Chapter 249 Go to Zhangji Town (Ask for a subscription and ask for a monthly pass)
Tilt Yan nodded, "I hope so." ”
After speaking, he turned around and was about to leave, but he stopped thinking of something, turned around and said, "If you want to rise to the top in the future, you must have justice in your heart, know where righteousness is, and do not fall into power or ignore its interests."
Even if it is only an insignificant little common man who is helped, it is righteousness. Only by doing this can you go the long way.
People have selfish intentions, it depends on where you use them, you don't necessarily have to be dedicated to the people, but at least do it harmless to the people, otherwise sooner or later you will reap the consequences.
Your brother, the village chief, has selfish intentions and wants to help his father-in-law, if the money is really owed by others, there is nothing wrong with him helping his father-in-law get it back.
But if it is to harm innocent people, it is a big mistake.
I don't say that there are gods with three feet on the head, but you can't do this kind of thing, if it is used in officialdom, sooner or later someone will kill you with a handle, and you will definitely not go far. ”
Liang Yuhe listened carefully and was teachable.
He wasn't vain, he really felt that the other party's words were nudging him, so he really listened to it.
He gave a deep sigh to Qian Yan, "Thank you girl Jin Yu for her kind words, the student has been taught." ”
Qian Yan looked at him, nodded with satisfaction, just listen to it, this is a smart person, if he really has a chance in the future, he should also control himself.
What she just said was actually a sentence from the ancestral motto of the Xue Minghua family, and it was written in the main hall of their house, and she felt that this was very meaningful, so she remembered it.
The Xue family is a family in Hedong, and it has been in the officialdom for so many generations, and Xue Juzheng has gone through several generations of courts, and the ancestral training in this family should be indispensable, which is the inheritance that the family values most.
Qian Yan waved his hand at him and left directly, and before returning to the carriage, he glanced at the courtyard of Zhang Chunhua's house with his divine sense.
I want to see if there is anything to take away for them, but the inside can be described as the four walls of the house, even the table is three-legged, except for a few broken wooden boxes and broken quilts and rotten clothes, there is no need to take them away at all.
Then I asked Chouchou, did the uncle take away Zhang Chunhua's things.
Ugly: "No, Zhang Chunhua's family is a poor jingle ring, haven't you also seen the uncle's family, it's a little better than her family, if it weren't for her daughter marrying a good family, it is estimated that she wouldn't be able to get out the five taels of silver."
That family is lazy to do, and they are calculating, a family of ten people and ten hearts, this silver is already their family fund, I saw it, there are only a few hundred copper plates left. ”
Qian Yan pouted in some disappointment, "Okay, but you can't just give that lady silver, they don't even have clothes, and the child's two sets are all smelly of sheep dung and broken, I've already thrown it away, can't I just be so naked, right?" ”
Ugly: "There are clothes and cloth in the space, you can give them two bodies first, and then buy them when you get to the town." ”
Tilt Yan: "I'm taller than their mothers, and they can't wear them." ”
Ugly: "You only give them two shirts and short jackets, and the two little beans are less than one meter long, just enough to cover their ankles." ”
Zhang Chunhua's two children, one six years old and one four-year-old, should be caused by malnutrition, they are all thin and small, looking like two or three years old in later generations.
Tilt Yan found a hidden place, entered the space with Chou, and looked in the cabinet.
Since she hit the cabinet, her clothes have been placed in it, and it is easier to find them one by one.
She found two sets of relatively thin cotton clothes separated from the top and bottom, pants and skirts for Zhang Chunhua to wear, and then gave her a single cotton jacket.
These sets were bought by herself before, they were all muslin, and the color was not eye-catching, they were all yellow and dark gray.
Later, Xue Huan'er sent and bought the materials together, which were so good, she didn't usually prepare to wear them, and the clothes were not served by special subordinates, so it was very difficult to organize and clean.
Out of the space, let the ugly ugly put the clothes directly into the big basket behind the carriage, she can't just carry it back, then it's not easy to explain.
Before she could get back to the carriage, she saw a little head poking her head out of the curtain, and she smiled and beckoned to her.
is Zhang Chunhua's second daughter, and it seems that she should have eased up.
A four-year-old child is already very active, but he can't stay in the carriage and borrows his head out to play.
Seeing Qian Yan waving to her, she also stretched out her hand, but she forgot that she was not wearing a top, and as soon as she stretched it out, she shrank back in the cold.
