Poor Family Chapter 82

  Chapter 82, brother is just a legend

  Getting off the carriage, Li Wuya and Li Qilang heard the noise and yelling coming from Beishi. Even if they didn't go in, they could still imagine the lively scene inside.

  Li Qilang took out his purse and paid for the three people's carriage, and then he couldn't wait to drag Li Wuya into Beishi.

  Gan Fanren didn't get the purses of the siblings, so he could only continue shopping with them.

  He glanced at it just now, and there is at least twenty taels of silver in the brat's purse, including the little girl's. After getting it, he can stop working for three or four months.

   "Wow~"

   Entering Beishi, the vibrant world of fireworks blows over us.

  Seeing the bustling scene full of merchants, cars and horses, goods stalls, and people on the street, both siblings opened their mouths in shock.

too many people!

  On the street, pedestrians are bustling, shoulder to shoulder, and the stream is endless.

There are those who sit in sedan chairs, those who ride horses, those who drive donkeys, those who push wheelbarrows, officials on patrol, peddlers who carry loads and peddle along the street, farmers with baskets on their backs, and alleys where people listen to books. Children, there are rich children who are drinking in restaurants, and there are old people and children begging by the walls of houses.

   Storytellers, singers, jugglers, and performers are all shouting hard.

   "Sister, there is a sugar seller there!"

   "Sister, there are candied haws!"

  Li Qilang dragged Li Wuya through the crowd freely. After a while, the two of them were holding candied candied haws in one hand and a bell and windmill in the other.

  Gan Fanren was out of breath after chasing after him, and after finally catching up, Li Qilang took Li Wuya to watch the lion dance ahead.

   "These two brats are so good at running!"

  The footsteps are faster than that of a street gangster like him.

  Li Wuya let Li Qilang drag her around, her eyes sweeping over the shops in the city.

The capital city is more prosperous and lively than she expected. According to Gan Fanren, Beishi is just a market in the outer city, and most of the people living in the outer city are ordinary people, but here silk and satin, jewelry and spices, medical clinics, cart repair, Facelifts come in all shapes and sizes.

  Just now she found out that several streets and alleys are engaged in entertainment industries such as restaurants, teahouses, brothels, theaters, etc.

   It can be seen from this that the life of the people in the capital is very rich and the economy is very prosperous.

  After strolling around for a few streets, Li Qilang stopped suddenly, stood at a crossroads, twitched his nose, smelled from left to right, and then dragged Li Wuya straight to the street to the east.

   "Sister, I smell a special smell of meat, there must be something delicious there."

   Not long after, the siblings stood in front of a restaurant named Shu Ji Lu Xiang.

   "Gulu~"

  Smelling the scent wafting from the shop, both Li Wuya and Li Qilang couldn't help swallowing.

   "Shall we go in and have a taste?"

   "I think it's okay, let's eat quickly, and then we will pack something for our parents and go home."

  After the decision is made, the siblings are ready to go in.

   Unexpectedly, as soon as he stepped forward, he was stopped by the waiter at the door.

   "You two little guests, you can't go in."

"Why?"

  Li Qilang thought that the waiter thought they had no money, so he straightened his chest and patted the wallet on his waist: "We are not short of money."

  The waiter in the store laughed: "It's not about money. If the two little guest officers want to eat in the store, they can make a reservation first."

  Li Qilang frowned: "A reservation is required?"

  The store waiter nodded with a smile: "Yes, reservations are required." He pointed to the wooden sign hanging in front of the store, on which were written ten sets of numbers.

   "You make a reservation first, and then you can get a number plate. When you see your number plate hanging on the door of the store, you can come to the store to enjoy the food."

  Li Wuya frowned: "You only receive ten groups of guests every day?"

  The store waiter smiled: "Of course not, customers who hold the emblem of our store don't need to make a reservation."

  Li Wuya immediately said: "Then let's buy a piece of your emblem card."

  The waiter in the shop smiled and shook his head: "We don't sell emblem cards in this shop."

  Li Wuya was taken aback by the store's business model.

  Li Qilang was already attracted by the smell, and said with a wrinkled face, "Sister, I want to eat now."

