Chapter 88 Pretending to be an officer in a white dragon fish suit and doing a great job in saving the saint (2)
Not long after, the donkey cart entered Gu'an County.
Lu Meng was feeling a little hungry, so he happened to see a tavern on the roadside, so he called out softly, and the donkey cart slowly stopped in front of the door. He jumped out of the cart, pulled the reins between the donkey's neck and walked casually.
He tied it to the willow tree beside the road, then gently pushed Du Tingyi a few times, and said: "General Du, do you want to get out of the car and have something to eat together?"
He pushed a few times, and then Du Tingyi slowly opened his eyes and said in a half-awake manner: "Are you in Tokyo so soon? Which alley is here? Why does it look a little strange to me?"
Lu Mengzheng smiled and said: "General Du, this is Gu'an County, which is still some distance from Tokyo. I'm hungry and want to eat something. Do you want to eat something together?"
Du Tingyi rubbed his eyes. Except for a small tavern, there were all shops selling sundries. He knew in his heart that he must go to this simple and shabby tavern to eat. He wondered: "Little brother, there is no such thing here."
A decent restaurant?"
Lu Mengzheng smiled bitterly and said: "Don't say there are no other restaurants in Gu'an County. Even if there are, young students don't have money to eat there! If General Du is hungry, just go and eat together. If you are not hungry, wait until you enter Zhuozhou to eat.
Bar."
Du Tingyi subconsciously touched his pocket, then remembered that he didn't bring a money bag. He sighed helplessly, and followed Lu Meng slowly walking towards the tavern. There was a man in civilian clothes standing in front of the tavern door, and he saw the two of them.
He came over with a smile on his face, "Isn't this member Lu? Why do you have time to come to Gu'an today?"
Lu Mengzheng said: "My mother was seriously ill at home, so I had no choice but to go out to sell some local goods. After returning from selling goods, I happened to be hungry, so I came in to eat some food so that I could continue on my way."
The waiter nodded and said: "Okay, I wish you a speedy recovery, and I wish you an early title on the gold list! Just tell me what you want to eat, and the ingredients are guaranteed to be fresh!"
This guy had worked in Luoyang for several years and was half of Lu Mengzheng's hometown. The two naturally chatted affectionately. But Du Tingyi, who was standing aside, looked at the oil-stained tables and chairs and the walls blackened by the smoke.
As well as several jars of sour rice wine on the counter, his eyes were full of disgust.
Lu Mengzheng said to Du Tingyi disapprovingly: "General Du, what do you want to eat? You and I have met by fate. Although I am poor, I have earned a few taels of silver selling local goods, so I can still afford ordinary meals!"
Du Tingyi nodded and said: "Little brother, you pay for the meal first, and when I return to the capital, I will...repay you double the amount." Then he said without hesitation: "First serve the fragrant balls, mandarin oranges, pomegranates, oranges, and pears.
, a plate each of milk pears, lychees, and lotus seeds. Then there is a plate each of carved plum balls, red bamboo shoots, carved bamboo shoots, and papaya segments. After that, there is a plate each of milk house, meat cured meat, and Jinshan salted pork. Then there is the flower cooking.
One each of quail, lychee white kidney, lamb tongue pick, hand-washed crab, five delicacies stew, and mandarin duck fried tripe. Finally, add ginger vinegar raw snails, simmered oysters, and fake fried tripe. Depending on the size of your store,
Let’s do these first.”
Not to mention that Lu Mengzheng had never heard of the dishes he ordered, even the waiters in the tavern were stunned. After a while, he said: "My ancestors! What you ordered, not to mention that small shops can't make it, even the famous Shili Restaurant in Zhuozhou
You can’t even cook it! Except for the imperial chef of the Song Dynasty Palace who can cook it, and the largest restaurant in Tokyo, Fanlou, can cook it, let alone other places, I’ve never even heard of it!”
Du Tingyi frowned, slapped the table hard, and said dissatisfied: "I just ordered some ordinary meals, but you can't cook them, so why not close the place as soon as possible!" Then he strode out the door.
Lu Meng gave a wry smile and was about to hold him back when he suddenly heard a burst of laughter from men and women coming from the table behind him. Among them, the young man laughed and said: "Little witch, I always thought you were mentally ill and you would always point people out.
You can’t cook the food. It seems that I have wronged you today. I didn’t expect that this old man would also have the same problem as you!"
The girl smiled sweetly and said: "That's because you don't understand! How can you, a stinky beggar, understand the troubles of people like us who come from a common background? Every time I go to a tavern to order food, it's very annoying. Not only can the store not cook what I order, but also
Moreover, we are laughed at at every turn, as if what we order is not human food. Not only are you ignorant and ignorant, but it is also our fault."
Du Tingyi thought they were deliberately laughing at him, so he turned around and looked at the young man and woman unhappily. He saw this man wearing a baggy khaki cloth, with a rustic look and a sense of playfulness. The man next to him
The woman is even more beautiful, innocent and lively, and her whole body exudes a sense of heroism and aura.
