Chapter 33 Spring and Autumn Writing

"I can't do it tonight. I have to hurry back. I have to find an opportunity to talk to our general first. It's not too late. How many days can I stay? I settled down and went to the city to have a drink with my brother. The general refused with a smile. The bodyguard touched a small indigo purse from his arms, pushed it from the table to the general, and said with a smile, "It's okay to stay for a few more days. I'll go back when this matter is over. Here, the younger brother takes it back and uses it. He always needs to make some points."

The general did not refuse. He took his purse, drank tea, and chatted with the dart master. The two stood up, left the teahouse, said goodbye with their fists, and went back separately.

Li Xiaoyao and Li Zonggui glanced at them out of the door, also settled the bill, and followed them out. Seeing that the two walked away one by one south and one north, Li Xiaoyao motioned to Li Zonggui: "One person."

Li Zonggui stretched out his hand to hold Li Xiaoyao: "Big brother said that you can't be left alone, and I don't trust you. You don't need to look at that. Let's just watch this." Li Zonggui said, raising his chin to indicate the direction of the general's departure. Li Xiaoyao sighed heavily and did not insist. Together with Li Zonggui, he was far behind the general, he went out of the north gate and walked two or three hundred steps. There were no vendors around, and pedestrians were gradually scarce. The two did not dare to follow again and stood in a small place selling roasted sheep's heads. In front of the stall, he bought ten pieces of roasted sheep's head, pretending to wait for the lamb's head to be roasted, looking at the general's where to go and watching him go back to the north camp.

Li Zonggui held a bag of roast sheep's head. The two turned into the city and rushed all the way to the cart shop. Zhang Gouzi was standing anxiously at the door of the cart shop, with his toes and stretched his neck to look around. Seeing the two coming, he breathed a long sigh of relief and hurriedly greeted him up. He took the big bag in Li Xiaoyao's hand and wanted to pick up Li again. The big bag hanging on Zonggui's body, Li Zonggui frowned and signaled that he didn't need it. The three of them returned to the Taiping car and put down their things. They didn't dare to delay any more. Li Xiaoyao jumped on the car. Sun Qidi shouted the cow and left the south gate and went all the way back to the west of the pen rack.

Li Xiaoyao took a piece of roasted sheep's head and tasted it, and handed the lotus leaf bag in his hand to Zhang Gouzi: "It tastes good. You and Uncle Sun can taste it." Zhang Gouzi took the lotus leaf bag with a smile, jumped to the front of the car, and ate it all together with Sun Qidi in a moment.

Not far from the west mountain of the pen holder, and the sky has gradually darkened. Li Xiaoyao jumped out of the car, pulled Li Zonggui, was about ten steps behind, and said in a low voice, "Don't talk to your eldest brother and Brother Shuisheng when you go back. Anyway, it has nothing to do with us."

Li Zonggui paused slightly and was about to speak. Li Xiaoyao took his arm and then said, "Brother Guizi, think about it. The eldest brother is a chivalrous man and pays the most attention to it. If he knows this, he must try to talk to the pen holder, or do something else, but this matter can't be said. As soon as they say it, they will know that it's a good thing we have done. I think, forget it, let's stop talking.

"This can't be done. We can't hide this matter from the eldest brother, Xiaoyao. In any case, we can't hide it from the eldest brother. Your words also make sense, but don't worry, although the eldest brother is chivalrous, he is not that rigid." Li Zonggui waved his hand and categorically rejected Li Xiaoyao's proposal. Li Xiaoyao did not insist. His eyes turned slightly, shook Li Zonggui's arm and said, "Well, I listen to Brother Guizi, but let me tell the eldest brother that I'm right, you just nodded. What you said is wrong. You just shake your head. You can't interrupt. Let me talk to the eldest brother!"

Li Zonggui was shaken back and forth by Li Xiaoyao, so he had to nod and promised, "Okay, but you can't talk nonsense. Let's talk about it."

"Don't worry, I, Li Xiaoyao, never lie. There has always been one thing, two is two." Li Xiaoyao assured with a smile.

Several people are still two or three miles away from the west mountain of the pen rack. Zhang Dazhuang, with two or three people, holding long guns and picking them up from afar. The group returned to the mountain and ate. Li Xiaoyao made a cup of tea for each of his brothers, sat down between Li Zongliang and Wei Shuisheng, pulled Li Zongliang, and whispered, "Brother, Gui and I Brother Zi met the darts master from Xinyang Mansion again today.

Li Zongliang and Wei Shuisheng immediately became alert and looked at Li Xiaoyao, waiting for her to speak. Li Xiaoyao glanced at Li Zonggui, turned around and pulled Wei Shuisheng, and said softly, "Brother Shuisheng, do you remember that last year we met a darts master from Xinyang in Liuyeer Teahouse, that is, the head of the dart master, Yin The one with the vul's face saw him today. Didn't he say last time that he would not give New Year's gifts to the leader of the grandson of the pen holder? Anyway, he would not walk from the bottom of the mountain several times a year. He also said that he had a brother led soldiers stationed in Zhengcheng. He was not afraid that Sun's leader would turn against him, and the annual gift was privately divided by him and those bodyguard masters.

Wei Shuisheng laughed and reached out and patted Li Xiaoyao's head: "When did you talk so much? Hurry up and get to business."

