Chapter 29: Daddy, Bear (Second Watch, Asking for Votes)
In fact, that day, Wang Youde received a report from Qian Dafu, saying that someone was selling bears. immediately made him very happy, because he knew that in two days, it would be the fiftieth birthday of Qin Qiong, the Duke of Hu Guo. And he even learned that this Qin Qiong seemed to have a soft spot for this bear meat.
If anyone can get a bear and give it to him as a birthday gift, if nothing else, he will definitely win his favor. And almost everyone knows how high the prestige of this Hu Guogong in the Tang army is.
In that year, the Wagang uprising, the eighteenth road against Wang Xingbing and the Sui Dynasty, this Qin Qiong, with his handsome talent and bravery, not only won the trust of the officers and soldiers of Wagangzhai, but also other rebel troops, no matter who they were, when they mentioned this Qin Qiong, they all had to give a thumbs up.
And now in the Tang Army, how many generals have defected to Li Shimin from the peasant rebel army. A third, that's definitely not much.
And the current emperor has an extraordinary relationship with Qin Qiong. Above the court are monarchs and ministers, and in private, this Li Shimin calls Qin Qiong his brother. It is even said that this Qin Qiong also has the grace of life for the Li family.
Of course, although this Wang Youde also wants to befriend this Hu Guogong, it is obvious that he knows that he is not enough for that weight at all, and there is not much benefit. However, if he can't make friends, it doesn't mean that others can't either, for example, their family chooses a good partner to work with.
If this person befriends this Hu Guogong and succeeds, it will be a great thing.
It's a pity that because he met the prey of Cui Yingying, Wang Dashao wanted to have a good time, and he was happy. didn't take it on the spot, and was snatched away by Cheng Xiaojin halfway. How can I keep him from being angry?
Lu Guogong Mansion
"Daddy, Daddy, Bear, Bear"
Suddenly, there was a very loud voice. The voice was so loud that it would definitely make everyone in the Mansion hear it clearly.
Those subordinates who were already busy with their work were stunned by this sudden voice. Then, a roaring burst of laughter immediately rang out in the entire Guogong Mansion. However, the laughter soon came to an abrupt end.
A middle-aged man with a very burly figure and a very strong appearance was sitting in the living room of the Guogong Mansion. First, he looked around like a thief, maybe he saw that there was no special situation. So, I came to the Taishi chair in the living room and found a very comfortable position to sit down.
"Haha, great, the old woman went out today, and those bastard boys also went out to run errands. It just so happened that the good wine that I just got from the emperor can only be enjoyed by me."
As he spoke, as if by magic, he took out a delicate flask from his sleeve.
However, this guy is too bold, he dares to go to the palace to drink. This has to wait until the wife and children go out and secretly eat it alone. Who the is this, it's too unparticular to do things.
This person who can casually drink from the palace or from the emperor is certainly not an ordinary person. This middle-aged and fierce man, that is the owner of this Lu Guogong Mansion, the famous Lu Guogong, Cheng Biting Jin.
This guy is coaxing outside, looking like the boss and my second child, as if he is not afraid of anyone. However, those who know him understand that this guy is a strict wife and is afraid of his wife.
At the same time, everyone also knows that this old Cheng is still an out-and-out drunkard. It's the kind of person who can hold the wine jar for a lifetime. However, the tragedy is here. Except for eating, Lao Cheng was allowed to drink a little wine by Kai's grace, and at any other time, he was forbidden by this old lady Chen.
Didn't this cost Lao Cheng half his life, after several resistances, they were ruthlessly suppressed. Lao Cheng is also a person who can bend and stretch, if the bright one is not good, let's come to the dark.
In a hidden place in the house, he hid the wine, and then, if there was nothing to do, he fooled his daughter-in-law to go out to play. Then, a person secretly drinks.
Originally, I thought that in this way, the dark Chen Cang would succeed, and the good days would finally come back to my side. Who knows, it didn't take long for an accident to happen.
In this mansion, Mrs. Cheng is forbidden to drink, but Lao Cheng is not the only one. The three Xiao Cheng enjoyed the same treatment as their father, and just now, these three brothers were also the type who couldn't move when they saw wine.
It's a pity that they are not as ghostly and experienced as Lao Cheng. Every time the place where the wine is hidden, Mrs. Cheng can always find it easily, and then, the economic blockade makes them cry without tears.
As the saying goes, those who dig graves must know who the grave robbers are. Regarding the matter of Lao Cheng's wine collection, the three brothers must know. The so-called blessings are shared and difficulties are shared, even fathers and sons try this one. So, the three brothers strongly demanded to share the spoils with Lao Cheng.
