twenty-first
Weng Zitang had been slapped by Fei Guixiang that day. He hated her and wanted to take revenge. After asking around, he found out that this girl was Fei Mushan's daughter. She was also a woman with thorns all over her body and horns on her head. He was so scared that he didn't dare to find trouble with this girl to vent his anger. He just wanted to vent his anger on Fei Mushan. After thinking about it, he realized that San Xian had been loyal all his life. He was a good-for-nothing who would not retaliate when he was beaten or scolded. No one in D-Town said anything bad about him. They even sympathized with him for letting someone else kidnap his wife. Regardless of whether he was loyal or not, he would still be angry. That afternoon, Fei Mushan passed by his shop while picking up a load of goods. This "Drug Lord", who usually spent a penny as if it was two cents, and never ate anything for leisure, actually called out to Fei Mushan. When the goods stopped, he secretly caught a fly and held it in his fist. Then, he took a large porcelain bowl and bought ten pieces of boiled tofu from Fei Mushan. While others were buying, he ate five pieces first, then quietly threw the fly in his hand into the unfinished tofu. He took the porcelain bowl and walked to Fei Mushan with a stern face."Look, this fly can be sold for money. Don't you care about hygiene? Eating a fly would cause diarrhea and vomiting. It was a life-and-death matter!”He pretended to be nauseous, as if he wanted to dig out what he had eaten. Fei Mushan saw that the flies in the basin were still moving and did not dare to argue. He could only smile and apologize. However, Weng Zitang poured the flies and dried tofu into the pot that still had a lot of oily dried tofu. The others could not stand it and wanted to fight injustice, but Fei Mushan tried to calm things down and persuaded him to let it go. She admitted her bad luck and picked up the goods and went home. Weng Zitang ate free food and wasted so much dried tofu. He thought he had vented his anger and was full of ambition. In less than an hour, Fei Guixiang came to the door with the pot of dried tofu. She put the pot on the cabinet and shouted for Weng Zitang to pay. In an instant, there were many spectators inside and outside the shop. Fei Guixiang asked loudly. Since it was a live fly, it was obvious that it was not from the pot of boiling soup. You knew that flies were harmful, so why did you have to pour this live fly into the pot? You've already eaten a few pieces of dried tofu. Why didn't you say that you're not paying? There are flies in your shop too. Could it be that these flies were picked out by my dad and not from your shop? You've never eaten my dried tofu, so why did you eat a fly for the first time today? Who knows what kind of intentions you have, you old pervert! This series of questions made the spectators say that Weng Zitang was wrong. Fei Guixiang saw that everyone was on her side, so she shouted at Weng Zitang,"You old pervert, are you going to pay? If you're smart enough to compensate me, I'll forget about it. Otherwise, I'll peel off your face and let everyone know why you're venting your anger on my father. My dad is honest. I'm not meat on the chopping board. You can cut me however you want!”Weng Zitang thought that the last time was unclear. He was afraid that she would bring it up again and accuse him of " molesting women " in front of so many people. It was not just a matter of losing face. He could only relent and compensate according to the price, even counting the amount he ate. Fei Guixiang took the money and poured the dried tofu, soup, and oil into his shop. She shook her long braid and shook her fat butt as she stomped away. Weng Zitang was like stealing a chicken but not eating rice. He was regretful and angry. He felt that it was not human to not take revenge.
Weng Zitang's wife, Weng Juxian, heard the hidden meaning in Fei Guixiang's words. She cried and made a fuss. At night, she locked him outside the door and asked him to honestly confess what evil thoughts he had on this girl and be willing to pay for the unjust money. Weng Zitang could only tell her about the scene on the road that day. His wife did not believe him and insisted that he had touched her somewhere. She wanted him to tell her if he had touched her top or bottom. Weng Zitang cursed for a long time before he stopped. However, it was already past three o'clock at night. He was so tired that his back was sore and he was covered in sweat. He swore that he would teach this wild girl a lesson and see how hard the horns on her head were and how sharp the thorns on her body were. His wife advised him,"You are a boneless worm. What kind of good man are you?" Forget it. Sparrows that fly away in fear at the sight of scarecrows shouldn't peck the eagle's wings. Who knew how much money he would have to obediently pay out if he was called an old lecher!”At the mention of this money, Weng Zitang felt as if he had cut off a piece of flesh from his body, and he became even more furious. I really want to take a bag of medicine and mute this little vixen. I want to see you bite people again. Thinking of this, he really felt like he had seen Fei Guixiang go mute and make a fool of herself on the streets. He smiled proudly and his hand landed on the shriveled flesh on his wife's chest. It tickled Weng Juxian so much that she giggled. The parents of the four children had another spring scene.
