007: Storm
"But I haven't really been there, I used to be young, and my brother-in-law used me as a cover. Anyway, every time my brother-in-law would give me a penny. And those flower girls in there are ...... than you" Meng Youcai glanced at Hu Die, paused, and then continued: "It's much gentler than you here, and they will bring me a lot of snacks to eat." I'm at home, but I've never eaten those dim sums, and my eldest sister and my mother don't know how to make them. ”
Hu Die glanced at Meng Youcai and pointed to the dim sum on the table: "It's as if you haven't eaten dim sum when you came to me." ”
"Isn't this the first time I've eaten it? Aren't these still the snacks at the second sister's marriage table yesterday? Meng Youcai was unwilling to clarify for himself.
Hu Die rolled his eyes and pushed Meng Youcai: "You can make it clear, how could the three dogs follow you to Yecheng?" ”
"......" Meng Youcai glanced at Hu Die cautiously, and then looked around.
Hu Die sneered: "No matter how you look at it, it's useless, at most, it's just the flowers coming back." But do you think the flowers will be more gentle than I ask? ”
Meng Youcai bowed his head: "It's all the eldest sister who has no ability." ”
"Huh?" Hu Die frowned, "Why did you get involved with Meng Chuntao again?" ”
Meng Youcai sighed, sat aside again, touched a piece of dim sum and ate it, and then began to say, "Didn't you say it last time when my eldest sister and I came to Yecheng?" My eldest sister is here to make money, and my brother-in-law is a good gambler, and I know that you all look down on my brother-in-law, but my brother-in-law is really powerful in Xiahe Village. But sometimes it's easy to lose when you play big, and half of the losses are the eldest sister who makes a bunch or embroiders a handkerchief to sell in the town, or washes clothes for others. But Yecheng is different, there are many ways to make money in Yecheng. The eldest sister really wants to make money, but the second sister just doesn't believe it, and the result is ...... When my brother-in-law saw me go back, he thought that I must have made a lot of money. But Sister Hu Die, you also know that at the beginning, the second sister paid me to study, but then I have been helping out in Jiuxiang. Whether it was when I was studying or when I was helping out with Jiuxiang, the second sister never gave me a penny. ”
Hu Die sneered: "It seems to be owed to you, why don't you say that the two hundred taels of silver that Mr. Gu paid back to you are something that you can't earn back after ten years of work?" ”
"How can there be so many! That's basically the people of Sifangzhai bullying people, and the capital I owe is actually ...... Sister Hu Die, this time my brother-in-law came to win back those money. Meng Youcai said, and his face was about to shine.
Hu Die covered Meng Youcai's mouth and frowned: "Do you know that Sifangzhai is a place of gods, why are you so presumptuous?" If someone is in charge and doesn't do anything to you, it's your creation! Listen to Sister Hu Die. Go home, you can't do well in Yecheng! ”
Meng Youcai shook his teeth and looked up at Hu Die: "Actually, Sister Hu Die, like the second sister, wants to drive me back, because she is afraid that we will tell Sister Hu Die, right?" ”
Hu Die was stunned for a moment, let go of Meng Youcai, and coldly hooked the corners of his mouth to look Meng Youcai up and down: "What you say, I sound, why do you look so much like a threat to me?" Oh, Meng Youcai. My mother is dead, driven to death by such a cold and heartless village, do you think I still care what the people there think of me? ”
"......" Meng Youcai shut up and didn't speak.
Hu Die looked at Meng Youcai again for a while. He waved his hand in some dejection: "Come down with me." ”
"Don't you have to clean it up here?" Meng Youcai looked up at Hu Die.
"You don't need to clean it up." Hu Die glanced at Meng Youcai, with undisguised disgust in his eyes.
Meng Youcai lowered his head, reached out and clenched his fist, and silently followed Hu Die downstairs.
The three dogs seemed to have negotiated with Gu Huacheng and them. Sitting on a stool at the door with his head down, he looked up and saw Meng Youcai, but he didn't say anything. stepped forward and pulled Meng Youcai and walked out.
Meng Youcai was surprised: "Brother-in-law, what are you doing here?" ”
"Go back to Xiahe Village." The three dogs didn't look back, but just dragged Meng Youcai forward.
Meng Youcai's eyes widened in surprise, and he pulled the door of Fenghualou with one hand, and looked back at Jiuniang: "Second sister, I don't want to go back, second sister, I won't be naughty in the future, second sister ......"
The three dogs had red eyes, and turned around with a slap.
Meng Youcai was in pain, and looked at Jiu Niang aggrievedly without saying a word.
Jiuniang frowned, took two steps forward, and sighed: "Sangouzi, you are also his brother-in-law, how can you ......?"
"I taught my brother that you want an outsider to take care of it?" The three dogs glared at Jiu Niang.
Jiuniang was stunned, shook her hands and left, without saying a word.
Gu Huacheng shook his head, caught up with Jiu Niang, and the two returned to the aroma of wine together.
At the door of Fenghualou, Hu Die looked at Sangouzi and Meng Youcai lazily, and sneered: "Sangouzi, you did it on purpose, right?" Just want to provoke Hua'er and let Hua'er leave Meng Youcai, so you can take advantage of the situation and not leave, right? ”
A trace of panic flashed on Sangouzi's face, and he pointed at Hu Die in disbelief: "Don't talk nonsense!" ”
Hu Die smiled and shouted to Qing'er to close the door of Fenghualou.
