Chapter 22 Is It You Who Are Rare?
Before dawn the next day, Zhao Hao got up and went to the room first to heat up the leftovers from last night.
Then he washed Zhao Shouzheng's face and prepared his teeth and pancreas, and then called him to get up.
Zhao Shouzheng, who had a hangover, rubbed his swollen head, and couldn't remember what he said last night.
"Father, I'll eat less in the future." Zhao Hao served him a meal while persuading: "Your head is not very bright, and if you drink badly, you will not be able to take the exam." ”
"Uh......" Zhao Shouzheng was speechless, and nodded after a while: "Okay." ”
After the father and son finished breakfast, they threw the dishes and chopsticks into the basin, and Zhao Hao couldn't wait to pull Zhao Shouzheng out of the house.
The two of them no longer have the interest of strolling around today, and they walked in a hurry, and arrived at the street outside the Drum Tower in more than half an hour.
"There are a few shops on this street where you can buy brown sugar." Zhao Shouzheng wiped his sweat with the towel around his neck.
Zhao Hao shook his head. "You can't buy it here, let's go farther."
"Be cautious." Zhao Shouzheng praised: "If you are cautious, you can strengthen your will, and if you are cautious, you can respect your virtue." My son will become a great thing. ”
Zhao Hao rolled his eyes, and said in his heart that you know everything, and forget it all as soon as you do things......
However, there was something important to do today, and he didn't want to waste time complaining, so he pulled Zhao Shouzheng straight through the outer street of the Drum Tower, and then crossed the square in front of the Drum Tower, and came to the fish market street with the same prosperous business and department stores.
The father and son went separately in four shops and bought a total of 50 catties of brown sugar. Then he picked up these sugars, went to Beimen Bridge, and repeated the old trick again, and bought another fifty catties of brown sugar in four stores.
Zhao Hao once again spent all the money on his body......
Naturally, there was no money to hire a porter, so Zhao Shouzheng took the burden and walked to Caijia Lane, which was more than ten miles away.
Zhao Hao wanted to take turns with him to carry the burden, but Zhao Shouzheng insisted on not allowing it.
"My son still has to grow his body, but he can't be crushed."
Zhao Hao couldn't compete with him, so he had to fan him with a hat and encourage Zhao Shouzheng spiritually.
But Zhao Shouzheng really can't pick up his shoulders and can't lift his hands. He staggered, walked and rested, and I don't know how many citizens laughed along the way.
You must know that in this era, the working people who carry a burden of two or three hundred catties will pick it up and leave, and even women and children will not be suppressed by this weight.
"Ignore them." Zhao Hao gave a thumbs up with both hands, and cheered him up with admiration on his face: "Father is the best!" Come on, come on! ”
Although Zhao Shouzheng didn't know what 'come on' was, he was still excited. I saw him roar, and rushed out with his burden.
Unexpectedly, before he rushed out of ten zhang, his legs were weak and he fell to the ground. If it weren't for Zhao Hao's constant defense against him and quickly catching the flat burden, he would have to spill all the sugar on the ground.
"No, no, no, I have the heart to kill the thief for my father, but I can't do it." Zhao Shouzheng sat in the shade of the tree, panting and said, "Wait for me to rest for a while, and then go into battle." ”
~~
Zhao Hao hurriedly went to the well on the side, came back with scoop well water, and added brown sugar to the water.
Zhao Shouzheng grunted, and then he felt that he was alive again.
"It's a long way to go, so let's keep going."
Zhao Shouzheng was holding on to the trunk of the tree, forcing himself to get up.
At this moment, I suddenly heard a call of surprise out of thin air.
"Hey, isn't this my brother?"
The father and son followed the prestige, and saw a tall man wearing a black gauze scarf and a half-used blue soap-edged shirt, running from a distance with a happy face.
"Ah, brother, it's you!"