From that day on, Weng Zitang had been asking around for Fei Guixiang's whereabouts. So, Fei Guixiang was Fang Zhaorong's goddaughter. She bullied people because her godfather was a cadre in charge of her. Heh, not bad, not bad! Look, your godfather is also a fake revolutionary who is colluding with the counter-revolution! The day before yesterday, when he went to South Street to buy Kaiyang and pickled vegetables, he saw Fei Guixiang and Hua Shijie standing together in front of the cloth shop, talking and laughing. Haha, you little slut, how dare you hang out with the family of a counter-revolutionary. Heh, very good, very good! As the saying goes," If you lose money on the Pai Gow table, you can get it back on the Mahjong table." Little slut, I, Weng Zitang, will break off your marriage and cut off your love. I'll see if you ask me for money again! If you can't kill a horse, you can slaughter a mule. He seemed to have really taken revenge, and he shook his head proudly. When he returned home, he hugged his wife and kissed her wrinkled face with all his might. His wife was cooking and was afraid that the vegetable oil in the pot would overcook and burn. In a moment of desperation, she picked up the spatula and poked it at the important part of his lower body, cursing,"Old pervert, aren't you afraid of offending the Zao family Bodhisattva?”He only felt that the thing below him was sore and painful. He held it with both hands and wailed. Shi Mengde, the old Taoist priest of the Ancestral Master Hall, walked in. When he saw this scene, he quickly turned around and chuckled. He let Shi Mengde into the shop and gently asked him what had happened. Shi Mengde said that he had been begging for you for a few days. Last night, the founder came to me in a dream and said that sooner or later, a disaster would descend on the demoness who slapped you. The founder Bodhisattva was very effective. With that, he asked Weng Zitang for money. Didn't Weng Zitang say he already gave it to you? Shi Mengde said that this would be because the Ancestral Master Bodhisattva found you insincere and punished you with a bucket of rice. The one who gave the bad luck was that demoness, and the one who didn't give the bad luck was you. Who asked you to make empty wishes? Weng Zitang had no choice. In order to ask God to cure Fei Guixiang, he had to grit his teeth and endure the pain to give Shi Daoshi a bucket of rice money. When Priest Shi left, Weng Zitang spat on the ground behind him and cursed softly,""I beg the ancestor to surrender you, you vixen!”
Others said that they could kill two birds with one stone, but Weng Zitang wanted to kill three birds with one stone, stringing Hua, Fang, and Fei on one arrow. In fact, the Hua Family had no enmity with him. When Hua Shiliang was alive, he bought ginseng and deer antler from him every year. One year, Weng Zitang even mixed a fake ginseng with good ginseng and sold it to Hua Shiliang. Afterwards, Hua Shiliang only returned the fake ginseng to him. Not only did he not blame him, but he also explained on his behalf that he must have been too busy and had seen wrongly. He quickly said that his eyes were playing tricks on him, and he only took half the amount. Hua Shiliang only smiled and didn't ask him to return the extra money. After Hua Shiliang left, he scolded this Western doctor for knowing Chinese medicine. It was no wonder that he had taken over half of the business in and out of the city. He really hated Hua Shiliang. He had been taught Chinese medicine since he was a child. His master was a drunkard who had not drunk yet. He had not drunk yet. He was fine when he was drunk. As long as he drank with him, he could teach him many medical skills. Although he didn't become a drunkard, he became a quack with an unclear pulse. After three years as a teacher, he borrowed his father-in-law Weng Chuntang Pharmacy to practice medicine. Business was already slow, and ever since Guanghua Western Medicine Clinic opened, no one wanted to talk to him as a doctor, so he could only help his father-in-law run the pharmacy. The more famous Hua Shiliang was, the less business he had in D City. His Chinese medicine shop often used inferior products to pass off as good ones, which made business even worse. He didn't hate himself, he only hated Hua Shiliang.
Weng Zitang woke up especially early today. He had to stay in the teahouse for a while longer because his wife had stipulated that he could not have his morning tea after eight o'clock. Otherwise, sorry, he would be invited to a restaurant for lunch. He had money, but he didn't want to go to a restaurant. Usually, when he ate a bowl of spinach noodles, he had to walk around the restaurant three times to calculate. If he wanted to sit in the teahouse more often, he had to wake up early. He was the first one to step into the Essence Pavilion. The teahouse's Ah Liu didn't think highly of him. Every time he saw Ah Liu put in the tea leaves, he would take it away himself, afraid that Ah Liu would put in the tea or change the bag. In fact, he also understood that Six was an honest person and never faked anything. However, he did not know that honest people hated it when others suspected that he was dishonest. If someone else was the first to arrive, Six would accompany them and chat with them to relieve their loneliness. This was the nature of the old hall. Today, Six let him sit alone. He wanted to find someone to talk to and vent his hatred for the Hua and Fang families. He talked to Six several times. Although there was a smile on Six's face, he only stood far away and responded with a few words. He didn't dare to curse loudly and felt bored, so he drank his tea gloomily.
Xu Jingfu had made Hua Shijie break his finger yesterday, and he had also suffered two punches and two pieces of dog skin paste. Her fingers and heart ached, and her chest hurt even when she breathed in. After a night of torment, she did not sleep well. She also came to the teahouse early to listen to the news to relieve her boredom. The old customer didn't need to say anything. He picked a table himself. Ah Liu had already served the black tea to him and even said a few perfunctory words before leaving. Xu Jingfu looked around and saw Weng Zitang sitting there alone, smiling and nodding at him. He also smiled and nodded at him, and then poured tea.
Weng Zitang simply took the teapot and tea cup and walked to Xu Jingfu's table to sit down. He saw that Xu Jingfu's right index finger was bandaged, and his chest seemed to be plastered with plaster, so he asked how he was injured.
When he asked, Xu Jingfu was furious. He made up a story and said that he saw Song Jingzhong's mother telling old stories on the street yesterday. He kindly advised her to go home. In this new society, don't talk about feudal dynasties. If not, it might cause trouble. At this time, the three monkeys of the Hua family came and insisted that I bullied the old man. Before I could explain, they attacked me and punched me twice in the chest. Look at the two dog skin plasters and broke my fingers. Look at this world. Is there such an unreasonable young man? Boss Weng, do you think you can take this lying down? Damn it, I, Xu Jingfu, am already forty years old. I have seen many people with red eyebrows and green eyes, but I have never seen such an unreasonable beast! I've crossed more bridges than he has walked, so I have friends. This monkey actually dared to touch my head. He can be considered lucky. " I won't let him off. Wait until my injuries are healed…" He coughed and his chest hurt for a while. He could only hold his chest and pant.
