Water Margin: You dog official, you still say you don’t know martial arts?

Chapter 620: Shandong's No. 1 Tiger Minister [ update]

The door of this hut was also closed.

Liu Gao listened attentively for a moment, then stepped forward and knocked on the door twice:

"Granny, open the door!"

mother-in-law?

Sun An, Zhang Heng and Zhang Shun were all stunned:
No, how do you know there’s a mother-in-law inside?
What if she is a beautiful girl?

No one answered from the door, and Sun An, Zhang Heng, Zhang Shun and the others suddenly realized:
It turns out that her husband was cheating him!

If there was someone in the hut, and it happened to be a mother-in-law, she might have been tricked out by her husband!
Liu Gao calmly clapped his hands twice again and said loudly:

"Mother-in-law, I know you are home!

"You're not busy for a moment washing dates by the stove!
"Why don't you open the door first? I have something important to ask you!

"After you've asked, you can continue washing!"

Good guy!
The old lady is taking a bath?

Sun An, Zhang Heng, Zhang Shun and others were all stunned:
It's getting more and more outrageous, as if you can see it!

Zhang Heng looked at Zhang Shun and said: If there really is an old lady taking a bath inside the room, I will stand upside down and have diarrhea in the Yangtze River!

"Snapped!"

Before Liu Gao finished speaking, there was a sound of something breaking from the thatched cottage.

"hiss--"

Sun An, Zhang Shun, Zhang Heng and the others couldn't help but gasp:
No way, is it true?
Sun An jumped into the wall, turned around and saw a white-haired old woman!
The old woman sat down beside the stove, her face pale and trembling like a sieve.

There was a broken basin at her feet, and in the basin were a handful of washed dates...

At this moment, the old woman seemed to have seen a ghost, and stammered:

"Ghost...Ghost..."

Oh my god is it so magical?
Sun An couldn't believe his eyes.

Not to mention the old woman, even he thought he had seen a ghost!

How did Liu Gao know that the old woman was taking a bath?
No, are you washing dates?
Zhang Heng was impatient and couldn't help but push the door open. He was disappointed when he saw the old woman:
"Husband, mother-in-law hasn't taken a bath either!"

Zhang Shun came in and saw: "Brother, isn't grandma just washing dates?"

"no……"

When Zhang Heng saw the washed dates in the basin, he felt sick:

"So it's to wash the dates..."

Liu Gao looked at him strangely: "What do you think?"

Zhang Heng blushed: "I thought...

"My husband was trying to trick her. I didn't expect...

"It turns out it's true!"

I'm embarrassed to expose you!

Liu Gao curled his lips, smiled and went forward to help the old woman:
"Don't be afraid, mother-in-law. We are human beings."

The old woman trembled all over and asked tremblingly:

"You are human, how do you know I am washing dates?"

"Mother-in-law, I misunderstood."

Liu Gao pointed at his ears with a smile:

“I just have good ears and I heard it.

"If you don't believe me, feel my hand and see if it's warm."

As Liu Gao spoke, he held the old woman's hand.

The old woman was stunned for a moment, and finally breathed a sigh of relief:

“It’s hot, it’s hot…

"But how can one have such sharp ears?"

"The world is so big, there are all kinds of things!"

Liu Gao's smile was so friendly that even though Zhang Heng looked ferocious, the old woman was relieved:
"It's good that he's a human being. You scared me to death..."

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid."

Liu Gao stuffed a handful of copper coins into the old woman's pocket:
"Mother-in-law, this money is for you to calm down!
"We are brothers from the north doing business. We are hungry and thirsty when we get here. We want to buy some dates from you."

The old woman felt more at ease after receiving the money. Since they could give money, it meant that Liu Gao and his men were not bandits.

These days, bandits are scarier than ghosts!
"Eat what you want, a few dates are nothing."

The old woman said this and put the copper coins in her arms.

Liu Gao picked up a date and stuffed it into his mouth. It was crisp, sweet, and quite delicious:

"Mother-in-law, why don't you open the door?"

Seeing that Liu Gao was handsome and well-mannered, the old woman was completely relieved:

"To be honest with you, I heard that the court has sent 'Shandong's No. 1 Tiger Minister' to Yangzhou to serve as the prefect to quell the rebellion.

“I am right here at the wind gate and water outlet.

"Some families have moved to other places to hide, leaving me alone here to look after the houses."

Liu Gao was stunned: "Who is the most powerful minister in Shandong?"

The old woman asked in surprise:
"You are a guest from the north, and you don't know the most powerful minister in Shandong?"

Liu Gao stuffed a handful of copper coins in his hand:
"Appreciate further details!"

The old woman took the copper coin and immediately became excited:

"I heard that this 'First Tiger Minister of Shandong' was originally a village chief in Shandong. Later, he was made a county magistrate when he was besieging Liangshan and Chao Gai. Later, he was sent as an envoy to Liao and exempted from the annual tribute and became a prefect. Later, he was transferred to Yangzhou after he defeated Tian Hu in Hebei...

"Because he is a civil servant who is good at fighting, he is affectionately called the No. 1 Tiger Minister in Shandong by the government!"

Liu Gao took out another handful of copper coins:
"Mother-in-law, I love listening to celebrity biographies!
"What's his name?"

The old woman smiled happily when she saw the copper coin:

"I only heard about him from others, I don't know his name..."

Bring it to you!

Liu Gao had already grabbed the copper coin and handed it over, but then he pulled his hand back:

"You really can't remember the name?"

The old woman cried:
"really……

"Let me think about it again. I heard his last name is Liu. Could it be that his name is Liu Mang?"

Give you a skewer!
Liu Gao put the money back with a fake smile:

“It’s okay if you can’t remember.

"Mother-in-law, there are four of us who want to cross the river. Can you help us find a boat?"

The old woman looked at the money with a pained look:
“Where can we get a boat?
"Recently, Lu Shinang heard that Shandong's most powerful minister was coming to suppress the rebellion, so he detained all the ships and sent them to Runzhou."

Liu Gao nodded and handed the copper coin over again:

"We brought some dry food with us, and we're only going to stay at your house for two days.

"The money will be given to you as rent, and it won't bother you."

The old woman took the copper coin with a smile on her face:

"I can't rest, but there is no bed."

Liu Gao laughed and said, "It's okay. We can find a way ourselves."

The old woman said worriedly: "My dear, I am afraid that a large army will come sooner or later!"

Liu Gao nodded: "Got it, we will avoid it."

So Liu Gao and his companions settled down in the old woman's home.

Thinking about his new nickname Liu Gao, he was very happy:
Shandong’s number one tiger minister, so impressive!

It is well known that the more nicknames a person has in the Water Margin world, the more powerful he is.

For example, Lu Junyi was nicknamed "Jade Unicorn" and was known as one of the "Three Wonders of Hebei".

Song Jiang's nicknames were "Timely Rain", "Hu Baoyi" and "Filial and Righteous Black Sanlang".

He is now both "Little Xuande" and "Shandong's No. 1 Tiger Minister"!
He is also an awesome person with two nicknames!
After dark, Liu Gao, Sun An, Zhang Heng and Zhang Shun ate some dry food and strolled to the river together.

That night the stars and the moon shone together, the wind was calm, the waves were peaceful, and the water and sky were one color.

Zhang Shun discussed with Liu Gao:
"Sir, I tied two large silver coins to my clothes, put them on my head, and went straight to Jinshan Temple to give some bribes to the monk.

"I'll find out the truth and report back to my husband!"

"Why bother?"

Liu Gao pointed to the middle of the river with a smile: "Look, isn't there a boat coming?"
