Chapter 598: Peer

After listening to Xiao Yu's joke questioning, the friends in the live broadcast room suddenly boiled-

"The noble goddess is actually going to be arched by a mortal, can you bear it!"

"The cliff can't bear it, no matter how you look at Liu Yanchang, he is a talentless and virtuous person, do you know what the poem he wrote to the Three Holy Mothers looks like? -- Red, red, green, and green are a god, clay sculpture and wood carving gold are pretended, and if there is a three-point gas in the throat, it is worthy of being the same bed! ”

"What a mess of this stuff, it's not even as good as limericks, and this baby's nonsense on the spot is better than him. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"That's right, Brother Erlangshen, who has supported a thousand years of love, you Liu Yanchang hurry up."

"Is the anchor going to heaven? I want to see Sister Chang'e! ”

"Yes, yes, what I said upstairs is right, the anchor will take us around the heavenly court."

“……”

Looking at the obviously crooked barrage, Xiao Yu couldn't cry or laugh, to blame Fairy Chang'e for being too famous, and she has steadily occupied the throne of the number one beauty for thousands of years.

But I ran to the heavenly court to peek at Chang'e taking a bath or something...... Perhaps?

……

At this time, the farce in front of the restaurant finally came to an end.

The shopkeeper saw that Liu Yanchang really didn't look like a liar, and he also had a talent document issued by the county lieutenant, and after thinking about it, he said:

"In that case, how about you pay half of the silver first, and then let the man go with you to the inn and fetch the rest of the silver?"

"That's the best."

The shopkeeper narrowed his eyes, crackled and fiddled with the abacus, and quickly said, "Five taels of silver, thank you for your patronage." ”

Liu Yanchang was taken aback: "How can it be so expensive?" ”

"You can inquire, my Zhao family restaurant has been open for a hundred years, and I have never deceived guests!"

"This old man asked for West Lake vinegar fish, braised elbow, hand-grabbed mutton and a plate of drunken crab, and all of them were double! In addition, I also asked for a twenty-year-old daughter red, and ten taels of silver is already the price of Chenghui. ”

"......" Liu Yanchang was speechless.

The shopkeeper rolled his eyes, "What did this son say?" ”

"I ......" Liu Yanchang opened his mouth, his face was red, the purchasing power of silver in this era is quite strong, basically three taels of silver is enough for a family of three for a month's living expenses.

Since Liu Yanchang was able to go to Beijing to catch the exam, it was obvious that his family was not a barren person, otherwise he would not be able to afford to study.

In fact, his father was originally a Lizheng in Liujia Village, and when he was in the limelight, there were 100 acres of fertile land and more than ten servants, but when he was young, an epidemic broke out in the village, and both parents failed to survive, leaving him alone after his death.

Liu Yanchang had not yet reached the crown at that time, and after reading books for so many years, he did not have half of the skills to make a living, so he could only sell his land for studying, but this was a way to sit and eat empty, and in the long run, the fertile land at home was almost sold clean, and only an old house remained.

Therefore, don't look at his appearance on the surface, in fact, he doesn't have much silver.

Now that he has to take out so much money to pay the bill for an old man who has nothing to do with it, he is naturally very hesitant in his heart.

Xiao Yu didn't continue to wait and see.

Life is already so difficult, why force others to make choices.

It can be clearly seen that Liu Yanchang's face has begun to sweat, but at this time, a shout suddenly sounded in the crowd:

"Brother Liu! Why are you here? ”

The crowd made way of a passage, Xiao Yu strode in, and very cordially clenched his fists to Liu Yanchang.

"Huh?" Liu Yanchang's eyes widened, "This brother, we know each other?" ”

"I don't know."

"Then you ......"

"In Xia Xiaoyu, he is also a scholar who went to Beijing to take the exam."

Xiao Yu smiled and said:

"Just now, I saw what Brother Liu did, he was benevolent and righteous, so I wanted to make friends."

Xiao Yu said and took out a silver ingot and threw it directly to the shopkeeper.

