Chapter 16 Swaggering through the city and into the city
The sedan chair carrying the statue entered the city of Huze, this matter is not big or small, at least the shopkeeper of the tea shed saw it and directly brought a bowl of tea to Zhu Tianqi.
"Carpenter Zhu, you haven't sent a statue to the city for a few days, come and come, you're tired of carrying it all the way, drink tea to quench your thirst!"
Zhu Tianqi shook his head and said: "I said Lao Feng, I also know that you are pious, bow down to the gods, and burn incense when you see the Buddha, but you don't know that I can't leave the sedan chair with my hand, I took your tea and fell on other people's gods, is it difficult for you to compensate?" ”
"Isn't this also a good intention, don't take it to heart," the shopkeeper of the tea shed was not rejected for the first time, and he was still smiling, "Which god is carrying today, where to send it, I'll see if I can burn this incense, so I can ask for good luck!" ”
Zhu Tianqi said: "This pillar of incense really can't be burned by you, the second master Guan Yunchang Guan who has been in a uproar in the city recently, you know, he is the one who is carried in the sedan chair!" ”
Leaving the words down, Zhu Tianqi stabilized the sedan chair and continued to enter the city. The house slave of Ganfu looked carefully this time, the sedan chair carrying the statue did not have much weight, but the sedan chair man still had to be stable, and he couldn't help but be suspicious, and shouted: "Slow! Do you say that this palanquin is carrying a statue? It can't be someone who is not clean, right? ”
Several house slaves got closer and closer, faintly surrounding the sedan chair. Ji Ri secretly said that it was not good, he didn't take any precautions, and the beating was small, and it would be bad if Uncle Zhu was implicated. Just as he wanted to throw down the sedan chair and entangle with the house slave, Zhu Tianqi said:
"What do I have to do with a few of you who don't open your eyes, don't block my way, the begonia wooden box that Gan County wants is still waiting for me to carve! Otherwise, I will carry the sedan chair to the county office and let the old man pass by, so as not to guess here! ”
Pulling tiger skin to do the big flag, several house slaves are very familiar. His own master has recently been concerned about the birthday of the Queen Mother, and he doesn't care about the rest of the miscellaneous matters, so Zhu Tianqi's words stubbornly repelled the thoughts of the house slaves to search.
Although the house slave at the head didn't dare to come hard, he still felt that something was wrong, and said: "Carpenter Zhu, our master is now relying on you, and our brothers naturally don't have anything to say." But Gan Shao also has to pay errands, you are kind-hearted, don't make it difficult for us, can you? ”
Zhu Tianqi laughed and said, "I thought it was a big deal, the statue in the sedan chair naturally couldn't see Sanguang on the road." If you don't feel too troublesome, go with me to the Chunlai Teahouse, and you will know what I carry in this sedan chair when you get to the place. ”
The house slave gritted his teeth and said, "Good! Sent by fate, we can't help ourselves, we are not unreasonable people, Lao Qi, you follow and take a look, and come back without a problem. ”
After some deliberation, the sedan chair finally entered the city gate. There were good things on the street when they saw the Ganfu slaves following behind the sedan chair, and they felt a little fresh, so they followed them to watch the play. Until the sedan chair fell on the Chunlai Teahouse, Li Fu came out of it, a little confused, and asked: "Carpenter Zhu, I haven't ordered anything in recent days, why did you send the statue to our teahouse?" ”
Zhu Tianqi said: "What about the storyteller? He just paid the fixed amount, and he still missed me a tael of silver! ”
When Li Fu heard this, he understood a little, probably because Mr. Storyteller wanted to worship the gods, so he specially asked Zhu Tianqi to create a statue of the gods. He went to the counter and took out a tael of silver, handed it to Zhu Tianqi, and said, "Mr. is not here, I gave this money, and there is a carpenter from Lao Zhu to invite the statue in!" ”
"Dumb, dumb! I said, why are you so stupid! Didn't it tell you to move the idol in when you got there? If you can't do it, if you can't do it, I'll get out of here when I'm done today! ”
Zhu Tianqi shouted at first, but Ji Ri didn't understand it yet, and he didn't react until he said that he wanted to move the statue in. He didn't take it, silently turned to the sedan chair, took out the statue of Guan Gong, covered his face, and buried his head and walked into the teahouse.
