(184) Where is sacred?
It's such a trouble, a good Dragon Boat Festival. It's just no atmosphere.
After a sullen dinner, Aunt Niu asked her son in front of everyone, "Wang'er, Sister Ming'er and her mother's house, do you want to go back with us, or stay and study, you choose the same." ”
Yes? Niu Dewang's eyes widened, "Sister...... Can't my sister stay? ”
Zhao Chengcai was relieved when he heard this, knowing that his aunt could be regarded as believing them.
Aunt Niu shook her head, "There are bad people here who want to bully my sister, but I'm afraid that it will be safer for my sister to go back to our house, at least she has to avoid the limelight, she can't come here for three or five months, but my mother still comes over from time to time." Are you here alone, are you afraid? ”
This one...... Niu Dewang really has to think about it.
Zhang Yinbao patted Niu Dewang and discussed in a low voice, "Don't be afraid, Wang'er, stay in my house at night, and let's go to school together!" ”
Zhang Yuanbao also came up, "If I don't live in the same room with you, then you shouldn't be afraid!" ”
Niu Dewang made up his mind. "Then I'm not leaving!"
Aunt Niu smiled, "Nawang'er has to listen to the words of the eldest cousin and sister-in-law here, study hard, and get along with her classmates, you know?" "No mistakes, no skipping words.
Niu Dewang nodded heavily, "Then you have to come to see me often!" ”
Aunt Niu caressed her son lovingly, "That's nature!" ”
After the meal, Zhao Yulian took the initiative to find the eldest brother and told him how he met Xue Zi'an today, and how he met He Yufeng and Meng Zizhan, "If you meet that Meng Gongzi next time, please thank my brother a lot." ”
Zhao Chengcai frowned and groaned, "Who is this Meng Gongzi?" We haven't heard of a big family surnamed Meng here! ”
Zhang Qingting said, "Could it be passing by?" Happened to come across? ”
Zhao Chengcai shook his head, "We have no scenic spots in Zaranburg, and we have no business ports, even if it is a horse businessman, this spring is not the season to buy horses, how can such a character pass by for no reason?" Besides, he didn't bring any luggage, and he took the initiative to take care of this idle matter...... Yes! He suddenly realized, "Could this be the new county master?" ”
"That's too young, isn't it? There are a lot of words" Zhao Yulian was very puzzled, "It looks like it's about the same age as my brother!" It seems to be the eldest young master of a rich family. ”
Zhang Qingting became more and more sure, "Then it's more likely!" If it is really as prominent as you say, the characters are likely to be the children of the family, and they all have hereditary titles and official positions. Like a few years old princes, it is not uncommon for teenagers to be first- and second-class officials in the imperial court. It's just that if most of the children of such a family background stay in the fiefdom or Beijing as officials, how can they be sent to our small place to be a county magistrate for no reason? ”
Zhao Chengcai thought of a possibility. "Could it be that the court released it for training?" He himself shook his head again and vetoed, "If you have to go to the border or a place where there is a disaster, we have a calm situation here, let him come to practice?" No matter how well you do it, you won't have any merit. ”
Zhang Qingting frowned suddenly, "There is still a possibility, but it's not quite like it?" ”
"Tell me about it!"
Zhang Qingting whispered, "There are only two possibilities for the imperial court to be released. One is what you just said, after the experience, you have to make allocation. The other, unless he offended Long Yan or the powerful people in the DPRK and was demoted and deposed! However, in that case, most of them will be exiled to the wilderness outside the Saiwai, and our Zalanburg is not qualified! ”
Zhao Chengcai thought of the third possibility, "Then do you say that there is such a possibility, that is, he did offend people, but his own power is still quite large, so he was not exiled to Biansai, and it happened that we had a shortage here, so we compromised and sent him." ”
Zhang Qingting nodded, "Then there is only this one explanation!" But. If he is the county magistrate, why won't he take office? ”
Suddenly, she and Zhao Chengcai both thought of a possibility in their minds, the two looked at each other, each other's eyes were as wide as copper bells, and they all exclaimed, "He is secretly visiting!" ”
"Then our horse farm!" Zhang Qingting stood up suddenly, "I have to hurry up and send a message to Master Chen!" ”
Zhao Chengcai's face was solemn, but he said categorically, "Sit down!" It's late! ”
"So what to do? Will we take back our horse farm? "Zhang Qingting is really in a hurry.
