Chapter 377 Strange People and Strange Ways (1)
The little girl had never seen such a brazen person, who had the intention not to buy the other party's account, but felt that it was inappropriate to eat the things herself after all.
But if she really gave the money, she couldn't swallow this loss, so she could only look at the old man aggrievedly at the moment, and wanted to cry: "Grandpa, look at him!"
The old man deserved to be a reckless old man, and suddenly slapped the table hard, and scolded:
"Bastard! You guys are simply a black shop, and you dare to ask for two taels of silver for just this little thing? It's really lawless! If the old man doesn't demolish your shop, he will already open the net, and he still dare to ask for money? Get out!"
The old man was so powerful and domineering, the little girl's heart was full of joy, and she clapped her hands vigorously.
The guy seemed to be used to seeing this kind of scene, so he immediately sneered and beckoned behind him: "Come out quickly, this person wants to eat white food!"
"Who wants to eat white food?"
Behind the counter, two big men stood up immediately, each of them more than eight feet tall, born with a fat waist and a perfect face, and stood in front of the grandfather and grandson, like an iron tower overlooking a chicken, full of oppression:
"You two want to eat white food?"
Looking at these two fierce men who could run horses on their arms and stand on their fists, the old man swallowed his saliva with difficulty, and the arrogance on his body disappeared, and he leaned over and muttered to the little girl:
"Who are we? We can't be as knowledgeable as them! We came to Jinyang to do great things, if we do something with this kind of person, it will be too bad, why don't we let them go this time?"
The little girl was serious, and nodded again and again: "Okay, let them go this time." For two taels of silver, it is not worth beating them to the point of breaking their heads and bleeding in public, and it is not worth it. ”
The grandfather and grandson reached an agreement, and they were particularly satisfied with their behavior of thinking about the long term and sticking to their principles regardless of grudges.
When they looked at the two fierce men who seemed to be on the roof of the shed, the two of them had no fear, not only that, but their eyes even had the meaning of looking down.
The man took the silver handed over by the old man, smiled again, thanked him loudly, and returned to the counter with the two fierce men in the shouting of the grandfather and grandson.
The little girl looked at the pastries on the plate that looked very good, but the taste was really no different from mud, and she had the heart to stop trying it, but when she thought that the two taels of silver had already been paid, and she would lose too much if she didn't eat it, she looked at the old man, thought about it and asked:
"Grandpa, do you still drink this tea?"
The old man also hesitated for a while, but finally picked up the tea bowl.
When he looked at the tea again, he was already upright, and the words he said were full of truth: "Born in the red world, one drink and one peck, one step at a time, it is not a practice, and it is impossible to temper the Taoist heart."
"As the saying goes, there are thousands of voices and colors, there is nothing outside the heart, you think this tea is unpalatable, he is naturally unpleasant, if you think this tea is delicious, then it will be delicious. ”
After that, the old man took a sip of muddy tea, although his mouth was so bitter that even his eyebrows were shaking, but he exclaimed with a look of belief: "Good tea, really good tea!"
The old man has already taught by word and deed, and the little girl wants the old man not to drink tea, so that she can take advantage of the situation and not eat pastries, and her hope of wasting food with confidence has been in vain.
Now that there is no choice, the little girl can only look serious, and when she picks up a small piece of jujube cake and brings it to her mouth, recalling the taste just now, her appetite once again launched a strong protest, and her small mouth can't help but deflat.
Turning his head to look at the old man again, he saw that the other party's eyes were full of encouragement, so he could only close his eyes, open his small mouth, and stuff his small hands, swallow the jujube cake, and then close his senses as much as possible, suppress the gastrointestinal intention to rebel, and in the old man's expectant gaze, he nodded his head against his will:
"Delicious!"
The old man was satisfied, and the smile in the wrinkles was a little playful, how to look at how to be disrespectful to the old, like an old naughty boy.
He thought he had a good way of hiding his expression, but he was still caught by the little girl who was full of aura, and the little girl rolled her eyes, pushed the pastry plate in front of the old man, and said seriously with a filial look:
"Grandpa, you haven't eaten for a long time, how can you fill your stomach just by drinking tea, this jujube cake is so delicious, you can eat some too...... Well, eat more!"
Old man: "......"
He let out a long sigh and said sadly to the little girl: "Hongkou, I will teach you to respect the old and love the young, don't always make the little character play smart, why do you always forget?"
The little girl Hongkou opened her innocent eyes: "Grandpa, what are you talking about, why can't Hongkou understand? Isn't it filial piety to you to give delicious things to grandpa?"
As she spoke, her small mouth deflated again, looking very aggrieved.
Old man: "......"
In order to distract himself, Hongkou was eating tea casually, and at the same time he looked around the outside of the tea shed intently, and said without a mouthful when he looked at it:
"Grandpa, isn't Jindi fighting, you said that Hu Zi gathered two or three hundred thousand troops and attacked Jindi on several sides, but why doesn't Jinyang seem to have anything?
