Water Margin official

Following the direction pointed by the old man, we saw a dozen thatched cottages built there close to mountains and rivers.

After thanking their father-in-law, the four of them led the horses and walked to the door. They saw several small fishing boats hanging on dry piles, and a broken fishing net hanging outside the fence. At a glance, they knew that they made their living by fishing. A living family.

Zhang Zhengdao stood outside the fence and shouted loudly: "Is this Ruan Xiaoer's house?"

After waiting for a while, no one answered, Zhang Zhengdao shouted again: "Is Ruan Xiaoer at home?"

At this time, a woman walked out of the house, wiping her hands on her body. She saw four noble men holding BMWs standing outside her door, and asked, "Who are the guests looking for?"

"Sister-in-law, is this Ruan Xiaoer's home?" Zhang Zhengdao bowed his hands and saluted.

The woman was inexplicably surprised, but she replied: "This is the second brother's house. What do these guests want to do with him?"

Zhang Zhengdao smiled and said: "Sister-in-law, don't worry. I heard someone mentioned that there are three good guys living here, so I came to get acquainted with them. There is no evil intention."

The woman felt a little relieved and continued: "Second brother went to fifth brother's house early in the morning and said that my mother-in-law was sick."

Zhang Zhengdao heard her words, and it seemed that the wife of the three Ruan brothers was ill, so he said again: "Can you please lead the way, sister-in-law, and lead us to the fifth brother's house?"

The woman replied: "Guys, wait a moment, I will bring the little monkey at home."

After saying that, the woman turned around and returned to the house. Not long after, she saw the woman dragging a five or six-year-old child out of the house. She closed the wooden door ajar and walked out of the yard, leading the way.

The four of them followed her and walked to Ruan Xiaowu's home.

The little naughty boy that the woman was pulling would look back and stare at Zhang Zhengdao and others from time to time. His eyes were mostly attracted by his tall white horse. He did not look at the road ahead and stumbled along as he was being pulled along by the woman.

Not long after, they arrived at a high port surrounded by water and with seven or eight thatched houses. This was Ruan Xiaowu's home.

But before everyone entered the hospital, they heard the sound of quarrels coming from inside.

I only heard a man shouting: "Fifth brother, if you hadn't been gambling for days and lost every penny, and then gambled away the hairpin on my head, how could I have gotten sick?"

Then I heard another man shouting: "Fifth brother, I'm not talking about you, you only focus on gambling all day long, and I can't even take a mouthful of hot soup."

Then the third man shouted loudly: "You blame me so much, second brother, you have a mother-in-law and a little monkey that you begged for, but why don't you want to take me to live with you? My sister-in-law doesn't like me anymore." Why do you keep silent when we deal with it?"

Then I heard the man from before shouting in a higher tone: "Fifth brother, what are you talking nonsense? I like you so much that I am willing to live with you. Your sister-in-law is really virtuous and has never failed me."< /p>

The second man shouted: "Second brother, fifth brother, and I are all so ill. If we continue to quarrel, I am afraid that I will lose my life. It is important to find a way to collect some money to treat my illness."

Just now I heard Ruan Xiaowu complaining about his family. The woman standing outside the courtyard had red eyes, but she didn't cry. She just choked and shouted: "Second brother, we have a visitor."

Ruan Xiaoer heard his wife yelling outside, so he stopped quarreling with his brother and walked out of the thatched cottage.

But I saw my wife leading the child, followed by four travelers, each holding a horse.

Ruan Xiaoer was the most attentive person. He carefully looked at the official who was surrounded by three people, and saw that he had eyebrows and phoenix eyes, white teeth and red lips. He was seventeen or eighteen years old, with a smile on his face, and he was constantly smiling.

Looking at myself carefully.

"Who are the officials looking for?" Ruan Xiaoer asked.

Zhang Zhengdao looked at Ruan Xiaoer, and saw that this man had a stern face, raised eyebrows, and punched from all sides. There was a strip of yellow hair on his chest, and two horizontal ribs on his back. His arms seemed to have

With hundreds of kilograms of strength, his eyes shot out tens of thousands of cold lights.

