At this time, there was a knock on the door.

Someone slammed the door at the door very rudely.

Xi Ge'er's interest was interrupted, and he was a little annoyed.

Li Youcai bypassed Xi Ge'er and opened the door.

An old man with a white beard and a middle-aged man watched them at the door.

Seeing that the door was opened, the old man was quite menacing, and glared at Li Youcai angrily.

Li Youcai was stunned and asked, "Who are you?" ”

The old man was full of anger: "I am Xu Lizheng." ”

The man standing next to the old man continued, "I am the owner of the house. ”

Li Youcai sighed nonchalantly, leaned against the door frame, and made way for half of the doorway, so that the three people in the patio could also see the two people outside the door.

Gan Qi was looking across Li Youcai and shouted at the door, "Second Uncle Zhang, Uncle Xu." ”

Hearing that it was Gan Qi who was familiar with him, Li Youcai gave his hand to greet him: "Fortunately, fortunately." ”

Uncle Xu Lizheng asked loudly: "You came to the capital yesterday, why didn't you go to me with your household registration to register and make a register, and you rented a house by yourself?" ”

Harm, what a big deal.

Li Youcai just wanted to speak, but the weak-hearted Gan Qi rushed up, and through the gap between Li Youcai and the door frame, he explained to Xu Lizheng: "Grandpa Xu, when I came with the three uncles last night, it was already too late, so I rented the house first and settled them.

I'm going to take them to you to register when I'm free for the next few days. ”

Xu Lizheng said: "Don't interject, you little hairy boy, I'm asking them." ”

Li Youcai smiled, and said with a very face-saving voice: "It was too late last night, so I will find a place to settle first." I thought that I would be free in the next few days, and I would go to you to register and make a register. ”

Xu Lizheng frowned, blew his beard, and said, "Where are you from, how long have you been in the capital, and do you have any household registration documents?" ”

Joke, he has been doing Xu Lizheng for twenty years.

Keep the bun alley tight.

found out how many people who don't have household registration documents and want to get through the customs.

These people, at first glance, are not serious and good people.

Ganchi was in a hurry.

He brought these three men back.

They don't have anything, let alone household registration papers, and they don't even have a set of clothes to change.

Now Xu Lizheng is questioning how the three of them can deal with it.

And here, Li Youcai calmly replied to Xu Lizheng's words, and said: "There was a locust plague in our hometown, and we had no food to eat, so we left our hometown with the villagers and wanted to come to Daqing City to beg for food." ”

"What about the household registration?"

"I lost my household registration documents on the way to Daqing City, and we are preparing to go to the household department today to make up for them."

When Xu Lizheng heard that there was no household registration document, he was even more excited, and said aggressively: "Without household registration documents, how do I know that what you said is true or false?" ”

Xu Li was looking Li Youcai up and down twice, and then looked at Lai San and Xi Ge'er who were standing in the patio behind him with suspicious eyes, and said slowly: "I listen to your accent, and there is a bit of Wu Guo's accent......"

Li Youcai didn't expect that a little Xu Li in Baozi Lane was so well-informed that he could actually hear his accent.

The man next to him heard Xu Lizheng say this, and he also helped on the side, and he cleared up his responsibilities and said: "That is, although you have rented my house, if your origin is unknown, I don't agree." ”

Gan Qi was anxious to help explain: "Second Uncle Zhang, Grandpa Xu, the three of them are not bad people, they are friends of my owner, not people of unknown origin, I can testify......"

Xu Lizheng interrupted Gan Qizheng's words and said, "You little hairy boy, don't interject when adults speak."

Without household registration papers, it is useless to say anything.

You can't testify. ”

Li Youcai said lightly: "He can't testify, the son of the Hubu Shangshu, the Hubu squire Mao Yangze, can he testify?" ”

Xu Lizheng's eyes widened: "Do you still know about the Hubu Shangshu?" Do you know how big an official that is? It's full of nonsense! If the Lord Qingtian hears about it, be careful to reward you with a board. ”

Li Youcai took out the note of Mao Yangze, the household servant, and handed it to Xu Lizheng: "Look, look, the note written by someone is here!" ”

"Who?"

"The head of the household, Mao Yangze, the son of the head of the household."

