After Zhu Hongyu explained Chang Pingchuan's affairs, Chang Pingchuan took the order and returned to the gate, and continued to be on duty motionless.

After a while, Amber came back with Zhan Ao, and when he saw a person lying on his stomach at the door, Chang Pingchuan stared at it tightly, and he didn't dare to look more, so he hurriedly walked around and entered the house.

Zhu Hongyu happened to finish making the last incense stick, and was relieved to see the two people coming back.

"Why did you come back so late?"

Amber stepped forward and hugged Vermilion.

"My brother came back early and came to Sanguan Temple to see me and my grandmother. I helped with some work, and then I came back. ”

"Busy over there?" Vermilion asked Amber.

Amber nodded, these days have been really busy.

"Yes, all the villages in ten miles have come to buy malaria pills, and they are really too busy."

Zhu Hongyu sighed in her heart, and secretly said that Runye was a virgin's heart.

He had to exhaust himself half to death, in order to realize his dream of "saving the world".

"Okay, you've done a great job. Let Lingzhi wait for a change of clothes. The house has new furniture today, so let's take a look? ”

Amber was out of spirit, but she was still a child, and when she heard that there was new furniture in the house, she hurriedly went upstairs with Zhan Ao to see.

New furniture always brings a sense of joy to children and even adults.

Zhu Hongyu cared about the beggar at the door and walked to the door.

Sure enough, there was a beggar lying on his stomach at the door of their house, motionless.

"Chang Pingchuan, let's move people to the ear room of the first courtyard."

That's it, people have been lying down for so long and have not moved, I am afraid that it is also low blood sugar, and no one in this world is hard.

Let's be a good person this time.

Chang Pingchuan was a martial artist, and he went out of the door and carried the beggar into the house and put it in the ear room.

The old furniture that was cleaned up today is piled up in the ear room.

He found one with a mat still on it, and put the beggar down.

Zhu Hongyu came out of the kitchen with porridge and walked to the ear room to place it on a shabby coffee table.

The beggar was sweating profusely, describing it as withered, and Zhu Hongyu was really hungry and faint.

Zhu Hongyu asked Chang Pingchuan: "I haven't been out for the past few days, it seems that there are a lot of displaced people in the village these days?" ”

"Yes." Chang Pingchuan knows a lot about this, because he has been going out a lot lately.

"What's going on?"

"This year there has been a lot of rain, some places have flooded, displaced people, many of them used to be rich families, and a flood will leave nothing."

When Zhu Hongyu heard this, she could empathize with her.

If there is a natural disaster now, she really doesn't have the courage to stand up.

"It may be that Sanguan Temple closed early today, you fed him, and watch this person, don't let him make trouble."

"Yes."

Zhu Hongyu returned to the house after explaining Chang Pingchuan, wrapped four red envelopes in the house, and when Lingzhi entered the house to cut the candle, he handed the red envelopes to Lingzhi and ordered him to prepare for sleep.

But after nightfall, it can't be calm for a long time. Although the new shelf bed was comfortable, she still continued the habit of not being able to sleep when changing beds.

Early in the morning, she went downstairs after not sleeping all night, and her stomach was unbearably hungry, so she searched for the kitchen and boiled a pot of eggs.

Scouring two bowls, the eggs were served.

One of the bowls was breakfast for the beggars.

She ate two of them herself and never wanted to eat them again. I thought about boiled eggs, and they were really delicious when I ate them once in a while.

When he walked into the hospital, Chang Pingchuan hadn't woken up yet, and the second dog got up early and opened the courtyard door to sprinkle and sweep.

The second dog saw that Zhu Hongyu arrived at the courtyard and saluted respectfully. Zhu Hongyu replied, walked to the ear room and pushed open the door of the ear room.

Unexpectedly, when the door was pushed, the beggar sat on the bed, as if he had just woken up.

"Yo, up?"

Zhu Hongyu put breakfast on the shabby coffee table, and then picked up the bowl he had eaten last night.

