Chapter 4 Promotion because of chickens

The man had a chance, and Zhang was very happy, "Then kill a chicken and stew, stir-fry bacon with fresh bamboo shoots, peel a peanut rice, cut a leek and scramble an egg, cut a capers and fry minced meat, mix a amaranth, and fry a bitter gourd." ”

"Nie Tingchang was promoted to the magistrate and recommended me to fill his gap." Liu Chengfang said, "You can't guess why he didn't choose so many Li Zheng and recommended me alone." In the final analysis, it was still the credit of Fat, and the home remedies she heard from the outside not only saved Hongguang, but also saved the black hair of the pavilion chief's family. If it weren't for the black hair, our Hongguang wouldn't have been dyed, or I didn't care about my previous suspicions, and I deliberately went to his house to tell him when I bought medicine. No, it's fine all at once. He's been raising his black hair for four or five years, so it's rare......"

As soon as he talked about cockfighting, Liu Chengfang suddenly became interested, regardless of whether Zhang was listening or not.

Zhang couldn't imagine that her husband was promoted for this, and she was full of emotion for a while, "No matter what the master says, he is also a lifter, not to mention the pavilion chief, even the county master, who also made it." ”

Liu Chengfang liked to listen to this, but sighed again, "What about lifting people? It's not just about learning to be an official, otherwise why wouldn't I have studied in the past few years, specializing in this cockfight, according to the Nie family, Tokyo is the most popular now, that is, the emperor, and I like it very much. Otherwise, Brother An, I would have invited Mr. ”

"Otherwise, I will send it to Shuanghe, my father has already agreed, anyway, there is no problem with the "Three Character Classic", "Hundred Family Names", and "Thousand Character Text", let alone him, even Feifei listens to him every day, and he also reverses it downstream, and now he has learned "Mencius". Zhang said.

"It's good to be able to get in, but it's okay if you can't. Some people have studied hard all their lives, and when they reach the age of 70, they still can't pass the county exam, and they go more. Liu Chengfang said.

His grandfather is like this, so his father did not force their brothers to study, but the third of the four brothers was not from Xiucai, so he does not require his son to study now, anyway, his wife is also half a talented woman, and he enlightened his son at the age of four, and he can learn as much as he wants.

In fact, there is a reason why Zhang did not send Liu Yongan to the school.

Her son was personally enlightened by her at the age of four, but she didn't like to read, and two years have passed, and a copy of the "Three Character Classic" has not yet been learned. It wasn't until Wang Jing could speak, listening to her read to her brother every night, that she unconsciously memorized it, Liu Yongan naturally didn't want to be compared to a two-year-old baby, and he was angry and strong, so he slowly became serious in the next two years.

Liu Chengfang was promoted to "official", and took more care of Hongguang, and deliberately took out the bamboo bowl from Wang Jing's previous toys, washed it and washed it, and made a "rice bowl" for Hongguang.

Zhang Shi looked at it and smiled, "Chickens are chickens, and you have a special bowl, you might as well use a table for it!" ”

Liu Chengfang was not annoyed, "It's not that there is no money, when I have money, I will use a silver bowl to eat for it, and a golden bowl to drink." ”

blocked Zhang's and ignored him.

While the house was busy, a woman came in with a crying child.

The woman looked like she was in her early twenties, with a long face, willow eyebrows, double eyelids, big eyes, and quite a three-point posture, but a pair of eyes were not very restless, and there was a bit of gloom.

"Brother Liu, all the seedlings of my family were eaten by the cattle of the black-hearted family, what can I do, you have to be the master of my family." As he spoke, he secretly pinched the child he brought over, and the child cried "wow".

When the woman saw the child weeping, she sat down on the ground.

