There was a little second standing at the door of the second floor of the Drunken Immortal Building, but with his back to the staircase, Wang Yihui went over and patted him on the shoulder: "Little Er, help us find an empty table." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

"How many of you...... Uh, Grandpa Xu, why are you here? ”

"It's a small pillar, when did you come to the Drunken Immortal Tower?" Xu Shaoguang actually knew this little er.

"I've been here for more than half a year. Grandpa Xu came here today, the original young master wants to have a treat, I'll find you a table by the window. With that, he led the two of them inside.

The seats on the second floor are all separate compartments, and the airtightness is quite good, Wang Yihui and the two can't see if there are people inside outside, but as the small pillar of Xiao Er, he knows which table has someone and which table has no one, so he took the two of them straight to the right.

Xu Shaoguang explained as he walked: "Hehe, I didn't expect to meet the original young master for a treat, today it was this little brother who wanted to invite me and your grandfather." Well, your grandfather is probably coming soon, so keep an eye on it and bring it when he arrives. ”

"I see, Grandpa Xu. Then sit at this table. He paused and opened a private room on his left.

The private room is enclosed by a screen, and there is only one table of eight immortals and four round stools, which is a little higher than the simple wooden table and long bench on the first floor, but it is not much better. On the opposite side is an open window, through which you can see the street outside, but because of the obstruction of the house opposite, you can't see the distant view, and this private room is on the east side, and you can't see the sunset.

At this time, Wang Yihui got the opportunity to ask Xu Shaoguang: "This little second brother is Uncle Zhang's grandson?" "This little second looks about the same age as Wang Yihui, but his appearance is not similar to Zhang Youqian, and he has a clever face, but it does not make people feel disgusted, but feels close at first sight.

Wang Yihui's words were a bit of a bargain, but Xiao Er didn't show any different colors when he heard it, and still smiled unchanged; Xu Shaoguang raised his hand and patted his head: "I'm really old, and I always forget things." His name is Zhang Xiaozhu, he is the third grandson of Lao Zhang, and he is very clever and capable; This is Wang Yihui, Young Master Wang, the friend I just met today, you are called ......" Xu Shaoguang said that he was stuck here, because Wang Yihui called him uncle, Zhang Xiaozhu called him grandfather, and the two were about the same size, so it was obviously inappropriate for Zhang Xiaozhu to call Uncle Wang Yihui.

"Call me brother, we'll go our separate ways." Wang Yihui hurriedly spoke.

Zhang Xiaozhu nodded, agreed-let him call Uncle Wang Yihui, he really couldn't call it-and then stretched out his hand to invite the two of them to sit down: "Grandpa Xu, Brother Yihui, please take a seat, I'll order food for you." ”

Wang Yihui nodded, and sat with Xu Shaoguang on the left and right: "Since someone has a treat today, let's order a first-class table." ”

"Okay, I also want to taste this one hundred taels of silver for a high-class table." Xu Shaoguang also showed a look of eagerness on his face.

Zhang Xiaozhu had a look of embarrassment on his face: "This ...... This is going to disappoint Grandpa Xu and Brother Yihui, the first-class table can't be ordered on time, and it has to be booked, because there are a few dishes that take a very long time to make, and it's too late to order them. ”

"Uh, even a reservation? Really? ”

"Of course it's true. How could I lie to you? ”

"Do you have any recommendations?"

"If Brother Yihui is too troublesome, you can ask for a medium table, which contains several signature dishes from our restaurant, and the portion is enough."

"Alright, let's have a medium table. Uncle Xu, is this okay? ”

Xu Shaoguang nodded: "It's totally okay, just wait for the table." ”

"Okay, one medium table, Grandpa Xu, Brother Yihui wait, I'll go to the kitchen to serve the food." Zhang Xiaozhu said and turned around and went downstairs.

Zhang Xiaozhu came back after a short time, bringing four cold dishes and a pot of wine. However, Wang Yihui and the two did not move their chopsticks, they were still chatting, and after a while, Zhang Youqian came, and as soon as they met, he first took out the sixteen taels of silver obtained from selling horses and handed them to Wang Yihui. Wang Yihui was going to give him some silver, but he refused to accept it; had to give the silver to Xu Shaoguang, and he refused to take more money, which made Wang Yihui very helpless, and when he was pushing, Zhang Xiaozhu brought hot dishes again: four meat and four vegetables, four steamed and four fried, plus the first four cold dishes are a total of twenty, and there is also a pot of wine, this is a medium table. Wang Yihui simply didn't give in, so he ate and drank with the two.

