Chapter 361: The Old Rich Man

Once upon a time, there was an old rich man in Tengnan, the family worshiped the God of Wealth all the year round, the beam head was carved with an ingots pattern, the door was written with the horizontal drape of "Fortune and Treasure", and the clothes were embroidered with the pattern of making money.

Although the old money fan has thousands of family properties and is very rich, he is very harsh on long-term workers. The long-term workers worked hard for a year, but in the end they were still empty-handed, which was hatred in their hearts and scolding in their mouths.

There is an old locust tree in the yard of the old wealth fan, and there is a big old owl's nest on the tree. His wife praised this old eagle's nest like a cornucopia all day long, and his family relied on this "cornucopia" to get rich. After a long time, the long-term workers are tired of hearing crookedly. One day, Zhang San, Li Si, Zhu Wu, and Yang Liu got together, muttered for a long time, and came up with an idea to let the old money fan dismantle this "cornucopia" by himself.

On the morning of the fifth watch, the old wealth was fascinated and urged the long-term workers to work in the field, and as soon as they got out of the house, they saw a few vague figures under the old locust tree, and they were muttering something to shout. He hurriedly hid behind the rockery and pricked up his ears to hear what was going on. I only heard Zhang San say: "We don't know what kind of stealth grass is, how to find the law?" Li Si said: "On the contrary, it is braided on the old eagle's nest, and if it doesn't work, I will go up and pick it one by one." Zhu Wu said: "It's not appropriate! What should I do if the old owl screams and wakes up the owner?" Yang Liu said: "That's easy to do, let's use a long pole to drive the old eagle away, and then hide to the side, that is, the owner gets up, and when he sees no one, he is allowed to go back to sleep." As soon as he closes the door, let's act. That's it! Hurry up tomorrow in the middle of the night. After a pause, he heard Yang Liu say: "This stealth grass that Liu Laodao said is a priceless treasure. With it, no one can see it, you can do whatever you want, let's talk about it first, no matter who makes a fortune with this stealth grass, we must not forget our brothers. ”

The old money fan listened to a few of them chattering for a while, but he didn't hear what was said, so he watched them go to work in the fields. The old man was angry and happy, angry that the long-term workers wanted to steal his treasures; The good news is that he will be able to get a priceless treasure in no time. He hurriedly returned to the house and told his wife what had just happened, but his wife was only half convinced. Then we discussed it for a long time, and when it was not yet very bright, we began to act.

The old man slowly climbed up the branch and dismantled the old eagle's nest. His wife looked up under the tree, and the old man picked up a dead branch and asked, "Do you see me?" See. "My wife should respond. He picked up another one and asked, "See me?" The wife still replied that she saw it. After asking twenty-five or six times in a row, his wife leaned up so much that her neck hurt, and she couldn't stand it anymore, so she lowered her head. Who knew that he asked again, "Do you see it?" His wife was so angry that she casually said, "I didn't see it!" When the old fortune fan heard this, he was overjoyed, and as if he had found a treasure, he hurriedly took the branch in his hand into his arms, got down from the tree, returned to the house, and hid it in a large wooden cabinet.

For a while, he ruined an old money fan, and he collapsed on the bed to rest while pondering the idea of making a fortune. Thinking about it, no matter how much gold and silver treasure there is, it is better to be an official and a bachelor, to steal the big seal of the county master, and to get a seven-grade county order to do.

At noon the next day, he took out the stealth grass and stuck it in his neck, got on his horse and went straight to Tengxian County. After an hour's work, he came to the county yamen. The official guarding the door happened to be napping, and the official didn't see me. So he came to the lobby with confidence and boldness, went straight to the public desk, picked up the official seal and turned around and left. The officials on duty looked at it, where did they come from, and they stole it to the county master! rushed up and knocked the old money fan to the ground, tied him up, and regained the official seal. At this time, the county magistrate flashed out from behind the screen, asked the reason, and ordered the official to beat forty times, and put him in the south prison, waiting for his fate.

89, the folk tale is half a bright moon

The entire ancient city of Anyi will make old-fashioned straw oven baked cakes, and only Lao Chen Tou in the north of the city is alone.

