Portable space

As the saying goes, snow is not cold and snow is cold. Although the sun is not very strong all day today, it has melted somewhat. At night, the temperature drops sharply, and you can see icicles on the eaves tomorrow morning.

It was really cold outside, but inside the house was as warm as spring, and the atmosphere was very lively.There were a lot of people invited tonight, and two tables were fully set up. Fearing that there would be a shortage of cooking staff, Lu Feng was also invited to help.

The women in the kitchen are busily busy, while the men in the living room are sweating from their mouths dripping with oil.Rural people are no better than city people, so they don't need to cook exquisite and beautiful dishes, as long as there are big fish and meat on the ground, coupled with strong shochu, they can make people eat and drink happily.

After five flavors of food and three rounds of drinking, the old village head stood up and said, "The commander in chief invited everyone to drink, that is to respect everyone, so let the commander in chief speak a few words."

A group of men who ate and drank put down their chopsticks and applauded loudly, all watching Zhang Taiping talking to him.

Zhang Taiping happened to have a few words to say, so he stood up without hesitation, and said with a blushing face: "It's really not a big deal to invite everyone to drink today. It's mainly a happy event in my family. My wife is pregnant again." I’m so happy, I want to invite everyone to have a few drinks and share.”

In recent years, with the improvement of national quality, people have gradually realized the benefits of the only child, and the family planning has been relaxed, and the punishment for having a second child is not as severe as it was a few years ago, and ordinary people will also be punished. It's only two or 3000 yuan, so I'm not afraid of what people will say when I say it now.If it was a few years ago, it would have been too late to hide it. How dare I say it in such a big way and hold a banquet to celebrate. I would have hid in other places and waited for the birth of a child before returning.

Hearing such a festive news, everyone smiled and toasted.

The Zhang family's first child was a girl. Everyone knew that Zhang Taiping had a lot of quarrels with his wife because of this matter in the past two years. Now that there is a possibility of having a son, he should be happy.So they all raised their wine glasses and said a few auspicious words.

But the people in this mountain are not very educated, and the congratulatory words they uttered are only a few words back and forth, and some even make jokes.

"Give birth to a big fat boy."

"I think it would be good to give birth to twins."

"Born your son early."

No matter what he said, as long as he came up to toast Zhang Taiping, he was not afraid of those who came, and he poured down the one-and-a-half inch tall wine glass one by one, without blushing or panting.

"Okay, okay, let the commander-in-chief thank you, if you get drunk, there will be no master." Seeing that the toast had passed, the old village chief came out to smooth things over.

Wang Laoqiang saw that Zhang Taiping didn't feel drunk after drinking a cup of strong wine, and even the red on his face disappeared, he said in surprise: "The commander-in-chief is good at drinking, at least he drank three or four catties, right? He seemed like a normal person."

In the evening, Wukong came back with his girlfriend, and after seeing the wine and meat, he also wanted to join in the fun, but Zhang Taiping drove him into the kitchen and sat on the kang with a group of children.

Although everyone treats Wukong as a child at home, and often let him sit at the table when eating, he is really sensible and knows how to use chopsticks and bowls, and will not do anything out of the ordinary.But it must not be alone, and it is inconvenient to let it sit on the table when treating guests.It's a bit outrageous.

But this guy is a drunkard, he couldn't sit still when he asked about the smell of wine, he got down from the kang after a while, and handed a cup to Zhang Taiping, begging for a drink.

People who often come to Zhang Taiping's house are not surprised by its behavior, but those who don't come often are really surprised.

"Marshal, does your monkey know how to drink?"

The old village head said with a smile: "Hey, this is not an ordinary monkey. It has been psychic for a long time. Not only can it drink but also use chopsticks. It is no different from a human except that it can't speak human language."

"Hey, this is the first time I've seen such a magical monkey."

Wukong could understand people's words, he grinned proudly at the speaker, and then handed the cup to Zhang Taiping in a creaking voice.

"Sure enough, it's psychic!"

Zhang Taiping was helpless, the wine he drank tonight was hard liquor, he didn't dare to pour more for it, fearing that it would get drunk and go crazy, so he only poured the bottom of a glass.

But this guy was a bit greedy, he drank the wine in the glass with a sip, and then passed the glass over.

"Okay! Don't drink too much." Zhang Taiping scolded.

Wukong jumped up and down a little bit when he saw that he couldn't get the wine, and the way he scratched his ears and cheeks made everyone laugh.

"Pour some more if you want to drink." A man next to him yelled.

This guy Wukong can also play tricks and show off his cuteness, and he bows and bows, so pitiful.

Zhang Taiping had no choice but poured another half a cup for it, and said: "That's all, let's go to the kang."

Probably because he felt that he could not be rescued any more, he went into the kitchen and went to the kang resentfully, holding a wine glass.

