readx;? Chapter 6: Breaking the Cocoon (10)

"Sanchun, where are you going, Sanmore is careful of wolves in the middle of the night!" Tao Zheng's son cared about his sister and hurriedly chased after him. Half of the pen & fun & pavilion www.biquge.info had already rushed out of the crowd, but he suddenly reversed his body, and while running backwards, he bowed to Chai Rong and the others, "Don't blame the three benevolent fathers, my sister is too anxious, I have to get her back first." Tomorrow morning, I will thank my father in person!"

This hand, which is like flying backwards but does not care about the change of terrain at all, immediately won a full house. The villagers didn't ask what the three outsiders thought, and after applauding loudly, they immediately overstepped the words, "Go, go, don't let the spring girl encounter any danger." ”

"Guests are greeted by our help, Da Chun, you just go!"

"Watch your step, it's dark and slippery!"

......

The three brothers, Chai Rong, Zhao Kuangyin and Zheng Ziming, had not asked for anything to be repaid by others, but they also arched their hands and responded one after another, "You can go, you don't have to be polite!

"Yes, if the three of us don't come out, that group of bandits won't let us go!"

"What happened tonight is definitely a misunderstanding. Ning, Zheng is really sorry, please explain a little more to Sister Chun!"

"It must be!" Tao Dachun arched his hand at the three brothers again, turned around again, and ran in the direction where his sister disappeared, and in a few breaths, his figure was completely shrouded in the night.

Chai Rong and Zhao Kuangyin watched him leave, and then pulled Ning Ziming out of the crowd and apologized to the old man Tao Zheng together. And once again promised, to compensate for the damaged cold melon according to the market price.

Where is Tao Laohan willing to ask for money? He stepped back and waved his hand again and again: "It's just a few melons, don't take it to heart." If it weren't for the three benevolent fathers, Xiao Lao'er's rotten bones would have been buried in the wilderness of Yi County a long time ago, how could he have a chance to go home and plant melons? Three benefactors, please don't be like her!"

"Where, where, it's the three of us who are at fault first!" Knowing that Ning Ziming accidentally took advantage of the eldest girl, Chai Rong had a ghost in his heart, and continued to be polite with a red face.

"Engong don't say it anymore, if you say it again, the little old man will have no face to see people. "Old Han Taozheng actually knew for a long time that his daughter was definitely not the master who would fight with others for twenty or thirty cold melons, but the other party had the grace to save his life first, and no matter how big the conflict was, he could only put it aside for the time being. "In the middle of the night, Engong must also need to rest. Why don't you go to the little old man's house to eat a bowl of hot rice first, then get some sleep, and then it's not too late to continue your journey tomorrow morning?"

"This ......" Chai Rong frowned, his face showing a little hesitation.

In fact, until now, he still can't find the slightest impression of Tao Zheng in his mind. In case the other party has anything to do with the local government, if you sleep this night, the three brothers will be unable to fly tomorrow.

Although Tao Laohan is just an ordinary rich man in the countryside, his knowledge and grasp of people's hearts are not bad at all. With a glance up and down, I knew that the three Engongs were probably on the way to escape at the moment. immediately smiled and added loudly, "Dare to let the three engongs know, the old man's surname is Tao, this village is called Taojia Village, and everyone is considered to be the descendants of Mr. Wuliu." The ancestors refused to bend their waists for five buckets of rice, and although those of us who are descendants are not angry, we are categorically unable to do the things that tend to be inflammatory, and act for the tiger. (Note 1)

"In this way, it will bother the old man!" Since the old man has said everything to this point, if Chai Rong hesitates any longer, it will be equivalent to slapping the owner of this place in the face in public. I had to arch my hand and agree with a smile.

When the old man heard this, he immediately smiled. Turn around and command the teenagers from the same townspeople!

"Erniu, go to your house and catch a rooster and come over to stew soup!"

"Da Zhuang, do you have any dried deer legs at home, take one for me to use first. Another day, let Da Chun go into the mountains and beat the live deer to return you!"

"Four pillars, you are good at crafting, please help the old man prepare a supper. Do as you do in the city, and I'll sell melons to you another day!"

"Five Men ......"

"Don't worry, you're old. Wrap it up on us!" The young people live in the mountains, and their hearts have a simplicity that is rare in the outside world. They all agreed, and they went to prepare firewood, ingredients, and wine to help the old Han Tao entertain distinguished guests.

The other villagers who were not ordered hugged each other and welcomed the three brothers Chai Rong, Zhao Kuangyin, and Ning Ziming into the village. They were sent to the gate of the brightest courtyard in the middle of the village, and then they went home with a smile.

Tao Laohan opened the main door with his own hands and let the three brothers into the big room used to entertain distinguished guests. Then light all the oil lamps in the house, put the fresh melons and fruits, and invite the guests to taste them, while beckoning their juniors to cook tea and rice.

