Chapter Ninety-Four: Side-Knocking

Edamame came to Ichipinsai. [0m 10,000 volumes, full text hand-typed debut] .org

"Boss Chen, I want to find a life here in Nong, come to Sanfa?"

Lao Chen was a little surprised, the edamame he knew was a little boy with low eyes and low hands, and he didn't expect him to come to work in the restaurant.

"What do you want to do?" Lao Chen asked kindly.

"You can run the hall, remove the bowls, and pick up the vegetables. I don't pick. ”

Lao Chen was full of joy when he heard it, as the saying goes, the prodigal son does not change his money, and Edamame wants to exchange for remuneration through his own labor, which is a good thing, besides, Tiger Boy is about to go to Yulin, the store is already short of manpower, and the arrival of Edamame can fill this vacancy. So Lao Chen agreed.

"Yes, I can eat and live here, and give you five oceans a month, do you think it's okay?"

"Okay, Boss Chen, Nong looks at Haole, I just need to eat, and I have to go back to the house at night to serve my father." Also, can I go home with some leftovers every night? ”

"Oh? What do you want leftovers for? Lao Chen asked curiously.

"I want to give my brother a supper."

"Okay, no problem." Lao Chen praised Edamame's filial piety and righteousness.

"What, Boss Chen, what should I do?"

"Why don't you go to the kitchen first to give the fat aunt a hand and help the fat aunt."

"Okay, uh." Edamame was full of joy.

Considering the temperament of Edamame, if he is placed in the store, he may have a conflict with the guests, or the bad habits are difficult to change, and his hands are itchy, so he can take the sheep by the hand, or go directly to the guest's pocket to explore the bag and get things, then this food is really going to be planted in the hands of Edamame, so Lao Chen plans to arrange for Edamame to go to the kitchen to wash the dishes and give it to the fat aunt. After the inspection period, arrange a run.

Edamame gladly accepted the order and went to work in the kitchen.

The fat aunt was naturally very happy to see that a boy came to help her. She was very distressed when she saw that the edamame looked like a bean sprout, so she often took care of him, and left him a bite if there was something delicious. Edamame also respects the fat aunt, and people have become a lot more diligent, always rushing to work.

As for the tiger boy, because he sympathized with Edamame's situation, he felt that he was filial and righteous, and his essence was not bad, and he found that Edamame was indeed reforming his past, and there was nothing like stealing chickens and dogs, and cheating and abduction, so he released his suspicions with this little brother, and the two called him brothers.

Lao Chen came to inform Tiger Boy and asked him to go to Yulin's light and shadow photo studio to help, and Tiger Boy happily accepted the order. Of course, this is a matter of organizational secrets, and Tiger Boy did not reveal his whereabouts to Edamame, but only said that his relatives at home were going to send him to learn a craft, and he didn't know exactly where he was. Edamame listened a little sentimental, these days, he and the tiger boy are very close to each other, suddenly the tiger boy is leaving, Edamame is a little reluctant, but there is no way, so he hid in the corner without saying a word.

Before leaving, Tiger Boy gave Edamame a suede slingshot made by himself: "Give it to you, Edamame, and teach you how to slingshot when I have time to come back later." ”

Edamame took the slingshot and hugged the tiger cub tightly.

When Shuxian returned to No. 18 Jixiangli, she happened to be moving downstairs, and several men with five big and three thick were moving some furniture and daily necessities into the east room, and Tingting was directing on the side.

"The chaise longue was placed opposite the table of the Eight Immortals, the gramophone was placed on the top of the chest of drawers, the lattice bed blanket was placed in the camphor wood box, and the cotton tire was laid on the rice bed......"

After a while, the downstairs finally stopped.

"Hey, it seems that the third master didn't come today." Shuxian looked around, but didn't see that He Sanye.

"Maybe there's some business delaying." Yu Lin looked down and said softly.

At this moment, someone knocked on the door, Tingting turned around and opened the door, a man in his thirties, wearing a top hat, stood at the door, he looked inside, and then looked up at the door number, looking at these people in front of him in surprise.

