When Zhang Sangui opened the door early this morning, he found a girl in Tsing Yi fainting at the door of his rice shop.

Maybe it was because she was sick in the rain, the girl looked weak, and when Zhang Sangui found her, she was still having a high fever.

But the girl is very beautiful, even if her face is covered with mud, she can still see it through her eyebrows and eyes, but her face is a little sickly pale and her blue clothes are wet with some mud after being wet by the rain.

The sickly pale face is as white as snow, and the cyan blood vessels under the skin are faintly visible, and in Zhang Sangui's eyes, there is a strange beauty.

The thin wife did not approve of him carrying the girl into the house.

The girl had a high fever and was unconscious.

The blue clothes worn by the girl were materials she had never seen before, and at first glance they were far from being comparable to the woolen cotton dresses she wore herself, and they were definitely only available in the homes of the powerful people she usually looked up to.

No, when the daughter of the imperial general came out, she also took a look at it from a distance, and with a woman's natural sensitivity to clothes, she almost dared to conclude that the material of the general's daughter was not as good as the material of the girl's clothes, although she did not know what the material of the girl's blue dress was.

She was instinctively a little afraid of the girl in yellow of unknown origin, afraid of causing some trouble.

The girl was unconscious with a high fever, and if there was a three-year-old and two-short, I was afraid that their whole family would have to ride up.

She finally agreed that Zhang Sangui asked the girl to be carried into the house, definitely not because Zhang Sangui had absolute authority in this family or because she was soft-hearted for a while, but because Zhang Sangui said something like this to her:

"This girl is not easy at first glance, and we have taken her in today, and her family will have to show it when she comes to find her in the future. ”

The casual expression of people who can wear such good materials is also a great wealth or a great opportunity for them.

Thinking of the great benefits that were very likely to come, she finally agreed.

This is the wish of a small person like them, after all, no one wants to live a life that is not too rich in a small rice shop all their lives, if there is a better possibility.

The girl looked a little weak, but in fact there was no serious illness, and she was unconscious, and she only had a high fever because of the rain.

After Zhang Sangui's thin wife settled her on the bed and took out the quilt that was only used in winter to cover the girl, the girl was already in a daze.

Finally, after the swarthy wife fed her a bowl of warm gruel, the girl woke up.

Zhang Sangui and his thin wife were a little happy when they saw the girl wake up, and hurriedly asked about the girl's situation.

For example, which family she is the daughter of, who her parents do, and so on.

The couple was busy for a long time, and unfortunately there were no answers to these questions.

The girl couldn't remember who she was, where her home was, and she had forgotten everything she had before.

"Daddy, come here. "Zhang Sangui's wife

stood up and walked to the door and shouted at Zhang Sangui.

"His father, this girl's origin is unknown, or we should report to the official, I am always a little unsure. Zhang Sangui's wife said: "Don't get something wrong when you don't get benefits." ”

Reaching out and touching his already somewhat thinning hair, Zhang Sangui was a little undecided: "You wait for me to think about it." ”

"What else do you want?" his wife's thin face was full of anxiety, "If there is something long, I am afraid that I will get into a lawsuit." ”

The family runs a rice shop. She doesn't worry about eating and drinking, but she doesn't grow white or fat, and her thin chest is like a flat door panel.

Hearing his wife say this, Zhang Sangui couldn't insist anymore: "Okay, let her stay for three more days, and I'll send her to the government", he promised his wife.

"Now she is still sick, and she doesn't know who she is, and I'm afraid I can't tell if she goes to the government. ”

He explained.

The wife no longer insisted, but shouted with a black face: "Who told you to pick it up at that time? This girl is really, it is not good to fall in front of someone's house, but she will fall in front of our house." ”

"Okay, let's not talk about it, let's go cook, I didn't eat enough in the morning, and now I'm a little hungry", Zhang Sangui waved his hand impatiently, interrupting his wife's words and said.

"I'll go out and ask if there's any news of this girl. Zhang Sangui said.

The swarthy wife walked towards the stove room, her thin body without the charm of a mature woman.

Looking at his wife's back, Zhang Sangui frowned with some disgust, and spat on the ground fiercely. Then he glanced into the room, and swept his gaze from the open door into the room to the girl lying on the bed, and turned and walked out the door.

Walk through the two mulberry trees planted in the small courtyard to the rice shop in front of you, put the removed door panel back on and walk towards the street on your right.

There used to be a long alley on the right side of this street, and when Zhang Sangui walked into the alley, it was noon, and there was no one in the alley.

Coming to a red-lacquered wooden door with a façade that is obviously larger and more elegant, tuk tuk tuk ...... , Zhang Sangui raised his hand and knocked on the door panel three times, but there was no reaction inside, he raised his hand and knocked three times, tuk tuk tuk tuk ...... , A somewhat shrill voice came from inside, and the man's voice asked with dissatisfaction: "Who, come to knock on the door early in the morning." "It looks like I've just woken up.

At this time, the sun was in the middle of the day, but the people inside said that it was early in the morning.

With a squeak, the red flag wooden door opened, and a head wearing a cyan hat poked out of it, and when he saw Zhang Sangui in front of him, he immediately changed into a smiling face: "Yo...... , It turned out to be Master Zhang, why did you come so early today?" While opening the door, Zhang Sangui was welcomed in: "Master Zhang, you are really able to pinch and calculate, a few good girls came to the courtyard yesterday, and they have not yet come to pick up guests, so I will let you catch up today." ”

"Where did you come from?" Zhang Sangui asked.

