my love is bought

At the end of the bustling Dongguan Street, there is a quiet alley. The road is not wide, and it rises and falls according to the terrain.In the shade, moss still grows.

On both sides of the road are the courtyards of the residents, all white walls and gray tiles. There are brick flower windows on the courtyard wall. Through the flower windows, you can faintly see the flowers and trees in the yard, and some branches or vines protrude from the windows.

There are a few sweet-scented osmanthus scattered around the base of the wall. At this time, a small number of them have bloomed. Let's pass by and smell the fragrance of the flowers.

In the evening, the smoke from the kitchen rises, and the faint scent of food floats out from every house.

The street outside the alley is very lively, but there are very few people in the alley. The sound of footsteps when passing by can be heard far away, which shows the tranquility and peace here.

Although the residents of this alley are not wealthy, they are basically considered wealthy.

Liu Jifeng's home is the third house in this alley.This is a courtyard with two entrances, the steps and gates are very neat, and there are two small stone lions beside the gate.Going up two steps to enter the gate, bypassing the back of the stone sculpture, there is a corridor, and the small yards in the moon gates on both sides are the servants' housing, kitchen and warehouse, etc. At the end of the corridor is also a moon gate, which is the yard of the main house where he lives.

Liu Jifeng is in his early 20s this year. He is tall, with a slender waist and broad shoulders, and is strong and straight.Two distinct black and white phoenix eyes, a slightly aquiline nose, and dark skin.He has a calm temper and a gentle expression.It's just that he has been depressed all the year round, and the dark shadows under his eyes show that he has not slept well for a long time.

He is wearing a dark blue shirt, the material of which is very good, but the style is too simple, and he has been wearing dark blue all year round without any change.There is no decoration on the body, only a ring inlaid with black stones on the thumb of the right hand, and black satin shoes with white edges and exquisite workmanship on the feet.

He walked home alone, unhurriedly. As soon as he reached the gate of his house, Liu Quan, the servant of the family, was waiting outside the door early. The door is closed.

Pass the corridor, go back to the courtyard where I live, go up a few steps, and you will find the main room, turn left and enter the bedroom, change into the thin cotton robes and comfortable soft-soled shoes you wear at home, turn around and come out.

Warm water had been brought, he wiped his face and washed his hands.

Liu Quan hurriedly took the replaced black satin shoes to the yard and beat them carefully, then cleaned them with a brush, and put them on the wooden shelf behind the door of the main room. The master is the most particular about shoes, and he will not wear them if they are dirty.

A ten-year-old girl brought the sweet soup "Master" with a smile. He sat down and took a sip, then turned to look at Liu Quan who was standing beside him, and smiled lightly, "It's all done." , Changsheng will stay in the shop today."

"Ouch! Thank you, Lord, thank you." Liu Quan smiled openly, thanking him without a word.

"This is also longevity and sensible. He has done well this year. Shopkeeper Zhao likes him very much. He will have to suffer for a few more years before he can stand up. By then, you will be old. Let your family go out and enjoy him." blessing." Liu Jifeng said calmly.

"Grandpa, he just needs to do what you told him to do well. The young one still has to serve you. The young couple are both in good health! Following you means doing things, but actually enjoying happiness. After two years, please Find a good family for that girl, ouch! This little life will be complete!"

Liu Jifeng nodded slightly, "What's for dinner?"

Liu Quan: "Oh! Look at this happy person. The old woman has already prepared dinner, so she will come up immediately." After speaking, he ran away quickly.

He was sitting alone on a chair in the main room, drinking sweet water slowly, with the door open and a gauze curtain hanging down.

In the small yard in front, the floor is also paved with square bricks, and there are plaster flowerpots running along the wall, in which roses of various colors are blooming, chrysanthemums have begun to bud, and there is a large lotus vat with a few red carps.

It's early autumn, one year, and it will be the end of the year in a blink of an eye.

Although it is not necessary, I still silently recalculate the things to be done before the end of the year.

Liu Quan and his wife brought up the dishes, a small steamed shad, green vegetables, a small bowl of braised meat, and a bowl of porridge, and heated up half a pot of old-fashioned Huadiao.

Eating in silence, I poured myself a glass of wine, put shredded ginger in the flower carving, warmed it up and drank it, it tasted very good.After drinking a cup, I ate two bites of fish and two green vegetables.I poured another cup and drank it, a hot stream rushed out of my stomach again, my breath smelled of incense and alcohol, the pot was empty after the third cup, and my body felt warm.

