(13) Another passer-by by the river
As soon as the door opened, the people outside were stupid.
Zhang Qingting frowned slightly with some displeasure, and opened his mouth first, "Everyone has picked it up?" ”
"Big ...... Eldest sister? Zhang Jinbao stammered, as if he didn't recognize her, up and down, left and right, looked at her dozens of back and forth, and didn't dare to be sure.
"Eat." Zhang Qingting only used two words to sober up his senses.
"What to eat?" These two words are really good, Zhang Jinbao even speaks fluently.
With two money, Zhang Qingting didn't want to be too wronged by himself, "Go outside and order a few dishes and eat rice." ”
Zhang Jinbao's eyes widened wider than the copper bell, which ...... Isn't that ...... It's not about ...... Want to go to the restaurant?
It's a pity that he has grown so big, and he hasn't been to the restaurant once, I originally thought that a few steamed buns would be good with a round belly, but I didn't expect the eldest sister to be so good, and she wanted to take them down to the restaurant, which is really exciting!
Zhang Qingting didn't know that this family had never seen the world so much, and there was such a lack of oil and water in his stomach. Otherwise, she must arrange a few bowls of shredded pork noodles or a few steamed buns with side dishes to send the family away.
Like now, she was afraid that she would not have enough to eat, so she ordered a total of eight dishes and two soups, which should be very hearty. As a result, Zhang Qingting's small bowl of rice only went down a small half, except for the two dishes she let put in front of her, the family was like a locust transiting, each eating two large bowls of rice, and eating the rest of the dishes cleanly, the plate was licked so that even the oil star was gone, and the light was recognizable. Zhang Qingting suspected that he didn't need to be cleaned and could be served again.
The family still looked at her, the big owner, with the humble and pitiful begging in their eyes, which conveyed a message together: I didn't eat enough, I didn't eat enough, I want to continue, I want to continue!
Being stared at like this, Zhang Qingting couldn't eat the dragon meat in front of him, but he couldn't help them eat and drink so much. beckoned to call Xiao Er, and one person served a bowl of noodles in the sea, asking for chicken soup, pork, or beef, but they chose at their choice.
In the end, it was the soup stuffed in the stomach, and the family ate so much that the stomach was round, and it really couldn't hold on, so I wiped the grease and finally put down the chopsticks.
When the guests next to him saw the family's eating appearance, they inevitably pointed a little, Zhang Qingting was like sitting on pins and needles, thinking that he would never bring them to the hall in the future!
In the end, she ate the remaining two dishes and asked Zhang Luoche to bring them back to the house. Although I can't eat it at this time, I can still hold it later. Zhang Qingting was out of sight and out of mind, so she went.
After eating and drinking, the pile of locusts went back to lie on the bed and could not move.
Zhang Xiaodie saw that her eldest sister was tidy and her eyes were hot, and she also wanted to take a shower and change into new clothes.
This love of cleanliness is a good habit, anyway, Zhang Qingting has the habit of taking a walk after dinner, so he took the silver and the dresser together, locked it in the cabinet, collected the key, let her bathe the room, and walked outside the inn by himself. By the way, you have to think about it, what will you do in the future?
The market is not large, and there are houses outside the inn. Most of the people who live here are people who buy and sell in the market, and of course they have more money than the surrounding farmers, and their houses are more neat.
In the end, there are no merchants and no wealth! Zhang Qingting felt in his heart that although business is a ninth-rate business, his life is much more nourishing, not to mention those really rich businessmen and wealthy people, and they are the objects of competition among the court magnates of various countries.
Their Zhang family, on the surface, relied on their father's prominent official position, but in fact, they relied on a large number of dowries brought by their mother to have little savings. Although he was not very harmonious with her, Zhang Qingting also admitted in his heart that if it weren't for such a shrewd and powerful mother's hard work, I don't know what life would have become. Looking around, there are more poor officials in the capital! Therefore, whether it is a private family or an official family, proper business is the foundation of prosperity.
Thinking about it, she sighed again, if her mother was not shrewd, she would not have promised her to Pan Yunbao for that rich dowry. I am afraid that the mistaken belief in people's words is false, and the coveting of the bride price is true.
There is a good and a bad in all things, and it depends only on what falls on you.
The moon is rising, shining on the Erdaozi ditch sparkling, and the silver is broken.
The flowing water does not know the hatred of the girl, and is still singing loudly, gradually widening the river and converging into the Lotus River.
Zhang Qingting angrily kicked the pebble at his feet into the river, but only made a small splash, and soon disappeared silently.
The previous home, although suffocated like a cage, could shelter her from the wind and rain. And now, he is completely free, but he has also lost all barriers and has to be completely self-reliant.
After a long sip of the cool fresh breath by the river, and exhaled it deeply, after a few back and forth, Zhang Qingting felt that his heart was gradually broadened, and he began to calmly think about several urgent things.
The first incident is the Zhao family's family affairs.
Now that he has money, he doesn't have to worry, so Ming'er hurried to return the marriage and get the population book back. Thinking of smashing the silver in front of the penny old pious woman, which made her shocked and speechless, Zhang Qingting felt a burst of happiness in his heart, and his mood was much better.
The second case is the six mouths of the Zhang family.
Just that meal, she ate one or two taels of silver, and according to this way of eating, the remaining thirty taels of silver in her hand could be eaten up in less than a month.
This Zhang Qingting is not a dragonfly, she Miss Zhang doesn't have that obligation, and she doesn't have the ability to feed so many mouths. Just pay a little money and get rid of it all!
Zhang Qingting suddenly thought again, I wonder if that Zhang Dragonfly is also eating like this when he arrives at his house? That's a shame to be thrown into Java!
She just wanted to laugh, but then she remembered that she was using her own face, which was really depressing. On second thought, it's okay to let my mother bother! is such a pig-killing girl, if she marries into the Pan family, she will lose the face of the Zhang family! Speaking of which, it's also the mother's discipline that has no way!
Zhang Qingting was in a good mood for a while, and he was full of interest to think about his future outcome.
What to do?
Miss Zhang will have a lot, not to mention horse hanging, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, cutting and embroidery, all the skills of aristocratic women, she is not proficient in everything, at least she can play well.
But these can only be used as a pastime, and it is too hard to make a living from it. Could it be that you still have to show up to sell words, or embroider women who don't lift their heads all day long? Then it's better to find someone to play two rounds of mahjong!
Miss Zhang was very distressed. In her life, she would only stretch out her hands with clothes, open her mouth when she eaten, call slaves and maids, and dress up. But how can there be such a good thing in the world?
Unless, marry a rich man.
But where are the rich people?
Zhang Qingting thought of He Yutang, he looked like a rich man in this market, and he seemed to be very interested in himself. I just don't know what he does, does he marry a wife? But even if he is a rich man and he is not married, can he still be a big girl who can rush directly to him and say, hey! Rich man, I want to marry you, you marry me!
Isn't that a nymphomaniac? Zhang Qingting thought about it to himself, and felt funny.
Besides, with Zhang Dragonfly's identity, even if she marries into a wealthy family, I am afraid she can only be like her mother, wronged and wronged to be a concubine, and allowed to be bullied.
What can I do? Miss Zhang was so worried that she unconsciously walked into the grove by the river.
"Brother? Elder brother! ”
A person came over and shouted softly, and the voice was very low, as if he was afraid of being heard.
Zhang Qingting was suspicious, and quickly dodged and hid behind a tree.
I saw a dark shadow next to me greet me, "Here!" What do you think? Did you give the money? ”
Why is this sound so familiar?
Zhang Qingting remembered, wasn't this the passerby B he met on the bridge early in the morning?
