Chapter 151: Ziya Encounters the Deceased on the Way
On this day, a group of people ran to Hulala on the avenue outside the south gate of Chaoge, all wearing official uniforms, but they were all officers guarding the city gate.
But I heard these people running and shouting: "Don't leave that old man who broke the law and broke the ban!"
A group of people roared by, and when they were far away, an old man with a crane and a childish face slowly walked out of the grove on the side of the road, but it was not Jiang Ziya, who had a relationship with Li Jing at the foot of East Kunlun Mountain?
Jiang Ziya shook off the dead grass and leaves that had been stained on his body when he was hiding in the forest, and stood on the avenue and looked back and forth for a while, with a wry smile on his face.
He originally devoted himself to learning the Tao in the Yuxu Palace, although his achievements were extremely limited due to his shallow qualifications, and his forty years of penance were only wandering in the circle of the realm of building the foundation, but he was also self-satisfied, and he never had any thoughts of red dust.
Because he had no relatives after going down the mountain, he only got Songjiazhuang thirty-five miles outside the south gate of Chaoge, and took refuge in Song Yiren, the sworn brother of the year. To say that Song Yiren is a benevolent person, not only did he not hesitate to take him in and add him, but he was more enthusiastic about his family, and he found a sixty-seven-year-old Huanghua daughter Ma Shi who was the same age for his seventy-two-year-old dying, and matched the two to get married.
His wife, Ma, is also a virtuous woman, thinking that it is not a long-term solution for the husband and wife to live in the brother-in-law's house, and wants him to make some livelihoods as the foundation of his life.
He was impressed by his wife's words. began to plan for his career, and a series of bad luck began to bebefall him.
At the beginning, he showed off his old craftsmanship, made up some fences and picked them to sell to Chaoge. Then the righteous brother Song Yiren took some wheat and ground him into flour to sell, but was kicked over by a startled horse, and a gust of wind blew the flour away, and he ended up empty-handed; and then Song Yiren allocated a restaurant to him to operate, but it caught up with the hot weather and few customers. The wine and sour meat are clean, and to this day, he borrowed fifty taels of silver from Song Yiren. I bought some pigs and sheep to sell to the court, how do I know that today because of the long drought and no rain, the court banned slaughter in order to pray for rain, and just arrived at the city gate, he was stopped by the messenger to arrest him and see the official justice. If he hadn't seen the opportunity quickly, abandoned the pigs and sheep and fled, a lawsuit would have been inevitable.
Thinking of all the encounters after going down the mountain, Jiang Ziya couldn't help but sigh and said: "Ziya, Ziya, why are you so lucky!"
"Hahaha......"
Jiang Ziya had just said a word, when he suddenly heard a burst of laughter behind him.
He was taken aback, and when he hurriedly turned to look, he saw a handsome young man who looked only twenty years old came out of the woods. He is also considered to have some cultivation, so he hid in the forest. I didn't realize that there was another person nearby.
The young man took a few steps forward, looked at Jiang Ziya with a look of surprise and uncertainty, and bowed his hand. smiled: "Brother Jiang Dao, don't you know the little brother Li Jing?"
"Ah, it turned out to be Brother Li Xian!" Jiang Ziya remembered the young man who had a good conversation with him at the foot of East Kunlun Mountain, and hurriedly took a step forward and asked, "Why did Brother Xian appear here?"
Li Jing looked around. Smiled: "Let's talk about it in detail in another place." ”
Jiang Ziya immediately woke up to the fact that although he had not been in the WTO for a long time. The nerd spirit has not been washed away, but he is by no means a dull person, on the contrary, his mind is far more clever than ordinary people. He has heard that now Li Jingjue is the protector of the country and guards Chentang Pass, and it seems that he has never been called to Beijing to serve Jane, and if it is known that he has left the fief privately, the size is a trouble. So he smiled and said: "The foolish brother is now living in the mansion of a righteous brother Song Yiren not far from here, if the virtuous brother does not dislike it, we can go there to talk deeply." ”
Li Jing nodded and said, "That's very good." ”
Jiang Ziya immediately led Li Jing to Songjiazhuang, but in order to avoid the errand who was arresting him on the avenue, he turned to a small path.
After a short time, when he came to Songjiazhuang, the family at the door saw Jiang Ziya coming back from a distance, and he had already rushed in to report the news.
When Jiang Ziya and Li Jing came to the door, Jiang Ziya's wife Ma had already greeted them.
Seeing Jiang Ziya returning empty-handed, he took it for granted that Xianggong had a good business and had sold out the pigs and sheep, but Li Jing beside Jiang Ziya was regarded by her wishful thinking as a guest who came to the door to order because she did not buy pigs and sheep. So he stepped forward with a smile on his face and asked expectantly, "Xianggong, can today's transaction be smooth?"
Jiang Ziya's face froze, he only cared about being happy when he saw Li Jing, but he forgot about his bad luck, and only after his wife asked did he think about it again. Seeing his wife's expectation, he was very embarrassed, so he had to cough dryly and said: "Good wife, if you meet an old friend outside for your husband, you have to introduce it to Brother Song first, and we will talk about this later." ”
Ma Shi observed the words and guessed that most of Jiang Ziya's "entrepreneurship" this time failed, and his heart was half cold, and he wanted to do it on the spot, but he heard that the young man was a good friend, and after all, he suppressed his dissatisfaction in front of the guests.
Li Jing peeked at Jiang Ziya, a sixty-eight-year-old newlywed lady, and saw that her face was a little bad, so she hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "It turns out that this is Mrs. Sister-in-law, and the younger brother is so polite." The younger brother came in a hurry on this trip, and he didn't prepare any gifts, only these little things that he carried with him, not as a tribute, and asked his sister-in-law to accept it with a smile. ”
As he spoke, he took out a small bag from his arms and presented it to Ma with both hands.
Ma Shi saw that the bag was shriveled and fluttering, so he didn't take it to heart, took it casually, and while loosening the string at the mouth of the bag and looking inside, he smiled and said: "Uncle why is he so polite, this ......"
He stopped abruptly halfway through his sentence, staring at the contents of the bag with staring blankly. It turned out that inside this bag were three flawless pearls the size of a dragon's eye, and although the Ma family was from a large family, he had never seen such a treasure worth ten thousand gold.
Jiang Ziya saw that his wife was out of shape, her old face was slightly hot, and she hurriedly pushed her lightly beside her.
Ma Shi woke up like a dream, quickly put the bag into his sleeve, and returned a salute to Li Jing with a smile on his face, saying: "Uncle is so generous, how can we be worthy of it as husband and wife?" Ah, the minister said that he would introduce you to Brother Song, please go inside!"
The three of them entered the Song Mansion together, and Song Yiren was waiting in the hall at this time. He saw that Jiang Ziya and his wife walked in with a smile on their faces this time, and thought that the righteous brother had done a good job this time, and was about to ask, when he suddenly saw Li Jing who followed the two of them into the door, with a look of disbelief on his face, and opened his mouth to exclaim: "Li ......"
