Chapter 86 The weasel pays New Year greetings to the chicken.
There was a bleeding "dead body" lying in front of the store, and the customers who wanted to enter the store were really afraid to enter.
The shopkeeper was calling Bai Zhou to order food. Seeing this, he let out a long sigh, called a young man in the shop, and said, "Go out through the back door and report to the official."
After explaining, he condescendingly said to the guests on the first floor: "I'm sorry for disturbing everyone's enjoyment of eating, but the price of the meal will be discounted by half. If there is something urgent, let the waiter lead you through the door of the back kitchen. If there is nothing else, please drink Have a glass of wine and watch the excitement."
After finishing speaking, he clasped his fists to Bai Tian and said: "I'm sorry, let's start the food now, you three sit down for a while."
Turned around and went downstairs.
Seeing that he handled it well, he was also happy to watch the play during the day.
Let's talk about the man downstairs, what he did was actually a tactic used by hooligans to ask for money from the newly opened store - stabbed himself, lay down at the door of the store, and the store gave the money and it was over, and if he didn't give the money, he would disturb others Can't do business.
It's just that he doesn't look like a simple hooligan, on the contrary, he seems to only trouble this store.
I don't know what hatred, what resentment.
The people at the gate of the yamen came very quickly, and within the time the shopkeeper went downstairs to appease the guests, the official messenger came.
The shopkeeper welcomes you out.
One of the younger officers looked at him, then at the man lying on the ground, suddenly smiled, and teased the man, "Hey! Isn't this the invincible senior Du Gu? What's the matter? The shopkeeper lost the bet with you, so he won't give you money?"
Du Gu was lying on the ground with his eyes half closed. When he heard the officer speak, he narrowed his eyes and didn't get up. He said vaguely: "That's not true. The money he opened the shop came from selling the old man's land. I should have a share, even if this matter is reported to the government, I will take it for granted, the villain does not want to bother the official, so he came here to have a private affair with him."
The table during the day is a good place to watch a play, several people chattered, and Du Gu was a "celebrity" in the town.
A few guests at the next table explained a little, and the cause and effect of the bustle at the door were clarified.
The man's name is Du Gu, and he is the half-brother of Du Mo, the shopkeeper.
The old father of the two passed away several years ago, and the family property was divided into two, and the two sons were half of each other. In fact, it was regarded as a clean division of the family.
But Du Gu became addicted to gambling a few years ago, and he couldn't live a good life. He came and went again and again, and his family's wealth was gambled away.He forced his daughter-in-law to sell the dowry, but the daughter-in-law refused and was beaten several times.
In the end, the daughter-in-law took the child back to her natal home in Linzhen, and he chased her back, vowing not to gamble.
But if the gambler man's words can be counted, both boars and sows will climb the tree.
This kind of farce is like pulling a drawer, going back and forth several times.
The last time, in order to cheat money from his wife's family, Du Gu secretly went to Linzhen, coaxed his own son into a hut on the outskirts of the city and locked him up for four days, saying that he was kidnapped by a debtor.
This is the money "borrowed" from the child's uncle to "pay off the debt".
After a few days, when the incident happened, he took the money and went to the casino again.
His daughter-in-law was very angry, and a letter from He Li felt that it was too light. When he licked his face again, swiped the kitchen knife, and cut off a finger to break up with him.
I have heard of a gambler who cuts off his finger to quit gambling, but never heard of a gambler's daughter-in-law who cut off her finger from her family to kill a thousand knives.
The woman became ruthless because of protecting the child, scaring even the gamblers.
Du Gu knew that although his mother-in-law didn't say anything, as long as he came to the door next time, the knife would be directly on him.
These days, I really dare not go to Lin Town to find fault.
When the gambling money was running low, I heard that my younger brother Du Mo had opened an inn in the town-won't I just come up with whatever I want.
Downstairs at the gate of the courtyard, the officials and the neighbors in the street, you have tried to persuade Du Gu nicely, why bother with your younger brother's business?
It's not in the court, and it's this kind of brother's family affairs. No matter which dynasty, the officials will first focus on mediation. Extra human.
Unexpectedly, Du Gu lay down on the ground again, and let you monks recite scriptures, I would stand dead on the spot.
The elderly officer squatted down beside him, and said, "You said that you had a share of the money for his shop. How did I hear that you two separated a long time ago, and he just sold the land to open the shop a few days ago. What does it have to do with you?"
