Chapter 14 is to follow you
It is said that Zhao Chen met the foot trainer again in the county hall and took over the case in Jian Yong's hands.
The nursing home was originally arrogant, but now when he saw that his master Wang Fugui was beaten with ten boards, he didn't say anything, and he wilted in an instant.
A typical dog fights human potential, Zhao Chen is most unaccustomed to this kind of person!
Zhao Chen saw that the two were no longer clamoring, so he asked, "I already know the matter from Lord Jian's mouth." Wang Fugui, according to your contract, how many taels of silver does the foot trainer mother and daughter need to give you? ”
Wang Fugui stretched out his fingers tremblingly and made a "two" posture, which means two two.
At this moment, he no longer dared to despise Zhao Chen, although he didn't know the origin of the young man in front of him, but judging from the attitude of Jian Yong and the people around him, he must be a high-ranking person.
Zhao Chen frowned.
He didn't expect that human life could be so worthless, and he wanted to buy a young woman's life for just two taels of silver, ridiculous, sad!
Afterwards, Zhao Chen picked up the pen, wrote down several agreements on paper, signed his name, and then handed it to Wang Fugui.
"The matter of two taels is settled, and I will give you ten taels. If it's okay, sign it. ”
Wang Fugui didn't dare not sign it, besides, the original two taels could become ten taels, where to find such a high investment?
He immediately signed his name, and by the way, he noticed Zhao Chen's signature.
"It turns out that he is Zhao Chen, Liu Bei's military advisor. I can't imagine being so young! ”
Wang Fugui was afraid when he thought about it, Zhao Chen never flinched in the face of thousands of troops, if Zhao Chen was unhappy, maybe his head would be lost.
His attitude changed one hundred and eighty degrees, politely handed over the contract to Zhao Chen, and tore up the contract with the mother and daughter of the foot trainer on the spot to show his loyalty.
Zhao Chen nodded with satisfaction, and spread his hands towards Jian Yong, meaning to ask for ten taels of silver.
But where did Jian Yong get so much silver, it was originally a hard and simple march, not to mention the military salary, that is, the military food was thrifty, and where was there more silver for him to spend.
Zhao Chen didn't have any silver himself, but he didn't expect Jian Yong to have no silver either.
Anyway, he has been by Liu Bei's side for so long, why can't he even take out ten taels of silver.
It's embarrassing.
Zhao Chen glanced at Wang Fugui and smiled embarrassedly.
Wang Fugui had already seen that Zhao Chen didn't have silver taels, but he didn't dare to say anything, so he could only watch Zhao Chen.
In today's Huaiyin City, who dares to ask the military advisor directly for money, it is Liu Bei's military advisor, who has twice broken Yuan Shu's army with less than one-tenth of his troops, and no one has the courage to do so.
Besides, for Wang Fugui, just ten taels is not enough to worry about at all, and it is normal to be filial to the military advisor on weekdays.
Wang Fugui smiled and prepared to express his meaning.
Who knew that Zhao Chen didn't want to repay the debt.
He put his hand into his arms, took out a long time, took out the piece of jade with the word "step" written on it, and handed it to Wang Fugui.
"This jade has a warm texture and exquisite carving, definitely more than ten taels. How about I give this to you today without any silver and serve as a covenant between you and me? ”
Wang Fugui glanced at this piece of jade, pinched it twice, and knew in his heart that this jade could not be taken without a few hundred taels of silver.
"It's all up to the military advisor."
Wang Fugui squinted his eyes and happily agreed.
Zhao Chen thought that the matter was successfully resolved, and Wang Fugui was also ready to lead the nursing home away.
Suddenly, the step trainer jumped up from the ground, rushed to Wang Fugui with a strong stride, snatched the piece of jade from his hand, and turned back to her mother.
I saw the foot trainer holding the jade in both hands, his eyes were swaying, and his mouth trembled and said, "Mother, look! ”
The mother was instantly stunned when she saw the jade, and used her hands to protect the hands of the trainer holding the jade, and turned her head to ask Zhao Chen: "Military Master, where did you get this piece of jade?" ”
Zhao Chen realized that this piece of jade had an unusual significance for the mother and daughter of the foot trainer.
The word "step" engraved on this jade may really be the surname of the step trainer.
He stepped forward to help the mother and daughter of the foot trainer who were kneeling on the ground, and explained softly: "This jade was found in the contemptible room early this morning. ”
"The military division's mansion is the small mansion on the edge of the county government? Is it the second room in the East Wing? ”
Zhao Chen was slightly startled and said, "Exactly!" ”
"It was originally the master's house, and it was the little girl's room that the military advisor slept in last night. And this piece of jade was left by the old man to the little girl, but unfortunately he left in a hurry that day, and he couldn't find it when he got up with each other, and he couldn't imagine that it was in the hands of the military advisor today. ”
Zhao Chen was stunned in his heart, and he couldn't imagine that he was really destined for the foot trainer.
It's grown so big, let alone entering a girl's boudoir, I don't even know what it's like to hold a girl's hand. I was able to sleep in the boudoir of a beautiful woman last night, isn't this a step over the primary stage?
