For Chen Yaozhi, the melancholy mood is just a passing passerby.

When the chirping of the birds the next day fell into my ears, the melancholy of yesterday had already scattered to the ends of the earth.

I'm probably really a cold person, Chen Bitzhi said in his heart.

Chen Yaozhi is in a good mood today, a new batch of brewed red wine has arrived.Chen Yaozhi stored the new goods in the cellar, and Lin Ren and Lin Ren took inventory of the inventory.

"Do you want to try new products?" Chen Yaozhi asked.

Lin Ren, the most obedient employee, naturally obeyed. "good."

Chen Yaozhi spent a lot of hard work on the new batch of brewed red wine. From the perspective of color, it is clear, and the red wine is full of vitality. It is a good product at first glance.

Chen Yaozhi poured two glasses with satisfaction, and the mixed aroma of black cherry and raspberry came over his face.

Lin couldn't help but look at the boss who was tasting the red wine.He felt that he couldn't figure out a little bit of the boss's intentions.He can feel the boss's love for red wine, which is very pure and hot.

With the talent of the boss, the value that can be hyped when applied to those supernatural wines is far greater than the ordinary red wine they have been selling for so long.However, the boss seems to be vaguely resisting the power wine, and only regards him as a support.

Lin Ren couldn't figure out what the boss was thinking, so he simply gave up, raised his glass, and drank it down.

inside the store.

Xiao Keai looked at the guests who entered the door, a little at a loss.

It was Du Kang who came.Xiao Ke'ai also knew that this person had a very close relationship with the boss, or unilaterally had a very close relationship with the boss.

"The boss is in the cellar, I'll call him." Xiao Ke'ai hesitated.

Du Kang waved his hand and pointed to the wooden table by the window. "No, I'll wait for him and let him be busy."

When Du Kang said this, Xiao Ke'ai simply ignored him.

Du Kang sat down at the wooden table and looked at the little Corgi resting on the wooden table.

As if sensing that someone was looking at him, Mr. Idiom's ears trembled, and he opened his eyes suddenly.

Mr. Idiom is familiar with this person in front of him.

There is always a lackluster face, but there are always indescribable emotions in the eyes.Clearly plotting against his master, his ambition to conquer is naked.

Du Kang looked at Corgi who was staring like a light bulb in front of him, chuckled lightly, and wanted to play with his scarf like Chen Yaozhi did.

Little Corgi was dissatisfied, and immediately jumped a few times to the side, pointed Tao Xin's buttocks at him, his ears were straightened up, and vigilance was written on every hair.

He will not give a chance to those who want to rob him of his master.

Du Kang secretly laughed.

On weekdays, Little Keji was inseparable from Chen Yaozhi, and with Boss Chen around, Du Kang would not pay attention to this dog.Now that Chen Yaozhi is not around, Du Kang is somewhat interested.

This dog is said to be Chen Yaozhi's spiritual companion, and his personality is very different from Chen Yaozhi's.I like to be surprised, and from time to time, I will say something that no one can understand.Du Kang felt that he was seriously ill, that's why he loved Wu and Wu and looked at a dog very pleasing to the eye.

With a chuckle, Du Kang stretched out his hand again to hug the little Corgi.

This time the little Corgi didn't dodge, because someone stopped him.

"What are you doing?" came a cold voice.

Du Kang lowered his head and laughed.This person's voice was always a little heartless, but somehow it made him happy.

"The visitor is a guest. Boss Chen is refusing to welcome the guest?" Du Kang slightly tilted his head and smiled, showing a bit of coquettishness in his movements.

Chen Yaozhi picked up the little Corgi, but he was not annoyed.Although this person has a flat face, his smile is quite lethal.At least, in the face of this person's nonsense, instead of resisting, he even had some indescribable security and habit.

Chen Yaozhi sat across from Du Kang frankly, took out the tea set from the shelf, and made tea neatly.

Du Kang propped his chin, his eyes followed the man's every move.

Du Kang was thinking why he fell in love with Chen Yaozhi at first sight.

Maybe the aura on his body is too special, like a light that has passed through thousands of years, without heat or glaring, old but reassuring.

"You... have something on your mind?" Du Kang said suddenly.

Chen Bite's hand froze, but he quickly covered it up and handed the tea to Du Kang's table.

