Fu Guanbao's family entrusted someone to send him to Mr. Zhou. Mr. Zhou owed others favors, so he reluctantly accepted Fu Guanbao.
Because of the oolong incident of Dong Yong, the fake rich second generation, Mr. Zhou is willing to look at Fu Guanbao from an objective perspective.
On the first day Fu Guanbao came to the school, Mr. Zhou called him to his side, intending to inspect his study status.
"Fu Guanbao, come here." Mr. Zhou said gently, "Have you read all the Four Books and Five Classics?"
Fu Guanbao stood crookedly. He yawned in front of his husband and said, "Maybe I have read it!"
Mr. Zhou frowned, "If you read it, you have read it. If you haven't read it, you haven't read it. What do you mean you may have read it?"
Fu Guanbao smirked and said, "Sir, why don't you even understand this? I don't know if the master taught me before, so I probably learned it."
Mr. Zhou clutched his chest, maybe he had read it for this meaning, that is to say, he didn't listen to his master's lectures in class before.
Mr. Zhou sighed, "Go and sit in the back!"
Fu Guanbao said unhappily: "Sir, I want to sit in the first row. My family has asked someone to send money. Why can I only sit in the back?"
Mr. Zhou said angrily: "I am sir, you can sit wherever I tell you to sit!"
Dong Yong suddenly stood up from behind, "Sir, don't be angry, why don't you let the new classmate sit next to me! We are fellow villagers, and we were classmates before. I will take care of you. I think you will get used to Fu Guanbao soon."
Fu Guanbao pointed at Dong Yong with wide eyes and stammered, "You, you, what, why are you here?"
Dong Yong smiled, "Are you so happy to see me? Can't even speak clearly?"
"Who, who is happy!"
Dong Yong went to the front, put his arms around Fu Guanbao's shoulders, and pulled him to the seat. "Let's go! Sit by my side, and I will take good care of you."
Dong Yong was thin and thin, and Fu Guanbao was taller and fatter than him.Dong Yong's arms around him could barely reach his shoulders, but Fu Guanbao seemed to be very afraid of Dong Yong, so he deliberately bent down so that Dong Yong could reach his neck.
Mr. Zhou was secretly amazed when he saw it. Fu Guanbao looked like a bully at first glance. Unexpectedly, he followed Dong Yong back to his seat very obediently, and he never argued to sit in the front row again.
Seeing that Fu Guanbao sat down obediently, Mr. Zhou began to give a lecture.
Dong Yong was sitting there listening to the class seriously, and Fu Guanbao was sitting on his right. He couldn't help twisting his body and looking at Dong Yong secretly with sideways eyes.
During the break, Dong Yong dragged the cushion and sat beside Fu Guanbao, pretending to have a long talk. "Little Fu! When did you move here?"
Fu Guanbao muttered, "I'm older than you."
Dong Yong asked: "What did you say? Speak up!"
Fu Guanbao opened his mouth, and finally bowed his head and said, "Our family just moved here not long ago."
"Why do you suddenly want to move? Did you miss me?"
Fu Guanbao shouted loudly: "Who would miss you!"
Dong Yong said meaningfully: "Huh?"
Fu Guanbao was timid again, he said in a low voice, "My father wants to come here to do business, so my family moved here."
Dong Yong nodded, "So that's the case." After thinking about it, Dong Yong warned him, "Since you are here, study hard, and don't think about bullying your classmates and disturbing the classroom order all day long."
Fu Guanbao said stubbornly: "Why should I listen to you!"
Dong Yong sighed, why didn't this child listen to persuasion?Do you still want me to call Erlang Shen to help out?
He said: "Let me ask you, how much did you spend to study here?"
Fu Guanbao raised his head and said proudly: "Speaking out will scare you! Our family found connections and gave gifts, and we gave away a total of 820 taels of silver."
Dong Yong nodded, "20 taels a year is enough for a family of three to eat for a year. It is considered a luxury for your family to spend more than 800 taels for your study."
"Isn't it? I don't think 20 taels of silver is too much for such a poor gentleman!"
Dong Yong asked: "Do you know how much money I spent to come in and study?"
Fu Guanbao looked at him and said with disdain: "You? I know you. Based on your family's conditions, it would be great if you could send 30 taels."
Dong Yong looked at him kindly, "Silly boy, I will give Mr. 300 taels...gold!"
"Impossible!" Fu Guanbao didn't believe it at all, "I can't sell you for 30 taels, but you can still send 300 taels, or gold?"
Dong Yong smiled slightly, and he shouted at Mr. Zhou: "Sir, how much did I pay for my tuition when I come here to study?"
Mr. Zhou vaguely heard them talking just now, and he immediately said loudly knowingly: "Not much, it's only 300 taels of gold."
Fu Guanbao opened his mouth in surprise, and even the other students in the room looked at Dong Yong in surprise.
Dong Yong said to Fu Guanbao: "Did you see? My tuition is much more expensive than yours. I sit in the back. What right do you have to sit in the front?"
Fu Guanbao stammered, "This, this is impossible..."
