Chapter 011 Something Happened at the Xiangye Inn He took the cotton clothes and ran away
The next morning, the sisters freshened up. The maids were busy bringing breakfast, and everyone finished eating. Grandpa asked the maid to call Zhang to discuss things. Zhang Yunfeng saw the maid coming to call him and said that his grandfather was discussing things with him. So he hurried to his grandfather's side.
Zhang Yunfeng entered the house and saw that the little brothers were talking about Cheng'er. Zhang Yunfeng said: "Grandpa, how did you rest last night?" Grandpa smiled: "It's okay to rest, it's just to cause trouble to Zhang Gongzi." Zhang Yunfeng said: "Grandpa doesn't have to be polite, it's important to discuss Miss Min's affairs." Grandpa nodded and said, "Since the incident happened at the Xiangye Inn, let's ask the boss about the situation first." See how the boss reacts, and every word he says must be carefully recorded. Pretend to find the shopkeeper in front of the boss, see how the boss reacts, and then listen to what the guys say. You adapt to the situation, observe the words, and withdraw if it doesn't work. Zhang Yunfeng said: "Okay! I'm familiar with the Xiangye Inn, let's go!" Everyone nodded in agreement. Grandpa said: "Let Min Tianlan and Min Tianjie go together." Lan Jie said, "Yes, grandpa!" Grandpa said: "Although your kung fu is good, you must not act recklessly." Lan Jie and the others nodded and said goodbye to their grandfather.
Zhang Yunfeng took the intimate scholar Li Ming, and the four of them came to the Xiangye Inn. I saw that the Xiangye Inn had been restored to its original appearance. It was not Xiao Er who greeted them, but the boss. When the boss saw Zhang Yunfeng coming, he hurriedly greeted him, and said, "Hello Zhang Gongzi, please inside." With that, the owner took them to the best room.
The boss hurriedly asked everyone to sit down, and asked the guy to pour tea for the four guests. Zhang Yunfeng said with a smile: "Why didn't the boss see Xiao Er today." The boss said: "He has something at home, and he can't come these days." Zhang Yunfeng sighed: "Today, my friend came and wanted to have a drink with him, and everyone was happy." The boss went to invite Hong'er and asked her to sing music for us, so that she could have fun with wine?" The boss smiled: "I'm afraid she won't be able to come." As he spoke, the boss closed the door when he saw that there was no one outside, and then said, "Zhang Gongzi is not an outsider. You say this is strange, this little two has no parents and no brothers and sisters. When he came to me to beg for food, he was only a teenager, and I saw that this child was pitiful, so I stayed. Let him be a few years later, this kid has eyes and works well. I let him do the front office. I worked like this for a few more years and saved some money. But last night, a guy in my store saw Xiao Er and Hong'er buying wedding supplies. Xiao Er said to the guy: 'When everything is done, please invite everyone to come and drink the wedding wine.' But Hong'er is a dusty woman, if you marry such a woman, you also need a sum of money, how can a guy have so much money. ”
As he was talking, there was a knock on the door. The boss hurriedly stood up and went to open the door, and saw that it was the guy in the store. The guy said, "Boss, there is someone downstairs looking for it." The boss nodded and said, "You go first and say that I have a guest here, and I'll come later." The man nodded and went.
At this time, the boss's daughter Lan Xin and her friends brought fine wine and exquisite dishes. Zhang Yunfeng said with a smile: "These delicacies are different from the past? Aren't they made by Lan Xin?" Lan Xin smiled: "Neither Xiaoer nor Hong'er can come to cheer up your sons." I saw Brother Zhang bring his friends to Xiangye Inn, and I personally went to the kitchen to cook the dishes for everyone. Let's taste it, I don't know if it's delicious?" Zhang Yunfeng smiled: "I've never tasted the dishes of Lanxin roast, so I'll try it first?" Zhang Yunfeng ate it and said: "The taste is really good, not salty, not light, slightly sweet, and slightly sour." The two brothers also tasted it. As he spoke, he helped Lan Jie and the others with chicken wings. And they all began to eat. Lan Jie and the others hurriedly said: "The taste of the burnt is very delicious, and Miss Lanxin's craftsmanship is really good." The boss was very happy to hear everyone praise her like this. The boss smiled and said, "My daughter, who only reads some books on weekdays, embroiders when she is in a good mood, and throws it aside when she is unhappy." Her mother left early, and I spoiled her. If she can cook good food, the sun will rise in the west. Min Yuelan smiled: "Miss Lanxin's dish is really good, the boss didn't praise her, if you don't believe it, you can also taste it, can you fake it?"
The boss listened to these words, and half-convinced, picked up the chopsticks and tasted the dishes on each plate. Then he said: "Lan Xin, who did you learn the craft from? It's more than Daddy's craft. Lan Xinle said: "Dad, don't tell you, how do you eat?" The boss said: "It's better than my cooking." Lan Xin liked it when she heard it, and hurriedly said, "Dad, if you want to eat it, I will burn it for you every day." Zhang Yunfeng said: "Okay! I came here to let Lan Xin burn it for us to eat." Lan Xin's face was like a peach blossom when she heard this, and said with a smile: "Brother Zhang, I'm busy, you eat slowly!" After speaking, he retreated.
