The old Taoist stood there as if he was in a different world, talking to himself, not knowing what he was muttering about.
Suddenly, he kicked off the bench and laughed: "From now on, I will be the first-class guest of Huishan."
Obviously, even if the old man plans to continue to set up a stall to cancel the visa, no one will be interested in asking for a signature.
The old Taoist priest suddenly heard a slightly joking voice in his ears, "Old Immortal Chief, this is a Wudang in the mountains of Taoist priests, it's not appropriate for you to talk like this." ” It was the old Taoist priest who was full of arrogance when he frowned and turned his head to look, and saw a young man who he felt was barely able to be called Yushu Linfeng, the old Taoist snorted coldly, "How can I say it, but Huishan's first-class guest Qing Even if Chen Lao Shenxian and Yu Lao Zhenren are the two, if the poor Dao meets them now, he must be able to ask for a cup of tea."
The young man gave a thumbs up and exclaimed, "Amazing" The woman beside the young man laughed and said, "Old Wu, it was this son who helped you speak just now, you have a heart covered with lard."
The old Taoist priest was stunned, immediately changed his face, and said with a smile: "It's a poor Taoist faux pas, don't blame the son." ” The old Taoist priest strode towards the woman's stall, the big sleeves of the Taoist robe swayed violently, quite a dragon and a tiger step, "Sister Han, come on, come on, help the old brother and this son to have two Wudang spring baked cakes, remember to make the cake stall bigger, the old brother is not short of the silver, not to mention that we are never stingy" The woman shook her head to herself, a little helpless.
She was clever with her hands and feet, and practice makes perfect, and soon handed the two of them a full amount of Wudang spring baked cakes, steaming hot and fragrant.
When he took the spring baked cake, the old Taoist wanted to touch the woman's hand, but the latter withdrew his hand one step faster, and did not let this old man succeed.
The old Taoist took a big bite of the spring baked cake, and said with a smile: "Sister Han, what are you doing this hard work, if you get up early and touch the dark, you can't earn a few silver, otherwise how about accompanying me to Nahui Mountain?"
The woman rolled her eyes and said, "Go to the Central Plains and do something."
The old Taoist smiled and said: "Brother, my thoughts, sister, don't you know yet?"
The woman was stunned for a moment, then said angrily, "Get out" The old Taoist didn't give up and said: "Sister, isn't your man gone outside the Liangzhou Pass very early, what happened to remarry after so many years, your family is orphaned and widowed, how pitiful, it's a good thing to have a reliable man to take care of it."
Besides, didn't you let my brother unsign before?"
The woman, who was already very angry, turned pale, took a few steps forward, pulled the spring baked cake in the old man's hand, and fell to the ground, "who I sell the spring baked cake, and I won't sell it to a disgusting person like you, no matter how much silver I give, I'm dirty."
The old Taoist priest was not angry, but said regretfully: "Alas, Sister Han, you are a good woman, but unfortunately you don't enjoy a blessed life."
That's it, let's just treat it as if we have no fate. ” The woman paid no attention to the old disrespectful fellow.
The old Taoist priest sighed to himself, turned his head to the young man and smiled: "Well, the poor Taoist has to go to the Central Plains to enjoy the blessings by himself."
Qingshan does not change the green water for a long time, son, if you go to Huishan to play in the future, you can report the name of the poor road. ” The young man laughed, "Okay. ” The old Taoist left in style.
The young man asked, "Old Daoist, don't even want a stall?"
The old Taoist priest didn't turn around, waved his hand, and said seemingly open-mindedly: "What do you want to do with those worthless objects, if you like it, it will be yours."
When the old Taoist priest walked far away, the woman whispered to the young man: "I didn't even tell the son what his surname was, and reported his name, I've seen a thick-skinned person, I really haven't seen such a thick Fortunately, I heard that this old guy is from Hezhou, otherwise it would really be a loss for our Beiliang's face." ” Xu Fengnian asked with a smile: "Listen to the accent, my sister-in-law is from our Northern Liangling Prefecture."
The woman's eyes were strange, and she said half-loudly, "Childe asked what this is for?"
Xu Fengnian, who was swallowing Wudang spring baked cakes, almost choked.
The woman covered her mouth and smiled: "Look at what scares you, sister-in-law is teasing you." ” Xu Fengnian couldn't cry or laugh, and walked to the stall next door while biting the spring baked cakes, picked up the bench, turned his head and smiled: "Sister-in-law, the guy who invited me to eat the spring baked cakes ran away, otherwise I will sign it for you, and it will be used as cake money."
After the intimidating woman's toss, the woman's stall business was deserted, she sat on the bench and stretched out her hand to gently beat her waist, looked at the young man with a gentle smile, and said suspiciously: "You will unsign" Xu Fengnian nodded and said, "It's the old job."
The woman shook her head and smiled: "Son, you, no old guy can deceive people, where will the sister-in-law be fooled by this, don't worry, forget about the cake money, sister-in-law invites you." ” Xu Fengnian asked curiously: "Sister-in-law, why did you come from Lingzhou to set up a stall in this Wudang Mountain?"
