Chapter 118: Encounter
The grandfather of the pavilion chief of Wujiang Town has been a little depressed these days, first when the King of Huainan was sacrificing to the river, he suddenly encountered an assassin, but fortunately, His Royal Highness's guards were brave and protected the King of Huainan to escape from the mouth of the Wujiang River. Shortly after the departure of the King of Huainan, his sworn brother disappeared into thin air with an entire village. Just when the pavilion chief's grandfather was confused and didn't know what was going on, two thousand officers and soldiers came that night to surround his Wujiang Town.
The pavilion chief was dragged out of the bed by several soldiers and sent to the local government office. After being tried by several officials, the pavilion chief realized that these soldiers had already gone to the village chief of his sworn brother, and did not find anyone to search their town. The whole town was searched from house to house by these soldiers, and it was tossed and turned until the afternoon of the next day, when the officers and soldiers withdrew from the town and returned to their lives.
After sending off these officers and soldiers, the pavilion chief scolded the street and entered the town's restaurant. I ordered a meal and was about to drink two glasses to go to bad luck, when I saw a family of three coming over from outside the restaurant. The three of them looked like outsiders, and a man and a woman were also taking this seven or eight-year-old child. The two of them seemed to be angry, and the masters of the family ignored their women, and glared at them from time to time. But this angry little lady is a little interesting, the convex and backward flesh is wrapped tightly by the clothes, and the eyes of the pavilion chief can't be pulled out when he looks at it. Words in my heart: This little girl is really in the waves.
When the pavilion chief was enjoying it, the little lady outside glanced at him, and saw that this was a restaurant. Pulled his master's arm and said, "Boss, this is a restaurant." We really can't walk, and now it's time to eat, you take our mother and sister in to eat, and rest by the way. ”
"Eat restaurant...... Are you talking about living? The man's eyebrows stood up at that time, and he raised his hand to make a gesture to fight, which frightened the little lady and the child to hide back. Fortunately, her grandfather was just scaring and scaring her, and after seeing his mother-in-law dodging, he said hatefully: "How much money does Lao Tzu make to withstand such a defeat from you?" Don't you have dry food in your baggage? Can't you just find a restaurant to beg for a bowl of cold water and eat dry food, and you can......'t wait for a hot bite when you get to your mother's house," he said, he raised his slap again, and scolded the woman with a scare.
Only then did the pavilion chief understand that the two of them were going back to their parents' house with their children. But I've been in this town for decades, so why don't I remember that there is such a clever little daughter-in-law who married to another place. If you know that there is a little girl who can pinch out of water, can you still allow her to marry out of town?
Seeing that the voices of the men outside were getting louder and louder, the little ladies were holding the children, and tears were falling down. The pavilion chief pretended to be a good person and shouted at the three people outside the shop: "Why are you still beating your wife on the street?" Isn't it just a meal? Come in, I will do good deeds today, and what you eat and drink here will be counted in my account. Look at the one who scared this kid, poor ........"
The two people outside the restaurant were stunned for a moment, and the little ladies looked at the pavilion chief's knife-like gaze and looked straight into their own meat, and then blushed and hid behind their own masters.
"Come in, the Pavilion Chief's master is not a slanderer. Besides, with a few dollars on you, is it worth the pavilion chief's grandfather and me? Seeing that your children are pitiful, I will give you a wine and dinner. Speaking of this, the fat pavilion chief turned to the shopkeeper and said, "Tell the kitchen, four more dishes will require meat, and ten wheat cakes." Another pot...... Two pots...... I'm a good person to the end, and then I'll have a jar of wine. ”
Hearing that there was wine, the eyes of the master suddenly lit up, but the eyes of the pavilion chief were on the little lady, and he didn't find that the eyes of the seven or eight-year-old doll were brighter......
At that moment, these two people timidly entered the restaurant. The pavilion chief beckoned the family of three to sit at his own table, and then asked with a smile, don't look at this gentleman who is scolding his mother-in-law outside, sitting with the pavilion chief, he is still a little cowardly. The fat pavilion chief asked, and he replied. After a few words, the pavilion chief inquired that this family was not locals, and they planned to go to the county seat dozens of miles away to see the child's grandmother.
After a while, the man brought the food and drinks. After seeing a few meat dishes, the man swallowed vigorously. After waiting for the pavilion chief to say a few polite words, their family began to make tooth sacrifices.
The fat pavilion chief picked up his wine glass, just thinking about how to get this man drunk, and then do a good thing with this little girl. A few carriages suddenly stopped outside the restaurant, and then seven or eight people got out of the carriages. These people were all dressed as warlocks, starting with a gray-haired old man. The rest of the people gathered around the old man, turned around in place, looked around, and then entered the restaurant.
When the shopkeeper saw the guests, he greeted them with a smile on his face, put the two tables together, and beckoned them to sit here. Then he told them about the specialty dishes of the restaurant and waited for them to order.
"Don't be busy, we have prepared our own food, we will borrow your stove for use later, and we will make our own wine and rice." One of them, also dressed as a warlock, waved at the door. Then I saw two strong men coming down from the last carriage, two holding live chickens and ducks in their hands, fresh fruits and vegetables and other things into the restaurant.
When the shopkeeper was surprised, the person who spoke just now continued: "We don't need your cook's hands, we ......can make our own wine and rice." ”
After seeing the broken gold, the shopkeeper's eyes straightened. He carefully took this piece of broken gold in his hand, and after confirming that it was pure gold, he said with a somewhat tangled face, "Enough, enough." But the shop doesn't have that much money to find ......"
The old man sitting at the head smiled and said to the shopkeeper, "Who told you to find it?" Take them all, and the rest will be given to your girl's dowry. ”
How does this old guy know I still have a daughter? The idea of the shopkeeper was only fleeting. At the moment, he put away this piece of broken gold with a smile, and then Zhang Luo got up to boil water to cook tea for these uncles.
After watching these warlock-looking people come in, the Pavilion Chief frowned. He picked up the wine glass again and said to the two people opposite: "You husband and wife are out of the house, and it is fate for me to meet the pavilion chief." Today is all open to eat, not enough for the Pavilion Elder to add to you. It's not easy to go out with a child, brother, today you let go of the amount of drinking, and if you are drunk, your family will live with me. It's too late to leave tomorrow after waking up. ”
The man timidly picked up the wine glass, stammered a few polite words, and then drank the wine from the glass. When the fat pavilion chief saw it, he immediately poured him another glass, and was about to continue to persuade him to drink, when he suddenly heard an old voice at the table of several warlocks opposite: "So you don't know each other? This pavilion chief, what are you anxious about? It's all on your turf, and the couple are fish on the knife board...... It's fish anyway, so why not change to a bigger blade? ”
The pavilion chief's calculation was revealed, and his face suddenly turned red. However, the people on the other side were all dressed as warlocks, and they came with a few carriages, and they were all powerful people at first glance. Although the pavilion chief can't be provoked, in front of this little girl, how can he say a few words to support the scene.
Just as the Pavilion Elder was about to speak, the old warlock who had just spoken continued: "I can't imagine that there is such a beautiful woman in this poor and remote country. The man opposite, do you want to bring your wife and children over? If you come over and have a few drinks with the Warlock Grandpa, this is your ......" As he spoke, the old Warlock took out a piece of gold cake and threw it on the table.
At this time, the two people on the opposite side were already frightened and overwhelmed. The man glanced at the piece of gold cake, hesitated for a long time, and then said to his wife, "Go, you can't stay here......"
