"Okay, okay - I'm not in a hurry, what are you in a hurry for?"

Seeing that the commotion was almost over, Yinzhen, who was almost forgotten in the corner by the battered crowd, finally got up, and unceremoniously flicked the top of the old ten's head: "I made the locust powder , I was the one who sold it first, and when the sky fell, it hit my face first, what kind of fire are you following here?"

"Old Ninth, why are you still saying that the wind is cool——" Elder Brother Shi subconsciously hopped his feet and yelled back, but he came to his senses only halfway through his words, stopped talking, rubbed his forehead and said in a low voice: "Yes Ah, obviously you sold it first...then you are not in a hurry, what should you do if something goes wrong?"

"This time the plague was carried by my brother. Do you think I don't know what's going on here?"

Yinzhen sneered disapprovingly, but suddenly beckoned them to come over, and lowered his voice pretending to be mysterious: "To tell you the truth, this plague has nothing to do with locusts or anything, but It's not a natural disaster, it's someone secretly doing something..."

As soon as his words fell, Yinhu's eyes jumped suddenly, and he subconsciously scolded in a low voice: "Speak these words outside, so you won't be afraid to let others listen, and you will be accused of spreading rumors!"

"Isn't there no outsiders here, so I just said that casually—besides, if it's a rumor, the person who should know it knows it in his heart, and there's no need to argue with me."

Yinzhen poked his neck and replied in disbelief, and didn't give this brother any face at all. He flicked his sleeves and sat back on the chair, ignoring him.The eighth elder brother's expression froze for a moment, then patiently calmed down again, got up and followed, and gently patted the ninth younger brother who was getting more and more tempered: "Okay, I just said something more to you , I’m also afraid of bringing you into trouble—if you don’t like to hear it, at most I won’t say it next time, so why are you so angry?”

"I'm not angry with you, brother-in-law—I'm just angry that Brother Seven and Old Ten don't think about me."

Yinzhen responded with a cold face, and then continued with a snort: "At the beginning, I was selling locust powder here to make money, but the old ten had to rush up to grab the meat together, and even tricked Brother Seven into coming in. .In the end, no one ate the meat, but now they think the soup is poisonous, so they come here crying and screaming—what did we do, aren’t we together?”

"Look at you—why are you getting so angry? You didn't say you wanted to partner with you back then. Isn't it different now from then..."

Elder Brother Shi blushed from his stinging words, overtly and covertly, and responded with a guilty conscience. He shyly slumped to his side and muttered something in a low voice, and poured him a cup of tea in a flattering manner.Yinzhen took it and took a sip, then put his hands aside without saying a word, and the old ten coaxed him for a long time, finally dispelling the chill on his face.

Seeing that the cloud on Lao Jiu's face finally turned clear, Yinhu turned around with a sigh of relief.Seeing that Yinyou was still standing awkwardly in the middle, he quickly walked over, shook his wrist with a smile and said softly: "Brother Seven, don't take this matter too seriously today. We usually call Those who fight and fight, but no matter what, they are all brothers, and when it comes to critical times, everyone will help the other—don’t you think so?”

"I don't want to take care of so many things. I just want to go back to Shengjing to take care of my banner affairs, train my soldiers well, and relieve Huang Ama's worries."

Yinyou looked at the friendly and gentle smile on his face, lowered his head slightly, and replied sternly, and broke his hand out of his grip involuntarily: "I don't know what your ideas are, and I don't want to think too much about it." No matter. But how Brother Wu treated us brothers back then, you should all know in your hearts, even if you are all grown up now, and each has your own thoughts, you should always remember the affection for those dim sums back then--I am now My son just wanted to ask, it’s enough to know that it’s okay, you’re busy, I won’t bother you.”

"Seventh Brother's words touched my heart, I'll go see Seventh Brother off."

Yinzhen laughed and joined in the fun, quickly caught up with Yinyou's pace, and went out with him.The old ten's face was a bit embarrassed, he hesitated for a while, and then went to the side of the starling who was standing silently, and tentatively whispered: "Mynah, did I get into trouble again today..."

