The wine in the pot was already more leaky, Zhang Yubo called the shopkeeper Song Wu's sister-in-law to settle the bill, Song Wu's sister-in-law said: "A total of 300 yuan, Lai Wu helped Master Zhang settle the ......"

"What do I want him to do at checkout? I don't have this friendship with him, so I'll pay him back. Zhang Yubo asked the accompanying servants to count three hundred yuan from the coat to pay for the wine to Song Wu's sister-in-law, and walked out of the wine pavilion with Lin Tie and Lin Mengde, Chen Laiwu and a few of his subordinates were still guarding the courtyard, probably hearing Zhang Yubo's words in the wine pavilion, his face was stunned, and he stood there and wanted to come over to say hello, but he was afraid that he would be bored.

The servants set up the carriage in the courtyard, in the quiet night, the sound of the horse's snort was particularly loud, Lin Lian and Zhang Yubo, Lin Mengde sat in the carriage respectively, and the guys in the store helped open the door, only to see Qian Xiaowu squatting outside the courtyard door, his clothes were thin, his body was curled up and trembling, and when he saw that the carriage was about to leave the yard, he ran in and knelt down and kowtowed: "Xiao Wu was dizzy just now, and I forgot to kowtow to my son to say thank you when I went out, and Xiao Wu didn't dare to take advantage of others, as long as Lai Wuye didn't force me to pawn Yun Niang, I would be given some time." , even if I die, I will return the money to him......"

"How big can it be, worth keeping watch outside the yard in the middle of the night?" Lin Lian hurriedly got out of the car and helped Qian Xiaowu up from the cold brick ground, and grabbed his arm, only to really feel that he was really thin, on a cold night, there were not a few taels of cotton in the sandwich of the robe, and his body was so cold that he swayed, and he hurriedly untied the open cloak on his body and draped it on him.

Chen Laiwu finally caught saying something next to him, and he glared at Qian Xiaowu: "Who wants you to pay back the money, what you said to me Chen Laiwu in front of my son is a fart?" ”

"Okay," Lin Jian said, "Xiao Wu was beaten by you in Dongshi, and he was injured for a few days, and the interest on this money will be waived, he owes you eight hundred dollars, I will pay it back for him first, and you will clear it twice," asked Lin Jingzhong to count eight hundred dollars to Chen Laiwu, and said to Qian Xiaowu, "I want to ask you to run errands for me in the future; In addition, my house lacks a kitchen to do chores, that is, to be a helper for Miss Liu, and the work is not heavy, if you and your lady are not wronged, come to Dustpan Lane tomorrow morning, ......" and said to Song Wu's sister-in-law, "Please ask the fifth sister-in-law to give Qian Xiaowu half a pot of wine and burn a pound of mutton for him to bring back." "Let Lin Jingzhong tie the money for wine and meat with Song Wuniang.

Qian Xiaowu was about to kneel down again, but Lin Tie hugged him and said: "You have also studied for a few years, and I am also a student, don't have this ......broken rule between us" Looking at Qian Xiaowu's face with tears, he sighed lightly, and Zhang Yubo and Lin Mengde, who were waiting in their respective carriages, arched their hands and said, "Let's go." He got into the carriage first, and then gave Lin Jingzhong a hand and pulled him up.

Lin Mengde saw all this, and sighed slightly in his heart, although he didn't know Qian Xiaowu's affection, and he didn't know what talents he had, thinking about the situation tonight, thinking that it was strange that Qian Xiaowu didn't sell his life to Lin Lian, and thought in his heart, winning people's hearts is a truth that most of the superiors know, but it is easier said than done, he really hasn't seen anyone who can do it as meticulously as Lin Lian, even he, a cold-eyed bystander who thinks he has seen through the world, also feels slightly moved.

