Chapter 32 The Sad Man
Click, click, click...
The two-finger-thick bamboo slowly fell to the ground with just one cut, and the slender bamboo leaves also fell one after another. Although the weather had just turned cooler, many leaves were already turning yellow.
Bang! The hatchet suddenly came out of his hands, and the little beggar sat on the ground and gasped for air. Glitter beads of sweat slowly flowed down his abdominal muscles, soaking his dirty pants.
The little beggar untied the coat covering the birdcage. When he saw the sun, the little bird immediately made a crisp chirp, which was extremely sweet. The little beggar lay on the bamboo leaves with his head in his arms and looked at the blue sky, enjoying it quietly.
Wonderful moment.
I don’t know how long it took, the sun gradually turned to the west, and the side door of Guo Mansion still didn’t ring. As long as it didn’t rain, there would usually be an elder with a three-petal mouth to pull the bamboo away at this time, but today it took a long time.
Come.
The little beggar couldn't sit still anymore. After all, the salary of two hundred cash per month was not good for a white-collar worker. He didn't know who made the bamboo every day, and he didn't know where the bamboo would be sent, but he knew that Changle Building was
Xu Xian's industry.
He put away the cage and walked out of the dog hole to go to Changle Building. To his surprise, the store in Changle Building was closed. It was one of the most prosperous seasons in Kaifeng every year. Farmers would come to the city to sell their grain.
Poultry, there are many people from other places coming to Kaifeng to participate in the martial arts competition this year. It is a good time to make money. How could the always hard-working female shopkeeper of Changle House close its business?
The little beggar squatted in front of the door and waited for a long time. Seeing the sunset in the west, he got up to leave. An old beggar nesting in the corner suddenly greeted him: "I haven't seen you for a long time. Why did you suddenly come here to beg for food today?"
Already?"
The little beggar waved his hands and said, "I'm not here to beg for food. I have something to ask someone in the shop."
"Hehe... No matter you are begging for food or have something else to do, you have been waiting in vain for the store to arrange a happy event today. I'm afraid it won't open in the next two days."
"A happy event? I remember that the female shopkeeper had already tied up her hair in a bun and is already getting married."
"Who said female shopkeeper? I'm talking about the girl who always gave you corn!"
As soon as the old beggar said this, the little beggar seemed to be stimulated by something. He trembled and couldn't even stutter when he spoke, "How could it be possible? Impossible!"
"How is it impossible! It seems like she married a nobleman and became a concubine!"
"Her brother is so arrogant, how could he let her be a concubine?"
The old beggar pointed to his skinny legs, "I'm afraid you don't know that the two of them are not biological siblings. The father and son of the family I married are both high-ranking officials in the court. Maybe they are trying to cling to each other! Didn't you see this?
The beggars on Mahang Street are all gone, because they are all asking for money."
The little beggar shook his head vigorously, clenched his fists and said, "I, I, I don't believe it! Why don't you ask for money!"
The beggar smiled and pointed at his skinny legs, "I really want to go, but I can't walk."
The little beggar grabbed the old man's ragged clothes and said, "Tell me where her home is!"
The old beggar turned to the southeast and said, "Liuhe Bay, just cross the Zhou Bridge and follow the Bianshui River eastward to the end."
The little beggar took off a money bag with pudding from his waist and threw it to the old beggar. He ran south along the imperial street with his bare feet spread out. His feet seemed to have wings and he was flying among the crowd. In a blink of an eye,
The effort disappeared.
The old beggar weighed the heavy bag of money in his hand and said, "This kid has a good heart, but it's a pity that he was stupid and thought about something he shouldn't have. What a bad fate!"
Today is the day for Xiao Can to become a monk, but there is not much joy on the faces of the people in Liuhewan. Instead, they look unhappy. The most outstanding girl in Liuhewan is getting married, but she has to be a concubine to teach people how to have a psychological balance.
Looking at the dowry laid out in an alley, it makes me even more envious.
The most miserable person is Jiubao, who just followed the angel to Hebei to demolish the temple. When he came back, the girl he liked was married or became a concubine for others, and he had all the thoughts of wiping his neck.
Before the banquet started, Jiubao was already lying on the table and was drunk. Lao Zhang had a look of hatred on his face, "How could I, a hero, have given birth to such a worthless bastard like you? Isn't he just a woman?
Well, I have already told you that I have said hello to the daughter of Commander Zhang of the Hujie Army. She is two points more handsome than Xiaocan, and I will bring you to formally hire her in two days."
Jiubao waved his hand and said: "If you like it, just marry him back and renew your relationship. Anyway, I don't want it!"
"Whatever you want, if you want to marry a princess, you have to have that ability. You might as well go to the river and bring back a fat nun. She has a thick waist and a big butt. You can tell she is fertile at first glance.
You're a loser and you still want me to worry about you."
Dakui Lao Tzu said: "Don't look at that guy, that guy looks impersonal. I understand it in my heart. The eldest boss in my family is stupid and unlucky. He originally married the eldest daughter of the Yue family and later became the younger daughter. Seeing that little
The girl was about to get haircut, but unexpectedly she died in infancy again.
My in-laws are unreasonable. Now that I have a daughter, I should return the betrothal gift. I will find another marriage for Dakui. Who would have thought that the old bastard actually said that the betrothal gift has been spent, and the daughter is gone. The granddaughter said that she wants another one.
Wait two years. It’s just a matter of getting married, but I’m a generation shorter, don’t you think you’re angry?”
Everyone present laughed when they heard this. As soon as the laughter subsided, they saw Zhao Ningxiu coming out of the courtyard gate and heading this way. She was dressed in formal clothes today and was very decent. When she arrived, Yifu said: "Uncles, I have something to do with you."
Ask for each other."
Lao Zhang said: "The lady said that it is better to ask for nothing than to ask for anything. The prince is not in the capital, and we should help him when there is something at home. You just give him orders."
Xiaocan came out of the cabinet today, but Xu Xian was not in the capital. A few days ago, he and Zhao Kuangyin were sent to Longyou to supervise the war. Zhao Ningxiu took care of Xiaocan's wedding.
"The Yin Mansion is also holding a happy event today. I am a colleague of the Young Master of the Yin Mansion. Now that I am not in the capital, I would like to ask all of you uncles to go and wait for me to congratulate you." Zhao Ningxiu said, taking out a gift list and handing it over.
"This is not a difficult task. Isn't it just to give gifts and drink? I'll go!" Lao Zhang reached out and took the gift list and looked through it. "The gifts are heavy. If you are just a colleague, you don't need so many."
Aunt Liu said manly: "I usually say that you, Lao Zhang, are shrewd. Why are you so confused now? Madam Da Lang's gift is still for Xiao Can's face. I just hope that the daughter of the Yin family will take this generous gift lightly."
It’s hard for her. Since your legs and feet are inconvenient, let me drink the Yin family’s wine.”
As Aunt Liu spoke, the man snatched the gift list and kicked it in his arms, "It's Xiaocan's blessing to have a sister-in-law like you, but don't worry, no one will dare to bully our Liuhewan daughter even if she is a concubine."
"Junior, I have one more thing to ask Uncle Liu. I'm not going to turn around and want to borrow your big pillar so that he can carry the little silkworm into the car."
