The man in front of the old man was a big man with a full beard, and he bargained with the old man, and the bearded man wanted the old man to sell the donkey to him at a price of eight taels of silver, and he must have seen the old man and was in a hurry to sell the donkey, so he kept the price so low. Yang Yun saw the old man who sold the donkey, his face covered with wind and frost, and his face was full of sorrow, he shook his head directly at the bargaining man, and there was only one sentence in his mouth, "The donkey sells for twelve taels of silver."
"I said what's the matter with you, old man, don't you want to sell the donkey, quickly sell the donkey to me for eight taels of silver, if you don't sell it to me, you won't be able to sell it for five taels of silver for a while." The bearded man who bargained for a lot of money was a little angry when he saw that the old man refused to sell the donkey to him at a low price, and roared loudly at the old man. Yang Yun's tone of voice as he listened contained a threatening component.
The old man who sold the donkey was frightened by the roar of the bearded man, and he immediately became frightened, and the words in his mouth, "The donkey sells for twelve taels of silver", have been said a little incoherently.
Yang Yun and the two brothers and sisters glanced at each other, if they want to buy this donkey today, it will not be too smooth, the bearded man is not a good person, his expression of imperative on the donkey, if the Yang Yun brothers and sisters buy this donkey at a high price, they will definitely get into trouble, the Yang family often comes and goes to the town, Yang Yun doesn't want to get into trouble.
Yang Yun thought for a while, and suddenly had an idea in her heart, she took Yang Yong's hand and pulled Yang Yong away from the stall selling donkeys.
"Brother, let's pretend to be the old man's family for a while, and then we will walk over, and you will pull the old man and say that the donkey has been bought by a good man, and the other party is willing to pay twelve taels of silver to buy the donkey, and then you stuff two silver pieces of five taels of silver into the old man's hands, and then we will pull the old man and the donkey away."
"Sister, is this okay, what if the old man takes it and our silver runs away? And what if that old man doesn't cooperate with us? What if he exposes us on the spot that we are not his family? It's too dangerous for us to do this, and it won't end well if we are exposed. Yang Yong was taken aback by Yang Yun's bold idea, losing money is a trivial matter, and it will be troublesome if someone exposes it on the spot. The bearded man looks like a bad character.
"Brother, don't worry, that old man is older than our grandfather, can he outrun you? Besides, we won't be exposed, the old man was scared by the bearded man, and he can't wait to get out of there now. If he doesn't run away for a while, the donkey will be forcibly bought by the bearded man at a low price. Let's go over and take the old man away, maybe he'll thank us. ā
Yang Yun saw the situation just now, but Yang Yun still prayed in her heart, hoping that the old man would not be hopelessly stupid, and it was risky to pretend to be a relative. The Yang Yun brothers and sisters were standing just now, behind the group of bargaining people, and the people in front didn't look back at Yang Yun and them at all, so even if they walked over and pulled the old man away now, they were not afraid of the people in front of them, and found that Yang Yun's brothers and sisters were also standing next to them just now.
Yang Yong took out two silver pieces of five taels from under the fishing net, and then followed Yang Yun to the stall selling donkeys quickly, Yang Yun's brothers and sisters squeezed away the people in front of them, and walked directly to the old man.
"Grandpa, grandpa, our donkey has been bought by a great good man, you see, the good man has already paid the deposit, and he asked us to quickly pull the donkey to his restaurant." Yang Yong pretended to be very happy according to Yang Yun's explanation just now, said to the old man, and then held up the two fixed silver in his hand to show the old man.
"It's... This ......" The old man who sold the donkey was stunned by Yang Yong's sudden recognition of his relatives, and he couldn't say a complete sentence in his mouth.
"Grandpa, don't be in a daze, hurry up and lead the donkey with us, that good man is still waiting for us to lead the donkey to his restaurant." After Yang Yong finished speaking, he stuffed the two silver stators in his hand into the old man's hands. And the old man was stuffed with ten taels of silver in Yang Yong's hand, and he was even more frightened and couldn't speak, maybe he had never seen so much silver in his life.
"Yes, grandpa, come with us, someone bought our donkey for twelve taels of silver, and I also put two taels of broken silver on me. The person who bought the donkey, I heard that he is a well-known good man in the town, and his family has opened a big restaurant on Third Street, so please hurry up and follow us. Yang Yun also interjected, the big restaurant on the third street was the Zhu family's restaurant, Yang Yun borrowed the name of the Zhu family, and wanted to shock the bearded man. Yang Yun believed that the bearded man didn't dare to run to the Zhu family restaurant and asked them if they had bought a donkey.
"You two little kids, where did you come from, what do you want to do?" The bearded man was also taken aback by the Yang brothers and sisters who suddenly rushed out just now, and he looked at the Yang brothers and sisters, and was about to pull away the old man and the donkey, before he came to his senses.
"This uncle, this donkey can't be sold to you, just now a great good man saw that my family was pitiful, so he paid twelve taels of silver to buy this donkey, you see the silver in my grandfather's hand, is the money that the great good man bought the donkey, we are now going to pull the donkey to his house to drink."
