Chapter 42 The man in the hat(1/2)
Have any difficulties?
Wutong tilted her head and thought for a while, it seemed that maybe, it should be.
after all,
The man told him that he would come early in the morning, but it was almost noon and he didn't see any figure. He contacted the man's behavior a few days ago, so he probably didn't mean it.
"Um."
Wutong responded again.
Lao Hu sighed with a bitter face. He didn't know what he remembered again in his heart. He threw the tea stains left in the tea cup to the ground and cursed:
"This world of thieves is peaceful on the surface, but who can understand how many things are there in this peaceful and prosperous era?
Those officials didn't care. The big men in this royal city wouldn't really come to check government affairs regularly. They would think of a few ideas at will, and they would naturally promote their reputation.
As for those immortals and knights, a group of thieves who have high self-esteem, I want to tell me that most of the peaceful days of this Great Chu State were torn apart by these madmen.
well,
Pitiful,
Poor,
How many families in this world are broken? I'm here, alas, I won't talk anymore, girl, listen to my grandfather's advice, this person needs to be more attractive, and only then will he have hope if he lives."
After all, I have been a veteran for decades. I have gone to many places, learned a lot, and understood more than ordinary people. But sometimes I know more, but it is not necessarily a good thing.
After cursing, Lao Hu looked around and saw that no one came to argue with him, and his emotions were almost the same. He immediately stopped when he saw that he was getting better, and came to Wutong and whispered:
"Girl, I think your brother should have been delayed when something happened. It's not a solution for you to wait like this. Otherwise, you can go to my tea shop and wait on both sides;
I can still take a break. You little kid are young and don’t know anything. When I joined the army, many people fainted while standing. When I was a soldier, they never got up again."
In fact, this kind of death is caused by the wrong standing posture. If the brain is not supplied with enough blood, it is easy to faint. If it is more serious, it will be true that it will be caused by death.
Wutong frowned slightly, she didn't understand. She could still stand there for someone else, but when she saw the old man in the tea shop talking carefully, she thought about it, and then took her own feet and followed the old man to the tea shop.
As soon as he walked over, the guest near the table outside had already stood up. When he saw Lao Hu leading a fair girl back, he was not surprised. Instead, he paid the tea and chatted casually, and walked out of the city.
These tea lovers are acquaintances. They know Lao Hutou's hobbies and don't think anything wrong. Instead, the man wearing a hat on the inner table looked here a few more times, but didn't say anything.
Lao Hutou wiped the tabletop, then deliberately wiped the bench, and made sure it had been wiped clean, then pointed to Wutong and said, "Sit, sit here."
Wutong sat up, holding her cheeks with both hands, her eyes still looked at the direction where Nan Ke left yesterday, frowned from time to time, as if she was worried, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth after a while.
She came alone in the past few years. She usually went to the forest without any trouble, and she also went to the forest if she had trouble. Compared to the time she spent with people in towns or villages, she got more with that group of animals.
For her, the forest is more like home. As for human society, the so-called Great Chu is like a teahouse. For ordinary people, they are all in their leisure time, and they used to spend time to polish the boundaries of time.
But there is a difference between humans and animals after all;
When getting along with people and animals, the experience and feelings are completely different.
She had thought about this kind of problem before, because she had to choose, she must have chosen to live in the forest. Perhaps, if the traffickers from Qinghe Village had happened to be caught by her.
She may have maintained her previous life habits for the rest of her life, and spent most of her time in the forest with animals. Only when she feels bored will she come to the city to stroll around and have some interaction with others.
Moreover, these intersections are just meeting each other, or saying a few words, and using their own way to deal with the kindness or malice that comes from this "tea house".
For example, now, the old man in this tea shop expressed kindness like her, and she would send some back with the flow. Although she didn't understand many principles and accidents, she was smart;
Although she doesn't understand some principles and methods, it does not mean that she will not use them.
For example, before, although she didn't understand why people should emphasize each need when doing things together, it did not prevent her from using this principle when she first contacted Nan Ke.
But I don’t know why, maybe it was because the things I experienced with Nan Ke and the time I spent together were all considered to be a record for her, so this feeling was particularly profound.
So she even had the idea of not going back to the forest for the time being, but following this person to see what different scenery there is in this "restaurant".
Thinking of this, Wutong frowned again, picked up a cup of tea in front of her, but did not drink it, but clenched it in her hand and muttered:
"One day, just wait for one day. If I don't see you today, I will go back by myself."
He said he was muttering, but the complaint was heard by Lao Hutou next to him. Lao Hutou smiled "hehe" and wiped his sleeves and rubbed the tabletop, grinning and grinning:
"Girl baby, I see your clothes are pretty."
"Thank you grandpa." Wutong was not really stupid either. She had been wandering around outside for several years. Since she had accepted the love of others, she was embarrassed to act like she would not be allowed to enter the stranger.
Lao Hu's heart was sweet when he was called "Grandpa". His mouth was about to bend under his ears, revealing a row of yellow teeth, which was not annoying, but it was a bit interesting.
"No thank you, no, you should thank you brother." Old Hutou pursed his lips and said slowly: "It's not a big shot to nag. It's probably not easy for your brother to raise you alone if you have lost your parents when you have been young.
