Chapter 89

Seeing Jiang Liu's gluttonous appearance, Dougen Niang joked with him, "I'm just wondering, Liu Zi, you said you eat a lot every day, so why don't you get fat? You're just so big, yes Aren't they all caught by your mind?"

These words made Dougen and Jiang Liu laugh.

After eating the bean buns, while Dougen Niang was picking up a pot of bean buns in the pot, Jiang Liu pulled Dougen aside and said to Dougen in a low voice: "Dougen, I want to come, you said I put My master picked it up. But it’s here. The problem is, there are not many of us who can drink with him. I went back this morning and saw my master like that. Although I didn’t say anything, I was bored. Woolen cloth."

When Dougen heard Jiang Liu's words, Qiqiao Linglong's heart changed, and she immediately understood what it meant.In fact, he also thought of it, but this matter made him a little embarrassed, so he scratched his head and said, "You said this, and I thought of it too. But you said, you brought the emperor here, where do you live? This is a big problem. Besides, the current weather is icy and snowy, if it’s okay in summer, you can just find a place and spend the night.”

After Jiang Liu thought about it, it was the same reason.My own house is designated to be unable to live in. Dougen's house has a Westinghouse, but that house can't be occupied for a long time.It turned out that Dougen and his wife had been sleeping in the east room, and Jiang Liu also lived in the east room.In this way, the Westinghouse became a warehouse, and there was a lot of food in it, which was kept in a pile like that of the family. Besides, there was no paper on the wall of the Westinghouse, and it was as dark as a coal kiln.If you don't clean it up, you won't be able to live in it at all.

The two of them were worrying here, when the unprepared Dougen Niang interjected: "Then what Dougen, you clean up the West House, and put all the things inside into the small shed in the yard. Then just set fire to the kang. It's quite a big living person, and it can suffocate urine."

The two guys thought about it, and there were two young men standing, and this matter can't be done.Even if it takes a lot of work, but when you think about it, everyone will be together and have a lively Chinese New Year, which is better than nothing.Besides, Dougen hasn't seen the emperor for a long time, and he really misses his master.

In this way, the two guys discussed for a long time, and finally decided to let Jiang Liu clean up the house and paste the shed at home.Tomorrow, Dougen will take a car to Qipanshan to pick up Emperor Zhang.

After the order was made, Jiang Liu walked around the West Room again, thinking about how to tidy up the room, and put everything there.After thinking about it, Jiang Liu came out of Dougen's house and wanted to go back and prepare.

Speaking of which, it’s no matter who he is, according to Jiang Liu, this guy intends to go to Qipanshan by himself, but when he thinks of the sturdy Mongolian girl introduced to him by the emperor, Jiang Liu’s calf feels a little cramped, so He recognized that he was troubled at home, and he didn't want to suffer the unknown crime.

With such an idea, Jiang Liu left Dougen's house and was walking towards his own house when a person came to meet him. After Jiang Liu saw the person clearly, he felt happy and hurriedly said to that person: "I said Uncle Liu, you What are you going for?"

The person walking towards him was none other than Liu Cai, and he deserved this guy's unlucky luck. When Jiang Liu met him, Jiang Liu was thinking about who to ask for help. With such free labor, it would be no wonder that this kid let him go. Woolen cloth.

It was the first time that Liu Cai saw Jiang Liu take the initiative to talk to him, and he opened his mouth and called himself Uncle Liu, not to mention his heart was blooming, and Le's snot bubbles came out, which was about the same.

So he hurriedly said: "Oh, Liuzi, what, I'm just wandering around, what are you doing? By the way, I heard that you went to Yangcaogou that time, that was a great show. It’s really good for our men, if you have a chance, you should come to my place, we must have a good drink and get close to each other.”

Can Jiang Liu fail to understand what Liu Cai said?I talked in my heart, maybe you listened to it there, and you are learning and selling to fool me.Got it!I don't care what you heard from there, it's business to fool you into working for me first.

So he hurriedly said with a humble face: "Uncle Liu, don't say that. If I drink, I have to invite you. How can I make you spend money? I'm not, I'm going to clean up the house. No, my master came to my house to celebrate the New Year, and there is no place to live. I was thinking about cleaning up the west room of Dougen’s house so that they could live in. You said that the master took the trouble to teach me once, but now he’s at our house. You have to eat and drink well, and being ungrateful is not something we men do."

Jiang Liu's heart-to-heart words immediately shortened the distance between the two of them a lot.After listening to Liu Cai, he felt that Jiang Liu didn't treat him as an outsider, so he told him.

At this time, Liu Cai swept away the embarrassment of being at Jiang Liu's house last time, his head became hot, and he quickly said: "I like to hear what you say. We men have to be worthy of our conscience when we do things. So what, what's the matter?" Just squeak, anyway, I'm idle and have nothing to do."