"Who are you looking for?" Tingting asked the visitor.

"Who is Nong?" The man asked rhetorically.

"I'm here uh tenant."

"Tenants? What is the morning light of the house, rent it out, eh? The man's face was full of confusion.

"It's just two days ago, how can Nong also want to rent a house?"

"I'm the landlord, and I rented out the house without my permission?"

"I don't know, anyway, I've read the deed, Waiga, I still have a rental contract." Tingting responded confidently.

Mrs. Du heard that there was some noise in the courtyard, so she hurriedly came out of the living room, opened the door, and saw the man at the door, and hurriedly came out to greet her.

"Ah, Adu, Nong is back? How can you not send me a telegram in advance, I can come to the train station to pick up Nong. Mrs. Du took Mr. Du's suitcase and carried it to the living room.

"Forget it, what to pick up, I almost don't even recognize it in my own house. How could Nong talk to himself and rent out the house? “

"Nong usually doesn't come back, I don't need to live in a big house, now the price of Shanghai is high, just rely on Nong to send back this bit of Tongdian, there is no way to live at all, the house is empty and can't produce money, it's better to rent, and you can be a little more relaxed." I've also rented the upper west wing. “

"Okay, whatever. Pour me a basin of water. As soon as Mr. Du heard this, he felt that it was reasonable, and he no longer dwelled on the matter.

"Okay, uh, I'll be right here." Mrs. Du took the washbasin to the patio to fill the water.

"This Mr. Du is very familiar, but I can't remember where I have seen it." Yu Lin frowned, his fingers tapped his forehead, searching hard in his mind, and suddenly he patted his forehead, and his eyes lit up: "I remember, he is Du Xueqian, my classmate at the Whampoa Military Academy." “

Hearing Yu Lin say this, Shuxian was surprised: "Yu Lin, what did you say?" Mr. Du is a classmate in your military academy? So what to do? Will he recognize you? ”

"I don't know, we haven't seen each other for more than ten years, when we were in Guangzhou Huangpu Military Academy, we were classmates, a year later, originally I, Brother Tan, and Du Xueqian had several classmates to go to Nanjing to continue their studies together, but his father came to the school once, Du Xueqian dropped out, and then there has been no news. After all these years, I don't know what he's doing now. ”

"And if he recognizes you, will he know who you are? After all, your name is Ouyang Rui now, not Lu Yulin. ”

"I can prevaricate about this, I'm a journalist, so it's not surprising that I have a pen name. I'm afraid that he won't know that I'm wanted by Sato, he is from Pudong, Shanghai, and if I don't go to Guangzhou, I shouldn't know too much. ”

"What then?" Shuxian pinched the sweat for Yulin.

"Why don't I take the initiative to recognize him, and then find out the truth?"

"This is too risky, we still don't know if this surnamed Du is a Japanese spy, or a pseudo-spy of Wang, or a member of the military command, you rashly recognize him, this is too dangerous, it is better for me to investigate from the side first, understand the situation from Mrs. Du, and then make a judgment."

"That's fine." Yu Lin nodded, Shuxian's idea was more safe.

"I don't think you should go back to Jixiangli these days, you go to the photo studio to live. It's safer that way. ”

"It's okay, I'm just getting the photo studio in order, and there's also the newspaper office, and I'm going to work at the "Declaration" tomorrow. Tiger Boy just came over today, and there are some things that need to be explained to him, and by the way, teach him how to take photos. ”

"Yulin, you go and go about your business. I'll leave it to me first, and I'll let you know as soon as there's a situation. ”

Yu Lin nodded.

In the afternoon, while everyone was on a lunch break, Yulin quietly left No. 18 Jixiangli.

At about four o'clock in the afternoon, Shuxian came to the market, bought four hairy crabs, and knocked on the door of Mrs. Du's house.

"Ah, it's Mrs. Ouyang, come in, come in."