Dong Yong said with a smile: "Our family really has no money, but someone is willing to spend money for me! How is it? Are you convinced?"
Fu Guanbao snorted softly, "The money is not yours, why should I be convinced?"
Dong Yong still wanted to tease him, but he had no choice but to finish the rest time and the teacher had to continue the class.Dong Yong pointed to Fu Guanbao, meaning don't leave after school.
The morning class was over, Dong Yong originally wanted to chat with Fu Guanbao, but Fu Guanbao nimbly squeezed out from the other students without even looking at him.
Dong Yong sighed, "How did you slip so fast? At least chat with me for a while."
Dong Yong didn't go home at noon, and Mr. Zhou couldn't bear to watch him eat dry food every day, so he invited him to have lunch at noon.
Mr. Zhou didn't have a wife yet, so he hired an old lady who came to cook for him and clean up the house every day.
When the aunt brought the food, Mr. Zhou moved his chopsticks, and Dong Yong also picked up the chopsticks.He picks up vegetables frequently and chews quickly.Mr. Zhou has just finished one bowl of rice, while Dong Yong has already finished three bowls.
Mr. Zhou: "Seeing that you are thin and thin, and eat well, I didn't expect you to eat so fast and so much!"
Dong Yong said embarrassedly: "I have to eat back 300 taels anyway!"
"Then how many years will you have to eat with me? I'd better return the money to you!" Mr. Zhou asked again, "You and Fu Guanbao knew each other before?"
"Yes, we are fellow villagers. He used to study at Xiaochang Academy, and he bullied me when I first went there! Later, I beat him up, and we haven't seen each other since. I didn't expect to see him again. A little scared of me."
Mr. Zhou laughed loudly, "Look at your small body, and then look at Fu Guanbao, can you beat him?"
Dong Yong said unconvinced: "Sir, you look down on people too much." Although he borrowed the power of God Erlang...
Mr. Zhou pushed his job aside and sighed: "I owe someone a favor. If he insists on sending Fu Guanbao here, I can't shirk it. I don't think Fu Guanbao looks like a student. Now my reputation It must be destroyed in his hands."
Dong Yong found out, Mr. is a very nice person, just because he saves face.He said: "Sir, you are too worried. Whether you are a good gentleman depends on how many good students you have taught, not how many bad students you have taught."
Mr. Zhou is still not very happy, "What you said is also reasonable, but I accepted Fu Guanbao today, and Li Guanbao will come tomorrow. Do you think I will accept it? If I don't accept it, won't I offend others? If I accept it, I will Not reconciled."
Dong Yong nodded, "That's right, you are willing to accept those recommended by others, and you will not give face if you refuse to accept those recommended by yourself. Or... Mister, accept two more good students as soon as possible, and when the time comes, our school will Even if the seats are full, and others still want to recommend students, they won’t be able to sit down.”
Mr. Zhou thought about it, and agreed: "Good idea! I will do as you say. I will move all the books at home to the school, and try to fill the room so that they can't get in!"
Mr. Zhou quickly recruited two new students, and piled up some books and sundries in the school, filling the room to the brim.Even if someone wanted to send students over, seeing that Mr. Zhou's school was full, he had no choice but to give up.
Fu Guanbao made a fuss when he came home from school on the first day, crying and shouting not to go to school.His father's business in Guanjiangkou was not going well. When he was crying, he happened to bump into his father's anger. His father slapped him when he went up, and Fu Guanbao finally came to class aggrieved.
He was still a little afraid of Dong Yong, it was the first time he was kicked by the collar when he was so big.He didn't like to listen to the teacher's lecture, and Dong Yong was next to him, and he didn't dare to make trouble, so he could only play with himself in silence.
It was raining heavily outside that day, some students had family members to pick them up, some students brought umbrellas, and everyone left one after another.In the end, only Mr. Zhou, Dong Yong and Fu Guanbao were left in the school.
Dong Yong was asking his husband a question. After Mr. Zhou finished explaining, he started to eat.He asked Fu Guanbao: "Fu Guanbao, eat at my place at noon!"
Fu Guanbao pouted. He turned his head and said awkwardly, "I'll wait for my family to pick me up."
Mr. Zhou said: "It's raining so hard, your car may have broken down on the way, you can have something to eat with us first, and then go back when the car arrives!"
The brat Fu Guanbao turned his head, didn't nod, and didn't speak.
This made Mr. Zhou angry!Kindly keep him for dinner, what kind of attitude is he!
Dong Yong held down Mr.'s arm, telling him to be calm.
He took out a lunch box made of bamboo from his bag, and this lunch box was made for him by the locust tree spirit!There is also a bamboo bear engraved on it, which is very simple and cute.
Dong Yong pretended to sigh, "Are you really not going to stay for dinner? Sigh! I brought a special dish today. If you don't eat it, my husband and I will eat it all."
Dong Yong opened the lunch box, and inside was a box of chicken cut into pieces. The skin of the chicken was shiny and the chicken was juicy.
The husband asked the cooking lady to put the food in the school, and the hot aroma of the food went straight into Fu Guanbao's nose.
