Chapter 50: Puppy
The meal was not invited, but drank a lot of good tea into the stomach, Yuan Zhongtang also saw that the two were embarrassed, said that they were busy before the year, and they must have been bothered after the year, and chatted for a long time, Wang Xiaohu and William Lin said goodbye and went out, since Yuan Zhongtang also said that please ask the stove prince, then it must be right, the two reversed and went straight to the New Year's market, to see, crowded with people, colorful flags, and the signing scene of Aunt Baiyun, this is called a lively.
The Chinese people have a tradition of saving money, and they become generous during the Chinese New Year, buying chickens, ducks, fish, and meat...... As if the tight bar energy accumulated in a year was released in just a few days, Wang Xiaohu and William Lin also had a sense of liberation, feeling the joy of the New Year while buying New Year's goods.
The brothers have been tight for a year, and they should relax and relax, they have bought a lot of things, chickens, ducks, fish, melons, fruits, pears, and peaches, and they almost found a pair to buy Spring Festival couplets, but they are also complete, Fu words, paper-cutting, and door gods, according to Wang Xiaohu's meaning, they should buy the door gods and go back and paste them, drive away evil spirits and avoid evil, but Gao Qi and Yuan Zhongtang both said please the god of the stove, just follow what they said, coincidentally, this really has a portrait of the god of the stove, five yuan a piece, the god of the stove on the painting has a kind face, and it looks so old and festive.
Don't look at the god of the stove is not big, but the name is not small, and the whole title is the East Kitchen Si Ming Jiu Ling Yuan Wang Dingfu Shenjun, commonly known as the Stove Jun, or the Stove Jun Gong, the Si Ming Zhenjun, the Nine Heavens East Kitchen Tobacco Master, the House Tianzun or the Stove King, the north calls him the Stove King, and Luanmen is enshrined as one of the three benefactors, that is, the god of the kitchen.
It is said that the worship of the god of the stove has begun in the Shang Dynasty, and the Qin and Han dynasties were listed as one of the main five rituals before, and the five gods of the door god, the god of the well, the god of the toilet and the god of the middle slip are responsible for the safety of the family The reason why the god of the stove is respected is that in addition to being in charge of people's food and drink, in addition to giving convenience to life, the duty of the god of the stove is the official sent by the Jade Emperor God to the world to investigate the good and evil of a family. The god of the stove serves the two gods left and right, one holds the pot of good and the other holds the jar of evil, and keeps the record of the family's behavior in the jar at any time, and then reports to the Jade Emperor God after the total at the end of the year. The twenty-fourth day of December is the day when the god of the stove leaves the world, and the heavens report to the Jade Emperor God what the family has done in the past year, also known as the "resignation stove", so every household has to send the god of the stove.
Today is the twenty-seventh day of the lunar month, three days before the New Year, the old custom believes that the twenty-third day of the lunar month sends the god Vesta to heaven until Chinese New Year's Eve to welcome back, during which there is no god in the world, there is no taboo, and the people marry more, which is called "the year of chaos". Inviting Vega God should have been on Chinese New Year's Eve, and now there is not so much attention, not to mention that Gao Qi and Yuan Zhongtang two knowledgeable people said so, Wang Xiaohu did not mind the old customs, invited Vesta, door god, and bought Fu characters, couplets, and even bought one or five thousand rings, ready to remove obscurity during the New Year.
The big bag and small bag are almost done, I wanted to go home as soon as possible, but the cautious bald donkey called Wang Xiaohu and said that he would wait for him in the New Year's market, and he would also buy some New Year's goods, and everyone would celebrate the New Year together, and said that they would invite the two of them to eat at noon.
Shen Xu's phone call shook Wang Xiaohu and William Lin, and looked at the sun, this is from the west? Be cautious of a bald donkey, the stone can squeeze out two taels of oil, and the lord who can chew a fart for three days, how can he think of the New Year's goods and invite him to dinner?
Since Shenxu has this heart, he can't let people be sad, Wang Xiaohu and William Lin waited for Shenxu in the market, discussed what to eat, waited for almost two hours, urged three phone calls, and Shenxu a bald donkey arrived, and I don't know where Lu Dao went to deceive, took Wang Xiaohu and William Lin, bought cigarettes and alcohol, painted a hundred, and shouted to take the two to eat Xinjiang cuisine.
When I arrived at the place, I realized that the shitty Xinjiang cuisine was his mother's ramen stall, and it was quite a big deal, as if it cost a lot of money, so that the boss put more beef and green onions, and opened a bottle of two pots, and enthusiastically pushed the cup to change the lamp.
Wang Xiaohu and William Lin are angry, but after all, Shen Xu is invited, and he drank a little patiently, drank and drank, and Shen Xu's bald donkey was a little drunk again, and he bragged to the boss there, Wang Xiaohu looked at the sky, it was already dark, and the New Year's market was not close to where he lived, so he had to pull Shen Xu and William Lin home.
Wang Xiaohu also lost his patience, dragged William Lin to get up and left, and didn't go far, Shen Xu's bald donkey chased after him with a drunken spirit, and the three hurriedly reversed the car to catch up, but near the end of the year, a lot of outsiders in the capital went home for the New Year, and the bus company's car was not so diligent, and it was reversed twice, and it was necessary to reverse it again to rush home, but there was no last train.
