Chapter 45: Luban's Secrets

Finally arrived at Suzhou, a thousand-year-old city, it is really a city with high water and green willow banks, and there are people in Xiaoqiao Zhouwang, all of whom say that Kyoto is in the east and west markets, and the goods are shipped out of Suzhou and Hangzhou. Drink, this place is worthy of being the water town in the south of the Yangtze River, not only the scenery is beautiful, the climate is pleasant, but also the products are abundant, the transportation is convenient, so the vendors gather, it is lively and extraordinary.

In addition, Suzhou is also a place for talented people and beautiful women, perhaps the water and soil are too beautiful, and the people raised are also so soft and dexterous. Liu Rui's eyes felt that they were not enough, and it was very strange to see anything, "It's so lively here, I don't know how to eat." ”

Liu Cheng smiled bitterly: "There are also a lot of patterns to eat here, and they are very distinctive. ”

Once they find an inn to settle down and settle their horses, Liu Cheng takes them out into the streets, ready to find a restaurant for a big meal.

The two of them wanted to taste everything they saw, and Liu Cheng and Xiaohua Mao also ate with them, and when they came to a good restaurant, several people didn't plan to go in, and they were hesitating when they stood under the restaurant.

Suddenly, I heard a noisy shouting in the restaurant, and I saw a dirty old man being kicked out by the guys in the store.

"Take your dirty hands away, it's not that I don't pay, why drive me out, the dog looks down on people. ”

"You old man, you dare to scold, I'm dirty or you're dirty, look at your clothes, you've been occupying your position for more than an hour, just order a pot of tea, we're a restaurant, what do you mean by always occupying the table. Let everyone judge"

Liu Cheng saw that this was not a master, he was a little old, but his voice and temper were still the same.

"Master, master. I'm Liu Cheng!"

The old man was stunned for a moment, and then showed a smile on his face, "Stinky boy, it's been several years, and I haven't come to see the master." Isn't it about to forget the master? ”

"Look at what you said, master, didn't I come? After Liu Cheng finished speaking, he handed a shopkeeper a tael of silver, "Come, pick a good seat, I want to invite the master to have a good meal." ”

The guys in the store immediately changed their faces when they saw it, and respectfully invited a few of them to a private room on the second floor, but Master Liu Cheng didn't do it, so he had to pick a window seat in the hall just now. Everyone had to rely on him.

Although it is the height of the second floor, it can be seen far from the eye, because in the past, it was basically square, and there were not many second or third floors.

Master Liu Cheng stood by the window and looked down, then leaned against the window and sat down. "Who are you two children?"

"Master, this is my goddaughter Fluttershy and my godson Liu Rui, come and call Grandpa Jiang. Liu Cheng hurriedly introduced.

The old man Jiang was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "You scared me, I said that you haven't seen you for a few years, why are there two more babies of this size, it seems that they are all hard-working orphans, come, come and let grandpa see, oops, grandpa is so poor now, and there is no meeting gift, wait a while to go back to the fishing village, grandpa will give you a good thing." ”

Fluttershy stepped forward, saluted Old Man Jiang, and whispered, "Hello Second Uncle, I'm Fluttershy, Zhao Yuwei of the Zhao family, do you remember, I often come to your place to play." ”

Old man Jiang froze for a moment, then immediately jumped on the chair and then on the window frame, "You're really Fluttershy, what are you doing here, but the island owner sent you." ”

The master's strange behavior really confused Liu Cheng, "Master, what's wrong with you." How could the master be so scared to hear Fluttershy's name?

"Second Uncle Jiang, I'm really Fluttershy, you're happy to see me, why are you scared like this. Fluttershy is confused.

"I've been hiding in Tibet for all these years, but I was still found by you, and I also took an apprentice, say, what do you want, I just ask you to let go of my stupid daughter, I die, how will she live in the future. ”

"Second Uncle Jiang, the hunt and killing order was banned as early as the second year at that time, why don't you know, the island master subdued all the rebels, and did not investigate any past grievances, why it has been almost twenty years, and you haven't gotten any news. ”

When Liu Cheng heard it, this peach blossom world is not very peaceful, why is there so much chaos.

When Old Man Jiang heard this, he jumped back to his seat, the gaffe just now was indeed a little embarrassing, but fortunately, at this time, there were only two tables of people eating on the second floor, but those people were also talking about it, as if they were laughing at this crazy old man.

Liu Cheng whispers a brief account of how he and Fluttershy met.

"I'll just say that my apprentice won't betray me, so the Peach Blossom World has suffered a catastrophe after all. Hey, Fluttershy, you used to play with my little flower when you were a kid, and you were so tall back then, and now that you're really grown, I can't even recognize you. He measured it with his hand, and then scratched his hair, which looked a little unkempt due to his infrequent care. "Then you have to eat something good when you get together today, and you can bring some to your sister when you go back, come, order some food." ”

Liu Rui said in surprise: "Grandpa Jiang, did your family also have a little flower cat before?" As he spoke, he held up the little flower in his hand to Old Man Jiang.