"When will you stop causing trouble? You don't have to take it to heart, and learn more from Lao Jiu in the future. He has grown a lot more than you recently."

Yinhu replied in a low voice, and patiently adjusted his collar for the younger brother.Yin'e stood obediently on the spot and let him take care of him, his usual stubborn expression suddenly showed some emotion, he clenched his fists and said in a rough voice: "Brother, my old ten is not a person who does not remember gratitude At the beginning, I remember the kindness that Fifth Brother treated me, but I dare not forget your kindness to me. People say that it is easy to add flowers to the cake, but it is difficult to give charcoal in the snow. When my mother died, no one cared about me, only You are willing to take care of me, only the concubine Liang remembers to mend my clothes... No matter what they say, I will always follow you."

"Look at what you said, it's all in the past, why do you still remember so clearly?"

Yinhu smiled warmly, patted his shoulder in relief, pinched his eyebrows and sighed wearily: "I'm a little tired today, I want to rest early, you should go back and rest first. The day of Qiu Wei is coming, and the arrangement below should be done as soon as possible, tell your disciples to be safe, and don't let someone catch you, you know?"

"You don't need to worry about this matter, myna, it's not the first time for them. They have been out of business for so many years, and they all have their own regulations and scale. They can't go wrong."

Old Ten slapped his chest loudly, and accepted the matter with confidence, then leaned over and retreated, and went back to his own house.Yinhu did not go back to rest as he said, but went back to the table and sat down. After about half an hour, an ordinary-looking servant hurried in from outside, leaning over to beat him. Called Qianer: "Master, you have been waiting for a long time."

Yinhu nodded slightly, took a sip of tea, put it aside and said slowly: "How are you doing, where did they go?"

"Returning to Master, Jiu Ye said that Qi Ye had never been back, so he dragged Qi Ye around the market all the way, and said that he would invite him to dinner, and took him to Zhiweilou, saying that he would not be drunk. Not coming back... This servant is afraid that I will wait too long, so I will come back and report to you first, if you are still not at ease, this servant will go back to Zhiweilou to follow you."

"No need, let's go down first, and I'll tell you if I have anything to do later."

Yinhu waved him off with a wave of his hand, rubbing the teacup in his hand thoughtfully, with a complex gloomy light in his eyes - what Lao Jiu said today always made him faintly flustered, he was not sure about this Did the younger brother really know something, or did he just bump into it casually.Lao Qi is just a worthless person, so there is no need to be too vigilant, he asked people to follow these two brothers, he just wanted to know if they were going to the fifth brother's house, but right now these two people seem to be in the same place. He didn't have any intentions in the past, could it be that he was thinking too much, this time it wasn't something set by the fifth brother, it was really just a coincidence?

The eighth elder brother here is still thinking hard in the mansion, but he doesn't know that the other end Yinzhen is dragging the seventh elder brother swaggeringly towards the Zhiwei building, but stops before entering the door of the restaurant.Rubbing his chin and looking up at the sky, he suddenly lifted his clothes and sat down on the street stall, he sneered disapprovingly and said: "You idiot, dare to stare at Master Jiu for a while, I don't know that Master still has eyes in the sky what?"

"What stalking—someone following us?"

Yinyou's expression changed slightly, and only then did he understand why this younger brother didn't mention a word to accompany him to Fifth Brother's place, but could not help but drag him around endlessly: "How do you know...they don't follow now Yet?"

"Of course Dai —— discovered it when he took you out."

Subconsciously, Yinzhen wanted to show off Mr. Dai's ingenuity, but he felt that something was wrong when he said the words, so he changed his words without changing his face, and pointed to the sky mysteriously: "You don't know, When I came over, I asked my nephew to lie in ambush outside, and it was watching for me from the sky all the way out of the two of us. How can those rats who are native chickens and dogs hide from its eyes..."

"..." Yinyou looked at the proud ninth younger brother with a strange expression, subconsciously shivered, hesitated for a moment, and then boldly said in a low voice: "You... nephew, why are you on top?"

