Chapter 27 Chapter Twenty Seven

The sky is dim, and the pedestrians on the streets are lonely in the evening.Zhu Chuanwu and Zhen Sanjiang stopped in the same car at the intersection of the street. Chuan Wu looked around and asked Zhen Sanjiang to get out of the car. Xian'er, who had been waiting for a long time, rushed over and said, "The master..." Chuan Wu rolled down the window and said "Let's go!" Zhen Sanjiang leaned against the car window and said, "Brother, you risked your life to save me, how can I thank you?" Chuanwu said, "Stop talking nonsense! Go!" Xian'er and Zhen Sanjiang got on their horses and disappeared. In the darkness.The car also sped away.

Xian'er and Zhen Sanjiang returned to Erlong Mountain, the fourth child had already prepared dinner and wine.Several leaders accompanied Zhen Sanjiang to drink together.Zhen Sanjiang seemed to have something on his mind, and the fourth child said: "The shopkeeper, you have come out of the death row, you should be happy, why do I think you always make a fool of yourself?" Zhen Sanjiang said, "I'm not unhappy. And, I was thinking about how to repay Brother Chuanwu, who would have given up his life to save me!" Xian'er said: "As long as you have this kind of love in your heart, you are in charge. As time goes on, you will have a chance to repay me. Come on. , drink." Zhen Sanjiang took a sip of wine and said, "I don't know how I got the blessings in my previous life. I have been sent to death row twice, and I'm fine. This time it's Chuanwu, and last time it was the Shandong restaurant. The old shopkeeper..."

Xian'er's eyes widened in shock and said, "Oh, that old shopkeeper is Chuanwu's father!" Zhen Sanjiang was also extremely surprised and said, "Really?! I... the Zhu family saved my life twice, and I Even if I live two more times, I won’t be able to repay this great kindness! I won’t repay it either! Brothers, remember, my son from Zhensanjiang is the watchdog of his old Zhu’s family!” He drank the wine in one gulp, tears filled his eyes, and sang: After singing, Zhen Sanjiang suddenly slapped his thigh and said: "Yes! Fourth brother, tell the brothers to grow their eyes. When they saw Pan Wuye's caravan passing down the mountain, they robbed it." The fourth child said: "Why? Just rob his family?" Zhen Sanjiang said: "This is also a favor for the old Zhu family. The Pan family has bullied the Zhu family a lot, let's relieve the Zhu family!" The fourth child said: "The big shopkeeper, just look at it. !As long as it is Pan's product, we will rob it, and the 'Hua Tong Zi Shang Xiang (Tribute for Love)' is not easy to use!" Zhen Sanjiang said: "Yes, that's it!"

Xiu'er was chopping firewood, and when she finished chopping, she piled it up again.Na Wen hid aside and peeked. She watched Xiu'er finished coding, walked over and said: "Xiu, the water in the tank is almost gone, you can carry some more water." Xiu'er readily agreed: "Hey." When Xiu'er went, Yushu couldn't see it, so he came over and said, "Sister-in-law, why do you always make Xiu'er do hard work?" Nawen said, "I did it on purpose." Yushu said, "Sister-in-law, you..." The text said: "I don't think she is really pregnant. If she is really pregnant, she can do all kinds of work? Didn't you see that she was chopping wood just now, and the big ax was swinging like a gust of wind, and no man can catch up with her." "Yu Shu said: "Yes, logically speaking, four or five months?"

Seeing the two daughters-in-law muttering, Wen Ta Niang understood in her heart, followed up with Xiu'er and said, "You girl, you are short-sighted, and you will step on a bridge of holes for you. Do you think you are capable of hard work with your body?" Xiu'er said: "Mother, I don't want to pretend anymore. I wrap a small pillow around my stomach every day. Not to mention the trouble, I can't work hard. Besides, there will always be a day when I pretend to show my secrets. At that time Why do you want me to stand in front of people?" Wen Ta Niang said: "Yes, mother, this is just for you to think about it. Let's take a walk for a while."

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law went out for a while, Wen Ta Niang went to a Chinese medicine shop to get some medicines, and then returned home.Seeing Nawen and Yushu enter the room, Mrs. Wen said with a cold face, "What do you two think?" Nawen and Yushu were puzzled.Wen Ta Niang said: "This time, it's time for you to iron the post, and it's time to have fun—the child in Xiu'er's stomach is lost!" That Wen timidly said: "Mother, why would you do that?" Wen Ta Niang said: "How can you do it? Why not! It's all because of you!" Picking up the broom bumps, he knocked on the edge of the kang and said, "What are you so worried about? Huh? Knowing that she is pregnant, you still ask her to do hard work all day long! The doctor said that when Xiu'er was pregnant with a child, she didn't take good care of herself, and the child would live after birth." If it didn't work, I killed the child and prescribed medicine for Xiu'er to take. You didn't go to the hospital to see where you were, and you would have to cry! That kid, even that little Que Que'er could tell What it looks like! My grandson..."