Xu Lizheng and Second Uncle Zhang, the two of them took the three-inch square strip and looked at it over and over.

Look at this word, it's really well written, the pen power and swaying that have been practiced since childhood.

Look at this paper, but the authentic Xuancheng rice paper, extremely valuable.

Look at this ink, there is gold in the black, and I don't know where the ink comes from, and there is a dark fragrance coming out.

A small strip of paper and ink is actually used.

Ordinary people can't use such a precious pen, ink, paper, and inkstone.

Xu Lizheng and Second Uncle Zhang looked at each other, but they were stopped by this three-foot square note.

If you want to say that this is not the son of Tobe Shangshu's strip, this one does seem to be quite true.

If this is true, these three men don't look like people who can catch up with Tobe Shangshu.

If you can catch it, I'm afraid you don't need to rent a house in Baozi Lane, right?

Seeing that Xu Lizheng and Second Uncle Zhang were in a dilemma, Li Youcai kindly suggested: "Why don't we go to the yamen to make up for the household registration?" I'll go with you, and the yamen can always tell the truth of this article, right? ”

After all, the household servant is in charge of household registration, and there must be a bottom of Mao Yangze's strips in the yamen.

Take out a pair of handwriting from the strip at the bottom, and naturally know the authenticity.

Although the truth of the strip has not yet been clarified, Xu Lizheng and Second Uncle Zhang have a very good attitude towards Li Youcai because of this strip.

Xu Lizheng didn't dare to shout loudly anymore, but used the word "please" quite politely.

Li Youcai said to the two people in the courtyard: "I'll go back as soon as I go, you can rest for a while." ”

Gan Qi was a little worried, "I'll go with you......"

But in one day, Li Youcai took out the note of the household servant from a beggar.

Gan Qizheng has reason to suspect that it was a fake strip made up by Li Youcai at will.

Li Youcai patted Gan Qizheng's shoulder and said, "It's very simple, I'll handle it myself, you can also go to breakfast." After breakfast, we'll go to the eldest lady later. ”

After Li Youcai left, Gan Qi was looking at the two people in the courtyard with some confusion.

Why are the other two uncles very calm and not nervous at all?

Xi Ge'er greeted him: "Don't be stunned, wash your hands and eat!" Eat well in the morning and have a good day. ”

As he spoke, he pressed Gan Qi to the table.

In the bamboo plaque on the table, there are still two steamed buns left.

Gan Qi was absentmindedly grabbing a steamed bun and adding pickles.

Lai San and Xi Ge'er had already finished eating, so they were directly in the patio, and the water from the well was rinsed at will, and they wiped their bodies with a towel on the side, and put on a short coat.

Gan Qi was nervously asking the two, "That uncle, will it be okay?" ”

Lai San said: "That uncle's surname is Li, and it is already very remarkable for others to have a seven-trick heart, your Uncle Li, that heart has eighteen or nineteen hearts, don't worry about him." ”

"What nonsense, how can anyone talk about their own brothers like this," Xi Ge'er scolded Lai San.

Gan Qi saw that the two of them did not answer the question, so he had to say the guess in his heart: "That note, what kind of note was opened by the son of Shangshu...... If you enter the official palace, you will be found to be a fake......"

Lai San and Xi Ge'er glanced at each other, and then they knew what Gan Qi was anxious about.

The two of them couldn't help but laugh.

Xi Ge'er smiled and said, "It turns out that you are worried about this. Don't worry, that strip was brought by the eldest lady, it must be true. ”

Lai San said with emotion: "The eldest lady is really amazing, she has only been in the capital for half a year, and she even knows the son of the head of the household." I got Mao Yangze's handwritten note so easily. ”

Gan Qi was thinking of the light back in the sunset, and he was in a trance.

It turned out to be her.

If the eldest lady brought it, it is naturally true.

I don't know why, as soon as Gan Qizheng heard Zhao Sichen, he inexplicably believed it.

