Stretching out a pair of hands and rubbing his cheeks vigorously, Xiang Youbao grinned and moved his sore cheeks, while muttering indistinctly: "Today, I can be regarded as having finished saying all the auspicious words that I should say in this life!" I can't even tell it's my own! ”

also rubbed a pair of slaps that were strangled red by the fine hemp rope, and the nine monkeys who followed Xiangyou Leopard looked up at Xiang Youbao, chewing sugar cubes in their mouths, and also responded vaguely: "Senior brother, you can be content!" Today, the generation of the master sitting in the main gate of the fire will leave the old man Hong to accompany the head of the hall to receive the guests who come to pay New Year's greetings, and then my second uncle has to avoid some scenes and can't show his face, and the rest of the people are all scattered out to give New Year's greetings! We are the lightest along the way, only fifteen."

Hanging down a pair of slaps, Xiang Youbao still grinned at the nine monkeys who didn't care: "It's only fifteen?!" My poor cheek raiser, if I come to such a fifteen houses again tomorrow, it is estimated that I will not be fragrant to eat, if it is left outside the gate, I will follow the master to go along the Tunzi for a while, even if it is to worship the New Year! But there are too many people in these four or nine cities."

Hehe smiled evilly, and the nine monkeys stretched out their hands and handed over a candy cube to Xiang Youbao: "Senior brother, you eat a piece of candy and have a sweet mouth, so that you don't have to go back to the hall and see the characters who came to pay New Year's greetings, and then you can't say a nice auspicious word!" But I have to say this again, but after listening to it in Sijiu City, it is estimated that there are really few businesses that can make our fire main gate like this, and the scene of visiting customers can be from the first row to the fourth day of the new year! ”

took the candy cube handed by the nine monkeys and threw it into his mouth, Xiang Youbao looked at the nine monkeys' new cotton robes that were a little bulging, and smiled at the nine monkeys with a bit of a joke: "My nine monkeys." Your New Year's greeting work has not been in vain? Although the dim sum in my hand is really a bit heavy, the red envelopes for the New Year that people reward are not light, right? ”

Hehe smiled, the nine monkeys reached out and patted the place where the boss was bulging on the cotton robe, and smiled very proudly and said to Xiang Youbao: "This is not thanks to your blessing, senior brother, isn't it?" I said, Senior Brother, in this big New Year's Day, you have lost our little brothers who are apprentices. I've all taken red envelopes and gadgets and rewarded them, but haven't you prepared any New Year's gifts for my sister-in-law? ”

Calling the Nine Monkeys like this, there is a leopard who is quite a bit unable to grasp the appearance, involuntarily slowed down, and shouted at the Nine Monkeys who were squeezing their eyebrows beside him: "Hey, I said Nine Monkeys, you are not very old, but you still understand everything, don't you?" With this spirit, the door frame, your second uncle's kung fu at the bottom of the box, and the unique craftsmanship of Old Man Hong. If you pick one and ponder carefully, isn't that better than your gossip of seeing six ways and listening to all directions? ”

"I said, brother, this is really not an idle matter! I listened to my second uncle gossip with the head of the house, saying that my sister-in-law has also reached the age of marriage, if I don't find a good family for my sister-in-law, I am afraid that there should be gossip on the street, saying that the head of the family has an old aunt and grandmother! I said senior brother. Are you really not afraid that my sister-in-law will ask others to rob her? Then you can't find the door when you really cry, so you can only watch a good cabbage and ask the pigs in the pigsty next door to gnaw it."

Void kicked at the Nine Monkeys. Xiangyou Leopard raised his voice and shouted at the nine monkeys: "Ma Yu'er shut up for me!" When you say anything, it doesn't sound like that."

Hehe smiled evilly and ran away a few steps, and the nine monkeys squeezed their eyebrows and pinched their throats towards Xiang Youbao and shouted: "Shopkeeper, you wrap these two things for me, hey, where can I send my wife and aunt's, this one is for my junior sister, and the other is for my sister."

Reaching out and touching the two small pieces of jewelry wrapped in big red flannel in his arms. Xiang Youbao's eyes widened suddenly, and he chased after the nine monkeys: "You kid, you are staring at your senior brother's head."

"It's not bad for me, senior brother, in the New Year, you are in the shop of Xinyuanfang, which is the boundary of selling women's jewelry, so I was curious to take a look."

