Volume 1 Bead Curtain Twilight Rolling West Mountain Rain Chapter 55 Waiting for the return of the son
The two teenagers looked at each other, and Li Diudiu noticed that the man had been looking at the clothes on his body, his eyes were very complicated, some were nostalgic, some were unwilling, and some were relieved.
Li Diudiu felt a little strange at that moment, why could he read such complex feelings in the other party's eyes?
And at that moment, Tang Pidi saw a trace of empathy in the eyes of the young man opposite, and he thought it was his own delusion, so he took a closer look.
The boy himself didn't know, why did it feel like dΓ©jΓ vu when they met for the first time? It's weird, it's very weird.
"The clothes are beautiful."
Don smiled, and after saying this, he turned to face the carriage from which he had come down, and helped his father down.
"Thank you......"
Li Di threw back a sentence, but found that the other party didn't look at him at all at all, and helped the old man who seemed to have difficulty moving to get out of the car, and a middle-aged man who looked to be thirty or forty years old followed and helped behind the old man.
Although the old man looked haggard and seemed to be disabled, when he got out of the car and glanced at Li Diudiu, Li Diudiu felt that this must be a great person.
Sometimes, it just feels so weird.
"Master."
Gu Weishan helped Tang Shen get out of the car, and said in a very soft voice: "This is the old shop that Master has been talking about for many years and only drinks alcohol, but today, forgive the disciple for being brave and not allow Master to drink." β
Tang Shen smiled: "You still have to drink wine, how about just one glass?" β
Tang Pi said: "Then it's just one cup, my father said himself, what if you drink more?" β
Tang Shen said: "I will dispose of one more cup at your disposal, from today until I return to Daizhou, I will listen to you, and your senior brother will be a witness." β
Gu Weishan said with a smile: "Okay, I will do this testimony today, Master is a gentleman, and if you can't speak, it won't count." β
Li Didiu looked at the three people and laughed and went into drinking, standing there in a daze, not knowing what was wrong with him.
Xiahou Zhuo looked at his expression, then looked at the young man who entered the restaurant, and couldn't help but sigh and said, "You are so good." β
Yan Qingzhi sighed: "Tang is the enemy." β
Xiahou Zhuo was stunned: "That Tang who was expelled from the academy?" β
Yan Qingzhi snorted: "Although he is not my disciple, I still recognize it, I haven't seen him for a while, he looks so tall that he is almost an adult, and his age is actually about the same as Li Qi." β
Xiahou Zhuo looked at Li Diudiu and said, "Look at the people and then look at you, eat more next time!" β
Yan Qingzhi: "......."
Li Diudian said in his heart that it was no wonder that he stared at the uniform on my body, it turned out that he was also a disciple of the Four Pages Academy, and he was also the first in the Jiazitang School.
"It turned out to be a senior brother, but wasn't he involved in some traitor case?"
Li Didiu muttered to himself.
Neither Xiahou Zhuo nor Yan Qingzhi thought of this, and the two of them looked at each other for a moment, and they both felt that this matter was extraordinary.
If it is a traitor, it is impossible for people to release it.
"It's none of our business."
Xiahou Zhuo shrugged his shoulders: "We're just here to drink." β
He looked at the inscription on the plaque and said, "Drink only." β
A pun intended.
The four of them also entered the restaurant, although Xiahou Zhuo was not very rich at all times, but he never took money seriously, and he came up to ask for the best private room, but the guy told them that the best private room had just been used.
"Then whatever."
Xiahou Zhuo asked, "Is your burning knife really that good?" β
The young man said proudly: "In the entire Tang County, no one is better than my family's burning knife, and in the entire Jizhou, no one is better than my family's burning knife." β
Xiahou Zhuo smiled: "But I haven't heard of anyone in Tang County who sells burnt knives, and I haven't heard of anyone in Jizhou who sells burnt knives." β
The young man said, "Yes, we are the only one to sell ...... So no one is better......"
