Stealing time

50

"Isn't it? Huang Ama ordered Xu Sanli from Shuntian Mansion to solve the case as soon as possible!" Lao Shi asked his servants to bring a hot hand towel and wiped the oil stains on his mouth.

Xiao Shishi picked up a small snack and put it in his hand. He said, "Although Narsu and the third brother's family's defense is not very strict, there is no problem to guard against a thief. How can the thief be given?"

"Since I can remember, there has never been such a big case in the capital! There are not many people who dare to steal the palace. This thief is really bold!" Lao Shi said while fiddling with the handkerchief.

Yin Zhen picked up the wine pot and filled it up for his brother, and turned around and added wine to me. Putting down the wine jug, he answered, "It's bold enough to steal the imperial gift!" To catch it is to lose your head. What they steal is the most closely defended place of the two governments. They are not only bold, but also superb!"

Do my ninth master have such a high opinion of me? Hey hey, Taoer is not talented, wrong praise, wrong praise!

Lao Shi threw away his handkerchief, picked up his glass and said, "I heard that the living room of the Narsu family was full of guests at that time, and that thing disappeared under the eyes of everyone! No wonder Xu Sanli suspected that the thief was not an ordinary mortal!"

"Isn't it an ordinary mortal? What can that be?" The eighth brother, who had never spoken, asked.

Fourteen peeled the dim sum in his hand and replied, "He suspects that it's a demon or something!" He had been sitting in the living room that day, and still didn't figure out when and how the thing was lost! I asked Brother Thirteen that he was also in Narsu's house that day, but he couldn't say why. It only said that everyone in the hall was listening to jokes at that time. When the jokes were over, they found that the golden bowl was lost. The bodyguard had been standing next to the shrine where the golden bowl was placed. Narsu came and then walked away. Generally speaking, the thief has no chance to steal at all. Before the guests left, they searched one by one, and they couldn't find the bowl!"

"A joke? But the joke told by Lin Qianer, who has been famous all over the capital recently? The question suddenly raised by my ninth master made me frown slightly. Even he knows Lin Qian'er? Wasn't it too flamboyant a while ago? Fortunately, she has disappeared.

"That's her!" Xiao Shishi was interested, and he said with bright eyes, "She told a joke called "Teasing You" that has spread all over the capital!" I listened to the thirteenth brother from my mother's concubine, and I laughed so much that I was angry. Now I still have a stomachache when I think about it. My mother drank tea, and even the fourth brother, who always has a solemn face, laughed with a trembling.

The eighth brother and my ninth master also looked at each other and smiled. Have they also heard of it?

"I heard about the book in the teahouse." Lao Shi said. The storyteller also told a parrot joke, which was even more funny than this.

Xiao Shishi immediately cheered up. He threw away the snack skin in his hand and said, "T tell us quickly!"

The eighth brother and the ninth brother also looked at Lao Shi with great interest.

Lao Shi sold it. He asked the servants to remove everyone's tea before he began to talk, saying that he was afraid of spraying tea!

This old ten will be a gimmick!

"One day, a man passed by the market and saw someone selling parrots." Lao Shi saw that we were all working together to make a look that he couldn't wait to hear, so he began to say, "The parrot lay in the cage, still moving, and one foot was still hanging on the cage. The man was curious and wanted to ask the seller, but he saw a piece of paper pasted on the outside of the cage, which said:

'I'm not sick'

'The foot was not injured'

'Not even dead'

'I love to stay like this'."

Hearing this, Xiao Shisi had already sneered. The eighth brother smiled slightly, and Yin Zhen also raised the corners of his lips.

Lao Shi continued: "The man thought this parrot was quite good-te, so he bought it home..."

"This man goes home and teaches this parrot to speak every day, 'It's called Ama, it' (to be continued, if you want to know what will happen, please log in., more chapters, support the author, support the genuine reading!)

c But it doesn't say anything. More than ten days later, the parrot didn't scream. There was curiosity and laughter in the eyes of several people who listened to jokes.

"This man is very popular. He grabbed the parrot's neck angrily and roared: Call Ama, call Ama! But the parrot still didn't make a sound coldly. The man scolded: What's the difference between you and a colorful chicken? Just lock it in the chicken cage to vent your anger. Eight, nine and fourteen people laughed softly.

Lao Shi secretly glanced at a few people and continued to say, "But it didn't take long for him to hear a noise in the chicken cage. The man opened the chicken cage and looked, "He stopped and saw several people looking at him intensively before shaking out the last burden: "The parrot is grabling a rooster's neck and shouting: Call Ama! Call Ama!"

Boom, several people laughed. Fourteen laughed so much that he hugged his stomach and shouted that it hurt. The eighth brother and my ninth master were also shaking.

The ninth master was accidentally choked.

