The daily life of the husband who crossed the field

Xiao Miao and Xu Zijia were taken away by Su Langzhong to collect herbs for several days in a row, while Zhang Zhen was bored at home alone, thinking about the upcoming Double Ninth Festival.Ninety-nine Chongyang Climb the heights and look far away, which is the feeling of most literati, poets, and wanderers in foreign lands. There are not many scholars in Yuhe Town, so although there are high mountains, the atmosphere of the festival is not very grand.

Zhang Zhen was planning to go out with Zijia that day, but of course it wasn't in Yuhe Town. He went to Jishui County to have a look. It must be more lively there.

From Yuhe Town to Jishui County, it takes a day's journey by horse-drawn carriage, and the ox cart is even slower. In addition to the long-distance fear of robbers on the road, there are not many people traveling between the two places all year round.There is a place to rent a carriage in the town, one tael of silver a day, Zhang Zhen calculates, buying a horse is only a dozen taels, and it will be needed in the future. a horse.

This time it's not just for fun, but the key is that the daughter-in-law's deed of prostitution needs to be canceled. It's not good to have long nights and dreams. In addition, Zhang Zhen is not satisfied with the town's market anymore, so it's okay to go to explore the road in advance.

After discussing with Xu Zijia, the two set off on September [-]th, before dawn, and arrived at dusk.

As expected, Jishui County is even more prosperous than Yuhe Town. Even at night, the tile shop is bustling with activity. There are people pushing carts who are getting ready to do business, and some shops have red lanterns hanging in front of them. Three or five friends hooked shoulders and drank wine.

The two drove the carriage into Jishui County and found an inn. The waiter saw a guest coming and greeted him warmly: "Does the guest want to stay at the inn?"

"Yes." Zhang Zhen handed him the carriage, "I want a better room."

"Okay! Go to the room!" Xiao Er pulled the carriage away, shouted at the shopkeeper in the inner room, then turned to Zhang Zhen and said, "I'll prepare hot water for you two later, wait a minute, do you want to serve the food?" ?”

Zhang Zhen didn't come here for one thing in the first place, and deliberately inquired about the level of the cooks here, nodded and said: "Let's serve some signature dishes."

The waiter smiled more enthusiastically this time. Knowing that he was willing to spend money, he drove the carriage to the backyard with a smile, and then waited for Zhang Zhen and the others to pay the deposit and take it to the guest room.

"Are you two from other places? It doesn't sound like a local accent."

Zhang Zhen didn't shy away from it, anyway, he could tell from his accent, "He's from Yu Hezhen, do you have any delicious food here?"

"No wonder the accent is not much different, so we are close." The waiter said again, "To tell you the truth, we have a lot of snacks here, not to mention other places, just our inn, the signature dishes are also authentic. Well, it is one of the best in our Jishui County, and all the guests who have been here will praise it, and the guest officer will taste it after a while."

"By the way, do you know how to get to the county government office?" Zhang Zhen followed up to the second floor, and found that the environment was quite elegant, but it was impossible to say that he was happy physically and mentally while he was there.

Hearing that Zhang Zhen said he was going to the county government office, the waiter in the shop was a little cautious, but he didn't show it on the face, and said straightforwardly: "If the guest officer needs it, I will take you there tomorrow, and turn from here to there. There are so many roads, I’m afraid I won’t be able to figure it out.”

It doesn't matter to Zhang Zhen, and it seems that the waiter in this store should be very familiar with Jishui County, so it's okay to bring him along, he must be more familiar with the process than himself.

The efficiency of the inn is still very high, and the dishes were served in a short while. It should be because there are not many people in them. They served three dishes and two soups. Disappointed, he originally thought that the level of cooks in the county should be better, but in fact they were not that good.

Thinking this way in my heart, Zhang Zhen still ate a lot, after all...it was quite expensive, but I couldn't bear to watch my daughter-in-law eat it, and after they removed all the plates, they took Zijia and went into the space kitchen, here Not only can you make hot food, but also yogurt and juice are enough!

"Ah Zhen wants to move to the county?" Xu Zijia asked after taking a sip of yogurt, more or less knowing Zhang Zhen's intentions.

"Yeah." Zhang Zhen didn't intend to hide it, "Yu Hezhen is too small, and they can earn so much every day. I want to find a place with more people to try."

Xu Zijia understood what he meant, and gave his own point of view: "But Ah Zhen, although the county is much larger than Yuhe Town, I think the cooking skills here are still far from yours. Although we can be the best here , but we don’t know anyone here, and it’s not like we’re the only one selling in the town, so it’s easy to offend people, and we’re a lot of inconvenience when we’re new here, and if we sell too well, it’s easy to attract people’s envy.”

This is Xu Zijia's worry. They haven't prepared anything yet. If they come here rashly, it may not be feasible.

"Xiao Zijia's words are reasonable, so my current thinking is, why don't we go directly to Jijiang Prefecture, the craftsmanship in the prefecture must be much better than that in the county, and we will not be so eye-catching, and the law and order will be better." Zhang Zhen If you have a goal, you don't plan to just linger in one place.

