Burp ……”After the wine and rice had been consumed, the greasy fat man contentedly picked his teeth with a toothpick, burping more than one time.
“Is Brother Hu done eating?”Zhu Pingan asked enthusiastically, “Do you need to order a few more dishes?”
“Sloppy ……Burp ……”The greasy fat man picked his teeth and said in a salty manner, saying that he couldn’t help but burp again, if he wasn’t really unable to eat anymore, he really wanted to order a few more dishes.
“Pull back, you are on the table with a hungry ghost cast like, but also sloppy, I see you are like a wolf like a tiger ……”Liu Dazhou couldn’t help but be sarcastic when he heard the fat man’s insalubrious words, and then said to Zhu Pingan, “My lord, there are still so many dishes left on this table, that need to be ordered again.”
“The dishes can’t be eaten, but you can have another jar of wine well, it’s not bad to use it to rinse your mouth and get rid of the grease.”The greasy fat man heard Liu Dazhu’s words, and then rushed to Liu Dazhu grinning out eight big white teeth, shaking his head and said, a kind of mixed virtues, Liu Dazhu will be angry enough.
“Xiao Er, another jar of Shaoxing yellow wine.”Zhu Pingan cheerfully called the shop assistant and added another altar of Shaoxing yellow wine.
The greasy fat man did as he said and rinsed his mouth with the wine before swallowing it back into his stomach.
Liu Dazhou was completely speechless towards the greasy fat man, not understanding why the Duke was so warm and courteous towards this drunkard.
After the greasy fat man was thoroughly drunk and full, Zhu Pingan called for the shop boy to settle the bill.
“Master Gongzi, there is still silver left from what you gave, this is the rest.”The shop chap found the remaining silver to Zhu Pingan, after finding the silver, the shop chap looked at the so many dishes left on the table, he couldn’t help but say, “Master Gongzi, I have said that the small shop has a large amount of dishes, you can order less, look, there are still quite a few dishes left.”
“It’s okay, it’s not wasted, we can pack it away, please pack these leftover dishes.”
Zhu Pingan said with a smile.
Zhu Pingan had been a man of two lifetimes and came from a poor background, he knew the truth of “who knows that every grain of food is bitter”, he had always been frugal and naturally would not waste the leftovers. In modern times, he is used to packing, and in ancient times, he also brought this habit over. As for the eyes of others, Zhu Pingan would not care.
“Ahem, my brother still has a watchdog at home, these leftovers are not as good as letting my brother bring it back.”
At this time the greasy fat man spoke up, stretching out his oily paws, stroking his eight-bearded beard, looking at Zhu Pingan and said.
The dog you are talking about, is it one metre eight tall, weighing one hundred and eighteen, with an eight character beard at the corners of his mouth and a greasy ……
Zhu Pingan smiled and nodded, “Good.”
“Do you have a watchdog in your house? How come we didn’t hear a dog barking when we knocked on the door?”Liu Dazhou questioned.
“Oh, my family’s dog is playful and wildly accustomed, it went out to play at that time, so you guys didn’t encounter it.”
The greasy fat man still didn’t blush after Liu Dagger’s questioning and casually gave a reason.
Then, the greasy fat man began to instruct the shop assistant to pack the leftovers, and the altar of Shaoxing yellow wine that had just been opened was not spared either.
“Ugh, aren’t you bringing food for the watchdog, why are you packing wine? Does your dog drink too?”
Seeing this, Liu Dazhou couldn’t help but call out to Fatty and questioned once again.
“Oh, think about it, what am I raising a watchdog for, naturally I’m raising it to watch over the house, it’s impossible to serve it as a master. You say it’s so playful, going out to the wild and not keeping house, isn’t that unseemly? I will naturally go back to educate it a good meal, break its dog’s legs, so that it grows a long memory ……”
The greasy fat man casually explained.