After eating this meal, it was already dark, Wang Yihui and Zhang Youqian first sent Xu Shaoguang back to his ready-to-wear shop, and then went to Zhang's house together, this is what the three of them agreed at the wine table, Wang Yihui will go to Zhang's house tonight to stay for a night, and then look for a house tomorrow - Wang Yihui is going to live in Zifeng Town for a while before making plans. As for Zhang Xiaozhu, he still has to continue to serve the guests, and he can't leave with him.

Zhang's house is not far from Xu Shaoguang's ready-to-wear shop, just across the street, and after sending Xu Shaoguang, Wang Yihui and Zhang Youqian soon arrived in front of Zhang's house. Zhang Youqian immediately shouted loudly: "Damn it, my friend is here, you all come out." ”

Wang Yihui had already learned some about the Zhang family in advance: Zhang Youqian's wife was still alive, and she gave birth to two sons and three daughters to Zhang Youqian, the daughters were all married and not in the Zhang family, and the two sons lived with them and did not separate. The eldest of these two sons is called Zhang Jinbao, nicknamed Goudan, and the younger is called Zhang Yinbao, nicknamed Gouzi - the one Zhang Youqian said he would send Xu Shaoguang to the end - they have already been married, Zhang Jinbao is powerful and powerful, and works as a guard in a shop, but in fact, he is doing the work of moving goods and delivering goods, and the guard just sounds good. He has three sons, two daughters, and two older sons ran away from home two years ago, saying that they were going to learn martial arts, but they have not been heard from since; Zhang Yinbao can drive, works as a coachman in a car and horse shop, and is not at home for most of the year, with only one son and one daughter, and the son is Zhang Xiaozhu, who is ranked third. The children below are younger and have not yet gone out to work.

"Where's the friend?" With the questioning, the old woman walked out of the main house, and she must be a rich wife when she looks old.

"Dad, which of your friends is here?" This time it was a voice from the east room, and then two middle-aged people, a man and a woman, came out, and there were three heads behind them poking their heads to look at the door.

At this time, as soon as the door of the West House opened, a middle-aged woman walked out, and a little girl was followed at her feet: "Ahem...... Dad, you're back. As soon as she opened her mouth, she coughed first, obviously sick. I think this is Zhang Yinbao's daughter-in-law and Zhang Xiaozhu's mother, because the Zhang family has her perennial illness, which is also one of the reasons why Zhang Youqian thinks that his second son has fewer children, but their husband and wife have a good relationship, and it is not easy to marry a daughter-in-law, and he has no way to let his son divorce his wife and remarry.

Zhang Youqian entered the courtyard and proudly pointed at Wang Yihui and said, "This is my new good friend Wang Yihui, who lives in our house tonight." Old family, you help the second family clean up Xiaozhu's house and let Yihui live - Xiaozhu stayed in Zuixianlou tonight and didn't come back. ”

"Okay, Dad." Zhang Jinbao's daughter-in-law readily agreed to walk to the opposite side.

Zhang Yinbao's daughter-in-law glanced at Wang Yihui lightly, didn't say anything, turned around and walked to the room next to her.

"I'm sorry for you." Wang Yihui said that he was going to go over to help clean up the house.

Zhang Youqian grabbed Wang Yihui: "Let's go to the hall to drink tea and rest for a while, they will be able to clean up soon, you don't have to go over." ”

"Uh, okay." Wang Yihui looked at the two people who went in to clean up the house, and followed Zhang Youqian into the main house.

At this time, it was already dark, and the light in the house was naturally darker, but in order to save lamp oil, all the rooms were not lit, until Wang Yihui and the two entered the main house, and Zhang Youqian's wife lit the lamp, but the light was very dim and could not reach far at all.

"I have food in the pot for you, I'll bring it over?" The old woman turned on the lamp and asked Zhang if he had money.

"No need!" Zhang Youqian waved his hand and said arrogantly, "I have already eaten in the Drunken Immortal Building, the medium table, it is Yihui who invited guests, I guess I don't need to eat tomorrow morning, you can pour us two bowls of tea." ”

"Today, I met the original young master for a treat, how can I be considered invited? Another day, I will invite you and Uncle Xu to go to the Drunken Immortal Tower for a meal. Tell me a little bit more about the town. ”

"Good. We ...... in town" The two chatted again, of course, Wang Yihui was not chatting, but understanding the situation of the world.