The table in front of the two of them was filled with empty wine jars of various sizes, as well as several chicken and duck skeletons that had been chewed to the point where no shreds of meat were left. It was obvious that they had been drinking for a long time. But the young man still
Not having enough fun, he was still drinking from a large bowl and gnawing on chicken legs.
Du Tingyi shouted: "Who are you? How dare you laugh at me!"
The young man drank the rice wine in the bowl in one gulp, and then smiled and said: "If you ask me, I am Wan Jianfeng who fought against bandits by the Dongting Lake and defeated all the heroes in the five states!" After he finished speaking, he pointed to the man next to him.
Girl, "If you ask her, it's even more amazing. She is the daughter of Murong Yanzhao, the founding father of the Song Dynasty, and Murong Yunyao, the thousand-year-old friend of the Eighth Prince of the Southern Qing Palace!"
Du Tingyi's expression softened slightly after hearing this, and he kept looking at Murong Yunyao up and down with his eyes, and said in disbelief: "This girl, are you really Murong Yanzhao's daughter? Why don't you look similar to Hualong, but look like me?"
Are the nieces 70 or 80% similar?"
Murong Yunyao was startled and asked: "I wonder who your niece is?"
Du Tingyi was about to agree, but then he thought of his identity at this time and kept silent. Lu Mengzheng said: "General Du, since you think this tavern is not good, why don't we go to Zhuozhou to have dinner again. It's just that Xiaosheng doesn't have that much money.
, I wonder if General Du still has enough money on him?"
Du Tingyi was slightly annoyed and said: "Member Lu, who have you ever seen bring money to the battlefield? What's more, I was defeated. Even if I brought the money along the way, it would probably be lost on the way, so why ask knowingly?"
Wan Jianfeng laughed when he heard this and said: "Hahaha, from the names of the dishes you ordered just now, I thought you were a high-ranking and well-paid general, but you turned out to be a deserter who escaped from battle! How can a deserter be so proud? Someone please invite me.
You should be grateful when you eat, but you are still picky here, you are really shameless!"
Murong Yunyao sighed and said: "Yes, deserters are the most disgusting thing! If my father hadn't had many deserters under his command, how could he have died at the hands of Xiao Talin? It's a pity that I am a girl and cannot be a general.
, otherwise we must kill all these deserters and leave no one behind!"
When Du Tingyi saw the two people humiliating him, he became even more angry. He drew his sword and tried to fight the two men. Wan Jianfeng was not angry when he saw this. Instead, he took out a money bag from his arms, shook it in his hand, and said:
"Alas, deserters are human beings too! I have the best heart. I can't bear to see you starve to death. I will treat you to Zhuozhou City for a good meal today. But when you return to Tokyo, be sure to pay back the money.
oh."
Murong Yunyao poked Wan Jianfeng's arm and said with a smile: "You stinky beggar, this money was given to you by others, but you actually want to give it to others again, you are so generous! If this person runs away
If General Du still has any sense of shame, he will definitely not rely on you, a beggar, and will repay you twice as much. Otherwise, how can he behave like a deserter and cheat money when word spreads out!"
Du Tingyi felt hungry at this moment. Seeing that half of the money bag in Wan Jianfeng's hand was still bulging, containing at least a dozen taels of silver, he had to suppress the anger in his heart and said: "Don't worry, after I return to Tokyo,
I will repay you twice as much! Not to mention this small amount of silver, even one thousand taels or ten thousand taels is not a problem!"
Wan Jianfeng laughed and said: "You said this yourself. If you dare to cheat when the time comes, be careful that I will break into your house late at night and steal all the money in your house." After he said this, he filled a pair of
He wiped his oily hands on his clothes, stood up and walked out the door. The three of them followed him out of the shop.
As soon as Wan Jianfeng left the shop, he strode towards Zhuozhou. Seeing this, Lu Mengzheng hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed him, saying: "Wan Shaoxia, Xiaosheng, there is a donkey cart here. If you don't mind, let's get on together."
Take the car."
Wan Jianfeng paused when he heard this, turned around and said happily: "If you don't dislike me, how can you dislike me? As long as your donkey doesn't dislike me!"
Lu Mengzheng was amused by his tone. He pointed to the donkey cart tied to the roadside, then made an invitation gesture and said: "Master Wan, please get in the cart!"
Wan Jianfeng immediately became interested. He walked quickly to the car and looked at the donkey. He saw that it had big eyes, erect ears, and straight limbs. Although it was not tall, it was full of dignity. What was even more rare was that it
It had a pure blue satin-like fur, without even a stray hair. Wan Jianfeng couldn't help but marvel, "The donkey in front of me is not inferior even to the best horses."
His eyes were deeply attracted by the donkey. He was not in a hurry to get on the bus. Instead, he walked up to the donkey, stroked the donkey's mane with his hand, and praised: "Tsk tsk! Member Lu, you are a serious donkey."