"Disturb Miss, Xiaosheng is rude."

Only when Zhu Hongyu heard this voice could he tell that this was a young man, and his speech was very civil.

However, the man's face was covered in mud and his clothes were in tatters. More exaggerated hair, scattered and tangled, stained with a lot of dirt.

I don't know what this man has been through.

"Is there a name?"

"Xiaosheng's cheap name is Shen Hanyang."

Zhu Hongyu hooked her lips and smiled, although this beggar was not dirty, he spoke elegantly.

"How did you become a beggar and wander to our village?"

Shen Hanyang sighed, and two lines of tears welled up.

"I'm from Yueyang City, next door to Yunmeng Town, and my father runs a tavern in the city. Unexpectedly, the official master of Yueyang City was provoked, and the tavern was immediately seized. The official asked us to be beggars, and my father and mother starved to death last winter......"

It's really a man who doesn't flick when he has tears, just because he hasn't reached the sad place.

The memory of the original owner is similar to this, except that he died of illness and starvation...... It's better to die of illness.

"Two dogs."

Zhu Hongyu shouted in the house, and Ergou ran in, and said respectfully: "Miss! ”

"After Mr. Shen finishes eating, boil water for him, take a bath, and get his clothes."

"Yes."

Zhu Hongyu walked out of the door, sleepiness hit, and after dealing with this beggar's business, she was also tired.

Back in the house, Zhu Hongyu made up for a sleep, and did not eat lunch until the hottest hour in the afternoon, when she was woken up by the heat.

"Miss, wake up."

Lingzhi entered with a cup of tea, and waited for Zhu Hongyu to drink water and wipe her sweat.

"Wake up, where's Mr. Shen?"

"In the morning, Ergou cleaned up for the man, and at noon Taro made a good meal. I'm full and clamoring to see you. ”

Zhu Hongyu was helpless, someone looked for her after she slept for a while, and she was really busy this day.

"Where is he now?"

"Waiting in the guest hall."

Zhu Hongyu put on her shoes, walked downstairs, and turned a corner to the guest hall.

In the guest seat, Shen Hanyang sat respectfully, and when he saw Zhu Hongyu, he quickly got up and saluted.

When she looked up again, Zhu Hongyu was amazed.

Naturally, it is not as good-looking as Runye, Du Yuexiao and the like. However, the appearance is very thoughtful, with an elegant wind, and there is a faint sadness between the eyebrows, which can be seen to be suffering.

"Lingzhi, add tea to Mr. and let the taro make some snacks."

"Yes."

Zhu Hongyu carried her skirt and sat on the main seat. Her undisguised gaze made Shen Hanyang hurriedly lower his head.

"I listen to your demeanor and speech are very elegant, but what books have you read?"

"I have read all the important four books and five classics, and I am also famous, and I am a talent."

Xiucai, amazing. Although Xiucai is not as valuable as lifting people, the admission rate of the ancient imperial examination is so low, and Xiucai is also very powerful.

If he had a reputation for raising people, he would not be bullied like this by an official master.

"Do you have any relatives in the family who can take refuge?"

"I heard that there was a relative in Taohua Village, and when I came yesterday afternoon, the villagers said that the whole family had gone."

Shen Hanyang's tone was sad and desperate, not to mention, Zhu Hongyu was still pitiful.

"Really? That's unfortunate. ”

Before Zhu Hongyu's words fell, Lingzhi made tea and brought it to Zhu Hongyu, and the small snack that the taro had just made was placed in the hands of the two of them, one plate for each person.

"And what are you going to do?"

Shen Hanyang just shook his head and sighed, and said, "Go back, you must beg for a living." I know how to write some ink, or help people write letters in Yunmeng Town, or tell stories in taverns, or sell obscene songs in Fireworks Willow Lane. ”

Zhu Hongyu smiled meaningfully, and Shen Hanyang quickly stood up and apologized.

"Foul language in front of the young lady, Xiaosheng deserves to die."

