Chapter 50

An hour later.

Fat Miao'er, Li Xiaodao, Wei Shu, and Liu Ye'er were all fully armed, and they put on the tattered clothes they used to wear when they were begging, and the open straw sandals that they almost threw away.

With disheveled hair and darkened face, he walked into the largest restaurant in the town - Fumanlou with a chipped bowl in his hand.

"stop!"

Just as Fat Miao'er and the others were about to step in, the little fellows in Fuman Building immediately stepped forward, blocked them from the door, and waved their hands as if to repel flies.

"Go, go, go, go beg for food elsewhere, don't delay the business of our restaurant."

The man pushed and shoved, trying to expel the four Fat Miao'er.

"We are here for dinner, why should we be driven away?"

Fat Miao'er rolled his eyes, raised his voice, and roared in a crisp voice.

This loud voice attracted the attention of the diners in Fumanlou. Some of them stood up, some looked sideways, and all showed curious eyes.

"What's going on here?"

"What happened?"

"It seems that some beggars came to the restaurant to beg for food."

"Where are the beggars, how come they come to Fumanlou to beg for food, and don't ask about it. Fumanlou is a place where they can come in."

As the largest restaurant in Qingyang Town, it is magnificent, with carved eaves reflecting the sun and painted buildings flying clouds.

It is a place where rich people, country gentry, and businessmen gather in the town.

"Little Second!"

A well-dressed man beckoned and called the other guys in the restaurant, and raised his hand to pass over a plate of snow-white steamed buns on the table.

"Give this steamed bun to those little beggars."

"Yes, Mr. Zhang!" The boy responded immediately.

This man often comes to Fumanlou and is a regular customer. The young man also knows his identity. He is the young owner of the largest cloth shop in the town.

"Mr. Zhang is still kind-hearted."

The little guy cheerfully complimented you, took the plate and walked quickly towards the door, came in front of Fat Miao'er and the others, and said softly: "This is a reward from the young master of Jinxiu Cloth Village, take it and leave quickly, don't come again .”

The little guy grabbed the steamed buns and stuffed them into the arms of Fat Miao'er, Li Xiaodao and others one by one.

No more, no less, exactly four.

After completing the task, the boy turned around to leave, but the next second, someone grabbed his sleeve.

"You are..."

Before the little guy could figure it out, the steamed buns he sent out came back to him again, still four!

"We don't eat steamed buns, we want to eat chicken drumsticks, we want to eat fish, and we want to eat the best dishes in restaurants!"

Fat Miao'er dragged his throat and elongated his voice.

As soon as her words fell, Li Xiaodao immediately stepped forward and said in harmony: "We are rich, we are here today to drink and eat meat!"

Li Xiaodao straightened his chest, spread his legs apart, raised his head, took out a string of copper coins from his cuff, waved it in front of the boys, and said triumphantly: "Look, we have money, five hundred coins! "

"This is a reward from Mrs. Wang for finding the cat." Wei Shu answered.

Liu Ye'er smiled shyly, and flattered her intentionally: "The old lady is really a kind person, she keeps her word, she really rewarded us with money, and we will never have to beg for food again."

Liu Ye'er's voice was not as loud as Li Xiaodao, Wei Shu's, and Fat Miao'er's, but her words were very clear.

Accurate and unmistakable transmission to the ears of restaurant guests.

There are also many passers-by on the street, who also stopped and looked around when they saw and heard the movement here.

"We have money, we want to eat well, let us in!"

Fat Miao'er stretched out her fleshy little hand, trying to push the boy away and rush in.

How can the little fellow let her succeed, the people who come and go here are all famous people, if a few beggars are put in, won't it affect the appetite of other guests.

Especially the clothes of the four of Fat Miao'er are really... unsightly.

The boy's eyes swept over Li Xiaodao's messy, weed-like hair, a look of disgust flashed in his eyes, and he refused in a stern voice: "No!"

"You can't come in."

Fumanlou's consumption is very high, and five hundred wen is inconspicuous here.

"Why not?"

Fat Miao'er complained loudly, backed away while talking, and when she was two or three meters away from the entrance of the restaurant, she plopped down and sat on the ground, crying loudly.

"We found the cat, and we got a reward of [-] Wen. We just want to come to the restaurant to have a big meal. Why don't you let us in?"

Fat Miao'er stomped on the ground with short legs, snot and tears, like a child who couldn't eat sugar and made trouble for no reason.

With this uproar, there were more crowds watching, and finally someone noticed what they were saying.

"What, the cat was found?"

"Is that the cat that offered a reward of ten taels of silver?"

"That's not right! The notice clearly said ten taels, but why did they say five hundred taels?"

"What's going on here?"

The voices of the surrounding crowd came and went, whispering and discussing constantly.

Someone couldn't help it anymore, and shouted at Fat Miao'er and the others: "Little beggar, have you found Wang's cat?"

"Yes!"

Upon hearing the question, Fat Miao'er stopped crying abruptly, raised her sleeves to wipe away her tears, and nodded innocently.

"The reward from the Wang family is ten taels, how did you get five hundred coins?" Another person asked.

Fat Miao'er scratched her head, her dark eyes were full of confusion: "But the gatekeeper only gave us five hundred Wen!"

After she finished speaking, Li Xiaodao immediately raised his left hand and showed the string of copper coins in front of everyone.

"Look, that's the string."

Fat Miao'er cooperated tacitly, stretched out her hand, and made everyone follow her gaze.

She also felt that she had taken advantage of it, shaking her head, and said in a soft voice, happily: "It's a long, long string, and there are many, many copper coins. We don't have to go hungry."

What a little fool!

What's the use of string length, how can there be money worth it.

Many people in the crowd snickered, and some people watched the fun and were not afraid of big things.

Said mockingly: "It is said that the Wang family is very kind, but now it seems that it is nothing more than that."

"A good ten taels of silver reward, in the blink of an eye, becomes five hundred Wen, bah! You are rich and unkind!"

"Unfortunately, I thought the Wang family was an exception. It turns out that they are the same as those who oppress the people!"

There was an overwhelming response, and more and more voices complained, and some even cursed on the spot.

"I'm looking for cats every day, and I broke my leg because of the ten taels of silver reward. It turns out that the Wang family is playing tricks."

"The Wang family is really nothing!"

These words have been agreed by some people, they are exactly the group of people who walk all over the streets and alleys every day, desperately looking for cats.

Originally, when they heard that the four of Fat Miao'er had found the cat, they all beat their chests and stamped their feet, lamenting the bad luck.

At this moment, ten taels has changed to five hundred words, and their moods have become mixed. They are envious and sympathetic, and more of them are gloating.

He couldn't help complaining again: "The Wang family's handling of this matter is really dishonest. In the future, whenever there is a reward offered, let's not participate. If we don't get the money, we will get very angry."

"Not worth it! Not worth it!"

Someone shook his head.

Some people waved their hands again and again.

At this time, a fresh and bright figure in the crowd lowered his head, thoughtful.
