Chapter 0401 Sanjiaxiang Hutong
Knowing that Zhang Jixian rejected Qing Gege's hospitality, the first person to scold him was none other than Lan Jianzhang. Of course, Zhang Jixian is his constitution, and he doesn't dare to scold, but Zhang Jixian has always been loud, and Lan Jianzhang was promoted at the same time as him, and he is the same age, and he usually votes for the deed, so there are some accusations between the words.
After the day was dismissed from the inspectors, it was already three quarters in the afternoon. Zhang Jixian and Lan Jianzhang came out one after another, that is, they wanted to say goodbye to each other and go home. Even if he became a member of the third grade, Zhang Jixian still likes to walk home by himself and does not hire someone to sit in a sedan chair. In his words, he has to pay the porter every month to hire a servant to lift his feet, and the rest of the money is better than eating meat and drinking wine himself. Fortunately, Sanjiaxiang is not far from the Duchayuan, but it is only three or five miles, and it will take more than half an hour to get home.
In the past, Zhang Jixian was scattered, and he was always busy going home to sleep, but today, somehow, after a long time, there was still no current meaning. Lan Jianzhang's sedan chair was beside him, and after Shangxian Zhang Jixian left, the sedan chair drivers carried Lan Jianzhang back to his home. Who knows that he doesn't go left or right, just standing and chatting with Lan Jianzhang without saying a word.
Seriously, Lan Jianzhang went to the Metropolitan Procuratorate in the morning, and simply ate a bowl of fried noodles at the Metropolitan Courtyard at noon, and he was hungry at this time, as long as he went back to the house to eat something good. But Lan Jianzhang didn't leave, and he didn't want to leave without permission.
Suddenly, Zhang Jixian grabbed Lan Jianzhang and asked, "Do you have anything to do when you go home?" ”
Lan Jianzhang didn't know why, shook his head in a daze and said, "It's okay." ”
Zhang Jixian shouted hello, pulled him away and said, "Okay, go to my house and sit down." ”
Zhang Jixian's move was really a little surprised. There was no sign at all. Lan Jianzhang was carried by him, and the porters hurriedly asked with an empty sedan chair in the back, "Lord Lan, Lord Lan." Is this sedan chair still sitting? ”
Lan Jianzhang didn't look back and said, "You guys go back first." ”
Zhang Jixian's home in Sanjiaxiang, Lan Jianzhang has also been to it seven or eight times. Before, he was alone, and there was no one else except for the four walls. Now he is a dignified three-grade member, naturally he can't be compared with ordinary people, an old pawn is arranged at the door to watch the door, and an old woman is added to the courtyard to cook and wash.
On the way back, Zhang Jixian bought two catties of cooked beef, slaughtered a fat goose, and went back to steam and eat. In the end, I beat two catties of wine, and then returned to Sanjia Alley.
The pawn guarding the door was old-eyed and dazzled, listening to the footsteps of Master Zhang. Please An said, "The master is back." ”
Zhang Jixian took a sneaky look inside with bated breath and asked in a low voice, "Is anyone looking for me today?" ”
The doorman squinted and asked, "Who is looking for an adult?" The people who came to the door were all beaten away by the adults. Who would dare to look for adults these days. ”
Zhang Jixian took a long breath and said: "That's good, that's good, it's good if no one is looking for it." "Say it. said to Lan Jianzhang: "Go." Let's go in and have a good drink. ”
After entering the courtyard, Zhang Jixian handed over the food in his hand to the old woman who greeted him, and ordered her to come out with a whole table of dishes. The old woman nodded yes.
But the two of them entered the door and sat down in the hall. There was no little girl pouring tea in the house, but Zhang Jixian made a pot of tea by himself and poured a cup for Lan Jianzhang and said: "I am such a character, I am not used to being served by others." Besides, I'm used to it, and I still feel inconvenient for a little girl to come in suddenly. ”
Lan Jianzhang smiled and said, "Brother Zhang's temper should also be changed. In the future, how can you live alone until you are old? ”
Zhang Jixian was taking a sip of tea and listening to Lan Jianzhang. Suddenly spit to the ground, waved his hand again and again and said, "Brother Lan, don't say such depressing words." That's what the old mother in the family said. He also said that he would go to Beijing in the next few days, and he also took my daughter-in-law with him. Heck, these two days didn't scare my guts. Don't tell my brother that I'm used to being alone, and I feel sad to be restrained by women. ”
Lan Jianzhang suddenly realized, it turned out that he was afraid that his mother would bring his daughter-in-law into the door, so he pulled him to relieve his boredom.
"Brother Zhang's habit has to be changed. Our hall is big or small, brothers can let go of the words, Brother Zhang don't be surprised. ”
Zhang Jixian was impatient to listen to this, but seeing Lan Jianzhang's stern expression, it was difficult to refuse, so he had to say patiently: "Okay, you can say it." ”
"Brother Zhang is also twenty-two years old this year, it stands to reason that he should have married a wife and started a family at such an age, how can he be lonely until he is old? The old lady misses her brother, and for the sake of the heirs of the Zhang family, she should also marry a wife and get married as soon as possible. Our dad is good underground, Brother Zhang said yes yes or no. ”
Speaking of this, Zhang Jixian was silent. His father died of illness when he was fifteen years old, and his mother had worked hard to raise him all these years. If you have never been married and have no children, how can you explain if you really have three long and two short to see your father below?
While speaking, the old woman had already sorted out a table of dishes. As soon as he saw the plate of goose meat, Zhang Jixian's eyes lit up, and he said happily: "Brother Lan, don't talk about that, let's eat meat first." I was busy at noon and didn't eat enough, and I was so hungry at this time. ”
Lan Jianzhang was also hungry, so he didn't say anything more, first poured Zhang Jixian a full glass of wine, and poured a glass himself, and said, "Yes, yes, yes, let's talk while eating." ”
"Master, master!" In the midst of two screams, the old pawn who opened the door came in in a panic.
"What's the matter?" Zhang Jixian stopped his wine glass and asked, "What's so alarming?" ”
"Master, someone is coming, someone is coming!"
Zhang Jixian said in a loud voice: "What's the big deal, as usual, say I'm not at home, just blast out." ”
The old pawn became more and more flustered, waved his hand again and again, and said indistinctly: "No, no, it's a woman, no, two women." ”
Two women? Zhang Jixian was stunned, since he became the right deputy capital of the imperial history, there were many officials looking for him, but the first time he heard that a woman came to him, there were still two, could it be them?
Just as I was about to ask again, I heard footsteps outside, and then, someone said angrily: "He, I haven't seen you in the past two years, you have grown your skills, and even the old lady is gone." Three farts, get out of here! ”
The person who came was none other than Zhang Jixian's old mother, and the third fart was a nickname she was used to when she was a child.
Zhang Jixian hurriedly put down the wine glass, turned his head over, knelt on the ground and asked, "Mother, why did you say that you came?" ”
Then came in, an old man and a young man, the old man was naturally Zhang Jixian's mother, followed by a twenty-five or sixteen-year-old woman. This woman is tall and strong, with a dark face, round shoulders and waist, and at first glance she is a veteran of working in the field.
Zhang Jixian's mother didn't look at him, and went straight in and sat down. Lan Jianzhang got up early and bowed: "Foolish nephew Lan Jianzhang has seen the old lady!" (To be continued......)
