"Come, come, come! We are guests from afar, and the place at home is small. Please put down your gifts first, and I will find a place for you to sit!" Du Dapao led Bai Leman, Black-footed Chicken and others into the house.
The Du family's house was indeed very small, and there was no way a dozen or so people could fit into such a big place, so some of the big guys just stood outside, and there were only five people in the house, including the white scabies and the black-legged chickens.
"To be honest, who would have thought that you would come here in the middle of the night. Those who didn't know it would have thought that you and A Xiao had a grudge and were here to seek revenge!"
"How is that possible, Brother Pao! We all respect Inspector Du so much!"
"Yes, we are all too busy during the day, so we stayed at night! I didn't want to disturb you, I'm really sorry!"
"I'm not sorry! I'm not sorry! I'm sorry that you sent so many gifts. How do you say that, no reward for no merit! You should take these things back!" Du Dapao picked up a gift and handed it over. .
"Brother Pao really knows his stuff, this is a top-quality tiger whip! It's taken from the Siberian white tiger from Gui Lao!" Bai Diaoliu said with his fists in hand.
"Huh?" Du Dapao hurriedly took back the gift, "Cuilian, our guests have been waiting for a long time, please serve tea first!"
…
"Why is there no movement?"
"Are all the Du family dead?"
"It's so pitiful. I didn't expect us to help collect the bodies!"
People gathered at the end of Qianshixia downstairs and stretched their necks to look upstairs, lamenting the misfortune of the Du family.
Dao Youming even sniffed and said, "This is what happens when you are too lazy!"
"You can't say that!" A Shuibo came out of nowhere, "I used to think highly of my handsome boy Xiao Xiao. He is hardworking and studious. He was hired as a detective at a young age. It's a pity that he was so lucky. , He cannot sustain such a great blessing---"
"Yes, there are times in your life that you must have, but there are no times in your life, so don't force it! This is how Xiao Xiao's life should be, don't force it!" Mrs. Qinglin shook her head.
Others echoed.
When the Du family started to prosper, they were envious and jealous. Now that the Du family is unlucky, they feel an indescribable joy in their hearts, but they can't express it, and they feel uncomfortable.
"Maybe not. These people look very fierce, but they are not necessarily bad people." Uncle Shangen pinched his chin and said, "Ah Xiao, I have seen him grow up, and he doesn't look like that short-lived person!"
"Tiao, these people came here in the middle of the night. Are they not seeking revenge or are they here to give gifts?" Dao Youming said contemptuously.
"Yes, have any of you ever seen someone come here to give a gift in the middle of the night?" Uncle A Shui also said, "If so, I will kneel down to him immediately!"
The words have not yet been spoken---
"These are all gifts from us, so you must accept them!"
"Yes, Brother Pao! You don't have to accept the silk and satin, but you must accept the ginseng and bird's nest!"
Du Dapao happened to send Bai Diaoliu and the others downstairs, but Bai Diaoliu and the others refused to take the gifts back.
Neighbors, you look at me and I look at you, their eyes widened!
That fellow Taoist Ming was even more shocked, "What the hell?!"
Du Dapao looked at the gifts and wanted to keep them, but his wife Li Cuilian said that if he kept these things, he would not go home.
Du Dapao was heartbroken: "It's not that I won't accept it, it's just that... you won't get rewarded for your efforts!"
"How could it be?" Bai Lili took a step forward and held Du Da's gunner's hand, "I just fell in love with Brother Pao when I met him! I heard that you used to sell soap. It just so happened that before I became rich, I made washing powder. !”
Du Dapao's eyes lit up: "Seriously?"
"Of course it's true!" Bai Lili pointed to his scalp, "I contracted this disease at the chemical factory! Hey, it's a long story... Anyway, Brother Pao and I are destined to be together, and you will be the big brother from now on. , I’m the younger brother, and since we are all good brothers, it’s appropriate to give me something, right?”
"Well, I should!"
"Okay, come on, bring the gift upstairs!"
Just as Du Dapao was about to stop him, Black-footed Chicken stepped forward and called him brother-in-law: "Brother Pao, from now on you will be the boss and I will be the junior! It makes sense for the junior to give you something to replenish your health, right?" "
"Uh, reasonable!"
"Come here, give me my gift!"
Seeing the gifts that had been moved down being moved back again, Du Dapao didn't know what to say.
Now the gifts are a small thing, but the big thing is that Du Dapao accepted thirteen or four younger brothers in one breath, many of whom he didn't even remember their names.
Uncle A Shui, Dao Youming, Uncle Shan Gen and Sister Qing Lin looked at the scene in front of them and felt like they were dreaming.
Uncle Ah Shui pinched his armpit, "Ouch, it hurts!"
Then Ah Shuibo remembered the poisonous oath he had just sworn, so he coughed and ran away unprepared.
He is so old, yet he still kneels down!
…
"Honey, I'm sorry! I didn't mean it, and I don't want to accept these gifts, but it's hard to refuse kindness. My good brothers---"
Gifts were piled up all over the room, and there was no place to stay. His daughter Du Yongmei happily looked through the gifts. Du Dapao knelt in front of Li Cuilian with a frown on his face, begging the other party not to kick him out.
"Good brother? I know, what are their names? We know each other so well just once, how dare you accept such an expensive gift?!" Li Cuilian held a rolling pin and pointed at Du Dapao's nose.
"They are called White Diarrhea, Black-footed Chicken, and one is called Pork Rong. I can't remember the rest!"
"Fight on the street!" Li Cuilian wanted to beat Du Dapao to death with a stick, "You accept it without knowing it clearly. What if they ask A Xiao and A Xiao can't do it?"
"No way, Ah Xiao is a detective after all. If you can help, please help!"
"You still say? What if they let A Xiao kill people and set fires, and help commit crimes?"
"Our Axiao is so smart, he will definitely use his tricks to catch them all!"
"Catch them all? Then you can keep these gifts for yourself?"
"Honey, you think too much." Du Dapao's eyes were spinning wildly, and he said in his heart: "This is a good idea. I like it very much. I like it!"
"I'm going to attack you!" Li Cuilian threw away the rolling pin, startling Du Dapao, "I think you can't be saved! Kneel down first, and you are not allowed to go to bed tonight!"
"Okay, I will kneel until dawn! Wife, please calm down!" Du Dapao quickly begged for mercy.
Li Cuilian went to sleep angrily.
Du Yongmei wanted to see the gift for a while longer, but Li Cuilian dragged her away, "What ghost are you looking at? You can't pull it out when you see the eyes!"
Seeing his wife going to sleep in the back room, Du Dapao breathed a sigh of relief, wiped away the cold sweat, and looked at the gifts all over the room, such as ginseng, deer antlers, and tiger penis---all good things!
Du Dapao secretly moved his knees, reached out and opened a box of American ginseng, picked out a small piece with his hand and stuffed it into his mouth, "I have to kneel down all night to increase my energy!"
Chewing ginseng slices in his mouth, Du Dapao looked at the room full of gifts and began to feel melancholy again: "Xiao, the house is too small! I wonder if anyone has given me a big house? Hey, forget it, you can't be too greedy!"
Du Dapao said as he took out the ginseng again. This time he didn't pick it with his hands, but took a big bite.