*******************

Back in Jiyunju, it was already late at night, except for Zhao Hu and Chen Enze, who were still guarding the door, everyone else had already slept. Lin Jingzhong couldn't get rid of the wine, and he was excited to pull Zhao Hu to talk about what happened tonight, Lin Lian went back to the room and sat down, thinking about whether there was anything wrong with tonight's actions, and took out a book to read. After a while, Liu Yue'er came in with a basin of hot water: "What happened at night?" The Zhao family brother stuffed a few ingots of silver into me, saying that he wanted to see a fire in the city, and asked me to lead his brother to hide in the Gu family......"

"It's nothing," Lin Jian said with a smile, thinking that it was probably Zhao Hu who knew what happened tonight from the fourth lady and went to the outside of the domain building to keep watch for half the night, seeing that there was no change in the domain building before returning to Jiyunju, thinking that it was very late at this time, and he would ask Zhao Hu about it tomorrow. It is said that what you are doing outside, it is more convenient to have light and darkness, but there are too few people around you who can use it, looking at Liu Yue'er waking up and getting up, she took the hot water basin and said, "These things shouldn't be done by you, you go back and rest......"

"You men, you are too lazy to move to boil hot water, most of the time you sleep without washing your feet, it won't take a few days for the bed to stink like something, and you will suffer even more when you wash the bedding in winter." Liu Yue'er yawned, covered her lips with her hand a little shyly, her eyes looked at the books on the bookcase, she also knew a few words, and thought: If you don't read serious scientific research books at night, you have the heart to read "Da Yue Law * Prison Letter" late at night?

"By the way, didn't you think about inviting Qian Xiaowu and his wife to come over to help the maid a few days ago, I met Qian Xiaowu at night, please ask him and his wife to come over tomorrow morning, if there is anything in the house, you tell them to do it first......" Lin Jian told Liu Yue'er about it.

"Hmm." Liu Yue'er felt strange in her heart: I saw that people were bullied so badly a few days ago, and I didn't like a lover, but I met someone and my wife to come over to help me tonight, I really don't know what he thinks? She guarded the forest, washed her face and feet, and took the water away before going to sleep.

The next day, Lin Jian didn't have the habit of getting up early, listening to the chickens in the alley, and the blue light from the window paper was still faint, he wondered in his heart: This dustpan alley is full of big families, why do people still raise roosters that only crow? Whether it was Liu Yue'er or Zhao Hu, Lin Jingzhong, Zhou Pu, and Chen Enze, they all developed the habit of smelling chickens, but they all tiptoed when they passed by the main courtyard, and Lin Jian slept again, until he heard Liu Yue'er talking with Qian Xiaowu and his wife in the courtyard, and he got dressed and got up.

Qian Xiaowu was thinly dressed, standing in the courtyard with his shoulders curled, and saw Lin Tie walking out of the door, pulling his wife over to ask for peace: "Son, after Xiao Wu and Yun Niang come over, I will listen to the call of Son...... "The cloak that Lin Tie gave him yesterday was neatly folded and held in his arms, and handed it over, "This is Son's leather robe......"

"It's not a good dress, you can keep it and wear it," Lin Jian said, "You didn't have breakfast, did you?" Have breakfast first, and then talk about other things...... "Let Liu Yue'er take them to the backyard for breakfast first, seeing that Qian Xiaowu and his wife's clothes are really thin, pull Zhao Hu and ask him to hurry to the clothing appraisal shop on the street to buy two thick cotton clothes for Qian Xiaowu and his wife.

Lin Jian practiced his strength with a soft bow in the courtyard, and practiced the knife again. He didn't deliberately go to learn knife skills with Zhou Pu, for him, learning knife skills no longer need to care about any tricks, although there are many inappropriate places in the stabbing technique, but the principle of technical attack is always the same, as long as the knife is familiar in the hand, it is a sharp weapon for killing.

