Chapter 21: The Howling Dog
Back on the third floor, Chen Xiang and Lao Liu continued to write books, which was the foundation of his merits, and he didn't dare to delay.
This writing was written until after the palm lamp, and the jade rabbit hung high.
It wasn't until Han Yunshang came to personally deliver supper, and told the father and son to rest early, that Lao Liu gave up and turned around and went to sleep in the next room.
Since he bought the inn for five hundred yuan, Chen Xiang no longer sleeps with Lao Liu.
Because, sleeping with you does not give merit!
..
When the golden crow pressed the jade rabbit under him again.
sky
It's lit up!
Chen Xiang woke up early that day, and he was afraid that the lame beggar would come to test him early in the morning.
thereupon
As soon as the sky was blue and faint, he went downstairs to the door and waited.
At this time, Lao Liu and the others hadn't gotten up yet, only some sounds came from the kitchen in the backyard, and it was estimated that the one-eyed old Wang was boiling porridge.
The one-eyed chef Lao Wang has a big waist and a round waist, a fat body, and a black blindfold in his left eye.
Chen Xiang only knew that his surname was Wang, and when he saw him, he shouted Uncle Wang.
Lao Wang is usually in the backyard, chopping wood, cooking and showing up less, and he doesn't talk much.
Chen Xiang didn't know much about Lao Wang Huiniang and the two of them, and only heard Zhao Tianlong say that they were old people in the store, and they came earlier than him.
..
"Wang, Wang"
Coming to the door from the third floor, Chen Xiang had just sat down on the threshold of the inn door, when a little black milk dog barked and ran over from the backyard.
The little milk dog ran over and offered Chen Xiang with his little head, and he was in a very intimate state.
Chen Xiang's face was happy, and he picked it up.
Although this little milk dog is not big, Chen Xiang is only five or six years old at this time, a little milk dog hugs a full arms, the loss is to sit on the threshold, if he is standing, he really may not be able to hold it.
The little milk dog wagged its tail in his arms, seemingly very happy, Chen Xiang looked down at the puppy in his arms, and muttered to himself:
"Since you're messing with me, I should always give you a name, seeing that you're all jet black and have no variegation, why don't you just call you [Mo Yuyi] What do you think?"
"Wangwang"
"Don't like it? What about [Cangyi]? It is said that this is the name given by Qianlong! ”
"Wangwang"
"Don't? That... How about calling you Erlang God? Chen Xiang thinks that it is also good to raise a dog and call it Erlang God.
Little Black Dog: ....
"Oh, you like the name?" Seeing that the little milk dog didn't bark, Chen Xiang thought it liked the name.
"Woo Woo T
"Okay, good, since you like it so much, then let's call it this name, Erlang God"
Little Black Dog: ....
Chen Xiang is just talking to himself and laughing to himself, he really gave the little black dog such a name as Erlang God, not to mention that the mother under Huashan disagrees, and the old Liu next to him will not agree.
Good fellow, your uncle is a dog, what is your mother?
Another reason,
Chen Xiang didn't dare to give the little black dog this name, because he was afraid of being deducted merit.
He is not afraid of heaven and earth, but he is afraid of being deducted merit!
Finally, after thinking about it, he casually gave the little black dog a name of [Big Injustice].
Easy to remember!
He held the little black dog here, sat on the threshold and waited, and not long after, Zhao Tianlong also got up.
After cleaning up downstairs, he went to the backyard to move a large pot of porridge to the door with Lao Wang.
Lao Wang and the new young owner nodded and went back to the backyard, but 14-year-old Zhao Tianlong leaned on the door frame and complained to Chen Xiang:
"Agarwood, don't you want to recruit two people anymore, since the name of your benevolence spread, gradually some people have come to our inn to eat and stay, now although we are busy, but, but what kind of cat demon, we have to plan early."
"Well, I know, you go and feed the big injustice" Chen Xiang casually perfunctory.
He didn't really want to do business, the reason why he bought the inn was for the pot of porridge at the door, for twenty or thirty merit points a day.
Zhao Tianlong: ...
Although he was speechless, Zhao Tianlong still took the little black dog and turned around and went to the backyard.
Zhao Tianlong went to the backyard with the big injustice, and Chen Xiang waited in front of the door alone.
..
It was bright and the beggar, who had slept all night, smelled the porridge and came over.
Chen Xiang looked at the beggars who rushed over and found that most of them were old people who had come in the past two days.
This is not surprising, after all, [Ci Congee] has only been made for three days, and it is normal that not many people know about it.
Anyway, no matter whether they are new or old, as long as they drink porridge, they will leave a merit value for Chen Xiang.
..
Chen Xiang sat on the threshold here, and before he could wait for the test of the lame beggar, he waited for the old man first.
"Virtuous son-in-law, why are you sitting on the threshold?"
A voice suddenly sounded in his ears, Chen Xiang turned his head, and saw the three of Sun's father and daughter.
Originally
Zhang San went back to Yangzhou yesterday to report to Sun Yuanqing on the situation of disaster relief and poverty relief.
Today, Sun Yuanqing took his eldest daughter Sun Qiao and youngest daughter Sun Qian to [Liu Agarwood Inn] to tell Chen Xiang about the specific situation, second, to return the gift, and third, to recognize the door.
"Lord Taishan is well" saw Sun Yuanqing, and Chen sounded to say hello.
changed the eight-character name post, and officially decided on the family affair, and Chen Xiang's shouting of Mount Tai was completely fine.
"Haha, good, good, Qian'er, call someone quickly" Sun Yuanqing was dressed in a light pine smoke-colored robe, with joy on his elegant face, and said to his little daughter with a smile.
The eight-year-old "official" Sun Qian is dressed in jade, wearing a peony pink pleated skirt, and she is a gift.
"Xiaojun" Chen Xiang replied.
He was more than a meter old, dressed in a decent robe in crow blue, his face was delicate and handsome, and he bent down slightly to salute, and suddenly there was an indescribable sense of chic and dignified.
After Sun Qian saw the ceremony, the pink on her little face was cute, but she didn't know if it was reflected in the dress or ashamed.
Whether it was Ying or ashamed, Chen Laogou saw it and shouted in his heart that it was too punishable, if the lame beggar tested him with this, he might really have no chance with immortals in his life.
After seeing the ceremony, Chen Xiang invited the father and daughter of the Sun family into the store, sat and chatted with them, and asked Zhao Tianlong to make tea and call Lao Liu over.
The four of them sat down on the first floor, Sun Yuanqing turned his head to look at the inn, and nodded:
"It's a good place, but the way of the merchant is inferior after all."
As he spoke, Sun Yuanqing put the book he was holding on the table, patted it, and said:
"This is a few unique books I have collected, as well as a subset of scriptures and histories, etc., you can ask your father to interpret it for you when you are free.
Although you are young, your intelligence is rare, and if you devote yourself to studying, you will achieve something in the future, and it is better than spending years in business."
Sun Yuanqing's words were sincere and affectionate, and Chen Xiang knew that he was really doing it for his own good.
It's not that Sun Yuanqing is good, but that the Sun and Liu families are married, and they are both prosperous, and he is also thinking about the Sun family.
If Liu Shenxiang is really called outside the Donghua Gate, supplemented by the wealth and connections of the Sun family, he will not be able to enter the Privy Council, and at that time, the entire Huainan East and West Road, his Sun family will not go sideways?
