Chapter 9 The Boat Girl

The next day, when it was almost lunch, Tian Qi came to the inn where Meng Shaoyuan and his friends temporarily stayed to find them.

Huo Mazi agreed to help, and he had already gone to Shibawan early in the morning.

Several people found a noodle shop and ate the noodles. They were about to go on the road, but Tian Qi looked embarrassed: "Don't follow this lady, please don't go there."

Zhu Yanni was unhappy: "Why?"

"The Yang family's father and son are both famous perverts." Tian Qi hesitated: "Miss, you are so beautiful, I'm worried... Everyone is embarrassed by that time, and it will be difficult to deal with."

Meng Shaoyuan immediately understood: "If you want to stay in the hotel for the time being, if something happens to us, at least one person will report it."

Although Zhu Yanni is not happy, what can I do?

The road to Shibawan is very difficult to walk. Locals say, "Shibawan, Shibawan, and the mountain road is winding and the King of Hell Road."

Yang Xinli did too many bad things, so he was naturally afraid that others would seek revenge, so he specially built his own nest there.

There is only waterway to go.

Huo Mazi has prepared a boat for them.

The one who was raising the boat was a girl of eighteen or nineteen years old, and her name was Huaer.

He has a beautiful face, a big braid, and stands on the boat with bare feet, which has a unique flavor.

"It's so smelly." Hua'er said.

"What? Is it smelly?" Meng Shaoyuan didn't understand.

What's good about smelly?

Tian Qi has lived in Wuxi for a long time and laughed out loud: "She said, let you sit down."

Oh my god, it's really hard to understand.

A few people did it well. The little girl was young and had a lot of strength. She supported her hard and the boat left the shore.

Put down the bamboo pole, pick up the boat, and the boat sways down the water.

Meng Shaoyuan was a little worried: "Little girl, this boat is so small, don't overturn."

"Relax, sir, I'm just a boat in the house, so I can guarantee that the mud is not good."

This is a bird's singing.

If Tian Qi hadn't translated on the side, he wouldn't have understood it.

What she said was "Don't worry, sir, our whole family is on a boat, and we guarantee that nothing will happen."

Although the boat was small and looked shaky, Meng Shaoyuan gradually felt relieved after moving forward.

"Little girl, how old are you?" Meng Shaoyuan was a little bored and asked casually.

“It’s eighteen.”

"You are a little girl, you won't find a husband's family to marry, you'll do this business." Xiang Shounong was a slutty man and asked more.

Huaer's face turned red: "We are on the boat, and our family is poor and we can't afford to buy a pair of shoes. Who can respect us?"

Embarrassing.

Slowly enter Taihu Lake, the water on both sides is vast, the lake and mountains are beautiful.

Fish jumped out of the water from time to time, making people want to plunge into the lake just now.

Meng Shaoyuan saw a bag in the small cabin. When he opened it, he found several green fruits: "What is this?"

A trace of cunning flashed in Huaer's eyes: "Sir, this is the most famous peach in Wuxi. It's so delicious, you can eat one."

Peach?

Yes, my aunt has brought it back to Wuxi before. After taking a bite, it was sweet and glutinous, but it tastes delicious. The problem is, it is not this blue color, and it is not that small yet?

Tian Qi was stunned and was about to speak when he suddenly saw Huaer blinking at him, laughing and crying, and swallowing the words to his mouth again.

"Thank you."

Meng Shaoyuan picked up a "peach" and bit it down.

I'm gonna be!

Bah bah bah bah bah!

What's this?

It was bitter and astringent, and the whole mouth was numb.

Huaer laughed out loud, "Great" as happy as she should be: "Sir, you are so stupid."

Tian Qiqiang held back his laughter and according to the agreed title before: "Boss Meng, you were deceived by this little girl. It's only June now, and the peaches in Wuxi will not mature until August. This is the wild peaches on the roadside!"

ah!

Liu Huanwen and the others couldn't help but laughed "haha".

Contract, accomplish.

Meng Shaoyuan had a bitter face, not knowing whether to cry or laugh.

After all, he was a spy and a captain, but he was deceived by a little girl.

"Sir, don't be angry." Huaer was also afraid of annoying the guests: "I'll sing a play for you."

Meng Shaoyuan forgot the numbness in his mouth: "You can still sing opera?"

"Our Wuxi opera is not as good as those in big cities. I learned it when I was at the temple fair." Huaer opened her mouth and her voice was crisp:

"The tall house corridor connects the green clouds, and you can see it clearly ten miles away from the city. The white jade steps are along the purple gold gate, and the jade lions are divided on both sides. Corals are inlaid on the horse platform, agate is embedded in the horse pier, and gold is illuminated across the river. There is a night pearl as a door lamp..."

Although I can't understand the lyrics at all, Hua'er's voice is crisp, soft, smooth, and light, and has a strong rural atmosphere.

Meng Shaoyuan and others were all immersed in their eyes.

This is "Chang Xi Wen Opera", which evolved from the minor tunes of folk songs in Wuxi and Changzhou areas.

After singing one song, Meng Shaoyuan was the first to applaud: "Okay, okay! Your voice may become a horn when you are a teacher."

"Sir, you know how to joke, we countrymen are singing and playing."

Huaer said as she slowly docked the boat: "Sir, you are here. It's where Boss Yang lives there. We dare not go, so we will wait for you here."

"Oh, it's trouble."

When Meng Shaoyuan got off the boat, he was still reluctant to leave...

...

Yang Xinli's house is built on the top of a hill, backed by Taihu Lake. If you want to go up the mountain, you have to take a detour and go up a winding path.

Setting up a machine gun on it is easy to defend but difficult to attack.

Yang Xinli spent a lot of money to build this house.

At the foot of the mountain, two guys in short jackets stood, with their clothes open and revealing the revolver inserted around their waists. When they saw the visitor, their faces were fierce:

"Stop, I'm blind, I dare to come to Master Thirteenth!"

"My friend, my friend."

A middle-aged man with a pockmarked face hurriedly came down from the mountain: "Thirteenth Master is waiting for them in the house."

Huo Mazi.

Tian Qi stepped forward: "Mr. Huo, thank you for your hard work. These are my friends. This is Boss Meng who comes from Nanjing."

"Boss Meng, I have been looking back for a long time." Huo Mazi clasped his fists: "I just saw your boat coming on the mountain. There was no order from Thirteenth Master here. No one can go up. I can't come down to pick you up now. Come with me, Thirteenth Master is waiting there."

Although the mountain is not high, it is still a bit difficult to get up.

Sure enough, there was a machine gun stand there.

Although it is an old-fashioned Lewis machine gun, just such a guy is enough to make people with bad intentions afraid.

When you reach the top of the mountain, you can see Yang Xinli's disciples walking around everywhere.

How many bad things did this guy do? So scared?

"I heard that the Red Party is back."

Huo Mazi lowered his voice and said, "That year, Yang Shisan and Zou Laoba killed a lot of people from the Red Party."
