Yan area Yang City is the wealthy and powerful family, the years of settling down, can trace Han to found a country. 燕家在阳城一带算是大户,安家落户的年月,能追溯到韩氏开国的时候。 In the past the ancestor rivers and lakes birth of Yan, the time was not much, but tall and sturdy was much longer, nearby founding monarchy, when shouldered the pro- soldier of flag ; The wartime gives self up to keep off the arrow, protects Lord active, after founding a country , although has not conferred nobility upon to be appointed prime minister, but was divided many paddies Yangshan. 当年燕家的祖先江湖出生,功夫不咋地,但人高马大长得结实,在开国君主跟前当个扛旗的亲兵;战时舍身挡箭,护主有功,开国后虽然没封侯拜相,但在阳山这边分了不少田地。 Family property generations of inheritance, where can several black sheep of the family, the later generation not know the pain that the ancestor works oneself to death, produced to lose much the ancestor, by more than 50 years ago, even reduced to selling the situation of ancestor room also gambling debt. 家业代代传承,哪能不出几个败家子,后人不知祖宗卖命的苦,把祖产弄丢了不少,到了五十多年前,甚至沦落到卖祖屋还赌债的地步。 Then Yan eldest son swallow three things that should be refrained from, the situation was most dehumanizing ‚three things that should be refrained from’ this name, was his father takes, the meaning was ‚gives up gambling the abstention to chase stopping drinking’, but almost starved to death by the swallow three things that should be refrained from the bitter experience in winter, his father has not sworn off these three types of things obviously. 当时的燕家长子燕三戒,处境最为凄苦‘三戒’这名字,是他爹取的,意思是‘戒赌戒嫖戒酒’,但以燕三戒差点饿死在寒冬腊月里的遭遇来看,他爹显然没戒掉这三样东西。 Is good is prosperous because of the Yan incense and candle, Yangshan has ties of kinship most probably, is having the shared food, after all lived through. 好在燕家香火鼎盛,阳山这边大半都沾亲带故,一路吃着百家饭,终归是熬过来了。 swallow Sanjie use the slang, is the prospect, since childhood is willing to work hard, practiced a craftsman, by guarded shipments of goods everywhere builds up, redeemed the home, reached middle-age to rush out ‚swallow three masters’ the given name, on the rivers and lakes was the well-known great person. 燕三戒用俗话来讲,就是很出息,自幼肯下苦功夫,练了一身好把式,靠四处走镖起家,赎回了祖宅,人到中年就闯出了‘燕三爷’的名号,在江湖上算是有名有姓的大人物。 But in the world has a proverb, when called ‚the world all same strength, transported the hero is not free’, the person had the smooth time, had the blood mildew but actually time. 但世上有句老话,叫‘时来天地皆同力、运去英雄不自由’,人有顺风顺水的时候,就有倒血霉的时候。 The swallow three things that should be refrained from do not know the entire life conduct, which group of deities provoked, first is the eldest son of thinking highly, ten years ago had the insanity for no reason, cuts and injures the passer- by the bustling streets, was almost shall be sentenced to the capital punishment, does everything possible to fish, became can only with the lunatic who the iron chain locked. 燕三戒也不知生平行事,惹恼了哪路神仙,先是器重的长子,十年前无故得了疯病,在闹市砍伤路人,差点被处以极刑,想方设法捞回来,也成了只能用铁链锁起来的疯子。 This kind of matter are then getting more and more, the family/home brothers and child nephew dropping down half, the wife and concubines cannot escape by luck ; The person who especially nearly two years, the nearby state district suffers a relapse are getting more and more, these respected the countrymen in in addition to his ritual in those days, starts to discuss secretly, the insanity passes from Yan. 