The husband picked up a piece of chicken and dipped it in the dipping sauce. The chicken was shiny and had a sour taste of vinegar.Putting the chicken into his mouth, Mr. closed his eyes and savored intoxicatedly, "Mmm! This chicken is well cooked and delicious! The skin is not greasy, the meat is tender and juicy, very good!"
Dong Yong said: "If you like it, you can eat more. I specially brought this dish to honor you. I don't dare to bring hot dishes, so I have to work hard on cold dishes. As long as the husband is satisfied with it."
Mr. Zhou picked up another piece of chicken, "En, it's delicious! It's rare for you to be filial. This chicken is delicious without dipping it in sauce, and it's very tasty! You must have put a lot of effort into it, right?"
"Yes, sir, this dish takes a lot of work. I didn't go to bed until late last night to stew this chicken. There are many kinds of seasonings in the stewed soup. I punctured the skin of the chicken and the belly of the chicken. Stuffed with a handful of shallots covered in sauce, the chicken is very tasty." Dong Yong took another piece of chicken for Mr. Zhou, "You can have another piece if you like."
The sound of Mr. Zhou and Dong Yong eating has been piercing into Fu Guanbao's ears. Now it is meal time, and he is so hungry that his chest is pressed against his back.He clicked his mouth and quickly swallowed his saliva into his stomach.
Dong Yong held a piece of chicken with the bowl and chopsticks and handed it to Fu Guanbao's mouth. He asked in a seductive voice, "Fu Guanbao, come and have a taste!"
The chicken was right next to his mouth, with the luster of sesame oil hanging on it, and the sour taste of vinegar at the end of his nose. He couldn't help opening his mouth, and Dong Yong quickly stuffed the chicken into his mouth.
"Is it tasty?"
Fu Guanbao nodded obediently.Dong Yong asked again: "Do you want another piece?"
Fu Guanbao nodded again.
"Then don't carry it! Come and eat!"
Fu Guanbao walked over slowly and sat down, his chubby face flushed red, he was a little embarrassed to eat it just now.
Mr. Zhou and Dong Yong tacitly didn't mention his shame that he didn't eat just now. The three of them finished their meal quietly and cleaned up all the dishes on the table.
The carriage of Fu's mansion did break down on the way, the coachman repaired the carriage in the heavy rain, and came to pick up the young master in a hurry.In normal times, Fu Guanbao would definitely lose his temper, but today at noon he had already eaten and drank enough, and he became more open-minded.He casually waved his hand and told the coachman to go back first and pick him up later in the evening.
Because of the meal, the relationship between Dong Yong and Fu Guanbao improved a lot.Later, when Dong Yong made delicious food, he always brought him a portion, and gradually Fu Guanbao became better with him.
Dong Yong discovered that Fu Guanbao had a circle of people and things, and he devoted himself to the people in the circle, accommodating in every possible way.But I'm very rude to people outside the circle, basically it's just how willful I am.
Fu Guanbao happily ran over and said, "Dong Yong, Dong Yong! I got a new treasure, come with me and have a look!"
Dong Yong held up his brush and said helplessly: "I won't go, I haven't finished writing this article yet!"
"Then I'll wait until you finish writing."
Dong Yong said: "After I finish writing, I have to give the article to my husband for comment, and then I have to go home to wash clothes, cook, and clean up the house."
Fu Guanbao said sullenly: "You are so boring, why do you always have so many things to do?"
"Because I have no money! If I had money, I would hire a few long-term workers to work in my field, and hire a few maids to cook for me."
Fu Guanbao said: "You are short of money! I have it! I'll get you some."
Dong Yong quickly refused. If he refused later, Fu Guanbao, an honest boy, would have slipped the silver ingot into his hand.
"Don't mind me! What's the matter if I use your money to supplement the family! Fu Baobao! You are too old, and you should think of a way out. Don't dislike your brother who talks too much. Hehegan. Your father earned you such a big family fortune, if you continue to mess around like this, how will you be able to support yourself in the future!"
Fu Guanbao curled his lips, "You are younger than me, whose elder brother are you! What you say is exactly the same as my father, and my ears are almost callused."
Dong Yong sighed, "It's fine if you don't want to listen, but you have to remember that you can't get enough by relying on others."
Fu Guanbao seems to have listened to Dong Yong's words.From then on, he listened carefully in class and stopped making small moves.It's just that he has poor foundation and no talent in reading. Mr. Zhou and Mr. Dong Yong helped him make up lessons, but with little success.
The days passed quickly, winter came in a blink of an eye, and the Spring Festival was approaching.The little flower of Dong Yong's family has also grown up.
This year, the dry land planted by Dong's father had a bumper harvest. Although the life of father and son was still tight, with Dong Yong's private subsidy, Dong's father inexplicably felt that this year's life was much easier.
Originally, Father Dong was reluctant to kill Xiao Hua and wanted to raise her for a while longer.But Dong Yong said, instead of spending money to buy new year's goods, it is better to kill Xiaohua and keep the meat for himself, so that the new year's goods will be.
The person who killed the pig was a well-known butcher in the village, and if he killed a pig, Dong's father promised to cut two catties of meat and give it to him.
