July is on fire, and August is not young.

July 6 is a rare good day in this month. The courtyard of the Zhou family ushered in a lively festival that it had not experienced for a long time.

Early in the morning, Zhu Gui, the new owner of Lingshan Pharmacy, dressed up and instructed the guys to clean up the inside and outside of the store, put flower baskets outside the store, and invited the most famous opera troupe in Qinzhou City to sing a big drama in the empty field outside the store. This Qinzhou people usually like to roar the Qin dialect the most, just because the high-pitched singing voice is the easiest to express the emotions of the fierce Qin people, so the adults and children in Qinzhou like to roar and sing the Qin dialect very much. As the gongs and drums sounded, half of the people in the southern city were attracted to it, and the stage was really crowded. Some small traders and hawkers also took advantage of the situation to start trading. All of a sudden, it was really an empty alley, and it was very lively. Zhu Gui also set up a long tent in the open space outside the store, and a group of people arranged dishes outside the tent, and arranged tables and chairs in the tent to prepare to entertain neighbors and guests

Because they have already sent wedding cards to the relevant pharmacies in the city, many pharmacies and nearby neighbors came to congratulate them just after breakfast. Of course, there are also many people related to Zhangshan County in the state city, and when I heard that there are people from Yuanshan County who have opened a store here, many people come to congratulate them. Zhu Gui was busy greeting guests, and he was a little sweaty. But he was tired and happy.

Because the store opened today, and at the same time, it also carried out reward activities, all those who entered the store today to buy medicines were converted according to seven, and sure enough, the store was crowded, so lively.

At noon, I saw a group of people carrying a huge flower basket. The basket was as big as a basket (1), and the sturdy men with umbrellas pinned to their waists showed all their strength to feed.

Zhu Gui saw that a guest was coming, and hurriedly greeted him, but saw that the leader was the narrow-faced man a few days ago, and the man looked at Zhu Gui strangely and said: "The brothers were offended a lot last time, and today I am a special flower basket on the order of the sixth master of Ma, and I will congratulate you." ”

Zhu Gui didn't refuse, so he smiled and said: "It's hard to break the money for Brother Ha, please drink inside!"

Who knew that the pug showed a brutal spirit and said: "Wait, the show is still to come." I'll give you a heavenly maiden to scatter flowers!" Before he finished speaking, the men next to him hurriedly took out their umbrellas and opened them, and after the pug finished speaking, he put his hand under the flower basket and groped for a long time, when he suddenly heard a snorting sound, and the pungent smell of gunpowder was everywhere. And all the people around them hurried out to hide.

But Zhu Gui and the others had calm faces and made a waiting posture.

I saw that the sound stopped in vain, and the people around me held their breath, and the surroundings were surprisingly quiet, and even the singing stopped on the stage. The pug had a mocking look on his face.

At this time, I heard a bang, and saw that the huge flower basket spread violently, and rushed up from the center of the flower to a wave of flowers, the flower wave rushed five or six feet high, and then spread out, instantly scattered countless flowers around, it was really fragrant, refreshing. When the surrounding people saw this wonder, they couldn't help but clap their hands. The pugs were holding their hands up, pinching their noses, and holding back their breath. When everyone saw them so funny, they couldn't help but laugh. At the same time, the same muffled sound was heard across the street from the courtyard of the Zhou family.

Looking at Haliu and these people, they thought they were prepared, but they didn't expect that it was raining flowers, and there was a fragrance of flowers around, they were all dumbfounded, looking at the flowers all over the ground, with an incredible look on their faces. The pug was even more angry and opened the flower basket, and the flower basket was almost dismantled, but he didn't find what he wanted, so he raised his eyes, looked at his group stupidly, kicked down one of them as soon as he raised his foot, and shouted hoarsely: "What's going on?"

Zhu Gui hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed the hand of the dog and said: "Brother Ha's gift today is the best, I have never seen such a good congratulatory gift in my life, please sit inside." ”

As he spoke, he pulled the pug and walked under the greenhouse, just like an eagle dragging a chicken, and the others were invited into the greenhouse by a few people next to Zhu Gui, among whom there was a guy with a pig's waist face, who seemed to be the most attentive.

At the same time, a person in the crowd in the pharmacy suddenly screamed, and then he convulsed, fell to the ground and rolled his eyes, and the people around him were so frightened that they immediately dispersed and formed a circle, and then a sissy shouted: "Oh no, the pharmacy of the Yama Pharmacy eats dead people." Before the words fell, I saw a handsome boy walk out of the crowd, walked directly to the unconscious man, stretched out his hand to help him up, stretched out his hand on his back a little, and saw that the man took a long breath, his eyes opened, his eyes were clear, and he was a good man. When the people around saw this, they clapped their hands again.

The sissy had an ugly face, and she wanted to get out of the crowd while people were unprepared. At this moment, I saw a man running wildly. whispered in his ear, and saw that the sissy's face changed abruptly, and quickly pulled away from the crowd of onlookers, and ran towards the house after retreating.
