Chapter 75: Righteousness and Wealth Draining Others

"I'm not a local either, and I've only been here for a year since I moved to Dongfeng Town."

Su Qi accompanied Mu Yunmei to wander around the market, answering his questions absentmindedly and casually.

Fang was in a hurry for a while, and made a promise that should not be made, but now he was held by someone, in order not to change his surname, he had to agree to his request and accompany him to visit Dongfeng Town.

"Dongfeng Town is not big, from the east to the west is only a dozen miles away, except for a temple in the east of the town, there is a mountain in the west, but there is nothing fun."

"There's a mountain? How many birds and animals can there be? ”

Su Qi secretly wondered: Why does this guy have the same hobby as balls? "Many! There is also a tiger cave halfway up the mountain, which contains fierce insects, which have just bitten several people to death a few days ago. ”

She pretended to be careful, and Mu Yunmei was very interested when she heard this, and knocked her left palm with her right fist: "I have to go to explore another day!" ”

You're full, aren't you...... Su Qi rolled her eyes, but people were thinking with her: "What's delicious in the town?" ”

"Yes!" Speaking of eating, Su Qi became interested, and counted him with his fingers, "If you talk about decent, there is a gluttonous building on the Grand Cross Street, but I have been there to eat once, and I think it is expensive and not delicious." If you talk about the deliciousness of conscience, even if no one knows how to remember the restaurant, his Suzhou-style dim sum, Jinling xiaolongguan soup dumplings and duck blood vermicelli soup can be called the three musts. Su Qi swallowed his saliva when he said it, "If you talk about snacks, Wujiaqiaotou's shredded chicken wontons are the most popular, but if you want to eat, you have to get up early in the morning, and you can't eat it if you go late." ”

"Wonderful!" Mu Yunmei listened with great interest, but while she was greedy, she remembered something serious, "I heard that there is a Yuelai teahouse in the town, does Miss Su know?" ”

"Of course I know." Su Qi nodded again and again, "There is a storyteller Mr. Mo in that teahouse, and the story is very good, I often go to listen to it." ”

"That Mr. Mo ......" Mu Yunmei was about to ask, but Su Qi beside her was hit by someone, and he almost fell, so he hurriedly helped out, "It's okay, right?" ”

"It's okay, it's okay." Su Qi stood firm, turned around and pulled the little beggar who hit her and fell to the ground, "Why are you so careless?" Did you fall? ”

The little beggar, a girl of seven or eight years old, got up from the ground, stared timidly ahead with a pair of eyes, and muttered, "I didn't mean it, I really didn't mean it......"

Su Qi followed her gaze, only to see a chubby middle-aged woman in front of her, who was lifting the side of her skirt viciously, obviously, it was she who kicked the little beggar to the ground.

"Why not you? I really think it's just that you little Hanako did a good job! ”

The fat woman scolded in her mouth, raised her arm and made a gesture to hit the little beggar in the face, Su Qi subconsciously blocked the little beggar behind her, but saw a hand stretched out next to her and stopped the fat lady's arm.

"A gentleman doesn't move his hands." Mu Yunmei said politely, but there was no doubt in her eyes, "Madam, please respect yourself!" ”

The fat woman was stopped, and became more and more indignant: "This little Hanako tore up my aunt's baby new dress, how can it be just like that?!" ”

"I didn't mean to......" The little beggar was frightened, and there was a cry in his tone, "she stepped on my brother's hand first, and I pushed her in a hurry, and accidentally tore her ......"

Su Qi then looked to the side, and saw a little boy of three or four years old, also looking like a dirty beggar, sitting under the wall with his hands covered and crying.

Su Qi felt sad for a while, and wanted to say a fair word for the little beggar sister and brother: "Since you stepped on her brother's hand first, she accidentally tore your skirt behind, so you simply offset each other and don't care about each other, how about it?" ”

"It's a beautiful idea!" The fat woman didn't appreciate it at all, "The poor are cheap, how much is that little beast's hand worth?" My skirt, that's cut by Shu brocade! Do you understand Shu Jin? It was a brocade that had been transported from Shu to Saibei! The whole Dongfeng Town is the only one, and if you sell this little beast sister and brother, it's not enough to compensate me for this skirt! ”

That's too much of a bully! Su Qi was angry for a while, and was about to have a seizure, but was blocked by Mu Yunmei, and said to the fat woman with a three-point smile on her face: "Madame is reasonable, the so-called people are clothes and horses are saddles, and such a good skirt is worn on Madame, just like Mu Monkey and crown, brocade clothes travel at night, which complement each other very well." ”

Su Qi, who was behind him, almost laughed out loud when he heard this: This Mu Yunmei, who has the ability to scold people without dirty words, is really good.

