Chapter 21: Zang Jiao

When Ding Mu returned to his residence on Emmanu Avenue, he found that the tailor shop that had been closed was brightly lit and it was busy.
Walked out of the store from time to time, some gorgeous men and women aristocrats, they and some people waiting at the door salute each other, and then hurried away, disappeared into the night.
When Ding Mu walked into the tailor's shop, he saw Osborne hanging a tape measure around his neck, and his hands were gesturing on the chest of a "broad-minded" lady. It seemed to be explaining to the lady How to use a certain corset button flower.
It ’s just that he ’s too dedicated. Ding Mu saw that for his explanation, he drew his whole hand into the lady ’s low neckline, and then looked like a fisherman in the film. Fish in the strait.
The lady always had the joy of smiling on her face. When Osborne whispered to her that a certain color of buttons was suitable for the color of her skirt, her whole body seemed to be attached to the tailor.
But what made Ding Mu truly admire was not the tailor's dedication and the lady's love for beauty, but the lady's husband, a man who looked brightly dressed.
This man obviously has a wider mind. He stood not far from the two, so that when the tailor was measuring the size of his wife's bust by hand, he almost touched him.
But this person didn't seem to notice what was happening around him, but was completely charmed by a very ordinary small vest hanging on a wooden stand.
"I think you need that dress," Mrs. finally left the tailor and went back to her husband. "The pattern on it fits your robe very well, and I have to add some more clothes. It is said that the Bishops' Conference will be held soon. Assembly is now. "
"You said to my wife, this is really suitable for me," the man immediately agreed, and at the same time took out the money bag from his pocket readily. "This is for you."
"Thank you for your generosity," Osborne bowed to the salute, and took the money bag with very humble hands. "I hope you are satisfied."
"I am very satisfied."
The smile of the lady with a slight gasp hung on the corner of her mouth. When she was wearing the hat, she just saw Ding Mu standing not far away, and her eyes lit up immediately.
"Osborne, you didn't tell me you have a new guy here."
"He's not my buddy," Osborne walked over and patted Ding Mu's shoulder. "This is a friend of mine, Alexander, a young Cretan."
"Is it a Greek?" The lady showed an accident. Her almost dripping eyes flowed on Ding Mu's sculpted face, and the smile on her lips deepened. "If there is time, I would love to hear you talk about Crete. Thing. "
"It may not be easy," Osborne shrugged. "Alexander seems to have just gotten an errand from the priest, maybe he will be busy soon."
"Are you talking about the priest Alfonso?" The man next to him suddenly asked, nodding affirmed by Osborne, the look on his face became a lot more wonderful. "You can be trusted by the priest, this young man should be a Reliable friend. "
"I am only in a private position arranged by the priest."
This kind of answer obviously dissatisfied the couple, or was even more tempted. When Ding Mu was slightly unwilling to go upstairs, they immediately inquired about the origin of the young man from Osborne.
For this, Osbourne got another opportunity to sew two expensive long skirts, and by the way, the valley gully on the lady was measured again.
It wasn't until very late that the downstairs gradually quieted down, which made Ding Mu estimate that almost half of the nobles and officials in Palermo would go to the Osborne tailor's shop and make a circle. Got it.
The door of the room was suddenly knocked, and with a strong odor of alcohol, Osbourne shook the door and entered.
He leaned on the door frame and glanced into the room, then waved the bottle in his hand to Ding Mu: "Come on, Naxos, let's drink two glasses. I promise that if you don't have too much in the future Narcissism jumped into the river and drowned early, and it will surely become the enemy of all fathers and husbands. "
Finally, Osborne rushed over and replayed the wine bottle on the table beside the bed.
Ding Mu was a little helpless. He didn't know if the tailor was really drunk, but now he looks really bad.
Osborne was clearly prepared. He didn't know where to take out two glasses. After filling the wine, he stuffed one of them into Ding Mu's hand.
"Come on boy, my little daffodil," Osborne giggled and drank up the whole glass of wine. "You don't know how Madam Neodola just asked you about you, and she Husband, I think you will receive an invitation from them soon, they will take the initiative to make friends with you, and then more people are willing to make friends with you, and then you can mix yourself in Palermo. "
"It's just because I'm the priest's library treasurer?" Ding Mu asked disapprovingly, and then he remembered as if Osborne didn't know his job "Master priest asked me to be his personal library treasurer."
"Former priest," Osborne shook his index finger with a glass of wine. "Priest Alfonso will soon be the bishop, the bishop of Palermo, the archbishop of Sicily, then the cardinal, and then ... … "
Speaking of which, Osborne blinked at Ding Mu with playfulness.
Is the pope next?
Ding Mu thought about it.
"Wow la la."
Osborne suddenly pulled out of the pocket of his large clothes and threw Kim Flynn on the table. The smooth and round gold coins could not rotate, and finally lay down on the table with a violent shaking.
