Chapter Ninety-Two: A Strange Old Man

After finishing speaking, he looked at Qin Hui with a cannibalistic gaze, quickly knelt on the ground, and said curtly: "The old slave is also distressed and annoyed, there is no other meaning!" ”

Qin Hui on the side snorted coldly and pointed at him and scolded: "I'm a lot old, and I still speak so openly, and being heard for no reason will cause a lot of trouble for grandpa!" Carefully I tear your mouth apart! ”

The old butler who knelt on the ground hurriedly kowtowed and said, "Yes, yes, what Xiangye taught me is that the old slave will not dare to talk nonsense in the future!" ”

Seeing that his head was red and swollen, Qin Hui nodded and said, "Get out, if it weren't for the hardships you had followed me to the Northland, I would have cut off your dog's head and kicked it as a ball, where you can always say the wrong thing!" ”

The old housekeeper on the ground hurriedly got up, poured a cup of hot tea for Qin Hui with a smile, and said: "I can serve you in this life, it is the blessing of the old slave for eight lifetimes, if it weren't for Xiangye, you rescued me back then, the little dog's head would have already fallen in the north, thank you for not giving up the old slave a bowl of rice to eat, as long as you open your mouth, I will give it to you at any time!" ”

Qin Hui was also happy to hear the words, and when he finished speaking, he scolded him with a smile and said: "Everyone is sheltered under the wings of the old emperor, if we don't feed him, we will become his meal, if I shouldn't go down this errand, this prime minister's seat will not be able to sit, without this position, our life will not be peaceful!" ”

Watching the old butler stretch out his hand in astonishment and point to the north!

Qin Hui shook his head, sighed and continued to explain to him: "Even if someone from the north comes to help, it won't work, after all, far water can't quench your thirst!" ”

The old housekeeper nodded and said, "Then 100,000 is not too much, why do you want to recruit people from all three roads?" It's just all the way south, and that's enough! ”

Qin Hui smiled and said: "How can your stupid brain understand, dragons are insatiable, this time when he sees that I should promise 100,000 yuan, he can let me give another 100,000 yuan, maybe there will be more, I heard that this Chinese New Year, many concubines in the palace have not sent out the clothes and money, one by one disgraced and provocative jokes, I can't say that he will take this opportunity to solve it in one shot!" ”

The old housekeeper nodded, and said helplessly: "Then in this case, at least 250,000 yuan must be raised?" ”

Qin Hui smiled, "Two hundred and fifty thousand? Not enough for my money tonight! ”

The old butler looked at him curiously.

"My shrimp tail is not so delicious, tonight's big businessmen have to pay at least 100,000 yuan each, by the way, is Li Rugu here?"

The old housekeeper hurriedly nodded and said: "Li Yuanshi has already come, not only him, but also Master Yang and Zeng Fenglang, and they are also here, and they are accompanying Xi Langjun to have tea!" ”

Qin Hui nodded, took out the paper he had written before from his hand again, opened it and looked at it slowly, looked up at the maids and servants waiting in the house for a while, and said softly: "The country's wealth is insufficient, and those of us who eat the emperor's grain must also accompany the court to be thrifty, there are too many servants in this house, let's dismiss them!" ”

The old housekeeper was stunned for a moment, looked left and right, and asked, "It's only been a month since this batch, have they all been processed?" ”

As soon as the words came out, he looked at Qin Hui and frowned, quickly stretched out his palm, patted his face a few times and said: "Look at the old slave's mouth, the older you get, the more verbose it becomes, don't worry, the old slave will deal with it immediately, and I guarantee that I won't miss a word!" ”

Qin Hui waved his hand, and the old housekeeper hurriedly led a group of servants out.

"Be thrifty and thrifty! Thrift! If you save any more, you have to drink plain water! The dog scolded fiercely.

As the saying goes, no more than the first month of the year is a year, and only half of the year has passed, and all the rice and grain prepared have been eaten cleanly.

The dog once again realized the combat effectiveness of his group of little babies, sighed and dropped the dishes and chopsticks, walked into the east house, lifted the straw mat of the kang head, the innermost was a palm-sized wooden board, and pulled out the wooden board to reveal a loose adobe brick.

Once, this money bag was full of money, but now it is flat and can't bear to look at it directly.

Back in the shed, looking at Dasha still having fun, the dog sighed.

"Dog leftovers, go buy some rice tomorrow and come back!"

The dog replied, took the money bag and pinned it to his waist at will, and continued to run and play, the dog looked at the money bag up and down, and his heart was also entangled, the family's food was all in it, if it was lost, okay! I'm starting to be cautious again.

The sun rises in the east, and a new day starts again, playing crazy in the morning, and obediently holding the sand table and futon in the afternoon to the tea shop in the East Market.

The dog is still standing at the door, every time a little baby comes over and the dog has to bow his hand, sometimes the dog will randomly find a few little babies to ask how the words were written yesterday, have you forgotten.