Although he really wanted Liu Quan to reheat half the pot, he held back.He has been controlling himself and not drinking too much. In fact, his alcohol capacity is not bad.

I just know that with my current situation, once I lose restraint, it will be over.

After drinking the porridge, he put down his chopsticks, wiped his mouth and hands with a wet towel, and walked to the study next to him.

There was a charcoal fire burning in the study, which was very warm. He sat by the charcoal stove and put the copper pot with water beside it into the charcoal basin. Soon, the water boiled. He started to make tea slowly, boiled the tea, washed Tea, pouring water, scalding the cup, pouring it into a porcelain pot, and finally pouring it into a teacup. After a set, it looks like flowing water, which is very beautiful. The cup is brought to my mouth, I take a sip, stop for a while, and drink it slowly.

Only drank this cup.

I took a book on the desk, turned a few pages, and didn't move. I seemed to be reading a book, and I seemed to be staring at the book thinking about something. The candlelight flickered from time to time, reflecting on my face.

He has no expression, but there is a kind of unresolved frown on his brows.

After staying there for some time, Liu Quan'er said, "Master, the hot water is ready."

"Yeah." He agreed.Pack up the tea utensils you have drunk and take them to the main room.Mrs. Liu will come to clean up.

He stood up, walked to his bedroom, and opened a small door, and there was a clean room and a bathroom.There was steam in the barrel, and there was a change of clothes on the bench next to it.He took off his clothes, revealing his strong body, long legs, tied his hair on top of his head, and stepped into the barrel.The water was very hot, the skin was irritated, and it turned red all of a sudden.Very comfortable, it seems that soaking in this way can feel warm.

He sat on the barrel and rested for a while with his eyes closed.I hummed the tune I didn't know when I learned it softly in my nose, maybe it was hummed by my mother?

Before the water cooled, he stood up and looked down helplessly. The radiant little brother stood happily, as if waiting for the next good thing. He smiled wryly, ignored it, and put on his clothes.

Then he yelled out the window, "Liu Quan'er, it's finished washing.

"Hey!" Liu Quan responded outside.

He returned to the bedroom, a comfortable and tidy bed, leaning against the head of the bed, with his hair loose.Still took the book and leaned on the bedside to read.

After Liu Quan cleaned up, he returned to his room with Liu Jifeng's leftovers. His wife sat under the lamp and waited for him to come back. Then she stood up and looked at the things on his plate. She didn't eat much. . . . .

His wife couldn't help shaking her head and sighing softly.

Liu Quan's wife is very young, slender, very beautiful, clean and efficient, but not very talkative.

Liu Quan sat down, poured himself a glass of wine, took a bite of the fish, and nodded, "This fish is so delicious, no wonder it's so expensive, come here, and eat some too."

Then he looked at his wife with a smile and said, "Come on! Don't sigh, it's not like the first day. To be honest, I'm really happy today. I never expected it! I, Liu Quan'er, will have today. I married you Such a good-looking and capable wife gave birth to such a smart and capable son, and a well-behaved and beautiful daughter... Tsk! I said old lady, we will live forever, as long as we don't make mistakes, we will definitely be big in the future Shopkeeper, this life is so worth it! It's a pity that my parents are gone, they won't be able to see me, and they won't be able to enjoy my blessing." After speaking, the circles of her eyes were a little red.

His wife quickly comforted him, "Changsheng is a good boy."

Liu Quan: "Well, yes! Tsk, this little bastard! You have to remind him, don't get dizzy, do your duty. Don't be afraid of being stupid, just be afraid of thinking you are smart."After finishing speaking, I looked at my wife who couldn't say a few words for a day, "Forget it, let me tell him myself!"

The wife said worriedly, "Master..."

Liu Quan said, "Yes, but it's useless for us to be servants. Alas! He lacks a confidant, alas! Let's be considerate and take good care of him. I'm afraid that my uncle is like this, so I don't plan to marry again. Ma'am." He sighed.

The wife was surprised, "How can that work?"