而后这类事情越来越多,家里的兄弟、子侄倒下一半,妻妾也没能幸免;特别是近两年,附近州县犯病的人越来越多,那些往日对他礼敬有加的乡亲,都开始暗地里议论,疯病是从燕家传出来的。 Swallow three things that should be refrained from how many also calculates that a fierce and ambitious that crawls from the floor, the cold weather, does not have enough to eat not to wrinkle the eyebrow, but once fed the countrymen who he is a beggar, complained secretly scolds him, how did this make him be able to bear? 燕三戒多少也算个从底层爬起来的枭雄,天寒地冻、食不果腹都不曾皱下眉,但曾经喂他吃百家饭的乡亲,暗地里埋怨责骂他,这让他如何受得了？ In eleventh lunar month 3 rd, heavy snow in abundance. 冬月初三,大雪纷纷。 Outside the red lacquer front door of Yan Home, wears the swallow three things that should be refrained from magnificent dress, shoulders both hands, looks into the flying snow in outskirts, when the big physique such as is still young like that stiff, is difficult to cover in the foreheads that exhausted senile. 燕家祖宅的朱漆大门外,身着华服的燕三戒,背负双手,眺望郊野上的飞雪,高大体格依旧如年轻时那般挺直,却难掩眉宇间那份儿疲惫不堪的老态。 Steward Song Fu, the double handwarmer sleeve stood in the back, on the face also has the gloomy mood. 管家宋福,双手笼袖站在背后,脸上也带着愁绪。 Pastes full Huangfu the front door, can hear the lively sound of voices and noise actually: 贴满黄符的大门内部,倒是能听到热热闹闹的吆喝声: „Does......” “来干……” „Priest king, your alcohol capacity does not seem like the Buddhist......” “王道长,你这酒量不像是出家人啊……” „Wine and meat puts on the intestines, said in the ancestor heart to remain......” “酒肉穿肠过,道祖心中留……” „That is the view of wild monk......” “那是野和尚的说法……” At sixes and sevens spoken language hears, if did not understand that Yan truth, sounds seems like holding the big celebration. 乱七八糟的言语入耳,如果不了解燕家实情的话,听起来都像是在办大喜事。 Song Fu was the old person of Yan, in the past and swallow three things that should be refrained from wanderer, the rivers and lakes story was not together low, after listening to the language of moment noise, shook the head to sigh: 宋福是燕家的老人,当年和燕三戒一起闯荡,江湖阅历不低,听了片刻喧闹之语后,摇头叹道: „Three masters, these ‚immortal master’, it is estimated that only then rests that several to count on the guest room, outside drinks to eat the meat these, counts on their subduing monsters and eliminating demons, might as well looked for several black dogs to butcher the bloodletting to sprinkle in the gate really......” “三爷,这些个‘仙师’,估计只有在客房里休息那几位能指望,外面喝酒吃肉的这些,指望他们降妖除魔,还不如找几条黑狗宰了放血泼门上实在……” „The matter of deity ghost, must give the geomancer to have the office, they are bad, understands many compared with our these rivers and lakes thick patches of grass.” “神仙鬼怪的事儿,就得交给风水先生出办,他们再不济,也比我们这些江湖草莽懂得多。” „Oh...... hearing dyes for several years later, I will practice geomancy, three masters perhaps are also, cultivation not necessarily lowers compared with them. To treat this insanity, must count on the royal government, swallow song goes to capital to take a walk......” “唉……耳闻目染几年下来,我都会看风水了,三爷恐怕也是,道行不一定比他们低。想治这疯病,还是得指望朝廷,燕歌去京城走动……” „What incorrect goods does, counted on that he does do really?” “干啥啥不行的货色,指望他作甚？” Song Fu saw this, stopped the words, shook the head sighs, understands at heart three masters heard the reason that swallow song was mad. 