    In the twenty-ninth year of Hongwu, it was the eleventh day of the first lunar month.  .  .  A ray of sunshine shone on Liu Wenyang's eyes. He opened his eyes hazily and found that he was lying on the bed, covered with a brocade quilt, and the little child Mingyue was curled up, lying at his feet, snoring.  Slept soundly.  Liu Wenyang gently lifted the quilt, then stood up and put it on Mingyue's body.  Mingyue moved a little, chirped a few times, and fell asleep again.  Liu Wenyang felt that his body and bones were aching, but he was very energetic. Especially when he looked around, he realized that it was not his own home, but a new place.  He fetched water and washed himself casually, then walked out of Guanxiang Pavilion, only to see the morning sun rising, like a round of red pills in the tender green of spring, extremely magnificent.  Liu Wenyang stretched out his arm, and then couldn't help but practice Tai Chi by the lake.  Tai Chi was a very popular national fitness sport in previous lives, but it is a rarity in this era. Especially Tai Chi Zhang Sanfeng seems to have just passed away. Tai Chi he founded has not yet spread in the world, and only a few people know about it.  Kind of boxing.  Of course, Liu Wenyang is not a martial arts master, and the boxing skills he practices are just some tricks to strengthen the body. In this era, compared with those real masters, he is the kind who will be killed instantly.  But no matter what, after the old punch, Liu Wenyang still felt comfortable all over his body, and there was no longer any back pain.  At this time, the two maids who delivered the food last night brought food over again. When they opened the basket, they saw some light food.  Liu Wenyang basically didn¡¯t eat anything last night, and now his appetite was unavoidable. He picked up his chopsticks and started to eat all the delicacies.  Eat happily.  The maids nearby saw that he was such a handsome scholar.  When he started eating, he was so voracious.  It is inevitable to hide your mouth and laugh.  "Mr. Liu, please eat slowly. If it's not enough, we will send you some more!" One of the pretty maids laughed softly.  Liu Wenyang licked his lips and smiled at the maid: "Don't bother the two girls, these are enough. However, I looked ugly and made you laugh." The two maids were about sixteen or seventeen years old, and they were just in love.  The age when love begins.  Liu Wenyang himself was very gentle and handsome, which could not help but make the two of them a little daydreaming.  "Young master, there is no need to be so formal. The master has told us that we should serve you well. By the way, my name is Chunmei, and her name is Qiuju." This Chunmei is as pleasant as her name, and a dimple appears on her cheeks when she smiles.  "If anything happens in the future, just ask us. If I'm not here, you can find Qiu Ju, but we are always together. If you find her, you will also find me!" This Chunmei likes to talk and has a mouthful of words.  non-stop.  But Qiu Ju just laughed and didn't say much.  Liu Wenyang has a good impression of these two maids and feels that they are much easier to get along with than the cold maid.  "Thank you two girls for your kindness. If anything happens in the future, I will trouble you!" Liu Wenyang smiled at them, showing his trademark eight teeth.  Chunmei and Qiuju's eyes lit up, and they felt that the smile was extremely bright and heart-warming indescribably. They also felt that the person in front of them was so outstanding, both in appearance and temperament, and so graceful.  He is a beautiful young man, so there is a hint of admiration in his heart.  "By the way, Mr. Liu, this is three hundred taels of silver notes. My master asked us to give it to you. She said that you have only been here not long ago. You can go out and have fun while the Lantern Festival is coming in a few days.  Let's wait until the festival is over before we start doing business!" As she spoke, the maid Chunmei handed the banknote to Liu Wenyang.  Liu Wenyang couldn't help but be stunned. He didn't expect that this Chun Shisanniang was so good at life. He didn't do anything when he came here, so he gave her three hundred taels of silver notes and flowers.  Since others know how to behave, he cannot lag behind, so Liu Wenyang generously took out ten taels and handed them to Chunmei and Qiuju and said: "You guys take this little money, it can be regarded as a little bit of my gratitude. Come all the way here  I didn¡¯t bring you any gifts, just buy whatever you like!¡± This time, Chunmei and Qiu Ju were stunned, and said hurriedly: ¡°No! Master, we can¡¯t accept your money.  