Chapter 19 Chapter Nineteen

Zhao Guan waited for Zhen'er and her parents to go away, then turned around from behind Guanyin, looked down at the silver on the ground, guessed that Zhen'er's father had left it as a thank you gift, and was about to reach out to get it , suddenly saw a figure flash, and a person had stepped forward to pick up the silver.Zhao Guan was stunned, and then he realized that it was the little beggar who took the money, and the two of them were stunned when they met each other.Zhao Guan stretched out his hand and said: "It's mine, return it to me quickly." The little beggar had already put the silver into his bosom and said, "The one I saw first was mine."Zhao Guan reached out to grab it.The little beggar backed away, dodged away, and shouted: Are you being rough?

Zhao Guan said angrily: Come back soon!Using the Spring Flower Palm taught by his mother, he hit the little beggar on the shoulder.Unexpectedly, the little beggar relieved his strength from one side of his body, not only he was not injured, but he even smiled at him.Zhao Guan scolded: You bastard!He waved his palm and attacked again. Zhao Guan is one year older than his opponent, and also taller, he took advantage of it, but unexpectedly the little beggar is also very skilled, his movements are slippery, he can resist it all by himself.The two teenagers fought inextricably, and later on they didn't need any moves, they just kicked randomly.The little beggar yelled, rushed up and grabbed Zhao Guan by the collar, and the two fell to the ground.Relying on his strength, Zhao Guan rolled over to the top, pressed the little beggar under him, gasped and said: "Thief boy, return the money!"

The little beggar stared at him and said: "I have a share in saving the little girl of the Chen family. If you want to take it all by yourself, it's not such a good thing!"Zhao Guan reached out his hand to feel in his arms, the little beggar struggled hard, kicked him away, turned over and stood up.The two stood in the temple, looking at each other fiercely. Zhao Guan suddenly remembered something, blurted out: Hey, how do you know that little girl's surname is Chen? The little beggar snorted and said, "Of course I know." Zhao Guan thought for a while, then laughed loudly and said: I see, so you are Xiao Saner!

The little beggar wondered: How do you know?Zhao Guan smiled and said: I naturally know.It turned out that Zhao Guan remembered that the concierge Lao Lin said that he saw a couple with a girl in the city looking for a young man named Xiao San'er. This little beggar behaved strangely, and he knew that the girl's surname was Chen, so he might be Zhen'er's father. The third child in the mother's mouth. Xiao San'er patted the dust on his body, and said with a smile: "Since I was recognized by you, I am too embarrassed to rob you of this money."You are not a bad person, how about we make friends and go to the wine shop to have a good drink together?

Zhao Guan also felt that this little beggar behaved strangely and wanted to make friends. He loved wine since he was a child, and he was often beaten by his mother for stealing wine in the Qingfeng restaurant.Applause now.The two teenagers walked out of the Mercy Temple and headed straight for the famous Drinking Eight Immortals Tavern in Suzhou. The waiter saw that one was the son of the owner of Qingfeng Pavilion and the other was a beggar in ragged clothes, he couldn't help frowning, and wanted to throw them out.Xiao San'er took out the ingot of silver, put it on the table with a bang, and shouted: "Bring three catties of wine, and clean up a table of banquets!"As they spoke, the two teenagers picked up a table and sat down in a grand manner.

The waiter in the shop was dumbfounded, and after a while he said: "Little ancestor, did you steal your money?" Zhao Guan raised his head and stared: "Zhu Twelve, are you speaking human words?"Will I, Zhao Guan, steal other people's money?Zhu Twelve looked at Xiao San'er, as if asking: You didn't steal it, didn't this little beggar steal it?Xiao San'er also raised her head and said, "Is what you said human?Will my third young master steal other people's money? Zhu Twelve couldn't help laughing when he heard that the little beggar's clothes were shabby but he called himself a young master, and said, "So it's a young master."Okay, okay, you two want to drink, but what kind of food do you want to order?

Zhao Guan grew up in Suzhou, so he is familiar with the local delicacies, so he said: How about this, let Master Zhang cut a plate of crispy crystal lamb, stir-fry a plate of pickled vegetables and edamame with a hundred leaves, add pickled three delicacies, boiled dried shredded, These are four appetizers; the main course is three sets of duck, stewed soft-shelled turtle, crystal meat hoof, stewed lion's head with crab powder, squirrel mandarin fish, lotus iron bird, three shrimp tofu, shark's fin wrapped in duck, Longjing shrimp, and a tender steamed fermented bean curd Meat, night flower stuffed meat, dried ham mixed with Malan head, that's twelve.For this soup, I want a West Lake Chicken Lip Vegetable Soup.As for the wine, let's have a pot of Danyang sealed tank, and a pot of Shaoxing with rice, what good wine do you have?That's right, let's also have a pot of your shop's signature wine, Xinghuacun Fenjiu.

Zhu Twelve repeatedly agreed, counted more than ten kinds of dishes again, and then left. Xiao San'er only salivated when he heard it, and said with a smile: "Sounds really good!"Or the locals understand.Brother, what is your last name?Zhao Guandao: My surname is Zhao, and my single name is Guan.Brother, what is your last name? Xiao San'er was stunned for a while, then said: My father will drive me out of the house soon, I dare not say my surname.My mother is also angry, I better not mention her name.My name is Haotian, I'm the third at home, and my nickname is Xiaosan'er.Just call me Little Saner.

