Chapter 879: Happiness and Revenge
The noisy hawkers mingle with the laughter of fireworks women; The aroma of snacks such as sugar gourd, kebab and oily noodles is mixed with the smell of beef, sheep and pig dung; The rich vassal and elegant lords brought antiques and walked around with the mountain people who were covered in sweat and mud and went into the city to sell grainβthe north gate of Lingzhou was prosperous and dirty.
Although there are many people coming and going from the North Gate, after all, it is only such a large area, and it is easy to find out who has bullied Mr. Kang's family.
Hu Xianxian stared at a few thugs who were shouting and punching in a tavern, her eyes rolled, she took off the Taoist robe she was wearing in a secluded place and changed into a brown and black torn cotton jacket, and after wiping her face, she immediately became wrinkled, and she hunched her waist and walked towards the tavern.
"Huh...... Eh...... Masters, you haven't paid yet. The shopkeeper chased out of the tavern and stopped the gangsters who had just finished drinking and eating.
One of them, a tall man who looked like the leader, shoved the shopkeeper violently, "Are you looking for death from your grandmother?" I came to your tavern to save face, and I haven't let you give you a thank you gift, so you're embarrassed to ask for wine money? β
The shopkeeper had never heard such domineering words, and he fought with the leader with a little strength from his youth.
The gangsters are not moral, several people rushed over to beat the shopkeeper, seeing that his hair was pulled and both arms were twisted, the shopkeeper hurriedly hugged the jar wine and came out.
"Ladies and gentlemen, be merciful! He's new and ignorant, let him go. I beg you to let him go, and I will send you a jar of wine to make amends. β
The head "hehe" smiled, asked the younger brothers to let go of the shopkeeper, and was about to take over the wine jar, as if a whirlwind was blowing, and the wine jar actually fell into the hands of a sloppy old woman.
"Hey, good grandson, thank you for the good wine!" The old woman grinned toothlessly, "It's a pity that I'm too old to drink!" Well, this kid is good, and I've got it for you. β
The old woman handed the wine jar to the shopkeeper, but before she came back to her senses, she had already been dragged forward by her ears.
"Good grandson, my aunt and grandmother are hungry, take me to eat pig ears."
The little brothers chased after them and pulled their heads from the old woman's hands, and the head came back to their senses in pain, "Who is your grandmother?" Dare to be wild in front of the master? Ouch yo yo...... Don't drag it, you guys can help me get my ears out!" β
Under the stiff tugging, the old woman's hand loosened slightly, and the ears at the head finally got out of the sea of suffering, but they had become purple and swollen.
The old woman crossed her waist and roared fiercely: "Who am I? Bunnies, are you blind? Don't even know my aunt and grandmother? If I hadn't stopped you back then, your father and mother would have thrown you into the pit, how could you still have a good life at this time? β
The thugs exchanged glances, and after making sure that no one had such an aunt and grandmother, they all punched and kicked at the old woman.
The old woman, who seemed to be rickety, was extremely nimble, weaving around the fists and feet of several of them, not even letting them be next to each other.
"Rabbit cubs, dare to do something to your aunt and grandmother? Quack, look at how I teach you a few things for your father and mother! A feather duster suddenly appeared in the old woman's hand.
The screams rang out again and again, and the feather duster suddenly picked, barked, and swept like a golden gun in the hands of the old woman, and suddenly slashed, stabbed, and sharpened like a sword, so fast as lightning that the onlookers could not see clearly.
When the thugs were dizzy and wanted to run away, the feather duster in the old woman's hand became the most common action of the elders beating the children, and there was no fancy slapping on the buttocks.
Some gangsters subconsciously reach out to block, then their hands hurt; Others jumped to dodge and struck at their ankles; The big man at the head suffered the worst, and he was beaten all over his body.
This old woman is naturally Hu Xianxian, she has no spiritual power, she is afraid that they will not be beaten, if they are burdened with the debt of hurting the lives of mortals for no reason, so that the mood cannot be reconciled, it is not worth it.
