Liu Sanbian's torment and exhaustion on the way to Hangzhou were replaced by excitement.

When people have recuperated enough, they begin to spend time chatting. Hey, there was a partner of the second uncle on this trip, and although Liu Sanbian also encountered some embarrassing questions, most of the time it was very entertaining, forgetting the melancholy and worry in his heart.

The second uncle's man was a talkative person, and he didn't get any answer to the question he asked Liu Sanbian when he got on the boat, and he tolerated it with the bearing of a businessman and a wealthy man.

On the Jiangnan River, I don't know what the name of the small pier, the rope hanging the sail was broken and needed to be replaced, the boatman said to the passengers: "The weather is cold, everyone can take a walk nearby, move around, and buy some food to satisfy hunger by the way." Don't go far, set off right away. The important thing is to be optimistic about their own things, and they are not responsible for falling out. ”

The second uncle's guy carried a small wooden box, walked to Liu Sanbian's side, and warmly invited: "Get off the boat to breathe, suffocate to death, let's go, let's go together!" ”

Liu Sanbian nodded, said "You please", and let the enthusiastic guy get off the boat first. But the gangplank connected to the shore on the boat didn't seem to be very strong, and the guy who walked in front told Liu Sanbian to be careful and hold the railing, Liu Sanbian walked on it and swayed, and he did as the guy instructed.

After getting off the boat, the guy dragged Liu Sanbian to a tavern and asked for advice: "Drink two glasses of wine, warm up, I'll have a treat!" ”

"I'll invite you!" Liu Sanbian and the guy sat at a table at the door of the tavern, it was a good place, you could see the boat on board, and you could also see the excitement.

The two of them warmed two pots of wine and asked for a plate of beef in sauce and a plate of crispy peanuts. One person also asked for a bowl of somen noodles.

The guy at the tavern said, "Guest officer, drink first, and the noodles will be delivered immediately." ”

"Man, give!" Liu Sanbian took out a silver ticket, and the tavern guy looked at it and said with a smile. "This uncle, we are a small business, and we have never seen such a big mile!"

Liu Sanbian was stunned and stared at the guy in the tavern. At this time, the second uncle's buddy grabbed the silver ticket from the tavern guy's hand, handed it to Liu Sanbian, and said with a smile: "Put it away quickly, a little money on the road is the most convenient, I said that I invited you!" ”

The two of them were chatting. While persuading alcohol. The guy in the tavern found the surplus money, looked at Liu Sanbian, pointed to the second uncle's guy and asked, "This uncle is a businessman at first glance, presumably this uncle should be the big boss." ”

"Hey, you know people with your right eye, but you are clumsy with your left eye!" The second uncle's guy said, "It doesn't hurt to tell you, this son has a lot of background." It's not just the boss! ”

"Ah, who is this? Can you tell me about it? The tavern guy said, "See if I can stand or not!" ”

The second uncle's guy shook his head to stop Liu Sanchang, and continued to dance with his eyebrows: "This is the famous Liu Sanchang Liu Gongzi in the capital, his new words are hard to buy, no, just take out a small ticket." You haven't seen it. ”

"Not worth mentioning, not worth mentioning." Liu Sanbian said modestly, picked up his wine glass, and invited, "Come." Borrow flowers and offer Buddha, drink! ”

The guy in the tavern is indeed a person who has seen the world, and when he heard that he was the leader of the new word in the capital, he said with a smile on his face: "The name of Liu Gongzi is like thunder, the last time I went to the capital, I heard that young people under the age of twenty became grandmasters and accepted many famous apprentices, and it is said that many of them are not only seventy or eighty years old, but also have a very prominent status." ”

"Ah, my brother is really knowledgeable!" The second uncle's buddy said, "This is a grand event that has not been encountered in Beijing for a thousand years, and you have caught up with it, you are really lucky, lucky!" ”

The more they talked, the more lively they became, the more and more strange people piled up, and many people rushed in to see the young master who had not been seen for a thousand years.

"Today I will be the east, please Liu Gongzi!" Unexpectedly, the guy at the dock tavern is the owner of this shop, and he is bold enough, he said, "Liu Gongzi accepted apprentices in the capital and held a feast in the park, and I saw the situation for the first time in my life, the wine and meat were pulled by a carriage, and everything you wanted to eat was invited, and you wanted to drink at will, not to hide it from everyone, I just went to see the excitement after eating, I somehow still ate it, and I ate and drank a meal." The tavernkeeper spoke with a splatter.

Everyone shouted: "Yes, you should treat you, and it can be regarded as paying off the debt!" ”

This tavern store is not big, but the courtyard dam is not small. The crowd gathered in groups of three or five, clamoring and shouting, arguing to say some anecdotes about new words, about Liu Sanchang, and about the brothels in the capital, and they talked and looked at Liu Sanchang.

"The boss really has a business mind, and he is the ingredient for eating this bowl of rice!" The second uncle's guy praised it greatly, "No, a few words will bring the business over, and it will also make a reputation for affection and righteousness." ”

Liu Sanbian was obviously moved by the generosity of the tavern owner, he thought for a moment, beckoned the boss to come to him and said: "You are affectionate, I can't be unrighteous, the four treasures of the study are serving, I mention a couplet, which is my gratitude!" ”

"Liu Gongzi wants to leave Mobao here, come and see!" When the boss heard this, he shouted loudly, and after calling, he turned around and brought two pots of wine and a plate of peanuts, "Please, please!" ”

When the second uncle's buddy was lamenting that the tavern owner had made too much money, the buddy of the warm wine sent the four treasures of the study.

Liu Sanbian stood up, rolled up his sleeves, used the wine jug as a paperweight, and wrote down the next couplet in a regular manner, that is, "trembling and slightly descending the trestle". Everyone looked at the word and praised it, a master of new words, and a master of calligraphy. But many people think that this sentence is ordinary and nothing special.

The tavern owner, who is also a well-read person, explained: "The couplet is in the 'couplet', and if you put it together, there will be a mystery, if you don't believe it, you wait, the amazing move will come soon!" ”

Liu Sanbian adjusted the end of the pen on the ink inkstone, and everyone waited with bated breath. Liu Sanbian paused for a moment and wrote: "Go to the tavern happily."

Now it's good, those who have drunk and those who haven't drunk are all drunk, and they are all howling hysterically.

"Put it up right away, it's destined to be a place with history! Thank you Liu Gongzi for your generous gift! The boss commanded with a blow on the ink, and a cloud of sorrow crossed his face.

Liu Sanbian asked, "Boss, my couplet is not to your liking?" ”

"How dare you!" The boss said, "The couplet should be complete only if there is a horizontal batch, and the fly in the ointment is ......"

"Well, this is natural!" Liu Sanbian asked, "You don't have any paper, where do you write it?" ”

The boss's face was full of laughter, and he knocked on the table where Liu Sanbian was sitting and drinking: "Isn't this ready-made?" ”

"This boss is too powerful, it is a matter of time before he gets rich, and it is a matter of time before he makes a fortune!" The second uncle's guy praised, "The wine table was used by Liu Gongzi, and the signboard of the store was written on it, and it was glued to the wall, hey, there must be an endless stream of guests who come here, and it is difficult not to make a fortune, but I am afraid that the boss will beware of being buried alive by money!" ”

After Liu Sanbian adjusted the pen, the tavern owner held the ink inkstone, and Liu Sanbian wrote four words: Warm Heart Restaurant. (To be continued.) )
