Chapter 156 Volunteer Aid to the Elders
Li Zhong stood up and hugged Luda and said, "Li Zhong has seen Ti Ha!" ”
Luda nodded to Li Zhong as a gesture. Luda said to Shi Jin: "I don't know what happened to Brother Shi in Weizhou. ”
Shi Jin said: "I came here to find Master. ”
Luda said inexplicably: "Oh, it turns out that you came to find this Brother Li." ”
Shi Jin shook his head and said, "I'm here to find Master Wang Jin." ”
Luda was surprised and said, "Are you talking about that Wang Jin?" ”
Shi Jin said: "It is Wang Jin, who once served as the head of the 800,000 forbidden army in the capital. ”
Luda said: "Brother, I have also heard that Wang Jinjiao, the head of the sect, left Beijing because of Gao Yu's persecution, but I don't know where he went. ”
Shi Jin said: "Master Wang Jin once said to me when he left our Shijiazhuang that he was going to the border pass to join the old master. ”
Luda said: "Brother, you are in the wrong place, the seed scripture here is the nephew of the old seed scripture, known as the small seed scripture." ”
Shi Jin nodded disappointedly and said, "Oh, so that's the case, it seems that I am looking for the wrong place." ”
At this time, the shopkeeper brought the wine and food, and Luda filled the three cups with wine and said, "Come on, let's drink first." ”
The three of them had just drunk two glasses of wine when they heard a burst of crying and crying from the next room, and Ruda slapped the table irritably and shouted: "Little Er, who is making noise here, and not letting people be quiet." ”
The shopkeeper hurriedly ran over and said, "I'm sorry, Lord Tiha." I'm going to go and get rid of them. ”
While he was talking, he saw two people, old and young, walking out of the door, the old one was an old man with a white beard, and the younger one was a woman who was seventeen or eighteen years old.
The old man walked in with a slight tremble, bowed and said, "I've disturbed a few guest officers, it's really a little old man." ”
Luda hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Old man, don't want to make this big gift." ”
The old man raised his head, and Ruda looked at it and said, "Aren't you Uncle Jin?" ”
At this time, the woman also recognized Ruda. yelled: "Big brother! And he began to weep aloud.
Luda hurriedly said: "Xianzi, don't cry, if you have something to say." As he spoke, he moved over two or two chairs and said, "Uncle Jin, if you have anything to say, sit down and talk slowly." ”
Uncle Jin sat down slightly and said, "Lu Da, this is a long story." ”
Luda said: "Sister Xianzi, after I finished learning art from the mountains, I went to look for you, but who knew that you didn't know where you had moved." ”
Xianzi sobbed and said: "We were relocated there, we were captured by the Xixia dog, and then my grandfather and I escaped from the Xixia dog." Wandered here. He said another trumpet.
Uncle Jin sighed and said, "Alas! It's all fate, it's all an order. ”
Ruda asked anxiously, "What happened here?" ”
Uncle Jin stomped his feet angrily and said, "That knows, when we got here, our two of us actually met the wolf in human skin in Zhenguanxi. ”
Ruda said: "How the hell did you come back?" ”
Uncle Jin said: "After I and Xian'er were exiled to Weizhou, in order to survive, we had to make a living by singing, and I knew that Zheng Tu's dog thing was beautiful but fell in love with Xian'er's beauty, and forcibly took Xian'er to be his concubine, but Zheng Tu's mother-in-law was a jealous tigress, and in order to compete for favor, Xian'er was beaten out of Zheng's house." Zheng Tu forced us to marry Xian's childhood banquet money. So he put us here and sang every string to earn money and pay off his debts. ”
Luda was so angry that he slapped the table and stood up and said, "Is there any royal law here?" I'll go to the **** Zheng Tu to reason. ”
Uncle Jin hurriedly stopped and said, "Yo, this can't be helped." That Zheng Tu has a backer here, and besides, the strong dragon does not suppress the head snake. Lu Da, let's bear with it. ”
Ruda sat back in his chair and said, "Then tomorrow you can leave here and go back to your hometown." ”
Uncle Jin was embarrassed and said: "That relationship is good, but ......"