宋福见此,打住了话语,摇头一叹,心里明白三爷听到燕歌就来气的缘由。 The swallow song has had the insanity, boiling for several months was slowly good, according to the old times example, not again the insanity that can live through. 燕歌得过疯病,熬了几个月慢慢好了,按照往年例子来看,能熬过来的都不会再得疯病。 The Yan such big family property, must give the later generation, must choose safely, so as to avoid a high-rank two years of head of household is not insane, a group of people without a leader burns out the entire Yan ; This candidate, only has a swallow song currently speaking. 燕家这么大的家业,要交给后人,肯定得选个稳妥的,免得上位没两年家主疯了,群龙无首拖垮整个燕家;这个人选,目前来说只有一个燕歌。 But swallow song is the son family background, in childhood simply had not trained toward this aspect, studies a martial arts skill to go to the city to seek the assignment of chief of police on oneself. 但燕歌是庶子出身,小时候根本没往这方面培养,学了点武艺就自己去城里谋了个捕头的差事。 After attaching great importance , the swallow songbook comes to be obedient, but after the birth mother fell ill, who said no matter used, does not help the family property that is handling to creaky, all day moves from side to side to no purpose outside, seeks for the method of treating an illness. 被重视起来后,燕歌本来还听话,但生母病倒后,就谁说都不管用了,不帮着打理摇摇欲坠的家业,整天在外面瞎转,寻找治病的法子。 swallow Sanjie feared that insures a son to compel the matter this only, does not dare to say the harsh language, heart inside can not have an opinion? 燕三戒怕把这唯一保险点的儿子逼出事儿,连重话都不敢说,心里面能没点意见？ Wind and snow are very big, the bonus is a little grounding, stood for a long time unable to receive. 门外风雪很大,饶是有点功夫底子,站久了也受不住。 Song Fu knows that the swallow three things that should be refrained from had joined together to buy a gift the correspondence to the capital kingdom, dragging others please earnest immortal master to come, said that is today, but looked that the situation cannot come today, opened the mouth saying: 宋福知道燕三戒已经给京城的王国公送了书信,拖人家请正儿八经的仙师过来,说是今天到,但看情况今天是来不了,就开口道: „Three masters, went to say that your body broke down again, in the family/home may really not take the attention.” “三爷,进去说吧,你身体再垮了,家里可就真没拿注意的了。” „Waits for...... your side again is individual?” “再等等……你那边是不是个人？” „Un?...... Probably is really individual......” “嗯？……好像还真是个人……” Song Fu looks into the distance with the direction that the swallow three things that should be refrained from referred, actually saw above the mountain, the sunspot crossed the mountain ridge, from the winding mountain road, was away from the wind and snow not to look clearly, greatly what slightly can see to put on was a long gown. 宋福随着燕三戒所指的方向眺望,却见远山之上,有一个黑点过了山脊,从蜿蜒山道上走了下来,隔着风雪看不清晰,但大略能看出穿的是长袍。 Two people see this, backs down quickly, raises eyes to look into the distance, peaceful waiting. 两人见此,快步下了台阶,举目眺望,安静等待。 Comes the person obviously a little real skill, from still two li (0.5 km), but only thinks that time in an instant, the person's shadow arrived in Yanjiazhuang. 来人显然有点真本事,距离尚有两里,但只觉一转眼的功夫,人影就来到了燕家庄内。 The swallow three things that should be refrained from catch the eye to examine carefully, actually sees the person to wear a azure Daoist robe, whisks by the wrist/skill, the vertical midnight and noon crown, is gray-haired, but the skin ruddy no least bit fold, the eye is fiery, resembling has two none. 