The Romance of the Famous Marshals of the Early Tang Dynasty Li Jichuan

Chapter Fifty-Eight: Xu Rat Trains Two Crooked

Xu Maogong (Li Ji) said with a smile: "Dad, it is not difficult to teach Wei Ying a set of boxing techniques, but now, the matter of Miss Kong being pulled by Zhang Yanei in Jixiang Restaurant has not been completely resolved, I am still hiding in Wagangzhai, and now teaching Wei Ying boxing techniques, the timing is not good."

Xu Gai asked with a smile: "Son, how can you tell your grandfather?"

Xu Maogong (Li Ji) thought for a while and said: "Dad, let's just say that our family is moving from Weinan County to Caozhou Mansion (Heze Ancient Title of Shandong), and we are busy with moving."

Xu Gai said with a smile: "Son, I have to say so, just send a letter to tell your grandfather, your mother said yesterday: Wei Ying, this little girl, will not stop until she achieves her goal, this kind of tenacity is stronger than your two sisters."

After speaking, Xu Gai stood up and said, "Son, I'm going back, your mother is still waiting for news at home."

Xu Maogong (Li Ji) said with a smile: "Dad, I'll send you to the gate of Qianzhai."

Xu Gai said with a smile: "Son, yesterday morning before dawn, your mother woke me up, made your favorite simmered male duck, stewed for twelve hours, wrapped this morning, put it in a king-size food box and brought it to you, I made ten meat buns for Xu Mouse this morning." The housekeeper didn't let me take it to the cottage and said: Lu Yuan is carrying Shen on his back, you ride a horse to send me out of the village, and let the horses carry famous dishes and buns back to Zhongzhai. ”

Xu Maogong (Li Ji) said: "Xu Mouse, you go and lead the horse, and we will send the master out of the village."

Xu Mouse responded: "Yes." He turned around and went out to lead his horse.

Xu Gai and Xu Maogong (Li Ji) rode a horse together, and Xu Rat rode a horse to the gate of Wagangzhai.

Mu Jiu, the captain on duty on the high corner tower, saw that the person on the horse was Xu Maogong (Li Ji) and shouted loudly: "It's Xu Gongzi, open the door quickly."

After Mu Jiu finished shouting, he hurriedly ran down from the high corner tower, came to Xu Maogong's (Li Ji)'s horse, saluted with his fists, and said with a smile: "Xu Gongzi, send your relatives out of the village."

Xu Maogong (Li Ji) hugged his fists and said with a smile: "Brother Mu Jiu, it's hard work."

At the outpost next to the gate of Wagangzhai, five or six sentries ran out, ran to the gate, and opened the gate with a squeak.

Xu Maogong (Li Ji) saw: In front of the gate of Wagangzhai, the housekeeper Xu Quan was standing there, with two horses standing beside him, and the housekeeper Xu Quan was holding the reins of the two horses.

Xu Gai, Xu Maogong (Li Ji), and Xu Mouse rode out of the gate of Wagangzhai and came to the housekeeper Xu Quanquan, and the three of them jumped off the horse.

Xu Gai and housekeeper Xu Quan each took off an extra-large food box from the horse and handed it to Xu Maogong (Li Ji) and Xu Mouse.

Xu Maogong (Li Ji) and Xu Mouse took the food box and tied it to their horses.

Xu Gai said: "Son, the other box is Yiya five-flavor chicken, which doesn't like to be cold when eaten in winter."

The housekeeper Xu Quan untied a blue cloth bag from his body, handed it to Xu Mouse and said, "Xu Rat, these are the ten meat buns that the master made for you, you have to take care of the young master."

Xu Rat took the blue cloth bag with both hands and said, "Dad, I know."

Xu Gai and housekeeper Xu Quanfei got on the horse, and Xu Gai said, "Go back, we're on our way."

Xu Gai and housekeeper Xu Quan waved goodbye to Xu Maogong (Li Ji) and Xu Mouse, rode their horses and whips, and rushed to Weinan County.

Xu Mouse tied the blue cloth bag to his body, Xu Maogong (Li Ji) and Xu Mouse pulled the horse into the gate of Wagangzhai, and Mu Jiu stood next to the gate of Wagangzhai and saluted with fists.

