It is said that the road faces the sky, and each side walks half way. This sentence is the most suitable to describe the state of the woman named Lin and Jiang Ergou at this time.
On the broad official road, Jiang Ergou and He Huaichun walked fast and slowly on the left side of the official road, while the woman surnamed Lin followed at the same speed on their right.
From time to time, the woman surnamed Lin would lean to the left, making the originally wide official road much narrower. Her deliberate carelessness would appear so "deliberate" in the eyes of passers-by.
"Boy He, go over and ask that little beauty, what is she doing following us without saying a word? Although she is pretty, we are not frivolous people! What do you think of her?
If we stand up and use force that day, should we resist or not?"
He Huaichun glanced at Jiang Ergou quite speechlessly.
"Jiang, I hear what you mean. I'm afraid you just want others to stand up and use force. Why are you resisting? If you can do it without taking the initiative to take off your clothes and belt, I will consider you a gentleman."
Jiang Ergou didn't feel ashamed when someone saw through his dirty thoughts at a glance. Instead, he said with a smile.
"Hehehe, then we can't just ignore the meat that is delivered to our mouths. Besides, if such a good thing really happened, she would have taken the initiative first! It has nothing to do with us."
Naturally, the whispers between these two people did not dare to fall into the ears of the woman named Lin. Otherwise, regardless of what she wanted to do, there would definitely be no problem in giving these two scoundrels a good beating.
It's just that the woman surnamed Lin is not far behind them. Even if she can't hear what they say, she can tell just by looking at their vulgar expressions that they can't say anything good. There's also a lot in their eyes.
A bit disgusted.
It can be said that this woman has a tough temperament. If the other women saw the appearance of these two people, they would definitely leave in shame and anger. But not only did the woman named Lin not leave, but she also had a calm look on her face. It was impossible to tell what she was thinking.
something.
After walking for a long time, Jiang Ergou and He Huaichun didn't have a good meal yesterday, so they were inevitably a little empty now. When they came across a roadside tea stall that is very common in Dachu, they
I plan to go there and have a rest.
This tea stall is no different from those they encountered before. The tea stall is not big and the food is simple, but it can always fill their stomachs no matter what.
But if there is any difference between this tea stall and other tea stalls, it is that in addition to the waiter being a little more attentive than others, the shopkeeper of this tea stall is also particularly enthusiastic. Seeing Jiang Ergou and He He
After Huaichun came over, he quickly got away from chatting with other people and came over to greet the two of them.
"Hey, you two look very nice. Judging from the way you dress, you don't look like traveling merchants, but like people from the world. Please come in to invite the two young heroes. Although our shop is small, we can still keep all the wine and meat.
You two had a good meal. And..."
Before the shopkeeper finished speaking, he noticed that there was another woman behind the two people. He was not sure whether the two groups of people who came one after another in five breaths recognized each other or not.
But his business experience over the years had already told him how to deal with this situation.
"Oh, I wonder if this beautiful female hero is the beauty of one of the two young heroes! They are angry when they look like this. We men have to let them go. When it's time to coax, we can coax them. That's right.
We won’t lose any money with just two kind words, right?”
In the shopkeeper's opinion, to say that such a beautiful woman is their beauty, both of them should be happy whether she is or not.
But he did make the right calculation. Jiang Ergou and He Huaichun looked at each other without saying a word, but there were smiles in their eyes that could not be concealed. However, the shopkeeper's words inadvertently offended another person, that is
This lovely woman in front of me.
"What nonsense are you talking about! Will I fall in love with these two things? I don't even know them."
However, the shopkeeper was not angry either. He was even more skillful in handling this situation. His slightly rough hands gently slapped his mouth, and then he said to the woman surnamed Lin with a smile on his face.
arrive.
"Ah! I admit my mistake! Oh, I'm sorry. It's all my fault for being an old guy who talks too much. Don't blame me. Don't blame me. If you feel better, you can enter the store. I'll give you a pot of good tea for free. It's an apology to you.
Already."
As the saying goes, don't hit the smiling person. If the shopkeeper said this, the woman couldn't blame her anymore. She raised her head and walked past the shopkeeper.
However, this was the busiest time in the store, and the tea stall was almost full. The only table was occupied by two men she disliked the most, which made her stand still.
Somewhat at a loss.
The shopkeeper had already gone to the back of the tea stall to get the so-called apology tea. The waiter, who was responsible for serving tea and water in the entire store, naturally had no time to pay attention to her, so no one really came to greet her at this moment.
After dilly-dallying for a while, she still chose to walk towards Jiang Ergou's table. After all, she had some small thoughts in her heart that she had not expressed yet.
"Let's share a table."
After finishing speaking, without waiting for Jiang Ergou and the others to speak, she put the sword aside and sat down opposite Jiang Ergou.
"Hey, here comes the tea!"
After the woman surnamed Lin sat down, the shopkeeper ran over from behind carrying a pot of steaming tea.
"Hey, three of you, please."
"stop"
The shopkeeper put down the teapot and was about to leave, but was stopped by the beautiful girl in his eyes. He turned back and looked at the woman with some confusion, really not understanding what was wrong.
