Old things in Nancheng

Entering the Tiandi herringbone cell, it is separated from the iron fence, eating, lodging, and working are not together, so when noon comes, these prisoners who are superior in the prison camp go back to their rooms, and they can sleep on the bed after eating. Sleep.

The official circles of the Song Dynasty were idle, and the prison camp was the same, but there was no such treatment over the iron fence. After eating pig food hastily under the sun, they continued to fight iron soldiers.The small prison guards were lazily lying under the shade of the trees, and envied the prisoners in the herringbone cell.

In the Tianzi No. C room, Wang Zimo bought a table of noodles with money, and invited Jiang Shangpei back. The two drank some wine and recalled their hometown together.

This is the advantage of having a fellow villager. When I feel lonely and homesick, chatting with fellow villagers and talking about the mountains and rivers, I feel like a living person. I still have a breath, and I can encourage each other until I return to my hometown. hour.

"Brother Jiang, where are you from Yanguan County?"

"Shoucun."

"Jiang's family in Shoucun?"

"Exactly!"

When Wang Zimo heard the words, he couldn't answer for a while, so he took a deep look at Jiang Shangpei.

The Jiang family in Shou Village is more famous than the Wang family in Wangjiazhuang, the real first-class family in Yanguan County.Generations of Jiang's family have been officials, and the family's property spreads all over Yanguan County, even Lin'an Mansion, Yangzhou Mansion, and Shaoxing Mansion, and there are many business contacts.It's just that the Jiang family's New Year's style is not well-received, and the problem is the eldest grandson of the Jiang family, Jiang Shangpei in front of him.

Jiang Shifang, Jiang Shangpei's father, Jiang Shangpei's father, married a second wife three years ago, who was also the daughter of a wealthy family.The difference between the two is more than 20 years old, so there is no relationship between them, and this young lady is about the same age as the eldest son, Jiang Shangpei.Jiang Shangpei has a refined personality and outstanding literary talent, and is well-known in Yanguan County. For some reason, this young lady fell in love with Jiang Shangpei.

It's a bloody story, the lady is committed, Jiang Shangpei is a good son, he has read sage books since he was a child, and has a good character, so he naturally doesn't want to do that incest with his stepmother.The stepmother failed in commitment, and became angry from shame, and sued Jiang Shangpei for insulting the stepmother.The old man learned that he beat Jiang Shangpei so badly that he almost died. Jiang Shangpei's wife Ma Shi also asked for a divorce because of this incident.If he just followed the family law, then Jiang Shangpei would be fine. Who would have thought that Mrs. Ma would hang himself in shame and indignation after returning to her mother's house, which drove Jiang Shangpei, a scholar, out of blood.

Ma Shi and Jiang Shangpei are childhood sweethearts, and their affection is different from other women. Jiang Shangpei has never taken a concubine for his wife, which shows his sincerity.The pain of losing his wife was so painful that Jiang Shangpei ignored the pain, entered the main room with a sword, stabbed his stepmother with a sword, and then surrendered himself to the crime. The Jiang family's affairs also broke out, and the whole county was in an uproar.

Everyone in Yanguan County has heard of this matter. Jiang Shangpei is kind and righteous, and he is praised by others, which is a pity, but his stepmother is cast aside by everyone.When Jiang Shifang learned what had happened, she felt extremely remorseful, but her son surrendered himself to the murder.

Wang Zimo thought of this past, and couldn't help but sigh. If Jiang Shangpei hadn't suffered such hardships, with his knowledge and character, he would have already entered school and retired from office, and became a parent.

"Brother Jiang..." Wang Zimo choked up a little, this is also a hard-fated person.

"You don't have to be like this, brother. Since you know about this, I want to know, how is my family safe now?" Jiang Shangpei waved his hand and asked.

"After you left, Mr. Jiang asked the clan to return the body of the woman to her natal family in addition to her Jiang surname. I heard that her natal family felt ashamed, so she wrapped it in a straw mat and threw it into a mass grave. I have never heard of other news. I think there is nothing wrong at home." Wang Zimo replied.

No news, but good news, Jiang Peiyuan nodded slightly, raised his head and drank the wine in his glass, how happy that that flamboyant woman ended up like this!

After drinking a glass of wine, Wang Zimo couldn't persuade him. Jiang Shangpei was in relief, drunk, calling Feng's nickname, but he was very similar to Wang Zimo last night.

Wang Zimo helped Jiang Shangpei to settle down on the bed, then found the prisoner to evacuate the table, gave some loose silver, and asked the prisoner for some hangover soup to prepare for Jiang Shangpei, seeing that it was almost time, he tidied up , Go to the accounting room and continue to check the accounts.