Li Wuya is a person who likes spicy food. Although there are spicy peppers at the border, the taste is not very good. Now that I smell such authentic spicy food, I don't want to leave. ?”

  The waiter in the shop smiled and said nothing.

   Regardless of the fact that their store is located in Beishi, all the people they can receive are dignitaries and dignitaries. To be able to accept reservations from ten ordinary people every day is already accommodating by the boss.

   Just when Li Qilang was about to say something, Gan Fanren chased him out of breath.

  Seeing the salivation of the siblings, you can tell what happened.

   Hastily stepped forward, cupped his fists at the waiter in the shop, and then pulled the siblings away from the door of the shop: "Shu Ji Lu Xiang is not for ordinary people to enter."

   Both Li Wuya and Li Qilang's eyes widened: "Why?"

  Gan Fanren: "Shu Ji Luxiang receives high-ranking officials and dignitaries. Ordinary people want to go in and eat, and they have to wait in line for several months. It's not that they can eat other things, so why waste this time."

  Li Qilang: "But their meat dishes are delicious."

  Gan Fanren was a little speechless, could he still smell the fragrance: "Let me tell you this, in the capital, you can enter many places without money, and you have to have status before people will receive you."

   "Like the emblem plate of Shu Ji Luxiang, people will only give it to officials of the court and noble and wealthy people. We ordinary people can only smell it."

   "Okay, don't stick around here, don't you want to eat delicious food, I will take you to another stewed meat shop, the stewed meat there is no worse than the one here."

  Li Wuya and Li Qilang were a little depressed: "What are you doing, it's just a meal, but it depends on your identity!"

   Depression is depression, there is no way to change it, the siblings can only reluctantly leave with Gan Fanren.

  The stewed meat shop he mentioned is not far away, just diagonally opposite Shuji Luxiang.

   "Chuanji Luxiang!"

   Li Wuya watched the roll call, and the corners of her mouth twitched. Ancient people also knew how to gain fame!

If it is said that Shuji Luxiang is in the style of a high-end club, then this Chuanji Luxiang is in the down-to-earth style of civilians, not to mention the decoration. In order to receive more guests, a row table.

  By the street, shirtless and stout men are yelling and punching and eating meat. This scenery is also enough for fireworks.

  Li Qilang sniffed the smell coming from the shop, and held his face: "The smell is not as good as the one opposite."

  Gan Fanren was a little speechless: "Let's just order it, hey, there's an empty seat over there, let's go there quickly."

  As expected of a person who grew up in the capital, Gan Fanren obviously knew how to fight for positions, squeezing left and right, and successfully occupied the vacant position.

  Seeing him like this, Li Wuya's eyes flickered.

   This man is a kid!

   "Come and sit down!"

  Gan Fanren waved to Li Wuya and Li Qilang.

  The siblings walked over and sat down, not knowing how to order, so they couldn't help but look at Gan Fanren.

  Gan Fanren smiled and said nothing.

   Seeing him like this, Li Wuya said: "We treat guests."

  Hearing this, Gan Fanren laughed immediately, and quickly raised his hand to greet the waiter.

  Although Chuanji Luxiang is not as good as Shuji Luxiang, it sells braised pork after all, and a meal is still very expensive. If he is not really hungry on weekdays, he is reluctant to come here to eat.

  The purses of these two brats are a bit difficult to handle, so eat them first, and today is not in vain.

   "Chuanji Luxiang's braised pig's trotters, braised pig's head, and braised duck neck are all very good." Gan Fanren quickly introduced them to the two.

  Li Qilang heard this, and quickly asked the waiter in the shop to give him two catties for each item.

   "Eating stewed meat and dipping dishes, do you want to dry it, or do you want to dip it in sauce?"

   "Both."

  Li Qilang is very generous when it comes to food. Seeing how generous he is, Gan Fanren is secretly happy that he can have a full meal today.

   Soon, the waiter came over with braised pork.

  Li Qilang saw him, and immediately stood up, ready to take the food plate.

   At this moment, an accident occurred.

  Three strong men suddenly appeared on the street, and there were many pedestrians on the street, and they were immediately knocked down by them.

   Crying and screaming soared into the sky.

  The strong man was followed by more than a dozen soldiers, and it was obvious that those soldiers were chasing the three strong men.

