"Sir, don't be polite, the old man took his grandson on a long trip, and it was the first time to meet a hospitable host like you, I am very grateful, this silver has been taken out, how can there be any reason to take it back?" Old Liu Tou said, and pushed the silver in front of the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man excused himself again and again, it seemed that he really didn't want this silver, but the old Liu Tou could speak well, and let him accept the silver, and threatened that if he didn't accept it, he wouldn't live in his house, and he would find another home, the middle-aged man reluctantly accepted the silver, but he had a frightened look, and he was much more polite to Lao Liu Tou and Wu Feng.

There is a good saying that money can make ghosts grind, and this sentence is true.

However, this middle-aged man is still quite ambitious, and he really doesn't want to accept their money, if it weren't for the threat of Lao Liu, he would definitely not accept it.

Next, a table of people sat down to eat, and the beautiful woman took the child to eat, and the northerners, especially near the hometown of Confucius and Mencius, had a very heavy etiquette, especially in those days, when guests came to the house, women and children could not eat with the guests, which was a tradition left over thousands of years.

With this relationship, it is very easy to speak, Lao Liu Tou took out his wine gourd again, it was full of wine, and the three big men chatted together while drinking, and learned from the conversation that the middle-aged man was the private school gentleman of this village, who taught a group of students in the village, and barely relied on the private school fees of some students to maintain the livelihood of the family, and made do with it.

This middle-aged man's surname is Fang, his single name is a real character, the beautiful woman just now is his wife, and the two children are naturally his daughter and son.

After a few glasses of wine, the middle-aged man talked more, chattering about the situation in his family, saying that his wife Chen was the daughter of a certain foreigner, and that his son's name was Fang Jiayi, and his daughter's nickname was Xuanxuan, who was very obedient and sensible.

After talking for a long time, Lao Liu Tou finally asked a question in his heart: "Mr. Fang, there is something that the old man doesn't know whether to ask or not?" ”

Mr. Fang drank a glass of wine, his face was slightly red, he was already three or five points drunk, and waved his hand and said: "I have a relationship with the old gentleman, and my words are also speculative, if there is anything else that should not be asked, you can say that it is okay." ”

Lao Liu Tou also took a sip of wine, and then said: "When the old man knocked on your family with his grandson just now, why didn't you want to stay with us, and said that other people's families would not stay with us?" And one more thing is - why is your village so quiet, why is it that at night you can't see a single person, not even a dog barking? ”

After Lao Liu asked this series of questions, Mr. Fang's face immediately changed, and the wine glass in his hand did not grasp it firmly, and fell to the ground all of a sudden, shattered, and did not speak for a long time.

No one expected that this Mr. Fang would have such a big reaction, and Lao Liu Tou thought he had said the wrong thing, so he hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry, Mr. Fang, did the old man ask something that shouldn't be asked?" If it's inconvenient to say, just assume that the old man didn't ask. ”

Mr. Fang sighed, waved his hand again and again, looking extremely tired, and after a while, he said: "It's not that I don't want to sue the two of you, it's just that both of you are passing guests, and you shouldn't tell you, I'm afraid of scaring you." ”
