The old lady of the Shi family clasped her hands together and worshipped the gods: "I have been praying to God and Buddha for the past few days, just looking at this." I heard from my neighbors that you are a great good person with great powers, a great good person, so I asked Deyi to ask you for a way, which was really unavoidable. ”

Zhang Shaofei: "Where is your eldest son now?" ”

Mrs. Shi looked angry: "This Deren, since he swallowed the two jars of silver in Deyi, he handed over his two precious sons to me, and went out with his evil wife, saying that he was going to the south to play." ”

Zhang Shaofei: "Where did he hide the silver?" ”

The old lady of the Shi family said helplessly: "I don't know." I searched for a long time with Deyi, but I couldn't find it. ”

At this time, two well-dressed boys, seven and five, ran in. They tugged at the placket of the old lady of the Shi family and shouted, "Grandma, if there is anything delicious, hurry up and bring it to us to eat." ”

The old lady of the Shi family said angrily: "You two gluttonous ghosts have eaten glutinous rice syrup for less than half an hour, and they are shouting to eat again so soon." Without! ”

As soon as they heard that there was nothing to eat, the two children began to cry "woo, woo".

Zhang Shaofei pointed to the two children who were crying and asked the old lady of the Shi family, "They are your grandsons?" ”

The old lady of the Shi family nodded: "Well, they are Deren's sons." ”

Shi Deyi: "It's also fun to find my brother and wife, leaving two mischievous sons, so tired that my mother doesn't know how hard it is." ”

Looking at these two children, a ray of light flashed through Zhang Shaofei's mind, Zhang Shaofei suddenly had an idea, and asked the old lady of the Shi family: "When will that Shi Deren come back?" ”

The old lady of the Shi family: "When they left, they said that they would go out for more than ten days, and I think they should come back in these two days." ”

Zhang Shaofei comforted: "Don't worry, I will find a way to make Shi Deren spit out the silver in his stomach." If you know that Shi Deren is coming back, you will inform me in advance. ”

Shi Deyi: "Okay. ”

Two days later, the sun was setting, and a touch of rouge afterglow was heavily smeared on the cloudy mountain.

Shi Deyi found Liang Fuxing and told Shi Deren to bring a message that he would return home after this evening.

Liang Fuxing hurriedly took Shi Deyi to the grass shed south of Shimen to inform Zhang Shaofei.

Zhang Shaofei was playing with the two regular customers of his house, the monkey Ah Zuo and Ah You, and after learning about it, he took the two monkeys and followed Shi Deyi down the mountain.

After coming to Shi's house, Zhang Shaofei asked Mrs. Shi: "What about Shi Deren's two sons?" ”

The old lady of the Shi family raised her hand to the west: "They are playing with her granddaughter at the house of the second uncle at the end of the village."

Zhang Shaofei pointed to the two monkeys that were tickling beside him, and said to the old lady of the Shi family: "You put on the clothes that your two grandsons usually wear." ”

The old lady of the Shi family didn't understand: "Ah Fei, what do you mean?" ”

Zhang Shaofei replied with a smile: "Let these two monkeys replace your two grandsons." ”

The old lady of the Shi family was confused when she heard this: "How can these monkeys get involved with my grandson?" ”

Shi Deyi said with confidence: "Mother, you don't have to worry so much, since Ah Fei asked you to do this, you will not be wrong to do it." ”

The old lady of the Shi family thought for a while: "Okay." After she finished speaking, she walked into her grandson's room, picked out two sets of clothes, and handed them to Zhang Shaofei.

Zhang Shaofei dressed the two monkeys.

The two monkeys were so obedient that they let Zhang Shaofei fiddle with them. Zhang Shaofei quickly put on the clothes for them.

When the old lady of the Shi family and Shi Deyi saw that the two monkeys were wearing their grandson's clothes, they covered their mouths and laughed while being puzzled.