"Tell me, is the current federation considered a peaceful and prosperous world?" Chen Yaozhi said, a pure interrogative sentence, without any emotion.

Du Kang was a little surprised.Based on his understanding of Chen Yaozhi, this person is definitely a typical person who has nothing to do with himself, but does not show any feelings of worrying about the country and the people.

Du Kang said with some sarcasm: "It's a pity that the Federation is now known as a rich country and a strong people. It's just an appearance. You don't know how much decay and decay lies behind these scenes. Those flowers and brocades at the top of the Federation, what is left after removing them, Probably just absurd. Sometimes, the deeper you are in this circle, the deeper your knowledge, the more real your disappointment will be."

"You know the upper class well." Chen Yaozhi said indifferently, neither complacent nor further intimidating.

Du Kang laughed, neither denying nor defending.

"I remember, the late Marshal of the Ninth Army has the same name as you?" Chen Yaozhi said.

Du Kang's hand supporting his chin moved up slightly, covering his lips.If it weren't for the other party's tone of being too peaceful and not showing any aggressiveness, Du Kang would have thought it was irony.

"Marshal Du Kang, no, the former marshal, I was lucky enough to meet a few times. He is really handsome, personable, talented, and well-educated. He himself is the sweetest and most mellow wine in the world, which fascinates all men and women in the world. I believe it is You, too, will fall under his charm." Du Kang said boldly.

Chen Yaozhi couldn't help but rolled his eyes: "It's just the same name, your appearance with You Rongyan is too funny, do you need to be so embarrassing?"

Du Kang raised his eyebrows, it seemed that the other party was not inquiring, although he didn't want to hide it.

"Then do you know Marshal Du Kang's father, who used to be Marshal Du Liguo of the Fourth Army?" Chen Bitzhi asked.

"Why are you asking this?" Du Kang's originally sinister voice cooled down.

Chen Yaozhi didn't notice it, or didn't notice it, and said: "Before I was on the spaceship, I passed the time to read "The Biography of Du Kang. It is recorded in it that Du Liguo is an amiable and upright hero?"

Du Kang swallowed the tea slowly. "Yes, he is a hero, standing upright. It's a pity..."

"But biography is always the most unreliable thing in the world, isn't it? Maybe he is a hero, but he also has an unknown dark side..."

"He didn't!"

Chen Bite's words were interrupted in the middle.

He is not a person who doesn't understand the style. He felt Du Kang's resistance and gave up the topic.

"You came to see me today to make tea?"

Du Kang's expression eased down.

At that moment just now, he felt that he had fallen into the deep sea vortex and lost his mind.The person in front of me is like a dangling little white sail that appears at the intersection of the sky and the sea when there is despair.It may not be possible to save him, but it gives him the hope of being saved.

"Actually, I'm here to invite you to participate in the Atonement Festival next week." Du Kang said.

The Day of Atonement is an ancient festival of Blue Star, even older than the Four Flowers Festival.It's just that the Four Flowers Festival has become a well-known festival in the region, and the Atonement Festival is still a festival that only the locals of Blue Star celebrate.

In the early days, Blue Star's medical conditions were backward, the plague was rampant, and people were in panic.Ordinary people can do nothing but accept this precarious pain.

Later, a god came to the blue star.The masses only need to donate a little daily necessities to get the gift of God and eliminate diseases.

Later on, the so-called gods were only the first group of people with healing abilities who came from other planets.

It is no longer important whether it is a god or a man, but the Day of Atonement has been passed down.On this day, Blue Star will have many festive activities, such as giving gifts to neighbors and friends to drive away evil spirits; such as preparing banquets and redemption paper puppets; such as releasing soul boats on the river of Blue Star.

Blue Star has a rule that on the Day of Atonement, except for necessary institutions, other private shops are not allowed to engage in profit-making business.

The shop can't be opened, but Chen Yaozhi doesn't mind finding some activities to pass the time.

"Okay." Chen Yaozhi agreed.

==

On the day of the Day of Atonement.

Even though it is closed today, Chen Yaozhi came to the 1848 wine shop early in the morning, and hung a redemption lamp at the door of the shop according to the custom of the blue star.