"The girls are from Qingyuan, all of them are charming and smart, no matter what you are satisfied with", the man wearing a cyan hat said while talking about Zhang Sangui to lead inside: "There were few guests who came when it rained last night, so those few are still chicks, Master Zhang is really lucky, this makes you deserve to have a relationship with them." ”

Hearing him say this, Zhang Sangui only felt that the fire under his lower abdomen was burning more and more, and his steps were a little faster.

......

When the black and thin wife had finished lunch, Zhang Sangui had not come back, so she took a bowl of rice and took an empty bowl to divide the dish into three parts, one in the pot on the stove, and covered the pot. There is some hot water in the pot, and the charcoal made of wood when cooking in the stove has not been completely extinguished, so that the meal can be kept for a while and will not be cold, and it will have to be heated again when Zhang Sangui comes back.

Brought the other one into the room and put it on the table and beckoned the girl on the bed to get up and eat, the girl woke up and was able to walk on the ground, and after the high fever subsided, there was no major problem in her body, although she still looked a little weak.

The girl's wet clothes were changed by her thin wife, and she was wearing her clothes, and the girl was taller and fatter than her, and her breasts, which had been slightly bulging, showed her shape.

The thin wife looked a little unhappy, and Zhang Sangui lowered his head after a glance and didn't know what he was thinking.

The thin wife sat down at the table and ate another bowl of rice on the table, muttering: "This short-lived ghost said that he was hungry at the beginning, but when he was ready, he didn't see anyone." ”

Zhang Sangui is Chinese New Year's Eve years old today, and she scolded him for being a short-lived ghost.

When she is dissatisfied, she talks about her man like this, which has become a mantra, and she can't remember it after being persuaded by her parents a few times.

When Zhang Sangui came back, she had already finished eating, packed up the bowl, and was taking the door panel of the rice shop in front of her, the doors of the shop were all grooves made of wooden strips up and down, and the door panels were all small pieces of two palms, not a small piece like the door of the room, of course, the façade of the large shop was made into several whole door panels, and when the door was opened, it was opened directly and there was no need to take it off and take it off, but there was no need for them to have a millet store.

She's going to open the door, and it would be nice if she could get a few businesses.

Seeing Zhang Sangui come back and go to heat the pot again, the meal was brought out again, and while putting it on the table, he asked, "Dad, what's going on?"

Zhang Sangui sat down and picked up the rice bowl and said: "I have found out, this girl was originally a young lady from a wealthy family surnamed Gu who was in the jewelry business in the north of the city, I heard that she had some problems with her head since she was a child, and when she was sick, she secretly ran out alone, and often walked away, this time she was sick again, and her family was looking for it everywhere, saying that if she couldn't find it tomorrow, she would let the city guard search the whole city." ”

The black and thin wife didn't know what the city guard was, she only knew that it was the government anyway, and she was relieved to hear Zhang Sangui find out: "Then we'll send people over in the afternoon?"

Zhang Sangui put down the bowl and said, "I know this." His face was a little tired, but his spirit was very good, and then he remembered something and said: "By the way, the rice shop is not busy opening for business, you go back to your mother's house in the afternoon to see the second baby, and tomorrow you will take him back to Mr. Cao next door to read some books, and see if you can be admitted to the academy in the coming year." ”

The wife's maiden home is in the suburbs, and if she goes back in the afternoon, she can only come back tomorrow, she has always wanted to send the second baby to study, but Zhang Sangui is not allowed to say that the second baby is not the material for reading, so don't waste the money, send the second baby to the suburbs to his uncle's house to learn the craft of woodwork, but he agreed today.

The couple only had one child, and when they thought that they could finally be by their side with their son, and the husband promised to send him to Mr. Cao to study, the wife agreed with some joy. With a smile on his face, he went back to the house to pack his things. When she passed by the girl in yellow's house, she was a little uneasy, but she didn't think much about it when she thought that Zhang Sangui was going to send her away this afternoon.

When she cleaned up, Zhang Sangui had already put down the dishes and chopsticks, and was settling the accounts with this month's account book, she didn't read it, she didn't know it when she saw it since she was a child, and asked with a smile: "Dad, how much did the rice shop earn this month?"

"Haven't figured it out yet. Zhang Sangui replied without replying.

"Why haven't you finished your meal?" she asked, seeing that there was still a lot of food left in the bowl on the table.

"I was hungry when I was out to inquire about the news, so I ate a bowl of noodles outside, oops, you go and come back quickly, I'll clean up the bowl." Zhang Sangui was a little impatient.

Seeing that her husband was impatient, the wife hurriedly said yes and walked out the door.

"By the way, you will buy new clothes on the way back to the young lady, don't let people say that we may appreciate more if they are happy", when one foot stepped out of the threshold, the wife turned around and said, thinking of returning to her parents' house today, she specially wore a new red dress, which looked a little festive.

"I know, I know", Zhang Sangui waved his hand without raising his head.

It's a good day with the sun outside today. The wife looked at the sunny weather and was in a better mood, humming the song she had learned in the countryside all the way to the city gate.

The red clothes on his body were blood-red in the sun, like a jumping flame and like surging blood.
