Chapter 15 Straw Bale County Order
readx;
Wu Xi really wanted to hit someone. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The anger in his chest burned his internal organs very painfully, and he really couldn't help it.
He should be a scholar, with gray hair, in his forties, a tall and thin figure, his face is sallow due to long-term malnutrition, he is wearing a Confucian robe, he looks like he is some years old, the original blue has been washed and white, but it is covered with patches.
The craftsmanship of sewing patches is very good, and every stitch is very fine, which must be cherished on weekdays, which shows how much he values the reputation of intellectuals.
With a square scarf on his head, a pair of shoes has disappeared because of the fight just now, and his body trembles slightly, it seems that the situation just now really scared him.
As a Confucian student, he has this confidence and this pride, but kneeling for help has a kind of sadness of a rabbit dying and a fox hurting.
Just because of fifteen yuan to hand over his life to others, it seems that the reason is worth pondering.
Wu Xi suppressed the anger in his heart and asked, "Why?"
The set of actions just now revealed the pride of the reader, and at this time kneeling on the ground and begging for someone, it was somewhat helpless.
A proud person should have proud capital, when all the capital is lost, he can only complain and be angry, scold his mother, and after being happy, he still has to return to his heart and do what a man should do.
"I, Meng Tong, am familiar with the Five Classics, I don't dare to boast of being rich in five cars, and I still dare to be full of economy, but the years are not good, every time I rush to take the exam, Donghuamen has never been named.
After many years, I was already disheartened, but I couldn't give up, I couldn't achieve anything in my life, and I had to rely on the care of my old wife to show up, and finally exhausted my body.
After Lang Zhong was diagnosed, he said that it was a rare disease, and he needed a precious medicinal material to continue his life, and I owed her in this life, and I exchanged my life for her life, hoping that Gongzi would be fulfilled. ”
Sure enough, he is still a person who has not forgotten his roots, but the truth is the same from ancient times to the present, the illness is like a mountain, and no matter how much money there is, he has to rush to the hospital.
The anger in Wu Xi's heart subsided slightly, he took a step forward, helped Meng Tong up, and said: "Everything is inferior, only reading is high, this sentence is heart-wrenching, I know that it is not that piece of material, but for this sentence, I still have to drill into it."
Mr. is talented, but he is unlucky, and he is a proud person, and it is a good story to be able to practice himself in this way to extend the life of his old wife.
The small is not talented, although there is no Wanguan family wealth, but based on Mr.'s family affection for not giving up his life to exchange, then what is the silver tael? Money is originally something outside the body, life does not bring, death does not take it, this is twenty taels of silver, I hope to solve your eyebrows, you still keep your life, and the old wife for life is the meaning of life, otherwise you saved her, and let her lose the meaning of life?"
"The old man is stupid and dull, and he can't live the essence of life, the son's words made the old man suddenly, and he didn't dare to give up his life lightly, so he went back to serve his wife, and he was a cow and a horse, and he wanted to give her a decent second half of his life. ”
As he spoke, he was already in tears, grabbed two ingots of silver, thanked Wu Xi again and again, and then got up and left.
"Cao Dutou, do you still think those people in Broken Gold City are stupid?"
Seeing Meng Tong walking away, Wu Xi asked.
"It seems that the meaning of a fool is very broad, and the results from different angles are different, and what Brother Wu said just now seems to be for the old man, and he has been taught. ”
Cao Hui also hugged his fists and saluted, and Wu Xi accepted it very generously.
"Cao Dutou, we have to speed up, within half a month, there will be a battle in Broken Gold City, Wild Fox Mountain, and Siwu City, the winner will be rewarded, and the loser will be punished, and the worst result of punishment is death, you had better be prepared." ”
Wu Xi said very heavily, and seemed to have made a lot of determination.
"Why so fast?" Cao Hui asked anxiously.
"I can't wait, every time I want to do things perfectly, there are always some things that hurt my mood, and I'm afraid that things like this will always happen, so I want to get out of this mess as soon as possible.
Do you know? There used to be a kind of gambling entertainment in the place where I used to be, called playing mahjong, four people, four square cities, like a battlefield fight, but each time only one person is the winner, and the other three parties have to give money, this is the punishment.
The other three parties did not stop playing because they lost a hand, but pushed to start over, and he said that the reason for not winning the previous hand was bad luck.
When the next hand is not yet Hu, he still does not go, the reason is that he has lost too much, and he has to return to the point before he is willing to stand up.
What I mean is not a question of whether to return to the original, but a question of reversing and restarting, I really don't have time to reinvent and restart, I only play this card in Siwu City, and Hu must be me. ”
"Why are you so confident, do you think Cai Rong will help us?" Cao Hui said.
Cai Rong was the commander of the army of Siwu City, responsible for the third line of defense against Western Xia, with 2,000 men under his command.
Although I felt that Wu Xi's theory was very strange, he didn't ask too much.
