Chapter Eighty-Four: Rebirth
After lunch, Wang Jiajia accompanied Wang Lanlan out for a stroll, and Dongfang father and son also went back to the room to rest. Liu Jiabao came to my side to help me sell bean curd, and then told me the story about Mu Niangzi four years ago.
It turned out that Mu Niangzi was a person from Tiansheng Palace, nicknamed the beautiful snake in the rivers and lakes, and in order to seize the "Shenlong Sword Spectrum", she and the silver fox dressed up as an eloped loving man and woman to "escape" to Wolongling, and just happened to "meet" with Dongfang Hong's brothers and sisters.
Wang Lanlan took pity on their plight and persuaded Dongfang Hong to bring them into Shenlong Villa. Later, the silver fox continued to sow discord, and the beautiful snake also had an ambiguous relationship with Dongfang Hong many times, which made Wang Lanlan misunderstand and leave with grief and anger. The silver fox also abandoned the beautiful snake on the grounds of entering Beijing to catch the exam.
Dongfang Hong took pity on the jade, and fell in love with the beautiful snake for a long time, and told her many secrets of Shenlong Villa. And the beautiful snake took advantage of Dongfang Hong's trust to steal the key, stole the "Dragon Sword Spectrum" and fled.
Dongfang Hong was very angry when he knew that he had been deceived, and traced the whereabouts of the beautiful snake everywhere, and heard that she went to Chang'an, and chased after her thousands of miles away, but she was plotted by the beautiful snake and put in prison. It was Xiao Mu who begged King An to let him regain his freedom.
A year later, Shenlong Villa and Tiansheng Palace competed for the position of the leader of the martial arts alliance, and the two met again in the Cliff of Despair, Dongfang Hong mercilessly killed the beautiful snake with a sword, and only then did he earn back face for himself.
Seeing that the beautiful snake was dead, the silver fox jumped off the cliff with her in her arms, only to be pulled up by Leng Yanshan, the palace master of the Heavenly Saint Palace. Subsequently, the court killers colluded with Dongfang Xiong also swarmed up, and the Tiansheng Palace was completely annihilated.
It wasn't until May this year that Xiao Mu found out the secrets of Shenlong Villa for more than ten years, and Dongfang Hong knew that the silver fox was still alive, but he had lost his memory and became a doctor in Xiangzhou City, named Li Huichun.
"Hey, actually, Senior Brother still gave his true love to Sister Xian'er back then, I thought that Sister Xian'er would stay in the villa, who knows, she turned out to be a spy sent by the Heavenly Saint Palace.
The senior brother knew that he had been deceived, and he was so angry that he fell seriously ill and vowed to break Sister Xian'er's body into ten thousand pieces. However, when she really died under his sword, he was very sad, especially when he saw Dongfang Xiong use a trick to destroy the Heavenly Saint Palace, he felt even more guilty for three years. ”
Liu Jiabao preached, and sighed again and again.
When I heard Uncle Fang tell the story of the rivers and lakes, I talked about the sporadic fragments of it, and the overall content was how the beautiful snake was treacherous, and was finally killed by Dongfang Hong's sword, fell into the cliff, and died without a whole body.
At that time, I also clapped along with the other audience members. I'm afraid that even Uncle Fang himself didn't expect that the demon girl and beautiful snake in his mouth would be the chivalrous white cloud fairy in his other story.
Everyone will have a different identity, it can be a good person or a bad person, because everyone has a last resort.
Mu Niangzi told me that she had never seen her father since she was born, and she stepped into the rivers and lakes after her mother died when she was more than twelve years old.
How can a twelve-year-old girl survive in the rivers and lakes, maybe at the moment of her life and death, Leng Yanshan, the palace master of the Heavenly Saint Palace, gave her a chance to live.
In order to repay her kindness, she only did many involuntary things with the reputation of a demon girl. In order to make up for her conscience, she also used the name of the White Cloud Fairy to act chivalrous and righteous, and became a heroine respected by everyone.
And now, that's all in the past. She is tired and just wants to live the life of an ordinary person. So, she got married and became the proprietress of this inn......
"Jianghu, why are you still in a daze? Are you still selling out of this tofu today? Ah Wu cleaned up the table, looked out the door, and became worried.
I smiled bitterly and said, "I'm afraid it's hanging." It's too cold today, there are few people who come to the store to eat, this tofu is not a must-eat every day, as long as there is rice at home, boil a little porridge can deal with a day, who wants to come out and suffer from this cold? ”
"It's cold, hehe, come in." A woman laughed and ran into the inn.
I thought that a guest was coming, and I was overjoyed, and when I saw that it was Wang Jiajia and they were back, I couldn't help laughing: "Is it cold?" How's the catch? ”
Wang Lanlan sighed in the palm of his hand: "Many stores are closed today, and there is nothing to visit." What about my brother? ”
Ah Wu pointed to the backyard: "They have all gone back to the room." ”
Wang Lanlan bit her lip: "They really live here?" ”
"Hehe, yes, the master lives in room No. 9 in Tianzi, and the hero of the East lives in room No. 10 in Tianzi."
"Hmph, I don't like your new owner very much, if it weren't for Sister Xian'er's sake, I wouldn't be living here. Go, get me a basin of hot water, and send us some more charcoal. Wang Lanlan commanded.
"Yes, hehe, everything is according to the woman's orders." Ah Wu nodded and bowed, and hurriedly went.
"Then you should rest early." Wang Jiajia said with a smile.
The two were reluctant to say goodbye, I thought Wang Jiajia would go first, but she came to my stall.
