But Yang Xingyuan asked He Jianchen if he was doing black goods business, and He Jianchen said: "No! No!" Yang Xingyuan said: "That's doing public debt business." He Jianchen said: "Doing public debt business is not considered immoral. No! no! "Shi Chengran said beside him:" I understand this matter very well.He is convenient for others and convenient for himself. While seeking officials for others, he builds a golden house for himself. "Speaking to He Jianchen, he smiled and said:" Do you think so? " Before He Jianchen answered, Yang Xingyuan said: "Oh! I understand this, it must be that he begged Mr. Hua, and it's a foregone conclusion. For this matter, Mr. Hua even gave me a Zhiluo For clothing, I am a matchmaker for sports.

Because of Jian Chen's indifferent attitude, I didn't look down and say it, I felt very sorry for Mr. Hua, but they had already set the terms. After taking off, he crossed the table and said to He Jianchen: "Congratulations! When is the red silk from Yuelao's tie?" He Jianchen said with a smile: "Although there is such a sentence, it is just for fun. How could such a thing really happen? .Think about it, which guest has a hot girl and has nothing to ask for? If it becomes a fact, then the Bada Hutong team does not need to be opened." Yang Xingyuan said: "This is true, but your business should be Don't talk about it." He Jianchen said: "This is strange, we go shopping the same way, and they are girls in the same way, so why don't we talk about the matter between me and Mr. Hua?"

Yang Xingyuan said: "Even if you don't have such a plan, let me ask you, you just said that there will be an expense immediately, what kind of expense is this?" He Jianchen said: "It's just a personal debt." He Jianchen held a pen, dipped the ink in the ink cartridge, bowed his head and remained silent, but glanced at Yang Xingyuan across the table.Yang Xingyuan understood, so she remained silent.Shi Chengran and his colleagues didn't pay attention to it, so they dismissed it.After editing the manuscript, He Jianchen said to Yang Xingyuan: "I'll go to your place tomorrow morning, please don't go out, wait for me." Yang Xingyuan knew that something must happen, so he agreed.

In the morning of the next day, He Jianchen really came to the Yang Xingyuan Guild Hall.Yang Xingyuan smiled and said: "I already guessed your reason for coming, you want me to be a ready-made matchmaker, don't you?" Aren't you already raising funds yourself?" He Jianchen said: "That kind of money is not guaranteed. If I want to do this thing, I have to find a reliable amount of money elsewhere before I can let it go Do it." Yang Xingyuan smiled and said: "There is no third person here. Let me ask you, what is the condition that Mr. Hua and you set? You might as well tell it out, let everyone think it over." He Jianchen said with a smile: "There is no condition. Anyway, I will pay off the debt for her." Yang Xingyuan said: "That is an old method, of course. I want to ask you, how did you come up with this idea? How did you start the negotiation?" He Jianchen laughed and said: "This is too much. Long, how do you talk about it?" Yang Xingyuan said: "That's hard to say. You can start from the day when it was officially launched." He Jianchen took out a cigarette from the cigarette box on his body at this time, lit a match and smoked it, breathing After taking a puff of the cigarette, he flicked the ashes on the cigarette with his finger, raised his head and thought for a while, then said a word, and then smiled.Yang Xingyuan said: "Just say what you say, and don't say it if you don't say it. How can you be so pretentious?" He Jianchen smiled and said: "I think I'd better tell you this, anyway, you will know it anyway." Yang Xingyuan said: "No, the more you do this, the better it sounds, you have to say it!" He Jianchen said with a smile: "If I tell you, I'll tell you. You don't want to tell Li Yun, lest it spread among the sisters. It's embarrassing." Yang Xingyuan smiled and said, "Even though Huajun has moved to Fengxian Class, they still see each other often. I'm afraid she already knew about Huajun, so why should I tell you? Are there any other conditions? I It's all agreed, you can announce it!" He Jianchen took another puff of cigarette, and then said with a smile: "Last two weeks, didn't I take a day off? That day I went to a relative's house for a wedding .