When the man got closer, Zhao Hao saw that his appearance was not bad, but his eye-catching ears were quite funny. Look at his eyes blue, there are still some eye-catching oil stains on the placket, and there is a sense of depression all over his body, which can be felt from a few feet away.
When Zhao Shouzheng saw someone coming, he also smiled, stood up and said to the other party: "Brother Xian, my good brother is really early, it's better to come by coincidence." ”
"Really?" The man blinked in surprise and said with anticipation, "Brother has a table to eat?" ”
"Naturally, there is." Zhao Shouzheng said and pointed to the burden, and smiled happily: "But you have to help me first and carry this home." ”
"No problem, as soon as the elder brother speaks, the younger brother will go to the soup and fire, and he will not give up."
The man looked at the two cloth bags tied to the two ends of the flat shoulder, and felt that they were not very big, so he slapped his chest loudly. After speaking, he noticed Zhao Hao on the side, and said with a smile: "This is a virtuous nephew, right?" It's grown so big. ”
Zhao Hao was a little confused by this familiar guy. Barely smiling, it can be regarded as a courtesy.
"This kid doesn't like to talk much." The people who came didn't care, and they bent down to pick up the flat burden and had to stand up.
"Oh, it's so heavy, it's heavy......" The man looked at the skeleton quite large, but it was just a silver-like pewter gun head. He looked at Zhao Shouzheng for help and said, "Brother help me send a shot." ”
Zhao Shouzheng helped him carry the burden, and then pulled his son to lead the way.
The man had no choice but to carry the burden honestly and follow behind with a sigh.
Narrowing the distance a little, Zhao Hao finally couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Who is this?" ”
"He is my classmate in Guozijian, and his name is Fan Datong. The five taels before were borrowed by this kid, and I didn't count how much money I gave him when I was three or five before. Zhao Shouzheng whispered to Zhao Hao.
Zhao Hao suddenly said in his heart that he could catch the coolie now......
But that Fan Datong is a waste of wood, and he didn't pick a few hundred steps and shouted tired behind him.
"Brother, shall we relay?" Fan Datongba looked at Zhao Shouzheng and knew that he had always been soft-hearted.
"Pay back!" Zhao Hao glared at him angrily. The heart said that this guy is so shameless, knowing that my father is down, he still has to borrow money from him.
"Nephew, you're joking, aren't you?" Fan Datong blinked and looked at Zhao Hao, who was tender and ruthless.
"If you hit the ground, pay back the money immediately." Zhao Hao stretched out his hand to him and said unrelentingly: "First return the five taels of the day before yesterday." ”
"Huh?" Fan Datong was stunned and looked at Zhao Shouzheng.
Zhao Shouzheng shrugged his shoulders and said that he couldn't help.
"Brother Xian doesn't know, now my family is headed by my son, and I, the father, can't speak well."
"I didn't say I wouldn't pick it." Fan Datong immediately recognized the situation, and said with vigor: "Virtuous nephew, believe it or not, I can pick your house in one go!" ”
"Faith." Zhao Hao pursed his lips, unwilling to deal with him.
Fan Datong reluctantly continued to move forward with a heavy load, and lamented to Zhao Shouzheng: "Brother, Ling Gongzi's temper is not like yours." ”
"My son is a hundred times more self-reliant." Zhao Shouzheng was triumphant when he heard this, and only after he finished speaking did he ask about his intentions.
"The day before yesterday, I forgot to ask my brother for a new address, and I was worried about not knowing how to meet, but I didn't expect to meet today, which can be described as 'fate to meet'." Fan Datong replied seriously. In fact, he walked around the north of the city in the past two days, just to find Zhao Shouzheng.
"Really? That's not bad. Zhao Shouzheng's heart warmed when he heard this, and he laughed at himself: "It shows that I haven't failed to be a man and have not reached home." ”
Zhao Hao secretly rolled his eyes when he heard this, and said in his heart: "Are people rare you?" Are people scarce of your silver? ’