Regardless of cold or summer, early in the morning every day, Lao Chen Tou lights the stove, and then rolls the dough back and forth layer by layer on the left and right layers, and the action is as skillful as flowing water. Insiders know that this process of stacking noodles is indispensable, if this time-consuming and laborious process is not done enough, the beaten baked cake will be like a piece of dead noodles in the mouth, and it is difficult to swallow. Putting the rolled dough into the oven is even more like dancing, Lao Chen's head stretched out his thin black arm with exposed green tendons, stretched and shrunk, and in the sound of "popping", the dough cake obediently adhered to the furnace wall like an obedient child. Next, Lao Chentou continued to bury his head in rolling dough repeatedly, and did not look at the baked cakes in the oven, everyone was worried that they would be overbaked, but saw Lao Chentou take out a long-handled shovel, shovel with his right hand, and hold it with his left hand, the action was fast, and in the blink of an eye, a piece of yellow and clear, fragrant baked cake was baked.

Lao Chen's straw oven baked cakes are different in that first of all, his stove is made of bricks against the wall, instead of the usual barrel oven; Secondly, the general barrel oven is smoked with charcoal fire, while the grass stove uses wheat straw as fuel, so it is called "grass stove"; Thirdly, the old fermented noodles made from the natural fermentation of the straw oven baked cakes, that is, the "old fat" and noodles, compared with the yeast bought in the supermarket, the "old fat" is more natural, more hygienic and has a better taste. These three characteristics create Lao Chentou's grass oven baked cakes, which have an excellent flavor and are unparalleled in the city, and people who come to buy them every day may not be able to buy them even if they line up.

But recently, everyone found that it was a little difficult to eat Lao Chentou's baked cakes, and for some reason, Lao Chentou began to limit purchases. First of all, one person was only allowed to buy five, saying that it was the God of Wealth of the Five Roads; It didn't take long but it became a good thing, and each person was limited to four; Who knew that then three sheep opened Thailand, and each person was only allowed to buy three; But when people rushed to buy early this morning, they were surprised to find that there were new rules: first, only people over 50 years old are allowed to buy; Second, each person is limited to two.

Everyone was surprised, and some young people were not happy, and asked, "Master Chen, why do you discriminate against young people?"

Lao Chen didn't raise his head, and said while he was busy: "How can young people taste the taste?"

These words caused the elderly to nod frequently, yes, why do elderly people love to eat grass oven baked cakes? Not only is it soft and crispy with a long aftertaste, but more importantly, it can taste the taste of youth and even childhood like an old song; can go back to the true color of the era when chemical agents had not been greatly violated; It evokes fond memories of the past. This is the taste of the years.

An old man spoke: "Master Chen, we can still understand this first point, but the second point, what is the statement that each person is limited to two?"

Lao Chentou's movements are obviously not as fast as before, and he has to press the weight of his whole body under each rollout, and then take a breath, he was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then sighed lightly, and the loneliness and sadness in the sigh are endless: "I'm old, I can't move the baked cakes, and each person is limited to two just so that everyone can taste it, but I'm afraid that I won't be able to beat even one in a few days......"

The scene fell silent all of a sudden. Day by day, year by year, Lao Chen Tou really got old, he has been bending over and busy for decades, and he has been roasted by the fire of wheat straw, so that Lao Chen's waist is like a shrimp and his face is as black as charcoal, and Lao Chen's son refuses to do it anyway after following his father for a while, and other young people are even more so. Eating hard and suffering and smoking, now it is the world of electric ovens and Western-style snacks, how can you make a lot of money with this pure handmade?

This morning, after selling the last biscuit, Lao Chen Tou was slowly tidying up his belongings while beating his waist, when a group of people came, and in the middle was an old gentleman about the same age as Lao Chen, and his body looked about the same. I saw that the old gentleman looked excited and asked in a trembling voice: "Brother, brother, are there any more baked cakes?"

The old gentleman asked while staring at the grass stove, stretched out his fingers like bamboo branches and touched them, the fingers trembled, and opened his nose to sniff and sniff greedily, and muttered: "This is the stove, this is the smell, I found it, I finally found it!"

Lao Chen was stunned, and at this time the other people who accompanied the old man were busy explaining: It turned out that the old man was from Taiwan, a native of Taiwan, and he had been a local for decades. But after a few days, the old man did not taste any of the old things, and everything was changing its old appearance in the rapid advance. Just when the old man was sad and disappointed, this morning he accidentally saw someone eating baked cakes, and he exclaimed after sniffing it from afar: "This is the grass oven baked cakes, yes, yes, that's the smell!" When relatives and friends heard this, they hurriedly led him to find him.