When I saw young couples interacting one-on-one, I was really envious, and the thought of getting married immediately aroused again.I said to the protagonist that I wanted to return to the hall with an excuse, so I left them and went to the Fengxian class secretly.When I got to Huajun's room, she asked me why I was so drunk and my eyes were red.I said that I just had a wedding, and after I said this, I lay down on the sofa chair as soon as I leaned over.She said: "Hey, I'm very drunk, let's eat some fruit." She twisted a towel to wipe my face, and peeled pears for me to eat. Actually, I was not drunk, but I was tired from walking alleys. Now, since she wants to serve me personally, I can take advantage of it. At this time, it was already twelve o'clock, and she was also crowded on the sofa, holding my hand and saying: "Is it better now? ’ I said: “I feel very thirsty and dizzy, just sit for a while and it will be fine.” She said: “Tomorrow morning, are you okay? ’ I said: ‘There are things that happen every day, but you can put it off, if you have any orders, of course I can find time to do it with you tomorrow. ’ She said, “You’re pretending to be dumb again. I don’t have anything for you to do tomorrow. I’m talking about today, why are you pretending to be dumb?” Yang Xingyuan laughed and said, “According to what you said, you are a child. Zhiyu, you got what you want. What happened next?" He Jianchen said: "The subsequent procedures are nothing more than a few words, so there is no need to mention it. At one o'clock, her aunt had already left, and she formally opened negotiations with me. , she said: "You are an old white man, and you have been with me for more than a year. You can tell what is on your mind.In all fairness, how do I treat you? ’ After finishing speaking, he declared again: “You have to tell the truth, no rice soup is allowed.” I said, “If you don’t drink rice soup, you treat me very well. ’ She said with a smile: “Daddy, I didn’t ask if I treat you well, but if I treat you sincerely or pretend to treat you?” I laughed and said: “It’s hard to say this sentence. Probably not a lie! ' She said with a straight face: "You are really..." I didn't wait for her to finish, and said: "To be honest, you used to treat me very normally.In the past four or five months, I have been a regular customer of yours in my conscience. ’ She said: “Is there something similar to this sentence?” She smiled and asked: “Who else is there in your family? 'I said there was an old woman and two brothers.She asked the old lady how she treated others?I said that as an old man, it is the best thing to treat servants. My wife in the past was like my own mother and daughter with her.She said, "And your two younger brothers, do you have wives too?" 'I said: "Yes. But tonight, why did you ask me about my three-generation resume?" She smiled and asked: "Guess what?" ’ I said, “I already understood what you mean, but I’m a man of pen and ink, how can I have the strength to marry someone here? You are all used to the world of flamboyance, so how can you live with me as a nerd? After I said these words, I thought she must have a big reason to refute me, but she actually admitted that my words were justified. She said: "You are telling the truth. At this time, you have to show Eighteen thousand, of course you can't get it out.But six or seven hundred yuan, can't you piece it together? ’ I said: “I don’t believe what you said again. Could it be that your deficit is only a few dollars?” She said: “I don’t have any deficit, just a small account, which is worthless.It's just that this old man is too big a flower, and she won't let go without two thousand.I still have a few diamonds in private, which are worth more than a thousand yuan. 'Speaking of which, he smiled at me.Said: "If you really want to be a family member, this thing is useless. It's hard to say. For you, I'd rather take it off. As long as you scrape together a few hundred yuan, this matter will be successful." It was beyond my expectation.

Then he said: "You have such kind intentions. Even if I beg for a few hundred yuan, I will get it. But if you follow me, you have to live a life of green vegetables and tofu. You don't have a mansion to live in, and you don't have a car. Don't you regret it?' She said, "If you don't say this, I will understand it.To be honest, the people here want to go out to live in a foreign-style building and take a car, so they have to be concubines. They look good on the outside, but they can't express the pain in their hearts.At the age of one hundred, she is still an aunt, behind everyone else, and she will never be able to get ahead in her life.Many people have translated from good to good, but are they willing everywhere? '" Yang Xingyuan said: "Looking at Mr. Hua not coming out, he can see through vanity, so he has some plans.What conditions do you have for her? "

He Jianchen said: "On this day, I discussed it all night, but I tried to raise 700 yuan within a month, and when I got it, I started a formal negotiation with her leading mother. She agreed, so naturally nothing happened. If she didn't agree, Probably a big negotiation is inevitable. Fortunately, as long as I cooperate with Mr. Hua, I am not afraid that she will refuse. Now it is difficult to raise the money. I heard that you have a deposit in the post office, and I want to move it for you. I wonder if you could do me a favor? "Yang Xingyuan smiled and said: "You are also a contemporary financier, and you can penetrate every hole.To be honest, this sum of money was deposited on behalf of my brother-in-law's college entrance fee, and the total amount is less than two hundred yuan. If you take it, it will still be of no avail. "He Jianchen said:" It's not easy to wait in one place, I just recruited separately.It would be even better if it could be raised in one breath. "Yang Xingyuan said:" Let's say according to your deadline, there are still two weeks, just make up your mind slowly.If you can't think of a way to do it, I can always lend you the money at the post office, there is no problem. "He Jianchen patted Yang Xingyuan's shoulder with a smile and said: "Brother!It is rare for you to help me so generously, I will definitely be a good matchmaker for you and thank you. "He went away contented.

