Volume 1 Dali Fengyun 53 A little trick to lure the snake out of the hole, and the gift of ingenious things is unknown for unknown reasons
Speechless all the way, Xiao Yi and the three of them followed closely behind Sweetheart, for fear that he would not be able to think about it and do something stupid. Sweetheart's pace is steady, but it seems that nothing has happened, and he is used to it. Sweetheart suddenly stopped, turned to look at the three of them,
"What are you doing...... I'm fine, it's okay! I've taken hydrangeas a few times before, and I've made a lot of money!"
Sweetheart smiled a little treacherously, and the three of Xiao Yi looked at him like this, thinking that it should be no big deal. Relieved, Bai Qing asked cautiously,
"Isn't this throwing hydrangea the destiny of heaven, why can you still regret it?
Sweetheart smiled,
"Well, I'll have to take my time. It's so hot, let's find a small teahouse to have a cup of tea, let me talk slowly. After drinking tea and wandering around, it's time to go back. ”
Sweetheart Finger is in a small teahouse on the side of the street, there is a small table on it, and the four of them step forward to sit on one side. Xiao Yi and the three of them were not interested in this tea, so they took a sip casually and listened to the sweetheart with their chins propped up. Sweetheart took a big sip and said slowly,
"It seems to have started a few days ago, and this hydrangea has attracted a lot of people. Of course, not only the unmarried man and woman, but also many married young people, the elderly and children will also come to join in the fun. By the way, the person in this group is the Wang family who received our wine. This Wang family came up with a powerful trick. Every time this lotus festival, such a hydrangea throwing activity is held. This unmarried woman can participate as long as she spends some money, and this man is also of any age, as long as he is a man. ”
Sweetheart smacked tea and continued,
"If this hydrangea hits Ruyi Langjun, it is naturally good, and the Wang family will also send a congratulatory gift to congratulate the newlyweds on their marriage. But if the woman is unwilling, then she will have to pay two silver taels to terminate the contract, and the man will also get a small amount of condolence money, but the big head still let the Wang family earn it. If you catch the hydrangea, whether or not someone else shoehorns it into you, as long as the lady approves it, then it is considered yours. If you don't want to marry the young lady, you can pay for it obediently, and the young lady's side can also get part of the compensation. Also, if the man is married and the lady does not agree, the man will have to pay more, so not everyone can marry this house again. There will be ten young ladies every day to choose a son-in-law, the most ridiculous thing is that this hydrangea is so lively, if you sign up now, I am afraid that it will be ten days later. ”
Tong Lu laughed after hearing this,
"Brother sweetheart, this lotus festival, let's make money here! With Brother Xiaoyi's skills, isn't that a hundred shots!"
Sweetheart smiled bitterly,
"There are still rules in this embroidery field, you can't grab hydrangeas many times, otherwise you still have to pay money, or the good players in the rivers and lakes will either make money or hold the beauty. Beauty, uh...... However, most of the girls who come to throw hydrangeas can't get married, so there are more people who come to join in the fun in this hydrangea competition, and to be honest, it's really a good show. ”
Tong Lu smiled and continued,
"This Wang family is also very powerful, and they can come up with such a method! They will never do such a loss-making business! Brother sweetheart, did you notice just now, the few jars of wine under the embroidered building seem to have been moved from your house yesterday! I think he charges by the bowl, and it seems that he has changed his name, what is it called 'sugar heart' wine! Ahh
Sweetheart laughed,
"People are powerful, what can you do, but when you talk back, you see that my father is so happy, and I feel happy in my heart. As for what they do with the wine, I don't care, and I don't want to. ”
Xiao Yi took a sip of tea, only to feel that the tea was unusually rich, and he couldn't taste anything.
"Brother sweetheart, you have such a good mentality, if it were me, you would be mad!"
Sweetheart patted Xiao Yi on the shoulder,
"Young man, when you are over half a hundred years old, come here to pick up a hydrangea, you can deeply feel my state of mind! haha!
