Chapter 32: The Nguyen Brothers

When the man heard this, he immediately stopped, stopped the people behind him, and looked Zou Run up and down, the hostility in his eyes gradually disappeared, but there was still a little suspicion, and he asked:

"Your Excellency is from Dengzhou? Also called Zou Run? ”

Zou Run smiled when he heard this, and asked rhetorically: "No, Zou Run, it was from Dengzhou that he traveled all the way to get here today." Listening to my brother's intentions, is there a second Zou Run in Dengzhou? ”

"Ayya! It is really Zou Run, the famous little Qin king on the rivers and lakes! I don't know if the real person is in person, but Ruan Xiaoer is so offended, please forgive me for the inappropriateness! ”

Ruan Xiaoer was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly put the harpoon in his hand into the ground, and saluted with his crossed hands.

Seeing that it was really Tai Sui Ruan Xiaoer, Zou Run was overjoyed, and hurriedly stepped forward to support him, saying, "It's just a small name, it's not worth mentioning." ”

But Ruan Xiaoer is a solid man, he is stunned to worship, and Zou Run insists on helping. Both of them have martial arts by their side, and which one does not have hundreds of catties of strength in his hands, and he froze there for a while.

The people around him saw the clue and knew that the two were competing for strength, so they all stood there to watch. People on both sides know their own details, and all the fishing dealers know that Ruan Xiaoer is as strong as an ox, and the minions of Dengyun Mountain naturally also understand that their own village owners have outstanding martial arts and excellent strength, and they are looking forward to the two heroes being superior.

On the village road, I saw Ruan Xiaoer's face flushed, and he actually saw sweat on his forehead in the cold weather, on the other hand, although Zou Yuan also had a straight face and gritted his teeth, he didn't seem to do his best, so after a while, Zou Run suddenly withdrew his strength in his hand and arched his hand:

"It is worthy of being the second brother of the Ruan family who is called Tai Sui in the rivers and lakes, and he has a good strength, Zou Run has learned this way."

Looking at Zou Run's calm face, Ruan Xiaoer knew that he had spare strength, but he took the initiative to let go, just to save face for himself in front of everyone, and a feeling of admiration couldn't help but rise in his heart, and secretly said that the rumors in the rivers and lakes were true, this Zou Run was really very similar to Li Shimin, the king of Qin, and had a heroic atmosphere.

"Where is the owner of Zou Zhai, my family knows my own affairs, how can I compare with such a famous hero in the rivers and lakes? Speaking out must teach people to laugh. ”

Both of them admired each other from the bottom of their hearts, and their words were very polite and harmonious, and although it was the first time they met, they talked very happily, just like friends who had known each other for many years. In the end, a village man couldn't stand it, and said that Ruan Xiaoer was sloppy, how could there be a reason for a distinguished guest to speak in the heavy snow.

Ruan Xiaoer came back to his senses at this time, hurriedly apologized, and personally led the way in front, drank away a group of villagers, and led Zou Run and the three of them into the house to sit down. Ruan Xiaoer's old child is at home.

The women in the village are not as well-behaved as the women in the city, Ruan Xiaoer's wife, wife, and children saw the guests, and they were busy cleaning up the tables, chairs and benches, and came out to greet them. Zou Run hurriedly let go of his body, and replied while saluting back:

"Xiao Ke Zou Run, I have seen the old lady, I have seen my sister-in-law and nephew."

Ruan Xiaoer introduced on the side, only saying that this was a distinguished guest from Dengzhou, so he wanted to tell his wife to cook, Zou Run stopped unhurriedly, waved his hand slightly, and took out a few things from the package carried by the horses outside the house.

Three finest sheepskin coats, three horses of brightly coloured fabrics, a box of tonics, a few boxes of preserves, and two jars of fine wine.

"Approaching the end of the year, the first time I came to the door, there were no good things, I prepared a small gift, and I asked the old lady and sister-in-law to accept it."