The master suddenly scolded us when he found out! " "Haha, this is just a little bit of my thoughts, it's not too much. Take it. If Thirteenth Mother asks, I will speak for you!" Liu Wenyang said with a smile.  "But¡ª¡ª" Chunmei and Qiuju looked hesitant.  Liu Wenyang said again: "You said you wanted to help me just now. If I have anything to do, just tell you. Well, you are not happy just to accept this small amount of money!" Chunmei glanced at Qiu Ju, and Qiu Ju also said  He glanced at Chunmei and wanted to reach out, but was embarrassed.  Liu Wenyang is no longer fussy.? He directly handed the ten taels of silver to them and said, "Okay, from now on we will officially become friends! Don't shy away from asking you for help when I have something to do in the future!" "How could it be? We will definitely do our best.  Why!" Chunmei and Qiu Ju smiled happily.  In fact, Chunmei and Qiuju are ordinary maids in Chunfeng Tower. They usually have standard food and clothing expenses. They basically have no private money. Occasionally, they will be rewarded with some pocket money during holidays.  But it wasn't much, just a few hundred cents.  As a girl, who doesn¡¯t like to buy some rouge, gouache, and scarf ropa.  But where does this money come from?  It¡¯s not just saving money and saving money.  How could they be so generous as Liu Wenyang, who rewarded them with ten taels of silver in one go.  It can be said that they were extremely happy.  After carefully hiding the reward money, Chunmei couldn't help but praise Liu Wenyang: "I really don't understand. If you are as gentle and generous as the young master, why would Shiqin not like you?" Liu Wenyang was startled.  , "She doesn't like me? How do you know?" Chunmei said: "We live together, how could we not know? Yesterday when she came back to the house, she had a cold face and said that she had met  "Villain!" Liu Wenyang touched his face in embarrassment. Needless to say, this "villain" was himself.  "Also, she was supposed to send the money today, but she asked us to do it. Needless to say, she didn't want to see you, sir. Ha. I didn't know that you are such a generous person, but I missed your reward.  !" Chunmei kept chattering, "To be honest, that girl Shiqin is younger than us. Logically speaking, she should call us sister, but she usually relies on her master's favor and not only disrespects us,  He keeps yelling at us!" Qiu Ju couldn't help but pull Chunmei's skirt. Chunmei said, "What are you doing to me? I didn't say anything wrong!"  Isn¡¯t it enough? Huh. She only pretends to be a tiger and uses chicken feathers as an arrow. She really thinks she is some great person!¡± Qiu Ju became even more anxious and whispered to Chunmei: ¡°Stop it!¡±  "Don't say anything! Even if that girl is standing here, I still have to say loudly, I just don't like her, how about it?! Can she still ask the master to kick us out?!" Chunmei became more and more angry as she spoke.  It is inevitably much larger.  At this moment, "You Chunmei are chewing my tongue behind my back again!" I saw the maid Shi Qin appear out of nowhere.  Liu Wenyang couldn¡¯t help but be stunned.  Chunmei couldn't help but be surprised.  Qiu Ju said with a bitter face: "I stopped letting you talk a long time ago. You just didn't listen. Now it's good. She heard everything." Seeing that the matter had come to this, Chunmei said bravely: "  So what if you let her complain? What else will she do if we don¡¯t do all the hard work in Chunfeng Tower?¡± Shi Qin sneered when she saw that Chunmei was still talking.  Two voices said: "I will not be like some villains who only speak ill of people in private! What's the use of being sharp-tongued? Be careful if you make too many mistakes, your master will punish you sooner or later!" "What did you say" Chunmei  He wanted to come forward to argue, but Qiu Ju firmly stopped him and left.  Liu Wenyang also changed the topic and asked Shi Qin: "I wonder what Miss Shi Qin is doing here so early in the morning?" Shi Qin then ignored Chunmei and sneered: "What are you doing? Watching someone  A frivolous person flirting with two shameless servants! " In fact, Shi Qin came over because she was worried about the three hundred taels of silver, but she didn't expect to hear Chunmei's words.  Liu Wenyang didn't expect this girl to be so vicious and directly labeled himself a "frivolous person", so he said unceremoniously: "I'm so sorry, the frivolous person in your eyes now wants to eat, something that is an eyesore,  The person who makes me sick should leave immediately! " "You¡ª¡ª" Shi Qin stabbed Liu Wenyang hard with his eyes and said, "Don't be too proud. My master is treating you well now, but he might kill you later.  