Wang Zimo read the account books for the first six months of the first half of the year in one day. Qin Chuan was very happy to see him: "Old Lutou, it seems that our old bones can rest for a while. You are so tender, this skill is really amazing."

Lu Da nodded and said, "Since you're here, we'll go back to the room with the two of us, have a glass of wine, and welcome you into the group."

Join?Why is it such a tone of going up the mountain and falling into the grass, but when Wang Zimo thought of the things in the account book, he couldn't help laughing secretly, isn't it just joining a gang, this is a decapitation.

Lu Dayou and Qin Chuan live in Room B, the account room is a confidential place, and the account manager lives in the same room for safety reasons. Although Lu Dayou is serious, he intends to test Wang Zimo's skills, so he went to the wine table It is also a strong persuasion to drink.Wang Zimo's small amount of alcohol was not enough to watch in this prison camp, and he became dizzy after a few drinks.

"Xiao Er, what do you think of today's account book?" Lu Dayou asked when he saw that the heat was almost ready.

"Grandpa Lu and Uncle Qin's accounts are clean and clear. Every account comes and goes. I admire it." Wang Zimo burped his wine, talking nonsense with drunken eyes.

Lu Dayou and Qin Chuan looked at each other, unable to guess the authenticity of Wang Zimo.If she can't see through the joints, then her skills are too low to be useful. If she can see through, she can adjust and teach her a lot.It's just that Wang Zimo is too young, and Lu Dayou dare not say some things, because he is afraid that Wang Zimo won't be able to keep the secret and withstand the pressure.

He wanted to test a few words, but Wang Zimo softened his body and got under the table.

Lu had no choice but to ask the prisoner to take the drunk Wang Zimo back to his room, and Jiang Shangpei waited for Wang Zimo to fall asleep with his hangover head on his head.

In the dark night, Wang Zimo opened her eyes, only to see that her eyes were clear, and she was not even a little bit drunk. She clutched the thin quilt tightly with both hands, her body trembled slightly, and the fear in her heart was uncontrollable.

Wang Zimo was sent to the army because of false accounts, and now he has to make false accounts when he is here. The huge sum of money is definitely not comparable to that of Yanguan County.This is military corruption. If it is investigated and dealt with, it will not only be assassinated and exiled into the army, but it will lose its head!

She is afraid, how can she not be afraid, but after reading those account books, she has already boarded a pirate ship. If she does it, she may still be able to live on her last breath.

Wang Zimo wept silently, this day was really unbearable, she missed Lin Zhilan and her daughter very much.

Lin Zhilan, whom Wang Zimo was thinking about, was coaxing her daughter, feeding her, changing her diaper, and rocking her to sleep.It's just that the girl was not very obedient and kept humming.

"Bao'er, what's wrong with you, let's clean up and eat enough, it's time to sleep, be good." Lin Zhilan coaxed gently, but Bao'er was disobedient.

"Bao'er misses dad. Your dad has gone outside and will be back in a few days. Bao'er is disobedient. Dad will spank you when you come back." Lin Zhilan coaxed tiredly. Wang Zimo used to do this job. The child was clever, I can smell it, and it’s better during the day, but at night, I can’t coax it no matter what, I have to wait until I’m tired before going to sleep.

Lin Zhilan had no choice but to turn off the oil lamp, leaning against the bed and rocking gently, it took an unknown amount of time before Bao'er fell asleep.

Carefully put Bao'er on the bed, Lin Zhilan went to the outside room, propped up her tired body, and started kneading the dough, then heated the shepherd's purse in vegetable oil, let it cool down, sprinkled some diced meat, salt, sesame oil, and mixed well , Put it in the well and freeze it.

After preparing all the materials for tomorrow's business, Lin Zhilan cleaned up the inside and outside of the house again, washed her and Bao'er's dirty clothes, and then wiped herself in the kitchen.

At the end of the day, her whole body was sore, as if she had been run over by a car, Lin Zhilan slept next to Bao'er, she let out a long breath, and finally survived another day.

When one is extremely tired, it is difficult to fall asleep. Lin Zhilan calculated Wang Zimo's journey, reckoning that it was time to go to the prison camp, and counted the copper coins saved under the pillow, and couldn't help sighing, working hard for a whole month, planing To spend, it is only more than 100 coppers. When it comes to the Chinese New Year, I think it will only be five or six hundred coins. If Wang Zimo has no silver to send to manage, I am afraid that life will not be able to survive.

Lin Zhilan was very frustrated, but what could she do as a woman with a baby!

