Chapter 188: Two Little Guesses
When the old man of the Ye family recovered his head, the brother squatted on the threshold of the small teahouse next to the hotel.
Ruyi Zen Master still has that dignified and serious appearance, wearing a warm suit and a robe and tie, with a leather pocket hanging from his waist, and two shiny steel knives in his pocket.
Looking at the victim again, Bai Hongtao was wearing a dark green coat and a shearling hat, and he was about 1.9 meters tall, a head taller than Mr. Ye.
Looking closely at Mr. Hongtao's facial features, his face is lean, his cheekbones are very high, his eyes are small and godless, his nose bridge is high and he looks backbone, a pair of attractive ears, thin lips and a big mouth.
- It's the appearance of a skinny monkey.
Mr. Ye looked at the groom's face with a depressed look, his mouth, nose and mouthpiece rushed out of the drunken smell of alcohol, and he spit out two crazy words when he had nothing to do, and he didn't know what the situation was.
He tugged at the Zen master's suit and whispered to each other.
"What's the matter with this groom? What's going on? Can Baidu? β
If he scratches his big bald head, he also looks confused.
"I don't know ......"
Well, let's ask for it yourself.
Mr. Ye thought so, and came to Bai Hongtao to say hello.
"Brother?"
Bai Hongtao perked up: "Hey! Brother! β
Ye Bei was taken aback, in his soul eradication career, he had never recognized a brother with such high efficiency.
Sounds like a good talk, right?
But......
According to the process of marriage, the identity of the matchmaker must be clarified first.
"It's all Tianshu's own brothers, brother, listen up, my surname is Ye, my name is Ye Bei, and I am the matchmaker arranged by Tianshu for you to help you change the door post and carry the sedan chair."
Bai Hongtao smacked his lips, as if he was savoring the wine in his mouth.
"Uh-huh!"
Is this a promise?
Ye Bei couldn't take care of it so much, and for the commission fee of more than 400,000 yuan, he posted it with a self-familiar attitude.
"Brother Bai, let's talk about it, is this secret marriage Chinese or Western? Want to wear a dress or a riding jacket? β
When he heard the word [Secret Marriage], Bai Hongtao's face changed, and his originally depressed expression was slightly moved.
"Don't deal with it!"
As soon as these words came out, Ye Beixin wanted to be bad.
"What's wrong?"
Bai Hongtao muttered: "Where can I deal with it?" If you want to think about firewood, rice, oil and salt, if you don't have the smell of wine, you will be angry, and you will be angry, brother, I am still the little overlord of the silver sword?! β
Mr. Ye opened his mouth slightly, maybe he didn't understand the meaning of the white groom's words too much.
- Dude, what's your situation?
"It's a dark marriage...... A husband and wife separated from the daughter of the Meng family......" Mr. Ye hurriedly explained: "This Meng Nanke is dead, so he will be named a husband and wife, and he will not even have a marriage certificate." Hey, besides, if you two want to talk about the Civil Affairs Bureau, you won't send it, brother, what do you want? β
"Phew!" Bai Hongtao muttered, "What do you want to say?" Want to sleep! β
After that, the old brother took out the iron gourd, drank it after a few sips of wine, and shook the gourd, listening to the crisp sound of steel balls scribing from the gourd, as if there was an iron ball hidden in the gourd, which could mark the water level with the sound.
The old brother nodded, and finally made sure that he had finished drinking, and then leaned on the threshold and fell asleep without saying a word.
Without waiting for Mr. Ye to ask more, after ten seconds of effort, Bai Hongtao was extremely tired and had already begun to snore like thunder.
This time Ye Bei is even more confused.
"What's going on!?"
He touched the head of the Zen master who had already coiled out the pulp, and he was puzzled.
Why don't you just get married? Why did the old brother pop out of his mouth [firewood, rice, oil and salt]?
Looking at the drunken appearance of the old brother, is he talking nonsense or the truth?
It's okay if it's nonsense...... Tomorrow, when my brother wakes up, I can still persuade him.
If my brother is telling the truth, something won't be right......
How is it written on the mission statement?
The bride [Meng Nanke] has passed away, and there is no record of this person in the registered spiritual disaster report. It is also said that there are so many capable people in Tianshu, and there is no news of the soul calling and shouting.
Either the bride is reincarnated, or ...... She wasn't dead at all, she was still alive and quiet somewhere.
Ye Bei covered his chin and pondered, let's wait for Brother Bai to sober up and ask clearly.
