Chapter 616: Great Young Master
Yang Xianmao stopped, turned to look at Fluttershy, and said, "What's the matter, girl?" ”
Fluttershy pouted and said, "Madame, it's not appropriate to take care of the fetish, given the tattered clothes you are wearing, let me ask the tailor to make you a set of clothes right away, and you come with me to meet the tailor and tailor it for you." ”
Yang Xianmao's own set of clothes, although it is a coarse cloth, but there are no patches, and it is not dirty, it is considered good to wear among ordinary people, better than many people in the front yard, how can he deliberately make two sets of clothes for himself, but since his wife has this meaning, Yang Xianmao will certainly not refuse, so he asked Liu Dongyan to go back to the room to clean up, and he followed Fluttershy to the tailor's side.
When the butler saw that a storm had disappeared, he breathed a sigh of relief and went back to his own business.
Walking on the road, Fluttershy asks Yang Xianmao, "You have a big temper, no one has ever dared to say that you can leave, because the monthly money we give back home is several times higher than that of other villages, especially you, you still have meat to eat, how can there be such good conditions and treatment in other villages, but you can't look down on it." By the way, I heard that you are a Taoist priest, do you really regard money as dung after becoming a monk, so why do you come to work?"
Yang Xianmao said: "I just don't want to bend my waist for five buckets of rice." ”
Fluttershy was a little surprised, slowed down, and looked at him and said, "I can't see that you still have a good mouth, you have read books before?"
Yang Xianmao said: "I have read poetry books for a few years, but I shouldn't be blind, and I don't have the ability to take it to the stage." ”
Yang Xianmao's words caused Fluttershy to snort, look at him and say, "Okay, I'll admit that you're really different from the other slaves, even if I was wrong, I'll apologize to you, don't be angry with me." ”
Yang Xianmao also showed a smile and said: "The girl is serious, we should not be so angry when we are rushing around to make a living, we are originally under the fence, what kind of face do we have." ”
Fluttershy pauses, pouts and says, "You're still blaming me for saying that, can't I apologize to you?"
Yang Xianmao said: "The girl is polite, I am telling the truth. ”
"Okay, okay, let's not talk about that, by the way, let me ask you, are you married?"
Speaking of this question, Yang Xianmao's heart couldn't help but hurt, and his eyes suddenly flashed with his wife and concubine a hundred years ago, as well as his confidantes Xia Yinhua and Jima, who were forced to break up not long ago, should he nod his head or shake his head at this question?
Seeing that his expression was gloomy, Fluttershy seemed to have something unspeakable, and hurriedly said, "If it's inconvenient to say it, don't say it, it's okay, I'll just ask." By the way, I heard from the butler that you jumped all the way from such a long place with two large iron cylinders containing fetishes, and you barely stopped on the way, and your strength is really great. We have invited several people to take care of the fetish, none of them can compare with you, and the lord appreciates the most is that you are still a monk, kind-hearted, and know the roots, so the lord said, you are the most satisfied one among these people, so let the lady let me ask you to make a set of clothes as a reward, you must know that this is a treatment that has never been before, not only the few people who took care of the feticultural objects before did not have such treatment, not to mention, the general hired people, even if they are good and satisfied, the lord has never let a single dress as a reward, you are the first in history, just chong the lord is so good to you, you have to take good care of the fetish, to repay the care of the master. ”
Yang Xianmao said: "Of course, I'm curious, why didn't you invite a few later?"
"It's not that they won't be invited, the most important thing is that they can't do it anymore, and two of them can't do it anymore. ”
"Can't do it, what do you mean?"
"Because they're dead. The two of them carried the vat, but they couldn't lift it on the road, and the vat fell to the ground and fell over, and as a result, the water was spilled, and the fetish died without water. The artifact will die soon after leaving the water, and ordinary water will not work, it must be the kind of water with chicken blood and duck blood. The lord and his wife were very angry, so they beat them up and sent them to the official office for punishment, and they died in the yamen. ”
Yang Xianmao frowned and said, "Can't two people lift it? ”
"Yes, that's why the lord is so satisfied with you, because the housekeeper said that you pick alone along the way, and you hardly rest, this strength is what the lord values the most. Because every time you have to carry the big water tank through the corner gate of the small courtyard, only you have that strength. ”
"I'm a little curious, why don't you ask a few more people to carry it, and you can carry it slowly. ”
"It's not as simple as you think, this artifact is a treasure, the less people know about it, the better. Moreover, the fetish is very afraid of life, and when there are more people, the noise of people and the chaotic sound of footsteps will scare him, and once it scares him, it will struggle like crazy, and finally crash into the tank itself. This thing is weird, so every time it is sent to the room, it is sent in the dead of night, and it will be sent back before dawn, and the road you take during this period, any ordinary maid is absolutely not allowed to enter, so as not to bump into you and disturb the divine object, which no one can afford. ”
Yang Xianmao finally understood, no wonder the housekeeper on the road always told everyone not to speak, not to make noise, only to walk quietly forward, and let the people who follow him stay away from him, and he can only go on the road at night and rest during the day, originally he thought that it was because he was afraid of heat stroke because of the daytime poison, and he walked at night, but he didn't expect to be afraid of disturbing this vampire frog.
