Chapter 167: Monkey Play

The dog head took his mother's hand and looked at the sugar gourd seller not far away, and the red sugar gourd was inserted on the grass hill he carried, which was very tempting. I heard that it was made of sugar, which should be very sweet, but unfortunately I haven't eaten it. Today, Daddy went to sell goods, exchanged money and promised to give himself delicious food. I don't know if he will buy himself a string of sugar gourds. In the past, Daddy Meng wouldn't buy it, but Daddy probably would.

Han Yueniang sat under the shed and picked up a green plum to eat from time to time. Recently, I always like to eat sour, and I don't know if I'm pregnant again.

Thirteen Lang was in front, squatting on the ground, watching with great interest a man in front of him playing monkey. The man didn't know how to tame, and a group of monkeys would hold wooden knives and guns for a while, pretending to be marching. For a while, he put on a robe like singing. Rubbing a few heels, he will pretend to be a pedestrian and ask for money with a plate.

These should all be in the Goolan Washer, and the camp and field affairs yamen have not been built here, so there are people performing on the street. Gradually, such a place was formed in the open area in the center of the street, and people came every once in a while to play some tricks and ask for some reward. The flow of people gathered, and there were vendors selling things through the base, selling this food. In the teahouse next to it, many people sat there to watch, and when the business was good, the shopkeeper of the teahouse would buy some fruit for the showman to eat.

He Da carried the burden and walked to the center of the street dejectedly, seeing his wife and son watching the monkey show there, he couldn't help but stop and sighed slightly. I finally came to the town and said that I would buy them some food and new clothes. As a result, the goods were not sold, and I don't know how to speak.

Just when He Da was hesitating, He Sanlang and a few companions turned around from the side of the street, saw He Da, and hurriedly shouted: "Brother He, are you coming to the town to sell goods today?" I happened to meet it, and I sent a message to my father when I went back. ”

Seeing a few people coming, He Da put down his burden and said, "Yes, I'm here to sell goods today." The third brother is resting today? ”

He Sanlang said: "Today is a day off, I came out to hang out with a few of my teammates, and I happened to see my brother. ”

The battalion army will teach and train for a few days, usually a month. Those who are particularly outstanding in them will be selected to form a separate army, and they will be in the barracks for half of the year, which can be regarded as a semi-standing army. This time He Da was supposed to come, because his wife came back, He Sanlang took his place and asked him to accompany his wife and children at home.

When He Da's wife heard the order, she turned her head to see He Da standing there, and hurriedly pulled the dog's head and walked over.

Looking at the burden on the ground, the goods inside were still out of the house, and He's wife asked softly, "What, haven't you sold it yet?" ”

He Da sighed: "The person who received the goods was changed from Ruan Yuanwai to Shi Yuanwai, and the new rules were set, and the goods were received only in 135, which is not a coincidence today." Ben said to buy you some food and make new clothes, so I have to wait for the next time. ”

Hearing this, the dog head couldn't help but turn around to look at the sugar gourd next to him and bite his fingers.

He Sanlang saw it on the side and said, "My brother is so busy that he doesn't have a little spare time on weekdays, so he finally came once, how can he go back empty-handed!" ”

After speaking, he said to his companion beside him: "How much money did you bring?" Take it out and give it to my brother to use first, and I will borrow it from you, and I will return it when I go back. ”

A few people came out to hang out, but they didn't bring much money, so they took it out and made up a bunch, only more than seventy yuan. He Sanlang counted a bunch and gave it to He Da: "Brother will use it first, buy some food for my sister-in-law and nephew, and I can't come for nothing." I don't have enough money on my body, so I can only do it again next time. ”

Seeing that the dog head kept looking at the sugar gourd over there, He Sanlang stuffed a few pennies in his hand and said, "Go buy a stick, eat and walk." ”

The dog head took the money, looked at Daddy, and then looked at Mom, saw that they nodded, and took the money and went quickly.

