Although it was a reward for wine, Qi Yongfan couldn't go away empty-handed.He carried two bags of drunkard peanuts and wrapped them in oiled paper.Looking down at himself again, the clothes on his body were covered with the smell of barbecue fumes, which seemed unsightly, so he got up to change.

Opening the closet, his eyes passed over a row of cotton linen shirts, and finally stopped at the black robe he bought at the beginning.He spent a lot of money on this dress, and he liked it quite a bit, but he usually worked in the kitchen, so it was inconvenient to wear this kind of robe, so he never wore it.

He took off his robe and changed it, went to the toilet and looked in the mirror, thinking happily, how could there be such a good-looking man in this world!

Then he took out the men's perfume at the bottom of the press box and sprayed it randomly.

Well, you can go out to meet the beautiful neighbor next door.

……

The moonlight is like water, and the jujube tree leaning against the corner casts half a shadow.A circle of fluffy grass chicks grew out of nowhere on the muddy ground of the Yin family's small courtyard, and a few leaves fell from the bare tree trunks.

Winter is coming to an end and spring is coming.

The pavilion is covered with thick animal fur, even if you step on it with bare feet, you won't feel cold.The stove was burning with charcoal, and the fiery red light and shadow illuminated half of the small courtyard brightly.

There was a table in the middle, and Qi Yongfan and Yin Xu sat side by side.Several plates of peanuts, melon seeds, and dried mangoes were placed on the table, as well as half a pot of rabbit meat hanging by the stove for roasting.

Yin Xu poured out the hot wine.The wine glass was very small and seemed to be made of jade, and the steaming wine exuded a strange scent of osmanthus.

The ancients distinguished wine by smelling the aroma and looking at the color of the wine.Once a good wine is unpacked, its fragrance often wafts away.As the saying goes, the aroma of wine is not afraid of deep alleys, which means that the wine is well brewed.

Qi Yongfan looked at the color of the wine in the glass, it was crystal clear.This is rare in ancient times when winemaking technology was rough.He took a sip lightly, full of strength, but the alcohol content should not be high.

Yin Xu picked up some pieces of rabbit meat for him, and said with a smile, "I caught this rabbit when I went up the mountain with Xiao Linzi a few days ago. It has been fattened for a winter, and the meat is extremely delicious."

Qi Yongfan took a sip, marinated with salt and soy sauce, the taste is not bad.Suddenly remembered something, he asked casually, "Where's Xiao Linzi?"

Yin Xu said indifferently: "He sprained his ankle when he went up the mountain, so he was sent to the city to find a doctor and doctor for treatment."

Qi Yongfan was a little stunned, and said: "Why did you send it to the city? There is also a doctor in the town."

Yin Xu is too kind to his servant...

Yin Xu said: "The town doesn't look good."

Qi Yongfan said: "Then what do you do with your daily life these days?"

He saw that Yin Xu looked like a young master, the kind who didn't touch the spring water with his fingers, without the servants to take care of him, he would probably starve to death in the small courtyard.

Yin Xu said: "I'm going to find Yazi to buy someone tomorrow."

"That's good." Qi Yongfan couldn't help persuading: "When you pick someone this time, you must choose someone who is smart and obedient, like Xiao Linzi, who will be difficult to get along with after all."

Yin Xu nodded thoughtfully, wondering if he had listened to his words.

It is indeed an arty thing for two big men to drink under the moon.After drinking for three rounds, half of the barrel of wine was drunk, and the rabbit meat was also eaten up.Qi Yongfan got up and said he was going to go to the bathroom, Yin Xu pointed him in the direction.

Ancient toilets are really inconvenient.It may not have been cleaned for a few days, and it still smells faintly.Qi Yongfan quickly solved the bladder problem, put on his pants and walked back, when he bumped into a figure suddenly.

Yin Xu leaned blankly against the jujube tree in the corner of the courtyard, his robe was stained with a lot of mud.He turned his head and glanced at Qi Yongfan, a smile appeared on his handsome face, and in the dark night, he was a little creepy and cold.

In fact, it is rare to use "beauty" to describe a man's appearance, but he is one.Not only is the bone phase healthy, but the complexion is also as white as jade.You Qi took a closer look, his slender eyebrows were curved, and there was a faint charm.

He said: "Brother Qi, have you heard of Longyang's goodness?"

Qi Yongfan has read history books for 5000 years, of course he knows.Although a little surprised, he still nodded.

Yin Xu squinted at him, "Then have you ever thought about being with a man?"

Qi Yongfan wanted to nod, but suddenly remembered his serious purpose of coming to another world, and shook his head again.

"Forget it, ordinary men prefer to marry a beautiful wife and go home." Yin Xu smiled brightly, but at the same time felt lonely.

Qi Yongfan couldn't help blurting out: "Could it be that you like men?"

He regretted it when he said it.There is no one who asks people like this, the ancients paid attention to subtlety, and speaking too directly would be inferior.

Yin Xu wasn't angry, but he didn't answer the question either.He walked back to the pavilion, lazily, sitting cross-legged on the cushion, staring at the messy table, saying: "It's getting late, you go back."

