Chapter 6: Selling one's body to bury one's father

"You invite this meal, don't rob me of the next meal!"

"Cheng, whatever you say is what you say, it's all right."

After breakfast at a small stall on the street, Shi Zhongtai and Zhou Kangren chatted about the future while taking a walk and eating.

"If any old lady is willing to pay for my father to buy a coffin and bury it, I will repay your kindness even if I am a cow and a horse in the next life. Please, ladies and gentlemen, please. ”

Sweep the snow in front of the door, and don't care about the frost on the tiles.

This is the principle of Shi Zhongtai, but I don't want to stop this time and raise my eyes to see. I saw a corpse placed in a pile of weeds on the side of the street, with a few weeds scattered on it, the cleaned toes were exposed, the yellowed calluses were still with dry cracks, and the softest part of Shi Zhongtai's heart was pried.

"Kangren"

"Well, what's wrong? Brother Zhongtai, you don't want to be kind, right? ”

With a self-deprecating smile, Shi Zhongtai still opened his mouth, "Yes." You know my situation, but Kangren, there are some things that even if I am a mud bodhisattva and it is difficult to protect myself, I still have to do what I should do. ”

Shaking his head angrily, Zhou Kangren still took out a silver ingot from his arms and put it in Shi Zhongtai's hand.

"Go, my great good man."

However, when Shi Zhongtai turned around, Zhou Kangren's face still showed a knowing smile.

"Man, pick it up!"

Greeting the man, Shi Zhongtai threw the silver far away, and just 'put' it was in the man's arms. smiled faintly, and praised without hesitation, "Well done!" ”

"Hurry up, go into the ground for peace, and mourn and change."

After that, he didn't care about Zhou Kangren, and left quickly. A second before he looked away, Shi Zhongtai saw flickering tears in the man's eyes.

The boy doesn't flick when he has tears, but he hasn't reached the sad place. Whether it was himself in his previous life or Shi Zhongtai in this life, he didn't want to see the hot jacks of stones from the eyes of a real man.

"Walk well, what are you running?"

"I want to run, what's the matter, you still care about me shitting and farting!"

"Zhongtai, you, you, you are a scholar. How can you say such a thing from the mouth of a man who reads. ”

Zhou Kang's face turned blue, but the outstretched finger was only a few empty points, and he had no choice but to take it back.

"Can't get used to it? It doesn't matter, as long as you don't leave, let's get used to it, what you can't get used to is still behind. ”

Seeing Shi Zhongtai's unkind smile, Zhou Kangren only felt that he had made the wrong friend and recognized the wrong person.

"Oh okay, even if I didn't say it, oh no, I said the wrong thing, can't it?"

Seeing that this guy was really more serious, Shi Zhongtai's tone was three points weaker.

"No wonder you don't even have a friend by your side, you say, just your face on a sunny day and heavy rain for a while, who can stand it! Except for me, I guess there aren't many of them! ”

"There are not many friends in Jingjing, and there is Brother Kang Ren alone, which is enough."

It seemed like a joke to say it, but Shi Zhongtai's words were engraved in Zhou Kangren's heart like an imprint.

"Smack"

"I'll go first."

"Smack"

"I'm not going to send it."

The two patted each other's shoulders silently, and the two dispersed with a simple single sentence. Between men, everything is in plain sight. You know, I know, God knows, God knows.

"Master Tanhua, you're back."

"Well, this early in the morning, Shopkeeper Tang has worked hard."

Since Shizhongtai won Tanhualang, the days when the Tang shopkeeper got up early are one day at a time.

"The little ones are not hard, but the hard ones are you, master."

"By the way, Master, there are a few people who have been waiting for you for a long time."

"Yes, thank you."

Although he had doubts in his heart, in the face of this shopkeeper Tang who could drill at every opportunity, Shi Zhongtai would not ask all the questions.

"Master Shi is polite, the people who came to find the adults were those last night."

"Shopkeeper Tang, you're busy, let me go over and take a look."

Bowing to the shopkeeper Tang, Shi Zhongtai walked into the inn.

The shopkeeper Tang is also very good at doing things, and when the Tai people in the division were talking, he also deliberately stood outside the door to give him the wind, but this wind was not even enough to drink hot tea, and the shopkeeper Tang saw that the previous few people walked out in a panic, and disappeared in the blink of an eye when he got into the carriage.

What's the situation, wait for more than an hour, and leave before meeting for less than a cup of tea, what does this Boss Wang mean.

This family business should be done, right?

Before the Tang shopkeeper came out with the results, he went into the inn to take a look, and all he saw was the tail shadow of Shi Zhongtai.

Following.

Shi Zhongtai walked down from the second floor with a package.

"Master, what are you?"

"Shopkeeper Tang, thank you for taking care of me during the time I have lived with you. The kindness of the shopkeeper Tang was recorded by my teacher Zhongtai, but I still have to give the money for this house. ”

As he spoke, he took out an ingot of silver weighing more than ten taels from his bosom and put it on the counter.

"Master, you are polite to the little one, the little one said before..."

"Shopkeeper Tang said that it belongs to Shopkeeper Tang, I will write down this situation, and you can take this silver with peace of mind."

After that, he stopped looking at him, and walked out of the inn with the package on his back.

Shi Zhongtai, who was standing on the street, seemed to have changed his appearance, his waist became more and more straight, and the smile on his face became more bright.

"Boss Cao is right, I'd rather teach me to bear the world than teach the world to bear me. is a daughter, that is, a man, if she doesn't make waves, how can she be worthy of my soul wearing compatriots! ”

"Childe, are you alright?"

I'll go, which thing that doesn't have long eyes, it will really be interrupted!

is reading the great oath, but he doesn't want to be interrupted, Shi Zhongtai's mood can not be said to be angry!

"How are you?"

"Childe, it's the villain."

But I didn't want to, but it was the man who sold himself on the street to bury his father who interrupted Shi Zhongtai's passionate speech, which made Shi Zhongtai really a little surprised.

"Old man, are you buried?"

"Well, the son gave a small ingot of silver, removed the coffin one or two, two pieces of incense paper, four dollars for hiring people, and the rest is all here."

The man said, his dirty hand holding a pile of white silver.

Shi Zhongtai waved his hand and said with a smile, "No need, this money is for you, take it and go back to marry a daughter-in-law and live a good life." ”

"I don't know a few words, but my father taught me that I have to talk about conscience. As I said before, whoever pays me to bury my father will be a cow and a horse for a lifetime. It was Gongzi who gave me silver, and now I should give Gongzi you a cow and a horse for a lifetime. ”

"No, buddy, I..."

"I beg Gongzi not to drive the big cow away, and the big cow is willing to be a subordinate to Gongzi."

As he spoke, Da Niu still knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

"Hey, you talk to talk, don't kneel. What's going on with you? ”
