One hundred and thirty-one fireside chatter
"Can you get dressed and come out again?"
ββ¦β¦ I don't have any clothes to wear," Zhang Ye replied very naturally, "The previous ones stinkβdon't you also dislike my clothes, so naturally you can't wear them." Let's go out and buy two in a moment. β
Man Qing looked out the window, "It's time, the store is closed." Didn't I bring you two, you can wear them first!"
"Okay. The little lady in front of him didn't eat the tofu, and Zhang Ye said that he was helpless, so he had to put on his clothes. "You can wipe my hair for me - I've just been washing for a long time, and I don't know if it's ...... clean."
Man Qing resigned herself to her fate, picked up the cloth towel and stepped forward to be a maid.
It was almost over, and Man Qing didn't want to stay in the room with this hairy guy, so she pulled him downstairs to go shopping, "Buy you a few changes of clothes." Besides, we didn't know how many days we were going to stay here and buy something else. β
Zhang Ye didn't really want to mention this topic, so he just said "um".
Out of the inn door, Man Qing asked Zhang Ye how much the room here cost a day, since they might have to stay permanently, they had to save some money.
"What kind of money to save," Zhang Ye wrapped one hand around Man Qing's shoulder, looking weak and unable to support the wind, "Who will spend the money saved, and spend it on those black-hearted officials and old men? Hmph, I won't! From now on, I can spend as much money as I want, and I don't leave any money left, so that no one will worry about it!"
Man Qing pushed him away a little, but then he was like an octopus, and quickly slammed again, "Don't move, I'm empty now, I don't have the strength to walk." β
"Really?" Man Qing looked at him, "Didn't you say that there was no problem in the afternoon, just take care of it?"
"Then I have to raise it too! I haven't started raising it yet!"
Man Qing wanted to pinch him when he saw his unobtrusive appearance, but it was easy to endure it, "Well, since you said that you don't feel sorry for the silver, then we will go back and open a room again - we haven't married yet, what is it like to live in one room like this!"
Hearing this, Zhang Ye was stunned, thinking that this girl is shrewd, and she knows that she has set herself up! Hehe, I have to let her know what Jiang is old and spicy, "That's not good." I often can't sleep well at night, I have to take medicine, drink water, and sweat easily, and you don't take care of me next to me, who will take care of me! Don't wait a day or two, my body, which was only better, is sick again-"
"Bah, what are you talking about, don't get sick, do you hear me?"
"Okay, don't get sick, then you can take good care of me!" Zhang Ye looked pitiful, but unfortunately he was hidden behind his beard, and he couldn't see it very clearly.
In fact, the face hidden behind the beard is about to die of laughter, okay, Zhang Ye thought to himself as he walked, do you want to buy a razor and shave your beard? But this beard is sloppy and inconvenient, but it is so pitiful that he is a little reluctant to do it.
Speaking of pretending to be pitiful, Zhang Ye has survived only after sticking his old face to the ground in the past two months.
Naturally, it is unjust to say. Zhang Ye took great pains to start from a paulownia garden at Tongshu Wharf, at the beginning, he didn't plant trees and raise trees to squeeze tung oil, and then he slowly got better, and he also took a few people to build stones to repair roads, docks and houses, and every bit was done with these hands, and later he has been thinking about the people on one side, and he has never thought about how much hard-earned money he has to take...... In this way, he was still targeted, and three catties of nails had to be scraped out of the flat ground.
He is an upright person, he has never deceived others only by helping others, but he has to constantly pretend to be pitiful to be less tortured, such days, he doesn't want to think about them again in this life.
Thinking that he hugged the girl next to him tightly, "When this time is over, we will go back and never come to this bird place again." β
Man Qing looked up at him, and saw a few dimness flashes in his eyes, so he didn't ask, and waited until he wanted to say it.
"You let it go!
Zhang Ye also knew that they were still under the surveillance of some people, and when he saw that there were many people, he let go of his hand, "Okay, listen to you." Recently, there are still people staring at me in this county, so it's better to be cautious. β
At this time, it has entered the middle of winter, except for the most prosperous street in the county, there are still a few shops open, and the others have already closed their doors and gone home to Maodong.
