It's better to make money these days

On the day of Laba Festival, Li Zheng gave his three sons a day off, and they all went home to help peel the garlic.

Old Zhang cooked a pot of Laba porridge early in the morning and asked Li Zheng to come down and drink it.

Erya walked over with a bowl of Laba porridge full of red dates and chestnuts, and Li Zheng hurriedly got up to take it.

"I'll do it myself, thank you."

Er Ya blushed, she was not only shy but also cold, she lowered her head and hummed, "I'll fill it up for you if it's not enough."

Li Zheng looked helplessly at Lao Zhang, who shook his head and smiled, helpless.

The Spring Festival is approaching, and the taste of the new year is getting stronger and stronger.

In the past, Li Zheng didn't like Chinese New Year, it wasn't interesting, but this year he wasn't in the golden birdcage, instead, he felt a kind of anticipation in his heart.

At night when Li Zheng went to close the window, he suddenly saw a figure on the roof opposite. Li Zheng was so frightened that he trembled immediately. After seeing who it was, he felt a little helpless. He reopened the window, picked up his cloak and jumped out.

Yuan Wu stood on the roof and looked at that place. He had been looking for this person for two days. When he saw the figure from the back in Ruanxiang this morning, he almost thought he was hallucinating.

This person had been nesting here these days, and they didn't even notice, but fortunately, he was not in danger or anything.

Li Zheng stepped in front of Yuan Wu and said, "Sorry, I'm so boring."

Yuan Wu: "..." Don't explain, I already understand.

He said: "Master, as long as you are fine." Otherwise, how many times would we have to die.

Li Zheng chuckled twice: "Then what, have you eaten yet?"

Yuan Wu ignored him: "Master, you have to go back with me."

"...Then what, there's still a lot of Laba rice for dinner, so tell the brothers to come over, it's free to eat."

Yuan Wu still said indifferently: "Master, you have to go back."

Li Zheng clicked his tongue: "All right, all right, give me three days, and we'll go back when we're done."

Yuan Wu didn't insist this time, he nodded: "Yes."

Li Zheng rolled his eyes, paused and said, "How's it going over there in Niannian?"

Yuan Wudao: "Very good, Mr. Wen has become friends with them, and they are currently going to school together in the school."

Li Zheng raised his eyebrows, a little surprised in his heart, and said, "That little mute is also there?"

Yuan Wu nodded.

"How about Tian'er, is everything going well?"

Yuan Wu said with a smile, "Eldest Young Master is a talent."

Li Zheng was relieved, and asked again: "When can I come back?"

Yuan Wu thought for a while and said, "Maybe we have to wait until the next year." The overall situation has been decided.

Li Zheng didn't ask any more questions, and waved his hands: "Okay, let's go back and rest, there is nothing wrong with me."

Yuan Wu nodded, turned and disappeared into the night.

Li Zheng looked up at the dark sky, and stood alone on the roof of the house for a while before going back.

......

"Hey, have you heard that Ruanrou Township is doing promotional activities?"

"How can I not know, it is said that it has been open for several days, and it will be closed when it is sold out."

"Oh, you have to hurry up, I heard that people from several surrounding cities are also here."

"Isn't that right, Quan Changle is the only one in his family, hehe, those people are probably here for that?"

"That's not sure, his rouge gouache is cheap and smells good, don't talk about it, hurry up and grab it!"

"Hurry up, hurry up!"

"Hey, don't grab, don't grab, there are people watching this, so please be quiet!" Wang Kuaizui shouted standing at the door, waving a handkerchief.

Zheng shared his thoughts with his third son yesterday, and asked him to pack some of those stocks separately, and specially give them to those customers who spend a lot of money, which is called New Year's Rebate.

The buddies set up two counters outside, Wang Kuaizui stared at individual discounted ones, one buddy was carrying a combination set meal, the third son in the room was still in charge of keeping accounts, and the other was in charge of distributing New Year's rewards.

Li Zheng didn't go in to help, he disguised himself and hid in the crowd looking at these "money" with a smile on his eyes.

Yuan Wu said from the side: "Master, can you go back?"

Li Zheng rolled his eyes: "What's the rush, isn't there another day?"

Yuan Wu wanted to ask what to do after everything was arranged, but after seeing his expression, he didn't say a word.

Although this master is easy to talk, he is the master after all, and he cannot interfere with the master's decision.

Li Zheng had indeed arranged everything, but there was still one thing left to do.

That is to buy New Year's goods.

I also want to know that there is no hair in Yaowang Valley.

Although the capital is prosperous, but after his actions, not many people would have time to buy some good goods, so he planned to go to Yuecheng to buy them.

It was better last time.

Yuan Wu didn't know that men were also so scary when they bought things. It was so scary that he had to call another person to accompany them.

I stayed in Yuecheng for another two days before I bought everything.

Li Zheng said, "Are you going with me?"

Yuan Wu: "We want to protect you."

Li Zheng nodded, understood.

......

Two days later, Li Zheng and the others arrived at the Valley of the Medicine King.

Yaowang Valley is full of green trees all year round. Although the poisonous insects may hibernate, there are very few herbs in winter, so few people disturb the Yaowang Valley in winter.

Li Zheng entered the valley from a small path, and the two of them had already returned at the intersection, saying that there was a big order to be taken, and Yuan Wen had already summoned him several times.

As they got closer, the uneasiness in Li Zheng's heart of pretending to be forgotten was ready to move, but was firmly blocked by the city wall.

He took a deep breath and said silently, "It's just a refusal. There is a lesson to be learned from your relationship. Believe him, it's not that you don't want to, but you can't."

At a glance, there is still a thick layer of snow on the river, while the ground is almost muddy.

Li Zheng glanced at the thatched hut on the other side, then walked slowly to the old man's room, and when he opened the door, no one was surprised.

