Chapter 7 Looking for Ancestors Children run on the street every day, but they have never entered Jinghong Tower.
The food at Jinghong Tower is the most delicious, and of course the most expensive. His father said that when he has money in the future, he will take him to Jinghong Tower for dinner. If he wants two bowls of rice, he will eat one bowl and pour another bowl.
His father would say it every time he had dinner, so in the child's mind, this Jinghong Tower was his father's dream, and of course, it was also his dream.
Now that I can finally walk into my dream, the child is a little nervous.
He has a problem. Whenever he is nervous, he wants to go to the toilet.
As soon as the child stepped into Jinghong Tower and looked around, there were carved pillars everywhere, and the child felt the urge to urinate.
It was not meal time at this time, the guys were cleaning. When they saw a child coming in, they thought it was a naughty kid on the street who was playing hide-and-seek and hiding here. A guy came over and yelled at the kid: "Go play somewhere else, hurry up, hurry up!"
Well, the child became even more nervous. He couldn't hold back his nervousness anymore. He thrust the piece of paper into the waiter's hand and said, "Here it is for you, shopkeeper!"
When the last word "cabinet" was mentioned, the child had already run out and couldn't pee in his dreams!
The clerk scolded him, and then looked at the paper in his hand. He knew a few words, but he couldn't tell what the words on the paper were when he looked at them horizontally and vertically. Is this cursive writing?Seal script?Or a ghost talisman? Even handed it to the shopkeeper, the little kid is not afraid of the wind blowing his tongue.
It was time for cleaning at this moment, so the man took a lump and threw it towards the dustpan not far away.
But his accuracy was not good, and the paper ball failed to be thrown into the dustpan. Someone happened to come in from the outside, and the paper ball happened to hit that person's shoulder.
The man frowned, and the clerk was shocked when he saw it: "Big shopkeeper, I didn't mean it!"
This is the first shopkeeper, not the second shopkeeper.
The second shopkeeper is usually in the shop, and the top shopkeeper only comes here occasionally.
The guy was about to cry. He was so disrespectful. He really didn't mean to do it.
The big shopkeeper kept a serious look on his face, glanced at the waiter, bent down and picked up the paper ball. He looked at the waiter again, and in the eyes of the waiter who was as good as dead, the big shopkeeper unfolded the paper ball. Suddenly, his tall body trembled. Suddenly, he raised his head suddenly, his eyes were as wide as bells, and shouted at the waiter: "Where did this come from?"
The boy took a few steps back in fright, his arms trembling: "Child, kid, kid gave it to me."
"What kid?" shouted the second time.
"Outside, there's a kid outside," the guy gasped, like a stranded fish.
Before he finished speaking, the big shopkeeper had already rushed out. The man was dumbfounded. What did this mean? But the next moment, the big shopkeeper rushed in like a gust of wind, picked up the little boy and said, "Let's go and find that kid!"
But where were the children? The man looked around and saw only a pool of urine at the base of the wall. Judging from the height of the urine, it was almost the child.
The boy wiped his tears and went back. He didn't find the child, only a puddle of urine.
At this time, the second shopkeeper was talking to the first shopkeeper: "Brother, you remember correctly, why can't I see anything?"
"I remember correctly. The day my great-grandmother handed over the restaurant to me, she showed me this signature and asked me to remember every stroke. I have a good memory and I can't be wrong. The words on this paper are the same as my great-grandmother's. What I saw is exactly the same, except there is an extra line of small characters. Look carefully, what does this line of small characters say?"
The second shopkeeper came closer to take a closer look. The first shopkeeper became impatient and said, "You took it backwards."
The second shopkeeper quickly turned the paper over. This time he finally understood. The line of small characters read: True determination on April [-], the third year of Chong'an "Isn't this today?" The second shopkeeper was puzzled.
The big shopkeeper nodded. It was indeed today. Grandma said that this piece of paper is a signature, which is equivalent to a private seal. A private seal can be faked, but this signature cannot be faked. And the row of small characters is actually the validity period and date of the signature. If the place of use is past today, or it is not in Zhending Mansion, this signature will be useless.
In other words, each signature can only be used once in one course, people who are willing can imitate it, but this signature has not appeared for decades. My grandma has been waiting for most of her life. The first shopkeeper suddenly said to the second shopkeeper: "Look for it, keep looking!"
"Are you still looking for that kid?" asked the second shopkeeper.
"Of course not, go find an old lady, an old lady who is 90 or [-] years old!" The boss wants to hit someone, but the second boss is getting more and more stupid! The matter of finding the old lady was left to the second shopkeeper, and the first shopkeeper left for the outside of the city. My grandma was now retiring in a village outside the city, and he wanted to report the matter to her as soon as possible.
Two hours later, most of the people in Zhending Mansion knew that Jinghong Tower offered a huge reward to find their ancestor! As for the amount of the heavy sum, I didn't write down, but everyone knew that it would not be a small amount.
He Ran originally wanted to take a stroll on the street, but when she smelled the aroma of wine, her wine bug was immediately aroused. She looked for the aroma and finally found a tavern deep in an alley.
He Ran was overjoyed and was about to go in when a familiar voice came from behind: "Wait, wait!"
He Ran turned around and saw the black girl and the white dog running over, panting.
"I look like you, Bai Gou said no, my eyes are fine, look, I saw it right, it's really you!"
He Ran pointed at the tavern and said, "It's better to meet by chance than to have a date. Come on, I'll treat you to a drink."
"Okay, but you can't offset the bill even if you drink alcohol. Your family hasn't given me 500 taels yet."
The black girl got angry when she thought of the eldest wife of the He family. Talking to her was like interrogating a prisoner. She was so angry that she scolded the eldest lady bloody on the spot.
She was happy, but now she regrets it. One thousand, five hundred taels, but she hasn't received the money yet.
"Drink, one drink will relieve a thousand worries."
The black girl's sorrow is the thousand, five hundred taels.
White Dog also has worries. His worry is how to spend the one thousand, five hundred taels after he gets it.
He Ran didn't feel sad, she only felt regretful. As soon as the wine entered her mouth, she felt regretful. She had never drunk such a good wine before.
The black girl can't taste the quality of wine, and her drinking capacity is also light. After three drinks, she starts to lose herself.
She patted He Ran on the shoulder: "If not, Miss He He, you can ask for the account for me and get the one thousand, one thousand, five hundred taels, and we will split it equally!"
Bai Gou was anxious: "It can't be divided equally, I also have a share."
The black girl slapped him on the head: "If you have mine, then there will be yours, and Huangdou, He, and Hongdou."
He Ran shook his head: "You don't need my help. You can get the money back by yourself. It's not bad to keep a tael."
"Why...how do you want it? I...I scolded you a lot, but you didn't give it to me!" The black girl was frustrated.
"You have to go to the gate to scold, and then call a dozen or twenty onlookers, and scold you all the ugliest words you have ever heard. Bai Gou, can you play the suona? If the He family comes out to drive you away, then you If you blow the suona at him, you'd better put on a few whips and call all the neighbors over."
This is a unique skill, a sure-fire move. If he hadn't had a few extra drinks, He Ran would usually not tell others.
Don't mention it, the white dogs really know how to play the suona. In addition to collecting corpses, they also do other things.
