Following this line of thought, it is as if the web woven by time and the characters has been pulled up by a thread, and with it, the whole net has been lifted by Zhou Ang.

All of a sudden, many thoughts flashed through his mind.

Do what you think!

After about a cup of tea, Zhou Ang then stood up, straightened the clothes on his body, turned his head and caught a glimpse of the blue cloth headscarf on a stack of thread-bound books, took it and patted it, took the strap, imitated the practice in his memory, and brought the headscarf himself - in this world, this is called formal wear.

Men are twenty and crowned, crowned even as adults, but the reader pays attention to a hair tie and reads - before the age of seven or eight, a small tie is done, that is called the total horn, but at the age of seven or eight, to start reading, go out to see the world, you have to solemnly tie up your hair, it is called "bundle hair".

If you wrap a headscarf in your bun, it will be more exquisite, just like in modern society, a twelve or thirteen-year-old classmate gets a small suit to wear, it looks very solemn, and it is no problem to participate in a ceremony or something.

Zhou Ang lost his father when he was young, but he did not delay in binding his hair and studying, although he has not been crowned until now, only a name, no words, that is, he has not become an adult in the legal sense, but the rules are not dead, take a headscarf and go out, wherever he goes, everyone will treat him as an adult.

It is said that when I go to my uncle's house, wearing a headscarf seems too formal, but Zhou Ang feels that this step is necessary - the closer the person, the more necessary it is for me to tell everyone through some details that I am no longer the Zhou Ang of the past, I am making changes!

Because the Zhou Ang in the past was too nerdy!

............

After cleaning himself up, Zhou Ang deliberately ran to the water tank in the yard and looked down, thinking that it was okay, so he took the door with him, and there was no lock, and he walked on the street.

The Tang Dynasty implements the Li Fang system, it is said that the national capital Chang'an has one hundred and twenty-eight squares, and Lingzhou is naturally incomparable, but the scale of thirty-six squares is not small in the forty-one counties.

The Zhou family moved once, and the big house that Zhou Ang's father bought before his death was in Jing'anfang, where the people lived were not ordinary people, and the Zhou family's house at that time was small there, and there were also four before and after, and the family had begun to be equipped with more than ten servants, but Zhou Ang's father was on the sickbed before he died, and he sold the house!

I've only lived for a year, and I'll sell it when I say it's sold!

It is said that a large sum of money was sold, but where the money went, Zhou Ang never knows.

Later, as soon as Zhou Ang's father died, his mother Zhou Cai dismissed all the servants and slaves in the family, and moved to the dilapidated mansion where he lives now with a son and a daughter - it is said that this is the ancestral home of the Zhou family.

The name here is very atmospheric, it is called Long Live Fang, but it is lived by poor families like the Zhou family.

Lu Chunsheng, father and son, worked for people in Baoguo Temple, responsible for killing pigs, and their family was already well-off. The level of poverty in this Banzai Fang can be imagined.

Zhou Ang's uncle's family does not live in Banzai Fang.

In the early years, Zhou Ang's father was so arrogant that he dared to buy a mansion in Jing'an Fang, and Zhou Ang's uncle also followed suit, and their family bought a small house in Jingshanfang in the northeast of the city.

The straight-line distance between the two squares feels like only one or two kilometers, but you have to go through the square door to get in and out, and the distance is suddenly far away.

Zhou Ang followed the route in his memory, hurrying over, while looking at the scenery on both sides of the street with a little curiosity.

The time was in a hurry, otherwise Zhou Ang would not have to go out now.

Today is the seventh day of the fourth month, and it is the day of rest for all government offices, yamen, schools, private schools, etc.

In other words, everyone is not going to work today.

Uncle and eldest brother, nine times out of ten, are at home.

And sure enough, when Zhou Ang arrived at the uncle's house, he slapped the door and went straight in, and the uncle and brother were washing their hair.

Zhou Ang's uncle Zhou Anxian had already washed it, and was sitting in the sun with his hair scattered, combing his hair and waiting to dry, and his uncle Zhou Ye was washing - Zhou Ang directly pushed the door and entered, which was rude, but the people in the courtyard didn't feel anything when they saw him. Because it's not an outsider.

Zhou Ang said hello when he entered the courtyard, "I've seen my uncle and aunt, my eldest brother is fine, and my sister-in-law is good!"

"Yes, yes!" everyone responded.

Zhou Ye's children were also greeted by their grandmother at this time, and when they called someone, they all greeted their uncle in style, Zhou Ang responded with a smile, and suddenly remembered how much he should bring some snacks or something.

At this time, his uncle Zhou An asked him, "Why are you here?"

Zhou Ang said: "I have something to do with my eldest brother. ”

So Zhou An didn't ask in detail, but said, "Are your mother and sister okay?"