"Look—you saw it when you were a child, why don't you remember it when you turn around?"

Yinzhen winked at him mysteriously, untied a delicate copper-cast small wine pot from his waist, took out a small whistle and blew it towards the sky.Within a short while, I heard a clear and long eagle cry from far away in the sky, and a huge sea dongqing plunged down towards the place where the two of them were sitting, flapped its wings and landed skillfully on the ground. On the other side of the bench where Yu was sitting: "Chirp!"

"Come on, let me introduce you again, my brother's second child, Liufeng——Liufeng, this is your seventh uncle."

Yinzhen introduced each other solemnly, raised his hand and patted Liufeng's head, but when he turned his head, he was slapped in a false gesture, and he quickly smiled and raised his hands to show his innocence, and then moved to the side: "Our nephew has a big temper, don't be surprised, he'll be fine after drinking."

It's strange to say that such a majestic Haidongqing was stabbed down from the sky for nothing, and the shopkeeper seemed to be surprised, and his expression was a little calmer than that of Yinyou who was quite frightened: "Yo, Jiuye is here today. Master Liufeng is here—is it still the same?"

"As usual, give Uncle Qi a plate of egg white mutton tail, and two cages of three fresh siu mai."

Yinzhen unscrewed the wine bag and skillfully fed the wine to Liufeng, and pretended to bow to Seventh Brother who was still dumbfounded in front of him, laughing and whispering flatteringly: "Seventh Brother, the snacks here are well prepared. Okay, let me treat you right here——Zhiweilou is my brother's place, I want to talk to you there, and I can't hide a word from him..."

"What are you hiding from Fifth Brother——didn't you tell me on behalf of Fifth Brother?"

It was only then that Yinyou faintly realized that he might be on a pirate ship, and frowned slightly as he looked at his younger brother vigilantly.Yinzhen sighed with a worried face, tilted his head helplessly and said, "What can I do? In my brother's eyes, I am still a naive little kid, and I dare not let him know that I am In fact, I already knew everything. When you go back, don’t tell my brother what I am doing, just say that you thought of it yourself, and learn the song that Lao Ba and Lao Shi sang to my brother—— And don’t say that I stole my nephew, they kept saying they wanted to give him a sobriety, and if I find out later, I’ll secretly feed him, it’s another two beatings..."

Yinyou looked at the ninth younger brother in front of him with a complicated expression, nodded subconsciously, and felt some sympathy for no reason: "The fifth brother will still beat you? I remember how good he was to us back then, and he hugged you every day to coax you." ..."

"How should I put it—after all, at that time, I didn't have the ability to make my brother want to beat me up..."

Painfully summarizing the history of blood and tears of getting into trouble and being beaten, Yinzhen wiped away a handful of bitter tears, hugged Liufeng's neck and rubbed vigorously.After drinking, Liufeng's temper has always been very good. After so many years, his drinking capacity has also increased day by day. He is no longer at the same level as before, but he still honestly does not struggle, just letting Yinzhen ravage him.Yinyou, who was sitting across from him, was very envious. He held his breath and carefully stretched out his hand to touch it, but was mercilessly yelled at by Liufeng, who was so frightened that he quickly withdrew his hand: "Your nephew yells. I!"

"That's your nephew too, why sue?"

Yinzhen waved his hands disapprovingly, and seeing the shopkeeper bringing up the siu mai, he squeezed one and blew on it, before feeding it to Liufeng.Yinyou has been hungry for most of the day and hasn't had time to eat. It's so easy to see something edible, but before he can eat one, he sees most of the cage go into the belly of his cheap nephew. Inside, he couldn't help but slapped the desk and said angrily: "Old Jiu, are you so embarrassed to invite me to dinner?"

Yinzhen wanted to tease him on purpose, but when he saw this, he smiled complacently. He was about to speak, but his eyes suddenly fixed behind Yinyou, as if he had seen a ghost in broad daylight, and he opened his mouth to say no. Speak up.