Ye Bei shouted: "Like a master." β
The Zen master perked up: "Oh! Is there something wrong with Mr. Ye? β
Ye Bei instructed: "Look at this brother, don't let him run away, I'll go back to the hotel and sleep, and wait until I get up early tomorrow." β
The Zen master remembered the incident of cutting off Mr. Ye's head just now, felt guilty, and replied in a deep voice.
"Good!"
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
Eight o'clock in the morning the next morning.
Ye Bei came to the door of the teahouse again, but saw that the Zen master Ruyi was so anxious that his forehead was full of sweat.
Ye Bei asked, "Didn't you look at it?" β
Ruyi Zen Master nodded, his expression was aggrieved.
"I squinted for a while, and squinted for less than a minute!"
Ye Bei sighed.
Every time I give Ruyi a task, it seems that none of them are reliable.
He didn't care too much, Bai Hongtao is from the town, where can he go when he returns to his hometown this time?
If you want to say that the groom is really running away, it doesn't matter if you don't do this task, let Tianshu do a good job in the groom's ideological work first, and then do a good job in the bride's census and then make it difficult for him Mr. Ye.
Thinking so, Ye Bei didn't bother to look for it. led the Zen master and Qiqi to the snack stall next door, asked for three pancakes and fruits, returned to the teahouse, chose a random place, prepared to take a break, drank tea and ate cakes, and notified the brothers who were looking for people in Tianshu to start working.
As soon as the three of them sat down, they heard two or three shouts coming from the upper seat at the entrance of the teahouse.
A shocking wooden shot fell.
The tea cup fell on the table, and there was a loud sound.
The storyteller is talking about the old chapters of ancient times, and his tone is subdued and abrupt, which is very powerful.
It's just that the sound sounds familiar.
"Isn't this the old brother?" Ye Bei shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands, leading the two around him to the entrance of the hall: "People didn't run." β
When I arrived at the big table at the entrance of the hall, there were not many people listening to the book, about a dozen people were scattered, and Bai Hongtao on the stage shook his head, and there was a look.
The army green coat lined the tall and thin body bones, and after taking off the sheared hat, the face looked more symmetrical, not as abrupt as the big hat with a thin face.
"I know what the future holds, and listen to what I will say next time...... Ming'er gets up early, and the neighborhood appreciates some wine money. β
Bai Hongtao said, and one by one the tea guests swept the QR code on the big table at the entrance of the hall and gave money to the storyteller.
Ye Bei hurriedly stepped up and swiped a [666] yuan red envelope for his old brother.
At that time, Qi Qi's eyes were straight, and he once had the illusion that a slave nouveau riche was a ghost.
Ye Bei privately rubbed the cat master's face, and rubbed Ah Poor's shocked expression to a little more normal.
"It's a fuss, this is called brushing favorability, and I can't bear to let the child catch the wolf. 400,000 Na...... What is this money? β
The guests gradually dispersed, and Brother Bai Hongtao put the things on the big table in order and walked off the stage.
Ye Beigang wanted to go up to say hello - how did Brother Bai not want to answer a word, he asked for two packs of big front door at the front desk of the teahouse, held a cigarette, and walked out of the door with both hands in his arms.
How could Ye Bei be willing to pay more than 600 yuan to drift, followed all the way, and followed Bai Hongtao to the hotel in the town.
The [hotel] here is a real hotel, not a store for accommodation.
That is, the place where grain and bran wine are sold.
Bai Hongtao asked the boss to pour a pot of sorghum wine into the iron gourd. After doing this, he hurried out and happened to bump into Mr. Ye.
When the two met, they couldn't help but say goodbye and began to rush to the road.
Bai Hongtao to the left, Ye Bei also to the left.
Bai Hongtao to the right, Ye Bei also to the right.
This thin monkey is tall and has a big stride, so he can't bypass Ye Bei.
Hear him ask, "What are you doing?" Brother? β
Ye Bei replied: "Brother, I ...... last night"
Brother Bai replied, "I forgot." β
Ye Bei was very innocent: "Why did you forget?" How long has it been? Less than five hours? Brother, you said that you want to revolt in Liangshan with my brother and me! β
The Zen master listened in a daze, and he didn't know where Mr. Ye's ability to talk nonsense came from.
