Heroes of the Sons and Daughters

Chapter 87
The last time it was written that An's family married He Yufeng, because the dowry from Deng Jiugong's gang was too generous today, and there were too many outsiders such as drummers, cooks and tea houses, as well as porters and bearers, and the situation in the capital was getting worse. The bigger the eyelid, the thinner the eyelid.Gold is yellow, silver is white, silk and satin are red and green, these people have black eyeballs, they see it for a while, and there is a lot of discussion.Adding some branches and leaves, it spread to the ears of a group of villains, expecting that Mr. An's family had a happy event, everyone must be tired, and without precaution, they came in groups and wanted to do something.

I don't want to be played around by this bride for a while, a few came and stayed, and no one escaped, this group of thieves really disappointed!It's so easy to meet a magnanimous owner, Mr. An, don't make things difficult for the villains, and when you let them go, this group of people will find out, feel ashamed, and suddenly don't know where to pull out such a Deng Jiugong Come.At first everyone thought that he was also the one who was the victim, but when they heard him say his name, they realized that he was the one who came out to fight the injustice, and he had nothing to do with this matter.I also saw his over-charging by bragging and bluffing, it seemed that he had some background, and he didn't dare to correct him.Now there is a mess of trouble, scolding is scolding for broken rice and dregs, and they are not dismissed from office or privately retired, but they are asked to fix the broken yard tiles piece by piece. This is clearly an idea of ​​rubbing work people!

The four thieves were in a hurry, so they looked at him in a mess and said, "Old man, you have to see through it. I just listened to your old explanation, and you are an old expert. You see, the thief fell into this situation." In the middle, it’s time to show your face and heart to the end! Don’t be afraid to share a few shares of the stolen goods, if you squeeze them, you can pour them out; how can you fix this smashed tile? Really, a thief Can you still play tricks? It’s not that the owner is kind enough. If you keep raising your legs, our little buddies will pass by, and we will also recite the benefits of your old age when you go out. Nothing else, I wish you a happy birthday Live to be eighty, okay?"

These thieves probably also saw that the old man is a man who likes to be flattered, but flattering people is also a difficult thing in the world, and this sentence alone offended him thoroughly!He didn't ask the length, he spat viciously at the group of people first, and said: "Your mother is not happy! Your Jiu Taiye is young this year, only 88! You told me to live to be eighty, wouldn't that mean I came back alive?" Then you curse me! You don’t need to cooperate with me first, because you will not be able to fix this tile. I will give you a clear way. This thing is sold in brick and tile shops. When the owner builds a house It was also bought with money. You just bought as many yuan as before and compensated them for the number of yuan you lost; Invite some of his masons, it will be easy to work when there are too many people, take advantage of the early weather, clean up, and spare time at night, so that you can go back to your normal business. When it comes to buying a few pieces of tiles, I don’t care. It's worth going to such a large group of people at a reasonable price, so that the two of you who are jumping around to buy tiles, and the two who were taken out of the combined furnace pit that rolled down from the house, will first pick out the broken tiles in the yard, and give the yard If people clean it up, it will save them from complaining."

When Huo Shidao heard this, he said in his heart: "Okay, the thieves have made the four of us look bad! If there is such a thing, it's better to be full and beat it, and let it be clean from a distance." !" What do you want to do, but dare not do what he wants, can only keep talking and begging for mercy.Without answering, he asked Mr. An for a pen, dipped it full, and smeared it on the four faces for a while.Only Huo Shidao knew a few words in it, and he was suffering because he couldn't see his own face, and he didn't know what he had scratched. Looking at the three faces, it turned out that there were two walnut-sized "stupid thieves" written on them. The words seem to hang a signboard that does not miss customers. When it comes to wiping it, both hands are cutting it upside down.

When he was in a hurry, seeing him put down his pen, he said to the old man who was about to send them to the official: "Mate Zhang, you can find two hard-earned people, and bring them to me, just like this to buy tiles." You can hold the rope that pulls his leg in your hand, so you are not afraid that he will run away, and you can't help him not to go. There is a troublemaker, let him eat my Wuqi fist before going!" The two thieves heard this. , I was so anxious that I called "Old Man" like running water, and said: "I would like to pay the tiles according to the number, just to avoid this embarrassment!" However, he didn't come to reason about this, but stared at his big eyes, shaking his head and gesticulating He confessed to the gang of thieves: "You have to understand what I said. The owner will let you go. It's no one's business. It's all my surname Deng's idea. If you don't accept it, let the matter go." , just go to Dengjiazhuang, 28 red willow trees at the fork in Chiping County, Shandong Province. My place is a Guangliang gate facing south. There is a black lacquered gold plaque on the gate. That's what I give up. I'm waiting under the leave."