However, the fat woman in front of her didn't hear it, but felt that a handsome man "praised" herself so much, and she was happy from the bottom of her heart: "This son can still speak!" Then the conversation changed, "But it's a fact that Hanako tore my skirt, so you can't just leave it at that!" ”

Su Qi's blood rose again: "Isn't it just a skirt, how much money will I compensate you for her!" ”

It's a big deal, girl, my ten taels of silver are used to do chivalrous and righteous deeds.

A sly look flashed in the fat woman's eyes: "My skirt was originally worth twenty taels of silver!" For the sake of this son, I will give you a discount," she stretched out a fat hand and shook it in front of Su Qi, "Fifteen taels!" No less! ”

"Fifteen taels?!" Su Qi couldn't help but blurt out, "Why don't you grab it?" ”

"If you can't afford it, you can't afford it!" The fat woman gave her a blank look, "What kind of hero?" ”

Seeing that the two were about to fight like cockfights again, Mu Yunmei hurriedly sandwiched them in the middle, and put one large and one small ingots of silver in the fat woman's hand, "It's not too much, it's not fifteen taels, Madame go slowly, don't look for the bad luck of this little beggar again." ”

The fat woman was obviously overjoyed, and immediately put the silver to her mouth and bit it, and walked away contentedly with her huge fat buttocks.

In vain, Su Qi looked embarrassed: "I was strong, but I let Mu Gongzi break the bank, how embarrassing is this?" ”

"It's okay, I'm chivalrous." Mu Yunmei said with a smile, "It also saves being recognized as a thief." ”

When he said this, Su Qi's face turned red for a while, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Otherwise, I'll accompany my son for ten taels of silver." ”

Mu Yunmei smiled at her with a reluctant look on her face, "No need, if the girl really feels sorry for it, why don't you accompany me tomorrow to eat the delicious food in the town, you lead the way and I will be the east, what does the girl think?" ”

Su Qi nodded busily: I can save ten taels of silver!

The next day, Mu Yunbai and Mu Yunmei sat in a corner of the lobby of the Yuelai Teahouse, drinking tea leisurely, and saw that the entire teahouse was full, and most of them came to listen to books.

After a while, I saw a shopkeeper come out of the back hall and said to the tea customers: "Everyone, Mr. Mo is ill today and cannot take the stage, please forgive me." ”

As he spoke, there was a voice of regret in the lobby.

"So unfortunate?" Mu Yunmei said in her mouth, but the person put down the tea bowl and stood up, "Second brother, I still have an appointment." ”

After that, he walked out of the teahouse with a smoke, leaving Mu Yunbai to look at his anxious monkey-like back and was a little stunned: This kid, threw his second brother down again?

There is an appointment...... He obviously came to Dongfeng Town yesterday, and he is not familiar with the place, what kind of appointment does he have?

In the inner hall of the Yuelai Teahouse, the fat hands of the shopkeeper of the rice balls were trembling uncontrollably.

"Sir, is that serious? The second and fifth children of the Mu family are here? He was afraid from the bottom of his heart: one Mu Yunsong was already very tricky, and now there were two living ancestors...... If these three people make a move, they can't overturn Dongfeng Town?

"I saw it when I just entered the door, and I'm sitting in the lobby of the teahouse right now." Mr. Mo drank tea leisurely, how could he look a little sick.

"In the opinion of the gentleman, why did the two of them come?"

"What else? Naturally, it's for their big brother. Mr. Mo's eyes flashed with a falcon look, and his face was black and white, "I'm afraid that Mu Yunsong's memory has revived and found the clue, so he managed to recruit the two brothers." ”

"Clue ......" The face of the shopkeeper of the rice balls trembled more and more, "Then wouldn't we ......?"

"Precarious!" Mr. Mo simply said for him, "I have missed good opportunities again and again, and I have not been able to kill Mu Yunsong under the best opportunity, and now I am on fire." ”

"Sir, you are calm!" The shopkeeper couldn't help but be annoyed, "Now you have an idea!" Otherwise, don't say that my life is at stake, I'm afraid that you won't be able to go well in front of the Lord! ”

Mr. Mo glanced at him coldly: "I naturally know that now you and I are grasshoppers tied to a rope." I have a plan, if I can succeed, it will be a bright future, just see if the soup shopkeeper has the guts! ”
