Section 456 Return to the old business

The third volume sailed in the Ming Dynasty

At sunset, the streets of Fuzhou are relatively lively, the shops on both sides and the street vendors have not yet packed up, and some wealthy shops have hung lanterns on their eaves early, and the spots stretch out.

There are not many pedestrians on the street, but there are quite a few, Qin Haoming and Qi Wanru more than ten people came over, and the small street seemed to be a little crowded.

There is no such opportunity after being busy on weekdays, and before marriage, because of family rules, we can't see each other, and Qi Wanru has almost no chance of shopping with her husband.

At the moment, holding Ailang's arm, I was naturally happy and happy, looking at the flow of people shuttling by, I couldn't help but walk briskly, and occasionally jump, the girl's mentality was fully revealed.

There are too many constraints on women in this era, and walking on the street arm-in-arm like this is still relatively alternative in the end.

But they have a special identity, although the costumes are deliberately low-key, but the guards around them are all big men, which is enough to explain a problem.

There are plenty of snacks and small items to play with at the stalls on both sides of the street, but these are not very attractive after all.

After stopping and stopping like this for a while, Qi Wanru ran to the cloth shop not far in front, picked out some brocade, and pasted it on Qin Haoming's chest to compare.

"This color is too light, not suitable for the husband, or the red one is more handsome, this seems to be good......"

Then he took some brocades of different colors and compared them with others, Li Xiang patted his head and grinned, "And we have a share?" ”

"Of course there is, it just so happens that I will also make some female red, the clothes in the quilt factory are too monotonous, they are all military uniforms.

You fight for life and death, follow your husband all the way, you can't be stingy with a piece of clothing, not to mention that most of the time I am idle......"

Holding the brocade in her delicate hand, the woman looked at the man next to her: "What does the husband think?" ”

Qin Haoming nodded, spoiling and obeying her, there is nothing wrong with this matter, and even better to win people's hearts, a group of bachelors around him grinned, and arched their hands one by one: "Mrs. Xie!" ”

"The condition of this house is not good, let's go to the next one to see, we have to buy more, but we can't be cheated."

Qi Wanru took her husband's hand and walked out of the cloth shop quickly, and a group of people hurriedly followed.

Only the shopkeeper blinked and watched them leave, his lips trembling twice, and he muttered, "Don't buy it...... I don't buy it, I say so much about what to do, and make people happy in vain. ”

After walking around the street for a while, Qin Haoming looked at his energetic wife and said softly, "Haven't you been shopping at Xuanda before?"

"Yes......" On the bun, the steps swayed gently, Qi Wanru turned her head: "But it's rare, after all, there is nothing to go around alone." ”

"And now?"

"Now...... It's a lot of fun, and there are a lot of people together...... The most important thing is to have a husband by your side. ”

Qin Haoming laughed, stretched out his hand to let his wife pull it up, and walked to the next street, which was still lively, it was still more dignified than the previous street, with many wine shops and tea houses on both sides, and the road was spacious for people to come and go.

"Fat Eighth Master, I heard that you used to collect protection money, and there are more than a dozen splashes under your hands?"

Qin Haoming's eyes wandered around, and he asked a sturdy guard behind him.

Qi Wanru pursed her lips and snickered, holding Ai Lang tighter and tighter.

"Qin Du, it's not a fat eighth master, it's a little chubby...... Little Fat ......" In the laughter of everyone, a huge man was short, "The family is poor, there is no schooling, and there are seven brothers and sisters above......

There is no way, only one grows, and there is nothing to eat, so I have to mess with the scoundrels in the county town and collect some ...... Closing ...... Mix up food and clothing......

Later, he accepted what he shouldn't have received, offended the adults, and was imprisoned......

In the eighth year of Chongzhen, Lu Du recruited soldiers, and the small one had some prestige in prison, with heavy fists and feet, and the jailers were also afraid of me, so he later signed up for the Tianxiong Army and was exempted from punishment. ”

"Is it easy to collect protection money?"

At the beginning of the lanterns, because of the large number of workers in the Governor's Palace, there are more and more people with a few spare money in their hands, and almost every restaurant is full.

"Fortunately, as long as you make good friends with the county officials, unless the background is particularly strong, you ......"

There was some pride in the fat eighth master's voice, it seemed that he was also mixed up, and his days were very moist.

"Do you want to go back to your old business?"

"I don't want to ...... it" The fat eighth master's head shook rapidly, and his eyebrows flew and said: "Wouldn't it be nice to follow Qin Du to make meritorious contributions and be a serious wife and son?" ”

"Really, think about it again, keep your military status, the Governor's Mansion secretly supports you, in the future, Fujian and Guangdong provinces will eat all black and white, and everyone will call you the fat eighth master, wouldn't it be faster?"

Qin Haoming thought about Du Yuesheng's scenery in his mind, and his words were extremely tempting.

"That's it, that's it, the fat eighth master is majestic."

The guards coaxed one after another, and Li Xiang smiled strangely and saluted with his hands, looking nondescript.

"Why don't you cooperate with the fat eighth master, and the people in the rivers and lakes will be called Li Ye in the future?"

Qin Haoming turned his head and asked as he stared at the scar on Li Xiang's face.

The smile stopped abruptly, Li Xiang looked solemn, the scar on his face jumped a little, and he shook his head and said slowly:

"I used to, but now I can! The team is expanding, and there are all kinds of wastes waiting to be rebuilt, and the brothers can't do without me now, please ask Qin Du to find someone else. ”

His eyes were rolling wildly, and he suddenly pulled Xu Hongxuan next to him and said, "The last general recommended him, anyway, he is still a thousand households!" ”

"Get out! Don't make fun of Lao Tzu, what are you angry about? I didn't accept thousands of households for a few days that night, and I dared to say that I couldn't do without you, virtue! ”

Xu Hongxuan broke free from Li Xiang's clutches and pretended to be angry.

His identity as the director of the Nanyang Bureau is known to a limited number of people, and he is still an official position of a thousand households. Li Xiang, as Qin Haoming's side, naturally knew that this was just a joke.

"Governor Qin, if you can keep your military status, the last general is willing to try."

The fat eighth master licked his lips and looked at the streets on both sides of the flowers, as if he was moved by Qin Haoming's words and should come down.

"Okay, I've seen the fat eighth master, let's work together in the future to sweep the two provinces of Fujian and Guangdong."

Qin Haoming laughed, patted his stocky shoulder and said excitedly.

"Husband, you scared the people away."

Qi Wanru didn't know what Ai Lang had in mind, so she pointed at the passers-by who avoided them and shook his hands.

"Yes, yes......" Qin Haoming nodded like a chicken pecking rice, and said to the people who were fighting with each other: "Low-key, low-key......"

The group died down, followed Qin Haoming and his wife to continue shopping, walked to the main street, and selected fabrics to make New Year's clothes.

It's just that with Qin Haoming's fingers and pointing, the fat eighth master kept responding to the "promise" in his mouth, which is destined to make some people not stop before the year. [.]