After hearing this, Lao Chen Tou rubbed his hands excitedly, as if he had met a bosom friend he hadn't seen for many years, but he was embarrassed again, and said: "The noodles are all used up, that noodles are old and fat, and it will take one night to get them, how can there be one and a half now?" Or, sir, come tomorrow morning. ”

When the old gentleman heard this, he said pitifully: "I will leave for Taiwan at six o'clock tomorrow morning, can you catch up, brother?"

Old Chen straightened his stiff waist and said categorically: "I must be able to!"

The old gentleman's eyes were full of longing, which made people unbearable to look at directly, and said, "But I want 100, I heard that you are limited to ...... purchases, brother."

Old Chen was stunned for a moment and asked, "Why do you want so much?"

The old gentleman smiled sadly and said: "My old bones are hanging on the island for a short time, this time I came back desperately just to see the last look, and in the last days, only these baked cakes can give me a little comfort, because it has the taste of hometown, there are memories of childhood, it will tell me that I am also a person with roots...... Also, I'm going to let my descendants, and the other children on the island, taste it too, and show them that this is the authentic smell of the old home......"

Everyone turned their faces sideways and couldn't bear to listen, Lao Chen Tou slowly stretched out his hand, two pairs of hands full of old age spots were tightly clasped together, speechless for a while, and Lao Chen Tou said for a long time: "I'll make an exception for you, 100, come and get it tomorrow morning, a word is a certainty!"

This night Lao Chen Tou was especially excited, and this night Lao Chen Tou was extremely difficult. Early the next morning, the group came eagerly, but they didn't see the firewood in the grass stove, and they didn't see Lao Chentou bending over and busy, but they saw Lao Chentou's son waiting quietly in front of the door.

There is a big straw cover beside the old Chen's son, which is the kind of round box made of straw woven into rope and then braided, which was used by people to keep warm in the past. Lao Chen's son said: "Old man, my father has repeatedly instructed that you must use grass to keep the cake warm, and my father said that in addition to the best preservation of the taste of the cake, it can also bring you the best memories, because this kind of grass cover is too old, and there is no second one in Quan'an Yicheng." Sir, there's a whole 100 pancakes in it. ”

The old gentleman was so excited when he saw that the grass cover was really embarrassed, as if his mother was covering porridge and rice for him in the cold winter...... His eyes widened suddenly: Old Chen's son had a black armband on his left arm! The man is left and the woman is right, and the left arm is covered with a black armband, which must be a male elder.

The old gentleman asked in horror, "Where is the old brother?"

Lao Chen's son couldn't hold it anymore, lowered his head and covered his face with his hands, and said: "My father got up at three o'clock to make baked cakes, and whoever persuaded him would scold him, and when he finished beating the last one, his father left......"

Old Chen's son said, "Sir, my father asked me to tell you one thing: these 100 baked cakes are made of old fat leaven, and they are all rolled out of ten pieces according to the ancient method, one by one, and finally shoveled out of the stove with a wooden shovel. My father said that using a shovel will stain the smell of iron, in a word, all made in the old way, he said that this is to make you remember the purest taste of hometown......"

The hearts of the people present were very blocked, and it took a long time for the old gentleman to speak: "Please take me to my brother." ”

According to the funeral customs of the ancient city, Lao Chen Tou had put on a shroud at this time and was lying quietly on the door panel. The old gentleman took off the straw paper covering Lao Chen's face, and Lao Chen's head looked peaceful as if he was asleep, as if he had just had a big heart. The old gentleman looked at it seriously, then bowed deeply three times, raised his head, his whole body trembled slightly, and said sadly: "Brother, I not only cry for you, but also for me, you are gone, I will never be able to eat the oven baked cakes again." ”

After the old gentleman finished speaking, he took out a still steaming pancake from the straw cover, divided it into two, and the old gentleman put half of the pancake next to Lao Chen's head and said, "Brother, divide half of your bright moon." Then he walked away without looking back.

The son of the old Chen Tou buried the half of the baked cake left by the old gentleman with his father. The next morning, the stove was lit on time, and the old Chen's son rolled up his sleeves and got to work. The long-inherited food, the memories of the older generation, and the haunting love of the hometown of strangers cannot be broken! He was young, strong, quick-witted, and innovative in his skills, and his business was so prosperous that he wondered more than once in his spare time: should I open a branch?