"This is yours," Osborne drank indifferently, and he smiled when he saw Ding Mu's face puzzled. "Those people always like to buy clothes in my tailor's shop. Is the best tailor. "
Seeing Ding Mu still didn't mean to speak, Osborne put the cup on the table, although still full of alcohol, his eyes became cunning and bright.
"I am just a tailor, but I can serve Master Gongxiang, this is the key to their willingness to deal with me, and you, my friend, will serve the Bishop of Palermo."
"I'm just a personal job."
Ding Mu took the cup with disapproval, but was snatched by Osborne.
"Are you kidding me?" Osborne stared at Ding Mu's eyes. "Don't tell me that you risk losing your head just because I'm afraid that my conscience can't pass. I can see your thoughts, little daffodils, so you really feel yourself Just a personal errand? "
Ding Mu looked at Osborne a bit strangely. He did n’t know that the tailor ’s drunkenness was a bit real, but he could n’t help but talk a little bit, or torn off everyone ’s mask. Too.
"Then what do you think I should do?" Ding Mu asked nonchalantly.
"That's right, honesty is the best way to make friends," Osborne put the glass in Ding Mu's hands and looked at him with a smile. "Look at how beautiful you are, a Naxos, an Apollo. , Palermo ’s women will go crazy for you, and unless you ca n’t think of a priesthood, I guarantee that all the boudoirs will come with you. "
Listening to this sigh and praise, Ding Mu was a little uncomfortable. Just when he began to doubt whether the tailor had any special orientation, Osborne said slowly: "But you have a little trouble now, although this will not affect It ’s always not good to see how the priest thinks of you. "
Ding Mu's heart moved, he thought about it and vaguely guessed what the tailor said was the trouble.
Sure enough, Osborne continued: "That bohemian woman, maybe it should be a girl, she is now in Palermo, and there are people today who saw her performing in the city, which is not a good thing for you . "
Ding Mumo nodded silently. He knew that Gomez could not send someone to investigate his origin and whether the words he said were true. It now seems that the relationship between the Gypsies and him should have been clearly checked by Gong Xiang. Chu.
"Go to solve this trouble," Osborne stood up and drank the wine. "Don't forget that you are so young, and will soon develop. Good women have some, there is no need to ruin yourself for a Bohemian woman. . "
Ding Mu listened calmly to Osborne and watched as the tailor walked out of the room, he sat down and poured himself a glass of wine.
It ’s time to understand, Ding Mu told himself this, and then took a drink and drank it.
An open field near the west of Palermo City near the woods. This is a new camp that the Gypsies found in the north of Palermo City.
On Easter night two days ago, as Sophia ran back alone, and was still waiting to figure out what was happening, the Gypsies were driven out of the camp in the south by the army that followed.
Then the next two days were a disaster for these gypsies. More and more soldiers appeared on the streets, and the hearts of people in Palermo floated. They had hoped to make a gypsy in this Sicilian capital. It was discovered that suddenly no one was interested in their performances and juggling anymore, even Sophia ’s flying knives and bohemian women who deliberately shook their chests and hips could not attract those seemingly worried Palermo People.
This of course made everyone anxious and angry, and some even blamed Ding Mu who abandoned Sophie.
By this time, Ding Muyouzai suddenly appeared, and the entire Gypsy camp seemed to be boiling for a while.
Xia Schina stared at Ding Mu with a fierce look, her hands on her hips, her chin on her chin, it was a posture of the deputy gypsy woman fighting, and other people also showed obvious hostility to Ding Mu's appearance.
"You dare to come, it's shameless," Chaskina shoved Ding Mu's chest with her angry hands. "Hurry up, you've got enough trouble for us, leave here quickly, or nobody Can guarantee not to kill you. "
"I want to see Sophia," Ding Mu didn't want to explain, and he couldn't explain it. He wouldn't say his thoughts to Chasquina. Even in the face of Sophia, he couldn't tell the truth completely. "This is me and me. The matter between wives. "
"Oh, she's your wife now," Chasquina made a funny laugh. "But Sophia doesn't want to see you, and you should be glad that I met you, or you might be unlucky."
Ding Mu was a little annoyed. It was really trouble to meet a woman with an overprotective desire. He simply bypassed Chasquina and walked to the camp.
"Did you not hear what I said, you are not welcome here." Chasquina came up and wanted to hold Ding Mu's arm, but he was thrown away by him.
"This is between me and my wife," Ding Mu said one by one, "Only she has the right to decide what to do with me."
Xia Schina stared at Ding Mu fiercely, and then let go of her hand to the side: "Well, go, let me see what you do."
Ding Mu turned around and walked to the camp, but he soon understood why Chasquina said it was lucky to meet her. All the gypsies he met along the way stared at him with angry and terrible eyes.
