Chapter 57: There is nothing to be desired in the world, how to exchange for jade silk (5)
"A jar of pickles, what did you count, you put out the fire, but you have made a great contribution, my brother doesn't know how to thank you!" Hu San'er said busily.
I hesitated, pointed to the pickle jar, and asked, "I don't know what is pickled in the pickle jar of Brother Hu San'er?" ”
Hu San'er was stunned for a moment, and then smiled again: "Could it be, you also heard about my pickling of human flesh?" In that case, just take a look. As he spoke, he opened the lid of a pickle jar, and saw that it was indeed a white radish cut off inside.
I hesitated in my heart, the fat white baby just now, could it be that I was panicked for a while, could I have seen it wrong?
Hu San'er hurriedly said: "You are really frightened, and now the fire has been extinguished, it's hard for you." ”
I hurriedly said that I was not welcome, left the dumplings, and went home by myself, Hu San'er wanted to send me, I hurriedly waved my hand and said: "The plum vegetables have not been able to go, and they have made a mess, but let Hu San'er's brother clean up the ...... by himself."
"Might as well be!" Hu San'er waved his hand: "If something like this happened today, it's too late to thank you, another day, Hu San'er's brother will go to buy some good fabrics to thank you." ”
I hurriedly excused myself a few words, and when I came home, my father and mother saw me and asked me what was going on, I said what happened, and said that I had a headache from the smoke, and I didn't wait for my father and mother to ask more, and I hurried back to the room to rest, lying on the bed, but my heart was overturned, and the fat white baby was really my mistake? But why did it disappear in a blink of an eye? In the rest of the jars, it is clear that they are all genuine white radish, and they have seen it with their own eyes.
I tossed and turned on the bed, thinking, although hearing is false, seeing is believing, but I also wonder if I have seen my eyes, if this kind of thing is told to the dragon god, in case it is also the same as the old lady who keeps saying that she saw the child's corpse to ridicule people, but it will be very bad, the dragon god likes to laugh at others, and when he seized such an opportunity, he didn't know how to ridicule me. Dai Zhou
After thinking about it, I suddenly remembered Li Qitang, he not only has the skill of catching demons, but also is gentle and polite, and he is approachable, he will not laugh at me, I made up my mind, I decided to meet him tomorrow on Ziyuchai Street and discuss it with him.
The next day was the day of the offering to the dragon well, I packed up the sacrificial offerings, and went to the dragon shrine, as soon as I went out, the sister-in-law of Na Leqin saw me, and hurriedly stopped the work in her hand, and said in a loud voice: "Mei Cai, I heard Hu San'er say, thank you for saving this shop yesterday, otherwise, the consequences will be unimaginable." ”
I smiled and said, "Sister-in-law Leqin is serious, it's just a coincidence, and Mei Cai is also happy to be able to make a contribution." ”
Sister-in-law Leqin nodded again and again: "What a good boy, sister-in-law really likes you, today I pickled green cucumber pickles, sister-in-law made hand-rolled noodles, and made the toppings the most delicious, do you want to try it?" Bian couldn't help but say and pulled me in.
I saw that the fat and tender green cucumber was dyed into a sauce color by the marinade, exuding the flavor of marinade, and when I took a bite, it was sour, sweet and fresh, and it was really delicious.
Hu San'er was not in the store, so I asked casually: "Sister-in-law Leqin, I don't know where Hu San'er's brother has gone?" The store is so prosperous, but my sister-in-law can't be busy. ”
Le Qin's sister-in-law smiled: "I probably went to buy vegetables, and the price of vegetables in spring is still expensive, so I have to choose carefully." "Iron-willed ghosts
I nodded, looking at the various pickles in the store with wooden lattices, fragrant and colorful, remembering yesterday's events, I couldn't help but ask sideways: "Sister-in-law Leqin, why did there be rumors of pickles with human flesh in this shop a while ago, but it really scared people." ”
Sister-in-law Leqin smiled: "Who knows who chewed the root of the tongue, but fortunately, the rumors have subsided now, and nothing is more important than buying and selling." ”
I nodded again and again, and said, "Xu is white radish is really too much like a baby, and even the plum cabbage was almost wrong yesterday." ”
Le Qin's sister-in-law smiled and said: "There must be a fire, you are already flustered in your heart, and you are wrong for a while, and there are also some." If you really use human flesh to pickle pickles, I will be the first to know, although your brother Hu San'er said that he used a secret recipe to pickle pickles, but he didn't hide it from me, if it was really so bloody, how could I, a woman, come to help? Is it to help wash and chop vegetables, or to help be an executioner! ”
Looking at Leqin's sister-in-law's hearty appearance, I became more and more suspicious that I had taken a look away.
Waiting to enter the Dragon God Temple, unexpectedly, Longjing was not in the Dragon God Temple, only the melon slices were lonely and watchful, looking bored, combing their bright green feathers with an orange mouth.
I hurriedly asked, "Melon slices, why can't you see the dragon god today?" ”
Gua Pian said: "The Dragon God dislikes playing cards with Gua Pian and is not enjoyable, so he went to the casino." ”
"Huh?" This dragon god, not to say that the day is full of opportunities, busy mediating the chaos of the Three Realms, sent me to visit around, looking for clues, he is good, even went to gamble with mortals. The strongest soldier king who runs rampant in the city
Gua Pian smiled: "Silly roe deer, don't be angry, the dragon god has his own reason for the dragon god." ”
As he was talking, Long Jing came back from the outside in high spirits, saw me, and said with a smile: "Oh, it's really a casino proud, and the offering is also proud, just won a sum, and then I saw the stupid roe deer come to send the offerings again, today is the sesame dumplings, wine-stuffed rice balls, as well as mung bean cakes, rose cakes?" It's improvised, and it's counted. ”
I really can't guess what the big reason is for this dragon god who is proficient in eating, drinking, and having fun, and is lazy to the bone marrow, but his nose is really effective, and he has never said anything wrong.
After thinking about it, no matter what happened to the dragon god, there was no room for me to put the beak of a little girl who ran errands, so I was busy putting the offerings in place, so I went to fetch water and change the flowers for the offerings.
Long Jing stretched out his hand and grabbed a piece of mung bean cake, and looked at me suspiciously: "Silly roe deer, your eyes today are dodging, flashing, and awkward to look at, could it be that you have something on your mind?" ”
I was taken aback, and thought to myself, the dragon god knows everything, should I tell him what I have seen and heard? If he ridiculed Mei Cai, I was a dragon god messenger, and I actually regarded radish as a baby, but I really had no face.
Long Jing squinted his peach blossom eyes slightly: "Oh, my family has a female first-grown up, could it be that you are thinking about the cultivator family, Li Qitang with some fairy bones?" ”
"Huh?" The pot in my hand was still pouring water into the bottle, so I was stunned: "Could it be that the Dragon God also knows Li Qitang's son?" ”
Melon Pian shouted: "It's overflowing!" It's overflowing! I looked down and saw that there was already a mountain of water on the offering table, and I hurriedly looked for something to wipe it up.