On this day, I was preparing for the branch, and I unexpectedly received a postcard, indicating that my father received it and sent it from Taiwan, and wrote with my heart on it: "Brother, I am about to go to another world, that round of bright moon, I rise half on this side of the strait, and you rise half on the other side of the strait, they will eventually become one, right?" Definitely. My brother is a masterpiece. ”

90, folk tale peach blossom bad luck

Brooke was an ordinary employee of a New York company, and his wife died in a car accident three years ago, leaving behind their six-year-old daughter, Isha. Life is always so unfortunate, when Isha was two years old, she was diagnosed with a blood disease that is difficult to cure, and she had to go to the hospital every year for expensive treatment to keep her alive. The doctor said that the operation can be done when the child is older, and he believes that after the operation, Isha will become a healthy child. However, the cost of the operation was very expensive, and in order to raise the money, Brooke published a letter asking for help in the newspaper, but unfortunately it did not have much success, and only received a remittance from a well-wisher. The sender did not leave his name or address.

On Monday morning, Brooke caught an early train to work. As soon as he sat down on the train, the conductor came to him to check the ticket. As soon as he touched his pocket, he forgot to buy a ticket. He pulled out his wallet and tried to make up for it, but it was empty. "Hell, I forgot to go to the ATM to withdraw cash." He looked at the conductor in embarrassment. The conductor disdainfully ordered him to get off at the next stop. "But I have a meeting this morning, and I have to be at the office at 9 o'clock ......" "I don't care about that." Brooke tried to make some more excuses, only to hear a woman behind him say to the conductor, "I'll buy a ticket for this gentleman." ”

The conductor is gone. Brooke said gratefully to the lady, "Thank you so much, I will definitely give you the money back." The lady smiled slightly: "A little thing, don't worry about it." Brooke noticed that the lady was attractive, well-dressed, and exuded the charm of a mature woman. It was time to get off the bus, and the lady and Brooke got off at the same stop. Brooke was embarrassed to ask, "If you are not in a hurry, can you come with me to withdraw money...... and the lady said, "If you have to pay back, then tomorrow, I take this train every day." As she was leaving, she threw a charming smile at him.

This smile made Brooke seem to see the touching smile of his wife when she was alive......

The next day, as soon as Brooke got on the train and sat down, a sweet voice came from his ear: "The debt collector is coming!" Brooke looked up and saw that it was the same lady from yesterday, who was standing beside him at some point, smiling at him. Brooke was overjoyed, and the two chatted a few words, and Brooke learned that the lady's name was Delis, who worked at the Fellerschic investment company and was an excellent financial investment expert. "My job every day is to 'scam customers' out of money." Delis said humorously. Brooke noticed that she was elegant and funny, and that she resembled his deceased wife, and he fell in love with her.

After a long day at work, Brooke sometimes thought back to the morning with Delis. Although he doesn't have Delise's phone number, Philechik is a large company and it won't be difficult to find her. Finally, when he was about to leave work, he couldn't help himself, and he found the switchboard number of the company in Fellerchk, and wanted to find Delis. The switchboard connected to Delis's phone for him. "Heyβ€”" Her voice came from the other end of the phone. "Delis." Brooke was a little nervous. "Oh, Brooke, is that you? I'm thinking about you. It seemed that Delis also had a crush on him, and Brooke asked to see her, and she agreed. The two made an appointment to have dinner together.

They had a very pleasant dinner. Brooke confides in her about her work troubles and the pressures of life, and Delis talks about her own life, her husband, and one of her daughters, who are not with her, but who is her favorite. Speaking of her daughter, her voice choked up. Brooke asks her why her daughter isn't by her side? She didn't seem to say anything she couldn't say. After dinner, they didn't want to end like this, so they avoided the bustling city and walked into a remote hotel. In the room, Brooke was nervous when the two were finally alone, and he hugged Delise, feeling her shiver in his arms. Poor and lovely Delis! He kissed her emotionally, and the flame of passion was already lit!

Suddenly, Brooke was hit hard in the back and fell to the ground in pain. Before she could react, she was knocked to the ground. "Don't move!" With a low shout, the two saw that a burly man had entered the room at some point, pointing a gun at them. It's over, it's a robbery! In this case, of course, it is important to save their lives, Brooke and Delis look at each other, and cooperatively hand over their respective wallets.

The man got the money, but he didn't leave, and his eyes turned to Delis. "You don't seem to be husband and wife!" In a word, Delise lowered her head. Brooke stood in front of Delith and said, "It's none of your business, you've got the money, please leave quickly!"

