On the fifth day of the first month of May, the wind and the sun are beautiful, but it is a great weather, the annual dragon boat race in Shangrao County is held as scheduled, and the stands are temporarily set up outside the south city gate.

Early in the morning, both sides of the Xinjiang Wharf were full of people watching the dragon boat race, and the sound of drums and trumpets came from the river, which was very lively.

I heard that the rewards of this year's dragon boat race are very rich, not only the two Qin cha will be present to watch, but the prince of Ning Wang is also a huge amount of money to reward the top ten, it is said that the first place will receive 100 taels of silver.

Because of this, more than 50 teams have signed up for the dragon boat race this year, which is double that of previous years. These dragon boat teams are generally funded by large merchants in the city, for the purpose of advertising, in addition, a considerable number of villagers from villages near the county seat, naturally for rewards and fame.

At this time, Xu Jin, Xiao Nu'er, and Er Niu stood on the shore near the pier as spectators, all holding a string of rock sugar gourds in their hands.

The little slave shouted early in the morning that he wanted to go out of the city to watch the dragon boat race, and it happened that Xu Jin also wanted to see how the ancients raced dragon boats, so he agreed.

Anyway, there is no business, Xu Jin originally wanted Xiaowan to close the store, and then go out of the city to watch the dragon boat race together, but it is estimated that the two eldest brothers in the family will arrive in Shangrao County in the next few days, if the store is closed, they are afraid that they will not be able to find a place, so Xie Xiaowan insisted on staying at home and waiting.

Due to the continuous heavy rain in the previous two days, the river water at this time has risen a lot, and it is almost up the stone steps of the wharf, and the water is relatively turbulent.

At this time, dozens of large and small dragon boats were lined up on the river, and the athletes were shirtless, revealing their strong muscles, and shouting majestically with the beat of the drum.

At this time, a group of people came to the stands, it was a group of officials and gentry led by the prefect Lu Kang, and the two Qincha and Ning Wang Shizi were surrounded by a group of officials and sat in the middle of the stands.

"Why don't you start yet!" The little slave stretched his neck a little impatiently to look around, and the string of rock sugar gourds was almost finished.

"It should be almost, wait a little longer!"

Xu Jinzheng was talking, and suddenly felt that someone was patting him on the shoulder, and he quickly turned around to look, and couldn't help but be stunned.

I saw several oily-haired "scholars" standing behind him, and the one who patted his shoulder was covering his mouth and giggling, the voice was crisp and familiar.

"You ...... How did you run out! Xu Jin was a little surprised, these girly scholars were the three girls of the Fei family and Yahuan, and it was Fei Xiaoyu's little pepper who patted him on the shoulder.

At this time, Fei Ruyi, Fei Jixiang and Fei Xiaoyu, as well as their respective personal rings, are all dressed as scholars, but they have fine skin and tender meat, and they understand that people will be exposed at a glance, especially the eldest Fei Ruyi, who has a pretty face that is disgusting and happy, with bright eyes and bright teeth, and the curves on his chest that he doesn't know how to hide it.

The little slave naturally recognized these people, and said with a smile: "How many...... Fei Gongzi, you also come to see the dragon boat race! ”

Fei Xiaoyu said proudly: "Everyone can watch it, can't this son watch it!" ”

Xu Jin looked left and right, but didn't find Fei Maoxian and Fei Maozhong, he couldn't help frowning slightly, and asked, "Did Minxian and Minshou come out with you?" ”

Fei Ruyi's face was slightly blush, and he said a little embarrassed: "Young Master Xu, my brother is not with us, five ...... The fifth brother wanted to come to see the dragon boat race, but we couldn't resist her, so we had to accompany her. ”

"The water by the river is turbulent, and there are many people, so you better hurry back to the city." Xu Jin hurriedly said.

These few people are sneaking out at a glance, a few little girls who are delicate, and they have to dress up as men, isn't this a crime, what if you meet a gangster?

Fei Xiaoyu was suddenly unhappy, and pouted: "Xu Jin, forget it about your father at home, why do you still let you take care of it when you go outside, I didn't say hello to you if I knew it, I thought you were different from other men, but who knew that it was still the same, a man's behavior." Well, we will not mix with you, you see yours, I see ours. "Turn around and leave!

Xu Jin was suddenly speechless, daring to love that this little pepper was still a feminist, and said with a wry smile: "Okay, I'm not verbose, you can watch it here, and we'll go back to the city together after reading it!" ”

Xu Jinna dared to let these young ladies walk around, and follow him to take care of him.

"That's pretty much it!" Fei Xiaoyu turned her anger into joy at this time, reached out and pinched the little slave's pink face, and said with a smile: "Little slave, I haven't seen it for a few days and I'm beautiful again, where did I buy the rock sugar gourd?" ”

The little slave rolled his eyes, he hated others touching his face the most, and pointed to the vendor on the side of the road in the distance: "Over there, don't you have eyes to see!" ”

"Ouch, dare to lose my son's eyes!"