The two chatted for a while, and after a while, Zhang Jinbao's daughter-in-law came over and reported outside the house that the house had been cleaned up, and Wang Yihui immediately said that he was sleepy and wanted to go to sleep. Zhang Youqian didn't keep it anymore, so he sent Wang Yihui to the cleaned house.

This room is not very big, in addition to a bed and a table, there are some miscellaneous items piled up in it, Wang Yihui took a look and then blew the lamp to sleep: this is because he is tired and sleepy, and second, it is to save lamp oil - the Zhang family is obviously not rich.

The next day, Wang Yihui woke up after three o'clock in the morning, and when he went out, he saw Zhang Youqian squatting at the door of the main house smoking dry cigarettes. When he saw Wang Yihui coming out, he immediately stood up: "How did Yihui sleep last night?" ”

"It couldn't be better, I don't even want to wake up." Wang Yihui said and looked up at the sky, and then said to Zhang Youqian, "I have to trouble Uncle Zhang today, you can help me find a place to live." ”

"Looking for a place to live? Just stay at my house! ”

"That's not going to work. Your family is not wealthy, so you can't let Xiaozhu stay in the Drunken Immortal Building all the time, right? Besides, I still have to practice martial arts, and it's convenient to live alone......" Wang Yihui said that he suddenly remembered something here, and patted his head in annoyance, "I was in a hurry yesterday, and there were still things left in Uncle Xu's shop." ”

"It's okay, I can't lose it, I'll go get it with you."

"That couldn't be better. Let's go. Wang Yihui hurriedly walked out, because what fell on the ready-to-wear shop was the secret of the light tobacco palm and the jade plaque.

The two left Zhang's house and soon arrived at Xu Shaoguang's ready-to-wear shop. The ready-to-wear shop had already opened its door to do business, and Xu Shaoguang naturally greeted the two when he saw the two coming in: "Coming?" What are you looking for me? ”

Wang Yihui replied a little nervously: "I left something down yesterday, Uncle Xu didn't throw it away for me, right?" ”

"Drop something? Where did it fall? I did not see...... Oh, did it fall while taking a bath? I haven't been there since I came back, so I should still be in the same place, so I'll go with you to find it. ”

"No, no, I'll just go get it myself." Although he is very confident in Xu Shaoguang and Zhang Youqian's character, the secret tips and jade cards of the light tobacco palm are not ordinary things, and he is not sure whether the two will be tempted, and he doesn't want to test the character of the two, so it is better to get it himself.

"Okay, then you can go by yourself. I'll have a chat with Lao Zhang. Xu Shaoguang didn't insist.

"Hmm." Wang Yihui answered and immediately walked back.

Everything in the utility room is the same, it seems that Xu Shaoguang is telling the truth, Wang Yihui picked up his clothes and touched a book, took out the secret of a light cigarette palm, and then touched a little cold thing, and took it out to see that it was a jade card. He breathed a sigh of relief, put the two things away, and turned back to the front.

"Okay, the things have been found, I don't want the rest of the clothes, Uncle Xu, you can help me deal with it." Where do you sell breakfast? We went to buy breakfast to eat. ”

"No need, I've already eaten, and I still have to look at the shop, so I won't go out, you guys can go." Xu Shaoguang refused.

Wang Yihui looked at Zhang Youqian. The latter did not persuade Xu Shaoguang: "Then let's go." See you later. ”

Wang Yihui couldn't say anything more when he heard this, so he had to go out of the garment shop with Zhang Youqian and walk towards the center of the town. Naturally, some people in Zifeng Town rent houses outside, but Wang Yihui doesn't know whose house is rented, Zhang Youqian has not cared about this news before, and he has no clue, if he wants to rent a house, he must inquire in many ways, no one knows when he will be able to rent a house, and Wang Yihui can only go to Yaxing, which is close to the center of the town, if he wants to rent a house today.

The two walked through two alleys to a street, and there were many stalls selling food on the side of the road, so the two chose a wonton seller and asked for two bowls of wontons, and then went to Yahang after eating.

Yaxing was on a street behind the Drunken Immortal Building, and as soon as the two of them walked to the street where the Drunken Immortal Building was located, they saw a large group of people in front of them watching something, and the crowd erupted in laughter from time to time, as if there was something very interesting. Wang Yihui's heart moved, and an uncontrollable curiosity rose, so he pulled Zhang Youqian to watch.

