The work of Zhang's clan study was recommended by Miao Sanniang's father. Although Miao Sanniang's father is a slammer, he still has a wide range of people, and he actually knows the master of the Zhang clan.

It's just that after the recommendation, Miao Sanniang's two-month bundle of money was only given by Miao's father for one month. And just asked Guo Lin to give it a try, and didn't say that he would be hired if he tried it.

Guo Xuezhu was unable to teach after he fell ill, so Zhang Yue took the time to go back home.

From the small mountain village of the pedant, I walked all the way down the Nanpu River, remembering the truth that my brother said that it was not allowed to take a private crossing, and then spent 30 yuan to cross the river from Gongdu, and then walked along the road for more than half an hour before arriving at Shuinan New Street.

Shuinan New Street is still the same.

The vendors on both sides shouted incessantly, peddling to pilgrims and merchants entering the mountain.

The streets are still so cramped, and the dirty water is flowing freely.

The buildings along the street are built with eaves and canopies. This is the case with people in the market, on weekdays, this family unconsciously builds a shed in front of the door, and the family secretly builds a circle overnight.

These places were built as stores. Some stores are built at home, or floating houses are built directly in front of the door, saying that they are temporary stalls, but in fact they are encroaching on the street and occupying the road. As for the buildings along the river, they were not taken into account and were built directly on the riverbank.

Either you built my house, or you occupied my land, or I saw you expand three feet in front of the door, and I also expanded three feet in front of the door.

This Shuinan New Street could accommodate three horse-drawn carriages in parallel at the beginning, but later it became two, and now it is difficult to have one.

Zhang Yue came to the house and knocked on the door, but saw that it was Yu who opened the door.

"Uncle...... Are you back from school? Yu Shi was a little surprised and a little happy, and there was some concern between his eyebrows.

Zhang Yue nodded and said, "I don't have homework today, I took leave from my husband and went home to see my brother and sister-in-law." ”

"It's fine. Uncle walked all the way, fast into the house to rest. ”

Zhang Yue felt a little strange, and when he went home, he seemed to be a guest. When I arrived at home, it was a little different from before, with miscellaneous items piled up everywhere, and I heard the sound of children walking upstairs, and the sound of children jumping and walking.

Zhang Yue said in his heart, this is not Zhang Qiu. Although Zhang Qiu is young, his temperament is calm, and he will no longer be like this.

Yu Shi brought water to Zhang Yue and explained: "Yes, the daughter-in-law of Aunt Xu, who sells fish, she has no husband at a young age, and now she has a two-year-old child, which is not easy." They are now living in our house with Aunt Xu. Although two hundred yuan a month is less, Aunt Xu often sends us some fish that cannot be sold, so we can save two or three hundred dollars. ”

My sister-in-law is really good at budgeting, and I originally thought that a woman from such a big family would not be able to run a house.

Zhang Yue smiled: "It's good, I remember that Xi'er likes to eat fish, speaking of Xi'er, he went to the school?" ”

"Yes, I'll be back in the afternoon," at the mention of Zhang Qiu, Yu's tired face was a little happy, "Uncle is going back to Wuxi after lunch?" ”

Zhang Yue's expression stiffened slightly, and then said, "Well, yes, what about my brother?" ”

Yu said: "Shilang went to the shopkeeper of the tea restaurant, I thought that I could settle accounts and do some things, but he called others to run errands, and sometimes went to ask for debts with a smiling face. ”

Zhang Yue felt sorry for his eldest brother, it turned out that he was also running a shop, and he was a decent businessman, but now he was running errands for people, and the identity gap was too big.

Zhang Yue got up and untied the package on his back, and then said: "Sister-in-law, there is nothing in Wuxi, this is some mountain goods, I have to go to the city for a trip, and I will come back to see my brother and Xi'er." ”

After that, Zhang Yue put down the package and got up.

Yu Shi also got up, and she was a little embarrassed and said, "Then uncle will come back early, and I will cook your rice." ”

"Okay."

After Zhang Yue left, Yu Shi opened the package, but saw that there were some rabbit skin mushroom bamboo shoots inside, which were really some mountain goods.

Of course, mountain goods are not worth a lot of money in the mountains, but they are worth a lot in the city. Zhang Yue's thin body walked early in the morning and brought things from the mountains to the city to bring things to his family, which shows that he has this home in his heart.

"Uncle him," Yu's eyes were a little complicated, "it's really much more sensible." ”

After Zhang Yue put down the mountain goods, he entered the city from Nanpu Bridge.

He didn't go anywhere else, but went to find Peng Jingyi. It's easy for me to come back, and I'm definitely going to see my friends. When Zhang Yue arrived at his home, he learned from his family that Peng Jingyi had gone to Renshou Village.

Zhang Yue left a message and went to the residence of the lieutenant of Peng County.

Zhang Yue pounced again, the county lieutenant Peng was on an errand in the county office, Zhang Yue put down the mulberry tea he brought, and then went out of the city and went home.

At this time, the elder brother and Zhang Qiu both returned.

Zhang Qiu was very happy to see Zhang Yue coming back, and as soon as he met, he said, "Third uncle, I have memorized all the three-character scriptures you taught me." ”

"The third uncle doesn't believe it! Listen to me! Zhang Yue said.

Immediately, Zhang Qiu kept reciting it all the way from 'the beginning of man, nature is good', at this time, Yu Shi was in the kitchen with food, and his brother was wearing a short shirt to wash his face.

Zhang Qiu said slowly with a childish recitation, which clearly fell on everyone's ears.

The elder brother smiled while washing his face, and Yu Shi also turned his head to look here from time to time.

