Chapter 122

Back at the inn, Lin Baozhu saw that Shi Dayong's family hadn't come back yet, and then looked at the wrinkled clothes on his body, so he simply went back to the house to wash up first, and then changed into a clean one. 【Latest chapter reading. It's also thanks to her foresight that she brought a spare set of clothes with her when she came, for fear of a dirty set of annoying jokes on her body that had not been changed.

When it was almost evening, Shi Dayong brought Zhang Xiuniang and Zhao Di back. Seeing a few people carrying things in large bags and small bags, it seems that they have gained a lot, and Zhao Di is a restrained person is also a little happy at this time, especially after seeing Lin Baozhu, his eyes lit up all of a sudden, and then he took a small box over.

"Auntie, this is what I picked and gave you to wear." The little girl seems to be giving such a solemn gift for the first time, and she is still giving a jewel body that she admires and likes, and her face is red and her eyes are full of flattery and joy.

Lin Baozhu sighed, seeing her happy expression, she naturally couldn't bear to say anything to refuse to be polite. Originally, the two families had been together for a long time, and she was sincere to them, so she took it over without twisting it immediately, and then opened it in Zhao Di's expectant eyes.

Inside is a brightly colored hand rope made of red rope, which looks like the appearance and flower shape that girls of Zhaodi's age like. Although she is past that age, she still can't bear to touch Zhao Di's heart.

In fact, in her previous life, when she was as old as Zhao Di, she also liked to fiddle with these like other little girls. At that time, every time I learned to weave a knot or something rare, I would be proud for many days. I especially remember that glass rope seemed to be very popular at that time, and a few small bells were braided together as bracelets. Of course, I will also make a ring or something next to it, and it is full of memories when I think about it.

She picked up the red rope bracelet, and then smiled and asked Zhao Di to help bring it. didn't look at the appearance of Shi Dayong and Zhang Xiuniang who wanted to talk and stopped, but raised his arm and looked at it for a while, and then said happily to Zhao Di: "Auntie likes this bracelet very much, looking at the big red one, it looks a lot whiter." ”

After receiving the compliment, Zhao Di's face naturally turned red, but she was still a little embarrassed and said, "I'll buy a better one for my aunt in the future." ”

Seeing this scene, Shi Dayong and Zhang Xiuniang were moved. Originally, they still thought that their daughter was messing around, others didn't know, but they did know that as Zhang Ji's real manager, Baozhu had no shortage of items in his hands. What's more, after all, she is Zhang Ji's family, can she still see a red rope?

But now seeing the happy appearance of the girl, and then seeing Lin Baozhu pulling the girl to whisper, the eyes of the two couldn't help but be a little moist, and in the end they just looked at each other and smiled, and they became more and more determined to repay this friendship.

After shopping around the street all day and buying a lot of things, I was asked by my aunt at this time, and Zhao Di couldn't stop talking. Occasionally praised by Aunt Baozhu, she is still a little shy and embarrassed, but she is happy in her heart.

After saying a few words, Lin Baozhu called a guy to ask for some food and let people send it to the room. Although they have two rooms, it is naturally better to eat together.

While eating, Lin Baozhu mentioned to Shi Dayong about the old Mr. Zhao in the east of the city. When he said this, Shi Dayong exclaimed, and then said that he was not the old gentleman who came back from Dazhou City?

The two of them are a pair carefully, and they seem to be really one person. Seeing that Shi Dayong seemed to know something, Lin Baozhu couldn't help but ask.

It turns out that Mr. Zhao is really famous, and he can be listed in Yanjing, although he is not as good as those contemporary Confucians, but he is also really talented. When Shi Dayong was on an errand in the county government before, he once heard the master book say that the old gentleman had a very strange temper, not to mention that his eyes were above the top, it was almost the same. The point is that people look down on profit-seeking copper-smelling businessmen the most

Speaking of this, Shi Dayong looked at Lin Baozhu with some embarrassment. If I could really invite that old gentleman to sit in the museum and be a teacher, it would be a blessing for generations of future generations in Peachtree Bay Village. can be biased, and the private school still bears the name of Zhang Ji.

"Didn't you say that he caused some trouble and got here?" Lin Baozhu frowned, and also thought of finding a good way, at least to make people feel relieved.

Originally, she also planned to hire with a lot of money, or give some benefits in the midst of hardship, which can be regarded as giving some kindness, and then making people feel relieved. After all, a down-and-out gentleman, no matter how capable he is, still needs a place to eat.

But now it seems that she still thinks simply, at the very least, the old gentleman's disgust with the smell of copper is enough to see his high spirit. Anyway, whether it's true or not, I guess there will be some weird tempers.

"I don't know about this, he has been in Taoxi County for a long time, and he has never dealt with anyone on weekdays. On the Yamen side, the lord also instructed not to go to the east of the city to disturb the old man's house. Shi Dayong thought about it, but didn't come up with one or two. He thought that it was estimated that the emaciated camel was bigger than the horse, and the adults were also afraid of causing trouble, after all, an old gentleman might come out of nowhere to teach the students who had already done something.

