It's actually full, there is no private room for a long time, most of the people upstairs are very rich people, and it is common to have a drinking party with friends, or a few poems in Linjiang.

The shopkeeper raised his hand, wiped his sweat with his cuffs, looked embarrassed, his attitude was very good, and his tone was also very sincere and said let's come again tomorrow, but I'm hungry now, since I've come, there's no reason to go back on an empty stomach.

"I'm really sorry, two young ladies, you have seen it too, please go back, come back tomorrow morning, welcome to come next time. ”

"Oh. ”

Originally, I thought that if it was really full, then it would be okay to go out and eat casually, but behind us, a group of people came violently, led by a noble lady dressed in luxury and wearing many expensive headdresses on her head, which originally had nothing to do with me, but when I saw her face, I was immediately happy.

Isn't this the Jiuniang I hated to meet late?

I haven't drunk the wine last time, but now I really have the joy of meeting my old acquaintance in a foreign country. It's just that this meeting, she gave me a completely different impression from the last time, if the first time I met, she was approachable, then now the person standing in front of me can definitely be described as cold and glamorous, between the eyebrows and eyes are full of solemn anger, I don't know that I think she is here to catch the adulterer.

I didn't dare to act rashly, just stared blankly at her and a bunch of well-trained housekeepers and maids behind her, her whole behavior was very elegant, her identity should not be simple, and her family background would not be bad.

"Ah, why is she here, no, girl, you get out of the way, don't rush this lady, or she will skin you, and she hates people who are more beautiful than her, you stay away, I'll call the shopkeeper." ”

The words of the shopkeeper show that this woman is famous for her fierceness here, so is the face in the tavern in the morning the woman in front of her, she looked at me without reacting, and didn't even give me a look, she didn't know me, or did she forget me?

The shopkeeper is settling accounts behind the counter, holding an abacus, staring at the ledger with his eyes, and his fingers are scratching the abacus up and down.

"Shopkeeper, no, Mrs. Zhang is here again, it's over, I'll just say don't do Zhang Gongzi's business, shopkeeper, you just see the money, now it's okay, Mrs. Zhang comes here every day to make trouble, you said that Zhang Gongzi doesn't stay on Peony Street every day, just obsessed with poetry and wine, is it necessary for her to come to make trouble every day?"

"What's the panic, what's the hurry? When did the people finish the trouble, didn't they politely apologize to them? What should be compensated and what shouldn't be compensated were paid to them, besides, Mrs. Ren took care of her husband? What qualifications do you have to not allow people to come? Zhang Gongzi is a frequent visitor to them, and you can't bear to see Gongzi lose a customer like Zhang Gongzi because of a little thing?"

The shopkeeper stroked a handful of beards on his chin, squinted his shining eyes, and said that the head was the way, he didn't have a backache when he stood and spoke, he only needed to manage the accounts and collect the money, but he didn't need to work hard to configure the things in the restaurant, he only needed to buy things in, and arrange them, and the shopkeeper couldn't remember how many times he had purchased doors, windows, tables and chairs.

"Shopkeeper, then you won't show up this time?"

"If you don't come forward again, I'm afraid it's inappropriate, let's go, I'll meet her this time." ”

At this time, there are already a lot of people scattered on the first floor, maybe they are tired of watching the play tonight, and they are no longer surprised, and if they have time to delay here, it is better to go back to their respective homes, find their own mothers, and go home to sleep with their daughters-in-law.

But Mei Xiya and I, because of this woman's face, found a place to sit at this time, ordered a few special card dishes, and watched while eating. Now serve us food, the second little brother of this shop is not as troubled as the one in front, and he looks a little cold.

"Hey, little second brother, what's the origin of that woman? Why do you look so fierce and vicious. ”

He raised his eyes and looked at us, and then he didn't look at us, but bent over, lowered his head, and whispered:

"This is the young grandmother of the Liu family, the richest man in Jiancheng, her mother's family is one of the best embroidery villages in Jiancheng, her family has been doing this for generations, to her generation, because there are a few losers in the family, the family is almost squandered, and then began to separate, her family can be operated, and now it is the famous Huo family embroidery village, her father in order to climb the big tree of the Liu family, to ensure the long-term rule of his family, this no, he married his baby daughter to the Liu family's unsuccessful young master, this Miss Huo has been a person who has been amazing to the world since she was a child, proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and the female worker is also the best, she originally planned not to marry, in the future, he helped run his own embroidery village, but since marrying Young Master Liu, she has been separated from the family's business, just a husband and a child, but Young Master Liu, tsk, is not a tool at all, not only drunk on drinking all day long, composing poems, but also strange, and not addicted to women, and never went to Beijing to get a fame, just blindly soaked in the restaurant, well, there is a private room on the second floor is his exclusive, once I went in to see, the walls are full of poems made by this son, and the speech is also crazy, I don't know what to stimulate, this is a bitter Miss Huo, she has broken her heart over the years。 ”

He said a lot, and I probably knew that this Mrs. Liu could not be Jiu Niang.

