Chapter 0068: Old Acquaintances

Li Quan shook his head, turned around and went back to the back room, Li Zhen was anxious, and followed up again: "Eldest sister, how long have you not seen your brother-in-law?"

Li Quan sat down and took a sip of tea and said, "Ah Zhen, there are some things you don't understand. ”

"I don't understand anything, you sue me, what happened?" Li Zhen faintly felt that the matter was not as simple as the eldest sister's wine shop.

Li Quan sat for a long time before sighing and saying: "Soon after he came to Luoyang, he mixed with a group of Dunhuang scholars, and did not study, saying that reading was useless, and he had to find a way. ”

Li Zhen was speechless, and said for a while: "But my brother-in-law was not like this before!"

"This is called knowing people and knowing faces, I have been married to him for a few years, but I don't know that he still likes to drink flower wine, Ah Zhen, I really regret coming to Luoyang. ”

Li Zhen persuaded her again: "But this is not a way! The eldest sister doesn't care about him, the more he indulges himself, and in the end he can't get his heart back, eldest sister, you better go home and talk to him! Anger is not the way." ”

"I also knew, but there was no one in the store at night, and the two men refused to stay at night for fear of being beaten by scoundrels, so I had to stay and guard the store. ”

Li Zhen asked again: "Sister, why are there scoundrels harassing the wine shop, have you found the reason?"

He knew that everything had a reason, and these scoundrels would not come to harass the liquor store for no reason.

"How could I not know? Someone took a fancy to the liquor store and wanted to drive me away. ”

"Who is it?"

"It is a Luoyang head snake, it is said that there is a lot of power in Luoyang City, this person opened a tea shop in Nanshi, called Wangchun Tea House, not far from here, I have gone to find them, but their shopkeeper resolutely does not admit that there is such a thing. ”

Li Zhen knew that he had taught this group of scoundrels a lesson today, and the other party would definitely use new countermeasures.

This kind of thing can't be delayed, the more it drags on, the more troublesome it is, he must do his best to solve this matter for his sister, otherwise they will be unable to prevent it.

Li Zhen said: "I will go to negotiate with Wangchun Tea House now, this matter must be resolved immediately." ”

Li Quan was worried about his safety, and hurriedly said, "Why don't you go with your sister." ”

Li Zhen shook his head, "I'm just going to inquire about the situation first, and I don't need my sister to come forward for the time being!"

Li Zhen came out of the wine shop and walked directly to the south, and the tea shop and the wine shop were separated by two streets.

Compared with the liquor store, the scale of the tea shop is much smaller, with only five or six shops, which is also related to the fact that tea drinking in Datang has not yet been fully popularized.

Luoyang, rich or poor, likes to drink wine, and drinking tea is only the privilege of large families, one is that tea is more expensive, and many people are not used to drinking tea.

Li Zhen looked for two laps and didn't see the sign of Wangchun Tea House, he was wondering, his sister shouldn't be mistaken, at this time, there was a shop in the middle of his tea shop that was not listed, maybe it was this.

Li Zhen walked forward quickly, only to see a man standing in front of the shop, looking up at something, Li Zhen arched his hand and smiled: "Ask, is this Wangchun Tea House?"

"Exactly!"

As soon as the man turned around, both of them were stunned, "Why are you?"

Li Zhen didn't expect that he knew the man in front of him, it was the palace guard who was with Gao Yanfu at the beginning, it seemed that his surname was Zhang, and he couldn't remember the specific name.

"It turned out to be Brother Li, when did you come to Luoyang?"

The man was overjoyed and patted Li Zhen on the shoulder, "Don't you remember me? I'm Zhang Xi! ”

Li Zhen remembered that it was called Zhang Xi, and there was an injured guard named Sun Li, so he hurriedly arched his hand and said, "It turned out to be Brother Zhang, I haven't seen you for a long time!"

Zhang Xi laughed, "I haven't been in a good mood for the past two days, but when Brother Xian arrived, I was in a good mood immediately. ”

He invited Li Zhen to the tea house, Li Zhen saw the sign of Wangchun Tea House in the store at a glance, and was a little stunned, could it be that this Wangchun Tea House is Zhang Xi's industry?

"Brother Zhang, is this your shop?"

"It's a small shop, barely able to make ends meet, please come in. ”

Zhang Xi invited Li Zhen into the shop, went to the back room to sit down, and asked the guy to serve two cups of the best Mengding Maojian.

Li Zhen was a little embarrassed, if Wangchun Tea House was Zhang Xi's shop, then he injured those scoundrels yesterday, wouldn't it be sent by Zhang Xi?

Zhang Xi saw that Li Zhen had something to say, so he smiled and said, "Do you want to say anything to Brother Xian?"

Li Zhen smiled bitterly and said, "I really don't hide it from Brother Zhang, the Yashiju wine shop was opened by my eldest sister." ”

"What!"

Zhang Xi jumped up, his face full of astonishment, "Yashiju is your eldest sister's shop?"

Li Zhen nodded, and Zhang Xi slapped himself twice, "I'm a bastard, what have I done, I'll take revenge!"