"Leave? How can such a beautiful woman leave without enjoying it?" The man said smugly. Brooke was furious and tried to fight the man, but the man hit him on the head with the butt of his rifle and fell to the ground in a dazed state, and the cries and begs for mercy could be heard in his ears......

When Brooke woke up, the man who had robbed him was gone. He saw Delis curled up in the corner of the bed half-naked, her eyes glazed over. She was raped! Brooke looked at Delis distressedly and tentatively asked if she wanted to call the police. "No, the police will ask why we are here, how do we answer? I couldn't let my husband know that I was raped. This is exactly what Brooke fears, her daughter cares too much about her dead mother, and sometimes she doesn't even let him, a father, get too close to other women; If she calls the police, her daughter will know about the "ugly thing" of him sleeping with another woman, what kind of impact will this have on her young mind? What would she think of him...... Brooke didn't dare to think about it anymore. He said to Delis, "I'm sorry, I didn't expect things to turn out like this......"

What Brooke didn't expect was that it didn't end there.

Early the next morning, Brooke suddenly received a phone call. "Hello, Brooke, are you healed?" The voice of a strange man. "Who are you?" Did you forget? You have your business card in your wallet and your phone address. Brooke's head swelled: "What are you calling for?" Be careful I let the police arrest you!" Is it? Brooke, your family must be curious to know what you did last night. "You ......," Brooke stammered. Don't worry, I won't bother your family, if you cooperate with me, I want $20,000......"

In an abandoned house in the slums, Brooke meets the man. The man identified himself as Old George. Old George took the money from Brooke, whistled triumphantly, and said, "Very well, you are as knowledgeable as your lover." When Brooke heard this, he was furious, grabbed old George by the collar and asked, "You are also going to blackmail Delis?" Of course, she is more afraid than you of being exposed by me about your cheating. But for now, you'd better let me go. Old George said, holding his gun at Brooke. Brooke reluctantly let go of his hands.

At the bottom of the Filerhick Corporation, Brooke calls Delis, who is concerned about her current condition. But Delis was reluctant to come out to meet him. She said she regretted it and wanted to forget about it as soon as possible. That's fine, Brooke thought, and let it all go by.

A month later, just as Brooke began to forget about it, George Sr. called again. This time, George Sr. opened his mouth and asked for $100,000. Oh my God, all the money in the family is left for my daughter!

In fact, Isha is not his own child, but a child picked up by his wife when she was alive and took the subway. Isha was very well-behaved, and for the sake of this child, the couple never had children again, and even if the child had that kind of disease, they never regretted it. But Brooke never imagined that he would be blackmailed for a while. He was ruthless and decided to call the police!

Brooke went to Fereschik's company and found Delis, told him about old George's call again, and then he told him about his daughter in great pain. He took a picture of his daughter with him and showed it to her. When she saw the photo, she suddenly shook and exclaimed, "Oh my God, you...... You can't call the police......" and turned around and ran. Brooke didn't understand why she was like that.

Brooke went to the bar. He sat there groggily, in great pain. "Hey, Brooke, why are you here?" A man walked up to greet him.

Brooke looked up and saw that it was Pete, the company's former handyman. Pete is a thug who has been in jail for fighting. Later, he was fired from the company for undisciplined work, but he was taken care of by Brooke when he used to work in the company, and the two had a good relationship. Hearing Pete's concerned questioning, Brooke told Pete exactly what had happened. "Well, for the sake of our good relationship at the beginning, you give me $5,000 and I'll help you solve this matter." Pete said.

"How are you going to solve it?" Brooke felt like he had grasped a life-saving straw. "It's very simple, you make an appointment with him, and I'll go with you. The only way to deal with this kind of person is to fight violence with violence, beat him, threaten him, and make him dare not blackmail you in the future. ”

The next night, Brooke takes Pete to the location George Sr. said - the scrapyard. But old George didn't show up. Pete looked at Brooke's nervous appearance and said, "You don't have to worry, this kind of person just wants money, just scare and scare him." As soon as he finished speaking, a gunshot rang out, and Pete was suddenly shot and fell to the ground.

Brooke was stunned, and old George spun out from behind a scrap cart with his gun, and said angrily, "You even brought someone here!" Do you think a little thug can scare me? I'm a ruthless character!"

