Chapter 164
Coincidentally, as soon as Abba Jiang Bai looked up, he saw two big men hurrying over from the street outside, dressed in green clothes and short clothes, although the weather was very hot, but wrapped in green cloth around the trouser legs, the two big men stood in front of the fish shop one after the other, looked up at the door, and then looked inside, and the big man behind whispered; "Let's go, go in and have a look."
The two big men raised their legs and entered the fish shop, and Jiang Bai's father hurriedly stepped forward, accompanied by a smiling face, and said; "Guest officer, buy live fish, I have just fished it from the river, there are many goods today, there are sea bass, crucian carp, bighead carp and grass carp, the two guest officers choose arbitrarily in the fish pond, the one you like, I will catch that one for you."
The two big men glanced at each other, as if they hadn't made up their minds yet, whether to buy or not, taking advantage of this, Jiang Bai Abba began to carefully look at the appearance of these two people, he found that these two big men didn't seem to be locals, but a bit like the Kansai big man, a big man with a red and black face, a big mouth, staring at a pair of triangular eyes, showing a fierce light, I don't know if it's because of the heat, or he was born with this habit, I saw that the buttons of his jacket are obviously fresher than other places, obviously, it is formed by not tying buttons for a long time, The man was open, revealing his thick black chest hair, and he looked vicious.
Another big man, is also very distinctive, the pimple on the chest and arms is one after another, although the eyes are a little smaller, when looking at people, they shoot out two fine lights, as if they can penetrate the human body, this big man also has the most eye-catching place, that is, there is a long oblique scar at the corner of his mouth, however, his mouth looks very deflated, the cheeks are attached to the gums, when he opens his mouth to speak, he does not see the front teeth, it is obvious that his teeth are all gone.
When these two people saw that Abba Jiangbai asked them to choose the live fish in the fish pond, they came to the live fish pond and stopped, and then looked at the fish pond, and then the big man with a scar on the corner of his mouth and holding his mouth said; "The fish is alive and fresh enough, how much is a pound?"
Jiang Bai replied with a smile; "A penny."
The scarred man asked again; "Who is the owner of this fish shop?"
Jiang Bai's Abba replied immediately; "I am, I am."
"How many guys are hired in the store?"
"Hire two."
"Oh, what about people?"
"Help unload the boat on the dock by the river," Jiang Bai's father replied like a stream, and the two big men looked at each other again.
"Boss, shopkeeper, I'm in trouble, weigh me two crucian carp, I want, I want stewed soup to drink."
I don't know when, behind these two big men stood an old lady with a peachwood cane, full of white hair, hunched over, panting when she spoke, as if she had just run a long way, more like she was not enough to breathe.
Hearing the sound, the two big men turned around and saw a sick old lady standing behind them, and immediately turned their heads again, and Abba Jiangbai stood behind the fish pond and hurriedly greeted him; "Okay, you come forward, the one in the photo, I'll give you the one you always fish."
The two big men stood in front of the old lady, did not let or hide, and the old lady behind was good-natured, so she heard her pant and say; "No, don't worry, let them pick first."
hiss, another panting, then a big inhale, and by the time Abba Jiang Bai looked at the old lady again, she was already squatting against the wall with a cane.
The old lady squatted down, and the two big men had no intention of leaving immediately, so Jiang Bai had no choice but to talk and say; "Ask the two guest officers to pick the fish."
The big man with a slanted scar at the corner of his mouth looked at the big man who never spoke, the big man still didn't squeak, and suddenly raised his hand, and the moment he raised his hand, the pool immediately splashed a foot-high wave, and with the waves, one of the largest bass in the pool somehow jumped out of the water and stuck tightly to the palm of the big man's hand.
Crackling and fluttering, the perch shook its tail and swung its body, shaking the water droplets on its body, and landed on the face of the big man, the big man didn't blink his eyes, his hand was still raised, but the fish was no longer swinging, but it was still sticking to the palm of the big man's hand.
At this time, the big man with a scar at the corner of his mouth spoke; "Hurry up and bring Ma Lian."
Abba Jiangbai, who was already stunned, relieved himself and agreed first; "Yes," then picked up Ma Lian on the edge of the fish pond, and looked at the live fish that was sucked up by the big man, and he didn't know what to do, but unexpectedly, the big man with a scar on his mouth stretched out the Ma Lian in Jiang Bai's hand, aimed at the gills of the fish, and suddenly threw it, and the soft Ma Lian actually penetrated the gills of the fish and circled along the big man's fingers.