At this moment, Chai Rong finally found some impressions of the old man from the depths of his memory. smiled and apologized in a low voice, "Uncle, please forgive the junior for not being able to recognize you in time for being clumsy." If not......"

"The three Engongs are not familiar with each other, so they should be a little vigilant!" Old Han Tao waved his hand and responded very magnificently, "Besides, the little old man was busy protecting his sister-in-law, brother-in-law, nephew, and niece that day, and he didn't know what to do. I only had time to take advantage of Engong's momentum to beat the water dog, and I didn't contribute much, so Engong didn't remember that the little old man should have been!"

"It's still that the younger generation has a bad memory. Hearing what the old man said, Chai Rong was no longer polite, thought about it, and made a request with a smile. "Uncle, since we have a friendship of killing thieves side by side, don't be a benefactor. Otherwise, our brother will be really embarrassed!"

"Then don't be a junior. Old Han Tao Zheng was not a pedantic person in the first place, and immediately smiled and "bargained".

"Then, that's fine, uncle, Chai and my two brothers won't be polite to you!" Chai Rong hesitated slightly and responded loudly.

The guests and hosts looked at each other and smiled, and in the blink of an eye, the atmosphere in the room became extremely harmonious. Taking advantage of the fact that there were no outsiders around for the time being, Chai Rong quickly organized the language and explained what happened tonight from beginning to end. Including the reason why Tao Sanchun was desperate to find his third brother, he also euphemistically pointed out: It was the two chess opponents who fought in close quarters, and accidentally committed some taboos, which was definitely not intentional.

After that, he pulled Ning Ziming over and asked him to apologize to the old Han Tao in person.

Since it was a misunderstanding, how could the old man Tao Zheng dare to let his life-saving benefactor be wronged? He stepped forward to hold Ning Ziming's arm and said loudly, "Alas! Zheng Gongzi doesn't have to blame himself so much! The old man is also a martial arts practitioner, so of course he understands what this is all about. Besides, with your skills, if you really have malicious intentions towards Xiaochun, you would have knocked her unconscious to the ground, how could you wait until the villagers rushed over and not be able to tell the winner?!"

"Uncle, you are too modest. It's not like the two of them didn't have a winner. In the second half, Ling Ai beat my third brother all over the mountain. Zhao Kuangyin didn't want to leave hidden dangers, so he interjected with a smile before Chai Rong and Ning Ziming took over.

"Ah, is there such a thing?" the old man was taken aback, his face full of incredulity.

"If you don't believe it, you can ask the villagers!" Zhao Kuangyin smiled and nodded, his face was honest, harmless to humans and animals, "It's a shame that the villagers came in time, otherwise, my third brother may not be able to escape the iron fork of love!"

"Hey, this kid, this kid!" Tao Zheng heard this, and the last trace of mustard in his heart was gone. Holding Ning Ziming's arm, his face was full of embarrassment, "Gongzi Zheng, it's a shame that you don't want to be like her." Don't worry, wait until tomorrow morning, I'll bet Xiaochun to come over and compensate you!"

"It's me, it's my fault. As long as you are old and don't worry about me, I will be satisfied. No, no other, really no other!" Ning Ziming was stunned as soon as he thought of watching the melon girl's murderous performance tonight. Quickly took a few quick steps back and waved his hand again and again.

Seeing him so humble and kind, the old man Tao Zheng felt more and more that his daughter had done too much tonight. However, parents can't help but cherish their children. After thinking about it, he said with a smile: "Since Zheng Gongzi is so generous, it is better for Xiao Lao'er to have more things than one thing less." The three sons are all people who do big things, why did they pass by here tonight, the little old man didn't dare to ask more. But although the three sons can rest assured, Taojiazhuang will never reveal the whereabouts of the three. You just have to eat and sleep with confidence, and when you leave tomorrow, all the dry food and luggage will be wrapped in the little old man!"

"Then how can you make it, it's already too much to come and bother you for no reason, how dare you even eat and take it?" Chai Rong heard this, and immediately waved his hand politely.

"What's the point of not being able to? Although the little old man's family is not well-off, he is not short of a few sets of clothes and a bag of dry food! Isn't Engong still worried about me? Afraid that I will get the three of you drunk and then send them to the enemy?" Tao Zheng had the intention of repaying the three of them for killing the thief in Yixian that day, so he turned his face blank and asked rhetorically with a feigned anger.

"Well, that's not really. The old man said seriously. Chai Rong was slightly stunned by the question, and shook his head awkwardly.

"Then take it!" the old man Tao commanded loudly as he posed as an elder.

"In this way, thank you father-in-law!" Chai Rong, Zhao Kuangyin, and Ning Ziming looked at each other and bowed together gratefully.