After killing the pig, scald the pig hair with boiling water and scrape it clean.This is a technical job. If it is too hot, the pig hair will not fall off.The butcher quickly scalded the hair off the pig, opened the intestines, and cleaned up the offal.Dong Yong sighed, this kind of work, he really can't do this kind of work.
The rest of the whole pig looked like pork that Dong Yong had been exposed to before. He had already discussed with his father that this pig was given by Xiao Erlang.
Father Dong thought about it, and it was indeed the truth. He asked Dong Yong: "How much do you think is enough for him to eat?"
"Just... just send a rib!"
Father Dong asked, "Will it be a little less?"
"No, there is no shortage of this kind of food." Dong Yong thought, if there is enough food to give away, even sending all the little flowers there is not enough food!Erlang God doesn't care about appetite, but his family has a lot of people!A light roaring dog can clean up the spare ribs.
The butcher unloaded the ribs and handed them to Dong Yong.
Dong Yong took his little flower basket to give gifts to Erlang God.
As soon as he left the village entrance, Dong Yong saw Erlang God waiting there.Dong Yong smiled and said, "Hey! Handsome little brother, are you waiting for me?"
Erlang Shen asked: "Do you still want to go to the Temple of the True Monarch?"
"Go, go, you must go! Little brother, you are very irritable! You can't help being funny at all."
There was no one around, Erlang waved his hand, and a white mist surrounded the two of them. When the white mist cleared, they had arrived at the Zhenjun Temple.
Seeing the familiar Zhenjun Temple, Dong Yong burst into tears instantly.Carrying a small flower basket, he chanted like a poem: "Ah! My beloved hometown! Here, I can eat chicken as I like; here, I can eat meat as I like; here, I have all kinds of food every day. fresh fruits and vegetables. I miss you so much! Guanjiangkou’s kitchen!"
Xiaotiangou was attracted by his voice, it sat on the ground and tilted its head to look at Dong Yong.
Dong Yong said emotionally: "Ah! Xiaotiangou, my most sincere partner, how much I miss you! I have meat to eat with you, but now I leave you, I can't even eat white noodles!"
Xiaotiangou didn't understand what he was talking about, but still said face-saving: "Although I don't know you...but...it's nice to meet you."
Dong Yong was very moved. He put his arms around the neck of the dog and murmured, "I knew it, although you don't remember me, you still have me in your heart. Do you know? Poverty makes me stingy, I gave half a chicken to the teacher, and I felt that I lost a hundred million! Woohoo, roar, you are the best person to me, unlike your master, who has not invited me after reuniting for so long I've been to a restaurant... Hey, eh? Where's your master?"
Xiaotiangou said: "He left when you said the first 'Ah!'."
Dong Yong wiped away the tears that didn't exist on his face, "I acted in vain. Go, roar, take me to the kitchen, and I'll cook something delicious for you."
The Zhenjun Temple is no different from what it will look like a few hundred years later, Dong Yong felt a little embarrassed when he saw it.He put the spareribs in the basket, cooked in front of the stove, Xiao Tiangou was lying on the door of the stove, everything was the same as before.
Blanch the ribs, filter out the blood and dregs, then put the ribs into another clean casserole, put ginger slices, red dates, bay leaves and other seasonings in the pot, wait until the ribs are cooked, put the peeled and cut into pieces For yam, put salt in the pot to season, and put a pinch of coriander and shallots when it is about to come out of the pot.The yam pork ribs soup is ready, the soup is clear and sweet, not greasy.
With the ingredients at hand, Dong Yong cooked a few dishes and mixed a few cold dishes, and the whole table was sorted out.
God Erlang set up a table in his own hall, and he called the Meishan brothers, Xiaotiangou and Nitianying to eat together.
He sat at the head, and Dong Yong sat beside him.
Erlang Shen said: "Let me introduce to you, his name is Dong Yong, he is my friend."
The Meishan brothers looked at each other, Xiaotiangou and Nitianying looked at each other.They never dreamed that Erlang God would have a mortal friend, and brought him to the Zhenjun Temple.
The atmosphere froze for a while, and Erlang Shen would not activate the atmosphere.Dong Yong felt inexplicably embarrassed, so he quickly picked up his wine glass and said, "It's almost the Chinese New Year! I brought a home-raised pork rib and sent it for you to try. Come on, raise your glass, don't gossip, let's Let's go first. Happy New Year, good luck!"
He didn't care about others after he finished speaking, he did it himself first.
Dong Yong shook his head, as if he was quite sober, it seems that he is good at drinking. "Come on! Let's eat vegetables. The pot in the middle is my yam pork rib soup. Let's try my cooking."
Dong Yong's messy way of warming up the scene actually warmed up the atmosphere.Meishan sixth took a sip of the soup and said, "It's really good!"
Everyone nodded, Xiao Tianquan said: "It would be better if it was just meat, without yam and soup."
Ni Tianying said: "You silly dog, can that still be called pork rib soup?"
"You're everywhere, silly bird!"