Weng Zitang was secretly happy when he heard this, thinking that he was really lucky to get up early. Suddenly, an allied army, the assault team, came and asked softly,"Is that old fart from the Song Clan talking about the Daoguang Era?”Seeing Xu Jingfu nod, he knew that this was the Xu family's greatest taboo. He pretended to be angry and knocked on the table with his fist."Heh, that Emperor Daoguang clearly judged the Gourd Case indiscriminately and wronged your Xu family's ancestor, humiliating the merits of your ancestors. What kind of society was it now? To overthrow feudalism! This old fart's lifespan has come to an end."
Xu Jingfu seemed to have received an amulet. He slammed the table and said,"Yes, Boss Weng is right. It was the feudal emperor, Daoguang, who wronged our great-grandfather and great-grandmother. Damn it, this old fart is promoting the feudal emperor. This is a rebellion. I'm going to sue you, you rebellious old woman, and let you go around gossiping again!”
Weng Zitang bent his fingers and tapped on the table proudly.""I say, Boss Xu, I'm afraid you're not angry at the butcher but at the butcher.”
"I'm confused now. It's time to consult."
The pastry seller walked over with a bamboo basket. Xu Jingfu stopped him and bought eight mint cakes. He took four for himself and pushed the rest to Weng Zitang.
Weng Zitang nodded and reached out to take it.""It's really shameful to ask Boss Xu to spend money. -- Boss Xu, you also ran to Hangzhou and entered Shanghai. Who in the Three Prefectures doesn't like you? Why? Just because you, Boss Xu, are like this." He gave her a thumbs-up." What can cover your eyes?" A wise man will always make a mistake. You've misjudged this matter! Think about it, who hit you? Why would I hit you for no reason? Was he really fighting for that old fart?”He smiled mysteriously and began to eat the mint cake.
Xu Jingfu seemed to have realized something.”
Weng Zitang had already finished a piece of mint cake. In fact, he was already hungry, so he forced himself to drink tea to satisfy his hunger. He picked up the second cake and said,"These few days, there are only two things being discussed here. One is the Hua family, and the other is your ancestor. What happened after that, he didn't want to say it in front of you. Are you a person who can make a sound in public? After getting to the bottom of it, this second matter was spread everywhere by the three monkeys of the Hua family. You should understand this, right?”He was busy eating the mint cake in his hand again. He felt that it was especially sweet.
Xu Jingfu smiled." Wow, so these three monkeys fabricated my family's matters to help his family's daub gold." Hey, Third Monkey, I'll let you be ruthless!"
The number of people in the teahouse gradually increased. Weng Zitang was afraid that others would hear him. She looked around and saw that there was an empty table in the east corner. She wanted Xu Jingfu to move there for tea. After the two of them sat down at the table in the east corner, Weng Zitang whispered to Xu Jingfu,""Do you know why the three monkeys are so bold? Do you really think that he was born fearless? This was wrong! The Three Monkeys have a backer behind them. Who is it? It was Fang Zhaorong, who had suddenly become a cadre! Only then did I understand that Fang Zhaorong and Hua Shiliang were good friends in the past, and now they're even close to the Hua family!”
Xu Jingfu was also a person who could not wait for something to happen to Fang Zhaorong. It was not because he had any deep hatred, but because he was jealous. Ever since he married Chen Chunfang, he met Jiang Shanshan at the mahjong table. This beauty really made Xu Jingfu fall head over heels for her. Her tall figure made him feel like a spring breeze when she walked. Chen Chunfang's skin was considered fair, but it could not compare to Jiang Shanshan's fair and delicate skin. Although Chen Chunfang's eyes were like spring water in February, Jiang Shanshan's eyes were like the hazy first moon, shining with a charming luster. Chen Chunfang was a rare beauty, while Jiang Shanshan was a beauty of beauties. He, Xu Jingfu, had come into contact with the fireworks and willows too much. He had played with the older men in Shanghai and Suzhou before. They were all pretty, but they could not compare to Jiang Shanshan's charm. This was a rare beauty in the world. Look at her hands when she plays mahjong. Her fingers are slender and cute. For this reason, he often had Chen Chunfang play a few rounds and deliberately touch Jiang Shanshan's hand while playing. If Jiang Shanshan did not smile and avoid it, he really wanted to grab it. He deliberately stretched out his leg to hook her leg, but she stepped on it ruthlessly and even rolled her eyes at him. He had tried to provoke Jiang Shanshan several times when Chen Chunfang was walking away, but she ignored him. Sometimes, when Chen Chunfang came back, she would deliberately smile and say to Chen Chunfang,"How much fish does your gluttonous cat eat a day? Can't you feed him more so that he won't meow and jump when he sees a fish?”Sometimes, he would scold him directly." You, Yi Tong didn't get along, so you waited for Er Tong. No wonder you lost! Shoutou, where are your eyes looking at? Let's play cards!”If he hadn't been liberated, he, Xu Jingfu, would really have bribed the bandits to snatch this beauty over. Even if he had to play with her for a day, it would be enough to satisfy his craving. Sometimes, he thought that the heavens had opened their eyes and made Fang Zhaorong sick and paralyzed. A thirty-year-old woman was a wolf. Could she, Jiang Shanshan, endure it? Women did not love money. At that time, he, Xu Jingfu, would spend a lot of money and play tricks. Wouldn't he be able to bring this mother to his side? Fang Zhaorong had enjoyed more than ten years of love. It was worth it even if he died. Sigh, but Wu Zai made others drool at Qing Mei! He, Xu Jingfu, could only change his method and make friends with Fang Zhaorong. People said,'Don't bully your friend's wife', but he didn't care. He was making friends as his wife. He would make a trip there whenever he had something to do. He gave gifts regardless of the season. Two bottles of wine today and a chicken tomorrow. However, Fang Zhaorong looked down on him and was always perfunctory. He won't leave when you're here. He won't go to work when it's time. If there's no gap in the fence, wild dogs can't get in. Jiang Shanshan was also very picky. If you went, she would just say a few perfunctory words and go upstairs. She would never come down again. She did not even respect a cup of tea. He, Xu Jingfu, was like a meat bun beating a dog. He had