Qi Yongfan stood there for a while, then left.He thought to himself, what a weirdo this beautiful neighbor is.

……

The next morning, when Qi Yongfan went to the tavern, he heard a piece of news.Last night, someone salvaged a corpse from the small river in Nanshan Town.

The yamen in the town generally dealt with such cases as stealing chickens from a certain family or occupying land by neighbors. It was rare to encounter a murder case, and it was widely spread, and the whole Nanshan Town became excited.

People in the streets and alleys, teahouses and taverns are all talking about it.In just one morning, Qi Yongfan listened to no less than ten versions.

Some say it was the murderer who murdered and sunk the corpse, while others say that he committed suicide by jumping into the river.In a word, each of them exerted the imagination of the people, everyone expressed their opinions, and they were coherent enough to write an ancient version of "Ten Deadly Sins".

"Let me tell you, yesterday afternoon I was washing clothes by the river, and the clothes hanging at home smelled like a dead man, what a crime!"

"What about drinking water in the future? The water in the river is undrinkable."

"Drink the water in the hanging well."

One day passed, and in the evening Qi Yongfan took copper coins to the bank to exchange for broken silver as usual.On the way to the Qianzhuang, we had to pass through the government office. The entrance was very lively, and a notice was posted, saying that someone should come to collect the corpse.

Out of some curiosity, Qi Yongfan also stepped forward to take a look, and stood there in horror.The soaked male corpse was wrinkled, and the muslin clothes on his body covered the bruises and purple spots on the body—that especially immature face was none other than Xiao Linzi!

He took two steps back in fright, and suddenly remembered what Yin Xu said to him last night...

Human imagination really is endless.He has already imagined countless scenes of love and hatred between masters and servants.

He shook his head, trying to forget these weird thoughts.Xiao Linzi looks quite ordinary, with a fair face and no beard, and he speaks coquettishly. Even if Yin Xu is as good as Long Yang, he will definitely not like this kind of man.

This day, after returning home after changing money, Qi Yongfan looked at the gate of Yin Xu's house, and Qi Yongfan only felt that the wind was blowing, which was weird.He quickly opened the door and got into the car, only then did he feel much safer.

Have a cabbage pork dumpling for dinner.Boil hot water and put some salt in the pot. The rolling white-skinned dumplings floated up and down in the water, and soon diffused a noodle fragrance.

The dumplings are bought in the town, and the lady of the noodle shop makes them herself. The skin is thin and the filling is big, which is very popular.Maybe it's because the dumplings came from the north, and the southerners are still rare.

Qi Yongfan filled a bowl for himself, dipped it in soy sauce and ate a few whole, when suddenly he heard a knock on the door.

If this was normal, he would definitely have opened the door.But now, thinking of the tragic death of Xiao Linzi, he felt flustered, first looked through the crack of the door twice, and shouted: "Who is it?"

The person outside said: "It's me, Yin Xu."

Qi Yongfan was not at ease for a while, and said bluntly: "What are you doing here?"

Yin Xu said: "Do you have food at home? Can you sell me some food? I can pay double the price."

"You wait."

Qi Yongfan ran all the way back to the car.There were still seven or eight dumplings left in the pot, so he scooped them all up and put them in a bowl, and gave Yin Xu another small dish of adjusted soy sauce.

Sure enough, Yin Xu did not break his promise, and directly gave half a piece of broken silver, equivalent to 500 Wen.

Qi Yongfan asked him: "Why didn't you go to Yazi's to buy a boy?"

Yin Xu said sincerely: "I forgot."

Qi Yongfan thought for a while, and said: "A body was salvaged from the river in the town. I went to see it today... The dead is Xiao Linzi, do you know?"

Yin Xu pursed his lips and remained silent.

Qi Yongfan continued: "Didn't you say that he went to the city to see a doctor? Why did he die in the small river in the town..."

"He jumped into the river by himself." Yin Xu said hoarsely, "I didn't have time to stop him."

"Why?" Qi Yongfan frowned, somewhat incomprehensible.

Yin Xu let out a breath and said coldly: "That day when he came back from hunting in the mountains, he sprained his ankle. I kindly helped him all the way, but when he walked by the river, he suddenly told me that he wanted to form a Longyang relationship with me. ..."

He said it quite embarrassingly, "I didn't agree, and then he threatened to jump into the river. I thought he wouldn't jump, but I never thought he would jump like this. It just rained and the river was flooded." Flooded, he disappeared as soon as he jumped in, and I searched and sailed around but couldn’t find him.”

Qi Yongfan really didn't know what to say.Is it a matter of mourning?It can only be said that beauty is sometimes a mistake.

He said: "If the servant can't be found for a while, you can come to my tavern for dinner during the day, and I will give you a copy of whatever I eat at night."

Yin Xu looked very moved, and hurriedly said: "How embarrassing..."

Qi Yongfan remained expressionless: "Of course, it's about money."

Yin Xu: "..."

The author has something to say: here I come. .I repeat again, this is a superficial dynasty, and the commercial level is similar to that of the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Since I dare to write, I must have checked ancient documents, but if there is any inconsistency, it is purely fictional! !Stop being serious, sisters