If it is written, the dog praises it, but if it can't be written, he stretches out his left hand, lightly sticks, and dares to grin his teeth and shout loudly that he will come to another stick.

was having a good time, listening to someone coughing next to him, the dog turned his head to look, a forty-year-old man, wearing a plain brocade robe, wearing a staff hat on his head, was looking at the dog with a curious face.

Frowning, he thought about it and didn't recognize this person, and seeing that he didn't bring the baby over, he hugged his fist and asked, "Uncle, the kid is polite, do you need to find the kid for anything?" ”

The member laughed and said: "It's nothing, I heard that you have opened a school here, and there are many little babies here to learn literacy for free, so come and take a look!" You go and do your own thing. ”

Don't go to visit relatives and friends during the Chinese New Year, even if it's drinking and tea, it's much more interesting than coming here to watch a bunch of big and small babies learn to read and write!

Seeing that he was dressed neatly, he must not be bored to play with it, so he immediately hugged his fists and saluted again: "Don't dare to hide it from the old man, the boys just get together and know some words randomly, and they should not open the school hall to say, if the old man is interested, you can come in and have a look!" ”

The outsider laughed and said, "With this in mind, I won't get in the way of Mr. Xiao if I go in, right?" ”

The words in his mouth were very polite, but the body was very sincere, and as soon as the curtain was lifted, he walked in, and the dog pouted and followed.

As soon as this foot stepped in, I heard Xiaolang shouting behind me: "Sir, sir, don't close the door, please wait for the boy!" ”

The dog smiled and didn't care about the member, turned around and went out again, looked at the running snoring Xiaolang and said, "You came early today!" ”

The little man quickly stopped, clasped his fists and saluted the dog: "The kid is already running fast on the road, but it's still late!" ”

The dog waved his hand and said, "It's okay, it's okay, just come here, come in quickly, it's going to start today!" ”

Xiao Lang said yes and followed the dog into the house.

As soon as he entered the house, the dog looked for the old man who came in first, and saw that he had also found a futon, and sat in the corner of the last row of the west hall, chatting with a teenage baby in front of him.

The dog originally wanted to go over and ask again, but when he didn't seem to want to deal with himself, he snorted, thinking to himself, anyway, he didn't make any mistakes, let him go!

Thinking about it like this, my heart suddenly brightened, and I stood in the middle of the aisle with a cough, and there were about eighty little babies who came today.

Divided into east and west, he knelt opposite each other, the sand table was placed in front of his body, with a small wooden stick in his left hand and a bag of fine sand in his right hand, looking at the dog with his little head on his back with great interest.

It's been about ten days since I started talking, and I have long lost my nervousness, so I said aloud: "Today we come to study time!" ”

Then the dog walked to the counter, where there was a wooden board in the shape of a "well", and the dog took a piece of white paper from the counter and put it on it, and nailed it with a big round copper nail, and then held a brush and wrote down the word "zi".

After writing this word, the dog turned to the crowd and said, "The day is divided into twelve hours, I think you all know!" ”

Seeing that everyone nodded in unison, the dog continued: "As the so-called 'midnight hour', the starting point of the day is from the sub-hour, so the first hour of the twelve hours is the 'sub-hour'!" Look at me carefully and write that stroke first! ”

After saying that, he rewrote a subword on the white paper at the back.

Then he turned around and said to the crowd: "Son, that's how it is written, you must remember, come, write it on your sand table, and ask if you will be left and right."

A group of little babies hurriedly lowered their heads and wrote, and even the old man was holding a wooden stick and pulling on the ground.

Dogs: ......

Didn't you really come to learn to read?

As the so-called "look at the way you look and dress up, distinguish people and listen to the talk", the old man gives himself the feeling that he doesn't look like Bai Ding, he really can't figure it out, and he doesn't make trouble when he sits on the side in a proper manner, so the dog lets him stay there.

"This word is pronounced '巳', the sixth hour of the twelfth hour, also known as Riyu, which means that it is almost noon, at this point in time, everyone has to go out to work, and the people who are still staying at home at this point are called lazy people, teach you a skill, if you want to be lazy in the future, this point must not lie at home, so as not to be scolded by the elders as 'lazy ghosts'!"

A group of babies laughed loudly, and said in a loud voice: "Then it's not too late for us to miss this point and go to sleep!" ”

The dog nodded and smiled: "That's the best, because at this hour, your family can't wait for you to sleep on the kang and not come down!" ”

After saying that, he wrote the word "noon" after the word "巳".

Then he pointed to the word and said, "Do you recognize this word?" ”

Everyone shouted in unison: "Yes! ”

Some people even shouted: "We all know the word noon for dinner!" ”

The dog laughed and said, "By the way, it's the afternoon of dinner, and it's also the time when the sun is in the middle!" Therefore, when you write the word '巳' in front of you, you must think about the noon word for dinner! ”

"Come, write down both of these words!"

Everyone picked up the short wooden stick and began to write on the sand table, and the dog also took the opportunity to walk down and look left and right along the middle aisle.

There are really a few idiots who can't even write at noon, and there is a clever ghost, seeing the dog coming over, afraid of being laughed at, pretending to be inattentive and knocking the sand table to the ground, and then being sued by the little friend next to him.
