Chapter 016: The Praying Mantis Catches Cicadas, but the Yellow Sparrow is behind

The patrol is only a symbolic walk around the street to see if anyone gathers to make trouble, or openly robs, and so on. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Of course, Yao Xian understands better, but whenever they really encounter these things, they wish they could flash quickly, or stand on whichever side is stronger, they are the most capable of saying that the dead are alive and the living are dead.

When they get to the junction, the patrols disperse and go to their respective streets, which is also their favorite thing to do, and then they will definitely find their favorite place and mix for a day.

"We'll have to wait for this good show, but I'll tell you something interesting first, have a cup of tea?" Yao Yan asked what Meng meant.

Chu Meng looked her up and down, and said with a smile: "You don't look very old, and today's acquaintance is also fate, you say the book, I'll listen, by the way, the tea money is also on my head." ”

He was very polite, Yao Xian somehow, obviously the first time they met, he didn't know his name, but he just thought this person was good.

She found a place to sit down, asked for a pot of tea, and began to tell the story.

"Now in this world, people's hearts are very bad--- Yao Xi took a sip of tea, his face was full of disgust: "I encountered another one today, it was the matter of Wei Ji Pavilion, in the morning, a poor family went there to see a doctor, and there was no money on them, so the woman took a delicate hairpin to cover the medical expenses-----"

She took another sip of tea, looked at Chu Meng and said angrily: "Guess what, they didn't take credit and didn't rob it, okay, don't say that they stole it, this big brother, you dare to take it out and use it? ”

Chu Meng was amused by her jealous and hateful appearance, and poured another bowl of tea for Yao Shi, "Wei Ji Pavilion is also famous and famous here, and ordinary people can't fight at all." ”

"It's not ----," Yao Yan touched the tea bowl, "The shopkeeper kept claiming that the family was a thief, and said that the hairpin was dropped by him, if there was such a coincidence in the world, I would have made a fortune a long time ago." ”

Chu Meng's eyes were thoughtful, but he persuaded: "Forget it, this is someone else's business, what can you do if you are angry again, don't get along with yourself." ”

"Selling sugar gourds---- selling sugar gourds-----"

Yao Xian's eyes stared at the old man of the sugar gourd, and muttered, "Yes, what does it have to do with me." ”

Chu Meng looked at her greedy appearance, her big eyes flickered and stared at the sugar gourd, which was cute, as if she wanted to pounce on her.

"If you want to eat---- wait. He got up and called the old candy seller.

Yao Xian once again affirmed his vision in his heart, these days, good people are rare.

She cupped her cheeks and muttered to herself: "If this is me, I can say that the hairpin was dropped by me, and it is a jade hairpin worth several taels of silver." ”

Chu Meng came back with a sugar gourd, saw her muttering, and asked, "What did you say?"

Yao Yan shook his head, looked at the sugar gourd and smiled happily: "It's nothing." ”

After eating the sugar gourd and drinking the tea, Yao Shi got up: "Let's go, take you to the play." ”

Chu Meng's eyes were slightly raised, he shook his head helplessly and smiled, and followed.

As soon as the two left, the person at the tea stall next to Yao Xian's table also threw two copper plates on the table and left.

"Slow down, come back next time---- shopkeeper shouted with a smile, and when the people were far away, he put away the copper coins on the table and scolded: "Don't come again next time---- black-hearted one, and only give two pennies." ”

Yao Xi took Chu Meng to wander around the two nearby streets, and Chu Meng looked at her from time to time, looking like he wanted to speak and stopped.

"Just say what you have to say, I don't have any secrets. ”

Chu Meng smiled slightly, "I see that you are a big ghost, wandering around the street like this, and I wonder what kind of show you want to take me to watch." ”

"I'll find out if I follow. Yao Yan grinned, his cheeks, which were a little red from the sun, looked like a freshly blooming flower.

Chu Meng was stunned and smiled unconsciously.

