Chapter 32: Uncle Cao Guo
Soon, the weather was suddenly cold, and winter had arrived.
The photovoltaic and solar household power generation equipment that Liu Jing purchased earlier has been installed in the Metropolitan Prison's Mansion, and several rooms have been connected to wires and lights, and a room in the middle yard has been specially found to put a TV and connect the host.
After Mrs. Cai heard about it, she took Xia Lian to visit the door every day, only looking for Han Ying Xiaoniang and Mr. Wang's wife, and several people occupied the room, drank tea, ate preserved fruits, watched costume dramas, and Lun was a senior housemaid.
Liu Jing went to the Thunder God Temple these days when he had nothing to do, and the donkey glue has been included in the Tai Hospital and has become a tribute, and now the value has risen sharply, and the asking price of each piece is consistent.
The backyard greenhouse is full of spring, the yellow-toothed cabbage has grown to the size of a fist, Liu Jing because he feels monotonous, ran back to modern times to buy a lot of greenhouse flowers and bonsai fruit trees, covered with a quilt and transported to the greenhouse, the host and let people carefully make a mahogany shelf, placed there, carefully taken care of every day, the whole greenhouse is full of flowers, fresh fruits are fragrant, really like a fairyland.
There is an open space where the bonsai is placed, there is a set of mahogany tables and chairs, and there is a small half bottle of red wine left on the table, Liu Jing and Qiao Daoqing and Li are sitting there chatting, Tang Xian Ling got up in front of a bonsai full of small apples, racking his brains to think of new words, Liu Jing felt that he actually wanted to take the opportunity to steal the fruit.
Sure enough, the county magistrate stroked the apple and suddenly exclaimed: "Oops, why did I drop one." "The apple has fallen in the palm of your hand.
I didn't want to say anything, and I nibbled back to my seat with an apple.
"After three or five years in the court, I should retreat bravely from the rapids, and I will also become a Taoist priest and live this fairy-like life." Old Tang threw away the apple core and sighed.
Liu Jing pouted: "After three or five years, you will be mixed up in the state capital, and you will not retreat when the time comes." ”
Old Tang said: "Don't say anything if you see through it, the virtuous brother will be punished for drinking." ”
said sadly: "When the time comes, Brother Xian will be Mr. Feng, I will go to another state, who will help me?" ”
Liu Jing could only comfort: "At that time, the eldest brother may also become a Beijing official, and it may not be necessary for us to meet in Bianjing." ”
Host Li also comforted on the side, and Tang County Ling was happy again and talked about the wine again.
At this moment, a Taoist priest walked in and said, "Yu Daozheng, there is a white-bearded old Taoist chief in the temple, wandering around there, we don't dare to pick up, how is this good?" ”
Everyone listened, walked out of the greenhouse together, didn't go far, and greeted them.
I saw that the old man was wearing a purple robe with a xia veil, and he was followed by two entourages, who were not ordinary people at first glance, and were looking around there.
Liu Jing was puzzled, and went over to make a junior salute, and asked, "I don't know what advice the seniors have?"
The old man said happily: "It seems that this is Liu Daozheng, the old man has traveled all over the world, smelled all kinds of extraordinary things about this Thunder Temple, and came to take a look, but I didn't see anything special." ”
Liu Jing smiled and said: "Wilderness Xiaoguan, there is nothing magical, but we are drinking, are the old-timers interested in drinking a few glasses together?" ”
The old man rejoiced, "I am thirsty, so very good." ”
Walking to the backyard together, the old man saw the glass greenhouse from a distance, and was dumbfounded: "What a wilderness view!" ”
When I entered the greenhouse, I was first attracted by the rows of yellow-toothed cabbage, squatted down, touched a cabbage, and sighed: "The creation of heaven and earth!" ”
Before the banquet, he didn't sit down, he went to see the flowers and potted fruits first, and he was virtuous with Old Tang, and he couldn't help but want to eat secretly, but he was embarrassed to start.