I carefully pounded him on the back and said delicately, "Sir, have a smile!" Ah, why does this tone sound like gloating? I swear that I am a good child with a kind heart and a pure heart.

He looked back at me and suddenly asked, "Why, Taoer thinks this joke is not funny?"

I was stunned and realized that my reaction after listening to the joke just now was too insipid, and I should have laughed with them. I not only didn't laugh, but also looked at his embarrassed smile and gloated. How could I not make him suspicious?

I hurriedly made a hard expression of laughing. I covered my mouth with my hand and said, "Master, Taoer is learning the style of everyone's boudoir. Sister Wanyan said that you should laugh and don't show your teeth."

Ah, I seem to have goose bumps on my body, and I resisted the impulse to rub it.

The wise and sensitive eyes looked at me faintly, and he said, "You learn so fast!" Just turn around and continue the topic just now.

This guy is always following my every move, thinking that he is laughing too much, but he didn't expect to notice that I was smiling or not! Tired, pretend to be so tired!

After laughing and coughing for a while, Yin Zhen said, "Where did this eccentric little girl come from? You can tell such a joke."

Ye, is he interested? Is he interested in Lin Qianer? I turned my eyes and secretly glanced at him, but I didn't see that he had any special expression.

I used the probability theory and the law of large numbers in statistics to calculate the possibility of his adultery with Lin Qianer, and the conclusion was that it was 100% impossible! Because, I don't allow it! Maybe you can think about it so that he can see it and can't eat it! Humph, if you dare to see the hunting...

Fourteen broke the dim sum stuffing in his hand into pieces. He said, "I'd like to see her if I have a chance. Let's see what she looks like!" Is the look in his eyes curious or yearning?

"I can't see it now! I heard from Narsu that she hasn't been in the capital recently and seems to have gone back to her hometown. Lao Shi said. There was a regret in his voice.

"That's a pity!" Fourteen said, "But I heard from Brother Thirteen that Lin Fengchi seems to cherish his cousin very much. As long as Lin Fengchi is still in the capital, she is not afraid that she will not come in the future."

They understand!

The eighth brother smiled and said, "It's time to meet. This Lin Qianer is not an ordinary woman!"

Lao Shi asked doubtfully, "Why did the eighth brother say that?"

The eighth brother looked at Lao Shi, the brilliance in his eyes flashed slightly, and his gentle face flashed wisely. He said, "Can an ordinary woman write a famous book with only two jokes when she arrives in the capital?" Ba Ago paused and then said, "These two jokes are also very special, which are different from the jokes we have heard before. Especially this Parrot!"! "

"The parrot in this joke is quite human." Fourteen slightly pondered and said, "I will pretend to be stupid in front of the master, but show my power in front of a chicken with a lower status than himself."

The eighth brother nodded to the fourteen with appreciation and said, "The person who can make up this joke must be a person who has a deep understanding of human nature. Don't underestimate a joke. Anyone can say a vulgar joke, but it won't make everyone laugh. There must be great wisdom in it that can make everyone laugh from the bottom of their hearts. Because it captures the origin of human nature.

This eighth brother really deserves to be called the king of the eight sages! The wisdom in his heart is not something that ordinary people can forget. No wonder two years later, when the prince was abolished, he could be supported by so many famous ministers and scholars, and he could be sought after by the literati in the south of the Yangtze River!

Which of those famous ministers and great scholars is not a literati who learn to be rich? The so-called literati are contempt, which literati who has a little goods in his stomach will sincerely admire others? But the eighth brother in front of him has the ability to bring the literati under his own command.

This is not just something that can be done with a little literary talent. In addition to his virtuous sergeant, he relies more on the wisdom in his heart.

My thoughts are still floating, but I heard Yin Zhen suddenly say, "Her time to tell jokes is quite special!"

Huh? I was shocked. What does he mean? Did you find any doubts?

I have always admired our ninth master's insight and analytical ability. Didn't he analyze something?

Fourteen stained a small piece of snack stuffing in the wine and said, "The first time was when Narsu lost the golden bowl, and the second time seemed to be in Uncle Gong's house. The third time... When she told jokes, there were a lot of people. Brother Jiu suspected that she had something to do with the theft of the golden bowl of the Narsu family?

Yin Zhen shook his head, frowned and said thoughtfully, "I just think it's too coincidental, but I can't say anything suspicious. After all, when the golden bowl was lost, she was telling jokes in the eyes of the public. It can't be her who stole the bowl!"

I was quietly relieved and slowed down my breathing as gently as possible. If I had known that telling a joke would have aroused the suspicion of these brain-developed brothers, I would have said two less.

"The two paintings of the third brother's family are even more unjust!" Lao Shi said, "The third brother loves the painting as if he loves it. He put it in the study and let people guard it every day. It's still stolen by this thief."
