Chapter 197: Chase Inn

Chen Rong was still a little strange, and asked Sun Dan why he moved out to live, was it not good at home, and why did he spend that unjust money?

Sun Dan smiled bitterly and spread his hands, "You have also seen that as long as I am at home, I am a constant visitor, how can I study quietly?" "In the past few days, not only Sun Fu and Yang Shen have sent people to invite them to come over to speak, but there are also many scholars in the capital who have come to ask for advice.

Sun Dan is now vaguely the head of the scholars in the capital, and the eight-strand articles he wrote before have become a must-read model for scholars before the exam, and people continue to come to ask Sun Dan to help read the manuscript and make friends.

Of course, in addition to the scholars, there were also many non-Shilin people who came to disturb them during this period. For example, the bookseller, since the book he copied "Eat the Disease Eaten Back" was regarded by the emperor as a health secret book, almost all the eunuchs and ladies in the palace copied a copy of it by hand and carefully studied it. Somehow, this fragment actually flowed out of the palace, and for a while, this book was expensive in Luoyang, and it was kept being copied. So, a shrewd bookseller came to the door, hoping that Sun Dan would be able to finish the book.

What kind of "color" this book is, only Sun Dan himself knows. That is, the pseudo-science used to fool the emperor, it is not elegant, and it is impossible for him to continue writing.

Not only that, because this book was all the rage, the people in the capital rushed mung beans, and the price of mung beans also rose three times a day. Even the people from the Lu family money village came to the door to complain that mung beans were out of stock, which made them extremely stressed. and asked Sun Dan if he could write another health book to promote lotus seeds, and there were still more than 100 stone lotus seeds in the warehouse that had not been sold. Looking at this year's climate, the harvest of Huguang lotus rice is a foregone conclusion, so don't be pressed in the warehouse and can't sell it.

There were many miscellaneous things, and many troublesome things really caught Sun Dan off guard. I can't afford to provoke it, so I can only hide.

Chen Rong: "But too, don't talk about you, even I have been noisy with you these days." ”

"What about the inn you're talking about?"

"Mr. Jingyuan, that place is called Datong Inn, and there have been a lot of readers preparing for exams recently, and the boss knows that readers like to be quiet, so they don't let people live in too much."

"Alright, let's go in and stay. By the way, Shuzhi, don't call me by my real name after I go, so as not to cause trouble. ”

"Yes, it should be." Chen Rong suddenly realized, with Sun Dan's fame, if he really reported his real name, there were all scholars living in the inn, but he was afraid that he would really be stepped on the threshold.

"My surname is still Sun, so call me Sun Ming in the future."

The owner of the Datong Inn is a native of Tongzhou, used to be a grain merchant, made a small fortune by relying on the Grand Canal, ended the business at hand five years ago, bought a piece of land in the capital, built a house, and after starting the house, he found that there was no good business to do, so he made this house into a good small hotel.

Because the house has just been repaired for a few years, it looks very new and clean, unlike some inns, because of the sanitary facilities, it is so dirty that it can't live in people.

The boss saw that there were two scholars, and he hurriedly welcomed Sun Dan and Chen Rong in, and said: "The two gentlemen can rest assured that they will live in the small shop, the villain only accepts Xiucai and Juzi who come to take the exam, and no one else is allowed to come in, and it is very quiet." I don't know where the two masters are from, are they here to take the current branch township exam or next year's exam? It's also the luck of the two of you, there are just two rooms left in the shop, and if you are two days late, I'm afraid you won't be able to vacate it. ”

Indeed, as the boss said, there are really a lot of people living in the Chase Inn, and there are constantly scholars in Tsing Yi and robes walking around, and the sound of reading aloud is also in their ears: "Today, there are so many Zhaozhao, and it is infinite, the sun, moon and stars are ......."

Hearing the sound of reading, Chen Rong closed his eyes slightly and took a deep breath, "The fragrance of books is overflowing, it's so good!" ”

But when he took this breath, he inhaled a big mouthful of "Sao" and almost choked him to cough.

But it turned out that there was also a small livestock shed in the yard, in which a donkey was tied and several goats were tied, which looked very eye-catching in the neat yard.

