Chapter 585: Niu Dali and Niu Er
Walking alone and sitting alone, the infinite world does not know me.
Only the old tree spirits in the south of the city clearly know the immortals.
"It's ...... O gods!"
In the county seat of Boluo County, an old pine tree in the south of the city that has lived for hundreds of years saw a sword rainbow in the sky, flying from the north and heading to the southwest, and it was clearly a fairy flying by! The old tree spirit was very emotional, in recent years, Lingnan has really inherited the blessing of God, and there are no fairy aunts, and there are Wong Tai Sin, who have done good deeds and responded to requests, so that the life of the people of Lingnan has been much better.
Now there is a sacred visit to Lingnan from somewhere, blessing, it is really a blessing!
However, even in the peaceful and prosperous era, there will still be beggars, and compared with the wealth of the Central Plains and Jiangnan, Lingnan is much worse.
Xie Lingyun and Xie Feng came to the vicinity of Nanhai City and landed on their feet.
They were all dressed in simple clothes, without any luxurious clothes, just patched and tattered linen clothes, a pair of worn shoes, messy hair, gray faces, and even their fingernails were covered with mud, and Xie Lingyun even changed into a rough man's appearance, ensuring that even the most shrewd catchers in the world would not be aware of their original identity.
Xie Feng thought it was very funny, Dad actually said it was not fun and deceitful before, what else would be funny?
He also felt that it was too different from the capital, the houses were low and low, the roads were still dirt roads, potholes, and the clothes of the pedestrians on the road made him feel fresh, and it was really not wrong to come to Lingnan.
The two of them finally passed the interrogation of the soldiers at the city gate and were able to enter Nanhai City, at this time it was close to dusk, and it was gradually getting night, and for Xie Feng, a fun thing was coming soon.
When they were hungry, they had to eat, but their father and son were penniless, so what should they do?
At this time, Xie Lingyun took Xie Feng to the door of an inn, he remembered that there was no inn in Lingnan in the first two years, it should be newly opened, so he didn't know what the character of the shopkeeper was, try your luck, this is the case in this world, there are evil people and good people. He wanted Feng Bao to understand this.
The business in the inn is very good, the lobby is almost full of tables of people, a big man with a knife just entered the inn with his front feet, and shouted: "Xiao Er, bring me two catties of beef, and then a pot of good daughter Hong!"
"Guest officer, you're joking, our daughter of the Bora Inn is red, which pot is not the best?" A little second brother ran up with a smile, led the big man to a table, and passed it to the kitchen.
"That, uh, that little second brother......" Xie Lingyun stepped into the door of the inn, rubbing his hands together, looking embarrassed.
The little second brother glanced over here and saw that the two of them were smiling, although they were smiling, they were stiff and their steps were slow, "Two guest officers, please come here." β
"Little second brother, we are from Leizhou, and we have all run out of entanglements on the road, I want to ask if you can give us a meal for our father and son? Xie Lingyun's face was sincere, and his tone was moving, definitely more like Niu Dali than Niu Dali.
Xie Feng also acted very hard, and pleaded: "Just cold rice juice." β
It turned out to be begging! The little second brother suddenly lost his face completely, frowned, and waved his hand in a hurry: "Go, go, begging will go farther, don't hinder our inn from doing business! No, no, go quickly." β
His attitude suddenly made Xie Feng feel uncomfortable, what, talking to his father like this, do you know that Xie Lingyun, the general of the Zhenguo University, but at this time, the father glanced at him, and also made Xie Feng soberly remember that now they are not Xie Lingyun and Xie Feng, but Niu Dali and Niu Er.
But his little head doesn't quite understand, is Niu Dali and Niu Er going to be treated with this kind of white eyes?
"Little second brother, just give me a bowl of leftovers, I can starve, but poor my son can't go hungry!" Xie Lingyun excitedly grabbed the arm of the little second brother, almost kneeling down for the other party and begging, his face was flushed, and he was about to cry: "My mother-in-law died early, and I have no one to hurt, this is the time to grow up, I can't starve......"
