Great Tang Idyll - Chapter 1016
[Chapter 641: The Red Dust Is Difficult to Settle Money and Want to Borrow]
Xiaobei has no idea of returning the child to other women.
Soon, a group of doctors and Jiaping’s maid came over, took the child over, listened with a stethoscope, checked the pulse, and was responsible for changing the package.
Xiaobei and Xiaoyuan also had people surround them with curtains, waiting for the curtains to be removed. Unless their heads were still a little wet, the rest of their bodies had become dry.
Glancing at the woman who stopped crying, but was still sobbing and didn’t dare to resist, Xiao Bei turned her head, thinking of the fishermen who were helping to save people.
They are three very old looking people who are always in the river to make a living. The wind is strong and their skin is not good, so people seem to be older than they really are.
In addition to this person, there were four more people on the boat, five people to be precise, an old man, a young man, and a young woman, plus a little boy similar to Xiaobei. The woman is pregnant with a baby in Zhonghuan and is nursing the child. She is slightly sideways, not too shy of others.
“I haven’t thanked the old man for his help yet. Come here, take a hundred thousand dollars and give it to the old man.” When Xiao Bei spoke, he stepped up and wanted to see what the child who was being nursed looked like, but he couldn’t see it. milk.
The fisherman who rescued the life was nervous at first. Hearing Xiao Bei’s words, his face suddenly changed, his face sank, and he turned his face and spit out two words: “No.” The
other three adults were also ugly, even the one The boy of the same age as Beckham also snorted, indicating that he was angry.
“Don’t, you saved my child, and I also don’t have much money to help your child, so you can add some clothes to your child.” Xiaobei is very talkative, pointing to the child who is being nursed.
Immediately, the maids and male chores from the inner court went to the public relations so that people could accept the money.
The woman who dunked the child in the water quit: “My child.”
“I don’t leave now, it’s mine, your child has drowned, from now on, her surname is Zhang, it’s me Zhang Xiaobei My sister, the Datang Inspector, has become ten people to inspect the Datang area together.”
Xiaobei had no good face towards this woman, pointing to the rescued child.
, “Yes, there will be ten people in the future, the sky will shake the evil spirits, and there will be no ears to listen to all directions.” Xiaoyuan also supported.
The fisherman who rescued the child was refusing to ask for money. Hearing what Xiaobei and Xiaoyuan said, he grabbed the hundred-dollar bill and put it in his arms. Thinking about it, he turned his head and handed it to the woman with the same weathered face, and said: , “Keep it, don’t lose it
,
Xiaobei gave it, and
make it into a purse for the baby to wear close to the body, with more blessings and longevity, no disease and no disaster.”
Cover it and don’t move.
Xiaobei was stunned: “The money is to buy clothes for the children.”
“There are clothes at home.
” The fisherman did not change his original intention.
Xiaobei looked at Xiaoyuan very helplessly, Xiaoyuan was on her body, she had changed clothes, and had no money, so she stretched out her hand to reach it, took out a handful of coins from the pocket of the servant next to her, and handed it over: “Here, put the coins in In the purse, the coins I gave are the same as those given by Xiaobei. It’s a pity that the banknotes have been stored for a short period of time. Let’s go, buy things with the money that Xiaobei gave, wear comfortable clothes, eat healthy, and use them while you’re at your fingertips.”
The fishermen were also polite and took the coin from Xiaoyuan’s hand, and it seemed that the one hundred guan was not going to be returned.
The woman who put the child in the water heard Xiaobei and Xiaoyuan’s words, and she was also honest. She stared blankly at her daughter, who had been re-wrapped in a velvet cloth, and a smile suddenly appeared on her face.
Xiaobei was startled: “Isn’t it crazy? Don’t scare me, I won’t take the blame if you are crazy, it’s the child you threw first, and then I’ll come, sue, tell you, you don’t care. I’m not afraid of you when the lawsuit is brought to Hanyuan Hall, from Dali Temple to the Censor Terrace, no, no one will speak for you.”