gone and never returned. Fortunately, he had a lot of money. He did not feel any heartache when he spent it on women. Shoutou number, let's go to Shoutou number. If he wanted a woman to agree, not only did he have to be willing to part with a large amount of silver, he also had to be shameless. He seized the opportunity to play cards again, sometimes explicitly and sometimes hinting. What did Jiang Shanshan want? East Wind? West Wind? Just say the word. Even if you fight a 13th generation, I, Xu Jingfu, will fight you. Jiang Shanshan refused to do so. This fish was really difficult to bait! The more he couldn't get it, the more greedy he became. He, Xu Jingfu, had made up his mind to bait this fat fish. Today, he heard from Weng Zitang that Fang Zhaorong, as a revolutionary cadre, actually colluded with the counter-revolutionary Hua family and supported Hua Shijie. He let him talk about the feudal emperor everywhere to turn over the Hua family's case. Thank God! Fang Zhaorong, Fang Zhaorong, you're asking for trouble. I want to sue, sue Hua Shijie into prison, vent my hatred from yesterday, sue you Fang Zhaorong into prison, and relieve my craving for beauty. If you don't overwhelm your peers, you won't be able to dominate this industry. If Fang Zhaorong didn't fall, Beauty Jiang was rare. He thought about it carefully. He had never interacted with the Hua Family, so it didn't matter if they became enemies. Jiang Shanshan was not Pan Jinlian, who had committed adultery first and then plotted against her husband. He, Xu Jingfu, had not even pinched Jiang Shanshan's hand. He had no choice but to use someone else's knife to kill him, so he gently encouraged Weng Zitang,""You should report it. The people's government is encouraging reporting.”
Weng Zitang looked at Xu Jingfu and thought to himself, You can be considered a local tyrant. Who offended you, wouldn't you be in a mess? What's wrong with you today? Why are you cowering after being beaten up like this?"Boss Xu, are you afraid of being beaten up?" Not necessarily. You're also a person who can shout loudly on the scene. You won't let a person whose hair is still dry extinguish your prestige, right?”
Before Xu Jingfu could laugh, his chest was already hurting. He gritted his teeth and slammed the table."I dare to f * ck his ancestors!" He lowered his voice." To be honest, I'm friends with Fang Zhaorong-"
Weng Zitang was shocked.”It was too late for regrets, so he could only apologize,"I'm really sorry-"
"Don't panic!" Xu Jingfu interrupted him. A friend is a friend, but I can't go down the same path as him and collude with the counter-revolution. I don't want to take advantage of this. I can support you, but I can't show my face. Everyone wanted to get close to the Great Party? You're on the right path. I'll help you with anything you want. Money? How much? I just need you to say it."
"I'm afraid that it's difficult to make a sound alone. Fang Zhaorong was not a rotten pig's head that could be bitten. You're a smart person, so why are you afraid that there's nothing you can do?”
Six came over to pour some water. Seeing that the two of them were sneaky, he deliberately stood there for a while. Seeing that they didn't say anything, he walked to the table next to him and stood there for a while. They started talking again. Their voices were too low and he couldn't hear them clearly. He could only walk away. However, he muttered in his heart,'These two people have never been so congenial before, and they can't do business together. What kind of water would float them together?'
Xu Jingfu and Weng Zitang discussed for a while, and Weng Zitang finally made Xu Jingfu work hard. He, Weng Zitang, would step forward to report Hua Shijie for spreading the story of the feudal emperor everywhere. He would use this to confuse the people and cry out for the injustice of the Hua family. As for the money, no matter how much it was, Xu Jingfu would pay for it. He also asked Weng Zitang to go to his fruit shop to get ten stone rice money first, and then he could get it as he wanted. However, he must never tell anyone his name. Otherwise, Boss Weng, if I, Xu Jingfu, collapse, I won't be able to face you.
Weng Zitang never dreamed that he could get money by secretly kicking Fang Zhaorong and Hua Shijie. Who wouldn't want a windfall? He looked at his watch and saw that it was already eight o'clock. Aiyaya, he had violated the golden rule set by his wife. He couldn't have lunch. Hey, who cares? If there's nothing to eat at home, then go to a restaurant! Didn't he already have money? It would be a waste not to eat the plague. With his hands behind his back, he shook his head and walked out of the Essence Pavilion. He snorted again."Two…" Sigh, softly, softly. He quickly lowered his voice."Peach blossoms bloom in February. Little sister is in a daze when she sees the flowers. Brother, you went away for three months without any news. Could it be that you picked those wildflowers and forgot about your sister?……”He bumped into the woman who was selling eggs and knocked the basket of eggs she was carrying onto the ground. Half of the basket was broken. The woman grabbed him and wanted to compensate him. He said that it was the woman who hit him, and the broken egg dirtied his shoes. He wanted the woman to compensate for his shoes. There was a lot of noise. The farmers selling vegetables at the side moved the crowd. Everyone said in unison that he had hit the egg seller and must pay. It was difficult to offend the public's anger. This Boneless Worm was afraid and could only compensate. He cursed in his heart, What bad luck, I ran into a bunch of bandits again!”She thought that the boss had to be like the boss and couldn't lose his head after losing money. Just as she raised her head and walked forward, she heard a quarrel in the teahouse. Since she was late and had no food to eat, she might as well go in and watch the news. He strode into the teahouse. Oh, so it was Song Jingzhong, who sold herbs, and Xu Jingfu who were quarreling. Only then did he remember that Song Jingzhong and Hua Shiliang were friends. Could it be that he was here to cause trouble for Boss Xu because of Hua Shijie? It's not enough to beat someone up, but you still want to show off? I'd like to see how unreasonable Song Jingzhong can be. Perhaps he would get another person who was colluding with the counter-revolution, which would help those who were willing to spend money. Why not? Isn't the love between father and mother like the love between money? Hence, he walked over to the table beside him and sat down. Unexpectedly, Six deliberately provoked him and sent him another pot of tea. He could only blink his eyes and pay.