He wore a torn turban on his head, old clothes, and bare feet. He was worthy of being called Tai Sui, and he was indeed the devil incarnate.

"May I ask who you are, Brother Ruan?" Zhang Zhengdao asked.

Ruan Xiaoer was confused about the identities of these four visitors and hurriedly said, "I am Ruan Xiaoer. I wonder why the officials are looking for me?"

Zhang Zhengdao cupped his fists and saluted, saying: "I'm just here to look for the second brother. The fifth brother is in the house. If the seventh brother is here, please come out and talk."

At this time, I saw two other big men walking out of the thatched house with bare feet. They were all surprised when they saw Zhang Zhengdao and the other four people.

Zhang Zhengdao cupped his fists at the two people and said, "Are these two brothers the fifth brother and the seventh brother?"

The man standing to the left of Ruan Xiaoer said: "I am Ruan Xiaowu."

Zhang Zhengdao saw that Ruan Xiaowu was wearing a tattered headscarf, a pomegranate flower on his temples, and an old shirt, revealing a green leopard tattooed on his chest. He tied up his trousers with a plaque underneath.

A cloth handkerchief wrapped around a chess piece.

A pair of big hands are like iron rods, and the two ring eyes are like copper bells. There is always a smile on the face, but in fact there is poison hidden deep in the heart. It can cause misfortune, and it is good at preventing disasters. A lion is chilled by a punch, and a snake is frightened by a kick.

.Where can I find the messenger of the plague? This is the short-lived Erlang, Ruan Xiaowu.

Needless to say, the other one was the living Yama Ruan Xiaoqi. Zhang Zhengdao went to look at him carefully again, and saw that Ruan Xiaoqi was wearing a chess piece cloth vest, a raw cloth skirt tied around his waist, and his face was scarred with strange flesh.

His exquisite eyes protrude from his eyes, his cheeks have a short yellowish beard, and his body is dotted with black spots. It looks like it is made of pig iron, and it is suspected to be cast from stubborn copper. Don't talk about the evil priest of the Yue Temple, but he is really an upright man in the world. The villagers call him the Living Yama.

The five true ways of birth.

Seeing the three Ruan brothers, Zhang Zhengdao was overjoyed and said: "My younger brother Zhang Zhengdao from Qinghe County, Yunzhou, heard that there are three heroes living here, so I came here to pay a visit."

Ruan Xiaoer saw that this official came here from Qinghe County, Yunzhou, and seemed to be here specifically to find the three brothers, so he said: "Please forgive me, official. My mother is ill in bed and has no one to take care of her. I'm afraid she talks too much."

Inconvenience."

Zhang Zhengdao smiled and said: "Since my wife is sick at home, why not call a doctor to come and treat her."

"If there is a doctor here, let me, my servant, ride a horse to invite him." Zhang Zhengdao told Zhang Liu to ask him to invite a doctor.

Seeing this, Ruan Xiaoer said bluntly: "The officials are polite, but my brothers are short of money and have never hired a doctor."

Zhang Zhengdao smiled and said: "This is a small matter. Second brother, please relax. I will pay the money. I just treat it as a filial piety to my mother."

"Where can I find a doctor? Please ask my second brother and my servant to show you the way. Go and come back quickly. Don't delay the treatment." Zhang Zhengdao urged.

Seeing how heroic Ruan Xiaoer was, he stopped hesitating and told him that there was a medical clinic in a town not far from here and he could hire a doctor.

Zhang Liu noted the route and went with Wang Sanguan to ask the doctor to come and treat the wife of the three Ruan brothers.

Seeing that Zhang Zhengdao also ordered his servants to buy some food, Ruan Xiaoer knew that he was a wealthy guest, so he politely said: "My lord, please wait a moment while I settle down with my wife."

Ruan Xiaoer then pulled his wife aside and whispered a few instructions, then the woman took the child into the thatched cottage to take care of her.