The woman said calmly: "My mother's family is here, some time ago I came to the mountain to burn incense and pray for blessings, after seeing the situation here, I thought that I just knew these crafts, and I was idle, so I felt that I could make more money by setting up a stall." ” Xu Fengnian asked with a smile: "I guess the children of my sister-in-law's family are all studying in Mengguan School, right, let's Beiliang here, books are expensive, and they are the most expensive." ” The woman stopped talking again, and looked at Xu Fengnian in a daze.
Xu Fengnian, who was a little aggrieved, said helplessly: "Sister-in-law, I'm really not the kind of person that Old Man Wu is" The woman couldn't help but laugh and said, "I really can't stand the teasing, but it's not like our Beiliang masters." ” Xu Fengnian feigned anger and said, "Sister-in-law, don't scold." ” The woman waved her hand, took a small bench and a bowl of calming soup, sat opposite Xu Fengnian, and said with a smile: "The cake is for you, this bowl of calming soup can be regarded as unsigning."
My sister-in-law is illiterate, so don't lie to me. ” Xu Fengnian finished eating the spring baked cakes, leaned over and took a big sip of the calming soup, "How can it." ” The woman holds the bamboo tube in both hands, and her eyes are reverent.
Xu Fengnian was sitting precariously, smiling silently.
Signed behind the table, she grabbed her tail with the thumb and index finger of both hands, probably because she was illiterate, so she didn't need to look at anything in detail.
She also handed it to Xu Fengnian with both hands.
The wordless solemnity seemed to be handing over life.
The common people who have never had a relationship with the history of the world always believe that there are gods three feet above their heads, and they will die like life, so they are willing to believe in the good fortune of the next life, and they will work tirelessly to climb the heights and burn incense and pray.
Xu Fengnian turned out to be a bamboo stick, and after reading the signature, the corners of his mouth turned up, and he said softly: "Forget your feet, and you can do it properly."
Forget the waist, and the belt is suitable.
Seventy-second sign, signed. ” The woman was illiterate, but she could generally understand the content of the signature, and as for the two words on the signature, it was even more concise and to the point, without doubt.
She smiled with relief.
Xu Fengnian took back the bamboo skewer and put it in the bamboo tube, took a sip of calming soup, and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law is a good person and has good rewards." ” She smiled brightly.
After that, the two chatted casually, and most of them said that he listened.
She said that she saw the local style of Lingzhou, of course, at most the two children in the family are in school, she said that the older children are not bad, not so stubborn, although no one has ever heard of Mr.
Xueshu praise anything, most of them are not in the exam, it is estimated that it is not easy to become a child through the county examination, but every time she looks at the child reading with the lamp, putting on the unique look of a reader shaking his head, she will be very happy for no reason.
At the same time, the younger child gave her a headache, and she would rather work in the fields than go to a private school to endorse it, and she wanted to fight and kill barbarians at a young age.
In the first two years, at least in Lingzhou, children could get very cheap books, which were so cheap that people from poor families like her felt that it was cheap, because there was a big official surnamed Xu in Lingzhou before, and it was his idea, it seems that the big official said that there are fewer people in Beiliang, but there can be more readers.
She didn't know if it was true or not, anyway, those Mengxue books were indeed a lot cheaper than the previous five or six years.

So she said that the official surnamed Xu was a good person, but it was a pity that she heard that she left Lingzhou to become an official in Liangzhou.
Xu Fengnian smiled gently, looked into the distance, and said softly: "Orange him, everything is good, but the wine is a little worse." ” The woman didn't understand, and she didn't ask any more questions.
There was a business at her stall, and the woman asked, "Childe, can I get that slip back?"
Xu Fengnian said with a smile: "Then I have to look for it, sister-in-law, you go and get busy first, and I'll send it to you when I find it." ” She nodded, and after getting up, the woman suddenly blushed and said, "Childe, it's okay to call my aunt, don't call my sister-in-law."
Xu Fengnian was confused, the woman snorted coldly, and went to the stall next door to get busy.
Xu Fengnian shook his head, he didn't know what to do, he poured out the bamboo tube, poured out the bamboo sticks, and after Wei Chi Yuquan and Xuanyuan Qingfeng, the original one hundred and eight marriage sticks were missing, and five were missing.
He took out the stick that the woman had shaken out and got up and sent it.
She still didn't seem to understand what she meant, so she was a little embarrassed.
She glanced at the bamboo sticks and carefully put them away, looked up and asked, "Don't lie to me about that stick." ” Xu Fengnian shook his head and said, "Don't lie." ” She smiled and said, "Go ahead, go ahead, sister-in-law won't delay you to cheat people's money." ” Xu Fengnian, who was a little depressed, sat back at the table, returned to his old business, became familiar with the way, and began to aggressively solicit business.
It's just that the old Taoist with a goatee left such a mess, good things don't go out, bad things spread thousands of miles, and the nearby stalls believe that Xu Fengnian is a god stick who drills money, and he is young, and he is not wearing a bluffing robe at the moment, which naturally gives people the impression that there is no hair on his mouth and he is not firm.
Xu Fengnian had to take a small sip of the calming soup, which was really boring.