Xiaoyuan touched Xiaobei beside him: “Why are you telling her this? Doctor, Go and see, can it be cured?”
“I’m not crazy.” The woman said quickly.
“I know, you are a normal person, don’t move, the doctor will go.” Xiaoyuan followed.
“I’m really not crazy, I’m happy, I can live again, and my child can live again, saying that I gave birth to an evil spirit reincarnation, saying that I can’t go to the water for a calamity, saying that I am a demon, I thought, If the child cannot survive the water disaster, if she dies, I will throw myself into the well when I go back, and if I become a ghost, I will also haunt them.” The
fù person seemed to be talking to himself, and he seemed to explain to Xiao Bei Xiaoyuan, a few words, let the people around him I understand.
The fù people laughed again: “Haha, haha, but my son has passed this calamity, yes, it has passed, and he will be the inspector of the Tang Dynasty in the future, yes, from Dali Temple to the Censor’s Terrace, there is no one. Dare to move, ha, come and go in groups, inspect places, kill corrupt officials, and stun the king.
Xiaobei, I can work, I used to be their maid, I can do anything, you let me be your home My maid, I can sleep for two hours in broad daylight, I can eat all the leftovers, wear burlap clothes, sleep in the woodshed, I can.” As
he spoke, the fù wanted to kneel and kowtow, but was caught by someone. Can’t move.
Xiaobei and Xiaoyuan didn’t say anything. One of the maids didn’t want to, and said to the fù, “How can the master have such treatment? If you swear and don’t swear, who knows if you’re telling the truth?”
Xiaobei nodded .
, but also did not believe what the other party said, and at the same time pondered that this fù person lacked heart and slept for two hours, then did he still have the energy to work when he was not sleeping?
“Hong’er, my Hong’er, is here for my father.” While the scene was deadlocked, a man rushed over from the crowd, running and shouting, tears streaming down his face.
Before he could get close, he was stopped by someone: “Stop, who?”
, “Hong’er, my Hong’er is inside, the one without ears, I am her father, my poor child, let me see, hurt No?” The man had to go inside.
“She’s not your child, she’s reincarnated by an evil spirit, Xiaobei, that’s him. His family said that my daughter and I are ominous.” The fù shouted to the man.
, “I didn’t say it, it’s you, you crazy mother-in-law, I didn’t see it today, you actually want to drown my Hong’er, you have a vicious heart.” The man retorted.
“You’re crazy. As the head of Xu Gang’s palace, you bought me as a maid and then took my body. You didn’t even give me a name. The child will kill her when she is born. You, you dare to be blind. Edit.” The fù shouted loudly, causing others to frown.
Xiaobei looked at this and then at that, and couldn’t tell who was telling the truth and who was lying.
Seeing that the two were still arguing, he said: “Stop, Xu, Zhou, Zhu, Book? Six, Pin, Guan?
Guan, what the officer said should be true, right? Come, Master Master, come here, yes , Come closer, brother, you ask.”
Zhong Bei called him so, naturally, he called his brother Xiaohai Xiaohai and other seven people who did not jump down, and came over, as well as Li Jun and Pan’er.
Xiaohai seems to be stable, and he usually does calculation problems when he is free, but he can always get support when he speaks among the nine children, so when he encounters trouble, Xiaobei always thinks of his brother.
Xiaohai looked at the master book who was standing there, being watched, without making a sound, only looked at it, from top to bottom, from bottom to top, when the master book was trembling, he asked: “For your daughter Hong’er came from home in a hurry, right?”
“Yes, I went home and suddenly found that Hong’er was gone. I heard that the mad woman was carrying her and walking towards the river, so she ran desperately, but it was a pity that she was late. , thanks to a few of you for your help, the sense of inferiority is endless, inferior…”
“What time is it now?” Xiaohai asked without waiting for the other party to continue.
“It’s been three o’clock, almost.” The master replied.
Xiaohai nodded and asked again: “You must be very tired running along the road, right?”
“Tired, ah, no, in fact, the lower official only thinks about Hong’er, and forgets whether he is tired or not, where do you care about that, only now I feel tired and weak.” The master said panting.
