Chapter 2 Encounter and Idleness

Chapter 2 Meeting and doing nothing

"Is the handsome and unruly little official in front of me arrogance and unruly? Is it a Liuguang?"

Kaifeng Prefecture is so lively that you can often hear such loud shouts. Jian Youzhi smiled and looked around. It turned out that it was the appearance of Kaifeng's ancient city, so there was no need to be recreated.

Erya tried hard to pull Jian Youzhi's clothes.

"Do you want to eat my tofu?" Jian Youzhi smiled and wanted to touch her two maids again.

"Go away quickly! There are fun elsewhere!" Erya said such a rare thing. Even Jian Youzhi could endure touching her both maids.

"Brother Liuguang, go slowly!"

Erya pulled her cuffs back again and walked forward.

"Jian Liuguang, can't I hear my brother's voice?"

The voice behind it became louder and louder.

"But call me?" Jian Youzhi looked at Erya.

Erya looked nervous and shook her head in a hurry, nodded again, and realized something was wrong, so she shook her head again.

Jian Youzhi turned around and saw a thick face approaching her. This guy was a handsome man. He shook his head, had a fat head and ears, and was covered in oil. Even with silk on his body, he could tell that he was a foodie!

"Is it me?" Jian Youzhi looked at this guy and just wanted to laugh.

"Could Brother Liuguang change his words?" The foodie looked inexplicably surprised.

Jian Youzhi looked at Erya. Erya nodded and then confirmed that the word "tragic" and the guy before he was reborn was almost the same as his father's level.

"I dare to ask my brother--"

"Brother, I am your brother, you are my brother!" The foodie hugged Jian Youzhi's shoulder, "I heard that Shopkeeper Su's withdrawal a few days ago-"

"Back off the engagement!" Jian Youzhidao.

"Yes, it's his mother's break-up. This old man doesn't know the gold and jade. Why don't you worry about having no wife like a brother? Today I'm going to be a friend and have a few cups with me!"

"This--" Jian Youzhi had no impression of the foodie, and was a little confused for a moment. Erya next to him tried to pull her clothes and shook her head like a rattle, not afraid that her two maids would fall apart.

"Hurry, hurry!" The foodie said without saying a word, and pulled Jian Youzhi and headed towards the nearby Panyang Tower.

The waiter brought the wine and food one after another.

"There were a few new sisters from Hongxiulou yesterday, and the songs were pretty good!"

"Drink!" Jian Youzhi raised his glass, and the foodie was dry in a hurry.

"Asan from Changlefang gambled me five or three cents of silver, and agreed to pay it back a few days ago. But this guy won't go there again. Tomorrow, he will go to his house to find his bad luck!"

"drink wine!"

...

"You - you - this guy is not good enough. I called my sister to accompany you. I - I haven't! Zhang's mother, called Cuihua -" The foodie stared at Erya standing beside Jian Youzhi with drunken eyes, shaking her head.

"I dare to ask who is here!" Jian Youzhidao.

"I'm - yes - Han Wuyan, my father - Han Qi is the Kaifeng Promoter. This brother is good-looking, but who is it?" After saying that, his fat body arched forward, knocked down countless cups, bowls and plates, making snoring like thunder.

Han Qi? Isn’t this guy a descendant of a famous minister? How come he is so good?

"Pay the bill!" Jian Youzhi made a fuss and threw down a piece of silver.

Unexpectedly, after this guy was still a famous minister, Jian Youzhi paid the bill freely, and ignored Han Wuyan and fought with Erya back home.

"Little official—"

Erya looked gloomy.

"What do you want to say?"

"That's a bad guy!"

"who?"

"That guy-"

Jian Youzhi nodded and said, "It turns out that he is a bad person. I will drink with him another day and see where the bad is. I will not imitate him in the future!"

Erya stomped her feet: "Little official——"

I was wandering around Kaifeng these two days, and it was really not interesting. Once I felt fresh, I felt so tired.

"Erya, why not go and see Manager Su!"

"Don't go!"

"Why not look at his daughter?"

"Shame or not!" Erya murmured in a low voice, "I have to be embarrassed by someone who has forced her to divorce!"

"say what?"

"No, little official, let's go back!" Erya pulled Jian Youzhi's cuffs again.

"Then go back!" Jian Youzhi nodded.

Jian Youzhi's three-day trip to Kaifeng ended here, and returned to the village that day. He had nothing to do, so he had to go out again.

"Where are the little official going?" Erya quietly stood on the road.

"Skip! You don't have to follow!"

Erya made way and followed Jian Youzhi closely, without any intention of staying.

"Want to go out with me?" Jian Youzhi leaned closer and looked at her little face up and down.

