It rains every year during the Dragon Boat Festival in the south, and this year is no exception, with intermittent rain that starts three days early.

When Hu Hou met Tao Hua, it was on the afternoon of the Dragon Boat Festival.

On that day, Hu Hou, who hurriedly passed under the overpass, found Tao Hua dressed in rustic style under the dim bridge cave, huddled tightly in the darkest corner of the bridge cave, with a pair of black and white eyes looking blankly at the passers-by.

After Hu Hou walked over, he turned around and shouted to Tao Hua: "What are you doing, you don't go home for the big holidays, and you run here to squat?"

His original intention was to scare and scare, but Tao Hua only looked up for a moment, and then curled up tighter.

"Is it angry with your family, or is it skipping school?"

"No, people were kicked out by others. ”

Tao Hua finally spoke, a fast and loud Sichuan-style Mandarin, full of spicy flavor.

Hu Hou immediately changed to Sichuan dialect and learned that Tao Hua was going to the south with her fellow villagers to work as a nanny, but the villagers secretly took away her salary, and the customers no longer hired her, so she lived on the streets without relatives and support.

Maybe it's the local sound, or maybe Hu Hou looks too secure, and he doesn't have anything to do with the treacherous and cunning big bad guys, Tao Hua finally followed Hu Hou home, so many people said that Tao Hua was picked up by Hu Hou and taken home.

Hu Hou later picked up Su Shu, the fat man and the ribs.

This year, Tao Hua was fourteen and Hu Hou was eighteen, and both parents were deceased.

Tao Hua first worked for someone else's flower shop, and later set up a small stall to sell flowers, while Hu Hou has been helping people handle documents.

It was still raining on the eve of the Dragon Boat Festival this year, and in the morning Hu Hou went to the talent market to take a turn, so he hurriedly held an umbrella and rushed back to the house he rented.

"What's wrong? Uncle Ma. ”

"Happy birthday, monkey!" The old man ran out of the grocery store, opened his mouth with only a few yellow teeth left, and congratulated Hu Hou, his face full of wrinkles was full of smiles, but the smile was as obscene as it was.

Hu Hou stepped on half of his feet on the stairs, almost unsteady, and fell down the stairs with a stumble.

"Uncle Ma, don't play with me, let's say, who owes you money again? Or do you have to pay the rent and utility bills in advance?"

"Monkey, am I like that?"

The old man felt insulted.

"Of course you are not that kind of person, you have rented a house for seven or eight years, usually in addition to urging rent and water bills, that is, urging rent and water bills, playing mahjong and losing the rent and water bills, buying ** lottery lost the rent and water bills, and the heart is unhappy and urging the rent and utilities;

"Then you say, who am I desperately saving money for?" Old man Ma was very angry, "These money are my granddaughter's dowry money in the future, and when the time comes, she will marry you......"

"Stop, Uncle Ma, first of all, I never thought of marrying your granddaughter, and secondly, it's hard to say whether you have a granddaughter or not, if there's nothing to do, I'll go first, you must know that I have a business of tens of thousands of yuan per minute, and I am very busy. ”

"Fart, isn't it just a fake, the certificate, it's the same as the real thing, look at your bird, you must have been driven away by the city management again, take it, this is a birthday gift. ”

The old man angrily stuffed a black wooden stick into Hu Hou's hand.

Looking at the black wooden stick in his hand, Hu Hou couldn't cry or laugh, and when he walked back to the room he rented, he found that there were still a few words engraved on the black wooden stick: "Moonlight Treasure Box".

Although the four big characters are painted with gold paint, it seems a bit high-end and atmospheric, but this word is really unsightly, crooked and random carved a few modern simplified characters, at first glance, it is a person who does not have much cultural level, shoddy and shoddy products, this kind of thing fools uneducated people can be, but Hu Hou is also a junior high school graduate, and he thinks he is also a cultural person.

When Hu Hou sat down to eat at Taohua's flower shop at noon, he was still thinking about the scene of Mi Lao's hair having a nervous convulsion in the morning.

"Brother, what are you thinking? Tao Hua looked at Hu Hou, who was laughing inexplicably, and asked.