Song Jingzhong was here to avenge his mother. Originally, he didn't want to get into trouble, but when he helped his mother home yesterday, this mother, who had always been strict with her children, gave her son a good scolding. Did she say that she was a woman who had important matters to attend to? When have I ever told this story on the streets for the sake of the Hua family? Three generations of his family have taken care of us for decades. I'm a woman and I don't have the ability. You keep saying that you want to seek justice for his family, but have you done so? I wanted to tell this story, but others stopped me. You didn't say anything and instead wanted me to go home. Who are you afraid of? If you're afraid to talk, I'll talk. I'll talk tomorrow. If the last generation of the Xu family stops me again, I'll fight for him. I'll let him live comfortably! I've been waiting for you all my life, but I didn't expect you to be my spineless son. After saying that, the old mother cried. He could only kneel in front of his mother and beg for mercy. He knew that his mother was a strong woman. If she said she would do it, she would do it. If she said she would fight to the death, she would fight to the death. If he risked his life to kill Xu Jingfu, he would pay with his life. After risking his mother, where would he find such a good mother again? This morning, he had first persuaded his mother, who was about to go out, to teach Xu Jingfu a lesson first. If I don't stop you, you can talk about it on the streets. After his mother agreed, he entered Joy Pavilion. He first asked Xu Jingfu why he bullied his mother and why he was not allowed to tell this story. It was set by the government. If you take out the provisions, it will not do if you, Xu Jingfu, set it. You can't shut other people's mouths with money. Xu Jingfu was not a person who was afraid of trouble. He said that what your Song Jingzhong's mother said was not the truth and that she deliberately damaged my family's reputation. Your mother is saying that the feudal emperor is good and that the government should interfere! What right do you, Song Jingzhong, have to blame me? You're someone who has passed through three passes and six docks. Is there any reason in the martial arts world that allows you to talk to others but not allow them to ask you? If you're not convinced, we'll gather everyone here tomorrow to judge. If I'm wrong, I apologize. If I'm not bad, you have to give me an explanation!
Song Jingzhong wanted to have nothing to say to this kind of person. They were all local people. What was there to be afraid of? There was no need to mobilize so many people. Today, he would teach him a lesson. If he was convinced, then forget it. If he was not convinced, then he would take the next step. Song Jingzhong slammed the table and said," Xu Jingfu, I won't argue with you. You know that I'm a bachelor. I'm not afraid of your wealth." Since you bullied my mother yesterday, I'll teach you a lesson today. I'll see if you dare to touch my mother's hair in the future!”After saying that, he grabbed Xu Jingfu's uninjured hand. He only used a little strength, but it was so painful that the blood vessels on Xu Jingfu's temple protruded.
Xu Jingfu pretended to be tough and refused to cry out in pain. He only said,"How dare you hit someone, you--"
Song Jingzhong said,"Can your bones withstand a beating?" I'll only ask you one thing. Will you still bully my mother in the future? If you don't tell me today, I won't let you go.”
Weng Zitang knew that Song Jingzhong had learned martial arts from the old abbot of Cixiang Temple since he was young, and his internal energy was very powerful. However, he had never heard of him fighting with anyone. Today, he looked very relaxed and did not seem to have used any martial arts at all. Xu Jingfu was already in so much pain. If this continued, Xu Jingfu would probably be injured, and he would also hurt the money that Weng Zitang had received in the afternoon. He hurriedly came out to smooth things over."Brother Song, we're all from the same hometown, and we see each other everywhere. Why do you have to do this?”
Song Jingzhong thought to himself,'I'm just warning Xu Jingfu not to bully my mother anymore. I don't want to hurt him.' Seeing that Xu Jingfu was a person who cared about his face, he wouldn't easily beg for mercy with so many people around him, unless he was beaten to death. This was unnecessary, and it wasn't good to accumulate too much resentment. When he saw Weng Zitang come to persuade him, he said," I can appreciate your kindness, Boss Weng. But Boss Weng, you have to give me a word today. If Xu Jingfu dares to offend my mother again in the future, what will you say?"”
Weng Zitang was dumbfounded. Wasn't this asking me to be a little more stubborn? I have a few ribs. I don't have iron shoulders that can carry heavy burdens. He wanted to avoid trouble, so he decided to avoid it. However, Xu Jingfu was winking at him, signaling for him to agree. He thought that Xu Jingfu would not be a dabbler. If you've helped me this much today, how can you not thank me? Money is the best. Moreover, Song Jingzhong is also a person who travels everywhere. He knows the principle that grievances have a head and debts have a owner. In the future, if anything really happens, he will only look for Xu Jingfu. At most, he will look for me as a witness. Weng Zitang said,"Brother Song values friendship. I admire you!" I'm deeply grateful that you've given me face today. Let go. I'll definitely persuade Boss Xu. Your brother's mother is our mother. We only love and care. We won't bully her. Brother Song, let go." He quickly took his pot of tea and poured a cup. He respectfully handed it to Song Jingzhong."Drink some tea, drink some tea!"