Li Zheng sighed, turned and walked to the pharmacy.

"squeak"

Hearing the sound of the door opening, the old man turned his head, his eyes lit up, and he asked in surprise, "Why are you here?"

Li Zheng smiled and said, "Chinese New Year, what will you eat if I don't come?"

The old man slapped the fan: "Hey, sweet potatoes are roasted every day, and farts stink to death."

Li Zheng smiled and said, "I brought a lot of delicious food, it's enough."

Hearing this, the old man immediately threw the fan into his arms, and ran out quickly.

Li Zheng closed the door, went to the stove and opened the lid, an indescribable smell came over his face, he frowned and closed the lid, thinking, it was different from the previous one, presumably the cold poison had changed the recipe.

Cold poison... alas.

It shouldn't be easy to get angry in winter, can he go and have a look?

After a cup of tea, the old man walked in with a mouth full of oil, and said, "It's better for you, those people won't buy food for you."

Li Zheng said: "If you go in and out too frequently, it might cause trouble. I'll just come here often in the future."

The old man smiled and said, "You can take the medicine to him later, and I'll heat the water."

Li Zheng looked up at him and said seriously, "Thank you."

The old man shook his body, with a horrified expression on his face: "Come on, be normal, I have goosebumps."

Li Zheng bent his eyes and smiled.

The old man glanced at him again, and said: "When I treat illnesses, generally speaking, it treats illnesses and not people. It just so happens that he has both sides. Moreover, even if I don't do anything, my apprentice will still help. After all, I want to get involved." Yes." So don't think about so many useless things.

Li Zheng understood, tilted his head with a smile and approached, just about to speak, suddenly wrinkled his nose, he stretched out his hand to cover it and took a step back: "How long has it been since you took a shower?"

The old man raised his arm and sniffed: "It didn't take long, what to wash in winter."

Li Zheng couldn't believe it. Although this person looks like a man now, it's too much not to take a bath for a few months...

"I'll boil water for you later, you have to wash."

The old man opened his mouth and wanted to say something else.

Li Zheng raised his hand to stop, and resolutely said: "No, it must be washed, and there must be a new look in the New Year, there is no need to discuss it."

The old man curled his lips and said in his heart, anyway, there are people serving, so just wash it.

After a while, Li Zheng walked to the other side with a small medicine jar.

Mo Hansheng sat in the medicine bucket and moved his ears. He looked up at the door with a slight smile on his face.

Li Zheng walked to the door, stretched out his hand to touch the doorknob, and opened the door before he could force it. He opened his mouth wide in surprise: "You..."

Mo Hansheng took the tray, turned around and walked into the room and put it on the table. Seeing that the man was still standing at the door and did not come in, he couldn't help raising his eyebrows: "What's wrong?"

This was the first time he saw him stand up, and it was normal to be a little shocked, but it was too long.

Li Zheng closed his mouth, glanced up and down at him, and said awkwardly, "You're actually taller than me?"

Mo Hansheng laughed out loud suddenly, he shook his head helplessly, this person was thinking about this for a long time.

He walked over and stretched out one arm to bring him in, and closed the door with one hand: "I'm at least two years older than you."

Li Zheng's body was still cold, and he wanted to break free because he was afraid of being cold.

Mo Hansheng pulled him: "What's wrong?"

"cold."

"Then add another piece of clothing." It was a little cold to the touch.

Li Zheng raised his head slightly and measured the gap between the two with his eyes: "I mean don't freeze you."

Mo Hansheng opened his eyes slightly: "You know?"

Li Zheng nodded and lowered his eyes. He glanced at the medicine on the table out of the corner of his eye and remembered it. He hurriedly walked over and said, "Oh, drink the medicine quickly, it will be cold in a while."

Mo Hansheng stroked his hair, pulled him into his arms, his arms gradually tightened: "No hurry, let me hold you for a while."

Li Zheng blushed slightly, raised his arms around his waist, and buried his head on his chest: "Oh." Why is it suddenly sensational?

Mo Hansheng smiled, bowed his head and kissed the top of his hair.

Hearing the pounding heartbeats gradually become one, Li Zheng closed his eyes, the tip of his nose was filled with the unique smell of medicine that he was familiar with, at this moment he felt strangely at ease.

"We haven't seen each other for a long time."

There was a slightly sighing sound above his head, mixed with a trace of grievance.

Li Zheng froze for a moment, he couldn't say that he came here before and was so heartbroken by you that he ran away.

"Uh, your leg..."

Mo Hansheng let go of his arms and pulled him to sit down. He opened the lid and poured the medicine while saying, "Senior is very powerful. After soaking for more than half a year, he can already stand up."

Li Zheng said in surprise, "Is this all right?"

Seeing that he was so happy, Mo Hansheng stretched out his hand to touch his head again, shook his head and said, "One stick of incense at most, senior said it's pretty good, another six months should be about the same."

The joy in Li Zheng's heart was replaced by worry before it had time to emerge.

Mo Hansheng knew what he was thinking when he frowned, and drank the medicine in the bowl in one breath, he squeezed his hand, and said in a warm voice without changing his face: "Don't worry, it's been fine for so many years, I'm afraid It's just for show, it doesn't matter."

Li Zheng looked up at him, dissatisfied: "Do you treat me as a child, how can you feel at ease with poison on your body?"

Mo Hansheng looked at him, the tenderness in his eyes seemed to drown him.

Li Zheng felt inexplicably nervous when he saw him, and moved his fingers unconsciously. He swallowed a mouthful of saliva: "Why, why are you looking at me like that?"

Mo Hansheng smiled and said, "I want to kiss you, can I?"

Li Zheng was speechless, his face flushed slightly: "You...Where, no one asked, asked this." What can he say, what should he say?
