Chapter 59 Ugly
Chapter 59: Ugly
"If you don't give me money, if you don't have a benefactor, a certain brother and his wife and children would probably freeze to death and starve to death. For the benefactor, some money and food are a small matter, but for Huang Da, that is a big matter of life." Huang Da replied with a solemn expression: "So Huang Da dares to forget the benefactor's great kindness at all times, but he has never been able to repay it, so he dares not come to see his benefactor. Originally, Huang Da passed by Jian'an with the caravan today and saw the post posted by the senior brothers of the senior high school. It happened that a certain brother actually knew the skills required by the benefactor, so he revealed the post."
After asking more details, Wang Kuang learned that Huang Da's brother was not surnamed Huang, but Wang Kuang's surname was Wang. He was once a jade craftsman. In his early years, he lived in a jewelry shop in Luozhou. Because of his good skills, he was called Wang Wu. Although he was not rich in life, he also bought a family business and had no problem with eating and clothing on weekdays. Huang Da was an orphan, a young man in this jewelry shop, and had a good relationship with his brother. Once, when the shop closed and counted, he found that he had a precious jade pendant made by a customer. On that day, except for the shopkeeper, only Huang Da was there, so all the evidence seemed to point to Huang.
The boss believed that Huang Da stole the jade pendant and reported it to the official. Huang Da was young and could not torture and was about torture. He was about to be beaten and beaten. Huang Da's brother stepped forward and said that he accidentally broke the jade pendant and replaced Huang Da. In the end, he sold all his property but failed to compensate the jade pendant. Huang Da's brother suffered several years of torture in prison and fell ill. When he was released from the prison, he was no longer a human being. Later, Huang Da took his brother and his wife and children to move to Yanping. Since Huang Wang was pronounced in northern Fujian dialect, the two of them became sworn brothers. Huang Da himself was a porter for the merchants to support the family.
It turns out that he is a person with a story. From this story, Wang Kuang can infer that Huang Da is definitely not the one who steals the jade pendant, and it is even more impossible for Wang Wu to be skillful. Judging from what Huang Da said, the shopkeeper is very questionable, but many years have passed and there is no way to obtain evidence.
Since Wang Wu is good at grinding stone balls, the next thing is much simpler. Huang Da wrote a letter, and Wang Kuang arranged for people to pick up Wang Wu. According to Huang Da, they only built a thatched hut by the river in Yanping, so they simply took their family over. Anyway, the yard where Wang Ling lives is spacious, so they can just live in it. It just so happens that Wang Wu's wife can also help Wang Ling sweep the yard and sew clothes to supplement the family.
The diners in the inn posted a poster when they saw Wang Kuang, and they found the person they were looking for so quickly. Although there were coincidental elements in this, the effect of the poster column was obvious and they all said it was wonderful. At that time, some people who had needs were written in the inn. Most of the people who were outside the businessmen could recognize a few words, but there were also those who could not write them. Even the shopkeeper Yangsun helped him write a poster, and they all posted it on the poster column. It was strange that everyone trusted Fulai Inn, and maybe Wang Kuang. The contact information of the poster was left with Fulai Inn without exception. For this, the shopkeeper Sun had to specifically record these in this account book.
These posts are all kinds of strange things, some are guides, some are looking for some herbs, and some are looking for relatives who have been separated due to the war. The most funny thing is that there is a strange story in the world. As soon as it was posted, everyone laughed at and said, "Who will tell you the strange story? If you want to tell it, it will also tell the little boss, right? Look at the reward you offered, it is actually three strange stories just for half a plate of fried peanuts. The little boss is a strange story.
Smell it and give it a pot of wine." Under the laughter of everyone, passerby A pulled off the poster with a red face, pulled the passerby B and covered his face and ran away. It turned out that when he saw that the poster had effect, he was fantastic and wanted to attract strange news. Then he changed his hand to change a pot of wine with Wang Kuang, so he could take the opportunity to please Wang Kuang, but he didn't expect that the poster column was originally on the floor of Fulai Inn. If someone had strange news, he would definitely find Wang Kuang at the first time, not them.