Ni Tianying hurriedly complained to Erlangshen, "Master, Xiao Tiangou scolded me." Brother Mei Shan hurriedly separated the two of them to appease them.
Looking at the familiar scene in front of him, Dong Yong couldn't help drinking another cup.
Erlang said, "Drink less, you will get drunk easily."
Boss Meishan said: "Second master! I am happy today, what does it matter if you drink a few more glasses? If you drink too much, you can stay here!"
Dong Yong was already a little dizzy, he shook his head, and said obediently: "No! I can't get drunk, I have to go home at night, good boys can't spend the night outside."
As soon as he finished speaking, he fell on the table in a daze.The amount of wine from one pour was successfully upgraded to two pours.
congratulations!
Because of the oolong incident of Dong Yong, the fake rich second generation, Mr. Zhou is willing to look at Fu Guanbao from an objective perspective.
On the first day Fu Guanbao came to the school, Mr. Zhou called him to his side, intending to inspect his study status.
"Fu Guanbao, come here." Mr. Zhou said gently, "Have you read all the Four Books and Five Classics?"
Fu Guanbao stood crookedly. He yawned in front of his husband and said, "Maybe I have read it!"
Mr. Zhou frowned, "If you read it, you have read it. If you haven't read it, you haven't read it. What do you mean you may have read it?"
Fu Guanbao smirked and said, "Sir, why don't you even understand this? I don't know if the master taught me before, so I probably learned it."
Mr. Zhou clutched his chest, maybe he had read it for this meaning, that is to say, he didn't listen to his master's lectures in class before.
Mr. Zhou sighed, "Go and sit in the back!"
Fu Guanbao said unhappily: "Sir, I want to sit in the first row. My family has asked someone to send money. Why can I only sit in the back?"
Mr. Zhou said angrily: "I am sir, you can sit wherever I tell you to sit!"
Dong Yong suddenly stood up from behind, "Sir, don't be angry, why don't you let the new classmate sit next to me! We are fellow villagers, and we were classmates before. I will take care of you. I think you will get used to Fu Guanbao soon."
Fu Guanbao pointed at Dong Yong with wide eyes and stammered, "You, you, what, why are you here?"
Dong Yong smiled, "Are you so happy to see me? Can't even speak clearly?"
"Who, who is happy!"
Dong Yong went to the front, put his arms around Fu Guanbao's shoulders, and pulled him to the seat. "Let's go! Sit by my side, and I will take good care of you."
Dong Yong was thin and thin, and Fu Guanbao was taller and fatter than him.Dong Yong's arms around him could barely reach his shoulders, but Fu Guanbao seemed to be very afraid of Dong Yong, so he deliberately bent down so that Dong Yong could reach his neck.
Mr. Zhou was secretly amazed when he saw it. Fu Guanbao looked like a bully at first glance. Unexpectedly, he followed Dong Yong back to his seat very obediently, and he never argued to sit in the front row again.
Seeing that Fu Guanbao sat down obediently, Mr. Zhou began to give a lecture.

During the break, Dong Yong dragged the cushion and sat beside Fu Guanbao, pretending to have a long talk. "Little Fu! When did you move here?"
Fu Guanbao muttered, "I'm older than you."
Dong Yong asked: "What did you say? Speak up!"
Fu Guanbao opened his mouth, and finally bowed his head and said, "Our family just moved here not long ago."
"Why do you suddenly want to move? Did you miss me?"
Fu Guanbao shouted loudly: "Who would miss you!"
Dong Yong said meaningfully: "Huh?"
Fu Guanbao was timid again, he said in a low voice, "My father wants to come here to do business, so my family moved here."
Dong Yong nodded, "So that's the case." After thinking about it, Dong Yong warned him, "Since you are here, study hard, and don't think about bullying your classmates and disturbing the classroom order all day long."
Fu Guanbao said stubbornly: "Why should I listen to you!"
Dong Yong sighed, why didn't this child listen to persuasion?Do you still want me to call Erlang Shen to help out?
He said: "Let me ask you, how much did you spend to study here?"
Fu Guanbao raised his head and said proudly: "Speaking out will scare you! Our family found connections and gave gifts, and we gave away a total of 820 taels of silver."

Dong Yong looked at him kindly, "Silly boy, I will give Mr. 300 taels...gold!"
"Impossible!" Fu Guanbao didn't believe it at all, "I can't sell you for 30 taels, but you can still send 300 taels, or gold?"
Dong Yong smiled slightly, and he shouted at Mr. Zhou: "Sir, how much did I pay for my tuition when I come here to study?"
Mr. Zhou vaguely heard them talking just now, and he immediately said loudly knowingly: "Not much, it's only 300 taels of gold."
Fu Guanbao opened his mouth in surprise, and even the other students in the room looked at Dong Yong in surprise.
Dong Yong said to Fu Guanbao: "Did you see? My tuition is much more expensive than yours. I sit in the back. What right do you have to sit in the front?"
Fu Guanbao stammered, "This, this is impossible..."
Dong Yong said with a smile: "Our family really has no money, but someone is willing to spend money for me! How is it? Are you convinced?"
