The shops, trades, and handicraft workshops in the city of Sijiu can be explained in one word - bitterness!

Before dawn in the morning, the little apprentice had to get up quickly to clean up the shop scene and boil water to boil porridge. When the master gets up, the hot washing water will be delivered to his eyes immediately. Waiting for the master and the master's family to finish washing, eating and drinking, this can take a time, and there is nothing left in the pot in the stove room, and it is pulled into the mouth, even if it is coaxed through the Five Organs Temple!

When you are working, it is naturally dirty and tiring, and you have to rush to get started without waiting for the master to shout. After a day of non-stop work, not to mention the little big child who is a little apprentice, even if he is a strong man, he has to be so tired that he walks and shakes!

It's easy to stay up until dark, waiting for the master to wash up and sleep, here you have to watch the fire between the stoves don't go out, and on the other hand, you have to clean up all kinds of bits and pieces, pick up the household things that Ming'er can use for work, and you have to be busy until the third watch of the day, so that you can shrink in the stove and take a nap

Just living such a day, it is lucky that the little apprentice who can survive for three years is a master. Some ruthless shops, trades, and craft workshops use all of the little apprentices who have signed a death contract for ten or twenty years, and some of them are still a lifetime deed! Even if you work in the shop, business, and craft workshop until your temples are white, you can get a few festival money during the Qingming, Dragon Boat Festival, and Spring Festival in a year, and there is no other income!

After those little apprentices gritted their teeth and saved a year's reward, they could only ask their masters and masters for a few hours to go to the street after the Spring Festival and the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and see what the streets looked like after a hundred and ten steps around their own shops in these four or nine cities. There are those who have eaten a bowl of stewed stew and a bowl of wontons on the flyover during the Chinese New Year, and they can remember that taste for the next year

Seeing a large group of little apprentices who had just changed into new clothes and copper coins in their pockets coming out of the entrance of the main gate of the fire, they ran in the direction of the overpass. And those shopkeepers and masters who understood the reason for this. Some complained in private that the rules of bringing little apprentices in the shops were broken at the entrance of the main entrance of the fire, and some were secretly wondering - should they also let their little apprentices go out to rest?

Seeing Hu Qianli carrying a blanket with the ocean on his back to pick up his daughter-in-law, who was a little out of tune, Xiang Youbao looked down at the children of the Xie Men Shen family who were clustered around him, and couldn't help but laugh and took out a handful of eldest sons from his pocket and distributed them to the children who were looking at him one by one.

After Xie Menshen's family moved into the house at the entrance of Huozhengmen Hall, several of Xie Menshen's children more or less followed those newly recruited little apprentices to practice small skills. On weekdays, I also followed the daughter-in-law of the Xie Men family to work in the stove. I have three meals a day on time, and I have a place to sleep at night, and my body bones are a lot stronger, but there are really few big children in my pocket.

According to the god of Xie Men, the children of poor families have food, clothing, and a cover to sleep at night, which is already a blessing from the accumulation of virtue in the previous life! If you really give the children pocket money again, then you will really have to get the children of poor families out of the emperor's life. It's going to be a blessing!

Holding up a piece of the ocean with a smile, Xiang Youbao smiled at the children who were holding a handful of big children: "Come, jump high with my senior brother here!" Whoever can hold this ocean from the hands of the senior brother will be able to grow tall next year, and the ocean will belong to whom! ”

was teasing a few children chirping and laughing and jumping around, and Nalan's somewhat coquettish voice came from behind Xiang Youbao: "Is there such a senior brother as you?" Holding an ocean to tease your younger brothers and sisters, you should be waiting for the monkeys to grab food on the Monkey Mountain?! ”

With a smile, he handed the ocean held high in his hand to the child who jumped the most happily, and then felt a few oceans out of his pocket. Gave a piece to the other children who had just pursed their lips, and Xiang Youbao turned his head to look at Nalan who was walking out of the gate of the main gate of the fire and smiled: "Isn't this playing with the children?" ”