Zhang Shaofei told him the next move he was going to take: "You go and ask the second uncle to take care of the two grandsons, and don't let them return to this house for the time being." ”

After hearing this, the old lady of the Shi family said to Zhang Shaofei, stretched out her thumb, and praised: "This idea of yours is really amazing, I think this time Ah Ren can't play tricks anymore." ”

"I hope so." After Zhang Shaofei arranged everything, he took the two monkeys and the old lady of the Shi family to the next door for temporary shelter.

Shi Deyi stayed at home and waited for Shi Deren and his wife to return.

In less than a bag of cigarettes, Shi Deren and his wife came back happily from out of town, and they knew that their two sons were particularly hungry on weekdays, so they specially brought a lot of delicious food back.

Shi Deren's wife was short and fat, her face was like a round grinding plate, and because she had not worked for a long time, she was free from the sun and rain, and she shrunk at home all day to enjoy the blessings, and her skin was as white as if she had been coated with a layer of lime. The bun on his head was so shiny that even the yellow silk ants couldn't climb up. When she entered the house, she was wearing the black Xiangyun veil, which was the new clothes she bought for this outing. One look at her knew it was a wealthy family.

As soon as Shi Deren's wife entered the door, she shouted: "Ah Fu-Ah Gui-"

She screamed many times, but there was no answer from a child.

He and his wife came in and looked left and right to see that something was missing.

It was not uncommon for Shi Deren to feel this way, because when he used to come home from a trip, his two greedy sons would come up to him, pull him by the leg of his trousers, and shout and ask him what good food he had brought back. But today it was quiet, and there was no movement. Seeing Shi Deyi at home, he wiped the sweat on his forehead and asked, "Brother Deyi, where are my two sons?" ”

Shi Deyi's hand pointed outward: "A-Niang took them outside to play." ”

Shi Deren asked, "How are they doing?" ”

"Okay, okay." Shi Deyi nodded, "My two nephews are very good, and they have changed a lot. ”

Shi Deren: "Have you become fat, or have you become tall?" ”

Shi Deren's wife also anxiously: "You tell us quickly." ”

"You'll know when you see it later, now I'll go and call Ah Fu and Ah Gui back." After Shi Deyi finished speaking, he walked out of the gate and shouted loudly, "Ah Niang, Ah Ge has come back from other places, you can bring Ah Fu and Ah Gui home." ”

"Got it." An old man's voice answered in the distance.

Not long after, the old lady of the Shi family appeared at the gate.

She was followed by Zhang Shaofei, who came into the house with two monkeys with brown and yellow fur.

Shi Deren was a little stunned when he saw Zhang Shaofei coming to his house at first glance, and he had suffered his losses before. But seeing that he was carrying two monkeys, he seemed to understand, and said, "Ah, I thought you were doing something, it turned out that you were walking the rivers and lakes to play monkey shows." ”

Shi Deren's wife said to the old lady of the Shi family: "Ah, you know that we came back today and specially invited this person who walked the rivers and lakes to play monkey tricks for us and our son. ”

Mrs. Shi said in her heart: "Fun? yes, you'll be happy later. ”

Zhang Shaofei put the leaves in his mouth, blew gently, and a melodious whistle sounded.

The two monkeys heard Zhang Shaofei's leaf whistle, and screamed a few times, trembling with their hands, and playfully turning a few somersaults in the hall, which made Shi Deren and his wife lean forward and backward with laughter, and they were overjoyed.

After saying that, Shi Deren asked, "Ah Niang, just now Deyi said that you took Ah Fu and Ah Gui to play outside, why are you still missing them?" It really worries me. ”

Shi Deren's wife raised the big bag of food she was carrying: "This time we went out and bought a lot of delicious things for Ah Fu and Ah Guili. ”

"Deren, sister-in-law, you two just entered the house and opened your mouth to remember your two precious sons, what a good father and mother. Don't you see, I have brought them. ”

"Brought?" Shi Deren and his wife looked around, looked and looked, and in the end they looked at me, I looked at you, and they couldn't find their son at all.