Brother Bai said frankly: "It's a big dream, don't you forget it when you wake up." β
"Brother said forget it?" Ye Bei suddenly brought in a Zen master: "I promise, the second brother can't agree either, we are not only the Liangshan uprising, but also the Taoyuan Three Alliances, what can we do if the troubled times of the Three Kingdoms are gone?" β
Ruyi Zen Master: "??? β
Bai Hongtao returned to that depressed mental state, his little eyes were blank, and he looked at the little girl behind Ye Bei.
"This sister, with you? Ready to take a corner of Lin Daiyu? Sickly? β
The dialect at the end of the Jinmen called the strange woman sister.
If you are old, call big sister.
If you are younger than yourself, call the little sister.
If you shout "sister", it's different, and it means something.
Ye Bei simply pulled the master over.
"That's right! Let's all work together, and the whole Journey to the West is combined. β
Bai Hongtao asked: "Then which of you two is Wujing and who is Wuneng?" β
- Ye Bei was a little embarrassed.
After arriving in the north, his accent was a little biased, and his thinking was easily deviated.
He hurriedly got back to business.
"The matter of [Secret Marriage], brother, look ......"
Bai Hongtao interrupted: "Don't deal with it." β
"What's wrong?" Mr. Ye complained: "Brother is reasonable, I have swiped 666 for you." Is the gift money red envelope not enough? Or do I have a problem with my attitude? β
Bai Hongtao grimaced: "You try to brush 999 again?" β
Before the voice fell, the Alipay transfer was completed.
Bai Hongtao shook his hand: "I won't deal with it if I turn it six times!" β
Ye Bei was blown up behind his back.
In my heart, I shouted that the traitor cheated money!
The face still has to be served.
"Uncle, ......"
Bai Hongtao: "Who is your uncle?" β
Ye Bei: "Brother, do you look down on the marriage of the Meng family?" β
Bai Hongtao: "No. β
Ye Bei asked again: "Then you don't like Miss Meng Nanke?" β
Bai Hongtao was impatient: "Where is Nanke's matter, it's complicated to say, I don't bother to pay attention to you." β
After saying that, he walked out, but was blocked in the door by Ye Bei, and froze for a while, about to stretch out his hand to hit someone.
"Get out of the way! I'll cut you if you block the road again! β
Ye Bei discussed in a good voice.
"Don't say it's complicated, no matter how complicated Nan Ke is, can it be more complicated than Conan? I read the entire manga from beginning to end! Come, you can speak slowly, my colleague, I try to be a little bit of Maori Kogoro and definitely be a qualified listener. β
Ten minutes later.
Ye Bei found a quiet pavilion at the end of Changgang Park.
The four of them sat down, Hongtao changed his previous restraint, and the whole person was in a lot of spirits.
It seems that in front of his colleagues in Tianshu, he is the proud groom of the spring breeze, and in the teahouse hotel, he is just a homeless man who tells stories to earn money for wine.
As soon as Ye Bei sat down, he poured tea and water for Brother Bai.
He asked: "Just now in the store, why is Tao Taozi so restrained and autistic?" β
Tao Taozi?
Bai Hongtao is a real person, and he doesn't pay attention to those strange names. As soon as he stretched out his hand, the etiquette of the rivers and lakes was a set.
"Didn't ask?"
Ye Bei: "Ye Bei, Mr. Tea." β
"Tea tea." Tao Taozi read it like this, "Do you want to ha, I'm a poor storyteller, I want to let the guests know that they are related to a wealthy family, or a secret marriage, is it a shame?" Is there a shame in it? Am I missing face or money? The dignified Jiaodong Silver Sword Little Overlord, want to go to the sugar daddy to eat soft rice? Food or dead man's money? β
Lack of face or lack of money?
Ye Bei said bluntly: "It seems that they are all lacking." β
Eating soft rice?
Ye Bei said bluntly: "The soft rice is delicious!" β
Dead man's money?
Ye Bei asked: "Miss Meng Nanke, did you know your brother once?" β
"It's awareness." Speaking of this, Bai Hongtao became energetic and became a little nervous: "It's a good friend who grew up together." β
Ye Bei asked, "You are eleven years older than her." β
Bai Hongtao: "So it's two little guesses, and they grew up together." β
Ye Bei: "What do you mean by Tao Taozi's words?" β
Bai Hongtao explained in a simple and complex, straightforward and story-filled sentence.
"I was in high school and she was in kindergarten. I was in high school, she was in elementary school, I was in high school, she was in junior high school, I was in high school, she was in high school. β
Ruyi Zen Master couldn't help but sigh: "Sure enough, it's a piece of ...... that grew up."