Xiahou Zhuo: "Beautiful! β
He smiled and said, "Let's have two jars of wine first, and then introduce your special dishes here, and I'll see what is delicious." β
The young man said: "Listening to the son's accent, it should be from Jizhou, right?" It's not far away, so what are the special dishes in Tang County, Childe should have heard a little, Childe, you see, this is one of Tang County's specialties Thin sausage, have you ever eaten it? β
Xiahou Zhuo shook his head: "I haven't eaten it." β
The young man said, "Then you don't need to eat it, it's not delicious." β
Xiahou Zhuo: "......"
Yan Qingzhi asked curiously, "Then what do you introduce?" β
The young man said, "This gentleman, you see what you say, I earn this money......"
Xiahou Zhuo said: "I just don't lack people around me, if I lack people, I will summon you to help me do things, or even don't do things, I will listen to you and play." β
The young man said seriously: "Thank you for raising love, it's okay to talk, don't play......"
Xiahou Zhuo laughed: "What's your name?" β
The young man said: "Hui Gongzi, the little one's name is Yu Jiuling. β
Xiahou Zhuo smiled and lowered his voice and asked, "I'm curious, you can say it like this, is anyone looking at you and trying to beat you up?" β
Yu Jiuling said: "How is that possible...... No, I also know that I am poor, cheap-mouthed, and offending people, but I can't control it, I really can't control it, I tried not to talk for a day, which is more uncomfortable than not eating for three days. β
Xiahou Zhuo said: "Then it seems that you are so good, there should not be many people who beat you." β
"Many."
Yu Jiuling said: "I'm good because I resisted beating." β
Xiahou Zhuo looked at this thin and small person, sixteen or seventeen years old, not tall, just a little taller than Li Diudiu, almost to the position of Xiahou Zhuo's ears, and it was estimated that he didn't even weigh eighty catties.
"At your size, you still resist beating?"
"Don't believe you?"
Yu Jiuling said: "Son, you have to try, I promise not to lie to you." β
Xiahou Zhuo shook his head and said: "Forget it, I came here to eat and drink, and I didn't come to fight, besides, you are so interesting, what am I doing to beat you for no reason." β
Yu Jiuling sighed: "Why doesn't anyone believe it? β
He looked at Li Diudiu: "Little boy, why don't you try?" β
Li Diudiu said: "I won't try it either, if I try to get addicted and I don't have the money to hire you, I feel uncomfortable." β
After hearing this, Yu Jiuling immediately said: "That's okay, the son is from Jizhou, if you try to get addicted, I go to Jizhou twice a month, my legs and feet are good and I run fast, it's not me who brags, I can go to Jizhou to fight a round trip a day, and I'll come back after the beating, and I won't delay things." β
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the shopkeeper scolding behind him: "Poor again!" β
Yu Jiuling shrank his neck and smiled: "Let's order first." β
Xiahou Zhuo thought he was interesting, so he said: "We won't order, four people, you look at the arrangement, take us to a private room casually." β
Yu Jiuling asked: "Then I have to ask the four sons first, do you eat a lot?" β
Xiahou Zhuo said: "I have half a lost amount of food......
He pointed at Li Diudiu: "He has a lost amount of food, and the other two don't add up to half a lost amount of food." β
Yu Jiuling said: "That's not much. β
Xiahou said: "You don't understand...... Let's go by the measure of ten. β
Yu Jiuling was stunned, but still nodded: "Okay, leave it to me." β
He went up to clean up the private room first, and Xiahou asked the shopkeeper of the restaurant curiously: "This young man is so full of bragging, and he is a little helpless when you call him, why don't you care?" β
The shopkeeper said: "Childe, his mouth is owed, but he really didn't brag, the last time the two men beat him, the two men were tired and he was fine, he just didn't fight back, the two strong men didn't hit him with a punch, and he was tired and panting, and the other thing is...... His leg strength is also really good, and he said that he went back and forth to Jizhou for more than 200 miles a day, not bragging. β
Xiahou Zhuo was stunned, he looked at Yan Qingzhi, and Yan Qingzhi was also full of surprise.
