Chapter 13: Two Roots
hugged into the yard, Zhao Jingyang taught Erniu to pull out the buckteeth. The boy had rested for two or three days, and by this time his injuries had healed, and he could barely walk with his feet crossed.
Feng Shizhen entered the courtyard, and the first thing he saw was the pond and the fish tumbling in it.
couldn't help but look at Zhao Jingyang: "Mr. Zhao, this is..."
Zhao Jingyang smiled heartily: "Ask for the business of life." ”
Feng Shizhen understood. She looked at the fish in the pond and completely erased the last trace of Zhao Jingyang's impression of 'a child's head has lost his conscience'.
Curious, he said, "Mr. Zhao, is this going to be a fresh business?" ”
Zhao Jingyang said: "If you don't do it, you can't do it, there are so many bastard boys, if you don't find a way to make more money, I can't support them." ”
"That's good." Feng Shizhen said from the bottom of his heart.
Doing a proper business is thousands of times better than forcing street children to steal, beg, and do hard labor.
She thought to herself: This is a change from evil to righteousness.
Erniu pulled his buckteeth out, and a group of hairy boys hugged and squeezed, looking at Zhao Jingyang and Feng Shizhen, giggling and muttering.
Zhao Jingyang said: "Shut up Lao Tzu." ”
Immediately, the crows were silent.
Zhao Jingyang said: "Lao Tzu repeatedly, this beautiful sister next to me will be your teacher in the future." Whatever Teacher Feng asks you to do, you must do it for me; If you don't do it well, Lao Tzu will break his legs! ”
"Did you hear that?!"
"I heard you!"
Zhao Jingyang nodded: "One by one, they all came out to introduce themselves and let Teacher Feng get to know them." ”
Boys, look at me, I'll look at you, leprosy stood up: "Hello Mr. Feng, my name is leprosy." ”
The leprosy began, and the back stood up one by one and signed up one after another.
"My name is Erniu."
"My name is Sanmao."
"My name is Dog."
...... Every time he signed up, Feng Shizhen said 'yes' cordially.
Zhao Jingyang said: "Leprosy." ”
"Master Jing, I'm here."
Zhao Jingyang said: "At two o'clock at noon every day in the future, you will take a few boys to Laoliang Pharmacy to pick up Teacher Feng; After class in the afternoon, send Teacher Feng back, do you hear? ”
"Got it!"
Zhao Jingyang said to Feng Shizhen at this time: "I have a half-day class every day, the time is in the afternoon, Shizhen, no problem, right?" ”
Feng Shizhen was puzzled: "Why is it only half a day?" ”
Zhao Jingyang smiled and pointed to the fish pond: "You have to do the work." ”
Feng Shizhen's tone was stunned, and he sighed in his heart.
"Okay." She said, "But you don't have to pick up and drop, they..."
Zhao Jingyang waved his hand to interrupt her: "The area around the railway station, especially the slums, is the most chaotic; You are a girl, it is inconvenient to come and go, what should you do if you meet a bad person? ”
And he said, "I will pick you up myself when I have time." ”
Feng Shizhen opened his mouth, unable to refuse.
"Alright." Zhao Jingyang stretched his waist, and Danfeng, who always seemed to be squinting slightly, looked at Feng Shizhen and said, "I've just started here, it's not convenient for anything, so I won't leave you to eat today." Tomorrow morning, I will find my old mother to cook a special meal, and I will invite you to eat well. ”
He said, "I'll send you." ”
After speaking, he paused, and smiled: "Wait first." ”
When I turned around and went into the inner courtyard, I saw that the woman in the house had moved a chair and came out, and was sitting by the door, facing the sky, with a calm expression and squinting eyes, as if she was basking in the sun.
Zhao Jingyang said: "It's good to come out and see the light." ”
So he went into the house and took out two small yellow croakers. The woman asked him, "Who is from outside?" ”
Zhao Jingyang didn't look back: "The teacher for the boys." ”
came out, Zhao Jingyang nodded with Feng Shizhen: "Let's go." ”
Then he said to the boys: "Don't forget what Lao Tzu told me yesterday, I will come back later and tell me one by one." ”
went out with Feng Shizhen, and when he arrived at the grove, he took out the two small yellow croakers from his pocket and handed them to her: "Shizhen, your salary this month." ”
Feng Shizhen looked at it, two small yellow croakers, and didn't pick it up: "It's too much, Mr. Zhao." ”
One small yellow croaker is worth forty pieces of ocean, and two pieces are eighty pieces; Earlier, fifty yuan was promised in the pharmacy, thirty more.