Qian Yan was amused by her appearance and laughed out loud.
Zhang Chunhua heard the laughter outside, and also leaned out, and dragged her little daughter in by the way.
Seeing that the benefactor had returned, he hurriedly got out of the car.
Qian Yan hurriedly stopped, "Don't come out with thin clothes on your body, it's cold outside." ”
Saying that, he sped up, and then got into the carriage directly, and before she could speak, Zhang Chunhua looked at her, and saw that she was not injured, and her face was not abnormal, so she said: "I just heard Daman tell me that you broke into the village chief's house directly before and brought them out, and you did it, are you injured?" ”
Qian Yan smiled and said, "No, I have kung fu, and it's not a problem to deal with a few big men." ”
Then he took out the purse and handed it to Zhang Chunhua, "Ah, this is the money given by the uncle of the Qi family for him to buy your yard, a total of five taels, you take it, and when you get to Zhangji Town, you see whether to settle there or go back to your mother's village to build a cave."
Zhang Chunhua pinched the plain purse in her hand, and felt grateful again, but when she saw Qian Yan's disapproving expression, she swallowed back the words of thanks in her mouth, for fear of upsetting her.
Without waiting for her to say anything else, she jumped out of the carriage again and went to the back of the car, taking out the clothes that the ugly ugly had made from the big basket.
Fortunately, it put the clothes in advance, and now it happens to be cold to the touch, if you take it out of the space directly, the clothes will be warm, and the ugly space is at room temperature, which is a bit abnormal in this weather.
Qian Yan got into the carriage again with a burden, put it down and opened it, and took out a piece of clothing on it and stuffed it to Zhang Chunhua.
Even if you get to the town, it's too late to make cotton clothes, and I don't know if there is a ready-to-wear shop over there, but fortunately I have a lot of clothes, and I can't wear these few pieces, so I'll wear them for you.
The two of them should wear the top of this dress just right, and when you settle down and make a fit for them, this can also be kept for you to wear, the two of us are about the same height, you should be able to wear it. ”
If Zhang Chunhua stood up straight, she should be not much different from her, and the people in the northwest are not short.
But I don't know if it's cold, or if she works all year round, Zhang Chunhua is a little rickety, so she looks half a head shorter than her.
Fortunately, she is not fat, her figure is very slender, and her current clothes are all loose, not particularly fitted, and she can definitely wear them.
Zhang Chunhua just wanted to excuse herself, but Qian Yan raised her hand to stop her, directly picked up a shorter one, pulled Xiao Man, who was sitting next to her just now, out of the quilt, and put it on her body.
Qian Yan also has no experience with children, so the cold clothes brought in from the outside are directly worn on the children.
It was so cold that Xiao Man hissed and shivered vigorously.
She hurriedly took off her clothes again, and roasted them by the charcoal stove before putting them on for her again.
The clothes were already worn on the child, and Zhang Chunhua was not easy to refuse, so she also learned to roast the clothes in her hand by the charcoal stove and wear them on Daman's body.
When she finished dressing the child, Qian Yan handed her another set, "This is for you, you can put it on directly." ”
When Zhang Chunhua took over the clothes, she felt a weight beside her, and when she looked down, it turned out that Xiao Man was next to her with a smile on her teeth.
Then I found that Qian was also next to her, and when Xiaoman probed out just now, Qian should have snuggled up with her, and sure enough, children couldn't resist the furry.
Seeing that Qian Yan looked at it, he climbed onto her lap and looked at her with his head tilted back and looked at her with a flattering face.
Qian Yan reached out and rubbed its head, and praised, "We are really rich and good, and we know how to play with the young lady." ”
Da Man is a little older, and he already knows the stinky beauty, and he is very happy to put on new clothes and twist there to admire herself, even if the sleeves are rolled up several layers to expose her little hands.
also said directly to Qian Yan: "Thank you, auntie!" ”
Tilt Yan beckoned to her, and she ran over with some twists.
Xiaoman sensibly moved to the side to make room for his sister.
When Da Man also sat beside her, Qian Yan gently patted her shoulder and said, "You're welcome, Da Man and Xiao Man are so sensible and painful, and Aunt Xiao likes you very much." ”
The two little girls felt the kindness of Qian Yan, and they both smiled a little shyly.