At this time, the stereo of the small shop was playing:

Empty, I'm Xiaobai

I heard that you have returned

Why doesn't the phone turn on

Have you forgotten me?

......

After Hu Hou recounted what happened in the morning, Tao Hua was silent for a while, then gently put the bowl on the table, supported his chin with his hand and asked, "Brother, if I were a white bone spirit, would you marry me?"

"Ahem, ahem, this question...... Hawkers, eat, eat......"

Hu Hou held the bowl and tried his best to pick up the rice in his mouth.

Tao Hua stood up and gently brushed her hair behind her ears charmingly, and asked gently:

"Brother, am I pretty?"

"Beautiful. ”

"Am I fat?"

"Not fat. ”

"Am I short?"

"Not short. ”

"So where do I have a disability?"

"Nope. ”

"Then why don't you marry me? I'm twenty-two years old this year, how long do you want me to wait?"

An angry roar exploded in Hu Hou's ears.

"I'm ......," Hu Hou plucked his buzzing ears.

"Is it because of that Su Shu who sells cosmetics? I'm not as good as that vixen, you say?" another roar.

Hu Hou hurriedly got up and ran out of the store, and Tao Huadi cried behind him: "I sue you, after the Dragon Boat Festival, I will send invitations and order banquets, you have to marry if you don't marry......"

Running out of the flower shop, Hu Hou stopped and let out a long sigh.

"Monkey, what are you sighing for? I was forced to marry by your little beauty again, giggles. ”

Sister Zhu, the big boss of the "Pansi City" beauty salon city who went to the street to buy things, met Hu Hou with a decrepit face, and laughed gloatingly.

"No, thinking about how to wrap zongzi for the Dragon Boat Festival. ”

"Go to the dead fat man, he's at my house. ”

The big beauty in front, the plump and round buttocks, wrapped in a short black skirt, twisted up and down, making people think about it, no wonder the fat man's heavy color and light friend guy will be fascinated by their seven fox spirits, no, it should be seven spider spirits, "Pansi City".

"Fatty, fatty,......"

Standing in the "Pansi City" beauty salon city, Hu Hou shouted as if venting.

"Come on, come on. ”

The fat man was sweating profusely with a piece of flower cloth hanging on his head, and his hands were covered with rice, and he hurried out of the hair salon.

"Go home and make zongzi. "Hu Hou is very simple.

"Boss, hehe, what kind of zongzi are you wrapping, wait for me to wrap the zongzi here, and go back when I go home, save rice, save money, hehe." ”

"Fatty, don't eat inside and out, otherwise, hum. ”

Zhu Qimei, who had been supervising for a long time on the side, raised the barber scissors in her hand, so that Hu Hou and the fat man both involuntarily hurriedly clamped their legs.

"Little sister, don't scare our fat man," Second Sister Zhu appeared at the right time and said with a smile, "I've scared him badly, who will help our family do the work in the future." ”

Subsequently, the seven sisters of the Zhu family appeared one after another, Yingying Yanyan, Yingsheng Yanyu, or scared, or helped, the fat man stood among them and smiled innocently, with flattery, flattery with pride, and satisfaction in pride.

It's too wretched, this is a man's shame! A few little women have forgotten that the big husband can't be lewd, the poor can't be moved, and the mighty can't be bent, this kind of sister flower incident, I, Hu Hou, am the most experienced in dealing with it, why don't the fat people know how to let me, the boss, deal with it.

Alas, forget it, Tao Hua and Su Shu haven't done it yet, so they still go to find Xiaobei and pork ribs.

Ribs drove a motorcycle to solicit customers at the entrance of the village, and when he heard that he and Xiaobei were going home to prepare for the Dragon Boat Festival, he immediately stopped doing business and pulled Hu Hou to find Xiaobei who collected protection money.

“...... Do you know why my name is Xiaobei? Because my former boss was Xiao Dongbei, who fought all over the street and is still in prison, in honor of my boss, I took this name......

"Xiaobei, go home for the Dragon Boat Festival. ”

When Hu Hou came, Xiaobei was introducing his identity at a newly opened food stall.

"Boss, you're here. Boss, this is my current boss, what documents do I want to do in the future, I don't need to go to the relevant departments, just find my boss and give you a 20% discount. How about it, boss, you pay me the 300 yuan today, don't lose it, not only to ensure that no one dares to trouble you this month, but also to get 20% off** pieces......"

