Guo Ziyi sat on the steps in the courtyard for a while and was about to get up and leave. She stopped her uncle and asked, "Uncle, what's wrong with you? What happened at home? Why do you want me to keep these things?"

"Silver dollar? Can you explain it clearly to your nephew?" Guo Ziyi sighed: "If you tell me about family affairs and make people laugh, it's fine if you don't tell me. Quanfa and Cuiying will be entrusted to you from now on. I'm upset and want to go out and play for a while."

”.

Guo Quanfa took the mule and sent grandpa all the way, saying repeatedly: "Grandpa, can you not leave?" Guo Ziyi patted his grandson on the head and said, "Don't worry, grandpa won't die. Grandpa is just upset and wants to go out."

Wait for a while, go home and serve Cuiying well. If you are short of money, go to your father-in-law." The grandfather and grandson said goodbye in tears. Guo Ziyi rode on the mule and whipped the mule's buttocks, and the mule started running, raising its voice all the way.

The dust gradually moved away. Guo Quanfa wiped away his tears, turned around and saw his father-in-law standing behind him.

Calling Donkey's two sons are still young and studying in the private school of Twelve Neng. Nian Cuiying is Calling Donkey's eldest daughter. All dozens of acres of thin farmland are rented out to tenant farmers for farming. She concentrates on running Called Donkey's Tavern and has a shop on Fengqi Street.

There are not many rich families in the village. Although he is not the richest man in the village, he has a tavern and is quite famous. However, this is the first time he has seen so many silver coins. He is a little ecstatic and a little at a loss. It seems that his in-laws uncle

I was absolutely trusting him, otherwise I wouldn't have entrusted him with so many silver coins for safekeeping. Weng and his son-in-law poured the silver coins into a large vat and asked the donkey to cover the vat tightly with a stone slab. They were still worried.

The outside of the tank was covered with mud, and a lot of debris was brought to cover the big tank. Quanfa stayed at his father-in-law's house for a day, and then was sent home by his mother-in-law, who was worried about her daughter because Cuiying's delivery date was approaching.

After sending off his son-in-law, he called the donkey to Fengqi and continued to run his tavern. However, for some reason, he kept thinking about the jar of silver coins. He felt that it was not safe for his wife to stay at home alone. In troubled times, bandits

Thieves, beggars, robbers, and murderers can be seen everywhere. Headless murder cases are often found. Even Fengqi Town is not safe. Lifting the door and twisting the lock often happen... As I think about it, my mind wanders, and I have no intention of selling food.

I closed the door in the middle of the afternoon. After closing the door, I couldn't wait to go home. When I got home, I first checked whether the jar of silver coins had been moved. I couldn't fall asleep in the middle of the night with the dry cigarette pot in my mouth, so I poked my wife awake.

The wife rubbed her sleepy eyes and muttered: "What's wrong? You just want to live as long as you want, and the kids are not at home, so what do you have to worry about?"

He asked the donkey to flick the ashes of the cigarette pot on the wall of the kang, put a new cigarette in the pot, lit it with his live eyes, and then said: "You, I only know the sun, but I am worried about that jar of silver coins. I feel like I can't put it anywhere."

Safety".

My wife scolded the donkey for "shaobao" and said that those silver coins had been kept in the house of her in-laws, Guo Ziyi, for decades. Why were they never worried? Sleep peacefully, who knew our family was rich if we didn't say it? Don't say "There is no three hundred taels of silver here."

", play it safe.

But the donkey was still worried, so she got dressed, got off the kang, and wandered around the house with a sesame oil lamp on. The old woman sat up in a red wrap and asked the donkey: "You stay up in the middle of the night and wander around the house. What kind of nerve do you have?"

?

Calling the donkey said: "I want to find a safe place to bury the silver dollars in the ground." The old woman said: "We have a vegetable cellar in our yard. Move the big urn containing the silver coins into the vegetable cellar." Calling the donkey said: "

That won’t work, the vegetable cellar needs to be used to store vegetables in the winter. I want to dig a deep hole in the house and bury the jar of silver dollars underground.” My wife said, “You can dig it if you want, and I’ll help you dump the soil.”