As soon as Zhang heard that there was a commotion outside, he couldn't care about stir-frying, so he hurriedly wiped his hands clean and came out with a stool, "Sister Xiao, don't be in a hurry if there is anything, sit down and talk slowly." ”

"My family relies on the seedlings in your paddy field, I don't know which black-hearted one, get the cattle over, the seedlings are all stepped on for me, and I eat them, I really feel sorry for the dead, if it goes on like this, I don't know what to eat in the autumn." She said a word, wiped her tears, and slapped her daughter.

Zhang was busy pulling, "Little child, what do you know, you can't sprinkle it on her if you are angry." ”

The Xiao family was ruthless, pointed at the girl and said: "Since I gave birth to this girl, not only my father-in-law and mother-in-law have a bad face, but even the child's father doesn't like to see her, and now the seedlings in the field have been ruined by a black-hearted person, and this life is really unbearable." ”

While he was making a fuss, a thin yellow young man came in, bowed down and saluted Liu Chengfang Cheng and his wife, and then pulled her out.

"This slut is not sensible, Brother Liu and his sister-in-law must not care." He said to Liu Fangcheng with a smile.

Xiao Shi saw that her husband was coming to pull, but she was still unwilling, until the man kicked her twice, and then she cried and cried and half-pushed and half-got up on the ground, "What about Lizheng, the baby he picked up has a black heart, so that the cow has finished all the scourge of our family's seedlings, and I am not allowed to say a word!" Don't let me say it here, I will stand on the ridge and scold tomorrow. ”

This voice is not big or small, just enough for Liu Chengfang and his wife to hear clearly.

The local crops are harvested twice a year, and the winter wheat is harvested and planted with rice, and the locals call the rice seedlings, if the cattle run to the field to destroy the seedlings, then the autumn is equal to the white seed.

Zhang was thinking about it, and he didn't know who did this lack of morality, but he didn't expect to guess that in the end, it was actually Wang Jing.

Originally, the two cows in the family have been fed by the Zhang family, but today happened to be a small day, and it was a little uncomfortable, so I asked Liu Yongan to go, and as soon as Liu Yongan went, Wang Jing naturally followed.

Could it be that the two children were playful, and the cow ran into the Chen family's paddy field?

"Sister Xiao, is it Brother An who herded cattle and ate your seedlings?" Zhang asked.

If it is his own child, this matter must be recognized, although the man is Lizheng, the Zhang family has never thought of bullying others. Besides, Li Zheng is this "official", and he is soft-spoken, if he really does that bullying thing, I am afraid that this official will also come to an end.

"Sister-in-law, don't listen to her nonsense, how can children herd cattle, how can it be so good, and there is also playfulness." The man named Chen Wall said.

Although these words are persuading, the meaning inside and out, as if it has been determined that Liu Yongan and Wang Jing did it.

Zhang hurriedly followed, and said kindly: "If it is really Brother An'er who did it, I will compensate you on his behalf, and we will pay you the taxes that should be paid." ”

When Xiao heard Zhang's words, he shook his head and said: "It's not Brother An, it's Fat, she is jealous of our family's Qingye and Brother An, and she deliberately makes it bad." ”

"That's also Brother An'er's fault, this cow should have been put by him, Fei Fei is just playing with it, wait for them to come back, I will train them well, let them go with you."

Before he finished speaking, Liu Yongan and Wang Jing pulled a cow and came back, just when they heard it, Liu Yongan asked inexplicably: "Mother, what's wrong with us?" ”

"What's wrong? Are you playful and have harmed the seedlings of your Aunt Xiao's house? Zhang raised his hand as he said that he wanted to hit Liu Yongan.

Chen Wall hurriedly stood up and blocked it, "Sister-in-law, it's not about Brother An'er, don't wronged him." ”

The Zhang family raised Liu Yongan so big, and he never beat him, and today he only did it for the Chen family, and when he saw that there were steps, he just asked: "How did I hear that you have harmed all the seedlings of the Xiao family's sister-in-law?" If there is, you will be here to accompany your Aunt Xiao, and you will still be a good boy of your mother after that. ”

Liu Yongan glanced at Wang Jing quickly.