Seeing him making trouble for a long time, Mr. An felt that "a gentleman should not take it too far", so there is no need to make such a fuss about this matter.It's just that he was in the middle of the field, and when he tried to persuade him head-on, the more he persuaded, the harder he got.Praise from the side: "Ninth brother, your method is really straightforward. It's just that the family members have been arguing in the middle of the night, let them have a rest and eat something, and it's not too late to deal with it." Yinhe Zhang Jinbao winked , commanded: "Take them outside and listen." Zhang Jinbao understood, and took all his family members, pulling a rope one by one, and took them out of the second gate like a pig. .

Here he just waved his hands and walked up the steps, and when he entered the room, he shouted: "I don't believe it! A thief in Beijing, with such a big name, he won't recognize Deng Jiugong!"

Mrs. Chu said: "That's it! That's enough! Let's sit in the courtyard so that people can clean up the house." Master and Mrs. An also said that they were tired, and let them go there.In the upper room over there, snacks have already been prepared, nothing more than vegetarian buns, fried cakes, fried fruits, sweet porridge, noodle tea, etc. All the female relatives ate some before going to freshen up.

Deng Jiugong sat down here with Mr. An, ordered another pot of water chestnut and jujube wine, and said, "I drank too much yesterday, so I must vote." "Brother, I asked you as soon as I got home yesterday, saying you were asleep. Why did you fall asleep so early?" Deng Jiugong said: "Brother, I can't tell you! I've been outside Nancheng for the past two days. My intestines were broken, and my lungs were full of gas! The more I thought about it, the more impatient I became, and the more I thought about it, the more confused I became, there was nothing I could do, I was bored for a while when I came back, and fell asleep." Master An said: "How do you say this? I just said that you must have enjoyed hearing the opera outside the city for the past few days. I was just about to ask my brother, and I want to listen to the show, so why do you say that?" He waved his hands again and again, Said: "Don't mention it again! My stomach is stuffy because of listening to the opera. I don't hide my words anymore. I usually see that you don't like to listen to the opera. You don't even want to go to the theater when you are free. I just say You are too dull, who would have dared to get really angry about this incident!"

Mr. An said: "I think it's because the opera is not well sung?" Deng Jiugong said: "It's not about that. Brother Yu only listens to the excitement when he listens to the opera. Maybe he knows a little bit about what happened when the opera came out. Yes, I don’t understand the tune at all. When it comes to Kunqu Opera, I don’t even understand the humming and chirping. If you want to talk about the ostentation, costumes, and tricks, they are all better than those in other provinces. It’s not good, it’s just stubbornness , It’s nothing to be angry about. I was pissed off by the men who listened to the opera together! This day is Dong’er, a monk who is not empty. He first invited me to a front door in a narrow alley in the east of Qianmen A small building went up to eat, and they said it was called "Qingyangju". A glass of wine, I can't sit still."

Mr. An said: "Why?" He said again: "There are two floors in the whole room, and there is a warm Dalian Second Stove underneath. Brother, you think, the people on the upper floor will have to spend a lot of time Son, is there someone who can’t become a scorched bun? I was so anxious that I took off my hat and jacket. Monk Bukong must have seen my distress. He said: “There are people in Lunanli It's an elegant seat, why don't we move over to the seat.' I heard that there is an elegant seat, which is great, so I hurriedly asked people to take off their clothes and hats, and even the wine and vegetables were moved to the elegant seat here and there. Go. When I went downstairs, I went out of the door and walked through the ruts. I saw that it was a broken fence door. I went in, and there were two hair shops in the pickle. There was a narrow road from the shoulder. There are small gray sheds facing north and south, if you dare, they will be called "Yazuo"! There is only a south window on the back wall of the Yazuo, which is darker than no window. There is a yard of hard coal with high eaves, and next to the coal pile is a drowning nest. When the sun shines, there will be bursts of that smell of stench pouring into the house! I have no choice but to smell the smell I had a hard meal. I said, "I'll go out and stand for a while." Looking up, I saw the three buildings next to the wall, and I realized that this place was next to the one who often asked me to be his bodyguard. In the satin store. I know all the shopkeepers, old and young. I have even seen two grandchildren named Zeng'er and Yan'er in his arms. If I had known this before, it would not be good to borrow his place. Is it? My brother, you go on listening, this is going to be an opera."