Yang Xingyuan was thinking in his heart: Unexpectedly, He Jianchen still had such a marriage.I only heard someone yelling in the yard outside: "Bastard! Did Mr. Xu miss your money? I want you to ask for it once or twice, before me!" Tomorrow, I will tell Mr. Liu, the director of the library, and the chairman, Wang Dutong, to throw all of you bastards out. "When Yang Xingyuan heard that it was Mr. Xu Er who lived in the hotel, he lost his temper there. He walked out of the yard to see what he was up to. I saw him standing in the big courtyard, gesticulating and cursing there, while the leader stood by with his hands hanging down, not daring to make a sound.Yang Xingyuan stepped forward and asked, "Mr. Ciwu, why are you so angry?" Mr. Xu Er took a step closer, pointed to the long class and said, "I have lived here for three years, and I have never owed anything. What kind of money did you borrow from him. Because of the tight money in the past two months, they were short of their food bills for two months. He asked me to ask for money. Seeing people begging me like this. This bastard thing, I really look down on me." Yang Xingyuan smiled and said: "Don't pay attention to him, it's not worth messing with them." Mr. Xu Er is not willing to listen, he is still an idiot to the long class The scolding of the bastard.At this time, a person came out from the side room and shouted: "Second Xu! You are wrong.

How much money do they have as long shifts to provide food for the husband who lives in the guild hall.It is also reasonable for him to ask you for money.Even if he's about to make a mistake, it's fine if you scold him, why are you making trouble? "When Yang Xingyuan looked back, he saw an old man with a bald round head, red pockmarks on his face, and a half-white beard under his nose. thick cloth socks and square-cut cloth shoes, one can tell at a glance that he is an old gentleman from the fields. His two big cuffs are half rolled up. He is stroking his beard with one hand and holding two walnuts in the other. Rubbing it in his hands, he opened his eyes like copper bells, and looked at Mr. Xu Er. When Mr. Xu Er saw it, he was a little timid at first. He said, "Mr. Hu, you don't know something. "Hu Sanlao opened his eyes and said:" What?

I don't know!You have crossed more bridges than you have traveled, how can you not know?I want to ask! "Mr. Xu Er became stiff after touching this big nail. It's not good to speak, and it's not good not to speak. Yang Xingyuan said to Hu Sanlao: "It turned out to be an old gentleman. I haven't seen each other for a year, and I'm getting fatter. Already, I hardly recognize it.When did you arrive in Beijing this time? " As he spoke, he dragged and dragged him to his own yard.Mr. Xu Er just got over this difficulty and slipped away.Everyone in the guild hall laughed, and said: "Mr. Hu is a rich man in Central Anhui, and his son is a member of parliament. He recommended Mr. Xu's secretary. Otherwise, Mr. Xu wouldn't be so obedient. .” Here Yang Xingyuan dragged Hu Sanlao into his room and asked him to sit down.He first said: "Mr. Yang, look at Xu Lao Er, he is just a little errand, and he is always in the position of an official. Do you think it is hateful?" Yang Xingyuan laughed and said: "He is this person. There is a little problem, but everything else is fine. In fact, there are many such people, and he is not the only one." Hu San said: "Mr. Yang, you said I scolded him, right?" Yang Xingyuan knew that this old man likes to wear a high hat, He said: "Your old man is a straightforward person. It should be said that only you, an old hero, can come out to do this kind of fight against injustice." Words, who knows that he is working hard on Hu Sanlao.He slapped his leg and said: "Here! Old nephew. Your words are my confidant.

