Legend of Shangxian

Chapter 35

The lamb's exposed fart/buttocks were trembling, and the hair on the swaying top was trembling.Obviously there was no room left, and he pressed against Jiang Fan's thigh with more force.Jiang Fan unfolded his sleeves to cover it, and patted his palms gently through the front of his shirt. He raised his head and asked the man, "Where is it marked as yours? Do you ask it to agree?"

The man frowned slightly, thought for a while, and then smiled: "What are you two doing wandering around here? You don't look like natives! Recently, there have been frequent thefts in the village, does it have something to do with you?" In the last sentence, the subject changed, and even his expression became fierce.

The Dibao behind the man immediately spread out a circle, surrounding Jiang Fan and Jiang Hao.

Jiang Fan curled his lips, what is his harsh words, Jiang Hao, who is more cold-faced than him, always loses face to himself, he has been used to seeing it for hundreds of years, and doesn't take this color seriously.

"What does it have to do with us if you lost something in your village? I also said that you were blocking the road and robbing. Are you not afraid that I will report to the police?"

The man held his chin with the whip, and looked at the two of them leisurely, the corners of his mouth were clenched tightly, and his eyes stared through the fabric, making the lamb tremble even more.

At this time, Jiang Hao, who had been keeping silent and always watching from the sidelines, spoke instead: "You are worrying too much, we are here to visit relatives."

"Oh," the man turned sideways, his brows were high and he casually looked at Jiang Hao: "What kind of marriage are you looking for? Who are you looking for?"

Jiang Hao's words were simple and shocking, "My surname is Zhao, and I'm in the cloth business."

The man really paused: "There are a lot of foreigners recently, and the businessman surnamed Zhao has indeed noticed it." After pondering for a while, he suddenly changed his enthusiastic expression: "It's getting late, and it must be inconvenient for the two of you to travel at night. , Even if you enter the city at this time, it will be troublesome whether you are looking for or buying a shop. The Xiaren Villa is not far away. My surname is Sun, and he is the richest man in the Zhujiazhuang. How about going to Zhujiaji tomorrow morning? Zhujiazhuang is only [-] miles away from Zhujiaji, which is very close by foot. It will be convenient for me to prepare two good horses for you tomorrow."

Jiang Fan and Jiang Hao looked at each other, and Jiang Fan changed into a smile: "I'm afraid I'm going to disturb the master."

"It's nothing, it's convenient for others, it's convenient for you." The officer surnamed Sun poked his horse's head, and he really wanted to take them back.

When the sheep heard that it was going to go with Sun Yuanwai, it became more and more anxious, and its four hooves kept moving.Jiang Fan held it in his arms and didn't let go when he got into the carriage. The sheep gradually calmed down, only turning its big eyes to look around.

Jiang Fan remembered that Qinghun had promised her to someone else, and the other party was the richest man in Zhujiazhuang. His surname was Zhu, but not his grandson.So Jiang Fan asked Sun Yuanwai who was in the village. Sun Yuanwai called himself Sun Qitian, "There is only one old mother and a few wives in the family. My mother was kind all her life. She believed in Buddhism and ate long fasts. She is the most kind person who is willing to give. If Knowing that I brought back two lost guests, I must be very willing."

Outsiders don't disturb the inner house. If he comes from a good family, it's no big deal to stay overnight. It's just that his body is too sinister, which makes Jiang Fan cover his nose and winks at Jiang Hao in private. This person looks lazy and luxurious, and he probably committed crimes The number of murder cases was several times that of Yuan Jiu's. Since it was nothing, and he was not afraid of death, he went to find out.Anyway, one monster is also surrendering two monsters. Not only do they go into battle together, but they come and clean them up in one go, so as to save effort.

This grandson had a lot of ostentation, he led them all the way to the village, entered through the corner door at the back, got off his horse, took off his cloak and robe, changed into small clothes, cut his hair and wore a purple gold crown, and came out again. Everyone is a gentleman.The servants held up fragrant moss, and Sun Yuanwai lightly rolled the tea leaves while aiming at the sheep in Jiang Fan's arms: "Since we have arrived at the village, there is tender grass in the yard, you can eat whatever you want." The sheep seemed to have forgotten the fear before, and recognized it again. When he got off the road, he jumped down as soon as he jumped, and happily ran to the courtyard to graze with his head down.

