Chapter 025: Talking and Laughing
The cuckoo on the side saw these people talking and laughing, and thought: Why did this guy suddenly become my brother? It was inevitable that he was unhappy in his heart, pretended to smile, walked up to Qin Xuan, and said, "So, you are my brother?" ”
Qin Xuan didn't know Du Juan's thoughts, and said that he was accepted by this little girl, and replied with a smile: "Sort of!" ”
The cuckoo suddenly changed his face and said sharply: "Even if you are my brother, our accounts must be settled well!" ”
When Du Xingwen heard this, he reprimanded sharply: "Juan'er, how can you speak, is there any etiquette!" ”
When Du Juan heard his brother's reprimand, he pouted, and stood aside angrily and glared at Qin Xuan, showing no weakness. If the eyes can kill people, I am afraid that Qin Xuan has already been executed by Ling Chi at this moment. Du Xingwen immediately turned his head to Qin Xuan, shook his head and apologized: "Brother Qin, don't be surprised, my father is a little pampered!" ”
Qin Xuan saw the raging fire in the cuckoo's eyes, how dare he talk nonsense, coughed lightly, and replied with a dry smile: "Brother Du, Sister Ling is straightforward, sincere, and lovable, why do you say that!" ”
Du Xingwen was speechless, so he had to divert the topic and said to Qin Xuan: "I just heard about these interesting things about Brother Qin's journey, which really makes Brother Wei a little envious!" ”
Qin Xuan waved his hand and said, "What kind of interesting thing is this, it has been quite hard along the way." If Brother Du goes through this way, I'm afraid he will think like me! ”
Du Xingwen smiled, and then said helplessly: "I don't know if my aunt has told you that the Zhang family has been forced by Qiao Lei to move away, and Qiao Lei also died of a serious illness three years ago!" ”
When Qin Xuan heard this, he was a little angry that Zhang Lao's family was forced to move away. At the same time, he was also interested in these things, and he was unconsciously moved: "Brother Du, tell me in detail!" ”
Du Xingwen sighed and said, "I also listened to what my father said, but there should be no mistake!" At that time, after his father refused his uncle's proposal, Qiao Lei came to threaten the entire Du family. In desperation, my father allowed my aunt to be Qiao Lei's concubine. Who knew that Qiao Lei somehow knew that his aunt still loved his uncle in his heart, so he ran to the house angrily to make trouble, and his father had no choice but to agree to cut off the supply of alcohol in the Zhangjia Tavern. In the end, the Zhang family had no choice but to move out. ”
When Qin Xuan heard this, he was angry with Qiao Lei, and he was also a little unhappy with Du Chengming, and said coldly: "What about later? ”
Du Xingwen picked up the teacup, took a sip, and then said: "The Zhang family moved away, and the family's wine was sold without land, and Qiao Lei opened a Qiao's tavern by himself in order to compensate. originally thought that they would be safe from then on, but who knows, but later it was rumored that my aunt and Brother Jie were kicked out of Qiao's mansion. For some reason, the aunt and aunt did not come back. That Qiao Lei thought that his father was a hindrance, so he began to slowly train the brewing master, but our family's wine can still be delivered to their tavern! ”
Qin Xuan snorted coldly and said, "Qiao Lei's actions, isn't it obvious that he wants to squeeze the Du family!" ”
Du Xingwen shook his head and sighed: "Yes, my father also understands, but Qiao Lei was still the master of Pingyang County at that time, so he had to swallow his anger." Three years ago, Qiao Lei died of illness, and his son Qiao Zhizhuo intensified his efforts and wanted to reduce the price of alcohol again, and his father was also angry and his neck was swollen because of this! ”
Qin Xuan thought for a moment and asked, "Why don't you open a tavern yourself?" Also, I think Du Lao's neck is swollen and I need to see a doctor. ”
Du Xingwen smiled dryly: "I won't tell you, in the past few days, I am planning to open a tavern." It's just that now the people in Pingyang City are used to going to Qiao's Tavern, and they are worried that no one will come, and in the end, they will lose all their money! ”
Qin Xuan's heart moved: I have also drunk this wine of the Tang Dynasty, and it is stronger than beer. If I help him increase his degree, I can help the Du family avoid the economic crisis, and I can also avenge the Zhang family. He said: "Brother Du, I once read an ancient book that talked about how to make wine taste stronger, if this kind of wine is brewed, I don't think anyone will come to buy a bar." ”
When Du Xingwen heard this, he said excitedly: "Brother Qin, can you really improve the wine?" ”
Qin Xuan said triumphantly: "That's natural, and I also have some opinions about opening a tavern!" Maybe I can help Brother Du! ”
The two of them talked about the details of the drinks and the opening of the tavern, and the rest of them listened quietly with great interest.
For such a long time, no one took care of the cuckoo, the cuckoo felt bored, saw Rui'er on the side, ran over, and teased: "Yo, this little boy looks a little cute, go out with his sister?" ”
Rui'er glanced up at the cuckoo and said disdainfully: "It's a bad time!" ”
The cuckoo suddenly became interested, squatted in front of Rui'er and said, "Then tell me, what's wrong?" ”
Rui'er said casually: "You should be my aunt!" ”
The cuckoo secretly rejoiced in his heart: Although it is a little unfortunate today, it is also a pleasure to have this lovely child called aunt! pinched Rui'er's face and said, "Then you call and let my aunt listen!" ”
"I don't want it, you're so rude, maybe you'll bully me in the future!" Rui'er reached out and knocked away the cuckoo's hand that was pinching her face, and whispered.