Mr. An said: "I saw several theaters outside the city. Where did you hear them?" Well, there are always two big baskets at the gate of the garden, and the baskets are piled with melon seeds. That bald monk Bukong is good at all these things, and he must occupy the two official buildings at the gate. When I asked, it was said that someone had already occupied it, so I had to sit upstairs in the upside-down seat along the stage. When I sat down, if I wanted to watch the play, I had to look at the back. ", saying that this is a red-footed character. I heard him crying and yelling for a long time, and I couldn't stand it anymore. Looking at those listening to the opera, there are some who smack their lips, and some who have a head, and those who never Those in the dantian shouted out with luck, and there were a few with sideways ears and good eyeballs who listened there as a serious matter. Look at them like that, compared to the book that says "Poetry" and "Li" , you can still hear it engrossed!"

"At this moment, the theater audience occupying the second floor is coming. One is a tall, fat man with a fair face, a moustache, and half-pushed teeth on the outside of his lips; the other is short-sighted, Arched shoulders, he is a skinny guy. These two people, seven long and eight short ball ball balls, brought a whole bunch of fucking Xiao Dan! Talking about Xiao Dan, let alone your stomach Brother Yu is old and crazy, but he doesn't think much of him. Why? When he saw someone, please kowtow, be humble and timid. Let's be happy, call and scold him, but he has to say it or laugh. He coaxed us with a smile. He was only earning a few taels of silver for that, which is pitiful and uncommon. It wasn’t until I saw that fat man’s naughty Xiaodan that I realized that Xiaodan in Beijing had another trick. As soon as he went upstairs, he sat on two tables together. When he sat in the middle, the group of Xiaodans also sat on the table, forming such a big rabbit stall. The skinny man sat on the side. They In front of this group of people, dare not mention the word "Xiaodan", they are all called "Xiaogong", and they are called "Xiaogong" occasionally, the same "two names are not taboo", and they refuse to nominate Dao's surname, only calling him by his title. "

"I was surprised there, and then came up such a young girl with a snake waist. Looking at the fat man, he didn't have a face. I only heard two words directed at him. I understood these two words, saying yes 'Belly fragrance'. After saying these two words, they also went to the table and sat down next to the fat man. The two of them sprayed a plaque with the four characters "huizi" out of their mouths. This time, that time The short-sighted person just stared blankly at the stage. The song on the stage was the song "Talk back to me" in "Butterfly Dream". After a while, he took off his make-up and went upstairs. The fat man shouted first: "Mrs. Zhuangyuan is here!" The smug look on his nearsighted face immediately seemed to be his wife. "

"I'm just wondering, why did the wife of the champion go to the theater when she came to Beijing? After asking Monk Bukong, I found out that the fat man's surname was Xu, and his name was Duxiang. There was another one in the inner city named Banner." Hua, this counts as the two rich gentlemen who belong to the first and second in the city of Beijing. The thing on the waist of the water snake is called Yuan Baozhu. I see his big gong and pot, humming, it really looks like his mother A 'Yuanbao pig!' It turned out that he just said that the 'belly fragrance' and 'belly fragrance' were called that fat man! Only then did I know that Xiaodan was also called the master, saying that this is elegant. I can't ask. "Then what happened to Mrs. Zhuangyuan?" He said: "The surname of the one who stretches his shoulders and back is called Shi Lianfeng. He is the number one scholar and Shi Xiami's nephew." I don't know this Shi Xiami Who is it? He also said: "That Hei Xiaodan is the most admired by the number one scholar, so he is called Mrs. Number One Scholar." I only worry about his wife. If someone asks him to accompany him for a drink, will he go or not? "Master An smiled slightly and said, "It's unreasonable!"

Deng Jiugong said: "Have you looked at this and it's over? There's more! Immediately afterwards, the audience from the first upstairs also came. There were four people in total, laughing and laughing together. Looking at the scene, although it is A bunch of Zizuizi children, but they all look like the children of aristocratic families. When they sit down, they pay attention to being called Xiaodan. There was a quarrel, and I borrowed a pen from the cabinet, and he spent it himself. A dozen sheets of toilet paper opened a note, sorry I saw his followers, they ran around for a while, and no one called. Afterwards, a crooked big-headed boy came out of the exit door. Come on, with monkey nails made of pure mud, come up to that room, and look at the four of them, not hooking their heads, not bending over their waists, they are far away from you, and they are sitting next to the long-faced thin man Sit down. After sitting down, the five of them started laughing. The skinny man called Xiao Dan 'Clapper Head', and he said with a clatter of claws: 'My name is 'Clapper Head', don't you? Isn’t it called “sneezing”?’ There was also a man with a sharp voice with naked eyes, and he said something to him. He pushed that hat forward, and it was like a slap on the head. I Just say that this little Dandanzi wants to be sweet, but these guys are happy to be beaten and scolded by him! I can no longer guess who they are giving money to whom!"