Fu Guanbao snorted softly, "The money is not yours, why should I be convinced?"
Dong Yong still wanted to tease him, but he had no choice but to finish the rest time and the teacher had to continue the class.Dong Yong pointed to Fu Guanbao, meaning don't leave after school.
The morning class was over, Dong Yong originally wanted to chat with Fu Guanbao, but Fu Guanbao nimbly squeezed out from the other students without even looking at him.
Dong Yong sighed, "How did you slip so fast? At least chat with me for a while."
Dong Yong didn't go home at noon, and Mr. Zhou couldn't bear to watch him eat dry food every day, so he invited him to have lunch at noon.
Mr. Zhou didn't have a wife yet, so he hired an old lady who came to cook for him and clean up the house every day.
When the aunt brought the food, Mr. Zhou moved his chopsticks, and Dong Yong also picked up the chopsticks.He picks up vegetables frequently and chews quickly.Mr. Zhou has just finished one bowl of rice, while Dong Yong has already finished three bowls.

Mr. Zhou laughed loudly, "Look at your small body, and then look at Fu Guanbao, can you beat him?"
Dong Yong said unconvinced: "Sir, you look down on people too much." Although he borrowed the power of God Erlang...
Mr. Zhou pushed his job aside and sighed: "I owe someone a favor. If he insists on sending Fu Guanbao here, I can't shirk it. I don't think Fu Guanbao looks like a student. Now my reputation It must be destroyed in his hands."
Dong Yong found out, Mr. is a very nice person, just because he saves face.He said: "Sir, you are too worried. Whether you are a good gentleman depends on how many good students you have taught, not how many bad students you have taught."
Mr. Zhou is still not very happy, "What you said is also reasonable, but I accepted Fu Guanbao today, and Li Guanbao will come tomorrow. Do you think I will accept it? If I don't accept it, won't I offend others? If I accept it, I will Not reconciled."
Dong Yong nodded, "That's right, you are willing to accept those recommended by others, and you will not give face if you refuse to accept those recommended by yourself. Or... Mister, accept two more good students as soon as possible, and when the time comes, our school will Even if the seats are full, and others still want to recommend students, they won’t be able to sit down.”
Mr. Zhou thought about it, and agreed: "Good idea! I will do as you say. I will move all the books at home to the school, and try to fill the room so that they can't get in!"
Mr. Zhou quickly recruited two new students, and piled up some books and sundries in the school, filling the room to the brim.Even if someone wanted to send students over, seeing that Mr. Zhou's school was full, he had no choice but to give up.
Fu Guanbao made a fuss when he came home from school on the first day, crying and shouting not to go to school.His father's business in Guanjiangkou was not going well. When he was crying, he happened to bump into his father's anger. His father slapped him when he went up, and Fu Guanbao finally came to class aggrieved.
He was still a little afraid of Dong Yong, it was the first time he was kicked by the collar when he was so big.He didn't like to listen to the teacher's lecture, and Dong Yong was next to him, and he didn't dare to make trouble, so he could only play with himself in silence.
It was raining heavily outside that day, some students had family members to pick them up, some students brought umbrellas, and everyone left one after another.In the end, only Mr. Zhou, Dong Yong and Fu Guanbao were left in the school.
Dong Yong was asking his husband a question. After Mr. Zhou finished explaining, he started to eat.He asked Fu Guanbao: "Fu Guanbao, eat at my place at noon!"
Fu Guanbao pouted. He turned his head and said awkwardly, "I'll wait for my family to pick me up."
Mr. Zhou said: "It's raining so hard, your car may have broken down on the way, you can have something to eat with us first, and then go back when the car arrives!"
The brat Fu Guanbao turned his head, didn't nod, and didn't speak.
This made Mr. Zhou angry!Kindly keep him for dinner, what kind of attitude is he!
Dong Yong held down Mr.'s arm, telling him to be calm.
He took out a lunch box made of bamboo from his bag, and this lunch box was made for him by the locust tree spirit!There is also a bamboo bear engraved on it, which is very simple and cute.
Dong Yong pretended to sigh, "Are you really not going to stay for dinner? Sigh! I brought a special dish today. If you don't eat it, my husband and I will eat it all."
Dong Yong opened the lunch box, and inside was a box of chicken cut into pieces. The skin of the chicken was shiny and the chicken was juicy.
The husband asked the cooking lady to put the food in the school, and the hot aroma of the food went straight into Fu Guanbao's nose.
The husband picked up a piece of chicken and dipped it in the dipping sauce. The chicken was shiny and had a sour taste of vinegar.Putting the chicken into his mouth, Mr. closed his eyes and savored intoxicatedly, "Mmm! This chicken is well cooked and delicious! The skin is not greasy, the meat is tender and juicy, very good!"
Dong Yong said: "If you like it, you can eat more. I specially brought this dish to honor you. I don't dare to bring hot dishes, so I have to work hard on cold dishes. As long as the husband is satisfied with it."
Mr. Zhou picked up another piece of chicken, "En, it's delicious! It's rare for you to be filial. This chicken is delicious without dipping it in sauce, and it's very tasty! You must have put a lot of effort into it, right?"