She hugged the two little girls and looked up to Zhang Chunhua, who was already dressed, and said, "Do you have any other people in the village who get along well to say goodbye?" If not, let's leave directly, and we should be able to reach Zhangji Town before dark. ”
Zhang Chunhua shook her head, "No, let's just leave." ”
In fact, she still said that the little sisters who came before were all the little daughters-in-law of the neighbors, and it was from the news of her man's death that after she became a widow, it was inconvenient to go to other people's houses, and it was not easy for others to come to play with her.
After all, she has to serve her in-laws who are overly sick with sadness, take care of the children, do housework, do farm work, and have no time to chat with people, so she slowly becomes estranged.
As soon as her in-laws died, there were rumors that she was dead, saying that she not only killed her husband, but also killed her in-laws.
Immediately afterwards, the clan uncle said that her in-laws owed money, and he was afraid that she would have to pay back the money if she remarried with her children.
At first, I wanted her to go to her mother's house to borrow money to repay the money here, but she refused, and she was a little suspicious of the authenticity of the loan, and the two sides of the bickering for a month or two, until a few days ago, the clan uncle moved out of the clan elder and the village chief, which drove her mother out, and wanted to use the yard to pay off the debt.
Later, she said that the yard was too dilapidated and not enough to pay off her debts, and forcibly took away her two daughters.
During this period, she didn't go to the two neighbors' houses for help, not to mention anything else, at least she could be given a place to stay, the firewood house and the sheepfold were fine, such a cold day, especially the day before yesterday when it snowed, she was living on the streets, maybe she had frozen to death before she could save her daughter.
But even if she begged and cried outside, and no one came out to talk to her, she knew what people meant.
In the end, I found a leeward corner, and I carried it over for two days by relying on the branches I picked up.
Fortunately, she was preparing to cook when she was kicked out of the door, and put the fire sickle in her arms, otherwise she would have really frozen to death on the snowy night before yesterday.
Now that the two daughters are back with them, there is nothing left to be nostalgic for in this village.
Since this is the case, she won't say much, let the two children go to their mother's side to do a good job, and then fix the carbon stove, let Zhang Chunhua pay attention, they were all rich and ugly before, but now that there are people in the car, they don't behave too badly.
Tilt Yan fastened her cloak, put on her hood, and sat down in the front.
She didn't have to sit on the wheels of the cart like anyone else had to ride, with her legs dangling underneath, so close to the horse that she could control it.
She just had to sit in the front, or even put her body in a shed and show her head outside.
He flicked the reins and let the bear turn out of the alley and go to the official road.
It's still noon, and the temperature is much warmer than at night, plus she's wearing a lot, so it doesn't feel particularly cold outside.
But Zhang Chunhua was very reluctant to go, but she couldn't catch the car, and she couldn't replace Tilt Yan.
Seeing that she was a little cramped, she also guessed what she was thinking, so she talked to them from time to time.
If you have money, you will roll over from time to time, Zhang Chunhua is afraid that it will hit the charcoal stove and keep staring at it, so she gradually forgot about this stubble and relaxed.
The rich and meritorious ran over to rub her, and Qian Yan patted it appreciatively.
It is said that you can get to Zhangji Town before dark, but in fact, the road is not very far, and it is not dark at all.
This section of the official road is quite flat, there are no mountain roads and no undulating slopes, except that there is some snow on the ground, some slippery and not easy to walk, there are no obstacles, so it will arrive in less than two hours.
When I saw the boundary monument of Zhangji Town, it was more than five o'clock in the afternoon and less than six o'clock, which is in the northwest, that is, the time in the afternoon, after all, it was not until eight or nine o'clock in the morning.
After passing the boundary monument that said Zhang Jizhen, Qian Yan asked Zhang Chunhua to sit outside to guide the way, anyway, she had already changed her clothes, and she was not afraid of the cold when she sat outside.
As for her tattered clothes, she didn't bother to throw them away, and put them away again.
Zhang Chunhua said a little embarrassed: "I've been to this town before, but it was all when I was a child, and I don't know much about the roads here." ”
Her mother's family belongs to a village below this market town, and there is a fork in the official road before, so turn right, and there is still a little distance from the town.
After getting married, she went back to her parents' house once a year during the Chinese New Year, and she went directly back to the village, and she didn't know where the carpenter shop where her brother worked.
Fortunately, she had heard from her brother that there was only one carpenter shop in the town, and it should not be difficult to find.
Tilt Yan nodded and drove the car directly into the main street of the town. (End of chapter)