Zhang Ye was wearing a thin cotton jacket brought by Man Qing from home, a little big, swaying on his body, plus his face was sallow, his beard was slag, and he looked like a homeless man who had just been washed. They found a ready-to-wear store, Zhang Ye was not stingy, and bought a warm cotton coat for himself, Manqing, and Gao Laojiao, and gave up when he heard that Aunt Zhou Manqing had already bought it for her. As for the Gui family, it is better to directly reward the silver two.
After buying these, the two went to buy some sundries, and after turning around, Zhang Ye still went to buy a small razor, "Am I too ugly like this?"
"It's okayβ" Man Qing took two steps away from him, looking up and down, "that is, he looks a little haggard than before, and it's almost the same as before!"
Zhang Ye doesn't like to listen to this, he doesn't look good now, it's almost the same as before, that is to say, it didn't look good before?
When he returned to the guest room at night, Zhang Ye still dragged Man Qing to his room regardless of other people's eyes. Neither of them was sleepy, so they simply ordered some food and a pot of wine, and a brazier, and the two talked around the fireplace at night.
"What did you mean then, that I wasn't good-looking now, the same as before, and I wasn't good-looking before?"
Man Qing glanced at him, didn't want to pay attention to his idiot's question, kept pouring him wine, and it was less than half a glass, "You just drink a little to warm up your body." Tell me what the situation is now, and Si Liang said that Master Sun still wants to see the two of us later, what is the situation?"
"You answer my question first, and I'll answer your question later. - Hey, can you pour more, that's it, the cup is not wet, what to drink?!"
"If you don't drink it, then eat it. β
Zhang Ye went to look at the five dishes on the table again, basically all of them were green vegetarian dishes, and the only meat dish was a plate of shredded chicken tofu, which was not as much as shredded tofu, "I'm not a rabbit, why are you giving me such green grass?"
"It's okay not to eat, you drank so much porridge at night, and there was no less. β
"You-" Zhang Ye glared, "Are you taking care of me, are you abusing me!"
"Your body is still weak, you can't drink alcohol and you can't eat big fish, you just endure it!" Man Qing glared at him, "Hurry up and get down to business!"
Zhang Ye is just teasing her, where can he really be angry with her. The winter night is long, and now the beauty is on the side, smiling and smiling, and the most fortunate moment in life needs to be spent well.
"Don't say it. Unless you answer my previous question. β
"What's the problem?" Seeing that he was not in a hurry, it was estimated that the matter would not be too serious, and Manqing also relaxed.
"Is it just that I used to look good?"
Man Qing was amused and glanced at him, "You used to look like a bear - do you think the bear is good-looking?"
"What?" Zhang Ye's eyes widened, "You say I'm like a bear?"
Man Qing smiled back, pointed at the somewhat angry crown and said, "Look, look, isn't this a bear?"
"Whew-I ate you in one bite!" Zhang Ye made a gesture to her, making Man Qing laugh.
After laughing, Zhang Ye said the current situation very calmly. Master Sun took what Manqing had given him, and asked someone to hand it over to a former colleague in the palace. That person happened to have helped Lord Sun before, and in the past few years, because of some things that the emperor disliked, he was demoted to a side of the government to do an idle job, and he was depressed, trying to find a way to restart it everywhere, and when he saw these things, he immediately laughed, and wrote an excerpt with a hundred times more energy.
The rest came naturally. Lord Sun is also a bird with one stone. The first is to repay Zhang Ye's love and calm the family troubles in the past, the second is to help his former colleagues, and the return of the love also makes the person owe him a lot of favors, and the third is to do a great thing to the people in his hometown, which is considered to be famous, and gives the rest of his old age an excellent environment.
But he was still cautious, so he asked someone to bring a message to Zhang Ye, asking the two of them to meet him after the matter was completely resolved, and give him one last guarantee.
Now Zhang Ye has been acquitted and released, but Master Zhang's punishment has not yet been decided, so they have to go to the court to testify, and they can't leave yet.
God knows how much Zhang Ye hates this county, he really doesn't want to stay for a moment.