Zhang Xi sat down and said apologetically: "First of all, I want to apologize to Brother Xian, I really didn't know that the Yashiju Wine Shop was opened by Sister Ling, otherwise I wouldn't have done this kind of thing if I was killed, I will give Brother Xian an explanation for this matter, and I will compensate for all the losses of Sister Ling." ”

Li Zhen hurriedly waved his hand, "There is no need for Brother Zhang to compensate, this matter will be forgotten in the past." ”

Zhang Xi was anxious, "How can it be forgotten, the bird still knows how to tie the grass and tie the ring, no! I'll go and apologize to Sister Ling." ”

"Don't blame those who don't know, Brother Zhang, don't apologize anymore, otherwise I will be uneasy in my heart. ”

Zhang Xi felt guilty and moved in his heart, let out a long 'hey!', sat down slowly, and explained the situation to Li Zhen.

"This matter has nothing to do with me, someone took a fancy to your eldest sister's shop, so they asked me for help, but I didn't expect that now the wine shop was actually taken over by your eldest sister, don't worry, I will never harass the wine shop again, and I will apologize to Sister Ling another day." ”

Li Zhen laughed, "It seems that Brother Zhang has a lot of talent!"

Zhang Xi smiled bitterly: "What's the way, people like us have nothing to do with power, but we just know a few market snakes." ”

Li Zhen came over with a sword, and wanted to persuade Wangchun Tea House to let go, but he didn't expect to know, since Zhang Xi had promised not to harass again, Li Zhen got up and said with a smile: "I just arrived in Luoyang yesterday, there are a lot of bad things, I will visit my brother another day." ”

Zhang Xi was willing to let him go, "Since the virtuous brother has come to Luoyang, of course the virtuous brother has to pick up the wind and wash the dust for the virtuous brother, and if you don't delay the big things of the virtuous brother, you will go to have a glass of wine, but don't say that you are not available." ”

Li Zhen couldn't get rid of it, thinking that it would be okay to drink a glass of wine, so he had to agree, "Since that's the case, then it's better to be respectful than to obey your fate!"

Zhang Xi picked up Li Zhen in the largest Jiangzuo liquor store in Nanshi, saying that he only drank a glass of water and wine, but invited more than a dozen friends to accompany him and chartered a floor, which made Li Zhen smile bitterly.

"I knew that Brother Zhang was so extravagant, so I wouldn't agree. ”

Zhang Xi smiled, "I'm also the head snake in Luoyang, I don't have any other skills, but I have a lot of friends, don't underestimate these people, they all have heads and faces in the Nanshi area, if the business of the virtuous brother wants to do well in the Nanshi, they are really indispensable to help." ”

Li Zhen was taken aback, and secretly thought in his heart, 'Isn't this the underworld of Datang?'

"How is Sun Li now?"

Sun Li was another guard who was seriously injured, and was rescued by Li Zhen, Zhang Xi smiled and said: "He is better than me, he was just promoted two days ago, let's put it this way! ”

"He's in charge of prison?"

"He has been appointed as Dali Cheng and is in charge of the prison, does his father have a good brother?"

"I see!"

Everyone was drinking and chatting, the lobby was very noisy, Zhang Xi waved his hand, "Listen to me!"

The lobby suddenly fell silent, Zhang Xi pointed at Li Zhen and smiled at everyone: "My brother was my Zhang Xi's savior, he just came from Dunhuang yesterday, and he is going to be exhibited in Luoyang in the future, and I hope you will take care of me in my face." ”

"Da Lang is polite, your brother is our brother, in a word, if there is any difficulty, just say it. ”

"Now there is a problem! Nanshi Yashiju Wine Store was opened by my brother and sister, but I, a bastard, will take revenge and find someone to harass the wine shop, I only found out today.

Hey, it's hard to be ashamed, everyone help me Zhang Xi, please take care of Yashiju's business in the future, I toast to everyone!"

He picked up the wine bowl and drank it all, and everyone laughed, "It's a small thing, I must help!"

Li Zhen was moved in his heart, it turned out that Zhang Xi gave him a pick-up in order to take care of his eldest sister's business.

He also picked up the wine bowl and got up and said: "Brothers, junior brother Li Zhen came to Luoyang for the first time, he doesn't understand the rules, if there is any rudeness, I hope you will bear with me, I will respect you first for this bowl of wine!"

He drank the wine as well, and everyone praised him for his ability to speak, when a young woman in a long purple dress and a beautiful young woman slowly stepped forward with a glass of wine.

She flattered her eyes and threw Qiu Bo, and said to Li Zhen angrily: "Which of my apprentices can't do things, they harassed Sister Ling's wine shop, they deserve to be beaten, this cup of wine slave family came to apologize to Li Shaolang." ”

Li Zhen was stunned, those scoundrels turned out to be this woman's subordinates, worthy of the era of Wu Zetian! Women are so brilliant.

Seeing that this woman was only in her twenties, he hurriedly picked up the wine glass and said with a smile: "May I ask this eldest sister's surname?"

"I forgot to introduce it. ”

Zhang Xi got up and said with a smile: "This beautiful lady is the proprietor of the Nanyuan Martial Arts Pavilion, nicknamed Purple Rose, you can just call her Qiu Niang, the virtuous brother can't see it! ”

Qiu Niang covered her mouth and chuckled, glancing at him with charming eyes, "Da Lang has put gold on my face again, how can I be one of the best? It's just to teach a few bad gangsters and eat together, but the little girl has a characteristic, she likes to make friends with a sword, I don't know if Li Shaolang appreciates his face?"
