Chapter 181: Durian

Bai Zhantang took Jiao Wen to one of the few upper rooms in the Tongfu Inn, although it was an upper room, it was actually a slightly larger room, and there was nothing else.

However, Jiao Wen is still the first time to stay in this kind of ancient place, so it still has a different flavor, but seriously, compared with the present, there are many advantages compared to the present, such as fresh air and a shiny night sky, but there are also some big shortcomings, the biggest one is that life is really a little inconvenient.

In such a large room, the only water turned out to be a pot of freshly boiled water, fortunately, Lao Bai also brought a bucket of well water after sending him here, otherwise it would really be useless.

Of course, the water is like this, and the drinking water is naturally not much better, all kinds of drinks are not to be thought about, but the tea is still a little, but, because he doesn't like to drink tea, Jiao Wen lives either to drink cold boiled water, or he can only drink well water.

Speaking of well water, I have to mention the ancient well in the backyard of Tongfu Inn, the water is warm in winter and cool in summer, and it has a little sweetness, killing the farmer three times in minutes, which makes Jiao Wen a little reminded of the well water in the place where he lived with his grandmother when he was a child, but unfortunately the well was filled in for some reasons, and every household changed their habit of using tap water.

The next morning, the rooster crowed to wake up the sleeping Jiao Wen, pushed open the window, and the cool air came to his face.

This point is considered to be Jiao Wen's early time, but the clerk in the store has been up early.

Because Tongfu Inn also sells breakfast, it is generally oil cakes and soy milk in the morning, and sometimes some steamed buns are made, but because of Li Dazui's craftsmanship, this steamed bun generally does not sell well.

Also getting up early was Yan Xiaoliu, who patrolled the streets, and walked over to the Tongfu Inn with a red bag in his hand.

"Shopkeeper Tong, are you there?" Yan Xiaoliu shook his way to the door and said.

"Ouch, isn't this Xiaoliu, I'm here so early, and the oil cake hasn't come out of the pot yet." Tong Xiangyu looked at Yan Xiaoliu and said.

"I'm not here to eat oil cakes today, I'm here to deliver something to you." Yan Xiaoliu sat on the bench, put the red ribbon on the table, took the pot and poured a bowl of tea and said.

"What is this?" Tong Xiangyu walked over and patted the red bag and said, it looks like it contains a boxy box, but I don't know what is in the box.

"This is what Lou Zhixian brought from his hometown in Guangdong and gave it to you as a gift." Yan Xiaoliu took a sip of tea and said, "It was supposed to be delivered by my master, but he went out early in the morning to hurry, so I brought it to you." ”

"That's a good feeling, I didn't expect Lou Zhixian to give gifts to you." Tong Xiangyu hugged that thing and said with a smile.

"Don't get me wrong, all merchants who meet the tax standards have this." Yan Xiaoliu looked at Tong Xiangyu's appearance and said.

"That's also a gift, Zhantang, take two oil cakes for Xiaoliu to eat on the way." Tong Xiangyu turned his head and said to Bai Zhantang, who was busy behind.

"Okay." Bai Zhantang replied and went to the back kitchen.

"No, no, why be so polite." Yan Xiaoliu said, but he didn't look ready to leave at all, this is basically like many children facing the red envelopes given by their elders, saying no, and opening their pockets more than anyone else.

While he was talking, Lao Bai had already come over and gave the wrapped oil cake to Yan Xiaoliu, who took it very happily, and then said, "Then you guys are busy, I'll go patrol the streets." ”

"Okay, Xiaoliu go slowly, come back next time." Bai Zhantang greeted him casually.

Then he posted it next to Tong Xiangyu, looked at the box of things and asked, "What is this thing?" ”

"I don't know, but it must be a good thing." Tong Xiangyu said and put his hand in, and as soon as he picked it up, he screamed out, and at the same time, the things in his hand also fell on the table.

"Oh my God, why does this thing have so many thorns?" Bai Zhantang looked at the fallen durian and said in amazement, "Eh, come and see, Lou Zhixian sent a hedgehog over." ”

After hearing Lao Bai's voice, a group of people gathered around and looked at this strange thing in a daze.

"Xiucai, you have knowledge, tell me what this is." Tong Xiangyu pointed to the durian on the table and said to Xiucai.

