Chapter 19: Five Hundred Broken Silver Cloud City Redemption

Zhang Xiaolei's purchase of land has become a topic of conversation in the tea soup house.

Although it is not very generous, it is also worth talking about by these people at the bottom.

After reading the old farmer's land deed and making sure that there was no problem, Zhang Xiaolei signed a contract with him.

The land of Dadong Mountain finally belongs to him.

After buying the land, Zhang Xiaolei went back to Dadong Mountain, where people were already lighting fires and resting, and everyone didn't understand what they were going to do.

When people saw Zhang Xiaolei coming back, they hurriedly greeted him.

"Boss, what do you want us to do?"

"We've all been sitting here all day."

Zhang Xiaolei smiled: "Everyone, I'm here to tell you about work now." Tomorrow morning, you will go to the city of Wheat. ”

"What are you going to do in Wheat City?"

"Go get in line and buy a sieve."

"Sieves?"

People are a little puzzled and don't understand what Zhang Xiaolei wants to do.

Zhang Xiaolei took out two taels of silver and handed it to Sun Hu, and said to him: "Buy three hundred sieves, and each person will buy two." But you can't buy them together, but after buying them, you put away the sieve and hide it, and then continue to queue up to buy it. ”

"What are you trying to do?"

Zhang Xiaolei smiled: "Don't ask, just do what I say." In addition, find someone to accompany me, and I'm going to Cloud City. ”

"To Cloud City?"

Zhang Xiaolei looked into the crowd and suddenly saw a teenager.

The boy sat on the ground, about ten years old.

He was writing on the ground with a twig, but the writing was crooked.

Zhang Xiaolei walked up to him and said with a smile: "Literacy? ”

"In the ...... of learning" When the young man saw Zhang Xiaolei coming, he quickly stood up and wiped his hands, "I just haven't learned a few." ”

Zhang Xiaolei said with a smile: "In Zhoucheng, most people of your age like to learn carpentry, why do you want to learn words?" ”

The boy said honestly: "If you learn carpentry, you will also be carpentry for the rest of your life." If you learn how to write, you will be able to get ahead in the future. ”

"It's kind of interesting."

Zhang Xiaolei asked, "What's your name?" ”

The young man said seriously: "Nangong Wushuang." ”

"Hey, what a domineering name...... Zhang Xiaolei said in surprise, "What's your father's name?" ”

"Nangong Laifu."

"It looks like your father doesn't look like he is educated, who gave you this name?"

Nangong Wushuang said seriously: "My grandfather, my grandfather was literate back then, but unfortunately he fell ill early and died before my mother and father were born. Before he died, he said that if my mother gave birth to a son in the future, he would be called Nangong Wushuang. If you give birth to a daughter, you will be called Nangong Ruochu. ”

Zhang Xiaolei nodded: "Rest early, accompany me to Cloud City tomorrow, can you ride a horse?" ”

"No, it won't."

"It's okay, you're small anyway, you can sit in front."

Nangong Wushuang nodded excitedly, and said seriously: "Okay, I'll go to sleep now." ”

After that, he quickly lay on the ground with his eyes closed, and really looked like he was going to sleep.

Zhang Xiaolei smiled slightly, seeing that this child was quite obedient, and he felt satisfied in his heart.

He turned his head to Sun Hu and smiled: "Yiliu Yan is really anyone's recruit. ”

Sun Hu said embarrassedly: "It must have been mixed in for the silver, my master is busy, and he can't do everything himself." ”

"It's not that she's busy, it's that she can't do anything, she can't do anything good, she can't do everything"

"Mr. Zhang is talking in front of me, so let's show more respect to my master."

Zhang Xiaolei smiled, too lazy to say more to Sun Hu. He also found a clean place and fell asleep.

Sun Hu wanted to ask something, but seeing that Zhang Xiaolei was so confident, he didn't ask more.

After dawn, people went to Maicheng early, and Zhang Xiaolei also took Nangong Wushuang on the horse and headed towards Yuncheng.

He suddenly remembered that he didn't know how to ride a horse at the beginning, and it was Li Fengwu who took him.

