But recently, the little old man met a good man.

That is, not long after the Northern Anhui Army entered the city two days ago, and order had just been restored in the city, the old man opened the door of the store and took the risk to see if he could attract two guests.

As soon as I opened the door, I met a young officer with a few followers into his shop, and then sat down in his shop, and ordered two plates of peanuts, two plates of simple side dishes, and a pot of old rough wine.

The officer's position must be very high, although he doesn't know how high it is, but he also saw that there were a lot of pro-soldier guards around the man, when he encountered this kind of thing, the little old man was happy and worried, happy that the other party was naturally a big official, and it was very likely that he would not rely on his own food money, but the worry was that when Zhang Xun's department entered the city, it had become a common practice for soldiers not to pay their bills!

Therefore, after thinking about it for a long time, the little old man who thought that as long as nothing happened, decided not to open his mouth to talk about money, if the other party gave it, it was naturally good, if he didn't give it, he would consider himself unlucky, as long as the other party didn't make trouble here.

Who knew that the young and excessive officer, in the face of the trembling little old man, asked some things about Xuzhou City in a kind manner, and even let himself sit down to eat something with him, but where did he dare at that time, although the other party was kind and angry, with a smile on his face, he didn't dare to move.

However, when I heard the other party's question, I didn't dare to hide it, for fear that it would not be impossible to be smashed by the other party, so I had to stand honestly and answer the other party's various questions.

But what pleased the little old man the most was that the other party not only did not mean to make trouble, but paid the meal money when he left, and that's it, the other party actually gave two whole yuan, saying that he was the reward for answering the other party!

These two oceans are enough for half a month's turnover!

The old man, who was overjoyed, didn't dare to follow directly, and refused distressedly, and finally the young officer just smiled, then put the money on the table, and left directly with the people.

And it was after that time that several shops around the little old man dared to open.

After that, the old man was a little dazed, constantly thinking that he had met a good person, and he even thought greedily that if this kind of good thing happened a few more times, it was estimated that his son's daughter-in-law would be enough.

At this time, the old man had already fallen asleep, listening to the snoring sound of his son in the outer room, with a satisfied smile on his face, with his son by his side, and a small wine shop barely getting by, this day can be regarded as passing.

Thinking of these, the old man couldn't help but touch the heavy things under the pillow again, and the smile on the corner of his mouth became more obvious, if he could see his grandson before he died, and he could explain to his wife when he got there, there would be no regrets in this life.

"Bang bang bang! Bang bang bang!! At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door outside, and then the sound of his own door being kicked kept coming, shattering the old man's sweet dream.

The old man's son outside had woken up, the old man didn't know what was going on, so he quickly got up, and then walked out directly, grabbed his son who wanted to ask over there, pulled behind him, took two steps forward, separated the door, and asked with some trepidation: "Who is outside, what's the matter?" ”

"Open the door, open the door! Aren't you a liquor store here? Let's come over and ask for a drink, hurry up, we're going to slam the door before we open the door! There were bursts of shouting outside, which made the old man even more vigilant, it was the middle of the night, how could he come to drink at this time.

And thinking of all kinds of rumors on the street today, saying that a big man came from the north and wanted to take over here with soldiers, I couldn't help but feel moved, the Northern Anhui Army has never been in this situation, could it be someone over there? ! But doesn't it mean that those who come from the north have not yet entered the city?

"Official, it's already midnight, we have already closed our doors, why don't you come tomorrow, come over tomorrow, count me as a treat" Thinking of this, the old man became vigilant, at this time he only wanted to let these people leave, where did he dare to open the door.

"What officials don't care about people, Lao Tzu is your military master! Hurry up, don't talk nonsense, I don't have time to yell at you, tomorrow the whole city will be ours, don't you want to fuck here in the future! ”

The people outside did not leave because of the old man's words, but the sound of banging on the door became more and more urgent, and the dilapidated door kept shaking, as if it was about to fall.

At this time, the old man's heart jumped when he heard this, and he was sure that he guessed correctly, thinking that if he was taken over by these people in the future, his store might not be able to continue, and he couldn't help but feel sad in his heart, he originally hoped that the big man in the north could be like the Han chief in northern Anhui, but it was obviously impossible

"It turned out to be a military master, and he will come right away, and he will come right away." The old man didn't dare to stop him at this time, so he agreed repeatedly, and then motioned for his son to go back to the house and wait for him not to come out.

