(30) The golden cicada should be shelled

According to Zhang Qingting's original plan, everything should have been arranged last night, and after today's game, he threw off the six members of the Zhang family directly from the gambling house and went to the dock to take a boat.

As for Lu Yin, she used a few dollars a few days ago, secretly coaxed a young man in the inn, took the population book to find Baojia and issued one to each member of the Zhang family. Baojia thought that the Zhang family was going to travel far away, and he was not suspicious, and it went very smoothly.

And with this credential, there is also money. Miss Zhang is ready for everything, only owes Dongfeng. You don't need luggage, as long as you have money, are you afraid that you won't be able to buy things? Holding a burden is also easy to arouse suspicion.

But there are always some things to prepare, that day, after sending Zhang Jinbao away, Zhang Qingting went to the silver building and ordered a few things, he said that he would get them the next day, and he had to go anyway before leaving today.

When they arrived at the inn, the men carried themselves back in an empty sedan chair.

Zhang Jinbao, who had been following him, asked enviously, "Eldest sister, what does this sedan chair smell like?" ”

How does this make people answer? Zhang Qingting glanced at him and went in.

The five members of the Zhang family were all there, and they were all very happy to know that Zhang Qingting had won thirty taels.

Zhang Xiaodie said diligently, "Big sister! We now have more than 60 taels of silver, should we repair the house at home and go back to live, or continue to live in this inn? ”

"Go back, of course!" Zhang Facai was almost recuperated from his injury, and his voice became louder, "No matter how good it is here, it is not our own home after all!" It costs money for the room! ”

"I said I might as well live here!" Zhang Jinbao interjected, "Our broken family, what is there to go back to?" The whole house is terrible, how can it be repaired for a few taels of silver? It's better to live in an inn, it's clean, someone cleans and takes care of three meals a day. Don't worry about anything! ”

This was supported by all the younger generations.

"You young people just forget your roots!" Zhang Luoshi hummed on the side, "The golden nest and the silver nest are not as good as your own kennel, that is the place handed down by the ancestors, how can you not go back?" ”

"You can't bear to go back by yourself!" Zhang Jinbao unceremoniously countered her.

Zhang Luo muttered unhappily, "I will be where my eldest daughter is." ”

This also represents the voice of everyone in the Zhang family.

Zhang Qingting glanced at the family coldly, and reminded him kindly, "It's not impossible to live in this inn, but have you ever thought about what to do if you run out of money?" ”

The six of them all looked at her dryly, and Zhang Qingting said angrily, "What do you think I do?" I'm not a god, and there's always a way to conjure up silver. What are you going to do if I don't have any money to make any money? ”

The six people looked away from each other, up and down, left and right, and did not say anything.

"Are you all going to drink the northwest wind? Or squatting on the side of the street and calling Hanako? Zhang Qingting rarely wanted to educate and educate everyone, so he pointed the finger at the eldest brother first, "Zhang Jinbao, you are also seventeen this year." In a few years, he is also going to marry a daughter-in-law. Not to mention you, if a girl from any family is willing to marry you, even if someone doesn't dislike it, how can you support your wife and children? You can't just sit idle all day long, right? ”

"That's it!" Zhang Facai saw that there was an attack target, thinking that the eldest daughter wanted to rectify the eldest son, so he immediately jumped out to help and put out the money of being a parent, "That Jinbao!" You are also the eldest child, follow your sister for the second time, learn to kill pigs! ”

"Hey!" This time Zhang Jinbao deserved it very happily, "Sister, whatever you do in the future, I will follow!" ”

Ha! Zhang Qingting was so angry that this family dared to pin their hopes on themselves.

Let's go, don't waste your lips and tongues, it's completely chicken and duck!

She turned her head and said, "Zhang Xiaodie, come with me!" ”

Zhang Xiaodie was very frightened when she saw that her face was not good, and she shrank back, even her voice trembled, expressing determination, "Big ...... Eldest sister...... I, I'm going to learn needlework in the future! ”

Zhang Qingting glanced at her, "Do you love to learn!" Come here, can I still eat you? ”

She went back to her room next door first, and Zhang Facai pushed Zhang Xiaodie, "If the eldest sister tells you to go, you will go!" Even if I scold you a few words, I won't lose a piece of meat! Just go! ”

Zhang Xiaodie flattened her mouth, but still followed honestly.

"Close the door." Zhang Qingting took the key from his sleeve and opened the dresser.

It turns out that this is for money! A stone in Zhang Xiaodie's heart immediately fell to the ground, quickly closed the door, trotted to the eldest sister's side and asked flatteringly, "Eldest sister, what is this for?" ”

Zhang Qingting picked up the rouge gouache on the top of the box, pointed to the silver money below and said, "There are more than 20 taels of silver here, save a little, and it is enough for a family to live in this inn for a year and a half." The population book is also here, I will give you this key now, you put this box away, don't let anyone touch it! Especially your father, you must guard against him! ”

Zhang Xiaodie was frightened, "Sister, you put this ...... Give me so much silver...... Do I keep it? ”

It's really unproductive! Zhang Qingting scolded secretly in his heart, but he still said with a pleasant face, "I see that you have been managing money well recently, I am thinking that in case I am not at home for something, it will be convenient for you to use it." ”

Afraid that she would be suspicious, he added, "I also have a key here, and you have a backup there." Of course, you have to report to me what you want to withdraw and where you use it, and if you want to make money privately, be careful that I peel off your skin! ”

was so scared and scolded, and it worked, Zhang Xiaodie immediately took the key, and nodded her head as if she was pounding garlic, "Sister, don't worry, I won't dare to spend a penny!" ”

"Hmm!" Zhang Qingting was already on his mind, "Okay, you go out, I want to rest for a while." ”

"Oh!" Zhang Xiaodie answered, and carefully held the key in the palm of her hand and went out.

