Chapter 169: Encountering a Little Beggar
"Song Gongzi, do you really want to go to the prostitution house to buy the spring breeze?" Lin Yue lingered along the way,
"Aren't you afraid that your wife will know about it and give you a divorce? You're a door-to-door son-in-law. Song Che smiled: "My wife is far away in Suzhou, how could she know?" Lin Yue said: "But the prostitution hall has always been dirty, as long as there is silver, beggars can stay, have you ever thought about what if you get infected with willow disease and infect her?" β
"Alas! So what to do? Song Che sighed: "Since I left Suzhou for more than a month, I often can't sleep alone, and my heart is empty and lonely!" β
"The you I saw ate and slept well all day."
"You're not a man, of course you don't understand, you can take care of the big ones, but you can't take care of the small ones."
"That'...... Then you look for Nangong Yue, you gave her freedom, and she should serve you in the second spring. Lin Yue's eyes still revealed a little seriousness.
Song Che held his chin and looked directly at the jade-faced little family in front of him. Xu is eyes were too naked, she had to avoid it for a while, and muttered: "I only accompany you through the wind and snow, but not with you." β
"Hehehe......" Song Che shook his head and laughed.
"What are you laughing at, I'm serious, there is no good thing in the world for prostitution, no matter how much you have to make a name to take off your clothes!" She stared, serious.
Song Che laughed louder, and the horses were also fast. This problem comes naturally, there is no need to force it, there is no need to force it.
Changle Street in the east of the city, Yong'an Street in the south of the city, and Heyang Street in the west of the city have a total of 1780 shops, restaurants, gambling houses, and brothels, which are run by the Jia family, and the rest of the shops are used for rental.
Since it was a search for criminal evidence, it couldn't be too blatant, and Song Che, as a guest, walked all the places where the Jia family ate, drank, prostituted and gambled.
It's not an accident to say it's unexpected. Since it is a store that dares to put up a plaque, it is a serious business that is not afraid of investigation, even if Song Che wants to pick a bone in the egg, he can't find a suitable reason.
The companies used to launder money are all polished. The bosses of the underworld are all in suits and leather shoes. Sin that can be put on the face is not sin.
The sins of the Jia family must be deeply hidden, and it still needs opportunities to uncover them.
"When you get to the restaurant, you order a table of dishes, and you don't want to eat two bites; When you go to the gambling house, you only bet twice, and you stop gambling when you are in good luck; When you go to the brothel, the girl doesn't touch her buttocks, and then you go to the next house...... Song Gongzi, what are you doing tonight? "When I came out of the Changle Street Gambling House, the night was already deep to the second watch, the pedestrians were in twos and threes, and the street was deserted.
Late autumn is cool and quite chilly. Song Che smiled: "At least I'm not here to buy the spring breeze, right?" Lin Yue rubbed his shriveled stomach and complained: "Then you can let me eat two mouthfuls of food, and if you don't drink two cups of flower wine, I ran from the east of the city to the west of the city in one night, and my stomach was already hungry." β
"When I came to the gambling house just now, I remember that there was a roadside noodle stall outside the street, and it shouldn't have closed yet," Song Che greeted with a smile: "Let's go, Childe will be the east tonight, and I will give you something to eat!" β
"You don't eat the delicacies of the mountains and seas in the restaurant, you have to go to the roadside stall to eat noodles, what kind of weirdo is it......" Lin Yue pouted and followed.
At the entrance of Changle Outer Street, under a lantern, three or two tables, and a small cart are steaming, and the stall owner is a middle-aged man, who sits behind the car, waiting for customers to come to the door bored.
In front of the noodle stall squatted a little beggar in rags and with a disheveled head, he covered his stomach with his hands, his eyes hooked the stall owner, and swallowed and swallowed his saliva.
"Boss, two bowls of Yangchun noodles, don't be spicy, put more vinegar; Cut half a pound of beef and have two side dishes. Song Che and Lin Yue walked into the noodle stall and took their seats.
"Okay, guest officer, wait a minute!" When the stall owner saw the business coming to the door, he hurriedly lit a fire below. He cut half a catty of braised beef, packed two plates of side dishes, and brought them to the table: "The two guest officers eat first, and the Yangchun noodles will be ready immediately." Song Che took two pairs of chopsticks, handed Lin Yue a pair, and stomped to start eating.
Lin Yue suddenly reminded: "Hey, look at him." The little beggar crouching in front of the noodle stall was tilting his head and longing for the beef on their table.
He was so dark, curled up in a ball, still squatting in a place where he couldn't see in the backlight, if it weren't for his big watery eyes, Song Che really couldn't see him.
Song Che couldn't help frowning, why are there beggars in such a prosperous city? When you met Aunt Song today, you can be considered lucky.
Just as Song Che wanted to greet the little beggar, the stall owner poked his head out first to drive away: "Little beggar, why are you still squatting, hurry up and get out of me, don't dirty the eyes of the guest officer!" The little beggar took two steps back with his knees folded.
"Hey! Didn't you hear me telling you to? There's nothing you can eat here! The stall owner scooped up a scoop of hot water and sprinkled it beside the little beggar.
"If you don't get out, the next scoop will be poured on you!" The hot water splashed on the little beggar, so hot that she sat on the ground and crawled out while shouting: "Uncle...... I'm leaving, my leg is numb...... I'll leave right away......"
"Smack!" Lin Yue slammed the table and stood up, shaking the small vegetables to fly, and she shouted at the stall owner: "What's the matter with you!" What's wrong with appreciating a bite of noodles! The stall owner was so frightened by the momentum that he didn't dare to move, and his face was bitter: "Guest officer, I have a small business......
"Then you don't need to splash people with hot water! He's only a half-grown kid! β
"It's not...... Don't you know, this little beggar has been squatting in front of my stall all night, and I was kind enough to persuade him to leave, but he just refused to go. You said that he is such a dirty pestle here, how can the guests eat noodles after seeing it! β
"Why are you talking so uglyβ"
"Alright, alright." Song Che grabbed Lin Yue, if this chivalrous temper came up, he would have to lift the human face.
He took a piece of silver, threw it to the stall owner, and asked deliberately, "There is no one in this world who is born dirty, but this silver that has been touched thousands of times is so dirty that it is not like wordsβI now use this dirty silver to buy noodles for this young man to eat, do you still think he is dirty?" The stall owner got the silver, wiped it on the placket, bared his teeth and smiled: "It's not dirty, it's not dirty......" Lin Yue walked to pick up the little beggar, pulled him to the table and sat down, the oily and dirty looked down on him, but he was almost thirteen or fourteen years old.
"A child of his age must have been sold by his parents to be a servant, and he didn't meet a good master, so he ran away by himself."
"I don't think so." No matter how poor a servant is, he should have enough to eat, so why should he live in the neighborhood and become a beggar?
Song Che handed the chopsticks to the little beggar, pushed the side dishes in front of him, and said with a smile: "The world is big, and the stomach is the biggest, right?" The little beggar grabbed the chopsticks, and put the plate in his mouth!
