When Chu Yaozi saw Second Master Xu looking at him, he covered his face and chewed some toothpaste twice, and then said slowly: "I say Second Master, you know that our brothers...the two of us have not been doing this hanging pole business for a long time. Already."
When Chu Yaozi said the word "brother", he deliberately used a particularly vague tone, as if he was afraid that Tailor Li would hear it.
And after saying this, Chu Yaozi intentionally or unintentionally turned his head to look at Tailor Li who was sitting on the bed. Seeing that Tailor Li did not look at him and had no intention of speaking, he smiled bitterly and then said: " To be honest with you, Mr. Xu...brother, I..."
"If you want to talk about money..." Mr. Xu interrupted Chu Yaozi. After taking a puff of cigarette, he said calmly: "I know the price of you two brothers back then. If you convert it to today... I I’ll give you double the amount.”
Xu Erye’s words obviously touched Chu Yaozi’s heart. He grinned, and just as he was about to speak, Tailor Li beside him suddenly spoke: “Second Master, the two of us took this order! But the money... We don’t want it!”
After Tailor Li said these words, Chu Yaozi felt a "bang" of thunder on the top of his head.
He hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop Tailor Li and said, "Second Master has already promised to give you money, why don't we want it?"
Tailor Li turned to look at Chu Yaozi, with an indescribable look in his eyes, like anger and disappointment. After a long time, Tailor Li said word by word: "Have you forgotten that Mr. Xu helped Are you done with us?"
"That was to help you..." Chu Yaozi said immediately after hearing this
: "It was you who the second master saved in the fire, and he didn't save me! You don't need the money, but I have to keep it!"
After saying this, Chu Yaozi turned to look at Second Master Xu and said with a mean smile: "Second Master, if Old Li Tou doesn't want it, can you give me all the money?"
Mr. Xu didn't say anything when he heard this, he just took a puff of cigarette lightly.
Seeing that Mr. Xu didn't speak, Chu Yaozi panicked a little. He was afraid that Mr. Chu would change his mind because of Tailor Li's words, so he wanted to say something, but before he could say anything, Tailor Li said coldly. Said: "Regarding the fire that year, Erye really only saved me... But don't forget that you started the fire... Don't forget why the police didn't investigate this case later. One thing...if it hadn't been for the Second Master, if the Second Master hadn't looked out for Master and his old man, would you still be happy and happy this year? Also, back then, someone cut your waist..."
"Okay! Okay! Okay!" After hearing Tailor Li talk about the time when his waist was cut off, Chu Yaozi immediately reached out and interrupted Tailor Li, "Old Li Tou... Okay, I'm done with it. ! I’ll take this order, and I’ll take it for Bai Gan too! Okay?”
When Tailor Li heard what Chu Yaozi said, he didn't say anything more. Instead, he turned to look at Second Master Xu and said calmly: "Second Master, the two of us have taken this order!"
When Mr. Xu heard this, he cupped his hands and said, "Thank you very much!"
Tailor Li returned the gesture slightly and said, "Second Master, you're too polite! But..."
….
Mr. Xu didn’t wait for Tailor Li to finish what he said, he stood up with a smile and said calmly
He said calmly: "I understand the rules of hanging poles! The Nine Curves and Thirteen Swords only deal with yin, not yang... Although you no longer do this business, you can't break the rules!"
After hearing what Second Master Xu said, Tailor Li sat on the bed and bowed deeply, then said, "Thank you Second Master for your understanding!"
When Mr. Xu saw Tailor Li giving such a big gift, he didn't stop him. He just looked at him and asked calmly: "How long do you need?"
Tailor Li thought for a while and was about to speak when Chu Yaozi beside him suddenly opened his mouth and said, "Twenty minutes is enough! Come back after twenty minutes and I will give you a satisfactory answer."
Hearing this, Mr. Xu nodded slightly and said, "Okay! I'll wait for you two brothers for twenty minutes."
After saying this, he turned to look at Miss Yao San beside him and said, "Let's go, Miss San! Let's not waste anyone's time!"
Miss Yao San is very knowledgeable and also
He didn't say anything, but slowly stood up and followed Mr. Xu and Lao Liu out of Tailor Li's house.
After leaving the door and walking out of Tiepizi Alley, Miss Yao San asked: "Do you trust them so much?"
Mr. Xu didn't say anything. He just reached out and took out a cigarette, but he didn't light it. He just looked at the cigarette in his hand and was stunned.
Miss Yao San didn't seem to notice Second Master Xu's state, and still frowned and said: "Second Master, I shouldn't have said this... but I think the two of them are in a weird state."
Mr. Xu still didn't answer, but Old Liu beside him asked, "What's weird?"
Miss Yao San glanced at Lao Liu, and then said, "Don't you think the two of them are acting?"
「
acting? "Lao Liu frowned slightly and said, "What do you mean?"
Miss Yao San said: "It means literally."
When Lao Liu heard this and was about to open his mouth to say something, Mr. Xu suddenly said: "No! There is something wrong with these two guys!"
Miss Yao San heard this sentence suddenly pop out of Xu Erye's mouth, and immediately asked: "Look...!"
Miss Yao San's words originally meant to say, "I just said they have a problem," but she only said two words, and Mr. Xu next to her had already rushed out.
Although Mr. Xu was very old, he was still very flexible with his hands. He turned around and ran into the iron pipe alley.
Although the entire distance from the entrance of Tiepizi Hutong to the Li's Tailor Shop in the innermost part is less than thirty meters, the aisles are full of debris. Thinking about it, it would be impossible to spend three to five minutes each. thing.
But at this time, Mr. Xu no longer cared about so much. He lowered his head, shortened his body, and rushed to the door of Li's tailor shop in a few quick steps.
At this time, the door that was originally ajar had been firmly closed. Seeing this, Mr. Xu did not knock on the door. He raised his foot and kicked open the door of Li's tailor shop with a "bang".
As the door was kicked open, a strong smell of blood hit his face.
After smelling the smell of blood, Mr. Xu suddenly felt his heart tightening and secretly screamed: "No! Grandma's... even after all, something happened in the end! What a bad move!"
Although Mr. Xu kept cursing in his heart, the movements of his feet did not stop at all, and he flashed into the Li family's tailor shop.
But when he enters the house
Finally, when he saw the scene in front of him clearly, even though he had been in the world for nearly forty years, he couldn't help but feel his stomach churn, and he couldn't help but vomited it out on the spot.
