Heroes of the Sons and Daughters

Chapter 39 Incognito
This book follows the previous one, and it shows that Mr. An and the young master arrived at Chu's village, met with Deng Jiugong and his wife, and talked about the thirteenth sister who wanted to ride away alone to take revenge after burying her mother.He'an's and Deng's families have both received the kindness that Thirteen Sisters saved in the past, and they want to repay.Considering that the girl would commit suicide by committing suicide, it was inevitable that there would be some mistakes, and she wanted to keep him from this long trip.He also expected that the girl would be fierce-hearted, she would never turn back, and she would definitely not be able to keep him with a few words.Therefore, everyone carefully planned a series of tricks.

Now that the plan is in place, master an and young master live in Chu's house.The Chu family cleaned up a few small rooms in the east courtyard of the main house, and invited the master and son to live there.This house is a detached courtyard, which was originally the place where Chu Yiguan set up a couch for his guests.That night, Chu Yiguan was with the foreign minister, and he had nothing to say all night.

Mr. An had something on his mind. It was not yet dawn. When he woke up, he heard the bell of the Deyuan Temple on his pillow, chickens singing along the village, crows and sparrows in the forest, and grids to make the sky clear.Then I heard Deng Jiugong urging the farmer's long-term workers to get water and cook porridge, graze cattle and sheep, feed the animals, and clean the farmyard. Then I heard the sound of sweeping leaves, scolding calves, and oranges, singing in harmony with each other. , with the scenery of the ancient Taoyuan.The master and son also got up to wash up.Deng Jiugong came to sit with him, and master an also told about yesterday's harassment.Deng Jiugong said: "brother, we don't have to drink the porridge for breakfast. You can also have the boiled dumplings made for you by your niece. Let's eat early." The son wants millet noodles, steamed buns, and yellow rice noodles to bake cakes, and everyone will have a full meal.

After dinner, the sun had only just risen over the treetops. I had seen Sui Yuan'er rushing in, dragging his clothes and carrying his whip.The master asked: "There is no one on the road, what are you doing here again? Did your wife leave when you came?" Sui Yuan'er replied: "The slave wife and grandma have arrived at the door. It was only in the store last night. At the fourth watch, the reserve car was called inside, and the in-laws stopped and said, "It's early."

When the son heard about it, he quickly picked it up.The master also accompanied Deng Jiugong to welcome him to the village gate.Mrs. Chu and the aunt brought many women and girls to the front yard.When everyone saw Ms. Zhang from a distance, they were all surprised, and said, "Miss Thirteenth Sister, why did Mrs. An come with me?" The spirit is very different.

See you soon.The master met his wife, and as he walked, he asked, "Have you caught up with what I asked Hua Zhong to ask for yesterday?" The wife said, "Come on, I brought it here." Should it be like this?" The wife said: "It should be. It's just that I can make up for it!" The master said: "That's right. We have to do our best, and do our best." Deng Jiugong heard this. I can't figure it out, but the two of them are talking about family affairs, so how can they intervene and ask?I had no choice but to conjecture in my heart.

While talking, everyone walked through the front hall all the way to the main room.During this period, when Deng Jiugong met Mrs. An and Miss Zhang, it was natural that they should have some entertainment; when Mrs. An and Miss Zhang met Mrs. Chu, they should also have some intimacy; The child born to the official's ex-wife should naturally be adorned slightly; the daughter-in-law should also pay a visit to the continued aunt;However, at this time, Master An is busy talking about Thirteen Sisters, Mrs. An and Ms. Zhang are busy asking Thirteen Sisters, and those who listen to the book are busy listening to Thirteen Sisters. If you want to, you have to "build the plank road in the open, and keep the warehouse in the dark", cancel it with one stroke, and make it a "long if you have words, and short if you don't have words".