Now that I think about it, I'm not too young.

He sighed softly.

Nangong Wushuang looked at the backward scenery on both sides, and he said in surprise: "The horses are running so fast. ”

Zhang Xiaolei said with a smile: "Horses are naturally faster than people, have you ever been to Cloud City?" ”

Nangong Wushuang shook his head and said, "I haven't been there, and I haven't been to Maicheng either." I also told my father that when I earn money in the future, I will go to Maicheng to buy a house for him to live in. My father has bad legs and feet, and I have to hire a few servants to press his feet every day. ”

Zhang Xiaolei sneered: "You are filial." ”

"My father is so ......" Nangong Wushuang said seriously, "I get up early and go to bed late every day, and go out to do carpentry, but he doesn't let me learn carpentry." He said that he would work hard and let me study......"

Nangong Wushuang talked about his father, and Zhang Xiaolei also listened to it interestingly.

He was abducted twelve years ago and had never heard of a happy family.

So even if he just listened to some parents' shortcomings, he was very comfortable.

Nangong Wushuang said that his father always eats with wooden bowls, and he will buy a set of porcelain bowls for his father in the future. Later, he thought about it carefully and said that he would buy two sets, so that when his father was old, if his hands trembled and accidentally broke the porcelain bowl, he would not feel distressed.

His words made Zhang Xiaolei laugh when he heard it.

After arriving all the way to Cloud City, Nangong Wushuang dismounted, and hurriedly led the horse obediently.

At this time, Zhang Xiaolei said with a smile: "You said all the way that you want to buy this and that for your father, tell me, what do you want to buy for your mother?" ”

Nangong Wushuang was stunned: "Buy it for her?" ”

"Yes......" Zhang Xiaolei said casually, "I want to buy her a set of porcelain, right?" ”

Nangong Wushuang was stunned: "Woman, what kind of porcelain do you want?" Give her a tile to put some food, can't you? ”

Zhang Xiaolei was stunned when he heard this: "She is your mother." ”

"Isn't she the container that gave birth to me...... Nangong Wushuang said curiously, "Listening to what Mr. said, do I still have to honor her in the future?" ”

Zhang Xiaolei pondered for a while.

He suddenly asked, "Did your father beat your mother?" ”

"Hit."

"Why was the last time you struck?"

"My mother is stupid, I said I wanted to eat earlier, but she forgot. Later, when I shouted that she was hungry, she hurried to cook. I will spare her, and when my father returns, I will sue. At that time, my father picked up a rolling pin and chased after her. ”

Zhang Xiaolei suddenly realized, he said with a smile: "Filial piety comes first, people who have never read know to do good, but you don't know how to do good, it seems that your father didn't teach you well." But people always have to wait until they grow up to know how good their mother is. When you're 20 years old, I'm afraid it's very different from what you think today. You wait here first, and I'll do something. ”

Nangong Wushuang hurriedly said yes, and Zhang Xiaolei went to redeem the ticket.

Five hundred taels of silver.

He did not exchange it for large pieces of silver, but for countless small pieces of silver.

The silver, no matter how small it is, is not very good.

He came out with two bags of broken silver, and smiled with Nangong Wushuang: "Let's go, go back to Maicheng." ”

"Is it done so quickly...... Nangong Wushuang said curiously, "Sir, don't you eat here first, we haven't eaten anything in the morning, and the horses have to rest." ”

Zhang Xiaolei said softly: "Bear with me, go back and eat again, I don't want to eat in Cloud City." ”

Nangong Wushuang nodded obediently, and hurriedly helped Zhang Xiaolei hang the broken silver on both sides of the horse.

He touched the sack, and he didn't know what was inside, but he didn't think about it, because he had never seen so much silver, and he never dared to think of so much silver.

Zhang Xiaolei patted his head and said, "Let's go, I'll ......"

"Lei Ye!"

As he was talking, a person on the side of the street suddenly exclaimed, "Isn't this Lei Ye?" Coincidentally, our master is in the restaurant next to it! ”