"

So the old couple lit a sesame oil lamp and dug a hole in the house. The fresh soil they dug out was dumped in the yard. It looked very conspicuous. When they asked the donkey to go out the next morning, they saw the pile of fresh soil and felt a little uncomfortable. No, I picked up the shovel and shoveled the fresh soil into the vegetable cellar. It was already noon when I arrived at Fengqi. I waited until dark and rushed home again. I worked for several nights and finally got all the silver coins in the jar. Buried underground. Still worried about calling the donkey, he brought a lot of sundries and piled them up where the silver coins were buried.

The Donkey Tavern is diagonally across from Jishi Tang. Many things that happened in Jishi Tang are seen by Donkey Zi and kept in mind. He knows that Jishi Tang will eventually return to the hands of his son-in-law Guo's family. The iron abacus only pawned it for three years. Three years have passed in a blink of an eye. According to the strength of the Guo family, they are fully capable of redeeming the drug store. One son and one daughter have one heart. From the bottom of his heart, Lvzi hopes that his son-in-law and daughter will live well. When the son-in-law has a good life, his father-in-law will also feel honored. Liu Banxian The incident caused uproar in the city, and the situation has just calmed down. Seeing that a new gentleman has arrived in Jishi Hall, it feels fresh to call a donkey. Could it be that another half-baked charlatan has arrived?

The small town of Fengqi is all-encompassing, with new things happening every day. It was rumored that when Guo Mazi went to Chang'an for a meeting, peony was mixed with the orderlies. When Guo Mazi came back, he returned the peony to the brothel and beat the orderly to death in the monk trench. , someone took the steamed buns to the Monk's Trench to dig out the brains of the orderlies. Eating the brains can cure epilepsy. But when they got there, they saw no orderlies who were killed, only dug pits for people to be buried. Some people said that Guo Mazi Afraid that this incident would cause a sensation, they beat the orderly to death and threw him into a dry well. Some people said that the orderly was not dead at all and was let go by Guo Mazi... Rumors are rumors, but one thing is absolutely true. The real story is that after Peony was returned to the brothel, she refused to accept the guests and committed suicide by swallowing the gold! That morning, the madam came to the Donkey Tavern with a disgraced face and said she wanted to find two helpers, each of whom would pay one silver dollar. Needless to say, the brothel died. Otherwise, he wouldn't have paid such a high wage. After the madam left, he called the donkey and thought it was bad luck, so he pulled a piece of red cloth and hung it on the lintel.

Later, the person who buried her said that what was buried was indeed peony. The woman was wrapped in a piece of torn cotton wool and carried by two people to a door panel. When she went out, the madam specifically warned her not to throw away the door panel together. The men carried the peonies to Monk's Trench, where there happened to be a deep pit dug. The two of them threw the dead man into the pit. Before they could get away in time, they immediately pounced on several hungry dogs...

Calling Donkey has a strange disease. He can't sleep every night. When he walks, he always feels that there is a person behind him, but when he looks back, there is nothing there. Sometimes he falls asleep in a hazy state, always dreaming of bloody ghosts, and those ghosts surround him. Singing and dancing, sticking out a foot-long tongue... He woke up from the fright, sat up, and patted his head as usual. Fortunately, the guy who was eating was still there. He asked the donkey to light the oil lamp, one pot after another. He smoked on the ground, thinking that he had never lost anything to anyone in his life, so why were those ghosts and ghosts always pestering him? Looking at the donkey head simmering in the pot, he suddenly realized in his heart that the donkey was transformed into a ghost. It was strange that people were used to treating him like a donkey. The donkey is called "Ghost Donkey". I felt that this tavern could no longer be opened and had to change its business. The old ancestor left these three stores and made money from whatever he did. For a while, he pretended to be sick, closed the door and returned to Nian's house. Zhuang lived with him for a few days, but he still had dreams when he slept with his wife. He often woke up in the middle of the night screaming, which startled his wife.

