Storyteller

As she spoke, the woman who was returning the book also came forward, only to see that she was wearing a blue shirt today, with a small sachet hanging from her waist, holding a scroll in her hand, and holding a new umbrella, so she came up slowly.

Walking to the river, I couldn't help but glance at it, it turned out that the two sons fell into the water, fluttering in the river, shouting, one shouted "Mr. help...... and the other was very helpless, and did not shout, only grabbed the protruding stones on the river bank with both hands to prevent being washed away by the river.

"Oh, by the way, which two books are you borrowing?" Mr. Su saw the woman coming over, and asked for a while.

""Ghost Fox Romance" and a book of poems by Bai Lotian! I finished reading the novel yesterday, and Bai Letian's poetry collection has been read in the early years, so I came to return the book early this morning!" Zhang Xiaoshan held a new umbrella, stood closer to the old man, and saw that the big man and the young man of the family did not hold an umbrella, so he handed his umbrella to Li Congjia, and said, "I hold an umbrella with the old gentleman, you can use my umbrella first!" ”

"Thank you!" Li Congjia expressed his gratitude, did not shirk, took the umbrella, and asked Xiong Er to hold it.

"Humph! You old man, don't have a girl to get along with? Take my young master's umbrella and let my young master get drenched in the rain in vain!" Although Xiong Er is stupid, he is very good to Li Congjia, the old gentleman took the young master's umbrella before, and there will be a girl to send the umbrella, Xiong Er will compare, who is better to get along with, and get along better.

Mr. Su held the umbrella, smiled and didn't speak, after all, he took Li Congjia's umbrella first, and he was at a loss.

Not long after the umbrella was put up, Zhou Zong and the others who had been in the courtyard to check it before walked out with knives, and Zhou Zong bowed his hand, "Is the old gentleman also involved?" ”

Zhou Zong naturally knew the old gentleman, after all, Wutong Street was within the scope of his duty, and he probably recognized every household.

"No, no, just to see the fun!" Mr. Su waved his hand again and again, but pushed himself clean.

"I said it all, it was the two people in the river who hired thugs to break into my house, and my house is just legitimate defense!" Li Shuangshuang and Xiong Da were not at home, and it was Li Congjia who came out to speak.

Zhou Zong didn't pay attention to it, but stood by the river and asked the two, "What do you want to do when you hire thugs?"

"Naturally, it's a lesson to teach them! You county officials don't care, don't we are allowed to figure out our own way!" The second prince of the Min Kingdom in the river shouted, he was an extremely proud person, and he was an emperor, so he naturally disdained to tell lies.

"You are the second prince of the Min Kingdom! The one who came to the county government to mess around a few days ago and was kicked out?" Zhou Zong naturally remembered the two princes, saying that it was Jin Qiming's current master, and he came to the county government a few days ago to ask for an explanation, but the county lord seemed to dislike it and drove them out.

"Do you still recognize this prince? Why don't you get me up quickly?" The second prince is not like Jin Qiming, he has fallen into the water many times, and with some experience, he knows which posture is the most labor-saving and the least easy to choke on water, and now he has only soaked in the water for a short while, and he choked several mouthfuls of water.

"This is a private house, it's a big crime for you to hire thugs to break into a private house, I don't care if you are a second prince or not?"

"What? Do you still want to cure my sins?"

"It's okay, after all, you are not from my Southern Tang Dynasty, and you are not the sons and young masters of my dynasty? The physical witnesses are all there, and it is not a problem to be locked up in prison for a month or two!" Zhou Zong simply squatted down and said.

"You dare? I'm the second prince of Fujian?"

"It's just a proton!"

With just one sentence, the second prince wilted in an instant, yes! It's just a proton, and his life is in the hands of the Southern Tang Dynasty.

"A few of you, salvage them and send them to the county office!" Zhou Zong commanded his brothers.

…………

Before he arrived, the rain stopped, and Zhou Zong waited alone at the gate of Lane 17, and after sending the two people in the river to the county office, he ordered to pull a few carts to pull back the thugs who could not move in the yard.

"We don't have to pay for this thug's soup and medicine, right?" Li Congjia asked.

"Naturally not, it's just that the door of your house was destroyed, and it stands to reason that they should pay for it, but I see, there is really no need for that, you can replace this door again!"

"Okay, my family is still not short of this money!" Li Congjia pursed his lips, a little helpless.

While Li Congjia and Zhou Zong were talking, Xin Ji, the secretary of Honglu Temple who Su Kan had invited, also rushed over in a sedan chair, and Mr. Su didn't join in the excitement, leaving a few people back to his yard, and Xin Ji didn't know what to talk about.

Speaking quickly, after the old gentleman went home, less than a cup of tea, the official of the county government pulled a few carts, and pulled the thugs lying on the ground in the yard back to the county office, Zhou Zong ordered a few words, and asked Li Congjia's family to come to the county government early to report, so as not to make any mistakes in the future.