Shi Deren walked into a few rooms in the house and looked around, then returned to the hall and blamed: "Ah Niang, have you become an old ignorant, obviously you didn't bring Ah Fu and Ah Gui in, but you actually said that you brought them here?" ”

Shi Deren's wife questioned in her voice: "Yes, you are so old and confused!" ”

"Confused? I'm not a little confused. The old lady of the Shi family pointed to the two monkeys that were tickling with her hands and said, "Look, aren't these your two sons, that is, my two good grandsons, Ah Fu and Ah Gui?" ”

Shi Deren couldn't imagine that his mother would say such a thing, and his eyes widened as round as a dragon's eye in shock: "What? They're my two sons?! ”

Zhang Shaofei gave the two monkeys a forward look, and the two monkeys walked very obediently in front of Shi Deren and his wife to salute, and after shouting "whoa, whoa", he stepped forward and pulled their trousers violently, almost tearing off the trousers of Shi Deren and his wife.

Shi Deren and his wife were startled, their feet were trembling constantly, they wanted to tear away the monkey pulling their pants with their hands, but they retracted their hands again, afraid that the monkey's claws would scratch themselves, and begged Zhang Shaofei with a sad face: "This big brother, please tell this monkey to let go." ”

Zhang Shaofei saw the embarrassed appearance of Shi Deren and his wife, couldn't help laughing, and blew a short whistle, and the two monkeys heard the command, immediately let go of their hands, and shouted loudly at the feet of Shi Deren and his wife.

Zhang Shaofei saw the two monkeys yelling, and deliberately asked Shi Deren and his wife: "Hey, what are they telling you?" ”

Shi Deren threw his hand down angrily: "They are monkeys, I am human." How can I understand their chirping? ”

Shi Deren's wife echoed: "Yes, it's worse than chickens and ducks." ”

The old lady of the Shi family saw this opportunity and interjected: "You don't understand, I can understand." My two good grandsons said that they were hungry when they went out to play just now, and now they see their parents coming home and ask you to bring good things for them to eat. ”

At this moment, Shi Deren's face turned blue with anger, and he gasped, but he couldn't find the words to fight back.

Shi Deyi stood on the side, seeing that Shi Deren and his wife's expressions had changed greatly, he knew that this move had hit their vital point, and said, "Yes." Didn't I tell you just now that both of your sons have changed? Look, it's become this monkey now. ”

Shi Deren's wife stared at the toad eyes: "What? My two sons are now monkeys? ”

"Yes, Ah Ren, this is your eldest son Ah Fu." The old lady of the Shi family pointed to the slightly larger monkey, and then pointed to the small monkey, and made an introduction, "He is your youngest son Agui." ”

Zhang Shaofei deliberately praised Shi Deren: "Yo, your two sons have become very cute. ”

Shi Deren faced the two jumping monkeys, crying and laughing, and his triangular eyes widened: "Auntie, are you joking with me?" ”

"Ah Ren, your aunt has always spoken as if she was carrying a bamboo pole into an alley - straight to the point. You know my temperament, how could I joke with you? The old lady of the Shi family looked serious when she spoke.

Shi Deren: "I've only been out for less than half a month, how can my son become a monkey?" ”

Shi Deren's wife: "You can't talk about anything. ”

The old lady of the Shi family: "People say that the eighteenth change of women's college. I couldn't have imagined how two good grandsons could become like this in such a short period of time? ”

Shi Deren waved his hand and said in a stubborn tone: "My son is a human, and these two are monkeys. ”

Shi Deren's wife also spoke: "Children will only get bigger, and adults will only get old and ugly, how can they become monkeys?" ”

When they were fighting, the old lady of the Shi family pretended to be ignorant: "Yes, I am also very puzzled in my heart these days, my two grandsons have always been good, how to raise, raise, there are so many yellow hairs on the body, the buttocks have become red, the cheeks are sharp and thin, the nose has become flat and collapsed, and the nostrils are as big as chimneys, alas......"

