Section 84 Chinese New Year (II)
According to the saying of 'fast immortals, slow ancestors', please ancestors must be slow, and the time of the sacrifice is also very long, and it will only end at the time of the third watch.
At this time, the women reappeared, they used the soup to cook the blessing ceremony, burned the rice cakes, the noodles, and each person shared a bowl, called 'Sanfu', in fact, it was to cook supper for the people who tossed for a night.
After supper, the people went back to sleep.
It is said that when I slept on the fourth watch, I should have gotten up very late, but when I got up before dawn, I saw that the father who was sleeping outside was gone.
He took a closer look, the futon was neat and tidy, and he recalled that he had laid the quilt for him last night, and knew that his father had got up on his own, so he let go of his heart.
I went back to the house and slept for a while, and when I got up again, I found that my father had not come back, and Shen Mo was finally anxious now, so he called Shen Jing and went out of the house to look for it. When they arrived at the gate, Menzi told them that Shen Ye opened the gate before dawn and went out, and his face was not abnormal.
"Didn't you say where to go?" Shen Mo asked with a frown.
"This villain really asked." Menzi smiled and said, "I said, 'Where are you going to go so early?'" Shen Ye said: "Go to the old mansion and go around." ’”
"What old mansion?" Shen Jing asked.
"Our original home." Shen Mo said softly: "It is close to the west of Yongchang Fang." ”
The two walked out, and as soon as they went out, they saw Daddy Yao's carriage parked outside the door, and he came over early in the morning to wait......
Shen Mo was no longer polite this time, greeted Father Yao, and got into the car with Shen Jing, and the carriage slowly drove west.
A quarter of an hour later, the carriage traveled to a street far away from the bustling city, where the houses were quite large, and the houses were full of lights and beams. But there was one at the east end, where the walls were covered with withered grass and the skin had fallen off a lot, revealing yellow-brown bricks, which had apparently been desolate and abandoned for a long time, and was incompatible with the celebratory atmosphere.
The silence asked Daddy Yao to stop in front of the dilapidated courtyard, and when he looked through the car window, the gate was indeed open.
He got out of the car with his help and said to Shen Jing: "Three or four years ago, this was my home. Father Yao was watching the car outside, and the two slowed down and walked in.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw Shen He arguing with people with red faces, and there were a few strong men on the side.
Shen Mo grabbed Shen Jing and said softly: "Go and find Ma Dianshi, his house is on the back street, you can find it as soon as you ask." Shen Jing knew the priority, nodded and said, "Be careful." Then he hurried out.
Shen Mo took his steps seriously and walked in quickly. As soon as Shen He saw that the rescuers had come, he immediately shouted: "Chaosheng, come over and comment, how can there be such a reason in the world?" ”
The person who was opposed to Shen He turned his head, but it was a short and fat man with a scarred face, and when he saw Shen Mo coming, he bared his big yellow teeth and said, "What's the boy?" Want to fight? The two strong men on the side also stepped forward and glanced at him with malicious intent.
Shen Moli ignored them and asked his father softly, "Father, what happened?" ”
As soon as he saw his son coming, Shen He seemed to have a pillar, and said indignantly: "At the beginning, I pawned the house to them at the price of forty taels of silver, but now I want to redeem it, but he said that he wants four hundred taels of silver!" ”
The scar-faced man squinted a pair of small eyes and said, "It was forty taels at the beginning, but now that three years and three months have passed, is there no interest?" ”
"Even if it's three cents, it's less than forty taels!" Shen He said angrily.
"I'm sorry, the rules of our name, profit rolling, profit, three years and three months, even the capital is four hundred taels." The man sneered: "If you can't redeem it, get out of here, the brothers are still waiting to go home for the New Year." "This guy obviously doesn't know Shen He.
"Who are you telling to fuck off?" Silently, he stood in front of the man with a sinking face.
"You ......" The man stretched out his hand to Shen Mo, and before he could say the dirty words, he heard Shen Mo say coldly: "If you don't withdraw this hand immediately, I guarantee that you and your arms will be separated for the New Year." ”
The man was stunned for a moment, and then laughed and said, "Boy, where did you come from?" Dare to talk to Lao Tzu like this? ”
"A scholar." Shen Mo said with a low expression: "What kind of mouth are you, you might as well report it and listen to it." ”
"We're not cousins, we're teeth!" The scarface bared his teeth and said, "How is it, are you afraid?" "The tooth shop was originally an intermediary agency that matched the sale and transaction, and this dynasty has only developed its scale and become an organization integrating inns, warehousing and circulation, which still has a positive effect at first, but in the past few decades, it has gradually become a gathering place for local ruffians and hooligans, and has degenerated into a synonym for forced buying and selling, bullying and dominating the market, abducting and selling people, and usury, which makes the people afraid and hate, and makes the people in power headaches.
"Sure enough, it's 'the car and boat shop's feet, and the innocent should be killed.'" Shen Mo still said expressionlessly: "Are you Wang Laohu's person, or He Laoqi's person?" "There is almost no other business in the world, and it is more suitable for the underworld to breed than the tooth shop, so the largest gangster in the two counties divided this business in half.
The man was finally frightened, looked at Shen Mo suspiciously, and said, "Who are you?" ”
"It's just a scholar." Shen Mo said lightly: "But a scholar you absolutely can't afford to mess with." ”
"What a big breath?" The man laughed dryly and said, "What's your name?" ”
Dusting off the floating ash on his collar, he said softly, "My name is Shen Mo." ”
The three men looked at each other, and then laughed and said, "I haven't heard of it." ”
"But you old Qihe boss still know me." Shen Mo actually smiled and said, "Go back and ask and come again." ”
"I'm not scared." The scar-faced man was a little nervous and said, "How do you know that I am not Wang Laohu's person?" ”
"Because the tiger's head will go up and down, and there is no one who doesn't know me." Shen Mo said calmly: "After this time, you will also remember." ”
The scar-faced man suddenly crossed his mind...... During the Chinese New Year last year, three thugs of the Tiger Head Club were found naked hanging from the big tree in front of the temple, and several writing gentlemen were thrown into the dung pond. Although there was no evidence that the two things were involved, Boss He warned them that someone was taking revenge, and forbade them to discuss the matter, as if they were very jealous.
"Are you the ......" Scarface stammered, "That person?" ”