Zhao Chengcai waved his hand, signaling her not to panic first, and paced back and forth in the house a few times, but his face softened, "The horse farm is fine!" We have all the formalities, and besides, the creditors have agreed. Even if you pull it up, it can also be said that you can see the hardships of those creditors in collecting debts, so they took care of us in advance, and at that time, Master Chen was punished for a crime of unfairness, and he was dismissed. Master Chen is so old, he can't do it for a few years, and he himself was ready when he did it for us. With that set of yards, he will not have to worry about the elderly for the rest of his life. I'll go to the yamen tomorrow morning and remind him to take the initiative to resign after the handover, don't do that master's errand! If that person was really the county master, he would have jumped out to speak if he thought that we had done something wrong, but he didn't say anything, which proved that it was not too important. ”
Zhang Qingting listened to his thorough analysis, and then he was relieved. "But he's been so late and waiting?"
Zhao Chengcai thought for a while, "Just look at his handling of Yulian, this person is very shrewd." I don't want to offend the head snake as soon as I come, but I will never allow anyone to do evil with us. He didn't want to come out, so he was naturally waiting for a suitable time, or rather, he felt that he hadn't figured out the situation here. Let's not make a noise about this matter, how it should be or what it is, and wait and see what happens! ”
Seeing that there was no big problem, Zhao Yulian calmed down and went back to pack her luggage.
Zhang Qingting looked at her back and sighed, "It's a pity that Aunt is making such a fuss today, even if we have the heart to do it, we can't do it." ”
Zhao Chengcai waved his hand, "I think it's a good start." ”
"What do you mean by that?"
Zhao Chengcai smiled slightly, "Originally, I thought the same thing with you at first, and I felt that Yulian's matter was hopeless. But just now, when my aunt agreed to keep Wang'er, I suddenly understood that for parents, there is nothing more important than the future of their children. If Wang'er could understand more things, his aunt wouldn't have to worry so much about his life, and her attention to Yulian would be weakened. Wait for Wang'er to be older. Maybe I'll go to the girl I like, let alone Yulian as a daughter-in-law. Even if he takes 10,000 steps back, he still has to marry Yulian, but if he can understand more, it will be a blessing in misfortune for Yulian, but we will have to take care of it more in the future. ”
"You make sense, but you ignore the most important thing!"
Zhang Qingting still wanted to sell a pass, but Zhao Chengcai said it himself, "I know, it's Yulian's age!" But this one really can't be. Even when Wang'er grows up, it will have to be delayed for several more years. If my aunt can figure it out early, it would be best if she couldn't figure it out, but if she couldn't figure it out, she would have to delay it for a few years, but fortunately, Yulian has outstanding appearance, and it may not be difficult to do it in the realm, so wait! ”
The two sighed, washed and went to sleep.
Early the next morning, after bidding farewell to Aunt Niu and Zhao Yulian, Zhao Chengcai went to Yamen and came back, still taking a few younger brothers to school.
Leaving Fang Dehai at home to receive the rental matter, Zhang Qingting led Zhang Xiaodie and Fang Mingzhu to the car and horse shop to hire a car.
The shopkeeper of the carriage and horse shop was very enthusiastic when he saw them coming, "We have packed up the carriage that Zhao Xiucai asked for yesterday, you guys come and take a look!" ”
They were led to the backyard storeroom, where several carriages were parked. There are small carriages with one horse, large carriages with two horses, and flatbed carriages without canopies. If you want to use it, a horse-drawn carriage is the lightest and most practical, and a flat-horse carriage is the cheapest, but Zhang Qingting thought about it and ordered the most expensive two-horse carriage. Not only do people sit more, but it is also convenient to haul goods.
After negotiating the price, Zhang Qingting was about to make an IOU, but the shopkeeper grinned and said, "Let's ask your family leader to sign it!" You write a note and let the young man go to the academy for a trip! ”
Can't you trust me? Zhang Qingting gave up stupidly, and left a note to hand over to the shopkeeper, "Can I tow the car away today?" ”
"Of course you can! We can't trust anyone, and we can't trust Zhao Xiucai! The shopkeeper accepted her note, and immediately ordered the man to set up a two-horse cart, tie the cart behind him, and go with Zhang Qingting and them.
This line is on the road, it is magnificent, and many pedestrians on the road see it and ask, "Who buys such a big car?" ”
"Zhao Xiucai's family! Now that people can open a racecourse, they really have to be bold! ”
Wow! Racecourse! This is the best thing to do in the minds of all Zaranburg people! Or envy, or jealousy. But the news suddenly spread like wings through the streets of Zaranburg.
