Xu He went home, and Wu Decao was also clamoring to come back with him.
There was no other way, Xu He could only ask Xie Liangcai to help him say hello to the doorman.
Fortunately, Wu Decao followed Xu He and did not run around, so the doorman let them go after getting Xie Liangcai's guarantee.
As soon as they arrived at the rental yard, Sister Gu took Xu He to show off her work today.
It turned out that today she was learning to cook from Juaner.
I personally made a braised fish dish for Xu He.
When Xu He saw the delicious braised bream on the table, he looked at Sister Gu in disbelief: "Here, is this cooked by my sister?"
Gu Hengbo wrinkled his nose proudly: "Of course!"
Xu He grabbed Sister Gu's hand nervously and said, "Did you get scratched by the rain drum when you were killing fish?"
Sister Gu was so embarrassed that she pulled her hand back and said, "Juan'er killed the fish!"
When Juan'er heard this, she was secretly happy!
Xu He was embarrassed, then smiled and said: "Look at how well the fish is cooked. My sister cooked the fish so well for the first time. She is quite talented!"
Sister Gu's face turned dark: "Juan'er started the fire too!"
"Ahem!" Xu He flattered him all wrong.
But he didn't panic. He sat down and took a piece of fish and put it into his mouth. The aroma of autumn oil and a hint of sweetness, and the surrounding side dishes of mushrooms, winter bamboo shoots, and fresh vegetables were added: "This meat is so fresh. These mushrooms and winter bamboo shoots..."
Sister Gu sat dejectedly next to Xu He and got sulky: "Juan'er told me this too!"
Xu He nodded and gave a thumbs up to Juan'er and said: "Juan'er, your skills are really good. The key is to teach well. If it were my first time to learn from you, the thing I'd burn would probably be black coke!"
This is not a compliment to Juan'er, this is obviously a favor to Sister Gu.
Women sometimes need to be coaxed.
Sure enough, after hearing this, Sister Gu knew that Xu He was coaxing her.
But what is there between men and women?
Isn’t the purpose of the picture just to make each other happy? As long as you know that the other person cares about you, what else is there to say?
Sister Gu picked up a piece of fish and put it into Xu He's bowl, and said gently: "You have been taking exams for a day and you are not allowed to eat anything. Are you starving? Don't be poor. Eat quickly!"
"Uh-huh, uh-huh, wow, it's so delicious!" Xu He ate happily, enjoying the happiness of spooning with bare hands.
After eating, he went to the backyard, where he usually played and made trouble. He still respected Sister Gu very much. Even at home, he rarely went to the backyard where Sister Gu stayed. He only lived in front with Li Sikui and Wu Decao. In the guest room.
When I came to the backyard today, it was mainly because of the beauty's invitation.
"Sister, what's going on?" Xu He took the opportunity to do something again.
Gu Hengbo slapped off the claws angrily, took out a bag and said to Xu He: "When Juan'er went to Slender West Lake Villa to pack her things today, the previous boss of Guangling Bookstore came there and said he was looking for you! No, Juan'er just Brought him here!"
Xu He squeezed Sister Gu's green-white hands and hummed happily: "He's here to give money!"
Xu He still didn't know what he was doing. He fiddled with Sister Gu's nails and said, "How many!"
"He said it was the dividend from the "Liao Zhai" book! About three thousand taels!"
"Well, more than three thousand..." When Xu He heard the number, he didn't take it seriously at first, but when his empty mind came back to it, he was shocked and said, "What? How much?"
Sister Gu had already guessed his reaction, she pursed her lips and said with a smile: "More than three thousand taels!"
"Huge profits, this is huge profits!"
How long did Lao Zhang and Brother Peng work hard, and how many pairs of shoes did it take to earn three thousand taels?
The cook at Huibin House smoked the pot and spatula. How much money can he make in a day?
A book, without the protection of formal copyright law, actually gave him a dividend of three thousand taels in this short time?
What else is there to be an official?
What else are you reading?
Isn’t it cool for him to plagiarize the ancients?
Seeing him like this, Sister Gu laughed so hard that she said, "Shopkeeper Ji also asked if you had any big works recently. If he saw it well, the bookstore would directly give you a higher dividend!"
"Yes, I will learn about "Jin Ping Mei" on hand, and learn about roasting pig head meat with a piece of firewood!" Xu He blurted out.
Sister Gu asked doubtfully: "What "Jin Ping Mei"? What kind of firewood or pig head meat? Why can't I understand a word of it?"
After Xu He heard this, he calmed down and said: "Ahem, I'm just talking nonsense, but the book is in my mind, waiting for me to find time to write it out!"
Forget about "Jin Ping Mei". Since he knew that some people in this world appeared in the Ming Dynasty in later generations, he should be more careful when copying.
For example, in "Jin Ping Mei", who is Lanling Xiaoxiaosheng?
Someone has said that it is Wang Shizhen, the leader of the literary world.
This alliance leader is probably a person of this era, and he was born in Taicang Prefecture, Suzhou Prefecture. He is not far from Hailing. If he is found to have plagiarized, his face will not look good. If someone comes to Hailing to kill him, He pointed at Xu He's nose and scolded him: "You kid copied my pornographic article!"
Think about that picture, it’s so beautiful that I dare not look at it!
But counting the days, Shi Naian should have died long ago. "Water Margin" has not been heard of being circulated in this world. It must have been in this era. Either this person did not appear, or his works have disappeared. Caught in the tide of the times.
After all, Shi Naian and Wu Xingbang, the second assistant, were both from Xinghua, Nanzhi. If there were rumors, Hailing, which was so close, would have been heard of.
The birthplace of Wu Chengen, the author of another masterpiece "Journey to the West", is not far from Hailing.
He is from Shanyang County, Huai'an Prefecture, but counting the days, he is either still young or not yet born.
In addition, in order to coax the children, he had already recorded some "Journey to the West" before. I can't help but feel embarrassed, Mr. Wu!
Just as Xu He and Sister Gu were chatting with each other, a carriage carried the two of them into the city from the west gate of Yangzhou.
The carriage drove directly to the back office of Tongpan Yamen. After stopping, the servant said: "Mr. Beiming, we have arrived."
Li Zhijie heard the commotion and came out with his wife and children. When he saw the carriage, he approached and said, "Brother Ziyu, we're here, you can get off the carriage."
At this time, the curtain of the carriage was opened, and a strong smell of alcohol directly choked Li Zhijie and took a step back!
A young man walked out of the carriage of the horse. The young man was supporting a thin and dejected middle-aged man.
Li Zhijie took a look and realized that this person was his friend Xie Kun?
"Brother Ziyu, why have you become like this?"
I saw that Xie Kun, who was originally high-spirited and handsome, now looked like a disabled person. His withered cheeks were sunken and his eyelids were all black and blue. A gust of wind blew his robe to stick to his body. One year, this originally healthy body seemed to be supported only by bones.
"Brother Ziyu! Why are you doing this?" Li Zhijie burst into tears!