"What, this donkey is the first thing Lao Tzu fancied, you must sell it to me, you don't want to pull the donkey away." When the bearded man heard that the donkey had been bought, he immediately became angry.
"Uncle, people have already paid, there is really no way to sell it to you, if you really want to buy this donkey, why don't you go with us to the great good man and ask if they are willing to sell it to you."
"Damn, bah, this donkey is Lao Tzu's favorite, and you still want Lao Tzu to buy it from others." When the bearded man saw that Yang Yun was about to pull the donkey away, he immediately stared at Yang Yun with horizontal eyebrows, as if Yang Yun dared to pull the donkey away, he must have flattened Yang Yun on the spot.
"Little girl, where did you say that the good man who bought your donkey opened a big restaurant in town?" The onlookers next to him suddenly asked about Yang Yun, Yang Yun said earlier, that good man has a big sprinkling building on the third street.
"Yes, the great good man just said that let's take the donkey to the big restaurant on Third Street and hand it over to the big shopkeeper of the restaurant. If you don't believe me, you can ask my brother, my brother was with me at that time, and my brother had given my grandfather the money paid by the great good man just now. ā
"What my sister said is true." When Yang Yong heard Yang Yun's words, he immediately came out to support Yang Yun.
Yang Yong stuffed the silver into the hands of the old man, everyone could see it clearly, they now listened to Yang Yun's words, and they believed Yang Yun, the third street restaurant in the town was not opened by the Zhu family, and in August, the eldest son of the Zhu family married the little daughter of the chief of the pavilion in the town, and now the status of the Zhu family in the town has long surpassed the richest Li family, who dares to offend the Zhu family casually.
"Isn't the big restaurant on Third Street the Zhu family?"
"No, this Master Zhu is indeed a good man, his family and son got married in August, and all the residents in the town received a happy package from the Zhu family." The crowd of onlookers was quietly discussing the affairs of the Zhu family.
Yang Yun heard the words of the onlookers, and was amazed in her heart, this Zhu family is really generous, there are so many people in the town, even if a family sends 2 wedding bags, how much flour will be used, with the Zhu family's handwriting, a family may not only send 2 wedding bags.
"This stinky girl, what she said is true, it was really the Zhu family who bought this donkey." The bearded man naturally heard what the onlookers said, and he also knew that the big restaurant on Third Street was indeed the Zhu family.
"Uncle is real, if you don't believe it, you can go to the Zhu family's restaurant with us to see if they bought this donkey." Yang Yun looked serious and sincerely invited the bearded man to go to the Zhu family's restaurant with them.
Yang Yun is not worried about the big man, he will go to Zhujia Wine with them, even if he takes the big man to Zhujia Restaurant, when the time comes, he will give a code to the big shopkeeper, Yang Yun will not believe that the big shopkeeper will not help, and he will not have the courage to forgive that big man, and go to Zhujia Restaurant with Yang Yun and them.
"If it's really the Zhu family who bought it, I'm unlucky today, phew, Lao Tzu won't buy it." The bearded man, seeing that Yang Yun was very honest, wanted to ask him to go to the Zhu family's restaurant together, so he believed Yang Yun's words, and said that the clothes worn by Yang Yun's brothers and sisters were very ordinary, made of the cheapest cotton, and the bearded man couldn't imagine that Yang Yun's brothers and sisters could get these more than a dozen taels of silver.
"Bah, grandma's bear, it's really unlucky, look at it, get out of the way." The bearded man saw that he couldn't buy a donkey today, so he angrily pushed away the crowd of onlookers and left.
When the Yang Yun brothers and sisters saw that the bearded man was gone, they hurriedly pulled the old man, took the donkey and left, and the crowd of onlookers saw that there was no excitement to see, so they all dispersed. The Yang Yun brothers and sisters pulled the old man to a place where there were few people before stopping to rest. Although Yang Yun pretended to be very calm just now, she was actually very scared in her heart, and the old man would poke their brother and sister on the spot.
"Little girl, young man, thank you." Before the Yang Yun brothers and sisters spoke, the old man opened his mouth to thank Yang Yun and the brothers. Then the old man grasped it in his hand, and the silver stator that had been stained with sweat was handed back to Yang Yong.
The two fixed silver old men have been holding it tightly in their hands all the way, and they are afraid that the silver will be lost suddenly, this cold day, can hold the silver sweat stains, Yang Yun looked at the silver stator spread in front of him, and his heart was full of tastes. The sweat stains on the silver set represent the helplessness and sadness of countless poor people for life.
"Grandpa, the situation was more urgent just now, and our brothers and sisters pretended to be your family, and I hope you won't be surprised." Yang Yun can understand the old man's helplessness, and he is very grateful to the old man, just now the old man was not on the spot, and it was really fortunate to expose that their brother and sister were not his family.
"Little girl, it's too late for me to thank you, if it weren't for your brother and sister's help, my donkey would have been taken away by that man, even if the old man is stupid, he understands that your brother and sister are helping me." The old man was really grateful to the Yang Yun brothers and sisters for helping him. (To be continued.) )
