Chapter 098 Grudge
Xiao Si, a clerk at the porridge cake shop, left the store with money and trotted back to his residence. Liu Yishou saw him coming back empty-handed and asked, "If you don't say to find some food, why did you come back empty-handed after a long time?"
Xiao Si quickly took out the ingot of silver: "Master, look, this is given to me by the shopkeeper of the porridge cake shop."
"How can I give you so much money for no reason?" Liu Yishou grabbed the silver and put it in his hand. Xiao Si stared at the silver, as if he was afraid that Liu Yishou would take the silver and walk in. He quickly said, "In order to take care of the master, I quit the job. This is the compensation they gave me. I'll calculate it. If we save it, we can eat it for three or five months."
"It's not promising." Liu Yishou raised his hand and said, "Can a stone eat for three or five months?"
Xiao Si wondered if the master was hungry and confused. He had thirty-six taels of silver, one taels of silver, and one taels of which could always be exchanged for seven or eight hundred yuan. A pot of wine was only a few yuan, and a good meal was only a dozen yuan. Thirty-six, seven or eight hundred and more boxes could not be packed. How could the master say that he could not eat for a few months? He reached out and took it. After passing the silver, he looked down at himself and was shocked. It was not a stone.
After a while, she recalled that although Pan Jinlian hated herself, she did not fool herself with the stone. Besides, there was a witness from the shopkeeper Sun of the gambling shop. It must be right to take back the silver. Thinking of this, he raised his eyebrows and said with a smile in the corners of his eyes, "Master, it's true that the disciple is not promising. If Master's unique skill teaches the apprentice One or two tricks, let's use this silver as the capital, and we still have to worry about the cost of a few months.
Liu Yishou sneered, "You are smart. Silver is here. You have to learn for a few months. You can exchange it for wine to buy some daily use. The rest, even if it is a pen, as long as you are willing to learn, you can still be rich."
Although Liu Yishou is a gambler, he is also poor and afraid. Especially he can't do anything without one hand. It is inevitable to think more about the future. Just now, it was just a highlight of the ability to steal beams and change pillars, so that Xiao Si can submissively and willingly serve him.
Xiao Si went out to exchange money, and asked a craftsman to repair the roof, doors and windows, and filled the stove. He really seemed to live a good life. By the way, he bought some wine and vegetables and took them home. There was money in his waist to walk straight. Unfortunately, he passed by the porridge cake shop and hummed with his neck. He thought that one day he would come out by himself. Show off in front of the couple.
"Hey, you don't work well and you're lazy." On the steps of the porridge shop, a little Wu Song inserted his waist and pointed to Xiao Si.
Xiao Siyi pushed Wu Song's forehead and almost pushed the child staggered, "Little thing, can you take care of it?"
Wu Song quit. He patted his buttocks and stood up. He knew that he couldn't beat him. As soon as soon as he turned around, he picked up the door bar and turned to Xiao Si's leg wheel. Xiao Si said, he was annoyed by a stick on his leg and kicked him. Wu Nan and his wife heard the noise outside the door and just went out of the store. Seeing that Xiao Si was about to kick Wu Song with big bullying and small eyes, Wu Nan stepped forward. He protected Wu Song and got a little four kick instead.
Pan Jinlian saw this and scolded, "Popi Xiaosi, my family has been taking care of you for many years. You are so angry that you are angry to death. The Wu family will help you in the funeral. In the end, you bully the Lord. You are really a disloyal and unfilial person."
"Shut up, bitch, and then talk nonsense to you***." Xiao Si stared back. The door gradually surrounded the people. They all pointed to Xiao Si and said that he was disrespectful and bullied honest people. Xiao Si was like a public target. Seeing that the situation was unfavorable to him, he turned his head and wanted to leave, but he was blocked by several big men. At first glance, it turned out to be the clerk of the gambling shop. Sun Qian, the shopkeeper, stood on the steps and said, "Xiao Si, it was originally a matter between your masters and servants. It's over, but what's right now is obviously your fault. If you don't admit your mistake, don't blame these guys for being reckless.
The neighbors in the street usually hate this little four for being disappointing. Seeing Sun Qian say so, they all coaxed, "Ap admit your mistake, admit your mistake."
At first, Xiao Si was also unconvinced and wanted to break out, but he was pushed by several clerks and couldn't walk. He dropped something, sprinkled wine and was inexplicably punched a few times. He hurriedly whispered and returned home.
He entered the door aggrieved stomach and scolded: "Bad dwarf, damn mother-in-law, and old man Sun, one day I will make you look good."
Liu Yishou looked at his embarrassment and asked, "Is there something wrong with you when you go out?"
Xiao Si said resentfully, "You know, why is this Wu Nan's dwarf so lucky? He got my family and married such a handsome daughter-in-law. At the beginning, he relied on his uncle as a county job. Now that his uncle has left, he is protected by Mr. Sun, and the dead mother-in-law is quite handsome. How can they scold people so cute? They Wait, when I have money, I, I..."
He didn't know what to do if I had money for a long time.
Liu Yishou smiled and said, "Pretty little lady, no matter how handsome you are, you can be as handsome as the eldest lady of the Sun family in those years."
