Chapter 174: Selling Wo Wo Tou

In the early morning of the next day, Zhang Yongjie was still asleep, and Tang Yan had already gotten up. Tang Yan dressed up in front of the dresser, she used to be a yellow flower girl, and now she is married to a woman, so she combed a woman's hair in a bun.

The owner of the hotel had already sent someone to bring breakfast, Tang Yan came to the bed and pulled Zhang Yongjie's palm and kneaded it gently. This is Tang Yan's unique way of getting people up, which is both gentle and effective.

Zhang Yongjie woke up slowly, saw Tang Yan's appearance, and suddenly felt a sense of warmth, and a sense of responsibility also arose. Now, he is also a family man, and having a family means being responsible. As a man, he is obviously responsible for the survival of his family.

After the meal, the young couple talked about the future, and Tang Yan asked, "Brother, where are we going now?"

Zhang Yongjie was once known as Zhang Shaoxia of Qiandao, although it is a false name, but there is also this false name. It stands to reason that the joy of Zhang Shaoxia's wedding on the thousand islands shouldn't be the noise of gongs and drums, the sound of firecrackers, and the victory of friends?

But Zhang Yongjie is falling into a low point in his life at the moment, and now no one buys his face as Zhang Shaoxia of the Thousand Islands. So it was very shabby to think of this wedding, and Zhang Yongjie felt ashamed in his heart.

At this moment, Tang Yan asked where to go in the future, Zhang Yongjie thought for a while, he had offended Uncle Fang just a few days ago, maybe his old man was angry now, and he should not go back to Qiandao for now.

Senior Brother Zhou Shaokun and Senior Sister Liu Qingqing are both in Xiangxi Blood Drink Valley at the moment, and the eldest sister Yang Shan has already invited herself to the Blood Drink Valley as a guest, which is a good place to go.

On the other hand, the two brothers Li Geng and Zhang Zhi had already arrived at the Yellow Crane Tower in Wuchang and developed there, and later entrusted Situ Xiongwu, Yuwen Tiezhu and You Jinda and other brothers to send them silver, presumably they have been able to gain a firm foothold in Wuchang, so this Wuchang is also a good choice.

Zhang Yongjie was about to speak, but he felt that the wedding of marrying Tang Yan's sister was very shabby, and he was quite sorry for Tang Yan, so he asked Tang Yan to talk about her thoughts, which may be the so-called respect for each other.

Tang Yan muttered: "When I first met my brother, my brother wanted to go to Hangzhou, and since this year, Hangzhou has not been successful, so it is better to go to Hangzhou now." ”

Zhang Yongjie thought to himself that going to Hangzhou was a place that was casually arranged by the division to carry out the 'Jianghu Travel' assessment, and there was nothing serious about going there, and he didn't know what to do.

But at this moment, I thought about it again, as the so-called heaven has Suzhou and Hangzhou, this Hangzhou must be picturesque, and after the newlyweds, it is also excellent to go to a place with beautiful scenery to play.

Tang Yan said this, Zhang Yongjie decided to respect Tang Yan's opinion and go to Hangzhou for a walk together.

Zhang Yongjie pondered that his internal strength had been lost at this moment, and the number of enemies before was not very numerous, although Tang Yan followed the Remnant Yang swordsman to practice the 'Remnant Yang Swordsmanship', and her martial arts have improved, but the rivers and lakes are sinister, there are mountains outside the mountains, and there are people outside the people, so I am afraid that it will be dangerous if I am too ostentatious.

And this chasing BMW is the most conspicuous at present, chasing the wind BMW is a little taller than ordinary horses, and it is easy to be seen. And who in the world doesn't know that this wind-chasing BMW is under the crotch of Zhang Shaoxia of Qiandao?

Zhang Yongjie originally planned to return the horse to Miss Hu Siyu, but Miss Hu Siyu refused to accept it.

After some planning, Zhang Yongjie entrusted Tang Wuyuan, Tang Bi, and Tang Lu to send this wind-chasing horse to the Yellow Crane Tower in Wuchang and handed it over to Li Geng, Zhang Zhi and others for safekeeping.

The three younger siblings nodded and agreed to this errand, but they were all thinking that this brother-in-law was making a small calculation in his heart, thinking that the two of them had just gotten married, so they naturally didn't like too many people, so as not to disturb them.

But this is also human nature, and after making fun of it, he led the horse to the direction of Wuchang.

Zhang Yongjie led Tang Yan again and bought some very ordinary Han costumes in Huangmei City, so ordinary that they were similar to any peasant's clothes.

