Chapter 17 [Mr. Bao, Bend Your Waist for Money]
Chang'an is the imperial capital, and it can't hide any trouble, Li Yun and Cheng Chumo have just finished smashing Cui's warehouse, and the news has already spread.
It's not an exaggeration to be a sensation.
The city was filled with excitement and chatter.
"Hey, have you heard, Cheng Chumo of the Lu Guogong Mansion smashed the Qinghe Cui's warehouse. It's amazing, that's the five surnames and seven hopes of the top gate valve, I didn't expect this kid to dare to smash it. ”
"How fresh, who is Cheng Chumo, the well-known little overlord of Chang'an, just his stunned temper, not to mention smashing the Qinghe Cui family, or smashing the Taiyuan Wang family, I am not surprised."
"It's amazing, Cheng Chumo really deserves to be Cheng Chumo."
"You guys are wrong, this time smashing Qinghe Cui's family is not Cheng Chumo's idea, as far as I know, it is his master......"
"What? Master? ”
"Cheng Chumo actually has a master?"
An idle man was stunned and stupid, and it took a long time before he said with a stunned face: "Cheng Chumo himself is already the eldest son of the Guogong Mansion, as long as nothing happens, he will definitely be able to inherit the position of a Guogong, and the eldest son of the dignified Guogong will even apprentice, so what should his master be?" Could it be that there is another more ruthless little overlord in Chang'an City? ”
Suddenly, someone's face turned blue, and his mouth trembled: "It's very good, if this is the case, then the days after this will be even more unbearable." ”
At this time, a 'well-informed' person suddenly stood up, and said with a mysterious face: "You know that you are too backward, and the contemptible people have already found out, that master is not an ordinary person......
"Not an ordinary person?"
"Could it be the Prince?"
The crowd hula gathered around, dragging the 'well-informed' person to ask a question urgently, "Mr. Bao, don't sell the guanzi again, hurry up and tell everyone what the origin of that master is." ”
"Where did it come from?" The well-informed person snorted again, pretending to be mysterious: "That's amazing!" ”
This guy first raised his hand and scratched the hair in front of his eyebrows, and then slowly played with the corners of his clothes, and after doing enough work, he coughed proudly and said slowly: "According to what I have investigated, that master is a homeless man, about sixteen or seventeen years old, and belongs to a young man who has not yet reached the crown. ”
Everyone was stunned, and then they were all a little disappointed, some people frowned and shook their heads frequently, and muttered: "It turned out to be a homeless person, and he was a teenager, what kind of origin is this, and his identity is worse than mud." ”
"It's extreme, it's a homeless person, Mr. Bao, your news this time is not shocking enough."
That Mr. Bao's face was a little unbearable, and he couldn't help but snort coldly when he heard this, and said disdainfully: "You just think he is a homeless person, so you look down on others?" You don't want to think about it, what is the identity of the little overlord of Chang'an, he can bend down and worship a homeless person as a teacher, how can this homeless person have an ordinary origin? ”
These words can be regarded as deep and logical words, but everyone shook their heads and laughed, and someone said bluntly: "If it is another son's apprenticeship, then we really have to ponder the identity of this homeless person, but unfortunately it is Cheng Chu who is silently apprenticed, ahaha, what stupid thing can't that second stunned person do?" Maybe his brain was hot, and he worshipped in a daze. ”
"It's extreme, it's extreme, and what Cheng does silently can't be inferred from common sense. Mr. Bao, your reputation for inquiring about is going to be disgraced. ”
"Nonsense!"
Mr. Bao's face was a little unbearable, and he suddenly stomped his feet irritably, and pointed to everyone: "Have you ever known that when Cheng Chumo smashed the store, the contemptible people were in the West Market, and I witnessed Cheng Chumo's power, and I also witnessed his master's power." It's very good, the courage of the overlord......"
Everyone was stunned for a moment, and some people couldn't help but be curious, and asked out loud: "Listen to what you mean, that little master is more ruthless than Cheng Chumo?" ”
"It's not ruthless, it's fierce!"
