"Who's looking for me?"

Meng Shaoyuan yawned and stretched.

"I didn't know, so I just said my name was Sun Qingsheng and that I had something to ask for."

Sun Qingsheng?

I do not know.

Meng Shaoyuan thought for a while: "Bring him in."

The man who came in was a man in his forties. From his appearance, he looked like a man from the world.

Holding a fist: "Excuse me, are you Boss Meng?"

"it's me."

"I've met Boss Meng." Sun Qingsheng said politely: "I am the disciple of Mr. Jinghu."

The old man from Jinghu?

Jang In-kyu?

Didn’t this just let his people go?

Meng Shaoyuan was also very polite: "It turns out that I am a disciple of the old lady Jinghu. I'm disrespectful."

He still respects Zhang Renkui quite a lot.

After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, his old husband staged the last stage of his legend in Shanghai.

In order to attack Zhang Renkui's unyielding will and force him to stop contributing to the war of resistance, Japanese invader Yano Yaoichi sent someone to send Fan Yuan a letter of challenge.

Zhang Renkui, who was nearly eighty years old, was so arrogant about destroying the Japanese invaders that he picked up the scythe that had been with him throughout his life for the last time.

Under Yano's murderous provocation, the old man remained calm and moved like a thunderbolt, hitting Yano's wrist acupuncture points with the handle of the knife repeatedly, forcing the opponent to abandon the knife in just two rounds.

After Yano's defeat, he still persisted in his evil intentions. After that, he repeatedly threatened and lured Zhang Renkui and promised him an official position. However, the old man remained unmoved and scolded the Japanese invaders every time with harsh words and harsh words.

"Old Mrs. Jinghu has admired Boss Meng's reputation for a long time. Every time he wanted to meet him, he never got the chance. He sent me here today. Mr. Jinghu wanted to find some time to prepare some wine and entertain Boss Meng. I wonder when Boss Meng will be free?"

Having said this, Sun Qingsheng hurriedly added: "If Boss Meng is busy with official duties and cannot get away, the old man will pay a visit in person."

I guess it was to express gratitude to myself for freeing his disciples before, right?

Meng Shaoyuan thought for a moment and looked at the time: "Let's do it now."

"Now?"

Sun Qingshan was startled.

It's already past 10 noon.

Then he hurriedly said: "That's very good. I'll go back to the old man and make some preparations."

"what to prepare?"

Meng Shaoyuan stood up with a smile and took out two packages of things from the drawer: "Let's go, let's go, there is no need to disturb his old man, let's go together now."

"this……"

Sun Qingsheng looked embarrassed: "I'm afraid..."

"There's nothing wrong with it." Meng Shaoyuan said with a smile: "If the old man blames you, just say that I forced you to do this."

…

After Zhang Renkui retired from the military, he has been living in "Fanyuan" in Shanghai.

Just at the gate of Fanyuan, there were eight disciples standing. Each one was dressed in shorts, with his clothes open and a wide belt around his waist, with a dagger stuck on one side and a revolver stuck on the other.

What Zhang Renkui was guarding against was not just the Jianghu people, but also the Japanese.

"Brother Sun is back."

As soon as he saw Sun Qingshan, the leader immediately came up and said respectfully.

Sun Qingshan pulled him over and whispered a few words.

The man's expression changed, and he was also full of astonishment.

It took him a while to react, and he shouted hurriedly:

"Open the front door!"

The main door opened, eight bodyguards stood in two rows, and the leader yelled:

"The distinguished guest has arrived!"

Sun Qingshan stretched out his hand:

"Boss Meng, please!"

…

Zhang Renkui set up a small table in the yard and was about to eat when he suddenly heard one voice after another:

"Open the front door!"

The old man was also stunned.

Who is so bold as to open the front door without authorization?

Who has such a big reputation to open the front door?

You must know that when Du Yuesheng came to visit, he only opened a side door.

I remember that the last time the main gate was opened was during the Battle of Songhu. Chen Cheng pretended to come to visit him during his spare time during the battle, and then he opened the main gate.

Why are these disciples and disciples so brave today? They opened the main door without even reporting to me?

Immediately, Sun Qingshan was seen taking the lead in coming to the courtyard:

"Shanghai Special Office, Chief Meng Shaoyuan has arrived!"

ah?

Zhang Renkui was startled again.

Meng Shaoyuan?

Why did he come at this time?

No wonder, he had specifically told Sun Qingshan to open the front door on the day he entertained Meng Shaoyuan.

He quickly stood up and glared at Sun Qingshan: "You're just messing around, why don't you say hello in advance?"

"Old Master, you made the mistake of blaming Third Brother Sun. I didn't let him report to you!"

Meng Shaoyuan walked in behind with a smile, carrying two bags and clasping his fists: "Meng Shaoyuan has met the old man."

"Oh, sir, Chief Meng."

Zhang Renkui hurriedly greeted him: "Sir Meng is so proud to be here, but it really caught me off guard."

Meng Shaoyuan said with a smile: "As soon as I heard that the old lady wanted to invite me to dinner, I rushed over as fast as I could."

"Okay, okay, Sir Meng is so proud!"

Meng Shaoyuan's character has a strong appetite for Zhang Renkui: "Come here, tell the kitchen to prepare the dishes!"

"Don't." Meng Shaoyuan stopped him and said, "Isn't it time for the old man to eat? There are wine and vegetables, what else are you preparing in particular?"

There was a large bowl of rice on the small dining table, a slice of winter bamboo shoots and meat, a cold cucumber, a mushroom soup, and a small pot of wine. It was very simple.

Zhang Renkui looked troubled: "How can we entertain Chief Meng with this kind of food?"

"Old Master, this is wrong." Meng Shaoyuan didn't care: "It depends on the person when it comes to drinking. If the person is right, there will be a table full of delicacies even if there are no dishes. But if the person is wrong, the delicacies from the mountains and seas will be tasteless."

"well!"

Zhang Renkui was overjoyed: "Mr. Meng is a wonderful man, and everything he says is full of witty words. I, Zhang Renkui, have lived for most of my life, and this is the first time I have met such a wonderful man like Chief Meng. Please, please, prepare bowls and chopsticks, and keep the jar I have hidden."

Bring me the wine!"

Meng Shaoyuan sat down and opened the two packages in his hand: "Old man, I also have some food to go with wine. One package is serious Shaoxing fennel beans, and this package is candied fruit from Guanshengyuan, which is perfect for drinking."

"Yep."

Zhang Renkui couldn't help but be happy.

He has been in the world for most of his life, and everyone respects and awes him, and is very careful when speaking. Where has he ever met Meng Shaoyuan, who did not regard him as the old man of Jinghu, but as an ordinary friend?

When we met for the first time, it was like we were old friends who we had known for many years.

Zhang Renkui's status in the world was far higher than that of Du Yuesheng. He was always careful when speaking, for fear of saying the wrong thing and making the old man unhappy.

Meng Shaoyuan's casualness was truly what Zhang Renkui had in mind.

His disciples, disciples, and grandsons all looked at each other in astonishment.

The old man is usually very frugal, but whenever guests come, he will do his best to entertain them. Sometimes even serving eight cold dishes and eighteen hot dishes makes God dissatisfied and feels that the guests are being neglected.

Is it better to drink fennel beans with candied fruit today, or did the guests bring them themselves?