Xu Maogong (Li Ji) returned the salute with a fist and said with a smile: "Brother Mu Jiu, after getting off the sentry tonight, please come to my room and taste the famous dishes made by my father."

Xu Mouse interjected and said, "Brother Mu Jiu, the famous dishes made by my master are particularly delicious."

Mu Jiu smiled and said, "Young Master Xu, Brother Xu Rat, I'll go after I get off the sentry."

Xu Maogong (Li Ji) said again: "Brother Mu Jiu, please come up to eat and taste with Brother Chen from the second squad of Qianzhai."

Mu Jiu replied with a smile: "Young Master Xu, the fifth brother of Chen Lao of the second squad of Qianzhai, is resting in the barracks in the backyard now, and he is on duty tonight."

Xu Maogong (Li Ji) said: "Xu Mouse, before lunch, you can send a few meat buns to the Chen brother of the second squad of Qianzhai."

After speaking, Xu Maogong (Li Ji) and Xu Rat flew on their horses and galloped towards Zhongzhai.

Three moments later, when they came to Xu Maogong (Li Ji)'s room, the two jumped off the horse, and Xu Maogong (Li Ji) and Xu Rat untied two large food boxes and carried them to the room.

Xu Maogong (Li Ji) sat at the table, opened the military book and read only two pages.

Someone knocked on the door, Xu Rat opened the door, and there was a pro-soldier standing at the door, and the pro-soldier said: "The second boss has just come back, and he has seen the big boss in the main hall, and the big boss asked the villain to invite: Xu Gongzi and Xu Rat brothers to the main hall to discuss major matters."

Xu Maogong (Li Ji) instructed: "Xu Rat, you take three meat buns, go to the barracks in the backyard, give them to the Chen brothers of the first two squads, and then rush to the main hall immediately."

Xu Mouse responded: "Yes." ”

After speaking, Xu Maogong (Li Ji) followed the soldiers and walked towards the main hall.

Xu Rat took out a piece of blue cloth, wrapped three meat buns and tied them to his body, went out of the door, ran to the backyard barracks, and inquired when he arrived at the backyard barracks: Chen Lao Wu, the second team of the front village, was in the first room of the penultimate row of houses.

Xu Mouse ran to the door of the first room in the penultimate row of houses, and shouted softly twice: "Chen Lao Wu, Chen Lao Wu." There was no response.

The squirrel opened the door, and a foul smell came to his face. Xu Mouse endured it and looked inside: there were more than 20 brothers lying in a chase shop, and I really couldn't tell which one was Chen Lao Wu.

Xu Mouse immediately closed the door and shouted loudly, "Chen Lao Wu." As soon as the words fell, I heard the sound of stepping down from the Chase shop and putting on shoes, and after a while, a middle-aged man with a black face opened the door and walked out.

The black-faced middle-aged man was wearing a belt and shouted at the Xu Mouse, "Who are you?" Yelling, don't you know that your second crooked grandfather is sleeping in it? ”

Xu Rat took a closer look, and standing in front of him was: a middle-aged man with a narrow head, picking out his eyes, and a sharp mouth.

Xu Rat asked loudly: "You are Liu Erwei??"

The middle-aged man with a black face squinted his eyes and replied, "Yes, I am your second crooked grandfather."

With a "bang", Xu Rat grabbed Liu Er's crooked chest and reprimanded loudly: "You splash, I was about to talk to you, but you actually sent it to the door yourself."

At this time, Chen Lao Wu walked out, looked at Xu Rat, and shouted loudly at the middle-aged man with a black face: "Liu Erwei, you dare to shout at Brother Xu Rat, do you want to learn from Zhang Yanei?"

The middle-aged man with a black face was so frightened that a few drops of cold sweat broke out on his sideburns, and he stammered in fright and asked, "You, are you a big hero of Xu Squirrels?" How could you, the noble foot, step on our cheap land?

Xu Rat said loudly: "Liu Erwei, if you dare to do anything wrong and bully honest people again, I will let you be like Zhang Yanei, and the back of your head will be knocked on the corner of the table."