"Xiaohua is your Grandpa Jiang's daughter, children can't speak, don't worry about Second Uncle Jiang. Fluttershy says.

"It doesn't matter, child, grandpa didn't have a cat, but my family now has a big yellow dog, named Ngawang. Old man Jiang is very happy now, a heart disease that has been hanging in his heart for twenty years has finally been lifted. He hugged Liu Rui to his lap, "How old are you this year, do you want grandpa to make you a kite to play with." ”

After a while, a large table of wine and food was placed, "Everyone move chopsticks and eat, I'm hungry, don't let this dish go cold, it's good to eat it hot, come and come, eat vegetables." Seeing that everyone didn't move their chopsticks, Old Man Jiang thought that everyone was waiting for him, an elder, to speak, so he had to start first. While eating, I looked back downstairs from time to time, as if I was waiting for someone.

"I said that you guys don't eat at all, since you're all your own family, you don't have to be so restrained, Liu Cheng, you don't usually eat like this, why are you embarrassed in front of Fluttershy. ”

"No, master, we're eating, but our appetite hasn't been good lately. Liu Cheng explained.

"We just ate a snack on the road, and we're not hungry yet. Liu Rui said with a smile.

When the old man Jiang heard this, this is for me alone, is my apprentice getting rich or is he going to save face for my master, how much has he ordered, he was just about to say something.

At this time, I heard the second shopkeeper downstairs shouting, "Three upstairs, please, there is a seat on the second floor." "I could only hear the stairs clattering, like a big man going upstairs.

I saw a tall man with a face full of flesh and dexterity walking upstairs, just like a black iron tower, followed by two people in dark clothes, also with a murderous face, one of them was a one-eyed dragon.

The three of them don't look like good people, and although they don't see any weapons on them, they are also terrifying, and Liu Rui pinchs Fluttershy's thigh, and Fluttershy adds a ball to his mouth, prompting him not to talk too much.

The three of them also picked a table seat by the window, "Xiao Er goes to tea", the big man like the black iron tower shouted, the voice was as strong as a copper bell, and the ears were buzzing, and everyone's eyes involuntarily turned to him, it seems that not only is a muscle, but this internal force is also very good.

"Here, guest officer, this is tea, this is the recipe, you order slowly. Xiao Er knew that these three were not easy to mess with, so he hurriedly came to greet them.

"Big brother, you order first. The big man respectfully handed the recipe to the one-eyed dragon.

At this time, two more people went upstairs, a man and a woman, looking like a natural pair, a pair of ground matches, both of them have jet-black hair, pink skin, big eyes are bright, wearing very particular, blue and white embroidered silk brocade clothes, each holding an ivory folding fan, especially the jade pendant in the man's waist is priceless, at a glance you know that it is a rich child, the two directly entered the private room.

Then four more people came upstairs, all of them looking like craftsmen, and carrying the tools of carpenter's work, and for a time the upstairs was full.

Old man Jiang didn't say anything at this time, while drinking and eating, he pricked up his ears to listen to the tables around him, and felt that something might happen here today.

Sure enough, after a while, the entire restaurant was filled with strange guests, except for Liu Cheng's table, which was like a family eating, and the rest of the people didn't look like ordinary people.

This old man Jiang, while chatting with Liu Cheng and Xiaodie, while eating slowly, directly consumed until the sun set in the west, Liu Rui said: "I'm hungry again, watching Grandpa Jiang eat, it's so boring, I want to eat too." ”

Fluttershy and Liu Cheng also feel a little hungry, so they order a few more dishes and continue eating with Old Man Jiang. Upstairs, it seemed that all the later guests were not in a hurry to leave, and Liu Cheng could see that everyone seemed to be waiting for something.

I heard someone say, "Coming, coming." ”

Many people are looking out of the window, and Old Man Jiang is no exception, craned his neck to look out like others.

There seemed to be a donkey barking downstairs, and after a while, I could only hear the stairs rattling slowly, with a wonderful jade collision sound, and a big beauty slowly walked up downstairs.

I saw her white gauze and pink lining, red silk and green clothes, a pair of red knotted ropes hanging down from the ribbon in her waist, and a string of jade pendants on each rope, it was the sound of this jade pendant that made a ding dong, its sound was crisp and wonderful, making people feel fresh and pure when they listened to it, and felt that the world was so beautiful.

If you want to ask how beautiful this woman is, I can only say how many vicissitudes of life in the world can there be such a beautiful woman, listen to the jade pendant, and I am willing to read your life's face, even if it is just one side, it is worth a thousand gold.

She is so beautiful that even Liu Cheng can look at her straight. Even Liu Rui forgot to eat, and as soon as the chopsticks were loosened, a piece of chicken fell into Xiaohua's mouth.

"You've been waiting for a long time", before the words fell, I saw a well-dressed old man suddenly appear behind this beautiful woman and clasp his fist to everyone upstairs.
