Chapter 11: The Limits of the Beggar
Mo Wen laughed wildly in his heart, if that old man knew that I called him an old eunuch, would he be so angry that he jumped out of the coffin. Immediately, a faint sadness rose in Mo Wen's heart, I hope you can be happy in the netherworld, although you are lazy to eat, although you are sloppy, although you laugh and scold me, but after all, you taught me a lot of things, and saved my life!
Shen Hanxue's face couldn't help but feel a chill, is this praising others for their wisdom and talent, or is she narcissistic to the point of being hopeless!
Tang Xiyun next to him chuckled, nodded, and continued to ask: "Then do you know how to cook home-cooked food?" We are not a big hotel here, and no one can afford to eat a full banquet!"
Mo Wen was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said: "Yes, as long as there are materials, I can do anything, even if it is a stone, I can cook soup and drink!"
It's not that Mo Wen is talking nonsense, he really boiled stones in his previous life, it's just that he didn't drink it, but he gave it to Wei Qingyun to drink, this is a method used to delay the exhaustion of the old man's physical functions, but in addition to the stones, some medicine is added!
"Bragging doesn't make drafts, you!" Shen Hanxue didn't miss the opportunity to hit Mo Wen, couldn't help but sneer, and said, "If you can really get right, your fried noodles? Didn't you say you want to eat them all?"
Mo Wen glanced at Shen Hanxue disdainfully, and said, "Isn't it bragging, I'm too lazy to explain to you, aren't you looking for fried noodles?"
Shen Hanxue glanced at the bowl of fried noodles in the corner, because it didn't have the original appearance, so she didn't see it for a while, after all, Mo Wen made too many dishes this time, and the few people who watched it were dazzled, who remembered what happened just now.
Shen Hanxue pouted and said, "Don't use the agitation method, this is useless to me!"
Tang Wan glanced at the nearby fried noodles, remembered the fragrance she smelled in the kitchen just now, and couldn't help but pick up a chopstick, put it in her mouth, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she said in surprise: "Really, Sister Xue, you taste it, not only is it not so spicy, even the saltiness is just right, and it is even more delicious than the authentic fried noodles!"
Shen Hanxue pinched one in disbelief, opened her red mouth slightly, put it in her mouth, and then looked at Mo in surprise and said, "How did you do it?"
Mo Wen looked at Shen Hanxue and said very seriously: "Secret!"
"Cut!" Although Shen Hanxue was curious, she couldn't weaken her momentum, put down her chopsticks and said, "What's the big deal, no matter how good it is, that is, a cook, I don't think my family is much better than a beggar!"
Tang Xiyun also took one, nodded slightly, and said: "Although I don't know how you did it, it's really delicious, and the light spicy taste is just right, it's really good!"
"So, I can stay?" Mo Wen asked excitedly, rubbing his little hands excitedly!
"No!" Shen Hanxue said, "I still have something to ask you!"
"Eldest sister, is this your restaurant? Are you the shopkeeper?"
Tang Xiyun glanced at Shen Hanxue, who was speechless, and said to Mo Wen: "Although Officer Shen is not from our restaurant, she usually takes good care of us and helps Wan'er a lot, except for these, just saying that she is a policeman, I have to consider her words!"
"Eh" Mo Wen was like eating a fly, he glanced at Shen Hanxue's expression, Mo Wen gave full play to the spirit of Ah Q written by Mr. Lu Xun, although he didn't know Lu Xun, let alone Ah Q, Mo Wen comforted himself for a while, looked at Shen Hanxue's expression of recognition, and said: "You ask!"
Shen Hanxue was dressed and said, "Age?"
"Huh?" Mo was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head and snapped his fingers, and calculated: "I want to think about it, 17, 18, 19, 21, 20"
A black line slipped off Shen Hanxue's face, and she said angrily, "How much?"
"I don't know what to do!"
"Okay, it's understandable that I don't know the age of Lu Dao, so how much do you know about men and women?"
Mo Wen said suspiciously: "Eldest sister, what does this have to do with whether or not to keep me?"
Tang Wan and Tang Xiyun were also puzzled for a while, and then Tang Xiyun understood, and couldn't help sighing, a woman's bitterness is not something ordinary people can understand, especially a middle-aged woman, seeing the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes increase, and the gray hair on her temples is increasing, an indescribable helplessness and bitterness!
Shen Hanxue took a sip of water and said: "You only have the right to choose to answer and not to answer, everything you say will be presented as a court, if you don't say it, leave immediately!"
Mo Wen's face twitched, he stood up with his hands behind his back, looking like a fairy wind bone, he wanted to look up at the starry sky, or stand on the top of a small hill, showing his own majestic posture, but when he looked up, he saw the dazzling lights on the ceiling, and he couldn't help but bow his head stupidly!
"Taoism has clouds, male protagonist yang, female protagonist yin, men and women are combined, then it becomes gossip, just as Qiankun secretly combines heaven and earth, the sky has the sun and the moon for gossip, the earth has yin and yang for gossip, dogs have male and female for gossip, people have men and women for gossip, everything in the world is yin and yang, not male and female for yin and yang!"