“Do you know why we were so lucky today?” Xiaohai asked again.
The clerk shook his head, then nodded again: “It must be my family, Hong’er, who has a great fate and met a noble.”
“Wrong, it was the nine of us. We had the same dream together last night. Guess who we dreamed of? County magistrate Yan, dreaming of what he looked like when he was lying, oh, why are you so kind? Do you know?”
Xiaohai said to the other party as a memoir, his tone was very flat.
“Xiaguan never lied, every word is true.” The master book was obviously unable to stand.
“No one told you to lie. I don’t know something. It’s been three hours since you stayed in the yamen. What are you doing when you go home?” Xiaohai said in a soft voice, but suddenly raised his voice in the end.
The county clerk was frightened and sat down on the ground, hesitatingly said: “I, I am at the yamen, processing, book, book, back, go home, get the materials, yes, the materials are put away, put at home.”
“You Did you put the materials in the yamen at your house? You go back to get them? Then you know what happened and came over? Then your house is near the yamen?” Xiaohai was still asking.
“Yes, yes, near, running, running.” The master replied.
Xiaohai stopped talking to the master this time, but turned around and said to his sister: “Xiao Bei, let’s avoid it, it’s too bloody and can’t stand the torture.”
“Why?” Xiao Bei looked at his face suddenly asked the pale master.
“Because he lied, there is still a lot of green vegetable juice on his official boots, and there are traces of green color on the corners of his mouth. What is the purpose of our stop this time?” Xiaohai asked the question on the master book.
“The purpose? Ah, the purpose is to take the cherry paste that the Beijing sent on board with the ship to Xuzhou for processing, and supplement the green vegetables here in Xuzhou, especially the cabbage stored in winter, make pickles, and sell them when they arrive in Hangzhou, or on the road. There are green vegetables to eat.
My mother wants to eat cucumbers. The cucumbers on the boat have been kept for a long time and are not fresh enough. Because it is not too cold in winter, you can make cucumbers in a simple greenhouse.
There is also the pork, chicken, etc. on our ship, and let the kitchen make mature food. Our family’s craftsmanship is good, and we sell them together in Xuzhou, and buy fresh ones and put them on the ship for storage.
”
Xiao Bei calculated the purpose of the stay with his fingers. After this exchange, not only will he not lose money, but he will supplement all the huaxiao that came all the way. At the beginning, he planned to go all the way to do business.
People watching the excitement around. Listening to the conversation between the two of Xiaobei, many people sighed, as expected of Zhang Xiaobao’s younger brother and sister, they have to make money along the way when they go out, even if they go out in the future, they don’t have to worry about starving to death.
The county clerk was dumbfounded, looked at his official boots, wiped his mouth again, and his hands began to tremble.
Xiaohai took it and said, “Yes, so he, the master, didn’t stay in any yamen at all. He ran to the pier and hid by the side, and he didn’t forget to grab the cucumbers sent by the people to eat.
He might want to Spying on intelligence, or worrying about our purpose, or wanting to find a chance to meet us, but no matter what, it proves that he is lying.
And when he speaks, the place where the fù eyes look is different. Looking at us, the fù people are looking at children. We are so attractive? So scary? If you don’t do
bad things, you
won’t be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door. Why is General Hu Hu not afraid of us?
When the emperor’s uncle stopped me, what would my father’s reaction be?”
“I will be very anxious, even if I can’t get close, I have to keep looking around. If it is my brother and sister, someone who dares to stop will kill someone, I know. There will be another person on Suzaku Street, let’s avoid it.” Xiao Bei pointed at the master bookkeeper and said angrily.
“I’m guilty. I’m guilty and I confess. I want to find a chance to get close to you and get some benefits. The child’s affairs are my housework, so I can’t do this to me.
” Thinking that Xiaohai can be so powerful, there is no need for extra means at all, just look at people, ask a few words, and everything will be clear.
Xiao Bei sneered, put down his hand, and the person who was about to execute the execution came down.