The Soul Redemption Lamp looks like a horned palace lantern before crossing, and there are several folklore characters on the lampshade.The bottom of the redemption lamp is covered with strings of small beads and tassels.The tassels are made of pearls that are abundant in the blue star river, and each one is radiant.

"Boss, the shopkeepers around have sent a lot of gifts." Xiao Ke'ai shouted.

Chen Yaozhi fastened the last soul redemption lamp and went back to the shop.

The wooden table of the store is full of gifts, which are quite original, without complicated packaging, and the name of the gifted store is pasted on red paper.Gifts range from low-grade exotic animal meat to cheap electronic products, and even baby clothes.

"Boss, do we have to prepare a gift in return?" Xiao Ke'ai asked.

One of the customs of the Festival of Souls, relatives and friends in the neighborhood give each other gifts, which can drive away evil spirits and ensure good weather and family safety in the coming year.

Basically, shops within a block will give each other gifts, which are usually cheap products from their own shops, which is expensive.

It was the first time for Chen Yaozhi to celebrate this festival, so he had no experience and no preparation in advance.But there is no need to think too much, after all, his shop only sells one thing, wine.

Chen Yaozhi came to the cellar with Mr. Idiom, who was still sleepy, in his arms.

Chen Yaozhi didn't have a count of how many shops there are in the block, but he reckoned to prepare a few more.

Taking out a batch of custom-made [-]ml small wine bottles, Chen Yaozhi thought for a while, and took out the rest of the health-building idiom wine.

Divide the [-]ml of Healthy Body into three bottles, and distribute the remaining [-]ml in the remaining wine bottles.Chen Yaozhi took out the newly brewed ordinary red wine and filled up the rest of the bottle.

The three unredeemed bottles of red wine were given to Lin Ren, Xiao Ke'ai and Jing Yong respectively, and the rest were given to other shops as gifts in return.

Chen Yaozhi put the red wine into the storage container, and looked at Mr. Idiom lying on the cabinet, waking up from sleepiness.

Confused, Mr. Idiom is like a girl in a boudoir. Her movements are light and cautious. When she finds herself on a two-meter-high cabinet, her round dog eyes immediately become foggy, and she looks at Chen Bitzhi pitifully.

Chen Yaozhi couldn't help laughing, this guy is obviously as bold as a tiger, but sometimes he just wants to show off his cuteness unintentionally to attract people's affection.

Chen Yaoshang went forward and hugged little Corgi back into his arms, thought for a while, and asked, "Mr. Idiom, do you have any presents you want?"

Mr. Idiom is already awake, and when he heard this, he immediately recovered his spirit: "I want it to be loyal! Serve the country faithfully! Died on the battlefield! Wrapped in horse leather!"

Chen Bitzhi: ... I shouldn't ask more questions.

Chen Yaozhi: "Change it to something more realistic, otherwise this question will be invalid."

Mr. Idiom stood up from his arms, with a dog face filled with righteous indignation: "Well, don't think about making progress anymore. The situation doesn't wait for others, and your hair will become silk in a moment. Work hard and forget food, take pleasure in forgetting worries, and don't know how to grow old coming."

Chen Yaozhi: "If you continue to make up famous sayings like this, Li Bai and Confucius will really crawl out of their coffins."

The wilted Idiom Jun's little ears drooped, snorted, and buried his head in Chen Yao's arms.

Mr. Idiom waited for a long time, but seeing no comfort from the other party, he could only poke his head out again aggrieved.

"Then don't serve the country with all your heart, you can exchange more idioms." The idiom gentleman said in pain as if cutting his flesh.

no respond.

Chen Yaozhi walked out of the cellar, gave two bottles of hardcover wine to Lin Ren and Xiao Keai, and asked him to drink it himself and not to give it away, then he walked out of the shop and gave red wine from door to door.

"Isn't it okay to change into idioms?" Xiao Keji saw that Chen Yaozhi hadn't answered, his eyes were full of tears. "Then I'll get another one?"

"Okay, I'll change it for you later." Chen Yaozhi said.

Mr. Idiom was stunned for a moment, and then he groaned happily.

Chen Yaozhi walked the entire block and returned to the 1848 wine shop again.He looked at the closed storefront opposite the store, hesitated for a long time, and knocked on the door.

For a long time, there was no one.

Just when Chen Yaozhi was about to leave, the door opened.