Throw the braids you just recombed behind you. Nalan glanced at Youbao slightly: "What about the other children?" Just let them go like sheep to have fun? ”

Holding a few children to Nalan's side, Xiang Youbao turned his head and pouted at the street entrance in front: "How can it?" Asked the nine monkeys to lead them to the street to eat a bowl of stewed stew, last time I took this group of children to eat once, but the children of this group of gluttonous worms hooked up, today just went out to make a fuss to eat another bowl, and they went first! Let's go first. Wait for the nine monkeys to bring them over at the intersection of the flyover! ”

After glancing from a distance in the direction of the street, and seeing that the little apprentices who were shouting around the stewed stall were tossing happily, Nalan relieved himself and followed Xiangyou Leopard towards the overpass.

Speaking of the overpass realm, the men walking in the city of Sijiu. From dignitaries to peddlers and pawns, there is no one who is not happy to go shopping!

The jugglers who run the rivers and lakes 'leave the ground' in the boundary of the overpass, holding white sand and white ash to draw a circle on the ground, which is called 'painting pot' in the jargon. After painting the pot and having a field, the juggling craftsmen who run the rivers and lakes are counting on this noodle selling craft to eat.

Zhang Yushan, Zhang Baozhong, father and son, who practiced the art of drawing bows, rested on the overpass and put the field away, and the four big bows were immediately handed to the old and young masters around the field. It doesn't matter if you rely on your own strength, try to open the bow yourself, or if you are a partner of two people dragging a bow to both sides, it is rare for someone to be able to pull a bow into the shape of a full moon bow in a year.

Waiting for all the men around the field to test the things they want to play, the Zhang family father and son got started, at least two bows at the same time! There is a man with a big hand and a face who can see the doorway in his eyes and raises his hand to throw a few pieces of ocean towards the middle of the field, Zhang Baozhong thanked him head-on, and when he turned around, he could show a unique skill - one person opened four bows!

After practicing the bow, Zhang Baozhong did not grow out, his face did not change, he reached out and grabbed a two-hundred-pound Qinglong Yanyue knife next to him, and he could dance the two-hundred-pound Qinglong Yanyue knife with one hand, and finished the road of 'face flower', 'back flower' and 'cross flower' all the way. The applause around the scene can already overturn half of the flyover!

If you really want to think about it, the men who can have this arm strength on their bodies, in the early years when they can take the martial arts test, to say the least, they have to be fierce generals who can save the frightened bull, and taking the name of a martial artist is to hold the handle!

I've seen the things on the strength.,The empty bamboo next to the empty bamboo Dezi plays with a single-headed empty bamboo.。 It has already buzzed into a verdant light and shadow that is impervious to wind and rain and water cannot be splashed. Compared with the double-headed hollow bamboo played by ordinary people, the weight of the single-headed hollow bamboo is different on both sides, and it can be regarded as having a little ability to play, not to mention that it can also be played to the realm of seeing shadows and not seeing things?

The small scene is enough to see, but the flying forks that open the road on the street are even more crowds of people who hook up and rush to the front. If you bump into the scene of walking on the overpass, walk through the eighteenth road of the flying fork Tan Junchuan at the forefront, and the red paper shreds blown up by the head-on artillery battles on the street can be paved all over the street!

Looking at the heights, the most outstanding craftsmen who climb the pole have to count Zhengming! On the high pole that is erected by the wind, it doesn't matter if it is a 'handstand', a 'standing pole' or a 'wind-pulling flag' that can please the mouth. There is no one who has ever seen it who does not raise his head and applaud!

Looking at the low place, Zhang Wenzhi, who practiced five horses, lay on the ground bare-chested, covered with a large wooden board, and protected his body with a mouthful of dantian gas.

