Chapter Fifty-Eight: That's How It Happened
originally thought that this scene was just a perfunctory past with two people at random, but I never thought that the county government also sent someone to the state overnight to invite a few people to come to the stage to perform for the people.
It is said that the play to be performed is still a big song such as Qupo!
This is a kind of stage performance of a large scale of acrobatics, in which the music, drum lyrics, stories, and dances are very rich, and it is very desirable and not to be missed, so the dog called a few people to get up early in the morning, washed and eaten, and everything was cleaned up and waited for the gong to ring in the street.
Waiting left and right but waiting for a nasty person, seeing that he smiled at himself with a smiling face as soon as he entered the door, a bad feeling rose in his heart, sure enough.
"Little Brother Zhao, are you going out to watch a play?"
The dog pouted and didn't talk.
"Puppy, my brother has something to do you a little favor!" Zhao Zhutou rubbed his hands and smiled.
The dog rolled his eyes and twisted his head to the side, the master is in no mood to help you because he wants to watch a big show!
Seeing this, Zhao Zhutou hurriedly patted his chest and said: "Dog, it's not a big deal, if it weren't for my brother's lack of recruitment, I wouldn't have delayed coming to you to watch the show!" Good dog, help my brother once, I'll ......"
Watching him talk non-stop, the dog sighed, this guy is a master who doesn't see rabbits and doesn't scatter eagles, count his own back, and run out early so that he can't find anyone.
Interrupted him with a wave of his hand: "Brother Zhao, just say anything about it, if the kid can help, he won't shirk it."
Zhao Zhutou hurriedly said: "Dog, today is really busy, half of the servants in the yamen have been transferred to the land and temple field, and the remaining servants are divided into four squares, there are not a few left, the manpower is really insufficient, and there is no way to investigate secretly, and my brother doesn't want to waste this rare opportunity so he has to come to you!" ”
The dog was stunned and said: "There are not enough people to find Liu Sanlang!" How can we help you? ”
Zhao Zhutou said: "My brother went to find Liu Sanlang, and Sanlang said that he had no choice, after all, there are still people guarding the yamen, what if these robbers take advantage of the chaos to rob the prison again!" ”
After finishing speaking, he coughed twice and sneered: "San Lang said, you have twenty or thirty little beggars under you?" My brother wants to borrow it from you, so that they can go out into the streets to help find out the news. ”
In a word, the dog's heart is entangled, what does it mean that there are more than 30 people under me, if this word reaches the ears of those who have a heart, a summons will be detained in the yamen, and then a meal of 'bamboo board fried meat' This little life will be explained.
At the moment, he said to him angrily: "Brother Zhao, what are you talking about, those beggars are my partners but not subordinates, don't listen to Liu Sanlang's nonsense, they are all poor people who huddle together for warmth, but I am closer to them, after all, there are many people from a village!" ”
Zhao Zhutou nodded hurriedly, and the dog said: "Normally, it's no problem to let them help listen to the news, but with such a big scene today, I can't guarantee that they will be willing!" ”
Zhao Zhutou sighed and said, "Brother Lao, go and talk about it, if you have any requirements, just mention it." ”
The dog smiled and said: "What my brother said is that there are so many people outside, and those beggars will definitely take this opportunity to ask for more food, and they don't have to eat hungry on the day of the province." ”
Zhao Zhutou said: "It's okay, it's okay, brother go and ask, as long as you can catch these robbers, a little money won't get in the way!" ”
The dog said: "In that case, I'll ask for my brother!" You sit here for a while, and I don't know if this group of babies has run out, so I'll go and see. ”
Zhao Zhutou said the best, and got up to send the dog away.
Walking on this street from time to time to see a group of men and women gathered together to go to the land temple field, the dog was envious, thinking of going to see the big play after finishing the work, so the pace of the feet unconsciously accelerated, and only two quarters passed when he ran to the beggar's shack in Xichengfang.
A group of beggars, large and small, hadn't gotten up yet, and as soon as they dragged Wang Xiaoyi to tell him, they saw him rubbing his eyes and shaking his head again and again.
"Watch a fart show" The dog said angrily: "I can't eat enough to eat, and I still have the heart to go to the show!" After a while, he called them all up and followed me to see Zhao Zhutou. ”
Seeing that he was still unwilling, the dog sighed and said: "Are you stupid, anyway, you are running around, you really want to watch it, just go around and watch it secretly for a while, the play is going to be played for a day, are you still afraid that you won't have the opportunity to watch it?" Listen to me, hurry up and call them up! ”
Wang Xiaoyi pouted and went back to the house, and the smell inside was too choking and the dog stood outside waiting, and after a while, he heard the movement in the house, and a group of people came out one after another.
The strange smell of the overnight and the rancid smell almost smoked the dog, and the angry dog scolded: "A bunch of lazy people, I don't know how to clean up myself, and I don't need any money for water, look at the difference between your dirty appearance and the beggars who beg for food all over the street!" ”
Wang Xiaoyi said weakly: "Brother, we are beggars!" ”
kicked Wang Xiaoyi on the heel, pointed at the group of people and scolded: "You all go to the well and wash your hands and faces, if anyone can't wash it, throw him into the well." ”
After the last few incidents, these beggars are a little afraid of dogs in their hearts, although they know that he gets along much better than Zhang Dalang and the lepers and Scars, but a bunch of people just can't play with him, and some people will even go far away when they encounter dogs on the road, and they don't know what they are afraid of!
