The Famous Detective of the Red Mansions
Chapter 404: Pleasing
The sky is bright.
Hong Jiu squatted in the ditch near Shanxi Alley. Regardless of whether the stream flowing through thousands of households was dirty or not, he stretched his arms and scooped them with a broken crock pot, scrubbing from head to toe.
The straight skin was about to break, and the green stream was again reflected, and the messy hair was gathered up neatly. He felt that he was already a dog, and he straightened his waist with satisfaction.
Of course, this was only his satisfaction. In fact, the sloppy clothes and tattered shirts, even no matter how much he scrubbed, couldn't get rid of his identity as a ‘beggar’.
That's right, Hong Jiu is a beggar, and one of the most famous beggars near Shanxi Alley.
The reason why he can become a ‘famous beggar’ is because he is obviously more lazy than others, relying on the clever mouth that can speak, he can always have a good harvest, and his life is a hundred times more moisturizing than others.
"Brother Nine, Brother Nine!"
At this moment, two little beggars rushed over as if flying, and before they rushed to the front, one of them, fourteen or five years old, held up a broken bowl covered with wooden boards in his arms, and said triumphantly: "Brother Nine , Listen to this voice, it's properly festive!"
"Caught it?!"
Hong Jiu was also overjoyed when he heard the words, strode to meet the two of them, staring at the broken bowl with scorching eyes, as if looking at a cornucopia.
"Of course! Brother, I shot, can I still have a run?
The little beggar flaunted his mouth, carefully opened a gap, and saw a magpie poking its head out of the bowl, shouting ‘scum, scum’ endlessly.
"With it, we will work together!"
Hong Jiu laughed, stretched out his hand to grab the magpie out of the bowl, tied it with a straw rope and held it in his arms, raising his hand and saying, "Walk, Brother Nine will lead you to please!"
"Lovely and go~!"
The two little beggars were all cheering, and followed Hong Jiu through the streets and alleys, to the door of an inconspicuous small courtyard.
Hong Jiu stopped, made a silent gesture, and then touched the flowered magpie in his arms, stroking Lingyu, and muttered: "Good man, you have to work hard today, otherwise If Brother Nine can't get lucky money, he can only use you to make sacrifices."
While they were talking, the two little beggars were already squatting side by side in the corner of the wall. Hong Jiu was not welcome, stepped on their shoulders and climbed to the top of the wall, placing the magpie on the wall, and pressing the rope tied to the magpie under the tiles. .
After setting up this mechanism, he leaned on the wall and looked inside again. Seeing a few double happiness on the window of the inner room, he jumped down with joy and said with a smile: "Second son, you really belong to you. Sure enough, we married today!"
The two sons rubbed their shoulders and triumphantly said: "That's not it, I heard this old mother say with my own ears, can there be fakes?!"
The little beggar next to him also clamored to show his merits: "What are you doing? If I hadn’t found out that this house had two beautiful sisters hidden first, and some officials would come to the door from time to time, you would come here to listen. news?"
"But you didn't mean to say that it was the'outside house'. If it weren't for me to understand, that sister is a concubine to be married, wouldn't you miss it..."
"All right!"
Seeing the two people quarreling, Hong Jiu yelled impatiently: "This magpie hasn't screamed, but you two scumbags have an endless quarrel!"
The two little beggars quickly stopped talking.
But he said that after a long while, I listened to the scum on the wall, and the voice was quick and loud.
Hong Jiu's eyes lit up as well, and he hurriedly gestured to let the two little beggars avoid him, and then took out the bamboo board from his arms, and waited for the magpie to babble a few times before leaning in front of the door. Chi Chi Chi' hit the bamboo board and sang the lotus drop:
"My bamboo board is smashed, and I praised this family of goodness. To say that this house is not simple, there has been a magpie called Chacha long ago. This magpie has a mouth. Good things must happen!"