Xiaobei circled the main book twice and said, “I’m not interested in knowing your surname. I don’t care if you have housework or not, we are the inspectors of the Tang Dynasty.” Dai Sheng went to inspect the place, if you lie, you are deceiving the king. The crime of being caught by us, your crime will be added five.
I don’t care if you live or die, and I won’t convict you here. You go back and let the escort officials in this state escort you to the capital, and you can fight against the Ministry of Personnel, Dali Temple, and the Censor Terrace.
”
Leaving these words, Xiao Bei turned around and walked towards the boat, and was about to go back. Xiao Yuan motioned to the maid to bring the fù person and walked back with him.
No one was going to touch the master book again, he was temporarily very 〖 Freedom, Xiaobei doesn’t care if he runs or not, that means let him go to the government office to accept the crime, and then be escorted away. If you have the courage, you can run, and then the sea arrest documents. There
was silence for a while, and there were cheers one after another. , The people really felt the strength of Xiaobei and others, and they also sighed that the girl born without ears had a good life.
, “He is in charge, this money?
The old man on the fishing boat still had his hands on his mouth, clutching the one-hundred-gut piece of money, and asked, “Old, man. The
old man thought about it for a while, and said, “Hua, the money has to be exchanged for another.” Just a big boat, make some clothes, buy monks’ clothes, and give money together when the time comes. You can’t separate the hua, and you can’t separate the hua, and the money you get back is not given by Xiaobei.
“The
son nodded at the same time as his daughter-in-law, fù, who was breastfeeding the child.
Xiaobei returned to the boat, drank a bowl of ginger syrup, and ran to see the child without ears.
The child was nursing in his mother’s arms. Her mood was much more stable, and her eyes became brighter. While feeding the child, she asked the maid to help apply a hot towel to her face, and told the maid that she wanted to eat boiled eggs and pork knuckle soup.
The maid agreed, but the kitchen did it. Four dishes, one soup, the soup is black chicken soup, the dishes are sizzling mutton, sweet and sour cabbage, cucumber golden needle mushroom, tomato scrambled eggs, plus a seasonal fruit plate, but not much.
, “I want to drink pork knuckle soup without salt.” The fù person glanced at the child in his arms, summoned up his courage, and stubbornly proposed what she wanted to eat.
“It’s not popular to drink pork knuckle soup now. What you eat now is the same as what my mother and his little mother eat. They have a baby in their wombs now. The news came back, and my brother and sister specially asked the medical school to cooperate with them. My chefs have a meeting to discuss the food ration, let me see my sister, okay?”
Xiaobei’s voice appeared at the door, and people followed in, wanting to see the rescued child.
When the fù heard that it was specially made for the ladies of Yipin, he was relieved and turned to his side: “Look.”
Xiaobei saw that the other party didn’t hold the child in front of him, so he still fed it, and didn’t force it. People 〖home〗 The baby is eating.
“Looking back, I asked my brother and sister if the lack of two ears would affect the baby, and let them find a way. You live in my house, and when the time comes, I will arrange things for you. We will raise the baby.
You find another person, don’t think about him, I’ve already opened up on the net, he won’t die, the crime of bullying the king or something, the uncle of the emperor will not care, but he doesn’t want to continue to be an official, even his own children are disgusted What kind of parental official will be good to the people?”
Seeing that there is only a hole in the child’s ear, “Xiao Bei is very distressed.
Listening to Xiao Bei’s words, people can only nod their heads, keep their eyes fixed on Xiao Bei, look down at their daughter for a while, feel that She was just as cute. At this time, her daughter was already asleep, and she didn’t even burp her milk.
When the maid took the child over, the fù man was hungry now, looked at Xiao Bei, and said, “I want to eat, so I can’t help first. you do things.
”
I didn’t tell you to do things now. What you need to do now is to take care of your body, feed my sister, eat, there are fish to eat at night, and beef bones, yak, and my share, tomorrow seems to be Venison “Anyway, I eat it for a month, and it’s basically different every day.”