He sighed, "This is a talent." β
The shopkeeper said: "What the son said, what kind of talent is he, I don't know where he came from with the adults in the family, he didn't say it himself, it was seven or eight years ago, when he came to our Tang County, his parents were sick and died, he was helpless, he lived by begging in Tang County, competing with wild dogs for food, and it is estimated that running fast was practiced at that time." β
"At that time, he had no silver on him, and I looked at him pitifully, so I paid some money to buy two thin coffins for his parents to bury, and he did not ask me to take him in, and begged on the street every day during the day."
"At night, he slept in front of my store, and one night a thief came to the store, and one of his children got into a fight with someone, and his face was full of blood, and from that day on, I took him in as a buddy in the store."
Xiahou asked, "That...... If I want to take him away and give him a future, would you? β
The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, and shook his head: "Childe said and laughed, he has no strengths except for his mouth to run, what does Childe want him to do, today I think he is interesting to take him away, and tomorrow I think he is boring, so he will lose people, since he is with you, he must not have the face to come back to see me, maybe it will be mixed up, although I can't give him a future here, just three meals a day......"
Xiahou Zhuo nodded and said: "I understand, I'm just saying, I can still say something in Jizhou, the shopkeeper can discuss it with him in a while, next year I will go to Northern Xinjiang to serve in the army, anyway, I have to recruit soldiers, I think he has some ability......
Xiahou Zhuo looked at Li Diudiu when he said this, and Li Diudiu said: "Don't look at me, you are already an adult, make your own decisions." β
Xiahou Zhuo: "Get out of ......"
He looked at the shopkeeper and said, "You just have to mention it to him, and you will discuss it whether you want to go or not." β
After finishing speaking, he went up to the second floor with Li Diudiu and them, and when he walked to the staircase, he saw Yu Jiuling standing there looking at them, and the expression on his face was a little complicated.
"Childe, you're not kidding, are you?"
Yu Jiuling asked.
It turned out that he had heard what Xiahou Zhuo and the shopkeeper had said just now.
Xiahou said: "How can a manly man break his word, since he says it, it must be counted." β
Yu Jiuling nodded vigorously and said, "I'm willing to go!" β
"Huh?"
Xiahou Zhuo was stunned: "You...... Don't think that if you go to the army in northern Xinjiang with me, you will have an easy bright future, and that place in northern Xinjiang will fight all day long......"
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Yu Jiuling, his eyes were slightly red, and he bit his lip and said: "My father used to be a captain in the border army, and later accumulated military merits and was awarded the title of Wupin General, and the son should also know that when the military rank reaches the Wupin, he can take his family to join the army, so my father took leave to go back to his hometown to pick me up and my mother and ......."
He let out a long breath, tried to squeeze out a smile, and continued: "It's not good, my father and mother came here and contracted the wind and cold, and if I didn't hold it, I was the only .....one left."
Yan Qingzhi said: "In a situation like yours, the court will have a saying, and the army will also have a saying, have you ever asked?" β
Yu Jiuling smiled bitterly: "Sir, don't say that I don't have a place to ask for an explanation, even if I have it, does Mr. think the money can reach me?" Let's ...... Dachu"
The shopkeeper shouted downstairs: "Jiuling! β
Yu Jiuling hurriedly shut up: "Yes, yes, I know the shopkeeper, don't talk nonsense if you can't say it......"
Xiahou Zhuo was silent for a moment and then said: "Let's go to eat and drink first, and then we will stay in the city for one night, and go to Yunluo Mountain early tomorrow morning, and then come back in about five or six days, I will look for you here again, if you have a decision, come with me." β
Yu Jiuling looked downstairs at the shopkeeper who looked at him with slightly red eyes, and nodded after a while: "Okay, I'll wait for the son's return." β
