Chapter 177: A Hearty Breakfast Sells Singing Grandchildren
Xiao Mingzi took the pair of singers to the private room on the second floor, and Chen Yong urged him to serve some pastries and snacks. After Xiao Mingzi agreed and turned to leave, Chen Yong looked at the old and young in front of him, the ragged singer, and felt uncomfortable in his heart.
Chen Yong said: "Old man, are you a father and daughter? Why is this happening? Is it because there is a famine at home, so you came out to beg for food?"
The old man said: "This little boy, we are two ancestors and grandchildren, this is my granddaughter, and the villain's family is a resident of Qinjiatun, sixty miles away from this Liaodong Town.
Qinjiatun was slaughtered ten days ago, and one of the villain's eyes was blinded at that time. The villagers in Tunli have suffered countless deaths and injuries, their food and money have been looted, and the people are really full of corpses, and only a few dozen people are alive.
At this time, looking at Ye Chengcheng, his eyebrows were already upside down, Qiu Rengui was also born from the side of evil, but he was still sensible, and gently patted Ye Chengcheng with his hand.
That Ye Chengcheng was not a child, so he naturally knew that now was not the time to know the details, so he suppressed his anger and stood aside. He came to see what Chen Yong could do in this limited time.
At this time, Concubine Ning Yun was even more angry, and when she was about to take the case, Chen Yong reached out and grabbed her sister's little hand, pulling her to her heart. Concubine Ning Yun was taken aback by Chen Yong's intimate movements, and immediately realized her gaffe, and began to quiet down.
But when we came to this Liaodong town with great difficulty, it was difficult to enter the city gate. The little old man and the little girl spent a lot of money to enter the city gate on the pretext of curing the disease.
It's been two days since you entered the city gate, what's the use of finding the old man's yamen? No one cares about you! This is really in line with the old saying, 'The eight-character yamen opens to the south, and if you have reason and no money, don't come in!'
Now the two of us are penniless, and if we want to earn two dollars to eat by singing for a living, it is difficult in this Liaodong Town! The villain has been hungry for a day and a night, it doesn't matter if I die, what can I do with my granddaughter!"
At this time, Xiao Mingzi happened to push the door in with all kinds of snacks, and Xiao Mingzi's tray was really big enough. There is not only a large pot of sour plum soup, but also four lotus leaf rice, a large plate of ham meat, and a dessert of bone-in abalone cake.
Xiao Mingzi saw that the two ragged singers were sitting down to drink the big porridge, and the bowl was already clean at this time. He was surprised in his heart, but he only glanced at the two of them, so naturally he didn't say anything. He naturally understands the truth that illness comes from the mouth and disaster comes from the mouth.
Xiao Mingzi put the tray down, first put the sour plum soup in the middle of the table, then took out the plate of ham meat, and then the dessert bone-in abalone cake. He took out a lotus leaf rice first, and when he was hesitating who to serve, Chen Yong pointed to the two grandparents and grandsons who were singing. Xiao Mingzi hurriedly put one in front of the two people.
Chen Yong said: "Old man, no matter what, I'll take care of your grandparents and grandchildren first." If you believe me, leave with us in a moment, and I'll see if I can find a way to help you. If you don't believe us, you two can leave after dinner, and I won't force it. ”
The old man was so excited that he was about to kneel down and kowtow while pulling his granddaughter, but Chen Yong hurriedly stopped him and stretched out his hand to point outside. When the old man was wondering, he heard the sound of footsteps going up the stairs outside, and he suddenly realized that this prince didn't want outsiders to see it.
Chen Yong asked the old man and his granddaughter to sit down and drink a bowl of porridge, and after the old man hurriedly thanked him, the two sat down and drank. When Xiao Mingzi entered the door, the old man and his granddaughter had already finished drinking a large bowl of porridge, and they were obviously unsatisfied.
Ye Tingcheng and Qiu Rengui were even more polite, eating ham meat while opening lotus leaf rice, and beckoning their ancestors and grandchildren to eat and drink soup together.
The two of them had been hungry for a day, and a bowl of porridge was only enough to cushion the bottom, and at this time, their appetite was just open, so they naturally would not be polite, and it was inconvenient to say words of gratitude in front of the shopkeeper, so they ate with their heads bored.
Chen Yong and Concubine Ning Yun were already full at this time, and reached out to pick up a bone-in abalone cake. The pastries here are made like snails, pink and white. Concubine Chen Yongning Yun each picked up one and filled it into each other's mouths.
Then Chen Yong asked Xiao Mingzi to send two portions of lotus leaf rice to Ye Tingcheng and Qiu Rengui. The little Mingzi hurriedly put a small bowl in front of everyone, and then helped to serve the sour plum soup.
Chen Yong picked up his chopsticks at this time and beckoned everyone to eat together. Concubine Ning Yun was not polite, picked up a piece of ham meat and ate it, and then drank another sip of sour plum soup.
said: "I didn't expect that there are such delicious things in this Liaodong region, and I really earned it when I went out with Brother Yong this time." Come on, let's eat together, you're welcome, my brave brother is still very generous. ”
Everyone still seems to be a little unfull, and it seems that they can still eat some, but Chen Yong has already asked Xiao Mingzi to settle the bill.