Those gangsters cried and shouted for their mothers one by one, they had no power to resist, and they didn't dare to run away, they all knelt on the ground and kowtowed and begged for mercy.
Hu Xianxian didn't let them get up, nor did he beat and scold them anymore, and left quickly when they lowered their heads.
The next day, the gangsters were about to take a bone-setting medicine from You Fanglang for nothing, when a thin old man suddenly jumped out.
"Put it back for me! Obediently pay for medicine, don't lose your uncle's face! β
It was when the anger was not going well, and an uncle and grandfather came out to provoke them. However, they learned to be smarter, and after making eye contact with each other, they each took out their daggers and stabbed at the old man.
The old man seemed to have eyes behind his back, and he could nimble in dodging surrounded by several people, and even stuck out his tongue and made a grimace at them.
"You're so stupid! What are you doing to stab people with a dagger, don't get a few of you, you stab me, I stab you, all of them will be stabbed to death by your own people! Let my uncle teach you how to fight! β
Before the words fell, the old man already had a broom in his hand. The sweeping broom is like a horizontal heavenly painting halberd, the eyes are full of essence, the eyebrows are raised, and the righteousness is awe-inspiring towards a few gangsters!
The broom swept away the sand and stones, and the fierce wind blew the robes of the gangsters; The second broom swept his face and pierced his body, sweeping the gangsters one by one like garbage, leaving bloody traces; The broom swept the ground three times, and the messy and dirty things were gathered into a pile, so that the gangsters could carry the pile of garbage to the wasteland outside the city for landfill.
After three days, the gangsters took a short rest and went out to inquire about the sacredness of "aunt" and "uncle and grandfather". How could they be willing to be beaten, and asked about the background of the enemy, so that they could ask the more powerful gangster leaders to help them get angry.
While they were going from house to house, a well-dressed young man tapped his head on the head with the handle of a fan.
"Hey, you're looking for death, aren't you?" The leader touched the head that had been knocked on the bag and glared at the young man.
Judging from his experience, in winter, he still holds a folding fan, and this kind of pretentious son-in-law brother is the most incapable, so he secretly makes his eyes let the brothers besiege the son-in-law.
Who knew that Brother Gongzi looked close in front of him, but he couldn't get close to him, and as soon as he got close, he was bounced away by the invisible airflow, and the two hardest ones were shocked by the rebound force and smashed their butts into eight petals.
"What's wrong with you? Please get up, please get up, you don't have to make such a big salute when you see your uncle. Brother Gongzi smiled and went to help the person who fell, but they were so frightened that they rubbed back with their hands.
The gangster's face was distorted like a bitter gourd: "You, you said little uncle? Aunts, uncles, and uncles...... Wow wow......"
He suddenly burst into tears, knelt down and said with a handful of tears in his eyes: "Hero...... Spare us! To fight or kill...... Whining...... You make a condition, and we will do it! Whining...... Stop torturing us......"
Brother Gongzi pursed his lips and smiled a little girlishly, "It's so pitiful, why are you crying?" Get up, get up. β
Seeing that he didn't say anything, the gangster leader cried even more grief-stricken, just afraid that he would be punished by life rather than death.
Brother Gongzi'er frowned slightly, folded his folding fan and pointed at them: "You guys, do you still look like a gentleman?" Bully the soft and fear the hard things, get out of Lingzhou for me! No matter where you go in the future, you are not allowed to bully the good anymore, especially the doctor who saves the life, remember? If you dare to make another mistake, see it once and hit it once! β
The thugs hurriedly ran away, for fear that they would run slowly and be beaten again.
Of course, this boy is also Hu Xianxian, and after the gangsters ran away, they went to the Rejuvenation Pavilion to talk about these things to Liang Huiping's mother and son, they talked happily and laughed, and Kang Houpu walked in with a black face.