After some careful arrangements, Zhang Yongjie felt that such a dress would not attract attention, so he was satisfied with Tang Yandong.

The two of them are not in a hurry, stop and go along the way, rent a carriage when they are tired, meet the town on the road and have a play, go to Jingdezhen to see porcelain, go to Huangshan to climb high and look far, and even climb over the Huangshan welcome pine.

Coming down from Huangshan, Zhang Yongjie came to be interested and told Tang Yan about what happened when he was a child, about Yunding Mountain, about Qiandao Lake, and finally was really pulled to Qiandao Lake by a coachman.

It's just that this Qiandao Lake is located in Zhejiang, which is different from Zhang Yongjie's hometown, Qiandao Lake in northern Shubei.

Only then did Zhang Yongjie know that there was also a Qiandao Lake in Zhejiang. (Note: The Qiandao Lake in northern Shu is made up by the author, and there is no Qiandao Lake in Sichuan.) It was only later that the author learned that there really was a Qiandao Lake in Zhejiang. )

Zhejiang's Qiandao Lake is picturesque, and the two of them are on a tour for a while, and after they are happy, they rent a carriage to go east, go along the Qiantang River Riverside Avenue, and finally reach Hangzhou.

Hangzhou is not only picturesque, but also very prosperous, the West Lake also has the legend of the White Lady, and there are people performing songs and dances every night in Hangzhou Songcheng.

Zhang Yongjie and Tang Yan had a tour in Hangzhou, and then continued east, wanting to see the appearance of the sea.

By the time Zhang Yongjie and Tang Yan arrived at a small town called Ningshan by the sea, two months had passed.

It's early August, and it's the hottest day of the year. Therefore, every evening, there are often people frolicking on the beach, so it is not lively.

The real sea and the imaginary sea are two different things, and only those who have actually been to the seaside can appreciate the turbulence of the sea and experience the indestructibility of the waves.

After a period of stay, Zhang Yongjie felt that the small city of Ningshan was very good and liked it very much. So they rented a small house in the city and lived a small life.

Who would have thought that the famous Qiandao Zhang Shaoxia would take his new wife, Tang Yan, the eldest daughter of the Tang family, to live in seclusion in Ningshan, a small city that can't be found on this map?

There is no mountain in Ningshan, and there is a sea in front of the door, so it is more appropriate to call Ninghai. But the place name is passed down from generation to generation, and the ancestors called this place Ningshan, what can be done?

In order to further hide his whereabouts, Zhang Yongjie remembered that when he was in Yanyun, the six monkeys and the four lai gangsters jokingly called themselves Wanhu Li Ronghao, so they simply changed their name to Li Ronghao, and let Tang Yan take the pseudonym Zhang Yan, and the husband and wife lived in seclusion in this Ningshan City.

As the saying goes, distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors, and neighbors Uncle Zheng and Aunt Zheng, Uncle Li and Aunt Li, Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang, etc., are all very good people.

They also helped Zhang Yongjie and Tang Yan a lot to settle down here, such as borrowing a table and so on. The four families live together, and although there is a bit of a gap in age, they are also happy.

These days, Zhang Yongjie and Tang Yan, husband and wife, made wowotou at night, and took them to the market to exchange silver taels during the day.

Every early in the morning, Zhang Yongjie would push a stall converted from a small car to the most lively overpass in Ningshan City to sell wowotou.

This small stall modified with a small car was modified by Uncle Zheng for Zhang Yongjie, and there is a nest head made by Tang Yan on it.

'Sell the nest and the head, four pennies. ’

Zhang Yongjie roared at the top of his voice, because of the cheap price, he said that Zhang Yongjie's business was also very popular, and he often met Uncle Zheng and Aunt Zheng, Uncle Li and Aunt Li, as well as Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang and other acquaintances.

At this time, Zhang Yongjie would smile awkwardly, and took out the nest head and handed it to their children.

It is precisely because of Zhang Yongjie and Tang Yan's generosity that those children also like to play with Uncle Li and Aunt Zhang.

Uncle Zheng is a more joking uncle, not only loves to joke, but also a little bad and a little bad, in the words of the people, this Uncle Zheng is a bad uncle who does not fall into the religion.

Uncle Zheng often encouraged Zhang Yongjie and said: "Xiao Li, just like this, work hard, earn enough silver taels, maybe you can marry a concubine in the future." ”

Whenever Uncle Zheng said this, Aunt Zheng would pull Uncle Zheng's ears and educate her, and Aunt Zheng said: "Xiao Li, don't listen to your Uncle Zheng's nonsense." ”

Zhang Yongjie said with a smile: "How could I listen to Uncle Zheng, this nest is made by Yan'er, I took the silver taels earned by Yan'er to ask for a concubine, then I'm not finished?"

