Chapter 17 Yangzhou Shuanglong
Huang Yi paid for the forging and sat down at a small stall. The South Gate Market faces the Yangtze River and is relatively prosperous. There are dozens of stalls that provide all kinds of meals, and they vary in size. It is an ideal place for passengers who are preparing to go to Dajiang for a boat trip to eat and stock up on dry food.
Among the food stalls in the South Gate Market, Lao Feng's vegetable and meat buns are the most famous. In addition, the old Feng concubine 'Zhen Sister-in-law', who specializes in selling steamed buns, was born with a beautiful appearance and became a living signboard for soliciting business.
Huang Yi took six steamed buns and a bowl of tea, and ate them on the small table. His eyes were wandering around boringly.
I saw a young man get in front of the people in line, and said with a smile: "Hello sister-in-law, eight vegetable and meat buns." But for some reason, this good young man was quite tall, but he was hunched over, as if he was afraid of being seen. The form made Huang Yi laugh for a while.
As if hearing this laughter, the young man turned his head to look at Huang Yi. His eyes were angry, but he was submissive. Turned around and continued to curry favor with her sister-in-law.
Huang Yi saw that this young man had a high nose, a wide forehead, and long and agile eyes. If it weren't for the oily face and ragged clothes. The face seems to have been beaten and his lips are swollen, and he must look good. It's just now!
When Sister-in-law Zhen saw him, she first glanced back at Lao Feng, who was busy in the kitchen, and another woman. As if they couldn't see the situation here, they picked up the four buns in the fastest way. After hesitating for a moment, he took two more. Then he shoved it into the young man's hand and scolded in a low voice: "This is the last trip, alas! ”
Huang Yi didn't know why, when he saw such a virgin sister-in-law, he saw the aura of maternal love on her, and she was very impressed.
It's just that Huang Yi just lowered his head and took a bite of the bun, when he heard a woman's vicious voice coming: "You little slut, no wonder you've been so busy lately, but the bun is gone, and the money is gone." It turns out that you actually raised a little white face outside. ”
Huang Yi was curious and raised his head to look. I saw a woman holding the clothes on her sister-in-law's chest in one hand, and holding a rolling pin in the other hand to beat and curse her.
"Stop, stop fighting. "It turned out that it was a teenager who went and returned before. I saw that he was accompanied by another boy who was just like him. Squeezed into the crowd and shouted.
When Sister-in-law Zhen heard the voice, she hurriedly turned around and said, "It's none of your business, let's go, let's go." ”
But the wicked woman refused to give up: "It's you two little white faces again." Why? I don't have the money to steal buns, do I?"
"Stop, the bun from before. It's on credit to us, and we will pay you back tomorrow. The boy said before.
The villagers on the side didn't seem to be able to stand it, and one of them said: "Isn't it just a few buns, this evil woman is too ruthless." ”
"Yes, yes!" the others agreed.
"That's it, it's just a few buns! We'll definitely pay it back. But well, after we pay back the money, you can't embarrass your sister-in-law. The boy said again.
"Okay, then you can take the money. Otherwise, get out of the way. "That woman, probably heard others call her a wicked woman. He hit the sister-in-law on the arm with a stick, and then said to the villagers: "What does it have to do with you if you want to beat the old lady's own business? If you are generous, come and help these two little beggars pay the money." ”
"Help him pay, help him pay, isn't it just a few buns, how much can you have. When one of them saw this, he stretched out his hand and took out a few copper coins.
The woman looked at the copper coin in his hand and smiled disdainfully: "Even if you have such a little money, you dare to shout in front of the old lady." ”
The woman's subordinates were not slow, grabbed the copper coin and said, "These few pennies are enough to pay for today's buns." What about yesterday, the day before yesterday, or even earlier? Who knows how many buns they ate me. Either you come up with a tael of silver today, or the matter will not be over. ”
When everyone heard that they wanted a tael of silver, they were secretly angry in their hearts, but there was nothing they could do. One tael of silver can buy five hundred vegetable and meat buns. If you eat three meals a day, based on ten buns, it is enough for an ordinary person to eat for more than a month. Nearly two months of food. And among the common people, who can eat three meals a day, and eat vegetable and meat buns at a time?
What's more, two teenagers can only mix four or five buns a day to eat here at most, and one or two silver is really too much. But when the woman insisted on saying so, no one else could do it. You can't let the two teenagers spit out the buns they ate and count them one by one, right? One or two pieces of silver, no one is willing to take it out.
Two teenagers, their eyes shuttling through the crowd. Hope someone can help them. However, everyone who was swept by their eyes bowed their heads.
Huang Yi sighed secretly in his heart. Thinking of the previous scene when I borrowed ten taels of silver, just like at this time, I felt a feeling. In addition, Guan Hui has a good impression of the motherhood of his sister-in-law. He stood up and said, "It's just a tael of silver, I'll pay it first." ”
The two teenagers were overjoyed in their hearts, and thanked Huang Yiyi: "Thank you for this hero." We Yangzhou Shuanglong swore that if we make money in the future, we will pay you back. ”
Huang Yi looked at the two sixteen or seventeen-year-old boys, shook his head secretly and said, "Help you once, but no one can help you for a lifetime." If you continue like this, I am afraid that it will be difficult to survive, and there will be no reward. ”
He took out a tael of silver and threw it away, and the woman took it. didn't ask Huang Yi for the six buns anymore, and said "hum!" to his sister-in-law and the two teenagers. Then he entered the inner hall with a smile.
One of the young men saw the posture of the wicked woman. There was a low curse. Another teenager is more benevolent. Pushed it to: "Okay, Zhong Shao." Don't scold, if you are listened to by that wicked woman, you don't know how to embarrass your sister-in-law in the future. ”
After the wicked woman left, Huang Yi smiled and nodded at her sister-in-law. Then he turned and walked away. Behind him, I vaguely heard two young men asking with concern: "Sister-in-law, are you okay?" ”
The sword had already been forged, and he was told that he would not be able to pick it up until the afternoon of the next day. Huang Yi was bored and walked around. I feel that there are too many things in my chest, which is very uncomfortable. I thought it would be better to go back to the martial arts hall.