Shi Deyi hit the snake with the stick: "Yes, I looked at it at the time, looked at it, and I also felt very strange. How did my two nephews grow so many yellow hairs, and they grew longer and longer, and longer and more yellow. The mouth is protruding forward. Yo, grow, grow, grow, it's like this. ”

Zhang Shaofei pretended: "Ah, people can change like this, it's really strange." ”

Shi Deren waved his hand in disbelief: "My two sons are human, and these two are monkeys. No matter how my two sons change, they will not become so outrageous. ”

Shi Deren's wife: "You are colluding to deceive our two in-laws, right?" ”

The old lady of the Shi family: "I am your mother, how can I even lie to my son?" ”

Shi Deyi: "Brother, your words are just blaming yourself in the mouth." Didn't you say earlier that everything in the world is changing? ”

Zhang Shaofei: "Yes, things in the world are changing all the time. ”

The old lady of the Shi family saw Zhang Shaofei nodding to her, and knew that the time was ripe, so she said bluntly: "Yes, what Deyi stored in you was obviously two jars of silver with white flowers left by his father when he was dying, and after a while, when you returned it to him, it became two jars of stones." ”

Hearing the words of the old lady of the Shi family, Shi Deren was not a stupid person, and knew that she was referring to the two jars of silver that she had swallowed her brother, and closed her mouth and thought.

Zhang Shaofei raised his voice: "Since silver can be turned into stone for no reason, then it is reasonable for your two sons to become two monkeys!" ”

Shi Deren had suffered from Zhang Shaofei in the bet, and he was not angry, his triangular eyes were round, and he looked at Zhang Shaofei and asked: "This is my family matter, and I don't need you, an outsider, to interfere!" ”

The old lady of the Shi family didn't wait for Zhang Shaofei to answer, and grabbed the words: "He didn't come to intervene, but I invited him with Deyi." ”

Zhang Shaofei replied tepidly: "Earlier, when you made a bet with Liang Fuxing in Taipingwei, didn't you praise me in public for understanding things and upholding justice. Do you like people like me the most? ”

Indeed, these words were spoken by Shi Deren himself at that time, and now they are being used by Zhang Shaofei to deal with him. Therefore, being a general like Zhang Shaofei, he could only be anxious, his sharp face was red, but he couldn't refute Zhang Shaofei with words, just hesitated: "I...... I ......"

Shi Deyi pointed at Zhang Shaofei and said to Shi Deren: "Brother, what he said is indeed reasonable. ”

Zhang Shaofei: "Road shovel, big help." This is how things and reason in the world are. ”

Shi Deren knew that he would lift a stone and hit his own feet, crying and mourning, and pleaded with the old lady of the Shi family: "A-Niang, I am your biological son, for the sake of family affection, don't play any tricks with me anymore." I beseech thee, give me back my two sons. ”

Shi Deren's wife beat her chest while crying: "Ah Fu and Ah Gui are my hearts, if they have any winter melon and tofu, I don't want to live." I beg you, Lord Rich, to be merciful, and give us back your son. ”

The old lady of the Shi family spit out all the bitter water that had been accumulating in her stomach: "Ah Ren, sister-in-law, what kind of family affection will you talk about now?" If you really regarded me as a mother, you two would not have used such despicable means to cheat the righteous money. You're looking for the ill-gotten gains. But Deyi is different from you, he is an honest man. And thy father was justified before he died, and divided some of the possessions and the money into two parts, and your brothers each took a portion. You already have a family of sons. And the silver that is righteous is to marry a wife and pay a dowry, and it will also be used to do a small business to support me. You have cheated him out of what little money he has, do you think that after I die, he will have no one to live on? ”

Zhang Shaofei: "Your mother is right. ”

Shi Deren: "It doesn't make much sense to talk about it now, the most important thing is to return the two sons to me." ”

Shi Deren's wife: "Yes, Ayi, even if your brother and I couldn't stand you before. But my two sons are your own nephews after all! ”

Zhang Shaofei gave Shi Deren a step down: "Shi Deren, your means of transformation are clever. Since you can turn your brother's silver into stone, you should have the ability to turn the stone back into silver, right? ”

Shi Deren: "This ......"

Shi Deren's wife pushed Shi Deren, pointed to the two clay pots with stones in the corner, and glanced at him: "What are you still doing here, this time you can't shake the pot without oil." And bring back the two jars of silver that thou shalt be righteous. ”