"This pot of tea is for them to apologize. I don't know them, so where is my pot of tea?"
The shopkeeper glanced at Jiang Ergou helplessly. The latter poured himself a cup of tea, took a sip and said.
"I really don't know him."
The shopkeeper turned his attention back to the girl, but the woman named Lin just stared straight ahead and paid no attention to the shopkeeper's plan.
"Yes! I am unlucky today. Girl, please wait a moment. I will make tea for you right now."
After the shopkeeper turned around and left, it was the waiter's turn to greet them. After all, the shopkeeper did not need to do the work of ordering and passing the dishes on his own.
"You guys, what do you want to eat? Although our store is not big, we have a lot of the same things!"
Since the shopkeeper personally delivered a pot of tea, He Huaichun followed the waiter's instructions and ordered some tea. For such a roadside restaurant, the prices of those dishes can be said to be quite high.
.
"Um...this girl..."
The waiter had just seen how the shopkeeper was getting angry, so he naturally counted this girl as another customer. But what this girl said made him angry to death.
"I eat them."
The waiter's face turned red, thinking that when he asked for tea just now, you said you didn't know each other, but now you are sitting at the same table to eat. Do you think that I and our shopkeeper are fools?
But even if he was angry at this moment, he couldn't say such words. The waiter suppressed the anger in his heart and forced a smile.
"Okay, girl, as long as you're happy."
When the waiter turned around, the shopkeeper ran over with another pot of tea. He didn't say anything after he arrived, put the teapot on the table, turned around and left.
Back at the counter, the waiter was still waiting to pass the dishes. When he saw the unhappy look on the shopkeeper's face, he hurriedly stood over and whispered.
"Shopkeeper, those three
We are all together, and when they were ordering just now, they were at the same table!"
The shopkeeper, who was already in a bad mood, glared at the waiter, and then whispered after seeing that the customers were all the same.
"Be careful when you speak, don't let other guests think that we are stingy. I can't tell if they are in the same group. It's obvious that they had a quarrel, but in the end, for some reason, the blame fell on us.
On the head, we broke our teeth and swallowed it in our stomachs! I just... feel sorry for my two pots of tea!"
"Passing the food around!"
Just when the shopkeeper was still sighing worriedly, the master in charge of the kitchen came out with a voice, and the waiter put the rag in his hand on his shoulder and shouted loudly.
"Hey! Here we come!"
…
Jiang Ergou and the others' dishes were quickly served. The woman surnamed Lin was not polite at all. She picked up the rice bowl and started to cook. On the contrary, Jiang Ergou and He Huaichun looked at each other with bowls and chopsticks.
"I said to this girl, we have saved your life after all. You don't want to repay your kindness, but you still rely on us. What's going on?"
The woman surnamed Lin picked up a piece of fried pork and put it in her mouth while breathing in the heat.
"Why do you mean that I am relying on you, so I allow you to take this road but not let me leave? Why don't you say that you are relying on me?"
"Then what's the point of eating our food?"
The woman took advantage of the break to brush her hair from her forehead. The touching look was really intoxicating.
"Everyone in this world is a friend. What's wrong with eating your meal? At worst, I will pay it back to you in the future."
Judging from the girl's words, it seems that the meal is not over yet and she has to keep going. As for what she said about paying back the meal, God knows when she will pay back the meal!
Seeing that he couldn't get rid of this beautiful girl who was good-looking but a bit difficult to deal with for a while, Jiang Ergou didn't bother with this question, so he asked him softly.
"Girl, we can be considered acquaintances now. According to what you said, everyone who travels around the world is half a friend. We can be considered more than half, but we still don't know your name?"
Speaking of her name, the woman surnamed Lin quickly put the bowl on the table, her hands clasped in fists and she looked very proud, as if she really had the style of a heroine.
"I am Lin Yuanhuan, and my home is in Lingzhou."
"Jiang Fuyu."
"Hehuaichun."
After the three of them exchanged their names, they were truly acquainted. Although there may have been some minor misunderstandings before, they would not care about those things at this time. After all, in this world, there is no misunderstanding that a bowl of wine cannot resolve.
Yes, if there is, then two bowls!
After drinking and eating, Lin Yuanhuan stretched out his hand to pat his slightly bulging belly, and then laid his eyes on Jiang Ergou's bronze bird sword.
"You also practice swordsmanship?"
She asked Jiang Ergou bluntly, and the latter took the bronze sparrow sword and asked back.
"Isn't it obvious?"
"Second grade?"
"Um……"
Jiang Ergou pondered for a while and then pretended to be unsure.
"Maybe it can be a little higher."
"Is it the first grade?"
Lin Yuanhuan curled her lips in disbelief, but the next second she changed her attitude and spoke excitedly.
"How about you teach me how to practice swordsmanship!"
Jiang Ergou, who was sitting in his seat, squirted the wine in his mouth far away. Before, he was not sure what kind of medicine her gourd was selling, but now it seems that the woman named Lin is waiting here.
