Chapter 141 The drunkard doesn’t care about drinking
"Then you are indeed very capable. By the way, I forgot to ask, where did you get those tomatoes?" Zhang Haoran asked.
"Oh, I was cooking at the time, and the tomatoes they delivered looked good, so I put two in my pocket, intending to eat them after I was done. Who knew that I'd be here in the blink of an eye.
It was just that I crushed it, and then I didn't take care of it, so it just dried up in my pocket. When I remembered to take it out, there was only a handful of coins left." Gao Yao said.
Needless to say, he must have planted it.
The two of them were not very hungry, so they didn't eat much, just to taste it.
Just as they were paying the bill and leaving, a sloppy-looking man who looked like a scoundrel came in from outside and sat down at his table without saying a word.
"Hey brother, long time no see. Why didn't you inform me when you came? I should have been able to do my duty as a good host!"
As he spoke, he reached out and took the dog meat from the jar, licked it all over and put it back.
"Come on! You're welcome! Eat!"
His actions made the two of them feel disgusted.
Zhang Haoran looked at him with interest and said, "Brother, can you tell me your name?"
"Oh, I am a nobody. I am Liu Ji, the head of Sishui Pavilion." He knew that his tricks had been seen through. He scratched his nose without feeling embarrassed. He just gave in and decided to go for broke.
"Okay, Liu Ji, I've got this. Even if I make friends with you, the remaining wine and meat will be left to you. We have something else to do, so we'll leave first. Enjoy your meal." After Zhang Haoran said this, he stood up and took Gao Yao out the door.
"Brother, what is your name? I, Liu Ji, also acknowledge you as my brother." Liu Ji was so happy that he had met two wealthy suckers. He quickly stood up and shouted outside.
It was obvious that this man was a wealthy man. He thought that if he could get close to him, he would have food and drink in the future.
After hearing this, Zhang Haoran spat on the ground and didn't even turn around to pay attention to him.
Seeing this, Liu Ji could only return in disappointment and happily packed up the wine and meat on the table and took them away.
It’s not that Zhang Haoran hasn’t thought about killing him directly, but he feels that now is not the right time.
He was also thinking of using Liu Bang to send Yi Xiaochuan into the palace.
However, I don’t know what Yi Xiaochuan is doing now. I don’t know whether he will come to Pei County and get to know Liu Bang after I take all his things away.
However, they didn't know that at the same time, on a dirt road ten miles away from Pei County, a man was riding on a horse.
If Zhang Haoran were here, he would be able to recognize at a glance that this person is Yi Xiaochuan.
He still looked the same at this moment, without any sign of embarrassment.
If Zhang Haoran knew, he would definitely be surprised. As expected of the destined protagonist, all his belongings were looted by him, but he still couldn't starve to death.
It is said that when Yi Xiaochuan woke up, it was already dark and pitch dark.
I can't remember how I fainted.
But soon he let out a shrill howl, because he found that he had nothing on him, even the tiger-shaped pendant around his neck was gone.
He didn't care about things like money and property, but the jade pendant was the key to open the treasure box and the key to his return.
But there was no way, and it was late at night. Even if I wanted to find it, I had to wait until daytime.
He had no choice but to stay on a nearby tree and endure the night. Yes! He endured the night because he fed mosquitoes all night.
After finally making it to daybreak, he hurriedly climbed down from the tree and began searching the area where he had fainted, hoping that he had accidentally dropped the jade pendant nearby.
But he was disappointed, there was not even a hair around.
But later he thought that his valuables were missing, and it must be that a thief passed by and saw that he was unconscious, so he stole his valuables, including the pendant, and even took the horse away.
Yi Xiaochuan was very annoyed, but he had no choice but to continue on his way. He had nothing on him now, and if he didn't find someone to help him as soon as possible, he might starve to death here.
Fortunately, God was kind to him and he ran into a group of thieves who were robbing people on the road.
After all, he had learned some martial arts from Xiang Bo, and was able to fight with Xiang Yu and easily defeat him in no time.
After robbing some horses and looting some money, they continued on their leisurely journey.
With his head lazily supported by his hands, he looked at the earthen city wall of Pei County not far away, wondering if he could meet the legendary person this time.
If you meet him, you must make friends with him no matter what.
After calming down, he staggered into Pei County.
At this moment, Zhang Haoran and Gao Yao had also chosen a location, and after the negotiation, they returned to Lu's Mansion.
In the evening, Lu Gong said he wanted to discuss something with him, so Zhang Haoran went straight over.
After entering, he saw that Lu Gong had set up a banquet, and couldn't help but smile and said, "Hey, Uncle Lu, what's the mood today that you want me to accompany you for a drink?"
"Hahaha, Young Master Zhang guessed right. I want you to have a couple of drinks with me. I just don't know if Young Master Zhang will give face to an old man like me?" Lu Gong laughed so hard that even his eyes narrowed.
"No way! Lu Gong asked me to drink with you, so there is no reason for me to disobey!" Zhang Haoran did not hesitate and sat down to the side of the lower seat, behind the table filled with wine and food.
Since the tables in that era were low, people sat on their knees, but Zhang Haoran felt uncomfortable, so he simply sat cross-legged.
"Hahaha, I wonder if Mr. Zhang has been living comfortably at home during this period?" Lu Gong stroked his beard.
"Well, thanks to Mr. Lu's kindness, I have been living quite comfortably these past few days. Food is served and clothes are provided for me without much effort. Especially the two Miss Lu, they were so enthusiastic that I almost couldn't resist." Zhang Haoran said with a smile.
"Hahaha, that's good, as long as I haven't neglected you, young master. Come, have a drink with me first." Lu Gong raised his glass to signal.
"Okay! I'll keep you company!"
After the two of them drank several rounds in a row, Zhang Haoran put down the wine bottle and said, "I don't know why Lu Gong is so happy today? Can you share something with me so that I can have some fun too."
"Hahaha, of course!" Lu Gong raised his hands and clapped his hands twice.
The door was pushed open, and Lu Zhi, wearing a golden feather dress, walked in with a graceful figure.
Zhang Haoran was stunned: "What's this, Miss Lu?"
Lü Zhi bowed and said, "Thanks to Master Zhang for saving me during my journey. I have not had the time to thank you properly these days. My father specially arranged a banquet today just to thank you properly.
However, drinking alone would be too boring, so I came here to dance for you to cheer you up."
After Lu Zhi finished speaking, she bowed to him again and said, "I hope you won't despise me, young master."
It has come to this point. If I refuse, it would be really inhumane.
Zhang Haoran held her hand and bowed, smiling and saying, "It is my honor to be able to appreciate your dancing. How can I say that I despise you? I am afraid that you will be troubled."
“Hahaha…Okay! Zhier, since Master Zhang has agreed, let Master Zhang see your dancing moves.” Lu Gong stroked his beard happily.