The boss was a little embarrassed and explained that this was a gentleman who studied all day long and needed to be nourished. This study costs the brain, you have to eat meat, if it becomes a green vegetable tofu, but the brain is not bright.

As soon as Sun Dan saw the small courtyard and blue-tiled house of Datong Inn, he was overjoyed. The owner of this Datong inn seemed to be a shrewd person, so he said: "We are from Shuntianfu, and we are here to participate in this year's autumn festival, and it is estimated that we will live here for a while, and if we really win, we don't need to go home, and then take the exam." So saying, he threw a dime of silver over.

I heard that it was a long-term stay, and the boss's attitude was even more respectful, and he hurriedly pointed to the two rooms next to each other and said: "It turned out to be Master Xiucai, these two rooms are our upper rooms here, and they are clean......

was about to continue to brag, but he heard an old man's weak scolding voice at the door of the backyard: "Nannan, according to me, your heart is also higher, you and I live well in my hometown, why do you want to come to the capital." People are cheap and live here, and they have to spend money when they open their eyes, hey, where is it good to be at home. As he spoke, the old man coughed and listened as if he were sick.

"Dad, isn't there another saying: people don't go out and it's not expensive. What's good at home, guarding two thatched houses, turnips, cabbage, cabbage, turnips, and turnips, and for a month, there is not a single oil star in the bowl. When I came back to the capital, I was an eye-opener, and I didn't want to go back to my hometown. If you want to go back, Daddy, just go by yourself. ”

It's a woman's voice, it doesn't sound very old, and it speaks quickly and quickly, which is obviously a noisy "sex".

The old man who spoke earlier was probably her father, and when he heard his daughter say this, he sighed: "Nannan, what are you talking about?" I am just such a daughter as you, you let me go home by myself, and leave you a weak woman in this crowded place in the capital. However, I stay in the inn like this, and the little money I have in hand can't last a few days, so do I still go to the street to beg? ”

Before he finished speaking, he heard a crisp sound. Listening to the voice, it seemed that someone had thrown the wooden basin in the inn to the ground, and the woman's sharp voice rang out: "Qian Qian Qian, Dad, why is your vision so low, you only see money in your eyes." Childe said that he would help us, just wait a few more days. ”

"Childe, what childe, whatever, I think he is an unreliable prodigal, coax you to be happy."

"What makes me happy, when we came to the capital from Gaotang, the expenses along the way were not from others, I don't think Gongzi is an ordinary person."

"Extraordinary, the master is naturally extraordinary, but can people look down on you, wake up!" In a hurry, the old man's cough became louder.

The woman screamed again: "Dad, how can you say that? ”

"I'll say it, I'll say it!"

So, the father and daughter, who said that they were stiff, began to quarrel. These two people are both from the market, and they spoke normally at the beginning, but when they quarreled and became emotional, it was difficult to sound when they spoke, and they were mixed with the sound of reading, which was quite indecent.

Chen Rong was very angry and glared at the boss: "Boss, this is what you call a clean place?" ”

The boss's face changed drastically, and he apologized again and again: "Two gentlemen, this incident is purely accidental. ”

"What happened?" Sun Dan was curious, so he asked.

The boss stomped his foot hard and said, "I'm unlucky, let's tell the two gentlemen the truth." The reason why this father and daughter stayed in my inn was not only the two of them, but also a lifting master, and the room money was also paid by the lifting master. ”

"Lift people?" Sun Dan was a little surprised.

Boss: "Yes, our store has only received scholars recently, and when I saw a lifter, I thought that the father and daughter were his family members, and I didn't suspect him, so I arranged for them to stay." But the man disappeared after staying for one night, and threw the father and daughter here, and it was half a month in a flash. Seeing that their house money has been used up, the old man has not yet come. Hey, this father and daughter have a big quarrel for three days and a small quarrel for two days, which has ruined a lot of business for the villain. But they paid for the house in advance, but it was not good to drive them away. If it weren't for that, there would be no occupancy in these two rooms. The two masters went to visit, which inn in the capital is not overcrowded today......"

Sun Dan glanced at Chen Rong: "How?" ”

Chen Rong was furious: "Forget it, let's live in another place, it's a big deal to find another temple or Taoist temple or something." ”

"Yes." Sun Dan nodded, it doesn't matter if you live here, it's not interesting to hear people quarrel all day long. He came out to be pure, to prepare for the exam quietly, and to look at the situation in front of him, which was no better than at home.

