Chapter 30 Buying New Year's Goods

Zhou Meng came over and said: "Shopkeeper, we mountain men don't understand the things in the rivers and lakes, and we're causing you trouble!" With that, Zhou Meng took out a handful of broken silver from his arms and put it on the table, and continued: "Today's meal is two taels, and it is almost five taels here, and the extra ones will pay you for the broken chairs!" We will take this man away now, and we will not let him bring trouble upon you. ”

After Zhou Meng finished speaking, he beckoned Ye Xiaoming to go upstairs to the guest room to pack his things, and asked Lin Muya to look at Bai Mei below.

The shopkeeper looked at Zhou Meng and was a little dumbfounded, this was different from what he thought!

The shopkeeper turned out from behind the counter, took two quick steps, and grabbed Zhou Meng's arm: "Big brother, I didn't mean that, don't be busy yet!" ”

Anyway, Zhou Meng has also practiced kung fu, and he was careless for a while, and was grabbed by the old man's arm, he twitched, but he couldn't pull it, and his arm seemed to be caught by steel.

Zhou Meng's face changed, and his tone was not very good: "What is the shopkeeper trying to do?" ”

The shopkeeper also found that something was wrong, so he hurriedly let go of his hand and patted Zhou Meng's arm: "Big brother, don't get me wrong, I didn't mean that." You eat and stay in my store, you are my guest, no matter how afraid of the old man, I can't do the burial of the guests on a cold day, otherwise I will not open the house for 30 years, and it will be closed early! ”

The shopkeeper was good at observing words and feelings, and when he saw Zhou Meng listening to it, he continued: "The old man saw that the eldest brother was a sincere person who loved children, so he said a few more words. I have opened a shop here for more than 30 years, and I have seen many heroes in the mountains, who have a straightforward temperament, and have revenge and revenge, but they don't know much about the things on the rivers and lakes, and many of them have suffered losses and have nowhere to say. The old man was also afraid that the big brother would make the same mistake. You see how good these two children are, if you get into trouble with the Black Star Pavilion and hurt the two children because of such a trivial matter, then ......"

The shopkeeper shook his head and sighed.

Zhou Meng was said to his heart, and he hugged his fists and said: "You are always right, Zhou Meng thanks the shopkeeper for his kindness." What should the shopkeeper do about this? ”

The shopkeeper thought for a moment and said, "Actually, the old man heard clearly just now, and there is only a little dispute between you and others, not a deep hatred that shares the sky. This white eyebrow, I think he is also scary, and his kung fu is actually ordinary, otherwise he would not be hit by this kid all at once. According to me, let him go, as the saying goes: to fight mice, you should avoid the jade bottle, and this idle breath is mainly for the two children. ”

Zhou Meng was completely convinced, and he also knew that the government's attitude towards the disputes in the rivers and lakes was mostly blind and did not care much. This Bai Mei was arrested by the government, and at most he was beaten and it was over, after all, he cut off a chair here, and as for his attempted murder, if he didn't admit it, it would be very difficult to collect evidence, and he had a feud with him.

Ye Xiaoming heard it clearly next to him, and was very unhappy, and asked the shopkeeper: "You have thought about it a long time ago, right?" I asked you to find someone to help report the crime, your old man must not have sent anyone! ”

The shopkeeper laughed: "Hahaha, the little brother is laughing, how can you not go?" Although the little brother is young, he is not panicked, he is clever and capable, and he will become a big weapon in the future, and the old man can see people accurately. Let the little brother know that our Ruyiju never discounts to help the guests, and the people from the yamen will come in a while! Don't believe it, just wait and see. ”

Like the Hong Kong police, the ancient Yamen case-handling personnel came very late, and when they arrived at Ruyiju, the lobby was empty.

When the leader came in and saw it, he shouted: "Okay, you old man, and you reported a false case to deceive the official, hurry up and bring out the good wine and food in your store to pay respect, otherwise your Ruyi Residence will be demolished." ”

The shopkeeper smiled and clasped his fists to meet him: "Guan Zhutou, ashamed and ashamed, if you don't come to my store in a few days, I won't be down-to-earth, you are very busy, please don't come!" It's ready for you, it's the best in my store. Little Er, quickly pour wine for all the officials! ”

The Guan catcher waved his hand to the shopkeeper: "Junior Er, you are busy with your going, the brothers don't have to wait, they are more familiar here than my own family." You say that your shopkeeper is too cowardly, and he was scared like this after being stolen twice. There are a few brothers, which thief I don't have long eyes? ”

The shopkeeper whispered while pouring wine: "Guan Zhutou, you are a good official who worries about our people, so you are used to the nonsense of our shopkeeper, and if you change a bad temper, you will arrest him in the cell earlier." According to me, it's not good to invite you to come, you always report false cases to find trouble, it's really confused! ”

The shopkeeper shouted behind the counter: "Little Er, what are you talking nonsense about?" If you don't serve well, I'll deduct your wages! ”

"Hahaha, Xiao Er didn't say anything." Guan Zhutou smiled, raised his wine glass and said to everyone: "Brothers, you have worked hard today, you have done this glass!" ”

"It's not hard to work with the head!"

"It's done!"

"A toast!"

The servants drank a few glasses of wine, their voices were released, and the lobby of Ruyiju was lively again!

The next day, Zhou Meng took his two children out to buy something, he felt that this time the trip was not smooth, and planned to buy some New Year's goods in the morning, eat some lunch and go home early.

However, Zhou Meng underestimated the power of a woman who started to buy, buy, buy, buy, even if the woman had not grown up yet.

Daily necessities, kitchen items, clothes and cloths, artillery New Year paintings, but whenever she sees it, there is nothing she doesn't buy.

In the end, Ye Xiaoming, who had never shouted tired, couldn't bear it, looking at Xiao Ya, who was still in good spirits, Ye Xiaoming secretly said to Zhou Meng: "Uncle, don't bring Xiao Ya to buy anything in the future!" ”

Zhou Meng couldn't agree more: "I didn't know Xiaoya was so powerful!" ”

Lin Muya got over a shopping addiction, and finally showed mercy before dark and returned to Ruyiju with two followers.

The shopkeeper looked at the two people who were almost buried by the goods, and was stunned for a long time before he remembered to help, he took the two big burdens hanging around Ye Xiaoming's neck: "Little brother, I was mistaken, it turns out that you are in business, and it is really hard to help adults batch goods at such a young age." It's just that what kind of business are you doing, and you don't drive a car? ”

Ye Xiaoming responded indiscriminately, he no longer had the strength to care about other people's eyes.

On the third day, after breakfast, they were going home, Zhou Meng came to check out, and the shopkeeper smiled politely: "Big brother, we all understand that business is friendship, business is business, yesterday you didn't turn off the lights in a room all night, lit me three candles, I want to charge you an extra fifty copper coins for lamp oil, you have no opinion?" ”

It turned out that Lin Muya had been sorting out the things she had bought all night, otherwise she wouldn't have been able to take them home, the road they had to go home was high and dense, and they couldn't rent a carriage to pull them back.

Zhou Meng had nothing to say, so he handed over another fifty copper plates, and the more than 100 taels of silver sold were all used up, but it was a lot of effort to carry them back.

Zhou Meng picked up the basket that belonged to him and left without looking back. This back basket was specially arranged for him by Lin Muya, the largest and lightest one, except for a little effort when going out, it was very safe to carry.

The shopkeeper chased out the door, looked at the three mobile mountain bags of different sizes, and shouted: "Come again next time!" ”

Maybe someone waved his hand to him, but anyway, the shopkeeper didn't look at it, turned around and went in.