Tao Zheng immediately smiled, arched his hand and returned the salute, and then added loudly: "The water should almost be boiled, the three sons might as well go to the bath and change their clothes first." I'll have the next few of the neighbors' descendants carry a few barrels to serve on the side, and don't think they're clumsy!"

"Let's do it ourselves, come by ourselves! You just have to get hot water and wooden barrels ready!" The three brothers had escaped for so long in succession, and the sour smell had already come out of their bodies. I heard that there can be a hot bath to wash, where will I be polite?

That Tao Zheng didn't waste much time, and immediately asked the neighbor's descendants to help clean up an empty house and use it as a bathroom. A moment later, three huge wooden barrels, temporarily borrowed, were placed side by side in the room. The hot water that the neighbors helped boil overnight was also poured into the bucket by the descendants in a basin, and in a blink of an eye, they each filled most of it.

The three brothers, Chai Rong, Zhao Kuangyin and Ning Ziming, thanked everyone again. Walked over to the barrel, stripped off the clothes and shoes that had been spoiled, and quickly climbed into the barrel. As soon as the hot water came into contact with the skin, it immediately made a comfortable sound.

The hospitable descendants turned their heads and snickered, and handed over clean cotton hand towels, loofah pulps, and soaphorns. Then they said hello and stepped back.

Although the three brothers were a little embarrassed, everyone knew that the opportunity was rare, and after tonight, the next opportunity to take a bath would probably be at least half a month later. Therefore, I quickly cleaned up the miscellaneous things in my heart and washed them seriously.

When it was almost washed, the old man Tao Zheng sent someone to bring three sets of clean clothes. Although it is a temporary patchwork, it is not too new, but it is also the same as the inner and outer clothes, and the shoes, socks and headscarves are complete. lest the three of them be suspicious, the clothes they had taken off earlier were also left in the bathroom for them, and they did not move at all. It's just that there is an extra burlap wrapping skin next to it, so that the three brothers can clean it up more easily.

Since the old man Tao Zheng has been delicate and considerate to such a point, if the three brothers still suspect him with ulterior motives, they will be too suspicious. Therefore, no one was polite, changed into clean clothes and shoes and socks very neatly, and returned to the main room together to thank Tao Laohan in person.

Old Han Taozheng had already prepared a banquet, said a few polite words, and then arranged for the three of them to sit down. I also temporarily invited a few elders from the village who were of higher seniority and looked quite dignified to accompany them. The big guy was talking about the strange things in the outside world, and the atmosphere in the room became cheerful in the blink of an eye.

When you are full of wine and food, it is already the middle of the night. The old man asked the young man next door to help clean up the leftovers, and personally led the three guests to a specially vacated room to rest. There are beds, mosquito nets, basins, lamps and candles, pillows, and bedding are all clean and neat.

The three brothers were already exhausted, thanked them, sent the old man Tao Zheng away, and immediately collapsed on their respective beds, easily unwilling to move a single bit. However, exhaustion turns into exhaustion, and suddenly from a state of escape to a guest at someone else's house, it is difficult for people's nerves to adapt quickly. Therefore, they all collapsed on the bed for a long time, and they couldn't sleep.

Zhao Kuangyin thought about the tragic death of Jing Niang and how to successfully take revenge. In Chai Rong's heart, he instinctively began to plan the future arrangements. Ning Ziming is the youngest among the three brothers, and it stands to reason that he should have the least worries and fall asleep the fastest. In reality, however, it is quite the opposite. At this moment, although he was motionless with his eyes closed, in his mind, he was already galloping.

"This is Taojiazhuang, and that woman's name is Tao Sanchun! I was beaten by her for stealing other people's melons!" What happened that night, like a big drama in the pear orchard, kept replaying in front of his eyes. "I didn't tell the people here that my surname is Ning, everyone thinks my surname is Zheng, and my name is Zheng Ziming......"

Tao Sanchun, Zheng Ziming, Chai Rong, Zhao Kuangyin, several names added together, making him feel familiar. Vaguely, what just happened has become familiar.

Tonight's events seem like I've experienced them before!

When the hell did I go through it, and why can't I remember it?

These things have definitely happened before!

How is this possible!

I must be dreaming.

Am I dreaming now, or have I dreamed the same thing before?

How could I repeat what had happened in my sleep!!

Zhuang Zhouxiao dreams of butterfly ......

Thinking about it, he seemed to see the other one stand up and slowly walk out of the room.

Outside, the sky was already bright.

Tao Sanchun looked at Zheng Ziming with a smile, and his eyes were full of autumn waves.

Note 1: Mr. Wuliu is Tao Yuanming's number. Tao Yuanming was unwilling to bend his waist for five buckets of rice, so he resigned and became a hermit. In the book, Tao is his descendant, and he is not willing to insult his ancestors.