"Mrs. Du, I bought a few hairy crabs this morning, Mr. Allah said that he was going to come back for dinner, but there was something in the newspaper office temporarily, don't come back to eat, I will eat Bete even if I have a karma, so I will give some to Nong. There are a lot of hairy crabs and crab roes in June, and they are quite good when they are eaten with noodles and crabs. ”

"Ah, Mrs. Ouyang, how can Nong be polite, Nong has left it for his own food." Mrs. Du was a little embarrassed to see Shuxian so polite.

"A little, not too much, I heard that Mr. Du is back, just that one person and two of them."

"Oh, Mrs. Ouyang, Nong Zhen is thinking about Zhou Coming. Come in and sit down for a while, I just cooked some red bean longan soup, and I will serve a bowl of rice for Nong. ”

Mrs. Du hurriedly served a bowl of red bean longan soup and brought it to Shuxian. Shuxian gently scooped a spoonful and put it in her mouth.

"Well, old Xiang, did Nong put sugar osmanthus?"

"Uh, Mrs. Ouyang, Nong ate it as soon as he got the rice road, it's delicious?"

"It's delicious, it's delicious, it's good to be a man."

"Eat more if it's delicious, and I'll serve another bowl to Nong."

Shuxian hurriedly covered the bowl with her hand: "Don't ask for it, don't ask for it, you can't eat too much if it's delicious, wait for Mr. Xena to eat it all for me." “

"What is in the pot, I have already kept a copy of Yi."

"Mr. Du is not in the house today?"

"As soon as I had lunch, I went out."

"Mr. Du just came back and went out again?"

"yes, yes, my ass went out again before it was hot." When Mrs. Du said this, her face was full of resentment.

"Mr. Du is quite busy, going south and north."

"It's just two places in northern Jiangsu and Chongqing, and Yi won't go to other places."

"Mr. Du is from Chongqing?"

"No, I'm from Pudong."

"Oh, Mr. Du is from Pudong, Pudong people pay attention to pleasing ladies and begging big ladies uh, Mrs. Du looks much younger than Mr. Du."

Mrs. Du blushed and said in a low voice: "Yi has a big lady, but like a woman, she is not worthy of being a lady at all, she is simply a female tiger." “

Mrs. Du saw Shuxian's ignorant face, and hurriedly explained: "Mrs. Ouyang, I feel like a sister with Nong, so I don't hide it from Nong, Mr. Alla Xiao Chenguang ordered a doll kiss, Yi Bei agreed, so he slipped to Guangzhou to go to a military school, and then Yi Ye ran to Guangzhou, dragged Yi back, and married a big lady, a big lady came with a stick, the fierce is fierce, scolded Sanmen every day, Mr. Alla couldn't bear it, so he ran out, I and Yi met in Suzhou Hanshan Temple, Ala Niang took me to worship incense and ask for a sign, I want to test my marriage, Nong talked about skill, Mr. Allah also came to ask for a sign, but the abbot in the temple put the two Ala signs together, Yi said, Allah and the two people are in the previous life, and they called Allah to cherish the fate, so Mr. Allah hid the house and married me in Shanghai. “

"Oh, it turns out that Ge Neng looks like, it seems that Nong and Mr. Du are destined for three lives." Shuxian nodded with a smile.

"However, Nong doesn't know how fierce the Pudong lady is, and I don't know where Yi found out about the place where Allah lives, and brought a group of people to the door to make trouble and arrested Mr. Allah. But to be honest, Mr. Allah still has a conscience, uh, and feels sorry for me, so he handed me the deed of house No. 18 here uh, which can be regarded as compensation for me. ”

"Well, what about later?" Shuxian asked curiously.

"Later, I heard that the female tiger was sick and died. Mr. Allah is finally relieved. Mrs. Du had a relieved smile on her face.

"Those two people finally came to a hard time, and they finally squatted together." Shuxian patted Mrs. Du's hand.

"Alas, how can I say it, a female tiger is a broom star, Mr. Alla's house has always had banknotes, it is to open a soy sauce factory, and then after begging this female tiger, the business is getting worse and worse, and then the house is broken, and the banknotes are rolled up to the female tiger's mother's house. Mr. Allah had no choice but to sell his ancestral home. ”

"What can I do later? Can't you always rely on selling property to make a living? “