My wife said: You may be possessed by some evil spirit, I will help you. So she brought a bowl of water, took three chopsticks, and let the chopsticks stand upright in the water bowl, unable to fall down, and kept chanting: "Thirsty"

Dead ghosts, hungry ghosts, tortured ghosts, unjust ghosts... No matter what kind of ghost they are, send them out, drive them out, and wait for someone else at the crossroads"! Then he took a knife, chopped it at the chopsticks, picked up the water bowl and put it in the yard

Turn around and sprinkle water outside the gate. After my wife tried this, I felt much better. In my sleep, I saw a female ghost crawling out of the tomb, wrapped around the body of the donkey like a snake.

, the donkey broke out in a cold sweat, sat up, his whole body was cold.

Calling Donkey's wife saw Calling Donkey losing weight day by day, so she persuaded Calling Donkey to go to the drug store to grab some Chinese medicine to try. Calling Donkey didn't believe the gentleman who was attending the clinic at Jishi Hall, so she rode a cow to Wang's Lao Lao and asked Mr. Wang to treat her.

He sees illness.

Mr. Wang and Called Donkey have been neighbors for many years, so of course they cannot be neglected. The two exchanged greetings, and then Called Donkey put his hand on the medicine pillow and asked Mr. Wang to diagnose his pulse. Mr. Wang asked about the symptoms in detail, and then said: "This

It's a mental illness, you may have encountered some trouble recently"?

Calling the donkey stopped talking, pretending to think, thought for a long time, and then shook his head: "I haven't encountered anything recently."

Mr. Wang said: "Your pulse is unstable, your mind is restless, and you seem to be thinking very hard."

Calling the donkey thought to himself, Mr. Wang is such a miraculous person that he can see into people's hearts all at once, but on the surface he still said adamantly: "I really don't have any thoughts, no."

Mr. Wang stopped talking, prescribed some tranquilizers for the donkey, left the donkey to eat, and then sent the donkey to the entrance of the village. Suddenly he said: "My neighbor, an old and pedantic man, has a piece of advice. I wonder if you will listen to it."

Calling the donkey replied: "Old man, if you have anything to say, just say it."

Mr. Wang only said one thing: "Take property and worldly affairs lightly, and treat people lightly."

He asked the donkey to ride on the back of the ox. As he walked, he thought: That jar of silver coins was stored in Guo Ziyi's house for his grandson. He couldn't have any ideas whatsoever...

After returning home, my wife cooked the medicine for the donkey, and asked the donkey to take Mr. Wang's medicine. He didn't dream all night and slept until dawn.

News came from Guoyu Village that her daughter had given birth to a fat boy. She asked a donkey to rent out all the land. Since the family did not feed any livestock, they borrowed a donkey and asked his wife to ride on the donkey's back. He pulled the donkey's tail and went to Guoyu Village.

Visiting my daughter and grandson. When I entered the courtyard of the Guo family, I saw Guo Shanren standing in the yard. I couldn't help saying hello to my in-laws. Guo Shanren's face was uglier than pig liver. Not only did he ignore the call for donkey, but he also spit on the ground. Called donkey.

Understand, Guo Shanren must have already known about that load of silver coins. If you know, you will know. The old man personally carried the silver coins to his house. He called the donkey and did not rob others. Who calls you Guo Shanren, an old man?

You ignored me, but I still took care of you. I saw my daughter was here. This is a family relationship that is cut with a steel knife. You, Guo Shanren, have a stomachache? You deserve it!

At night, the old couple called Donkey while sleeping in Guo Ziyi's study. They heard the cries of babies coming from the east and west buildings at the same time. The old couple secretly laughed that Guo Shanren's grandson and his youngest son were born on the same day, so they were called donkeys.
