Cuihua's grave added new soil, it should be Zhu Fuguipei's, Zhao Liumao also held the soil to cultivate, and heard Ah Gou say to Cuihua: "Aunt Cuihua, Ah Dog misses you, Ah Dog has no new clothes to wear-"

Zhao Liumao's tears burst out in an instant, and he quickly turned around, biting his lip tightly to prevent himself from making a sound. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

"Aunt Cuihua, Ah Dog is going to help Daddy work in the teahouse, Ah Dog can't come to see you often, don't blame Ah Gou-"

The wildflowers on the grave swayed gently in the wind, Zhao Liumao wiped his eyes twice, and led Ah Gou back slowly.

Wang Yaoting, the eldest young master of the Wang family, failed the trial, and closed the door after returning to the village, Wang Dashan was not happy, and he came to the teahouse less, until the second young master of the Wang family, Wang Canhui, also reached the age of the county test, and Wang Dashan gradually became happy again.

Ah Dog grew up day by day, and he was exposed to it in the rich teahouse every day, and he was able to sell tea when he was four years old. The ordinary overnight cold tea made in a pot was a penny a bowl, and most of it was drunk by passing peddlers and pawns. Fresh tea is two pieces and a bowl, and saliva customers love this the most. Wang Dashanren's favorite sencha for 20 wen a pot, the taste is weird, and he is the only one in the teahouse who likes it. Further up is good tea, Longjing is forty wen a pot, Biluochun is thirty wen a bowl, except for Wang Dashan, no one in the village can afford to drink such tea. Young Master Jinbao never stayed in the teahouse for a long time, as long as the rich man turned around, he would take the money out, and the rich master always scolded him.

Zhu Fugui's thoughts about Ah Gou are very complicated, Ah Gou has been very sensible since he was a child, he has hardly caused him trouble in his teahouse, and his well-behaved appearance is also very amusing to the tea guests, but Zhu Fugui felt panicked when he saw Ah Gou.

Another three years have passed, Wang Yaoting, the eldest young master of the Wang family, went to the township again to try, Zhu Jinbao followed him to see the world, and came back to boast to Zhu Fugui about how lively it was outside, and our teahouse earned too little, so it was better to change it into a tavern. Zhu Fugui thought about it, since Cuihua went, the teahouse business was not as good as a year, and he had also lasted for so long, and if the teahouse continued to open, he was afraid that he would lose everything, and he also moved this thought in his heart. That Wang Yaoting failed the township test this time, and his teacher Zhang Xiucai also did not win, and the people in the village didn't dare to say it in front of Wang Dashan, so they turned around and said that reading was a fart.

After a few days, the Fugui Teahouse was replaced with a new plaque, called the Fugui Tavern, and the old signboard of the teahouse, Zhu Fugui, was not willing to throw it away, nor was he willing to split it, but carefully put it away. Zhu Jinbao has reached the age of marrying a daughter-in-law, no matter how much he doesn't wake up, he is still Zhu Fugui's son, but his son is just that good, whose girl can look up to him?

Zhu Fugui has kept the side house, and he will go in and wipe it if he has nothing to do, but Zhu Jinbao and Zhu are different. Zhu Jinbao fell in love with a girl from Gaojiatai in the neighboring township at the market, but the girl didn't look down on him, but Zhu Jinbao was cheeky and ran to Gaojiatai every once in a while. The girl's family is a rich peasant, and Zhu Fugui is also a good match, Zhu's health has not been very good in recent years, and he always shouts to hug his grandson, Zhu Fugui also hopes to promote this family business, what Jinbao wants, everything follows him. Zhu Jinbao thought that the side house was in the way, and wanted to demolish it, and the Zhu family also thought that the house was unlucky, and the mother and son sang and harmonized, Zhu Fugui couldn't stand it, so he changed it into a firewood room, demolished and leveled the original firewood room, and built a small attic in the courtyard, planning to use it for Jinbao in the future.