Luda took out twenty taels of silver and stuffed it into Uncle Jin's hand and said, "You take this bit of silver and spend it on the road." ”
At this time, Shi Jin also took out twenty taels of silver and said, "Uncle." Take the twenty taels of silver, pack up your things and go home." ”
Uncle Jin took the silver and said, "I have received the kindness of the two, but this place has been watched by the people of the Zheng Tu faction." Xian'er and I can't walk even if we want to. ”
Luda said: "It's okay, I'll take you and Xian'er out of the city early tomorrow morning, and see if you dare to come and stop you." ”
The next day, Luda got up early, had breakfast, hired a carriage, came to the Chunfeng Building, walked to the guest room to see, Uncle Jin and Xian'er had packed up the things they had carried with them, waiting anxiously there. Luda picked up a big burden from Uncle Jin and said, "Let's go, Uncle Jin, Xian'er, I'll send you out of the city." ”
The three of them had just come downstairs, and the shopkeeper saw them coming over, stopped in front of them and said, "I said, old man Jin, where are you going." ”
Uncle Jin said: "Little second brother, my father and I are going back to my hometown." ”
The shopkeeper grabbed Uncle Jin's sleeve and said, "Old man Jin, it's not okay for you to leave like this." ”
Luda stepped forward and opened the hand of the shopkeeper and said, "What, does this old man owe you money for the store!" ”
The shopkeeper shook his head and said, "No, the money they owe to the store was settled last night." ”
Ruda said: "Since they don't owe you money to the store, why don't you let it go." ”
The shopkeeper said: "They don't owe me money to the store, but they still owe Zheng Ye the money they haven't paid back." ”
Luda said: "Who is Zheng Ye?" ”
The shopkeeper said: "Zheng Ye is the town of Guanxi, and he came here yesterday." ”
Luda smiled and said, "Hehe, you let Uncle Jin leave here first, and I'll talk to Zheng Tu there." ”
The shopkeeper laughed and stretched out a little thumb and said, "Haha, you go and tell Zheng Ye, who do you think you are, a little magistrate, and you are not worthy of Zheng Ye's little thumb!" ”
Luda raised his hand and slapped the shopkeeper in the face, covered the shopkeeper's face and turned around on the ground, and "Porphyr" sat on the ground against the counter, and didn't dare to say anything again.
Ruda scolded: "Dog fighting human power thing! It's out of the way. Then Luda helped Uncle Jin and Xian'er onto the carriage lane: "Kimber, you can go with confidence." ”
Stretched out his hand and picked up a bench from the door of the teahouse: "The Sprinkle family is sitting here, see if the dog dares to come and block the way." ”
After sitting for half an hour, it was estimated that Uncle Jin and Xian'er had gone out of the city, so Luda stood up, walked to the shopkeeper who was sitting on the ground, kicked him and said: "You are a kid to remember the Sprinkle family, and you dare to help that Zheng Tu bully the kindness after you, and see how the Sprinkle family cleans you up." Then he leaned down and asked, "Say, where is Zheng Tu's shop?" ”
The shopkeeper stretched out his hand and said in a trembling voice: "Lord Tishi, you have walked out of the door of the teahouse and walked all the way to the east, and the first one next to the Weishui Bridge is Zheng Ye, no...... No...... Zheng Tu's shop. ”
Luda stretched out his hand and patted the shopkeeper's head and said, "Little Er, remember to have a long memory in the future." ”
As he spoke, he strode out of the teahouse and walked along the street to the east.
Come to the Weishui Bridge, there is the largest market in Weizhou City, people come and go lively, not far from the bridge, there are five large brick structure shops, with a long bamboo pole holding a banner with the word Zheng written on it, is in the morning breeze flickering and fluttering.
Ruda walked into the store and saw dozens of fat pig halves hanging from the big iron hooks on the beams, and more than a dozen men with dancing sticks were busy there.
Zheng Tutan showed his big belly, sat on a big chair, held a teapot in his hand, facing the spout, "squeaky" and tastefully tasting tea, like a big shopkeeper, Niu B was shining there.
Ruda walked to the counter full of pork, stretched out his hand and knocked on the board a few times: "Come here, panting, the sprinkler wants to cut the meat." ”
A shopkeeper hurriedly ran over and said, "Guest officer, if you want to eat that piece of meat, I'll cut it for you." ”
Luda said: "Let your shopkeeper come and talk." ”
When Zheng Tu heard the voice, he walked over with a teapot in his hand, and at a glance, he knew it, wasn't this the magistrate who was facing him in the Chunfeng Teahouse yesterday! Then he stepped forward and said, "I don't know what Tihar commands?" ”
Luda said: "The Sprinkle family came to buy some pork at the behest of Lord Jinglu. ”
Zheng Tu said: "Since Lord Jingluo eats meat, then it's easy to say, if you look at that piece, I'll let the guy cut it for you." ”
Luda glared and said, "Nonsense, how can the meat that Lord Jingluo wants to eat be able to get those dirty and lowly people to do it!" ”
Zheng Tu hurriedly put down the teapot in his hand and said, "Okay, I'll cut it myself." As he spoke, he walked to the board and picked up the knife and said, "Lord Tiha, you said you wanted that piece!" ”
Luda said: "First choose the best lean meat and chop ten catties of meat filling for me." ”
Zheng Tu said: "That's good, that's good!" As he spoke, he picked out a piece of meat and cut it finely, and the ten catties of meat were cut for more than half an hour, and beads of sweat the size of beans dripped down Zheng Tu's tired and fat face.
Zheng Tu wrapped the cut meat and big lotus leaves and said, "Okay, Lord Tihar." ”
Luda took it and put it aside and said, "Then choose ten catties of fat meat and cut it into the same filling." ”
Zheng Tu grabbed a towel, wiped it on his face a few times, and muttered: "Lean meat can make dumplings again, why do you want so much fatty meat?" ”
Luda said: "I know what to do, but that's what Lord Jingluo instructed, and I have to do it." Why don't you want to cut it? ”
The big fat on Zheng Tu's face twitched a few times and said, "Willing, willing!" ”
As he spoke, he cut off a big piece of fat and cut it with his head down. All this was nearly an hour, and this Zheng Tu's tired belly was bulging like a toad. (To be continued.) )
