Chapter 20 Qingming outing
"Brother, you say, did he recognize me?" Zhen Zhen asked Haoxing.
"So what? What are you worried about? Haoxing asked with a smile, as if she was worrying about nothing.
"Yes." Han Zhao's expression was not unusual.
Only then did the groom rush to the front of the two: "The eldest lady is really making great progress, and she can run on a horse on the first day."
"Well, at least I'm not afraid to ride a horse." Zhen Zhen is also good at self-affirmation.
"The horse is not afraid of you, forget it, the horse's belly is so tight." Haoxing teased her.
On the way back on horseback, I heard the sound of beating and scolding on the side of the road, which was very discordant with the atmosphere of the outing.
Zhen Zhen sat on the horse and saw it clearly, I don't know whose two servants were driving away the two beggars, the servants were scolding and scolding, the two beggars retreated, and kept bending down and bowing and stretching out the coarse porcelain bowl in their hands to beg, and there seemed to be words in their mouths, but they couldn't hear a word clearly.
The route of the two beggars' retreat was exactly in the direction of Zhen Zhen's advance, and the groom yelled at them very unceremoniously: "Get out of the way!"
Zhen Zhen hurriedly stopped and said, "Hey, forget it."
Haoxing glanced at Zhen Zhen thoughtfully, and Zhen Zhen said: "The family suffered a disaster and became a beggar, which is already very pitiful. They came here to ask for more food during the holidays. ”
Zhen Zhen glanced at the two beggars standing on the side of the road, about twenty or thirty years old, and the two of them also looked at her, without blinking their eyes. A thought flashed in Zhen Zhen's heart, and he felt that something was wrong. It's just that she has already ridden over, and she doesn't ask anymore.
Ten paces away, the younger beggar said to the older one, "She's wearing Yuantai's clothes." ”
"Shut up!" The older scolded in a low voice.
Zhen Zhen and Haoxing returned to the camp of the Zhen family, and Yiyun saw Haoxing take his aunt to ride a horse, and he also made a noise about riding a horse. Haoxing got off the horse, got on the horse with his son in his arms and sat down. Yifang was greedy on the side, and Yiyun hooked her again: "Sister, you can come up too, it's fun."
Haoxing hugged Yifang on the horse and sat on horseback.
Zhen Zhen dismounted, handed the reins to the groom, walked to his mother's table and sat down, and took a cup to drink.
The mother lovingly took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat off her head, and complained in a distressed whisper: "Oh, you see which young lady around here is sweating from riding a horse!"
"Mother, let's come all the way today, and I saw a lot of women riding horses."
"You are a girl who has not been out of the cabinet, it is not good to show your face after all."
"Mother, I'll accompany you to the lake." Zhen Zhen quietly changed the topic.
"I just walked with your two sisters-in-law. Saw someone catch a big fish. Mother said.
"Then eat something." Zhen Zhen beckoned to Hongyun.
In "Dream of Red Mansions", the ladies have hand stoves in winter, so it is not surprising that Zhen Zhen saw the insulated food box brought by Hongyun. The copper cuboid has a total of four layers, the bottom is for charcoal fire, the top three layers are for food, and there is a beautiful thick cotton sleeve on the outside of the box for insulation.
"Yiyun, Yifang, come and eat." The mother greets her grandchildren.
The attention of the two little ones shifted again, and they immediately asked Haoxing to get off the horse and run over to find food.
Haoxing took a pot of wine and drank it with his father and Haoxiong.
After noon, people slowly retreated.
Zhen Zhen noticed that once someone left, beggars would gather around the place where the family had stayed and grab the leftover or discarded food. But a few beggars did not come forward to rob them, but went to the vicinity of another house and waited.
Zhen Zhen thought of the two beggars she saw just now, and suddenly understood that something was wrong---- their eyes, her name was Haoxing: "Brother, I found that the beggars who had just walked away had very clear eyes. The same is true of the two we met on horseback. Shouldn't the beggar have numb, desperate, listless eyes? ”
Hiroo heard it and was very strange: "You can also notice this?"
Haoxing asked, "What do you want to do?"
Zhen Zhen took a deep breath and said his judgment: "Those people are not beggars, right?" Then what do they want to do by dressing up as beggars and standing by the lake with the highest concentration of officials in the Daning Dynasty? ”
Zhen Cheng said: "Do you have real evidence? Or is it a guess? ”
Zhen Zhen said, "We can test it." I need a clever guy. ”
Haoxing called one of his attendants, Zhen An, over.
Zhen Zhen said to Zhen An: "Anzi, you will take two nest heads for the beggar standing still over there later, you must pay attention to three things, one is the smell on their bodies, the second is their hands, and the third is to lead them to speak, listen to their accents, and come back to learn from us."
An Zi passed as she said, and the two beggars took the nest head and put it in their arms, did not eat it, and thanked Zhen An for his non-stop work. Zhen An stood next to the two of them for a while before coming back, and saw the two beggars shaking their heads.
Zhen An came back and said: "Master, eldest young master, second young master, eldest miss, those two beggars have no smell on them, they are similar to ordinary people, their hair is just a little messy, not greasy or dirty, and the clothes on their bodies are a little shabby, but I don't think those patches are in place."
Haoxing's interest came: "Oh? Let's talk about it. ”
Zhen An said: "If it is a person who carries the burden, the patch is generally on the shoulder. Patches like the ones on my body are generally at the cuffs and neckline. Why do their patches hit on the back and under the waist? It seems to be deliberately patched to show people. Their hands were dirty, but there were no cracks or scars on them. I stood there and talked to them for a long time, and they didn't say anything but thank you, and shook their heads when they asked anything. ”
Haoxing took out a piece of broken silver from his arms and threw it to Zhen An: "Well done!" You'll be rewarded! ”
Zhen An thanked the reward and retreated.
The father and brother all looked at Zhen Zhen, and Zhen Zhen knew that he was waiting for her analysis: "There is no smell on the body, which means that they have a place to take a bath and change clothes, and they can even clean their teeth with salt." There was no blood on their hands, which showed that they had tools to use in their daily work. Saying nothing but thank you shows that they want to hide their identity and accent. None of these are like beggars. So they are not beggars. ”
Haoxiong said: "But there is no law prohibiting disguised beggars, so we can't go to the government to sue them, right?"
Zhen Cheng thought for a moment and said, "Haoxing, you immediately take my post to the prince and tell him the news." Haoxiong, go home. ”
Zhen Zhen really thought: There is no police station or anything like this, I found a bad guy and a spy, and I don't know who to look for.
Hao Xing replied yes and took Zhen An to the lake with the most beautiful scenery.
The Zhen family's family began to pack up and go home. Zhen Zhen got into the carriage, stood on the wheel and carefully observed the surroundings, there should be twenty beggars in the field of vision. Which ones are true and which ones are false?