A few people laughed, collected some snacks on the street, and ate a lot of tea with this tea. After a day of wandering, before I knew it, the sky was dark. Sweetheart slapped her thigh,
"Oh, my ship is still at the scholar's, we have to get it quickly!"
Xiao Yi knew how important this boat was to him, although he really wanted to visit this Caohai Town at night, but he couldn't disobey it, so he had to drag Tong Lu Baiqing and the four of them out of the town together.
When he came to the edge of the sea of grass, he searched around, and in a remote corner, he finally found the trace of the scholar, but there was no trace of the young lady around him. Xiao Yi stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder with a smile,
"This little brother Xie, you are still trustworthy, you have been waiting here!"
The surnamed Xie Shusheng shook lightly,
"Xiaosheng is only afraid that he will miss you, so he has to stay here all the time. ”
Tong Lu answered with a smile,
"What about the young lady, why didn't she come with you?"
The scholar's eyes were a little dim,
"Miss originally invited me to go to Caohai Town for tea and play, no, I insisted on guarding the boat, so she left angrily. ”
Tong Lu was shocked,
"Then why don't you go quickly, what are you waiting, go quickly. ”
Xiao Yi also stepped forward, stuffed the deposit into his hand, and pushed him towards the direction of Caohai Town. But this scholar was still muttering, saying something like thank you for repayment, and several people couldn't cry or laugh, such a pedantic person, Xiao Yi thought that it would be better to make less trouble in the future.
The crowd was about to set off, and just as they were about to board the ship, they heard shouts not far away. Xiao Yi looked up and saw a luxury boat coming ashore from a distance, the boat was brightly lit and crowded, and it was not much different from the boat used by Gongzi that day. Fireworks were set off around the big ship, and the flames were shining in all directions, which was extremely beautiful. The people on the shore were shouting, and because they were far away, they didn't know what they were shouting. Tong Lu was curious and asked,
"Hey, this ship is so angry, why don't we go and see it, maybe we can meet something fun!"
"Okay, okay, let's go and have a look!" Bai Qing also clapped his hands in agreement.
The three of them looked at the sweetheart, and the sweetheart spread her hands,
"Go ahead, I'll wait here, if it gets dark, it's good to swim in this sea of grass at night, but if you leave me, it's not easy to find a way out in the water and grass, so ah, I'll wait for you here." ”
Xiao Yi thought about it and said,
"Then let's go and come back quickly, Brother Sweetheart, you can rest here for a while, and we'll come when we go!"
After saying that, the three of them ran away together, and soon came to the side of the big boat. The front of the boat was crowded with people, mostly young children, and small merchants and vendors in the vicinity. After a while, more than a dozen men came down from the boat and separated the crowd. The crowd cooperated, but they just stared at the boat. Suddenly, there was a shout, and the girls surrounded a few young ladies and slowly got off the boat, those young ladies were dressed plainly, even so, from that temperament, they could still see their noble status at a glance. Xiao Yi tiptoed to look at the young ladies, only to feel dizzy, and couldn't tell who was who at all. Bai Qing was blocked by the crowd, Xiao Yi let her horse ride on her shoulder, Bai Qing was in a good mood and looked around.
"It seems to be four young ladies, it should be two pairs of twins, probably fifteen or sixteen years old, hey, there is a seven or eight-year-old boy, who wanted to escape, but was held down by these young ladies with one hand. The most annoying thing is that this girl ring is actually a pair of twos and twos, which is really strange...... "Bai Qing muttered endlessly while watching, Tong Lu could only see a little bit when he jumped up, but he couldn't really see it, and when he heard her say this, he was depressed.
