This little beggar is none other than Liu Dasha, who got the dog's leftover three cents this morning. Because of the injury of his left leg, he was unable to walk, so he picked up a long stick on the side of the road and limped away.

I ate meat steamed buns last night, and now I can still eat Granny Cao's white flour cookcakes. I was happy in my heart, and I unconsciously hummed the song that my mother often hummed.

Maybe it was the old eyes that were dizzy, and when the person got closer, he recognized Liu Dasha! sighed, and said in my heart, this is also a poor baby. I heard that I broke my skull when I was a child, and I have not been well and often get sick. At a young age, he lost his father and mother, and became a little beggar who was hated by others. Alas, poor baby.

Granny Cao sighed several times in a row, and when Dasha came to her, she said softly: "Dasha, but you still haven't eaten breakfast?" ”

The big fool nodded, staring straight at the steamer with his eyes hooked and not speaking. Seeing this, Grandma Cao knew that he was hungry and had no copper money to buy, so she took out a nest cake with a tong and handed it to him.

"Here, let's eat it while it's hot!"

But when he saw the big fool, he didn't stretch out his hand to take it, but just shook his head vigorously, and his eyes were still staring at the steamer in a daze.

"This kid is so big, I guess it's not enough to eat," so he took another one and handed it over.

The big fool still didn't answer, and a pair of eyes looked straight at the white cooker in the steamer.

Well, this kid is afraid that he is hungry, and he wants to eat cooking cakes, and he is too embarrassed to speak. That's it, and it's not a few copper coins. Her own Bao'er also often plays with a few of them. Alas, poor baby!

Grandma Cao sighed, then took out two of them from the steamer where the cooking cakes were placed, and handed them over.

I saw this big fool open his mouth, revealing a mouthful of big white teeth, holding one in his left hand, biting one in his mouth, and eating it vigorously, he stopped after eating a few bites, held the cooking cake in his mouth, and groped for a while with his hand, and saw him holding three copper coins in his hand and slowly handed them over.

After looking at the copper coin, Grandma Cao realized that the family had come to buy cooking cakes today. This kid doesn't open his mouth to say that he is too bad! No wonder people are always called 'fools and fools', alas, I don't know if this disease can be cured, poor baby.

Stretched out his hand and took it and threw it into the cash box, took a cooking cake from the cage, and handed it to Dasha, "Big man, the two may not be able to eat enough, mother-in-law will give you another one to eat!" ”

Dasha looked at the cooking cake in his hand, he really didn't expect to eat one more, and laughed happily! The cake in his mouth fell to the ground. But both of them were holding cooking cakes in their hands, and they were anxious to bite with their mouths, and Grandma Cao shook her head!

Pat Dasha and help him pick up the cooking cake that fell on the ground, blow the soil off it, and put it on a bamboo plate on the side. He pulled Dasha to sit down, poured a bowl of tea and told him that he was not in a hurry, just eat slowly with this water, and there was no more.

Look at this, a child without a father is really pitiful!

Watching Dasha eating cooking cakes on a low stool, he suddenly remembered his own Bao'er, and in an instant, a nameless anger rose in his belly!

Picked up the rolling pin next to him and walked to the back room angrily, and then there was a crackling sound of "bamboo shoots fried meat" in the room, accompanied by Bao's loud howl and Cao's scolding.

"Let you sleep, you see that the little beggars have gotten up and come out to beg for food, you lazy baby is still lying in the nest! If I don't teach you some lessons, I'll see you all like a slob! After speaking, there was another sound of fried meat on bamboo boards.

After eating the cooking cake in three or two bites, he picked up the tea soup in the bowl and drank it in one gulp, regardless of whether it was hot or not, and then picked up the stick next to him and prepared to leave. At this moment, a thin figure burst out of the door.

I saw him, wearing a green cloth coat, a crooked hand tied with a button, one less shoe under his feet, a tall nose bridge under his yellow thin face, and a small black mole on the corner of his mouth.