The little slave hurriedly flashed to Erniu's side and said, "Silly cow, someone is bullying me, you can watch it!" ”

Erniu scratched the back of his head, although he was naïve, he was not an idiot, these oily and powdery scholars looked like females, and said with a smile: "Little slave, your Erniu brother doesn't beat women!" ”

The little slave said: "Aunt Qian, you hit!" ”

Erniu retorted: "I didn't fight, Uncle Ten asked me to throw it out, but it's not a fight!" ”

The little slave pointed at Fei Xiaoyu: "Then you will lose her too!" ”

Fei Xiaoyu's nose was crooked, and he said fiercely: "Little slave, try it again, believe it or not, this son threw you into the river to feed the fish!" ”

Xu Jin couldn't help but have black lines on his head, and coughed lightly: "A few Fei Gongzi, you stand here for a while, and I'll buy you rock sugar gourds." After speaking, he went to the uncle who sold rock sugar gourds on the side of the road not far away.

"Hey, Childe, let's have two strings of rock sugar gourds, one string for a penny, very cheap!" When the uncle saw the business coming to the door, he immediately greeted him warmly.

"I've got all of your rock sugar gourd!" Xu Jin said directly.

Uncle Sugar Gourd was overjoyed and said happily: "Okay, I'll wrap it up for you!" ”

"No need, just give me eight, and the rest of the money will be paid!" Xu Jin smiled and said, "But it's troublesome for Uncle to go to the Fei Mansion in the north of the city for me to carry a message!" ”

Uncle Sugar Gourd was slightly stunned, the smile on his face disappeared, and he said tentatively: "What message does Childe want to make?" ”

"Just tell the porter that a few sons in the family are watching the dragon boat race at the south pier of the city!"

Uncle Sugar Gourd immediately regained his smile when he heard this, and just sent a message, which was not illegal, but it was easy, and he readily agreed.

Xu Jin gave thirty-six yuan, took eight sugar gourds, arched his hand, and said, "There is Uncle Lao!" With that, he turned around and walked back to the docks.

"Hehe, this is almost the same, Xu Jin, this son will forgive you!" Fei Xiaoyu smiled and took the sugar gourd handed by Xu Jin.

"Thank you, Master Xu!" The girls each divided a sugar gourd, and they all thanked each other, and the delicate voice immediately attracted the sideways eyes of the surroundings.

"Thank you!" Fei Ruyi took the rock sugar gourd handed by Xu Jin, her tender white face flushed, and she turned her face away before taking a bite.

Xu Jin gave the remaining two to Erniu and the little slave, these things are all sugar, and they are sticky to hold, Xu Jin really has no love for this.

At this time, more and more people gathered on the dock, although Fei Xiaoyu and the women were dressed as men, their handsome appearance really couldn't deceive people, and some ill-intentioned guys took advantage of the excuse to get close and try to rub oil.

"Yikes!" Fei Jixiang's maidservant suddenly screamed and jumped forward a few steps as if she had been bitten by a snake.

"Squire, what's wrong?" Fei Jixiang hurriedly asked.

The waiter was ashamed and angry, and pointed to a guy with a greasy face behind him and said, "He touched my ass!" ”

The lewd man's eyes widened, and he said sharply: "What do you mean, Lao Tzu has no dragon impotence, why do you touch a man's buttocks." ”

As soon as these words came out, the people around laughed, and their eyes were ambiguous, and anyone could see that Fei Xiaoyu and the others were females dressed as men.

"You...... Shame on you! The waiter was so angry that tears rolled in his eyes, even the little pepper Fei Xiaoyu changed his face, and the docile Fei Ruyi's face turned even whiter, and he regretted very much that he agreed to let the little sister go out of the city to see the dragon boat, and he didn't even bring a family with him.

Xu Jin's face sank, and he said lightly: "Erniu, beat him!" ”

Erniu was obedient to Uncle Shi, and immediately strode forward when he heard the words, and when the lewd man saw Erniu like an iron tower, his momentum suddenly weakened, and he said: "What do you want to do?" ”

"What's the matter, Uncle Ten asked me to beat you!" As soon as the two cows and five fingers were pinched, the big fist of the casserole was slapped on the man's face.

Boom......

The lewd man was smashed on the spot and flew out, nosebleeds and tears soared, and the people who laughed just now retreated in shock, this master directly ordered his subordinates to beat people, they must be either rich or expensive, and they can't afford to provoke them!

"What's going on?" Two officials in charge of maintaining order rushed over and shouted and asked.

"He beats people, he beats people!" The lewd man pointed at the two cows and screamed like a pig.

Xu Jin took a step forward and arched his hand: "Two poor brothers, I am Xu Jin of Xinjiang Academy, this person is a pickpocket, and his attempt to pickpocket our money just now was discovered, and I am angry and teach him a lesson." ”

The two yacha were on an errand in the county government, and naturally recognized Xu Jin, the head of the county test and the government test, plus their previous boss Ma Hengma caught the head, because of the abduction of Xu Jin's wife and brother, they were implicated by Du Cripple, and were later dismissed and investigated by the county lord.

These two yacha were very discerning, so they naturally didn't dare to offend and remove the crime, so without saying a word, they stepped forward and handcuffed the lewd man away.

"Alright, it's okay!" Fei Jixiang and the others comforted the weeping maid and waiter, and they all cast grateful glances at Xu Jin.

The movement here was a bit big, which naturally alarmed the officials and gentry in the stands, and Wang Shizi Ning recognized Xu Jin in the crowd at a glance, his face suddenly became gloomy, and he beckoned Mo Guan to his side, and whispered a few words.

Steward Mo's eyes flashed with a fierce color, nodded and turned away, and said secretly in his heart: "The surname Xu, you can only blame yourself for not being able to do anything about yourself, and you dare to go against Ning Wangfu, don't you like to write poems, today you will go down the river to find Qu Yuangong to write poems!" ”