I often say that you are the only one who lives in the guild hall clean and has no official taste.what sir? "Yang Xingyuan was afraid that he would scold him, so he said: "Don't pay attention to him, you old man, come to the guild hall, you can come and sit with me.I heard that when you were a young man, you traveled across fifteen provinces by land and water from north to south, and you saw a lot of things, and you were very willing to learn from your old man. "Hu Sanlao touched Hu Yu and laughed loudly: "Why?Old nephew, do you know that I have traveled through fifteen provinces? "Yang Xingyuan said: "I don't know anyone in my hometown, I have already heard it. "Sanlao Hu rubbed the two walnuts in his palm with a loud noise, stroked his beard with one hand a few times, and said with a smile: "It's really interesting to talk about going out that year.At that time, there were no ships or trains, and I had no choice but to go after traveling thousands of miles.Walking is nothing. There are robbers on the dry roads, and there are robbers on the waterways. Don’t pay attention to where the passengers stop and the boat docks. "When Mr. Hu said this, he rolled up his shirt sleeves, exposing his arm with a big scar on it, and showed it to Yang Xingyuan. Said: "Look! This is the knife wound cut by the thieves." Yang Xingyuan smiled and said: "What do I say? With this little achievement, it is enough to be called an old hero." Hu Sanlao saw Yang Xingyuan repeatedly Complimented him, and he was so happy that he smiled, and even told him about stealing and killing fat dogs in the village to eat when he was young.That day he talked here for several hours in Yang Xingyuan.From now on, when he came to the guild hall, he would not go to other rooms, but only sat in the Yang Xingyuan room. Time is easy, and it is a week in a blink of an eye.The funds raised by He Jianchen are still unavailable, and he is very anxious, but he is not willing to lose face as far as Hua Jun is concerned, and always says to Hua Jun that he is sure.It was Mr. Hua who thought to himself that the matter of six or seven hundred yuan was of course not a big deal in He Jianchen, and he could definitely have it, so she just started doing business lazily. Her leader, everyone called her Chen's family, was from Pudong, Shanghai. When she was young, she ate at a restaurant, so she didn't understand everything thoroughly.Seeing how close Hua Jun and He Jianchen have been recently, she had watched him a little earlier, and was planning to warn her. That night, a note came from outside, calling Hua Jun's office. After seeing the note, Hua Jun didn't plan to leave for a long time.Taking advantage of this question, the Chen family started talking to themselves and lost their temper.Said: "Don't be like this. Open the skylight and tell the truth, I don't have five thousand yuan, so I can't let you go. Don't be confused, give me such a hard top." As he said, he snapped the table Slap, a teacup on the table fell to the ground and shattered.Seeing that Chen's family was angry, Mr. Hua was already a little frightened. He was startled when he heard the sound of the table suddenly, so he sat down on a chair and cried.The Chen family sneered, and said, "Huh! You have a good idea! Who do you think I am! Don't blame others, you only blame your opium ghost master, why did you sell you?" Hua Jun heard this sentence As soon as he said that, he felt sad and burst into tears, so he took out his handkerchief, covered his face and fell on the table, sobbing and crying.The Chen family took out a cigarette from the pipe, struck a match, and took a puff.Holding the cigarette between two fingers, pointing at Jun Hua, he said, "I tell you, you should be bold and follow me to make money. Why don't you cry? Wait until you have nothing to do, and cry slowly." Hua Jun wanted to be with you. The Chen family stood firm to the end, thinking to themselves, it's not like today, and slowly fought against her.Having made up his mind, he could only hold back his breath, wiped his face with the cold water in the washbasin, opened the powder vat, faced the mirror, and applied a little cream again, splashed some dry powder, took out a small comb, He licked the hair in front of him.Turning his back to the mirror on the chair again, he turned his head and took a look at his back.After picking up everything neatly, I went out.Unexpectedly, as soon as Hua Jun went out, He Jianchen came across him.He Jianchen first smiled and said: "Unfortunately, I have to wait forever, you should come back quickly." Hua Jun grabbed He Jianchen's hand, his eyes were red, he confronted for a while, and then said: "Don't say anything to her, I have my own way, I can't keep eating." At this time, the coachman stopped at the door, lit the four water moon lamps on the car brightly, and crossed his hands on his chest. Looking in front of him, he was waiting for Hua Jun to get into the car, but Hua Jun didn't say anything, let go of He Jianchen and got into the car.The coachman ran away. He Jianchen couldn't figure it out, and was also stunned. He walked in with two feet unconsciously.After a while, Mao called for guests, and when he looked up, he realized that he was in Fengxian Class.At this time, someone shouted: "Miss Hua Jun, Master He is here." The Chen family heard that, so they rolled up the curtain to let He Jianchen in.A Gen, the little old mother in the room, was rushing to make tea, and said to He Jianchen: "Miss Wu just went out, and I met you five minutes earlier." He Jianchen said: "Who knows if you come five minutes earlier, I will I also met." Agen said: "Did we meet at the door? After all, he is an old customer, and his relationship is different. If someone else, Miss Ni, is not at home, he will not come in." Chen's family laughed: " Master He loves A Nan the most, so how could he do such a slippery thing. A Gen, didn’t I often tell you that Fifth Miss has a little girlish temper, and if she married someone as an aunt, she would be afraid of dying if she married her for three days. Call it to the old woman. I think if she doesn't want to eat at home, unless there is a regular guest who asks her to be a regular wife, and slowly teach her how to be a family, then it can be brought to the past.But where to find such a person?It just so happens that there is such a person. " He narrowed his eyes while speaking, and smiled at He Jianchen.He Jianchen pretended not to know, lay on a sofa chair smoking a cigarette, and smiled slightly at Chen's family.The Chen family said again: "The truth is the truth, and the jokes are the jokes. Mr. He, why don't you do a good deed and take Hua Jun away. My words are easy to say, and she is also very willing." He Jianchen heard this. , my heart skipped a beat, and I forced a smile and said, "I don't have such a blessing." The Chen family said, "Master He, you said it the other way around? To tell you the truth, Ah Nan is wishful thinking. Meaning. I just laughed at her for not knowing how to advance or retreat, thinking that she is only thirty years old, and even if his wife is dead, I am afraid that Miss Qianjin will be missing, so how can she come to the hall to marry someone." Then she turned around and asked Agen: "I'm just talking gossip, right?" He Jianchen thought, "This old guy keeps trying to make fun of me today. What's the point? Has Mr. Hua already started a formal negotiation with her? Never mind, I'll test her out too. Just." He laughed and said, "Very good, then, I'll prepare 10,000 yuan for this happy event." The Chen family said with a half-smile: "10,000 yuan, that's out of the question, and I don't want to be there. Ah Nan has made a fortune, all I need is to clean up the shortfall.” Having said this, she put on a serious face and said to He Jianchen in a serious manner: “If you behave yourself, you don’t want too much, we only have about three thousand yuan. Debt, Mr. He, if you pay three to five hundred yuan, the person will be yours. There was a guest in the past, who also paid this amount, and wanted to ask the fifth child to be the second wife, but I didn't answer him a word. He The master asks her to be his wife, monogamous, she is a good way out for life, I have to see through the money. Master He, you know, I treat her as if she came out of my belly , as long as I can go with you, Mr. He, I will feel at ease in my heart, and I can settle for anything." He Jianchen was smoking a cigarette there, listening to her words, but weighing every word in his heart. , How much weight does it have.After listening to it, he still smiled and said, "I also believe what you said. But I myself don't have the ability to spend two or three thousand yuan, so what should I do?" A Gen curled his lips, Then he said: "No one asked your master to borrow money, why bother to say such things!" The Chen family saw that He Jianchen's words were not at all extravagant, and they couldn't force Lao Wang's premise, so he just said some other