Chapter 343: Liquor Order
"Come, Brother Li drink tea, drink tea, don't be upset about the little things before, then Zhu Erdan has no malice, after all, he is also acting righteously, although his words are a little reckless, but his personality is quite bold, and he should not be sincere. Zhu Yu persuaded with a smile.
At this moment, several people came to a piano pavilion to listen to the piano and taste tea, which was quite elegant.
However, a few people did not come here on their own initiative, but were invited by Zhu Erdan.
Li Xiuyuan didn't want to be accompanied, but he didn't want to disappoint a few friends and returned, so he agreed.
"Yes, look at that Zhu Erdan, his popularity is very good, and he didn't mean to target you, Brother Li. Wang Ping next to him also said.
Li Xiuyuan shook his head and said: "But it's not for this Zhu Erdan's business, but I'm thinking about the flower girl now." ”
"Oh, could it be that Brother Li still misses that flower girl? This is easy to do, let's go to the Xiangjiang Building again, and we will definitely see the flower girl." Zhu Yu said.
"I didn't mean that, but what the monk said made me a little concerned. Li Xiu said from afar.
Zhu Yu's expression moved, and he suddenly suppressed his voice and said, "Brother Li is worried that that flower girl is a little evil? ”
Li Xiuyuan nodded.
Wang Ping was surprised: "No, in broad daylight, can you still see the hell." ”
"Not necessarily, have you forgotten the first time you and I met?" Li Xiuyuan said.
Wang Ping was suddenly embarrassed, the first time he and Li Xiuyuan met was in the wilderness, he was bewitched by ghosts and rolled in the quagmire, now every time he thinks about it, he only feels ashamed, fortunately Brother Li didn't spread the word, otherwise he would have no face to see people, and since then, he has been much more careful, and he has not encountered any evil things for a long time.
"I asked a little guy to find out the identity of the flower girl before, maybe I can know something. Li Xiu said from afar.
"If it's okay, let's go to Xiangjiang Tower later?" Zhu Yu said with a smile, obviously thinking about the beautiful young woman.
Soon, a little guy walked in again.
"This son, the little detective is clear. The little guy hurriedly ran over and said.
"How's the situation?" Li Xiu said from afar.
The little girl said in a low voice, "There is no artist named Hua Niang in the Xiangjiang Building. ”
No?
The faces of several people froze, and some bad things instantly occurred in their hearts, and they couldn't help but feel a chill behind them.
"Why not, didn't you ask clearly? Zhu Yu said.
"A small fellow villager is there to be a buddy, how many women are there, how many maids, all are clear, the woman who a few sons said has a name and a surname is easy to find, but there is really no in the Xiangjiang Building. The little guy said.
Li Xiuyuan gave him a small piece of broken silver and said, "Thank you, little brother, your words are true, maybe we made a mistake, so I won't bother you." ”
"Thank you, Childe, for the reward. The little guy grinned and took the money and left.
"Li Gongzi, this matter is strange. Ning Caichen was rarely dignified.
Although he is upright, he has also encountered ghosts, and now there is no such person in the small house, this flower girl must be unusual.
Li Xiuyuan said, "That's right, this woman is indeed weird, if you see it in the future, you should go a little farther, don't be confused by her beauty, the lessons from the last time are still vivid." ”
"Yes, yes. Wang Ping and Zhu Yu both broke out in cold sweat on their foreheads.
They all have nightmarish memories.
"Of course, I came here to listen to Shi Niang's music, and I talked about what kind of flower girl, I really had to look forward to Shu, and I was not greedy enough. A scholar next to him seemed to hear a few words, and after passing by, he laughed a few words with a little drunkenness, and a good-looking woman next to him was holding him, for fear that he would fall.
"It's you...... Chu Tian?"
Li Xiuyuan didn't pay attention to it at first, but when this scholar passed by, he suddenly found that this man was none other than the son of the Chu family in Guo Beicheng, Chu Tian.