When Zhangqiu is north to 'diligent and meritorious, the play is useless. Quit, should be reluctant. ’

Zhang Yue was overjoyed and said: "Xi'er, it's so amazing!" Not only did I memorize it, but I also had a good word. ”

Zhang Qiu listened to Zhang Yue's praise and smiled shyly.

"Okay, don't pester your third uncle, set the dishes and chopsticks!" Yu brought a plate of fish to the table, and then walked to the side of the corridor.

"Aunt Xu, my uncle is back, and the family has cooked more of these dishes, and he has come down to eat some of them."

A voice came from upstairs: "Thank you, lady, we have used ......"

The two sides said a few polite words, but Sister-in-law Xu didn't come down to eat.

And Zhang Yue and Zhang Qiu had already set up the dishes and chopsticks. Zhang Yue saw that the table was full of five or six dishes. Although they are all home-cooked dishes, there is nothing better in the world than home-cooked food.

Zhang Shi sat on the main seat as usual and said to Zhang Shi: "When did you arrive home?" ”

Zhang Yue answered truthfully.

Zhang Shi was very happy to hear that Zhang Yue had come back to Peng County, and immediately said, "That's it." The last time the case was overturned, our brothers all relied on Lieutenant Peng. Now that they've helped you, you won't move around, which is a big taboo. ”

"It's not that we will rely on Lieutenant Peng in the future, but the millennium of favors, you have to remember this carefully."

Zhang Yue nodded again and again: "Brother's words, I remember." ”

Zhang Shi smiled: "I can see that County Lieutenant Peng still values you more." ”

"Did you two finish talking? The dishes are cold. Yu Shi also walked to the table after finishing his work.

At this time, Zhang Qiu said in a milky voice: "Mother, can I move chopsticks?" ”

Zhang Shi cried and laughed: "Yes, yes, our brothers patronized and talked about business, and even forgot that Xi'er was hungry." ”

So everyone moved their chopsticks.

Zhang Shi smiled at Yu Shi again: "Zhang Luo has such a big table of dishes, which makes people think that there are guests in our house." ”

Yu said with a smile: "Uncle is his own family, it's easy to come back, how can he treat him lightly?" ”

Zhang Yue hurriedly said: "I'm really tired of my sister-in-law." ”

Yu Shi smiled slightly.

Zhang Shi smiled and said to Zhang Yue: "What does the family say about this?" It's hard to come back, so I'll stay at home tonight and go back early tomorrow morning! ”

After Zhang Shi finished speaking, he heard Yu Shi cough lightly.

Zhang Shi changed his words again: "Also, there is no place at home, so the third brother might as well go to Cao Baozheng's house for a night." ”

On the side, Yu Shi was muffled and did not speak.

Zhang Yue hurriedly said: "Brother doesn't need it, there is still homework in the school, I need to rush back." ”

Zhang Shi nodded, and then said no more.

So after the family finished eating, Zhang Yue packed his bags and left home, otherwise it would be very dangerous to walk the mountain road in the evening.

Zhang Qiu walked to the door and looked at himself, with a reluctant expression: "Third uncle, when will you come back?" ”

Zhang Yue touched Zhang Qiu's head and said: "Third uncle, I will come back after I have finished studying, you must listen to your father's words at home, remember to memorize books, and study diligently, just like the three-character scripture says, 'diligence is meritorious, and drama is useless.'" Do you remember it? ”

Zhang Qiu said: "Third uncle, you sleep lazily all day long, and you still talk about me!" ”

After saying this, Zhang Yue didn't go out of the door without looking back, seeing this scene, Zhang Qiu's tears fell down with a click, he was sad for a while, and forgot to tell Zhang Yue that he accidentally told Master Meng one day that the third uncle taught him to memorize the three-character scripture.

At this time, Zhang Shi sent Zhang Qiu out of the door, and waited for a long time. Zhang Shi glanced back, then took out a bag of money from his pocket and put it in Zhang Yue's hand and said, "When you get to the school, study hard, but don't embarrass yourself, the money is tight." ”

Zhang Yue said: "Brother, I still have the money you gave me last time." Not so much. ”

Zhang Shi said with a smile: "Life at home is still passable, you don't have to save it." Everything has my brother and me. ”

Isn't everything old Tarzan?

Zhang Yue's heart was full of doubts, but he still accepted the money bag, and then said goodbye to Zhang Shi and embarked on the way home.

And Zhang Shi returned home again, he saw Yu Shi and immediately scolded: "Third uncle, it's so easy to come back, why did you drive him away?" Can't even stay for one night? ”

Yu Shi listened and said, "Don't you remember what you said?" When Sister-in-law Xu lived in our house, we promised him that my uncle lived in the school and would not come back except for the New Year's holidays. Since we have agreed to others, we should get things done. ”

"If you don't stay for one night, I don't think Sister-in-law Xu cares." Zhang said truthfully.

Yu Shi frowned and said: "I'm also worried about you Shilang, I'm worried that my uncle will suddenly run back without saying a word this time, and I don't want to read it." You have to know that it's hard to be outside, but it's good to be at home. Studying in the mountains is so hard, what if the third uncle goes home to live, feels comfortable, is lazy and lazy, and refuses to go back to the mountains? Since he wants to study, we also promise to let him study for two or three years, so we can't let him give up halfway, no matter how hard he is, he has to continue reading! ”

Zhang Shi nodded when he heard this, he couldn't figure it out at first, but later he also felt that what he said made sense.

Zhang Yue walked for a long time, and after returning to Guo Xuexue, the first thing he did was to find Guo Lin and ask him: "Can you also count me in the matter of going to the Zhang clan to learn to copy books?" ”
