Tianjin Wei in the evening is the most leisure time of the day.

There is no hot and poisonous sun shining overhead, no need to rush work, after a hard day's work, the sweat on the back has been dried by the evening wind, and the boatmen are all shirtless, sitting on the half-repaired wooden boat to enjoy the cool.

Most of these boatmen left their hometowns and were invited from Quanzhou, Fujian.

At this time, the wife at home has already prepared the food and prepared good wine. If you guess correctly, there will be a plate of steamed dried fish on the dinner table. The wife and children wait for the man to move the dishes first before starting to start.

Thinking of this, these men are a little hungry.

On the pier, a thin man with the same shirtless shirts as them was unloading goods on the shore alone.

Seeing him, many people on the wooden boat immediately stood up and greeted him.

"Brother Hai, Brother Hai."

"Brother Hai, what good things did you bring?"

Liu Hai looked over with a smile, and raised the wine jar in his hand, "I have good wine to drink tonight."

The jar of wine was quickly picked up by several people, and some people sitting in the shade on the wooden boat went to help.

"Don't worry, you guys, be careful to break it." He said.

Several people picked up the wine jug in their hands, sniffed it with their noses, "Brother Hai, you are not being deceived, this is not a good wine." "You are so nice, treat us to a good wine?"

These are of course a joke, Liu Hai ignored the ridicule, and shared the wine with everyone, "Who am I, Liu Hai, and I don't hide my secrets. I think about everyone for all good things."

It was not the first day for everyone to get along, everyone knew Liu Hai's temperament, they all opened the wine jars with smiles, and the wine was poured into the wine bowls.

There are so many of them, the wine is of course not the best wine, otherwise Liu Hai would not be able to afford it out of his own pocket. Even so, everyone still praised sincerely, "Good wine, good wine."

It seems that bangs are very popular, Lin Cheng, who was standing not far away, couldn't help sighing.

Liu Hai's popularity is not because he pretends to be a local tyrant and buys everyone a drink out of his own pocket, but he has a good relationship with the people in the shipyard.

He can eat wherever he goes.

Lin Cheng didn't expect to meet Liu Hai when he came to Tianjin Wei.

Back then, Liu Hai was given to Mr. Zheng to make him useful, and it would be a waste to put it elsewhere. Liu Hai's past was disgraceful, but now it is impressive.

After he returned from the sea with Mr. Zheng, he was recommended by Mr. Zheng to join Tianjin Wei.

"Brother Hai, why don't you drink with us?" Someone asked.

Liu Hai nodded, "Meet a friend." After speaking, he searched around and took a piece of clothing to put on.

What kind of friends, he can only see him after he is dressed so formally, and the boatmen who are familiar with him know that it is not them, they don't need to wear clothes, they can see him shirtless.

I saw Liu Hai walked over and stopped in front of a young man. He bowed and bowed, looking very respectful to the young man.

This time Liu Hai was not like what he said, he was hiding something private.

He took out a jar of wine from behind, "Master Lin, this is fruit wine, let's have two glasses."

Lin Cheng smiled, "Okay, have a drink."

The two sat down cross-legged after finding a place, and Liu Hai poured wine for Lin Cheng with a wine glass.

"I know Master Lin likes to drink fruit wine, and I asked the store to brew it specially. Fortunately, no one found out just now and snatched it away." He talked about the origin of the wine.

Lin Cheng sat down and watched him pour out the sauce-red fruit wine carefully, and poured it into a crystal clear glass. Liu Hai must have found this glass specially.

"It's hard to worry about you."

Liu Hai waved his hand, "My kindness is not as good as Master Lin's kindness to me."

The former Liu Jiang was dead, but now Liu Hai is standing in front of the world. He changed his name but did not change his surname. It is to remind him not to forget his roots. Whether he is a human or a ghost is better than trying to survive like before. Dare to do bad things, and die in vain.

"It's your own credit that you can live what you are today, so don't thank me." Lin Cheng said.

Liu Hai held the poured fruit wine to Lin Cheng with both hands, "Don't say anything else, just say that my wife and children are all under the care of Mr. Lin."

Liu Hai is a man who can make his home without any distractions. What worries him the most is his wife and a pair of children. Over the past few years, Sanniang has settled down in the city of Guangzhou and bought a house with the money he earned from copying books. My brother entered Yushan Academy and studied with Su Juren.

Without Mr. Lin's help, his wife and children would remain anonymous, not daring to reveal their identities to the world, nor would they dare to appear in front of the world openly.

Not to mention reading.

"So I would like to thank Master Lin, otherwise, I would not be able to enter Tianjin Wei to sit here and drink at this moment."

He poured himself a glass of wine, "So, this glass is to express my gratitude to Master Lin."

His tone was sincere, and Lin Cheng accepted his sincerity, "Did Brother Xiao write to tell you that he will take the scientific examination this year?"

This year is the year of the triennial scientific examination.

"Is it a test for talent?" Liu Hai couldn't help asking, "This brother Xiao didn't say that we, father and son, rarely write letters. It's really frustrating to talk about it. My ten years of effort are not as good as yours in a few days."

But Brother Xiao is very happy to be able to participate in the scientific examination this time. He was a Japanese pirate before, and he never planned for the future generations. He would not think about whether his son and grandson would lose a lot more than others because he could not study. Opportunity, he is so selfish, all he thinks about is himself, eating and drinking.

Liu Hai looked at the wine glass in his hand and drank it down. He is not worthy of being a father.

"You are not the only one frustrated." Lin Cheng looked at the wine glass in front of him, and was silent for a moment.

And him, the relationship between him and his father is not good. When he saw his father this time, he moved to Lantern Alley in a fit of anger. On the day he returned home, he found that his father had already returned to the northwest without leaving a word.

It's really a bad topic for these two big men to talk about father and son.

"How did Mr. Lin come to Tianjin Wei this time?" Liu Jiang found another topic to explain.

Lin Cheng didn't hide anything, and told him, "The emperor sent me to take a look."

It turned out to be a holy will, then this involves confidentiality, Liu Hai has been in the rivers and lakes for a long time, and he is very transparent, so he lowered his head and stopped asking.

Liu Hai has a good relationship with the boatman, and Lin Cheng thinks that Liu Hai can be used.

But Liu Hai is cunning by nature, he has been a Japanese pirate, and his nature is not very good. Now he has changed his ways, but his surname is difficult. Although he is kind to Liu Hai, before he decides to employ people, he has a heart of defense and only treats people Said one but not the other.

Lin Cheng finished his glass of fruit wine and left.

Nansong came from outside, and when he came to him, he brought back the latest news from the capital.

"These old foxes in Taiyuan Hospital." Lin Cheng said.

The early summer sunlight was sparsely shining on his face. His fair face was expressionless and his eyes were cold, adding a bit of sternness.

"Second Miss Su has caused a lot of trouble this time." Nan Song looked at Lin Cheng.

He wasn't worried about Second Miss Su, he was worried about his young master, the young master asked him to guard quietly in the capital, that is, guarding Second Miss Su, Second Miss Su is capable, her reputation has spread to the palace, the palace is good Is fame so easy to earn?

It's a blessing, not a disaster, it's a disaster that can't be avoided.

Isn't this causing trouble for their young master?