But now that the Chu family no longer exists, this Chu Gongzi is just a down-and-out scholar.
The flood flooded the Chu family's mansion, and now it is all barren and uncared for, and this Chu Tian has not returned to Guo Beicheng to take care of the mansion for some reason, so that all the slaves of the Chu family have been scattered.
Chu Tian seemed to have come from somewhere drinking, drunk and hazy: "Who is this Gongzi Dao, it turns out to be Li Xiuyuan, why haven't you died yet? That big flood didn't even drown you when the city was drowned." ”
"I'll keep you in mind, but unfortunately, the flood hasn't drowned me yet. Li Xiuyuan said, his attitude is not very good.
When he was in Guo Beicheng, the two of them fought to the death, he wanted to kill Li Xiuyuan, and Li Xiuyuan also sent someone to assassinate him, but unfortunately Xing Shan's arrow did not hit the vital point, although it passed through the chest, but it still failed to take his life. was rescued by that Chu Shilang's stubborn change of life.
The price is that the rest of the family's luck is exhausted, and it provokes boundless trouble.
Chu Tian picked up a teacup next to him and smashed it at Li Xiuyuan with drunkenness: "This son beat you to death, it is because of you that this son fell into such a field." ”
"The account between you and me is not settled yet, and if you want to continue to count, I can accompany you to the end. Li Xiuyuan grabbed the teacup casually, and then threw it over.
Chu Tian's body shook and fell to the ground, only to feel a lot of pain in his chest, but because he was drunk, he didn't react much.
"Li Gongzi, forgive me, Chu Gongzi was drunk, not on purpose. The woman who was holding him next to him apologized.
Li Xiuyuan glanced at it, he had some impression of this girl, it was the woman who made his couplet in Guo Beicheng, called Luoxia.
"Miss Luoxia, this Chutian is a cold-hearted and ruthless person, you came with the wrong person. ”
There was a hint of bitterness and helplessness at the corner of Luo Xia's mouth, but she didn't speak.
"Smack~!"
Chu Tian stood up suddenly, and slapped Luo Xia in the face, and then said with a drunken smile: "With the wrong person?" Hey, I can't help her, she is the concubine of my Chu family, she is a member of my Chu family in life, and death is the ghost of my Chu family, I can do whatever my son wants, does she dare to say half a word?"
Li Xiuyuan said: "If I guessed correctly, you are the only one left in your Chu family, and you even treat the only woman around you so harshly, isn't the retribution last time enough?"
"What does this son like to do with you, this son not only wants to beat her but also sells her. ”
Chu Tian suddenly said drunkly: "That young man Qian, didn't you say last time that you thought this servant girl next to me was good-looking? One hundred taels, how about selling you?"
A group of scholars gathered together at this moment to finish the game, and at this time, a scholar surnamed Qian came out: "Oh, Master Chu, what you said is true?"
"It's true. "Chu Tiandao.
"Okay, I'll buy one hundred taels. ”
Qian Gongzi paid one hundred taels happily, and then happily took Luo Xia's hand: "You will follow me in the future, you can rest assured, I will not beat and scold you at will like Chu Gongzi, your literary talent makes me admire, and you can teach my nephew and child to read and write in the future." ”
"The slave has seen Mr. Qian. Luo Xia touched her tears and looked at Chu Tian,
The person who has been with him for so many years sold himself in the blink of an eye, how can he not be sad and sad.
"Blessings and misfortunes depend on them, misfortunes and blessings lie in wait, Miss Luoxia, it is better for you to follow this Qian Gongzi than to follow this Chutian, at least you have no worries about food and clothing, and you can die well. Li Xiuyuan sighed at this moment, and he didn't know when there was a quaint book in his hand.
Luo Xia didn't speak, but her expression was very haggard.
But there are some things he can't control, and some things he can't allow to continue to happen.
Thinking about it, his eyes moved slightly, but he found that there was not much left of this Chu Tian's last merit, and he should die after spending the one hundred taels of silver.