When he went to the horse farm to put down the cart, Yan Bowen searched for a long time, and only pulled out an old horse, "Plus the white horse that Brother Zhao rode home, just put this cart on!" ”
Zhang Qingting said, "Then you quickly teach Jinbao to learn to drive the car, and if you recruit someone in two days, let him drive the car!" ”
Yan Bowen was embarrassed when he heard this, "You want to say that you can ride a horse in any way, but this driving is really not my forte." ”
Zhang Qingting understood, how many sons and sons can catch a car? "It turns out that you can't do it!" ”
Yan Bowen's face turned red when he heard this, but he took the opportunity to mention, "I can learn for you." ”
Zhang Qingting was stunned, what does this mean? Yan Bowen turned around and walked away, she thought about it, and her face turned red. Was he hinting at her? But how could he have such thoughts?
Fang Mingzhu came over and looked at it and wondered, "Eldest sister, why is your face so red?" What about Aligo? Why did you just talk to you and walk away? ”
"He wants to do something, let's go back first!" Zhang Qingting prevaricated and wanted to leave.
But Fang Mingzhu was reluctant to leave, and said reluctantly, "Then can I stay here for a while?" "No mistakes, no skipping words.
"Yes!" Zhang Qingting glanced at her, "Unless you can ride a horse and go back by yourself for a while!" ”
Fang Mingzhu smiled cutely, "Then I'll let Brother Ali give it to me, and I'll ride that flame!" ”
Zhang Qingting poked her forehead with his finger, "You, do you also learn to think about others?" Ali has been busy all day during the day, you don't say that you are here to help, but you are still thinking about adding chaos, he sent you back, and you have to rush back at night, this coming and going is not tired and people are tired! ”
Fang Mingzhu pouted and thought about it, "Then I'll go and take away their change of clothes and go back with you!" ”
"It's like a sentence!" Zhang Qingting entered the workshop with her, "Let's see if there is anything in the house that should be collected, hurry up." They're more convenient, too! ”
After a while, the girls cleaned up and stopped, Zhang Qingting looked at such a big room, it was very inconvenient to eat and live together, and he thought in his heart that he would build a road wall for them in the house, and he would have to come and go often in the future, so it was better to build a small room next to it, and it would be good to settle accounts with guests. It's best to go to Hejia Racecourse to see how people get it, and learn by yourself.
When I came out here, it was noon when I got home.
Fang Mingzhu frowned and said, "It's a pity that the shortcut can only walk people, not cars and horses, otherwise how much time should we save?" ”
Zhang Qingting also had this intention, "Why didn't anyone organize the construction of a bridge?" ”
Zhang Facai interjected, "Even if the bridge is paved, you can't walk the carriage and horses?" ”
Zhang Qingting was surprised when he heard it, "Why can't you take the carriage and horse after the bridge is laid?" Wouldn't it be enough to pave some kind of big wooden bridge or stone bridge? ”
Zhang Facai shook his head, "I've never seen a bridge that can walk cars and horses, it's all such a single-plank bridge." If the water is washed away, it will be replaced with another one, and this has been the case for generations. ”
Zhang Qingting thought about it carefully, it seemed to be oh! There is really no bridge in Zaranburg. Where is like Nankangguo, the small bridge and flowing water, the bridge spans the north and south, that is, in the back garden of their own home, there are also many nine-curved covered bridges, with various postures and differences. There are few rivers in the north, so there are fewer bridges to build. Go back and ask Zhao Chengcai to see if you can let the government organize the construction of the bridge, even if you want to donate some money, it is also a merit.
I only heard the school bell ring, and I got out of school.
Zhao Chengcai came back after a while, and said as soon as he entered the door, "I have already made the IOU, Hongwen helped us make an appointment with Yapo, and I will send someone over to choose it in the afternoon." ”
Zhang Facai suddenly remembered something, "In the morning, the people from the He family came over there and said that his uncle knew that you were looking for him, and said that he would take time to come over in the evening of the next two days, and come over to invite you then." ”
Zhang Qingting hurriedly nodded and agreed, and was about to tell Zhao Chengcai about the white horse, but he heard the noise on the street, and many people rushed to their doors, led by Captain Cheng in the yamen, with a group of errands, and the escort was Zhao Yulian, who was dragging a string of people with ropes.
What's going on? Zhao Chengcai hurriedly greeted him, "Captain Cheng, is this an accident?" ”
Captain Cheng was beaming with joy, his face was full of red light, and he said very proudly, "Zhao Xiucai, we have sent your sister home safely, and now we have to go back to the yamen to report to the new magistrate, let your sister tell you the specific details!" Brethren, go! Before leaving, he secretly raised his thumb and whispered, "You girl is really Peugeot, no wonder the county magistrate is tempted!" ”
What does this mean? Zhao Chengcai didn't realize it, he walked away with his toes again.
