Chapter 99: Bai Sheng's Day
Although Bianliang after the spring rain is not as pleasant as it is, how comfortable it is. However, the blue sky embellishes white clouds. In the Bai Mansion, there is a quiet place. On a spring morning, in the warm and bright sunshine, in the garden, birds fly by on Yuexin Lake, chirping non-stop.
In the more grand courtyard of Baifu South Courtyard, Bai Sheng lived for thirty years and had not had the freedom and happiness he had in recent days. As soon as the sky was dawn, he got up early under the service of the older maid. He was wearing a golden lineman's outer uniform, with a soft underwear, and carried the bird cage under the corridor, straightened his waist and swayed out of the South Courtyard with a swaying swaying.
He was walking around the garden with a refreshing spirit. The most satisfying thing in his heart was that he met a servant and maid who bent down and called "Master". Then he had breakfast, then left Bai Mansion, walked along the stone brick path by the river in the city, and admired the pleasure boats anchored on the river. If he could see a woman coming out to pour a chamber pot, he would whistle or tease her.
He thinks that life is what people live.
Although everything was provided by his younger brother, he felt that nothing was wrong. Except for Liangshan, he was also a great hero. He took advantage of the opportunity and planned to ask Bai Ning to arrange an official position for him.
When he wandered to the market, the pedestrians gradually rose as the sun rose, and more and more. The peddlers walking around the streets were carrying loads of goods. He stopped to look at them, remembering that when he was a peddler and selling wine on Huangnigang, how many of those people were alive back then? Even if there were alive, who could live with him?
Then, Bai Sheng shook his head with his hands behind his back and hummed a small song. The restaurants and tea shops on the street were rumbling about the artists' stories and singing, the tea fragrance mixed with the noise on the street, and a figure suddenly rushed out of a brothel, fell to the ground, rolled a few times, and then several thugs rushed out to the man on the ground and punched and kicked.
Bai Sheng was very unhappy. The rare and comfortable Yaxing in the morning was interrupted. He straightened his chest and walked over. When he saw the man on the ground, he yelled, "Fourth, why did you get someone to drive him out again? My brother gave you a lot of money last time."
When those Hua Jiefang saw someone making a sound, they stopped. Seeing that Bai Sheng was dressed quite rich, one of them became much more disciplined and bowed to him: "This official should recognize Wei Laosi, but don't spend money on him. This guy is a bitch and prostitute. No matter how much money he gives, he will stuff it into the bottomless pit. We beat him a lot and are so annoyed."
"Don't say it."
Hearing that he was called Junwai, Bai Sheng waved his hand boldly, then took out his heavy purse and threw it in his palm, and said squintingly: "How much does the fourth brother owe you? I Junwai pay for him."
The man on the ground had a scattered hair, although his face had bruises, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a national face, but his face was full of ruffians. This man was the idle man that Bai Sheng met on the street when he first came to Bian Liang. The two of them hit it off at first sight. The past few days after coming to Bian Liang, this fourth brother led him around. Of course, the gambling house was their favorite place to go.
At this time, Wei Si came over to see Bai Sheng pay the money. Fang Zheng's face suddenly started to laugh and said, "It's better for Mr. Bai to be righteous. If he comes later, the fourth brother will be sent to the yamen now."
Bai Sheng was enjoying Wei Si's back massage at his back while walking. He liked this guy and knew how to greet people. In the past, he always pleased others, and even the wife gave it away. Now he was cursed by others. This feeling was like floating on the clouds and spending some money. He didn't take it seriously. Anyway, he asked the housekeeper for it when he was gone. His younger brother's house was full of valuable items. He sold a few items, and it was endless to spend in a few months.
"Master Bai, let's go to Chen Gui's gambling house today?" Wei Si asked flatteringly, his hands kept pinching the back of his neck now.
The comfortable feeling made Bai Sheng enjoy the half-squinted eyes. "I went to the last time. The house was not clean. I really thought Bai Sheng was blind. If it weren't for the boss's wife's white breasts, I would have left long ago."