After Zhou Zong left, the matter seemed to be over, the sky had cleared after the rain, and the sky in Jinling began to shine again, and even the air was much fresher.

It's okay, Zhang Xiaoshan is leaving, and today he just came to return the book, and he stayed for a long time with curiosity, and he had to go to Qingping Fang to take a look, and she couldn't be the shopkeeper either!

"Then I will take my leave!" Zhang Xiaoshan bowed slightly, holding the old scroll in his hand, and walked lightly by the Qinhuai River, like a child who had just been released from the house and came out for a ride, his eyes were full of light.

There is a colorful and large aura on the horizon, which runs across the entire sky, extending from the north to the south of the city, Zhang Xiaoshan is wearing a cyan shirt, which is particularly compatible with the blue sky.

"Girl, wait a minute!"

"Huh? Anything else? Zhang Xiaoshan turned his head, his brows furrowed slightly.

"Your umbrella, return you!" Li Congjia re-closed the umbrella handed over by Zhang Xiaoshan and handed it over.

"Oh, I almost forgot!" Zhang Xiaoshan snorted and patted his head gently, but after thinking about it again, it was really not cost-effective, so he stopped and responded, "Later, I'll pick it up again!"

"That'...... All right! Li Congjia always didn't like to ask why, and he didn't ask Zhang Xiaoshan why he didn't take it now, but later.

Hearing the answer, Zhang Xiaoshan was a little brisker, and he actually trotted and jumped, holding the booklet, and disappeared at the end of Wutong Street.

After Zhang Xiaoshan left, Xiong Ercai on the side muttered, "It's really the same as Princess Roujia, but there are more serious times!"

Li Congjia turned his head suspiciously, it turned out that in Xiong Er's heart, Rou Jia was usually not serious.

Just didn't say anything, the two walked back to Lane 17, and then they should think about it, when Li Shuangshuang comes back, how to explain all this, after all, the door at home is broken, and Li Shuangshuang will definitely have to spend money again.

…………

A teahouse in Wuyi Lane, two floors, here is not to say how much tea is delicious, the famous is just that there is a blind man in the building, the blind man wears a black robe all the year round, his eyes are covered with black cloth, he holds a fan in his hand, sits on the wooden platform on the first floor of the teahouse, and tells the story in a low voice.

This is storytelling, the blind man is very famous, whether it is an ordinary person, or an unknown surname of the dignitaries, all praise his field, all day long in the teahouse is endless, the voice is boiling, but as long as the blind man in the hall in the hand of the shocking wood sounds, the teahouse immediately becomes silent, this is the rule of listening to the book, the sound of the hall wood, means to talk about the most wonderful place, listen to the book everyone should hold their breath and stand their ears, do not disturb the ears of others.

Today's rain breaks, tea is served in the teahouse, and the cool body drinks a cup of hot tea, and then listens to the story told by the blind old Xu, which is really unhappy.

What I said today seems to be a secret, and ordinary people are most interested in this kind of secret in Jinling City, and they all widen their eyes, prick up their ears, and stretch out their heads to look at the stage.

"A few days ago, the king of Wu went to Chang'an as a hostage, and there was no return, the royal family of Jinling was ruthless, and enjoyed peace for 16 years, Lao Xu recently got a news, so as to talk to everyone about the previous paragraph......" Lao Xu did not open his mouth, then stopped, only to see him take a sip of tea, smacked his mouth, moistened his throat, and then said, "The royal ruthless, the most responsive, but who would have thought that His Royal Highness King Wu, who went to Chang'an, came back alive, but his legs were more lame, the day was August 15, it was the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the royal family held a banquet in Xingqing Palace, At this moment, the king of Wu was kneeling outside the hall, waiting for the emperor to summon him, but who would have thought that the emperor would forget about it, until the next morning, he hurriedly summoned a cadre of Honglu Temple and so on, only that, the king of Wu who was usually dressed was angry, he didn't even worship, and threw the new Song dynasty book in his hand in the hall, and the official Lin Hua immediately refuted King Wu's disobedience to the law of etiquette, like a barbarian's behavior, but how could the king of Wu be raised in Chang'an for sixteen years, provoked a barbarian behavior, and immediately kicked Lin Hua over, threw his sleeves and left!

"Smack!"

Under the shocking sound, the most wonderful is coming, the blind old man Xu Chang took a breath, slowly spit it out again, and then said, "Who thinks that the old emperor is not angry but happy, and praises the king of Wu for his strong temperament, even if he is rewarded with ten thousand taels of gold, countless jewels and brocades, and the king pearl, who expected that the king of Wu immediately scolded, and the hall of the direct scolding was silent, and the old emperor who scolded was slumped on the dragon chair, and the Lin Hua who scolded was paralyzed to the ground, and the feces and urine flowed!"

"Smack!"

The blind man stopped talking, shook his head, breathed a long sigh of relief, and then turned the folds on his face to pile up, spread out the folding fan, and shook slowly.