Yang Xianmao was tempted to ask Fluttershy what the vampire frog was for, but she swallowed it again, it was supposed to be a very secret thing, and it might not be a good thing to ask.
They arrive at the tailor's house, where there are several tailors who are responsible for the clothes in the inner and outer houses of the village, and after Fluttershy introduces them to Yang Xianmao, they all come to see Yang Xianmao.
When they heard that the master personally ordered him to make a shirt, they knew that the person in front of them should be appreciated by the master, but they could not be offended. So one of the best tailors, the old tailor who made clothes for Mrs. Neizhai came over and measured Yang Xianmao's size, and then asked him to pick it up two days later.
When the clothes are ready, they leave the tailor's house.
As she walked out, she heard screams and whips crackling on something, and Fluttershy whispered with a look of disgust on her face, "This guy with a short memory is back." ”
Yang Xianmao didn't ask who she was talking about, but Fluttershy took the initiative to tell Yang Xianmao this time: "It's our eldest young master, named Gui Biao, who was originally a very knowledgeable person, but soon after getting married, somehow his temperament changed drastically, calling friends all day long, eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling, spending extravagantly, not doing his job, making the old man mad, and trying to kick him out of the house several times." The wife was still too soft-hearted, and begged the master to leave him behind. But he still didn't change his will, and his wife and master didn't give him money, so that he wouldn't do anything outside, but he went outside to borrow money, and the creditors came to the door to ask for it, and the old man lost all his face. Hey, listen, as soon as he comes back from prostitution, gambling and drunkenness, he will find the slaves outside, either with a whip or with a foot, and I don't know which slave suffered. ”
At this time, there was the sound of horses' hooves, Yang Xianmao looked up, and saw a man in a brocade robe riding a tall horse, he was swaying on the horse, as if he was about to fall down at any time, turning the corner of the house, and rushing all the way to this side. He was followed by a few small guys, who followed closely and jogged, and shouted: "Be careful, don't fall off the horse, young master." ”
Seeing the horse rushing towards them, Yang Xianmao turned sideways to the side of the road, but Fluttershy stood in the middle of the road with her waist crossed, and when the horse rushed in front of him, the brocade-robed flower on the horse stopped the horse, squinted her eyes, looked at it for a while, and said, "I should be the one who dares to stop my horse with no eyes, it turns out to be Fluttershy." Okay, I've heard calluses in my ears from your set, you get out of the way, I'm drunk and want to go back to sleep, last night I was busy all night in the Qixian Building, drinking with a few singers, those singers not only sang well, but also drank well, drunk Lao Tzu, almost didn't recognize the girl, if it hurt you, I don't want to go, hahaha. ”
Fluttershy's eyes widened as she said, "Since you know what I'm going to tell you, you should know that these words are what the old lady told you repeatedly." You are the eldest son in the family, and the entire family business will be inherited by you in the future, how can the old lady relax and hand over the huge family property to you? I really don't want to report what you have done now to the old lady, I am afraid that they will be sad, so you can save the old lady's worries, you can't stay at home well, even if you don't study to take advantage of your fame, you can help the old man take care of the business, and the old man will not be angry. ”
Gui Biao said: "I said I know, what are you talking about?" As soon as he said this, he stared at Yang Xianmao with drunken eyes: "Who are you?" ”
Fluttershy says, "When I talk to you, you always divert from the subject. This is our new steward who takes care of the artifact, named Yang Xianmao, a Taoist priest, and has great strength. The housekeeper said that he alone picked up two sacred objects from such a distant Taoist temple to his home, and they carried the entire large iron cylinder containing the sacred objects from the small courtyard to the inner house. ”
"Oh, there is a lot of strength, and if you want to take care of the gods, you have to have a lot of strength. The big iron tank containing the gods is difficult for two big men with big shoulders and round waists to lift, and you can carry such a heavy water tank by yourself, I sound a little mysterious. Okay, I'm drunk, I'll come to you another day to see if you really have the ability to do that. If this is the case, you will follow me and make sure that you eat and drink spicy food. ”
Speaking of which, Gui Biao didn't care whether Yang Xianmao agreed or not, and with a volley of horsewhips, he drunkenly said to Fluttershy in front of him, "Miss Fluttershy, I'm drunk, I'm going back to sleep, and I'll listen to your lesson another day." ”
With that, he flicks his horse's head around Fluttershy, and the boys nod and greet Fluttershy, and chase after her. Fluttershy sighs helplessly as she looks at Gui Biao in the distance.