Mrs. An and Mrs. Zhang came here in meditation, but Mrs. Chu prepared a table of food lavishly. The wife was not good but he was kind, so he had to eat as much as he wanted.He also asked people to cook the white meat for those chariots, horses and people outside, so that the new noodles were hydrated and leaked.

In and out, up and down, booming, and eating a meal in a hurry, Mrs. Chu was very busy.After dinner, Mr. An asked his wife and daughter-in-law to wait only in the village. After he had seen the thirteenth sister, he sent someone to deliver the letter. .

The words are divided into two ends.Now the thirteenth sister Shan Biao in the book, since his mother passed away, it has been the fifth day, and there is only one day left, and the day after tomorrow, he will bury his mother, and he will travel far to do the big event of revenge.When I got up early this morning, I put the thin furniture into three boxes, and put all the furnishings, bedding, and even sporadic things in the cabinet. I put some heavy things, pickles in the jar, rice in the jar, The chickens and ducks, as well as the dozens of strings of money accumulated, were distributed to the gatekeeper, the farmer, and the women in Hejin Village who usually served his mother.He put his carry-on luggage under his hands again.After everything is done, I feel how clean and relieved the sea is dry and the rocks are rotten, and the clouds are clear, and I feel very happy in my chest.I had to sit still. When I saw Deng Jiugong walk in, he stood up and said with a smile, "Don't you say you're going to rest for a long time today? Why did you come so early?" Resting, just because I was thinking about the rope, and I was afraid that they would not make it right. Although we are not short of people here, they are all bad. Take care, girl, I'm sorry for you. So I'm going to take advantage of today to look at the arrangement at the village. But I went back yesterday and saw that they had already done it. I think, only today, tomorrow is a companion, these Neighbors from distant villages will all come to offer sacrifices, I'm afraid there will be no time. Now that the rope is ready, why don't we take advantage of it today to finish it, so that we don't have to be busy. Do you think so?" Thirteen sisters said : "It's all up to you old man, I have nothing more to say."

Just as I was talking, I saw Mrs. Chu also coming, followed by two old women and two stupid men, one carrying a bedroll and the other carrying a big burden.The girl looked at him and said, "What's the matter? I still don't know where the things are here. You have brought all these things here again." Mrs. Chu said, "I think there will be more people coming tomorrow. You have to return the salute in front of the spirit, and you can’t leave your body. Where are the people, return to the house, what’s wrong with people? There are only two days left. I know you’re going. We won’t see each other for a month or two. ? I also want to make out with you. So I brought my bedding and plan to stay here so as not to run around all day."

The girl said: "It's hard for you to think so long. It's just a mistake to go back to the house. If you don't believe me, you can see that I've been home all morning alone." Mrs. Chu saw that the whole room was full of people. After cleaning, all the boxes and cabinets were locked, only a few bedding pieces on the kang that were used at hand did not move, because he asked: "What are you busy with? You don't feel relieved to leave it to me after you leave." Where?" The girl said, "It's not that you don't worry." Pointing to the box, she said, "There are still a few pieces of my mother's clothes left here, and I can't bear to wear my mother's clothes, and I can't wear my color clothes for the time being. You can take all the waste. You keep a few pieces, give the rest to your aunts, and distribute the broken ones to the mothers and children in your family. The odds and ends are in these two tops. In the cabinet, you also asked someone to move it. It doesn’t matter, I gave it to the people who take care of and serve here, and they can be counted as serving my mother.”

Deng Jiugong heard and said: "Girl, you will come back in a few days. Don't you need these things when you come back? Just ask someone to watch here. Why wait?"

The thirteenth sister said: "No. For one thing, there are my shoes and feet here, so it is not easy to hand them over to them; besides, can I still live in this mountain alone when I come back? Naturally, I will go with your old man, then I'm short and want anything, are you afraid that your old man won't get it for me?" Deng Jiugong said: "That's it, you have to take some luggage with you."