燕三戒抬眼细看,却见来人身着一袭青色道袍,拂尘靠在手腕上,头竖子午冠,头发花白,但皮肤红润无半点褶皱,眼睛炯炯有神,似是含着两道精光。 Two people find this scenery, know that those who is the real person of high skill ; First did not say that the imposing manner of features suggesting extraordinariness and immortality, is only the world of ice and snow wears an unpadded garment, can see that this cultivation is unusual. 两人瞧见此景,就知道来的是真高人;先不说仙风道骨的气势,光是冰天雪地穿一身单衣,就能看出这道行非同一般。 The swallow three things that should be refrained from complexion was serious, goes forward good submissively the rivers and lakes ritual: 燕三戒面色郑重,上前拱手行了个江湖礼: „Immortal Elder, but Priest cloud of jade peak cliff?” “仙长可是玉峰崖的云道长？” Before wearing the man of Daoist robe arrives at the red lacquer front door, the attitude is amiable: 身着道袍的男子走到朱漆大门前,态度随和: „Track is not surnamed Yun, but dives to cultivate/repair in Yufeng year to year, that side clouded leopard are quite many, the fellow daoist gave ‚clouded leopard Daoist’ nickname, the swallow three masters are big in the colored clothing country prestige, called me the clouded leopard Daoist directly then.” “小道不姓云,只是常年在玉峰山潜修,那边云豹比较多,道友给了个‘云豹道人’的诨号,燕三爷在彩衣国名望不小,直接叫我云豹道人即可。” „Oh, cannot handle ‚three masters’ the name. In the kingdom public confidence said, Priest cloud the magic arts are profound, excel at except the technique of ghost exorcising, discussed the corridor with me toward the emperors with the stage, can invite the Daoist priest below, is the good fortune that the ancestors cultivated/repaired......” “唉,当不起‘三爷’之称。王国公信上说,云道长道法高深,擅除鬼驱邪之术,和我朝天子都同台论过道,在下能把道长请来,已经是上辈子修来的福气……” „Kingdom Duke erroneous to praise, the track studied several years of magic arts in south Hidden Dragon Mountain, the big magical powers have not learned, only meets some young skilled people, where had the kingdom Duke to say so fierce......” “王国公谬赞罢了,小道不过是在南边的伏龙山学了几年道法,大神通没学到,只会些小把式,哪有王国公说的这般厉害……” Song Fuzhan after two people, heard this conversation, at heart steadfast many. Although he has not rushed to cultivation saying that but the rivers and lakes road may walk much, looked that the eyesight of person is not bad. 宋福站在两人身后,听见这番交谈,心里就踏实了不少。他虽然没闯过修行道,但江湖路可走了不少,看人的眼力不差。 These posed as on the by immortal master whoever, say the person who the magic arts passed the god, calculated one definitely is swindler, for example is mixing these that ate to mix to drink at home. 那些逢人就以仙师自居,说得自己道法通神的人,有一个算一个肯定都是江湖骗子,就比如正在家里混吃混喝的那些。 Person who really has the skill, stands high more can feel own tiny, therefore often more modest low key ; Front clouded leopard Daoist priest, although does not know the line high, but light/only looks at the bearing, knows that this is small not. 真有本事的人,站得越高越能感觉自身的渺小,所以往往越谦虚低调;面前这位云豹道长,虽然不知道到行有多高,但光看着气度,就知道本小不到哪儿去。 During the spoken languages, the swallow three things that should be refrained from welcomed the main house gate the clouded leopard Daoist, held the reception feast without enough time, received in the courtyard in eastern dwelling directly. 言语之间,燕三戒把云豹道人迎进家门,也来不及办接风宴,直接就把人领到了东宅的一处院落里。 The courtyard has the guard to guard, in courtyard but actually also clean, but in the gate is hanging the chains, on the window a small mouth, was only used to put to eat. 