"Boys, come and help the old man lead the horse. ”

Hearing this loud and familiar voice, Huo Xiao was also anxious, although his second old man has always insisted on practicing martial arts and paying attention to maintenance on weekdays, but after all, he is over half a hundred years old, how can he get drenched in such a heavy rain?

He immediately ran out with Doudou.

I saw that King Fu's gray hair was wet and dripping with water, and his coarse cloth clothes were all wet, but only one face was red and couldn't see the slightest discomfort.

Doudou let go of Huo Xiao's hand and pulled King Fu into the house, and shouted loudly: "Cai Qing, is your hot water boiled, hurry up and let the old man soak it first and change his clothes." ”

Cai Qing also replied loudly: "It'll be fine soon, I'll go find Brother Shumo and they will come over to get hot water." With that, he picked up his umbrella and ran out.

Doudou complained to King Fu at this time: "What's going on with your old man today, you obviously told me last night that the sky is going to change, and you dare to run around today!"

Last night, Huo Xiaojun, who was standing behind Doudou, had a cold face, and a pair of phoenix eyes looked straight at King Fu. What else don't you understand, the second old man must have asked lentils to steal wine last night!

Even if you steal, you dare to cheat!

King Fu glanced at Huo Xiao with a weak heart, stinky boy, you don't put on a face for Lao Tzu, be careful that I expose you in front of your little daughter-in-law!

He retracted his gaze and looked at Doudou a few more times, quite angry, little girl, how could you sell the old man so stupidly?

However, in the end, he could only clear his throat and say, "Little girl, guess what the old man brought you back today?"

Doudou didn't want to be mixed with him, so he deliberately glared at him and said, "Old man, no matter what you bring, it's not worth it for you to go to the rain, you hurry up and take a hot bath, and I'll talk about something later." ”

Huo Xiao still looked at King Fu without saying a word. He also wanted to hear how the second old man explained today's running around.

King Fu also glared at Huo Xiao like Doudou and said: "Didn't Lao Tzu think that you would rarely come to the racecourse, how could you have to do a little bit of landlord friendship, I heard that there was beef today, so I went to get some." Who knew that it would be raining so much!"

While a few people were talking, Shumo also walked in with Cai Qing. When Cai Sang heard that King Fu was talking about beef, he couldn't help but run to his side and said, "What? Old man Wang, you actually went to get beef today, and you got ......."

Looking at her admiration with a trace of unbearable look, Doudou, Fuwang, and Huo Xiao all couldn't understand it, what did she mean by this?

Shumo Shuyan was busy delivering hot water and couldn't interject, but Cai Qing came over and looked at King Fu with the same eyes as Cai Sang and said, "Old man, did you really go by yourself?"

King Fu is even stranger. He stroked his wet beard and said, "Of course the old man went by himself, and if I don't believe you two, I will go and take the coat I put on horseback, and the beef is inside." ”

As if they were in a hurry to prove something, Cai Qing and Cai Sang hurriedly ran out with their umbrellas again.

Doudou and Huo Xiao said in unison: "What the hell is going on?"

King Fu shrugged and said: "Didn't I just go to get some beef, and I was afraid that the meat would be drenched when it rained on the road, so I wrapped it in the coat I borrowed from others, so I got drenched in the rain, what's so strange about it." ”

In fact, he was not telling the truth, he had only been drenched in a little rain before returning to the cabin.

Today, although he told the guard dressed as a pony boy that he would go and get the beef himself, he actually asked another guard to go to the other courtyard to get the beef. He just rode his horse to talk to another old horse keeper not far away.

learned from the dark guard that Huo Xiao and the others had arrived home, so he rode back slowly with the beef, just to avoid making Doudou suspicious. It just had to rain a little.

Soon, Cai Qing Cai Sang took the cloth into the house, opened it and saw that it was indeed a piece of beef about ten catties, as well as some beef hoof tendons and tripe, and even a large bag of seasonings commonly used to make beef.

"Old man, you are really godly, you actually match all the seasonings. Doudou was simply shocked, the old man said that he was born in a big family, and he has been a jade food since he was a child, but he didn't expect him to know what seasonings are needed to cook.

King Fu smiled proudly: "Little girl, I found beef." You're going to show me your hand today. In the evening, I will make a beef offal soup first, and the braised beef is also very good. The most important thing is to get me more beef jerky last time, and I can eat it slowly when you leave. ”

Doudou was also amused by him. It turns out that Mr. Wang likes to eat beef so much. But it's really hard for him, it's hard to get beef in Dazhou, and this time he must be able to satisfy his cravings.

Huo Xiao looked coldly at the lively performance of his second old man, and almost wanted to applaud him.

Can you pretend to be a little more like? Beef is rare for commoners, but you are a dignified prince, with countless cultivated cattle in the grange under your name, and beef offal soup, braised beef, and beef jerky, you want to exhaust the lentils to death!

Cai Sang couldn't hold back anymore: "Old man Wang, you ......"

Where did King Fu still have the heart to deal with Cai Sang, patted Huo Xiao on the shoulder and said: "Lao Tzu is going to take a bath and change clothes, you guys get lunch first, everyone must be hungry." He walked out without looking back.

Doudou said to the two maids, "What do you mean?"

Although Huo Xiao didn't speak, he was obviously very interested in this, and turned his head to look at Cai Qing and Cai Sang, waiting for them to answer.

Cai Qing hurriedly replied: "Girl, young master, didn't we go to the village to buy vegetables today, on the way back, I heard that a ploughing cow broke its ribs, and the broken bones were directly inserted into the heart and lungs, and it couldn't be saved at all." Li Zheng said that the weather was too hot and he was afraid that the beef would spoil, so he asked the villagers to dispose of the beef first, and then they reported it to the yamen. ”

Cai Sang interjected: "Yes, we saw many villagers carrying knives and saying that they were going to grab beef, Brother Shuyan also said that we should go too, Brother Shumo also scolded him, how many years have those villagers only taken the turn to eat beef, not to mention that people are carrying knives to rob fiercely, and it is not good if one is accidentally injured by someone." Later, we didn't go to join in the fun and came back directly, but we didn't expect to encounter such a heavy rain. ”

Doudou was shocked again, and said in disbelief: "According to the two of you, Old Man Wang went to grab beef today, and he robbed so many ......" Before she finished speaking, her little face was wrinkled together.

Cai Qing Cai Sang said in unison: "It must be robbed, I haven't heard of any beef anywhere in this neighborhood today." ”

Huo Xiao looked at the three girls on the side, and secretly laughed in his heart, Second old man, you pretended to be a hero this time! )