Jiang Fan looked at it at first, but when he turned left and right and disappeared suddenly, he wanted to get up to look for it, but Sun Yuanwai waved his hand: "Don't worry, I can't treat it badly. You two go to the table first."

The table is full of vegetarian dishes, some of which seem to have been touched by a couple of chopsticks, and some of which have not been left untouched.Member Sun smiled and chatted, the two of you don't mind, "I was in the banquet just now, and I left the banquet on the spur of the moment. Come on, take it down and replace it with new dishes."

Then he told his servants: "Go and invite my eldest brother and third younger brother." Cai didn't see him and retreated, and after a while, two strong men wandered in from outside. The shorter one was a fair and strong man, neither fat nor thin, slightly She has a little belly, her waist is tightly tied by a golden chrome belt, her head is held high and her chest is majestic.The other had a golden lock on his neck, and had a dark face, and stared first when he smiled and spoke.The eyes of both of them were not small, and they stared like bulls and tigers.Among them, the black-faced man named Niu is the elder brother, and the white man named Gou is the third younger brother.

The three of them registered their names with Jiang Hao and Jiang Fan, rearranged their seats and sat down. Jiang Hao could tell the origins of the two things at a glance. They were very different from Sun Yuanwai. They have bad breath and the fishy smell is hard to get rid of. These two don't seem to have hurt their lives, and they have a refreshing breath.

Five people at the banquet talked about the local folk customs. Brother Niu said that the folk customs in Zhujiaji were simple and simple, but Brother Gou felt that the people were foolish and litigious, and everything had to be heard in court. , Sitting in one place to debate for no reason, without much knowledge, always pretending to be a pedant, pretending to understand, and most like to preach to others.Sun Yuanwai watched the two of them debate with a smile. One said that there is nothing wrong with right and wrong, and the other said that it is too rude to be fussy. Already?"

Brother Gou scratched his head: "Second brother, you don't know something. These foolish people are hard to be called. They are all justifiable guys." Brother Niu said: "The gathering you made up is not to say that there is no trouble, but there are people sitting there. First of all, they still have to wait and see, how can it be so easy to put together a rally? There are a lot of spectators and little effort, these foolish people like to bluff."

Sun Yuanwai's complexion was not very good. Brother Niu saw that his brother was unhappy, so he proposed to go to the garden to enjoy the moon.

Sun Yuanwai sighed, "This matter is not in a hurry, I was also entrusted by others." So people brought wine and vegetables into the garden, and prepared fresh melons and fruits.After a while, a fair and clean boy came in, holding a crystal tray with seasonal fruits and vegetables in his hands.The young man seemed to be dumb and couldn't speak. Whatever the grandson told him, he would sign and agree. He was wearing a white blouse with a pattern of begonias on his body, and inside the bell was a moon-white and lotus-colored silk that covered his feet. The trousers are covering the feet, and a pair of tight shoes wrap the feet into a circle.Jiang Fan looked at him, and found that the eyes were very familiar, like Yuan Jiu, and after careful thought, they were seven or eight points similar to the lamb.

The boy made an aggrieved expression and looked at Jiang Fan with a bitter face, then limped and backed away.Sun Yuanwai glanced at the boy's back and then looked at Jiang Fan and laughed loudly: "Brother Jiang is my slave, don't worry about him."

Brother Niu and Brother Gou seem to have gotten used to it, and they don't take the boy seriously.Thinking that no one in Manzhuang was human, Jiang Fan had no choice but to pick up the fruit and pass it to Jiang Hao.It was Sun Yuanwai who explained: "His parents are lowly slaves who were born without a name and a bad mind. They always forget things a few days ago. Only I am willing to take him in and give him a meal. No, just do some errands, although people are stupid, they are still diligent."

Jiang Fan was silent, and Sun Yuanwai raised his eyebrows to look at Jiang Fan with something in his words: "Brother Jiang reminded me that my things should always be stamped, just like this slave, if you leave the blessing Xiang always wants to run away, so today I got a mark on his buttocks, and if he loses it in the future, he will know it belongs to my family. If someone else finds it, he must send it back to me."