Song Jingzhong said,"Xu Jingfu, listen well. Since I, Song Jingzhong, dare to have today's situation, I'm not afraid of you in the future." In the future, no matter what my mother says, you are not to say anything to her. Even if I offend you, you can only settle the score with me. I will apologize if I have to. Even if you stab me with a knife, I won't retaliate. You must not be calculative with my mother. Otherwise, even if my mother is not her, I will not forgive you. It's worth it for me and my son to fight against your family of two! Today, I'll let you off!" He let go of his hand and took out a packet of medicine to pass to Xu Jingfu." Take it immediately. It won't hurt anymore and the swelling will go away immediately."”
Xu Jingfu saw that the place where he had been pinched was red and swollen, and it hurt to the bone. He quickly took the herbal powder obediently.
Six was now someone who didn't need to be afraid of people. He was an honest man and didn't want to talk much. He really couldn't stand Weng Zitang, so he interrupted,"Dr. Song, with Boss Weng as a guarantor, you can rest assured. If anything happened, where could he run to? Everyone heard it. Don't worry, have some tea.”
Weng Zitang was shocked. Wasn't he knocking his guarantor to death? What could he say? He could only roll his eyes at Six and curse in his heart,""F * ck, you're considered a working-class person, Hai Wei! Bullsh * t! F * ck your ancestors!"
Song Jingzhong didn't want to drink any more tea. He missed his mother and strode out of the Essence Pavilion.
In just one cigarette, Xu Jingfu saw that the redness and swelling on his hand had disappeared, the pain had stopped, and even the wound on his chest seemed to be much better. However, the anger and hatred in his heart had yet to subside. Seeing that the onlookers had dispersed, he whispered to Weng Zitang,""I won't let him off."
Weng Zitang knew that this "he" was referring to Song Jingzhong. He was so scared that his face turned green. He quickly said,"My ancestor, don't have such thoughts. He was also a person who dared to do what he said. He was not easy to deal with. If we anger him again, we won't have a good time! Just now, I really called you Boss Xu. That's why I was so talkative. Otherwise, even if you gave me a mountain of gold, I wouldn't dare to guarantee this. Who knew when he would stab you? Where would you find him? Those who traveled the Jianghu were all Earthly Immortals. You had only chased him for thirty miles, but he had already run three hundred miles. You knew that he was in the west, but by the time you caught up, he would have already reached the east. I'm begging you now. Just suffer a loss. Besides, he's still on his way. He'll immediately let you take the medicine as if nothing happened. Otherwise, it would be more uncomfortable to let you be in pain for three to five days. Didn't you calm down by cursing him in your heart? I think as long as we do what we just did, it will be a pleasure to relieve our worries and hatred.”
After hearing what Weng Zitang said, Xu Jingfu's hatred dissipated by 70%. He stood up and was about to leave.
Weng Zitang quickly asked again,"Will I come back in the afternoon?"”
Xu Jingfu smiled and said,"That goes without saying. I still have to thank you."”
Weng Zitang respectfully helped Xu Jingfu out of the teahouse and only broke up at the crossroad. Weng Zitang remembered the compensation for the eggs just now. What a fool. This money was given to him by his wife to buy chickens last night. When he got home, his wife asked him where the chicken was. He said that he had a plague and was dead. No! What about the chickens that died from the plague? [Yes, it's not right to say that it flew. How high can a chicken fly? Weng Zitang, such a big man, can't even catch a chicken!] Didn't you say that I'm a boneless worm? The chicken ate the worm! Since he was eaten by the chicken, why did he go home? If a chicken can eat a worm as big as you, then it's like eating a tiger's chicken. Yes, tiger chicken, I, Weng Zitang, will let you eat tiger chicken for the rest of my life! Sigh, Weng Zitang, oh Weng Zitang, why should I be a son-in-law! This woman was five years older than him! Sigh, what could she do? She was poor back then. Poor, poor, so poor that she lost her mind and married a lion from the east of the river. People say,'Recruit a son-in-law, and change your grandson's tricks. One comes, two goes.'But I, Weng Zitang, came and couldn't go. I didn't take the pharmacy away and became a servant. He was being controlled by this woman. If you spend money, you have to pay for it. 355, only 14, not 16. You have to tell the time when you go out. If you're limited to thirty minutes, you can't be thirty-one. If you exceed the time limit, you'll have to drink. The other party drank more as a punishment, but I drank less as a punishment. Why did he have to bear three boys and three girls with her? Two of them died, and there were still two pairs. He subconsciously hit the object below him and cursed to himself, It's all your fault for being disappointing and taking things for yourself. Otherwise, with my abilities, I wouldn't be able to open a pharmacy bigger than Weng Chuntang. If I married a woman five years younger than me, wouldn't I be in charge of her? I'm a boneless worm? Xu Jingfu has a foot in all directions and a mouth full of food. Can he ask me for help or give me money? Chrysanthemum fairy, wife, you look down on your husband! Who was so bold as to dare to grab my ear! When he looked up, his heart skipped a beat. It turned out that he had already arrived at his shop.