  As these people poured into the street, everyone rushed to avoid it. One time, this person was knocked to the ground, the cart was overturned, and the pavements on both sides of the street were knocked over. After a while, the street became chaotic.

  The three strong men were extremely fast. One ran on the left side of the street, one ran on the right side of the street, and one ran in the middle. While running, the three of them hit pedestrians, destroyed street pavements, and constantly created obstacles to stop the pursuit of soldiers.

  Gan Fanren saw the faces of the three strong men clearly, and his complexion suddenly changed. Aren't these the three thieves that Dali Temple issued a sea arrest document to catch?

  In the blink of an eye, a strong man came to Chuanji Luxiang shop.

  Li Wuya and Li Qilang were sitting at the first table outside the shop. As soon as the strong man came over, he ran directly into the waiter who couldn't avoid it.

  In an instant, the food plate flew up, and the marinated meat and dipping sauce on the plate fell into the air, and then Li Qilang, who was standing opposite, was covered in the dipping sauce and was even pushed by the strong man.

   But, no push.

  The strong man froze for a moment, did not stop, and continued to run forward.

   "Ah~"

   "My flesh, my clothes!"

  Li Qilang's clothes are specially made for returning to Shi's house, and they are still brand new.

  Looking at the juice on his chest, Li Qilang felt distressed.

  Although life at home is better than before, in his view, new clothes are very precious, so cherish them!

   What annoyed him the most was that all the stewed pork he ordered fell on the ground.

   "Can't eat."

  Li Qilang's heart was broken, he turned around suddenly, pointed at the strong man who hit him and shouted: "Stop for me, in broad daylight, you knocked over my flesh, you have to accompany me."

   He bought the meat with silver, and he hasn't eaten a bite yet.

  Gan Fanren and the people around only felt a flash in front of them, and Li Qilang rushed out with a "whoosh". When they looked over, they saw that Li Qilang had already caught up with the strong man.

   "My meat, my clothes!"

  Li Qilang raised his arms horizontally, and stopped the strong man angrily: "Run, just run, why did you bump into my flesh and stain my new clothes, you will lose money!"

  The strong man was stunned, and noticed that the people on their side were also stunned.

  Gan Fanren swallowed hard, his heart shaking.

  Li Qilang is too fast!

  The strong man came back to his senses in an instant, his eyes were fierce, his hands were like eagle claws, and he attacked Li Qilang fiercely.

  Li Qilang flashed his figure and dodged quickly. He was not good at close combat, so he could only dodge left and right to avoid the attack.

  The two fought back and forth, but they bought time for the pedestrians in front to dodge.

  Looking at this scene, Gan Fanren's heart beat faster, and a thin layer of sweat oozes from his forehead. He was very grateful in his heart. Fortunately, fortunately, he never found a chance to steal the purses of the two of them.

  Before he recovered from Li Qilang's huge shock, a shrill scream pulled him back from his thoughts.

  Looking at the sound, the eyelids twitched again.

   Diagonally across from them, a strong man knocked over the iron pan for frying fried fruit on the street, and a whole pot of boiling hot oil poured out directly.

  In front of the frying pan, a five or six-year-old boy was crying loudly.

  Seeing the hot oil rushing towards the little boy, the hearts of Gan Fanren and those around him went cold. The whole pot of hot oil splashed on him, and the little boy would have been scalded to death.

  Because the little boy was too close to the frying pan, the people around him had no time even if they wanted to save him.

   Just at the critical moment, a gray cloth flew out of the air, directly blocking the hot oil.

  At the same time, a straw hat hit the little boy, directly threw him out, and threw him into the arms of a tall man next to him.

   "Kangdang~"

  The moment the little boy was far away, the oil pan fell to the ground, and the sound of the heavy landing made everyone's scalps tingle.

   Before the matter was over, the stove under the oil pan was overturned, sparks touched the hot oil, and with a 'boom', the scorching flames instantly flew up.

   Another blue cloth flew over and covered the flames.

   Without a sound, the flame went out, preventing the flame from spreading.

   "Gulu~"

  Gan Fanren swallowed again, looking at Li Wuya who was sitting calmly at the table, drinking tea leisurely, couldn't help but backed away.