"There are so many people coming and going on the street, talking and laughing, and even the businessmen are better, don't they worry about the war?"
The old man ate dim sum and looked at the street scene, just like the little girl, after listening to the little girl's words, he stuffed a large piece of jujube cake into his mouth, and immediately took over the conversation:
"These bearded men were careless, whether they were from the north or from the east, they were stopped from Xiongguan, and they fought for several months, and they failed to set foot in the gate of Jindi, but they lost a lot of soldiers.
"Of course, this is also the reason why the Hedong Army is strong and the Zhao cultivators are strong.
"All in all, Jinyang, as the hinterland of Hedong, is not in any danger at the moment, except that there are fewer merchants and more cultivators who secretly monitor the Quartet, everything here is no different from usual. ”
Seeing that there was not much pastry left on the plate, and that the difficult battle was about to end, Hongkou decided to go all out.
She drew a line in the middle of the pastry, pulled most of the jujube cake chops to the old man's side, twisted up a few small pieces of her side, and stuffed all the brains into her mouth, ignoring the bulging cheeks, and hurriedly spoke angrily:
"Grandpa, didn't you say that the people of Jindi are simple, why are we outside the gate of Jinyang City, and we will be calculated by the profiteers of the tea shed, which is not in line with what you said before!
"And Brother Ning said before that in Jinyang, where the Zhao family is here, there will definitely be no such behavior as bullying and bullying, which is also inconsistent with what he said, is Brother Ning lying?"
When the old man saw the jujube cakes on the plate, all the jujube cakes were allocated to him, he wanted to make persistent efforts to save food, but his stomach had already begun to churn, and he really couldn't put his mouth down.
After listening to the little girl's words, he was finally furious, stretched out his hand and slapped the table heavily, and roared in the direction of the counter: "Call your boss lady and return the money!
The lazy fellow, who was napping on the counter with his elbows, was startled by the old man's shout, and almost smashed his face on the counter, and he was stunned for a moment before he remembered that he should be furious, so he glared and shouted:
"Dead old man, I think you're tired of being crooked!
The two warriors in the human world before walked out from behind the counter again when they heard this, still menacing, standing like a mountain, eyeing the thin old man.
Hongkou tugged at the sleeve of the old man's coat and said in a low voice, "Grandpa, didn't you decide to let them go? Why do you want to do it again? Isn't your personality too unstable?"
The old man snorted coldly, raised his chin and said proudly: "There's no reason, I'm just unhappy." ”
The little girl gave a thumbs up with deep admiration.
The guy came to the table with two fierce men, his face full of impatience: "Old man, you ......"
"Get on your knees. Halfway through the other party's words, the old man suddenly drank indifferently.
When the man and the two warriors heard this, they were about to disdainfully mock each other's idiot dreams, when suddenly their shoulders were like boulders, their knees were weak, and they all knelt in front of the old man!
The man was like a ghost in the daytime, horrified, and looked at the old man's eyes full of incomprehension.
The other party is really a master?
Since he is a master, why didn't he make a move before?
I swallowed my anger until this moment, so why did I come?
The diners in the restaurant were just about to watch the jokes of these two face-saving grandfathers and grandsons, and when they saw that the guy and the two fierce men actually knelt down when they said that they knelt, they were all dumbfounded, and they didn't know what was going on.
The old man's eyes fell on the back of the tea shed, and a strong qi machine had firmly locked a person, and said coldly: "You haven't come out yet?"
The curtain behind the tea shed was lifted, and no one was seen, but a charming laugh like a silver bell was heard, and a pretty woman in cloth and hairpins and appeared in front of everyone with catwalks.
I saw her glance at the old man meaningfully, "I haven't seen him for many years, the old man is still so angry, and it seems that there is no progress in cultivation." But I'm curious, how did you know I was here?"
The woman could not tell her age, perhaps less than thirty, or perhaps in her forties, with fair and smooth skin, and her facial features were finely carved without the slightest wrinkle.
However, the style she revealed with a smile seemed to be after decades of precipitation, and it was incomprehensible in beauty, and just one look made the diners in the tea shed, regardless of men, women and children, their eyes straighten, and they could no longer take their attention off.
The old man pursed his lips contemptuously: "Ning Xiaozi has long said that the Jinyang world is clean and orderly, and he will not say big things, let alone lie."
"Your fellow in the tea shed is so unreasonable, and he can still open it outside the city gate, he can only be an outsider who has been specially taken care of. ”
Speaking of this, he pushed the plate decorated with snacks in front of him outward, as if he was disgusted with dog dung: "The most important thing is that within the four seas of the world, the old man has only seen you if you can make jujube cake so unpalatable!"
"The reason why there are still diners in this restaurant is because you, the proprietress is still a little beautiful, and they all want to come and see it, but I am afraid that there is no other reason. ”