What Liu Cai said was because the pulley was hitting the neck of the duck, facing that bend.This is what Jiang Liu was waiting for, but then he declined and said: "How dare you, you see, my master came to our house, there is a reason for you to be troubled, don't you think so? , Uncle Liu, when can you come to work?"

After all, Liu Cai is also a lazy person. If he is a little more diligent, he can't let his wife prepare things for the New Year at home alone. He will go out and wander around.According to his thinking, he was just being polite, and when Jiang Liu declined, he would just say a few words and the matter would be over.

But he didn't look at who was on the opposite side, that Jiang Liu was thick-skinned, and he was as refined as a ghost.If there is no chance, you have to find a loophole, not to mention Liu Cai said that, which made him stunned for a long time, before he said bravely: "Well, I'll go now, anyway, I will be fine and idle."

According to Liu Cai's thinking, since he couldn't avoid it, he might as well get it done earlier, so he can save his worry!
Just like that, in a few words, Jiang Liubai picked up a laborer.In fact, in the final analysis, it is that sentence, no desire is strong.Liu Cai still felt in his heart that Jiang Liu would definitely be useful in the future, otherwise he would not do these jobs in vain if he was killed.But even now, Liu Cai still has a way. He went around the village again, but he didn't know why he was fooling around, and brought several people here.

More people make it easier to work, and fewer people make better food. The old saying does not deceive people.Looking at Jiang Liu who was working with his big hands behind his back, thinking of this old saying, seeing the Westinghouse getting cleaner little by little, this beauty in his heart.

He was happy, but Dougen on one side saw this situation and just wanted to go up and kick them.Did you say you did this?If you let yourself do the work, you are better off, and you have found a group of people to help.The problem is that all the people who come and go back and forth walk from the outhouse, always fighting with the lady who is steaming bean buns.There was no other way, the two had no choice but to turn off the fire in the stove and stop steaming for now, let's talk about it tomorrow.

In this way, nothing can be done today.People in the twelfth lunar month are so busy, what a delay.The angry Dougen simply went out and got into the carriage, and went to Qipanshan to pick up the emperor.

By the time Dougen successfully picked up Zhang Huang and his wife, it was already noon the next day.Knowing that Emperor Zhang was coming, Xia Xiazi Han and Lao Jiang had been waiting in the yard early.

After the carriage entered the yard, the two hurried up to greet them, some of them took things, and they went into the house to let others go.Arriving at the completely new Westinghouse, the freshly pasted shed was bright and majestic. Even Dougenniang even emptied one of her own boxes and put it in the Westinghouse, ready for the Emperor and the others to put a change of clothes.

Seeing this, the emperor and his wife were naturally very satisfied.Everyone hurriedly helped the emperor and his wife, and after placing all the things they brought, the emperor, Lao Jiang, and Xia Xiazi Han went to Lao Jiang's house to drink water and chat. The emperor's daughter-in-law and Dougen Niang are two sisters.

The emperor's daughter-in-law held Dougenniang's hand and kept saying something sorry to her.The emperor's daughter-in-law was so polite, but it made the honest Dougen Niang a little embarrassed.But it passed quickly, because the embarrassment was covered up by the emperor's daughter-in-law with a few understatement words.In this way, the two sisters started chatting with each other.

At this time, the four families finally got together, and the dinner was prepared by Lao Jiang's family.Originally, Mrs. Dougen wanted to cook, but Lao Jiang said that this matter was naturally raised by their family, and he also told Mrs. Dougen not to cook at night, but to eat at home together.After eating, when everyone was chatting on the kang, Lao Jiang announced something in front of everyone, that is, let Jiang Liu and Dougen worship Zhang Huangshang as a boss.

Baiganlao is also called "Baiji", which is more common among the old people in the paddock.There are several names for Gan Lao, some are called "Godfather", "Godfather", "Godfather", and some are called "Baoye".

Most of the people who worship people as cadres are negotiated and decided in advance, and then choose a day to hold the ceremony.It is an adult who puts a bowl of water on the pot and asks the person who wants to worship to pour the water away, or pour the water on him (her).Then the adult leads the child to kowtow to him and change his words, and the relationship is considered to be forged.Adults call this "fighting in-laws" to show that it is different from children's in-laws.

Gan Lao needs to untie the belt he tied and fasten it for the child, or give a gift, and some even give the child another name.Until now, many rural children still have two names, one is given by their parents, and the other is given by a gangster, and some of the names given by the gangster are even louder than their real names.

In the paddock countryside, Baigan has another method.It is to worship some gods as cadres, such as Master Hu Xian, or Master Chang Xian and so on.This is usually because the child's physique was not good when he was young, and he was prone to troubles.The family prayed out of the idea of ​​keeping the child safe.This needs to be communicated in advance through Xiangtou, and then confessed.