He wasn't sure if the cow had eaten the seedlings, because it happened that Xiao's daughter had called him over to pick up wild eggs, and he wasn't sure if it was his sister's playfulness that caused such a thing.

However, if his mother has an opinion on his sister because of this incident, it won't be bad. When Liu Yongan thought about it, he wanted to admit it himself and memorize the black pot.

How do you think Wang Jing said: "Aunt Xiao said that I herded cattle and ate your seedlings, but is there anyone to prove it?" ”

Xiao Shi smiled coldly: "I saw it myself, it's still fake." ”

"Then I saw that you pulled the cow to gnaw it yourself." Wang Jing didn't give an inch.

"You kid, I'm going to let the cows eat my own crops! If you want to lie, you have to think about how to make it up. Xiao smiled coldly.

Chen Wall pulled Xiao Shi, "Go, go, go, go back, what's going on here!" "It looks like he wants to calm things down.

After a while, a large number of people gathered around to watch the excitement looked at Wang Jing with suspicious eyes.

Yes, what family planted a crop that did not take care of it carefully, and would spoil it itself? Everyone looked like they knew what they knew.

Someone even whispered: "Even if it's the Lizheng family, you have to accompany the cattle and other people's crops." ”

Liu Chengfang's face was even more flushed, and he felt that these two children were too undisciplined, but now is not the time to discipline the children, let's calm down the anger first.

He was about to speak, but he heard Wang Jing say: "Everyone is a good hand at growing crops, and it is estimated that they all know that the Xiao family's field has more than one acre, even if the cattle run in to eat, they will not eat so cleanly, there must be someone deliberately harming them, everyone go to the edge of the field and see if the footprints in it are mine, this matter will be clear." ”

As soon as Xiao Shi heard this, his face changed suddenly.

Her field was originally inferior, the grass in it grew much more, not to mention the groundwater, the wheat planted there could not germinate at all, and the rice planted there was less harvested than other families, so the man thought about digging and raising fish, and just saw that the side was gnawed by the cows, so she moved her mind, got up early in the morning, and let the cattle gnaw the seedlings.

Originally, she wasn't going to rely on Wang Jing, but someone gave her money and promised her benefits to let her do this.

"Why is it so troublesome, you don't recognize it." Xiao Shi looked at Zhang's face and said.

Although Zhang's temper is good, but he is not cowardly, listening to Wang Jing say so firmly, and seeing Xiao's expression, he has already guessed four or five points, "Sister of the Qin family, let's go, let's go and have a look together." ”

Qin's family is Jiyun's mother, who is usually good with Zhang's, so she went right away.

came back and said to everyone: "That footprint looks like an adult, but it has to be given to a three-year-old baby, although her father and mother went early, but Fourth Brother Liu and Sister Zhang treated her as if she was a daughter, blind, so they came to wronged people." ”

The Xiao family wanted to slip away when the Zhang family and the Qin family went to the field, but they were stopped by Liu Yongan, and now they were overwhelmed by what the Qin family said, "Ah, I saw that she had been there in the morning, so I was mistaken, and now it's good to make it clear." "I look very embarrassed.

Zhao Yongan stood up and looked at her mouth is two cheeks, "Who are you not good at slandering, favoring my sister, relying on her small, you think she is easy to bully, don't you?" ”

Xiao has already admitted her mistake, that is, Zhang and Liu Chengfang beat her at the moment, and others will say that they have to be unforgiving, but an eight-year-old child beats her, and she has to bear it.

Zhang Shi hurriedly said: "Brother An, what are you doing, you still don't apologize to your Aunt Xiao." As he spoke, he raised his slap and tried to hit him.

Liu Yongan spread his feet and ran, and a sentence came from afar, "Auntie, what kind of thing is she, she also came to slander my baby sister!" ”

Zhang's was originally made for people to see, and it didn't matter if he couldn't hit people.