"Brother Xiao, how can I let you pay the bill?" Liu Yanchang was in a hurry.

"Money is something outside of one's body." Xiao Yu said seriously, "I have a little money on me, so what's the harm in helping Brother Liu?" ”

"This ......" Liu Yanchang saw that the shopkeeper had already smiled and pulled the silver into his sleeve, knowing that he would not come back, he could only clasp his fists, salute, gritted his teeth and said, "Thank you Brother Xiao for your help!" ”

As he spoke, he looked at the old man in Tsing Yi who had been silent next to him.

We're helping you out, you have to say a word, right?

The old man in Tsing Yi was indifferent, glanced at the two calmly, and said lightly:

"The old man Dai Xianzhuang owner, this trip, forgot to bring silver, but inherited the love of the two little brothers, if you don't give up, when you go to Beijing to catch the exam, you can go to Dai Xianzhuang to live, the old man will have a good reward."

As he spoke, he flicked his sleeves, the wind was blowing under his feet, and he strode away.

“……”

Liu Yanchang was dazed and stunned.

Old man, are you really good like this, you haven't mentioned the whereabouts of the ten taels of silver, bastard!

Xiao Yu glanced at the old man in Tsing Yi and muttered:

"Dai Xianzhuang owner?"

The story about Liu Yanchang in my impression mainly comes from the thunderous drama "Baolian Lantern", but there are always many confusing adaptations of TV series. Among the most widely circulated folklore, Liu Yanchang seems to have a wife before he hooked up with the Three Holy Mother...... It must be this Dai Xianzhuang.

Thinking about him, he is a mere showman, and he is a lonely and miserable person whose parents died, how can he marry the daughter of the owner of Dai Xianzhuang, and the son-in-law caught under the list is the person on the list, not the down-and-out Xiucai, the hanger-necked Xianggong!

Now it makes sense, it turns out that the heel is going to fall here.

Otherwise, Liu Yanchang, a poor talent who can't lift his hands and can't resist his shoulders, even if he looks good and can win the hearts of other young ladies, he won't be able to pass the level of his father-in-law and mother-in-law at all.

"Wait! Something seems wrong......"

Xiao Yu blinked, and was immediately shocked: "In this way, isn't the Third Holy Mother a junior?!" ”

Pit father, the niece of the dignified Jade Emperor, actually became someone else's junior, no wonder he wants to press you under Huashan! The gap between the two of you is simply bigger than that of a princess and a beggar, and you can't say anything if you don't suppress it.

The onlookers who ate melons saw that there was no excitement to see, and quickly dispersed.

When Liu Yanchang came back to his senses, the old man in Tsing Yi was already striding and disappeared, so he could only smile awkwardly at Xiao Yu, and hugged his fists and said:

"Brother Xiao, I don't have so much silver on me for the time being, can I give it a few days?"

Xiao Yu smiled: "This is not in a hurry, Brother Liu will pay me back when he wants...... By the way, is Brother Liu going to Beijing to take the exam? ”

Liu Yanchang nodded and said, "That's right, I'm going to take the spring test next year." ”

"As it happens, I'm going too." Xiao Yu smiled, "Why don't we go together?" ”

Liu Yanchang was overjoyed: "I can't ask for it." ”

The two said they would leave, and soon got out of Tongguan, Liu Yanchang asked:

"Brother Xiao is in a hurry?"

Xiao Yu shook his head and said:

"There is still a long time before the spring of the coming year, so I am not in a hurry, in fact, this time I came out, and I did not have the intention of looking for a secluded visit to the saint."

Liu Yanchang's eyes lit up and said:

"That's just right, I heard that there is a shrine of Our Lady in Huayin, thirty miles away from Tongguan, which is quite effective, why don't we also ask about the future?"

"Okay." Xiao Yu smiled slightly, his voice was a little inexplicable, "I have also admired the name of the Shrine of Our Lady for a long time, and I am going to take a look this time, so I can live up to my life's wishes." ”