Yao Xian thought he was going to urge, and said again and again: "It's almost there, it's almost there, what's the hurry, no, it's just ahead." ”

Chu Meng looked in the direction she pointed and was puzzled: "The good show you said is in the Wei Ji Pavilion?"

"Of course, otherwise why did I say so much just now, let's go, the time should be just right. ”

When the two came to the Wei Ji Pavilion, some people had already gathered at the door, and everyone looked around, obviously something interesting had happened.

"What's going on here, why are you even here to catch heads?"

"It seems that they are here to catch thieves, isn't it talking about thieves here this morning----"

The people around were discussing the current situation in a low voice, and the shopkeeper of Wei Ji Pavilion looked at the awe-inspiring head catcher in front of him, and asked blankly: "Poor master, are you ---- here to grab medicine?"

The head catcher shouted angrily: "Lao Tzu is not sick to catch any medicine, Lao Tzu is here to catch thieves-----" He looked around and asked again: "I heard that there were thieves here in the morning?"

The shopkeeper's heart was beating suddenly, and he was a little weak, it was only a little big in the morning, so he wouldn't be alarmed to come here.

"It turns out that the poor master is here to catch the thief, this is not a coincidence, the person came in the morning, the small one found the stolen things, and said that God has the virtue of a good life, and the little one let them go, I believe they will definitely change their ways. ”

The head catcher was overjoyed, and asked quietly on his face: "What did they steal is a jade hairpin?"

The shopkeeper didn't understand why the head catcher knew that it was a jade hairpin, so he could only nod his head in affirmation: "It is indeed a jade hairpin, it is a small ---."

He wanted to say that he bought it for his aunt's wife, but the head catcher didn't give him a chance to finish.

"Damn thief, I caught him for a few days, but he still slipped away, but fortunately, the hairpin was found, you take the hairpin out, I will return it to the owner. ”

The shopkeeper was stunned, and said a little sneeringly: "Poor master, the hairpin ---- is mine." ”

The head catcher turned pale and glared angrily: "Are you sure the hairpin is yours?" You take it out and let me see, if they really steal your hairpin, how can they be stupid to come to you to use it, I'm afraid you are old and dizzy, I see it wrong." ”

This makes sense, in fact, everyone understands that the shopkeeper of Wei Jiguan just wants to make a hairpin, but the excuse is very lame.

Originally, no one intervened, and this matter was over, but now the head catcher actually said that he was also looking for the hairpin, not to mention whether it was true, the other party was from the yamen, and he didn't have the courage to resist, so in the end he took out the hairpin.

The attitude of the shopkeeper, the head catcher became more and more affirmative, and he said in his heart that his trick of praying mantis catching cicadas and yellow finches was really clever in the back, and it was thanks to him drinking tea at the tea stall that he heard such good news.

He pretended to look at the hairpin carefully, and only after a while did he affirm: "This hairpin is indeed as described in the mouth of the lost owner, although the hairpin was found, but the thief ran away, you have seen the thief, pay attention to it, if you catch the thief, the county master will definitely reward him at that time." ”

They all moved out of the county master, and the shopkeeper was very aggrieved, and the fat that was so easy to get to his mouth was snatched from his mouth.

Even if he has tens of millions of grievances, he has nothing to do, so he can only pretend to be stupid: "Looking at it this way, it is indeed that I am wrong, the poor master is wise, my eyes are not good, and the hairpin is too similar to the one I lost, so I admit that I am wrong." ”

The head catcher smiled and brought the hairpin: "Finally, you have found the hairpin, I will explain the situation to the owner." ”

Yao Shi saw the opportunity, and Hula rushed out of the crowd and rushed to the Wei Ji Pavilion.

Luo Meng only felt that the person next to him disappeared like a gust of wind, and when he reacted, Yao Shi had already entered the Wei Ji Pavilion, and he hurriedly followed.
