Chapter 45: The Second Year of Zhenguan

Wang Liu's chopped meat filling, Su Bai prepared some spices to taste, ready, and started to make dumplings and eat dumplings at night. Mahjong or something is a bit of a struggle, playing cards came into being, and the landlord was born!

But the name needs to be changed, the landlord's current energy is still not small, and it's not good to fight the landlord or something. After thinking about it, it's called fighting poker. Easy to remember! Taught Wang Xing first, and then the old man, the third happy poker officially set sail!

"To Five"

"Can't afford it"

"Airplane"

"Grandson, why is this called an airplane? What is an airplane? ”

"That's right, Da Niu, and that rocket, and bomb, why is the name so strange?"

"Oh, it's good to be happy, don't worry about these details, come on, no one wants me to continue out"

"Slow down, plane, big you!"

After Wang Liu and his grandmother were also familiar with the rules of the game, Grandpa and Wang Xing were replaced, and they could only watch from the side, until the neighbors came to pay New Year's greetings in the afternoon, and when they visited the door, Grandpa and Wang Xing taught them how to play, and there was nothing difficult to make a pair of poker.

It is believed that in a few days, this new type of entertainment will spread throughout the cattle village. After playing poker for an afternoon, I started to make dumplings when it was close to evening, Datang did not have the Spring Festival Gala, and the villagers did not have the habit of vigil, and the food of dumplings won unanimous praise from the whole family! Wang Xing decided to add this kind of food to the store next year, Su Bai told him that he could wrap a lot of fillings at that time, such as people who chant Buddha can eat vegetarian stuffing here, etc., the two of them talked about this dumpling problem in full swing, and Wang Liu, who saw it, shook his head and smiled bitterly, and talked about these during the New Year.

Sleep when it's dark at night, this is also the standard life of Datang, made at sunrise and rested at sunset, just like that, in the ordinary, Su Bai spent his first year in Datang, Zhenguan for a year!

......

Early the next morning, on the first day of the Lunar New Year in the second year of Zhenguan, before dawn, there was a shouting of the groom outside the door, Su Bai changed his clothes, Wang Liu had already cooked the meal for Su Bai, yesterday's dumplings were hotter, and after the two of them ate, they led Wang Xiaobao, who was also sleepy-eyed, to sit in the carriage.

The fare is exaggerated, one tael of silver! Such a high price can usually make him run back and forth more than ten times, but this New Year's Day, everyone is willing to come out to pick you up, and of course it won't work without a suitable price. The coachman shrank in his sheepskin fur, frozen with a layer of white frost on his beard, and asked Su Bai tremblingly: "Gong, Gongzi, on such a cold day, go back to Chang'an."

Su Bai was not much better in the car, after all, the carriage did not have air conditioning, and he also trembled and said: "No, no way, the store, the store is open", the horse groom admired: "At such a young age, the son can prepare an industry in Chang'an, I am really envious", Su Bai smiled, and I don't know if he is polite or sincere, it doesn't matter, it sounds very cool anyway.

When the day was just dawning, the carriage arrived in Chang'an, entered the Qunxian Fang, came to the front of Liao Zhai, and looked at the archway from top to bottom, which was tied with red cloth, and the big red flower made of red satin, which looked so bright, and the plaque of Liao Zhai was also covered with a big red cloth, and it seemed that it could not be taken down until the ribbon was cut.

Wang Xiaobao went up and knocked on the door and said: "Hurry up and open the door, the second owner is back", there was a sparse sound in the house, and about a minute, the door opened inside, and a runner said: "The second owner, you are back, come in and warm up." Su Bai didn't talk nonsense, it was so cold outside, it was so cold that his snot was about to flow out, so how could he have time to be polite.

Stepping into the chat, several people who ran the hall heard the sound and came to the front hall, saw Su Bai bowed and said: "The owner", Su Bai waved his hand and said: "Go and let the cook make me some porridge and bring it over", a clever running hall ran to the back kitchen in three steps and five steps, and the rest of the people came around to listen to the owner's words.

Su Bai looked left and right and said, "What about the fat man?" Of course, the runners knew who Su Bai was asking, and one of them said: "The big boss will come later, and it will arrive around the hour", Su Bai nodded and continued to ask: "Have you notified Mr. Guo?" "No, Li Er will go to greet Mr. Guo when the time comes", Su Bai nodded, the fat man is a careful person, he doesn't have to worry about these things himself, just tell the runners to go and rest first, they are tired of opening today.

It didn't take long for the hall to bring two bowls of porridge and some small pickles, which tasted like radish skin, Su Bai and Wang Xiaobao drank a few sips and ate overheated food, so they felt a little more relieved, Su Bai looked around carefully, and he was still quite satisfied with the decoration of this chatzhai.

