Chapter 50
50. Golden thrush
Qianqian saw that the little boat lady was being bullied, so she stood up, and before she could rush up, Miao Fan beside her had already strode over and grabbed the man's fallen palm.
Miao Fan threw him away and said lightly: "Enough, if you have something to say, it's not right to beat someone, not to mention that you still beat a little girl." โ
Halfway through the killing, the man was angry, and the fierce god roared viciously: "Where did the little rabbit cub dare to stand in the way of grandpa!" Look for death! โ
Don't look at this man dressed decently, but he looks five big and three thick, and his face is full of flesh like a bandit. He saw that Miao Fan was dressed as a scholar and looked handsome, so he naturally didn't pay attention to it, and punched people in the face with a fist.
The big fist of the casserole struck, and the passers-by were so frightened that they covered their eyes, and Qianqian also ran over in a panic, wanting to stop in front of Miao Fan. I saw Miao Fan wave his arm and easily pull away the man's arm, but pushed the guy out of the way a few steps.
The man's fierce face crossed in surprise, he didn't expect that his tall and large body was even inferior to a thin scholar, he felt embarrassed, as if the whispers of the people around him were laughing at him. Annoyed, he smashed the birdcage to the ground, rolled up his sleeves and pounced again: "Call you nosy! โ
Puff โ
After a few beatings, the man covered his cheeks and fell down, lying on the ground kicking his legs. Miao Fan put away his fist and walked over to look at him condescendingly: "You slapped her twice, and I slapped you twice, one for the other." I hope you will be reasonable in advance in the future, and don't act aggressively. โ
After speaking, he helped the boat lady pick up the vegetable basket, and the boat girl wiped her tears and thanked her, telling the reason. It turned out that the two of them were walking in a hurry just now, and accidentally bumped into the man, and the man accidentally dropped the birdcage, and then the thrush in the cage flew away. The boat lady apologized again and again, but the man demanded that she pay for it, and said that it was the only golden thrush, and if she didn't catch the bird, she would have to pay five hundred taels of silver.
The man was beaten and got up, covered his face and ran away. Qianqian went over to look at the boat lady, and saw that her cheeks were printed with five red finger prints, and she jumped to her feet in anger: "Dead bastard!" With such a heavy hand on a little girl, is it still a man?! Shameless! โ
She bent down to pick up the radish from the ground, threw it at the man's embarrassed back, and shouted, "Don't run!" Hurry up, let's catch him and beat him up! โ
Miao Fan guessed that she probably wanted to "bully others", and couldn't help laughing: "Qianqian, the poor don't chase after him, and besides, he has also been taught a lesson." โ
"Madame's kindness, our mother and sister appreciate it, forget it, let's go back to the boat quickly." The boat lady patted the ash on her knees, and said very nervously: "I know this person, his name is Zhao Hu, and he is the younger brother of Zhao Long, the leader of the Cao Gang." We offended him, I'm afraid that we will be sought revenge by the Cao Gang, two guest officers, let's go! โ
"Ohโthe serpent."
Qianqian suddenly realized, hooked the corners of her lips, and her beautiful eyes were tactful: "Boss of the Cao Gang, do you mean that you are very rich?" โ
As soon as Miao Fan saw her expression, he knew that she wanted to do something bad again, and called her with a calm face: "Lady." โ
He shook his head at her solemnly, meaning that she would not be allowed to do evil.
"It's not fair!" She pouted and said angrily: "You can all draw a knife to help you when you see injustice, but I can't do anything?" โ
He explained: "I am doing this to stop evil and do good, so that the person will change from evil to right, and you want to cheat people out of money, which is not right." โ
Oops, I've seen through it!
Qianqian refused to admit it: "What's wrong, he's as horizontal as a crab, but it's just that he has a few stinky money, I let him lose his capital, look at how he is!" Xianggong, you are doing the right thing for heaven, I am a chivalrous fighter, our husbands sing and follow the wives, what a match! โ
The crooked reason is said so eloquently, and she is the only one. Miao Fan couldn't cry or laugh, and pulled her back to the wonton stall: "Eat it first." โ
When the two of them had eaten, Qianqian seemed to have put the proposal just now, and pulled Miao Fandong to walk around, looking at everything he saw, and then he walked a small half street, and his hands were full of things.
"Look, there's a bird market there, let's go take a look. Do you like raising birds? If you like it, I'll buy you a talking parrot! โ
She was lively and fresh like a chirping bird, he smiled slightly, patiently accompanied her to see, and did not forget to say something joking: "I like it very much, but I already have one, she can also talk, and she talks a lot." โ
"Huh?" Qianqian looked at him suspiciously, thinking to herself, why didn't she know that he raised birds? After thinking for a moment, he met his teasing smile, and suddenly reacted, "You think I talk too much!" โ
She feigned anger and hit him, and he said seriously: "I don't dislike you, I said I like it very much." โ
His unconventional confession made her heart flutter again, and she stood on tiptoe and kissed him on the lips.
"Qianqian, there are so many people......" He was very worried about her sneak attack at some of the time and place, and leaned back to avoid it.
"Don't hide!" She hooked him around the neck and "pecked" a few more times, "That's how birds peck at food!" โ
He finally understood what it meant to lift a stone and shoot herself in the foot, and who told him that she was a bird?
โฆโฆ Wrong! Birds peck at food, she says she is a bird, so he is food?
Miao Fan remained silent, pulled her off her body, lowered her eyes and asked, "Are you sure you eat me, not me eating you?" He had a faint face and a desireless expression, but his eyebrows were raised at her, as if questioning.
