1.12 Pan Jinlian asked for directions by throwing stones
Ximen Qing dismounted from his horse and asked, "Who is this distinguished guest?"
Lai Jue replied respectfully: "It's the Master of the Earthly Cooking Star and the Martial Star who has arrived."
Ximen Qing felt funny in his heart. I guess no one in Qinghe County now dares to mention Wu Dalang's former nickname "Three-inch Dinggu Tree Bark", right? Imagining the funny faces of countless villains who are arrogant in front and respectful in the back, I can't help but
Zhu laughed loudly: "It turns out that martial arts brother is here!"
Taking three steps and two steps at a time, Ximen Qing hurried to the living room. When he entered the door, he saw Wu Dalang sitting coyly on the seat, with several family members around him serving him with their hands folded. But looking at Wu Dalang's expression as if he was being tortured, he knew
At the moment, he couldn't bear the sudden weight that came upon him in his life. The more respectful others were to him, the more guilty and short-tempered he felt and how flattered he felt.
As soon as he saw Ximen Qing, Wu Dalang let out a sigh of relief, as if a heavy burden had been lifted off his body, and his whole body felt lighter. In addition to being grateful for this Ximen official who suddenly broke into his life, Wu Dalang
He was grateful, not because Ximen Qing helped him turn the cooking cakes into dozens of taels of silver yesterday, making him a big windfall, but because he could feel that deep in Ximen Qing's eyes, there was no ordinary person hiding the flattery.
The teasing and ridicule behind the scenes is only equality and sincerity.
Ximen Daguan really regarded Wu Dalang as a human being! Not a plaything!
Having lived in this world for almost thirty years, Wu Dalang has never seen such warm eyes in the eyes of anyone except his own brother Wu Song. Not only has he encountered them these days, but the owner of these eyes is also compassionate.
Like a god who saves the suffering, he fished him out of the previously dark sea of suffering where he didn't know where to end. Now that the word "Wu Dalang" is mentioned in Qinghe County, who dares to look down at him again?
Giving others benefits is just a temporary temptation. Only by giving others respect can you truly win people's hearts! Of course, if you give benefits and respect at the same time, you will be invincible.
At least now Wu Dalang has deeply felt in his heart that there are not enough officials in Ximen - from now on, if the officials in Ximen are useful for other purposes, they will go through fire and water, even if they die! Although Wu Dalang is only three inches of Dinggu tree bark, although Wu Da is not as good as his brother Wu Er
They have good skills, but the blood of the Wu brothers is hot!
But - thinking of his wife Pan Jinlian's words last night, Wu Dalang's hot-blooded heart suddenly became cold again.
Just last night, he was full of wine, left the Lion House, picked up the burden of cooking cakes, and ran home in one breath with the wind blowing under his feet. He looked back so many times along the way, and he had no idea how much luck he had in the corners of the streets.
There is no other reason to be angry. There are two hundred coins in his bag of cooking cakes. He has never personally captured so much money in his whole life at Wuhan University - he is afraid of being robbed.
When he arrived at the door of the house, Wu Dalang called out as usual: "Sister-in-law, open the door!" Suddenly he felt that the voice was too high. If a thief was invited, would it be okay? So when he called the second time, the sound was like stealing a scent.
The little thief who stole jade has a lot to offer.
Unexpectedly, this sound made Pan Jinlian inside the door pay attention, fearing that some fool pretended to be Wuhan University and came to deceive the door. The woman picked up the mallet used for washing clothes with her backhand and said coldly through the door.
He asked: "Who are you?"
Wu Dalang murmured in a bird's voice: "I am the Dalang, sister-in-law, please open the door." His looking around made others see that he was either a thief or a thief, and Pan Jinlian became even more suspicious when he heard this.
One wanted to come in, but the other didn't dare to let in, so they held on through a double door. Wu Dalang had a net worth of 200 yuan by his side, and he felt that if he stayed in this dark night for a moment longer, he would be in danger for a moment longer, so he had no choice but to spend all he had on weekdays.
After a few private conversations between you and me, Pan Jinlian spat, then opened the door and let him in.
After entering the door and locking it again, Pan Jinlian had already smelled the strong smell of alcohol, so she cursed bitterly: "You fool! It's only been thirty days since January at home, and there's not even a meaty boy here.
I can’t smell it, but you have some spare money to go out and drink?”
Wu Dalang smiled apologetically and said, "Sister-in-law, don't be upset! Today, I didn't buy the wine myself, someone invited me! I earned a lot of money from selling cooking cakes, and I spent all my time as a guard messenger. If you don't believe me, count it!"
While Pan Jinlian reached for the money in the pancake load, she taunted Wu Dalang and said: "You fool! Even if everyone in Qinghe County is invited to have a drink, it's not your turn... Oops! I
Grandpa Tian!" It turned out that the woman touched the fat robe, took it out and tore it open, and was dazzled.
"This, this, this! Did you steal this? Or..." I was about to say, "Or robbed it?", but when I thought about my man's pitiful strength, I realized that he could still be a powerful general in an ant hole.
Among the robbers, he was not even half a hero, so he changed his mind, swallowed the word "rob", and said, "...or did you pick it up?"
