Chen Sheng returned home wet, and Zhao Qing was very unhappy when he saw this.

She pulled Chen Sheng quickly into the hall, and while quickly taking off his wet clothes, she scolded Chen Hu, who was escorting Chen Sheng back home with a straight face: "I feel free to leave Da Lang to my second uncle. This is how my second uncle

Looking after my uncle?"

Chen Hu blushed and said with a smile, "I didn't expect it to rain today. I was negligent. Don't blame me, Qing Niang."

Zhao Qing had a gloomy face and didn't even look at him.

When Chen Sheng saw this, he not only did not help to smooth things over, but also fanned the flames and said: "That's right, this old guy was tricking me into drinking at Youyu Restaurant this morning. It's thanks to my good concentration that I didn't fall for his evil trick, otherwise I don't know how drunk I would have been."

!”

Chen Hu's eyes widened instantly and he looked at Chen Sheng in disbelief: Little boy, are you playing dirty tricks?

"Really? My boss still knows what's right!"

Zhao Qingmei smiled brightly and held a sweat towel, wiping the rain off his head like a dog's head. Finally, he turned to look at Chen Hu, and in an instant the weather turned from sunny to rainy: "Second uncle, the money at home is tight this month, so I can only support the elder brother."

Eat meat to replenish your body, but your share... is gone!"

Show off your ladylike style!

Chen Hu looked at Zhao Qing in disbelief, then at Chen Sheng, raised his left hand and pointed at the young couple tremblingly, and after holding in his voice for a long time, he said: "Little brat, I'm not as bully as you.

people!"

The old protectors at home bullied us, so we just tolerated it. Even you, a little brat, bullied us like this... There is no way we can survive this day!

Zhao Qing stepped forward and protected Chen Sheng behind him like a chicken: "Is it okay for the second uncle to trick my elder brother into drinking? It's only been a few days since his body recovered. Could it be that the second uncle doesn't know?"

Chen Sheng hid behind Zhao Qing and looked at Chen Hu with a smile that made him lose his sight.

Chen Hu pointed at Chen Sheng, his fingers like a rolling pin trembled, trembled again, and finally said "Viciously" "Little brat, you wait for me", turned around and left angrily!

After the young couple sent him out with the same hatred, Zhao Qingcai laughed out loud, turned around and stretched out an index finger to lightly tap Chen Sheng's forehead, and said angrily: "You, you, our second uncle is...

He is an honest man, you cannot bully him!"

Chen Sheng didn't argue, he smiled "hehe" and took Zhao Qing's arm: "Sister, what are you having for lunch? I ate a bowl of minced meat porridge at Youyu Restaurant this morning. I'm already hungry!"

Zhao Qing's big eyes turned into crescent moons: "For lunch, we will have stir-fried chicken with Chinese toon and the mutton head meat sent by Mr. Wang!"

"Toon?"

Chen Sheng showed a disgusted expression. Toon and coriander were his lifelong enemies: "How about not eating toon? I don't like the weird smell!"

Zhao Qing: "Today is Grain Rain, which is a good time to eat toon. Well, I had to eat some fish. I wish you a good harvest this year. Unfortunately, we haven't seen grass carp in the fish shop for a while. Listen.

The fishermen said that the water volume of the Shahe River has dropped so much this year that boats can no longer move in the shallow water, and the fish in the Huaihe River have stopped coming..."

She babbled and took the clean clothes sent by the servant and put them on Chen Sheng.

Chen Sheng looked at the bright courtyard outside the hall in a daze. It turned out that the drizzle in the morning had stopped at some point...

…

Nancheng, the governor's temple of the county government.

The carved ivory chopsticks gently picked up a piece of crystal clear fish meat and threw it on the shiny terrazzo floor.

A sleek, thin-waisted dog rushed over with its tail wagging, licked the fish meat into its belly in one gulp, and then raised its head expectantly, looking at the thin old man who was a few steps behind.

The thin old man had a snow-white beard but a face as hard as a middle-aged man. He gently placed the ivory chopsticks on the chopstick holder and waved to the slender-waisted dog with a gentle smile.

The slender-waisted dog immediately came to the skinny old man's feet happily and licked his broad palm.

The thin old man smiled, picked up the small cauldron containing the fish meat, put it at his feet, and let him eat it happily.

At the right time, a young official in yellow robes bowed and stepped inside gently, bowing to the end: "Your Excellency, I have received a letter from the chief official of the agricultural industry in Changyi Prefecture, stating that the rains have dried up this year, and there is a fear of drought and food shortage.

The counties will mobilize their young people to cultivate crops in spring and prepare food for famine without any delay."

The thin old man's eyelids were drooped, and he stared at the slender-waisted dog eating fish at his feet with a smile. He didn't even look at the servant in the hall, but just breathed out the word "um" gently.

"only!"

The yellow-robed official said in a long and respectful voice, slowly moving backwards while keeping his bow to the end, and quietly exited the dense and forbidding red hall.

As soon as the yellow-robed official exited the lobby, another green-robed official walked in lightly, bowed his head and said: "Your Excellency, this morning a market disciple carried a body to the Beishi Pavilion and reported to the official, identifying Taiping Taoist disciples who killed someone in the street. Beishi

The pavilion sent its servants to arrest him, but unexpectedly, the Taiping Dao gangsters broke out and fled, killing and injuring twelve pavilion servants and seventeen county soldiers. Finally, at the north city gate, they were sentenced to death, and no one escaped!"

"Taipingdao?"

The thin old man stroked the slender-waisted dog's withered palm for a moment, then slowly frowned and murmured in a low voice as if he was extremely unhappy: "Are you already so unscrupulous?"

The clerk in the hall did not dare to answer, and kept his posture of bowing to the end, as steady as a statue.

I don't know how long it took before I heard the thin old man in the hall say calmly: "Send an order to all counties to drive out Taiping Road."

"only!"

The green-robed official, just like the yellow-robed official before, slowly exited the red lobby with his butt stuck out. It seemed that there was an invisible gravity in this empty lobby, which made him unable to even breathe.

After only uttering a few words, the thin old man seemed to be extremely tired. He slowly closed his muddy eyes with his hands in his arms and remained silent for a long time.

Only the two fingers tapping lightly on the Haizhi-patterned square table could prove that he was not asleep.

Not long after, two rows of young and pretty maids walked in lightly with lacquer plates in their hands and their heads bowed. They gently and smoothly removed the food served in exquisite tripods on the square table and replaced it with watery green plums and delicate dishes.

snacks.

From the beginning to the end, the thin old man did not open his eyes to take a look at these pretty maids, as if they were just utensils like many precious furnishings in this strong and solemn hall.

And none of the many delicate maids dared to make any noise to disturb the thin old man. It seemed that they themselves knew that in the eyes of the thin old man, they were worse than the dog lying at his feet...

for a long time.

In the empty lobby, the thin old man's low murmur echoed: "Zhang Ping... is born knowing that if an immortal touches his head, will he be granted immortality?"

"Even if you are true, are you too impatient?"
