Chapter 41: Amulet
The originally planned luxury luncheon at the Weizhou Hotel was canceled before I knew it.
Xiao Xiong felt that after seeing so many children without fathers and mothers, he immediately went to a feast and ate and drank nonsense, which was really wrong. He deliberately wanted to befriend Yan Feiyang and Li Wugui, not to block them.
Obviously, these two boys have a sense of justice, if they feel that they are too hard-hearted, they will inevitably be mistaken for unsympathetic people, once such a gap is formed, if they want to change, it will be difficult, and they will have to pay ten times and a hundred times the effort.
After listening to Yan Feiyang's words, Xiao Xiong immediately patted his chest, immediately donated another 100,000 yuan, and promised that the medical expenses of the little bell would be borne by him.
At the beginning of the century, in Wei Zhou, 100,000 yuan was a huge amount of money, considering that Xiao Xiong had just been taken away by the kidnappers with 1 million in cash, he was able to donate 100,000 yuan at one time, which shows his generosity.
Xiao Sanye has never been a stingy guy.
However, what made Xiao Xiong feel a little depressed was that his generosity did not seem to have the expected effect, at least he didn't see how excited Yan Feiyang's face was, and even the expression of Granny Gu, who was dressed in cloth, was only faint.
Xiao Xiong even immediately had the urge to donate another 100,000 yuan.
But after all, he was not in the prime of his youth, and he still suppressed this impulse very sensibly.
Of course, with a donation of 100,000 yuan, Yan Feiyang would never be unhappy, and at his suggestion, the luxurious luncheon at the Weizhou Hotel became a dinner party in the Fly House.
The location is in Lao Cai, a noodle restaurant not far from the crystal hermitage.
In fact, there are many fly restaurants in the old street that still maintain the oldest and purest Wei Zhou flavor, Yan Feiyang and Li Wugui every Saturday and Sunday, if they don't go back to Wushan, they come here to play with the children, and sometimes they will "very luxuriously" take them to these fly restaurants to fight tooth sacrifices.
At this time, the children are happiest and smile the brightest.
In addition to Granny Gu, Brother Feiyang and Brother Wugui are their most caring people.
Xiao Xiong happily accepted Yan Feiyang's proposal, and even showed excitement.
In fact, Xiao Xiong grew up in Lao Cai, and his family's old house is less than a kilometer away from the crystal hermitage. But in the past, this distance was not too short, one was on the street, the other was in the street, and there was not much contact in normal times.
When Xiao Xiong was a minor, he left the old street to live outside, and his reputation gradually rose, and he slowly didn't go back to the old house much, and there were no relatives anyway. After many years, tasting the authentic flavor of the old street again, Xiao Xiong will naturally not object.
Xiao's mother is also as good as a stream.
Only when Xiao Xiao walked into the old street noodle restaurant, she frowned secretly.
Dirty!
That's the only reason she's frowning.
It is also a fly restaurant, and "no drunk and no home" is much cleaner than here, and the shop they ate at on Hongqi Road is also cleaner than this.
Xiao Xiao can not care about the taste of the food, but the poor sanitary conditions make it difficult for the little girl to tolerate.
Yan Feiyang lowered his voice and said, "Don't be nervous, their noodles are delicious and clean." You can watch the whole process. If it's not clean, you won't eat well. ”
"Hmmm......"
Xiao Xiao raised her little nose and bowed her head slightly.
Since he likes it, no matter how dirty it is, you have to be here with him.
Besides, this noodle shop is only a little dirty, depending on who it compares to. It's a little worse than not getting drunk and not returning, but compared to most other fly restaurants, the sanitary conditions are good.
The store was not big, and suddenly one or twenty people poured in, and it was really a bit of a posture that could not be opened, and the proprietress was immediately in a hurry, and it was a lot of noise for a while before she sat down at the two tables.
Fortunately, they came early, there were few diners in the store, and some people who wanted to come in to eat noodles were also "frightened" when they saw this scene, and they probed their brains outside, and finally decided not to go in to join in the fun.
The others are just okay, Xiao Xiong is not an ordinary person at first glance, the dress, the sitting posture, and the bearing all reveal a domineering spirit. People who have not held power for a long time will not have such momentum.
Since there are big names here for "micro-service private interviews", it's better not to go forward.
Let a sleeping dog lie.
Rice is noodles and wontons. In the eyes of the Xiao family, it is naturally extremely simple, even if it is an ordinary city person, noodles and wontons can only be used for breakfast, and if you make Chinese food, it is simpler. But the children cheered.
"Do they usually eat poorly?"
Xiao Xiao asked in a low voice, her tone quite puzzled.
"What do you think? My mother-in-law doesn't have a job, and the crystal nunnery doesn't have incense, so her usual expenses are mainly funded by some kind people. Li Wugui and I sometimes get them some Chinese medicine and bring some mountain goods. ”
Yan Feiyang explained a few words briefly.
Li Wugui said a little depressedly: "This is because I haven't graduated yet......"
It seems that as long as he is out of school, this problem is not a problem.
"What kind of teacher?"
Xiao Xiao is a little inexplicable.
Li Wugui seemed to realize that he had missed his mouth, so he smiled and diverted the topic.