Brooke sat on the ground and looked at Pete, who had been shot in the head and was dead. Old George said, "Tomorrow if I don't get the money, I'll give you a shot too." George Sr. was gone, and Brooke left the scrapyard in a panic.

At night, Brooke sat on the edge of his daughter's bed, watching her sleep and tears welled up in her eyes. "Dear Isha," said Brooke sadly, "Daddy is a bastard, and Daddy wouldn't have survived without you...... The next day, he reluctantly took out the money he had accumulated for many years and gave it to old George.

Unexpectedly, two days later, the police came to the door, and it was Inspector John from the police station. Inspector John had come to investigate Pete's case because he had been seen with Brooke the day before Pitt's death. Brooke pretended to be calm and said that they had just bumped into each other by chance and chatted. Inspector John believed him, but still asked, "So where were you at the time of the crime?" "I work overtime at the company," Brooke said. "Does anyone prove it?" This one...... No. Brooke replied. You'd better be able to state where you were on the night of the crime, or you might be in trouble. Today I just came to find out about the situation, and I will come to you again if I have clues in the future. Inspector John got up and took his leave.

After Inspector John left, Brooke lay on the table with his head in pain. In case the police find evidence that he went out with Pete, he can't tell anyway. Besides, who can guarantee that old George's bastard will never come to blackmail him again? After thinking about it, Brooks decided to explain the whole thing to the police. He went to the police station before going to Delis, because she had to testify before the police believed that he was telling the truth.

At Philechik, the front desk lady told Brooke that Delis had gone to a meeting and that he could sit down and wait for a while. Brooke waited anxiously, and after a while, the front desk lady called him, "Sir, Ms. Delis is here." Brooke hurriedly got up and walked over, but what he saw was a chubby middle-aged lady. He asked curiously, "Didn't Delis come back?" The middle-aged lady said, "I'm Delis, what are you looking for me?" No, I'm looking for another Delith. Brooke described Delis's appearance. Oh, you're talking about Miss Gianna. The middle-aged lady said, "She is a temporary worker here for us, and she usually helps me answer the phone, make a file or something." "What?" Brooke was startled, "Where is she now?" Oh, she quit yesterday and I don't think she had any intention of doing her job well. ”

Brooke didn't know how he had left Fereschic, Delith - no, Gianna was missing, no one could prove what had happened, and now how could he get out of the nightmare? Thinking back on the whole thing, a terrible hypothesis came to Brooke's mind, and if it was true, thenβ€”he didn't dare to think about it any more.

Brooke took a leave of absence and searched the station in disguise. Inside and outside the station were busy office workers, and no one noticed him. A few days later, he finally saw her in a carriage - Gianna. She was radiant again, chatting happily with a man beside her. After the car arrived at the station, the man got off the bus with her and reluctantly parted. After Gianna and the man parted, they walked a block and turned into an alley. Brooke quietly followed behind her, only to see her standing in the alley, as if waiting for someone. At this time, a man appeared behind Gianna, and Brooke was about to tell Gianna to be careful, but the two hugged each other - Brooke's breathing was about to stop, and the man who hugged Gianna turned out to be - Old George!

I only heard old George say, "Baby, how is it, has the fish been hooked?" Of course, he asked me to have dinner at the Lada Hotel in the afternoon after work......"

Everything is understood, the whole incident is a hoax. Recalling his panic all these days, Brooke clenched his fists, he must find a way to get back the extorted money, which is his daughter's life-saving money! It's impossible to call the police, they're in a group, and the police won't believe Brooke's side of the story. What to do?

In the evening, Brooke, who was hiding in the corner of the Lada Hotel, saw Gianna and the man in the morning.

Gianna and the man left the hotel and went to the bar. Brooke followed them all the time. In the middle of the night, they also went to the remote hotel, which had very poor security. After a while, old George also walked in. When it was time, Brooke hid a bat in his clothes and quietly followed.

He saw that the elevator indicator stopped on the 5th floor, so he also went up to the 5th floor. Sure enough, at the door of a room at the end of the corridor on the fifth floor, old George was crouching there intently poking the door lock.

The door opened silently, and George Sr. was about to get up and go in, when Brooke swung his bat behind him and knocked him unconscious. Brooke dragged old George into the room, startling Gianna and the man who were lingering on the bed. "Hello, Delis! Have you given yourself a new name?" Brooke teased. Gianna was stunned when she saw this scene. "Oh my God, this is horrible." The gentleman quickly understood what was going on, and in a panic picked up his clothes and wanted to leave. Brooke stopped him: "You can't go, we're going to call the police, you come to testify for me and send them to jail." ”

"No, I can't call the police, I don't want my wife to know about it." The man said he was leaving. "None of you are allowed to go!" Old George on the ground woke up at some point, and he pulled out his gun and pointed it at them.