The dog head ran away, and He Saburo said: "Brother, in the past, Ruan Yuanwai was there, no matter what goods he had, he would receive them as he came, why did he change?" ”

He Dalian shook his head repeatedly: "Now that the historian has changed his family, the junior officer is in charge of this matter." That man's temperament, who only cares about his own happiness, where will he think about others? Also, I used to be a guest in his family, and I joined the camp to do business, and he always held a grudge. Whether this business can be done in the future is difficult to say. He wanted to ruin my business, and when I told the yamen to sue him, he was not afraid, saying that he didn't even know which yamen was in charge. ”

He Sanlang said: "I have a brother who is familiar with each other, and now he is working in the Yamen, and I have heard him mention this matter. In the past, when you received the goods, you sold them to the farms, and everything went well. Now it's different, it's sold to Fancheng Shopping Mall under the Yamen of Changping Division. There is no one in the Yamen of Changping Division here, so it is entrusted to some outsiders who open shops. I think it's because of this that Shi Xiaoren said so. ”

How did He Da know what these yamen were in charge of, and frowned and said: "In this way, as long as Shi Xiaoyuan says a word, I can't do this business?" Although I don't make much money, I'm familiar with the road, and it's a pity not to do it. ”

He Saburo thought for a while and said, "It's better to do this, let's go find the person who arranged for you to do this before." Although he is a man who works in the fields, he will not be able to go to the Changping Division and not say a word to you. ”

He Da smiled bitterly: "So what? As long as the historian receives the goods, I can't do this business after all. ”

He Sanlang also had no choice, and said, "There are two kinds of people in the yamen now. One is those of us who come from the camp and the other are local wealthy families. If the camp is in charge, I will always have some affection for it, and the local people-"

Speaking of this, He Saburo shook his head. Although his father He Daocheng's official position is not high, because of his age, many people in the army sell his face. Ordinary middle and lower-level officials, He Sanlang can climb up to friendship. The newly recruited local officials no one paid attention to him.

The dog head bought a sugar gourd and stood in the crowd to watch the monkey show. I bit one in my mouth, the sweet feeling, slightly sour, I just feel that I have never been so happy. A little monkey draped in a robe, wore a crooked head, carried a plate, and swayed around to collect money. The dog looked at the monkey and hesitated, then took out a piece of money and threw it into the monkey's plate.

The people around to watch the monkey show are used to it, and no one gives money at this time. Unless the monkey show starts to pack up his things and pretend to leave, the people who watch the show will giggle and throw money to keep it. The dog's head threw out a piece of money, and with a clang, many people looked at him.

When the monkey show saw it, he said loudly: "Ladies and gentlemen, the small ones go through the state and county, and it is not easy to earn some food and clothing, so please give a reward." Seeing a child give out all the money for snacks, why should you care about a few dollars! ”

Thirteen Lang looked at the dog's head, shook his head and smiled: "This kid is a little stupid, it's too early to give money." ”

Seeing that everyone still didn't pay for the monkey show, the monkey with the plate stepped forward, twisted and pinched the dog's head and saluted, teasing in every way. This is a means of pleading, on the one hand, flattering the person who gives the money, and on the other hand, making others impatient and taking out the money.

I didn't want the monkey to salute the dog head a few times, and suddenly threw the plate and snatched the sugar gourd in the dog head's hand. flew to a corner far away from the master, bit a few sugar gourds, thought it was too sweet, and threw them on the ground. When the other monkeys saw it, they rushed up to grab it.

There was chaos in the venue, playing monkey ground while pulling the rope violently, while striking the gong in his hand, and making threatening words. Several monkeys were accustomed to seeing this scene, jumping up and down to grab sugar gourds to eat, and dodging the whip in the hands of their masters.

Everyone watched and laughed together. Watching a monkey show, what I want to see most is when the owner is out of control, which is much more interesting than monkey play.

The dog head was stunned for a while, and when he reacted, his sugar gourd had been eaten by several monkeys, and only a bamboo stick remained. Looking at the chaotic scene, the dog head was at a loss and cried out.

The monkey playfully annoyed: "This child is still crying, if it weren't for you, how would these animals be in chaos!" ”

The dog head snorted and said: "My father didn't get any money today, he borrowed a few pennies to buy me food, and you robbed it!" I've grown so big, the first time I ate these things, I ate a little and it was gone! ”

The more he talked, the more sad he became, and he couldn't help but sit on the ground, his eyes full of tears, and he didn't move.