   Even if he has no common sense, he also knows that a layer of light cloth will not stop the hot oil and extinguish the flames.

  But it happened to be blocked, and it happened to go out.

  The girl who threw out the cloth with internal force used her internal force!

  Who can tell him, what is the background of these two siblings? !

  The man at the next table was also a little dazed, looking at Li Wuya weakly: "My cloth"

   Before he could speak, he was stopped by his companion.

  Li Wuya ignored Gan Fanren and the people around him, and looked directly at Li Qilang in front of him.

Li Qilang was still hiding and shouting: "I said this uncle, we can solve the problem by paying a little money, but now you attack me, the nature of this has changed, you are forcing me to attack you Let's do it!"

  The strong man paused, seeing that the pursuers were coming, he hesitated for a moment, took out the purse in his arms, and threw it directly to Li Qilang.

  Li Qilang caught the purse and immediately dodged to the side, out of the way.

   Seeing him so forthright, the strong man froze for a moment.

  I knew this brat wanted money, why did he fight him just now?

   Waste of his time!

  The Dali Temple officers and soldiers chasing after saw him let the prisoner go, and immediately shouted: "Catch that villain, don't let him go!"

  Li Qilang saw that everyone around him was looking at him, and the official who was running towards him also pointed at him, and spread his hands: "This is none of my business."

  The official of Dali Temple was so angry that he vomited blood. Seeing that the boy stepped aside because the gangster gave him money, he immediately shouted: "Catch that man, we will give you money."

  Li Qilang's eyes lit up: "Give me the money? Why didn't you say so earlier." As he spoke, he stretched out his hand, "Give me the money, and I'll help you catch people right away."

   Seeing that the brat is still a master who does not see rabbits or scatter eagles, the officer took out his purse angrily and threw it over.

  Li Qilang jumped up, grabbed the purse accurately, then overturned the weight of the purse, put it in his arms with a smile, and chased after the strong man in a flash.

   After a while, the strong man was overtaken again.

  The strong man was furious: "I gave you money!"

  Li Qilang: "That's compensation for you. Now someone is asking me to arrest you with money." After speaking, he changed his previous dodge, grabbed the bamboo pole spread next to him, and began to greet the strong man's legs.

  The strong man couldn't run away from him, and after being attacked several times by the bamboo pole, he had to turn around and fight Li Qilang.

   "Hurry up, I stopped the man for you!"

  The officer in the back saw that Li Qilang really stopped the strong man, and he was fighting against the strong man very easily, so he immediately knew that Li Qilang was not using all his strength.

   "Catch the other two too!"

   "But you only gave money to arrest one person, and the other two are none of my business."

  The officer wanted to vomit blood, and quickly looked at the subordinates behind him: "Take out the money on your body, and make it up for you when you go back."

   Just like that, another purse flew towards Li Qilang.

  Received the purse, Li Qilang was too lazy to entangle with the strong man, and with internal force in his hand, a bamboo pole was pulled on the strong man and he stepped back. With a 'plop', the strong man staggered and knelt on the ground.

   Seeing that the strong man couldn't stand up anymore, Li Qilang immediately flew towards the other two strong men.

"boom!"

   The one who was running slowly was caught up, and was hit on the back by Li Qilang with a bamboo pole, and he fell to the ground directly.

   Just as Li Qilang was going to chase the third strong man, a group of people in black flying fish suits appeared at the street ahead.

   "Special Examiner!"

  Seeing someone coming, the last strong man stopped running, but turned back quickly, and then had a face-to-face encounter with Li Qilang, who was holding a bamboo pole.

   "Stinky boy, you are courting death!"

   After speaking, the strong man attacked and killed him regardless.

"boom!"

  Li Qilang knew that he was not good at melee combat, so he stepped on the stall on the street and jumped into the air, hitting the strong man straight away.

  Miss once, come second, third time.

  Li Qilang was on the stall, took off and jumped, and finally hit the head of the strong man on the eighth time, knocking him to the ground.

   "I'm exhausted!"

  Li Qilang jumped off the stall, threw the bamboo pole, raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, touched the purse in his arms, and walked quickly towards Li Wuya with a grin.