Suddenly, Gan Qi was stuffed with another steamed bun in his hand, and Xi Ge'er said: "The steamed bun made by your mother is really delicious, there is one left, finish eating it!" ”

Lai San also snorted and put a bowl of water in front of Gan Qizheng: "This steamed bun is real." Drink some water and don't choke. ”

Gan Qizheng said with a smile: "Two uncles, you like to eat, I will let my mother make it for you every day!" ”

Hearing Gan Qizheng say this, Lai San dug it out in his pocket, took out a piece of broken silver, and threw it to Gan Qizheng.

Gan Qi reflexively raised his hand and grabbed it.

Lai Sansan said with a grin: "We are three big men, and we can't cook, if your mother is free, please make us something to eat in the morning."

We don't pick, we eat anything.

Well, this is this month's meal money. ”

Gan Qizheng hurriedly stood up and said again and again: "No, no, no, I can't take your money, I'm ......

I didn't even pay for my apprenticeship......"

Brother Xi patted him on the back and said, "What kind of money does the apprentice want to give, you learn boxing with me, no money!"

Master, if I have money, I will give you flowers! ”

Xi Ge'er pointed at Lai San and said, "Lai San has money, he gives you silver, you can take it, don't be polite to him." ”

Lai San said: "Yes, besides, I don't call you money, this is the money to buy rice, flour and sugar, it's for your mother, not for you."

You can help your mother keep it. ”

Gan Qi heard both of them say this, so he took it, stood up and bowed fiercely: "Thank you, two uncles." ”

Lai San smiled and said, "Thank you, Miss, this is all the money she gave."

Our brother really relied on begging to enter Daqing City, and he had no money on him. ”

Hearing Lai San say this, Gan Qi was a little awkward.

He bowed again and sat down to eat the steamed buns.

After the three of them finished eating, Gan Qi took the initiative to pick up the bowl, went to the well in the patio, and washed the dishes and chopsticks with well water.

Li Youcai pushed the door and walked in.

Xu Lizheng and Second Uncle Zhang followed behind Li Youcai with a smile, and said happily: "Thanks to Mr. Li, we can see the words of the household waiter, that paper is really good~"

Tsk, but after a trip, he was upgraded to "Mr. Li".

Li Youcai interrupted them: "What do you know! That paper is just Xuancheng rice paper, it's nothing. The key is that ink! Black with gold, that's authentic Huizhou oil smoke ink!

One or two Hui ink and one or two gold, have you heard?

Fragrant, fresh and delicate – that's a new tribute this year! ”

Li Youcai's insightful words frightened the two men, and they bent down again and again to say yes.

Xi Ge'er shook his head secretly: Li Youcai's nonsense words, I don't know where I heard them. casually talking nonsense, and can only bluff the uninformed Bun Alley.

Having said that, Li Zheng and Second Uncle Zhang, the two of them can't go to Mao Yangze to confront each other.

Lai San greeted him, arched his hand, said hello, took out two red envelopes, stuffed them into the hands of Xu Lizheng and Second Uncle Zhang, and said: "The three of us brothers have come to your land for the first time, and we have to rely on the two of us to mention a lot. ”

Xu Lizheng and Second Uncle Zhang also hurriedly arched their hands.

In the front, there was a strip of the son of the head of the household, and in the back, there was a red seal with strong financial resources as a guarantee.

Xu Lizheng and Second Uncle Zhang, what else are the two of them worried about.

Lai San pulled Second Uncle Zhang and said: "Brother landlord, since our third brother has made up his mind to gain a foothold in the capital, the house will be rented for two more years, you see the rent ......."

Second Uncle Zhang is a kind person, and hurriedly said: "Short-term is short-term price, because you said yesterday that you would only rent for one month, so my sister-in-law opened a rental price of eight yuan silver." If you want to rent for a long time, you will naturally pay according to the public price - I am not the kind of person who makes random offers. ”

Lai San said: Our brother is going to find a job next, I'm afraid that I don't have so much free time, but Xu Lizheng is also here today, give us a witness, and sign the contract today. ”

So, Xu Li was drafting a contract, and Gan Qi was running next door to invite Aunt Zhang and explain the matter to Aunt Zhang.

Second Uncle Zhang signed a contract for his aunt.

Lai San was generous and immediately paid the year's rent.

In addition, he gave Xu Lizheng a hard-earned money, and Xu Lizheng's beard was so happy that he was more affectionate to the three men, and he had already shouted with little brother and little brother.
