"Shopkeeper Yu, you've been at the border of Tang Territory for a long time. Now that you're back, we should congratulate you. Why don't we collect two thousand coins to treat your illness?"
After more than twenty breaths, Shopkeeper Cao spoke first.
"Yes, yes. Shopkeeper Yu, we'll pay the money." Shopkeeper Feng expressed his support.
"We'll go tomorrow. Li Dongzhu's medical skills are excellent. Shopkeeper Yu, don't worry." Shopkeeper Liang promised.
The three of them expressed their intention. They'll pay you two thousand coins to treat your illness. There's no problem.
Shopkeeper Yu's face darkened. "Everyone, do you think I can't afford two thousand coins? Some people in this Chang 'an don't remember me. I want to let some people know that I'm back. "
"Brother Yu's words are correct. However, let's treat your illness first. It's only two thousand coins. There's no need to be angry. "Shopkeeper Liang played along.
"We'll pay for the treatment. There's no need to be depressed." Shopkeeper Cao advised.
"No, I must let that kid know how powerful I am. I must turn his sky upside down." Shopkeeper Yu's momentum grew.
"Oh, I just remembered that there's a mistake in the accounts. Shopkeeper Yu, you eat. I have to go back and take a look." Shopkeeper Feng stood up.
At the same time, he took out his membership card and went to the counter.
"Transfer Shopkeeper Yu's money back. This meal is on me." He said to the waiter who came out of Pyong Kang Square.
The waiter gave him a meaningful smile. He picked up a pen and filled in the account again.
"I don't know what I ate at noon. My stomach is going to make a fool of itself. Shopkeeper Yu, I'm sorry." Shopkeeper Liang covered his stomach and stood up with a painful expression.
"I'll go with you. Is it because of the meal I'm treating?" Shopkeeper Cao looked at Shopkeeper Yu apologetically and helped Shopkeeper Liang to go with him.
Yu Huaide sat at the table and looked around. He frowned.
He realized that something was wrong. Why did the three of them run away when Li Yi was mentioned?
Was there something fishy about this?
He didn't want to eat anymore. He put down his chopsticks and stood up. He wanted to go to Pyong Kang Square and find some acquaintances to teach Li Yi a lesson.
He found a few more people. one of them was the deputy district magistrate of Chang 'an, Fan Ai.
A group of more than ten people entered Pyong Kang Square.
"Outside the inn by the broken bridge, loneliness blooms without a master … Everything is crushed into dust, only the fragrance remains as old as before." The sound of music came from one of the floors in Zhongqu.
"Good. What a good 'I have no intention of struggling for love, but I'll let all the other flowers be jealous of me'. The girls of this Pyong Kang Square indeed have the intention of fighting for spring. This song is about people, people by the broken bridge outside the relay station, like peonies blooming … "
Shopkeeper Yu clapped his hands and praised.
The person next to him smiled, implying that Shopkeeper Yu was right.
However, a scholarly looking man heard it and sneered, "He's writing about plum blossoms and peonies. Ha, ha, ha!"
"Do I need you to teach me? First the peony, then the plum. Do you think I don't know? "Shopkeeper Yu couldn't maintain his composure any longer and retorted.
The man dressed like a scholar glanced at him and turned to leave. I'm not going to argue with you. We're not on the same level.
"Looking down on me? I'll let you know … "Shopkeeper Yu had a belly full of anger today and wanted to vent his anger on the scholar.
A person at the side advised: "Shopkeeper Yu, there is no need to lower yourself to the level of a student from Zhao Wen Hall."
"No, I can't. Me, ah? Zhao Wen Hall? Hmph! Today, I'm inviting everyone to seek pleasure. Please let him go. "
Shopkeeper Yu was about to continue looking for trouble when he suddenly recalled a name, Zhao Wen Hall.
Zhao Wen Hall was originally the Hong Wen Hall. After a period of time, until now, because Crown Prince Li Hong had the word Hong, it was changed to Zhao Wen Hall.
This Crown Prince was the son of Wu Zetian.
If it was said that the Imperial College was already impressive enough, then Zhao Wen Hall was even more impressive.
There were the children of the various princes, the prime minister's children, the first rank Crown Prince's Grand Tutor, the Grand Preceptor's children, the children of the nobles …
Shopkeeper Yu probably felt that there was no point in arguing with children, so he chose to forgive them. How magnanimous!
"Today, I went to Sha Sha's place and heard that she composed a new song for a song." County Premier Fan Ai gave him face and didn't say anything, changing the topic.
Recently, he was under a lot of pressure. The county magistrate kept coming up with good ideas, making him seem incompetent.
He wanted to pull in some sponsors and solve the problem of the people's livelihood.