"Well," Li Xiaoyao answered obediently, turned his head to look at Li Zongliang, and then said, "Today, Brother Guizi and I just turned into the street of the darts bureau. We happened to see him come out of the darts bureau, which scared me and Brother Guizi. We stared at him all the way into the Liuyeer Teahouse, and then a general came to listen to him. It was really his teacher. Brother, later he talked about the east mountain of the pen, but his voice was too soft, and my brother Guizi and I didn't listen to it all. The general said that their general wanted to train soldiers, but if it could be like this. Li Xiaoyao learned to twist his fingers: "It's even better. The dart master said that the pen holder is very fat, and he also said, otherwise how could he walk in the world?"

Li Xiaoyao's words stopped abruptly. Li Zongliang and Wei Shuisheng waited for a while and looked at Li Xiaoyao and asked, "No more?"

"Hmm." Li Xiaoyao nodded. Wei Shuisheng looked at her, and then turned his head to look at Li Zonggui, who frowned. Li Zongliang frowned and looked at Wei Shuisheng: "I'm afraid that Grand Leader Sun didn't receive the New Year's gift and found the Dart Bureau to talk. How can such money be greedy? These darts are also too bold. With that, he sighed: "The pen holder Dongshan is also a disaster."

"It's not a reckless disaster. The leader of Dongshan Sun has a reputation. Even if there is no such thing, maybe one day if it's not this general or that general, he will have to practice with him. What a good thing, practiced, made a fortune, and contributed to the people." Li Xiaoyao quickly took the words. Li Zongliang nodded and was silent for a moment. He turned his head and looked at Li Erhuai and ordered, "You go and call Tiemu, and Shuncai will come here. We have to discuss it well. We have to prevent these officers and soldiers from fighting Dongshan, and then lead us to Xishan."

Li Erhuai agreed and hurriedly jumped up and ran out to call someone. Wei Shuisheng looked up and down at the honest Li Xiaoyao, stood up, and waved to Li Zonggui: "Your son came out with me. I have something to ask you."

Li Zonggui agreed and hurriedly stood up and followed. Li Xiaoyao jumped faster than Li Zonggui. He grabbed Wei Shuisheng's arm and shouted, "I also want to listen!" Wei Shuisheng picked up Li Xiaoyao and pressed it back to the chair: "It's not what you listen to. Ansheng sits down." Li Xiaoyao watched Li Zonggui follow Wei Shuisheng out of the door.

Li Erhuai came in with Zhang Tiemu and Jiang Shuncai and just sat down. Wei Shuisheng and Li Zonggui also entered the house one after another. Li Zongliang looked at Zhang Tiemu and Jiang Shun and said, "I just got the letter. The officers and soldiers may have to clean up the pen racks these days. We have to be very careful. Shuncai, you and the dog, um, count Zhao Wu Brother and Liushun, the four of you, take turns to go to the hump stone to watch the movement in the north. Don't be careless.

"Don't worry!" Jiang Shuncai simply agreed. Li Zongliang looked at Zhang Tiemu and said, "You take someone with you to move the grain to the cave tomorrow morning, put it in that small hole to hide it, and then let it go on. For a while, no one is allowed to go down the mountain."

Zhang Tiemu hurriedly agreed. Li Zongliang exhaled and was about to wave the two to leave. Wei Shuisheng smiled and told him, "Also, Tiemu will go out and go on. From tonight, the lights in each room will not be lit again, and all the lanterns in the yard have been extinguished. It's better not to be seen that there are people living on our mountain."

"Hey!" Zhang Tiemu agreed heavily. Seeing that Li Zongliang and Wei Shuisheng had nothing else to say, he and Jiang Shun came out and went separately.

Wei Shuisheng got up and closed the door, moved the lamp on the table to the ground, looked at Li Zongliang, and said in a low voice, "Brother, this time the officers and soldiers came to rob Qian Wenxuan. The Qian family injured people and lacked so much gold. They must have found the darts bureau to ask for an explanation. I don't know how many twists and turns there have gone through. This matter is even if it comes to the leader of Sun.

Li Xiaoyao stared angrily at Li Zonggui. Li Zonggui shrank his neck and spread his hands, indicating that there was no way for him. Li Zongliang raised his hand and knocked on Li Xiaoyao's head and scolded him: "Have you played the Spring and Autumn brushwork with the eldest brother? This disaster was brought by us by robbing Qian Wenxuan. It's okay if the leader of Sun can't escape. If he escapes this disaster, how can this matter be hidden? When you come to trouble us, we can only recognize a rational song! If you want to fight or kill, you have to do whatever you want!"

"Big brother is right. This matter is related to our reputation on the road. When we first entered the industry, our reputation has been damaged, and there will be more troubles in the future. Xiaoyao, we can't do this next time, do you hear that?" Wei Shuisheng raised his hand to block Li Zongliang's hand, pulled Li Xiaoyao, rubbed her head, and whispered softly. Li Xiaoyao looked at Li Zongliang with an angry face, pulled Wei Shuisheng's sleeves, agreed, and flashed behind Wei Shuisheng to hide.

"Brother, we have to think about what to do about this." Wei Shuisheng pulled Li Xiaoyao to sit on the chair next to him, looked at Li Zongliang and said. Li Zongliang frowned and thought about it carefully for a moment: "I have to report this to the leader of Sun. Believe it or not."