The next evening, he came back from picking up the carriage of the clever Wang Wu. Wang Wu heard that the one who came to pick him up was Fulai Inn, who delivered money, food and horses the same year before yesterday. When he saw Huang Da's letter, he said he was going to help the little boss do things, so he naturally didn't say anything. Originally, there were not many things in the house, so he packed it up in just a few seconds. Now there are five horses in Fulai Inn, and the old horse was changed to a carriage. The four horses obtained from the Liang brothers were left in the inn and two were divided into Wangcun. If there was any situation, you could rush back in time.
Jian'an informed Wang Kuang and Sun Mingqian that Deng Shiyi and Deng Xiaosan were also arranged in Wang Village by Wang Kuang. After the Deng Sen incident, Deng Shiyi and Deng Xiaosan were undoubtedly among the most trustworthy people of Wang Kuang. However, Deng Shiyi and Deng Xiaosan were not sure that Deng Sen's affairs had been resolved for a long time. Wang Kuang was worried that Deng Sen and his surviving family would seek revenge on them, so he simply arranged it in Wang Village. Deng Shiyi made food for the veterans, and Deng Xiaosan was still doing his job and taking care of the cattle and horses. And those soldiers could protect the father and son well, which was a killing of two birds with one stone.
Wang Wu is here, and Wang Kuang must not go to see it. Not to mention Wang Kuang, even Wang Ling, apart from going to bed at night, always worked as a servant in the yamen or stayed in the inn all day. Wang Kuang has only been there once or twice.
After leaving the inn gate, I walked north for dozens of steps and turned right a few steps. Wang Kuang pushed open the gate. This was a large yard with a small yard. Wang Wu's family should have arranged it in that yard, but Wang Kuang saw a woman wearing a white-washed skirt bent over and cleaning the front yard. The dust was flying. When he looked up, he stopped. He was blessed and did not speak, as if he was standing there anxiously. This should be the Wang Wu's family, and there were only 30 or 40 families in the Sun Mansion, Wang Kuang recognized it.
Wang Kuang frowned. Wang Ling, when Sun Mingqian wanted to send him a few family members, he refused to say that he was used to being alone and could not stand others' serving. Wang Kuang, as his younger brother, couldn't say anything. Sun Mingqian sent people several times and was driven back by Wang Ling. He could not resist Wang Ling, so he had to do it. Now that Wang Wu's family has moved here, he naturally needs someone to serve. However, Wang Kuang only saw the woman sweeping the yard, but did not see the help of other people in the inn, and he couldn't help but feel a little unhappy, but it was difficult to show it. He rolled up his sleeves, found a wooden basin, scooped some water, and sprinkled it in the yard, and then said to the woman: "If you sweep it like this, there will be no dust."
The woman responded timidly, but she was not busy sweeping the floor. She opened her mouth and didn't know what to call Wang Kuang. She said she was a servant, but she had never seen any servant dressed so well. She said she was a family member, but she had never seen any children of the boss who could help others with their own work. In the awkward moments, someone rushed into the gate of the courtyard. When Wang Kuang saw that it was a cowboy, he felt unhappy and asked with a calm face: "How do you do things like this? Just leave the person and run away? Look at what the yard is like."
"Oh, little boss, you've wronged me. Didn't I go to the boss's mansion to call people? Then the person arrived." Niu Wazi saw that Wang Kuang's face seemed to be not very good, so he quickly raised his hand: "I'm going to help get medicine." They had already figured out Wang Kuang's temper. Sometimes, although they didn't look good, as long as they did nothing, even if they were against Wang Kuang, they wouldn't even give him a chance to explain.
Only then did Wang Kuang see a few bags of medicine in Niu Wazi's hand. At this time, the family of Sun's mansion also rushed over, some carrying bedding, some carrying pots and pans. Only then did he realize that he had blamed Niu Wazi for mistakes. He was a little embarrassed and quickly changed the topic: "What medicine are you carrying? Have you invited the doctor to see it?"
"Oh, it turned out that it was the little boss's house in front of him, and the woman was rude." The woman standing next to him realized that the little boss's house in Fulai Inn often hung in the mouth of her uncle. She quickly threw away her broom and came to salute: "I originally asked the doctor to see my grandson in Yanping. The manager Niu took the medicine that was caught by the prescription. Originally, the woman wanted to go by himself, but the manager Niu robbed the prescription. The woman saw that she was idle, so she swept the yard. The little boss's house should not blame Niu for being help from her. My son has always been grateful for her. How could he bother the little boss?"