Chen Yong looked at Concubine Ning Yun and said, "If breakfast is eaten like this, it is inevitable that I will gain weight again." ”
As soon as she said this, Concubine Ning Yun immediately stopped being hungry. And Ye Tingcheng and Qiu Rengui knew that the task was important, and the two of them had always maintained vigilance, and the desire for lip service was not so difficult to overcome. The grandparents and grandchildren are even more grateful. In this meal, the two of them ate the most, what else could they not be satisfied with?
Unexpectedly, this bone-in abalone snail cake melts in the mouth, the taste is delicious, sweet and fragrant, and the two of them have a feeling of unfinished after eating. Even though I'm full, I can't help but want to have another one.
And the lotus leaf rice was also eaten by Ye Chengcheng and Qiu Rengui. Looking at the singer opposite, the grandparents and grandchildren are the same in an instant, the feeling of seconds. It is estimated that it is the first time that they have eaten such delicious food.
Chen Yong asked the grandparents and grandchildren to eat ham meat again, and in the end, they ate almost enough, so they let the two of them eat this bone-in abalone snail cake. After a while, everyone drank the full table of breakfast, including the sour plum soup.
The two singers woke up from their dreams at this time, and the old man was bent on revenge and grievances for his dead relatives and friends. That girl missed her parents and brother so much, they were all killed by the enemy in front of her!
The reason why I was able to escape this catastrophe was that I was forced by my parents to change into men's clothes at the beginning. And after the three of them were killed, they all surrounded themselves in the middle. I was frightened and fainted at that time, I couldn't cry or move, and because of this, I escaped the catastrophe.
I and my grandfather thought of beating drums and shouting grievances in Liaodong Town, but they didn't expect that before they arrived at the gate of the yamen, they had been driven out by the three classes of yamen. It turns out that the way of the world is the same everywhere, the world is as black as a crow, and ordinary people like themselves are estimated to have many deaths, and this official will not feel distressed.
Chen Yong then looked at his grandparents and said, "Originally, I wanted to go for a walk and go for a walk, but now I am sleepy when I am full." If you want, can you come to my rented room and sing a song to me? Don't worry, my Chen Gongzi will not give you less silver. ”
After speaking, Chen Yong no longer paid attention to the two, took Concubine Ning Yun's hand by himself, followed by Ye Tingcheng and Qiu Rengui, and the four of them walked out of the Yuelai Inn together.
The little Mingzi pushed the two ancestors and grandchildren who were still in a daze and said: "Gentlemen, think about it, what else do you have to worry about others? If not, then such a good opportunity, why not seize it? People may only have this chance to turn over, at least this Chen Gongzi, I think he is a good person!"
The girl broke in directly, rushing towards the courtyard gate. Chen Yong saw the little girl's resolute gaze, and couldn't help but think of himself at that time.
Could it be that when I was penniless at that time, I was in the same mood as she is now? If it weren't for the help of nobles, I guess I would have been eaten and wiped clean by the Qingcheng faction just like my parents. So how can you still have your current self?
No matter what, Huashan Pai Yue Buqun and his wife have the grace of reinvention for themselves. Especially Senior Sister Yue Lingshan, she is even more blue-eyed to herself. Without the help of his senior sister, he might have been killed by the Qingcheng faction. Therefore, in this life, I must let Yue Lingshan be my wife, so that she will be as happy as she is now for the rest of her life.
That Chen Gongzi can be regarded as a lifesaver for his ancestors and grandchildren. It seems that he has a good relationship with the young lady, and the intimacy between the two is really enviable. He wouldn't have looked at me like this, and I believe he was genuinely willing to help us.
The little girl reached out and took her grandfather's hand, and then walked quickly out of the gate of the Yuelai Inn. At this time, I saw Chen Yong and a group of four people, who were at the gate of the courtyard opposite with the sign of Yuelai Inn, opening the door.
The grandfather and grandson hurried over. Chen Yong had already heard footsteps behind him, and he had already guessed who it was. The four of them opened the courtyard door and rushed in, and when they were about to close the door, the grandfather and grandson had already arrived.
Chen Yong watched the old man kowtow to himself, and his heart was blocked for a while, when will this society really become normal?
As soon as the old man bent down, he would bow down. Chen Yong hurriedly stopped the two and ordered them not to speak loudly now. Then they all went into the middle of the courtyard, and they all went into the garden, and sat down in this pavilion among the flowers.
The old man took his granddaughter and knelt down for Chen Yong and the other four people, and Chen Yong couldn't stop him. This scene Qiu Rengui has seen the most, and no matter that time, he will be excited. Because this is your own choice, you will never regret it for the rest of your life!
Chen Yong looked at the girl who rushed over regardless of it, and his heart couldn't help but soften, and slowly opened the courtyard door. The girl and the old man broke into the courtyard together, and Chen Yong quickly closed the door and turned to look at the two.
In any case, since we have already encountered this kind of thing, we must take care of it, and we must take care of it! We must ensure that these suffering and suffering people of Li can have a happy tomorrow. Let them have something to rely on, support for the old, and enjoy the old!
