Chapter 17 Tea House Sells Tea
Erlang shook his head and made a rough gesture, meaning that the water was for people to drink, but when he saw them in the field, he came over to take a look.
Chen Xiaonian called him to the side under the pretext and asked him quietly: "You beat Chen Xiangwen again last night?" ”
Jiro shook his head, puzzled.
She pointed to the human face printed on the cow dung, "You really didn't hit it?" ”
Jiro glanced at it casually, then withdrew his gaze and shook his head to indicate that he didn't know.
Wang was obviously relieved, "I'll just say, how can my uncle beat people indiscriminately." ”
"Mother, why don't you just talk about Erlang, why don't you say that in the middle of the night, what did Chen Xiangwen do in my field?"
As soon as he was reminded, Wang remembered this stubble. Looking at the crops that were rising quite well, Wang was distressed.
"If they dare to spoil my land, I won't be done with them!"
Erhu's father came over with a hoe, saw Erlang, and praised Wang: "Sister-in-law, I know why your family's land can suddenly grow crops and why it grows so well." ”
Chen Xiaonian chuckled in his heart, "Why?" ”
Erhu's father looked at Erlang and said with a smile: "Others are planting with some river water, your Erlang went to the mountains to carry water before dawn, this is mountain spring water, so particular, this crop does not grow well?" ”
Chen Xiaonian and Wang also laughed, and did not explain much to him.
When I went home, I had some breakfast casually, and after resting my chopsticks, Chen Xiaonian ran out, found the bamboo tube that Erlang had made a few days ago, and put the dried willow bud tea in it.
Jiro finished breakfast and came to help with these. When Wang finished washing the dishes and came out, the two of them were already ready to go out.
Wang told them the location of the teahouse, "I won't go today, I'll go to the patriarch for a while." ”
Chen Xiaonian was a little surprised.
Wang can't say that he is timid and afraid of things, but he has always been cowardly and forbearing, and he will only cry and cry when he encounters something, sighing, but today he suddenly has an idea.
"Mother, why don't you call the third aunt to go together, the third aunt can speak, and if there is anything unclear, I can help you."
Wang waved his hand, urging them to go out early and come back early.
Chen Xiaonian went to the river first like Erlang, Erlang was suspicious, and planned to wait for her to go into the water for a while to take a closer look, why there were so many fish in front of her.
He went into the water first, and Chen Xiaonian handed him the bamboo basket.
"I'm a little unwell and won't be in the water today."
Erlang frowned slightly, stared at her for a moment, took the bamboo basket and went down to the river, and after a while, the bamboo basket was already full.
Chen Xiaonian smiled and gave him another one on the ground, looked at the fish jumping around, and said happily: "I can still sell it for a good price today." ”
Erlang couldn't speak, but the corners of his lips were pursed up.
When they arrived in the town, the two of them did not go anywhere else, but went straight to the restaurant, where the shopkeeper waited there early, took the fish and put them in the water, and there were still a few alive.
"It's really strange, it stands to reason that the fish will die after a while out of the water, why is there always one or two fish that you bring alive every time."
The shopkeeper whispered to them, "Although they are dead, the fish is not fishy at all, and it tastes the same as if they were alive." ”
Chen Xiaonian said with a smile: "You are also honest in the shopkeeper, if you say that these fish are dead, give us less silver, we can't say anything, and you can save some silver." ”
"Not really. The most important thing in doing business is to talk about credit, if there is no credit at all, my restaurant will not be open for so many years. ”
Today, there are a few palm-sized fish, which is the most suitable size for making bamboo tube fish, and the shopkeeper is happy, and he gives a few more silver coins.
Leaving the restaurant, according to the position given by Wang, the two found the teahouse. There were few people in the teahouse, and the guys were all lying on the table and napping.
The shopkeeper saw them standing at the door, kicked the guy, and the guy ran out with a stiff smile, "The two of you come in and have a cup of tea?" The price is not expensive, and it is all good tea. ”
Erlang pestle remained in place, not saying a word, but it was obvious that he had already expressed his attitude.
Chen Xiaonian thought about it, raised his feet and walked in. She called out to the guy who was about to pour the tea, and went straight to the shopkeeper.
"Shopkeeper, my father used to work in the town thanks to your care, my mother said that you are a good person, it just so happened that my family dried some tea, and specially brought it to you to taste."
Who knew that the shopkeeper just waved his hand after listening.
"No, no, I don't accept tea here."
Chen Xiaonian was stunned.
She hadn't said anything yet.
It's all here, and I have to let him taste willow bud tea. Chen Xiaonian opened the bamboo tube and just poured out the tea leaves, and the horse shopkeeper was even more impatient.
"If you say no, don't take it, let's go."
Chen Xiaonian ignored it, went to fetch a teacup, put a small pinch of willow bud tea, and took hot water with his buddies to flush it.
"Shopkeeper Ma, you taste the product first."
"You can't understand people, do you?"
The shopkeeper looked bored, pushed the cup of tea out, and suddenly, the cup of hot tea spilled towards Chen Xiaonian.
At this moment, Erlang, who was standing at the door, flashed over and dragged Chen Xiaonian to his side.
The teacup was shattered to the ground, and it was still steaming hot.
It's boiling hot water, and if it were poured on her, it would be disfigured.
The shopkeeper looked down, "Ah! If you break one of my teacups, you'll have to lose money! ”
Chen Xiaonian was angry, "What kind of money to lose?" You broke the cup yourself, and you asked me to pay for it instead? ”
The shopkeeper snorted coldly, "I saw you shattered, this teahouse is mine, I let you pay, you have to pay!" If you don't pay me the money today, you won't want to walk out of my teahouse. ”
Isn't this a robbery!
"You!"
Chen Xiaonian didn't expect him to be so unreasonable.
She thought that more things were better than less, and shouted that Erlang was leaving.
"You don't want to leave if you don't pay for the money?"
The shopkeeper gestured, and the man stopped in front of the two arrogantly.
Scold.
seemed to sneer, and the guy was picked up by Erlang with one hand.
The guy was so frightened that he screamed and croaked.
"Hit someone! It's a mess! Come on......"
Erlang's eyes sank, he lifted the man, and threw it on the horse shopkeeper as if he had lost a grain bag, and the horse shopkeeper was knocked to the ground, and he kept screaming.
Sensing that there was a person in front of him, the shopkeeper just wanted to call for help, but when he saw that this person was Erlang, he instantly shuddered.
I saw Erlang raise his hand, and the shopkeeper held his head and begged for mercy, but Erlang just put Chen Xiaonian on the table and took back the bamboo tube containing willow bud tea.
Erlang had her back to Chen Xiaonian, she couldn't see Erlang's expression, but she clearly saw the horror in the shopkeeper's eyes......
I was probably frightened by Erlang's cold face.