After collecting the protection fee and going to the supermarket to buy some things for the holidays, the three Huhou brothers went home, and at this time, the rain stopped all morning and began to fall.

As soon as I arrived at the rented house, I saw a beautiful girl with long hair and a pair of charming eyes, rushing into the rain and shouting anxiously: "Brother, brother, something is wrong......

"Su Shu, why didn't you go to work, something happened?"

Su Shu was also picked home by Hu Hou from the talent market, she and Tao Hua often quarreled, disagreed with each other, and each thought of currying favor or threatening Hu Hou, but at the critical moment, the two stood together together.

"I went to the morning shift today. Tao Hua went to the hospital......"

"What's going on?"

The three Hu Hou brothers were all taken aback.

"It's the Bull Demon King, just now when he passed by with the chengguan team, he saw Tao Hua put a few flower baskets that others were going to take at night outside the store, saying that it was to occupy the road, so he beat Tao Hua, just sent to the Seventh Hospital, no one answered your call, only the fat man followed him to the hospital, and he died in a hurry. ”

"Xiaobei, pork ribs, you go to the hospital immediately, I'll get some money and come later, bring Su Shu with you, and let her take care of Tao Hua more conveniently." ”

"Boss, do you want to gather people to go to the chengguan team. ”

Xiaobei asked inquiringly.

"Not for the time being, depending on the situation. ”

Hu Hou went back to the house in addition to taking the money, but also took the "moonlight treasure box" given to him by the old man Ma in his hand, when he wanted to use it, he couldn't find a suitable weapon, although the steel pipe was more convenient than this black wooden stick, but that thing was a little too eye-catching after all.

As soon as Hu Hou arrived at the hospital, he saw Liu Gang smoking outside the outpatient building, and without saying a word, he rushed up and beat him wildly, then turned around and ran.

Don't care about anything, collect some interest first, this is his consistent principle of life.

Liu Gang screamed and shouted to his subordinates, while staring at Hu Hou chasing, not caring about the heavier and heavier rain, and not caring about the subordinates who couldn't keep up.

The two finally stopped at a dead end.

"Whew...... Call...... Don't run away, Hu Hou, Tao ...... Tao Hua is his own queen...... Backwards and falls to the ground and touches ...... ...... who broke his head"

Liu Gang leaned against the wall, rubbed his beer belly and panted, and said to Hu Hou.

"Bull Demon King, that ...... Well, we're fair now, I don't ...... Don't bother you, you ...... You get out of the way. ”

Hu Hou took the "Moonlight Treasure Box" and said to Liu Gang with a pant.

"You ask Tao Hua to go back to the flower shop first in the evening, put the flower basket in place, and I will pay double the price. ”

"Hey, Bull Demon King, my Tao Hua was just admitted to the hospital by you, and you let her be discharged immediately, what do you mean?"

"I'll say it again, Tao Hua fell by himself. That flower basket is very important, I just knew that it was ordered by the third cousin of our district mayor's brother-in-law......"

"Pop" A bolt of lightning slashed down from the air and hit the wire next to it, producing a cloud of sparks, which frightened Liu Gang and Hu Hou was also frightened by this shining lightning, and was about to leave this place.

"Bang", another lightning bolt fell, just falling on the "Moonlight Treasure Box" in Hu Hou's hand, and then one after another lightning fell from the sky, forming a silk net, wrapping Hu Hou and the "Moonlight Treasure Box" into a silver light cocoon.

Liu Gang opened his mouth wide and looked at this strange scene in horror.

After a long time, the silver light cocoon formed by the lightning disappeared, and Hu Hou was gone.

......

"Liu Gang, where did Hu Hou go?"

"I don't know?"

"At that time, many people saw that it was you who chased him into a dead end, and he never showed up again, and you dare say you didn't know. ”

"I chased him into a dead end, but he was struck by lightning and then he disappeared, probably crossed, but I don't really know where he crossed. ”

"Honestly, our policy is to be lenient in confession and strict in resistance, and we hope you will answer our questions seriously. ”

"Wronged! Hu Hou really crossed the ......."