Not long after, Zhu Twelve brought wine, Zhao Guan poured two full glasses of wine, raised his glass and said: "Little brother, I respect you!"Xiao San'er smiled and said: Good!The two toasted to each other, seeing that the other party was not bad at drinking, they both felt that they had run into confidants, and they took turns to respect each other, and in an instant they had each drank seven large cups.The store companions came to serve the dishes one after another, Zhao Guan and Xiao San'er talked and laughed loudly while drinking and eating, as if no one was around.The diners in the wine shop were very surprised to see these two children drinking like soup and talking in a quack tone, many of them stopped to watch.

Zhao Guan had never been so beautiful in Suzhou city, and even laughed heartily and drank heavily.Xiao San'er is also very good at drinking, after a few drinks, his face does not show any drunkenness, he praised Suzhou's famous delicacies, and said: I heard people say: there is heaven above, and Suzhou and Hangzhou below.Your Suzhou cuisine is delicious and crispy, thick but not greasy, salty and sweet, mellow and delicious, it really makes people feel ecstatic, as if in heaven! Zhao Guan said with a smile: This Jiuxiangfang is famous for its good wine, and its dishes are among the best.Little brother, how do you like this wine?Xiao San'er said: This Fen wine has a fragrant aroma and is soft in the mouth, it is definitely the genuine product of Xinghua Village.Zhao Guandao: "It's not just the real thing?"The Fen wine hidden here is the top grade in Xinghua Village.Third brother, let me toast you again.The two ate and talked, drank and laughed, and after a short time, the cups and plates were messed up, and they were very drunk, so they swayed, put their arms together, and walked out of the wine fragrance shop talking and singing. He stared sideways, wondering which family these two drunk teenagers were from.

Zhao Guan couldn't remember what happened afterwards, as if someone pulled him somewhere and poured some soup into his mouth.He fell into a sleepy sleep for a long time before waking up and found himself lying on the bed in the bedroom of the Qingfeng Pavilion, thinking that his mother had caught him back.It was dark outside the window, I don't know how late it was. Soon there was a knock at the door, and Liu Qiniang walked into the room with a gloomy expression, and said, "Hi!Zhao Guan lowered his head, not daring to look at her, and said in a low voice: Mother, I was wrong!He knew that his mother would not go into the details when she saw someone admitting her mistake, so Liu Qiniang's face softened a little and she asked him what he had done.Zhao Guan's mind was still groggy, and after gathering his composure, he told the truth about how he rescued Chen Zhen'er and met Xiao San'er. Liu Qiniang turned her head and thought for a while, then said: The couple surnamed Chen are probably Guanzhong hero Chen Jinyun and his wife Chi'er.You didn't let them see you, that's fine.That little beggar must have some connection with them, he didn't say what his last name is? Zhao Guandao: No.He said OK San, if you want me to call him Xiao Saner. Liu Qiniang shook her head and said: "There are so many people who are good at the world, who knows who he is?"This little devil has a better drinking capacity than you bastard. I really don't know how his parents were born. Zhao Guan said with a smile on his face: Mother, you can drink well, people say you are a romantic and romantic person who never gets drunk after a thousand cups, no wonder I love wine too.Liu Qiniang stretched out her hand to grab his ear, and cursed: "You bastard, next time you dare to go to a restaurant to show off and drink, I will tear your mouth apart!"Do you know how many elixirs I used to make you keep your intestines in your stomach without vomiting them out? Zhao Guan's ear hurts, he yelled loudly, and laughed repeatedly: "Don't dare next time, don't dare next time!"Liu Qiniang scolded: Next time?Where is the next time?Just like your father, he just loves things in the cup, what kind of father, what kind of son! Zhao Guan was stunned, he had never heard his mother talk about his father, and asked: Mother, my father also likes to drink?Liu Qiniang seemed to have slipped her tongue, and didn't answer, she just said: "You sleep a little longer, I still have things to do." Although Zhao Guan wanted to ask more questions, he was still dizzy and afraid of getting a beating, so he shrank back under the blanket and fell asleep. But it was said that the next night at about You, Young Master Pan and the three young masters of the Wang family came in sedan chairs. Liu Qiniang led Xiulian to greet them at the door, and invited the four young masters into Xiafeng Pavilion of Xiulian.Xiulian, together with the three leading girls Jiaohe, Baoling, and Qianping greeted them attentively, they were tender and sweet, and they served the four young masters until they got drunk before drinking.Seeing that everything was in order, Liu Qiniang ordered the companions and maids in the restaurant to hold a banquet before leaving. She returned to Chunfeng Pavilion, changed the silk and satin on her body, put on a black dress, and went out with Lilac and Yexiang.Zhao Guan was drunk the night before, and Liu Qiniang didn't take him to punish him.Zhao Guan had already prepared the boat for them at the water gate, and prayed: "Grandma Baihua bless you, everything goes well for this trip!"Liu Qiniang nodded, then stepped into the boat with Dingxiang Yexiang and rowed slowly.