"Yes, sir, this dish takes a lot of work. I didn't go to bed until late last night to stew this chicken. There are many kinds of seasonings in the stewed soup. I punctured the skin of the chicken and the belly of the chicken. Stuffed with a handful of shallots covered in sauce, the chicken is very tasty." Dong Yong took another piece of chicken for Mr. Zhou, "You can have another piece if you like."
The sound of Mr. Zhou and Dong Yong eating has been piercing into Fu Guanbao's ears. Now it is meal time, and he is so hungry that his chest is pressed against his back.He clicked his mouth and quickly swallowed his saliva into his stomach.
Dong Yong held a piece of chicken with the bowl and chopsticks and handed it to Fu Guanbao's mouth. He asked in a seductive voice, "Fu Guanbao, come and have a taste!"
The chicken was right next to his mouth, with the luster of sesame oil hanging on it, and the sour taste of vinegar at the end of his nose. He couldn't help opening his mouth, and Dong Yong quickly stuffed the chicken into his mouth.
"Is it tasty?"
Fu Guanbao nodded obediently.Dong Yong asked again: "Do you want another piece?"
Fu Guanbao nodded again.
"Then don't carry it! Come and eat!"
Fu Guanbao walked over slowly and sat down, his chubby face flushed red, he was a little embarrassed to eat it just now.
Mr. Zhou and Dong Yong tacitly didn't mention his shame that he didn't eat just now. The three of them finished their meal quietly and cleaned up all the dishes on the table.
The carriage of Fu's mansion did break down on the way, the coachman repaired the carriage in the heavy rain, and came to pick up the young master in a hurry.In normal times, Fu Guanbao would definitely lose his temper, but today at noon he had already eaten and drank enough, and he became more open-minded.He casually waved his hand and told the coachman to go back first and pick him up later in the evening.
Because of the meal, the relationship between Dong Yong and Fu Guanbao improved a lot.Later, when Dong Yong made delicious food, he always brought him a portion, and gradually Fu Guanbao became better with him.
Dong Yong discovered that Fu Guanbao had a circle of people and things, and he devoted himself to the people in the circle, accommodating in every possible way.But I'm very rude to people outside the circle, basically it's just how willful I am.
Fu Guanbao happily ran over and said, "Dong Yong, Dong Yong! I got a new treasure, come with me and have a look!"
Dong Yong held up his brush and said helplessly: "I won't go, I haven't finished writing this article yet!"
"Then I'll wait until you finish writing."
Dong Yong said: "After I finish writing, I have to give the article to my husband for comment, and then I have to go home to wash clothes, cook, and clean up the house."
Fu Guanbao said sullenly: "You are so boring, why do you always have so many things to do?"
"Because I have no money! If I had money, I would hire a few long-term workers to work in my field, and hire a few maids to cook for me."
Fu Guanbao said: "You are short of money! I have it! I'll get you some."
Dong Yong quickly refused. If he refused later, Fu Guanbao, an honest boy, would have slipped the silver ingot into his hand.
"Don't mind me! What's the matter if I use your money to supplement the family! Fu Baobao! You are too old, and you should think of a way out. Don't dislike your brother who talks too much. Hehegan. Your father earned you such a big family fortune, if you continue to mess around like this, how will you be able to support yourself in the future!"
Fu Guanbao curled his lips, "You are younger than me, whose elder brother are you! What you say is exactly the same as my father, and my ears are almost callused."
Dong Yong sighed, "It's fine if you don't want to listen, but you have to remember that you can't get enough by relying on others."
Fu Guanbao seems to have listened to Dong Yong's words.From then on, he listened carefully in class and stopped making small moves.It's just that he has poor foundation and no talent in reading. Mr. Zhou and Mr. Dong Yong helped him make up lessons, but with little success.
The days passed quickly, winter came in a blink of an eye, and the Spring Festival was approaching.The little flower of Dong Yong's family has also grown up.
This year, the dry land planted by Dong's father had a bumper harvest. Although the life of father and son was still tight, with Dong Yong's private subsidy, Dong's father inexplicably felt that this year's life was much easier.
Originally, Father Dong was reluctant to kill Xiao Hua and wanted to raise her for a while longer.But Dong Yong said, instead of spending money to buy new year's goods, it is better to kill Xiaohua and keep the meat for himself, so that the new year's goods will be.
The person who killed the pig was a well-known butcher in the village, and if he killed a pig, Dong's father promised to cut two catties of meat and give it to him.
After killing the pig, scald the pig hair with boiling water and scrape it clean.This is a technical job. If it is too hot, the pig hair will not fall off.The butcher quickly scalded the hair off the pig, opened the intestines, and cleaned up the offal.Dong Yong sighed, this kind of work, he really can't do this kind of work.
The rest of the whole pig looked like pork that Dong Yong had been exposed to before. He had already discussed with his father that this pig was given by Xiao Erlang.
Father Dong thought about it, and it was indeed the truth. He asked Dong Yong: "How much do you think is enough for him to eat?"
"Just... just send a rib!"
Father Dong asked, "Will it be a little less?"