Thirteenth sister pointed to the things in the kang and said: "Look, old man, that horse mattress, a small bundle roll, there are two or thirty taels of silver wrapped in it, and then there is that knife, that donkey, that is. My luggage is gone. What else do you want?" Deng Jiugong saw his sternness, and thought of Master An's words yesterday, he was really insightful, and secretly admired him.Still wanting to talk, Mrs. Chu was afraid that his father would show his flaws by nagging, so she stopped him and said, "You don't have to talk to him, you can do whatever he says. I can't figure out what to do with our little lady." It's over!" After hearing this, Thirteenth Sister happily handed over the key to Mrs. Chu to keep it.

While speaking, there was a commotion outside the door, it turned out that Chu Yiguan came with the rope.Seeing him enter the door, he shouted: "Old man, they are all here, where are you putting them?" Deng Jiugong said: "You put the big bar outside, and the shoulder bars, ropes, and cushions are all piled up in this yard. You rest After a while, let's get started." Chu Yiguan said: "What are you waiting for? It's a bad day, let's do it when we get home." Saying this, he went out and brought all those things in with him.The village women who had been there to help had brewed a large pot of tea and put it there.It has never been "good at martial arts", so Deng Jiugong and Chu Yiguan took off their hats, threw off their coats, put on their braids, tightened their waists on their short coats, and called four people to come in and tie the rope.Chu Yiguan takes care of the front, and Deng Jiugong takes care of the back.Among the four long-term workers, one was originally from the head of the gang, but because of his strength, he knew Deng Jiugong.Then he cast it on his estate.I just listen to what he said about being wear-resistant, playing the chassis, tying the waist, spreading the elephant's nose, sitting on the bull, and talking jargon.He and his son-in-law also helped.Thirteenth Sister just stood aside and chatted with Mrs. Chu, looking at the eloquence, showing no trace of sadness or nostalgia.

But Deng Jiugong and Chu Yiguan were busy there with four workers who were coiling the ropes, and those who were threading the bars.I saw a farmer come in, looked at Chu Yiguan and said, "Young master, someone outside is talking to you." The three of his father and son knew that it was Master An who had arrived.I saw Chu Yiguan clutching the rope with one hand and stepping on the bar with the other. He raised his head and said to the farmer: "Someone came to talk to me. Didn't you see what I was doing with my hands? Tell him to come in if you have anything to say." No more!" The farmer said: "It's not from this village." Chu Yiguan said: "Look at this stubborn man, since he is from that village, he is from our east and west villages. I’ve never been in this yard before!” The farmer shook his head and said, “Hey, it’s not from our village, it’s from a long way.” Chu Yiguan said, “Who came from a long way away?” Zhuang Ke said: "Don't you know him? I asked him his name, and he said that you will know it when you see him often. He also asked our old man." Chu Yiguan deliberately tilted his head and frowned, thinking: "Who is this? How did he find this place again?" The farmer said: "Who knows." Chu Yiguan lowered his head and asked again: "What kind of person do you think?" The farmer said Said: "I look at it, and I'm afraid it's also the man who is traveling with us. I see that he is also carrying a slingshot like the old man's."

Chu Yiguan pretended to be suspicious again and said: "Stop, there is no such a slingshot in the company." Then, across the spiritual seat, he called Deng Jiugong's voice.

Now in the book, let's press Chu Yiguan's side, and then talk about Deng Jiugong.But he said that he stood behind the coffin and watched the two long-term workers at work. The more Chu Yiguan talked with others here, the more noisy he was.After a while, the rope was loose again, and the button was bent around the back again, and he went up to grab the rope and the button, smashed and smashed with his hands, kicked and kicked with his feet, and said in his mouth He said: "It's hard for you to go after the experts, after all, what a bad idea!" Chu Yiguan only paid attention to the half-day conversation with the dealer, but he finally didn't hear it.It wasn't until Chu Yiguan called him that he raised his head and asked, "Are you doing it?" Chu Yiguan said, "Does your old man know that there is a slingshot among our Taoists?" He raised his head and thought After thinking for a while, he said, "Yes, the one who walks outside the west entrance is teaching Ma San's father, he uses a slingshot. What do you think of now, asking this question?"