When he came outside the Sophia caravan, Ding Mu unexpectedly saw the old Gurga standing not far from the caravan.
Seeing Ding Mu, old Gurga wiped a curl of his beard with his hand.
"Jaj," Gurga walked over to block Ding Mu. "You ran away."
"No, I just left for two days."
"But you still escaped," Old Gurga stroked the short knife in his waist. "Now I can avenge my nephew, get your knife ready."
"If you want to kill me, you have to be prepared to be held accountable by the officials here," Ding Mu opened his hand slightly. "I am now the treasurer of the priest of Palermo, do you think about it, think about you People. "
The muscles on Old Gurga's face twitched slightly, and he was obviously very angry. This can be seen from the fact that his hand was clenched tightly on the handle of the knife, but he finally didn't say anything.
Ding Mu took out a few kefrin from his clothes and slowly placed it on the wooden pier next to it.
"The work I should do for you is replaced with these gold coins. Now let me go to see my wife."
The meat on Old Gulja's face was shaking, he was obviously hesitating, and then slowly backed away, at the same time a strange smile appeared on his face.
"Go Jay, go find her, she knows what to do with you, remember, Bohemia has a grievance."
Took a breath, Ding Mu walked to the caravan, he greeted him softly, and somehow he was comforting who said "Sophia, don't do anything stupid," and raised the curtain.
Then, he felt a flash in front of him, and the flashing dagger was "banged" by the hand he was holding the car.
Ding Mu's heart was cold, but he didn't know well, but he didn't wait for him to speak again. A figure had rushed in front of him. With a sore throat, a sharp blade had cut the skin of his strong edge!
In the dim caravan, Sophia's big eyes in front of her were very bright in black and white. From that eye, Ding Mu saw anger, disappointment, hate, and a deterrent that scared him the most!
Gypsies have a clear grudge.
Gypsies dare to love and hate.
Gypsy women can be desperate for love,
Gypsy women can also destroy everything for love!
Ding Muxian felt that the eyebrows were a little wet, and then his eyes were hot. He knew that the cold sweat in his forehead had entered his eyes.
"Sophia, obedient, can you say something?"
Ding Mu felt that even his girlfriend who had faced her last life had never been so low-spirited. After all, whatever she said, the previous girlfriend had never touched him with a knife.
The short knife left slightly, but he didn't wait for him to breathe and immediately pressed it against his throat. Although the blade seemed to be biased, his throat was suffocated.
"Sophia, listen to me," Ding Mu kept his voice as low as possible. He didn't know if anyone was outside the caravan, but he still tried to be careful. "Listen to Sophia, be sure to remember every word I say to you, this It's really important. "
Ding Mu began to speak in a low voice. With his words, the short knife in Sophia's hands was sometimes oppressed and slowed down. Gradually, her originally angry eyes became confused and then she showed stubbornness and unwillingness.
"Baby, you must listen to me."
Don't know when, Ding Mu's hand had already embraced Sophia's waist. Although the girl twisted reluctantly a few times, Ding Mu still hugged and refused to let go.
"What, do you ask me what to do for the old man? What should I say, it's a housekeeper, of course not now, but it will be in the future ..."
"Of course I won't leave you. I came here just for this, otherwise you think I should give Old Gul good money, this is also because you won't be able to stay here in the future ..."
"Reassure that I will come to pick you up ~ EbookFREE.me ~ I won't let you stay with the Bohemians anymore, and when it comes to this ..."
At this time, Ding Mu had completely embraced Sophia in her arms. Although thinking about the difficulty of being 12 years old was really insurmountable, the fiery carcass in his arms and his age was very different, but Ding Mu could only use it. Think about what really matters and distract.
"Listen to Sophia" Ding Mu pressed her lips to Sophia's ear and lowered her voice. "Remember what I'm saying to you now. Don't tell anyone, neither can Chasquina. You have to swear I will tell you."
Watching Sophia make a swearing gesture very seriously, Ding Mucai continued to say in her ear: "I will find a place to house you, you can't continue to wander with the Bohemians, but you have to hide it People know. Remember if someone wants to take you away, unless they bring me the secret word I left for you, do n’t believe anyone, if they do n’t catch the secret word, you kill them, and then you run away Okay never come back to know? "
Ding Mu's words made Sophia panic. She stretched out her hands and hugged Ding Mu's neck tightly, squeezing her body upward, as if she wanted to fuse the two together.
"Now listen to Sophia, make a good note," Ding Mu said in a lower voice. He whispered in Sophia's ear, "Ding Mu ~, Ding Mu ~, remember, the only person who can speak this word is I arranged to meet your."
Sophia looked at her husband holding her slightly confused, and now she has admitted that he is her husband again.
"You don't need to know what this word means, just remember that it is important to us."
First whispered in Sophia's ear, and then he kissed fiercely on the delicate lips of the girl!
