Chapter six hundred and forty-one(1/2)
Chapter 641: It’s hard to make money in the world.
Xiao Bei had no idea of giving the child back to the woman.
Soon, a group of doctors and maids from home came over and carried the child over, listening with a stethoscope while taking the pulse, and taking the bags.
Xiaobei and Xiaoyuan also asked someone to use a curtain to surround it and wait for the curtain to ease down. Unless their hair is a little wet, the rest of their bodies will become dry.
The woman who glared at her to stop crying but was still sobbing but did not dare to resist, Xiao Bei turned his head and remembered that the fisherman who helped save people came.
He is a very old person who always makes a living in the river. He has strong winds and bad skin, so it makes people feel that he is older than the actual one.
In addition to this person, there were four more people on the boat, five, one woman who looked older, one young man, and one young woman, and a little boy similar to Beckham. The young woman had a baby in her arms, and was breastfeeding her child, and she was slightly tilted, not too shy about others.
"I haven't thanked this old man for helping me. I'll give it to the old man for a hundred stakes." When Xiao Bei spoke, he raised his feet and wanted to see what the child who was breastfed looked like, but he couldn't see that he was breastfed.
The fisherman who saved the man was nervous at first. When he heard Xiao Bei's words, his face suddenly changed and he sank. He turned his face and spit out two words: "No."
The other three adults also looked ugly, and even the boy who was about the same age as Xiao Bei snorted, indicating that he was angry.
"No, you saved my child, and I will help your child too. If you don't have much money, add some clothes to the child." Xiao Bei was very good at speaking and pointed to the child who was breasted.
Immediately, a maid and a man from the inner courtyard went to public relations for chores so that others could accept the money.
The woman who brought the child into the water stopped working: "My child."
"Not now, it's mine. Your child has drowned. From now on, her surname is Zhang. She is my sister of Zhang Xiaobei. The Tang Dynasty inspector has become ten people to patrol the Tang Dynasty."
Xiao Bei had no good expression on the woman and pointed at the rescued child.
"Yes, there will be ten people in the future. Tian Can shook evil ghosts and listened to all directions without ears." Xiaoyuan also supported.
The fisherman who saved the child was refusing to have money. When he heard Xiaobei and Xiaoyuan's words, he grabbed the banknotes of hundreds of cents and wanted to put them in his arms. He was worried. He turned his head and handed them to the woman with a windy and frosty face and said, "Please keep it away, don't lose it. Xiaobei gave it to him and made it into a purse and wear it close to the child. It will bring you happiness and longevity, and you will have no illness or disaster."
The woman nodded repeatedly, took it carefully, put it in her arms, and then stopped moving with her hands.
Xiao Bei was stunned: "The money is used to buy clothes for the children."
"There are clothes at home." The fishermen did not change their original intentions.
Xiaobei looked at Xiaoyuan helplessly. Xiaoyuan touched himself. He changed his clothes and had no money. He stepped up and reached out to reach him. He took out a handful of coins from the pocket of the male servant next to him and handed them over:
"Give it, put the coins in your wallet. The coins I gave are the same effect as those given by Xiao Bei. The banknotes are stored for a short time, and it will be a pity if they are broken. Spend it, use the money given by Xiao Bei to buy things, wear comfortable clothes, eat healthy, and use it as a handy person."
The fisherman was not polite either. He really took the coins in Xiaoyuan's hand, and it seemed that he didn't plan to return the 100-guan.
The woman who put the child in the water became honest when she heard what Xiaobei and Xiaoyuan said, looking blankly at her daughter who had been re-wrapped in velvet cloth, and a smile suddenly appeared on her face.
Xiaobei was startled: "It's not crazy, right? Don't scare me. I won't be guilty of being crazy. It was the child you threw away first, and then I'll come and sue you. I'm not afraid of you even if you beat the lawsuit to Hanyuan Palace. From Dali Temple to the Censorate, no one will talk to you."
Xiaoyuan touched Xiaobei next to him: "What did you tell her about this? Doctor, go and see if it can be cured?"
"I'm not crazy." The woman said quickly.
"I know, you are a normal person, don't move, doctor, go quickly." Xiaoyuan said.
"I'm not crazy, I'm so happy. I can live again, and my child can live too. I said I gave birth to an evil ghost, said I can't get through the water disaster, and said I'm a demon woman. I thought that if the child cannot get through the water disaster, she will die, and I will jump into a well when I go back, become a ghost, and I will pester them."
The woman seemed to be talking to herself, and she seemed to explain to Xiao Bei Xiaoyuan. A few words made everyone around her understand.
