carts and small carts he gave to Li Huaixi.

"Little villain, why have you never thanked me for giving you so many things?" Lin Yichen asked indifferently while holding Li Huaixi's hand.

"You sent it, do I still need to say thank you?" Li Huaixi pouted.

Don't you need it?Lin Yichen thought for a while, and the corners of his mouth curled up.

The heavy snow didn't stop, Lin Yichen suddenly remembered Li Huaixi's shoes, lifted up his cloak and saw that they were all wet, "Why didn't you say that?! Is it cold? I should find you a pair of boots in the afternoon and put them on. It's been a long way."

"It's not cold, it's not soaked, it's dry inside." Li Huaixi stomped his feet, shaking the snow off his shoes, "There seems to be a hot soup seller in front, let's go and drink."

"Go back and have a drink. It's late now, and you still go shopping with your shoes wet. You are really a child." Lin Yichen smiled and picked him up, "Mr. Have you recited it all? You won’t be punished again tomorrow, I have nothing to do with you this time, and I won’t be with you anymore.”

"You dragged me out to look at the lights. My books are all at home, so it's natural not to memorize them." Li Huaixi quibbled.

"You want to blame me? I have those books at home, go back and memorize them." Lin Yichen waved, and the servant who had been following behind carried the sedan chair over.

"Is it late? But there are still so many people on the street." Li Huaixi reluctantly looked back at the dimly lit place.

"It's late, it's almost Haishi." Lin Yichen put down the car curtain, took off Li Huaixi's shoes to check, the toe of the shoes was actually soaked, and his two little feet were cold, so he quickly put them in his hands to warm them .

"Tomorrow my house will be lively. When you picked me up, you saw the dishes and bowls all over the place. Tomorrow will be even more chaotic. I don't think I can even find a place to set my feet!" Li Huaixi complained in Lin Yichen's arms in a small group.

"Then I'll take you back later, and I'll pick you up after school."

"Forget it, I'll go home, my grandma should be worried." Li Huaixi muttered and fell asleep.