"The Son once said, what is known is known, and what is not known is not known, and it is also known." Lu Xiucai blinked and said.

"If you know, just say it." Tong Xiangyu urged.

"Wasn't that what I was about to say?" Lu Xiucai actually doesn't know what this thing is, but he doesn't know that it's no problem, and being able to make it up is his ability.

"The scientific name of this thing is Gendiao." Lu Xiucai pointed to the durian and said.

"Root carving?" Everyone asked puzzled.

"That's right, it's a work of art carved from the rhizomes of plants."

"Ah~ What kind of plant, can grow into such a rhizome." Guo Furong entered the set, looked at the durian and said with a sigh.

"I told you that you don't understand." Lu Xiucai didn't know what to say, because durian itself is not the rhizome of some plant.

"What do you mean by art?" Tong Xiangyu asked Lu Xiucai next.

"A work of art is a work created by an artist." Lu Xiucai bought time for his blind compilation.

"Nonsense, people are asking you what you mean by this." Bai Zhantang interjected next to him and said.

"This work of art, it is meant to express a benevolence."

"Who?!"

"A person who is not a man or a woman is a man who is loyal and filial." Lu Xiucai began to talk nonsense in a serious way, "You see, first of all, this thing is round, as the so-called heaven is round, which represents the meaning of heaven." ”

"Lao Tzu once said that heaven and earth are unkind and regard all things as dogs." Lu Xiucai said in a pose.

"Then it should be called unkind." Tong Xiangyu listened to Lu Xiucai's words, and the big mouths next to him also nodded in agreement.

"Isn't there still these burrs, it's not unkindness, it's negation of negation, that's benevolence." Lu Xiucai pointed to the thorns of the durian and said.

"This can be benevolent, and the tables, chairs and benches are even more benevolent!" Guo Furong listened to his theory and refuted it.

"Look at these thorns, they are sharp and hard, and if they are used as weapons, they will definitely be invincible in the world." Lu Xiucai carefully picked up the durian and said, "As the saying goes, benevolence is invincible, push it back, invincible is benevolence." ”

Speaking of which, Jiao Wen is very unhappy, durian is called an invincible weapon in the world? Where did you put my big bricks and benches?!

However, Tong Xiangyu was really fooled, "I think what you said is quite reasonable, since it was sent by the county magistrate, if it doesn't mean anything, what did he send it for." ”

"Maybe it's just a souvenir, just give it to us to satisfy our hunger." Guo Furong is the truth.

"You eat! You eat it now! Tong Xiangyu said that he was going to stuff the durian into Guo Furong's mouth.

When Guo Furong was instigated, the person who had eaten this thing appeared, "Shopkeeper Tong, you are really mistaken, this thing is still a kind of food." ”

Jiao Wen walked down from upstairs and said by the way, this time Lu Xiucai was a little embarrassed, Guo Furong also found his teammates in an instant, Tong Xiangyu faced Jiao Wen and didn't scold him like his own clerk, he glanced at durian twice and asked, "But how do you eat this thing?" ”

"This is a kind of fruit, called durian, and what you can eat is the flesh inside, which is a bit similar to watermelon." Jiao Wen said to everyone.

"Oh~ so delicious, I'll go open it." Li Dazui said and walked to the kitchen with a cloth and a durian, walked a few steps and turned his head to look at Lu Xiucai and said, "Xiucai, I'm going to cut off your artwork~"

"Well, I still have an account." Lu Xiucai said and moved to the counter.

"Cut, by the way, how did Jiao Wen sleep yesterday?" Bai Zhantang cut Lu Xiucai, who was fleeing, and then walked over and said to Jiao Wen.

"It's not bad, the air is clear, but the bed board is a little harder." Jiao Wen stretched and said.

"It's a little harder, but I feel harder and more comfortable, and I haven't slept at your place for most of the night." Bai Zhantang looked a little uncomfortable with the soft mattress, and said to Jiao Wen.

Just as they were about to discuss the issue of this hard bed and soft bed, Li Dazui ran out of the kitchen while screaming, still holding half a durian in his hand.

"Ahh It's ugly. Li Dazui put the durian on the table and said.

"Wouldn't it, so unlucky?" Tong Xiangyu said as he walked this way.

