After leaving the blacksmith shop, Song Yuehua went to the grocery store and bought a small bow.
The pulling force of this bow does not need to be very strong. It is just right to use it as a toy for Dabao to play with.
After buying these, Song Yuehua also went to buy some food. She first bought five pounds of fresh meat from the butcher stall, and then carried a basket to Baihua Street to buy two bags of flower cakes.
Just as I was about to go back, I saw a group of people gathered at an alley.
Originally, Song Yuehua had no intention of joining in the fun, but when she heard the word "catching a cheating couple", she couldn't help but pause and poked her head into the crowd.
As a result, we saw Erguotou and a man fighting fiercely in public.
It was said that the fight was fierce, but in Song Yuehua's opinion, Erguotou's one or two years of martial arts training were in vain, as all he could do was grab and scratch.
I wanted to just leave, but if I left, I would have no idea what was going on.
"The police are going to arrest the courtesan in Yinghuan Tower!"
Suddenly hearing this voice, the crowd suddenly became lively.
"What has happened to the courtesan in Yinghuan Tower?"
“I don’t know!
“Go and have a look!”
"Go ahead. It's more interesting than a fight between two men."
As they were talking, the crowd ran towards Yinghuan Tower.
There were several scratch marks on Erguotou's face, and the other man's hair was pulled loose. When the fight was fierce, suddenly the upper bodies of both men were lifted into the air, and the two big men were picked up and thrown into the yard.
Erguotou looked up and saw that it was Song Yuehua.
After Song Yuehua closed the door, she looked at the two of them and said, "Tell me what's going on."
The man who fought with Erguotou was named Xiao San. He was a seafarer who just came back a few years ago.
The source of the dispute between the two was a woman named He Xiaowan.
According to Erguotou, He Xiaowan had a husband who had been abusing her for years and lived in dire straits every day. The two met and got to know each other, and agreed to elope together after the 15th of the lunar month.
However, when Erguotou packed up the money and arrived at the agreed place, He Xiaowan said that her husband had returned from fishing. After accepting Erguotou's property, she asked him to wait for a few more days.
When Erguotou came again today, He Xiaowan had already disappeared.
"He's not the only one who was cheated. Why do you hit me?" Xiao San covered his face and cursed.
Song Yuehua said, "What's going on here? Explain it first. If you want to quarrel, do it later."
In fact, Xiao San is not He Xiaowan’s husband.
When Xiao San met He Xiaowan, she said that she was abused by her newlywed husband and she couldn't bear it anymore, so she escaped and came here.
He was soft-hearted for a moment and let the woman stay in his home for refuge. As they stayed there, he began to feel amorous.
Unfortunately, Xiao San was a seafarer and could not stay at home for long. Every time he came back, he wanted to marry He Xiaowan in a legitimate way. However, every time he was rejected on the grounds that she was already a married woman and could not remarry.
This time when Xiao San came back, he was determined to find He Xiaowan's ex-husband and get them to divorce.
Everything was fine after he got home, but the next morning, He Xiaowan took his money and disappeared.
That was nothing compared to what happened next.
There were three such suckers as Erguotou, who lived in his house and cheated a lot of men.
"He Xiaowan, you bastard!" Xiao San couldn't help scolding himself and cried.
Song Yuehua looked at the two people who looked like dogs that had lost their homes and asked, "Do you want to go to the government office to report the case?"
Erguotou shook his head and said, "No need."
Xiao San looked at Erguotou with a complicated expression and asked, "How much were you cheated of?"
"Three or two."
This time, Xiao San cried even harder, "You poor bastard, you are so lucky. I have been working so hard for five years, saving 30 taels of silver, and now it's all gone!"
Erguotou, "..."
Now, Song Yuehua was even more confused. They were clearly two victims, so why did they start fighting?
Er Guotou sighed and said, "He Xiaowan said he beat a woman, and he was very arrogant when he spoke. What do you think he should be beaten?"
Song Yuehua rolled her eyes at him.
Erguotou did not report the case, and unexpectedly, Xiao San was also unwilling to report the case. It was said that he and He Xiaowan had had many sweet and affectionate times, and he really couldn't bear it.
Song Yuehua turned around and left, taking the Erguotou with her.
After leaving Xiao San's house, Song Yuehua asked, "Did you learn those fighting moves from Master Duan?"
"No," Erguotou said, holding his hands behind his head, "I knew the guy was just an ordinary guy the moment I started. There's no need to use a butcher knife to kill a chicken."
Song Yuehua nodded and said, "So you used the ear pick to dig him to death."
Erguotou, "..."
"Since the elopement failed, what are your plans?" Song Yuehua asked.
Erguotou sighed and said, "Let's just muddle along."
"Master Duan is most worried about you. He thinks you won't live to see tomorrow." Song Yuehua said.
"Is it that serious?" Erguotou shrugged, not taking it seriously.
Song Yuehua asked, "When you meet He Xiaowan again in the future, how do you want to face her?"
Speaking of He Xiaowan, Erguotou stopped and thought about it seriously.
"If possible, I hope we won't meet again in this life." Erguotou said.
Song Yuehua didn't expect that he would say such a thing.
Although the elopement was unsuccessful and she was defrauded of money, at least Erguotou stopped being a mistress for the time being, which was worth being happy about for Song Yuehua.
Song Yuehua would never have kept a person with Erguotou's personality for so long, if he had not done the Xingjia Village incident and left a handle in other people's hands. This person is like a time bomb that might explode at any time.
When the two were about to reach the city gate, Song Yuehua asked, "Do you have any work to do recently?"
"No, what's wrong?" Erguotou turned his head.
Song Yuehua asked, "Have you heard about what happened in the blacksmith shop in the county?"
"Know."
Song Yuehua continued, "Now Xiaofu is the only one accompanying her father in the blacksmith shop. I am worried that Blacksmith Zhao will be upset, so I want to find someone to take care of the father and daughter as a handyman. 250 coins a month for three months. How about that?"
Erguotou looked at her with a puzzled look on his face, "You have a good relationship with Zhao Tiejiang's family?"
"I'm a frequent customer of Zhao the blacksmith shop." Song Yuehua said.
Erguotou snorted and laughed, "You have a kind heart."
Song Yuehua frowned and asked, "Are you going to do it or not?"
Erguotou walked to the side of the road, squatted down, and nodded, "Can Zhao the blacksmith know about this? What if he doesn't accept me?"
"Don't let him know. As for how to get him to accept you, you figure it out yourself." Song Yuehua said.
Erguotou sighed heavily, cracked his neck and said, "Okay, how about you add some more money?"
"No need to add anything, you are worth this price." Song Yuehua said.
Erguotou, "..."
Song Yuehua felt it was worth spending some money to get this giant Buddha away.
The condition of Blacksmith Zhao is indeed worrying. With Erguotou around, Zhao Xiaofu can relax a little, which is a perfect way to kill three birds with one stone.
