Chapter Twenty-Nine: Let's Go to Mingzhou Together
Cui Daoshu thought for a while, "My brothers are all pure-hearted people, and I think any of them can be worthy of the little sister." In this way, let the little sister have more contact with them, and after getting acquainted with them, let her choose her husband by herself. Tomorrow, you will take your little sister to the city to shop and play. I asked some of my brothers to accompany me. ”
The next day, at the gate of Cui's manor, six carriages lined up one after another, and the group of five arranged for Jiang Wuniang's mother and son, and sixteen children boarded the car one after another, ready to visit Mingzhou City.
Cui Daoshu led his wife, and his sister, accompanied by several guards and maids, came to everyone. He opened his mouth and said: "Brothers, Humble Jing and her sister also intend to go to Mingzhou City to relax, please go with your brothers, I hope you will take care of one or two." I still have to discuss the procurement of materials with the stewards, so I won't go. ”
Shen and Cui Xiaoniang came forward to greet everyone, and after everyone greeted each other, they boarded the car and headed for Mingzhou City.
Along the way, everyone watched the idyllic scenery of the south of the Yangtze River with great interest, and arrived at Mingzhou City after more than an hour. Entering the city gate, everyone gets off the car and walks, there are many shops and restaurants on both sides of the street, cars and horses come and go, the flow of people is like weaving, it is very prosperous and lively.
The children saw this prosperous scene, they were all excited, everyone traveled all the way, bought a lot of food and gadgets for the children, Du Dalei farts around Cui Xiaoniang and was courteous, Jiang Wuniang and Shen chatted casually, Zhao Zizhong hugged the puppy, Wei Hongye held Xing'er, Boris sat on the shoulder of a child, is the youngest boy among the children, only five years old, Du Dalei saw him thin, and named him 'Jiang Xiaoyu' with a bad taste. Na Zhe took a few strings of fish balls in his hand and chewed them, and asked Boris: "Old Bao, can you eat some, this fish ball tastes very good." ”
Behind the crowd, the wilted Hu Yidao and Tian Renfeng spoke: "I said brother, if you make a mistake in the future, you would rather be beaten than go to the small black house, that place is too terrible, it is really not a human being, I usually feel that I am very bold, but after staying there for two days, my soul is almost gone." ”
Tian Renfeng didn't believe it, and pouted: "What you said is so scary, I don't believe it, what's so terrible in a room." ”
"You haven't tasted that, I'm not lying to you. I started getting locked in, and before I felt anything, it was just a little darker. But as time went on, I became more and more afraid, because there was no sound at all, and it was pitch black in front of me, and I felt terrible in my heart. Later, I seemed to see all kinds of monsters and ghosts trying to eat me, I was so frightened that I screamed desperately, but no one paid attention to me, it was quiet, I felt that all the people, livestock, and animals in this world had disappeared, and I was the only one left in the world. I thought I was going crazy, so I slammed the door and hit the wall. But still no one cares about me. Then I didn't have the strength anymore, so I lay on the ground thinking nonsense, waking up and falling asleep for a while, and I didn't know how hungry I didn't know how long it was, and I felt like it was several years before I was released. When I came out, my pants were wet, and I didn't feel anything. ”
Tian Renfeng shivered and shrunk his neck, "Hearing you say this, it's scary enough, I have to be careful in the future, it's okay to provoke Aunt Jiang, it's a big deal to be scolded." If you mess with Mr. Du, it's over. ”
We walked through several streets and came to a place where cloth and silk were sold, and most of the shops here were selling silk, silk, linen, ready-to-wear, rouge, gouache and other things that could be used by women. A few old men were not interested, and stood idly on the side of the street.
Shen walked over and said with a smile: "Brothers, we women have to choose a lot of items, and Mrs. Jiang also has to buy some clothes for the children, so don't wait here." There is a teahouse in front, where my brother can go to rest and have some refreshments? ”
As if everyone had been pardoned, the guards took care of the children and protected a few women, and went straight to the teahouse.
Entering the teahouse, a guy greeted him, and Du Dalei shouted, "Find a quiet place, pick up the food and drink, the uncles are not short of money." ”
The guy was a little confused and didn't quite understand what he meant. Wei Hongye took out a string of money, threw it to the buddy, and asked him to arrange it. Sure enough, if you are rich, you are the uncle, and the guy took everyone up to the second floor and arranged for everyone to sit down in the adjacent window. There were not many people on the second floor, and there were two tables sitting next to them. At one table, two businessmen dressed up were talking. At the other table sat three gentlemen, whispering.
The crowd was curious about the readers of this era and wanted to hear their conversations. But no one understands the local dialect, and a few scholars speak quickly, and everyone looks at each other as if listening to a book from heaven.
