Chapter Twenty-Three: Sometimes You Should Accept Kindness from Others

The so-called good food is to go to the restaurant, and it happens that in front of the door is the restaurant of Li Yuanwai's house, and you will arrive when you go out. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info and the shopkeeper seems to be very familiar with Tang Xiaoxian, we just entered the door, the shopkeeper has not yet come, the shopkeeper smiled and ushered in: "Miss Tang is here! Please go up to the private room on the third floor!" "Good guy, such a high treatment, we still belong to the distinguished guests!" Cheng Erjiu muttered.

The shopkeeper took us up to the third floor and picked the largest private room. Good guys, this room won't be crowded even if ten people eat here, so the big table for the three of us to sit on is quite empty. Tang Xiaoxian said to the shopkeeper: "Don't read the recipe, three people, let's have ten dishes." Three cool and seven hot, by the way, get two light, and then two pots of good wine, you can look at it. The shopkeeper smiled and said, "Okay, wait a minute." With that, he withdrew, and closed the door.

Isn't that a lot of 10 dishes for 3 people? I feel like I'll be enough for a bowl of noodles. I asked, "Isn't it a bit too much?" and it's okay to eat and drink for nothing at Li Yuanwai's house, and now I'm eating in someone's restaurant, isn't it..." Tang Xiaoxian said, "Oh, my aunt and grandmother have brought money!" As he spoke, he took a money bag from his waist and put it on the table. I saw that the money bag was bulging, and there should be a lot of money, so I asked, "Where did you get so much money?" Tang Xiaoxian said: "Li Yuanwai gave it! I told Li Yuanwai that we killed some bully, but his helper injured you, so he found a hidden place for us to recuperate, and then said that we are for the people to eliminate harm, and I have to let me accept it, and I will accept it." ”

Seeing what she said so naturally, this makes me a little embarrassed, others are polite to you, how can you really accept it?" "How can you ask for money! Not to mention lying to others!" I was a little angry and thought that I couldn't take this money. Tang Xiaoxian turned her head: "I originally gave thousands of taels, but my aunt and grandmother felt that if you accepted it, you would definitely not be happy, so my aunt and grandmother took the broken silver." It's good that you don't understand the world at all. ”

"What don't I understand?" I retorted. Tang Xiaoxian said: "Do you think you should save people, you don't take a penny, and you show your heroic demeanor." But people don't think so! You are going to lose your life for the sake of others, and they give you some money to repay you, but you don't want it, don't you look down on others? People are businessmen, not people from the rivers and lakes. The only way he can think of repaying you is money, but you don't want money, have you ever thought about other people's feelings? Do you think Li Yuanwai will be happy? Besides, don't you don't want Li Yuanwai's money? Let's go here for dinner, and after eating, take the money to pay the bill, won't the money go back again? Isn't this equivalent to him inviting us to a meal? This also means that the fat water does not flow into the fields of outsiders!"

"This..." Tang Xiaoxian was once again speechless. "How do I feel about you?" I wanted to say something but couldn't, "I think... You are right. Tang Xiaoxian smiled: "When will my aunt miss it! I still didn't feel right, I asked Cheng Erjiu: "What do you think?" Cheng Erjiu was stunned for a moment, and said slowly: "That... I feel that what you both said makes sense." Grandma, you said that the eldest brother didn't consider Li Yuanwai's feelings, but on the other hand, Li Yuanwai didn't consider the feelings of the eldest brother, this, this, this, what, right?" "Hey, yes, Erjiu is right!" Although he didn't say it, I seemed to understand what he meant. Tang Xiaoxian slapped the table: "Drink! You have been bold in the past few days!"

At this time, Xiao Er knocked on the door and served the food. The cold dishes were served first, peanuts, edamame, cucumbers and the like, and two pots of wine. Tang Xiaoxian asked, "Xiao Er, what kind of wine is this?" Xiao Er replied with a smile: "If you go back to the girl, this is the best daughter of the store, Hong." Tang Xiaoxian asked again: "How many years are there?" Xiao Er replied: "It's been two or three years." "Why have it only been two or three years!" Tang Xiaoxian said dissatisfied. I saw that Xiao Er was a little embarrassed, so I quickly said, "It's okay, it's okay, you go down." Xiao Er nodded, smiled apologetically, and left.

I asked: "What's wrong with two or three years?" Tang Xiaoxian pouted: "Didn't you say that it is generally twenty or thirty years?" Cheng Erjiu was holding edamame: "Grandma, you are like making wine and playing? It would be good for ordinary people to live for twenty or thirty years old, where can they have so much time to make wine." Besides, in case of a grain harvest failure in any year, a ban on alcohol may be issued, and it would be good to be able to drink for two or three years. I smiled and said, "You won't hear about Mr. Storyteller again, right?" Tang Xiaoxian said with annoyance: "When I first came out of the house, I didn't take any money, and I didn't dare to drink good wine, so I finally got rich, and I came to a high-end hotel, I thought I would talk to Mr. Storyteller..."

"That's right, come on, let's go one. Tang Xiaoxian smiled, and as he spoke, he brought himself a cup, and then looked at me: "By the way, you are still injured and can't drink." "I haven't drunk much alcohol in the first place, and I don't want to dislike it, I'm thinking about how to refuse, she won't let me drink it at all, I'm very happy, but what kind of wine does she drink at a little girl's house?" Cheng Erjiu said embarrassedly: "Auntie, I haven't drunk alcohol, I'll replace wine with tea." "What's that?" Tang Xiaoxian was a little incredulous. Cheng Erjiu sighed: "I'm just a thief, where can I afford to drink." Sometimes I steal some money, and when I see a poorer person than me, I can't help but divide others, and I usually treat myself to drinking tea, so why don't I want to buy wine and drink. ”

I asked: "Actually, I've always wanted to ask, Erjiu, you are so good at your ability, you can even steal Brother Tang's things, why are you just a thief but not a big thief? With your ability, stealing anything is not a problem, right?" Tang Xiaoxian nodded: "Yes, yes, I also want to ask." Cheng Erjiu smiled bitterly: "The thief's business is not visible." You can be famous, famous, you are a famous swordsman, a heroine. Thieves are different, the famous thief, if it sounds good, it is a thief, and if it doesn't sound good, it is a Jiangyang thief, and in the end there is only one end, and he is chased to death by the world's headhunters. So I only dare to steal a few taels of silver from a rich man's house, and they don't care, and the officials don't bother to report it, so they are free so far. ”

Cheng Erjiu took a sip of tea, his eyes were foggy, as if he was recalling the past: "My master said that what a thief does is to make money, but he can only make money, not kill him, and if he kills, he will be a robber." So, ah, it's too white. A few months ago, it was in Jizhong, and there were several big cases in southern Hebei, which made me unhappy, so I came here. "I suddenly admired Cheng Erjiu, I have a lot of skills but can do it without being greedy, which is rare.

"The same is the end of the world, why should we have known each other. Tang Xiaoxian said: "Don't you want to taste it?" Cheng Erjiu looked at the wine glass in front of him, as if he had made a lot of determination: "Okay, taste it." After that, he took the flask and poured himself a glass. Tang Xiaoxian said to me, "You just drink tea." I nodded and poured a cup of tea. Tang Xiaoxian raised his glass and said, "Cheers to the same fallen people!" After speaking, she drank it all, what kind of person is she at the end of the world?