"During the New Year's holidays, some places will invite the opera troupe to sing to pray for good weather in the coming year, and there are many elderly people with small Mazha sitting below to watch very fascinated, although they have seen it many times, it is to enjoy this kind of life. ”
Wu Xi said for no reason.
"The bull's head is not the horse's mouth. Cao Hui said angrily.
He said Cai Rong would choose to sit on the sidelines. Ergouzi said.
"How do you know?"
"People who watch the play are always watching from the sidelines, not going up to perform. ”
"It's hard work to talk to you, and it's not fun to guess at all. ”
handed over all the goods to Cao Hui, Wu Xi and Ergouzi found an inn and stayed, ate a little casually, and fell asleep in a hurry.
On the third day, Cao Hui came over and said that he had a three-entry courtyard in the east of the city, and if Wu Xi didn't dislike it, it could be used as a temporary foothold.
Wu Xi also had this intention for a long time, always living in the inn What's going on, wanting to buy a property, and feeling that he will not be here in the future, he will have to move after a few days, which is very inappropriate.
Before I went to my new home to take a look, someone from the yamen came to invite me, saying that the county had invited the lord to discuss important matters.
Discuss a fart, he is a grass name, and he can't get into the hall of elegance, how can He De bother the county magistrate to discuss something with him, Wu Xi concluded that it was because of the matter of Nanmen Grass City.
Then Cao Hui should also be blamed, what is the matter with talking to himself?
I wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it, it was inappropriate, how to say it, Hu Yihu is also the highest magistrate of a county, and if he offends him, there will definitely be no good fruit to eat.
In later generations, Wu Xi knew that it was better not to go against the court in everything, and it was as easy for those adults to pinch you to death as it was to pinch an ant to death.
Although he was very reluctant, he agreed with a smile on his face.
"Big brother is careful, Hu Yihu definitely has no good fart. Ergouzi said after him.
Wu Xi shook his head, wanting to get out of his disorganized mind and reorganize his brain.
"Don't worry, it's a good deal, we'll go on with it, you go clean the house, and I'll be back later." ”
The second dog was led to the new house under Cao Hui's hands, and Wu Xi walked around the street alone, and waited until it was time for lunch to visit Hu Zhi County.
Led by the subordinates to enter through the side door, came to the inner house, and passed through the moon gate, he saw Hu Yihu sitting on the stone table in the pavilion, the table was full of various dishes, Wu Xi looked at it but had no appetite.
"Wu Xi, the grass people, knocked on the adults, and got the invitation of the adults, and the small ones were sincerely afraid, and they prepared a little courtesy, hoping that the adults would smile and accept them. ”
Wu Xi stepped forward, and without waiting for the introduction of his subordinates, he started filming as soon as he was a sycophant.
"Don't be inhibited, just talk about home, come, sit down and eat together. Hu Yihu's eyebrows and smile made people very uncomfortable.
Wu Xi thanked him and sat in the guest seat, and there should be no less etiquette to go, otherwise people will think that this is a stunned young man, and it is not good to chase the dog with a stick.
"I often hear Cao Dutou mention you, saying how you are good, this county has long had the heart to win over, but there are many mundane things, there has been no chance, I heard that you came to Heiwu City, and immediately ordered someone to invite you to come over to talk about family life, and at the same time prepare a little wine, talk about your heart. ”
Hu Yihu's words are very official, which means that it is the meaning of the court to pull you in, and it has nothing to do with someone Hu, even if it is the court that benefits, he did not put a penny in his pocket.
For such a hint of Chiguoguo, one thing Wu Xi wanted to say was, go eat.
obviously wants to take a profit, but now he is talking about some scenes in a dignified manner, which is disgusting.
Thinking about it, something is wrong, if he wants the interests of the grass market, he doesn't have to look for himself, the policy is ordered by the county, what does it have to do with him, even Cao Dutou is the executor, what kind of green onion is he.
Wu Xi is also a second monk who is at a loss now, and depending on what he says, the soldiers will come to block it.
"Adults love, grass people keep in mind, dare not forget, grass people are a rough people, with a cloth clothes to accept the adults to carry love into the hall, it really makes the grass people honestly afraid, if the adults have something to do small, although the command is it. ”
"If you are really a cheerful person, since Brother Wu is so refreshing, then this county order will not be hidden, I want you to help me win this battle. ”
Hu Yihu said.
Sure enough, it's not a straw bag, and it shouldn't be a straw bag, the end of the straw bag county order is generally very miserable.
Anyway, since you are seen through, then you don't have to pretend to be stupid, and it is better to solve it on the table than to stab a knife in the back.
Wu Xi immediately stood up, shook his sleeves, clasped his fists and said: "My lord is wise and martial, and he will definitely be able to fight a battle. ”
"You mean it's not negotiable?"
Seeing that Wu Xi refused to help him, Hu Yihu was a little angry, threw the chopsticks in his hand, and asked.