Chu Yiguan said: "Didn't you hear it, old man?" Deng Jiugong said: "I only care about work. Who heard what you said." He said: "Isn't Ma San's father here?" Because he asked the farmer, "How old is this man?"

Deng Jiugong said: "That's wrong. Ma San's father is a round younger than me, he is a cow, and he is 71 this year; besides, he has been off the horse for two or three years, and I have never seen him bring a book. People don't know if it's there or not!" Then he yelled at the worker, "Your suit is so tight, how can you wear it on your shoulders when you come back?" And he didn't answer with Chu Yiguan again.

In the book, Deng Jiugong's side is pressed again, and the thirteen younger sisters are singled out.He listened blankly for a long time, then rolled his eyes, as if something moved his mind.Lie Gong, there is no better saying than the old saying, "When a man who has no heart speaks, he is afraid that someone with a heart will listen." What's more, two people who have a heart pretending to be a heartless person answer and talk to each other, and the obedient person next to him is actually a person with a heart. , I heard a word in my heart from nowhere, with how smart he is, is there anyone who doesn't fall into the trap?So at first the girl listened to what Deng Jiugong, Chu Yiguan and the farmer were talking about, but she didn't pay attention to it, but she kept her two small eyes open and listened to the commotion without staring.When Chu Yiguan asked about the sentence with the slingshot on his back, Deng Jiugong asked another sentence that the man with the slingshot was about 50 years old, which hit his heart.Because he said to Deng Jiugong, "master, you always listen. Isn't that what you said?" Deng Jiugong pretended to be dumbfounded again, and said, "that's what?"

The girl said: "Look, you are a great old man, but it's really obscure! What did you say when I gave you the inkstone the day before yesterday?" Deng Jiugong said: "Yes! If it really is This incident is considered to be a coincidence. On the one hand, that thing is a treasure heirloom of your family. As for me, I don’t go out now. It’s useless for me to keep him after you leave. Instead, you brought it with you on this long journey. , It’s a good guy. It’s just this inkstone, but I brought back 28 red willow trees and put it away in Xizhuang’er the day before yesterday. Now people hand over their things to us, but we can’t hand over their things for a while. How about it?" Mrs. Chu said aside: "It's not worth anything, tell his brother-in-law to go out to meet that person, tell him to leave the slingshot, let him live in our Dongzhuang for two days, and wait for your old man to finish. What's wrong with him going to Xizhuang'er to get the inkstone for him? " Thirteenth sister said first: "It makes sense." Deng Jiugong also joined Chu Yiguan and said: "That's the only way. Young master, you I went to see him and left the bow, I got impatient and went out." Chu Yiguan left the business here and was busy putting on his clothes and hat.The girl smiled and said, "Brother Yi, you don't need to dress up all the time. You just go and see him, even if you recognize him at the first sight, you are still a relative of yours! You take the bow, but don't let him in." Chu Yi The official said: "My relatives? Where do I come from such a family of relatives?" Then he dressed and went out to meet the man.

Wait, where did this girl's words come from?When he was saying goodbye to Mr. An and Zhang Jinfeng Liulin that day, it was said that Mr. Ding An had arrived in Huai'an. After his grandpa Hua Zhong arrived, he would send Hua Zhong to deliver the slingshot, find Chu Yiguan, and turn to Deng Jiugong to get the inkstone.This girl also knew that Hua Zhong and Chu Yiguan's ex-wife were direct brothers and sisters, and now I heard that the person who gave the slingshot was an old man in his mid-century, so who could it be?Hence the joke.I thought to myself, I am the only one who understands this, you are all in Tanzi Hutong!
