Water Margin: Spit on Lin Chong at the beginning!

If in the past, Yu Laosan, who was in charge of the Yu family’s old shop, would have already accepted the business and went home to warm up and hug his mother-in-law.

This year is approaching the end of the New Year, but two distinguished guests live in the shop, a master and a servant, a man and a woman, and one upper room, which lasted for 37 days.

There is no way to open an inn, let alone a rare long-term guest. Yu Laosan sent Xiao Er and Ran Tang home, took his mother-in-law over, and accompanied the distinguished guests in the store to celebrate the New Year.

This distinguished guest is also good to entertain. That young official surnamed Dong, although he was tall and powerful, he was harmless to humans and animals, excellent at talking, and had extensive knowledge in the north and south.

Another young maid, at first glance, was trained by a large family, meek and well-behaved, and had a life in her eyes.

Except for a little later on the first day, making the bed and washing clothes, cooking soup and cooking, it was all handled by the maid Zhang Luo, and her own mother-in-law became the one who started.

Yu Laosan himself couldn’t help but envy, I don’t know what Dong Guanren’s path is, but he has such a blessing at a young age.

In addition to these two, it is the martial artist Erlang who often comes over to eat wine and talk with the officials and the mountains. Sometimes I see myself idle, and I also pull to eat a few bowls.

Not to mention, Takejiro is a well-known unruly figure in the neighborhood, the boss of the sky and his second oldest.

Now he is quite respectful of this Dong official, as long as the big and small things are said by the official man, Erlang has never said a second word.

Saying that, it was the twenty-seventh of the lunar month, and Wu Song still came.

As usual, the shop cuts two plates of meat, scalds three tan wines, and stir-fry a few vegetables and vegetables.

Wu Song looked left and right and shouted: “The treasurer, it’s close to the New Year, it’s easy to see an outsider in the city, where is there still someone living in your shop?” Don’t close the stall early, come and eat! ”

In winter, the days and nights are long, and Yu Laosan saw that the sun had gradually moved west, knowing that there were no more guests coming to the door, he couldn’t help sighing, came out to hang a “closed” signboard, and went to eat wine.

Today is a little special, Yu Lao San just sat down before he had time to take the bowl and lift it, and suddenly there was a sound of banging on the door outside: “The store is open, open the door!” ”

Yu accused the treasurer of the crime and hurriedly came over to open the door of the store.

There were three people standing outside, each leading a short horse, the leader of which was the leader, and asked with a smile: “Shopkeeper, can Dong Dutou and Wudutou be in the store?” ”

Yu Laosan was a little confused: “All heads? Officer, I don’t have anything in this shop…”

“Ah, no. It’s two officials surnamed Dong and Wu who eat wine here, so I don’t know if it’s what you’re looking for. ”

The smile of the visitor was even worse: “That plan can’t be wrong.” Come, quickly unload the things. ”

Only then did Yu Lao San see that there was a gift box on each of the two horse saddles behind.

The leader commanded, the third man also came to take the handle, the weight of the gift box was not light, and moved into the store together.

There is a total of one table and two guests, which also saves the introduction of Yu Laosan.

The person who came came to him in three steps and two steps, and sang a big chant firmly: “The villain Yan Si, entrusted by the head of the Ximen Society, specially came to pay New Year’s greetings to Dong Dutou and Wudutou.” I wish both of you a happy birthday and a high rise! ”

Saying that, he held two gift sheets in his hands and offered them respectfully.

Dong Chao frowned, reached out and took the gift list, and it was written clearly: “Five pairs of chicken, twenty catties of bacon, ten pots of Tu Su wine, and two taels of silver bills.”

Ximen Qing, the head of the Yanggu County Chamber of Commerce, would like to lead 187 merchants of all sizes in Yanggu, and wish Dong Chenchao a safe and healthy New Year! ”

At this time, Wu Song also finished reading his share, laughed, and wanted to throw the gift list out. But he saw that Dong Chao just closed the list and gently put it aside.

Erlang did not move lightly, wondering in his heart: Brother, is this ready to accept the things?

Dong Chao was a little dignified in his heart.

This New Year’s gift is neither light nor heavy, and it is not early or late when it is sent, and the momentum created is not big or small; It has the power of attaching feelings and the effect of throwing stones to ask for directions, which can be said to be extremely old-fashioned.

Thinking that he and Wu Song had not even entered the gate of Yanggu County, Ximen Qing could know so accurately.

It can be seen from this that this person is not easy to deal with!

Then he looked at Yan Si, eight feet long, his face was slightly yellow, and he looked only in his early twenties, but he showed a shrewd and capable spirit.

Dong Chao asked quietly, “Is Butler Yan?” It’s hard all the way, a glass of wine, sit down and talk. ”

Yan Si sat on the chair with half of his butt, owed to take the tea bowl handed by the third elder, took a sip carefully, and replied respectfully: “Back to the capital, the villain Yan Si, running errands in the mansion of the big official, he can’t be called a housekeeper.” ”

Dong Chao also didn’t listen to Yan Si’s explanation, and asked self-consciously, “I wonder how Steward Yan found here?” ”

Yan Si replied, “The younger one first arrived at Wudu Tou’s house, and only after listening to the guidance of Brother Zun came to find it, and the two of them were here together.” ”

Dong Chao obviously wanted to ask Ximen Qing how he knew that the two of them had done both, but Yan Si avoided the importance and dodged lightly.

Dong Chao also stopped pursuing, picked out a silver bill and weighed it, and asked casually: “Are these things available to the county officials, or are they only for our brothers?” ”

Yan Si was slightly stunned and replied, “Back to the capital, it is rare to have the trust of the great officials of Ximen, and all the adults are handled by villains.” It’s just a New Year’s ceremony, and it’s nothing. ”

Dong Chao’s words were actually out of line, and it was rare that Yan Si answered seamlessly.

Throwing the silver bill back to the gift plate, Dong Chao greeted: “A few have worked hard all the way.” Since you have caught up, let’s eat a bowl of wine together, rest and walk again. ”

Yan Si naturally didn’t really take a seat, and said: “Thank you Dutou, the little one will go back overnight, so I won’t disturb Dutou Yaxing.” ”

Yan Bi said some auspicious words again, took his leave repeatedly, and led several of his men to retreat.