You must know that the Chu family has a lot of money left, if this Chu Tian is saved, he can have no worries about food and clothing in this life, but it is a pity that he squandered it at will, scattered the money, and enjoyed the last blessings, so his life came early.
A person's fortune and longevity are fixed, and so is money.
It is clearly recorded in the book of life and death.
For example, if a person needs 10,000 taels of silver to die, then he will not die until he spends it.
At the beginning, Chu Shilang saved Chutian for the sake of the Chu family, but unfortunately the cause and effect he committed was too heavy, and Chutian's Fu Lushou had been exhausted, and he died when the rest of his wealth was exhausted.
sold Luoxia and got a hundred taels of silver, which was his last money.
However, Li Xiuyuan didn't want Chu Tian to continue to squander this one hundred taels, so he spoke: "Chu Tian, how about you and I fight in one game?"
"Oh, what do you want to fight with me?"
"It's up to you to decide what to fight, but the bet is one hundred taels of silver, how?" Li Xiuyuan said.
"Hey, I really thought that my son was afraid that you wouldn't succeed, so I would fight, but if you lost, my son didn't want you a hundred taels of silver, I wanted you to kneel on the ground and learn to bark. Chu Tian sneered as if he was drunk.
Li Xiuyuan said: "Whatever you want." ”
"You want me to learn how to bark, but I want you to die early. He thought to himself.
"Okay, then a fight, it's simpler, can you make a drinking order?" Chu Tian said.
"Not really. ”
Chu Tian said: "Then the wine order will be carried out, I will come first, the word Tian is impermeable, the cross is in the middle; ”
"The word is impermeable, the word is in the middle, and the word is pushed up, and the word Lu wins a minute," Li Xiuyuan said slowly.
"Brother Li, come on, don't lose, this loss is not just as simple as drinking, but learning to bark as a dog." Wang Ping said aside.
Zhu Yu said, "Close the crow's mouth, and watch what Chu Tian is doing." ”
Chu Tian burped and said: "The words are impermeable, and the words are in the middle;
"Okay, Young Master Chu is quick-witted, even more so when he is drunk. There was a scholar next to him stroking his palm.
Li Xiuyuan frowned and immediately thought about it.
Ning Caichen next to him wanted to stop talking, as if he wanted to remind one or two.
But Li Xiuyuan didn't think about it for long, and immediately said: "The sleepy word is impermeable, the wooden word is in the middle; ”
"The word is impermeable, and the word is ..... in it" Chu Tian thought for a while, and when he was about to take it, his head suddenly got stuck, and he made a mistake, and he couldn't match it for a while.
"I won, I conceded. Li Xiuyuan arched his hand.
Although Chu Tian was drunk, he was not seriously drunk, and he was angry and annoyed at the moment; "You deceived me into getting drunk, if I wasn't drunk, I wouldn't have made a mistake." ”
"You promised to fight with me, you and I did the drinking order, do you want to admit it if you lose?"
Li Xiuyuan's eyes moved slightly, and he said seriously.
He doesn't talk about fairness and justice now, this person is a scourge to stay, if he doesn't solve it today, he doesn't know how many things will come out, and even if he doesn't kill him today, he doesn't have many days to live, he just sent him on his way in advance.
"Willing to gamble and lose, it's just a rule, and it is also the integrity that a scholar should have, if Chu Gongzi is shy in his pocket, I will give you this hundred taels." Zhu Erdan suddenly walked over and said very politely, obviously he also knew and had a friendship with this Chutian.
Where did Chu Tian tolerate this, and immediately said, "No, it's not that I can't afford to lose a hundred taels of silver." ”
With that, he slapped a silver ticket on the table.
"Li Xiuyuan, you are lucky today, and this son will not let you look good next time. ”
Chu Tian said angrily, and then he also felt that it was faceless to stay here, and immediately strode away.
"There's no next time, this is the last time you and I will see each other. Li Xiuyuan looked at the silver ticket in front of him and said lightly.
