Chapter 54
The three people who were drinking were startled. Old Tang used the alcohol to look at the man who was leading the way and said, "No one in our restaurant has a surname of Du. If you want to find Brother Du, you are afraid you will find the wrong place!"
The sick Yuchi was stunned: "My brother said he was opening a restaurant next to Longmen Town Avenue. Could it be that it wasn't here?"
What Mr. Tang was most annoying about was to mention the restaurant opposite, snorted, and ignored the three of them again.
There was no caterpillar in the hall where there was only one servant, two old men and women, and two scholars, and none of them could fight. The fierceness couldn't help but start. As soon as he rolled up his sleeves, he was about to go forward and fight.
Tong Dalang hurriedly grabbed it, dragged it behind him, and said to the three people sitting and drinking, "I'll invite you! The next few people have just arrived in Longmen Town from another place, and they only know that the person they want to join is Du, and they have a restaurant here. I wonder if it's this one?"
Seeing Tong Dalang speak so gently, Qibengji said, "The owner of the restaurant in Longmen Town has only one opposite. You are wrong to come here. If you want to join the family, just go to the opposite side."
The sick Yuchi was shocked: "Although my brother has a well-off family, he doesn't have much spare money to open such a restaurant. It's almost as if it's a little shabby here. Brother, have you not messed with us?"
After hearing this, Qi Benji was a little displeased: "What did I do if I have nothing to do with you strangers?"
The caterpillar stretched out his head from behind Tong Dalang and said viciously: "Who is a foreigner? Our brothers were born in Luoyang and grew up in Luoyang. They have been rampant in the city for more than ten years. What are you talking nonsense?!"
The caterpillar-free temper made Tong Dalang feel headache. He was sick Yuchi's old brother, so he could not say anything serious, so he had to bow to the three of them: "Thank you for your advice, our brother has disturbed you!"
Seeing the three of them going out together, Old Tang shook his head repeatedly: "Du Er on the opposite side is not a kind person. In front of the yamen in Henan County, they all make friends with people from all walks of life and stealing. Look, there are three people who come here, but one of them looks like a serious person? Alas, why do you meet such a neighbor?"
Zhong Gu and Qi Benji hurriedly persuaded Mr. Tang to drink together, and turned the topic apart.
The sick Yuchi and the other two left the restaurant. After walking two steps, they reached the opposite side. They looked up at the carved beams and painted buildings. There were colorful buildings in front of the door. The guests entering and leaving were either wearing silk or silk, and the sound of silk and bamboo was vaguely heard.
After a while visiting the door, the sick Yuchi said, "This is my Brother Du's restaurant? When he was working in Henan County, he didn't have much spare money and asked us to be filial from time to time! Why did he suddenly create such a wealthy and noble temperament? From the beginning of the year when he said that he bought a restaurant here, he never looked for us old brothers again. It turned out that he refused to recognize others after he became rich!"
The caterpillar said carefully: "Brother, this Du is now a member of the Ministry of Public Security. I think he won't recognize you anymore. Can we still go in and look for him? Don't come in front of him, be excluded by him, and lose your brother's face."
"Why don't you go in? The Du surnamed Du was in the yamen and was able to do things smoothly with the help of us brothers. It's not that easy to not recognize me now! Even if we don't take us in, we will have to worry about it!"
As he said, the sick Yuchi would first break into the Cailou.
All three of them came out of the Guangwu Mountain Quarry, dressed in shabby clothes and had dirty faces. As soon as they entered the Cailou, the prostitutes sitting on both sides exclaimed in surprise, turned their heads to cover their faces, and some covered their mouths and noses.
The caterpillar was so disgusted by a group of radiant little ladies. They felt hot all over. They wanted to find a hole in the ground and crawl into Tong Dalang beside them: "Brother shouldn't be fighting for a while. Don't have the kiln clothes and big silver, otherwise we would be glamorous, so how could we be as embarrassed as we are now?"
Tong Dalang said lightly: "Buddha fights for a stick of incense, and people fight for a breath. A real man stands tall and strong, so what kind of gold, silver and wealth are you going to do? I, Tong, will hit you with one punch and one kick, and there is no need for others to give alms!"
Without caterpillars, he stuck out his tongue and complained in his heart that he was obviously a beggar, but he still pretended to be a prince. This Tong Dalang has some ability, but with this temper, how could he be able to make it? No wonder he was kicked out by his brothers.
After passing the Cailou, before entering the gate, the two servants came out from somewhere, stood side by side in front of the three of them, and said sarcastically: "Three guests, our restaurant is well-known in the neighborhood. They are all good wine and dishes, but there are no leftovers."
The sick Yuchi said, "You three are so pickled and splashed, and you can see the people down and call out the owner of your restaurant!"
