Three, four, dead heart
Li Bao stuffed his head and ran back to his house.
At this time, it was getting late, and there were beating lights everywhere, but Li Bao's house was dark.
For Li Bao, this has become accustomed to it. In the years since he became sensible, his family has been like this, after all, his family is poor, relying on the third aunt to pretend to be a ghost and help people do some odd jobs, where can he afford lamp oil.
It's already good to be able to fill his belly!
"But it won't be the same in the future!" Thinking of this, Li Bao smiled.
The hardships of life made him rarely smile, so when the third aunt opened the door and saw the smile on her son's face, she was stunned, and swallowed back the harsh words that had come to her lips.
"It's so late again, you really went to make cattle and horses for his family, even if you have two full meals, what is it!" Muttering in her mouth, the third aunt looked at her son's face, and there was no blue nose and swollen face when she came back in the past, which made her heart feel a little relieved.
"You don't understand." Li Bao said stiffly.
"I don't understand? You are my son, how do I not understand? Working for his house every day, and beating his nose and face in the morning, you stupid thing will agree! According to me, you still honestly serve as an apprentice, and in a few years you will be promoted to a buddy, and then I will think of marrying you a daughter-in-law, and I will close my legs and kick one by one, and go to see your conscienceless dead ghost father...... Why is my life so miserable......"
As he spoke, the third aunt's voice became sad, Li Bao was most annoyed by this, and he roared again: "You don't understand!" ”
A teenager at this age is rebellious and doesn't like to be taught. Li Bao didn't know how to comfort the third aunt, so he turned around and wanted to go out to avoid it first, and then come back when his mother cried.
But when I turned around, I saw two shadows, one large and one small, coming from the other end of the alley.
"Da Lang...... What are you doing here? Recognizing that this was Zhou Quan and his teacher, Li Bao was stunned.
"There are so many things that happened today, but I forgot something serious, but fortunately, the teacher was careful and reminded me at home." Zhou Quan said lazily.
Li Bao is eyes saw what happened during the day, his eyes widened, and his heart suddenly became a little nervous.
"What's the matter?"
"It's been a month since you came to me to help, right?" Zhou Quan said with a smile.
If you start counting from the guessing puzzle, it is actually more than a month, but Li Bao couldn't bear to remember the time, and nodded: "It's a month!" ”
"Those days of guessing riddles are just trials, do you understand the probationary period...... Forget it, you don't understand. Zhou Quan's old face was slightly red, and then he said: "In short, I said that you have officially joined me for a month, that is one month, since it is a full month, you should be paid, well, this is your salary!" ”
With Zhou Quan's words, the master handed the three hanging coins he was carrying to Li Bao, and at the same time muttered: "The heavy copper coin, brother, you don't take it yourself, but ask me to take it, I am a little girl!" ”
Three hanging money, it should be three runs, Li Bao was at a loss when he took it, and then saw Zhou Quan and the teacher walking away. Zhou Quan rubbed his teacher's hair as he walked: "Isn't it natural for a sister to do something for her brother, why do you have so many complaints!" ”
"What are they coming for?" Li Bao also looked at the backs of Zhou Quan and his teacher, and behind him, Li Sangu rushed out.
Li Bao handed over the three hangings of money in his hand: "Give, my salary!" ”
He was very proud when he spoke, this is three dollars, if he goes to be an apprentice to any family, it will be great if he can earn three or five dollars to buy some snacks.
"Work...... Salary...... So much? Li Sangu hugged the three hanging money, and the corners of her mouth suddenly grinned to her ears.
"Mother, I will raise you in the future." Li Baodao.
"Phew, if you earn this money, you want to support your mother, or your mother will save for you, and I'm going to talk about a daughter-in-law!" Li Sangu scolded with a smile.
"This month is three times, and there will be more in the future, and you must live a life where you have meat to eat every day!" Li Baodao.
"Hahahaha...... "It's rare, Li Sangu didn't sneer anymore, she smiled happily and hugged three hangings of money to get started.
Li Bao followed her into the door, but found that Li Sangu stopped again, and then began to sob, tears falling down her eyes.
"Mother, what are you crying about?"
"It's over, it's over, when are you worth three dollars...... This money is not your wages, it is your life money! Li Sangu said.
Li Bao was stunned, he didn't understand why his mother said this, he paused for a moment, and then said in an urn voice: "If my cheap life can be sold for so much money, it will be worth it!" ”
No matter what Li Sangu said, Li Bao was determined to follow Zhou Quan, and Li Sangu had no choice.
Early the next morning, Li Bao got up, washed up a little, and ran quickly to Zhou's house.
When he arrived, Zhou Quan was standing at the door shirtless, wiping the sweat from his body with a towel.
Although Zhou Quan is very lazy, he is very diligent in exercising. Every morning, I not only have to follow my father and Du Gou'er to practice fists, feet, guns and sticks twice, but also run around the alley a few times.
Not only did he run by himself, but the teacher was also driven by him to run together, but the little girl ran slowly, and often he ran three laps before the master ran the next lap.
"Brother, brother...... The slave can't run......"
The master ran over from the door out of breath, but Zhou Quan didn't let her go: "Go on, there is still half a circle, and it will be completed when you run back!" ”
"Bad...... Bad brother! ”
Li Bao waited for his master to run away a little before he came up and said, "Da Lang." ”
"Uncle Dog is waiting for you." Zhou Quan waved his hand.