Zhou Ang replied: "It's all good." Recently, I have been busy, and my mother asked me to greet my uncle and aunt on her behalf. ”

Zhou An nodded with satisfaction, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Your mother is a good and strong person. ”

Xu felt that he shouldn't have made any more comments on his mother in front of his son, so he turned around again and asked, "How are you studying lately?"

Zhou Ang smiled and said, "I'm making a few new articles, and I'll definitely bring them over another day and ask my uncle to correct them." ”

Zhou An nodded with a smile, touched his sheep's horn beard, and said: "That's how it should be, reading should be new every day, and it should be new every day, and writing should be done every day. ”

Zhou Ang smiled and agreed.

After a while, Zhou Ang and his aunt were gossiping, and Zhou Ye finally finished washing, but then Zhou An stood up and said, "You guys talk, I'll go read a book for a while." ”

He also advised, "Since you have come, stay and eat at noon." ”

Zhou Ang didn't agree, only smiled and said: "I'm going back after talking to my eldest brother, there are still some things at home, come over another day to greet my uncle and aunt, and then drink with you." ”

So Zhou An waved his hand and left.

His house is two in front and back, Zhou Ye and his family live in the front yard, a maid, a servant, and two male servants all live in the front yard, and Zhou An and his wife live in the backyard with their grandchildren and a maid.

As soon as Zhou An left, Zhou Ye wiped his hair, pulled Zhou Ang to the entrance of the hall and sat down, basking in the sun, looking very casual, and asked: "Brother Ang said that there is something to do with me, what is the matter?"

Zhou Ang said: "A few days ago, I had a minor illness......

"Huh?" Zhou Ye was a little surprised, "When did it happen?" Why didn't you come and tell me?"

Zhou Ang smiled: "Minor illness, it's already cured!"

Zhou Ye looked at him seriously at this time, frowned, and said: "The face is indeed a little bad, you go back and continue to recuperate for a few days, it is best to go to see the doctor, don't always hold on to yourself!"

Although he could sense the sincerity of this concern, Zhou Ang just smiled and didn't answer.

After a pause, he continued: "After being sick for a few days, I thought about it carefully, and felt that I was also old, but I only knew how to read every day, and it was really inappropriate for my mother and sister to work so hard every day. I just thought, my eldest brother walks in the county government every day, and he knows a lot of people, can he help me inquire about what is suitable for me to do, and I want to do something. ”

He and his party said, Zhou Ye and his party looked at him in surprise, in his impression, his younger brother was not a person who could speak well. Today was a bit of a surprise.

After he finished speaking, Zhou Ye thought for a while and asked, "But the money for medical treatment has been spent?" If you are short of money, you just have to talk, you don't have to do this. ”

Zhou Ang smiled, "No, I just want to do something." ”

Zhou Ye frowned a little and asked, "Are you still reading that book?"

Zhou Ang said: "I was about to say that it would be best if I could not be too busy so that I could have some time to read every day." ”

Hearing this, Zhou Ye probably understood.

After thinking for a moment, he said, "It's a good thing that you're willing to find something to do and share some for your uncle." But reading is reading, and reading is not easy, where can you achieve it half-heartedly?"

Speaking of this, he looked like the eldest brother is the father, and patiently arranged: "Don't worry, just study hard, even if you don't have a chance to get ahead, I will definitely find a way to arrange a future for you...... At the very least, the way you can go to school and teach can always be done. ”

Zhou Ang smiled when he heard this, but he still said, "I just want to find a job." ”

Zhou Ye was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and looked at him seriously.

In his cognition, his younger brother has always been a stuffy gourd, he reads well, and he writes especially well, but he is not an assertive and capable person. is because he has felt since he was a child that although his uncle was indeed a special talent in his father's generation, but in his own generation, it was just the opposite, and his brother's personality endowment was quite similar to his father, but he was more like his uncle.

It is precisely because of this understanding that in his heart, he has already taken into account the future affairs of his uncle and younger brother - just like his uncle arranged for his father, his plan is that if he fails to study in the future, he can let this brother go to the school to teach. Even if he doesn't have much knowledge, it's always okay to enlighten his children.

Who would have thought that his younger brother didn't seem to be as peaceful as he imagined.

At this time, he felt a little unhappy in his heart, feeling that something had gone wrong, frowning slightly, and was about to speak, but suddenly he looked up and caught a glimpse of Zhou Ang's headscarf.

He was stunned for a moment.

At this time, looking at his brother again, his eyes subconsciously became much more serious, and then he realized that although he had a smile on his face, there seemed to be an indescribable persistence and firmness in that smile.

After a pause, many thoughts flashed in his heart, and finally said: "I didn't pay attention to this matter before, I will rest today, not to mention, when I return to the yamen tomorrow to inquire, tomorrow evening, there will be news with you!"

When Zhou Ang heard this, he got up with a smile and said, "Then I'll wait for the news of the eldest brother." ”
