Chapter 184, Uncle Jin is here
One hundred and eighty-four, Uncle Jin is here
I looked at the big pearl in the young man's hand in a daze, and I didn't react for a while.
Damn, I knew that this little seedling could bear such a thing, and I couldn't let it bear fruit in front of this group of people, but now it's good, it's too late to regret it.
It's just that ......, Old Chen didn't tell me before that a plum seed can grow a superb pearl? Could it be ...... Is this a genetic mutation?
"Let go!"
Just when I was thinking nonsense, the young man in the lead turned around and put away the pearl, raised his hand and waved it lightly, and Zhan Zhao and Chen Jinnan immediately appeared in the crowd.
The two of them were followed by Bai Yutang, but he looked like he had fought with the other party, and there was a small bruise on the corner of his mouth, which he knew at a glance that it was left by a fight.
"Okay boy, let's write off this account, let's go!" The young man threw the IOU to me, turned and walked out the door, looking up with his back a little triumphant, and the young men behind him seemed to be in good spirits.
In the blink of an eye, these young people disappeared at the door of the chess and card room.
Looking at the disappearing backs of these people, I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and then I tore the IOU in my hand to shreds.
Holy, it's exciting.
"Xiao Xia, I ......." Chen Jinnan walked up to me and looked at me with a guilty expression.
"Okay, Brother Chen, let's go back and talk about it." I interrupted him with a smile, picked up the flower pot and turned to leave.
Chen Jinnan and Zhanzhao didn't say much, they followed me.
But before I could walk out of the door of the chess and card room, a shrill voice suddenly sounded behind me: "You guys are just leaving?" ”
I was stunned, turned to look, and saw an old woman with grease and powder appearing behind several of us.
The old woman looked to be around forty years old, with a slightly chubby body in a simple pajamas, a few inferior hairpins in her messy hair, and if she had a large cigarette in her mouth, she would be the charter wife in Zhou Xingxing's movie.
"You call me?" I asked, pointing to myself.
"Nonsense, the old lady doesn't call you a ghost!" The old woman yelled angrily.
"You...... What's the matter? I looked at her and asked cautiously.
The old woman stretched out her hand to me and shouted, "Give money!" ”
"Give money?" I looked at her suspiciously, "What money?" ”
"You play cards with me, do you give me money? Don't you give me money for tea? Do you gather a crowd here with me to make trouble and interfere with my business, and don't you give me money? Are you stealing a flower pot from me and not giving you money? The old woman yelled and came up to grab the flower pot from my hand as she spoke.
I dodged her clutches as soon as I saw the situation, and looked at her with a smile on my face, "Uh......, what's that...... Big...... Sister, eldest sister, what you said is so reasonable, we should give money! ”
"Then hurry up and give the money!" The old woman stared at the flower pot in my hand and shouted.
Looking at her posture, I also know that this old lady must have seen me planting seedlings somewhere before, otherwise it would be impossible to stare directly at the flower pot in my hand at this time, with a posture of wanting to snatch it.
I didn't say anything more, I took out a few red bills from my pocket and handed them to her, "Sister, give you money!" ”
"Not enough!" The old woman didn't look at the red money in my hand and screamed.
"What's that...... Eldest sister, you can take a good look, this money is enough for you to open a chess and card room for a few days. I shook the red money in my hand.
"Not enough!" The old woman stared at the flower pot in my hand.
"What about you...... How much are you going to want? I asked tentatively.
"Not enough!" The old woman is like she has fallen into an evil spirit, and she can only say these two words.
Damn, this is obviously a slander!
I glanced at Zhan Zhao, Zhan Zhao understood, and raised my hand to the back of the old woman's neck, and after a blow, the old woman suddenly fainted to the ground without saying a word.
"Hmph, play tricks with me, you're still tender!"
I pursed my lips disdainfully, turned around and walked out of the chess and card room.
Zhan Zhao and Chen Jinnan didn't speak, and walked out the door after me.
On the way back, I have been thinking about the fact that the seeds of the plum tree grow pearls, and you said that if the land lord is here, I am not surprised that even if I plant a cash cow, but this is the seed that I just asked for from the plum tree spirit, and the small seedlings that grow can produce such a big pearl, this thing is too strange, right?
No, when I go back and wait for Old Chen Tou'er to come back, I have to find him and say, I have passed more than 20 years since I was a child, which is good, in just a few months, I have disrupted the worldview I established before, and I have to rebuild, where do I have so much time!
Despise him!
I held the flower pot and thought all the way, and finally returned to the Yuelai Inn.
"Shopkeeper, you're back!" As soon as I walked into the inn, Sun Erniang greeted me.
I looked at her strangely, "What's wrong Erniang, did something happen?" ”
"It's not." Sun Erniang raised her hand as she spoke, "Shopkeeper, someone is looking for you." ”
"Looking for me?" I followed her hand and looked over, and saw an old man sitting at a wooden table in the lobby of the inn, drinking hot tea alone, looking a little fairy-like.
I was slightly stunned and took a closer look, hey, I know this person, isn't this Uncle Jin?!
"Uncle Kim!" I smiled and said hello and walked closer.
Uncle Jin raised his head and looked at me and smiled slightly, then looked at the three people who followed me, and finally landed on the flower pot in my hand again, and asked with a smile: "I said Xiao Xia, are you going to the flower and bird market?" ”
I smiled and said casually: "Hehe......, it's okay to cultivate some hobbies!" What's ......, Uncle Jin, why do you have time to come? ”
"Xiao Xia, your inn is really hard to find, if it weren't for my old friend to show me the way, I really wouldn't be able to find it!" Uncle Jin said as he took another sip of tea.
"Old friend?" I was slightly stunned, and then I understood who he was talking about, and the old friend he was talking about must be the old man Bai of the martial arts society.
"Xiao Xia, these two should be the young people my old friend said, right?" Uncle Jin slowly put down the teacup in his hand, and asked me while looking at Zhan Zhao and Chen Jinnan.
"Hey......." I laughed for a while, raised my hand and introduced: "Uncle Jin, this is my eldest cousin, this is my cousin." ”
Uncle Jin looked at Zhan Zhao and Chen Jinnan, nodded with a slight smile and said, "It is worthy of the person that President Bai likes, not bad, not bad!" After speaking, he turned his head and looked at Bai Yutang again, "Then who is this ......?" ”
"Uh......, he's my cousin, and he's my cousin." I thought about it for a moment and replied casually.
These people are acquaintances of Zhanzhao and Bai Yutang, if they don't have a relationship with the two of them, they are sorry that they knew each other before.
"Hmm!" Uncle Jin nodded slowly, didn't ask much, turned his head to look at me, "Xiao Xia!" ”
"Uncle Jin, you say." I hurried forward.
"Where's your little cousin?" Uncle Jin looked at me with a smile and asked.
I was stunned for a moment, and instantly understood who he was asking.
Little cousin? In addition to Li Yuanba, who can make trouble, which little cousin do I have?
I smiled and replied casually: "My cousin is tired of school these days, so I asked my buddies to take him out for a walk." ”
"Tired of school?" Uncle Jin looked at me curiously.
"Hmm." I nodded.
Uncle Jin thought I was joking with him, but after looking at me for a long time, he realized that I didn't seem to be joking with him anymore, so he couldn't help but be slightly stunned, looked at me in confusion and asked, "What the hell is going on?" ”
I smiled bitterly and added fuel to Li Yuanba's story, of course, I can't tell him Li Yuanba's true identity, otherwise this old man will definitely ask questions endlessly.