Wu Dalang endured for a long time just to see his wife's frightened expression. When he saw it, he was so happy that he said: "Sister-in-law, don't make fun of me, your man has earned this with his own ability!"
"You?!" With just one word, Pan Jinlian successfully destroyed all Wu Dalang's self-confidence. In desperation, Wu Dalang told everything about today's experience, especially the "Earth Chef Star"
"Three words, mentioned again and again, talked about again and again.
Pan Jinlian listened silently, until Wu Dalang's mouth went dry and there was no new meaning in his words. In the end, he even repeated the old meaning again and again, and then he slowly said: "Brother, this money is not embarrassing!"
Wu Dalang was stunned: "Why isn't this embarrassing?"
Pan Jinlian said: "As for the senior official of Ximen, I also heard from Wang Ganniang from our neighboring tea house that he came back to life yesterday. This is a strange thing. What's even more strange is that he actually said what kind of person you are.
A local chef who is on par with him! You should also think about it, what kind of family is he? What kind of family are we? There must be a plan for treating others with courtesy!"
Wu Dalang said blankly: "What else can he want from me? It's just this burden of cooking cakes!"
Pan Jinlian said bitterly: "Idiot! Idiot! I don't know if you are really confused or just pretending to be confused? Are you proud of forcing your wife to say it herself? What I want to say is - he is after the people in your house!
"
"Ah!" Wu Dalang sat down on the floor, "This...I think the official Ximen's eyes are very straight. Isn't this impossible?"
"He's a piece of shit!" Pan Jinlian scolded and said bitterly, "Wang Ganniang told me that Ximen Qing was hooked up with Ying Huazi, Sun Duzui and other villains, and Zhenri's family was a prostitute in Qinghe County.
People say he is a 'tiger on the mountain and a west gate on the mountain'. He is compared with the big insect on Jingyanggang. Where can he go?"
Seeing Wu Dalang lowering his head and saying nothing, Pan Jinlian said again: "Ever since I married you, a group of treacherous and frivolous disciples have come to the door every three days to complain. Although they have been silent for the past two days, I know it is not them. What kind of big plan is being laid? Didn’t An Zhi say that Ximen Qing wanted to manipulate you and occupy me through some underworld resurrection or some underworld chef? He also made peace with the magistrate, and when the deal was done, others could only watch in vain He only has two eyes! In this world, how can you expect Jing Ke and Nie Zheng to come out and help you fight against injustice?"
Wu Dalang murmured: "If that chef star is real..." Pan Jinlian snorted, Wu Dalang's voice lowered, lowered...
After a long time, Pan Jinlian said softly: "I also know that you want to get rid of the nickname of 'Three-inch Dinggu Tree Bark' and become an upright person. It is naturally good for you to make progress, but others He has accurately calculated your fatal weakness and just used the word 'Dichu Xing' to force you to jump into this trap with all his heart! This high-ranking official from Ximen is so evil in his intentions!"
Wu Dalang shook his head and said, "I don't think Ximen officials are like this!"
Pan Jinlian sighed: "Come on! Since you said so, I have a plan here, so I will try the quality of the official Ximen. If my plan fails, then what Ximen Qing said is true. You are indeed the reincarnation of a star; if he shows his flaws, what will happen then?"
Wu Dalang was stunned for a long time before he said: "If it's Ruo Xun, just let my sister-in-law make the decision!"
Pan Jinlian heard the silence outside the door, and then she told Wu Da: "After I prepare the cooking cakes for sale tomorrow, I will go to Ximen's house and invite him to come to our house for a simple meal. If he doesn't come, I will I see that he doesn't take you and me to heart, so thank God; if he comes and sees me, if he can behave politely, I will believe that he is a strange man who has come back from the underworld. If he carries Did you have any bad intentions towards me? You and I ignored him and walked away, so we packed our bags overnight and fled to Yanggu County, two hundred miles southeast of Qinghe River, to make a living! Wang Ganniang said that there was also a Purple Stone Street there, and there was also a lion there. Building, where we are, it feels like we are in our hometown."
Wu Dalang nodded in agreement, then turned on the lamp and went to sleep. But who could sleep peacefully that night?
The next day, she cooked pancakes for half a day and sent them twice. Pan Jinlian estimated that Ximen Qing was about to go home, so she tidied Wu Dalang up and down, and Wu Dalang came to Ximen's house to ask for an audience.
All the family members respectfully invited Lord Wu Xing to the living room to serve tea. Wu Dalang had mixed feelings. For a moment, Ximen Qing's warm eyes rolled through his heart. For a moment, he was afraid that there was something hidden behind these eyes, as his wife said. Evil intentions.
Seeing Ximen Qing entering the door, Wu Dalang was heartbroken: "Today's casserole pounding garlic is the hammer deal!" Then he strode forward, crossed his hands and saluted: "Ximen, the official, Xiaoxiao and Zhuo Jing have some water and wine at home. , I want to invite the high official to come down and show his favor, but I don’t know if I can go with him?"
"Ah?" Ximen Qing was caught off guard and was shocked! This is exactly:
Emperor Daojun has no strategy, but Jingchai woman has a strange plan. You want to know whether Ximen Qing is going or not, and listen to the explanation in the next chapter.