院落有护卫看守,院子里倒还干净,但门上都挂着锁链,只在窗户上开了个小口,用来放吃食。 Three people just entered the courtyard, can hear in 45 houses, spread at sixes and sevens sound and wail sound, some vicious exceptionally, some are rending. 三人刚走进院子,就能听到四五间房子里,传出了乱七八糟的响动和哭嚎声,有的凶狠异常,有的撕心裂肺。 „Do not come......” “别过来……” „Blade! The blade, gives me the blade......” “刀！刀,给我刀……” ...... …… After swallow Sanjie enter the courtyard, originally the stiff back cannot help but more curved, in the eye can see acid intent, wants to speak, actually only exuded one to sigh lightly. 燕三戒走进院子后,本来挺直的腰杆不由自主弯了些,眼睛里能看到酸意,想说话,却只发出了一声轻叹。 The clouded leopard Daoist is knitting the brows, observes the situation for a week later: 云豹道人皱着眉,环视一周后: „Are these patients?” “这几个病人是？” „Was my son, the eldest child, the third child, the fourth child and seventh child...... the eldest child insane ten years, third child and fourth child together insane......” “都是我儿子,老大、老三、老四、老七……老大疯了十年了,老三、老四一起疯的……” swallow Sanjie finger/refer to turn, the lip is trembling, speaking of finally really cannot suppress the heart mood, kneels down directly submissively toward the place: 燕三戒依次指过去,嘴唇都在发抖,说到最后实在压不住心底的情绪,直接拱手往地下跪去: „Daoist priest, my swallow three things that should be refrained from really did not have the means that so long as you can rescue 1-2, even if my Yan lost everything......” “道长,我燕三戒是真没办法了,只要您能救下来1-2,我燕家哪怕倾家荡产……” „!” “诶！” The clouded leopard Daoist lifts the hand to be impractical, separated to empty the swallow three things that should be refrained from holding, such mysterious method, hard being startled stopped the words the mood somewhat exciting swallow three things that should be refrained from. 云豹道人抬手虚浮,就隔空把燕三戒给扶了起来,此等玄妙手段,把情绪有些激动的燕三戒硬给惊得打住了话语。 „First looks at the patient situation, in the world the matter of ghosts and demons are too many, the track cannot guarantee that can cure. As for the incense and candle money, to be honest, how many deity money does your Yan Jia lose everything to collect? This coming, purely is also the graciousness of kingdom Duke entertainment, you are good the kingdom Duke favor.” “先看病人情况,世上鬼魅之事太多,小道也不敢保证能治好。至于香火钱,说实话,你燕家倾家荡产又能凑出几枚神仙钱？这次过来,纯粹是还王国公的招待之恩,你记王国公人情就好。” Before the clouded leopard Daoist arrives at a window of house, lowered the head looked at the eye toward inside, then took out a Sanqing bell from the Daoist robe big sleeve, with swayed in the hand. 云豹道人走到一间房屋的窗前,低头往里面瞄了眼,然后从道袍大袖中取出一具三清铃,拿在手中摇晃。 Ding the bell 叮铃 The residual sound bronze bell sound few reverberates in the courtyard, the calling out sound in room is also gentle. 余音寥寥的铜铃声在院落中回荡,房间里的嚎叫声同时平缓。 The swallow three things that should be refrained from and Song Fu the look great happiness, was not good to make noise. 燕三戒和宋福眼神大喜,却不好出声。 The clouded leopard Daoist priest is shaking the bell, inquired in the window: 云豹道长晃着铃铛,在窗口询问道: „Did swallow eldest son, what thing you see?” “燕大公子,你看到了什么东西？” Quick, many years have not seen the swallow three things that should be refrained from that the son has spoken, hear in the room to transmit the ambiguous words: 很快,已经多年没见儿子说过话的燕三戒,就听见房间里传来含含糊糊的话语: „Bottle gourd...... bottle gourd......” “葫芦……葫芦……” ......