Xu Zijia understood the man's idea of ​​aiming everywhere, thought for a while and suggested: "The things in Fucheng are very expensive, we can't go there now." A better shop costs several thousand taels, and they don't have that much money yet.

Although Zhang Zhen doesn't know how expensive it is, but if a young master of the Shangshu Mansion can say that the price is high, I'm afraid he can't afford it now. After listening to Xu Zijia's gentle reminder, he said with a smile: "Then we will go there when we have money." .”

Xu Zijia mixed a glass of juice and handed it to Zhang Zhen, nodded and said, "Okay." Although a few thousand taels is a lot, he believed in Ah Zhen.

One of the things has been settled. This inn is not small compared to others. Although what the waiter said is a bit exaggerated, it should be the same. Zhang Zhen has no intention of continuing to see how other cooking skills are in Jishui County.

The next day Zhang Zhen went to the county government office with the waiter, because he was a local, and almost everyone from the inn came. The waiter was very familiar with the process and took them directly to the place of work.

Afterwards, in order to thank the shop assistant, Zhang Zhen specially gave a tael of silver as a reward. Unexpectedly, such a good thing would happen. Courtesy introduces the things that need to be prepared and paid attention to during the Double Ninth Festival.

After canceling the contract of prostitution, Zhang Zhen is really happy physically and mentally now. Holding that thing in his hand always feels like a shock, and he wants to throw it away but dare not throw it away. Now it's fine, and he doesn't have to worry about it anymore.

Two of the three things have been solved, and the last thing left is to enjoy the fun of climbing on the Double Ninth Festival. There is a Jinshi Mountain near Jishui County. There is a huge strange rock on the mountain. It's solid and shows no signs of falling off.It is said that the Jinshi admitted from Jishui County often visited the boulders of this mountain, so more students came here to climb the mountain.

Zhang Zhen himself did not intend to take the imperial examination. He is not familiar with memorizing the Four Books and Five Classics, and he probably has no idea about policy theory.

On the day of the Double Ninth Festival, there were indeed many people in Jinshi Mountain, many scholars, and many ordinary people came to join in the fun.

In autumn, many plants and trees begin to wither slowly. There are groups of people climbing Jinshi Mountain, the former responding to the latter, and the lively scene is not restricted by autumn at all.

The dogwoods on Jinshi Mountain grow luxuriantly, and wandering scholars can pick them everywhere and put them on their bodies.At the foot of the mountain, there were some people selling gadgets, and on the top of the mountain, there were also people selling water and cold cakes. Zhang Zhen couldn't help sighing. Sure enough, tourism is a project from ancient times to the present.

Before climbing the height, Zhang Zhen specially changed the young daughter-in-law into a scholar's outfit. After putting it on, she really has a more elegant demeanor. Xu Zijia herself is not feminine, and she is handsome and gentle. Putting on this outfit makes her look even more elegant Gentleman's feeling.

"Little Jia, I don't even want to let you go out." Zhang Zhen was a little distressed. The Double Ninth Festival here is not just the Double Ninth Festival. Many unmarried girls of Yunying will go to the mountains to meet suitable people. The boy feels that he is well prepared. Well, if you are willing, you will try it.

"You think too much. There are many talented people and beautiful women there. I am married to a man. What are you thinking?" Xiao Zijia opened the fan, and the black bamboo on it was himself. Drawn, pretending to be regretful: "But if Ah Zhen is really unhappy, I won't wear it."

"Go, why don't you go? My little Zijia, even if he is a brother, is much stronger than them! It's just a pity that my husband's appearance is not salty, and I will embarrass my little Zijia." Zhang Zhen sighed pretending to be depressed.

"If you have no salt, then I'm ugly." Xu Zijia said sincerely, Ah Zhen is naturally the prettiest in his eyes.

Zhang Zhen was happy and sad at the same time, this Shou Song's appearance was not bad, but compared to him, he always felt that it was not as good as him, this kid Jia actually liked Zhang Shou Song's appearance, and he was jealous of himself, he understood it today.

Bought two small masks, Zhang Zhen took his daughter-in-law's hand to climb the mountain, at first people kept looking at them, Xu Zijia was a little embarrassed, but Zhang Zhen tapped his mask and said: "They don't know what we look like , besides, how tiring it is to climb a mountain!" Insist on walking hand in hand.

The more people climbed up, the more people supported each other, and the two became less conspicuous. Zhang Zhen then took off the masks of the two, and helped the little daughter-in-law smooth out her sweaty forehead hair.

Two people, one looks like jade, the other is handsome and affectionate, the young girl secretly smiled when he saw it, his eyes showed envy, and Xu Zijia was a little embarrassed when he laughed, but he was also strong and calm, Ah Zhen belonged to him, who knows... ...and just look at it too.

Sensing Xu Zijia's concern, Zhang Zhen was even happier, and took him by the hand to walk to the top of the mountain: "If the paintings of those talented scholars on the mountain can be five points better than that of Xiao Zijia, I will praise him."

"It's not that exaggerated." Although Xu Zijia thought he was not bad, he knew that there were people outside the mountain, so he didn't dare to trust him.