Seeing that Sun Dan and the others were leaving, the boss was in a hurry, gritted his teeth, and stopped Sun Dan and Chen Rong: "Two gentlemen, wait a while, the villain is not big enough to drive their father and daughter out." Their rent is two days away, and at most I'll refund them for those two days. ”

"Isn't it?" Sun Dan frowned slightly.

"Wait." The boss ran to the place where the father and daughter were talking, and yelled at the house: "Noisy and noisy, my business here is about to be ruined by you, I won't do your business, we won't wait." Do you know who lives here, either Xiucai or the master, you are arguing here, and you are not afraid of offending the masters? Without further ado, pack up your stuff and roll the calves for me right away. ”

The noise in the house stopped.

Door "Squeak!" With a bang, a girl about sixteen or seventeen years old opened the door, revealing half of her pretty face: "It turned out to be the boss, why are you so angry." Our father and daughter are talking about something, and I ask you to forgive me if the voice is louder! ”

The woman's voice was very fast, but as she spoke, her eyes kept rolling, obviously a very clever little girl.

"Go, go, stop talking nonsense, pack up and leave immediately."

The woman suddenly sneered, she had a pair of single eyelids, and when she spoke, she looked a little mean: "Why, our lease period has not yet arrived, so we have to let our father and daughter move out, I'm afraid that it won't be in accordance with the rules, right?" When the gentleman comes back, I will ask the gentleman to ask you for an explanation. ”

"Sir, Mr. Ping doesn't know where to hide." The boss was very angry and sneered loudly: "In recent years, I have seen a lot of prodigal children, and I have been deceived carefully." ”

Sun Dan listened to it funny, and it is estimated that this is another Ming Dynasty version of an infatuated woman with a negative heart. He turned to Chen Rong and said, "Forget it, Shuzhi, let's change places......

Just as he was about to leave, his body froze, and it turned out that the woman let out a scream: "Nonsense, Mr. Akiri is not that kind of person!" ”

Sun took a breath of cold air, stood still, and turned to walk towards the woman.

The boss was still yelling: "What is not that kind of person, what kind of person is not there these days." People are old men, they can only look down on you, a wild girl in the countryside, dream, do you still want to be a lady...... Yes! ”

A loud slap sounded, and the boss covered his face in a daze, looking at the woman in surprise.

The girl's face was flushed with anger, she put down her palm that was raised in the air, spit it, and scolded: "The dog can't spit out ivory from its mouth, this girl is innocent, and she was so humiliated by you, we are not done with this matter." ”

The boss clenched his fists fiercely: "Okay, you wait, I'll call someone ......"

"What's your name, there are still two days before our rent is due, as long as you dare to drive us, we will see you in court."

"You ......" the boss roared angrily: "We are not afraid of you when we go to court, you think this is your Shandong, Lao Tzu has to give you something powerful today." With that, he lifted his palm and was about to draw it towards the girl's face.

As soon as the hand was in mid-air, it was grabbed by a hand.

This stop, like iron tongs, pinched the bones in his wrists "creaked".

The boss screamed in pain, and turned his head to look, but it turned out to be Sun Dan.

Sun Dan has been practicing the whole Fa taught by Feng Zhen for almost a year, and his body is getting stronger and stronger, and his strength is much greater. Ordinary people can't stand this catch.

Sun Dan smiled: "Boss, what kind of anger do you make with a woman, it's not easy to go out, just let their father and daughter live?" ”

The boss looked at the woman hatefully: "For Mr. Sun's sake, I will let you stay for two more days." Hmph, when the time comes, if your Mr. Ping hasn't come back, don't blame me for being unceremoniously driving you out into the street. ”

The woman was not afraid, and looked back at the boss: "Mr. Ping is a humble gentleman, and he will naturally come back if he promises a thousand gold, and it is impossible to watch our father and daughter fall into disconnection." Speaking of Mr. Ping, the woman's face was slightly red, and there was a sweet smile on the corner of her mouth.

Sun Dan's heart moved: It seems that this little girl is in love with Ping Qiuli.