Tea and snacks came, and everyone ate and drank casually and chatted. Na Zhe asked Du Dalei: "You seem to have a little interest in Cui Xiaoniang, tell everyone about it." ”
Du Dalei poured a big sip of tea, "Hehe, that chick is very good, let's talk about it and have fun." ”
Zhao Zi glared at him: "If you want to pursue her, we support you, and you won't suffer if you marry her." But if you want to bubble her, in the end, it won't work, absolutely not. Women in this age cannot be provoked casually. What's more, she is Cui Daoshu's own sister! If you want to pick up girls, there are some in the green building, whatever you want. But Cui Xiaoniang is different, she is everyone's lady, if you don't want to marry her, stay away from her. ”
Du Dalei wilted, "Get married, forget it!" There are so many beautiful girls in the green building, I haven't seen it yet. In the future, I will go to Hangzhou, Jinling, Kaifeng, and soak all the girls in the world! An entire forest cannot be given up for a single tree. ”
At this time, there was the sound of shouting and scolding from the street, mixed with the crying of children, and the hoarse shouting of women. Everyone got up and looked out the window, the three guards of the Cui family on the street were fighting with five or six people dressed as servants, Jiang Wuniang was holding a child and was beaten by two servants, Hu Yidao and Tian Renfeng were lying on the ground and squirming, it seemed that they were beaten lightly. More than a dozen children were crying on the side of the street.
Du Dalei yelled: "I'm grass, those who dare to beat us, don't want to live!" He turned and ran downstairs. Zhao Zizhong turned over and jumped from the window. The second floor of the teahouse is not very high, only five or six meters from the ground, and Zhao Zizhong rolled to the side in an instant, removing most of the impact force. Got up and rushed in the direction of the fight.
He went straight to one of the tall servants who had beaten Jiang Wuniang, suddenly jumped up while running, and slashed at the side of the man's neck with a knife, and the servant fell straight to the ground like a stake, fainting.
Zhao Zizhong turned around and kicked sideways, kicking in the lower abdomen of another servant who had beaten Jiang Wuniang. He was kicked four or five meters away and fell to the ground and kept rolling.
Zhao Zizhong held Jiang Wuniang, saw that her face was blue and purple, and hurriedly asked, "How is it, does it matter?" ”
Jiang Wuniang shook her head: "I'm fine, you go and see Hu Yidao and Tian Renfeng." ”
When the four men in the back arrived, Boris was no longer a rookie after the fierce fight on the boat, he picked up a stick from a street stall, picked it up as he ran, and struck it on the calf of a servant with his back to him. The servant staggered to the ground, and Boris continued to rush forward, and one of the Cui family guards crossed his body, and the wooden stick stabbed straight into the chest of a servant. The man fell to the ground on his back.
Boris stopped to observe the situation, and Du ran past him like a thunderstorm.
A Cui family guard was lying on the ground, and two servants were kicking him. When Du Dalei arrived, he grabbed the servant's arm, twisted his body in stride, and threw the servant to the ground with an over-the-shoulder fall. Seeing this, another servant punched Du Dalei on the right cheek, he squatted and kicked sideways, kicked on the servant's left knee, the servant knelt down, Du Dalei stepped forward and grabbed his hair bun with his left hand, and smashed his right fist on the bridge of his nose, blood burst out, and it is estimated that the bridge of the nose bone was also broken. Du Dalei exerted his left hand, pressed the man's head, and raised his eyes to look ahead.
There was only one Cui family guard and one servant left in the field fighting, and Zhao Zizhong supported Jiang Wuniang. At this time, Boris came over and raised his foot and kicked the servant in the abdomen who was pressed by Du Dalei, "You are too abrasive, go and see those two children." ”
Du Dalei was happy: "Lao Bao, you are very slippery in Northeast dialect!" Then he stood up and ran towards Hu Yidao and Tian Renfeng.
Boris knocked down the last servant with a stick and asked the Cui family guards, "Why did they beat people?" ”
The guard wiped the blood from his face, "It seems that one of our children stained their master's clothes, and the boy hit the child." A few of us and Mrs. Jiang stepped forward to push him away, and he asked the family to beat us. It's those two people. The guard pointed to two men on the side of the street.
Boris looked at the street, there were two brightly dressed guys standing on the street, one in a green robe, a little taller, only about 1.7 meters. The other was in a blue shirt and was a Humpty Dumpty.
Boris walked towards the two men, and the green-robed boy saw a tall man walking towards him, this person was a rare giant in Jiangnan, wearing a blue linen coat, a round hat, golden hair showing from his sideburns, a fair complexion, and blue eyes. Boris's huge size put a lot of pressure on him, and he secretly guessed that this man was just a Hu businessman, and there was no need to be afraid of him.
Boris was expressionless, stared at the two people and said, "Who are you?" Why hit women and children? ”
The green-robed boy looked up at Boris, he didn't understand what he said, and he was a little scared, so he said boldly: "You, a Hu businessman, dare to come to Mingzhou to spread wilderness, this son will definitely let the government arrest you in prison, so that your life is better than death." ”
Boris listened to something from the green-robed man, and he didn't understand what he meant. At this time, one of the Cui family's guards came over, "Mr. Bao, he said that he wanted the government to arrest you in prison and wanted to deal with you." ”
Boris was happy, thinking that this kid was quite horizontal, so he stretched out his left hand and grabbed the neck of the green-robed boy, and lifted him up with all his strength. The green-robed boy's face turned red in an instant, and he hurriedly broke Boris's fingers with his hand, trying to get out of his control.
