The moment he turned around, Jian Chen was stunned. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

A sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl, tied in two small buns, tied with a simple flower cloth, slightly cramped and uneasy, with eyes as bright as stars, frowning like daisies, a slight beauty mole at the corners of her mouth, and thin teeth dazzling in the sun.

Holding a pot of emerald plants in his hand, there are flame-like flowers blooming on it, red and green are heavy colors, and the girl who does not apply powder behind her is even more light.

The light cyan skirt, two simple colorful ropes around the wrist, and a pair of very simple cotton soft shoes under the feet, slightly bent inward, hiding the stains on the shoes.

Although the girl tried her best to make a smile look, she was still more shy and uneasy, especially when she was stared at by Jian Chen's blank gaze, and hurriedly lowered her eyes to stare at her toes, and her voice became like a mosquito.

"You...... Can you buy this flower? If you don't buy it, I'll go. ”

Jian Chen clutched his wildly beating chest, listening to the increasingly subtle sound, looking at the eyebrows that had not yet grown into a stretch, and his heart couldn't stop pounding.

"This is Yu Qian'er...... My sister, but now she doesn't recognize me......"

At this moment and at this moment, Chen Jian really felt how heavy, heavy, sour, and bitter the four words of vicissitudes were.

After going through so much, the heart is no longer young and naïve, and the trembling body bites the tip of the tongue to calm itself, and the head is quickly turning in circles.

A thought burned his heart like sticky, already burning asphalt, impulsing his words.

"Tell her...... No, no...... Just say...... Let's just say where did I see this sister? ”

But another thought calmed the fire and calmed the feelings in my heart like a cold, floating sea.

"Can't talk nonsense, can't talk nonsense...... She's still wearing her hair in a bun, and I still have something to do, so I have to let him remember me first and take his time...... Take your time......"

The inner confrontation was only for a moment, and Jian Chen squeezed out a smile on his already stiff face, and asked in surprise, "Cousin?" Cousin, aren't you going to the capital? How to sell flowers here? ”

The girl was startled, looked at Jian Chen carefully, and said curiously, "What did you say?" Did you recognize the wrong person? ”

Jian Chen hurriedly shook his head and frowned: "I said cousin, you always like to play like this, we grew up together, I can't recognize it?" ”

The girl was in a hurry, took a step back with a little shrunk holding the flower pot, tilted her head and looked at Jian Chen carefully, "You recognize the wrong person, I'm not your cousin." ”

"Impossible! You are clearly my cousin Wang Yuyan! I said, sister, are you sick? Why don't you even know me? How are your aunt and uncle? When did you move back? I haven't seen this in years...... Let's go to my house, your uncle doesn't know how to be happy. ”

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to pull the girl's hand, but the girl was so frightened that she hurriedly shrank back, put the flower pot on the ground, and said angrily: "You are really weird, I said it wasn't your cousin." ”

After speaking, he took out a piece of soft paper from his sleeve pocket, with some words printed in red, held it up in front of Jian Chen and said, "See clearly, my name is Lin Xi, so I don't want to call Wang Yuyan." This is a household registration card, is it possible that this is still fake? ”

Jian Chen pretended to look at it a few times, clapped his hands and said, "Oh, I'm really embarrassed, I recognized the wrong person, it turns out that your name is Lin Xi, not my cousin." ”

The girl glanced at him, but she didn't think too much, she squatted down and was about to hug the pot of flowers, not wanting Chen Jian to pick it up first, and said with a smile: "This world is so big, it's really strange, I can't imagine that there are people in this world who look so similar." Hey, when my cousin comes back in a few days, you can do me a favor and scare her. Where do you live? When she comes back, I'll go to you in advance to help with this. That's really ...... You said that you and I didn't know each other, but I suddenly begged you for this favor, which was really a little uncomfortable. Let's do it, let's know each other, let's go to the teahouse for a cup of tea, and I'll buy this flower......"

Even if the girl is no longer ignorant of the world, she understands it at this time, snorts, and scolds softly: "I think, there is no need for this, right?" ”

grabbed the flower pot, pulled his legs and left.

Chen Jian snatched up the girl with a swish, and said with a smile: "Don't go, we can be regarded as acquaintances." As the so-called five hundred times of looking back in the previous life, in exchange for this life, not only did we not pass by, but there was such a misunderstanding, I think we have to talk about the relationship between glasses and eyes in our previous life......"

The girl raised her head, just like Jian Chen's familiar smile with slightly narrowed eyes, but her voice was cold.

"The ancestors only gave us this life, where is there any past life? As you said, when our Xia Kingdom was first established, it only had a population of hundreds of thousands, but now there are tens of millions of people, how do you explain what you said in your previous life? In addition, only people who have broken eyes and cannot see good or bad things clearly need to use glasses. Get out of the way! ”

Chen Jian became more and more pleased, it seems that there is no such thing as three obedience and four virtues, and there is still the ancient style of singing love songs in the previous life, and when he was about to continue to talk nonsense with a shy face, there was a light cough in his ears, and his shoulder was also pulled by Zhang Xuan behind him.

When I raised my head, I saw four young people walking on the opposite side, richly dressed and bright, one wearing jade around his waist, and the other wearing a bronze yang sui on his waist.