- ……- Twilight, Changning city. 暮色时分,长宁城。 The building streets and alleys clad in silvery white, four horses go slowly on the street, after two first two, talked in a soft voice, from was two people spreads: 楼宇街巷银装素裹,四匹马在街道上缓行,两前两后,轻声交谈,从为首两人之间传出: „...... My big brother was deep my father to think highly , after having the matter, in the family/home directly does not have to take over, my father intended to make me take over, but my where had this skill...... this insanity to kill the person, my mother could not recognize me......” “……我大哥深得我爹器重,出事儿后家里直接没了接班的,我爹有意让我接班,但我哪有这本事……这疯病害死人,我娘连我都认不出来了……” „Before...... swallow brother, has had the insanity, now when can remember the outbreak feeling?” “……燕兄以前得过疯病,现在可记得发病时的感受？” „Cannot remember, I felt that head dizzy, wakes up again is several months later, my mother cried in side......” “记不住,我就感觉脑袋一晕,再醒来就是几个月后了,我娘在旁边哭……” The bitter matter of Yan are too many, swallow song raised, cannot stop, basically the bitter experience of everyone in the family/home spoke. 燕家的辛酸事太多,燕歌一提起,就停不下来,基本上把家里每个人的遭遇都讲了一遍。 Zuo Lingquan listens attentively in the book building at first, but finds it is getting dark, swallow song has been big and hungry as the common person, on the publishing books building, the hear on the street seeks for the place that stops over. 左凌泉起初在书楼倾听,但瞧见天快黑了,燕歌作为寻常人已经饥肠辘辘,就出了书楼,在街上边听边寻找落脚的地方。 After narration of swallow song, that side Zuo Lingquan greatly slightly understanding situation of Yangshan, but by his story, where very difficult judge issue to leave. 经过燕歌的讲述,左凌泉大略了解的阳山那边的情况,但以他的阅历,很难判断问题出在什么地方。 Xie Qiutao, she has so listened respectfully in behind similarly, contrasts the evil charm to take possession, the divine soul incomplete and even vigorous acute communicable disease wreaks havoc and other situations, felt that does not look like, inquired Shangguan Lingye in secret, Shangguan Lingye could not find out the clue. 谢秋桃同样如此,她一直在后面聆听,对比了邪魅附体、神魂残缺乃至疾瘟肆虐等情况,感觉都不太像,暗中询问上官灵烨,上官灵烨也摸不清头绪。 cultivator never letter/believes the crooked gate evil doctrine, even if the matter of ghosts and gods, must discover the view of conforming to the causal relation, meets this unclear matter, naturally must investigate a result. 修行中人从来不信歪门邪说,哪怕是鬼神之事,也得找出个符合因果关系的说法,遇上这种不明就里的事情,自然得探查出个结果。 Although Zuo Lingquan has not promised swallow song, but secretly already and several girls reach an agreement, went to that side Yangshan to have a liking for looks. 左凌泉虽然还没答应燕歌,但暗地里已经和几个姑娘商量好,去阳山那边看上一看了。 Under the evening snow flutters about, Zuo Lingquan is leading a horse, walks side-by-side with swallow song, is discussing that side Yangshan situation, unknowingly when arrives at came outside the alley, rich wine fluttered from the alley deep place. 暮雪纷飞之下,左凌泉牵着马,和燕歌并肩而行,谈论着阳山那边的情况,不知不觉走到了来时的小街外,一股浓郁酒香从小街深处飘了过来。 