Chapter 15 The Tooth Shop Servant

Zhu Qiang followed Cheng Daqi to the county office, and Zhu Wenyuan took Zhu Zhenguo directly to the street in the south of the city. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 When Uncle Zhu Wenguang came to the county to study, he placed an industry on the county commercial street, with two shops in front and a small courtyard behind the shop, and four wings in the yard. The small house for commercial and residential purposes, the front shop was rented to a small merchant selling silk and satin, and the back wing room was the residence of the two brothers Zhu Wenyuan and Zhu Wenguang.

The commercial street is not far from the county school, which is also convenient for reading and can earn some rent. In this era, there is no such thing as the number of years of property rights, and the land, house, and real estate purchased have been the property of the family for generations.

In fact, the county school does not need to go to school every day, only a few days at the beginning of each month to teach, and the people in the county are full of learning to exchange experiences with these talents, and sometimes the county master will also come and go. Nominally, these county scholars are all students of the county master, and they will also need the county master's note to go to the county town of Qiufu in the future, that is, the approval and recommendation of the county master.

These students also regularly visit the county magistrates, nominally to ask for teaching, but in fact, they are also gifts to pull feelings, not only for themselves, but also for the descendants of the family to pave the way, this county master is one of the chief examiners of the county exam, and the rest of the family will also rely on him to carry the exam in the future.

Zhu Wenyuan saw that the eldest brother said things briefly on the road, put down Zhu Zhenguo and asked a small servant to take care of him, and the two of them rushed to the county office, this is an important opportunity to show their faces in front of the teacher, and they can't miss it. Of course, you also have to go to the street to buy gifts that are neither too expensive nor too stingy.

The gift is expensive, and the county magistrate is afraid that people will say that he is greedy for money, so he will not accept it, and the gift will definitely make the magistrate unhappy. Most of the literati are like this, they want both the inside and the face. Gift-giving is also a university question.

Zhu Zhenguo temporarily entered the uncle's room and sat down, and after a while, he was bored, and walked through the courtyard to the door of the silk shop to sit, and the little guy also came out and stood along.

Zhu Zhenguo sat on the stone steps in front of the shop, looking at the passers-by and feeling like a world away. The bustling world of commerce in the past and the people on the street now intersect in an instant.

Zhu Zhenguo just sat in a daze, and the little guy next to him looked at the little young master in a daze, and he didn't know what the little young master was thinking.

An hour passed, and when he saw the fourth uncle coming back from a distance, Zhu Zhenguo came back to his senses and asked, "Fourth uncle, what about Uncle Qiang?" ”

Wen Guang took his nephew with one hand, and replied: "Daqiang, they went to the hospital." ”

Zhu Zhenguo also remembered that although two people were not seriously injured and did not shed too much blood, they still had to go to the hospital to prescribe some gold sore medicine to be insured. At this time, Wen Guang had already taken Zhu Zhenguo over and picked him up, and walked towards the courtyard.

"Big brother, my mother has something to say to you." After entering the hall, the two brothers sat down, and Zhu Wenguang still hugged Zhu Zhenguo on his body. Sitting down, Zhu Wenyuan said.

"I roughly know what's going on, when the county town comes back next year, no matter whether I win or not, I will settle the marriage first, and you will be the same with the fourth brother, the second brother will also talk about family affairs, and there will be individuals to take care of them in the future." Zhu Wenguang obviously knew that this was probably what his mother said, and replied directly.

"The eldest brother knew, and the younger brother didn't say much, anyway, the mother's words were brought. Mother has one more thing to tell. Zhu Wenyuan also smiled bitterly when he heard his eldest brother's words.

"And commands?" Zhu Wenguang heard that his mother still had something to explain, and he was also a little cautious.

"My mother instructed me to go into the city this time and ask my eldest brother to buy a beautiful girl in the hands of the people in the city, the same size as Guo'er, saying that it was a personal maid for Guo'er." Zhu Wen is far away. Renyazi is also a human trafficker in ancient times, of course, a legal human trafficker, and the trafficking of human beings has a lot of origins, including the families of major criminals, and there are also families with too many people and not enough rations to sell their children, so they generally sell their daughters and rarely buy their sons. It is not excluded that there are black hand abduction, there are still a lot of abduction in this era, and it is generally difficult to find it back after being trafficked.