It probably smelled meat tonight, and Xiao Zi and the big-tailed squirrel who were always wandering outside would also come, Zhang Taiping threw two pieces of beef at them and sent them away.Xiao Zi is an omnivore, but she eats meat most of the time, and only occasionally eats some fruits and vegetables, while the big-tailed squirrel is an out-and-out vegetarian, and I don’t know how these two little guys get mixed up. together.

Drinking spirits in winter is one of the things that men are most happy with. After a few glasses of wine, not only will the body be warmed up, but also the temper will be relaxed. The atmosphere in the room is extremely lively, and bursts of laughter burst out from time to time.

Just as everyone was talking happily, the door was suddenly pushed open from the outside.A gust of cold wind blew in, causing the people sitting near the door to tremble coldly, and all the people sitting in the room looked towards the door.

At the door were Wang Peng's mother and her pregnant daughter-in-law.Seeing Zhang Taiping, Queen Mother immediately cried and said, "Marshal, you must save Wang Peng!"

The daughter-in-law of Wang Peng's family has been pregnant for more than eight months. If she came here with a big belly at night, something big must have happened.

Zhang Taiping hurriedly welcomed the two into the room and said: "It's cold outside, come in first before we talk." Then he called into the kitchen, Lu Feng and Cai Yazhi came out and helped Wang Peng's wife in.

Zhang Taiping saw that the two were a bit confused, he patted the arm of the Queen Mother who was holding his sleeve and said: "Don't worry, Auntie, first sit down and talk about what happened, please."

It was Wang Peng's daughter-in-law who had seen the scene outside, she was a little calmer, she slowly got on the stool and said, "Wang Peng was kidnapped."

The faces of the people in the whole room were one sided, and they had never encountered such a thing before.

Zhang Taiping said: "Don't panic, tell the matter carefully."

Zhuang Yu calmed down and told the whole story carefully: "A few days ago, the beauty salon called and said that someone was causing trouble. I am inconvenient to move now, so I asked Wang Peng to deal with this matter. I didn't expect Wang Peng to deal with it. After I went there, I couldn’t get in touch on the phone, and I haven’t come back in the past two days. Someone called just now and said that they want to take 200 million to redeem people at [-] o’clock tonight, and they won’t wait when it’s overdue. They also said that they can’t call the police, otherwise Tear up the ticket immediately."

"Up there?"

"They didn't say anything, they just asked them to bring the money to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda Square at [-] o'clock, and they will contact you again."

Zhang Taiping frowned. It would take nearly two hours from here to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda. In addition, it is inconvenient to go out when the mountains are closed due to heavy snow, and the road will not be fast. It will take at least three hours to get to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda. It is now eight o'clock If there are too many, you have to leave immediately.

Zhuang Yu said: "The main thing is to get the people back first. The money doesn't matter, just treat it as a way to spend money. It's just that I don't have that much cash here, only 50." After finishing speaking, he handed over a box.

The Queen Mother immediately cried and said, "You must bring Wang Peng back, and you can even ask Auntie to kneel down for you."

Zhang Taiping hurriedly comforted the Queen Mother.The bank was closed early at night, and it was definitely impossible to go to the bank to withdraw money. Fortunately, he kept more than 100 million emergency funds in the space, and with some withdrawals from home, he could make up 200 million.

Calling Cai Yazhi into the bedroom, Zhang Taiping took out all the money in the space, and Cai Yazhi took out some money from the cabinet. Adding the 50 brought by Zhuang Yu, they made up 200 million.

The village chief stood up and said: "Marshal, is the money enough? If not, let the villagers contribute some." If the old village chief didn't dare to say these words before, but it's different now. Every household has tens of thousands of 10,000+ spare cash.

Others also responded.

Zhang Taiping shook his head and said: "No need, the money is enough." Then he said to Wang Gui, "Brother Wang, please come with me."

"It's okay, something like this happened in the village, I should go." Wang Gui immediately agreed.

Wang Laoqiang also stood up and said, "Let me go too."

Old man Qian was not far behind: "Let's go together."

Zhang Taiping shook his head and said: "Everyone's intentions are good, but the fewer people involved in this matter, the better."

Hearing what he said, the elder sister didn't say anything anymore.

"Wang Peng must be rescued." The Queen Mother cried.She and Wang Peng depended on each other and raised Wang Peng single-handedly. If something happened to Wang Peng, her life would really collapse.

Zhang Taiping said firmly: "Don't worry, Auntie, I will definitely bring Wang Peng back."

Cai Yazhi stepped forward and told Zhang Taiping, "Be careful."

Zhang Taiping nodded, smiled and comforted her and said: "It's okay, don't you still think about my skills? The most I can do is redeem people with money, nothing will happen to me, don't worry."

After speaking, he carried the suitcase and went out with Wang Gui.