The servant on the left said coldly: "Our eyes are not inferior to people, but if we look at dogs, we will naturally be inferior. Don't blame me for not telling you that this restaurant is an industry in Henan County. You dare to make trouble here and catch your skin in the yamen!"
The sick Yuchi rushed up in his heart and was about to have anger. When the caterpillar pulled his clothes, he whispered: "Brother, the people will not fight with the officials, and he also said that heroes will not suffer any loss. When it is time to bow their heads, don't take any bad luck."
Seeing this caterpillar-free person, he would bully him, and when he saw the strong person, he would lose his bones. Tong Dalang looked down on him from the bottom of his heart, stepped forward, bowed to the two servants and said, "Two little officials, we are here to vote for a good brother. They all say that there is a restaurant in Longmen Town now. I just ask you one thing, is the owner of this restaurant surnamed Du? If not, we will turn around and leave!"
The two servants looked at each other and muttered to themselves. The owner of their restaurant is in front of the yamen in Henan County. People who deal with each other are not particular, and they have all kinds of people. Could these three people in front of them really have an old relationship with the owner?
After hesitating for a while, a servant said, "Report the names of you three, and I will report it to you. If the master wants to see you, he will naturally let you in. If he says he doesn't see you, then stay away from our door as soon as possible!"
The sick Yuchi had no choice but to report his name forward and said to the servant: "These two are my brothers. Just go and tell the master that I was sick Yuchi back to Luoyang and come to join him."
A servant turned around and left, and before leaving, he said, "You can wait under the eaves over there, don't block the door of our restaurant. If there are a few people here, the guests will not come in when they see them!"
Looking at the servant's back, the sick Yuchi cursed secretly. The man was under the eaves and had to bow his head. The three of them had to stand under the eaves next to the eaves with the remaining servant.
In the master's room on the second floor, Du Er frowned when he heard the servant talk and asked him, "What do those three people look like?"
The servant talked about the appearance of the three of them. Seeing that the master was unhappy with them, he added fuel to the fire and told them how they were so indulged. He almost said that he was just three beggars, so he started with two steamed buns.
Du Er pondered and said nothing. Yuchi Shang was a hero. He used to gather a few brothers by the Luo River and had a good time. He was very sensible in his work. He never caused a big disaster, steal or cheated some money. Even if he failed, he was not serious. He was just going to the yamen to scold him and at most he beat him up. The last time he bullied Zhang Shierlang was nothing, but he just met Xu Ping who came to Luoyang to take office, supported the Zhang family, and sent him out. He used to give him convenience in the yamen and took him a lot of money, but now he was not easy to turn against him.
But now is different from the past. How can the staff in a restaurant of such a big one provoke these idle men? If you have a yamen to support me, you are not afraid of someone bullying me. What should I do if I raise a few idle men?
Seeing that the owner was not talking, the servant was obedient and hurriedly said, "Come to our restaurant, I saw these three people coming out of the shop opposite Mr. Tang. Could it be that they also have old friends with them? I think it was because Mr. Tang didn't accept it, so he came to our restaurant."
"Don't talk nonsense. I know the details of this person and will never have anything to do with Mr. Tang no matter what. I think I think I am the same as before. I can only buy a restaurant like Mr. Tang, and then I can only go there." Speaking of this, Du Er's eyes lit up. "Yes, I really have a place to use them here! Go out quickly and let them see me in the guest room next to you!"
Du Er suddenly changed his mind. The servant, the monk, was confused and did not dare to ask, so he had to respond and leave the door.
When they arrived at the restaurant, the two servants whispered to each other and bit their ears for a while before they said to the sick Yuchi and the other two: "For the good of you three, the master made a wish to do good deeds in front of God today, and see you in the guest room. Follow me upstairs, remembering the way to cover up your down-and-out appearance, don't disturb the guests!"
The sick Yuchi thanked him, but he felt so angry that he felt so angry that he thought that he would meet the brother of the Du family after a while, and that he would definitely look good at these two villains with low eyes. Only when they arrived there would they know their sick Yuchi's methods.
But I didn't know that these servants were welcomed and sent to each other, and they were the best at looking at people's expressions. The servants who went in had already seen that the master was not enthusiastic about these three people, and they were afraid that they had other thoughts when they saw them, so they looked at them.
When I entered the restaurant, I looked around without caterpillars, and saw that everything was novel. Those good things and the delicate little ladies accompanying the guests were almost about to drain the water.
When he arrived at the second floor, the servant led the three of them to the owner's living room, stood outside the door and stretched out his hand: "You can wait inside. After the master finished his important tasks, he will come to see you."
The three of them entered the living room. The servant coughed outside the door and said unabashedly: "This is all the things that the master loves, and it is very precious. Don't touch and touch it randomly. If you accidentally get it broken or dirty, I will take it for you."
The sick Yuchi and Tong Dalang snorted coldly and walked towards the chair.