"Maybe it's because I was afraid. At that time, I was looking forward to that child so much, and how sad I was later! Well, actually, I want to say, the important thing now is that the uncle needs someone who knows the cold and the hot, who can talk, and who can't marry him." It's not so urgent to marry a wife. First, get two innocent girls by your side, and send them to Zhuangzi when they are pregnant. After the child is safely born, let's talk about the status. You don't have to follow it every day , worrying about my heart, but how can we say this when we are alone? I mentioned it one day, and said that I should find an innocent girl who is sixteen or seventeen, and serve the master to wash in the house, who is more careful than me Be more thoughtful, the master didn't answer the question... Alas, let's not talk about this, let's be more careful."

The two looked at each other and decided not to talk about this topic.

"Tomorrow morning, don't cook, go buy Zhang Ji tofu nao, I love that. Then buy some steamed stuffed buns opposite Zhang Ji."

"Hey. I'll go tell my sister." The wife went to the next door to her cousin, the dumb aunt, and confessed to her.

Liu Jifeng turned off the light and lay down, the night was even deeper, he lay motionless, but couldn't fall asleep anyway.

The Liu family's ancestors were rich and rich, and there were a few capable people with vision and courage. They acted in a low-key and mysterious way. Unfortunately, there were not many descendants.In the generation of Liu Jifeng's grandfather, he took the official path and once served as an official in the Ministry of Household Affairs. He is considered to be a rare high-ranking official in the Liu family.He was bold and was highly valued by King Feng at that time, but later when King Feng committed a crime, he also got involved in the case and lost his family property to save his life. The official must not be able to do it.

The family was so frightened that they dismissed the servants, moved to Jingjiang secretly after several rounds, and bought some property.

Grandfather was shocked and heartbroken, and died of depression within a few years.Then the parents also died one after another.

Liu Jifeng was quite talented, so he was admitted to the Shanghai Juren Examination, and he was quite famous in the local area.His father passed away that year, and he didn't take the exam anymore, and took over the family property. The county magistrate at that time felt a pity for him.

When his parents were alive, he betrothed the daughter of a wealthy family in a neighboring county. After they got married, his wife was gentle and docile, and took good care of him.He has a lot of respect for his wife, but little love for him. He hasn't been together for two years, and his wife gave birth to a difficult child, so they all went away.

The only elder sister went to Sichuan with her husband's family a few years ago. The distance is long and the transportation is inconvenient.At first, there was correspondence with the family, but then there was no news, and the letter sent by Liu Jifeng was like a stone sinking into the sea. . . .

He is like a loner.

Sometimes he would tremblingly think that maybe his own fate was unlucky. Since he fell to the ground, the family has not been peaceful.

Living like this day after day, I still feel unwilling in my heart, but I am afraid to change.

The family still has a bit of wealth. There are two pieces of land outside the city and a small village. There are two shops on Dongguan Street and another shop. Privately, they still have some shares in Yinlou Commercial Bank.Qianjiang still has some business.

The business is managed by the shopkeeper, and they are all relatively stable people who have used it for many years.It doesn't matter whether he goes or not, usually he only needs to patrol the shop, take big ideas, and check the bills.

In this Jingjiang City, he doesn't show his mountains or dew his water, he is low-key, he doesn't have any enemies or close friends.

Occasionally drink tea and eat with friends or business partners.I climb mountains every ten days, I don't like to join in the fun, I don't have any hobby of spending money, and I feel free and at ease.

The home is this small courtyard with two entrances, the front is the servants' quarters and the kitchen.The backyard is his own.The house is simple and tidy, unremarkable.

There are not many servants in the family. Liu Quan is in charge of the concierge, shopping and all chores. His wife and a deaf-mute cousin are responsible for washing, cooking and cleaning the house.Liu Quan and his wife gave birth to a son and a daughter. The son Changsheng is Liu Jifeng's servant, and the 11-year-old daughter serves tea and water, sweeps the yard and waters the flowers.The son and daughter are well-grown and very sensible.

When Changsheng was 16 years old, Liu Jifeng let him go to the tea shop of Liu's family as an apprentice. He was down-to-earth, willing to learn, and thoughtful to the master.

Today I went to the household registration office to change his identity.From today onwards, Changsheng is a commoner. Liu Quan'er's family spends all their food and clothing in Liu's residence. Buy two houses over there and marry him a wife.

Liu Quan is so energetic that he can laugh out loud in his dreams.

The author has something to say: try posting a chapter first, if you don't have money, you can make a personal show, if you have money, you can do whatever you want.

There is no thrilling plot in Ban Zhong Tian Wen.

When you have nothing to do, have a cup of tea or a glass of wine, and chat to relieve boredom.