“What does that have to do with you packing yellow wine?”Liu Dazhou shook his head as he listened to the fat man’s explanation and asked.
“I broke its dog’s leg, of course I have to use yellow wine to disinfect and bandage its wounds ah, after all, I am a compassionate dog lover, beating to beating, scolding to scolding, the love and care is still to love and care.”
The greasy fat man made a flurry.
“You still call yourself a dog lover like this?”Liu Dazhou was successfully brought off topic by the greasy fat man.
“Of course, playing is pro scolding is love well, I love dogs like children, of course, like under the stick out of filial piety son as well educate it …….”The greasy fat man is again a flurry of God, will Liu Dabao Kan dizzy.
“Brother Hu, do you know what Mr Xu Wei Xu, who is also a tenant, is doing today, and why he is not in the mansion.”
On parting, Zhu Pingan narrowed his eyes and enquired.
“Oh, you said that dead fat guy next door ah, he had something to go out today. As for what to go for, then I don’t know, he didn’t tell me either.”The greasy fat man returned without blinking his eyes.
“Oh, does Brother Hu know when he will return?”Zhu Pingan asked again.
“May return today, may be tomorrow, may be three or five days, may be ……I’m not sure about this one.”The greasy fat man shrugged his shoulders and spread out his two hands, indicating that he was not clear about this.
Zhu Pingan and Liu Dazhou followed the greasy fat man back to the mansion he had rented, which was empty, no one else was there.
Zhu Pingan made an appointment to visit Xu Wei again tomorrow.
On the second day, Zhu Pingan took advantage of the noon hour to bring Liu Dazhu to Xu Wei’s rented mansion again. Like yesterday, the mansion still had its doors closed, and they were still bolted from the inside as well.
“Knock knock ……”Zhu Pingan went up and knocked on the door, “Is Mr Xu at home? Is Brother Hu home?”
The mansion was quiet, there were no chickens or dogs barking, and no one responded, as if no one lived there.
“Knock knock knock ……”Zhu Pingan had to go up and knock on the door again.
This time, someone finally responded, and a grumpy crane-like complaint came from the courtyard, “Who ah, early in the morning bam bam bam bam knocking on the door, disturbing people’s beauty sleep, there is no public morality ah ……”
Erm, that’s a bit familiar, wasn’t that how the greasy fat man complained when he knocked on the door yesterday?
This time it was also a complaint, but as Zhu Pingan listened, there seemed to be a burst of excitement, well, yes, it was excitement.
“Dead fatso, it’s still early in the morning, it’s midday and you’re still dreaming beautifully, are you a pig, so sleepy.”Hearing the greasy fatty’s complaint, Liu Dazhu couldn’t help but dislike him.
“Oh, it’s you guys. Come to find the dead fat man next door again, ah ……..I’m having a beautiful dream, in my dream I’m in high school as a lifer and I’m enjoying the Deer Feast, that wine and food is really tsk tsk ……”
After the creaking sound of the door opening, the greasy fat man with bare thighs, wrapped in a bed sheet and topped with a chicken nest head, appeared in the doorway, styled almost exactly the same as yesterday.
As the greasy fat man complained, he squinted a pair of eyes at Zhu Pingan, his eyes flickering with excitement.
“Still a high school lifer, for you to sleep until high noon, you can only dream about it.”
Liu Dazhou was very displeased with the dishevelled appearance of the greasy fat man, hearing his words, he couldn’t help but dislike him.
“Hehe, I’m really sorry for disturbing Brother Hu’s beautiful dream again. Just in time, we haven’t eaten either, if brother Hu doesn’t mind ……”
Zhu Pingan smiled and arched his hand.
Hearing Zhu Pingan’s words, the greasy fat man’s narrowed pair of eyes suddenly slipped round brilliantly, excitedly interrupting Zhu Pingan’s words, “Not too much, not too much, this person of mine ah is just too soft-hearted and won’t reject people ……”
