Leaning on the railing Jiangyue

That year when Xu Fengjin was twelve, it was the first time he knew what it was like to serve guests with wine and tea every day. He was able to come to work, and he was liked by others. It was inevitable that someone would touch his hands and kiss his mouth. He didn't feel awkward. In the past, when he saw a child with a father and a mother at the entrance of the village being led and led, he would be hugged and kissed on the cheek, but he had no father and no mother, and he was happy for a while when someone kissed and hugged him.

At that time, there was a small shop selling candied dates on Nanbeixie Street, and they said that the jujubes were brought from Jiangbei, which were sweet to the heart. When Xu Fengjin made money, Yu Sanniang gave him a penny and asked him to buy them, but the business was weak and prosperous. Xu Fengjin coughed after eating too much sweet, unable to receive guests, so angry that Yu Sanniang cut off his money and let him moisten the lotus all day long.

Xu Fengjin secretly poured yellow lotus water into the lotus seed soup cooked by Sanniang, then ran to the candied date shop and stood helplessly outside the door. The shopkeeper was an honest man, and seeing Xu Fengjin outside, he waved him in.

Xu Fengjin was wearing a light yellow shirt that day and was dainty and cute. He ran in and said, "I didn't bring any money, but I'm in the south hall in front. You can sell me a bag first, and then ask Sanniang Yu for money, okay?"

The shopkeeper narrowed his eyes and took out two packs of sweet dates, and said wretchedly, "Brother Xiao Jin can eat as much as he wants, and I'll give you all for nothing."

Xu Fengjin was pleasantly surprised: "Really?"

The shopkeeper said: "Of course it's true." The delivery room touched Xu Fengjin's hand. Xu Fengjin didn't feel that there was a problem, so when he was about to leave, he was dragged into his arms by the shopkeeper, and Xu Fengjin's sweet dates fell off. All over the ground, he gasped: "What are you doing! Let me go."

The shopkeeper didn't care about him, he tore off his clothes and had to take him to the bed. Xu Fengjin opened his mouth and bit him when he was still young and struggled.

Xu Fengjin was thrown into the street by the shopkeeper by the collar, and his wife yelled and cursed: "The lewd young man seduced my husband-in-law, it's shameless! It's just a little shameless, it's a disaster!" Throwing the eggs he bought on him, the North and South Xie Streets are all old neighbors, if the eggs are smashed here, the vegetable leaves will be rotted there, and Xu Fengjin seems to understand, but gradually understands. He did a shameless business.

This endless abuse finally stopped when Yu Sanniang arrived with a feather duster. Sanniang bought half a cart of eggs, and ordered Guigong to smash them all in the shopkeeper's shop, pinching his waist and cursing: "You evil eyebrows and mouse eyes!" You can't afford the money and want to touch our Brother Jin? Our Jin brother needs money to touch his hands! You just want to take advantage of others with a few bags of jujube? You even stripped me of your clothes? It's not difficult, give me a hundred taels of silver right away, if you can't get it out, just smash it for me! Throw this shabby shop to me!"

Yu Sanniang is a pungent person, she really smashed the shopkeeper's shop to pieces that day, and made Xu Fengjin seriously angry, but after returning, Xu Fengjin remained silent and squatted in her room for a while, with no face on her face. She didn't change the clothes, so she ran to ask Yu Sanniang what she was doing. Yu Sanniang painted her eyebrows in front of the bronze mirror, not hiding it: "It's just what those people say, it's a lowly job."

There is a Lantern Festival in Lin’an on the first and fifteenth day of every lunar month, and lotus lanterns filled with heartfelt wishes are floating everywhere on the moat. Xu Fengjin is unkempt, standing on the bank, with vegetable leaves on her body and a stench, just about to walk into the river , he felt his shoulders tense, someone pulled him from behind, Xu Fengjin turned his head, and saw a boy in white clothes who was much taller than him, with a half-cut hole on his face, he seemed to have bought it in the lamp market.

"What are you doing here?" he asked.

Xu Fengjin wiped his eyes and said angrily, "I want to kill myself."

"Ah?" He asked again: "Why did you kill yourself?"

Xu Fengjin thought that he was going to die anyway, so he was not afraid to say it, so he vomited all the grievances he suffered today: "Anyway, no one believes me, and I will be despised by others in this profession, and will be looked down upon all my life. "

With a folding fan in his hand, the young man pinned it to his back, and invited Xu Fengjin to sit on a rock by the bank: "Then you also feel bad about yourself? Do you want to despise yourself?"

Xu Fengjin said: "I am nothing, no one will listen to me."

He said: "It's wrong for you to think like this. People have to value themselves first before others can value you. If you feel contemptible even to yourself, then others will think you are contemptible."

Xu Fengjin said, "Why do you talk around people like this?"

"Ah..." He laughed, and put it in a simple way: "I mean, sooner or later you will meet someone who doesn't mind your background, or a friend, or a lover."

Xu Fengjin said: "You're talking nonsense, you won't be able to touch me at all, everyone laughs at me for being humble, how can you be my friend and marry me."

He said: "If you jump into the river now, you won't be able to encounter it. If you cherish yourself and live well, then you will definitely encounter it in the future."

Xu Fengjin still didn't believe it.

He thought for a while and said, "Then... how about I be your friend first? I don't dislike you. You see, we are sitting on a rock now, and we are equal, regardless of high or low."

The moon is bright and the wind is clear, leisurely and comfortable, it was already late at the top of the mountain, Zhao Yu asked Cheng Qiao to arrange a few people to live in the hut behind the temple, saying that they would go to burn incense and worship tomorrow, Xu Fengjin squatted on the bed and frowned deeply, Cen Ling Take a basin of mountain spring from Yajian from the bamboo running water in the courtyard, and wash his face.

Xu Fengjin got out of bed and put his hands in the basin, the cold made him shiver.

Cen Ling hurriedly said, "Ah Jin? What's wrong?"

Xu Fengjin rubbed his face, then wiped Xijuan dry and said, "It doesn't look like it, no matter how you look at it."

He didn't understand this sentence, Cen Ling asked: "What, why doesn't it look like it?"

Xu Fengjin said: "Let me ask you, if two people say a sentence with similar meaning, how likely is it?"

Cen Ling said: "It's very big, after all, many people have similar opinions."

"Then what if the world finds this sentence ridiculous?"

Cen Lingrao nodded, "What does Ah Jin mean?"

Xu Fengjin thought about it for himself, and then handed Xijuan to Cen Ling. He couldn't sleep, so he went to walk a few steps in the yard. Zhao Yu's appearance today was obviously acting. Xu Fengjin saw through her identity as a princess. The guise in the house will be the target in Zhao Wangye's hands in the future. If Zhao Wangye is kind, he will have a good end. If Zhao Wangye abandons his son, he has to think about how to save his life.

So it's not like, even if he and Engong say the same words that don't dislike him, they are not alike at all. His benefactor can be a kind person like a banished fairy. In just one night, he can talk to him and teach him how to behave, but Prince Zhao...

Just as he was thinking, he saw a figure walking by not far outside the house, Xu Fengjin pinched his chin and squinted his eyes.

But Prince Zhao, I'm afraid that ink has been invaded in his heart, how can he be his benefactor?