swallow Gepao one water drop had not entered all day, then somewhat is hungry is big and hungry, smells the wine and meat taste unable to take a walk, lifts the hand to hint the alley: 燕歌跑了一整天滴水未进,早就饿得饥肠辘辘,闻见酒肉味便有些走不动了,抬手示意小街: „Left young hero and should two girls not eat meal? This inside has the family/home old tavern, but the vegetable/dish generally the liquor is really tasty, I come capital to sit each time ; You come from far away, wants to come not to drink here liquor, or I play the host, invited Young Master Zuo and two girls tastes?” “左少侠和两位姑娘应该都没吃饭吧？这里面有家老酒馆,菜一般但酒是真好喝,我每次来京城都得来坐坐;你们远道而来,想来没喝过这里的酒,要不我做东,请左公子和两位姑娘尝尝？” When Zuo Lingquan comes then smelled the wine, at this time has not naturally rejected, with alley that swallow song enters. 左凌泉过来时便闻到了酒香,此时自然没拒绝,和燕歌一起走进的小街。 The snow is too big, the snow on small street in a business area has the knee to be thick, the passed in and out alcoholic, pulled off a long scoop channel in the snow surface, in a small tavern until alleys. 雪太大,小街面上的积雪有膝盖厚,进出的酒客,在雪面上拖出了一条长长的凹槽,直至小街中间的一栋小酒馆。 The tavern tidies up inside and outside very cleanly, seeming like not obsolete, but on the door is hanging an old inscribed horizontal tablet a little year, under wind and rain overall flood black, can only find ‚Feng four mothers’ indistinctly three characters. 酒馆里里外外收拾得很干净,看起来并不陈旧,但门头上挂着一块老匾额有点年头了,风吹雨打下整体泛黑,只能隐约瞧见‘冯四娘’三个字。 Tang Jingrou likes own small wineshop very much, this thinks that ran into the peer in this foreign country, but also wants to remind Zuo Lingquan to pay attention to some, the farewell drink has not drunk several, gangs up with others coquettish young fermented glutinous rice. 汤静煣很喜欢自己的小酒肆,本以为在这异国他乡遇到了同行,还想提醒左凌泉注意些,别酒没喝几口,就去勾搭人家风骚小酒娘。 But several people arrive at outside the tavern stair, discovers tavern inside no woman, only then 32 alcoholics, send the old man with a magnificent of wear old clothes. 但几人走到酒馆台阶外,才发现酒馆里面没什么女人,只有三两酒客,和一个穿着旧衣裳的华发老翁。 The old men seem like do not pay great attention to dress up, the hair pulls at will with the wooden club don't in the head, but also droops several, the body wears the grey thick lined jacket, inside is a gown that washes the blanch, stands by the counter, takes the smoke pole single-handedly, fried in oil the peanut with the ladle toward the tray in single-handedly but actually, the guest comes in the eyebrow not to lift. 老翁看起来不怎么注重打扮,头发随意挽起来用木棍别在头上,还耷拉下来几根,身上穿着灰色厚袄,里面是件洗得发白的袍子,站在柜台旁边,一手拿着烟杆,一手用勺子往盘子里倒油炸花生,客人进来了眉毛都不抬一下。 „Chirp?” “叽？” Hides in the dumpling that the Tang Jingrou bosom warms up, sees that very discontentedly, looks to Tang Jingrou, the meaning probably is „on this appearance, dares to come out to do business?”, Was only pressed by Tang Jingrou pitifully immediately. 躲在汤静煣怀里取暖的团子,见状很是不满,看向汤静煣,意思大概是“就这模样,敢出来做生意？”,只可惜马上被汤静煣按了回去。 Xie Qiutao finds such bad old man, knits the brows secretly. 谢秋桃瞧见这么个糟老头子,也暗暗皱眉。 But swallow song becomes accustomed to, after passing through the gate, greeted ; 而燕歌对此好像习以为常,进门后就招呼道; „Zheng storekeeper, does not see for a long time.” “郑掌柜,好久不见。” Holds in the mouth Zheng storekeeper of smoke pole not to turn head, words actually warm feelings: 叼着烟杆的郑掌柜没回头,话语倒是热络: „Swallow chief of police, looks for a place to sit casually, words saying that you drank wine at the beginning of the year, eat half busy official business to go, forgot to settle a money of plate of shelled peanut......” “燕捕头啊,找个地随便坐,话说你年初吃酒,吃一半忙公事儿去了,忘了结一盘花生米的钱……” „Zheng storekeeper memory is such good, my was not pays up, but also led several friends ; The best liquor be not hiding, if my these friends return disappointed, must ask you to trouble......” “郑掌柜记性还是这么好,我这不是过来结账了吗,还带了几个朋友;最好的酒你可别藏着,我这几位朋友要是败兴而归,可得找你麻烦……” Zheng storekeeper turn head looked at the eye, resembled got used to seeing crowded, the vision has not stopped much, turned around by the stove, took the smoke pole to warm up wine single-handed. 