Because there were too many onlookers, Wang Yihui took a lot of effort to squeeze in, but Zhang Youqian couldn't keep up with his old age and frailty, and was left on the periphery, and in the process of squeezing, he also knew what was going on through the conversations of others: it turned out that the onlookers were playing a monkey show, and it hadn't officially started today, and the three monkeys he raised refused to perform, no matter how he persuaded or scared, which attracted onlookers and laughter.

Wang Yihui squeezed inside and saw that it was indeed a slightly rich monkey trickster who was confronting the three monkeys, but the monkey trickster's face was sinking like water at this time, probably running out of patience, and suddenly gritted his teeth and turned around and took out a leather whip from the box next to him, and said viciously: "Since you are not obedient, it is useless to keep you, I will beat you to death today!" With that, he flicked a whip and walked towards the three monkeys.

When the three monkeys saw the monkey trickster take out the whip, they immediately showed a look of fear in their eyes, and they squeaked and wanted to escape, but they were all tied up in chains, where could they break free? This caused the monkey man to be ferocious, and with a wave of the whip, he whipped a monkey, leaving a bloody streak immediately; Then he beat the other two monkeys in turn, and in a short time they were covered in bruises, and the cries of the three monkeys became more and more miserable.

"Hey! Do you really want to kill them all? Wang Yihui couldn't stand it.

The monkey trickster glanced back at Wang Yihui, snorted coldly and turned around to continue beating the three monkeys.

"Hey! Didn't you hear me? Don't stop yet! ”

The monkey trickster stopped his whip, turned to Wang Yihui and said fiercely: "You don't meddle with things!" These three monkeys are mine, I can do whatever I want, no one else can care! ”

"They're yours, but wouldn't it be a shame that you just killed them? What can't you say? ”

As soon as Wang Yihui's voice fell, someone outside the crowd said: "That's right, Young Master Ben also wants to know what's going on." Let me get out of the way of Young Master Ben, and let Young Master me see what's going on. As soon as these words fell, the crowd immediately seemed to be startled, left and right, and made way of a passage, and then a person Shi Shiran walked in. This person is none other than Yuan Ping'an.

The monkey trickster obviously knew Yuan Ping'an as well, and when he saw him, he immediately showed a flattering smile: "Young Master Yuan, why are you here?" Do you want to watch the villain's monkey show? It's just that the villain's monkey has a problem and can't perform for the time being, so please understand the villain's difficulties. ”

Yuan Ping'an pouted: "Who wants to watch your monkey show?" Young Master Ben wants to know what is going on with you? Why don't you play a good monkey show and fight monkeys here? Could it be your new monkey show? ”

"Young Master Yuan laughed, the villain is a monkey play, the villain is also confused by these three animals, this is ......"

"Less nonsense! Say what I want to know, young master! ”

"Yes! Be! Here's the thing: the villain raised these three monkeys used to give three peaches every morning and evening, they don't know what disease they are doing today, they must let the villain add peaches to them, the villain will add one, that is, four in the morning and three in the evening, but I didn't expect them to be still dissatisfied, and let the villain increase, but how much money can the villain earn by playing monkey play? If you add more villains to them, you will be hungry, so the villains will not agree, so they will persuade them repeatedly, but they will not let go, and finally I will be really angry, and the villain will whip them. In fact, they are the source of food and clothing for the villain, and the villain usually treats them better than my own father. ”

"I see, it sounds like you're all right. This ......," Yuan Ping'an said, and there was some hesitation here.

Wang Yihui moved again: "It's better to give them three peaches every morning and four at night." ”

The monkey man grinned: "What's the ...... about this?"

Yuan Ping'an smiled and said, "Just do as he says." Just go! ”

"Hey." The monkey trickster didn't dare to disobey Yuan Ping'an's order, so he could only stubbornly go over and tell the three monkeys the plan Wang Yihui said. But then his eyes widened in astonishment, as the three monkeys nodded their heads in agreement.

The monkey trickster was stunned for a while before he came to his senses, and hurriedly reported the results to Yuan Ping'an, and finally shook his head and said in disbelief: "Isn't this the same?" Why did the monkey agree? ”

Yuan Ping'an didn't care about playing monkey man, he stretched out his hand and pointed at Wang Yihui: "You! Come with Master Ben! ”;