When Uncle Zheng saw Zhang Yongjie's words, he teased again: "The young man has no ambition and is not open-minded, hehe." ”

The days passed day by day, Zhang Yongjie and Tang Yan lived in seclusion in Ningshan Town, living an ordinary and ordinary life. Live the life that thousands of families should live.

'The moon rises on the sea, and the end of the world is at this time. ’

In the blink of an eye, the Mid-Autumn Festival has arrived, and a round of bright sun has risen above the sea, signaling that the day of reunion has arrived.

On this day, Uncle Zheng's family invited neighbors to their courtyard to gather for dinner and wine to celebrate the festival. For outsiders like Zhang Yongjie and Tang Yan, Uncle Zheng's move can make up for his homelessness to a certain extent.

Therefore, Zhang Yongjie and Tang Yan are also very happy to be able to participate in such an event, and they also have more closeness to the neighbors around them.

Tang Yan, Aunt Zheng, Aunt Li, Aunt Zhang and other women have already made a lot of sumptuous dishes, including fish, meat, and moon cakes.

Tang Yan was ingenious and deliberately made a kind of 'snow skin moon cake', which opened the eyes of the neighbors and praised Tang Yan for being very capable.

Those children took the 'snow skin mooncakes' and ate them happily, and they even ran out of the street to show off to their playmates, and after gaining more envy, these children liked the young Aunt Zhang even more.

The children next door were crying and ran to Uncle Zheng's house to beg for 'snowy skin mooncakes.' ’

Whoever can get a piece of 'snow skin moon cake' will become the object of envy in the eyes of the little friends, infinitely glorious.

Tang Yan couldn't cry or laugh, so she had to make another batch of 'snow skin mooncakes' and distribute them to those children to make them happy.

Zhang Yongjie took the 'snow skin moon cake', took a good look at it, and thought that Yan'er's internal force had increased again, and she could use her internal force to freeze a thin layer of ice on top of the moon cake.

Uncle Zheng teased: "Xiao Li's daughter-in-law has this skill, so just let Xiao Li sell 'Ice Skin Wotou' in the future, and the people who keep the whole city will come to take care of Xiao Li's business." ”

Tang Yan thinks this is a good idea, but Zhang Yongjie knows that if you want to freeze water into ice, you must consume internal force, if you make a large number of 'ice skin nests', then Tang Yan's sister may be exhausted, how can Zhang Yongjie be willing to do this.

Zhang Yongjie shook his head at the moment and said: "Everyone's picture is just fresh for a while, I still like to sell wowotou." Uncle Zheng is having a bad idea again, so we don't fall for it. ”

Talking and laughing, it was time to start the meal, Zhang Yongjie and Uncle Zheng, Uncle Li, and Uncle Zhang sat at the same table, and the women, children and children over there opened another table.

As soon as the four of them took their seats, Uncle Zheng took the lead in pouring a bowl of rice wine for Zhang Yongjie and asked Zhang Yongjie to drink it.

Unexpectedly, Uncle Zheng poured Zhang Yongjie full again, and said with a smile: "Xiao Li, our rule here is that you have to do three bowls first." ”

Zhang Yongjie was puzzled and asked, "Why do you want me to make three bowls first? Isn't this wine drunk by everyone?"

Uncle Zheng grinned and said, "You don't know, according to our rules in Ningshan, you have to drink three bowls before we can drink it." ”

Uncle Zheng said this, Uncle Li, and Uncle Zhang also knew that Uncle Zheng was deliberately pouring Zhang Yongjie to drink, and they also joined in the fun at the moment, and said one after another: "Yes, there are such rules." ”

Zhang Yongjie also knew that Uncle Zheng was pouring himself to drink, and said, "What kind of rule is this, isn't this bullying?"

Uncle Zheng was eating the dishes, and when he heard Zhang Yongjie say this, he put down his chopsticks, stood up and said to Zhang Yongjie: "No, this is because the Ningshan region was poor in the past, and he was reluctant to drink wine, so we must let the guests drink it first, and after the guests drink three bowls, we can only drink." ”

Zhang Yongjie smiled: "Am I also a guest?"

Uncle Zheng said hehehehe: "Xiao Li, you are not a native of Ningshan, of course you are a guest, come on, come on, the second bowl is dry." ”

Zhang Yongjie saw Uncle Zheng, Uncle Li and Uncle Zhang first, eating delicious food in large chunks, but fooling himself into drinking, this Uncle Zheng was really naughty again.