Sweating, Lin Jian walked to the front yard and saw Chen Enze and Zhao Hu's brother Zhao Mengxiong practicing fists and feet. Don't look at Zhao Mengxiong is only twelve years old, more than three years younger than Chen Enze, but he is only half a head shorter, his body is stronger, and his strength is great.

Lin Jingzhong squatted aside and said with a smile: "Zhao Hu and his three brothers are all reincarnated as overlords, listen to my mother and say that Aunt Zhao raised three brothers, and went to other people's houses to buy ewes that had just given birth to cubs, and fed them with goat's milk......"

Lin Jian beckoned Chen Enze and Zhao Mengxiong to come over to rest, afraid that Chen Enze would be frustrated because he couldn't beat Zhao Mengxiong, who was three years younger than him, pointed to his skull, and said to them: "Be brave and brave, but the real strength of people is here." Then he followed Chen Enze and said, "After you finish your homework every day in the future, you will follow your brother Jingzhong to do things...... Remember, it's better to do less and not to fall behind in the homework you need to do every day. ”

"Hmm." Chen Enze nodded in agreement, he had experienced more hardships than Lin Jingzhong could imagine, so naturally he would not be easily depressed.

Lin Tie smiled, and told Lin Jingzhong about asking him to help Zhao Mengxiong find a private school near Dustpan Lane, at this time, Qian Xiaowu and his wife came out after breakfast and changed into thick cotton clothes, and stood aside waiting for Lin Tie to finish talking to Lin Jingzhong, Liu Yue'er came over and said: "Xiao Wu and Yun Niang lived in a broken kiln house in the west of the city earlier, the four walls are leaking, and the backyard is still empty, isn't it ......?"

The backyard of a really big family only lives in maids and mothers-in-law, and couples will not be allowed to live in it, Lin Jian naturally doesn't have those particularities, thinking that maybe Liu Yue'er herself is afraid of living alone in the backyard, so she nodded and agreed: "Okay, it's empty anyway," and said to Qian Xiaowu, "You and Yun Niang are both helping in the house first, what errands, washing and washing in winter, don't let the two of them do it, you will work hard...... Your husband and wife are here to help, you don't have to worry about food, clothing, housing and transportation, and you two will save 800 yuan a month, what do you think? ”

Qian Xiaowu said boldly: "Xiao Wu has read for a few years and knows a few rough words, if Gongzi and Brother Mengxiong don't dislike it, I can take the time to teach him ......"

"Oh," Lin Jian only knew that Qian Xiaowu was literate and had an excellent memory, but he didn't expect him to have the confidence to be a teacher, and asked strangely, "Why don't you take a fame test, even if you mix a stone of rice money every month from the house, it's better than helping people run errands on the street?" ”

"My father was a pig killer," Qian Xiaowu smiled bitterly, "My first mother, Zhou Ruren, was born ...... lighter."

Qian Xiaowu did not shy away from saying that his father was born as a pig slaughterer, but he was talking about his mother's background, Lin Jian naturally didn't ask more, and said: "That dream bear will bother you more, in addition to literacy, books such as "University" and "The Mean" are taught less, you might as well start with history books such as "Spring and Autumn Tongjian...... In addition to the moon silver, I will count you as a teacher. ”

"Don't dare to ask for more, Meng Gongzi takes in the cheap couple, Xiao Wu and Yun Niang will not be able to repay them for being cows and horses in the next life." Qian Xiaowu said sincerely.

"What are you doing here, I'll pay you to help, it's enough for you to do your best work......" Lin Jian said with a smile, at this time, there was a sound of horses' hooves outside the door, and it stopped outside the door, I don't know who came to the door at this time, Qian Xiaowu was also very clever, ran to open the door, and saw Gu Wuchen's follower, Yang Pu's son Yang Shi standing in front of the door.

"It turned out to be Brother Yang Shi, what happened when you came over early in the morning?" Lin Jian asked.

"Lord Gu asked you to come over, and Lord Gu also said, if you don't have breakfast, go over and eat together." Yang Shi said.