If other people still have the courage to say a few words, but in this troubled world, anything can be offended, the only thing that cannot be offended is those who are soldiers, one is not good, it is enough for you to be unlucky, because not any army will be as disciplined as Han Zheng's Northern Anhui Army.

At this time, I unconsciously began to miss that Han Dashuai's subordinates, at least these days, those soldiers under Han Dashuai do not have the habit of knocking on the door in the middle of the night, nor do they have the hobby of robbery, especially the generous young officer, if they leave, those people outside will take over here, and they will definitely not be like when Han Dashuai was there.

The old man thought about what he didn't have, but he didn't dare to delay any longer, so he stepped forward and prepared to open the door.

Maybe the people outside were waiting in a hurry, just when the old man was about to arrive at the door, the swaying door panel finally shattered to the ground, and the dust gradually reached the old man's eyes, making the old man squint unconsciously, and then he looked at the broken door with distress, if it was repaired, I don't know how much it would cost, and this door was made by the two of them when his wife was there, but at this time it was broken into pieces.

But at this time, after seeing the other party's dominance, where did he dare to talk nonsense, he endured the pity in his heart, walked a few steps and said with a smile: "A few bosses, sit down quickly, there are no other good things in the store, there is still some wine, but there is no good wine." ”

"Stop the fucking nonsense, hurry up and get the wine up!" These people paid no attention to the old man's words, and the gun in his hand kept shaking, flickering with a cold light under the light of the oil lamp, making the old man feel the breath of death.

Looking at the other party's cruel smile, he didn't dare to say more, and hurriedly ran to the back, brought a few jars of old wine, and brought some boiled peanuts and rice together, just hoping to spend the night safely, serve these military masters well, let them leave, and then talk about it, as for the loss, thank God for being able to spend tonight safely.

"Count your knowledge, pour Lao Tzu full of wine, use a big bowl, and don't get drunk today!" The leader said arrogantly, and dozens of people behind him also rushed in at this time, and immediately filled the small shop, and the little old man hurriedly took out all kinds of stools and waited carefully.

Soon, these soldiers were lively, and the noise could be heard from afar, and some of the surrounding residents were awakened, but they did not dare to do much, and they did not even dare to grasp the lamp, so they glanced through the crack in the door, and then hurried back, closed the door, and used a table to hold it, and listened to the movement outside in fear.

"Phew! What the fuck are you drinking! Are you trying to fool Lao Tzu! I don't think you want to open your store in the future! After everyone drank for a while, the leading soldier suddenly drank angrily, and the wine in his mouth squirted out directly, making the old man's head and face all over the place, and the surrounding soldiers saw it and immediately laughed.

Before the old man could explain, the man slapped the old man in front of him with a smiling face twice, the old man was already in his fifties, how could he withstand such a slap? The already loose teeth were suddenly knocked out a few times, a few traces of blood flowed from the corners of the mouth, and the body was even more staggering, falling to the ground.

The people around him were still just smiling and not hindering, as if such things were commonplace, and where there was any good wine in this kind of small wine shop, it made them unpleasant to drink.

At the same time, when watching the old man being beaten, there was a perverted pleasure, as if the fright he had received in the afternoon had been vented, and the applause was louder, and there were even a few people who were eager to try and want to practice their fists and feet!

"Sir, sir, military master, this is really the best drink in the store, really" The old man had a bitter face at this time, and he didn't care about wiping the blood flowing from the corners of his mouth, as well as the pain around him, kneeling on the ground, and kept explaining, trying to let the other party bypass him.

"And said! I'll let you say it back! See if I don't beat you to death, even the military master dares to fool you! The soldier seemed to have found an alternative pleasure, and was satisfied with his soul, and when he heard the other party's words, he actually laughed with a cruel smile on his face, and went up to the old man's body twice, and once again knocked the old man to the ground, and his mouth still kept saying: "You old immortal, you are still hard-mouthed!" ”

At this time, the son of the old man who was hiding in the house saw his old father wailing at the feet of the other party, and the corners of his mouth kept leaving blood, and the soldier was still kicking and beating his old father, and finally couldn't help it, even though he was a coward, but at this time he no longer shrank his head.

The old man's son rushed out, hugged the company commander's legs tightly, and blocked the old father stiffly.

The old man glanced at his son in a daze, and wanted to let his son hide quickly, but he saw the firmness in his son's eyes, and sighed in his heart, not knowing whether he was happy about his son's filial piety or worried about the situation of himself and his son. (To be continued.) )