"It's still my mother who thinks thoughtfully, you and my brother are just this child now, and Guo'er is usually a little boring, so it's good to find a companion." Zhu Wenguang agreed very much in his heart. Although the Zhu family has been in decline for twenty or thirty years, these twenty or thirty years have been relatively difficult, but now there are two talents in the family, and there are no taxes. Guo'er is smart, and if you are older, you can also have a scholar or something.

"Big brother, then let's go to Yahang after lunch." Zhu Wenyuan knew that the matter was decided, the task was completed, and he was also relaxed.

"I'm going with me, I'm going with me... Zhu Zhenguo shouted in Wen Guang's arms, knowing that he was choosing a ring for himself, of course, he had to go and see it, and he couldn't buy a plate with five big faces and three big faces.

"Haha... Just go with the country. Zhu Wenguang laughed.

Zhu Wenyuan also smiled when he heard Zhu Zhenguo's trouble, and suddenly seemed to remember something and hurriedly said: "Big brother, there is one more thing, a great thing." ”

Zhu Wenguang looked at the fourth brother as he spoke, and while taking out something from the inner pocket in his arms, he said, "What else is a good thing?" ”

"Big brother, look at this, the words made by the roadside of Guo'er." Zhu Wenyuan took the spread paper and handed it over as if offering a treasure.

Wen Guang spread out the paper and looked at it carefully, and said in disbelief: "Is it really made by Guo'er?" You did it yourself, and you used it to bluff me. ”

Brother Wen Yuanjian didn't believe it, and hurriedly said the cause and effect of Zhu Zhenguo's lyrics on the road, and also said that there was also a poem that was written in general, one piece, two pieces, three or four pieces...

Zhu Zhenguo also helped on the side: "I did it, I think it will be made in a while." ”

Zhu Wenguang believed it, laughed again, praised again, and read the words aloud again. Then he praised it even more, and laughed until the servant came to see that the meal was ready.

During the meal, the two brothers were laughing and tasting the poems, one said that Qingshan County rarely had such words, and the other said that there were few in the county. The elder of the cabinet is a cabinet scholar, and now it means to be the prime minister. Although there are many exaggerations, but if you think about it carefully, if this nephew keeps growing up in this state, it will be famous all over the world, and the Zhu family is afraid that he has a great future.

After nearly an hour of eating, the sun was over the sky and it was going to the west. The two brothers were slightly drunk, and Zhu Wenguang went out with his nephew and Wenyuan.

When I went out, I saw Zhu Qiang and a few people coming back, there were two men who bandaged it tightly, in ancient times, there was no wound stitching, the knife wounds were mostly burned, a bowl of hemp boiled down, the injured were half dizzy and half awake, the doctor took the red-hot iron sheet and scalded it directly on both sides of the wound, and immediately removed the iron sheet, sprinkled with gold sore medicine, tied the wound tightly with a bandage, and forcibly squeezed the wound together. Then prescribe some herbal prescriptions for oral combination.

Although the method is cruel, the effect is not bad, as long as it is not infected, the wound will slowly grow up, but the scar left behind is particularly scary.

After some treatment, when the two wounded woke up from the daze, an hour had passed, in current terms, it was two hours, and a few people slowly helped the two wounded back, it seems that the anesthetic effect of the numbness is really good, and the two wounded are still weak in their legs.

Zhu Wenguang's brothers turned back in a hurry, instructed the servants to cook, and arranged for the two of them to lie on their brothers' beds, thanked and explained, and when the arrangements were made properly, half an hour had passed, and the two brothers took Zhu Zhenguo to the teeth again.

The tooth shop is a little far away, and it has always been in the far corner of the south of the city, after all, it is a somewhat inhumane industry, so it is inconvenient to put it on the street. After all, Zhu Zhenguo is six years old, he has been very nutritious since he was a child, and he has some weight in his hand, in order not to reach his destination as soon as possible, and he can't put it down to let him walk by himself, the brothers took turns holding Zhu Zhenguo, and after a quarter of an hour, they finally arrived at Yaxing.
