In the west room of the main house, which was converted into a small study room by Butler Wei, my grandfather and Jin Da were sitting at a tea table, facing each other. My grandfather was busy making tea, and Jin Da sat opposite and watched.
.
"This is trouble drinking tea."
Jin Da looked at where my grandfather was busy, and he really felt that it was troublesome just to drink water, so what? Moreover, it was still bitter, not as good as wine.
"Drinking tea depends on the state of mind. If the mind is not calm, the taste will not be tasted."
As soon as my grandfather heard what Jinda said, his hand movements stopped, and then he started busy making tea again, but he was talking to Jinda while he was busy.
"I don't like this, I can't get used to it, it's bitter."
Jin Da shook his head. He really didn't like drinking. His master liked it very much. However, his master's method of drinking was different from this. It was just a big vat. He could grab a handful at a time and pour boiling water over it. It was quite good.
fragrant.
(Hint: His master is my great-grandfather)
"This is the best black tea, Lapsang Souchong, not bitter."
My grandfather smiled and put a few pieces of rock sugar into the big teapot while talking. This time, the snack was no longer bitter. It wasn't bitter in the first place. It tasted sweet this time.
"Then hurry up."
Jinda saw that my grandfather had put rock candy in it and knew that it shouldn't be bitter, but he still found it troublesome, so he also urged my grandfather to hurry up.
"I have an idea."
My grandfather finally made the tea. He first poured a cup for Jinda and then a cup for himself. While pouring the tea, he slowly spoke to Jinda.
"Well, you say."
Jin Da picked up the tea cup and after saying yes, he started to drink the tea. He planned to drink the tea while listening to what my grandfather said.
"Don't you want to go back to the mountains? Then leave tomorrow. Tomorrow you take the people and drive the cart to purchase with Butler Wei. Then you find an opportunity and take the people directly at the big market."
My grandfather picked up the tea cup, took a sip of tea to moisten his throat, and then told Jin Da about his plan. Butler Wei and my grandfather discussed it today. It is safer to go to Jin Da this way. The shamans must be keeping a close eye on it now.
It's tight, and the shamanism has just wiped out the three gangsters, so we can relax a little bit. This is the best time for Jin Da and the others to leave.
"They'll find someone to keep an eye on us."
Jin Da looked at my grandfather. He knew that the shamans had been eyeing the Yue family, and because of Bai Diao's death, the shamans would not let go of the people who were helping the Yue family. It was normal for some people to keep an eye on the Yue family.
"It's okay. I'll let Butler Wei lead the people to make purchases at the big market. You and the people will look for opportunities to separate little by little."
My grandfather also knew that the Yue family was being watched at all times. Wasn't there a white ferret just now? It wouldn't be surprising if someone was looking at the Yue family from this far away, so my grandfather and Butler Wei both considered it.
"Then we have to shake off our tail first after we go out, and ask Lao Wei to mobilize all the locals at the big market. The movement needs to be very loud. They find that there are missing people. How do you explain it?"
Jin Da also thought about it after my grandfather and the others thought about it, and felt that it was not impossible. Moreover, he originally planned to leave tonight, but now it is obvious that it is not possible. The fastest way to leave now is for my grandfather and the others.
That's the way to go, so Jin Da thought it was okay to give it a try, but the secret would be revealed as soon as they left the Yue family. The number of people was reduced by half, and the shamanistic spies wouldn't be able to tell it right away.
"This is already the case, what else is there to explain? Besides, who should I explain to? Shamanism?"
My grandfather was stunned for a moment, and then he understood why Jin Da asked this. Jin Da was afraid that it would be difficult for my grandpa and the others to escape. But now my grandpa and the others don’t have extravagant hopes of escaping. Anyway, this is the case. It depends on what happens next.
Well, doing their best and obeying fate is their truest portrayal.
"Haha, that's right, I was wrong."
After listening to my grandfather's words, Jin Da looked at my grandfather's face again. My grandfather's face was calm. He knew that my grandfather and the others were ready to give it a go. Youdao is that the soft are afraid of the hard, and the hard is hard.
They are afraid of those who are violent, and those who are violent are afraid of their own lives. My grandfather and the others just put life and death aside now, so naturally they don't need to care about the thoughts of shamanism.
"Brother Jin, just listen to me. As soon as you hit the road, run as fast as you can and don't stop."
What my grandfather was most afraid of was that Jinda was hesitant. He didn't want Jinda to go down there with those three gangsters. If something happened to Jinda, my grandpa would be too embarrassed to go down to see my great-grandfather.
"Then what are you going to do with the boss? It's impossible for them to follow you into the customs. I've never heard of people from the old forest entering the customs. This is their ancestral precept."
Jin Da looked at my grandfather with a concerned look on his face, thought for a moment, and felt that the boss should follow him at this time. They all wanted to go into the mountains, and they were on the same route. He also thought about the special nature of the boss,
I asked my grandpa, and his idea was to help my grandpa send the old man's head safely into the mountains. Wouldn't this save my grandpa trouble?
"I don't know what the boss is thinking, and I didn't hear him say he was leaving. It's hard for me to say anything. I'll just take it one step at a time."
My grandfather shook his head. My grandfather was also very surprised. This old leader was supposed to go back, but he didn't hear any intention of leaving during this whole journey. The head of the Lu family himself is from a noble family in Guanli and Shandong. Xu
Since the great minister has chosen to accept my family’s invitation, it means that he will enter the customs with our family.
However, this old leader cannot enter the customs. Their ancestors have ancestral precepts and do not allow their descendants to enter the customs. This old leader will definitely not enter the customs, but it will be difficult to escape in the later stages. My grandfather is thinking
The old boss has some way to escape, but he has never figured it out.
"Well, I originally wanted you to ask if they were following us, but after hearing what you said, this old boss has his own plans, so forget it. Anyway, remember, ask the boss
Do things thoroughly.”
When Jin Da heard that the boss had never mentioned leaving to my grandfather at all, Jin Da couldn't open his mouth. If you ask the boss now, isn't it the same as asking him to leave?
"Well, I woke up."
My grandfather picked up the teapot and poured tea for Jin Dahe himself.
My grandfather and Jin Da were drinking tea and chatting here, while the Huang family had just had dinner.
The dining room in the Huang family house is a converted room. There is a room extending outside the kitchen. This room is just connected to the main house. It is convenient for eating and other things. Moreover, Mr. Huang is a person who knows how to enjoy himself.
It was also very comfortable. In order to make his home look different from ordinary Northeastern families, Mr. Huang resolutely refused to eat on the fire kang, so he spent a lot of money to buy good dining tables and chairs. According to him,
This is how city people eat.
In the Huang family's restaurant, the Huang family's father and son were sitting at the table. Four maids and an old woman were waiting on the side. The three father and son were eating, and none of them said a word. They were all eating their own meals. The dining table
