Chapter 25 The three heroes of the Nguyen Clan join the gang
Look closely, this person's face is childish, who else can it be if it is not Ruan Xiaoqi?
"Xiao Qi, what a handsome underwater kung fu!" Chao Gai was amazed. Although he himself is also good at water, he is self-aware, and it is difficult to catch fish in the water empty-handed, which is much worse than the ability of the Ruan brothers.
"Hehe, I was born by the lake since I was a child, but I have underwater kung fu, and the rivers and lakes are for me to swim!" Ruan Xiaoqi was very happy to be praised and kept fluttering.
This kid was proud, Ruan Xiaowu in the back crooked his eyes, pointed behind him and reminded: "Seventh brother, you have to be scared!" Don't go looking for a boat yet. ”
"Oops, my ship." Ruan Xiaoqi turned his head, and with a strange scream, he got into the water.
Chao Gai hurriedly looked behind him, and the guards he brought saw that he had fallen behind, picked up the oars and rowed hard, but unfortunately he had never been a captain, and the boat was dripping and slippery, and the more anxious he was, the more he made mistakes, and he actually scurried towards the deep water.
Far from the south, a long way has been drawn!
Ruan Xiaoqi shouted and chased, and everyone laughed when they saw this!
This is just a small episode, Ruan Xiaoer told interesting stories about fishing over the years. The boat is fluttering, fluttering, and the people on the boat are talking and laughing.
Before I knew it, three small boats were parked on the edge of dry land!
The land area surrounded by reeds is small, and the willow trees are thick and thin. There are several fenced courtyards and thatched houses, and a few broken fishing nets are drying on bamboo poles in front of the door, which shows that the three brothers are living in poverty.
This is caused by Ruan Xiaowu and Ruan Xiaoqi, two gamblers!
"I'm home!" Ruan Xiaoer took the lead in jumping ashore, reached out to help Chao Gai carry things, and smiled a little apologetically: "The humble house is simple, brother don't dislike it." ”
"My own brother, what did the second brother say." Chao Gai laughed with a slight reproach.
"Oh, look at us!" Ruan Xiaoer patted his head, his face full of apologies.
"After chatting for a long time, I forgot to ask my brother's name."
"That's it, it's all you, all the way!" Ruan Xiaowu glared at Ruan Xiaoqi fiercely. This is really not a lie, Ruan Xiaoqi is lively by nature, and halfway through he either catches fish with a net or catches water ducks in the reeds.
That's it, just come out of the water and interrupt other people's conversations.
"Hehehe, Xiao Qi is lively, don't blame him." Chao Gai smiled and rounded. Then he hugged his fist at the three brothers: "Under the surname Chao single name cover." ”
"Chao Gai? Isn't it Chao Baozheng from Dongxi Village? ”
"What? Brother turned out to be the Tota Heavenly King Chaogai? ”
The Nguyen brothers were shocked when they heard Chao Gai's name, and then they were overjoyed.
Chao Gai is a private businessman on Jingdong Road, and he is the most righteous. has been famous in the rivers and lakes for a long time. His brother had heard Wu Yong mention it many times in the past few years. I longed to make friends for a long time, but I hated not to see him. hurriedly stepped forward to salute: "Oh, Chao Tianwang, my brothers have seen Brother Tianwang." ”
Chao Gai hurriedly stepped forward to support the Ruan family brothers, and his face was full of friendship for a long time: "Hey, you don't need to see the outside like this." I often listen to Jia Liang talking about the Ruan brothers in Shijie Village. I have long wanted to come to visit the three of them, don't complain that the foolish brother is late. ”
"What did my brother say? Hurry up, please, I'm going to get drunk tonight. Ruan Xiaoer, Ruan Xiaowu pulled Chao Gai and dragged him home.
Among the three brothers, only Ruan Xiaoer became a family, and the other two were singles. There were some vegetables growing in the fence yard, and a child outside the yard was playing with the big yellow dog. Seeing his father return, he was very happy and jumped up.
