Chapter 239: Celebration Banquet 1
Edamame glared at Dongdong and scolded: "Dead fatty, I said that you have been in estrus again recently, what are you doing with these jokes, do you think I don't have enough trouble now!" ā
Dongdong shrugged, threw the fruit in his hand into his mouth, chirped a few times, and found that it tasted good, so he reached out and grabbed a few more from the basin. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"I see that you've not been in a good mood lately, and I want to help you relax, don't you notice that I care about you at all."
Edamame rolled his eyes, picked up a few fruits and chewed them, "Less disgusting, as long as you don't cause me a little trouble, I'll be thankful." ā
A pot of fruit was swept away by the two of them, and finally felt a little full, edamame patted his stomach, leaned back in the chair and exhaled comfortably.
The villagers who passed by outside the courtyard all pretended to look at him casually, and there were many young girls, pulling their braids, secretly throwing flattering glances as they walked.
Dongdong lay on the chair, looked at his watch, pointed to a girl passing by outside the courtyard and said, "This sister paper, half an hour's work has already walked from the door five times, or you can go out and say hello." ā
Edamame closed his eyes and ignored him at all.
After more than two hours, the sky finally slowly darkened, and with a clattering sound, a dilapidated van stopped at the door, and Erhezi jumped out of the car with two bulging plastic bags.
Tao's mother hurriedly greeted her, and Erhezi glanced into the courtyard and found edamame sitting on a chair.
Erhezi hurriedly trotted over and apologized for what he said yesterday, in a sincere tone, and Edamame waved his hand, indicating that he didn't mind.
Erhezi was relieved to see that Edamame was so good at talking, Edamame is now a great benefactor in the village, and his ability is greater than that of a shaman, if he really hates himself, he feels scared when he thinks about it.
It just so happened that Edamame also wanted to know about the situation nearby, Tao Ziyi couldn't ask a name for himself outside all the year round, but he was okay now, so he could just ask Erhezi about it, so he sat down and talked.
Ersunozi is a native of the local, and he has been running black cars nearby, and he knows a lot of weird rumors, and it is rare for people to be interested, so he talked endlessly.
Edamame just listened, and didn't interject, and when Erhezi finished speaking, he found that nothing could be related to the fox fairy, and he was a little disappointed.
However, this is also in his expectation, since Tao Ziyi's ancestor is a nine-tailed fox fairy, in order to escape the world, he will definitely place his nest in the mountains, and it is unlikely that he will have communication with ordinary people, and even if there is, these ordinary people can't see it.
It seems that the only way to ask the shaman is to get useful clues from him.
It was getting dark soon, and several village cadres arrived one after another.
Taking advantage of the time when several village cadres came up to compliment, several women hurriedly cleaned up the table and then served the food.
Everyone sat down around a large round table, because the celebration banquet was set in Tao's house, and the village chief also called Tao's father and Tao Ziyi to accompany him, while Tao's mother was still busy working by the stove.
Knowing Edamame's ability, Dad Tao didn't dare to be as casual as yesterday, turned on the electric light in the yard, and then sat down, without saying a word, bowing his head and fiddling with a few peanuts in the bowl, with a restrained expression.
Edamame looked at the table full of dishes, and said with some embarrassment: "I'm really causing you trouble, in fact, just eat some casually......"
"No trouble! No hassle! Several village cadres hurriedly waved their hands, "If you kill those zombies, you will save our village, what is this table of food!" ā
A village cadre who looked to be in his sixties hesitated for a moment and said: "Actually, we don't hide it from our benefactors, we also know that one meal is not enough to repay the kindness, and we originally wanted to prepare a generous gift...... But our village is not on the tourist line, and there is no extra income, so everyone lives on a few acres of land, and in the past few months, you know, you can't even grow anything in the field......"
Edamame nodded, and just wanted to say something, another village cadre followed up and said: "But don't worry, benefactor, we are not the kind of people who don't repay our kindness, but now the money in the village has been cheated away by that magic stick, as long as the money is returned, we will definitely send it to you immediately." ā
Edamame waved his hand, "It's just a trivial matter, forget about the money, you have also put a lot of thought into this meal, so let's take it as a reward." ā
The village cadre said: "The benefactor has great ability, this may be a small matter for you, but it is a big matter of life and death for our village!" Please don't refuse! ā
Edamame scratched his head, a little embarrassed, Dongdong hurriedly said: "Since others are so sincere, let's take it......"
"Pay attention to the words, does this have anything to do with you?" Edamame glared at him.
Dongdong sneered and said, "It's okay, I'm not your assistant?" ā
Edamame rolled his eyes, "Come on! Other people's assistants are all helping, but your uncle is dragging his feet! ā
Dongdong was so thick-skinned that he didn't have anything to say, he wasn't angry at all, he said with a smile: "I don't want to hold back, but you don't want to let you teach me a few techniques, what can I do." ā
"Holy! Do you blame me for your feelings? ā
Maodou scolded, no longer arguing with Dongdong, seeing that the village cadres were about to speak again, he hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Don't mention the matter of money, if you really have the heart, I just want to ask you for help." ā
When the village cadres heard this, they looked at each other, and one of them hesitated and said: "The benefactor has instructions, of course we will help, but we are all ordinary people, and we are afraid of delaying the benefactor's business." ā
Edamame smiled and told him about inquiring about the fox fairy, although there was no hope, but it was always good to have a few more people to help.
When several village cadres heard this, they all made a difficulty, scratched their ears and cheeks and thought for a long time, and suddenly slapped their thighs and shouted: "I remember!" Some time ago, I heard that when Li Lao Er went up the mountain, he encountered a white fox with four tails, which scared him miserably, thinking that he had run into a monster, and quickly knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
It's strange to say, the fox didn't even run, circled around him twice, and suddenly turned into a man in white, telling him that this was the territory of the fox fairy, and told him to leave quickly, and he was not allowed to come again in the future, this incident scared Li Lao Er and didn't dare to go up the mountain for several months! ā
Several other village cadres glanced at each other and wondered: "When did this happen, why don't we know?" ā
The village cadre hesitated and said: "Li Lao Er didn't say anything about this, I also drank with him once, he only said it after he was drunk, and after waking up, he repeatedly told me not to say it, so as not to retaliate from the monsters, huh...... It seems to have been a few years ago, and it has been a few months, and I didn't care about it at first, but I remembered it when I heard my benefactor ask about it with a smile, and I don't know if it has anything to do with it. ā
Hearing what he said, everyone else laughed and shook their heads.
"I almost thought it was true, it turned out to be wine, how can this be taken seriously."
"That's it, you said that Li Lao Er, I know, I have to drink two catties every day, and there are few times when I am sober, how can you believe his words."
"Haha, I also remembered when you said this, I remember that Li Lao Er was drunk during the Mid-Autumn Festival once, and he yelled that he wanted to marry Chang'e as his wife, and then he was beaten by his wife, and his nose and face were swollen for several days."
Everyone present thought that they had heard a joke and shook their heads in disbelief, only Tao Ziyi noticed that Edamame's eyes suddenly lit up.