Meng Youcai tugged at the sleeve of Sangouzi's shirt, and asked with red eyes: "Is what Hu Die said true?" ”
"What's really fake?" The three dogs sneered.
"You slapped me just to make the second sister soft-hearted? Scold. Meng Youcai sneered, "Didn't you just know my second sister, is the second sister such a soft-hearted person?" If it weren't for the people from Sifangzhai who beat me like that, do you think the second sister would give me two hundred taels of silver? It's also a loss to be in charge of things, not really only recognize money, otherwise ......"
When Sangouzi heard this, he slammed Meng Youcai: "Yes, didn't you say that you are quite familiar with that steward?" Why don't we go to the steward? ”
"Didn't you come here yesterday by Hu Die?" Meng Youcai sighed, "Brother-in-law, when I left Yecheng, I agreed with Steward Cheng that the two hundred taels given by Mr. Gu would be fifty-five cents, but the silver could not be redeemed, so we could only go in and gamble." ”
"Your brother-in-law and my ability, a hundred taels of silver will become a thousand taels for you!" The three dogs patted their chests.
Meng Youcai pouted: "Brother-in-law, do you know how much a hundred taels are?" ”
"You kid dare to look down on your brother-in-law after coming to Yecheng?" The three dogs reached out and twisted Meng Youcai's ears again.
Meng Youcai screamed and begged for mercy, and the three dogs could be regarded as letting go.
There are many scenes staged at the gate of the Qinglou every day, and the dialogue between Sangouzi and Meng Youcai did not let any passers-by take it to heart.
Hu Die behind the door of Fenghualou turned white.
It turned out that Gu Huacheng and Jiuniang were both put together by Meng Youcai.
Thinking of this, Hu Die didn't care about changing his clothes, so he hurried to the back door, but he didn't expect the grandmother of Fenghualou to be guarding the back door, and when she saw Hu Die coming, she smiled softly: "Hu Die, you know what you want to do, but Hu Die, over the years, you will never forget the rules of our various lines, right?" ”
Hu Die was silent.
"People's casinos are also open for business, you can't let people drink the northwest wind for the sake of your little sisterhood, right?" Mama looked at Hu Die coldly, "Besides, if you really want to be a little sister, you won't be angry with you, right?" ”
Hu Die glanced at Mama and smiled: "Mama taught me a lesson, but did Mama forget the fragrant wine?" ”
"Those wines are not taken back by your face and your body, our Fenghualou was bought back with real money, Hu Die, I know you think about Jiuniang, but now Jiuniang is also flying on the branches, what about you? Aren't you still in our Fenghua Building? Even if Lord Chen is kind to you? Jiu Niang is really blue-eyed. ”
"Mama." Hu Die opened his mouth and interrupted Mama's words, "Mama doesn't need to say it, Hu Die understands." ”
Hu Die turned around and walked back, regardless of Mama's bitter chatter behind her.
Back in the house, Qing'er was laboriously cleaning up for Hu Die. Hu Die stepped forward and pressed Qing'er's hand: "Don't be busy, for a while, if you can go out, go and tell Jiuniang, if Meng Youcai owes money, they just don't care." ”
"Sister Butterfly?" Qing'er frowned and looked at Hu Die in some surprise.
Hu Die sighed: "Don't ask, I'm being watched closely by my grandmother now, I'm afraid that you won't be able to go out too, and everything will have to be left to fate." ”
Hu Die couldn't get out, and Qing'er was naturally implicated.
When Qing'er finally passed on Hu Die's message, it was too late.
Sifangzhai never makes a loss-making business, even if the three dogs are really a gambler, but they only win three handfuls, and they start to lose, and there is almost no room to turn over. The stakes are getting bigger and bigger, and the three dogs are also red-eyed, and they don't allow Meng Youcai to go.
One hundred taels of silver, only three or five rounds, and you will lose cleanly.
"Brother-in-law, you let me go to the second sister." Meng Youcai was a little scared, he discussed the good thing of dividing the money with the steward of Sifangzhai at the beginning, but when the steward beat himself, he didn't show mercy to his subordinates, and now he really owes money...... Meng Youcai only felt that he felt chills all over his body when he thought about it.
The three dogs held Meng Youcai's hand and refused to let go.
Steward Cheng was already standing in front of them with someone sneering, and Meng Youcai couldn't help but drag the three dogs again: "Brother-in-law!" ”
The three dogs turned their heads to look at Meng Youcai with red eyes, and their voices were a little hoarse: "Youcai!" Brother's good brother! You are such a sister as Meng Chuntao! ”
"But the second sister, she ......" Meng Youcai opened his mouth, and was glared at viciously by the three dogs.
The third dog tugged on Meng Youcai's collar, put his head next to Meng Youcai's ear, and said in a very low voice: "If you can't get a bargain from Meng Xiahua, you go back to Xiahe Village, don't be caught by these people." ”
"Brother-in-law!" Meng Youcai was a little surprised.
Steward Cheng sneered: "Is Little Brother Meng planning to go to Mr. Gu to ask for silver?" Didn't Brother Meng know that Jiuxiang and we had already spoken first, and in the future, we and Jiuxiang would have a cooperative relationship, and they would send us wine, but we would not go to them to ask for money again.