Xiao Si looked at the master and smiled **: "Miss Sun, which Miss Sun, I don't know others. Anyway, the little lady of the Pan family in this county is one of the best. You see, the porridge cake shop business is so popular that half of the diners have to see Mrs. Pan. They are called porridge Xishi, and you Think about it. If I'm not here in the future, I can't help but look at the frivolous and promiscuous prince. With Wu Nan's dwarf, I'm afraid that there is nothing I can do for someone to take him away.
Liu Yishou smoothed his hair: "What's wrong with the prince? When will the master come out to help you take it? You take the shop, I take the lady, and we take it at the same time, hahaha"
Xiao Si said, "That's a good relationship. I don't dare to show my power to me. Master, when will you teach me gambling?"
"What's the hurry? You can find something later, look for a pair of dominoes, and buy a few jars of vinegar, candles, gauze and so on. Let's start tomorrow when it's ready."
"Other than that, why do you have so much vinegar?" Xiao Si asked puzzledly.
"soak hands"
Master's answer was concise, and Xiao Si did not dare to ask more questions. According to Liu Yi's teaching every day, he practiced cards and practice his hand speed. At the same time, he had to soak his hands with vinegar every day and soak his hands soft. After half a month in the blink of an eye, Xiao Si really had some talent. Liu Yishou began to teach him skills. After another half a month, he also practiced skills skillfully.
After practicing the basic skills as usual on this day, Xiao Si went out to buy some wine and vegetables. The master and apprentice sat together. Xiao Si poured a lot of wine for Liu Yishou. These days, he practiced every day without dripping wine. Just about to warm himself up, Liu Yishou asked slowly, "You also want to drink."
"Yes, I want to drink it."
Liu Yishou said, "Do you want to drink or make money?"
"Of course it's to make money." Hearing the master's words, Xiao Si quickly put down the wine pot.
"Remember, if you want to make money in this industry, you will not drink in the future."
Xiao Si was puzzled and said, "Master, you."
"I, I've ruined it for a long time. I drank too much and my hands trembled. I think you do have some qualifications. If you can't learn, forget it. Since you have the qualifications, don't ruin yourself."
Xiao Si hurriedly said, "Thank you for your teaching."
Liu Yishou said while eating and drinking, "If you dare to wait for you to pack up tomorrow, we can walk around, and you can also practice."
"There is a gambling house in front of my house. Why don't you practice here?"
"Nonsense, it's a mule that has to be led out. If you don't study well, don't fool around here in the future. Go out and wander around. If you don't ask questions, you will be shocked when you come back. If you can't break out, don't be embarrassed here."
Hearing that the master was going to take him out to break in, Xiao Si's eyes were shining with excitement. He gritted his teeth and said, "Well, I'm thinking about when I can come back and make a surprise. I'll clean up the old man Sun and let the dwarf Wu have a look."
"I also want you to be developed as a teacher, so that I don't have to hide from others like this, and I can have a little lady's pastime. Don't say that I really saw Mrs. Pan in the porridge cake shop today. She is really handsome and a little spicy. It suits my mind very well, hahaha."
Seeing Liu Yishou laughing, Xiao Si was also very proud. He hurriedly filled Liu Yishou with wine. Liu Yishou took a sip of wine and asked, " By the way, our master and apprentice for so long, I only know that your name is Xiao Si, but I don't know what your name is. Do you still have brothers and sisters?"
"I'm an only child. There are no brothers and sisters. If there are, I will be bullied by the dwarf Wu Nan."
"Why is that called a little four?"
"Hey, it's not my father's illiterate waste. My surname is Qing. My mother gave birth to me in Ximen. Once a year, the government makes a book. My father went to register for me. He was not literate and didn't say that he could find a literate person to write, so he ran to Ximen and wrote it according to the words on the city gate. The household book of that house was also taken. The gourd drew a ladle and wrote it crookedly. How to look at how to write the word Ximen as Si'er. My mother said she wanted to change it. My father said that it would be better to have four children, but to make mistakes, so my Qingximen became Qing Si'er. As he spoke, he shook his head with regret.
The next day, the master and apprentice who packed up the salute went out of Qinghe County with the remaining more than ten yuan. Qingximen followed the master out of the gate. Looking back at the two words on the wall of the west gate, he thought to himself: I was born here and made a fortune in the west gate again. If I could come back one day, I would change my name and call the west gate. Qing, at that time, it will run rampant in Qinghe County, and no one dares to provoke him.
There is a saying that the world is unpredictable. Wang's side can't calculate. He certainly didn't expect that this fourth son could really change his name in the future. It was really rampant in Qinghe County and became more and more worried about the Wu family. At this time, Wang's side had already arrived in Dengzhou. He was supposed to sail straight from Dengzhou to Goryeo, but he was delayed for a few days because of another thing.
Along the way, when he heard that he was going to take a boat to Gao Liu, Dai Zong looked embarrassed. Wang Bian knew that Dai Zong knew that Dai Zong was known as Shenxing Taibao, but he was seasick. Several people arrived in Yunzhou before going to Dengzhou. Because Li Gefei had met Wang before when he entered the capital before, the two agreed that Wang Bian would When he came to visit, he rested in Yunzhou for two or three days. The king asked Dai Zong to go to the Nvzhen tribe of the Liao Dynasty first, and sent a letter that he would go there to let Rouer and Zhennan wait for him at ease. At the same time, Wang heard from Li Gefei that Li Shining in Dengzhou had always wanted to see Wang. The name was very familiar. Wang remembered what he said to Han Jiang.