Du Gu chuckled, and said, "I knew you had to ask," he touched his bosom, took out a piece of paper that was almost crumpled, and handed it to the officer, "Black and white."
The officer opened it suspiciously, and saw that it was indeed a handprinted document, stating that a piece of ancestral land of the Du family, if sold, the money would be divided equally between the two sons.
Du Mo was dumbfounded by changing the shopkeeper this time. The handprint on the document was indeed his. Du Mo said to the official in a daze: "Impossible, the villain has never signed such a document."
Du Gu said: "We are all one family, my brother will not kill all brothers, this shop is considered a business between you and me, just share the bill with me every month."
Du Mo stared blankly at the document, unable to utter a single word.
Seeing him like this, those neighbors who scolded Du Gu for nothing, and after scheming against his wife, came to swindle his brother's money, were also a little shaken.
Could it be that the elder brother is a rogue in the open, and the younger brother is a rogue in secret?
Bai Tian was very interested at first, and after looking at it for a long time, he saw that the hoop was sticky, so he was not very willing to continue reading.
Scratching his ears, he looked at King Yuanning and said, "The ears are not pure in that broken land, and they are still not pure here, or... shall we change the land?"
The prince nodded and smiled, "Of course, let them quarrel."
As he spoke, he took out a piece of silver from his pocket, put it on the table, got up and went downstairs with Bai Tian.
When going out, he passed by the shopkeeper Du Mo.Du Mo caught a glimpse of a few people leaving, and hurriedly cupped his fists, apologetically, and said, "I'm disturbing a few of you with family affairs, I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
Bai Bai smiled, and said "it doesn't matter" before he said it.
Du Gu on the side suddenly got up from the ground quickly, with a flattering face, he said: "Look at the noble people, let's settle the bill. Is the food delicious? Can you give me some money?"
Stopped directly in front of the daytime.
If you don't say that people are shameless, they are invincible.
Bai Zhou smiled and said: "They all stayed in their seats, and whether they will be divided or not after that is the two of you's family affairs."
With that said, he wanted to bypass Du Gu.
Don't look at Du Gu's self-mutilation on the leg just now, his figure is extremely agile, he took a step sideways, and just stopped in front of Bai Tian again.
Without waiting for the day to speak, or for the prince to clear the siege, Du Mo couldn't stand it any longer, grabbed his rogue brother by the wrist, dragged him to a stagger, and asked, "Isn't that embarrassing enough?"
The rascal Poppi lived up to his reputation, rolled to the ground in an instant, clutched his wrist that had been pulled by Du Mo, and yelled loudly, howling worse than killing a pig, and said, "You...you bastard, do you want my life? Broken hands... committing murder in the street... only you, a bastard son of a bitch, can do it... do it..."
Rolling on the spot, he rolled to the feet of the slightly older official, grabbed his official robe, and said: "Song boss, you must recognize the black and white. He hurt me and you saw it with your own eyes. Even this lawsuit In front of today's holy master, it is also a villain's reason!"
During the day, he looked at the prince.
Deliberately leave, but want to take care of this nosy business.
The prince smiled at him, leaned into his ear and whispered: "As long as you are happy, you can do whatever you want."
Then...
Since this stuff has been mentioned in today's sage, let's join in the fun.
During the day, he walked up to the official Song Tou'er, clasped his fists in salute, and said, "Master Song, the document, can I have a look at it?"
The messenger walked around the streets all the year round, met some neighbors in the street, and was rarely called an "adult". When he called "Master" in the daytime, he shouted sincerely, and the messenger immediately developed a good impression of this gentle scholar.
In addition, Bai Tian has a good appearance and is a veteran of Vanity Fair. His temperament and expression are timely and comfortable, and he is extremely refined and polite at the moment.
Song Tou'er first looked at Bai Tian, and then turned his eyes to King Yuanning who was beside him.
He has seen countless people at the gate of the yamen, and he can see that the two people's backgrounds must not be simple, so he dared not be rude, bowed slightly and said: "I dare not pretend to be an adult, but I am just an errand for the neighbors," he said. Straightening his waist, he said, "I still have to ask, who is the young master, and why do you want to read this document?"
Bai Zhou respectfully said: "I'm a little like the document below, I want to see if I can tell if the one in your lord's hand is genuine or not."