  At this time, the official of Dali Temple also arrived, and quickly rushed to the strong man and tied him up.

  Looking at the Special Chasi people coming across, the officials were all relieved.

  Fortunately, fortunately, the special investigation department caught the prisoner first, otherwise the credit this time would be taken away by the special inspection department.

   "Sister, people in the capital are really earning money, haha, just caught three little thieves, and I earned dozens of taels of silver."

  Li Qilang happily came to Li Wuya.

  Li Wuya smiled and boasted: "My Qilang is capable."

  Gan Fanren next to him has his eyelids twitching wildly. Do you call the Jiangyang thief a little thief? !

  Li Qilang, who had made money, was in a good mood, and said to the waiter in the shop: "Xiaoer, give us another portion of the stewed meat just now."

  Li Wuya added: "Pack it up."

  Li Qilang was puzzled: "Don't you eat here?"

  Li Wuya: "Do you want to be treated like a monkey show?"

Only then did Li Qilang notice that the people on the street were looking at them, he immediately straightened up, and suddenly said: "Don't worship brother too much, brother is just a legend, what should everyone do! "

  The Dali Temple official who had just walked over with the three prisoners twitched his shoulders when he heard this.

  The Special Chas who was one step behind also looked at Li Qilang with a strange expression on his face.

   "Where did this treasure come from?"

   "A half-grown kid dares to call someone else's brother!"

  Seeing that the officials and the men in black came over, Li Qilang was worried that they would repent, so he hurriedly covered the wallets he had just earned.

  The captain of the official dispatch looked at Li Qilang, then at Li Wuya who was sitting on a stool with his back to them, and asked, "Which family are you from?"

  Li Qilang rolled his eyes: "We just entered Beijing today, and we don't have much reputation yet, so it's not worth mentioning."

  Both the captain of the official dispatch and the captain of the Special Investigation Department raised their eyebrows.

   "Listen to your tone, from the north?"

  Li Qilang thought that the northwest is also the north, so he nodded: "He came from the north."

  The eyes of the two captains flickered, thinking of Governor Huaiyuan who was returning to Beijing to report on his duties today, they didn't ask any more questions.

   "Thank you, Master, for your help today, and I will definitely come to the door to thank you in the future."

Um?

  Li Qilang was confused, so he came to the door to thank him? Do they know who he is?

  The prisoner was caught, and the people of Dali Temple were in a hurry to go back to the business, so they left quickly without staying.

  As soon as they left, the people from Special Examinations followed.

  At this time, the people on the street breathed a sigh of relief and began to tidy up the smoky streets.

  The store waiter came over with the packaged braised pork: "Master, your braised pork is ready."

   "How much silver?"

   "I don't want money, the young master took action and caught the bad guy. This stewed meat is a free gift from the shop."

   "That's so embarrassing."

  Li Qilang took the braised pork with a smile.

  Li Wuya stood up, took the broken silver that Li Qilang was about to pay for the food, and put it on the next table: "Sorry, I have to trouble you to buy new cloth and hats again."

  The oil pan was overturned too quickly just now, she couldn't find a suitable shelter, so she used the cloth and straw hats of the people at the table.

"No."

  Put down the money, Li Wuya took Li Qilang away, took a few steps, and threw a piece of money at Gan Fanren who was hiding in the corner: "Your guide fee."

   Soon, the two joined the flow of people and disappeared.

  On the second floor of Shuji Luxiang, every window facing the street is open, and the people in these private rooms can see what happened on the street.

   "Governor of Huaiyuan, Zhao Zhiwen, returned to Beijing today. Those two children belong to the Zhao family?"

   "Nine times out of ten, Zhao Zhiwen is a well-known fierce general, and his heirs are no ordinary people."

  At the door of Chuanji Luxiang, Gan Fanren was holding broken silver in his hand, still a little bit lost.

  He came from the north, and his skills are still so good. Who else could he be if he wasn't from the family of Governor Huaiyuan?

  Oh my god, he almost stole the purse of the governor's son and miss!

   "Sister, we have tails behind us."

   "Do you still remember the roads we took to come to Beishi?"

"certainly."

   "Okay, go back the same way and shake off your tail."