The Eight Immortal Gu is getting older and older, and she can't do energy work anymore, so Zhao Liumao went to see her with Ah Gou. It was raining heavily that day, Zhao Liumao went down to the tavern and went to see her again, and the Eight Immortal Gu said to him: "Liumao, I fell today, and suddenly remembered many things that I didn't remember before. I'm - the days are numbered, and the Bodhisattva is calling me! Your seal hall is a little black, I have given you a divination, and you will have a hard time in the second half of the year! If you can get through it, there will be no more serious problems in this life, and you won't be able to get through it—alas! I will give you a peace charm, you wear it, you must not leave your body, you must not stain it with filthy things, you must remember! ”

The Eight Immortal Gu wrapped it in red thread and handed it to Zhao Liumao, Zhao Liumao choked up and took it, and said sadly: "Immortal Gu, you are—"

"I have nothing to look up to, and I don't have to worry about it when I die. There is a big vat in the backyard, and when I die, you put me in the vat and bury me under the melon vine in the back. Take away everything you look useful in the house, I don't need it. ”

Ah Gou understood what the adults were saying, he rushed over and hugged the Eight Immortal Gu and cried: "Grandma Immortal, don't go!" Woo, don't go! Dog doesn't want you to go, woo woo woo-"

"Alas, you doll, you are a smart person, but you are also a little confused." The Eight Immortal Gu took out a smooth copper coin from under the pillow, tied it around Ah Gou's neck with a red rope, touched his head, and confessed: "Ah Dog, this copper coin is a living Bodhisattva to Grandma, and has been with Grandma for decades, Grandma gave him to you, you have to cherish it, you know?" ”

"A dog doesn't want money, a dog doesn't want a grandma to leave a dog-"

"You stupid boy, everyone dies, and no one can hide!" The Eight Immortal Gu also wiped her tears and said, "I have practiced all my life, and I have nothing to worry about, but who would have thought that I would be reluctant to leave when I left-"

The Eight Immortal Gu drove Zhao Liumao and his son out, but they didn't latch the door, and since then they haven't touched a drop of water, just sitting cross-legged and quietly on the bed. Zhao Liumao came to see the Eight Immortal Gu every day, and the Eight Immortal Gu became thinner and thinner day by day, and later they all became skinny and bone-ty, but there was still gas in their noses. In this way, after nearly a month, the Eight Immortal Gu sat down and looked peaceful. Zhao Liumao placed her in a jar according to the instructions of the Eight Immortal Gu and buried her under the melon vine behind the Guanyin Temple. He remembered the explanation of the Eight Immortal Gu, and knew that he had no one to rely on if he had three long and two short, so he was more cautious in dealing with others.

Winter fell in a blink of an eye, and Zhao Liumao was frightened for half a year, but he was safe. On this day, I returned to the house from the Fugui Tavern and found that there was a hole in the roof of the hall, and the snow had fallen in the house. The next day, Zhao Liumao got up from the bed, he didn't wake up Ah Gou, and climbed up to the roof by himself with a ladder.

The hole was in the middle of the hall, Zhao Liumao couldn't reach it with one hand, so he leaned forward, who expected that the ladder suddenly sliding, Zhao Liumao had nothing to grab with his hands, and immediately fell on the roof. On a snowy day, the thatch sucked the snow water and became soggy, and it was covered with a snow quilt four or five inches high.

"Bang!"

Ah Dog woke up from his dream, sat up from the bed with sleepy eyes, rubbed his eyes with both hands and looked into the room first, only to see that there was a hole in the roof of the hall that was bigger than yesterday, and there was a person lying on the ground.

"Daddy!" Ah Gou jumped out of bed and pounced on his father and cried, Zhao Liumao moved, stiffly stood up half of his body, and said softly: "Ah Gou, don't cry, help me - to - to - to - to - to - - ”

Ah Gou made Zhao Liumao to the bed with a confused face, half dragging and half dragging with difficulty, and cried: "Daddy, how are you?" Where are you hurt? ”

"Ahem, ahem!" Zhao Liumao opened his mouth but coughed violently, with blood in his mouth, so frightened that Ah Gou hugged him in a panic and cried: "Daddy, you don't want to be fine!" Daddy, Daddy—"

"Don't- don't cry! Ah, go and find Dr. Huang! Daddy will be fine! Don't cry, ah-"

"Uh-huh!" Ah Gou nodded desperately, even forgot to put on his shoes and ran out of the door, ran a few steps and found that something was wrong, and went back to the house to put on his shoes, only to see that Daddy had fallen asleep. Ah Gou was extremely anxious, running all the way, and he didn't care about bumping into other villagers who got up early, no one should call him, he fell and immediately got up and ran again, until he saw Dr. Huang's yard.

"Dr. Huang! Dr. Huang! Dr. Huang—"