"Brother Jianghu, how is it? How many are left? ”
Liu Jiabao lifted the lid of the bucket and took a look: "It's too much, I see, even if you sell it until dark today, I'm afraid you won't be able to sell it out." ”
"Hey, how do you talk?" I gave him a gentle elbow. People who do business are willing to listen to auspicious words, even if they know that today's goods are not easy to sell, but it is always unpleasant to hear it so bluntly.
Liu Jiabao covered his mouth: "Did I say the wrong thing again?" Then you have to tell me what you can say and what you can't. I promise to do it. You look at Sister Xian'er's matter, I have been holding back for a long time. I recognized her a few months ago as Sister Yuhe, and I didn't even tell my senior brother. ”
"Okay, I know you're righteous enough. Then help me figure it out. There are so many tofu bean curds left, what should I do? I asked.
Liu Jiabao scratched his head, squeezed his two eyebrows together, and suddenly, he clapped his hands: "Yes, I'll buy them all for you, won't I?" ”
"You buy?" Wang Jiajia asked suspiciously: "Do you want so much tofu bean curd?" ”
"Yes, your restaurant makes high-end dishes, and you can sell fried tofu with shallots for five cents?" I laughed too.
"Sister Wang, have you gone to the county office?"
"I'm going."
"Is there still soup soup in the field outside?"
Wang Jiajia nodded: "Well, I built a shed, and there are many people gathered there." ”
"You say, those of them eat steamed buns and drink porridge every day, don't they get tired of eating?"
I glared at him with disdain: "You are a rich child, how do you know the suffering of the poor?" If you're hungry, it's good to have a stutter, what does it matter? ”
"If you can add tofu and bean curd today, won't they have a happier meal?" Liu Jiabao asked with a smug face.
I pondered his thoughts: "What do you mean ......?"
"Ah Wu, go, take all the tofu in your back kitchen, plus his box, and fry it, as well as the bean curd, and send it to the county government gate together, so as to improve the lives of those poor people who eat relief." Liu Jiabao said arrogantly, seeing that I was suspicious, he took off the money bag on his body and threw it on the table: "This money should be enough, right?" ”
Ah Wu opened the money bag and looked at it, happy: "Enough is enough, this is enough to buy him tofu for half a year." ”
"That's good, then in the next few days, if your tofu can't be sold, let them cook it all and send it to those poor people." Liu Jiabao held his head high, as if he had become a chivalrous hero.
Wang Jiajia looked at Wainunu: "You are so generous, does your father know?" ”
Liu Jiabao's small eyes rolled: "I'm doing good deeds, doing good deeds and accumulating virtues, and I still need him to agree?" My mother donates more money to the temple every year, and I don't dare to say a word. ”
He is telling the truth, I have also heard my A-Niang say that most of the female celebrities made by A-Niang were bought by Liu Jiabao's mother-in-law, Zhao Niangzi, and donated to Yunyin'an. The masters of Yunyin Nunnery recited a few verses of those objects and gave them to the good men and women who came to pray for the Buddha. Of course, it is not given away for nothing, the incense money is naturally indispensable, and then the incense money is used to buy rice and porridge, and it has also rescued many people in distress.
"Alright, that's it. I've been out for a long time, and I should go back, otherwise my mother would be in a hurry. Let's go! Fu Bo, please tell Sister Xian'er and let her take good care of her groom. Also, Sun Chenxian, I'll come back to you tomorrow when I'm free! Liu Jiabao greeted each other and walked out of the door with his small body.
"This kid is a big ghost!" Fu Bo smiled: "It is said that dragons give birth to dragons, phoenixes give birth to phoenixes, and mice are born to make holes. ”
"Who says children follow their father's lead? This Liu Jiabao steadily followed his mother's temperament. ”
"Well, that's true."
I took out the capital of the tofu from the money bag left by Liu Jiabao, handed over the rest to Fu Bo, and then moved the remaining two layers of tofu to the back kitchen.
"Brother Jianghu, this ...... Here you go. Wang Jiajia took out a delicate purse from her arms, bulging, and didn't know what to pretend.
"For me?" I thought I had misheard, so I took it happily, only to feel a piece of warmth, and opened it to see what kind of purse it was, and inside it was clearly a small and delicate copper hand stove, with a layer of embroidered bags on the outside.
"Is it warm? I see you get up so early every day to grind tofu, and your hands are frozen red. Wang Jiajia said, showing a little distressed look.
My heart warmed, is she caring about me? Didn't you ignore me some time ago? Why are you so kind to me all of a sudden?
"I embroidered this bag by hand, I went to ask this stove several times, I just bought it, there are charcoal cakes in it, and the stall owner said that it should be no problem to burn for an hour."
"Okay." I smiled with satisfaction, not to mention how precious this hand stove is, this love alone is enough to withstand the harsh winter. I gently grabbed her hand and held it on the stove: "Your hands are so cold, please warm them up." Oh, by the way, this is the earring I originally gave you, do you still want it? If you don't like it, I'll buy you a new one. ”
Wang Jiajia smiled shyly: "You don't put it on for me, I don't know if it's good or not." ”
I saw that her ears were empty, and it seemed that I had already reserved a place for the earrings, so I clumsily put them on her.
"Is it pretty?" Wang Jiajia tilted her head, and the two silver leaf-shaped pendants opened two beautiful circles of light.
"Beautiful." I'm a little crazy. I've known Wang Jiajia for so long, I've never seen or thought she was so beautiful.
She was still wearing a long red dress and the same ginger jacket she had worn last winter. The clothes have not changed, the hairstyle has changed slightly, but the whole person seems to be reborn.
