Chapter 50: Throwing hydrangeas to recruit relatives
This operation to rob the Yang family's convoy was a complete failure, not only did they not grab a penny of silver, but the money and property they brought were looted, and the robbers who left were very aggrieved in their hearts, and they all buried their heads in the road without saying a word.
The goat noticed that the good brother monkey next to him was different from the others, and he was the only one who was still smirking stupidly, as if he usually had the same expression as if he had made a small fortune.
"Monkey, what's the matter with you, I think something is wrong with you!" asked the goat.
"Goat, tell you, I have earned twenty taels of silver today. The monkey whispered excitedly.
"How can this be possible, we are together in the morning, get up in bed, and then you have never left my sight, how can you have a chance to earn twenty taels of silver!" The goat thought that the monkey was delirious and stupid after being robbed.
"Look!" the monkey pulled out a silver ticket and showed it to the goat.
The goat looked at it, and sure enough, it was a silver ticket of twenty taels of silver, but the smell of the silver ticket was a little abnormal.
"Where did you come from, haven't we all been robbed?" the goat was taken aback.
"Hehe, you don't understand this, I secretly hid this silver ticket in my boots, and they didn't find out. The monkey boasted proudly, even happier than he usually had grabbed twenty taels of silver.
"Fuck, why didn't you tell me sooner, ah, pity my two taels of silver, why didn't I think to hide it in my boots!" the goat howled.
......
Lin Xiaoxie exchanged all the silver he had robbed from the robbers for a portable silver ticket from Master Yang, and then handed over the yellow horse to the Yang family's convoy, asking Master Yang to help him go to the nearest beggar stronghold.
The Anyang County that Lin Xiaoxie was going to and the destination of the Yang family's convoy were different, Lin Xiaoxie chatted with Master Yang casually, and then rode the jade lion to say goodbye first.
Lin Xiaoxie has been gone for a long time, and the Yang family's convoy is still talking about the robbers and Lin Xiaoxie just now.
"Haha, when you first met the robbers, you were scared to pee when you saw so many people!"
"I don't have it, they are a lot of people, and if you really do it, I may not be afraid of them. ”
"Lin Shaoxia's martial arts are really strong, it's the first time I've seen a master who can defeat a hundred with one enemy!"
"It's not one against a hundred, Lin Shaoxia definitely has the strength to fight a thousand with one!"
"Lin Shaoxia is so handsome, he is still a young man, I don't know if there is a marriage match in the beggar gang?" asked an aunt from the Yang family.
"I heard that most of the beggars are rough men, and there are few women. An older guard replied.
When Xiao Qiyi, a beautiful girl in a strong suit, heard this, her eyes couldn't help but light up.
"Beggar Gang ~ Lin Xiaoxie ~~ Lin Xiaoye ~ Beggar Gang ~~~" Xiao Qi, a beautiful girl in a strong suit, muttered to herself while riding a horse.
The eyes of Xiao Qi, a beautiful and powerful girl, are getting brighter and brighter.
"Daddy, I'm not leaving!" Xiao Qi, a beautiful and powerful girl, stopped her mount and said loudly to Master Yang.
"What's wrong with you, my aunt!" said Master Yang helplessly.
"Dad, I've decided, I'm going to Guangling City to join the beggar gang!" Xiao Qi, a beautiful and powerful girl, said with a firm expression.
......
As soon as Lin Xiaoxie entered the county seat of Anyang County, he felt that the atmosphere in the county town was different from the outside, with lights everywhere, as if celebrating some festival, and the pedestrians on the street also looked a little abnormal, especially the young men, with excited expressions and walking with the wind.
Lin Xiaoxie stopped a half-grown boy dressed as a fourteen or fifteen-year-old beggar and showed him his beggar waist card.
Those who can beg in the county are generally beggars who have a relationship with the beggar gang.
"It turned out to be Brother Lin who came from the beggar gang Guangling, Brother Lin, you just call me Little Bell. "Half the eldest son gave Lin Xiaoxiao a salute.
Lin Xiaoxiao chatted with Little Bell and learned that Little Bell was separated from his parents when he was two or three years old, and was later adopted by an old beggar.
"Little bell, is there any happy event in Anyang County?" Lin Xiaoxie asked.
This is a good official, who cleans himself up internally and works diligently for the people; he cracks down on bandits externally, enforces the law impartially, and from time to time opens warehouses to release grain and give relief to the poor. Little Bell said with a respectful face.
"And then?" Lin Xiaoxie asked.
Three days ago, the county government posted a notice, Lord Liu wanted to choose a fast son-in-law by throwing hydrangea for his beloved daughter Liu Xixi, the notice stated that a beautiful marriage is destined by God, and God is destined to have the greatest fate, as long as you grab the hydrangea is an adult man under the age of forty who is not married, regardless of wealth or poverty, origin, you can marry Liu Xixi as a wife. Lord Liu's marriage is the marriage of all the people in Anyang County, and the people in the city also spontaneously celebrate because of this incident. Little Bell explained.
"How does Lord Liu's daughter look?" Lin Xiaoxie asked curiously. Is it too ugly to get married, so I threw the hydrangea for sale!
"Miss Liu also went out to play by chance, I have seen them all, Fang Ling is twenty-eight, I see You Pian! If you can marry Miss Liu, it will be a step to the sky in Anyang County!" said Xiao Ling with a regretful and yearning expression, because he was still underage and was not qualified to grab hydrangeas at all.
"When does hydrangea throwing start?" Lin Xiaoxie asked.
"Tomorrow morning," replied the little bell.
"Ha~Ha~Ha" Lin Xiaoxie burst into laughter, this thing is simply tailor-made for me, the 'protagonist', as long as I go to participate in the hydrangea grabbing tomorrow, and... , It's just that this county order is a little smaller, that is, the official of the county official, if there is a general, the prince, to throw the hydrangea to recruit the dragon fast son-in-law, this matter will be more perfect.
"Brother Lin, what are you laughing at, do you want to go too... Heck, tomorrow will definitely be crowded, and you won't be able to grab it. Little Bell said.
"It's nothing, it's just that I thought of a happy thing, by the way, I'm going to start grabbing hydrangeas tomorrow, so today's embroidery building has been built, let's go and see it first." Lin Xiaoxie held the jade lion in one hand and the small bell in the other, and said excitedly.
The little bell took Lin Xiaoxie to the embroidery building where the hydrangea was thrown to recruit relatives.
It won't start until tomorrow, but there are already a lot of onlookers at the scene, most of them are young men gathered together, pointing at the embroidery building, and discussing.
Lin Xiaoxie took a look at the embroidery building, it is a newly built two-storey wooden building, the whole wooden building is hung with red ribbons, red ribbons, dressed up very festively, there is a plaque on the high part of the second floor, on which the dragon flies and the phoenix dance with five gilt characters "throwing hydrangea to recruit son-in-law"!
Lin Xiaoxiao observed the surrounding environment, and not far from the embroidery building was the county government of Anyang County.