"Let it go!" the little second brother twitched his hand in disgust, his face irritated, "It's none of our business, you have to beg for food and go to those temples and Taoist temples to beg, don't stay here!
The movement at the door was louder, which also attracted the attention of the guests in the lobby, and some people immediately withdrew their gaze, commonplace and unconcerned; some people muttered and talked about it, and had different opinions on the younger brother's approach, some people wanted such a big inn, what about giving a bowl of rice to the children? There were also people like the little second brother, who wanted the two beggars to go quickly, so as not to disturb their interest in eating!
It's really a thousand people, and the innkeeper is still fiddling with the abacus, crackling, as if he didn't see the incident at the door, which doesn't show his attitude.
"Give me half a bowl, fill my stomach with half a bowl of leftovers, and I'll kneel down for you!" Xie Lingyun pulled the shopkeeper, his strength was just like that of an ordinary strong man, but the shopkeeper couldn't break free, he bent his knees slightly, and made a gesture to kneel-
"Dad!" Xie Feng shouted urgently, feeling that it was not so fun for the first time, what a hero Dad was!?
He remembered that in the teahouse, whenever the storyteller told a story about his father, before he began to tell it, the entire teahouse had already burst into applause, and the people were full of emotion, shouting "General Xie, General Xie!" He knew that everyone's reverence for Dad came from the bottom of his heart, and Dad was indeed so powerful, the most powerful general in the world!
But now, he actually wants to kneel down to this shopkeeper for half a bowl of leftovers?
"Dad, you don't ask him, I'd rather not eat it!" In a hurry, Xie Feng didn't care about the disguise, and was so angry that he smoked: "Isn't it just half a bowl of rice, the world is so big, it's not just here! We are manly husbands, we will never starve to death!"
"Good!" The little child was quite imposing, and there was a cheer in the lobby of the inn, and the big man with the knife on his back just now also looked over, his eyes shining-
was pulled away by Xie Feng, Xie Lingyun let go of the shopkeeper, stopped begging him, and smiled secretly in his heart: "Boy, do you want to starve? He sighed: "Okay, okay, since I have this heart, then let's go." β
"Hurry up, hurry up!" The little second brother slapped his right arm like a plague god, and the look of disgust was to say: Stained with some decay, unlucky!
"You ......!" Xie Feng was very angry, the temperament of the little overlord made it difficult for him to swallow this breath, why is this shopkeeper so arrogant? Even if they are just Niu Dali and Niu Er, can they be treated like this? When he was in the capital, he had never seen such a person!
"What?" Although the child was tall, the second brother was still much taller, and he looked at the child condescendingly with a disdainful gaze, and said with a smile: "Who said that you must give alms?
"You are not allowed to say that!" Xie Feng was angry and said loudly: "My father is a big hero!"
The crowd couldn't hear anything, and it was not strange for a child to have such thoughts in his heart. Looking at the rough man's embarrassed and guilty look, you can see that he is not worthy of the title of "big hero".
"Son, I can't afford to say that, let's go. Xie Lingyun sighed, pulled Feng Bao, who was about to fight, and walked towards the street outside the store.
Although Xie Feng was very angry, he still kept in mind his father's words, the soldiers must obey orders! While leaving, he turned his head and glared at the shopkeeper, the gentleman takes revenge, ten years is not too late!
Everyone in the lobby watched the poor father and son disappear into the night, some shook their heads and laughed, and some complained about the shopkeeper and Xiao Er, but they all continued to eat, and soon there was no more to do just now.
Only the big man with the knife on his back lifted the jar of daughter red that Xiao Er brought up, and he didn't eat the beef, got up and threw down the silver coin, and strode outside the store.
"Dad, aren't you angry?"
"What are you angry about?"
"That shopkeeper just now, why didn't you teach him a lesson?"