The curtains and scenery on the stage are also very gorgeous, and the story of today's performance is the "White Fox" that has gone viral in the Tang Dynasty, and the advertisement has been played out in advance, and Cheng Xiaogong also released a word, saying that he has wrapped up the private room upstairs, and he is guaranteed to fill it up!

There are ninety-nine chairs under the stage, Su Bai believes that there is still no problem, there is a small table in front of each stool, about the same size as the small table on the train, and there are numbers on it, and some tea and snacks will be placed on it at that time.

When the time came, the two sturdy runners went out to pick up Mr. Guo, and Mr. Guo didn't go out to tell stories these days, believing that Mr. Guo should be anxious to make so much less money.

Wang Fatzi came very early today, probably because of the reason that he was going to open today, and the two runners just left. The fat man took Zhang San and other servants to Liaozhai together, and when he saw Su Bai, he was still stunned, and ran over and said, "When did you come back?" "Around the time" and "hard work".

Wang Fatzi is still wearing makeup today, just like what he painted when he saw Cheng Chumo that day, when the big face moved, there was a sense of 'peach'! Ugly! Ugly horse! Several girls were wearing costumes, Chunhua played the white fox, Xia Hua played the princess, Qiuhua played the guard, and the other two servants played the housekeeper and guard.

Su Bai smiled and encouraged two sentences: "Today is your debut, whether we can start the signboard depends on a few of you, I am in charge, as long as I perform well today, each person will be rewarded with a silver tael!" A few people laughed, they also knew Su Bai's character in the past few months, although he loved money very much, but he said nothing, as long as he said it, he would definitely be able to do it.

Encouraged two sentences to let them rest first, today's noon is the auspicious time calculated by the master, saying that it is the noon of the first day of the new year, the yang energy is the strongest, and the meaning of red and hot is taken. Wang Fatzi sat on the chair, stretched out his hand to tidy up his clothes and said, "Ugly cow, do you think the little grandfather will come today?" Su Bai shook his head and said, "It's hard to say, after we sent this out, I haven't seen the little grandfather for some days." Wang Fatzi nodded and said: "That's right, didn't the little grandfather say that he would bring his friends over to see "Painted Skin", but he didn't come, he just listened to Mr. Guo's book at the door, and he never came again after "The Legend of the White Snake" was finished."

Su Bai was silent, he couldn't figure out why Cheng Chumo hadn't come to chat for so long, Wang Fatzi was a little worried: "Could it be that Grandpa Guo knows about this matter and doesn't want Grandpa to mix with our businessmen?" ”。

Su Bai shook his head and said: "No, like a big family like someone, people have 10,000 ways to interfere with our chat, and don't let outsiders know, it's useless for us to think about it now, let's wait until the opening time to take a look." Wang Fatzi can only nod, people are nobles, he and Su Bai are commoners, can he still go to other people's mansions to find it? It's weird not to let people play out!

Mr. Guo also came to Liaozhai while talking, and the three of them hugged their fists to say hello, Mr. Guo's status in Liaozhai was second only to the two owners, so he sat under Su Bai and smiled: "Two owners, will the little grandfather come over today?" Su Bai shook his head and smiled bitterly: "We haven't seen the little grandfather for a few days, and I really don't know if he will come today." After saying that, you could see Mr. Guo's expression, obviously disappointed, Su Bai smiled and asked, "How are the two old men doing?" ”

Mr. Guo hugged his fists: "Xie Dongjia cares, the body of the second elder has been a lot stronger these days" A guest walked in while speaking, looking at the clothes should be an ordinary person, he walked in and looked at the three people: "I'm here to see the play, the store, where to pay the money?" ”。

As soon as Wang Fatzi heard that the guests came, he quickly instructed the restaurant to take the guests to pay the money, in fact, the counter that collected the money was on the left not far from the door, the guests were with coupons, paid fifty yuan, chose the best position to sit down and asked: "Store, I don't know when it will start?" Wang Fatzi laughed twice and said: "This big brother came early, and we chatted at noon before the official opening."

The man nodded and said, "That's okay, just wait a little longer, Mr. Guo, I can't hear you talk about books these days, it really makes me think about it." Mr. Guo laughed and even said that his brother is in love.

This guest seems to be a beginning, one after another guests began to enter the chat, most of them are people who come with vouchers, and occasionally two or three businessmen are mixed in, and in the blink of an eye, at the end of the day, the ninety-nine chairs on the first floor are full, and the remaining guests can only aggrieved them to stand and watch.

At noon, seeing that the little grandfather still didn't come, Wang Fatzi was a little disappointed, not to mention him, even Su Bai was also a little disappointed, the two walked up to the stage and bowed to the audience: "Thank you brothers and sisters, my father and fellow villagers are cheering, today is the day of my opening of Liaozhai, there is nothing to give to everyone, only a piece of heart"

"Grandpa Cheng has arrived!"

Just as the two were talking, the person running at the door shouted excitedly......