He is the treasure that Grandma Cao often talks about, and he usually likes to listen to those martial arts stories of the rivers and lakes! kept shouting that he wanted to worship a stick master to practice martial arts, and then walk the rivers and lakes. It's just that she was beaten with a stick by Granny Cao, and she didn't dare to mention anything about walking the rivers and lakes anymore.

I saw that Cao Abao went out and saw the big fool pestle on the street, and he was instantly startled, and hurriedly made a gesture of "flat sand and falling geese", and shouted "Bah!" in his mouth. Where did the man come from, he came early in the morning to seek revenge! Let the horses come over and let the Sprinklers try your martial arts! After speaking, I saw that Dasha was still holding a stick in his hand. Hurriedly put away the gesture, put his hands behind his back, and said lightly: "The rivers and lakes pay attention to fairness and justice, since you have prepared a weapon, you have to find one!" It's only fair to fight like this. ”

Dasha on the side hurriedly dropped the stick that was used as a crutch, waved his hand again and again, and said: "I don't fight, I don't fight, I'm just here to eat cooking cakes!" ”

Cao Bao'er laughed when she saw him throw the stick, crossed her waist with one hand and pointed at him with the other, and said, "You guy, give up your weapon and surrender before you start fighting!" Didn't you listen to the name of my Bao'er hero on the rivers and lakes and was scared? After speaking, he put his hand on his forehead and thought about it: "Since you have admitted defeat and surrendered, the rivers and lakes have words first." Sprinkle your family and let you live! ”

After speaking, he continued to cross his waist with his hands, looking at the sky and imagining the appearance of the hero, but a sharp pain in his butt interrupted his imagination. When I turned my head, I saw my grandmother holding a shoe in her hand, and she was looking at herself with an angry face! Cao Bao'er hurriedly bent down, and said to Grandma Cao with a flattering smile: "Grandmother, I'm just playing around with Dasha, I'm not fighting!" ”

Grandma Cao nodded Ah Bao's forehead heavily with her hand, and said, "Don't play fools anymore, and don't say anything about the rivers and lakes!" Put on your shoes and eat cooking cakes and go out to play, don't make noise in front of the old body and make me angry! ”

Cao Abao listened, hurriedly put on his shoes, took two cooking cakes casually, and left with Dasha.

Not to mention what moths they tossed out.

The dog and the two brothers washed their hands and faces, and wiped their hair with a sackcloth dipped in water. I looked at each other, except for the ugly patches on top of the patches on my clothes, everything else was quite pleasing to the eye.

The two of them didn't go to eat the morning food, thinking that if they could go to Zhang's house for a meal, it would be a good luck. If not, then endure it and eat the meat steamed buns at noon on an empty stomach. Wouldn't it be better? After drinking two mouths of well water to coax his stomach, he took a burlap bag and walked to Zhang Yuanwai's house in Dongchengfang.

Domestic helpers, also called short-term workers, and long-term workers, are the names of some wealthy families who temporarily hire people from outside at certain times when they are short of manpower! According to the length of employment, it is divided into long-term and short-term jobs. It depends on the different types of work, which are divided into skilled workers and ordinary small workers.

The dog was left with the two of them doing the work of these small workers, such as running errands, passing on words, doing odd jobs, etc.

This job does not require any personal skills, almost anyone can do it, of course, the salary is also different, it is the least given among the helpers.

Fortunately, in ancient times, domestic servants went to work in the lord's house, and the lord's family needed to provide at least one meal. Of course, depending on the work, there are times when it is not necessary, provided that it is clarified with the servants so that the family can bring their own dry food.

Rich families like Zhang Yuanwai all provide two meals, not to mention catching up with such a scene as a funeral. With so many people employed, plus his own servants and maidservants, there must have been a lot of food reserved in the kitchen, so it would be no problem to find an opportunity to ask the cook for some leftovers to eat.

The thought of the cook gave me a headache. I promised yesterday, and I had to pick up a jar of water for him today, and I blamed myself for not paying attention to asking yesterday, alas.

