(51) Zhang Qingting, who urged people to make progress
Take a closer look at this Zhao Chengcai, who looks more like Zhao Wang's family, with the same pointed face, but not like the old lady who is running around for a living, making a face of bitterness and hatred. He reads all year round, and he naturally has a little more bookish atmosphere, so when he looks serious, it is not ugly, but it shows a bit of the elegant taste of southern scholars.
Seeing Zhang Qingting come back, he glanced at her, and then turned his head away.
Small! You don't want to see me, I don't want to see you! Miss Zhang's willow waist was swinged, and her chin soared into the house.
Outside the window, the moon has risen in the sky, and the silver moonlight gently pours like silver, sprinkled on the carved beams and paintings, and also shines into this cold small house.
I don't know if Zhang Dragonfly from Nankang Country has had a good time? Zhang Qingting suddenly felt a little tired.
After coming to Bei'anguo, it seems that he has been running non-stop, and Zhenri is either worried about this or that. Where is the leisure to enjoy the spring flowers and autumn moon?
She suddenly understood why when she used to play the piano and paint to enjoy the moon and listen to the rain, those girls and mothers-in-law were listless and yawning.
Yes, they are vulgar, but who can be vulgar when they have to run around for a living? As far as they are concerned, these young ladies and sons are useless in cultivating their sentiments and having fun in their idleness. It's not warm or wrapping your belly, so it's not worth wasting your time at all.
But if it's really like them, it's as close as the Zhang family's six, it's not elegant at all, and they only know that they eat and sleep all day long, and they wake up to eat, what is the meaning of that kind of life?
Miss Zhang is a little confused, how to find a common appreciation point between the elegant and the vulgar?
Alas! Let's worry about it later, at the moment, the most important thing is still a mundane thing, that is, money!
A thousand taels of silver! It's easier said than done! I only have less than three hundred taels of silver, how can I earn one thousand taels?
If there is no time limit, you can buy a few acres of land or shop to collect rent, and it is estimated that it will be turned out in ten or eight years. But Zhang Qingting didn't have so much time to waste, she didn't want to stay in the Zhao family for too long. Not to mention the Zhao Wang family, their food alone made it difficult for her to swallow. The people take food as their day, and they can't even eat, so how can they live? Besides, Miss Zhang still has to get married! You have to leave as soon as possible and live your own good life.
Now that I think about it, I really regret it, if I don't be reckless in the afternoon, what if I let that Xiucai write a letter of resignation? Although the reputation is not very good, at this moment he is already a wide sea and a fish jumping, and the sky is high and the birds are flying.
No way! Soldiers can be killed, but not humiliated!
Zhang Qingting doesn't want to be poked in the backbone and scolded for being worthless, isn't it just a thousand taels? She doesn't believe it, she can't earn it with her ingenuity!
"Smack!" Two crisp slaps suddenly occurred at the door.
Zhang Qingting didn't feel funny, this sour talent also has his reasonable side, people treat him with courtesy, and he has to return it with courtesy. He sat up and dressed up before saying, "Please come in!" ”
Zhao Chengcai came in with his feet down, his head lowered and he was very embarrassed, "You...... You haven't rested yet, have you? ”
"If you have something, just say it!" Although Zhang Qingting is also a young lady who is used to handling when she is at home, since she arrived in Bei'an, this identity has changed dramatically, and one aspect of her personality has begun to quietly become bold and spicy like Zhang Dragonfly in the past.
The times create beauty, and without even noticing herself, she has begun to change little by little.
Zhao Chengcai raised his eyes to look at her, puffed out his cheeks and handed over a piece of paper as if angry.
Zhang Qingting took it and took a look, so Xuan didn't make a sound, this nerd really gave her an IOU of thirty taels of silver.
"You don't owe that much! I'm not going to ask for this money either. ”
"No!" Zhao Chengcai was a little embarrassed, but said loudly, "I must return this money to you!" But now, can you ...... now," his voice weakened significantly, "can you lend me another tael?" ”
Zhang Qingting was a little surprised, "What do you want money for?" "Besides, why don't you ask your mother for money if you want money?
Zhao Chengcai lowered his head, wringed his hands vigorously, and said crampedly, "I...... I want to go to the county government tomorrow, and the county magistrate, Lord Lou, is usually good to me, and I want to ask him if he can recommend me a messenger. He paused, and his voice became louder again, "Don't worry! As long as I find the messenger, I will return the money I earned to you immediately! ”
"Oh? Are you really going to go out and do something? Are you no longer going to school? ”
Zhao Chengcai didn't expect her to ask this question, but he was stunned, don't hide it if you think about it, just tell the truth, "You haven't seen this situation in my family, where can you afford me to study?" It's better to find an errand first and share some family expenses is the right thing. ”
Zhang Qingting disagreed, "Although that's right, but in the past ten years, you have been exempt from taxes just for the sake of taking a show?" That's not worth it, right? Have you ever taken the township test? ”
The imperial examination system of Bei'an is basically the same as that of Nankangguo, Zhang Qingting was born in a family of eunuchs, so he knows it.