"Bao'er, your father is a bastard! Wang Zimo is a big villain!" Lin Zhilan gently caressed Bao'er's white and tender face in the dark, but said cruel words in her mouth: "People who travel through time are either princesses or young ladies, what should I do?" It’s just so unlucky to become a peasant woman! Ordinarily, it’s nothing more than a peasant woman, and An Sheng can farm and live, but with your father, it’s really bad luck for eight lifetimes!”

Under the moonlight, there was some crystal light on Lin Zhilan's face, and it disappeared with a touch of her bare hand.

Lin Zhilan, who had scolded Wang Zimo for a long time, got up before dawn, put plates of delicate thin-skinned wontons on the pickle, packed Bao'er and let the landlady take care of her, and went out resignedly to earn money to support the family.

Yanguan County is one of the two counties under the administration of Lin'an Prefecture. It has a pleasant climate, rich agricultural products, criss-crossing rivers and waterways, and prosperous business exchanges. It is the most prosperous and lively place.

Recently, in a miscellaneous market in the east of the city, a Wang’s Qianli Piaoxiang wonton stall appeared. The wontons are crystal clear, rolling on the water surface is very tempting. Putting them into the soup with lard and chopped green onions, you can just smell the fragrance It makes people salivate, take a bite, it is very strong, very rich in taste, accompanied by the hearty laughter of the beautiful proprietress, it is such a beautiful start to the day.

As soon as Lin Zhilan raised the pot, many people sat and waited for the wontons with thousands of miles of fragrance, and put down the wontons and wiped the table with soup.

"Hey, Boss Li is so early today, I'll give you two extra, I'll come back tomorrow!"

"Shopkeeper Chen, today is the old rule, eat one bowl and take one away?"

"Hey, Steward Liang, you're here. Ten bowls of wontons have already been prepared by my servant. They're fresh. I just made them in the morning."

Lin Zhilan's light and crisp voice echoed from time to time, and everyone who came here often could call out their names to the end.

"Miss Wang, my wife, my wife, and my young lady love to eat your wontons. My wife asked me to tell you that it's not easy for a woman to show her face outside and call for business. If you want to, how about going to the house to be a cook? Just take care of the masters' breakfast, and you don't have to worry about the rest, how about two hundred dollars a month?" Liang Butler asked kindly.

"The Liang family is a well-known benevolent person in the city. Mrs. Liang's love has been recorded by the slave family, but the head of the slave family is a sinner, and he dare not cause trouble for the Liang family. The slave family is working hard and cannot enjoy leisure. You always reply to Madam. In other words, if the young master or lady in the mansion wants to eat the ravioli from the Nu family, I will ask someone to tell me that it is the first day, and the Nu family will definitely prepare it properly." Lin Zhilan replied regretfully.

"Hey, you are a lady of the Wang family. Sincerely, you are the same as the head of the family. Then prepare ten more bowls tomorrow, and keep the money." Seeing that Lin Zhilan refused to agree, butler Liang had no choice but to give ten more coppers, as the head of the house. bounty.

When there are customers, she cooks wontons. When there are no customers, she packs wontons, washes the dishes and wipes the table. In order to earn more money, Lin Zhilan does not only the morning market, but also the lunch market.

The sun was in the west, the time was right, and the guests had almost dispersed. Lin Zhilan tidied up the tables and bowls, bought flour, shepherd's purse, fatty pork and other ingredients in the market, and went home with a heavy burden.

As soon as he entered the house, Bao'er heard the sound and burst into tears.Lin Zhilan didn't care about her greasy clothes, so she quickly took over Bao'er and coaxed her.When Bao'er smelled Lin Zhilan's familiar scent, she kept her mouth shut and didn't cry.

"Grandma Yang, thank you for taking care of Bao'er. There are still four bowls of wontons here at my slave's house. Don't dislike them." Lin Zhilan put her arms around Bao'er with one hand, and handed the specially left wontons to Granny Yang with the other.

"Little lady of the Wang family, what are you doing? I will take Bao'er for you, and you are also paid for it. Why do you still give food from time to time? It is not easy for you to make a living with children. Save yourself, my family does not lack this Food." Mrs. Yang pushed, but Lin Zhilan still forced it into her hand.

"Grandma Yang, my Bao'er has a bad temper. You are usually tired. This wonton is my own business and it's not worth a lot." Lin Zhilan smiled and went back to the house with her arms around Bao'er.

"Hey! This little lady!"

After entering the room with a bright smile, Lin Zhilan lifted her skirt to feed Bao'er. Seeing that Bao'er was so hungry and gasping for breath, Lin Zhilan felt so distressed.

Wang Zimo, you bastard, if you don't come back alive, my mother will chase you to the sky and destroy you!