Jiao Wen looked at the few people who were ugly and said, "Don't worry, this thing is not broken, he just smells like this." ”

"Huh?" Several people were a little incredulous.

"It's like stinky dried tofu, it smells ugly, but it tastes good, you can try it." Jiao Wen said to Amway, the person next to him.

Everyone shook their heads and stepped back, looking scared.

"You guys really, do you have a small spoon, I'll eat it for you." Jiao Wen looked at them and said.

Li Dazui ran to the kitchen and got a small spoon for Jiao Wen.

Jiao Wen dug a full spoonful of durian and put it in his mouth, looking satisfied.

Looking at Jiao Wen's appearance, Tong Xiangyu also became curious, "Big mouth, go get a few more spoons, let's try it too." ”

A few people also liked the taste after carefully trying it, "I didn't expect this thing, it doesn't smell good, and it tastes pretty good." Li said with a big mouth.

"Big mouth, don't eat it patronizing, what about the other half?" Bai Zhantang licked the spoon and said.

"Next to the stove, I'll go get it." Li Dazui was about to leave when he was stopped by Tong Xiangyu.

"Wait, Big Mouth, why is this smell getting worse?"

"How do I know, but it's also Huo, the smell is getting heavier and heavier, Brother Wen, this thing still tastes after eating?" Li asked Jiao Wen with a big mouth.

"No, there shouldn't be, and the smell is too strong, I want to vomit when it's heavy." Jiao Wen fanned his nose and said.

"That's okay, I'll take it out first." Li Dazui thought about it, but he was still a little reluctant to let go of the half of the durian, and walked to the back kitchen.

"No, I can't stand it anymore, I'd better go out and breathe." Guo Furong covered her nose and said, and several people present also ran out at the same time.

Ten seconds later, Li Dazui rushed out while retching.

"Stink... The smell came from the kitchen, and it was even worse than the thatched house! He said to a few people.

"Wait! Big mouth, you won't cook the rest of the durian, right? Jiao Wen was a little frightened and said to Li Dazui.

"No... No. Li Dazui slowed down twice and continued, "I may have accidentally touched the durian into the oil pot..."

"Mother, you can't get this thing like this, it's no different from bombing Xiang like this!" Jiao Wen understood the current situation and said.

"What can I do, I still have to open the door to do business." Shopkeeper Tong was also anxious and said to Jiao Wen.

"Then there is only one way, which is to let one person get the durian out, and we will find a place to deal with it." Jiao Wen thought for a while and said.

"Big mouth, you caused something, you go!" In an instant, everyone pointed at Li Dazui and said.

"Don't don't, I'll go again, I guess I won't be able to eat for a few days!" Li Dazui said very resistantly.

When everyone was pushing, Yan Xiaoliu killed him, covered his nose and said to Tong Xiangyu, "I received a report, someone is using biological weapons here!" Who did it! ”

"That's him!" Li Dazui was pushed out by everyone.

"You, you, you go and deal with it!" Yan Xiaoliu said to Li Dazui, "It's really going to smoke me to death!" Are you breaking the law to make stinky tofu eggs? ”

"No, it's that durian ......" Li Da mouthed half of his words, and found that Yan Xiaoliu was glaring at him fiercely, and then he reacted, this thing was sent by Lou Zhixian.

"Okay, okay, it's my problem, what's the shopkeeper, can I ask you a question?" Li looked at Tong Xiangyu with tears in his eyes and said.

"What's the problem, you say." Tong Xiangyu replied.

"If I get injured inside, can it be considered a work injury?"

"Yes! What's the problem, the medical expenses are all out of Russia! ”

"Well, if I die inside, don't tell my mom, he's not well." Li Dazui continued to grind and said.

"Got it, go!" The crowd roared.

"Well, there's one more thing...... Yes......!!! Before Li Dazui finished speaking, he was kicked in by Bai Zhantang, "Go!" I don't have time to listen to you! ”

Ten or twenty seconds later, Li Dazui came out with the oil pot, "Get out of the way!" ”

After shouting, he immediately poured the contents of the pot at the door of the store, and then a foul smell rose to the sky, and Li Dazui was once again agitated and fell directly to the ground.

The people around are also scattered and fled for their lives.,This smell is really unbearable.,It's definitely going to be used to kill!!