The circumflex he sang here was faltering, and a woman inside heard the movement, so she opened the door and looked at it through a gap, but saw a fair-faced beggar standing outside, and couldn't help but wonder: "You, Hana, really don’t know what happened. Are you here to beg?"
Hong Jiu slumped his shoulders down, smiling and slanting flatteringly and sang: "The magpie branch is called chap. It must be the nobles who want to make a fortune. It should be early rather than later, and Daoxi has to be early!"
This was originally a day of great rejoicing for this family, and Hong Jiu was full of auspicious words. The woman was not too hard to drive him away. She was wondering whether to give away some leftovers and rice. Suddenly someone inside asked: "Mother Wu, who is here?"
Then Mother Wu hurriedly said: "Ma'am, I'm a beggar. She said that she heard a magpie call in our house and was rushing to congratulate our family."
While talking, a well-groomed middle-aged woman came out inside. She looked at Hong Jiu in surprise. Before she could even speak, Hong Jiu sang beamingly: "Seeing this room is divided between the left and right, walk out from inside. A blessed person, the sky is full, and the longevity is less than the end; the earth and the pavilion are round, and the riches and glory can be enjoyed endlessly and endlessly!"
The lady listened to him so sweet, she couldn't help but laughed out loud, catching up with her getting her wish today, and finally married her daughter to a wealthy family, so she went back to the house for an unprecedented time, took a couple of pieces of silver, and threw it to Hong. Nine Dao: "For these auspicious words, reward you!"
Hong Jiu took the silver in his hand, couldn't help but smile, knelt on the ground with a thud, and said crisply: "Mrs. Xie rewards! If you are going to do business, designate a full warehouse of gold and silver; if you marry a child, designate a Tian Ding import! "
The latter words were right about the wife’s thoughts, so she smiled: "What a sweet mouth, Madam Wu, I also reward him with the half pot of chicken soup left in our house yesterday, and give him some more. A bun with white flour!"
Having said that, he went back to the courtyard on his own.
"Mrs. Xie rewards, Mrs. Xie rewards!"
Hong Jiu banged his heads with joy, holding the broken clay pot, waiting for the woman to give away half a pot of chicken soup, and a few large white steamed buns with cinnabar, which was a great gratitude.
"Brother Nine, we really sent it this time!"
When Ma Wu returned to the courtyard, the two little beggars leaned forward happily, staring at the clay pot of chicken soup with bright eyes, and the saliva couldn't stop dripping down.
"Look at how good you two are!"
Hong Jiuyi glared, and raised his hand vigorously: "Go, go back to the temple, tell the girl to warm up the chicken soup, let's start the meat!"
The two little beggars yelled for joy and were just about to leave Hong Jiu surrounded by Hong Jiu, but then Hong Jiu suddenly stopped, looked back at the corner of the wall, and said: "Wait first, since that Queer helped us, we can Can’t help but..."
"Hongjiu!"
Before Hong Jiu could finish speaking, someone suddenly snorted coldly in the slanting downwards. Hong Jiu followed his reputation, but suddenly four beggars flashed out in the alley in front of him, the head of the man with a big waist and a wooden stick. Half of the left ear is missing.
This person is not another, but he is the deaf boss of the most powerful beggar near Shanxi Alley!
Unlucky!
Why is it blocked by this guy? !
Hong Jiu secretly cursed bad luck, while winking at the two little beggars secretly, he smiled happily: "Oh, hey, isn't this the deaf boss? What brought you here?!"
As he said, he seemed to be greeted, but led the two little beggars to turn around and ran away!
Just after running two steps, Hong Jiu found that there were five other beggars who were standing behind him, staring at him.
Seeing the front and back flanks, Hong Jiu knew that he was doomed to escape, so he turned his head back, and bachelor sent the chicken soup buns forward, and said: "Boss of the deaf, Hong Jiu, I have accepted the plant. You take it, brother, I honor you!"
The deaf boss sneered, and said with disdain: "Ms. Shao Te was sloppy with Lao Tzu, what did you get when I didn't see the silver?"