Li Fu watched Ji Ri move the statue like this, for fear of falling, and said: "Look at the road, be careful of tripping over the threshold, this statue can't be broken!" ”
Zhu Tianqi knew that Ji Ri deliberately blocked his face, pretended to be angry, and shouted: "You kid is really missing a heart, I carved the statue of Guan Gong for three days, and you just hold it like this?" Put it down for me, come with me to the doctor's office, I want to see if your hysteria is cured well! ”
Only then did Li Fu know that Zhu Tianqi had sent a statue of Guan Gong, and his mouth suddenly opened wide. The statue of Guan Gong was covered with a piece of red silk, and only the base could be seen to reveal a bright jujube red, and the colorful carvings had already shown the preciousness of the statue of Guan Gong.
"This little guy really deserves to be scolded, how many people want to see Guan Gong can't see it, it's your blessing that you can hold him! Carpenter Zhu, go and take him to see the disease, so as to save you any trouble in the future!" ”
Li Fu deliberately took the two of them away to see Guan Gong's demeanor first, and although the house slave Lao Qi already knew that the sedan chair was carrying a statue, his ears were full of Guan Gong's stories these days, and he also wanted to see Guan Gong's appearance. After those few good deeds surrounded him, Zhu Tianqi took the opportunity to slip away with auspicious days and went to Lu Qingzhou's medical hall.
When the two arrived at the hospital, a woman brought her child to acupuncture. The child was so frightened that he cried, making it difficult for Lu Qingzhou's scalded silver needle to fall in his hand. When the woman saw that an outsider was coming, her face was a little unbearable, and she said, "Don't cry, don't you want to be Guan Yunchang?" People who are hit by an arrow in their arms have to ride alone for thousands of miles, and they are afraid that they will not be able to be Guan Yunchang with a needle. ”
As soon as the child heard this, he immediately stopped crying, and although the tears were still there, the expression on his face was unbearable. After Lu Qingzhou tied the needle, he said to the woman: "The root of the disease has been removed from the child's sha, so I should tell him to drink more water and not play under the sun." ”
The woman thanked Lu Qingzhou, and then took the child and left.
Lu Qingzhou put away the silver needle and said to Zhu Tianqi: "Old Zhu, look at how powerful this Guan Yunchang is, he can make the child stop crying!" ”
The two laughed, making Ji Ri a little embarrassed, and said, "You know each other? ”
Lu Qingzhou said: "When I went out to study, the medicine box was made by Lao Zhu, and he bragged to me at that time that it couldn't be broken for ten years, but it cracked in the third year." ”
Zhu Tianqi said: "The medicine box I made for you is filled with medicine, but what bones and stones are you used to hold it, the box naturally can't bear it, can you blame me?" ”
Lu Qingzhou said with a smile: "That's the keel and the bezoar, it's very precious!" Don't talk about this, this kid on Jiri is really powerful, he said Guan Yunchang with one mouth, which made the whole city known, and thousands of people were empty! ”
Zhu Tianqi slowly turned his head and looked at Ji Ri: "Didn't you say that the storyteller was met when you were herding cattle?" ”
Ji Ri said: "It is also very reasonable for me to tell myself to relieve boredom when I was herding cattle. ”
Lu Qingzhou made a round and said: "The heart of guarding against people is indispensable, besides, after all, he is the one who wants to pull Ganlin off the horse, and it is also for your good to hide it, so as not to get involved and provoke yourself." Don't talk about that, Jiri, go see your mother, she's a little worried about you. ”