Xiaobei also sat at the table, and someone brought a glass of juice, sucked it with a bamboo straw, and watched the fù eat it.
Fù people know, “Don’t look at that unconscionable man as a master, and his family life is good, but he can’t compare with Xiaobei and the others, only the dishes in front of him, and there are two kinds of dishes that he has never seen before.
Take a bite of the same, and fù people want to Xiao Bei Bay asked, “What is this, and this?
”
This is a tomato. My brother likes to call it a tomato, and my sister likes to call it a tomato. The Si Nong Temple is hurrying to cultivate the seeds. In a few years, all the people of the Tang Dynasty can grow them, and they can cook and eat them as fruits.”
That is the golden needle mushroom. The output is very small. Usually only the five sense organs in Beijing can eat it. My brother and sister said that in terms of nutrition, it is similar to other mushrooms. It can be substituted, but the taste is different.” Just eat it.
There are also peppers.” But it’s hot, but my brother actually asked the people from Sinong Temple to mix peppers and tomatoes together, saying that such peppers would grow, don’t you think it’s fun?
Xiao Bei introduced it like a family treasure, and Xiao Shou Bi drew the appearance of a bell pepper. The
fù
person nodded: “It’s fun and delicious, but many people can’t eat it. Hey, the rich have the life of the rich, and the poor have it.” the life of the poor.
”
That’s not true, my brother said that if you think your life is not easy to change, then let’s change the world. In the past winter, it was cold in the north and you couldn’t eat cucumbers. Now you can. Those who believe in fate are moths. They enjoy what unbelievers make.
”
Xiao Bei’s education made her not accept her fate at all, so she opened her mouth and said she would fight with heaven.
After listening to Xiao Bei’s words, she couldn’t say anything else. She lowered her head and ate fiercely while Xiao Bei held the cup and thought about things.
Maybe the fù person was really hungry, maybe she was afraid of starvation of the child, or maybe the food was so delicious, she ate all the vegetables like a storm, and two bowls of rice, while waiting for the fruit, Xiaobei. Still staring with a shocked look.
“You, you didn’t last?
Eat some sancha pills, and walk slowly on the deck. “Take a shower and rest. My sister is taken care of. I suddenly remembered a very important feeling, and I asked them to discuss it.”
Xiao Bei looked at the fù worriedly, shook his head, got up and left.
The fù people watched Xiao Bei leave, and his stomach said, “It’s delicious. The cook on the boat should be more powerful than the one in Shui Yunjian and Bihai Yinsha?”
…
When Xiaoju came to another room, Xiaoyuan When the ten children are studying, to be precise, Xiaoyuan is reviewing, and he is telling stories to Li Jun and Paner.
“Stop for a while, I’ll discuss something with everyone, I think, is it because I have a lot of children in Datang, who were born in poor health, were thrown away, and there are girls, we have to stop, right? Xiaoyuan. ”
Yes, stop, where to start? Tell the people that you are doing this wrong? I’m afraid they won’t listen. Do you want to dispatch my family’s intelligence organization to go door-to-door?”
Xiaoyuan stopped first and said, he had to stop, Li When Jun and Pan’er saw Xiaobei, they left Xiaoyuan behind, ran to Xiaobei’s side, and listened to Xiaobei’s words with their faces raised.
Others also stop learning things.
“Let’s discuss it together, and we will always come up with a solution. Let me first say, let’s make up stories of ghosts and gods to scare them, saying how to throw the child away.” Xiaobei raised the topic and came up with a solution first.
Others began to devote themselves to thinking of the Lord’s mercy, and until dinner time came, the nine older children and the two younger children finally came up with a routine, and arranged for people to implement it.
, “It’s another sunny day, the birds are chirping, the swallows are flying low, and the water is flowing east, when will you return? Come here, cheers!” In the
early morning, Zhang Xiaobao stood outside the cabin and brushed his teeth, unhygienically toasting The water spit into the river, merged with the river, and flowed eastward.