Xiu'er listened to what the old woman said, wanted to laugh but didn't dare, so she covered her mouth.Mother Wen saw Xiu'er's appearance, and said to Wen and Yushu: "Look, Gou Xiu'er was sad again when I mentioned that child. Who can not be sad? She is about to become a mother, and if the child says no, she will be sad." It's gone..." Xiu'er couldn't hold back her laughter, she covered her mouth and ran out. Mother Wen shouted: "Xiu'er, don't be too sad..." Then she said to Wen and Yushu, "You two did it! I don't understand why Xiu'er offended you? She was pregnant Children, you also hate her!" Nawen said: "Mother, don't be angry, it's all my fault, I deserve to die..." Yushu cried and said, "Mother, I'm sorry for my second sister-in-law. From now on, I must do more homework." Wen Ta Niang said: "I'm not picking on you to do more or less, I hate that you don't know how to love others!"

Nawen said: "Mother, I'm a mess. I let Xiu'er do heavy work, and the work has killed your grandson." Yushu said, "I'm not right, mother, I didn't even think about helping you." Let the second sister-in-law do some work and let her have a good rest." Wen's mother became more energetic and said: "Come on, the matter is over, it's over, so don't keep talking about it. Xiu'er lost the child, and she also It’s a confinement child, as a mother-in-law, I just bought some nourishing things for Xiu’er, what should you do as sisters-in-law, think about it for yourself.” Yu Shu said: “I’m also going to buy some nourishing products .” Na Wen said, “Yes, let’s go shopping together.”

Mrs. Wen said: "I bought it all, why do you two buy it? Let's get something real. From today on, Xiu'er will take a break, and I will leave it to you to bring her soup and food." We're married, okay?" Wen and Yushu hurriedly agreed and said, "Yes, yes." His wife Wen then ordered, "I won't say whether the meals you give Xiu'er are good or bad, but there is one thing: every meal It’s okay to repeat the dishes!” Xia Yushu said: “Mother, it’s appointed, we know that it’s bad during confinement.” Nawen said: “Mother, don’t worry, we will definitely serve Yuxiu well. .”

When the two of them went out, Na Wen stuck out his tongue and said, "Every meal is not the same. There are three meals a day, and it takes a month to be a confinement child. That's about a hundred meals. How can you weigh these one hundred meals, right? "Xia Yushu said: "Sister-in-law, I am also worried. I go to class every day, I can't come back at noon, and I come back late at night..." Na Wen said: "Ah... ah? Do you want to slip? Am I serving her alone?" Yu Shu said, "You picked this matter." Na Wen said, "Then don't promise to serve her! In front of your mother, you promise to be good, and you Give it to me, who is it?" Yushu hurriedly said: "I didn't push it all to you, I think, I will cook the breakfast in the morning, and you will cook the lunch and dinner..." The text squinted at Yushu Said: "You really know how to make arrangements. The most difficult thing to do is lunch and dinner." Yu Shu said: "I beg you. School is closed on Sunday, so I will do it all day. Isn't that okay?" Na Wen said : "Okay, who made me a sister-in-law. I just suffer hardships!"