Weng Juxian pulled Weng Zitang's ear and said angrily,""Where did he go? What time was it? It was almost ten o'clock, and she only wanted to come back. This was a restaurant? There's no share for you! Where's the chicken? I want the chicken you bought!"
Weng Zitang held Weng Juxian's hand that was pulling her ears with both hands.""My good wife, let go of me. If others see me, I'll look bad. If he wanted to fight, he would settle the score on the bed. Anyway, I owe you. Let go, ah!"
Weng Juxian's hand loosened, but she forced him to ask for the chicken. Weng Zitang was quick-witted and said that he had lent the money to someone. He said he would get it in the afternoon, but the interest was ten points. One chicken turned into two chickens in the afternoon. Where could he find such a cheap business! Wifey, wifey, your father has taken me in as your son-in-law, and he's already scheming all the way to the thirteenth level. Weng Juxian asked what if she didn't see the chicken in the afternoon? Weng Zitang proudly hummed the tune of a tanci,""Wifey, when I can't hand over two chickens, you can chop off my head to sacrifice to the flag. General, hand over the chickens on time in the afternoon, don't forget to record it on the military account.”Weng Juxian was amused. This woman who lost her virginity when she was young and no one wanted her had taken a fancy to this Weng Zitang. It was because he was both docile and knew how to make a face. Today, the commandment was opened and Weng Zitang was allowed to have lunch at home. He even had an extra glass of wine. It wasn't like there was an extra chicken. A shrew pitied a coward and a man with a flowery face.
During dinner, Weng Zitang's youngest daughter, Weng Fusha, looked at her father and chuckled. Her mother asked why. She said that he was praising her father for being a good firefighter. A few days ago, the Woodware Club was set on fire. It was all thanks to his father's water dragon's aim that the fire was put out and a huge disaster was averted. The eldest daughter, Fu Jing, also chimed in."Dad is just putting out the fire. He has D City in his heart!”Weng Zitang proudly boasted about how he had saved a few fires in the past twenty years. Without Weng Zitang, D City would have turned into a pile of rubble. He used his chopsticks to knock his youngest son, Fu Chang, on the head. It would be great if you had this ability of your father. Buy three taels of cotton to spin (interview) Who in this city is not convinced by your father! Otherwise, would your mother be willing to plant a fresh flower on my pile of cow dung! Your mother was very beautiful when she was young. Peach blossoms in March and peonies in April were nothing compared to chrysanthemum flowers in August. Delighted, the Chrysanthemum Fairy added another half a cup of yellow wine for him. Weng Zitang drank the wine and was so excited that he forgot what was going on. He narrowed his eyes and looked at his wife, saying that his water gun was not bad. Weng Juxian knew what he was talking about. It was not easy to beat him up in front of his children. Wouldn't his children hear what he was saying? She smiled and stepped on his foot under the table. Weng Zitang's instep was in so much pain that it felt like his bones were broken. Who wanted his mouth to slip? He could only endure the pain and smile bitterly at his wife.
Xu Jingfu was a man of his words. In the afternoon, he gave the promised money to Weng Zitang and asked him to write Song Jingzhong's name in the report. Weng Zitang frowned again and said,"Why do you have to do this?" Actually, if you didn't write it down and let Song Jingzhong's mother go on the streets every day to talk about that matter, we would have already put this matter around the necks of the three monkeys. Once the government investigated, the old woman took the lock herself. This was truly a blatant attack.”Xu Jingfu heard that it made sense and ignored it. In addition, he gave Weng Zitang two bottles of Huadiao wine and an old duck as a thank you gift for his intercession in the morning. Weng Zitang smiled and thanked him repeatedly. However, he thought to himself,"Xu Jingfu, Xu Jingfu, why don't you change this duck for two chickens so that I can complete my task smoothly?" Now, I have to buy another chicken and spend more money.
Weng Zitang thought about it. If he found someone else, wouldn't he have to give the ten stone rice to someone else? One more person meant one less cent. No way. Xu Jingfu was also an iron abacus in the business world. There were still accounts that he did not understand! It's better not to invite people to raise the price. If anyone takes more, let's see who Xu Jingfu will ask again. Who would say that they had taken too much money? After dinner, he told Chrysanthemum Fairy that he had eaten her wine and duck, so he had to run around for her. There would be no time to go home tonight. Chrysanthemum Fairy thought that it was right, but the time could not be unlimited. A man at night was a wild cat and could not be indulged. Weng Zitang was also a person who did not care about his life. The curfew had been issued, and they had to go home before midnight! She sat in the shop and waited! His wife's order was like a military order. He had always only had the obligation to carry it out and had no right to discuss it. He could only take the flashlight from his wife's hand and leave the shop.
There had never been a night market in D City. There were only two restaurants near the crossroad. One was on the straight street and the other was on the south street. In addition, there were two pastry shops near the crossroad of Wuqian Street. One specialized in soy milk and fried dumplings, while the other specialized in large wontons and lard-oil sand-sand dumplings. The people of D City did not sleep early. After dinner, they would visit each other. Some of them secretly played mahjong, sand crabs, and showdown. Big gambles were for money, while small gambles were to kill time. Those who didn't gamble sat around the table, drinking tea and chatting. The only entertainment venues were the Hongxing Teahouse and the temporary stage. There were not many people walking on the streets. There were no street lamps. The street was paved with five to six feet long and two feet wide stone slabs, and under the stone slabs was a drain. As time passed, some of the stone slabs had become loose. When pedestrians stepped on these stone slabs, they would make a clanging sound, especially at night.