After a pause, he sneered again: "I don't have enough money to find you today. It's not for any money, but to set rules for you to let you know who owns this Shanxi Alley!"
As he said, he raised the mallet in his hand and said, "Brothers, give this grandson some color!"
Under this order, the nine beggars immediately double-teamed and surrounded Hong Jiu and the others, but they saw sticks raining, chicken soup flying around, and several buns rolling back and forth on the ground...
Although Hong Jiu's mouth is sharp and hearty, his body is notoriously thin. One-on-one is not an opponent, let alone the other party bullying more?
He was beaten to the ground in an instant, but he just protected the two little beggars, gritted his teeth and said nothing!
"okay!"
The deaf boss saw that he was about to fight, so he called to stop his men, and Maoyao snatched the broken silver from Hong Jiu's arms, and then said triumphantly: "Grand Thief~ I will teach you a good boy today. If you get the money, remember to send it to you deaf lord. I don’t want all of it from you. It’s only two to eight!
As he said, he stepped on Hong Jiu’s spine again, lowered his head and sneered, “If you don’t want to give a confession to your master, that’s fine. If you find it once, the master will break one of your fingers, and wait until all ten fingers are broken. If it’s done, it’s abolishing your dog's paws that can steal fishy!"
After speaking, seeing Long Jiu's head bloodied on the two little beggars, he still didn't say a word, and the deaf boss couldn't help but get annoyed again.
Winking a wink, someone immediately stepped forward and fixed Hong Jiu's left hand to the ground.
The deaf boss lifted the mallet in his hand and grinned and said, "Even if your kid broke the rules for the first time today, the Lord will leave you a mark and a long memory!"
The two little beggars started crying in fright, and begged sharply: "The deaf boss is kind, let's forgive our nine brothers this time!"
"Bah~!"
The deaf boss spit on Hong Jiu in disdain, cursing, "What is he? What dare to call Brother Jiu in front of me?! Just rush to this, I have to leave him a mark!"
Having said that, after rounding the stick, he was about to hit Hong Jiu's tail finger!
Wow~
At this moment, Ma Wu suddenly pushed the door out. Seeing a mess outside, Hong Jiu was pressed to the ground again, and hurriedly shouted, "What are you doing, what are you doing? Let go of that person!"
If you change to a normal beggar and be reprimanded in such a way, I am afraid that I will be timid.
Who knows that the deaf boss is arrogant and tight. He turned his head and pointed at Ma Wu with a stick and cursed: "Old godly woman, whose crotch is not tightly fastened and leaked your old thing?!"
When the few beggars around him heard the words, they all burst into laughter.
Seeing that they were crowded and powerful, Wu Ma shrank subconsciously. UU reading www.uukanshu.com immediately remembered something. She straightened her back and jumped out, crouching and cursing, "That's not good." Long-eyed dog thing! My second lady is going to be married to the grandson of the "successful" family today, to disturb the happy event of the day, carefully Master Sun has taken your skin off!"
As soon as the deaf boss heard the words "God Judgment Lord Sun", even if he weakened his spine, he didn't dare to yell any more.
His subordinates were reluctant to bear the trophies on the ground. You fought for me to pick up steamed buns and chicken, and then Sa Yazi followed.
At this time, Hong Jiu also got up with the support of the two younger brothers, and said to Ma Wu: "Auntie's kindness, Hong Jiu has no teeth to remember."
"It sounds like someone who has read a book, but why must he be a flower child?"
Wu Ma mumbled, seeing his bloodshed, she couldn't bear it after all, so she turned back and took a few steamed buns, and sighed: "The good chicken broth has been ruined, and now only these steamed buns are given to me. You guys."
Hong Jiu was thankful again. When Wu Ma turned back to the courtyard, he was not in a hurry to leave. Instead, he gritted his teeth and climbed to the wall, released the magpie, and then limped. .