Fortunately, Xiao Xiao was arrogant and didn't ask.
Granny Gu is a vegetarian, the boss made her a bowl of vegetable noodles, and most of the children eat wontons, but they all eat very quietly, and there is no imaginary quarrel and frolic, "sizzling".
Eat Mo Yan Mo Sleep Mo Language.
This is all the work of Granny Gu's daily teaching.
But the happy and satisfied smile immediately infected everyone.
Xiao Xiao even brought the little bell over and fed her wontons herself. is a bit of a good wife and mother. I only ate a few bites of my bowl of noodles.
After eating lunch, Xiao Xiao was still unsatisfied, so he proposed to Xiao Xiong to simply take the children to their house and make a barbecue dinner in the backyard of the villa in the evening. It's been a long time since I've had a barbecue, and Xiao Xiao really misses the taste.
The main thing is that the atmosphere of the barbecue party is heartwarming.
Villa 3 occupies a vast area, the backyard is very large, and there is a barbecue stove specially built, relatives and friends gather, sometimes barbecue in the yard, and of course add some other dishes.
Xiao Xiong smiled and nodded: "Okay." ”
Others, naturally, are not against it.
Only Granny Gu didn't go.
After all, the old man is old, and it is impossible to join in this kind of fun with the young people.
Before leaving, Granny Gu suddenly stopped Yan Feiyang, looked at him carefully for a while, lowered her head slightly, pulled out an ebony carved amulet from her neck, and said to Yan Feiyang: "Feiyang, this is the talisman I asked for you in front of the Bodhisattva, you can take it with you, ward off evil spirits!" ”
This amulet, the carving is quite exquisite, carved with a fierce beast, which is said to be one of the twenty-six variants of Pixiu. It is very soft and smooth to the touch, and there is a faint touch of flesh and blood, which shows that Granny Gu has been wearing it for a long time, and it is by no means a talisman that she asked for in front of the Bodhisattva temporarily.
Yan Feiyang hurriedly said, "Mother-in-law, this is too precious. ”
Buddhist or Taoist practitioners, the amulets worn for many years often have incredible effects.
It can even avoid the catastrophe for the owner.
It is said that in some large cities in the south, if this kind of amulet has been opened by a master, it can be sold for hundreds of thousands or even millions of sky-high prices.
Granny Gu smiled and said, "Mother-in-law is in front of the Bodhisattva every day, and the Bodhisattva will bless me." You young people, spread your wings and fly high, and wear this talisman for good. ”
Granny Gu has a quiet bearing, and she is very particular about her choice of words and sentences, which shows that she has a profound heritage, and she is by no means comparable to an ordinary old woman.
Yan Feiyang nodded and bent down.
Granny Gu put the amulet on his neck and gently touched his head, full of love.
In the early spring, the grass grows and the warbler flies, the backyard of Villa 3 is sunny, there are a lot of exercise equipment, and there is even a swing, which is a very suitable entertainment place for children to play. As soon as the children came back to such a luxurious villa for the first time, they were naturally amazed one by one. At first, he was a little restrained, but under the leadership of Xiao Xiao and Wei Wushuang, he quickly let go, and played crazy in the backyard, and in an instant, laughter and laughter filled the sun, spreading far away.
Xiao Xiong, Gu Bailian, Yan Feiyang and Li Wugui sat on the balcony of the study on the second floor, with a cup of tea and a few plates of melon and fruit snacks in front of them, looking condescendingly at the children running around the courtyard.
Xiao's mother was busy with the nanny driver, preparing the ingredients for the barbecue in the evening.
"Feiyang, you seem to be a little upset."
Xiao Xiong said with a smile.
He thought about it for a long time, but decided to get straight to the point.
This kid is not an ordinary young man, and talking to him around the corner will only backfire. Generally speaking, young people prefer to go straight.
Sure enough, Yan Feiyang didn't deny it, nodded, and said, "Uncle Xiao, I know that you don't believe in numerology and physiognomy Feng Shui, which can be regarded as ......."
Xiao Xiong smiled: "I believe it, but I don't believe it so deeply......"
That's a very tactful way to say.
Yan Feiyang smiled, his eyes quickly swept across Gu Bailian's face, and said, "I believe, Uncle Xiao has also heard of the sorcerer Jianghu, right?" ”
Xiao Xiong was stunned for a moment, the smile on his face gradually retracted, and became serious, and he also glanced at Gu Bailian beside him, and said in a deep voice: "I have heard ...... a little."
I really only heard about it slightly, that night, Gu Bailian talked to him about a "river and lake" that he didn't understand at all before, but he only described it slightly, like a dragonfly dotting water, but he had already heard Xiao Xiong stunned. Although he firmly believed in what came out of Gu Bailian's mouth, he always felt that the "rivers and lakes" were a little far away from him.
As long as he doesn't provoke the powerful people in the sorcerer's rivers and lakes, presumably people won't come to embarrass him for no reason.
And now, Yan Feiyang mentioned the Warlock Jianghu again, and suddenly made Xiao Xiong realize that in fact, this mysterious Warlock Jianghu was not as far away from him as he imagined.
Let's just say that at the moment, the three people around him are likely to come out of that river and lake.