Cuckoo said in his heart: yes, you little brat, this kid has a big temper! What's wrong with pinching your face? said with a smile: "No, if you call me aunt, not only will I not bully you, but no one in the entire Pingyang City will bully you!" ”
Rui'er glanced at the cuckoo and said softly: "The people in Pingyang City don't mess with you, it's troublesome, and you also say how powerful you are?" ”
The cuckoo pouted and said sharply, "Who said that!" I ......"
Rui'er didn't listen to Du Juan at all, and put down a sentence, "Even I can see it, you are still proud!" Then he ran to Qin Xuan.
Rui'er went directly into Qin Xuan's arms, pointed at Du Chengming, and asked suspiciously, "Uncle, why is that grandfather's neck so thick, is it because he is sick?" ”
Qin Xuan suddenly said in his heart: Why did you forget this matter again! Turning his head, he hurriedly said to Du Xingwen: "Brother Du, Uncle Du, your neck is swollen, have you ever seen a doctor?" ”
Du Xingwen looked at Qin Xuan gratefully, and said, "Look, the doctor said that the anger is a bit big, and it won't get in the way!" ”
When Qin Xuan heard this, he knew that Du Xingwen didn't take the old man's illness seriously, and hurriedly said: "I once saw in an ancient book that this kind of neck swelling is actually a disease, if you don't pay attention to it, it will easily deteriorate and become serious, and at that time, the pain will be unbearable, and you can hardly move, talking, and eating are all problems." ”
When Du Xingwen heard this, he asked suspiciously: "No, the doctor said a few days ago that it was not in the way!" Is the estimation that Brother Qin is looking at a little too exaggerated? ”
Qin Xuan said in his heart: How is this too exaggerated condition? This is the conclusion of later scientific research! opened his mouth to persuade: "Brother Du, it's better to believe it or not, besides, the ancient books just say that eating more kelp and seaweed can make the swelling subside without taking medicine!" Qin Xuan said in his heart: If there is iodized salt, it will be good.
Du Xingwen thought for a while, then nodded and agreed: "Okay!" I turned around and asked my servants to buy some! ”
The cuckoo finally couldn't bear it and was snubbed by everyone. Seeing Li Zizheng drinking tea in a leisurely manner, he walked over, grinned, wanted to laugh and held back: "You are also left out, go, I'll take you out to play!" ”
Li Zizheng looked up and saw the cuckoo smiling, and muttered in his heart: This girl is so strange, take me out to play? I think it's going out to play with me! said coldly: "Don't go!" Seeing that the cuckoo was still smiling and staring at him, he continued awkwardly: "I think it's very interesting to listen to Childe!" ”
The cuckoo fox rolled his eyes suspiciously and said, "Yes, how do I think you are drinking tea here boringly!" ”
Li Zizheng listened to the twitching of his face, subconsciously turned his head, picked up the teacup and drank it violently.
Seeing this, the cuckoo secretly said in his heart: I said yes! poked his head in front of Li Zizheng and said with a smile: "If you don't go, be careful and turn around, I will tell my father about your indifference to me, and let him clean you up!" ”
Li Zizheng became more and more afraid, and when he saw the cuckoo's smile, he felt very sinister. "If you don't go, you won't die!"
Du Juan was so angry that he pointed at Li Zizheng, and said the word "you-" in a long time.
Everyone who was chatting energetically locked their eyes on the two.
Du Chengming glared at Du Juan sideways, and said slightly angrily: "Juan Er, don't be rude!" ”
Qin Xuan remembered Li Zizheng's schadenfreude about himself before, Yu Guang glanced at Li Zizheng, and said: "Old Du, don't blame Juan'er, go out more activities, it's good for your health!" ”
Du Chengming snorted coldly: "Hmph! Running away all day and night, going out for activities? I think it's going out to make trouble for me! ”
Du Juan wanted to start arguing, but Qin Xuan blurted out: "That's it, that-self-levy, you have nothing to do, it's better to accompany Juan Er out to relieve boredom!" ”
Li Zizheng gritted his teeth and stared at Qin Xuan, eager to swallow him. When Du Juan heard this, his opinion of Qin Xuan had greatly improved, and he looked at Li Zizheng and said happily: "That's it, accompany me out to relieve my boredom!" ”
Li Zizheng turned his head and looked at Du Huizhen with a pleading look. Du Huizhen realized in her heart and said with a smile: "Seeing that it is getting late, let's arrange a room for a few of us, wash it a little, and let's have a reunion dinner in a while!" Tomorrow, I will call myself to accompany Juan Er to have enough! ”
Li Zizheng saw that this level was about to pass, and hurriedly echoed: "That's it, I'm covered in sweat when I'm in a hurry, let's wash up first!" ”
Du Juan no longer insisted, and Qin Xuan stopped speaking. Du Xingwen arranged the rooms for Qin Xuan and the others one by one, and then arranged the reunion dinner in the evening.
Li Zizheng ran to Qin Xuan's room angrily. "Childe, why did you hurt me, let me accompany that little witch to relieve my boredom? I see that her boredom is relieved, and my little life is about to end! ”
Qin Xuan was happy in his heart: Hmph, who told you that you didn't know to help me at the time, and you put on a gloating look, and you got angry when you saw someone! put on an incomprehensible expression, and said in a gentle tone: "Self-enlisted, what do you say, Juan Er is also a little beauty, but her temperament is a little straight, so you will sacrifice your life to accompany the beauty, besides, who called Juan Er will propose to let you accompany her!" ”
Li Zizheng sat down on the chair and begged: "Son, you can do it, talk to that little witch, don't ask me to accompany her, okay?" Seeing Rui'er coming in, he happily pointed at Rui'er and said, "Let Rui'er go play with her!" ”
Hearing this, Rui'er walked straight to Qin Xuan, and said casually: "Do not do to others what you do not want to be done to yourself!" ”
