Chapter Twenty-Eight: See the Mysterious Man Again
Li Biao followed the shopkeeper Wang to the teahouse, and he was thinking in his heart along the way, what is the daughter-in-law that his grandfather told his brother looks like? Maybe it's also a practicing family, his grandfather has been cautious in his words and deeds all his life, and in his grandfather's field of vision, the people who can be friends with him and say some heart-wrenching words should be people in the martial arts. After the eyes of grandpa, the martial arts must not be bad. While thinking, he carried the burden and followed the shopkeeper Wang to the teahouse.
"Shopkeeper, you're back! A guest officer was looking for you just now. The shopkeeper greeted him and pointed to a middle-aged man in a black robe and a top hat by the window on the street and said to the shopkeeper Wang.
The king's shopkeeper only glanced at him, and did not greet him, but replied, "I know! ”
He still led Li Biao towards the backstage.
Li Biao followed the past, and he wondered in his heart, also out of curiosity, he thought, the shopkeeper dared to snub the customer? It's really not common, so I sneak a look. But this aim was not tight, which made Li Biao's heart shocked! - Isn't this the big brother of the Red Army who took him to visit Shangyi Temple at night some time ago? I haven't seen him for some days, except for the beard on his face, he is still the same, and he hasn't changed at all!
The man seemed to be leisurely sipping tea, but his eyes were very alert to the movements in the teahouse, and Li Biao didn't dare to look at it again.
He thought of the trip to Shangyi Temple a few years ago, although his whereabouts were not revealed, but it still aroused Xiao Jiayu's suspicions.
That night, after he quietly put down the two sentry posts, he was squatting outside, and it was a little more than a quarter of an hour without admitting it, and a light flashed at the bridge in the distance, coming from far and near, and there was a wild dog next to the Shangyi Temple that barked wildly.
And, as the light approached, Li Biao had already heard their voices.
"Mr. Xiao Tuan, this old lady was arrested by the surname Luo, we can't afford to that idle ......"
The voice came more and more clearly, and Li Biao's nervousness at that time was indescribable. He was still secretly angry in his heart, and if the second brother didn't come out again, he would have to kill the killer. It's just that there are a lot of them, and he has clearly seen that they are eleven people in a group, all of whom are carrying spears, and if they really want to make a move, even if the sneak attack is successful, they may not be able to gain the upper hand.
And the most important thing is that it doesn't matter if you suffer a little loss, the key is that the second brother can't get out, and his whereabouts will be exposed, and his grandparents will be affected. That's a big family, those white dogs have always been ruthless and kill people without blinking.
Seeing that the group surnamed Xiao was getting closer and closer, he was about to rush forward to make a move. But seeing two black shadows flashing out in the courtyard, and then there was a dull quail cry, Li Biao mentioned that the heart of the throat was finally put down, this was the code they agreed on in advance, the second brother, they succeeded, and they only needed to go to the city to meet according to the plan......
Now that I think about it, I still feel hanging! The day after this incident, Xiao Jiayu sent his confidant Liu Changqi to Zhouxia with a platoon of regiments to arrest them.
The boy was also disgusted, saying that he had pus on the top of his head and sores under his feet. Moreover, he was the one who spoke to Xiao Jiayu under the light that night.
This old dog, Xu saw the two sentry posts at the door who were accused of being put down, and he suspected Li Di and his brothers. Akari said that he was asking the brothers to do some kind of group training for him, but in fact, he wanted to take the opportunity to catch Ding.
Seeing this posture, Li Yuanhai certainly understood their intentions for this trip, so he stabilized the surname Liu, while letting Li Biao's mother run to find Luo Pusheng, telling him that someone was going to bully his nephew, and begging him to come forward to stop it.
When Luo Pusheng heard this, he was very angry at that time, because he and Xiao Jiayu had always been at odds with each other. Isn't it against the sky that he dared to touch his relatives at this time? In order to fight for evil, Luo Pusheng immediately sent his confidant Li Xuzhu with a reinforced platoon of men and horses to protect him.
How dare Xiao Jiayu's group members make a mistake, and the matter of arresting Ding will be over. He thinks about it now, Ropson can take care of this matter, and one is related; The two may be intrigued, and the side of the couch will not allow others to snore!
At that time, there were quite a lot of people drinking tea in teahouses. Some people laugh loudly, some whisper, some make generous statements, and the whole teahouse is actually a lively gossip center. The big guy is also blushing and thick-necked when arguing, but he has also been repeatedly reminded by the little two who add tea.
The shopkeeper poured water while smiling at the wall next to the counter. They didn't say anything, but as soon as the people who were arguing saw the sticker on the wall: Friendly reminder! Don't talk about state affairs! They all sighed.
Li Biao looked at this lively scene, and followed the shopkeeper Wang into the backstage with anxiety. It was a courtyard several feet square, surrounded by a six-foot high wall, and under the osmanthus tree by the wall sat a beautiful little girl who was picking beans.