He looked the woman up and down, and praised it in his heart. This woman has dark skin, but she has a good figure, and although the single eyelid makes a pair of eyes look a little puffy, don't turn them over one by one. In this flat autumn, I really have a bit of vision!

However, this person has always prided himself on being a celebrity, how could he do such a thing that began to be "chaotic" and finally abandoned, and he could do it with such a young girl. Afterwards, such a mess was put up and not cleaned up.

If you see him in the future, you must be ashamed of this beast.

Sun Dan has a long-standing grudge against Heping Qiuli, and it can be said that his hatred is as deep as the sea. Sun Dan still admires Ping Qiuli's ability, this guy can be literate and martial, and he is an incredible character. Now, Jiajing has ascended the throne, and King Jianghua has also been robbed of the title and is under the care of the Zongren Mansion. It can be said that the Qingzhou forces have been swept away. It can be said that Pingqiu is also down. It stands to reason that he should disappear in the capital, but he doesn't want to make such an affair here.

Sun Dan smiled and let go of the boss's hand: "Boss, you go, we live here." Sun Dan wondered in his heart, why didn't he leave the capital in this Pingqiu?

The boss saw that Sun Dan and they agreed to stay, so he went down to arrange for Sun Dan.

"Thank you." The little woman named Nan Nan was slightly blessed and thanked Sun Dan. When he saluted, his eyes were still rolling rapidly, and he secretly glanced at Sun Dan.

Sun said lightly: "No thanks, let me ask you, is the Mr. Ping you are talking about called Ping Qiuli?" ”

Nan Nan was very surprised: "Yes, sir, do you know Mr. Ping too?" ”

Sun Dan smiled bitterly: "Of course I know, old friend." He changed to a Shandong accent and said, "When I met Brother Qiuli, I didn't have you?" ”

Hearing Sun Dan's accent, Nan Nan was pleasantly surprised: "It turned out to be a fellow villager in Shandong, no wonder, Qiuli is from Shandong, and my father and daughter are from the Tang Dynasty, I don't know where Mr. is?" ”

Sun Dan: "I am from Zouping, and I am a classmate of Pingqiuli." By the way, your father and daughter are not in Shandong, what are you doing in the capital? As he spoke, he pointed to the door: "It's your father inside." ”

Nannan: "It's really my father, by the way, you were called in the autumn?" Without waiting for Sun Dan to answer, she turned her head and shouted to the house: "Dad, look what I said." I just said that Mr. Ping won't leave us here, so don't you call someone over?

The old man's hoarse cough came from inside: "It turned out to be Mr. Ping's classmate, Nannan, why don't you invite the guests to come in and sit?" ”

Nannan: "Mr. Sun, please come in." ”

"Okay, come on." Sun Dan turned his head to Chen Rong and said, "You go to my house first and tell my lady the address, and then call Feng Zhen over and let him live in this inn as well." "I can't figure out that Pingqiu will come back to this inn in the past few days, that guy is a master. Although Sun Dan didn't think that the shrewd people here would openly commit murder in the inn in Pingqiu, but people are the most difficult to say, and there are still people who are mad. Pingqiuli was hit so hard that it was possible to become a madman. Otherwise, it is impossible to deceive the feelings of the woman when the big carrot is a big carrot, this is his style of doing things.

I guess there are other reasons, it's not as simple as it seems.

However, it was safer to call Feng Zhen over for personal protection.

Chen Rong answered and left by himself.

Sun Dan was stepping into the house.

There was no light inside, and the curtains and curtains were drawn, which was a little dark.

An old man with gray hair was lying on the kang by the window in the room, and when he saw Sun Dan entering the house, he sat up with his spirits up.

He was covered with sweat, his face was as red as pig's liver, he arched his hand, and said to his daughter with a pant: "Nannan, this day is so hot that people panic, is there any mung bean soup, bring a bowl to the guests to cool off." ”

Nan Nan snorted: "Dad, we've all eaten porridge for a few days, where can I find mung bean soup?" Your old man probably doesn't know what the mung beans in the capital are now expensive, and one bucket of mung beans can be exchanged for ten buckets of good rice. ”

The old man was taken aback, "I knew that we would bring some mung beans when we came to the capital." ”