Wang Juan had already packed up, went around looking for Zhang Xiaobao to eat, and turned to the deck on the left to see him. He was listening to his poems and looked up at the sky. There were dense clouds, no wonder the swallows were flying low.
“Xiaobao, hurry up, waiting for you to eat, sunny sky, is this the infinite stretching of the legendary image? It has the effect of space transposition, which piece of sky did you change?
Don’t linger, look at the sky, it is estimated that a heavy rain can’t run, and it will be a few days in a row, maybe some places will be affected, and you will be busy.
”
As soon as you come, it’s normal to suffer from disasters, as long as the scope is not large. If you really want to say which year, the weather in all parts of the Tang Dynasty was good, I was surprised.”
Zhang Xiaobao spit out the last sip of water and followed Wang Juan into the cabin. All the sails on the boat fell, ready to meet the storm.
When they came to the restaurant, Li Longji and others were there, and they didn’t move their chopsticks at all. Seeing the situation, they were waiting for Zhang Xiaobao.
, “Morning.
Zhang Xiaobao said hello and sat down at his seat.
Li Longji then picked up his chopsticks: “Xiaobao, how do you think I can make me wait for you to eat?”
”
“At noon, I’ll be waiting for you, but I can’t do it.”
“Zhang Xiaobao regretted the act of writing poetry while brushing his teeth.
“That’s not necessary, you help me come up with a good idea, I can wait for you tomorrow.
Li Longji ate it and chatted while eating.
Zhang Xiaobao took a bite of the fried egg and asked, “Which industry is the idea?
”
”
“You think.”
“Li Longji said.
“Okay, industry, how?
Zhang Xiaobao proposed one.
Li Longji nodded with food in his mouth and agreed.
“There are many technologies in industry. Considering the confidentiality of raw materials and technologies, not many can be used in people’s livelihood. Well, I will let them design them. Several kinds of human power may provide power, or animal power and water, wind peeling machine.
The technical content is low. In terms of materials, the shelf can be made of wood. The quality of the steel in the key places is just enough. If the big deal is broken, replace the parts to improve production efficiency. The time saved can be used for other things, even if it is learning to read and write. ?
”
Zhang Xiaobao stopped his chopsticks and came up with an idea. Taking advantage of Li Longji’s consideration, he quickly started eating again. He didn’t want to wait for others to finish eating, and he was still empty stomach.
Li Longji thought about what Zhang Xiaobao said, but he didn’t stop. After a while, he nodded in agreement.
“So, it’s settled.” Zhang Xiaobao breathed a sigh of relief.
“Xiaobao, don’t eat too much, there will be something to eat later.” Li Longji said to Zhang Xiaobao with empty mouth.
, UU reading www.
sonicmtl.com “Okay, I only drink a bowl of soy milk and eat two fried eggs.” Zhang Xiaobao reluctantly agreed, and the meal was finally finished.
Just as he was about to drink some tea, when he was taking a break, the heavy rain outside fell and crashed on the deck, so Li Longji called Zhang Xiaobao out again.
A large umbrella was set up on the deck at the bow, under which was a barbecue rack, and beside it there was a water basin in which shrimps were placed, and two bottles of wine were placed.
When Zhang Xiaobao was sitting opposite, Li Longji poured Zhang Xiaobao wine and said with emotion, “The misty rain is méngméng, the waves are surging, when it’s a good time to chat and drink, of course, I have a lot of worries in my heart, how many people are dripping water? Where? The bridge road is difficult? Xiaobao, what do you think?”
Zhang Xiaobao patted his forehead in distress, knowing that it would be good to let Li Longji go out to play by himself, the house is leaking, the road is muddy, and repairing, do you have to worry about everything?
When he was thinking about how to answer, someone from the inner courtyard of the house came over and said to Zhang Xiaobao, “Little Master, there is news from Datang Qianzhuang, Xiaobei’s little lady, they use the baby candy house and their own toy house, And other decorations as collateral, yù borrowed from Datang Qianzhuang, and Datang Qianzhuang gave it back, saying that they were too young to go through the formalities, do you see?” a.