The woman laughed again: "Hahahahaha, but my son has gone through this disaster. Yes, after that, he will be the inspector of the Tang Dynasty. That's right, no one dares to move from Dali Temple to the Censorate. Ha, he went around, inspected the place, and killed corrupt officials, and shot the Dust King.
Xiao Bei, I can work. I was originally their maid. I can do any work. Please let me be your maid. I can sleep for two hours a day. I can eat leftovers, wear thick clothes and sleep in the woods. I can do it."
As he spoke, the woman wanted to kneel down and kowtow, but was held by someone and could not move.
Xiaobei and Xiaoyuan didn't say anything. A maid was reluctant and said to the woman: "How can the master's family be treated like this? You don't say dirty words when you scold people, who knows whether what you said is true or false?"
Xiao Bei nodded, not believing what the other party said. At the same time, he thought that this woman was not stupid and slept for two hours. Then, would she still have the energy to work when she was not sleeping?
"Hong'er, my Hong'er is here for my father." At the stalemate, a man rushed over from outside the crowd, ran and shouted, and tears flowed.
Before he could get close, he was stopped: "Stop, who is the person?"
"Hong'er, my Hong'er is inside, I don't have the one with ears. I'm her father, my poor child, let me see if it's hurt?" The man was still going in.
"She is not your child, she is a reincarnation of an evil ghost. Xiao Bei is him. His family said that my daughter and I are ominous bodies." The woman shouted at the man.
"I never said it was you, you crazy woman, you didn't watch it today. You actually drowned my Hong'er. You are such a vicious heart." The man retorted.
"You are crazy. As the chief clerk of Xuzhou Prefecture, you bought me as a maid, but then took my body away. You didn't even give me a title. You will kill her when the child is born. You, you dare to make up." The woman shouted at the top of her throat, which made others frown.
Bei looked at this and then that, and couldn't tell who was telling the truth or who was telling the lies.
Seeing that the two were still arguing, they stopped them and said, "Shu, Xu,zhou, the master, the book? Sixth, rank, official? Oh, what the official said should be true, right? Come, Lord, you come closer, yes, get closer, brother, ask."
Xiao Bei called him this, so he naturally called his biological brother Xiaohai. Xiaohai and seven others didn't jump down and walked over, including Li Jun and Pan'er.
Xiaohairen seems steady and usually does calculation questions when they have time, but among the nine children, they always get support in their words, so when they encounter trouble, Xiaobei will always miss his brother.
Xiaohai looked at the chief clerk who was standing there and was being watched, without saying a word, just looking at it, from top to bottom, from bottom to top, and when the chief clerk was trembling with his legs, he asked, "For your daughter Hong'er, have you rushed from home?"
"Yes, when I went home, I suddenly found that Hong'er was gone. I heard from the servant that the crazy woman walked towards the river in her arms and ran away regardless of her life. Unfortunately, she was still late. Thanks to your help, I am very grateful. I am..."
"What time is it now?" Xiaohai asked again without waiting for the other party to continue.
"It's three o'clock in the silence, it's almost the same." The chief clerk replied.
Xiaohai nodded and asked again: "It must be very tired to run along the road, right?"
"Tired, no, actually the lower official only thought about Hong'er. He forgot whether he was tired or not. He still cared about these things. Now he felt tired and weak all over." The chief clerk said gasping.
"Do you know why we were so coincidental today?" Xiaohai asked again.
The chief clerk shook his head and nodded again: "It must be that my Honger is lucky and has a great life, and he has met a noble person."
"Wrong, it's nine of us. Last night, we suddenly had the same dream together. Guess who did we dream about? Yan Zheng, when Hongnong was in the water, he was arrested and placed on Zhuque Street. County Magistrate Yan Zheng, who is not dead, dreamed about how he looked when he was lying. Oh, why is it so kind? Do you know?"
Xiaohai said in a reminiscent to the other party, his tone was very plain.
"The lower-ranking official has never lie, every sentence is true." The chief clerk obviously couldn't stand it.
"No one said you were lying. I have something unknown. At 3:00, you are not staying in the yamen. Why are you going home?" Xiao Hai's voice was very light when he said the previous words, but in the end he suddenly raised his voice.
The chief clerk was so scared that he sat on the ground and said hesitantly: "I, I'm in the yamen, dealing with books, booklets, booklets, going home, getting materials, right, putting them, putting them home."
"Have you put the materials in the yamen in your house? You go back to get them? Then you know the matter and come over? Then your house is close to the yamen?" Xiaohai was still asking.
"Yes, yes, close, ran, came." The chief clerk replied.
This time, Xiaohai stopped talking to the chief clerk, but turned around and said to his sister: "Xiao Bei, let's avoid it. It's too bloody and can't stand it. You can use torture."