Lin Baozhu nodded, thought about it for a while, and only felt a headache. I thought it was not a big deal to open a private school, after all, Li Zheng also said that as long as it is not an official school, there is no need to report to the government.

But the reality gave her a slap in the face, with no backstage and no background, relying only on silver, she couldn't take a step in this hierarchical society. Even a talent with a little temper or ability will not go to the village private school for that little restraint.

Do you really want to find a down-and-out reader on the street who makes a living from calligraphy and painting to teach children knowledge? Not to mention his knowledge and character, he said that he wanted to preach and teach to solve doubts, and I am afraid that he can only do superficial articles.

"Forget it, let's go see it tomorrow, if it doesn't work, I'll think of another way." Lin Baozhu rubbed his throbbing braincase, it really didn't work, so he asked Liu Jincai to teach him for a few days, no matter what he said, he had to open the private school first.

After eating, it was already late. During the day, whether it was Lin Baozhu who went to the barracks, or the three members of the Shi family who had been shopping all day, they were a little tired at this time, so they simply slept separately.

Because Lin Baozhu was alone, Zhao Di stayed with her.

This night, several people slept very soundly, and when they woke up again, it was already bright. Outside, there was also the shouting of the early morning sellers and the street sellers, mixed with the cool air in the early morning, which was really refreshing.

While a few people were eating, Lin Baozhu asked a few clever guys about Mr. Zhao in Chengdong, but he didn't ask about anything. It was rumored that the old gentleman was very eccentric, had a big temper and could not do anything, and did not even have a neighbor.

Lin Baozhu saw that he couldn't hear anything, so he put out the calculation in his heart. Originally, I wanted to do what he liked, but at least I had to know where he was weird, so that I could deal with it. But after asking around, no one could say one, two, or three.

Either way, people are going to take a look and ask for a look. So after eating, let Zhang Xiuniang take Zhao Di to buy some more things, and she went out with Shi Dayong.

Since you have to visit people, you can't do it empty-handed. After thinking about it, Lin Baozhu went to Anping Tea House to buy some good tea, and then took out the white cockscomb spring tea that he had wrapped before, and finally gritted his teeth and bought a few ancient books.

said that it was an ancient book, but in fact, Lin Baozhu didn't know the year, but she chose two books with her eyesight. Anyway, it's all her heart. At that time, regardless of whether the old gentleman accepts it or not, he should be able to add some points.

I don't know if it's useful or not, anyway, the mule cart is heading towards the east of the city.

After all, the county seat is like a township, and it is only when people come and go at the market. Here, even if it's not market time, there are people coming from all over the road. It was also to avoid crowded places, so they walked around from outside the county all the way. Fortunately, Shi Dayong was familiar with it and didn't feel embarrassed.

On the road, there were a lot of ox carts or mule carts, and there were people with children resting on the side of the road. Even if the family is poor and the body is only coarse cloth clothes, as long as people are together, there will be a head. Occasionally, there will be men carrying firewood, and it is estimated that they want to change some copper plates to live.

Lin Baozhu looked at the people on the road, and the anxiety that had risen just now slowly subsided. If you come to it, you will be safe, and it is naturally good to be able to invite someone out of the mountain, and if you don't move, it can be regarded as her hard work.

Thinking of this, she was no longer upset, and simply twisted her head to look at the scene around. It's late autumn, and the buds in the fields everywhere have been harvested, and occasionally you can see a vegetable garden that has begun to wither and yellow, and some vegetable seedlings are wilting and crawling on the vegetable shelf.

The mule cart creaked and creaked all the way along, and it took a quarter of an hour before it stopped.

"Brother and sister, the land has arrived. But it looks like there's no one. ”

Lin Baozhu raised his eyebrows and jumped off the mule cart to take a look. This place is really remote and tight, much farther than the residence of the sixth son, if you walk a few steps, you can get out of the city. However, compared with the bustling and lively county, it is also quiet.

Looking at the two willow trees in front of the door, as well as the deep path and the two flower beds on the edge of the fence, which were already a little deserted, she couldn't help but think of a poem. The winding path leads to the secluded place, and the flowers and trees in the meditation room are deep. If this is in spring and summer, I am afraid it will really have some artistic conception.

But now she didn't have the heart to appreciate anything, and looked up at the thatched house in the fence yard, the door was closed, there was no sound at all, and it was really as if no one was there.

However, when she saw the books drying on the big rocks in the yard, she couldn't help but smile. I'm afraid it's not that I'm not there, but I want to hide from people.

She's not afraid to wait, anyway, there's nothing to do today, after tossing like this, it's really unwilling to see her. Instead, she sat on the mule cart and drank two sips of water from the bladder.

It's not a good day, I'm afraid it's going to rain for a while
