Cangzhou monster story

With nothing to do, Boss Meng sat behind the counter and dialed his abacus.

The drinkers who come to drink sit together in twos and threes, ordering a jug or two of wine and a plate of peanuts, drinking and chatting.

"I heard that the Qian family added a dowry, but it can't be used up in a lifetime." Someone was amazed.

Someone next to him immediately agreed, "Then you have the ability to marry."

"I want to marry, but Master Qian doesn't like me." The man retorted.

"How do you say that?" Boss Meng interjected curiously.

When the man saw Boss Meng interjected, he immediately came over and said, "Boss Meng, you don't know. The Qian family said that the girl is beautiful as a fairy, she is not a county magistrate, and the chief officials don't marry. We are ordinary people, how can we look at it?" superior."

"Master Qian is really a shrewd master." Someone shook his head, "If you have money, you want power again."

"Don't you just want to trade your daughter for power? It's different from selling your daughter." Some people were indignant.

"It is said that the Qian Mansion is haunted by ghosts." Boss Meng said meaningfully.

Immediately changed the topic again.

"That's right, there was a son-in-law of Chenglong Kuai earlier, who is said to be the son of the county captain's mansion." Someone in the know said immediately.

"Oh, what happened after that?"

The man lowered his voice and said mysteriously: "It is said that the son of the county Wei's mansion went to Qian's mansion to see Miss Qian, but he was frightened to death by something before he was picked up by his family. go back."

"That's probably because he's epileptic and insane. It's up to the Qian family to do something." Someone said with a sneer.

Everyone in the hall laughed, and the person who spoke at the beginning immediately retorted, "Okay, okay, how do you explain the matter of the son of the Zhongzhen general's family later?"

"What happened to the young master of General Zhongzhen's family?" The people who didn't know hurriedly asked.

The person who had just been refuted immediately became proud again, "You don't know that." The person who spoke took a sip of wine without haste.

"Speak quickly, speak quickly."

The man cleared his throat, "It's said that Mr. Qian saw that the county captain's mansion could not be climbed, so he came up with the idea of ​​the Zhongzhen general's family, handed the greeting card to the Zhongzhen general's family, and went to the Iceman. Talking about matchmaking. General Zhongzhen is also a lover of money. After seeing so much dowry, if there is anything he would not accept, he agreed on the spot.

Later, when the young master of Zhongzheng heard about it, he went to Qian's mansion to stay for another night.That night I went home terrified. "

"This is a bit strange." Everyone echoed.

"Well, the fact that the Qian Mansion is haunted by ghosts is not groundless."

"That's right, the Qian Mansion has done something wrong, otherwise why would it be so unlucky."

"You guys don't know. It is said that this Miss Qian came out out of nowhere when Mr. Qian was not making a fortune. Some people say that she picked it up. Who knows."

"No wonder, I don't cherish so much now."

"Boss Meng, what do you think of this matter?"

"Boss Meng has great powers, and this matter will definitely be solved in your hands."

Boss Meng ate a peanut, shook his head and said, "I'm afraid this Miss Qian is not willing to be a pawn, so play tricks by yourself."

"Boss Meng is right, who knows about this kind of thing."

Everyone drank again and talked about other things.

After seeing off the last drunken guest, A Ling swept the peanut shells all over the floor with a broom, and said while sweeping, "This Qian Mansion has become a strange story, and it's been talked about in the streets and alleys."

Boss Meng sat behind the counter to settle the accounts, his abacus crackling, "What a strange story, I told you to scare those timid people."

"You're so sure, you've seen it before." A Ling retorted.

"Your boss, I haven't seen anything." Boss Meng finished the last calculation, stretched his waist, rubbed his shoulders, "Okay, close the door."

After sweeping the floor, A Ling quickly stepped forward to close the shop.

Just when the door was closed and was about to be locked, a hurried call stopped her, "Boss Meng! Boss Meng!"

A Ling pushed open the door suspiciously, and raised her eyes to see Li Wenqin running over in a hurry, "Boss Meng, don't close the door, Boss Meng."

Boss Meng got up and walked from behind the counter to the door, and greeted him, "Mr. Li, why are you here?"

Li Wenqin walked into the tavern in three steps at a time, and hastily waved his hand to ask A Ling to close the door, "Close the door, close the door."

Then he rushed to the table and poured a cup of tea that hadn't been taken away, drank a cup, and said, "Brother Meng, can I stay here tonight?"

Boss Meng has a gentle smile, and he is kind and kind, "Don't talk about one night, it will be done in ten nights."

Li Wenqin immediately smiled, "Okay, brother Meng, it's my great fortune to meet you."

Boss Meng said strangely: "However, after all, Brother Li has always been in Wanhualou, why did he come to my place to spend the night?"

Speaking of this, Li Wenqin looked distressed, "Don't mention it, do you still remember the Miss Qian family I told you about last time?"

"Remember, remember."

"My father is crazy and wants me to marry her. How dare I marry her, I would rather die than follow her. In the end, he tied me up and insisted on sending me to Qianfu. I refused to give in and ran out. He knew that I had been I was in Wanhua Building, so I took someone to tie me up, I was desperate, so I had to come to you."

After finishing speaking, he said to Boss Meng: "By the way, do you have any food? I've been running away for a day, and I'm really hungry."

Boss Meng nodded, "Yes, yes, please."

Get up and lead him into the backyard.

Li Wenqin completely forgot the embarrassment just now, and looked at the small courtyard with great interest, "Boss Meng is really a gentleman, and the small courtyard is also very elegantly tidied up."

"Don't dare, Meng is just an ordinary person."

Li Wenqin saw the small door connecting the tavern and the backyard of the hospital, and ran over curiously and asked, "Where does this lead to?"

"This used to be a hospital."

"I didn't expect Boss Meng and Dr. Zhang to have such a good relationship. The yards are connected."

"It's okay, it's okay." Boss Meng asked A Ling to ask Aunt Wang for some food while coping.

"Mr. Li, this way please." He said and led him into the east wing, "The humble house is simple, please make do with it."

Although the small wing room is not big, it is tidy and tidy. Mr. Li is very satisfied, "Okay, thank you."

"Then you rest first, the food will be here in a while, I will go find two jars of fine wine, and I will not return tonight if I am not drunk." Boss Meng said, and went out to train wine.

A Ling brought some dishes from Aunt Wang, and went into the room to put them on the table for him. She lowered her eyes and set the dishes seriously.

Li Wenqin sat at the table and looked at her, and said with a smile: "Girl, you really look familiar, have I seen you somewhere?"

A Ling rolled her eyes in her mind, where, it must be that time in Wanhualou.On the face, he said softly: "Mr. Li was joking."

Seeing her bowing her head and speaking softly, Li Wenqin couldn't help being moved.