things casually.In less than an hour, Mr. Hua came back, and He Jianchen sat down for a while and left as usual.The Chen family turned around and said to Agen: "Look how tight-lipped this man is, huh! He's in my hands, let's see what method you use to move it. Everyone, understand! You have to eat inside and outside. Teach her how to watch my old lady." One person went on and on and said a lot.A Gen listened intently to what Chen's family had to say, and leaned against the table without paying attention. His clothes dragged down a teacup, fell to the ground and broke.Chen's family said: "Agen, you also fell in love with a hot customer, are you planning to make trouble with me?" A Gen didn't dare to make a sound, picked up the broken bowl on the ground, and sent it out of the room.Hua Jun took a sneak peek at Chen's house, and saw that her face was as tight as a bulge, and there was a murderous look in the corners of her eyes, she was so frightened that she lowered her head and sat on the side, not knowing what to do, and feeling very anxious.It should be rescued, and then two gangs came, and after just such a mess, it was past one o'clock.The opportunity for the Chen family to vent their anger was over, so they went back to the small house.From then on, the Chen family and Mr. Hua broke apart day by day. He Jianchen went there twice and came back exhausted after hearing some sarcastic remarks. A few days a turn, another week.That afternoon, Yang Xingyuan and Hu Sanlao had a good talk, bought two catties of rice wine, a large plate of roast beef, and half a catty of peanuts, and ate peanuts and drank wine in the middle room.Hu Sanlao was very drunk, went into Yang Xingyuan's room, and lay down on the couch.Yang Xingyuan's dean's class cleaned up the house, brewed a pot of Longjing tea, opened the door, and sat by the door to watch the fallen leaves on the tree.I saw half-yellow and half-green leaves on the tree being blown by the wind against the white powder wall and falling to the foot of the wall one after another. They were all rolled up, blown up to a height of two or three feet, and then whirled around in the courtyard. From east to west, they all fell down at the same time, and piled up on the corner under the eaves of a porch.A while passed, and another.Yang Xingyuan was stunned, and suddenly raised her head, only to see He Jianchen running in hastily. Yang Xingyuan laughed and said: "What's the rush? Could it be that the joy is moving." He Jianchen said: "I'm very busy, don't talk funny things." Then, he cupped his hands at Yang Xingyuan and said, "I have two entrustments. : First, I will go to Tianjin immediately today, so I have to work too hard for the newspaper office. Second, I ask you to take out the money you deposited at the post office tomorrow.” Yang Xingyuan said: “How about it? Didn’t the happy news move? I’d like to hear the details of the news now.” He Jianchen said: “It’s a long story! I’ll tell you slowly when I come back from Tianjin.” Yang Xingyuan said: “No, you have to tell me about the happy event. To what extent, tell me how you can do it, and I will help you. Otherwise, I won’t care about it, so I won’t waste my troubles.” He Jianchen said: “It’s okay to tell you, but this is too long, and you are the one who likes to investigate the most. I'm really afraid to tell you. To put it simply, Mr. Hua has made a donation and lives in a small house. Now she is waiting for me to raise money to redeem herself." Yang Xingyuan said: "What? The donation has been refunded Did it happen? What day did this happen?" He Jiansheng said: "It happened yesterday, and I only found out this morning." Yang Xingyuan said: "She is the third child in Wuxi who does not let Yu Liyun in the Chen family. How could she easily get Mr. Hua to donate?" He Jianchen said: "How do you know that there have been quarrels over the course of a week, and I don't know how many quarrels there have been. The day before yesterday, Mrs. Hua simply excused her illness and didn't see any visitors. The Chen family was so angry that they called her into the small house. , without asking any questions, scolded and beat her, and gave her a heavy warning. Mr. Hua didn't cry, didn't make trouble, and endured the pain, and went back to the team without making a sound. I soaked four boxes of match heads and planned to drink them, but Agen saw them and snatched them away. Turning around, Chen’s family came, and the turtle bustard gathered together to discuss, saying