When the man saw that old George was awake, he panicked even more and tried to escape, but was shot and killed by old George. Old George pointed his gun at Brooke again. "Don't ......," Gianna pounced on and got in front of Brooke. There was a bang, the gun went off, and Gianna fell headlong to the ground. Old George froze: "Gianna ......" Taking advantage of Old George's distraction, Brooke snatched Old George's gun and fired a shot at Old George. Old George fell to the ground and died.

"Brooke ......" is Gianna's faint voice. Brooke walked over, Gianna's wound was gurgling with blood, and her breath was getting weaker and weaker. "I'm sorry...... Your money is in the trunk of the blue car downstairs, take it to your daughter's treatment......" Brooke glanced at the woman he had almost fallen in love with, turned and walked out of the room.

Downstairs, Brooke finds his money, where there is also a letter. He opened the letter and saw that there was a bank card inside. I saw that the letter read:

Brooke:

I'm sorry, but I'm not the kind of bad woman, I was blackmailed by old George to raise money for my daughter's treatment. Do you know who my daughter is? He's your daughter Isha now!

As early as when I was young, I was deceived by others because of ignorance and gave birth to a girl. I was afraid of being ridiculed by others, so I threw her in the subway, and on her body, I put a unique Chinese jade pendant. In fact, I have been single all these years, and in my heart, I have been thinking about the daughter I threw away, and I don't know where she is. Once, I stumbled upon a letter for help and a picture of Isha that you wrote, and I saw that jade pendant around her neck, and I recognized her at a glance, she was my daughter. For this reason, I have sent you an anonymous transfer of a sum of money that I have accumulated over the years. I knew that the money was not enough, so I had to cooperate with old George to find someone to cheat money, but I never dreamed that the first person I was looking for would be you, a benefactor who adopted my daughter...... Brooke, actually, when I first met you, I found myself already in love with you, really...... At this time, I really want to meet my daughter......

Before the letter could be read, Brooke burst into tears. He ran back to the hotel, and by this time, Gianna was exhausted. "Actually, you're a good mom......" Brooke leaned down and kissed her deeply on the cheek.

As if sensing it, Gianna suddenly rolled down a string of tears from the corner of her eye......

91, the folk tale Sun Erniang's daughter "Sai Wuyan" sleeve arrow shot the cow

Sun Erniang's daughter is called Zhang Jian, she has been a skill since elementary school, and when she was eighteen years old, outsiders looked at her like a saltless lady of Qi State, so they gave her the nickname "Sai Wuyan".

When the Liangshan Rebels were recruited, Zhang Jian was only twelve years old. When she was a child, it was Sun Erniang who taught her to read and practice martial arts. He is proficient in all eighteen kinds of martial arts, accustomed to a big knife, and can also use a good sleeve arrow in one hand, and wear Yang within a hundred steps. She practiced martial arts with the heroines who stayed on the mountain to defend Liangshan Dazhai.

However, it is said that there is a Zhu Niu in Zhujiazhuang, sixty miles north of Liangshan, who is a descendant of the five tigers of the Zhu family, and has a feud with the heroes of Liangshan. Later, he surrendered to the Jin soldiers, just thinking about revenge.

Once, General Jin asked Zhu Niu to lead the soldiers to the water to catch the boat, and Zhang Jian knew about it, so he led the little heroes to Jinshan Village. Zhang Jian said to the fishermen: "You should quickly support three big boats to Shijie Village, and this should be the case." "Three big boats headed for Shijie Village. Zhang Jian and the little heroines dressed as fishergirls, each drove a small boat, and laid the net three miles south of Shijie Village. Jin Bing saw that it was a few fisherwomen, so he didn't pay attention to it, and still looked for a boat in Shijie Village. At this moment, I saw three big boats heading towards Shijie Village. As soon as the boat landed, Zhu Niu took fifty golden soldiers on board and told them to chase the fisherwoman's boat. The people on the three big boats shouted and shouted, "We are here to sell fish." Zhu Niu said: "Whoever wants not to go, kill the head." "The ship is heading south.