This little ghost has a strong nose, smells the smell of mutton, and runs to the food box carried by the guard to watch. He peeked at his dad as if he was asking.
Ruan Xiaoer was embarrassed to look at the old blush, and glared at the child.
Chao Gai glared at Ruan Xiaowu and Ruan Xiaoqi complainingly. In the puzzled eyes of the two bachelors. took a knife and cut a large piece of mutton and handed it to Xiao Ruan Liang: "Come, eat!" I treat myself to a treat and eat with my belly open. ”
Ruan Xiaoer threw a grateful look at Chao Gai and patted the child's head: "Little rabbit cub, forget what Lao Tzu taught you?" ”
"Thank you, bearded uncle!" The little leather boy looked back and forth, and made a salute to the cover.
Chao Gai grabbed Ruan Xiaoer, who still wanted to reprimand, touched the child's head and picked him up. The little kid was not afraid of life at all, staring at his beard. I looked at my dad again, as if he was making a comparison.
"Mother, we're here for you!" Before entering the hospital, Ruan Xiaoqi shouted. With laughter and swearing, an old woman and a young woman stepped out of the kitchen.
Under the introduction of the Nguyen brothers, the two sides met the ceremony.
"Mother, I didn't know that today was your birthday, and I didn't prepare any gifts." Chao Gai took out a gold ingot from the package and stuffed it to Sanruan's old lady.
I'm afraid of twenty or thirty taels of gold ingots!
The Ruan brothers had never seen so much money, let alone a fifty-year-old woman, who was a little overwhelmed: "Baby, it's too precious, you take it back." ”
Chao Gai was willing to take it back, and hurriedly waved his hand and persuaded bitterly: "Hey, old lady, keep some jewelry, and save the rest for the fifth brother, and the seventh brother will take the daughter-in-law for use." ”
Sanruan knew how much Chao Gai was squandering money, and he also persuaded him to accept it. His three sons all said so, and the old man stopped insisting.
"Mother, it's a coincidence today, I brought wine and meat, just to celebrate your birthday."
Chao Gai took the food box from the guard's hand and handed it to the Nguyen brothers. The tables and chairs were moved under the big willow tree, and the roast mutton, fat chicken, and sauced duck were arranged. Freshly made fresh fish soup, fried trash fish, and a few vegetables are served. Fifty years of old wine is poured to the full, facing the sunset to toast the old man's birthday.
is worthy of being the mother of Ruan's three heroes, she is really unambiguous, and she doesn't blush or pant even after drinking a few bowls of wine. The lively scene in front of her made her smile.
The happiest is the little leather child of Ruan Xiaoer's family, with chicken legs in his left hand and duck legs in his right hand, with lamb chops in his mouth, his face full of oil, jumping up and down. It is true that the baby is suffering, and the family life is poor, and it is good to eat a good meal during the New Year's holidays. I've never seen such a sumptuous dish as it grows so big.
Seeing Ruan Xiaoqi holding chickens and ducks, the fight with the little leather boy is enough to prove it. Although the three brothers have great ability, they are difficult to beat heroes for a penny.
There was laughter and laughter in the fence yard, until it was time to hold the lamp.
The old lady went back to rest early because she was happy, and she had eaten a lot of wine. Ruan Xiaoer's Hun family took the baby to the back room. The two guards went to Ruan Xiaoqi's house.
In the fence courtyard, only Chao Gai and Sanruan remained.
Today is the fifteenth day of May, and a bright moon shines like day.
"Brother, why did you come to our brothers?" Ruan Xiaoer poured wine for Chao Gai.
"Let's sell it first!" Chao Gai peeled off the flowers and threw them into his mouth, shook his head with a smile: "In order to get to know you, Wu Xuexue asked me to come to you to buy fish." ”
"Oh, how can such a thing happen? Let's hear about it. "The three of them came to be interested.
"Yes, it's to buy fish, twenty pounds of big carp." Chao Gai picked up the conversation. This is really not a lie, Wu Yong had such an idea before leaving. It's not to blame Wu for having a lot of eyes in his heart, who wants to do the thing of losing his head?