that you can control her people, but you can’t control hers Heart. As long as the surname He pays a few dollars, you can let her go. Otherwise, if you continue to make trouble like this every day, the business will be hopeless. If there is any trouble, wouldn’t it mean that people and money will be empty? The Chen family thought carefully, There was really no other way, so I had to take her back to the small house to see her in person, and said good or bad to her, saying: "I don't want you to be a good person, I just hope you can help me for two more years to clean up the deficit." , let you go again.Now that you want to be a good wife, it is a good thing for you all your life, and I can't waste your life for me.It's just that you walk away quickly and leave me, like a blacksmith's apron, covered in fire, what's the matter?I haven't treated you wrong in the past few years. If you follow others, don't you think about it for me?Kuangsi, my deficit is always because of you.Since you are leaving, you should think of a way for me.Ah Nan!I always treat you as my own son and daughter. It will be a long time for you to be a wife with someone else. I beg you, just this once.Are you really cruel to teach the creditor to kill me?Why don't you ask me? 'Speaking of this, he wiped his nose and began to cry. "Yang Xingyuan said: "How do you know such details? "He Jianchen said:" Agen came to tell me this.Hua Jun's heart softened after all, when she cried, his heart softened.So I asked Agen to invite me to discuss this matter.After all, at least 800 yuan should be prepared.I was determined not to be able to raise money in Beijing, so I had no choice but to go to Tianjin myself and sell a few pieces of diamonds there. "Yang Xingyuan said: "Did Jun Hua really give you the diamond? "He Jianchen said: "This can't be fake. "As he spoke, he took out a silver cardamom box from his body. Opening the box, there were two rings with diamonds the size of peas, and another pair of earrings with a pair of smaller diamonds embedded in them. He Jianchen showed Yang Xingyuan one by one, smiled slightly and said, "How about it? "Yang Xingyuan didn't expect Hua Jun to have these savings, and he could give it to He Jianchen completely. It was really unexpected. He was envious and admired, and said: "These four things are worth more than one thousand two or three hundred yuan. According to my opinion, it can reach fifteen thousand.You don't have to raise much if you sell out completely. "He Jianchen said: "You don't know, it's not a matter of taking someone home.Adding clothes, buying wooden furniture, and pocket things at home, where is there no money?According to my calculations, at least one thousand must be prepared.Even if I go to Tianjin, I'm not sure, I'll still hit the wooden clock. "Speaking of which, I looked at the watch in my hand, it was already five o'clock. Said: "I still have to go to a few places. That's what it says, please!Please! "As he spoke, he still carried the box of cardamom in his bosom, and left in a hurry. That night, he went to Tianjin.Unexpectedly, after going there for three days, I didn't get a penny. Although the diamond was sold for 1,400 yuan, it was far from enough, and Mr. Hua already lived in a small house. If you asked her to wait, it would not only save my face Closing the customs, I am afraid there will be changes in case.Where can I live in Tianjin, I have no idea at all, so I ran back again.Think about it for yourself, Yang Xingyuan is the only one who can make a plan with me.After getting off the train, I went all the way to Wanzhong Guild Hall. As soon as he entered the door, he wanted to tell Yang Xingyuan with Pan, but there happened to be an old man with red pockmarks and white beard sitting in his room, telling him not to speak.Seeing He Jianchen coming, Yang Xingyuan couldn't bear it anymore, so she first asked: "You have been in Tianjin for three days, how did you wait for the money?" The money is inexplicable, so how good is that? I wanted to stay there for a few more days, but I couldn’t ask you to do it for me for a long time, and I wanted to spend it..." Speaking of which, Fang felt that there was a stranger next to him, He stopped talking for a moment. Yang Xingyuan smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, our Sanlao Hu is also a man with a bodhisattva heart. He likes to take care of other people's children's accounts the most. If you have something to say, just say it." He Jiansheng said hesitantly: "Think about it, that one Since she left the place and lived outside, she wished she could leave them sooner. Otherwise, she would not suspect me, and she would have to guard against their changes. So I must come back in a hurry." Yang Xingyuan said: "But Are you sure about the money when you go back to Beijing?" He Jianchen paused his feet and said, "How can you be sure." Then, he smiled all over his face, and cupped his hands to Yang Xingyuan again and again: "You still have to help me a little bit Busy." When they were talking here, Hu Sanlao sat on the side without saying a word, stroking his beard with his left hand, and holding two walnuts in his right hand, rubbing them together.Seeing that He Jianchen had finished speaking, he stood up suddenly, and said to him: "I'm going to make more of this, I'll lend you a thousand dollars to your brother, to finish this happy event, okay?" He Jiansheng heard this sentence Words, really unexpected.But seeing his decent speech, it was by no means a joke.Then he cupped his hands and said, "I was too busy when I entered the door just now. I didn't even ask your old man's name. It's really a so-called meeting by chance. How dare you bother me?" Sanlao Hu blushed and said, "Mr. He, do you think I Is this man with a big beard still making fun of you? Don’t look down on my country old man and take out ten thousand coins, that’s really nothing." Yang Xingyuan heard Hu Sanlao say to borrow one thousand yuan The money was given to He Jianchen, the joy was no small matter, and he was about to say something, but He Jianchen said a few words, and the old man froze.Almost ruined a very good thing.Quickly winked at him and taught him not to talk too much.Then he smiled and said to Hu Sanlao: "I know what you can say and do, you old man. You old man is just doing these heroic deeds in high spirits. I am late, senior liar, asking your old man to lend a thousand dollars to someone he does not know to do such an unimportant thing, wouldn’t it be unfair? At that time, Mr. He will not be able to give it out for a moment Paying money to repay debts will make everyone feel bad. What do you think, old man?" Sanlao Hu said: "It doesn't matter, I will do my own thing, so why should they say no. If you think I am joking, I will take it tomorrow." Hand over the money, okay?" Then he said to He Jianchen: "Friend! You and I don't know each other well, so if you want me to lend you a thousand dollars, it's impossible to talk about friendship.To be honest, I lent you the money for the sake of that little girl.I thought she was so pitiful, I lent you the money so that I could teach her to jump out of the fire pit. "The old man said it repeatedly, He Jianchen couldn't figure it out, he was stunned for a long time, unable to speak. Yang Xingyuan smiled and said: "I have to tell you this.Didn't you talk a lot with me when you went to Tianjin that day?The old gentleman slept in the next room and heard it all.After you went, the old man asked me, and I naturally said it, and he admired Mr. Hua very much.Yesterday Mr. Hua called to invite me to ask for your information. The old man is here. He said that there are people like Du Shiniang now, so he has to go and see.After meeting, he is confident that his old eyes are not flowers, and he recognizes that Mr. Hua is an enlightened woman, so he will lend you this money today.It means the beauty of an adult gentleman.You don't know, the old man has this temper, he wants to help, he doesn't care about the depth of friendship.The old man often compares himself to Deng Jiugong, so one can imagine his mind. "He Jianchen listened to what Yang Xingyuan said, and he had already understood it, so he bowed three times respectfully to Sanlao Hu, and said: "I don't know what happened, if I knew, I would never refuse. “说到这里,又向胡三老一拱手道:'哪末,就全仗您这位老黄衫客了。”胡三老笑道:“黄衫客这个称呼,却不敢当,你也不是李益一流的人。这一千块钱,不过是借给你,暂救目前之急,又不是送给你。要是白送给你,那才算得是侠义作事啦。”何剑尘道:“不然,君子济贫不济富。我并不是借钱还不起的人,自然犯不着要老先生白送。倘若真是穷小子,老先生真送一千块钱给我,也未可知哩。”这句话胡三老颇听得入耳,摸摸胡子,点一点头道:“这话很对。”杨杏园心里想道:“何剑尘这人,真会看风转舵,居然大拍起来了,我索性紧这老头儿一把,别让煮熟的鸭子飞了。”便哈哈大笑道:“今日之事,痛快已极,我要浮一大白。”说着,拿出一块钱来,叫长班去买上好的三斤花雕,又打电话给通商饭庄,叫他送几样大碗菜来。对胡三老道:“你老人家常说我不配陪您喝酒,这位何先生却有个上斤的酒量,回头可以和你比比了。”胡三老道:“喝酒我是不推辞的。不过这位何先生还没有谢我,他怎好和我先吃起你的来。”杨杏园道:“有酒就喝,管他是谁的。今天算我代他谢您,明天他再还我的礼,你老人家来个双份儿,不好吗?”说说笑笑,一会子菜都来了。杨杏园便叫长班胡二拿出一把大壶,把酒烫的滚热,然后将菜摆在桌上,点起灯来,三个人便开怀畅饮。喝到一个钟头以后,胡三老一人,差不多喝了一斤半,忽地站了起来,把背心一脱,搭在胳膊上,在大袖子里,抽出一条毛绒手巾,只擦头上的汗。说道:“不能喝了,再喝就要抬回去了。”说着,踉踉跄跄,就走了出来。杨杏园一时没拦住他,他已经出门了,心里正怕他摔着,只听见院子里“噗咚”一声,接上一句“哎哟”,大家都吓了一跳。要知怎样了,且听下回交代。