Xu Fengnian gradually changed from sitting upright with a dignified posture to crossing Erlang's legs, and then to lying on the table and shaking the stick, and finally simply shook out a bamboo stick by himself, and threw it back casually without looking at the signature.
The woman next door wiped the sweat from her forehead and laughed: "How can you do the most difficult thing in the world to do business, it is to take money from other people's bags, son, you are good."
Xu Fengnian sighed: "Do you really want me to borrow a robe from Wudang?"
The woman wondered, "The son doesn't look like a person who is short of money, it's really rare to have that bit of silver."
Xu Fengnian subconsciously glanced at the direction of the thatched hut, and said with a soft smile: "My daughter-in-law is the most unproductive, she only likes to collect copper coins, big and small, she doesn't dislike them, just like a miser." ” The woman was overjoyed, "and it was a loss that your daughter-in-law was not there" Then she persuaded: "Women are like this, son, you want to open some." ” Xu Fengnian thought so, "The swallow is muddy, and the little things add up to the lot, which is the reason." ” The woman exhaled and raised her hand to brush the sweat-soaked sideburns, "Sister-in-law went back first." ” Xu Fengnian asked strangely: "I went down the mountain so early and broke so many things, I can move them."
She pointed to a young woman who was walking slowly from the mountain road outside Lu Zuting, and said with a smile: "She is my niece, selling rouge gouache on the higher Yuqingguan side of the mountain, it is estimated that it was sold out early, and it used to be later to help me help, and now I am lazy and go down the mountain early." ” Xu Fengnian got up and said: "Go down the mountain from here, but there are still a lot of mountain roads to go, sister-in-law, I'll help you pick a road."
She shook her head and said resolutely: "No, I have a lot of things here, but they are not heavy." ” Xu Fengnian joked: "Sister-in-law, just because I have bad intentions, I will send you to the archway at the foot of the mountain, okay."
The woman took a sip, glared at Xu Fengnian, who was unabashed, and said with an angry smile: "You are not afraid of bad words, sister-in-law is afraid that my niece is very spicy."
Why, could it be that you fell in love with her, and her sister-in-law could be a matchmaker. ” Xu Fengnian glanced at the young woman who was getting closer and closer, gasped, her waist was not a willow tree, but a big locust tree, and said with a wry smile: "Forget it." ” She took advantage of the fact that her young niece was not yet close to the two adjacent stalls, facing Xu Fengnian, her eyebrows were soft and low, and she asked softly, "What do you want?"
At this moment, she saw that young man, handsome, especially his eyes were clear, as clean as the elephant washing pond she saw when she first climbed Wudang Mountain when she was young.
Xu Fengnian said: "I have been to Liangzhou Pass, Huaiyang Pass, and Hutou City. ” She said calmly, "That's right." ” Xu Fengnian grinned.
She asked for no reason: "Do you say that the Northern Mangbarians will fight all the way here, will they fight to Lingzhou?"
Xu Fengnian looked resolute and said: "As long as there is one person left in our Beiliang Iron Cavalry, then the hooves of the Northern Mangmang Barbarians will not be able to step on a single grass and tree in Beiliang Pass." ” She nodded, and then said with a smile: "The tone is so big, it seems like I am a big official." ” Xu Fengnian laughed and said, "I'm not an official. ” She said angrily: "This also needs to be said." ” Xu Fengnian still didn't want to give up, "Sister-in-law, you really don't need to help carry the burden" Her next sentence made Xu Fengnian stunned, "Don't be sister-in-law, sister-in-law, I've seen a lot of people in the rivers and lakes these days, listen to them, when our young prince used to wander the rivers and lakes, there was a mantra, what is delicious but dumplings, fun but sister-in-law" Xu Fengnian stretched out his hand and wiped his face, grief and indignation.
The phrase "still a fart" I said at the top of the big snow flat, no one has mentioned it to you, isn't it more bullish than this mantra?
Besides, this sentence is also a wooden sword ranger who is a hanger, and he hearsed it somewhere and then he had to teach me.
The woman's eyes narrowed, she stopped talking, and turned to collect her belongings.
Xu Fengnian looked at her back, and finally didn't dare to call her sister-in-law anymore, but just asked: "Is there any deduction or arrears in the pension money from the government?"
She froze, didn't turn around, shook her head and said, "No, his old captain often sent us extra silver a few years ago, but he didn't have it last year." ” She paused for a moment and said softly, "I only heard this spring that the old Wu Chang died in Hutou City. ” She never looked back after that.
She actually knew that the first marriage stick she shook out was not the bamboo stick in her arms, she was illiterate, but she firmly remembered the number of words on that stick.
But it doesn't matter.
Ordinary people, no matter how hard life is, as long as there is hope, gritted teeth can go on.
Her hopes lie in the two children, and it doesn't matter whether the lottery drawn today is good or bad.
Finally, before she and her niece picked up their burdens and left, they stumbled upon a glimpse of the young man who always seemed to be clean, sitting behind the table with his back straight, his hands clenched into fists on his laps, quiet.
Not much like a young man, but like an old man, the spring breeze is far away, and he can only silently bask in the warm autumn sun