Li Bao was the first to come, about a pillar of incense, Sun Cheng also talked and laughed with the two teenagers, they just followed Du Gou'er to practice some boxing and kicking at will, so there was no need to come so early.
The morning exercise ended with sunrise, Zhou's mother beckoned everyone to eat, and brought up a pot of big buns and white flour steamed buns with meat filling, as well as porridge made of millet, and pickles, everyone ate fragrantly.
While eating, someone coughed outside the door, and then several people walked out unhurriedly.
Li Bao glanced up, immediately put down his rice bowl, and jumped over with his fists clenched.
"Zhou Quan, take care of your dog!" Jada, who came in, shouted in a male duck voice.
Li Bao's eyes widened, his teeth creaked, and he glanced back at Zhou Quan. Zhou Quan shook his hand, put down the bowl, got up and walked over.
"Haha, your dog is really good, Zhou Quan, when will you sell me such a dog?" Seeing this, Jada cried out excitedly.
He dared to run to Zhou's house to shout, for no other reason, beside him, his father Jia Yi stood with his hands behind his back and looked at Zhou Fu coldly.
followed Jia Yi and several officials. These officials were all sneering, staring at Zhou Fu, and they were also not good-looking.
Zhou Fu continued to eat his own things, as if Jia Yi and they didn't exist at all.
"Zhou Quan, your dog ......"
Jada was still shouting, and suddenly Zhou Quan's body moved, rushed in front of him, and waved his hand to slap him.
With a crisp sound of the horn, Jada was whipped in place and spun around for half a circle, and a howl rushed towards Zhou Quan, but Zhou Quan lifted his foot and kicked it directly to the side.
Over there, Jia Yi's face changed greatly, and he reached out to grab Zhou Quan, stopping Zhou Quan's whole person, but Li Bao ran up at this time, gave Jia Da another kick, and kicked Jia Da to the ground.
"Dog!" Jia Yi shouted angrily and wanted to smoke Zhou Quan, but at this moment, he felt a buzzing sound in front of him, and a white wax rod stabbed against his dough, making him dare not move.
"Children quarrel and fight, let's adults don't participate, Brother Jia, don't you say?" Zhou Fu grabbed the white wax rod in one hand and a steamed bun in the other, and said while chewing.
Jia Yi's face twitched, and he finally held back the anger in his heart.
"Brother Zhou is still so calm, your Zhou family has done a big business, even Master Yin is alarmed, but you are still safe!"
"It's not as good as you Jia Yi, who has been supervising the liquor tax all these years, and that is the wealth of the family, and I easily rewarded my son who is not a good person."
In the matter of guessing the riddle, Jia Yi stole the chicken and didn't eat the rice, this was exactly his hate, and when Zhou Fu mentioned it, his face twitched.
"Let you be proud for a moment...... Zhou Fu, Da Yin sent you to see you, but you are still delayed here, do you have to ask Da Yin to invite you in person? ”
Li Xiaoshou wants to pass on Zhou Fu?
Zhou Quan's mind turned, he looked at his father, and then at Jia Yi, and found that a distorted and suppressed smile appeared on the corner of Jia Yi's mouth.
Obviously, Li Xiaoshou summoned Zhou Fu, which is definitely not a good thing.
Could it be that yesterday's popsicle incident?
"Da Yin has a call, but he can't delay." Zhou Fu frowned, he put down the white wax rod, nodded to Zhou's mother, and then said, "Jia Yi, I'll go with you." ”
"Not only you, but also Ling Lang, Brother Zhou, you have a good son, and you will go to see Da Yin twice in three days."
It must be a popsicle thing!
Although it is related to the secret affairs in the palace, with Li Xiaoshou's official position, it is not difficult to hear the rumors at all, and he intends to pat the son of heaven, so he sent someone to detain Zhou Fu's father and son...... No, it's not like that, Jia Yi is a tax supervisor, and he has nothing to do with this matter, he came to detain people, so maybe he handed over something in front of Li Xiaoshou!
With Jia Yi's identity, it is impossible to directly affect Li Xiaoshou, but behind Jia Yi, there are others......
Zhou Quan raised his head and exchanged glances with his father, but unfortunately, the father and son did not have any tacit understanding, at least Zhou Quan didn't know what his father shook his head for.
The father and son went out with Jia Yi, and the servants also followed, but outside the door, Zhou Quan frowned again.
The two brothers, Xiong Daxiong, and dozens of others were blocked on the street, and they were also not kind to their eyes.
"Seal up the Zhou family, don't let it take anything away!" Jia Yi shouted.
Du Gou'er and Li Bao were escorted out by the officers, and Zhou's mother and the teacher were also kicked out, and the officers put the seal directly on the door.
Only one did not come out, but it was Jada.
"It's mine, Zhou Quan, let you be cunning and treacherous, but your popsicles, the money you earn, are all mine!" Inside the door, Jada's laughter rang out.
Li Bao heard this voice, turned around and wanted to rush back, but was caught by Du Gou'er. He looked at Du Gou'er angrily, and Du Gou'er pointed at Zhou Quan.
Li Bao saw Zhou Quan waving his hand at him, not only was his face not angry, but with a relaxed smile, and the anger in his chest calmed down.
"That's the case...... Then it will be fine! Li Bao thought simply.