Throw it away! Like trash! " "Hey, you seem to be jealous when you say this. Do you mean that you secretly like your master and are jealous that she treats me well?" Liu Wenyang asked abruptly.  Shi Qin¡¯s face suddenly changed color, and she said angrily as if she was hurt: ¡°What nonsense are you talking about? A dog¡¯s mouth can¡¯t spit out ivory!¡± After saying this, he left angrily.  Liu Wenyang just said casually, but he didn¡¯t expect Shi Qin¡¯s reaction to be so big. He couldn¡¯t help but guess, could it be that they are really in a relationship?  !  Someone couldn't help but evilly fantasize about Chun Shisanniang and Shi Qin, a beautiful girl, taking off their clothes and taking off their clothes on the bed, kissing me, and what With chopsticks in his hands, he couldn't eat anymore.  , Liu ?Yang Yang took the three hundred taels of silver notes, then woke up the little boy Mingyue who was still snoring in his sleep, and said to him: "Let's go to the streets and spend money!"  There are still two days left before the Lantern Festival.  Today, the entire Poyang County has already been decorated with lights and colorful decorations, and it is extremely festive.  As a wealthy county, there are many shops selling business here, and there is a constant flow of customers from north to south. Many ladies from famous families will also show up at this time to buy some rouge, gouache, silk and satin, just for the Lantern Festival night.  Dress up and show off your beauty.  As for those scholars and madmen, they were even more busy preparing paper, ink, pens and inkstones, or buying books for guessing lantern riddles, preparing hard for the Lantern Festival night to show off their talents and attract the attention of beauties.  Liu Wenyang inevitably walked around when he first came to the county town, but he was not interested in the groceries for sale, and he lacked enthusiasm for the calligraphy and painting on the fans. On the contrary, it was the bookstalls that attracted his attention the most.  Having been here in the Ming Dynasty for so long, Liu Wenyang¡¯s biggest impression is the lack of entertainment and culture. Apart from eating and observing the fortunes, there is nothing to do every day.  The best way to relieve boredom is to read.  Of course, the books Liu Daguanren read were not eight-part essays, but some popular commentary novels.  At this moment, he was standing in front of a bookstall, browsing through books.  The bookstall owner asked him with a smile: "What book do you want to read? I have poems and songs here, as well as Confucius and Mencius. Of course, there are also good nouns and sentences from last year's poetry competition." "Poetry competition?" Liu Wenyang  This is the first time I heard such words.  "Ha. You can tell by your appearance that you are an outsider. This poetry competition is an annual event in Poyang City. It is held during the Lantern Festival, when talented people from all over the world gather together to recite poems and write poems. Finally, through everyone  Approval, select the person with the best poem, and praise it!" It is rare for the book stall owner to spread such knowledge to others, but he explained it in detail.  Liu Wenyang understood after listening for a long time that this "poetry competition" was just like the "I am a singer" entertainment activities in the previous life, except that singing was changed to reciting poems for poetry.  "Sir, if you are interested in participating in this kind of competition, just buy some poetry books from me. As the saying goes, if you have read 300 Tang poems by heart, you will be able to recite them even if you don't know how to compose them. You may know when the time comes.  You can come out on top and dominate!" Liu Wenyang is not interested in this kind of competition, not to mention he knows how much he weighs.  So he looked through it and said, "I want these!" "Oh, that's great!" The bookstall owner thought he had caught a big fish, as the poetry books were sold at high prices.  But at first glance, what Liu Wenyang picked was the cheapest libretto!  These songs are usually sold to rural people and are not worth a lot of money.  People like Liu Wenyang dress elegantly.  How could a handsome young man buy such a thing?  The bookstall owner was surprised and said with a smile: "Sir, are you kidding? Are you really buying these?" Liu Wenyang: "Then there are fake ones. I bought these for entertainment." "Haha, Master, if you want to have fun, I will  Let me introduce you to something better" The stall owner blinked obscenely, looking like the aunts who sold pornographic discs on the street in his previous life.  "Ahem, what else is good?" Liu Wenyang asked in a mean tone.  When the stall owner saw that he was so approachable, he said even more enthusiastically: "Of course the good stuff is inside, please come in!" Liu Wenyang understood and followed the stall owner into the shop. Not to mention, the stall owner soon dug through the shop.  Come out with a stack of black and white paintings and colorful erotic scrolls.  "Look, these are all good things, written by famous artists, lifelike and fragrant" the stall owner recommended with frothing.  Liu Wenyang flipped through it casually a few times, but felt that such ancient paintings were really unflattering, especially why were these women drawn as fat girls?  !  Are all men drawn as Fan Wei?  All of them have big faces and thick necks Liu Wenyang doesn't know that most of the spring palace paintings of the Ming Dynasty inherited the legacy of the Tang and Song Dynasties. In the Tang Dynasty, fatness was regarded as beauty, so it is inevitable that the beauties in these paintings are some.  Fat girl who ate too much McDonald's.  ??Seeing Liu Wenyang turning over and over again, he just didn¡¯t speak.  The stall owner said: "I don't know which one you like. If everyone likes it, I will give you a low price. It can also be regarded as making a friend. Just visit the store more in the future!" Liu Wenyang did not expect that this little boss would do it.  I have been looking through the business for a long time, and I feel really embarrassed if I don¡¯t want it. Besides, although these scrolls are not very to my liking, they are better than nothing, and they can be used occasionally to relieve boredom.  So he said to the stall owner: "I want these books and the libretto I just selected. Wrap it up for me!" "That's great, I know the young master is the kind of cheerful person!" The stall owner was very happy to work.  Come on.  This person paid the money and settled the bill.?Liu Wenyang asked Tong Mingyue to pick up the books he bought and continue shopping to see the scenery.  At this moment, Liu Wenyang walked out of the bookstall. As an outstanding representative of "beautiful men", it was inevitable that many women would criticize him. However, women's admiration for Liu Wenyang aroused dissatisfaction among many men. In their view, Liu Wenyang was worthless.  , just have a pretty face.  Therefore, from time to time, young masters on the roadside would look at Liu Wenyang angrily. Liu Wenyang didn't care about this. If he was not envied by others, he would be a mediocre man. Similarly, if he was not hated by others, he would be ugly. What's more, he was so handsome that he had no friends.  It should be.  " If Liu Wenyang and Liu Daguan were jealous of his peers, he could barely accept it; but he couldn't accept being teased by his peers.  On a street like this, it is inevitable that there will be some masculine guys with oily hair and pink face. When they see that handsome young man, they will inevitably tease him with words, so that they can sing the song "Chrysanthemum Terrace" together.  But they mistakenly regarded Liu Wenyang as the target of teasing. At first, Liu Wenyang could bear it, but after being teased by those oily and naughty guys for a long time, his answer was just punch him, "Dog head, if you keep pestering me, I will break you to pieces."  A mouth full of teeth!" Immediately, those guys who liked "Master Rabbit" all dispersed in despair.  He originally came to visit the street for fun, but unexpectedly he was full of anger. However, compared to Liu Wenyang's dissatisfaction, the child Mingyue was extremely happy, just because Liu Wenyang rewarded him with three taels of pocket money, which made him buy a large  There are piles of goodies, like candied haws, a candy man, and the crackling rattle.  Liu Wenyang frowned and looked at Mingyue carrying so many things in big and small bags. He couldn't help but said: "I didn't expect you to be a shopaholic! I can understand the candied haws and so on, but why do you still buy this rattle?  You are no longer a child, but you are so childish!" The little boy Mingyue said to his young master while biting the candied haws, "Master, you don't know, but I bought this rattle for myself! I bought it for my little sister!  " Liu Wenyang then remembered that there seemed to be a little sister in Mingyue's family. She must be six or seven years old this year. She seemed to have a runny nose and a double thorn on her head.  The last time I went to his house to deliver New Year's goods, Ming Yue's mother forced me to keep it for dinner. The little girl ran into my arms and made her new clothes covered in snot, making me dumbfounded.  (To be continued)