Mr. Bao glanced at him slightly, suddenly popped out a finger, and gestured: "One punch, just one punch, you can't imagine how fierce that young man's fist is, he only punched at that time, and one punch broke a Wuhou's saber!" Tsk, we've all heard of empty-handed white-knuckles, but who has ever heard of empty-handed shattering weapons? ”
As he spoke, he glanced at everyone, and said: "Not only did he break Wuhou's saber, but he also beat people to vomit blood, do you know who the person who was beaten?" It is Sun San, the martial marquis of Yali in Chang'an County, who is Sun San, that is the old pawn who retired from Zuo Wuwei, and he has murderous kung fu on his body, but he can't bear a punch. The contemptible people were present at the time and saw it very clearly, Sun San was punched by the young man and flew out, falling out more than ten feet away, blood was spurting from his mouth and nose, and his chest collapsed directly......"
That's a bit of a brag.
At that time, Li Yun did beat Wuhou Sun San away, but he only flew five or six steps away, but when he reached Mr. Bao's mouth, it suddenly changed, and it turned out to be flying ten zhang away.
Ten zhang and five or six steps, the difference between this is big enough.
Someone grabbed Mr. Bao's arm and hurriedly urged: "Go on, go on, Mr. Bao, do you have any other news?" ”
At this time, Mr. Bao 'dragged' up, suddenly pretended to be tired, and said meaningfully: "I have been talking dryly for a long time, and my contemptible throat is a little smoky." ”
"Let's invite you to eat and drink, and make up money to invite you to eat and drink...... a few idlers opened their mouths in a row, patting their chests and promised: "Whoever wants to invite you or not is a grandson, and we will find a wine shop to invite you to eat later." ”
Mr. Bao was satisfied, but he still took advantage of the fire to rob, and then made a request: "I have to give ten yuan a lot, otherwise I will go home." ”
A few idlers looked at each other, and someone scolded: "You are also a scholar, and you have been in the eyes of money in this life, Mr. Bao, are you ashamed?" ”
Mr. Bao's face turned a little red, and he suddenly turned his head and walked: "If you don't listen, I won't eat the wine." ”
Fortunately, there was an old man in the crowd, who stepped forward to stop Mr. Bao, but turned around and scolded a few idlers: "You all know the situation of Mr. Bao's family, there are patients in his family who have to take medicine every day, is it a lot of money?" The big guy got together for him. ”
Ten cents is not much, but it is not too little, a group of idlers hummed and chirped, and in the end no one agreed, obviously the invitation to eat and drink just now is also boasting, and he simply wants to lie to Mr. Bao to say things.
The old man sighed, suddenly tore off the money bag from his waist, then counted out ten copper coins from it, handed it to Mr. Bao and said, "This money is old and decayed, and Mr. Bao can't be left busy in vain." You also need to go back and forth to find out the news, and this money should be Mr. Bao's foot money. ”
Mr. Bao's face was still swollen and red.
But he still lowered his head and took the money.
It seemed a little ashamed, and he didn't dare to look up for a while.
"When will I be like that young man, waving my fists, smiling and proud of Xishi, acting without fear, and not bending over for ten cents......"
These are the words in Mr. Bao's heart.
He remembered that he saw Li Yunfawei's back not long ago, and suddenly envied that young man. However, the reality is very cruel, he is just a Luotuo scholar who reaches out and begs for money.
For only ten pennies, he had to bend down.
The old man penetrated the world and people, and said with a kind face: "Don't care about Mr. Bao, the old man is also a shopkeeper, and this copper coin can still be afforded, you don't need to be ashamed." ”
Mr. Bao shook his head lonely, and said with a gloomy face: "The contemptible person is not guilty of collecting money, the sage has clouds, the elders give it, dare not give it, the reward you give, the contemptible person should continue, I am ashamed that I am also a dignified scholar, but I have been reduced to bending my waist for ten cents, I reached out and took the money, what is the difference between it and the beggar on the street?" Humiliation in my heart, humiliation in my heart......"
Lao Su patted him on the shoulder and comforted: "This is a drag from the family, and the old man thinks you should hold your head high." You have worked tirelessly to take care of your sick wife and young daughter, and you are indeed a model of husband and father. ”
Mr. Bao arched his hand in thanks, and sighed again, and someone secretly looked at the corner of his eye, and vaguely found that there was crystal wetness leaching.