"You think so too, I watched her grow up little by little, like a wife." Tao Taozi is seriously looking for a sense of identity.
Rutai...... Too?
It seems that the title of [Ruyi Shitai] is not strong enough, and Brother Bai added overlapping words privately.
Cha Chazi then asked, "After high school?"
"Don't do it later, that's it, I have to talk about it in detail." Tao Taozi became more and more energetic the more he spoke, drank a sip of sorghum wine, the blood on his face left a red glow on his cheeks, and he smashed his mouth again, spitting out a little heart.
"When I was in high school, I was twenty-five or sixteen. has been defeated repeatedly in front of the threshold of the college entrance examination, and has been defeated again and again, in fact, not for anything else, but to wait for Ake. β
Cha Chazi: "Then you are really infatuated." β
Tao Taozi boasted to himself: "It's not blowing with you, brother, I have always been very single-minded, and I am also a hero, is Jiaodong Silver Sword Xiaobawang joking joking with you?" Say beauty! All love heroes! β
Cha Chazi echoed: "Yes, yes, what you said is." β
"In the stadium, on the side of the golden runway, I still remember that I sat side by side with Ake on the table tennis table......" Tao Taozi's eyes gradually had light, and from the turbid confusion, she revealed a pure and innocent look: "I told her about my heroic deeds, for fear that she didn't know that her object was a hero of the world, she told me about physical chemistry, for fear that my object would not be able to finish my life, my thoughts were very naΓ―ve, and her expression was very realistic." β
Qi Qi asked at the right time: "Which kind of realistic?" β
Tao Taozi: "It's all true." β
Cha Chazi praised the bride: "What a person! What a girl. It can also help you make up for your classes, and maybe even your kidneys! β
Tao Taozi waved his hand and asked Cha Cha Zi to shut up.
He went on to say, "I like her very much, yes, very much. β
He was afraid that he wouldn't be able to tell what he liked.
Shaking the iron gourd in his hand, he took out the big front door, and crushed the cigarettes.
"The kind of person who doesn't smoke or drink."
From his dirty coat, he took out the military ID card of the border guard, as well as Tianshu's certificates.
From [Tianshu], [Tianji], [Tiantong], [Tianqi], [Tianliang] to [Breaking the Army].
Administration, intelligence agencies, logistics departments, technical technology, civil engineering, armed operations.
- He served in these places.
"From not knowing anything, to being admitted to university, I like ......"
He was afraid that he would not be able to catch up with this [Monnan Ke], and he would become Conan in his dream.
"She went to art school, her family is rich, she has a music dream, she wants to be a soul singer, and she lives separately from me. I was in my college dorm room, and it was her who I was talking about when I slept. I'm afraid that she won't look down on me, and I ran away with a rich and beautiful little white face, if I can't find her, it's over, I think, I can only die in her hands if I want to die in this life. β
Mr. Ye and his entourage were moved.
Unexpectedly, the layman in front of me, who smokes and drinks well, once had an extraordinary madness about love.
Tao Taozi finished saying [like].
He began to say "no dealing" again.
"Three years ago, when I was thirty-three, it was an eventful time. I've been using my fake identity as a high school and college student, sleeping during the day and secretly working for Tianshu at night - she's twenty-two years old, just graduated from college, unlike me, I can see ghosts, she can't, although the Meng family has dealings with Tianshu, they are just business partners, and their children will never know what they shouldn't know. β
Tao Taozi unscrewed the wine jug, drank all the tea of Cha Cha Zi, and refilled a cup of sorghum brew for Cha Cha Zi.
"During Ake's internship, we lost contact, and her family said she died. But I don't believe it...... I went crazy and wanted to go to her, and Tianshu also said that she was indeed dead. β
Cha Cha picked up the wine glass, recalled his wife's admonition, and put the wine back again.
Tao Taozi doesn't care, the guests don't admit it, just take it yourself and drink it.
"In the past few years, I can dream of her, and I dreamed of her last night - really, very realistically."
Qi Qi asked at the right time: "Which one is realistic?"
The thirty-six-year-old greasy middle-aged Tao Taozi replied without blushing and without a heartbeat.
"It's all true!"
Ye Bei: "You...... Mourn. β
"That's not right! Not like that! Bai Hongtao blew his nose, raised his head and drank the wine, "No one knows where Ake is, but I know ......"
"βshe lives in my dreams."