At this time, there are no matches and no lighters, bronze yang sui is not only a practical product but also a luxury, when the sun is in its prime, take it out to the sun, rely on the bronze concave mirror to reflect the sunlight and ignite it is also quite a temperamental behavior.

The leader sneered: "Okay, Jian Chen, it's really strange, where did your father come from?" Where did you come from, cousin? I also went to study in the capital...... Does anyone in your family know which side the door of the school palace is facing? In broad daylight, you are also a man in this way to stop other girls? ”

As soon as this person said this, Jian Chen's face suddenly turned a little red, and he said that evil does not prevail over righteousness, and he is not completely dirty enough to rely on his father's identity to be a fool.

Just about to back down, after thinking about it, the person on the other side recognized himself, the same thing as his before, and his heart couldn't help but be angry, the pigeon landed on the black pig and said that the pig is black, what qualifications does the crow have?

Among the parents of the four people, there are two officials and two businessmen, and those who are officials are not allowed to engage in business, this is a rule that has been set a long time ago, and it is natural that officials and businessmen collude together.

Either the person in charge of the local stability and market stability, or the person who has a Daye Iron Workshop, are all families of more than 100 years. Compared with them, Chen Jian is the child of a nouveau riche, and the young people opposite have organized some business organizations in the school, absorbing the children of some officials and businessmen.

They recited poetry, discussed state affairs, talked about the price market, talked about the news, read new things in newly published pamphlets, and played with women to exchange with each other or seduce women in a more elegant and polite way. Chen Jian and Zhang Xuan are still stuck in low-level interests such as watching plays, flirting, reading manuscripts, horse racing, fighting, and being brave and ruthless, and there is still at least a generation to go before they enter that circle.

If this is reprimanded by a righteous gentleman, Jian Chen will also back down, thinking that neither of us is a good bird, what kind of big-tailed wolf are you pretending to be here?

Take a step and know that the other party is good at despising the weapon of mockery and criticism, so he takes out the criticism of the weapon and hits it with a fist.

The people who patrolled nearby came over and opened it, reported the names of their respective fathers, paid the fine according to the law, and exchanged a few words of scolding and dispersed.

Chen Jian was also experienced in a hundred battles in his previous life, and now this group of people is a little worse than the group of people who just came out of the mountains and forests back then, and their consciousness is still there.

Zhang Xuan was beaten twice by someone, but the two of them didn't suffer against the four, and they drank so much that they forgot why they were fighting.

Jian Chen looked into the distance, the girl had already disappeared, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, at least she had left an impression on the other party, and she would not easily forget it.

"I said, what did you learn to fight? I still want to go to the theater with you at night, I don't need to watch it, my eyes are swollen, I have to go to the pharmacy to buy some fire and make ice compresses. ”

"Hey, does your dad know the person in charge of the city's population?"

"What, you're looking for that girl?"

"Hmm."

"That's naturally knowing, what's that girl's name?"

"Lin Xi."

"Okay, I'll go back and ask for you."

After a few more words, they made an appointment to see each other the day after tomorrow and dispersed.

When he got home, Chen Siwen was reading a copy of "Astrolabe" with half of his glasses, and saw that Chen Jian's clothes were torn, and asked indifferently, "There was a fight?" ”

"Hmm."

"You didn't use your gun, did you?"

"Nope."

"That's good. Win? ”

"The patrol is gone."

"The little money you gave you in the morning was confiscated again?"

"Yes. I still owe thirty copper plates, and I will pay them tomorrow. ”

"With whom?"

"Shi Lei's few."

"Speaking of his father, I know who he is?"

"His father is a commercial officer."

"Oh."

Chen Siwen beckoned to Jian Chen, and didn't ask more about the fight, and said, "Come here, I'll get you a few books for you to read, don't go to the military academy and don't understand anything." ”

Chen Jian moved over, knelt on the ground, and looked through the catalog, it was either geometry used by artillery, statistics and algebra used by quartermasters, or various formations used by infantry.

The artillery and quartermaster were okay, and the infantry in the back was basically about to become obsolete, and now that the fog had not yet been opened, it could last for thirty or fifty years to fight with spearmen and horizontal musketeers.

Once the fog is opened, there will be no spearmen in the formation for a few decades at most, so don't look at it.

In the current situation, the size of the army is too large, it is too difficult to change, plus the family is general, there is a bunch of shit such as impostors joining the army on the ass, and it is impossible to get involved in politics.

After a few casual glances, he threw the book aside and asked, "Dad, if I don't go to the military academy and admit to the impostor, what is the punishment?" ”

"Punishment? What punishment can there be? For me, it was not an example of a fine of three glasses of wine, and it could even be used as a model for getting lost, and a fine of six hundred silver. For you, mandatory service, start from scratch. ”

"So light?"

"Everyone is like this, it's too heavy and it doesn't look good."

"And what if I want to go to the Navy?"

Chen Siwen tilted his head, looked at his son, and smiled for a long time.

"You? Just you? Do you understand triangles? Will you recognize the stars? Do you know the relationship between waves and islands? Will you climb the mast? Do you use a star-pulling board? Do you look at the star chart? ”

After the ridicule, Chen Siwen pointed to his eyes with unilateral glasses and asked with a smile: "Do you know why your father's eyes wear glass mirrors?" ”