Na Wen went back to his room.Chuanwen was looking at a menu titled "Summary Records of Man-Han Quanxi".From time to time, he wrote a few words on the paper: "This dish is available".Seeing that Wen come in, he held up the menu and said, "Hey, I found a treasure at a second-hand stall today. Look, the recipe for the Man-Han Banquet! I, I want to make a Man-Han Chengxiang!" Shoes on the kang.Chuanwen said: "Hey, did you have a full banquet of Manchu and Han in the palace back then?" The text got angry and said: "I'm calling a girl!" Chuanwen said inexplicably: "What's wrong with you?" Confinement! Let the whole family take care of me!" When the whole family was eating, Chuanjie said excitedly: "This trip is really smooth. One is because of my godfather's hard work along the way, and the other is with Zhen Sanjiang's horse whip!" Chuanwen said: "The horse whip Does it really work?" Chuanjie said: "It's really useful! When passing Xiemaling, when the whip was lit, Tianwaitian immediately let it go." Zhu Kaishan said, "How is the product selling?" Chuanjie said: "It's selling well. Wow! As soon as the goods came back, they were all sold, and the old nose who ordered with us. For a long time, I will go!" Zhu Kaishan said: "San'er, the more you do this, the more careful you are. The old old saying: You can't be complacent. Go further. There is also a meaning in this remark that cannot be careless." Chuanjie nodded: "Father, I know." At the same time, Boss Pan was crying and complaining to Master Pan Wu.Boss Pan said: "Father, Zhensanjiang doesn't open the store, and all the goods have been robbed." Fifth Master Pan said, "Zhensanjiang rarely robs merchants." Boss Pan said: "He robbed even harder! No matter how many good things I say, I can’t promise how much money I will give, and I won’t let in any salt and sauce! Dad, we can pay a lot of money this time!” Pan Wuye said: “Why did his old Zhu’s goods come back? He Tianwaitian took my money for nothing?" Boss Pan said: "I went to Xiemaling to ask. Tianwaitian said that the old Zhu's family has a relationship with Zhensanjiang, and the relationship is not ordinary. Facing Zhensanjiang, he is not as good as Tianwaitian. Dare to hold a hair." Pan Wuye said: "Ah, I understand, Zhensanjiang is helping the old Zhu's family! Back then, I didn't get along with Zhensanjiang, but now he is working hard for Zhu's family .It seems that the money surnamed Zhu has been spent, and it has been invested, which is going to be raised!" He thought for a while and said, "Tomorrow, we will gather people and restore the silk and satin village immediately. The appearance will be even better than before. ! Don’t think that our Pan family is going to fuck up now!” The father and father were discussing matters, and a policeman came in. Pan Wuye recognized that he was one of the people who inspected the fire scene that day, and asked him to sit down in the room.The policeman said: "Master Wu, the fire case of your silk and satin factory has some clues." Mr. Pan said, "Is there any clue?" The policeman said, "This kind of case is not easy to investigate." Mr. Pan said: " Who set the fire?" The policeman said, "You should have a clue in your heart, right?" Pan Wuye said, "Is it really the old Zhu's family?" The policeman said, "The old Zhu's family doesn't have such a big enmity with you, does it? When I took this case, I kept thinking that this must be done by someone who has a deep hatred with your family. Who could he be? I learned that ten years ago, you bankrupted the old Liu family who now runs a grocery store. You You also took over other people's property, and the old shopkeeper was sent to the prison by you, and died of hatred after he was released from prison. Wu Ye, is that right?" Pan Wuye said: "Do you know how my father died? Twenty years ago, his old Liu's family colluded with bandits and killed him because my father suppressed the price of goods and delayed his family's business. His old Liu My family laid hands on my family..." The policeman said: "I don't care about it, I solved the arson case. I also learned that Liu Dabao, the son of shopkeeper Liu, joined the army half a year ago." Pan Wu Grandpa said: "It must be him! Catch him! Catch him!" The police said: "Arrest him? Do you know which army he is in? I guess he may have even changed his name. I need to check again." Pan Wuye said: "It will take a lot of money, right? How much? I Here!" The policeman said, "Master Wu is smart! I'm a detective. I can't even solve this case. What else can I do! Just wait, I don't think Liu Dabao will spare you lightly, he will show up again .” It was early autumn, and the old pagoda tree on the slope of Sandaogou rustled in the wind.Boss Pan was tied to this tree.He looked terrified.Pan's silk shop reopened at noon, and he and a few friends drank a few more glasses of wine, thinking of looking for a place to have fun in the city, but unexpectedly, the alcohol was so strong that he fell into a drowsy sleep, and when he opened his eyes, he was tied to the tree. He covered his face with a black cloth and said with a fierce look in his eyes: "Don't be afraid, we will have a long time dealing with each other. I have sent a letter to your father, as long as your family sends the money, I will let you go back. "Old Pan nodded repeatedly, and let out a "woo-woo" sound from his mouth stuffed with cloth.The wind in the wilderness was gusty, and the masked man was blinded, and when he tried to rub, he accidentally tore off his mask. Boss Pan shivered for a moment, he recognized Liu Gen'er——Liu Dabao!Liu Gen'er simply took off the black