The owner and everyone were drinking and laughing. Suddenly, he remembered that someone was looking for him, so he said, "You are here as if you were at home, and you can tell me what you need." Today I am the East. Someone downstairs is looking for me and can't accompany you, please forgive me. Zhang Yunfeng said: "It's okay, you go and get busy, and we'll talk about it another day." The boss took the wine and toasted everyone, then got up and left.
After everyone had finished eating, the four of them came downstairs. Zhang Yunfeng saw that Lan Xin was settling accounts. He walked over and said with a smile: "Lan Xin, you have worked hard today." So saying, he took out the money and put it on the table. Lan Xin said: "Dad, I have explained, today we will be the east." "I won't take anything I said. Zhang Yunfeng said: "If you don't want to be my sister, just give it back to me, and I won't come from now on." Lan Xin knew Zhang Yunfeng's temper, and every time she came, she always gave more silver, but now she had two taels of silver, and when she saw him say this, she had no choice but to accept it. Zhang Yunfeng was very happy to see that she accepted the money, so he said goodbye to Lan Xin.
The four of them left the Xiangye Inn and went home. Everyone came to the house. Zhang Yunfeng said what the owner of the Xiangye Inn said word for word. When Grandpa heard this, he had an idea, and after everyone discussed it, they went back to the house to rest.
Let's say, the shopkeeper is red, and his heart is happy. I forgot about the kidnapping of ten girls. Seeing that these days are calm, I have become bolder. I don't want to leave Kyoto anymore. That night, Xiao Er went to tell the owner of the Xiangye Inn that he would marry Hong'er the day after tomorrow. Let's come over and have a good time. After the boss agreed, he asked Xiao Er to bring some vegetables back for Hong'er to eat. Xiao Er thanked the boss and left. Xiao Er drank some more wine. As he walked, he hummed a tune and went back.
When Xiao Er got home, he knocked on the door and said, "Hong'er, open the door quickly, I'm back." "I called for a long time and no one answered. I was really depressed, could this Hong'er fall asleep, so I had to put the wine and food on the carriage. Xiao Er knocked on the door again, only to see the door open by itself. Xiao Er met a masked man and said, "Hong'er, what the hell are you doing? Without saying a word, the masked man pulled Xiao Er in and closed the door.
Xiao Er was pointed at by the masked man, and he could say that he couldn't move. Pulled over by two masked men. Xiao Er saw that there were six masked people in the house, and saw that Hong'er was tied to a chair, and her mouth was blocked by strips of cloth, and she knew that something was wrong. Among them, a masked man said: "Hong'er has admitted that you have kidnapped ten girls. Xiao Er hurriedly said: "Girl, girl, what girl?" The masked man sneered: "Don't pretend to be stupid, let me ask you, that girl was abducted by you when the officers and soldiers fought with the knights that day." Someone saw you sprinkle white powder on that girl's face, where did the kidnapped girl go?" Xiao Er remembered the events of that day and was about to say.
Another masked man said: "Where is it sold, let's put it well, if you dare to talk nonsense, you will make Hong'er's beautiful face become a red line." As she spoke, she wanted to draw it down, but Hong'er was so frightened that she burst into tears, and thought to herself: "If we had left Kyoto earlier, it would have been like this, and maybe our lives would not have been saved today." "Come to think of this. I can't say what it tastes like, only tears.
Xiao Er knew that he couldn't hide it, so he had to tell the truth about the transaction with the proprietress of Cui Yinglou and sold the girl to Cui Yinglou. Among them, a masked man left and went for half a day before returning. The masked man said: "It's indeed in the Cui Ying Building." Another masked man said, "You dare to report to the proprietress and beware of your little life." With that, the masked men jumped out of the window. Xiao Er saw that the masked people had retreated, and waited until the acupuncture points unraveled on their own. Breathing a sigh of relief, he hurriedly untied Hong'er's rope. Hong'er took off the strip of cloth from her mouth.
Hong'er gasped and said, "Let's run away." Xiao Er said: "Where to escape?" Hong'er said: "Go to the countryside, now that we all have money, wouldn't it be good to buy a house and land to live a peaceful life?" With that, he came to the cabinet, took out the cotton clothes from it, pulled Hong'er and left. Hong'er sighed: "Are you stupid, what are you doing with these tattered cotton clothes? Hurry up and get the silver, otherwise they will be finished if they come again." Xiao Er said: "This cotton coat is full of silver and your valuable jewelry, and your clothes are a pity." Hong'er said: "Don't want those, now that you have money, you can buy it again." I am already thy man, and I feel uncomfortable when I see those garments. With that, Xiao Er took Hong'er's hand, walked through the back door, got into the carriage and galloped off the trail.
The masked man watched the carriage move away, and the masked man took off his black clothes. Zhang Yunfeng said with a smile: "Grandpa is like a god. Grandpa said: "They naturally fled to the path, this little two did something wrong, and was frightened by us, and it was impossible to report it." That Hong'er was frightened and said everything. The proprietress asked Xiao Er to kidnap ten girls in exchange for a red child, and the proprietress was naturally shrewd. Although Hong'er is delicate, after all, she is old, and she wants to send it away, but it is cheaper for Hong'er. The proprietress not only took advantage of it, but also did a favor. Zhang Yunfeng listened and nodded.