"Well, I could have gone to the township test last fall, but I couldn't raise the money for the journey......" Zhao Chengcai blushed a little and pushed, "Let's talk about it later!" ”
But how can Zhang Qingting be so easy to fool? Immediately shook his head and said regretfully, "Then it will be another two years of delay, and if you don't have any money, you should borrow some money!" If you don't pass the exam, you should learn from the experience and know a few teachers and classmates! If this young man doesn't work hard, is he waiting for the boss to be sad? When you are older, I am afraid that you will still have a tired family, so you will have no intention of going to school. Although this may not be able to be sent to a good place to be an official, as long as you enter the official career, your status can be raised all at once, and you will have a chance to wait for a few years, even if you have no merits, as long as you don't make mistakes, there will always be a promotion. At that time, your path will be opened, and your face will be wider, and you are afraid that you will not be able to find a good job? Taking 10,000 steps back, even if his career is not smooth, he is just a low-end eight- or nine-grade official, like the county order here, but he is a big and small official. Not to mention more, the livelihood of the family has been solved, and it is also glorious to the ancestors when it comes to it. Like you now, you use the identity of a showman, it is nothing more than where to mix a master, to be a teacher, and to make a living by looking at people's eyes all your life! According to me, you might as well settle down and be ruthless, and taking a talent test is the right way! ”
Zhao Chengcai was stunned when he heard it, this pig killing girl analyzed it clearly, thoroughly, and it was all about the truth! To put it bluntly, it is really better to listen to your words than to read a book for ten years! It was like an empowerment that woke him up, but he asked dumbfounded, "You...... How do you understand this? ”
Ahh I'm sorry, Miss Zhang is showing off for a while, and if she says too much, she will lose.
Zhang Qingting glanced at Zhao Chengcai, his face was still faint, "Are these truths difficult to understand?" Although I haven't experienced much, I often walk around the market and hear people talk about it, don't you understand? ”
You're a talent!
Zhao Chengcai didn't believe it, but he had to believe it. He began to understand a little why the shrewd and powerful old lady would respect this daughter-in-law so much, this pig-killing girl can give birth to such insight when she walks the streets and alleys, if she is allowed to have a good baby, then it will be repaid?
But although Zhang Qingting's words are reasonable, Zhao Chengcai also has to face the reality of life, "I'd better find something to do first, and I'll study again when I come back in the evening." Anyway, I missed it last year. Even if I go to take the exam the year after tomorrow, I have to save up for it myself. ”
That's your own business! I'll just think it's a venture capital, Zhang Qingting thought about it, and immediately took two taels of silver out, "No, borrow it!" ”
Zhao Chengcai didn't expect her to agree so happily, and he was really grateful, "Thank you!" ”
"You're going to pay it back anyway!" Zhang Qingting smiled and accepted the IOU.
Seeing that she was so refreshing, Zhao Chengcai was willing to say a few more words to her, "That, I told my mother just now, if you want to use the more than 30 taels of silver on your body to do business, your mother should not ask for you." It's just that if she asks about your business, you have to think about how to deal with her. ”
"So?" Zhang Qingting thought for a moment and said, "Then it's okay for me to go out, right?" ”
"I also mentioned this, if you want to do business, of course you have to go to the streets."
"That's good, thank you."
"You're welcome!" Zhao Chengcai's face turned red, "Actually, I should thank you, you just told me such a straight reason." He didn't know how to thank him, so he bowed deeply, "If there is a day when I soar in the future, I will not forget the girl's kindness." ”
Zhang Qingting covered his mouth and snickered, this nerd! But maybe, isn't there a story like this in that play? In case he really loses shit luck in the future and gets a half-official position, maybe it will be really useful.
Zhao Chengcai was grateful for Zhang Qingting's words, and wondered if he would simply destroy the contract and let the girl leave! At that time, in a fit of rage, how could such a ridiculous contract be made?
It's that Zhang Qingting really made a lot of money, and he is embarrassed to accept it!
But when I think about it, this divorce as soon as I got married is not only my reputation bad, but also not good for other girls. That's it, it's better to take a suitable time for the two of them to quietly end this matter again.
After retreating from the outhouse, Zhao Chengcai looked at the books that had been packed again, and suddenly felt a sense of urgency.
Zhang Qingting is reasonable, he has been in the cold for ten years, is it just for the sake of a show of talent and fame, like a little peach and his father, in the countryside for the rest of his life?
Zhang Qingting is a girl's family, and she has been killing pigs since she was thirteen years old to feed a family of seven. Even marrying him is willing to redeem himself with a thousand gold, what kind of arrogance is this?
In contrast, Zhao Chengcai had to be ashamed of himself, what did he do except for a small fame?
"You're just a breath!"
"What showmanship? It's a waste! ”
These words were still in his ears, and Zhao Chengcai didn't feel his blood boiling.
He doesn't just want to do one breath, he doesn't want to be a waste!
Progress further. Bitterness is bitterness, but it is more difficult than Zhang Qingting to earn a thousand gold?
Although he is not talented, he can make up for his clumsiness? How can a manly man be self-indulgent? Surrender without a fight?
If it's not as good as a pig-killing girl, is he still a man?
Thinking of this, Zhao Chengcai couldn't sit still, and immediately spread out the book again and read carefully.
Teacher Zhang next door didn't know at all, and was only full of fighting spirit to earn a thousand gold. As soon as it dawns tomorrow, the horn of battle will be sounded!
