Chapter 15: A Sudden Change

The next day, Zhang Erzhen met her old Xiucai teacher. Lao Xiucai's surname was Qi, his beard was white, and he looked at the little girl who was sitting at the bottom and asked, "What books have you ever read?"

Zhang Erzhen said honestly: "I have read some, "Hundred Family Names", "Thousand Character Text", "Three Character Classic", "Thousand Family Poems", "Kindergarten Qionglin", ...... Well, I think about it, and "Miscellaneous Words for Young Children". ”

These are normal enlightenment books, Qi Laoxiu stroked his long beard with satisfaction and nodded, and continued to ask: "Does the girl know what the relationship between father and son is, what if the father and son don't admire?"

Zhang Erzhen tilted her head and thought for a while: "Father and son create, it is said that Ken is willing to build Kentang, and father and son are both virtuous, and it is said that it is father and son." The ancestor is called the king's father, and the father is called Yan Jun. Parents exist, it is called Chunxuan and luxuriant, and children and grandchildren are developed, which is called Langui Tengfang. The bridge is high and up, like the way of the father, and the azusa wood is low and low, like the humility of the son. Don't be stupid or deaf, don't be a family and a family, you have to be close to your relatives, and you can be a son. Gai Father, named Qiangu, Yuyi Son, is called Moth...... Therefore, there are many descendants of the lovely, such as the sting of the mantis, and the prosperity of the descendants of the enviable, such as the continuous melon. ”

Qi Lao Xiucai said: "This is the words of the ancestors, how can the girl understand it?"

"The words of the ancestors are really in the minds of the students. Zhang Erzhen crossed her legs and looked down at the butterfly embroidered on her skirt.

"Since the girl has memorized "Young Lin Qiongxue", let's start here today. Qi Lao Xiucai didn't take the book, but just shook his head and memorized the chapters of his grandchildren, fathers and sons, appreciating the profound philosophy contained in the concise language of his ancestors.

Zhang Erzhen watched Qi Laoxiu turn around before he turned around, and secretly stretched his somewhat numb legs.

"Girl, when you study, you have to pay full attention, put your heart into it, and use your heart to do it. Qi Laoxiu didn't look back or turn around to know that Zhang Erzhen was not honest, which made her admire it very much, and said respectfully: "Yes, the student knows his mistakes." ”

Qi Lao Xiucai's homework only takes an hour and a half, which is many times easier than the full-time kindergarten in his previous life. So after Zhang Erzhen endured the feeling of falling asleep for three hours, Qi Laoxiu announced that today's class was over, and he still left homework, that is, to copy what Zhang Erzhen memorized three times today, and tomorrow he will see how the girl's words are.

Zhang Erzhen respectfully stood up and saw off Lao Xiucai, and then beckoned to Mingyue, who was drowsy on the side, and said, "Don't sleep, clean up quickly." ”

Mingyue shook her head and said, "Girl, it's time for lunch." ”

"You go to the kitchen and go to the butterfly courtyard, and I'll go back to the courtyard first. After Zhang Erzhen finished the order, he thought for a while and continued: "Go and call Li Xingli first, I have something to find them." ”

Zhang Erzhen walked back alone, stroking her chin and thinking about last night's events, and finally decided to take a look for herself, and now she needs to find out when the woman surnamed Pang came, what she has experienced, and what she knows.

"Nurse, I have to go out after dinner, you help me find the clothes of the little girl. ”

Yang said: "If the girl wants to go out, Madame is afraid that she will not agree." ”

"My mother went out in the morning, and she hasn't come back yet. I'll take Mingyue and the two little maids to go, and the nurse will stay in the house first. Zhang Erzhen instructed Yang to hurry up and find clothes, but saw Yang slowly enter his ear room, and after a while, he came out with a suit and said, "I thought the girl would use it, and it was already done." ”

Zhang Erzhen's eyes widened and looked at the clothes that Yang was holding, which was a lake-blue robe, and threw herself to the ground with Yang's admiration: "Nurse, you are so careful." ”

Yang smiled and said: "Where does the girl talk, it's just that she has nothing to do in her daily life, and the girl's clothes are made a few more." ”

Yang waited for Zhang Erzhen to change his clothes, broke his hair in a bun and became a man. When I finished tidying up, I was a rich guy in front of me, beautiful and bright. Mingyue happened to appear at the gate of the courtyard with two little maids, carrying a basket of food, and was surprised to see her girl's outfit.

Zhang Erzhen simply used the meal, and sneaked out of Zhang's mansion with Mingyue, who was also dressed as a man, and two little maids.

Yesterday I was in a carriage, but today I don't dare to alarm the carriage, if Uncle Zhang sees it, he will definitely tell the Kim family immediately. Therefore, Zhang Erzhen and his entourage walked towards Yonghe Lane, and after walking for about two quarters of an hour, they saw the three big characters of "Yonghe Lane" hanging high in the distance.

Yonghe Lane has a long history, because it is next to a small river, the river passes through Gwanghwa to divide the county into two parts, the small river is called Yonghe, and this alley is called Yonghe Lane. Zhang Erzhen saw a group of people pointing to the river and muttering, and there were a few people in the river wearing yamen uniforms sitting on small boats to salvage.

Li Wei stepped forward to inquire what was going on, and came back to say: "Little boy, last night, a group of debt collectors appeared in Yonghe Lane, chasing the person, and the person stumbled and fell into the river. Someone only reported the case this morning, and it is estimated that the person has already died. ”

Zhang Erzhen felt a strong uneasiness, and followed the crowd to watch the people in the yamen salvage in the river. Soon a corpse was salvaged, the corpse was already swollen, the hair was scattered, and he was wearing a turquoise long dress, and then looked at the face of the deceased, Mingyue on the side was so frightened that he shouted "Ah", isn't this the Ponzi from last night!

"Mother, mother!" There was a cry next to Zhang Erzhen, and it seemed that the cryer was the little girl who followed Pang Zi last night, and the little girl was not afraid of Pang Zi's miserable appearance, and cried on Pang Zi's body.

"This person deserves to die, but she is pitiful for her daughter, who has no father or mother at a young age, and now she has no place to live. I watched her yard be occupied by debt collectors, and the little girl was kicked out. ”

"I don't care about being a mother, I have a good life, but I wander around the gambling house all day long, which harms myself and my children. I watched her very skillful, and her mind was lively, and she bought lanterns at the Lantern Festival yesterday, and the lanterns were cute and tight. ”

Zhang Erzhen listened to the discussion of the neighbors, looked at the Pang Zi who was wet and dripping water on the ground, and remembered her domineering appearance on the bus, and her heart was sour and uncomfortable. God favored her and gave her two lives, but she was trampled by herself. Pang Zi is gone, but what about her daughter? Zhang Erzhen looked at Pang Zi's bare hair and bare hands, and her heart was very complicated for a while.

Pang Zi owed three hundred and fourteen taels in debt, and was forced to commit suicide by jumping into the river, and the dead account could not be eliminated, and her family's house would be returned to Shenghui Gambling House in the future. My master is not ruthless, and today I will give her daughter ten taels of silver as a placement fee, which is also a little bit of my heart. Shenghui Gambling House sent a steward to deal with it, waved off the onlookers, and ordered Pang Zi to be carried away. This kind of lawsuit is not interfered with by the government, and the officials salvaged the bodies and went back.

The crowd soon dispersed on the riverbank, and the little girl followed Ponzi's corpse in the same direction.