Zhao Jingyang smiled heartily and stuffed the little yellow croaker into her hand: "If you call it, you can take it, and the more will be counted until next month; I don't have any change, that's all. ”
Feng Shizhen looked at Zhao Jingyang and pursed his lips: "Thank you, Mr. Zhao." ”
sent Feng Shizhen all the way to the street corner of Lao Liang Pharmacy, Zhao Jingyang said: "Every day at two o'clock at noon, leprosy comes here to pick you up, I will come when I have time, don't forget." ”
After speaking, he waved his hand, turned around and left.
Feng Shizhen watched Zhao Jingyang's back disappear into the corner of the street before retracting his gaze; She smiled heartily, took a step, and walked towards Lao Liang's pharmacy.
When he arrived at Lao Liang's pharmacy, Lao Liang saw that Feng Shizhen was back, and couldn't help but hurriedly ask, "Miss Feng, is there anything wrong?" ”
Feng Shizhen shook his head with a smile, and gently placed the two small yellow croakers on the counter: "Mr. Liang, thank you." ”
Lao Liang looked at it and understood, and the stone in his heart fell: "It looks fine." ”
Feng Shizhen smiled: "I think Mr. Zhao is very good." ”
Lao Liang hesitated for a moment and shook his head: "After all, it's a child..."
Feng Shizhen said: "Mr. Liang, you haven't been to his place to see - those children's smiles are definitely not what you say. I think Mr. Zhao asked me to teach those children out of sincerity. ”
After a pause, he said, "Mr. Zhao is not a bad person, I have talked to him a lot, and I think most people may not be as good as him." ”
Lao Liang was surprised: "Could it be that you have really changed your evil ways and returned to the right?" ”
Feng Shizhen smiled: "Maybe." ”
...
"Leprosy, you speak first." Zhao Jingyang took a golden knife, his eyes were slit, he looked at the boys in front of him, and said, "You are the captain of the field team, have you seen the eighteen restaurants and restaurants I mentioned yesterday?" ”
The leprosy was stunned for a moment and shook his head: "No." ”
Zhao Jingyang's eyes widened: "Because I didn't ask you to go?" ”
The leprosy neck shrank: "Hmm." ”
"Damn!" Zhao Jingyang scolded: "You kid won't think differently? Today is the second day, and in three days, you have to deliver to people every morning, don't step on the plate first, you send a yarn! ”
The leprosy snorted and bowed his head.
Zhao Jingyang said: "Today, Lao Tzu has added ten more transactions, a total of twenty-eight places; If you kid don't figure it out, you will make a mistake in the future, see if Lao Tzu doesn't break your legs! ”
Then he asked Erniu: "What about you?" ”
Erniu said: "I got up at noon and had dinner, I took the dogs and them to the wooden barrel bamboo basket shop, brought back the seven back baskets that were made, and told the boss about asking for a big wooden barrel; On the way back, I told him the old deserted cart and his mule in the slum ahead, but he asked for thirty-five oceans. ”
Zhao Jingyang showed a happy look, stroked his palms and said, "Look at what the second cow does?" Leprosy, you kid has to learn! ”
Leprosy puffed up his chest: "Jing Ye, look at it, I won't let you down in the future!" ”
Zhao Jingyang nodded: "That's the best." ”
looked at Sanmao again: "What about you kid?" ”
Sanmao's chin raised: "As long as Jing Ye speaks, I will bring someone over tomorrow." He leaned up, as if to say some secret: "More than thirty!" More than thirty! ”
The look of 'come and praise me' is simply beyond words.
Zhao Jingyang laughed, slapped Sanmao, and the kid who took the shot stumbled: "Okay, Sanmao is also good!" ”
The three hairs on Sanmao's head were almost cocked.