"How do you teach him a lesson? Hit him? That shopkeeper is just an ordinary person, philistine, snobbish, and without any benevolence...... But Daddy told you that there are thousands of people like Shopkeeper in the world. β
"So much!?"
Xie Feng's eyes widened, he couldn't believe it, how could he not have seen any of them before today? Even Chen Sui and those people didn't hate it so much.
"Nothing more, no less. Xie Lingyun couldn't help but sigh as he spoke, "It is difficult to pacify the world, and it is even more difficult to educate the people." Confucius said that the world of Datong is more difficult than climbing to the heavens. β
"Oh......" Xie Feng still didn't understand so much, he just felt too surprised, and asked again: "Is there one in the capital?"
"There are also in the capital, everywhere. β
"But why haven't I seen ......?"
"Because your eyes are blinded, my father brought you to Lingnan, just hoping that you can open your eyes and see the true face of this world. β
After hearing his father's words, Xie Feng was a little depressed, as smart as he was, he already vaguely understood something, when he was Xie Feng and Xie's little son, he couldn't see the scene when he was Niu Er, but these are all in the world! Dad said that people like shopkeepers are all over the world...... He felt angry, frustrated, and sad.
How can this be? Should we despise them, or should we pity them?
"Let's continue begging!" Xie Lingyun smiled and pressed Feng Bao's head, "When you grow up, you will slowly understand." β
After growing up again! Xie Feng flattened his mouth.
"This time it's your turn to say, it's up to you whether we'll be hungry tonight or not. β
This time, the object of the two begging was not a restaurant, but a big Zhumen household, of course, compared to Xie Mansion is nothing, but in Nanhai City, it is very gorgeous, I don't know who it is, at this time the mansion is brightly lit, and the fragrance of wine and meat wafts out. The approach of the two uninvited guests caused a burst of "Wangwang" dog barking -
When knocking on the side door of the mansion, the wooden door opened, and behind the door was a middle-aged servant who looked like a janitor, Xie Feng looked up at him and asked, "Sir, my father and I are from Leizhou, and we have no money to eat, can you give you some leftovers from cold rice?"
Not far behind him, Xie Lingyun touched the back of his head in embarrassment.
"Where's the little beggar, get out!" the gatekeeper put down a curse with a cold donkey face, and was about to close the door, too lazy to talk to them.
"Wait!" Xie Feng's heart rushed with anger again, "It's just a bowl of leftover rice!"
"I'm not sorry, then let the dog bite you!" The janitor didn't have a good temper, he was just asleep and had a good dream, and he was about to get involved with that Xiaohong in Lichun Courtyard, oh, that fat ass! He was disturbed by this dead little beggar, and the old beggar! He raised his sparse mouse hair and said angrily: "Two wastes, starve to death early, what kind of food, eat shit!"
Xie Feng was furious, he had never heard such foul language, and if he scolded him and his father, he was going crazy, and he was about to smash it with his fist, "You just eat!"
"The little brute is still going to beat people?" the janitor flew away angrily and kicked the little beggar in the stomachβ
"Ahh
"Bother me again, break your dog's legs!" the janitor scolded again, then slammed the wooden door shut, and walked away scolding.
Feng Bao! Xie Lingyun watched his baby son being kicked, it was really heartbreaking, with his cultivation, of course, he could completely prevent this kick from happening, just a roar, so that the janitor's soul would not possess the body. But he didn't do that, although for a moment, he almost flew over to take Feng Bao away, but he still didn't ......
This kid doesn't suffer a little now, and he will eat it later.
"Hmm...... Hmm...... "Xie Feng was so painful that he was about to roll, his stomach was twisted into a ball, his head was covered with cold sweat, and there were tears hidden in his eyes, it was really not fun! These people are so hateful...... Why do you want to do this......
Xie Lingyun walked over, hardened his heart, and asked, "Do you want Daddy to help you up?"
"No, no...... I'll stand up on my own!"