I grabbed a handful of peanuts and threw them in my mouth one by one, rolled my eyes, and continued to ask:

"Hey, do you think there are two people in this world who look exactly the same?"

"Yes, this is called a twin, or a dragon and phoenix fetus, but compared to the festive dragon and phoenix fetus, twins are a sign of great evil, and twins can only live one person from ancient times to the present. ”

The shopkeeper knows a lot, and the folk do have this saying, and the twins have always been an ominous omen in their eyes. After a while, I saw that the middle-aged shopkeeper led the shopkeeper to come forward to apologize to the young grandmother of the Liu family, and the smiling face showed that the owner of this restaurant would be a man and did not bully others.

"Hahaha, the young grandmother is coming to our store, why is Liu Gongzi here again?"

He gave the shopkeeper behind him a look, and the shopkeeper stepped forward to look through the record book, then nodded and said:

"Yes, shopkeeper, Liu Gongzi has been on it for two days, but he just asked the little ones to send food in, and he hasn't seen Liu Gongzi come out. ”

"What? Didn't you confess last time, didn't Liu Gongzi be allowed to be here for more than a day? How do you do things? You can't do this little thing? Why did I pay you to do it?"

He made a gesture to teach the shopkeeper who bowed his head and was silent, and when he was teaching a bad lesson, the woman interrupted him. She raised her hand to slightly support the bead hairpin on her head, then crossed her hands and turned the jade bracelet on her wrist about a finger thick with one hand.

"Okay, I don't know the temper of my father-in-law, and ask the shopkeeper to take me back first. ”

"Oh, okay, young grandma here, please, it's been so hard for so many years. ”

I don't know who the owner behind this restaurant is, but the fact that the people under my command can be so cultivated means that this person will naturally not be bad at all. Ignoring these for now, seeing a group of people rushing up, I kept putting vegetables in my mouth, well, it's delicious.

This plate of cold pork tongue is definitely very suitable for this hot season, it turns out that he is the main dish of this restaurant in different seasons, it is really good, very thoughtful, no wonder the business is so successful, it seems that everything wants to succeed still needs a little means and methods.

Mei Xiya didn't know what was going on in the past two days, I didn't dare to ask, I didn't dare to say, just let her go.

"Hey, you say, why is this trip worth it? The beauties have seen it, the wine has tasted, and now the food has been eaten, and life should be the same, with wine, meat, and books, it is awesome. ”

Mei Xiya glanced at me lightly, and intently dipped a chopstick in the tea to draw circles on the table, but her eyes were staring at the storyteller over there.

Well, I haven't been able to turn my attention to the storyteller this day, but the storyteller in this big restaurant is really extraordinary, sitting behind a bookcase, holding a board in his hand, and from time to time he will take a picture of the shock, which is really fascinating.

At this time, he had just started a new story, and he had to brush the two whiskers on the side of his mouth and take a sip of wine before he spoke slowly.

"In the past, I heard that people after death are going to go into Lethe River to wash away the lead, fade away the mortal body, and then be summoned by the king of Hades to interrogate, calculate your grievances, your gains and losses, and then draw your name on the merit book to decide which one you will reincarnate in the next life. Meng Po soup is rumored to be a pot of 10,000-year-old soup that has never been broken, and the secret recipe for this soup is unknown, but the old people have passed down the necessary medicine to introduce Meng Po to shed a tear for each reincarnated ghost, but Meng Po is a ghost who refused to be reincarnated after the death of the tearless girl, and the person she wants to wait for will never be able to wait, and over time, she started a business there and sold Meng Po soup that can make people forget all the things that happened in life. ”

This kind of rotten street story, there is no one calling for change below, these people are listening to it with relish, I wonder if they have less knowledge or the charm of this storyteller is too great?

Even the female ghost next to me could listen to it mesmerizingly. On the contrary, my impression of Meng Po is another version, so these are clearly made up by him to attract listeners.

I stood up abruptly and said loudly:

"Mr. Storyteller, how is it that the version that this girl hears is different from what comes out of your mouth?"

I was standing on a wooden bench in a high position, and everyone's eyes were drawn to me, but seeing that I was a weak woman, these people were obviously unconvinced, and I interrupted their interest.

"Go down, what can you hear about the little girl? Don't be reckless, hurry up and go home and find someone to marry." ”

"Yes, yes, the shopkeeper came to get this person out, it's really disturbing, we are fascinated by it. ”

"Yes, get her out, Mr. Storyteller, wait a minute. ”

One by one, there were sighs, and all kinds of cries for me to go down. Mexia also came back to her senses to see my amazing move, and she stood up and tried to pull me down.

"Come down, don't go crazy, there are rumors in the world, why don't you clarify so much. ”

"You also know right, Meng Po is not a tearless girl as he said at all, and she is not a ghost waiting for her lover to stay at the bridge. ”
