"I'm talking about being a teenager, I'm holding the yellow on the left, and I'm holding the blue sky on the right..." Everyone chanted softly, the second couplet not only matched neatly, but also rhymed very well, and the seemingly arrogant sentence of "I'm talking about being a teenager" was
, but it showed the high-spirited and domineering spirit of General Zhou. Under the vivid representation, everyone understood that the black-faced young man was praising General Zhou's bravery, and couldn't help but sigh at his amazing talent.
"That's right!" Everyone clapped their hands and applauded: "What an old man talking about being a teenager, well said!"
But think about the second line of the second line of "I talk about being a teenager, cure kidney deficiency, and it does not contain sugar." It is completely wrong. Isn't this black-faced young man making a fuss?
thing?
"Haha..." Everyone laughed a few times. This second line was really interesting.
Although Liu Mei had never read a book, she still knew the beauty of the second couplet. She glanced at Zhu Ziming lightly and murmured in her heart that she didn't expect that this lewd thief was so knowledgeable that he even asked him to read the second couplet.
It's just that this lewd thief is full of dirty things and deliberately talks about kidney failure. Liu Mei thought bitterly in her heart and despised Zhu Ziming even more.
However, when she thought that those who could defeat General Zhou's subordinates would receive a hundred taels, and free food and lodging, Liu Mei's sad expression immediately disappeared, and she was replaced by a pretty face with a smile. However, she and Zhu Ziming had "deep hatred as deep as the sea".
She didn't want Zhu Ziming to see her happy.
As a result, Liu Meijiao snorted: "What a blind cat that met a dead mouse."
Zhu Ziming knew that even if he was right, she would say he was wrong, so he curled his lips and refused to talk to her.
The shopkeeper came over with a smile on his face, cupped his fists and said, "Young Master is so talented and knowledgeable, I admire you!"
"No, no," Zhu Ziming smiled modestly, "I'm just lucky."
"Haha..." The shopkeeper of the Banyan Tree Inn laughed a few times, and then took out a banknote from his back: "Our store has already made a rule. Anyone who signs this couplet correctly will be rewarded with silver.
One hundred taels, food and lodging are free of charge. Since the young master has matched the couplet, I would like to ask the young master to accept this hundred taels..."
Zhu Ziming did not refuse. After all, he got the one hundred taels by his own ability. He smiled slightly and said, "Since it is a silver reward, I will not accept it respectfully."
The shopkeeper was relieved. He had taken over the Banyan Tree Inn from his father for decades. The only unfulfilled wish his father had before his death was this couplet. When his father was running this inn, General Zhou personally made it.
He wrote this couplet in front of his eyes, so his father very much hoped that someone destined to be able to write this couplet would become his father's unfulfilled wish.
However, today someone finally responded to General Zhou's letter, fulfilling his father's wish, and his father's soul in heaven will rest in peace. Thinking of this, the old shopkeeper burst into tears for a while and was filled with emotion.
Zhu Ziming looked at the excitement of the old shopkeeper. After taking the banknote from his hand, he said seriously: "The deceased has passed away, shopkeeper, there is no need to be too sentimental!"
"Well, I'm just being sentimental." The old shopkeeper wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and said, "May I ask the young master's name and where he comes from?"
Zhu Ziming said: "My surname is Zhu Ziming, and I am from Lingyun City."
A native of Lingyun City, his name was Zhu Ziming... Everyone secretly took note of this name.
The old shopkeeper smiled and said: "Master Zhu, there is no need to be polite here. You can eat and live wherever you want. Everything is free."
Zhu Ziming shook his head: "Thank you very much, shopkeeper, for your kindness. I will be on my way early tomorrow morning."
"Master Zhu has an astonishing talent." The old shopkeeper thought of something and asked, "Is it possible that Master Zhu is going to the Yancheng Poetry Club this time?"
The old shopkeeper really guessed it right. Zhu Ziming nodded and said, "Well, I'm about to rush to Yancheng."
"Haha, with the talent of the young master, he will definitely win the first prize of this poetry meeting," the old shopkeeper didn't want to disturb him anymore, cupped his fists and said: "Master Zhu, I won't disturb you and Mrs. Zhu's meal."
What! Madam Zhu! With a "pop" sound, Liu Mei slapped the wine table angrily and glared angrily: "Who is his wife!"
Looking at the sudden loud noise, the old shopkeeper was so old that he almost collapsed to the ground without being frightened. He thought to himself, could it be that she was not Mr. Zhu's wife, or that he had made a mistake?
Zhu Ziming whispered: "Shopkeeper, we are angry, you know!"
Do I understand? What do I understand? Hearing Zhu Ziming's strange emphasis, the old shopkeeper didn't come back to his senses and said in shock. However, after thinking about it, he suddenly realized that it was the young couple who were having an quarrel...
"I understand, I understand!" The old shopkeeper smiled and walked back to the counter.
Everyone looked at the overbearing Liu Mei and secretly sighed. They didn't expect that Mr. Zhu was a great talent, but that "Mrs. Zhu" was so fierce. It was really a mismatch.
"Zhu Ziming, are you deliberately provoking me?" Liu Mei said angrily knowing that he was deliberately taking advantage of her.
"I don't want you to cause trouble," Zhu Ziming chuckled and said, "Besides, it's not good to use knives or guns here."
Liu Mei snorted and said loudly: "Xiaoer, find me a room."
The waiter shouted: "Okay, miss, please wait a moment, I'll check." After saying that, the waiter quickly ran to the counter and flipped through the room numbers to see if there were any vacancies in the superior rooms.
At this moment, the inn suddenly became quiet, and suddenly there was a burst of laughter: "Master Zhu, you are well!"
Zhu Ziming was stunned for a moment, then turned his head and looked outside the door. He saw a tall man with thin eyebrows and eyes walking inside. He was holding the iconic golden abacus in his hand. This was not the richest man in Lingyun City, Jin Buerjin, the boss.
Well!
Zhu Ziming, who had met him once in Xiaoyao Pavilion, was very impressed by him. How could he not recognize him? He laughed and said: "Boss Jin, what kind of wind has brought you here."
"Instead of running around and doing some business, it was a coincidence that today I found an inn to stay, and I didn't expect to meet you, Mr. Zhu." Jin Buer laughed and said, "Can I sit here?"
"Please sit down," Zhu Ziming said, waving his sleeves.
Behind Jin Buer were four burly men. They all had serious faces and unsmiling faces. You could feel their heavy breathing while hesitating. They were four internal masters.
Boss Jin was really rich. He was protected by four masters when he went out. Zhu Ziming secretly said that these four bodyguards must cost a lot of money every month.
Jin Buer quickly sat down, and four guards stood behind him at the same time. After he sat down, he smiled and said: "Master Zhu, you are so lucky."
Blessing? Zhu Ziming was confused, but when he saw Boss Jin’s teasing look, he knew that Boss Jin was talking about Liu Mei, and he smiled bitterly. Is this also called blessing?