"What's the mess?" Shen Hanxue frowned, couldn't help spitting, and said, "You are not only a beggar, but also a fight with the blind fortune tellers in the streets and alleys!"
Mo Wen turned his head in surprise and asked, "What, someone else said something similar?
Shen Hanxue pursed her lips and said: "In the past, there was a blind fortune teller at the corner of the street, saying that he could measure the past and predict the future. Do you know what happened to the old blind man?"
Mo Wen hurriedly asked, "How is it?"
"Starving!"
"People, this is a thing against the sky, everything is in their own hands, how can they change their lives and transfer it!" Mo Wen sighed leisurely, and couldn't help but feel disappointed in his heart, he originally thought that he had met a fellow person, but he didn't expect to be a liar!
Shen Hanxue pursed her lips and said, "You are lucky, you met Officer Ben and Aunt Tang, otherwise you would have starved to death!"
Mo Wen sighed and said, "The grace of life is only the old woman's ear!"
"What ear?" Shen Hanxue said with a frown!
Mo asked a smile and said, "It's nothing, you keep asking!"
Shen Hanxue saw Mo Wenyi's appearance, and did not dampen his interest anymore, turned her head to look at Tang Xiyun and said, "Auntie, what are you going to do? If you let him stay, where do you let him live? live outside, or will I stay with you in the store? If I live in the store, I am still a little worried, and it is inconvenient to say it?"
Mo Wen frowned, feeling this eldest sister, she went around for a long time, just for this, and implicitly asked herself how much she knew about men and women, this is not obviously afraid that she would be strong and strong, and do something more than a beast.
Mo Wen couldn't help but ignite a burst of anger from the bottom of his heart, Lao Tzu is a cultivator, an immortal who is determined, here for a bite of food, it is already low, this woman still doubts her character, although she is a little informal, greedy for the speed of her tongue, but at least there is a limit to being a person!
"No need!" Mo Wen looked at Shen Hanxue indifferently, without the feeling of men and women flirting just now, and said in a voice without the slightest emotion, "Xie Lu Xie Shen Officer Aunt Tang's kindness, he will definitely repay it one day, I don't think I need to stay here, farewell!"
Mo Wen still bowed his hand to the three of them according to the old man's teaching, then turned around and walked out, without a trace of hesitation, the old undershirt on his body was stained with a little greasy, although he was still like a beggar, but his waist was straight, at this moment, Mo Wen felt that this was the real himself, standing and dying, at least with a clear conscience and calm!
"Brother Mo," Tang Wan was stunned for a moment, and quickly got up and chased after him.
Shen Hanxue looked at the door in a daze and said, "What's wrong with him?"
Tang Xiyun sighed and said, "He is a proud man, you may accidentally violate his bottom limit!"
Shen Hanxue turned her head, looked at Tang Xiyun and said strangely, "Auntie, I didn't say anything?"
The corners of Tang Xiyun's eyes were moist, looking at the door, and said leisurely: "Wan'er's father was the same back then, because of my unintentional words, like Xiao Mo, he walked out of Lu like this, and never came back, and later I learned that a man is obedient to you in normal times, even if you beat and scold him, he will still love you, but if you touch his bottom limit, nothing can be recovered, he is gone, almost twenty years, and never came back."
Shen Hanxue was stunned there, thinking that he had just sneered at him like a prisoner, playing with all his scheming, he was still that cynical look, and because he had a little doubt about his character, he would rather go outside to be a beggar than stay here to have enough food and clothing, is this his limit?
Shen Hanxue suddenly felt a trace of sourness in her heart, not because of Mo Wen, but because she remembered that when she left home, she was so similar to Mo Wen, without a trace of nostalgia, as if she had escaped from the tomb-like palace and villa!
Shen Hanxue sighed and said, "I'm really sorry, Aunt Tang, I caused you so much trouble tonight!"
Tang Xiyun wiped away her tears and said with a smile: "What did Officer Shen say, you helped me and Wan'er so much, I can't thank you, where is the trouble!"
Shen Hanxue stood up, took out her wallet and said, "I should go back too, I still have a task tomorrow, I only have a few thousand yuan here, and the rest will be booked first, and I will send it to you tomorrow!"
Tang Xiyun hurriedly excused himself and said, "No need, Officer Shen, you will see the outside like this, quickly take back the money!"
Shen Hanxue forced the money to Tang Xiyun and said: "Aunt Tang, don't be polite to me, it's not easy for you to raise Wan'er's sister alone, and you have to provide for her to go to college, how can you break the bank again, besides, this time it's me who troubles Auntie!"
Tang Xiyun smiled and said: "Because we can't understand each other, there will be such and such misunderstandings, just solve it, it's just this money"
"Oops!" Shen Hanxue hurriedly pushed over and said, "I said let you take it, you don't have to excuse yourself, I'll be angry if I do this again, and I'll never come back again!"
Tang Xiyun smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll accept it first, and when you find a boyfriend to get married one day, I'll wrap you a red envelope and send it to you!"
Shen Hanxue frowned, as if she remembered something unpleasant, and then said with a smile: "Then I'll wait for Sister Wan'er to get married and then I'll give you back!"
"Huh"