"Why?" Xiao Bei asked, looking at the chief clerk whose face suddenly turned pale.
"Because he lies, there are still a lot of vegetable juice on his official boots, and there are also green marks on the corners of his mouth. What is the purpose of stopping the ship this time?" Xiaohai told the question on the chief clerk and asked.
"Purpose? Ah, the purpose is to deal with the cherry paste distributed in the capital and take care of it in Xuzhou, and replenish vegetables here, especially the cabbage stored in winter, and make kimchi. When you arrive in Hangzhou, you can also eat vegetables on the way.
My mother wants to eat cucumbers. The cucumbers on the boat have been stored for a long time and are not fresh enough. Because winter is not too cold, you can produce cucumbers by simply building a simple greenhouse.
Also, let the pork, chicken and other things on our boat be made into mature food in the kitchen. Our family has good craftsmanship and sell them together in Xuzhou. We buy fresh ones and put them on the boat to reserve them.”
Bei Bei calculated the purpose of staying with his fingers. After this exchange, he would not only not lose money, but instead supplement all the consumption of flowers and consumption along the way. He originally planned to go all the way to do business.
When people watching the fun around listened to the conversation between Xiaobei and the others, many people sighed that they are Zhang Xiaobao's younger brother and sister. They have to make money along the way when they go out. Even if they have been separated from their families in the future, they don't have to worry about starving to death.
The chief clerk was stunned when he heard this, looked at his official boots, wiped his mouth again, and his hands began to tremble.
Xiaohai took the speech and said, "Yes, so he, the chief clerk, didn't stay in any yamen. He ran to the dock and hid next to him, and did not forget to grab the cucumbers sent by the people.
He either wants to spy on information, worry about our purpose, or find an opportunity to meet us, but no matter which one it is, it proves that he is lying.
Also, when he spoke, he looked at us differently than the woman's eyes. He was looking at us, but the woman was looking at the children. We were so attractive? So terrible? If you don't do bad things, you won't be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door. Why is General Hu Hu not afraid of us?
If something happens to us, when our father sees us, the emperor will stop us. What will our father react?"
"I will be very anxious. Even if I can't come over, I have to keep looking around. If it's my brother and sister, someone will kill someone if they dare to stop me. Oh, I know, there is another person on Zhuque Street. Let's avoid it." Xiao Bei pointed to the chief clerk's hand and said angrily.
"I'm guilty, I'm guilty, I confess. I want to find an opportunity to get close to you and get some benefits. The children's affairs are my housework, so I can't treat me like this."
The chief clerk completely gave up his luck. He didn't expect that Xiaohai could be so powerful, without any unnecessary means, look at people, ask a few words and then everything will be clear.
Xiao Bei sneered, waved his hand, and the person who was about to execute the execution stopped.
Xiao Bei walked around the chief clerk and said, "I'm not interested in knowing what your surname is. I don't care about your family affairs or not. We are the inspectors of the Tang Dynasty and patrol the place on behalf of the emperor. If you lie, you are the crime of deceiving the emperor. If you are caught by us, you will be more than five levels of crime.
I don’t care at all if you live or die, and I won’t convict you here. Go back and ask the escort officials in this state to take you to the capital, and you can fight with the Ministry of Personnel, Dali Temple, and the Censorate yourself.”
After throwing this sentence, Xiao Bei turned around and walked towards the ship. He was about to go back. Xiao Yuan signaled the maid to take the woman with him and followed her back.
No one went to touch the chief clerk again. He was very free for the time being. He didn't care whether he ran away or not. That meant he was asked to go to the government office to collect the crime and then be taken away. If you have the courage, you can run away, and then the arrester document will be included.
After a while of silence around, loud shouts rang out one after another. The people truly felt the strength of Xiao Bei and others, and sighed that the girl was born without ears.
"He is in charge, this money..." The old woman on the fishing boat still put her hands on her chest, covered the 100-month piece of money and asked the old man.
The old man thought for a while and said, "The money must be spent. Change it to a big boat, make a few clothes, and prepare for the monks. At that time, the money will be paid together. One hundred coins cannot be bloomed separately. If the money is found, the money that is not given by Xiao Bei, it will not work, and the coins will be passed on to the family."
The son and the daughter-in-law of the breast child nodded at the same time, agreeing deeply.
*******
Xiao Bei, who returned to the boat, drank a bowl of ginger candy water, and ran to see the child without ears.
The child was hiding in the mother's arms to feed her breasts. The woman was more stable and she had a bright look in her eyes. While feeding the child, she asked the maid to help her apply a hot towel to her face. She told the maid that she wanted to eat boiled eggs and pork elbow soup.