Laughing and running and chasing in the crowd of people all over the street to pay New Year's greetings. It was only a moment's effort, and the lantern with the big red New Year flower in front of the main entrance of the fire was already in sight. grabbed the nine monkeys who were laughing endlessly, and Xiang Youbao gasped slightly and shouted at the nine monkeys with a smile: "Okay, don't mess around!" Looking at the posture in front of the door, it seems that there is a guest coming to pay New Year's greetings? ”

Raising his eyes and looking at the sturdy horses tied in front of the door of the hall, the nine monkeys blinked their eyes and raised their faces to Xiangyoubao and shouted: "Which character in this scene can come to the hall to pay New Year's greetings?" Looking at the panniers hanging on these horses, this New Year's gift is really quite thick? ”

Looking at the sturdy horses on the sturdy horses with oily and bronze willow panniers, the leopard only pondered for a moment, and suddenly understood: "It is estimated that it is the old head of the Changping camel road who came to pay New Year's greetings!" This really means Cao Cao, Cao Cao! Master Nine Monkeys, you also entered from the entrance of the hall, and ran to the small corner door behind the soles of your feet, and said to your second uncle, please come out to meet the old man of the road! ”

With a neat answer, the nine monkeys stepped up under their feet and immediately ran away. And Xiang Youbao also walked a few steps to the entrance of the main gate of the fire, and greeted the old man Lu and a few sturdy camels who had just finished saluting with Na Jiuye in the lobby and had not had time to sit down: "Old man Lu, you are auspicious!" There is a leopard in the apprentice in the main gate of the fire, and I have a New Year's greeting for you here."

The mouth kept saying auspicious words, and the soles of his feet walked smoothly, and the leopard walked in front of the old man with his fists, but his hands were slightly spread out towards the old man, and he pretended to take out a posture of the younger generation to ask the elders for the New Year's money.

Smiled and hugged his fist to Xiang Youbao in return, Lu Lao looked at Xiang Youbao's pretended to be rewarding, and suddenly turned sideways, and smiled at Xiang Youbao: "Xiangye, you are really going to torture my old man!" With our friendship, I really dare to give you a New Year's red envelope as an elder in the Huozheng Gate Hall? ”

Seeing that Xiang Youbao accepted the reward posture along the water, Na Jiuye, who was standing in the lobby of the main gate of the fire to welcome guests, also smiled at the old man Lu and laughed in harmony: "Old man Lu, you are really polite!" You said that with the friendship between our two families, walking around each other during the New Year should have been shared, but you still came to the door with such a generous gift, how can you ask me to thank you? ”

Sitting down with a smile under the courteous greeting of Xiang Youbao, Lu Lao turned his head and hugged his fist towards Na Jiuye: "Na Jiuye, you also said that the friendship between our two families is not ordinary, then I also take your hall as a solid friend, so I took these worthless things as a New Year's gift, I hope you can make it good!" ”

Raising his hand and beckoning a few sturdy camel handlebars to open a few heavy panniers in front of him, the old man pointed to the neatly picked up items in the panniers and smiled: "There are two hundred catties of ox knee medicine here, all of which are bits and pieces picked up by my camel team outside the mouth, and they are not worth a few big children." I'm just thinking that when you're serving the bullfighting bull in the hall, maybe you can use this object to add some strength to the legs and feet of the bull? ”

"This is a sun-dried water letter grass, usually serving the big animals, but they also like to use this thing to deworm the big animals, I don't know if you can call it here?"

"There are also this snakeberry stone, wolf claw tip, hundred step flowers, old empty green, these are all bits and pieces collected by the camel team when they walked outside the mouth in previous years, and they are all old things that have been around for a few years, I am just thinking about it, you can use it if you can use it, and if you don't need it, you can laugh at me as a layman?"

Seeing the neatly packed packs of medicinal materials and objects, Na Jiu Ye suddenly straightened his face, and respectfully arched his head to the ground towards Lu Lao: "Na Jiu, the head of the Huozheng Gate, thank you for being in charge of Changping Camel Bank!" ”

Standing up busily, Lu Lao bowed his head to Na Jiuye, but at the same time, he laughed loudly: "I can't be like you, I can't be like you."

also bowed to Lu Lao's head, but Xiang Youbao said respectfully: "Lu Lao's head, your gift is too thick!" Not to mention the fat ones, hyssop medicine and water letter herbs, which are also good medicinal materials that are difficult to buy for money outside the mouth. There are also year-old snakeberry stones, wolf claw tips, and the characters who train things know that they are treasures that are hard to find in a hundred years.

Raising his hand and patting the old son standing beside him, Lu Lao shook his head with a smile and shook his head: "Xiangye, I don't care about what I said, just because you reached out to save my old son, I can't repay this kindness in my life!" Speaking of which, there is another gentleman here, is it convenient to meet today? ”

glanced at Na Jiuye, and said in harmony to the old man Lu: "It's also a coincidence, that master is enshrined in the main gate of my fire, and he just returned to the hall today." Old man Lu, borrow a step under your feet, let's talk later? ”

Beckoning a few camels to drink tea and sit down, Xiang Youbao and Na Jiuye greeted the old man and his son who had just recovered from his injuries and walked into the courtyard of the second entrance, and after greeting Yan Xu, who had already received the news, they sat down in the discussion room together.

Seeing that the clever Nine Monkeys left the discussion room after delivering tea and snacks, Xiang Youbao bowed his hand to Lu Lao's head: "Lu Lao'er, I won't tell you those vain soups here." If you don't come today, I won't be able to say that I will go to Changping Camel Line to find you tomorrow! ”

Raising his eyebrows slightly, Lu Lao turned his head towards Xiang Youbao and said in a harmonious voice: "Xiangye, what do you have to say, there is nothing that our two families can't discuss!" (To be continued......)
