Chapter 18 A Kitchen Knife

"It's a bit of a gossip. I'm more useful than the emperor to speak. Now I'll ask your family to go..."

Song Wu laughed, "But the emperor can't even eat our Huaiyang pork head meat!"

Everyone laughed, and Lu Si felt that this was fine.

He dared to make a promise that Master Chongzhen had never eaten pork head meat.

"Okay, I've got you pork head meat, don't think it's too little. Lao Ma asked me to drink with the people in the county government... You can go to bed after you finish eating. This day, it's hard to work hard."

When Song Wu left, he nodded to Lu Si on the side. I guess this little cowardly named him a very deep impression.

"Fifth Master, go slowly, drink more!" Lu Wenliang stood up and watched Song Wu leave with a bowl, showing honesty in his bones.

"Hey, I'm afraid there are three or four taels!"

Jiang Kui weighed the pork head meat in the paper bag, opened it and smelled it, but did not eat alone, but shouted at everyone: "Everyone has a share, everyone will make a piece to taste."

"Jiang Dachangliang!"

Xia Dajun, who was with Jiang Kui, was the first to come over and put a piece of fat into his mouth, then chewed it in his mouth, then swallowed it in his stomach, and smacked his tongue, making it look so delicious.

"It's neither ugly nor ugly. It's really greedy. I'll go buy some food in two days. I'll be so greedy."

Xia Dajun said as he returned to the spot and continued to eat his vegetable soup to make rice. Others had smiles on their faces, and some people swallowed involuntarily, such as Lu Si and Guangyuan, the uncle and nephew, but no one came to eat the same meat as Xia Dajun because they were embarrassed.

"What? What's wrong with the family? At worst, I'll try it with me next time when you have meat. Come on, hurry up, it's cold outside."

After Jiang Kui said that, seeing that everyone still didn't move, he simply got up and went straight to them and picked up a piece for them.

"The little four son made a pig to eat,"

What Jiang Kui gave Lu Si was a piece of meat on the pig's lips, which was very tender. He added braised water and boiled it. It tasted fragrant and delicious when he was eaten into his mouth.

"I'm embarrassed, then Master Fifth, thank you!"

Lu Si sincerely thanked Jiang Kui, and couldn't wait to stuff the pig Gonggong into his mouth. He chewed it in one bite and swallowed it into his stomach like Xia Dajun just now.

Huaiyang pork head meat is really the most delicious food in the world.

Jiang Kui picked up another piece for Lu Wenliang and his son, and he had three pieces left in the bag and ate it by himself.

After eating, Lu Wenliang asked Guangyuan to help everyone wash the dishes, but he took a bucket of water and poured it into the pot to boil hot water.

It was cold outside, and everyone entered the shed, took off their dirty clothes and threw them directly on the ground next to the door.

Although the shed was very simple, more than ten people squeezed into it, and soon they didn't feel that it was getting cold.

Not long after, Lu Wenliang boiled hot water, Lu Si carried the wooden barrel and scooped it into the shed.

Just a wooden barrel for washing feet, you must take turns.

Xia Dajun, Zhou Wang and others went to the river to dig the dredge first, and the feet of several people soaked in hot water. First, they were soaked their mouths so hot that their mouths were crooked, and then they all called comfort.

After these people finished washing, Lu Si went to change the bucket of water again. In a short while, everyone washed their feet one after another.

Lu Si took a towel and just wiped his feet clean, and saw Zhou Wang changing into another set of clean clothes he brought from home.

"Tuesday, are you going to play again?" Xia Dajun sat in the quilt and looked at Zhou Wang.

Jiang Kui said in a muffled voice: "What's the point of betting? Winning is joy, and losing? If you don't bet, you win."

"I know, I don't gamble, I just go and have a look, I can't sleep anyway." Zhou Wang put on his shoes and walked out of the wooden shed.

Lu Wenliang originally wanted to call him, but he was not Zhou Wang's elder and couldn't say anything about him.

Lu Si shook his head secretly. Brother Zhou Er didn't know where he got the gambling addiction. He went to bet on the first day of the bet on Wang Si and his team. He did this every day, and he didn't come back until midnight. He didn't know whether this guy lost or won.

After Zhou Wang left, Jiang Kui suddenly said, "I'm afraid Zhou Wu lost a lot."

"What's wrong?"

The person who spoke was Gan Bingliang, who lives opposite Zhou Wang's house. He was not much different from Lu Si, but he was very brave and called "Ermao".

陆四印象中他和广远十几岁时就打过这甘二毛,原因是广远说要娶人家姐姐做婆娘,二毛就说广远是赖蛤蟆想吃天鹅肉,把个广远气的喊上老爷一块揍他.

But for some reason, after so many years, Gan Ermao's sister, who was two years older than him, never got married and became a famous old girl in the village. It was quite rare.

