It was snowing, the road was slippery, and the carriage was not moving very fast.
When Shi Xiaoliu and the others arrived at the city gate, it was already noon.
After they got off the carriage, they ran directly to the city gate. There were not many people entering the city at this time.
The three of them entered the city and saw that the tea shed at the gate of the city had changed its owner again.
Now an old couple is running the tea shed. It seems that the business is quite good, and the shed is full of people.
Shi Xiaoliu and the others walked to the vegetarian restaurant. When they were about to get closer, they found the waiter of the vegetarian restaurant handing out number plates.
Shi Xiaoliu walked forward quickly. The waiter knew that they were people who wanted to dine, and immediately handed Shi Xiaoliu a number plate.
“Brother, there are no empty tables in the store now.
If you are willing to wait for a while, hold this number plate. When there is space, we will come out here. There were a few shouts on the street."
Shi Xiaoliu looked back at Shi Zelan and Xia Yu, saw them nodding, and reached out to take the number plate.
Shi Xiaoliu and the other three happened to be free to take a walk on the street, so they walked forward. When they got to the street, they happened to meet a group of people blocking the road.
The three of them squeezed in and saw two groups of people confronting each other. Two women were standing in front. Neither of them was willing to take a step back.
At this time, we are in a situation where the public is right and the mother-in-law is right.
The people on the sidelines were all making comments at this time. In short, they were in half-and-half support.
After Shi Xiaoliu and the others listened for a while, they exchanged looks and then squeezed out.
"You said you are a relative of the Pan family?
Haha, I am still a neighbor of the Pan family. How come I have seen you visiting relatives before?"
Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan stopped for a moment. Xia Yu took two steps forward and looked back to see their expressions.
He walked over and whispered: "Yangzhou City is so big, there may not be only one family named Pan."
"Xia Yu, I think the Pan family they are talking about now, This is the Pan family we think of.”
Xia Yu listened to Shi Zelan's words and saw a look of agreement on Shi Xiaoliu's face. He could only stand with their brothers and sisters on the roadside and listen to the quarrel.
“We are from the Pan family’s son-in-law’s aunt’s family, what can you do to your neighbors?”
“Pan’s son-in-law?
Oh, you are from the village outside the city. A person from the aunt's family of the handsome son-in-law of the Pan family?
I don't think you look alike. You are so ugly, maybe you want to borrow the name of the son-in-law of the Pan family.
Humph, even if the daughter of the Pan family is married today, I will ask her to apologize.
You bumped into me with your eyes, and I didn’t say anything to you. Instead, you scolded me for blocking the road. "
"Did I hit you on purpose?
It’s because you didn’t have eyes to walk towards me and let me bump into you. You damn fat woman, you were so full of flesh that I almost fell down. ”
Shi Xiaoliu pulled Shi Zelan back, and Xia Yu followed.
When the three of them arrived at the vegetarian restaurant, the waiter was already calling the number, and called several times, just as Shi Xiaoliu and the others arrived.
The waiter looked at their number plates and said: "You guys wait for a while, I will call to the left and right for a while."
The waiter walked half a street to the left carefully and called I called the ranking number several times, but no one responded. .
He called the ranking number several times to the right, but no one answered.
He came over and took the number plate from Shi Xiaoliu’s hand: “You go in to eat first.”
Shi Xiaoliu and the other two entered the vegetarian restaurant. The table at the end was empty, and it was just cleaned up at this moment.
When Shi Xiaoliu and the others were halfway through their meal, there was a commotion outside the vegetarian restaurant: "Waiter, we've been waiting in line for so long, why are there still no vacancies?"
"Oh, it's you. I've called you several times, but no one has responded. Please wait a little longer. There will be an empty table this time, so you can go in and eat."
< br>“Boy, you definitely didn’t call us loudly, we were standing on the street over there.”
"I called over there several times, but you never responded to me.
When the customers behind you heard my call, they all took their number plates and came to eat in the restaurant."
There was a commotion at the entrance of the store. Just as a customer finished his meal, an empty table became available.
The host came out and invited the noisy guests to have a meal in the vegetarian restaurant.
After they sat down, they kept mumbling: "The waiter just now is not clever at all, he is just as stupid as the fat woman who was quarreling."
After hearing this, Shi Zelan asked Shi Xiaoliu and Xia Yu in a low voice: "Do you think that woman is fat or a little rounder?"
"A little rounder, and the other one is too thin. She looks My health is not good."
Shi Xiaoliu answered straightforwardly, and Xia Yu smiled on the side: "Brother Xiaoliu, you are very concerned about other people's health."
The three of them. At this time, people were already drinking rice soup after the meal, and were ready to finish the rice soup. When the packed meals were delivered, they got up and left.
When Shi Xiaoliu and the others left the vegetarian restaurant, they saw the party who had been quarreling entering the vegetarian restaurant, and their family looked particularly angry.
"We are relatives of the Pan family. We should visit the Pan family."
"Stop talking, the person just said that the Pan family has many relatives.
We went like this , others may not welcome us in. "
"If you believe the fat woman, if she were a neighbor of the Pan family, she would be too embarrassed to go out and walk around in my place." br>Shi Xiaoliu and the other two looked at each other. When they were just having dinner in the restaurant, a guest said that Miss Pan, who liked to wear white, was married.
Miss Pan's family searched all over the city for her lover, but to no avail.
The elders in her family made a quick decision to marry her off to the third son of a farmer's family outside the city.
The guest who spoke affirmatively said: "The good-looking children in the farmer's family are not as favored as the strong children.
But after Miss Pan married, she found that the three The son was the one she had fallen in love with before.
The Pan family gave their daughter a generous dowry, and the Miss Pan family lived happily. ”
After Shi Xiaoliu and the others heard what their guest had to say, they remembered the great achievements of this Miss Pan family who searched for men all over the city.
Shi Xiaoliu and the others went to the bookstore and bought books and a few pens.
As the three of them walked towards the city gate, they heard children singing songs on the street.
The three of them listened carefully and found that what was being sung was about Miss Pan’s family.
Shi Xiaoliu and the other three were dumbfounded as they watched the children singing from the street to the end of the street, and passers-by were used to it.
Shi Xiaoliu and the others stopped. They were very curious about this. Isn't the Pan family a wealthy family in Yangzhou Prefecture?
The three of them listened carefully to the sounds on the street, and finally heard someone say that there was a storyteller in the teahouse who praised them.
Miss Pan is indeed a rare rare woman in Yangzhou Prefecture. No wonder she can marry her sweetheart.
Shi Xiaoliu and the other three walked out of the city gate with confused expressions. When renting a carriage at the city gate, the coachman saw their expressions.
He was a little worried and asked: "Are the three of you being bullied by others in the city?"
Shi Zelan shook her head, and she told the coachman what she had heard. (End of this chapter)