Li Biao happened to look at him when he looked over, and inadvertently, the faces of the two of them turned red in an instant. He quickly looked behind him again, and slipped through a few side rooms, which may be the quarters of the guys. The king's shopkeeper led the way until he was at the edge of the wing.
The shopkeeper Wang turned around and asked Li Biao with a smile, "The shopkeeper is young, is this weighing using yours or a small shop?" ”
"Casual ...... ......". Li Biao was worried, he was still blushing and heartbeat because of the look at the little woman just now.
Shopkeeper Wang didn't notice any change in Li Biao, he took out the big scale and beckoned to the cabinet, "Man, come in and help!" ”
"Okay......" The shopkeeper came in in response, and lifted the scale together with Li Biao, who was still cramped.
"Thirty-nine pounds, nine taels and five dollars, it's forty!" The king's shopkeeper sang.
Li Biao agreed repeatedly, "Okay, good, it's all up to the king's shopkeeper to take care of it." ”
He didn't even look at the scales and was busy counting the money, "One catty fifty wen, ten catties five hundred wen, four five twenty, exactly two thousand!" ”
The shopkeeper said, "There are so many, there may not be enough copper on the counter, do you think it can be folded into two oceans?" ”
"That's a good idea!" Li Biao said busily.
The shopkeeper Wang saw that Li Biao was very bold and temperamental, so he ordered at the counter: "Man, lead this young shopkeeper to the front desk to drink tea,—— and order steamed noodles on the counter!" ”
Then he faced Li Biao again and said, "I'll go get the money!" ”
At this time, the shopkeeper who was carrying the scale with Li Biao whispered in the shopkeeper's ear, "The guest officer who came to you just now asked if we sell cigarettes?" I replied, "Then I have to ask the shopkeeper!" But as soon as I finished speaking, he left the tea money and left......"
Shopkeeper Wang looked at this clever fellow, nodded approvingly, and said, "It's okay! Just keep the money, and we won't do loss-making transactions. ”
Li Biao was a little embarrassed, after all, he was just a door-to-door delivery customer, how could he trouble others to catch up with the meal. Moreover, the little woman in the backyard always looked at herself, intentionally or unintentionally, which made him embarrassed, and he said to the shopkeeper of the king: "Shopkeeper Wang, it won't take long for you to withdraw the money...... I'll just wait here! - Mom and Dad are still counting on me to come back early! ”
The shopkeeper Wang was secretly happy in his heart, and he said to Li Biao: "Go to the counter to eat a snack, it is given for free, and it won't cost a few coppers." You have a few silver dollars saved,—— you are really a master who bears dung and doesn't know how to steal dung and eat! ”
Li Biao was even more red at what he said, rubbing his two hands crampedly on his chest, not knowing what to say.
The shopkeeper Wang laughed and said: "It's free, I'm fulfilling the promise of 'hot tea tube is enough, hot rice is enough'!" ”
Li Biao didn't insist anymore, just smiled awkwardly, and followed the guy out of the front desk and found a secluded place to sit under their guidance.
The guy was busy serving tea.
Li Biao looked around, but the beard he saw just now was gone. I only heard the tea guests talking about the past and the present, and they were so lively and laughing.
"Friendly reminder, don't talk about state affairs! - Isn't it just the shopkeeper reminding him not to talk about state affairs! There was a good thing in the teahouse, and the tea guest pointed to the sign on the wall, as if Columbus had discovered the New World of America, and laughed.
Everyone looked at each other, and someone exclaimed, "Oops! That's really the case. ”
"Yes, yes, yes......" The tea guests are also echoing.
"The shopkeeper's name is Wang Youqing! Affection is friendship, affectionate prompt, that is, shopkeeper prompt! Makes sense! Makes sense! An old tea guest with a white beard who looked like an old master chewed the words and shook his head.
At this time, the shopkeeper Wang was walking out of the backstage, and when he heard this, he clasped his fists and said, "Everyone, laugh! Laugh at you! ”
As he spoke, he walked straight to Li Biao, "This is the payment, please take it!" - Does the steamed powder suit your taste? ”
Li Biao took the silver and thanked him repeatedly!
The shopkeeper Wang sent out of the store, "It's good to go with less shopkeepers!" - In the future, if there is any goods, please send them! If I'm not there, you can hand it over to the guys and settle the bill with me on the raft by the river. - I'm still putting it on the line. If you don't have any goods, you will come to the store to drink tea, and you will definitely be treated! ”
Li Biao thanked him again and left, he walked on the way home in a dull way, he was secretly glad to meet such a good customer; also wondered about the boldness of the king's shopkeeper, and fought for the slightest bit of business, not only did he not deduct it, but he added it, and he also took tea and dinner for nothing. And then the big brother of the Red Army was obviously looking for him, but he ran away again without talking? and the little girl in the yard, who doesn't look small...... All kinds of mysteries made him confused. The whole thing is an endless stream of thoughts.