Wang Xiaohu is called a hateful panic, but there is no way, and he is reluctant to take a taxi, the three of them are carrying things, like migrant workers, walking back, from here to where they live There are still seven or eight stations away, the cautious bald donkey said that he knew the road shortcut, took them through the streets and alleys, walked for more than an hour, and got lost.
Wang Xiaohu wanted to beat him, if it weren't for William Lin to stop him, he really wanted to give this bald donkey some color, looked around, I don't know where Lu Dao is, it's quite remote, like the feeling of a suburb, there are few people, the construction unit is connected into a piece, and the unfinished high-rise buildings are like huge monsters that choose people to eat and loom in the dark.
"Click!" A deafening thunderbolt slashed down from the sky, startling Wang Xiaohu, who was annoyed, and looked up at the sky, and saw that the sky was full of stars, and the thunder struck suddenly and strangely. What's more, it's winter now, what does the thunder of the big winter portend? He didn't come for himself, but he didn't do anything angry and resentful.
Immediately, he saw Shen Xu, and suddenly realized, this bald donkey pit was abducted and deceived and didn't know what bad things Lu Dao had done, and even God couldn't stand it, so he hurriedly dragged William Lin away from Shen Xu, and Shen Xu's wine was not exhausted, so he gestured his middle finger towards the sky and shouted: "Wang Xiaohu is over there, damn, please be a little accurate." ”
Shen Xuan put up his middle finger, click, and a thunderbolt fell from the sky, Wang Xiaohu stood aside and saw clearly, in a thunder that wanted to split the entire world, there was a fast black shadow, and then his eyes turned white, and he lost his vision for a short time, and hurriedly closed his eyes, slowed down, and was also surprised in his heart, why was the thunder so close to him? What's that dark shadow inside Thunder? Could it be that there is a Taoist friend who survived the catastrophe and soared up?
In a trance, it actually rained again, Wang Xiaohu had never encountered such a strange thing, and looked up at the sky again, there was no cloud at all, where did the rain come from? He felt that he was about to go crazy, and looked at Shen Xu, who was not killed by lightning, for fear that he would encounter something strange and bizarre again at night, and beckoned Shen Xu William Lin to leave quickly.
After walking a few steps, Xiaoyu suddenly disappeared without a trace, as if it was a joke that God played with them, passing through a construction site, a few wild dogs in front of them barked fiercely, with a poignant cry, William Lin was timid again, followed closely behind Wang Xiaohu, cautious and drunk, muttering, Wang Xiaohu didn't want to be nosy, but heard a few timid "woo...... pitiful chirps in the dog's barking.
Turning his head, three or four dirty wild dogs yelled wildly around a little black dog that looked like Jingba, and the strange thing was that several wild dogs did not go up to bite, but surrounded the little black dog and roared hysterically, as if they were very frightened, the little black dog, whining...... The scream was very pitiful, a pair of small paws still covered his head, and his whole body trembled, like a helpless child.
Wang Xiaohu was a little stunned, picked up a wooden stick from the ground, and pointed to the wild dogs: "Get out of here!" While shouting, while waving a wooden stick to drive away the wild dogs, the three or four wild dogs saw him menacing, whining and running away with their tails, Wang Xiaohu walked to the puppy and squatted, stretched out his hand to touch its little head, while muttering: "Evil, why did such a small dog throw it away......
As soon as he touched a raised place on the top of the puppy's head, Wang Xiaohu opened the long black hair with a sigh, and saw a bulge on the puppy's head, like a sarcoma, no wonder the puppy was thrown away, it turned out to be a deformity, Wang Xiaohu suddenly realized, but the puppy showed a pair of big black eyes and looked at him timidly, very cute.
"Nian, Nian......" The puppy smelled the breath of Wang Xiaohu's body, his eyes became brighter and brighter, and he arched into his arms vigorously.
"Little thing, if you see these wild dogs again in the future, run away...... There are many wicked people in this world, and there are many vicious dogs, you have to know how to protect yourself......" Wang Xiaohu's mother-in-law said a few words, threw down the puppy and left, he is not without sympathy, it is really a lack of sympathetic capital, he and William Lin have to work, they can't keep the puppy at home all day, not to mention that they are lazy, if the puppy pulls and pees, it will be troublesome to clean up.
The puppy seemed to understand his words and whined...... barked a few times, more and more pitiful, Wang Xiaohu walked, the puppy followed behind him, Wang Xiaohu walked fast, the puppy ran fast, Wang Xiaohu walked slowly, the puppy slowly followed him, a very tacit look, Wang Xiaohu began to be a little annoyed, but as soon as he turned around, the puppy immediately stopped, just looked at him with a pair of cute eyes, very sensible.
Seeing that the puppy was entangled with Wang Xiaohu, William Lin couldn't help but say, "It's pitiful, let's keep it if it's not good." ”
"Then you are responsible for feeding the dog, walking the dog, if it pees, you clean it up!"
William Lin was stunned and said, "Then forget it." After speaking, he also threatened the puppy: "Don't follow anymore, follow and beat you again!" ”
Shen followed listlessly, thinking that he had nothing to say, when he saw William Lin scaring the puppy, he stepped forward and hugged him, and said righteously: "The dog understands human nature and is a loyal minister, how can you ...... it like this" Before the words were finished, the puppy actually bit his right hand fiercely, and the bite was bloody.