"What's the matter?" Yinyou turned around in a daze, only to realize that there was a man in black behind him at some point. He only felt vaguely familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere before, but he couldn't remember it for a while.Just as he was thinking about it, the man in black clasped his fists at him and saluted him, and said in a warm voice with a smile: "The carriage is ready, please come back to the mansion with the seventh elder brother and the ninth elder brother, the master and the fourth elder brother are at the mansion , waiting for the two masters to go back for dinner."

"Wenqu..."

Before Yinyou could realize the identity of this person, Yinzhen whispered angrily, with a gloomy look in his eyes: "Tell me, my brother actually doesn't know anything, you I found it myself..."

"Since elder brother Jiu hid Liufeng in the lantern and brought it out, the master told us to follow."

Wen Qu mercilessly shattered his last hope, and took a new cage of siu mai and a plate of egg white sheep tail from the store, and put a small piece of broken silver on the table: "Actually, this The small shop is also a place where we often rest, and the shopkeepers are all our own people—it’s okay if you don’t bring any money next time, as long as it’s recorded in the account, the mansion will send someone to pay the bill every month.”

"..." Yinzhen had already lost the strength to feel surprised, and lied weakly on the table, hugging the table with tears in her eyes, suddenly felt a little hard, raised her head and said, "I won't go back, Anyway, it’s impossible for my brother to chase here and beat me up!”

Wen Qu thought for a while in silence, then suddenly took out a piece of good raw beef and threw it out.After all, Liufeng is still a bird of prey, and drinking and burning wheat is just a small snack for chatting for fun. With a clear cry of excitement, he spread his wings and rushed towards the piece of beef.The bench lost the counterweight at one end without warning, and Brother Jiu, who was sitting on the other side, felt his feet go limp, and before he could recover, he sat down firmly on the ground.

When the dejected Jiu elder brother finally regained his senses, he sat involuntarily in front of the room full of elder brothers, blinking his eyes wanting to cry without tears, everything was ready and he only needed another beating .

"Fifth Brother..."

Seeing the desperate look on this younger brother's heroic sacrifice, Yinyou couldn't bear it after all, and tentatively tugged on the clothes of his fifth brother: "Xiao Jiu is also kind, so don't beat him up this time..."

"You can't make a jade without carving it. Sometimes it is useful to cut it a little bit."

Yinqi smiled calmly, picked up a chopstick dish for him, and picked up an egg white sheep's tail and took a bite.Although it has been cooled, the egg whites on the outside are slightly crispy, and the bean paste inside is also delicate and soft. It is sweet but not greasy in the mouth, and it still makes people feel quite comfortable.

It was because he liked the dim sum made by the owner of this restaurant that he snatched it out of Xie's back kitchen and brought it all the way from the south of the Yangtze River to the capital, where he opened a small tea stall beside the Zhiwei Building. All the troubles in this most prosperous part of the capital could not escape the changes of his little Jiuer. No matter how slow his elder brother was, he had already faintly noticed the clues.However, this brat is smart enough, and his talent for understanding people's hearts is not bad, but after all, he is still too young, and he is always easy to get carried away. What a disadvantage, he has arranged for someone to guard him secretly.I thought it would be all right to wait for him to slowly and completely open up, but who knows that today this stinky boy is so courageous that he dragged Xiao Qi to hide it from him, but he had to teach him a lesson to improve his memory.

Seeing that the beating was doomed to be impossible to escape, Yinzhen rolled her eyes, decided to find a way out for herself, smiled and flattered her and leaned over and whispered: "Brother, your body is just a bit better. If I ask you to do it yourself, I'm not afraid of pain, I'm afraid I'll exhaust you..."

Every time when Yinqi has no time or energy to do something, he will ask Tanlang to take action on his behalf, but it is impossible for Tanlang to beat him hard, at most it is just a few times that should be done in a proper manner He put on a show, howled a few times and passed away.Seeing Yinqi nodding his head thoughtfully, Yinzhen was secretly proud of his wit in his heart, when he heard his elder brother's solemn voice: "That makes sense—fourth brother, this time you will help I'll beat it."