One of the people Weng Zitang was looking for was Li Bokang, who lived under the white fruit tree outside the west gate. This person had also set up a cloth stall in the city before the Liberation. He only knew how to drink all day long and had drunk up all his capital. Relatives and friends refused to lend, so they had to go back home to farm and grow sweet potatoes, barely supporting the life of a family of four. After liberation, they were allocated a few acres of good land. Their children were also grown up and could help with the work in the fields. Only then did their lives get better. He had a good relationship with Weng Zitang, and he was good at calligraphy. One of them was Zhao Yiting, who lived under the children's bridge. He used to be a machine master at the power plant. After the power plant was blown up by the Japanese, he made a living by repairing gasoline lamps and keys. People called him "Foreign Coppersmith". After liberation, he entered the agricultural machinery factory and became a fitter. He made friends with Weng Zitang when he was young. Weng Zitang was a farmer and a worker, and they had been good friends for many years. The Great Party only believed in the words of the workers and farmers. Was there anything that could not be done? Fang Zhaorong, I don't believe that you, a scaredy-cat who relied on the cowardly county magistrate to become the hospital director, can still pretend to be a cadre and bully me. Hua Shijie, who asked you to be intimate with the Fei family's shrew, and you're also Hua Shiliang's younger brother. Can't they kick you and punch you? I don't care. I just want to relieve my sorrow and hatred. He first went to Zhao Yiting's house and wanted to ask Zhao Yiting to go to Li Bokang's house to discuss. The sweet potatoes were already on the market, so Li Bokang could taste the new ones. Coincidentally, Zhao Yiting went to Hangzhou to buy mechanical parts and would not be back until tomorrow. He had no choice but to go to Li Bokang's house alone. After crossing the Children's Bridge, he met the old Taoist priest Shi Mengde from the Ancestral Hall. Before he could ask, the old Taoist priest told him that the female demon had fallen ill under the pressure of the founder Bodhisattva. Boss Weng, your money is still white. He's naturally happy to hear that. He said to Shi Mengde,"Please ask the Ancestral Master Bodhisattva to suppress this demon to death. I'll give you more money." How much did the old Taoist priest say? Weng Zitang thought for a moment and wanted to say a fight. Shi Mengde shook his head. A cold laugh. Weng Zitang asked,"How much do you think it should be?" Shi Mengde casually said two stones when Weng Zitang asked him because his lover had recently asked him to take out two stones of rice money to marry his illegitimate child. When Weng Zitang heard this, his mouth opened wide as if he wanted to eat someone. Do you know how many heavenly soldiers and heavenly generals Shi Mengde has to send for a single life? Weng Zitang laughed." You useless old Taoist. The Fei family's girl is just a mortal with a sharp tongue. She's more than enough for a heavenly soldier. Aren't you from Shandong?" Shi Mengde said," Boss Weng, you must have mistaken the ginseng for the wrong one. Do you know that the founder Bodhisattva said in his dream that this girl is the reincarnation of a vixen? She's amazing." If you don't kill her, she will figure out that you are the one who wants to harm her in the future. Heh, it would be strange if she doesn't surrender to you instead. Weng Zitang was so scared that he stared at it for a while before he woke up. It was like the slap from that day. It was still a little painful. He calculated for a moment. Although his life was important, money was more important. He could not let so much money fly out of his pocket one by one! He could only beg Shi Mengde to tell him that there was no such thing as a bargain in this world. How about this, I'll give you three buckets. Shi Mengde shook his head. He said,"Sidou, it's up to you whether you want to do it or not. I don't have any more." You know that my wife has the final say in my family. She would turn the money into cash. Shi Mengde thought about it, but it didn't matter. He couldn't get oil out of a pot of chaff. The Drug Insect would spend half a day listening to a tune with a copper coin. It was enough for him to spend a lot of money to make a show! Today, he was able to catch a little bit of it, so he had these four buckets. The remaining one stone and six bushels of money could be scraped off the heads of other pestilences. He said,"I'll give you the rest. We're friends." Was this called spending ten taels of silver to buy a favor? When would he get the money? Weng Zitang said that people die for money. Shi Mengde was about to leave. When the Fei family demon died, he would have already flown away. Weng Zitang would have already cut off his braids. Who would pay and who would collect? "Drug Lord" drugged me. I won't do it! Weng Zitang quickly stopped Shi Mengde and said," How about this? I'll pay you two buckets in half a month, and then two buckets in another half a month." Alright then. Shi Mengde nodded his head and said,"If you don't pay, I won't ask the ancestors." He left after saying that.
Weng Zitang proudly strode forward. He was so happy. Hey, Fei girl, are you sick? You think I can slap you so easily? I have the support of the Ancestral Master Bodhisattva. I'm afraid of you, you vixen! He had never expected that Shi Mengde, who had gone to prepare medicine for his lover, would see Fei Guixiang registering for a cold at the hospital in the morning. As he walked, Weng Zitang felt a little regretful. After all, it was a life. Why bother? He had only slapped you once, but you had to give him your life. This was too sinful. I also have four children. I can't be too extreme. I'll leave some Yin virtue for my children and grandchildren. Moreover, four buckets of rice isn't easy to earn. I can't give it to you, I can't give it to you! My accusation is already enough to break up the lovebirds, enough for her vixen to cry. As he walked, he hummed the tune of Meng Jiangnu Looking for Her Husband.
There were no shops on either side of the street, only residential buildings. There weren't many people walking, so the street wasn't very smooth. Weng Zitang's eyesight was not very good, but he could not bear to turn on the flashlight. He just walked carefully step by step. The moon illuminated his back and painted his crooked figure on the road ahead. The streets were cold and empty on a lonely and quiet night. Occasionally, he stepped on the loose stone slabs, causing a series of clanging sounds.