Zhang Yongjie said at the moment: "Uncle Zheng, look, now that our lives are better, can this rule be changed, let's drink together." ”

Uncle Zheng hurriedly shook his head again and said, "It can't be changed, it can't be changed." ”

Zhang Yongjie wanted to hear how Uncle Zheng persuaded him to drink, and said, "Why?"

Uncle Zheng said with a smile: "Because I am from Ningshan, live a good life, do not forget the hard life, we have to pass on this glorious tradition from generation to generation." I have wronged myself, I can't wronged the guests, Xiao Li, you are here, can we wronged you? Come, the second bowl is dry, hehe. ”

Zhang Yongjie thought it was interesting, drank the second bowl of wine again, and said, "Just drink two bowls." ”

Uncle Zheng poured the third bowl of wine for Zhang Yongjie and said: "Xiao Li, you have to fight another bowl, let me tell you, no one in our country will run away from these three bowls of wine, drink it, let's drink it with you." ”

Zhang Yongjie couldn't say that Uncle Zheng was helpless for a while, so he had to say: "Just drink three bowls, let's drink the next bowl together." ”

Uncle Zheng patted his chest and promised, "We'll drink the next bowl, right?" ”

Uncle Li and Uncle Zhang hurriedly nodded, testified on behalf of Uncle Zheng, and said, "We will all drink the next bowl." ”

Aunt Zheng over there also knew that they were tricking Zhang Yongjie into drinking, and Aunt Zheng smiled and said: "Xiao Li, your Uncle Zheng is very bad, don't believe him, we don't have this rule here, just forget it if you can't drink." ”

Aunt Li and Aunt Zhang also said: "Yes, yes, this old Zheng is very bad, and he has brought our old Li (Lao Zhang) to ruin." ”

Uncle Zheng poured the third bowl of wine for Zhang Yongjie with a bowl, and said with a smile: "Women, hurry up and eat, I have already seen that Xiao Li has a good amount of wine." ”

Zhang Yongjie finished drinking the third bowl, hurriedly sandwiched two chopsticks to eat, and said with a smile: "If you persuade wine like Uncle Zheng, no one can resist it." ”

Those children also came over to join in the fun, eating the chicken legs on the table, and saying that Grandpa Zheng was a bad grandfather.

Zhang Yongjie and Tang Yan don't think Uncle Zheng is bad, it's just that he likes to joke and play tricks on people, and he is essentially a cute uncle, a helpful and very enthusiastic uncle.

Life is like this, although ordinary, but also happy. Here, there is no need to think about the Blue Dragon Society, the White Dragon Society, and the messy people and things such as Li Yanjin, Shi Yunshan, Li Ling, etc. Here, there are only himself and Tang Yan, and a group of simple people.

If he could, Zhang Yongjie would even be willing to live like this for the rest of his life.

If Zhang Yongjie chooses to live in seclusion in the hinterland of Daming, maybe this is not a dream. Obviously, in Jiajing, Daming, on the southeast coast, it is impossible to live in seclusion for such a lifetime.

What happened on this day shattered such a quiet and happy life, and also broke Zhang Yongjie's dream of seclusion.

There was no difference between this day and the usual days, Zhang Yongjie was selling 'wowotou' under the overpass, or 'four pennies', and there was no price increase.

The bell rang suddenly and quickly at the head of Ningshan City, the bell was dense and nervous, and suddenly the crowd on the street was in a commotion, shouting, and running around in a hurry.

Zhang Yongjie didn't know what was going on, so he hurriedly walked out of the stall and came to the middle of the street.

Zhang Yongjie wanted to know what was going on, why it suddenly seemed like the sky had fallen. But no one paid any attention to him, and everyone just fled in a hurry.

'Tsunami?' 'Earthquake?' This is Zhang Yongjie's first reaction, but there is no feeling of shaking the ground at the moment, it is definitely not an earthquake, and if there are frequent tsunamis here, there will be no city built here at all.

Zhang Yongjie glanced around, but saw that the gate in the east of the city was closed, and there was constantly a sound of being impacted, Zhang Yongjie had never experienced this kind of thing, so so far, he didn't know what was going on, so he stood on the street in a daze.

The city gate was smashed by long logs, making a crackling sound, followed by a group of soldiers and horses, black and oppressive soldiers and horses continued to pour into the city, these soldiers and horses held long knives, saw people slashing and killing. All of a sudden, the wails were all over the place, and the people were miserable.

In a hurry, I don't know who shouted:

"The Wako are coming. ”