I didn't eat enough last night, and this morning I only drank some water, and my stomach was rumbling with hunger. Look at the back door of Zhang's mansion, hurry up and take two quick steps, thinking about getting in early and finding something to eat to fill your stomach.

At this time, it was the time to go to work, and many people lined up at the door to enter, and no matter how hungry they were, they could only stand obediently and wait in the back. While soothing his stomach, he slowly moved forward. It took a quarter of an hour to wait for the two of them.

It's still yesterday's steward, sitting with a brush in his hand and registering. When he saw the dog coming, he asked, "Name?" ”

"I call the dog, he calls the dog."

The steward wrote their names in the register. With his head down, he rummaged through the register next to him. He looked up and said, "It was the two of you." Last night a certain family went back to look carefully. I couldn't find the register of the two of you, and I went to ask the little three, who knew that the little three left the mansion yesterday afternoon and never returned! It's hurting my brain, but fortunately I met Zhang Da Steward, he still has some impressions of the two of you, and he said to a certain family, this is the end of this matter! Otherwise, your wages of yesterday will not be made up today. I can only wait for that little three to come back! ”

After saying that, he picked up a blue-covered ledger from the side. Flip to yesterday's page and write the name of the dog in a certain column. He looked up at a booklet with a yellow cover and said, "Yesterday's steward on duty inspected your work and cleaned up a utility room. It's careful, and it's excellent! Prize money three articles. A total of 33 wages were recorded. Today, you have to be serious and clean up the other utility room. ”

After speaking, he handed the dog a palm-sized piece of bamboo. On the front is the dog's name, and on the back is some brief text introductions such as appearance, age, and what he does. After explaining that he had lost the penny, he waved his hand to let the dog go. The dog hurriedly said something, dodged away, and let the dog behind him come over, only to see that he also got such a brand.

The two of them breathed a sigh of relief, their identities were finally whitewashed, and they could stay in this courtyard generously. I thought that I actually earned thirty-three copper coins yesterday, and I still have thirty coins to take today!

It's good luck that I got in by accident this time. Besides, I was fortunate enough to eat the sweet meat buns yesterday, and I may have to eat them today, and my heart is happy in an instant. Even the dog leftover said again and again, "I hope that the dead old man Zhang can be buried later!" ”

The dog knew it couldn't be, and Daddy had told him about it. Their customs here in Yuchuan are not like other places, and the custom here is to be buried on three days and three days!

The steps of convergence, funeral, spirituality, and convergence are completed within three days, and there is no need to use the "cremation" that is popular at the moment to the Shishen class.

The coffin had to be buried in a dug grave after being left at home for three days.

This Zhang Mansion, today is just a small day, and it is necessary to collect some of the clothes and favorite utensils of the old man Zhang before his death, and those servants and stewards are looking for them everywhere, as for the eldest son and the second son, they want to report the funeral everywhere outside.

That Zhang Xiaosan, who left the house yesterday and did not return, is estimated to have reported his funeral. There is no need to look for him at the moment, these people usually run several in a row on one route, and they may not be able to come back today.

There are those mourners who carry a little back, spread a long way to the ground, and ride a horse and boat all the way to play back and forth for half a year!

Today's Great Song Dynasty, the north is fighting almost every year, and all the mountains in the south are carrying the king's flag, and the road is stuck! If you don't care about walking alone, you will be slaughtered and buried in a corner of Gela as fertilizer.

Therefore, those unimportant people generally mail letters, and those who can send people to report their funerals are some close family members who are studying abroad and doing business! It's not okay not to go.

Therefore, when encountering such a type of home, in order to prevent the mourner from not doing his best and running away halfway, he will generally send the family to give birth to a child, which happens to be familiar with the bereaved person, and it is also convenient for them to inquire about things.

Thinking about it this way, I'm afraid that this Zhang San won't be able to come back for a while, and the matter of promising to process money for himself is estimated to be yellow. Fortunately, if you have meat steamed buns to eat, forget about the two copper coins!