Only then did he come to the table, Liu Jing asked him to sit on the top and asked, "I don't know the name of the old-timer?" ”
The old man was attracted by the red wine on the table again, picked up the wine bottle and looked at it carefully, and said casually: "Old decay Cao Tong, one is just a person who walks the rivers and lakes." ”
"Uncle Cao Guo!" "King of Jiyang County!" Liu Jing and Old Tang exclaimed at the same time.
Liu Jing was very excited, this is Uncle Cao Guo, one of the Eight Immortals, he was actually seen alive by himself today, should he find his old man to sign his name?
Cao Tong was very realistic, first poured himself a glass of wine, drank it in one sip, shook his head intoxicatedly, and sandwiched a chopsticks of sesame sauce mixed with yellow-toothed cabbage before nodding with satisfaction.
"Senior Cao, you have traveled for so long, have you met a person named Tie Guan Li, Lan Caihe is okay." Liu Jing asked expectantly.
"I haven't met it, but one of my two elders is surnamed Tie."
Liu Jing was unwilling, and asked again: "Lu Dongbin should have met it." ”
Cao Tong laughed: "Don't be joking, that Lu Zu is a figure in the Tang Dynasty, where did I meet it." ”
"Alas, it seems that the legend is not true." Yanagi was disappointed.
Cao Tong opened his mouth and said: "It's not interesting to mention those sayings, the old man has traveled all over the world, just to find the blessed land that can be cultivated, and now that he has found it, he wants to partner here, I don't know if Lord Zheng can agree?" ”
Liu Jing hurriedly replied: "Senior Cao is partnering in my temple, and for the small temple, it is a flourishing color, please don't come, talk about what to promise or not." ”
"But there is one thing I want my seniors to understand." Liu Jing said shyly.
"What's so difficult about Daozheng?"
"That's right, the Five Elements Illusion Drama we put here, have you ever heard of it in your predecessors?"
"I've heard of it, and I'm going to take the time to watch it."
"That's the case, next spring, we will put on a serial film of fairy legends in this Five Elements Fantasy Drama, called Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea, and there will be your old man among the eight immortals, and the seniors won't mind." Liu Jing smiled evilly.
Cao Tong said reservedly: "This is not good. ”
He changed his style and said, "When the time comes, arrange a front seat for the old decay." ”
Liu Jing hurriedly said: "Senior, don't worry, when the time comes, I will customize a private room for your old man." ”
called Li to host: "Lao Li, today I will clean up a piece of the old fairy in the upper room, and in the future, those donkey glue or something, the old fairy can use it if he wants, and he doesn't have to tell him again." ”
The host hurriedly agreed, and someone went to clean up first.
Cao Shenxian was very happy, so he talked to everyone while eating and drinking, Liu Jing knew a fart, and hurriedly asked Qiao Daoqing to come up and help him, coming and going. The two had a very happy conversation.
After the banquet, Liu Jing accompanied Cao Tong to visit the pharmacy and Danfang, Cao Tong was not interested in making grenades, but talked to the pharmacy host, and asked Liu Jing about the medicines he brought back from modern times, nodding frequently.
I also understood the function of the donkey glue, the magic medicine of the temple in the town, and straightened his white beard with satisfaction, and suddenly saw the second pot head in a plastic barrel used for alcohol disinfection, opened the bottle cap, and suddenly the aroma of wine overflowed.
The old man didn't listen to persuasion, and insisted on tasting it, but Liu Jing couldn't persuade him, so he had to follow him.
Lao Cao poured a teacup, took a big sip, and immediately choked and vomited, coughing vigorously, the chief hurriedly came over and beat his back, this time he was honest, and never mentioned the wine again.
That Lao Cao has been partnering in the Thunder God Temple since then, and if he has nothing to do, he will go to the greenhouse to scourge the cabbage and fruits, and Liu Jing doesn't care.