All kinds of gifts were piled up on the square table in the hall like a hill, and the women and children in the room were stunned for a while, not wanting this distinguished guest to be generous, and wherever they dared to accept it, they all looked at Ruan Xiaoer with their eyes. Ruan Xiaoer didn't expect Zou Run to be so extravagant, so he hurriedly stood up and excused himself.

"How does the earth come into being? Zou Zhai ...... The big officials quickly put it away, don't dare to take it as a generous gift......"

"Haha, the second brother doesn't want this, some small things, although they are not worth any money, but they are all little brothers who are thousands of miles away, brought here all the way from Dengzhou, they have their own filial piety in the little brother, the old lady and sister-in-law know good people, and they will not brush the hearts of the younger generations." Zou Run smiled and said a reason, forcibly stopped Ruan Xiaoer, and mouthed towards his companion Nunu, urging them to send things to the inner room.

Ruan Xiao's strength was not as strong as Zou Run's, and he couldn't break free several times, so he could only say again and again, he had to say that he had to do it. Where would Zou Run listen to him, but smiled and retorted.

"The second brother is so unreasonable, you must know that these things are all gifts from the younger brother to the old lady and sister-in-law and nephew, and there are a number of piles in them. The three coats were given by the younger brother to the old lady, sister-in-law and nephew to keep out the cold in winter; The three pieces of fabric were given to the old lady, sister-in-law, and nephew to cut new clothes for the New Year; The tonic list is for the old lady, and the candied fruit is for the nephew as a snack, that is, the wine is also a tiger bone medicinal wine, which is given to the old lady and sister-in-law to strengthen the body. has no share of the second brother, but the second brother is not easy to speak. ”

This gift really took Zou Run's thoughts, he knew that the three brothers of the Ruan family were not ordinary people who were greedy for money, and this gift of meeting for the first time, if they came up and gave very valuable objects, they would definitely refuse to leave.

So after thinking about it hard, Zou Run picked out some gifts that their family urgently needed in the cold winter months, and the price was moderate, and they could reflect their personal intentions. Otherwise, there is a lot of gold and silver in Dengyun Cottage, silk and satin, not Zou Run is reluctant, but this thing is not the way to make friends with heroes.

Ruan Xiaoer's heart really warmed, and the strength to break free in his hand gradually decreased.

"So...... Thank you for your kindness......"

"Where is my brother, you and I have righteous fellowship, where do you care about this!"

The women and children in the house, seeing Ruan Xiaoer's acquiescence, no longer concealed their joy, and hurriedly set up the table and stools and served tea. Ruan Xiaoer's Hun family was even more joyful and was about to cook and clean up the wine and food, but Zou Run stopped him again.

"Sister-in-law is busy, I still have to talk to the fifth brother and the seventh brother, and I will bother me at night."

Saying that, he forcibly pulled Ruan Xiaoer out of the door, Ruan Xiaoer half-pushed, half-pushed, untied a small boat from the dead tree stump in front of the door, asked Zou Run and the three of them to sit down, and rowed the boat towards the lake.

At this time, the snow began to fall again, disturbing and drifting with the wind, spreading lakes, mountains and dense forests. There is no half-human figure on the huge lake, let alone a boat, the world is quiet, Zou Run was originally gossiping with Ruan Xiaoer, seeing this scenery, he blurted out: "Good Liangshanbo, good mountain, good water, good snow, good scenery!" ”

As soon as Zou Run's words fell, not far away, a small boat rowed out of a bleak and dilapidated reed, with a man standing in the bow and stern. One of them, a man with a hat, said in a loud voice:

"The second brother is a good deal, where did he find the strange guests to ferry? So angry, dare to come to the lake to see the snow scene in this snowy day? If you have to borrow money from the boat, you have to borrow from the fifth brother, and he lost all his essence today, so I just pulled him out of the gambling house, and he scolded me!
