Chapter 90 The Zhang family who was played by the wisdom brain
The bubbling habits are eternally gone, and the wide spread of Pinggao is injected.
Pingao is known as the riverbank plain, and Pingao County in Hanoi County is the area on the north bank of the Yellow River in the county.
As soon as Mo Xiaobai and his entourage landed ashore, they had already stepped into the scope of Pinggao County.
Along the official road of the Han Dynasty all the way to the north, during which I passed by some small Zhuangzi, but that was not the destination of Mo Xiaobai's trip, and continued to walk more than ten miles, and finally saw Pinggao County.
Originally, it was very troublesome to enter the city during the war, but Mo Xiaobai showed his identity as a baron, and the city gate pawn immediately opened the door and let him go. Immediately afterwards, he inquired about the Zhang family's residence in the city, and half an hour later, Mo Xiaobai finally took his sister to the door of Zhang Chunhua's house.
I knocked on the door, and it took a while to hear a 'crunch' sound.
"I don't know how many, who is it?"
An elderly man opened the door and took two steps forward with his not very neat legs: "My lord is inconvenient to see guests these days, if you come to look for my lord, please go back." ”
With that, it's time to close the door.
"Old man is not in a hurry, I can't wait a hundred miles to come, can't I ask for a bowl of water to drink?"
Mo Xiaobai made a package ticket to his sister, how could he eat behind closed doors here, and showed his identity with a low smile: "I am a baron of the Han Dynasty, you go to report to your lord, I want to come to him to meet me." ”
The Zhang family is not the Sima family, it is not a family of scholars, and the name of a baron can't help the Sima family, but it is definitely useful in front of the Zhang family.
"My lord is him, alas, just a few distinguished guests." When the old man heard Mo Xiaobai's identity, he sighed and left the aisle.
Zhang's mansion is not big, there are only two courtyards in total, and it doesn't even take a minute to walk around, and it can't be compared with Mo Xiaobai's own baronial mansion at all.
just walked for most of the circle, except for the old man next to him, he didn't see anyone else, Mo Xiaobai was a little weird: "Dare to ask, where is your master Zhang Xianling?" ”
"The lord is still drunk in the inner room of the master mother." The old man sighed lightly again, stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction of the backyard: "Wait a moment, let me go and tell the lord." ”
Leaving Mo Xiaobai and the others in the living room, the lame old man limped to the inner room.
"Brother, where is Zhang Chunhua?" Mo Xiaoyou has been scanning around since she entered the mansion, but unfortunately she didn't see the target she was looking for for a long time.
"Maybe, let's go out and play." Mo Xiaobai shook his head, this Zhang family was weird up and down, no matter how you looked at it, it looked like it was about to end.
"Then I'll wait here for Zhang Chunhua to come back."
"Okay, we'll wait for her here."
After the brother and sister finished speaking, they waited slowly in the living room, and after waiting for at least four or five minutes, Zhang Chunhua didn't see it, but the lame old man came back.
looked at Mo Xiaobai and the others, and apologized: "I've kept the baron waiting for a long time, my lord is drunk and unconscious, I'm afraid I won't be able to see guests." ”
"Drunk in broad daylight? Why is that? ”
"This, this, the baron doesn't know, the lord is depressed and drunk, all because the lord is in danger."
As the old man told the story, Mo Xiaobai and the others finally knew what happened to the Zhang family.
A month ago, Bingzhou raised troops to invade Gaoling, Zhang's family advocated that Wang fled east with his wife and daughter, and the escape was not smooth, and he was repeatedly tossed by Bingzhou soldiers and mountain bandits, and his guards and diners were killed and wounded and fled, and Zhang Chunhua's mother Shan was also injured in the process of fleeing, with blood loss and high fever.
finally escaped all the way back to Pinggao, Zhang Wang is now gone, his wife is dying, and the blow has made this family owner who has little ability to bear it increasingly depressed.
Complaining in his heart that the small plot arranged by Zhi Brain for the Zhang family was simply miserable, Mo Xiaobai asked: "Zhang's mansion suffered this accident, I don't know who is in charge of the mansion at this time?" ”
"Zhang Fu, it's all up to Miss at the moment."
When the old man said 'Miss', he squeezed out some smiles on his face, and then spoke: "It's just that Miss is decocting medicine for the mistress at the moment, and I'm afraid it will be inconvenient to meet guests." ”
What?
Now is Zhang Chunhua's housekeeper?
Mo Xiaobai's eyelids jumped, if I remember correctly, Zhang Chunhua was about ten years old at this time.
Can she tell the difference between firewood, rice, oil, and salt?
"I'm going to see her decoction." Mo Xiaoyou had been waiting for news from Zhang Chunhua, and now when he heard that Zhang Chunhua was in the mansion, he immediately pulled his eldest brother's arm.
"Well, I wonder if you can take us to see what the hell? Maybe we can help. ”
"Well, a couple of distinguished guests come with me."
Following the lame old man from the living room to the backyard kitchen, the expected messy picture did not appear, one large and one small, two medicine stoves, standing side by side with a large stove.
A slender figure would look down at the medicine stove for a while, and then look at the stewed porridge in the cauldron.
The girl who was busy in the kitchen felt the sound of footsteps, and without looking back, she said, "Why is Lu Bo here again?" It's okay right here, you go take care of Daddy, and I'll take the medicine later. ”
"Miss, there's a guest in the house."
"Visitor?"
Hearing the old man speak in a low voice, the girl turned around and revealed a face that was not amazing, but a little delicate: "Oh, how do you bring guests here, Uncle Lu, you go and invite your father, and I will take a few guests to the front hall." ”
Seeing that Mo Xiaobai and the others had already entered the kitchen, the little girl immediately wiped her hands and walked out, just as she wanted to say something more, Mo Xiaoyou had already stepped forward happily: "You are Zhang Chunhua?" Hmm~ It's a little uglier than on TV. ”
When Mo Xiaoyou saw the real Zhang Chunhua, his face was full of curiosity. Zhang Chunhua was even more surprised when she heard her reveal her name: "How do you know my name, and what is TV?" ”
"It's TV, you don't understand. Your father is already drunk, how about we come to help you decoct medicine, I haven't decocted Chinese medicine at home. ”
Mo Xiaoyou looked very interested at the clay pot on the stove, and after Zhang Chunhua heard that his father was drunk again, a gloom suddenly flashed in his eyes.
"Since they're all here, let's help if you can."
Mo Xiaobai saw that the Zhang family had become 'miserable' to this extent, waved his hand and motioned for Li Ji and others to help, and took out five silver coins to He Chun: "Go to the county seat and take a look, if there are any chickens, ducks and poultry, buy some back." ”
"Whoa."
He Chun clenched his fists and left, but Zhang Chunhua stopped Li Ji: "Eh, eh, what are you going to do?" This is my house, and if my father knew that I asked you to work here, he would say that I am not. ”
"Oh, don't worry, they won't do any damage, I'll show you the rabbit I brought." Mo Xiaoyou pulled Zhang Chunhua and turned his head to look at his mother: "Mom, give me that gray-eared rabbit." ”
"But, I, I still have to decoction."
Mo Xiaoyou didn't give Zhang Chunhua a chance to say more at all, and naturally waved his hand: "Let them fry, we are here to watch, supervise their work, and ensure that your mother will get better after drinking the medicine." ”
"Really? Can the mother's illness be cured? ”
"Of course it's true, if you don't believe it, ask my brother, he's very powerful."