Who is it that is eaten and wiped clean every night!
Qianqian covered her face and shyly, stomped her feet and shook her hands: "Colored monk!" โ
Tiger town here is complex, three religions and nine streams of things, in addition to the folk customs, the local people are also good to gamble, pai gow dice double land all come, and in the past two years and from time to time a new way to play - fighting birds.
Fighting birds are not all kinds of birds, generally choose fierce and aggressive birds, such as starlings, thrushes, wrens, quails, etc. There are people in Tiger Town who specialize in this business, do bookmakers to organize bird fighting, and then open bets. The bird fighter who raises the bird brings the bird to come, please make a judgment fairly, after the game begins, the two sides release the bird, and the trained war bird pounces on the opponent as soon as he sees it, you catch me and peck, and fight fiercely.
Qianqian walked around the bird market and inquired about the local atmosphere clearly, the owner of the bird seller was worn out, but she didn't buy the thrush that was blown to the sky, but pointed to the cage of the bird and asked, "How much is this?" โ
The bird boss was stunned and said, "If you buy a bird, you will send a cage, no money." โ
"I don't want birds, I want cages." Qianqian smiled, "Boss, you can make a price." โ
The boss frowned: "Where is there a bird cage that doesn't buy birds, little lady, you shouldn't be deliberately trying to make trouble and touch my moldy head!" โ
Qianqian said: "I just like this birdcage, do you sell it or not!" Give me a good word! โ
"Didn't the bird fly if I sold your cage? You either buy a bird and send a cage, or you don't want neither. This boss is also depressed, he has never met this kind of buyer after so many years of business.
At this time, Miao Fan said to Qianqian: "Buy them all." โ
She pouted and was unhappy: "I just want the cage ......"
"Qianqian, buy it." Miao Fan insisted again and again, and she bought the bird cage together, spending eight taels of silver.
Walking out of the bird market with a cage, Qianqian asked him in wonder: "Xianggong, do you really want to raise birds?" โ
Miao Fan shook his head: "I want to let it go." โ
It turned out that he insisted on buying the bird because he wanted to release it. Qianqian sighed and said, "Is it useful for you to do this?" You put this one, and there are thousands of them trapped in cages, can you buy them and put them all? Besides, if you let it go this time, what if it gets caught again? Little monk, these are all useless works. โ
"It's not useless." Miao Fan opened the birdcage, carefully held the thrush, took it out and spread his palm, "If I save one, there will be one less trapped bird in the world, if I release it once, it will have one more chance to be free." I know that this is insignificant, but the accumulation of sand into a tower is a lot, and no matter how small the water droplets, as long as they accumulate enough, they can also form a vast ocean. Thousands of thousands, this is what Buddhism calls goodness and merit, not in size, but in how much. โ
The thrush stood in the palm of his hand, flapped its wings twice, spread its wings and soared into the sky, and in a blink of an eye, it flew and disappeared. He tilted his head and followed the bird's trail with a pure smile.
She looked at him stupidly.
Actually, it wasn't him who took refuge in her, but she took refuge in the Buddha. He is the Buddha.
When the two of them had had enough fun, they returned to the dock, but they saw Master Lu and Ah Piao Xiaohe standing on the pier, and the boat on the shore seemed to have experienced a storm and was smashed to the ground. The big and small boatmen sat on the side and quietly wiped away their tears, and the boatman father and son were repairing the broken deck, and their faces were painted with wounds.
"What's going on?"
Qianqian approached and asked a few people, and Master Lu said: "When we came back from the town, we saw a group of people coming down from the boat, and I heard that the boatman had provoked someone, and the other party came to seek revenge." โ
Xiaohe patted his chest and palpitated: "What a fierce person! All of them are like bandits, the five big and three thick ones at the head, with a face full of meat! Not a good person at first glance! โ
With such a description, Qianqian guessed two or three points.
Who is the Cao Gang, is it called Zhao Hu? Wow, this bastard, she was ready to let him go, and he actually sent him to the door to find death!
Seeing the two of them coming back, the boat lady hurriedly stepped forward and persuaded: "Guest officer, you better leave quickly!" The people of the Cao Gang are not easy to mess with, it doesn't matter if we were smashed the boat, but we can't affect the two of you Good Samaritans who were killed by Zhao Hu. You rent another boat, and I'll tell the owner to carry your luggage for you immediately, and ......go quickly."
"I'm not busy, I'm not busy, I still have something to do." Qianqian shouted to the panicked boat lady, turned back to Miao Fan and said: "Xianggong, it's not that I don't listen to you this time, it's really that the other party is too deceitful, don't give him some color to see if I don't know how good I am!" โ
Miao Fan also hesitated when he saw this, but he still felt that he should not deceive people: "Qianqian, why don't we go to the official mansion ......"
"The talents of the government will not meddle in their affairs, they all rely on the filial piety money of the Cao Gang to eat and drink spicy!" Ah Piao was holding the grass in his mouth, and he looked like a child, it was rare for a gentleman to be a child, and he said proudly: "Count me in!" โ
Xiaohe and Master Lu also said that they couldn't let go of this kind of person.
Miao Fan finally compromised, sighed and said, "But Zhao Hu recognizes us, how do you lure him into the game?" โ
"It's good to have seen it." Qianqian lifted the birdcage and shook it, and said to Xiaohe, "I won't pick the big beam this time, how about leaving it to you?" Let's have a bitter love drama. โ
The author has something to say: this new scam is relatively short, and the next chapter should be completed, and then the little monk and the little liar continue to go to Jingshi to get tired of it! โญ(โฏ3โฐ)โฎ