He asked the maidservant. Mistress Sha had sent off a group of guests an hour ago and was resting.
Bolts of silk and satin were thrown out. Sha and the others agreed. Come on, let us sing songs and drink wine for you.
The group of people were very happy. Unless they made an appointment, they really couldn't find such a good time. They couldn't even find money.
When they went in, Sha and everyone were ready. They didn't look tired after receiving a group of people.
After the two sides introduced themselves, Sha greeted everyone one by one.
She then played the zither with her bare hands and sang softly, "If only life was like the first time we met, no matter how sad the autumn wind is, the painting fan … Wings and branches joined together on that day!"
Beside him, there were female dancers, looking sad and sorrowful.
This could also be considered a poem. The first round began with a flat ending.
Shopkeeper Yu was dumbfounded. He stared in a daze and felt very immersed in the scene.
"Good, what a fickle lover. I should catch him and beat him to death," he said angrily. This time, he understood and didn't feel that he was talking about Peony.
"Benefactor Yu is indeed a sentimental person. Why don't we drink together? However, you are not allowed to bully this little girl. "Sha Dajia smiled like a flower.
"Good, good, a drinking game." Shopkeeper Yu smiled and nodded.
A drinking game naturally couldn't be a toad with one mouth, two eyes, and four legs. It also couldn't be a little bee flying into a bush of flowers.
As for the two brothers, six, six, seven coincidences, eight horses. Don't even think about it.
"Our drinking game uses the four seasons as a poem. It's called the Seven Rhymes. It's particular about ending with a flat beginning. The first line determines the rhyme. There shouldn't be three consecutive flat lines, three, four, five or six lines. It starts with spring and ends with …" Sha Dajia explained the rules.
"Hmm!" The county magistrate coughed and signaled with his eyes: Don't, I'm not in charge today. Look at Shopkeeper Yu, can he play?
"Aiyo! My head hurts. This won't do. Why don't we use all things as a poem? There's no limit to the rhyme. Let's make the Seven Rhymes. "
Sha Dajia immediately changed her words. As for whether the poem would be the Seven Rhymes according to what she said, it was no longer important. She just needed to accompany her benefactor.
"Good, all things are good." Shopkeeper Yu was relieved.
"I'll go first. I want to express my feelings. Li Yi from the east of the city is too domineering." Shopkeeper Yu said first.
"My second line is that Sha Sha is the most enchanting." Someone immediately agreed.
"I have a third line." Shopkeeper Yu rushed to say, "I want Li Yi to kneel in front of me."
The others were in a dilemma. What a bullshit poem. Just as they were about to say something to change the topic, Sha Dajia spoke up.
She smiled and asked, "Who is this Li Yi that Shopkeeper Yu is talking about? Why is Shopkeeper Yu so unhappy? "
"It's the Li Family Zhuangzi by the Ba River. That Li Yi doesn't know what's good for him. He treats the poor and doesn't charge a single cent. But for my gonorrhea, he actually asked for two thousand taels.
Hmph! I took five thousand taels to teach him a lesson and didn't let him earn a single cent. It's late today, tomorrow … "
Shopkeeper Yu faced a beautiful woman and directly said it.
As he spoke, the smile on Sha Dajia's face faded. Before he could finish, Sha Dajia's face turned cold.
She asked the county magistrate, "Young Master Fan, have I offended you?"
Fan Ai was shocked and looked at Shopkeeper Yu. He didn't know that there was such a story?
He opened his mouth and wanted to say something. Sha Dajia touched her forehead, "Little Yu He, I'm dizzy. Let me see the guests out and return those things."
"Understood, Lady Sha." A maid beside her also had a cold expression.
She said to the group of people, "My wife is not feeling well and can't entertain you. Please forgive her. Come, follow me to see the guests out. "
"What's wrong? What's wrong? Weren't you fine just now? Why can't you do it? "Shopkeeper Yu looked around and complained.
The others couldn't wait to teleport away from him.
The group of people were asked to leave the courtyard. The things that were given just now were all returned.
"Shopkeeper Yu, I have something to do in the county. I'll take my leave first." Fan Ai cupped his hands and turned to leave.
The others also found excuses to leave. They didn't want to play anymore. This won't do. Shopkeeper Yu, you're too much.
Everyone left. Only Yu Huaide and his followers were left. They carried a lot of silk and satin and were in a daze.
"I don't believe that I can't play by myself. Let's go to the next courtyard." Yu Huaide was angry.
Soon, he realized that things weren't as simple as he thought. He was in the same situation as Shopkeeper Liang.
Even when he was' chased 'out of Pyong Kang Square, he still couldn't figure it out.
"What's wrong? He didn't even want money? Has Chang 'an changed now? "Yu Huaide muttered with a grin.