"More than twenty pounds of carp?" Ruan Xiaoer was stunned for a moment, then shook his head with a wry smile: "We can't hide big fish in the shallow water of Shijie Lake, and we can still catch them a few years ago." But now don't talk about twenty catties, even ten catties of big fish have to rely on luck. I caught that big golden carp today, and I haven't seen it for three or two years. ”
"Well, not really." Ruan Xiaoqi burped: "If my brother came here a year, let alone twenty catties, there are dozens of catties of carp." ”
"Oh, why is that?" Chao Gai asked knowingly.
"Xiao Qi, don't hold on to death." Ruan Xiaowuyi pushed and grabbed Ruan Xiaoqi, who was a fat chicken, and sighed: "Brother doesn't know anything. Shijie Lake connects Liangshanbo, with a radius of 800 miles, what kind of big fish are not in it? But since a gang of thieves came there more than a year ago. Seal off the lake. Fishermen are not allowed to come close, and my brother and I haven't set foot in it for nearly a year. ”
"That gang of strongmen has three leaders, the big leader is Wang Lun, a white-clothed showman. The second leader touched Tiandu Qian, and recently the third leader Yunli King Kong Song Wan ......"
I don't know if the Ruan brothers drank too much or vented their frustration through alcohol. One after another, they said that Liangshanbo was domineering and cut off people's lives.
Chao Gai is no stranger to this bridge, and from time to time he inserts a few sentences why he doesn't go to Liangshan. The narrow-minded white-clothed showman Wang Lun was naturally scolded by his brothers.
"Hey, if anyone knows my brothers, it won't be in vain." Ruan Xiaoqi drank with a red face, slapped the table and sighed.
Shichiro, didn't I come? Chao Gai didn't bother to turn around and smiled.
"Oh, I just cared about venting, and I forgot my brother." Ruan Xiaoqi shook his mouth, patted his chest and shouted: "Wherever our brothers are useful, even if they are instructed, they can also go to the sword mountain and the sea of fire." ”
"Okay, I'm here to invite the three of you to join the gang." Chao Gai slapped the table and explained his intentions: "Three brothers, are you willing to do a deal of 100,000 yuan?" ”
"Build! How not to do it? The three Ruan brothers immediately expressed their position.
"It's the people's fat and people's ointment that the Daimyo's Mansion Liang Zhongshu scavenged, 100,000 Birthday Gang, do you dare to do it?" Chao Gai stared at the three brothers and continued to ask.
"Fuck it, kill corrupt officials." The three brothers did not hesitate, without any fear.
"Have you drunk too much? Don't and sit back at the critical moment. ”
"Look at my brother when he says this, the three of my brothers say the same, and they have no regrets even if they die." Ruan's three Xiong stood up one after another, patting their chests and loudly reassuring. Ruan Xiaoqi took a chopstick and snapped it, his face full of determination.
"Okay, you can take these." Chao Gai slapped the table, opened the package and took out six gold ingots of fifty taels from inside, and quickly divided them into three parts.
"One hundred taels of gold, settling-in fee!"
"Brother, this ......" The Ruan brothers were a little stunned when they had never seen so much money.
"Take it, Wu Xuexue also has it!" Chao Gai smiled and pushed in front of the three of them. When the three brothers heard the name of Wu Xuexue, they did not postpone it anymore and accepted it one after another.
Chao Gai informed the three brothers of his plans and invited the three to the village for a detailed discussion. The three brothers said yes, indicating that they would go together after the arrangements were made.
Ruan Xiaoqi was in a particularly comfortable mood, and when he looked up, he saw the bright moon hanging in the sky, his eyes rolled, and he shouted that he wanted to worship as a brother of the opposite sex.
Chao Gai has long had this will, so naturally he will not refuse!
Immediately put up the incense case, and the four old men took the incense to kowtow to the north under the witness of the bright moon, worshiped eight times and drank blood wine to worship as brothers.
Chao Gai is the oldest, and naturally became the eldest brother.
The brothers hated to see each other late and ate a few wines, until late at night, and they came back together!