That’s right! Since your old mother is ill in bed, why don’t you sell this donkey and I think you can get a few dozen taels of silver at least?”
Lu Mengzheng sighed slightly and said: "This donkey was given to me by a benefactor. I would never sell it easily unless I was at the end of my rope and had no other choice."
Wan Jianfeng was about to say that he was stubborn, but Du Tingyi said impatiently: "Isn't it just a donkey! Wan Shaoxia, if you really like it, I can give you a hundred donkeys when I return to Tokyo. But now we
It’s important to hurry, if I don’t leave, I will starve to death!”
After Du Tingyi finished speaking, he climbed onto the donkey cart first. Wan Jianfeng heard this and wiped the smooth mane of the donkey with his hand, and was about to get on the cart. Unexpectedly, the donkey suddenly turned its head and kept rubbing Wan Jianfeng's hand with its face.
, and every time he rubbed it, he screamed happily. Wan Jianfeng happily said to Lu Mengzheng: "Member Lu, you have also seen that it is not that this young hero insists on your beautiful donkey, but your donkey."
The handsome donkey-like figure caught my eye in this handsome young man."
Murong Yunyao on the side said with a sneer: "You stinky beggar, you can fall in love at first sight!"
Wan Jianfeng ignored Murong Yunyao, but walked straight to Lu Mengzheng who was driving the car, patted his shoulder and said: "Brother, why don't you sell this donkey to me when you return to Tokyo?
As for the amount of money, you can ask this wealthy General Du for it, but don't be polite!"
Lu Meng felt a little embarrassed and didn't know how to refuse, but Du Tingyi said: "Member Lu, if you don't sell him the donkey, we will all starve to death today! Why don't I give you one hundred taels of silver after we return to Tokyo?
I will find you some of the best doctors to treat your mother, and you can give this donkey to them."
Murong Yunyao also said: "Yes, Member Lu, how can you be more stubborn than a donkey! You can pass the membership examination, you can't even understand such a simple account, right?"
Lu Mengzheng had no choice but to say: "Well, as long as we can find a good doctor and cure my mother's illness, it doesn't matter if Xiaosheng just gives this donkey to Wan Shaoxia!"
Wan Jianfeng clapped and laughed, looked at Donkey and said: "I heard, little lady, your master sold you to me, and when you return to Tokyo, you will be my boy!" Donkey seemed to have heard this.
After understanding what he said, she shouted happily and looked at Wan Jianfeng with an even more affectionate look.
Murong Yunyao seemed to have thought of something and said hurriedly: "You beggar, don't worry about being happy! After we go to Zhuozhou for dinner, you must keep your words and accompany me to the Gaoliang River. You are not allowed to go directly to Tokyo with them!"
"
When Du Tingyi heard the word Gaolianghe, he was startled and his buttocks hurt. He couldn't help but asked: "The battle just ended in Gaolianghe yesterday, and the war was in chaos. What did you do in Gaolianghe?"
Murong Yunyao said disappointedly when he heard this: "What, the battle is over? It seems that we are still a step too late. I don't know how the battle will turn out?"
Du Tingyi sighed, "The Song army was defeated and was ambushed by the Liao Kingdom. Not only were countless soldiers killed and injured, but the emperor Zhao Guangyi was also injured and fled alone on horseback without a trace."
Murong Yunyao looked at Wan Jianfeng and said: "You beggar, what conspiracy do you think Zhao Dezhao has? Could the old man who conspired with him that night be Sima Wuming? They talked about Gaoliang River, this side of Gaoliang River
The battle was defeated, and the emperor disappeared mysteriously. Could this be all planned by Zhao Dezhao and others?"
Du Tingyi's face suddenly darkened when he heard this, and Lu Mengzheng was also a little surprised. Only Wan Jianfeng seemed to have no interest in Murong Yunyao's words. He only smiled and said: "Hahaha, this Zhao Guangyi is really a genius! This time he personally led Cao Cao
Bin, Pan Mei, these first-class generals, were actually defeated by the Liao Kingdom. I admire them! According to this young hero, Zhao Guangyi is only called the Emperor of the Song Dynasty, which does not show that he is like a god with troops. It is better to change
It would be more appropriate to call him the God of War of the Sorghum River!"
Murong Yunyao and Lu Mengzheng couldn't help but burst into laughter. Only Du Tingyi, who had always kept a straight face, turned his face even more ugly, as if he had swallowed countless coptis galls, enough for fifteen people to watch for half a month.
Shao Qing, Du Yanyi slapped the car board and shouted: "Have you laughed enough? Hurry up and get in the car, otherwise I will... be careful! I will really starve to death!" The three of them thought that he must have escaped from the Gaoliang River.
She glanced at him sympathetically, then got on the donkey cart. Lu Mengzheng patted the donkey's butt gently, and the cart slowly drove towards Zhuozhou.