A vendor next to him looked at him, nudged him gently, and said with a smile,
"The young ladies of the Xiao family are great good people, every time they go out is a big fanfare, but every time they will benefit the township, when they meet us small traders, they want to take away the unsold ones, and this child is also a gift for everyone. Although the Xiao family's mansion is not here, but its family business is large, and the breadth of its livelihood is one of the best giants in the north of Dali City. No, every time the Xiao family comes to Caohai Town, the Wang family has to make a lot of stutters, look at this boat, the Wang family has wasted a lot of thoughts!"
The crowd surrounded the young ladies and slowly walked towards Nacaohai Town, and the silver money was scattered along the way, and the young ladies didn't seem to feel distressed at all, even Xiao Yi and the three of them each got a share. Some greedy people received it before, and then they lined up to the back, and received an extra copy, and when the sky was dark, no one paid attention. Xiao Yi held the silver coin in his hand, and said to Bai Qingtong Lu with a smile,
"I can find a way to make money, I will follow these young ladies wherever they go in the future, there is food everywhere, and I don't have to work, it's really happy!"
Bai Qingtong Lu also laughed out loud after hearing this. Suddenly, a young lady stopped and looked at this side, and happened to meet Xiao Yi's eyes, Xiao Yi's heart was excited, could it be that she heard what she said just now, but there was only some complaint in his eyes, and there was no sense of anger, which made him feel a little relieved. Grandpa's words have long been deeply rooted in his heart, this woman, but she must not be offended.
Xiao Yi grinned, revealing two rows of big white teeth, and the young lady wrinkled his nose at him, and then turned to follow the sisters in front of him. A black shadow flashed, and the young lady seemed to have been nudged by someone, but when she turned around, there was nothing abnormal, and the crowd around her was mixed, and no one paid attention to it. Xiao Yi looked at the young lady just now, and his eyes never left, but he saw what happened just now. He put down Bai Qing, squeezed forward, and shouted at the young lady from a few people,
"This young lady, you need to check if you have left anything important!"
When the young lady saw that this person was again, she was a little annoyed, glared at him, and continued to walk forward. As soon as he took ten or so steps, he screamed,
"Ahh
The other ladies also panicked, and the Yahuan guys were in chaos, trying to stop everyone, but it made the scene even more chaotic. Children are running around, and the vendors are trying to get out of the land as soon as possible. Xiao Yi wanted to step forward, but there were all children around him, and he couldn't get close for a while. Xiao Yi really saw that those young ladies were really tricked. The four young ladies all lost their personal accessories, except for the woman who looked at Xiao Yi, the other three were crying. Xiao Yi thought to himself, this young lady is not simple, and there is no panic, call the guy who is close to the front of the ring, and arrange the next matters, Xiao Yi saw that her eyes were resolute and she was capable and sophisticated, and she was also a little admired in her heart. Tong Lu Baiqing is not a big deal to watch the play, standing next to Xiao Yi silly, these gadgets are nothing to the rich, but they can steal the objects on the four people in an instant, and no one has found out, which tests the thief's means.
Xiao Yi saw all this in his eyes, and knew that the thief was not far away, but when the incident happened, he was too far away, and now the crowd is chaotic, and it is not easy to catch that person. What's more, it's rare to encounter this kind of thing, and I also want to see this young lady's clever methods, if I can attract that person to show up, it's not too late for me to come to help.
The young lady leaned over to comfort the three sisters, while Childe glared at all the men around him with a serious attitude, including his own scheming. Xiao Yi only felt funny, but saw the young lady's slender hand on the little boy's chest, pressed it gently, and then breathed a sigh of relief. Several young ladies brought rain, but they got up slowly, intentionally or unintentionally protecting the little boy.
"Miss, Miss, you see this man is sneaky, it's probably him!" a man came to the front with a man twisted and shouted, and the man was so frightened that he curled up and did not dare to make a sound.
When Xiao Yi saw that person, he didn't like it in his heart, although this person looked obscene, what was the reason for framing others out of thin air! This kind of behavior of judging people by their appearance is really ridiculous!
