Chapter 25: Tong Rentang visits the princess

Erhu also hugged his fist at the man, stared at a pair of big eyes, looked at him very friendly, and said, "Down is Tong Rentang, the shopkeeper of Dafa Pharmacy in the provincial capital. ”

"Oh, it's Tong Gongzi, fortunately, fortunately ......," the goatee said again.

Everyone else also stood up and hugged their fists at Erhu and said, "I've seen Tong Gongzi." ”

"I've seen Tong Gongzi. ”

"I've seen Tong Gongzi. ”

......

Erhu hurriedly stood up, made a humble appearance, and saluted them one by one very politely, and then said: "It's not a tribute to the small dishes, come, boss, please put all the dishes we didn't come up on that table!"

The proprietress agreed, and sure enough, she put one good dish after another on the table over there.

Erhu smiled and said, "Please sit down and eat, brothers, and drink slowly......"

Those people ate and drank happily, and while eating and drinking, they couldn't stop praising the "eldest son of Tong" for his righteousness and squandering money.

After Erhu finished eating and drinking, he stood up, came to the table, smiled and hugged his fists, and asked, "Slow use, little brother has retired first." ”

The men stood up suddenly, and the goatee said, "Thank you for your generosity and help." As he spoke, he clenched his fist at Erhu again.

Erhu asked, "Excuse me, who are the brothers?"

When the second tiger asked, none of them were silent, and they were all looking at the goatee with their eyes.

Goatee smiled unnaturally and said, "We are villagers from Mongolian Tun in the west, and we have come here to do some idle business." ”

"Oh. Hehe......" Erhu smiled and said, "That's good, that's good, you use it slowly." The younger brother has taken a step ahead of time. With that, Erhu walked towards the guest room.

He took a few steps, and when he saw that there was no one around, he turned around and asked the little bead to return to the tavern to keep an eye on the men.

Erhu went back to the guest room to rest. Two hours later, the beads returned.

Erhu hurriedly asked, "Where did those people go?"

After eating, they went to a large courtyard north of the village, and they didn't come out for half a day. ”

"You didn't ask what that house does?"

"Asked. Said that there was no man in that house, what was the name of the hostess...... By the way, it's called Wang Lianhua. ”

"Wang Lianhua?" Erhu's heart was for a while, he had long heard that there was a Mongolian woman named Wang Lianhua who was a very famous courtesan. It is also the commander of the Zhao battalion of the garrison of Lucao County, this woman is black and white, and she has a relationship with many bandits, gangs and even officials and soldiers. Then, it is possible for this Ma Lianhua to know the inside story of the robbery of Yangcao......

Erhu thought for a while. He slapped his thigh and said, "Yes." Let's go find her!"

"Battalion commander, you are ......"

"Let's go, let's go and meet that now!"

"Battalion commander, I can't go, I heard that the woman is ruthless, and there are many outlaws under her command, will there be any danger if we go?"

"Hehe, don't be afraid, don't be afraid. Erhu smiled mysteriously. said, "Let's go with gifts." ”

So saying, the two of them went out into the street and bought four boxes of fine pastries. came to Wang Lianhua's house. Before they could enter the yard, the two big yellow dogs at the door barked.

After a while, an old woman opened the door and walked out and asked, "Who are you looking for?"

Zheng Erhu stepped forward and said, "We have come from afar to meet your hostess." ”

"Oh......" The old woman saw two strangers dressed in extraordinary clothes, and carried a few gift boxes in her hands, and went back to the house to report.

After a while, the old mother came out again and stopped the dog, and led Erhu and Xiaozhuzi into the house. The yard is quite large, divided into two rooms before and after, as well as the east and west wings, the east wing is the kitchen, the west wing is the warehouse, it is a typical northeast courtyard.

Erhu and Xiaozhuzi entered the house and saw a woman wearing a Han cheongsam, half-lying on a chair, holding a large cigarette pouch more than two feet long in her mouth, smeared with powder on her face, and lipstick on her lips.

Erhu thought that this woman must be the legendary Wang Lianhua.

When Wang Lianhua saw the second tiger, she was suddenly startled, and quickly sat up straight and looked him up and down. It was the first time she had seen such a handsome, tall and mighty, dignified young man with a wise aura between her eyebrows, the princess-like arrogance in her heart was immediately reduced by a few points, and seeing the entourage holding four boxes of gifts in her hands, she stood up with a smile, and said while giving this to Erhu: "Oh...... Your guests are here, please take a seat. Mom Zhang, cut watermelon for the guests!"

Erhu clenched his fists and said, "You are Princess Wang Lianhua, excuse me!" Then, he sat on another chair and found that the room was full of smoke, and it was clear that someone had gathered here just now, and with the peripheral vision of his eyes, he saw a back door leading to the back room......

Wang Lianhua saw that the second tiger was not very old, but his bearing was extraordinary, so he asked: "Who are you sacred, I don't know what you have to do when you come to our house?" However, she seemed to have some doubts about the visit of the two uninvited guests.

Erhu introduced himself: "I was introduced by Battalion Commander Zhao of the Lucao County Garrison, and the young shopkeeper of Dafa Pharmacy in the provincial capital - Tong Rentang ......."

"Oh, the provincial city introduced by Camp Commander Zhao is wide and small! Disrespectful and disrespectful!" Wang Lianhua lit up in her eyes when she heard this, and said: "How is Camp Commander Zhao in Lucao County? It must be that there are many soldiers and generals, and he is at ease, right?"

After Erhu joined the Cuipingshan Righteous Army, he did research and investigation on the current situation of bandits in the Lucao area, the Lucao County Government and the local garrison, and even the situation of the imperial court's garrison in the northeast, as well as the relationship between the characters and scandals, so he naturally knew the relationship between Wang Lianhua and Battalion Commander Zhao, so he said: "Battalion Commander Zhao asked me to say hello, he has been busy with military affairs recently, and it is difficult to get out, he once told me that he likes to come here very much......

"Hmph!" Wang Lianhua pouted and said, "What kind of military affairs are busy, aren't you entangled by his aunts and wives who can't get out?" Ah, hahaha......" She laughed insolently for a while, and then asked, "But, what did you do as a businessman when you came to our Taiping Village?"

Erhu said unabashedly: "I was entrusted by a friend to come to buy foreign grass." ”

"Buy foreign grass?" Wang Lianhua seemed to be very sensitive to the word "foreign grass", and she said in surprise: "Aren't you willing to go far and near, and besides, you just spend money on the meadow to buy it, why are you here with me?" (to be continued......)