You said, right?"
Wutong recalled the scene where Nan Ke was in the ruins, moving stone bricks to pick up money, and shook his head, "It's not that difficult, right."
Although it takes some physical effort, you can pick up money by moving some stones. Although it doesn’t have much money, it is definitely not related to the difficulty.
"..." Old Hu frowned and thought for a while, and said, "Since it's easy to make money, you must take risks in this matter. Isn't that wrong?"
Wutong nodded when she heard this.
"That's right!" Old Hu breathed a sigh of relief and felt like he had entered his own field again. "You, you are not young. Your brother is taking risks outside for this family. You little girl movies should be more sensible.
What are you muttering just now? I heard the old man. Although we have just met for the first time, there are some things that the old man must say, this is for your own good and for your brother. Don’t think I’m talking too much.”
Speaking of this, Lao Hutou seemed to feel that something was missing. He wanted people to convince him, especially if he wanted these dolls to convince him. He could not just say it himself, but he had to find someone to echo him.
After looking around, I saw that there was only one person left in my tea shop. Although I had never seen this person before, the noodles in the tea shop were definitely not much thinner. I could chat with everyone from all over the world, so I said to the man:
"Brother, you look like you are also a sportive dress. Tell me, old man, are you right? What I said just now?"
The man wearing a straw hat seemed to raise his head when he heard this, glanced at Wutong, then looked at Lao Hu's head, and after a while, he said, "It's reasonable."
"Hey, I'll just say it."
With someone talking, Lao Hutou seemed to be more excited.
"You talk about these dolls, you are still a little younger. This principle still requires us elderly people to teach them more."
Lao Hu turned his head and smiled at Wutong twice, added a bowl of tea to himself, then stood up and walked to the stall, took a pot of new tea and delivered it to the table of the man in the hat.
"Brother, I saw you coming out for a long time early this morning, and it was not easy. This tea is what the old man gave you."
"More bosses." The man in the hat thanked him.
Lao Hu nodded with satisfaction, turned around and sat back next to Wutong. He was about to continue his preaching, when he saw Wutong frowning and staring at the man in the hat, thinking that she was not convinced, he immediately said:
"Little baby, look, I'm not an old man, I'll cheat you. This uncle is also a world-class person who looks at his dress. He knows a lot, and what he says must be a bit reasonable.
You, you have to learn in the future and share more troubles for your brother. Don’t always act like a child. Only when the family is united can you live a prosperous life;
Otherwise, even if you don’t lack food and clothing, your life will be meaningless. What’s the difference between finding a forest to get into and living alone for the rest of your life?”
"Not different from one person?"
Wutong looked at Lao Hu and asked, and this was what she said to her heart.
"you do not say?"
Lao Hu wiped his mouth and asked:
"Is this a truth clear?"
"I understand."
"Hey, it's a good boy!"
Lao Hutou smiled with satisfaction, turned around and looked at the man in the hat again. Seeing a notice on the table, he stood up and walked over and took a closer look. He immediately smashed his mouth and said:
"I heard that someone made a mistake yesterday?"
There is a notice posted by the city gate, but Lao Hu is usually too lazy to see it. After all, the notice is posted by the door for almost 365 days a year. Does he still have the intention to see it every day?
Besides, even if he didn't go to see the news, he would naturally know the news. Who told him that there were many people in the teahouse? There were always some topics to drink tea. After a while, he listened to all kinds of things.
For example, the big event in the city last night, although he didn't go to read the Notice or read any notice, he did know that there was something like this than most ordinary people in the city.
The man in the hat seemed to be in a daze. After asking for a long time, he realized that he seemed to be a little unwilling to talk to him, but after he hesitating for a while, he still handed the notice to Mr. Hu, "Look at it yourself, I have committed a big deal."
The old man in the tea shop received the notice. The content of this notice was richer than the anti-essay posted in other places. In addition to the portrait of Nan Ke, he also mentioned specific reasons.
As soon as the four words "Murder the Official" were printed, Lao Hutou immediately put down the notice and said with lingering fear: "I'm good, why is this man so brave?"
This is the official magistrate. Even the people in the martial arts world are afraid of any conflict with this official magistrate. This thief is really brave. Killing official magistrate in the city is not a slap in the face of the yamen! "
Wutong also swept her eyes over at this time. As soon as she looked, her little face suddenly tightened.
The man in the hat raised his head and poured the tea that Lao Hu had just added to him into a bowl, then opened the hem of the hat and drank the bowl of tea in one gulp.
then,
After breathing a sigh of relief, he said:
"Who said no, I think... I've been living in the world over the years, and I've seen many people who dare to yell at the yamen because of their family's strength, but I've never seen this conflict and kill them!"
"Oh."
When Lao Hutou heard this, he looked at the man in the hat, stood up and went to the stall to make a pot of cooked tea, put it on the table of the man in the hat, and sat next to him, holding some fried tea in his hand.
He has been guarding a tea shop for many years, and he has seen many people. Whoever has the food in his stomach and is holding it hard to pull it hard. It is obvious at a glance that although the man in the hat doesn't speak much, when he just said that when he said that, Lao Hu knew that he had met someone in his stomach.
To be continued...