A few guys with big shoulders and round waists came up and rummaged over the man a few times, but they scared the man so much that he was so disgusting that he was not disgusting. But this search doesn't matter, someone around makes a sound,
"If there is no royal law, how can lynching be inflicted, is this how the Xiao family treats the people?"
There was a lot of discussion in the crowd, and the scene became chaotic again. The girls were around to pacify the crowd, but everyone was even more unsympathetic, and some even scolded loudly, not remembering the benefits they had just gotten. Xiao Yi thought to himself, this person's heart is really difficult to grasp, just after getting the benefit, he will turn his face and deny people. Just like the person who walks the rivers and lakes, he was good to you at the beginning, but maybe he will kill you in the next second, so he really has to guard against it. But then again, if you don't have that heart, how can you prevent it. He shook his head and sighed slightly.
The young lady apologized loudly, but someone in the crowd rose up and surrounded them. The young lady was helpless, and the and urine stinked unpleasantly, so she and the Yahuan guys wanted to squeeze out of the crowd. At this moment, a brisk figure squeezed closer, and a skillful hand had already reached into the neck of the little boy. Suddenly, a crisp bell rang, and before the figure could come to its senses, it was surrounded by several fellows. The crowd slowly calmed down, staring intently at the scene in front of them. Xiao Yi slapped his thigh,
"Oh, it's a good plan! This young lady is not simple!"
Tong Lu smiled and echoed,
"She is beautiful and so smart, what kind of man has the blessing to marry her home!"
Bai Qing laughed.
The young lady didn't observe this side, just stared at the person who stole the jade,
"Who are you, and why are you doing this stealing?!"
The man was dressed as an ordinary fisherman, and his appearance was quite upright. At this time, he was looking at the big men around him with a smile on his face, and after listening to the young lady, he also nodded.
"This young lady, you can be merciful, and you will spare me this time. I won't dare to do it again, hey, I'll give you back this little bell. ”
After saying that, he quickly threw the little bell and nailed it straight to the center of the young lady's eyebrows. The young lady was so frightened that she was not paying attention to her feet, and fell backwards in a hurry. She was a little frightened, but she was not afraid, and she was about to fall to the ground when the bell flew to her. Suddenly, a big hand grabbed the young lady's waist, and the oncoming bell was easily grabbed by the man. When the young lady looked back, he was a swarthy young man, with unusually well-defined muscles. This person is Xiao Yi, from the point of view of the young lady, she is really heroic and extraordinary, but this young lady seems to have lost her soul at this time, and looks at Xiao Yi directly. Xiao Yi didn't realize it at all, but Bai Qing was a little uncomfortable, and he stepped forward and coughed a few times, and Xiao Yi gently helped the young lady up.
The thief sneered, his body exploded, and he kicked down the big man who came forward with a single kick. Taking advantage of that momentum, he rose into the air, and with his feet on the shoulders of the man behind him, he turned around with a smile and was about to flee out of the crowd.
