Chapter 20

Feng Luan went back to the room, sent someone to put away the handkerchief Mao Yuan had given her, she was in a bad mood, she thought about it and cried on the bed, but she didn't dare to make a loud noise, so she just fell asleep on her side.

At this time, shopkeeper Mao returned to the store, his complexion was not very good.Seeing him like this, Mao Lin took a few steps to hide.There were more and more guests, and there was a man in old clothes, who looked like a coolie, and when he came, he shouted, "A bowl of wine."

Mao Lin ordered a drink and said, "Zou San, your business is good today, drinking so early." Zou San was sitting carelessly, with one leg on the long bench, picked up the wine bowl and drank half of it in one go, wiped Wiping the wine juice from his lips, he turned his eyes a few times and asked, "Where's the shopkeeper?"

"His father is busy inside." Mrs. Mao Lin brought the wine and went to work to clean the counter.Zou San looked at it and smiled: "Lady shopkeeper, you have a buddy, why bother to work hard?"

Mao Lin didn't turn his head back and said: "The guys are all useful. There is no need to hire people for this trivial work." Zou San smiled: "Lady, your family gives a lot of money to others, and you work hard here."

Just as he was talking, the shopkeeper Mao came out.As soon as Zou San saw him, he waved: "Come here, shopkeeper, you should buy me a drink." Zou San is an idler, not a hooligan, but also somewhat difficult.He has a lot of strength, and when he has no money, he does hard work to support himself; when he has money, he eats three bowls of wine and a catty of meat.

Of course Shopkeeper Mao didn't believe what he said.But Zou San's words can relieve boredom, and shopkeeper Mao, who was worried about the Zhou family's marriage with the Guo family, sat down and joked: "Your mother-in-law slept with me, should I buy you a drink?"

Mao Lin laughed, and took the tablecloth to the back to wash.There was no one in front of the store for a while, Zou San lowered his voice and smiled meaningfully: "Shopkeeper, have you been troubled recently?"

"Nonsense." Shopkeeper Mao forced a smile.Zou San said another sentence, which stunned shopkeeper Mao.He laughed even more with ulterior motives, drank half a bowl of wine in his hand, and said in a low voice, "Did you lose money on the counter?"

Shopkeeper Mao was taken aback, seeing that Zou San didn't seem to be joking, and knew that he knew a lot of gossip.I checked at the counter, and within a quarter of an hour, shopkeeper Mao's complexion was as black as the bottom of a pot.

In this counter, five taels of silver are missing!
Sitting leaning on the bench with an empty bowl in his hand, Zou San just smiled.The shopkeeper Mao was in a daze at the counter for a while, and when he came out, he went straight to the big wine tank.

There are many kinds of wine in the wine shop, what Zou San usually buys is the usual big burning tank.Shopkeeper Mao went straight to the first-class wine. Although it was still a big wine vat, the aroma of the wine was different once it was brewed.

Zou San sucked his nose intoxicated and smelled it, and saw the wine bowl fell in front of him.Shopkeeper Mao had a gloomy face, as if someone had died in the family.Pushing the wine bowl with his fingers, he said word by word: "Which one did it!"

The person who stole the money must spend it outside.People like Zou San are the most capable in the lower class.He must have heard something before he came to ask for a drink.

"Hey, it's your young shopkeeper." Zou San didn't hide his words when he had wine.Shopkeeper Mao stayed there again, his neck straightened as if he would no longer move.

When he was able to move, he shook his head severely: "No, my son will not steal money from my family."

Zou San drank half a bowl of wine again, sipped the aroma of the wine with his mouth open, and sneered when he heard this: "What if it's for a girl? The shopkeeper, the young shopkeeper is not small. When it comes to that, on the play." Singing, Years Like Water Flying, what kind of beautiful flowers are here.” Zou San knocked on his head and muttered to himself: “I’m dizzy, I just listened to the play last night, so I can’t remember what flowers it is. The Qin family of jewelry is putting on a show, and their second son is getting married and wants to build a new house. As for me, I am good at building roofs. Their family invited me to go, and I also listened to the play last night. "

"Who stole my money?" The shopkeeper Mao was impatient, the shop was full of old buddies, and the old buddies were the most valued when opening a shop. The old buddies couldn't believe it, it was really tormenting.Seeing Zou San nagging endlessly, shopkeeper Mao reached out to grab the remaining half bowl of wine, and stared at Zou San with his dark eyes.

Zou San laughed a few times, opened the front of his clothes, revealing a chest as dark as iron: "I'm not talking! The Qin family builds a house, and I specialize in building the roof. Just half an hour ago, I was squatting on the roof , I saw a sedan chair being stopped by a person in the alley at the back door of Qin's house."

Shopkeeper Mao's eyes widened, and Zou San pointed at Shopkeeper Mao with one hand: "Your young shopkeeper is blocking the sedan chair. Guess which one is sitting in the sedan chair?"

"What kind of sedan chair?" Shopkeeper Mao's heart skipped a beat. He had just seen Zhou Fengluan sitting in a sedan chair not long ago, and now the answer was ready to come out.

Zou San hooked his fingers, and the shopkeeper Mao honestly brought half a bowl of wine to him. Zou San drank it all in one gulp, dropped the wine bowl and made a sound on the wooden table, stood up and said, "That's Zhou's wine. girl!"

He turned around and wiped the drink from the corner of his mouth with the open corner of his clothes, and strode away.He was still humming and splashing water in front of the horse: "Jiang Ziya was stopped while riding a horse, but it turned out to be his wife from back then..."

Needless to say, shopkeeper Mao understood everything.He stood up and went straight to the back, seeing that Mao Lin was instructing the guys to deliver the seafood, he stopped her and dragged her into the room.

"Hey, be careful where you step, don't step on my big rice!" Mao Lin shouted a few times unexpectedly, and was dragged into the room by the shopkeeper.

After closing the door, shopkeeper Mao's eyes were piercing, and it could be said that there was a sneaky look: "Old woman, did you give money to your son?" Mao Lin denied: "No!"

"That's it!" The shopkeeper Mao took a step to the door, opened the door with a "crash" and shouted: "Xiao Yuanzi, Xiao Yuanzi!" "Young shopkeeper."

Mao Yuan trotted back from the outside: "Here I am." He came to his father and asked, "Father, what are you calling me for?"The beating made Mao Yuan dizzy and turned half a circle, "thumped" and sat on the ground, covering his face and staring at his eyes!

"You're crazy!" Mao Lin screamed, and rushed over to push shopkeeper Mao fiercely.Shopkeeper Mao staggered two steps, stood firm and came back, pushed Mao Lin into the room, then stared at his son with dead fish eyes, and said viciously: "You! Come in for me!"

The door was closed forcefully, and the guys in the yard looked at each other: "What's wrong?"

The shopkeeper Mao began to interrogate his son in the room, his eyes were about to pop out: "You gave the girl of the Zhou family money?" Mao Lin said "ah", "No way?" He also looked at his son.

Mao Yuan was caught off guard, and he didn't expect his father to know so soon.If he and Feng Luan hadn't divorced, Mao Yuan would have married Feng Luan early next year.

During this year, he thought about it countless times, and he couldn't sleep all night when he thought of holding Feng Luan in his arms.The young man Mao Yuan felt even more uncomfortable when he retired from marriage, and it was a big blow.