"It doesn't matter." Zhu Hongyu took a sip of tea, "You are really desperate, so you don't choose what to say." These are all good ways out, but they are not as good as Mr. Teaching. ”

"Yes, I want to be a teacher too. But I had no choice but to offend the official master, and my household registration has been pulled into the lowly register. ”

This is the second time Zhu Hongyu has heard talk about the household registration system.

"Isn't it clear to me about the household registration system of this dynasty, sir?"

Shen Hanyang smiled humbly and said, "Xiaosheng doesn't know very much, but he knows a little bit about it. ”

"Tell me, I'll listen."

"The household registration system of our dynasty is divided into: scholarly registration, agricultural registration, industrial and commercial registration, lowly registration, and empty registration. After a person is born, with the nationality of his parents, a woman marries and follows her husband. After having meritorious fame, he was recruited into the scholar's register. If you have made a big deal, become a craftsman, and have an intersection with the government, you are an industrial and commercial citizen. All of the above are capable of the imperial examination. The lowly ones are the actors, beggars, and the like. The empty register is the registered monk of the Buddha. These two are not subject to the imperial examination. ”

Zhu Hongyu nodded in satisfaction.

"Sir erudite."

Shen Hanyang finally had a smile on his face, and quickly humbled himself: "Don't dare to be, don't dare to be, just know a little bit about it." ”

Zhu Hongyu thought, this person is really pitiful, and he doesn't know what a big deal he has done, and he was pulled into a lowly status.

It is estimated that the official master is also afraid of Shen Hanyang's revenge, after all, a person who has been admitted to Xiucai can go to the entrance examination, in case he is selected......

"Mr. Shen, I don't understand...... What did Ling Zun Lingtang offend the official master? ”

Shen Hanyang sighed and said, "That day, the official came to dinner, and our family insisted on collecting money, and even made trouble in Hangzhou Mansion. ”

It's really hard to visit shang. Throughout the ages, it is better to be a man and be obscure, but as a result, I can't fight for this breath, so I will lose myself.

Zhu Hongyu tapped the tea bowl with the lid, making a crisp and pleasant sound.

"How about Mr. Shen stay?"

Shen Hanyang looked at Zhu Hongyu in surprise, and retracted his gaze very bitterly.

"This, this ......"

"Don't get me wrong, I have a younger brother who is not talented at the age of studying, and he has been looking for a husband recently. Give you eight taels of silver a year, do you think it's okay? ”

Eight taels of silver?

Shen Hanyang couldn't believe it, he had been unlucky for too long, and he didn't believe it if he had good news today.

"Well, it's okay, you think about it too. If they could, the boys would live in a hospital. I'm going to have someone pack up a room for you today. ”

Shen Hanyang knelt down from the stool all of a sudden, tears of excitement welling up like a spring.

"Miss Xie, Xiaosheng, is very gracious, and Kunyu will definitely be able to win the Toad Palace and take the lead."

Zhu Hongyu didn't expect her brother to have much attainment, she just found a gentleman to avoid him being bored. She stood up, stepped forward, and hurriedly helped Shen Hanyang get up from the ground.

"By the way, I also have a younger sister, and I want her to read some books in order to understand things. If she can be familiar with piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, she will not feel tired. ”

Shen Hanyang said very modestly: "Xiaosheng knows a little, and Ling Mei is willing to do her best." ”

Zhu Hongyu sat on the main seat, very satisfied, but she didn't expect to do a good deed and pick up a treasure.

She said to Lingzhi on the side: "Go and clean up the east guest room of the first courtyard and give it to Mr. to live in." Asked Sister Liu to come over and cut two clothes for Mr. and change clothes. ”

After Zhu Hongyu finished arranging the Lingzhi, she turned to Mr. Shen and said, "I am the master in this family, if you lack anything, just tell me." ”

Shen Hanyang saluted again and thanked Zhu Hongyu, Lingzhi waited for Shen Hanyang to finish the sour salute, and took Shen Hanyang out of the guest hall.