Head Song pondered for a moment, then looked at the scoundrel at his feet, and also felt a pain in the head, so he still handed the document to Bai Tian, and said, "Young master, please."
Bai Tian took it, and his eyes lingered for a long time on the signatures and fingerprints of the two on the document.
Sucking his teeth, he shook his head.
As if he was a different person, there was a sly smile on his face, and the look of malicious intent oozing from his bones, he didn't speak, just looked at Du Gu like this.
Du Gu's intentions were not correct, and he felt terrified when he was seen by Bai Tian like this, but he still pretended to be calm and confronted Bai Tian intently.
During the day, he slowly brought the document to Du Gu, and said leisurely: "Brother, look after you."
As soon as the words fell, he moved his hands unhurriedly.
I only heard the slow, light sound of "stabbing", the sound of shredded paper...
Shocked the audience into silence.
Of course, Du Gu was the first one to react. He yelled "Oops", jumped up, and snatched the document that had been torn in half by the day. He got up in a hurry and forgot about the injury on his leg. , staggered for several steps before stabilizing his figure, turned around, looked at the daylight, and looked at the paperwork in his hand, trembling with shock and anger, "You...you...you... ..."
You have been talking for a long time, but you haven't written any more.
With fierce eyes, he rushed directly towards the daytime.
Bairi stepped half a step sideways, hid behind King Yuanning, exposed half of his head, pointed at Du Gu with a fan and said, "Hey...! Hey! Are your hands ready?"
Only then did everyone realize that Du Gu had just rolled to the ground and complained that his hand was torn off by Du Mo. At this moment, his "broken hand" was clenched into a fist, and it couldn't be more majestic.
Dazed, Bai Zhou said again: "This strong man, listen to the next sentence, if you still want to do something after listening, um..." He made a gesture and thought for a while, "This body must be... ...I can't bear to be beaten by you, but..."
After dragging out a long ending sound, he reached into his bosom, took out a jade pendant, picked it up against the sun, and shook it in front of Du Gu's eyes: "This one is for you."
Du Gu is a gambler, he has no money, and he has seen good things in casinos.
Seeing that the whole body of the pendant was icy, and the light was so moist that it seemed that a layer of jelly had formed on the surface, he knew that this pendant might be the most valuable thing he had ever seen in his life.
Immediately his eyes lit up, and he thought, no matter what you say in a while, I will make a gesture to beat you up.
After making up his mind, Du Gu said, "Speak."
Bai Ri cheerfully put the jade pendant back into his bosom, walked to Du Gu's side, and whispered a few words.
When Du Gu started to listen, his face was still full of disdain, but gradually his expression became hesitant, and then became more and more stagnant.
After Bai Tian finished speaking, he looked at him cheerfully, and then stretched out his palm directly in front of Du Gu, as if asking Du Gu for something.
Du Gu frowned and stared at Bai Zhou, but he had to hand the document to Bai Zhou.
Bai Tian took it and shook it in his hand, still looking at him with a smile.
Du Gu said bitterly: "I won't mention today's matter in the future. Du Mo and I have already separated, and there is no dispute with him about money. Everyone present, and the two leaders, please do it." a testimony."
After finishing speaking, he took a hard look at Bai Tian, turned around and left.
At this time, the prince rushed forward and grabbed him.
Du Gu's fierce face was revealed, and he yelled at the prince, "What are you doing!"
The prince smiled and took out a small bottle from his bosom, pointed at his leg, and said with a smile: "After all, he is injured, this is a golden medicine."
Du Gu looked the prince up and down, took the bottle, but muttered: "Weasel pays New Year greetings to chicken."
Saying that, he turned and walked away.
Bai Zhou walked up to Head Song, handed him the document that had been torn in two, and said, "Master Song, although the trouble has been settled for the time being, this thing is evidence of official failure after all, please bring it back to the yamen. Save it up."
Song Tou'er couldn't understand why Du Gu left suddenly, but it was obvious that this person in front of him was an expert.
He took it immediately and agreed.
Bai Ri went to Du Mo again and whispered something in his ear.
Du Mo listened and nodded repeatedly.
After Bai Tian finished speaking, he cupped his fists and said to Bai Tian: "Young Master has helped the shop a lot. During these days in Lingxiao Town, the small shop has all meals and lodging included. You can stay as long as you like."
The daytime was happy, and he answered with a smile.