The corner of the big man who stretched out his hand to suck the fish grinned slightly, which was considered happy, and then used his other hand to pick up the live fish that had been put on Ma Lian, and walked away, followed by the big man, when he walked to the door, he suddenly shook his hand, and the sound of whizzing and tearing the air immediately came from the house, and then, Jiang Bai's Abba exclaimed: "Oh no, why is my fish dead?" ”
Hearing the shouting, the old lady, who was squatting on the edge of the wall and on crutches, stood up tremblingly, took small steps, came to the fish pond, looked into the fish pond, and saw that there were five dead fish of different sizes floating in the fish pond at this time, and the heads of the dead fish were still gurgling with blood, and the water in the fish pond was dyed red.
Jiang Bai Abba was stunned, opened his mouth but couldn't speak, but the panting old lady pointed to the dead fish in the pool and said; "Shopkeeper, you still don't thank others, that's why they buy you fish money?"
"Who gave me the money to buy fish?"
Jiang Bai Abba didn't believe it, looked down at the fish pond, and the old lady pointed to the fish head of a grass carp that had been turned over and floated on it; "Don't you see, isn't that five-baht coin set on the head of the fish?"
"Ah," Jiang Bai's father exclaimed, then picked up a dead fish, looked at it carefully, and sure enough, there was a five-baht coin stuck in the fish's head.
Jiang Bai's father took the five-baht coin, put the dead fish in the basin, then fished out all the dead fish in the pond, plucked the five baht coins on their heads one by one, and then counted them, it happened to be five, and said in his mouth; "It's better not to give money, kill five fish, that one is more and that is less, really, it's too domineering."
At this moment, Xiaoyue walked in in and asked when she saw Jiang Bai's Abba; "Abba, don't be busy in the morning!"
Jiang Bai Abba said; "What time is this, it's still morning, have you eaten, I brought you food from home, you can go to the back room and have a bite."
"Hey," Xiaoyue said yes and was about to go to the back room, but as soon as he took a step, he saw a dead fish in the tub, so he stopped and asked; "Abba, why are there so many dead fish?"
Jiang Bai's Abba sighed softly and said; "I'm telling you, you don't want to show around, just came in two big men, looked at it for a long time, and asked for a long time, when leaving, caught a big bass empty-handed, took it and left, I was about to call them for money, but unexpectedly, but I heard a whooshing sound, and then the five fish died, the result was that the old lady in front of me saw that the fish was shot over the five baht money to kill, really, it is not good to give money, what kind of prestige!"
Speaking of this, Abba Jiang Bai looked at the old lady who was still standing in front of the fish pond and said; "I said this old lady, you have been here for a long time, I have patronized and answered them, and I will treat you slowly, I will pick the big one and catch two live crucian carp for you."
The old lady standing in front of the pool, listened to Jiang Bai's words, didn't say yes, didn't say no, just ahhh "Otherwise, don't buy crucian carp for your old man, these five fish have just died, and we will give them to you for free, but you can't eat so many fish alone, I think you still clean up these five dead fish here first, stew them for us, and then you take one, what do you think!"
Abba Jiang Bai felt that it was inappropriate when he heard Xiaoyue's words, and hurriedly said; "I can't help it, I can't help it, how old is this old lady, don't let the old man serve us."
The old lady standing on the edge of the fish pond still didn't move, and she didn't say yes or no, so Abba Jiang Bai had to say again; "Old lady, if you don't dislike it, just pick the big one and take one, we will give it to you for free, and you don't have to clean up the fish here. Look at it! ”
The voice fell, and the old lady standing on the edge of the fish pond spoke, but this time she did not pant or tremble, but spoke in a crisp voice; "Then I'll clean up the fish first, how about we eat braised fish in a while?"
Xiaoyue said; "Okay, you clean up the fish, cook, and I'll change the water in the fish pond."
It wasn't until this kung fu that Abba Jiangbai reacted, but he didn't say it, but muttered in his heart, this ghost girl.
At this moment, two more people, a man and a woman, walked in from outside the door, and Abba Jiang Bai was just about to step forward to say hello, but unexpectedly, these two people saw Xiaoyue and the old lady and immediately said; "How did you come back earlier than we did?"
Jiang Bai Abba finally figured out what was going on, and he said to the four people in the room; "Grandma asked me to bring you a clay pot of white rice, if you are not hungry, you can stew the fish and eat it, if you are hungry, you can take a bite first."
Qiaofeng, who was still dressed as a woman, took it and said; "It's good to have fish to eat, it's not bad for this time."
Jiang Bai, who had already understood what was going on, said; "I think we're still doing as usual, Xiaoyue stays in front as a buddy, it's better for you to go back and hide."
The old lady was dressed up by Jiang Bai, she knew that Abba already knew their identities, and if she pretended to be fake, he immediately picked up the wooden basin containing the fish and said; "Alright, Abba, the three of us will go to the back room, and if any more serious fish buyers come to the store, you should be careful."