Bolting the door again, Zhang Qingting took out the silver ticket hidden close to him, and poured out all the gold and silver in his purse to count it.

There is no need to move the silver ticket and gold, and a dozen taels of silver are left on the body, and this road is enough to spend. After thinking about it, she threw a few more small silver ingots into the box, so let's leave them a little more!

It's just that I'm going on my way, where are the silver tickets and gold hidden?

After thinking about it, Zhang Qingting looked at the rouge and hair oil, and suddenly had an idea.

Carefully took out the rouge block in the rouge box, and under the oval rouge iron box like a shell, there was a thick piece of oiled paper, and then down, there was a small gap, which just hid the folded silver ticket. As for the five taels of gold, it was even simpler, and it was thrown directly into a small bottle of osmanthus oil. The osmanthus oil is already very sticky, shake it a few times, let it sink to the bottom and get stuck, and it won't make a little sound if you shake it.

Zhang Qingting was very satisfied, put these two things in his arms, took the comb in his hand, and adjusted his makeup in the mirror. After thinking about it, I still took the charcoal that traced my eyebrows, found a piece of paper, and wrote a note on the table. Although this family is illiterate, they will always ask the literate gentleman, and then they will know that she left by herself, so as not to report to the government and cause trouble. You're all set! She crept out the door.

Miss Zhang took out the technique when she saw the distinguished guest, and carefully put the footsteps lighter than the cat, just walked through the straight road, and then turned around, and saw that she could slip away, and suddenly heard someone behind her asking, "Sister, where are you going?" ”

But it was the little brothers Yinbao and Yuanbao who were playing in the courtyard, and when they saw her go out, they inquired about each other.

Zhang Qingting turned around angrily, "I'll go out for a walk." ”

The two little brothers didn't dare to ask more, but shouted quickly, "Brother, the eldest sister said she wanted to go out!" ”

It means that your follower should hurry up and keep up! It's not that they are too careful, or they deliberately want to spy on Zhang Qingting, but these days they are used to seeing Zhang Jinbao following behind the eldest sister, so they take this for granted.

Zhang Qingting was so angry in his heart! But it's too late to stop it. As soon as the shouting was opened, the whole family came out.

Zhang Jinbao lifted his shoes and said, "Sister, why don't you call me when you want to go out?" ”

Zhang Qingting simply admitted generously, "I'm just a little bored, I want to go out for a walk, you don't have to follow!" ”

"How's that going to work?" Zhang Jinbao was also very courteous, "How can the eldest sister go out without anyone following?" Whatever you want to do, someone has to run errands, right? ”

What's the matter with you? Zhang Qingting pointed a knife at him in his heart and poked hard, poked hard! His face was faint, "I want to go shopping, and I take you a boy with me." Otherwise, if you don't worry, let Zhang Xiaodie accompany me. ”

"Okay!" Zhang Xiaodie blossomed and quickly came to her side, "It's appropriate for me to accompany my eldest sister to go shopping!" ”

Zhang Jinbao glanced at his sister very unhappily, unwilling to be replaced by his exclusive status.

"Let's go!" Zhang Qingting didn't have time to stay longer, and began to think about how to send this girl away for a while.

This bazaar is such a big place, Zhang Qingting did not shy away from it, and directly led Zhang Xiaodie into the silver building, showing the bill, "Man, I'll pick up the things I ordered before." ”

Zhang Xiaodie was very surprised, did the eldest sister wear any jewelry?

The guy took the bill and checked it, and immediately smiled and said, "Girl, please take a seat, it was done yesterday, and I will take it for you now!" ”

He entered the inner room and quickly took out a small wooden box, "Look, there are five of them, all of them are complete." ”

The five pieces of jewelry are all made of sterling silver, and the most eye-catching is a pair of finger-thick twisted silver bracelets and a pair of chopstick-thick plum blossom silver hairpins. The other three were all very small, a butterfly pendant, a pair of butterfly earrings the size of a fingernail, and a thin silver chain with a butterfly pendant the size of a chicken egg hanging from it.

Zhang Qingting took a closer look and was very satisfied, and immediately took out the tea stick in his ear and put on the pair of earrings, which was very suitable. He put the hairpin on his head, and the whole person added a lot of color.

"It's beautiful!" It is the nature of girls to love beauty, especially beautiful jewelry.

Zhang Xiaodie has never really touched a real gold and silver when she is so big, she can't even take her eyes off it, and carefully caresses the jewelry in the box, envious. How much does it cost to have so much jewelry? The eldest sister is really magnanimous!

"If you like it, take one! Try it yourself. "Zhang Qingting is very generous.

"Whoa!" Zhang Xiaodie was overjoyed and deserved to be extra sweet, and began to make gestures in front of the mirror. Especially those two big pieces of silver jewelry, I can't put it down.

It's really uninsightful! Zhang Qingting was amused in his heart, but he just took the opportunity to turn around and quietly settle the bill with his buddy.