After a pillar of incense, such a strange scene suddenly appeared in the beggar's nest in Xichengfang, a group of old and young beggars lined up in a queue, obediently standing by the well and waiting to wash their faces.
There was also a small man with a thin branch next to him, who from time to time drove back the beggars who had not been washed and washed them again, which amazed the passers-by for a while.
Seeing that a group of people had washed their little faces cleanly, the dog let them go, waved their hands and asked them all to follow him to the small courtyard of the Ba family.
Here, Wang Daya followed Hu Daba to the gate of the West City first, and the outsiders who went out as usual would still be searched, and they remembered it in their hearts, so they followed the route to the north, and all the people who met the people who went to the theater along the way hid on the side early, so they hid and checked the north, the east and then went to the south gate.
A circle is finished, did not find any special circumstances, when I came out was warned by the boss not to go to the land temple to watch the big show did not dare to come over, only a distant look at the crowd is very lively, see that the sky is about to noon, the stomach is just hungry, just copy the hand and go back.
Before he walked out of Nanchengfang, Wang Daya's eyes turned to Hu Daba and said, "Bus, are we going back like this?" ”
Hu Daba nodded.
Wang Daya said unwillingly: "Why don't we go and have two glasses of wine?" ”
Hu Daba shook his head and said: "Forget it, let's pay more attention to today's special big brother, let's go back early!" ”
Wang Daya looked at the empty neighborhood and turned his head and said: "I can't see anyone on this street, guess those black-footed dogs must have watched the big show, what is there to worry about, I am bored in the hole, I can't do it, I finally came out or I should go around more, or let's find a place to gamble?" ”
Hu Daba looks like a very stable man, but in fact he is a bad gambler, his father Hu Laoba herded sheep for a lifetime, and left him 20 fat sheep and 30 acres of dry land until he died.
This person usually loves some gambling chess, dice rolling, cockfighting, dog fighting, fighting crickets, these games, but with his father in town, he didn't dare to go too far, and after Hu Laoba died, he suddenly found that no one could control himself anymore, so he became out of control, first lost the sheep, and was stopped by his family for a while.
After two years, the gambling addiction was committed again, the family had no money to let him gamble and went to borrow the usury of the gambling house, as the saying goes, gambling for a long time will lose, and all the gamblers in the world have the idea of stopping to win the capital back.
When he saw this, his Hun family wanted to go to the yamen to reconcile with him, and then he was given a deed of sale to the gambling house by the red-eyed Hu Daba, and at this point the fangs of the usury were revealed, the house was taken away, and the family of three was also driven out.
said that nothing else could attract him, as long as he mentioned this gambling word, his hand would itch.
At the moment, he said to Wang Daya: "The little gamblers are not in the way, but I have looked everywhere in this city, and I really haven't found a gambling house!" I think it's because the city is so forbidden that it's all closed. ”
Wang Daya smiled and said: "Brother, how can there be a cat in the world that doesn't steal fish, it must be hidden in the dark!" ”
When it comes to gambling, Hu Daba has already left the task assigned by the boss behind, and asked suspiciously: "You don't know where to hide, how to play!" ”
Wang Daya smiled and threw the pebble in his hand far away, then got up and stopped the two little babies passing by.
"Boy, grandpa asked you where is the money in your neighborhood? Tell me honestly, or grandpa will throw you into the dung pit! ”
Like a sausage was carried back and forth in the air, it was really embarrassing, fortunately only Hu Dakang saw around, the dog sighed unlucky, several people were a little hungry at noon, only to find out when they dug out of their pockets, forgot to bring money, originally wanted to let the dog run back to get it, who knew that this goods were playing with Dasha, and they didn't want to go back, so they had to call Dakang to go together.
As soon as I entered this alley, I saw these two people squatting on the side of the road muttering and muttering, and I felt that I was not a good person and wanted to hide away, but who would have thought that there was such a thing, looking at the big man with two rows of big yellow teeth, and the stench from his mouth was all over his face, and the dog quickly covered his face with both hands and said: "Good man, don't hurt the boy's life, put me down quickly and I will tell you everything!" ”
Wang Daya shook the dog viciously and said, "Boy, look at your flamboyant tongue and tell me carefully, if I find out that you have a lie, grandpa will really throw you into the dung pit!" ”
The dog hurriedly said: "Don't dare, don't dare!" ”
When he let go of his hand, the dog hurriedly unbuttoned the collar of his neck, and even gasped for a long time before he smiled and said: "Two heroes, the city has recently been strictly investigated, and the blockade has been changed to the underground in order not to cause trouble, and the nearest private file from here is near the South City Gate, you two go forward along this road, enter the second alley and then ......."
"Stop, stop, how can this grandfather who walks around remember it, you two boys lead us there!"
Dogs: ......
Those who dare to come like this in broad daylight are either arrogant yamen people or bold bandits, and then look at the dress of these two people, okay!
It is estimated that the person Zhao Zhutou searched for and scraped his stomach was fulfilled by these two people.