As for this piece of jade, Zhao Chen naturally chose to return it to the step trainer.
"Since this jade belongs to your father, the natural thing belongs to its original owner. Originally, this piece of jade also came to save your mother and daughter, and now it is back in your hands, and it is also the reincarnation of heaven. ”
"As for the contract, Wang Fugui, I, Zhao Chen, will make an appointment with you, and before August 20, I will definitely give ten pairs of pairs of hands, and I will never break my word, how about it?"
Wang Fugui smiled awkwardly: "It's okay, it's okay, the military advisor doesn't have to worry about it." I'll quit first. ”
"Walk slowly, don't send it!"
"The military advisor stays." Wang Fugui wiped his sweat and walked out quickly.
When Zhao Chen saw Wang Fugui leaving, he turned to face the mother and daughter of the foot trainer.
Who knew that the two of them knelt in front of Zhao Chen with a plop, kowtowing and thanking: "The military advisor saved our mother and daughter from fire and water twice, and today I found the Bu's jade pendant for the little girl, I am really grateful, although I can't repay it for my death." ”
Zhao Chen hurriedly helped the two of them up, and said, "It's serious, it's serious!" It's all a matter of raising hands, a matter of dividing one's own. ”
But I thought in my heart, why don't you say "There is nothing to repay, only to promise with your body"?
"The matter has been settled, the two of you can go back with peace of mind and plant the fields, General Liu will not treat you badly."
The two nodded, straightened their clothes, but still reluctant to leave.
Zhao Chen was a little strange, everything was settled, why did he stay here.
The foot trainer said: "Strategist, we have no way out, and because there is no money to pay the rent, Wang Fugui has already taken the rented house and land. ”
"This ......" Zhao Chen turned his head to look at Jian Yong, hoping that Jian Yong could arrange a place for the mother and daughter from the resettlement of the displaced people.
Who knew that the mother and daughter asked: "I don't know the military advisor, is there a shortage of manpower in the house?" ”
Zhao Chen hadn't thought about this question at all, and he didn't have the habit of letting servants serve, which was completely inconsistent with the concept of the 21st century.
"Nope!" Zhao Chen shook his head, "I also just arrived in Huaiyin, except for a few guards assigned by the lord, I am alone." ”
The foot trainer hurriedly said: "Although the military master lives in a small house now, there will be a big house in the future." The military advisor is out on the road, and the family needs to be taken care of up and down, although the little girl is not talented, she is still good at this aspect. The family is at ease, and the military advisor can fight with peace of mind when he is outside. ”
The mother of the foot trainer said: "Laundry and repair, cooking and washing dishes, bathing and changing clothes, how can these things be done by the military advisor, we can do it for the military advisor." ”
Zhao Chen thought for a moment, but still felt that something was wrong: "I'm a man, it's not very suitable to stay under the same roof with you all the year round." What's more, in the future, I will definitely fight all year round, from east to west, from south to north, are you not afraid of hardship and danger with me? ”
"Don't be afraid!"
"It's not bitter!"
The step trainer stared at Da Shui Ling's eyes and said firmly, "We just want to follow you!" ”
This is the first time that someone has said that they have to follow him no matter what, and Zhao Chen was a little surprised.
When he looked back, it did make sense, he always needed someone to take care of the housekeeper when he was outside, after all, there were not many servants in anyone's big mansion in this era. Moreover, the surname of the step trainer is step, although looking at the current situation, the connection between the step trainer and the step family in Jiangnan is estimated to be very weak, but this layer of relationship is better than nothing. In the future, when Liu Bei goes south to conquer Yang and merge the two states, he may be able to use it.
Thinking of this, Zhao Chen nodded: "The house where the contemptible people live now is also the home of the two of them, since the two of them don't dislike it, then go home with me." ”
Go home......
Hearing these two words, the grievances of the step trainer for so many years poured out all at once.
She didn't know how long it had been since she had spoken of going home, how long it had been since she had enjoyed the warmth of home.
And the man in front of him obviously wanted to follow him as a servant, but he said that he would go home together.
This friendship, this kindness, the step trainer remembered.
At this time, the step trainer had secretly made up his mind that he would not leave Zhao Chen for half a step in this life and this life.
Zhao Chen couldn't imagine that he would come to see if the county government had anything to deal with, and he brought back two women.
One is a person who falls in love at first sight, and the relationship between the Bu family may be used, and the other may be the future mother-in-law.
This has to be served, Zhao Chen smiled helplessly.
Jian Yong smiled and sent Zhao Chen and the three to the door.
Zhao Chen pulled Jian Yong aside and whispered, "Don't forget the tea!" I bought it for ten taels of silver. ”
Jian Yong smiled: "That's nature. ”
"In addition, today's matter, please keep it secret for me!"
Jian Yong glanced at the mother and daughter of the foot trainer, and said with an evil smile: "Understand, the golden house is hidden, the military master can rest assured, no one else will know." ”
Zhao Chen knew that Jian Yong wanted to be crooked, but he didn't bother to explain, so he took care of himself and led the mother and daughter of the foot trainer back to the house.