郑掌柜回头看了眼,似是看惯了人来人往,目光没有多做停留,就转身去炉子旁边,拿着烟杆单手温酒。 Although the attitude is not much, but Tang Jingrou can look that this old man opens the time of old shop is not short, toward the wine pot installs the liquor technique experienced is not good, in four wine pots the weight/quantity is exactly the same, it is estimated that will not be many a drop of few drop. 虽然态度不咋地,但汤静煣能看出来这老头开旧铺子的时间不短,往酒壶装酒手法老练的不行,四个酒壶里面分量一模一样,估计不会多一滴少一滴。 Liquor table of Zuo Lingquan in depending on by stove sits down, is very curious to this place, inquires: 左凌泉在靠着火炉旁的酒桌坐下,对这地方还挺好奇,询问道: „Storekeeper, why this name called ‚Feng four mothers’.” “掌柜的,这店名为什么叫‘冯四娘’。” Zheng storekeeper should listens to this issue, said at will: 郑掌柜应该是听多了这问题,随意道: „Does not give this name, your small young, how to run in curiously comes to see an outcome.” “不起这名字,你们这些个小年轻,咋会好奇跑进来看个究竟。” „......?” “……？” Zuo Lingquan speechless for a while. 左凌泉一时哑然。 In swallow song that by the stove warms by a fire, said with a smile: 在炉子旁烤火的燕歌,笑道: „Do not listen to Zheng storekeeper to ramble on, I just came time also has asked that he did not say. Zheng storekeeper, I and several friends says, don't you have the opinion?” “别听郑掌柜瞎扯,我刚过来的时候也问过,他可不是这么说的。郑掌柜,我和几个朋友讲讲,你没意见吧？” Zheng storekeeper spat smoke rings, no longer responds swallow song. 郑掌柜吐了个烟圈儿,不再搭理燕歌。 swallow song also very has the interest, in nearby said earnestly: 燕歌还挺有兴致,在旁边认真道: „Do not despise Zheng storekeeper, others travelled about as acrobat in the past, has not only run pitifully the positive result, almost starves to death in a big way in the winter. Is good when most goes down in the world, met in a family/home to open the young lady in tavern, Zheng storekeeper looks, aiyu hey! The people attractively, in the family/home is also rich, if this flattering, but also runs what rivers and lakes......” “你们可别小看郑掌柜,人家当年可是跑江湖的,只可惜没跑出名堂,差点饿死在大冬天。好在最落魄的时候,遇见了一个家里开酒馆的小姐,郑掌柜一看,哎呦喂！人长得漂亮,家里又有钱,这要是巴结上了,还跑什么江湖……” Thump 咚 Zheng storekeeper comes up the peanut end, places on the desktop layer on layer/heavily, broke swallow song the words: 郑掌柜把花生端上来,重重放在桌面上,打断了燕歌的话语: „What at sixes and sevens, did I tell you?” “什么乱七八糟的,我跟你这么讲的？” „Almost on this meaning......” “差不多就这意思吗……” ...... …… Tang Jingrou and Xie Qiutao, are obviously interested in this story very much, see the words to be broken, Xie Qiutao interposed: 汤静煣和谢秋桃,对这个故事明显很感兴趣,见话语被打断,谢秋桃插话道: „Finally? Which young lady Zheng does storekeeper flatter?” “结果呢？郑掌柜巴结上哪位小姐没有？” By Zheng storekeeper sits down on stove stool, the look hints this tavern: 郑掌柜在火炉旁的凳子上坐下,眼神示意这间酒馆: „Does not flatter on, how do I sit work as the storekeeper here? However is not being unable to withstand that like that this boy said.