Zhang Jian saw that Zhu Niu led the Jin soldiers into a trap, pretended to be afraid, and ran into the lake with a boat. When the big boat saw that it was about to get on the small boat, he wished the ox to roar away at the bow of the boat: "If I run again, I will shoot arrows." "It's too late, it's fast, Sai Wuyan Zhang Jian threw out a sleeve of arrows, not biased or crooked, right in the throat of the cow, and planted it into the lake with a thud. Zhang Jian's eyes were fast, and with a whoosh, two arrows, and the two Jin generals fell into the lake. The fishermen on the three big boats slashed the boats and beat the golden soldiers into the water like dumplings. The golden soldiers were killed by the killed, and drowned by the drowned. A few who didn't die were caught on the boat, and Zhang Jian shouted: "A few of you don't die, go back and send a letter to your lord, just say that I am eight hundred miles in the water and cannot be violated." ”

At this moment, the sound of fishing songs came from afar:

I wish the cow to invade,

There are millions of soldiers in the lake;

I wish the ox and the arrow to die,

Jin Bing saw it with his own eyes;

Heroes of the water,

Heroes of the Righteous Army;

Dare to commit another offense,

It's over in a moment!

Since then, as long as Jin Bing hears the words "Sai Wuyan", he will flee without a fight.

92, folk tales rush to the show

Rushing is a local dialect, when you go to the countryside, listen to the farmers, refers to the estrus of the male chasing the female, you such as the bull chasing the cow, called the donkey chasing the donkey, etc., of course, as long as the chase on, there will be mating, you are like the bull if the estrus does not use fire attack can not prevent its sexual assault, especially the one called the donkey, whenever this time always rushes forward with a gun, and then climbs on the back of the donkey, directly stuffs the donkey's big goods into it, the farmer thinks that mating is "Sao", so it is called a rush.

Because people also belong to the category of animals, there will also be chases similar to animals, and people also borrow the term "chassing" for such people.

In the morning, I rushed to class, waved and stopped a minibus on the national highway, the car was full of people rushing to work, the driver and the conductor were two young men, the car was driving fast, I was more worried, the road was slippery in the rain, sometimes I couldn't reach the speed, I said to the young driver: "Young man, slow down, the road is slippery!"

The driver turned his head to look at me, and saw that I was older, and he spoke politely: "Old man, it's okay, I drive like this every day, you can rest assured!"

I sat in the same row as the driver, on the right side of the cab, and after listening to the driver's words, I felt that it was still not very reliable, so I grabbed the handrail in front of me.

The minibus continued to move forward and caught up with another minibus, but it happened that the driver and conductor of the minibus were girls, and the driver of the minibus I was riding drove to the female driver side by side and said to the female driver through the window: "Sister, marry me!"

The female driver stepped on the accelerator and scolded: "Zhu Bajie's grandfather died far away!" As soon as the butt of the minibus smoked, the minibus I was riding in was far behind.

I saw that the male driver also stepped on the accelerator to speed up and catch up, and I said, "Young man, early in the morning is not the time to flirt, everyone is in a hurry to go to work, you better take it easy!"

The driver started a commotion and ignored me, but the conductor who didn't know whether he was alive or dead interjected: "Brother Ma, chase!"

Soon our bus overtook the girl's car, and the girl was not to be outdone and immediately accelerated, and overtook our bus, and I secretly complained in my heart, eager to learn Buddhism and recite "Nan Wu Amitabha".

When the bus we took caught up with the bus in front of us again, I only heard a "bang" sound, there was a rear-end accident, the driver braked urgently, and the seat on the car pulled up the two bolts behind under the action of huge inertia, and all the people in the car except the driver and I fell and ate, including the conductor who didn't know whether to live or die, there were face scrapes, hand scratches, and maybe legs were crushed by the seat. turned around and saw that the passengers in the car were miserable, and at this time, all the passengers in the car scolded: Beast, you should make a fuss! Hurt the old men and lose money! Lose money!"

The driver and the conductor were dumbfounded, and I said to the stunned driver, "Open the door, I have to change trains and go to class." β€œ

There are also people who are not too seriously injured and think they are unlucky to follow me out of the car while covering the bleeding place, but most of the injured passengers are waiting for the traffic police to deal with them, and at this time, the female driver of the bus in front of her also stuck her head out of the window and scolded: "You damn it, you complained early in the morning, is it okay?"

I saw that there was not enough time, so I quickly recruited a driver and left.