If you don't agree, then everyone will finish playing together, and the three brothers will help supervise, and then go to sue the black and make a small report. As soon as this move came out, Lao Cheng was powerless to fight back. Drink less, it's better than not having to drink, besides, it's quite pitiful to look at these three little bastards, how can you ignore yourself as a father, Lao Cheng comforted himself.
"Bastard boys, Daddy can't stand you. I can usually leave you a little bit to satisfy your cravings, but this is good wine....... so you should honor your father."
At this moment, Lao Cheng has no sense of guilt, in front of the wine, the friendship between father and son is a fart, Lao Cheng thought in his heart. Then, regardless of it, he raised his head, opened his mouth wide, and then high-end the wine jug, and did not need a wine glass, and wanted to play a handsome one.
"Bang"
"Ah.......... Lao Tzu's wine, ......"
With the sound coming from the gate, a very loud "Dad, bear", Lao Cheng's hand shook. Then the porcelain bottle was thrown away. With a bang, Lao Cheng felt that his heart had also fallen to the ground.
Saying that, he was sweating profusely, pulling the cart excitedly, entering the house, and immediately running to report the good news to his father. However, I have just arrived at the door of the living room. When I looked up, I saw that my old man was already standing there, looking at himself with a straight face and wide eyes, and his face was three points darker than the bottom of the pot.
"Oops, I'm going to be unlucky, sir"
As soon as he saw his father's expression, Cheng Chubi knew that he was going to be in bad luck. This is a painful lesson and an experience for countless times.
However, it seems that I didn't have a gun and drink with this old guy today, so I shouldn't be. Except for his wine, there seems to be nothing worthy of this old man's anger.
Could it be a fight, no, I didn't fight today, that is, I just scared and scared the person surnamed Wang. Moreover, according to the usual practice, even if he really wrinkled the surname Wang, the old man would not be so angry.
Even if he beat up Li You's bastard that time, the old man's face was not as good as it is today. Unless it's a fight outside and you lose, isn't it......
"You little bastard, what are you doing? Didn't you go to buy New Year's goods, did you buy New Year's goods? As for the New Year's goods, there is still some silver left. I want to check it, if you dare to hide the silver taels, and quote the list indiscriminately, hehe......."
Lao Cheng originally wanted to clean up this kid directly, but with a roll of his eyes, he felt that it couldn't be done. I was originally swallowing wine and eating alone, and I couldn't let him know. Pick him up in this name, if there is a **, this kid will run to his wife to complain, then he won't be able to eat and walk around.
However, it is too simple to find a real reason. The reason why this little bastard rushed to help his family buy New Year's goods was not because this guy was diligent and sensible. It's to secretly deduct some silver taels, and then, go outside to drink. In this name to clean him up, he has a word of suffering.
"Dad, I've spent all the money, it's gone"
Looking at his father's wicked smile, Cheng Chubi's heart was furious.
"What, it's gone, well, that's good, what about the New Year's goods, Lao Tzu will see what you bought. Don't drive the carriage over yet, I'm going to check it."
This time, Lao Tzu, you must take the evidence of your private possession of silver taels, check the goods, and everything will be clear.
"Carriage? The carriage is gone......
Hearing the old man lift the carriage, Cheng Chubi remembered that he had given the carriage to the eldest brother who sold bears, and exchanged his carriage with him. At that time, I was only interested in being happy, and I was too lazy to carry it around.
"That is to say, you have lost all your money, you have not bought anything, and you have not even lost your carriage. You have met a hero in the green forest, you tell the old man. You have to think about it, don't take you for a fool. You must know that this is at the foot of the Son of Heaven and Chang'an City. You and Lao Tzu tell me about the situation, Lao Tzu immediately went to the palace to find the emperor, and then led the army to destroy this daring robber, how about it? ”
When Lao Cheng heard this, he was happy, and thought, boy, you're going to be bad this time. Even if I want to let you go, your wife will have to clean you up when she comes back. Your kid's guts are really getting fatter, not only did he run out of money, he didn't buy anything back, and he even sold all the carriages. It's black, it's really black, it's darker than Lao Tzu. That's too unreliable, isn't it?
"Dad, I don't ............. No .......... bought anything and came back. ”
Cheng Chubi knew that this time it was a big trouble, this old thing was too scary, even the emperor had moved out, as for it. I was nervous for late-night supper.
"What the hell are you talking about, did you buy it, or didn't you have it?"
"I ....... buy it"
"What bought? Show me Lao Tzu."
"Bear ......"
As soon as he heard the word bear, Lao Cheng immediately remembered his pot of wine, and this anger immediately came up, where can I still listen to it.
"You still dare to mention the bear, Lao Tzu today, I have to let you look in the mirror to see what the bear looks like............"