Erya took a step back vigilantly and nodded quickly. The father ordered that the young official must follow up and never allow him to do anything ugly. The matter of breaking the engagement has already lost all his face. Erya is stubborn and hopes to keep a close eye on it, so that he will not do anything that is angry and resentful.

"Hello, little official!"

"I've seen a little official!"

The fields on this farm were full of rice planting men, so naturally, they understood the leisurely young owner of the farm. The only women and children who had only slurries in pots of slurry, when they saw Jian Youzhi, they asked him well.

"Tsk tsk!" Jian Youzhi shook his head, "It's too low!"

Erya didn't say anything, she couldn't understand!

"I'm afraid the output is not high!"

After saying this, a man who was planting rice near me was dissatisfied and straightened his waist and said, "Little official, this is the Chameng rice that my father has been looking for. Three kinds a year, and he can get six or seven stones. In previous years, only one kind is a year, but only two stones are produced. Compared with previous years, it is much better!"

So that's it. Jian Youzhi nodded. His cheap father dared to make wine in the winery. He probably collected too much food. Moreover, the Song Dynasty government also banned the ban and allowed private brewing.

Jian Youzhi no longer answered and wandered around, but saw the surrounding village houses with simple houses and mud walls and thatched grass. He looked inside, and was extremely shabby, and couldn't help but mutter: "It's still a little dilapidated, the landlord's wealth is the source of all evil!"

"What did the little official say?" Erya suddenly appeared like a ghost, staring at Jian Youzhi horizontally. She did not allow the owner and his wife to say this. Even the owner's son was no exception. This is Erya's loyalty, or because Erya was always taken care of by the owner and his wife after being bought into the farm, and she lived a worry-free life. She was very grateful.

"The landlord's wealth is the source of happiness!"

"Not this!"

"Go back!" Jian Youzhi was a little disappointed.

"The latter sentence is a little wrong!"

Jian Youzhi sat in the back yard: "Warm a bowl of wine!" Why did this mean like Kong Yiji's tone? He hurriedly added, "Erya, this great official wants to drink!"

Soon, Erya picked up a pot and a cup. She paused heavily on the stone table in the yard, pouting and not talking. This was not a good job. If the owner's father had not repeatedly told me that the young official had not recovered from his illness, he would have to take care of himself so that he would not have been idle with him here. There were so many things to do in the village.

Jane Youzhi took a sip and said, "Phoo, Pooh, Pooh, Pooh"

"What are the little official doing? I've ruined the good wine in vain!" Erya didn't like it and glared at Jian Youyi's eyes.

“Is this a good wine?”

"My father's wine is among the top three in Kaifeng Mansion!" Erya was obviously dissatisfied.

"Let you know what good wine is another day!" Jian Youzhi stretched out his hand and pinched Erya's face.

Erya instantly petrified - this guy pinched my face. When he was about to get angry, Jian Youzhi had already left. Even if he told this to his father, the little official would definitely beat him up. But such a thing would definitely make his father unhappy. Whatever he wanted, but what was wrong. He stomped his feet hard. A small face turned from white to green, from green to red.

When he was in the lantern, Jian Jinyin was reading the account book in the hall, and the next one was Erya and Old Man Wu.

"What have you done in the past few days?" After a while, Jian Jinyin put down the account book and closed it, and did not immediately return it to Old Man Wu.

Erya hurriedly stepped forward and replied, "I went to Kaifeng Mansion for three days and met a small official from the Han family. The two of them had a drink in the Panyang Restaurant and then went back to the village. They had been shopping in the village the day before yesterday. In the past two days, they went to the winemaking workshop and returned to the house. I don't know what I'm busy with, and I don't allow my maid to go in. It's mysterious!"

Jian Jinyin nodded and said, "It's hard for him. After resigning from the marriage, he was hit hard, and he actually saved a lot of trouble. The young man from the Han family had no trouble dating. As long as he didn't do anything out of the ordinary, he would let him go for a few more days. In the future, you can go to the wife to serve him!"

"Thank you, Dad!" Erya was happy and thanked her. Seeing that there was nothing wrong, she said goodbye.

Seeing Erya leave, Jian Jinyin said to Old Man Wu: "The income in the winery has been lower these days. Can you tell me why?"

Old Man Wu hurriedly said, "The little old man has also gone to Kaifeng winery these days to take a look. Manager Wang is doing his best and his business is always good. But - it's just that a new wine appeared in the Pan family restaurant a few days ago, which overshadowed our family's limelight. If it weren't for the small profit but the price was too high, I'm afraid the income would be smaller."

"Oh?" Jian Jinyin couldn't help but be stunned, "What new wine?"

Old Man Wu took out a wine gourd from his waist, picked up a cup on the table, and filled it. Jian Jinyin looked at the color of the wine, nodded, picked up the cup and tasted it, clicked, frowned, and sighed, "I'm afraid my winery can't be opened anymore!"