"That's not possible. Don't decoct this medicine first, go and invite the doctor to take a look. This disease is nothing else. There will be changes in time and place. You have to ask the doctor to come to see it at any time. My sister-in-law, now that your family has come to Jian'an, that's the one from our Fulai Inn. How can you be wronged? Besides, I still need Wang Wulang to help me do things. How can I not treat this disease?"
Niu Wazi interrupted: "Sister-in-law, please stay here with peace of mind. Our little boss is a man, that's not a blow. You'll be there after a long time." Before he finished speaking, he was kicked by Wang Kuang: "You are moving again, why don't you go quickly!"
"The little boss is really, I see, Sun Er learned it from you, raised his hand and kicked his butt, raised his legs and hit his head. But he didn't learn it, but you didn't bring it if you pretended to be fake, so you kicked it directly." Niu Wazi patted his butt, and saw that Wang Kuang was raising his legs again, so he hurried out to call the doctor.
At this time, a child with a butt with only a bellyband ran out of the moon gate connected to the side courtyard. He looked only four or five years old, with a braid on his head and his feet bare. He ran and shouted, "Sister, Sister." After running for a few steps, hesitated, he ran over and rushed over and threw himself into the woman's arms: "Sister, Sister, Sister."
The woman put down the broom, squatted down, and let the child crawl onto her back. Then she stood up with the child's butt with one hand, and shook her body gently while saying, "Be good, be good at carrying it for a while and then play by yourself. Sister has something to do."
"Yes!" The child responded gently, and then gently pounded the woman's back with his hands: "Chou Chou helps sister massage her back."
Seeing this scene, Wang Kuang's eyes couldn't help but become wet. When he was a child, he always pestered his mother like this child, saying, "Sister, Sister, carry, Sister, carry." But he was far less obedient than this child and knew how to help his mother massage his back. He quickly carried his body, raised his head and pretended to look at the clouds in the sky, so that he would not let tears fall.
"What are you looking at?" Chou Chou saw Wang Kuang looking up at the sky, and also looked up at the sky, but he saw nothing, not even a trace of cloud.
"Oh, nothing, sand has entered my eyes." Wang Kuang turned his head and smiled at Chou Chou.
"Then Chou Chou helped my brother to blow. In the past, sand was in the eyes of Chou Chou, and it was all done by Sister Chou. Chou Chou also learned it and could blow his eyes for Sister."
"Don't scream Chou Chou, this is the little boss, come down and greet the little boss." The woman saw Chou Chou screaming at her brother and quickly stopped her.
"Oh." Chou Chou twisted his body, climbed down from his mother's squatted down, walked to Wang Kuang, raised his head and bowed like an adult, then tilted his head and said in a slight voice: "Chou Chou has met the little boss, and his elder sister and uncle often talked about you. But Chou Chou is very strange. Why do they always praise you, but they don't praise the brother of the neighbor's house. The brother of the neighbor always takes Chou Chou to play with him."
"Chou Chou is so good. I know, remember to take you to play with brother. From now on, Chou Chou can go to a very interesting place, and there are several brothers here. Chou Chou will call me brother in the future, do you know?" Wang Kuang squatted down and touched Chou Chou's head.
"Yes." Chou Chou turned his head and said to his mother, "Sister, look, my brother asked me to call him brother." He turned his head and saw Wang Kuang's red eyes: "Ah, my brother's eyes are really sandy, Chou Chou will help you blow." After that, he stretched out a hand, clumsyly spread Wang Kuang's eyelids, pouted his mouth, plucked his cheeks, and started to blow.
"This child." The woman was very embarrassed when she saw this situation, for fear that Chou Chou would make Wang Kuang unhappy.
"Sister-in-law, it's okay, let Chou Chou call me brother." Wang Kuang squatted and didn't move, allowing Chou Chou to blow his left eye and right eye, and praised Chou Chou again: "Chou Chou is so amazing. You have blown out the sand in your brother's eyes and it's gone."