Jiang Fan can't stand his stubbornness and suspicion: "Whether it's a fool or a beast, they all have auras. If you treat him sincerely, he will repay you. If you treat him falsely, he will of course avoid it." Far away."

When Brother Niu heard the words Zhientubao, he immediately raised his head and licked his fingers with his tongue: "People who heard books before would always have the face to tell the story of a scholar saving Yihu. finish."

Sun Yuanwai shook his head again and again: "Actually, this story is not necessarily very good. The Jiang family brothers have never heard of it. It doesn't matter if I tell it again. The joke you often hear is nothing more than a certain scholar who rescued a certain spiritual man. The fox of the generation, the spirit turned into a woman to repay the favor with his body. Today we will talk about a slightly different story, which is also about a scholar. There was an admission student who was going to Beijing for an exam. When he passed by a farmer, he saw a bird that was dying of illness. The sheep was going to be buried alive by the owner, so he used it as a bowl to redeem the sheep. Grabbing medicines and treating illnesses is like treating people, and the sheep also has ambitions, and soon heals up, serving as the feet of scholars along the way."

"This sheep is not an ordinary sheep. It is a sheep that has practiced through the ages. After receiving the favor of the scholar, he diligently guarded his luggage and hauled things for him along the way. When he entered the capital, he stood by the scholar while he was studying. Quiet and quiet, at night, learn to look like a human, and fold the quilt on the auxiliary bed, but unfortunately it is a ram, and the bed warmer is just to warm the quilt."

"Ordinary people would be shocked to see a sheep turned into a book boy, right? This admission is a big deal, and there is a gully in his chest. Knowing that this is an encounter with a spiritual creature, he observes it calmly and finds that he is a kind guy. People also live in peace and get along well. A few years later, the scholar failed the exam and took the exam again, and finally won the first place in one fell swoop, and married the lady of the Xiangfu family. On the wedding night, he went back to the study to sleep, and the lady found that he had hugged a sheep. The matter turned around, so he was furious and insisted on going back to his mother's house. The scholar was exposed to the scandal, fearing that he would lose his future, so he listened to the lady's instigation and took the sheep to the butcher. Heartbroken, I slaughtered it with one knife, and personally skinned it to make a jacket for my wife."

During the banquet, everyone gasped, only Jiang Hao looked pale, and only glanced at Sun Yuanwai, still picking up the orange peel on his hand.

"The affairs of the world can't be explained clearly. People who are greedy for wealth and honor and shameless will repay in the next life if they don't repay in this life. Although that person is here to repay a favor, he doesn't want to let his life be trampled on by him. It is also because of that scholar's luck. The sheepskin jacket was later acquired by a down-and-out person, and that person later won the first prize. After the scholar official reached the first rank, he was ordered to ransack the house by this person because of corruption and breaking the law. The sheep was also borrowed. It's just that the scholar was punished as a sheep because of his serious crimes, and he was slaughtered by others for the rest of his life, and he couldn't speak out if he had something to say, and he couldn't speak out if he was wronged."

Brother Niu and Brother Gou seemed to have suddenly realized, Jiang Hao snorted coldly, and squinted at Li Yuanwai: "I heard that there is a god who can live without a mouth. Only a good person can cultivate this kind of sheep shape, not a big villain." Li Yuanwai arrogantly squinted at him, and was about to argue, when suddenly a group of women walked into the other corner of the garden wearing jingle bells.

Jiang Fan and Jiang Hao stood up immediately, not knowing how to avoid them, when suddenly the people next to them almost disappeared.Surrounded by luxuriant grass and exotic flowers, only the two of them stood dryly beside the stone tables and chairs, and someone among the women whispered softly: "Look, there are outsiders."

Like the stars holding the moon, several women in gorgeous clothes gradually approached an old lady. The old lady was wearing a sapphire forehead protector, wearing a purple yuan cloak, and a jacket with a wide-width longevity character. Face, never look people in the eye.Seeing Jiang Fan and Jiang Hao, he immediately pointed his finger at them, and said harshly: "How did you two come in? Where is the housekeeper? Why do outsiders randomly enter the women's place?"

For a moment, Jiang Fan felt that the woman's fingertips were pitch black, and the already hooked nails had grown a little longer.