Jiang Kui shook the dust on the quilt and said, "Zhou Wang borrowed money from me yesterday, and I guess he was probably losing a lot."

Xia Dajun, who had already entered the bed, said "Ah": "He borrowed it from me too."

"I'm dead. I'm afraid this guy will lose a lot. He borrowed another 30 yuan from me this afternoon."

"I borrowed it from me the day before yesterday, but I didn't lend him."

“…”

Everyone was talking, and Zhou Wang actually borrowed money from seven or eight people. Needless to ask, this kid must have lost a lot.

"I have lost so much. I'll borrow from him and go to bet on you. He's so stupid!" Lu Wenliang was a little embarrassed. He watched Zhou Wang grow up.

Jiang Kui said: "Okay, don't say it anymore, just pretend you don't know. Anyway, don't lend him money anymore... His wife should know that he lost so much money, it would be strange if she didn't argue with him."

Gan Ermao said "Yeah": "I know, I can't even mention a word in front of his wife when I go back."

"Forget it, it's not much anyway. If he can, he will pay it back. If he can't pay it back, just think I'll lose two games."

Xia Dajun was a free and easy person. Since he had lent out the money and Zhou Wang had lost badly, it would be meaningless to think about when the money would be paid back.

The villagers in the village are another village who has been playing big since childhood, so it’s boring to make a fuss about some money. I just hope that Zhou Wang can stop, otherwise the hole will get bigger and bigger and you can’t even make up for it.

Everyone also sighed, sympathizing with Zhou Wang and not sympathizing with each other. No one knew how Zhou Wang, an honest man, could be gambling.

This person can be prostitutes, but he is cruel to lose his fortune when he gets involved in gambling.

After talking for a while, everyone went to bed one after another. After working on the masonry life for a day, they were all so tired that they seemed to be broken, so they didn’t have much energy to chat.

Soon, with the first snoring of Xia Dajun, the snoring in the wooden shed began to fluctuate, sometimes thunder, sometimes horns, sometimes low, and very lively.

Lu Si asked these people to snore and made them feel terrified. In addition, they have been to Huaian for seven days but have been staying in the canal as a coolie all day long. The road ahead is confused, so naturally they can't sleep for a while.

I wanted to go out for a walk, but I couldn't stand it, so I lay there thinking.

Sometimes I thought about what Li Zicheng was thinking, sometimes I thought about what Chongzhen was thinking about again, sometimes I wondered if Dorgon really stole his sister-in-law... In short, it was a mess.

I don’t know how long it took, but Lu Si was finally sleepy in a daze, but he vaguely heard someone pushing the door in.

Lu Si was shocked and immediately thought that Zhou Wang might have come back to sleep, but he didn't hear the other party taking off his clothes.

In the shed, there was no other sound except for the snoring of everyone.

Lu Si was very sleepy. He wanted to close his eyes and sleep, but he ignored what Zhou Wang was doing. However, he always felt something was wrong, so he forced himself to look up quietly.

It was so dark that I couldn't see clearly. There was someone sitting on the ground motionless, as if it was Zhou Wang.

This made Lu Si a little confused. He didn't understand what Zhou Wang was doing when he didn't sleep?

After thinking about it, he was still ready to call Zhou Wang, but at this time, a deliberately lowered voice came in outside: "Zhou Wang, come out, Master Wang wants to say a few words to you."

The voice is very familiar, it is Lu Xiaohuazi!

Zhou Wang, who was sitting on the ground, heard Lu Xiaohuazi's voice, and his body moved obviously, but he didn't say anything.

After waiting for a while, seeing that there was no movement inside, Lu Xiaohuazi's voice came in from outside: "The Fourth Master said if you don't come out, he will go in."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Wang was a little frightened. He turned his head to look at the sleeping people behind him, and walked out with a reluctant look on his face.

Just as Zhou Wang was just bringing the door, Lu Si heard a painful groan, as if Zhou Wang had been kicked in the chest or stomach.

"Go and talk there!"

Lu Si heard Wang Si's voice, which was different from what he heard on the ferry last time. This time, Wang Si's voice was obviously fierce.

Lu Si frowned. He didn't know how Zhou Wang offended Wang Si, but this man and he was a neighbor. The two families had a good relationship on weekdays, especially the original owner of his body, especially his son Dabao. In addition, Zhou Er's sister-in-law was also good, so Lu Si hesitated and gently got up from the bed, touched the door and picked up a piece of clothing on the ground, and wore it on his body.

He wanted to go and see, because he was afraid something happened to Zhou Wang.

But for some reason, at the moment when he was about to pull the door, Lu Si took the kitchen knife put together with the rice bag in his hand.

The knife was the one he brought from his home.