"No, there is no shortage of this kind of food." Dong Yong thought, if there is enough food to give away, even sending all the little flowers there is not enough food!Erlang God doesn't care about appetite, but his family has a lot of people!A light roaring dog can clean up the spare ribs.
The butcher unloaded the ribs and handed them to Dong Yong.
Dong Yong took his little flower basket to give gifts to Erlang God.
As soon as he left the village entrance, Dong Yong saw Erlang God waiting there.Dong Yong smiled and said, "Hey! Handsome little brother, are you waiting for me?"
Erlang Shen asked: "Do you still want to go to the Temple of the True Monarch?"
"Go, go, you must go! Little brother, you are very irritable! You can't help being funny at all."
There was no one around, Erlang waved his hand, and a white mist surrounded the two of them. When the white mist cleared, they had arrived at the Zhenjun Temple.
Seeing the familiar Zhenjun Temple, Dong Yong burst into tears instantly.Carrying a small flower basket, he chanted like a poem: "Ah! My beloved hometown! Here, I can eat chicken as I like; here, I can eat meat as I like; here, I have all kinds of food every day. fresh fruits and vegetables. I miss you so much! Guanjiangkou’s kitchen!"
Xiaotiangou was attracted by his voice, it sat on the ground and tilted its head to look at Dong Yong.
Dong Yong said emotionally: "Ah! Xiaotiangou, my most sincere partner, how much I miss you! I have meat to eat with you, but now I leave you, I can't even eat white noodles!"
Xiaotiangou didn't understand what he was talking about, but still said face-saving: "Although I don't know you...but...it's nice to meet you."
Dong Yong was very moved. He put his arms around the neck of the dog and murmured, "I knew it, although you don't remember me, you still have me in your heart. Do you know? Poverty makes me stingy, I gave half a chicken to the teacher, and I felt that I lost a hundred million! Woohoo, roar, you are the best person to me, unlike your master, who has not invited me after reuniting for so long I've been to a restaurant... Hey, eh? Where's your master?"
Xiaotiangou said: "He left when you said the first 'Ah!'."
Dong Yong wiped away the tears that didn't exist on his face, "I acted in vain. Go, roar, take me to the kitchen, and I'll cook something delicious for you."
The Zhenjun Temple is no different from what it will look like a few hundred years later, Dong Yong felt a little embarrassed when he saw it.He put the spareribs in the basket, cooked in front of the stove, Xiao Tiangou was lying on the door of the stove, everything was the same as before.
Blanch the ribs, filter out the blood and dregs, then put the ribs into another clean casserole, put ginger slices, red dates, bay leaves and other seasonings in the pot, wait until the ribs are cooked, put the peeled and cut into pieces For yam, put salt in the pot to season, and put a pinch of coriander and shallots when it is about to come out of the pot.The yam pork ribs soup is ready, the soup is clear and sweet, not greasy.
With the ingredients at hand, Dong Yong cooked a few dishes and mixed a few cold dishes, and the whole table was sorted out.
God Erlang set up a table in his own hall, and he called the Meishan brothers, Xiaotiangou and Nitianying to eat together.
He sat at the head, and Dong Yong sat beside him.
Erlang Shen said: "Let me introduce to you, his name is Dong Yong, he is my friend."
The Meishan brothers looked at each other, Xiaotiangou and Nitianying looked at each other.They never dreamed that Erlang God would have a mortal friend, and brought him to the Zhenjun Temple.
The atmosphere froze for a while, and Erlang Shen would not activate the atmosphere.Dong Yong felt inexplicably embarrassed, so he quickly picked up his wine glass and said, "It's almost the Chinese New Year! I brought a home-raised pork rib and sent it for you to try. Come on, raise your glass, don't gossip, let's Let's go first. Happy New Year, good luck!"
He didn't care about others after he finished speaking, he did it himself first.
Dong Yong shook his head, as if he was quite sober, it seems that he is good at drinking. "Come on! Let's eat vegetables. The pot in the middle is my yam pork rib soup. Let's try my cooking."
Dong Yong's messy way of warming up the scene actually warmed up the atmosphere.Meishan sixth took a sip of the soup and said, "It's really good!"
Everyone nodded, Xiao Tianquan said: "It would be better if it was just meat, without yam and soup."
Ni Tianying said: "You silly dog, can that still be called pork rib soup?"
"You're everywhere, silly bird!"
Ni Tianying hurriedly complained to Erlangshen, "Master, Xiao Tiangou scolded me." Brother Mei Shan hurriedly separated the two of them to appease them.
Looking at the familiar scene in front of him, Dong Yong couldn't help drinking another cup.
Erlang said, "Drink less, you will get drunk easily."
Boss Meishan said: "Second master! I am happy today, what does it matter if you drink a few more glasses? If you drink too much, you can stay here!"
Dong Yong was already a little dizzy, he shook his head, and said obediently: "No! I can't get drunk, I have to go home at night, good boys can't spend the night outside."
As soon as he finished speaking, he fell on the table in a daze.The amount of wine from one pour was successfully upgraded to two pours.
congratulations!