It was too late, it was too fast, and his feet had just left the big man's shoulders, but they were tightly wrapped in a chain. The thief's whole body trembled, and he was pulled back by the iron lock, and lost his center of gravity in an instant. Xiao Yi was overjoyed, thinking that although this person was light, he didn't want to prevent himself from having this trick, and as soon as the claws of the son and mother came out, the person would be captured alive. The man fell to the ground, landed on his elbows, flicked hard, his body burst up, and he bounced backwards with a flying kick, Xiao Yi didn't think that this person's body was so clever, and hurriedly dodged the blow, and the man took the opportunity to break free from the chains. Xiao Yi was unwilling, and was about to move forward to continue to fight with him, but the man snorted, and a piece of blue and white thing shot out, Xiao Yi didn't dare to be careless, and gently helped the thing into his hand, only to feel that the thing was smooth and round, just wanted to take a look, but the other piece flew in a hurry. Xiao Yi had already guessed that it was the four stolen jade pendants, and the thief had already drifted a few feet away, and with his skills, he was afraid that he would be powerless to catch up. Xiao Yi held the jade pendant and looked at the man, only to see that the man had his back to everyone, his head tilted slightly to the left, and said,
"The kid is good, if he meets a famous teacher, and then practice diligently, he will be able to achieve some feats. Someone has been in the world for many years, but it is rarely recognized, and today it is planted in your hands, and those playthings will be given to you and let you go. There is some inconvenience today, if he meets in the rivers and lakes in the future, he will definitely ask you for a glass of wine!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a whistle sounded, and only the neighing of the horse could be heard, and it seemed to fly out from the side, and the thief stepped forward with an arrow, and was lifted on the horse's back with a gentle and skillful skill. Xiao Yi was shocked, this person is so skilled, he must have a great background. Although he didn't suffer a big loss in this fight, he also had some lingering palpitations, but when he thought about it, he couldn't even remember the face of that person, as if he had never seen it before, and the hair on his body stood up. If you think about it carefully, the man's face was distorted at first, and he really couldn't see his true appearance. Xiao Yi smiled bitterly and shook his head, and then looked down at the jade pendants. It is also strange to say that although this jade is a good jade, it has not been polished too much, and it does not seem to be very compatible with the identity of this daughter. Just as he was thinking about it, the young lady had already stepped forward,
"Thank you Gongzi for coming out for my sister and brother, I don't know Gongzi's surname, the little woman will repay her heavily. ”
Xiao Yi touched his head and smiled,
"Call me Xiaoyi, the screaming of the son is uncomfortable. No, this jade pendant and this piece of convenience have been returned to their original owners. ”
Xiao Yi is usually informal, and when he handed the jade pendant to Miss, he accidentally touched Miss's thin hand, and Xiao Yi didn't notice it at all, but Miss was blushing. Xiao Yi only felt strange, so he just stared at the young lady. The young lady's face was even redder, but she was indescribably delicate and moving. Xiao Yi's heart shook, it turned out that this woman's shy appearance was so good-looking. Xiao Yi smirked, and suddenly there was a pain in his foot, and he gritted his teeth and looked down. I saw a pair of little feet stepping on the instep of his feet, scolding and scolding in his mouth, and looking at Xiao Yi with some resentment in his eyes, it was the little boy. Xiao Yi smiled bitterly and touched his head with his hand, but he didn't want the kid to grab the cuffs. The young lady came up to talk about it, and then let the boy go.
Xiao Yi leaned over and patted the instep of his foot, shrugged his shoulders at the young lady, and said with a smile,
"Thank you no need, then I will leave!"
After speaking, he smiled lightly, made a grimace at the kid, and went straight to Bai Qingtong Lu's side. The three of them looked at each other and laughed, laughing side by side.
Several young ladies looked at the backs of the three of them, and they couldn't speak for a while, but the little boy kept grimacing at this side, punching and scolding in the air. The crowd began to stir again, as if nothing had happened just now. The young lady sighed softly, and slowly walked towards the direction of Caohai Town with her sister and brother.
Sweetheart was also very curious when she saw this situation from a distance. Tong Lu added oil and vinegar to say, but he couldn't stop laughing at the sweetheart. The four of them got on the boat and rowed the pole, more than three feet away from the shore, Xiao Yi's eyes glanced at him, and a cold sweat broke out. There was a person standing on the shore, looking at the figure, it was the jade thief! Xiao Yi didn't know what to do, but the man beckoned to this side, and then quickly threw an object. Xiao Yi caught it lightly, and then looked at the shore, but there was no trace of the person. He took advantage of the moonlight to look at the object, and saw that it was two inches long, one end was relatively broad, and the other side was very sharp, it was black all over, and the surface was slightly rough, although it was hollow, it was still extremely hard. Xiao Yi tried it, it seems to be a finger sleeve, just enough to be worn on the little finger, if it is Bai Qingtong Lu, it can also be worn on the middle finger. Xiao Yi was so strange, and when he looked around again, as expected, he was just busy in vain.