Needless to say, there is a red Luo umbrella cover on the top of the head, and a flag embroidered with a font number is hung under the umbrella, and the tall middle flag is thrown high by the Bao Sanye, and then the shoulder, elbow, head, and back of the neck socket are catched. The particular thing is that the middle flag is straight and upright, and the lines do not move. If you really bump into Bao Sanye, you will be in high interest that day. Coincidentally, he just drank a few taels of raw pulp old bubbles of burning knife and good wine, and the third master of Bao can still practice a unique skill in public - holding the lower molars to catch the middle flag pole that fell after being thrown!

Regardless of the rare scenes next to it, I will briefly list a few kinds of tricks on the overpass, which can already be seen in the four or nine cities The men who have seen it applauded and shouted dumb and sprinkled their pockets!

If you're really tired of shopping, you don't have to go far away. You can find snacks everywhere on the flyover street, and the craftsmanship is still very authentic. There is that old glutton, who eats all the way along the street of the overpass, has tasted the five flavors of sweet, sour, bitter, spicy and salty, and has not eaten for three days when he goes home - not that the food at home is not smooth, but this time he has tasted the extreme of the five flavors of the world. I really can't eat a good thing

But the ruler is long and short, the moon is full and short, and there are many people on the overpass who do these serious crafts to make a living and eat, and those characters who are on the side of the door are naturally thinking about making a fortune in this crowded territory!

Look at those crooked wearing felt hats to cover their half-pulled faces, one hand in their sleeves, and rubbing towards people when they walk aisle, there is no need to ask, it must be a stealth character, who specializes in eating slivers and diving this mouthful of food.

There is a skilled sliver diving master, walking back and forth along the overpass street, humming a little song in his mouth, and running to the patrol officer standing at the intersection of the overpass street and talking about idle words. After passing by, the heavy ocean was wrapped in a few tickets, and it just fell into the pocket of the patrol officer. The rest of the money that has just arrived, in addition to giving some individual pieces of silver to the gangster leader who poked the scene on the overpass, is enough for this sneaker to find a good restaurant to eat a few times, and then go into the Bada Hutong for a few days.

Besides, the one with a pair of sunglasses and a half-old porcelain bottle in his hand, specifically touching and hitting those honest people who looked like guests from outside, designated as a group of veterans who touched porcelain.

Between the shoulders, the two of them gently bumped their shoulders, either the pair of sunglasses on the bridge of their noses fell to the ground, or the porcelain bottle in their hands had to be safe!

When the two were arguing and calculating, a few idlers gathered around them. Under the combination of soft and hard, the outsiders who have just entered Sijiu City and want to see the lively scene on the overpass can only obediently break the fortune and eliminate the disaster

There is also the master who has lost his conscience and lacks virtue and plays with smoke and flowers, holding a handkerchief stained with sweat medicine in his hand, just waiting for the adult who took the child to the overpass to watch the scenery and see the excitement without paying attention, the handkerchief in his hand shook in front of the nose of the child, and the other hand had already slapped the child who was dizzy by the sweat medicine and squeezed into the pile.

By the time the adults who realized that the child was missing were so anxious that they jumped on the flyover street crying and shouting, looking for their own children, the bastards who were shooting flowers had already put the sweaty child into a sack and put it on a rack car and went out of the flyover street. From now on, it will be difficult for this child to see his father and mother again

In such a realm, there are many people who can do right and wrong, and there are more ears and eyes and more news, no matter whether it is black and white in Sijiu City, or the little thing in the private room of the official, within an hour, the characters who can find out the number of news will be able to inquire about it on the overpass!

It's no wonder that the men walking on the scene in Sijiu City have such a saying - those who go to the scene with one eye on the overpass are empty, and if you can still go shopping with your ears, then you are really the man who understands the number of roads on the scene!

led Nalan and a few children of the Xie Men Shen family to stand at the intersection of the flyover street, and looked at the crowded and mixed scene, and involuntarily pondered something in his head - the daughter-in-law of Hu Qianli's family, who was quite unscrupulous, actually had the ability to see the scene on the street of this flyover?

Is this reliable? (To be continued.) )