"Yes, Mr. Bai is as wise as a torch, but that woman is very satisfied. But Mr. Bai is so rich, why don't he get all the best in the fourth gang of Mr. Bai? See if he can take it down. Then, hehe, the younger one will be satisfied." Wei Si raised his eyebrows and encouraged him, showing his flattery.
Bai Sheng pretended to be a twitch and shook his head, "No need for now. I haven't gained a foothold in Bian Liang yet. It's hard to deal with it if I get into trouble."
At this time, we squeezed all the way and crossed two streets. Wei Si had already sweated heavily, and his stomach suddenly sounded, a little embarrassed.
"Didn't have breakfast?"
Bai Sheng looked around and saw a food seller not far away from the other side. "Let's go, you have worked hard all the way. Since I, Bai Sheng, have handed you this brother, I can't let you work in vain. Why don't you fill your stomach first?"
The crowds of people were crowded to the market. Wei Si wore a rough cloth dress to protect Bai Sheng from behind and walked first. Every move was like a loyal slave, which made Bai Sheng feel moved. Before he knew it, he also felt that he was a character.
In front of the shop facing the street, Wei Si hurriedly wiped a table clean and invited Bai Sheng to sit down first. Then he entered the shop and brought two bowls of noodles, but he didn't do it and stared at Bai Sheng with a eager eye.
"Look at what I do, you can eat it." Bai Sheng pushed the bowl in front of him with disgust, "I'll give this bowl to you too. I've already eaten it when I came out, and I can't get used to the food on the street."
"Save it."
Wei Si's expression froze for a moment, and soon nodded with a chuckle. He ate soft food, but he bite very hard. He huh huh scattered the soup noodles in the bowl, ordered another steamed bun, broke it and put it into the bowl and stir it together to eat.
Seeing his eating behavior, Bai Sheng felt disdainful, "Don't eat so loudly, hurry up."
While he was talking, suddenly, Wei Si raised the bowl and stopped, looked to the right. Suddenly, he put the bowl down and said to Bai Sheng: "Master Bai, the fourth brother has left in advance, and the death-seeking ghost is here."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a shout at the intersection of the street, "Isn't that Wei Laosi?" "I actually let us meet..." "...... I'll stop him first."
Seven or eight big men rushed over there. Although they didn't hold anything in their hands, they couldn't resist the number of people. Wei Si's face was frightened and ran away, knocking several people all the way over, crawling into the alley and heading towards Xihuamen. The seven or eight big men naturally wouldn't give up, and they followed him one by one to chase him.
"What kind of bird thing?"
Bai Sheng touched his head and stood up, feeling inexplicable.
…………………
The day passed quickly and the sunset gradually set.
Bai Sheng passed the first time that it was not very pleasant during the day. He watched the family sit on the boat happily on the shore of Yuexin Lake, looking at the sunset in a vague way, and felt angry.
At this time, a servant came over and said that there was a man named Lao Si in the back door looking for him.
"This bird guy probably owes a lot of money again."
Bai Sheng didn't want to go out to see him, but when he thought that this person was not only owed debt, he was still very respectful to him, so he eliminated the unpleasant things during the day.
When he arrived at the back door, he saw Wei Si squatting in the corner of the wall, his nose was bruised and swollen, and his body was covered with scars. He couldn't help but be surprised and said, "Second, how much money do you owe others?"
Bai Sheng was so anxious that he was walking around in the same place, "If you continue like this, you must be beaten to death. I'll just pay for you. This time, there's no next time."
Moreover, Wei Si, who had been bowing his head and silently raised his head, his eyes full of reluctance.
He said, "No need... Mr. Bai, the fourth brother doesn't want to live like this anymore. The fourth brother wants to make a name for himself and doesn't want to be looked down upon."
"If you make a name for yourself, you have to pay off your debt first, otherwise others will come to you." Bai Sheng stomped his feet and went to take out his money bag.
A thick hand was stained with blood and pressed Bai Sheng's wrist while purging his money bag. Wei Si shook his head, the corner of his bruised mouth opened, and his voice was hoarse and slightly deeper, "Master Bai, I know you have something to do in the palace, send me in."
As he said that, he unbuttoned his pants.
The crotch was bloody and empty.