He asked Liang Huiping to take the silver, "Give me fifty taels, hurry up!" β
"What do you want so much money for? This little clinic can't make that much money in a month. Liang Huiping asked in a low voice.
"Why are you talking so much nonsense? I'm embarrassed to tell me that I can't make any money, who told you not to charge this lonely old woman for medicine, and to make crutches for free for the lame old man? On the first and fifteenth days of the new year, you still held free clinics to help the poor people, do you think you are a bodhisattva, do you care so much? β
After Kang Houpu finished complaining, he snatched the key in the hand of Liang Huiping, who was hesitating, and opened the cash box after going to the counter.
He pulled the loose silver and took a cursory look, "Why is it this, it's not thirty taels, are you hiding your private money?" β
"Ahem......" Hu Xianxian coughed lightly and handed two large silver ingots to Kang Houpu.
Thinking that she was a person who came to see the doctor, seeing her hand over the silver, Kang Houpu immediately accepted it, "It's good to pay the consultation fee in advance." Hehe, don't worry about more or less. β
"It's not a consultation fee, it's because I don't want to see a woman wronged."
Because Hu Xianxian was wearing men's clothes, Kang Houpu couldn't help but look her up and down when he heard this.
Liang Huiping wanted to snatch the silver in Kang Houpu's hand and return it to Hu Xianxian, but she was petite and thin and couldn't grab it, so she could only persuade Kang Houpu not to collect money indiscriminately, and not to go out to fool around.
With a face full of anger and pushed her, Kang Houpu scolded and scolded: "Lao Tzu doesn't care if you find a wild man, you still dare to take care of Lao Tzu?" β
"Don't care about that bit of silver." Hu Xianxian beckoned to Kang Wuxian to pull his mother, and said to Kang Houpu with a smile, "If you take my money, please tell me what you are doing with it." β
Kang Houpu had an idiotic smile on his face, "There is a new Qinger in Jinhualou, and he plays the piano well... Tsk, this song is only because it is in the sky, how many times can I hear it in the world? β
Hu Xianxian lowered his eyes and glanced at him, and when Kang Houpu was about to walk out, he stretched out his foot and hooked it, tripping him and falling into the mud.
"You, if you don't want to pay for money, just say it clearly, what are you doing with the tricks?" Kang Houpu rubbed his mouth and turned over half-sitting, and rubbed his legs again.
Liang Huiping wanted to help him, but was tightly held by Kang Wuxi, and Hu Xianxian also stopped her from going.
Hu Xianxian squatted next to Kang Houpu, "Do you want to know who I am?" My surname is Gu, my name is Yueshan, my family lives in Beihuang Province, and I am the only son who inherits the family property. β
She paused as she spoke, and said with a provocative smile: "The most important thing is that I am not married yet!" β
"The old mother of the family is very anxious, and there is no one to inherit the huge family business! I don't care about those silver mines, iron mines, forest farms, medicinal herb shops, fur shops or anything, my ancient family has practiced medicine for generations, and hanging pots to help the world is my business, and I take my guys out to sell medicinal herbs for another purpose,"
"If you can find a woman with a good look, a gentle temperament, and an understanding of medical skills, it will be really worth the trip."
"If I were like Miss Liang, it wouldn't be in vain for me to work hard and suffer a lot of hard work!"
"What Miss Liang? She is my wife, you have to call her Mrs. Kang, Sister-in-law Kang, and Kang Liang! β
"It's not...... She is not Young Master Gu...... She's, yes," Liang Huiping stammered anxiously.
Kang Wuxian answered the call smartly, and cooperated with Hu Xianxian and said: "Yes, he is not Young Master Gu, he is Uncle Gu!" β
"Uncle Gu, didn't you say that you were going to take us to Hongbin Building to eat delicious food? We're closing the store, so let's go early, right? β
"You go to your Jinhua Building, I don't plan to invite you."
Liang Huiping turned her head and ignored him, Kang Hou stomped his foot hard, and turned to leave.
