Chapter Eighty-Four: A Serendipitous Encounter
"Dare to ask your guest what is the matter?" The man who came out of Zhou's mansion was very polite, and he was not domineering because of his identity. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info can be a doorman.,Basically, it's a person who has a lively mind and can speak well.,If it's really that stupid.,Maybe when it will bring disaster to the family.。
"I am the shopkeeper of the Fang family's rice shop, this is my master's invitation, and I hope that the master can appreciate his face. Shopkeeper Zhao took out an invitation from his sleeve and handed it to Menzi.
"It turns out that you are from Fangfu, it just so happens that your Excellency is at home today, so I'll go and ask. "If you are a doorman, you must know all the big families in Changning County. This Fang Mansion has always been low-key, and even the mansion has been moved to the village, but because it has more than a dozen shops in the county town, and the family background is not small, the door is still secretly careful.
Shopkeeper Zhao nodded, and then the door walked in quickly. Shopkeeper Zhao turned around and found that Fang Hongmao was looking around cautiously behind a stone lion.
He couldn't help but be a little amused, what's the matter with this kid? However, he didn't care too much, just treated it as a child's playfulness.
After a while, the man came back again, "Go back and tell Master Fang, my family agreed." ”
And so, thank you. Shopkeeper Zhao arched his hand towards Menzi, then took out the usual money and stuffed it into Menzi's hand. "This ...... How embarrassing. Menzi excused himself first, but Shopkeeper Zhao was very resolute and had to accept it.
"This is for my brother to drink tea, not a tribute. "Shopkeeper Zhao has followed Fang Dayuan for so many years, and he has always understood a truth, this money cannot be saved, especially when you need to ask someone to do something. Although the other party is just a disciple, the person who can be a disciple must be trusted by Master Zhou, and it is absolutely right to have a good relationship.
"Hey, you're so out-of-this. Menzi put away the money, although he looked like he was blaming, but his words were much more affectionate.
The sky and the earth are big, and the face is not as big as money. Who said money can't buy feelings, isn't this just buying?
"Okay, then I'll take my leave first, and I'll have a chance to visit again later. Shopkeeper Zhao arched his hand towards the door and was about to go back. And Menzi kept sending it to the bottom of the stairs before turning back.
"Shopkeeper Zhao, let's go back quickly. Fang Hong was a little anxious waiting, if it was at any other time, he would rather stay outside for a while than go back to see his father's face. But now, he felt that he was afraid of causing trouble to his father, and he thought it would be better to go back early.
Although Shopkeeper Zhao felt that Fang Hong was a little strange, he did not object, and the two walked back together along the road they had come.
However, they were really afraid of something, and they had just taken a few steps when a man with bruised faces and tattered and dirty clothes came from the corner and came into a head-on collision with them.
"Hillbilly, it's you!" Fang Hong didn't recognize this person at first, but Zhou Dongwen shouted out in a sharp voice. What he experienced today was simply a nightmare, although he didn't see clearly who threw the copper coin, but it didn't prevent him from spreading his resentment on Fang Hong's body.
"It's not me!" Fang Hong hurriedly lowered his head, and then pulled the shopkeeper Zhao and ran. Damn, this time it's a disaster, if Dad knows that things are messed up because of himself, then there is absolutely no way to live.
"Don't run!" Zhou Dongwen wanted to step forward to chase after him, but as soon as he exerted his strength, he felt pain everywhere in his body. Damn, I was trampled on so many feet, and it was already considered luck that I wasn't trampled to death, how could I have the ability to chase people.
"Young Master...... Who was that person just now? Why are we running?" After running a street, the shopkeeper Zhao said a little breathlessly, he is in his forties, he is not as good as a young man, and he has no strength to run a few steps.
"This is a madman I met in the City God Temple, and if he wants to pull me by the hair, this kind of person still doesn't bother with it. Fang Hong was not easy to tell the truth, so he said nonsense.
"I see, so it's better for us to stay away. Shopkeeper Zhao glanced at Fang Hong meaningfully, but he didn't say anything.
"Yes, let's go back quickly. Fang Hong was afraid that Zhou Dongwen would go back to call someone, so he pulled the sleeve of the shopkeeper Zhao and said with some eagerness.
"Alas, young master, you still spare my old bones, I really can't run. Zhao's shopkeeper's face immediately turned into a bitter gourd, he has been a shopkeeper for so many years, his bones are about to rust, and he can still run.
The two of them ran and rested along the way, and it took about half an hour to return to the rice shop.
"Young master, you play by yourself here first, I'll go and rest for a while, ouch ......" Entering the shop, Shopkeeper Zhao waved his hand at Fang Hong with a wry smile, and then entered the inner hall by himself.
Fang Hong was also a little embarrassed, because of his own reasons, he actually let Shopkeeper Zhao suffer this way. Well, go back and ask Dad to give Shopkeeper Zhao a salary increase.
As soon as he entered the inner hall, the tired look on the shopkeeper Zhao's face immediately disappeared, and he regained his appearance of a good old man who was as stable as a mountain, as if nothing had happened just now.
"The owner, Fang Lichang, Master Zhou has agreed. He saluted Fang Dayuan and Fang Zhi and said respectfully.
"Have you ever bumped into anyone at Master Zhou's house?" Hearing the news, Fang Zhitong not only didn't feel happy, but asked a little anxiously.
"No, oh, by the way, when we were going back, we ran into a ragged madman, and he was chasing the young master to beat someone. Shopkeeper Zhao didn't know the inside story, but just said truthfully.
"Does that person look like a young man?" Fang Zhitong asked. Shopkeeper Zhao thought for a moment, then nodded.
"It's over, that must be the son of Master Zhou's family, you say, Fang Hong's courage is too big, even Master Zhou's son dares to rectify it, I shouldn't have agreed to bring him to the city at that time. Fang Zhitong's face showed a hint of dejection, if Master Zhou's son hadn't bumped into Fang Hong, it would be okay to say, after all, there are so many people in Changning County, how difficult it is to find someone. However, Fang Hong didn't send it to the door now, he couldn't say that he had to burden himself and others.
"Where did you meet that person?" Fang Dayuan interjected at this time, there were so many families in the west of the city, if they met them halfway, it would not be easy to suspect them. But......
"We met at the door of Mr. Zhou's house. Shopkeeper Zhao thought of Fang Hong's panicked appearance at this time, if he didn't understand, he would really be a fool.
"Hehe, even the last road is blocked, as long as the son of Master Zhou goes back and asks, he can find out about us. Fang Zhi laughed angrily, if it weren't for Fang Dayuan being here, he would have scolded Fang Hong.