cloth, stepped forward and slapped Boss Pan twice, and said, "Yes! It's me! Liu Dabao! What can you do to me? Tell you, I was the one who burned your silk and satin shop! Do you think You Pan family can be domineering, riding on our old Liu's neck to shit? Do you think my grandfather died for nothing? Our family is ruined for nothing? Do you think Shandong people are easy to bully? I want you to know Lao Liu The descendants of the family are amazing!" Pan Dabao hurriedly begged for mercy. Liu Gen'er stopped talking to him, tied him up tightly, and crossed the big slope of Sandaogou to the woods in Beitou. He told Pan Wuye to put the ransom money under the root of a big pine tree there. After watching for a while, after confirming that there was no one there, he jumped under the tree and saw a small cloth bag full of big silver dollars.Liu Gen'er smiled. Zhu Chuanwen and the waiters were arranging tables and chairs when shopkeeper Liu rushed in excitedly.Chuanwen said: "Shopkeeper Liu, it's so early..." Shopkeeper Liu said: "Here are two dishes, and then boil a pot of wine!" Chuanwen said: "Oh, the fire is not lit yet!" Shopkeeper Liu said: "Then you quickly Some!" Chuanwen said to a clerk, "Light up the fire!" Then he asked shopkeeper Liu, "Why are you so happy today?" Shopkeeper Liu said, "I'm happy—excited! Where's your father?" The text said: "It's in the backyard." Shopkeeper Liu said: "Please come and have a drink—Boss Pan has been kidnapped!" Zhu Kaishan had heard the sound and asked, "Who tied the ticket?" Shopkeeper Liu Said: "His old Pan's family has offended many people, and anyone is willing to attack his family! It would be better if the ticket is torn up, to relieve the hatred! Come, drink." Zhu Kaishan frowned, and took a sip of wine.Shopkeeper Liu said: "Last time he burned his silk and satin factory, but this time his silk and satin factory has just recovered, and his son has been tied up again. It's natural!" Zhu Kaishan said: "This is not what should be done in business. It's too late." Shopkeeper Liu said: "He, Mr. Pan Wu, doesn't do all the things that should be done in the business world!" Zhu Kaishan said: "That's true." The battalion commander and deputy battalion commander were reprimanding Zhu Chuanwu when Liu Gen'er's voice came from outside the door: "Report!" Zhu Chuanwu called him in, and the battalion commander said to him, "Okay, I'll give your company commander a good face!" Zhu Chuanwu asked : "Liu Gen'er, yesterday was a day and a night, and today is another afternoon, where have you been?" Liu Gen'er said: "I went to the street and met my uncle, he insisted on dragging me to his house, or Don’t let me go.” Zhu Chuanwu said, “Why didn’t you come back and ask for leave?” Liu Gen’er said, “It’s too late. I can’t beat my old uncle’s temper.” Zhu Chuanwu said, “I’ll put you in confinement!” Liu Gen’er said : "Yes!" The battalion commander said: "Forget it, just come back. Chuanwu, now the commander has a new regulation, he wants to enter the customs, beat Cao Kun and Wu Peifu, this is to grab the territory! Let's eat Lao Zhang If you go to the old Zhang’s house, you have to listen to people’s yelling. This time when we enter the customs, we will be organized into the third army and directly under the command of the young commander and Deputy Commander Guo Songling. It’s not as good as before. Forget it this time, and we must be strict next time. Get up." Chuan Wu and Liu Gen'er hurriedly saluted, nodding in agreement. The battalion commander was just about to go out after the training, but he saw Zheng, his adjutant, hugging Deputy Commander Guo Songling and a policeman rushing towards the barracks, and hurriedly stood at attention.Seeing that the battalion commander was there, regimental leader Zheng shouted: "It's just right that you are here, call me Zhu Chuanwu and Liu Gen'er." Chuan Wu and Liu Gen'er had already heard the sound, standing at the door, Chuan Wu didn't know why, Liu Gen'er looked gloomy.Commander Zheng said: "The commander-in-chief had instructed us to prepare for military training before entering the customs. However, some people not only did not actively train, but instead disturbed the people and corrupted military discipline. The military law does not tolerate it. Today, a fifth master Pan has filed a lawsuit against When he arrived at the headquarters, Deputy Commander Guo personally inspected it. Liu Gen'er, plead guilty." Liu Gen'er was lucky. When he released Boss Pan yesterday, he threatened him to ask his bandit friends to kill his whole family if he sued the officer. Visit him to the army.Seeing that Liu Gen'er responded, Chuan Wu stepped forward and said, "Report to the head of the regiment, Liu Gen'er has always been disciplined and responsible..." The policeman said with a dark smile, "Commander Zhu, there is no need to cover it up for him. His parents didn't know about it, and they wanted to lure people to Huzi. But we are not in this business for nothing. I saw him tie people into the woods of Sandaopo with my own eyes. Besides, except for this kidnapping He set fire to the silk and satin shop two days ago, right?" Zheng said, "Liu Gen'er, don't be stubborn. Just now, the adjutant has searched your shop. You still have a thousand oceans, and they all bear the name Pan Ji. I'm wronged. Not you." Liu Gen'er sneered coldly, and said: "Commander Guo, regiment commander, and battalion commander, his Pan family bullied people too much, and I, Liu Gen'er, finally vented my anger on my parents." Then he turned to Chuanwu and said, "Company Commander, Liu Gen'er is sorry for you. .”
