The sound of horseshoes stopped at the gate of Zhang's mansion. Before the horse stopped, Liu Er jumped off the horse and knocked on the door vigorously: "Ma'am, ma'am! Yitong was knocked out by that evil Hu Xueting! Open the door quickly! Uncle! Go get the doctor!"
There was a panic in the door, and Uncle Fugui opened the door eagerly, crying, "Yitong! Yitong!" Zhang Yitong tightly closed his eyes on the horseback, still unconscious.
Many people in the alley opened their doors, some watched carefully, and some even pointed.
"Hu Xueting stunned Zhang Yitong?" It shouldn't be, it depends on how kind Madam Zhang treats them." "Oh, it seems that Hu Xueting is too murderous, and Zhang Yitong can't suppress it." All kinds of chirping voices are flying around quickly.
Mrs. Zhang came out, her face was not very good, she said sharply: "Why are you crying! Bring it in! Close the door!"
Qin Qiong carefully lifted Zhang Xutuo from his horse, and carried them into Zhang's house with Liu Er. A group of cavalry guards hurriedly followed in, and the door of Zhang's house was slammed shut.
The neighbors' gossip did not stop because of the closed gate of Zhang's house, but became louder and more unscrupulous: "Hu Xueting and Zhang Yi have turned against each other. This is because the wings are hard. I have to teach me a lesson?" "Madam Zhang may be in trouble." " "Does Zhang Yitong still have the face to face people?"
In Zhang Zhai, the moment the door closed, Zhang Xu opened his eyes humbly, turned over, and put his ears firmly against the crack of the door. After a long time, he turned his head in satisfaction, and tiptoed carefully into the living room, and closed it again. After opening the door, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Hu Xueting hits really hard. When he kicked me off the horse, he almost broke my old bones!" Zhang Xutuo complained, he hit so hard, he really wanted to turn his face and curse at others. Zhang Xiuwen hurried over and rubbed his back carefully.
"That's right, Hu Xueting struck too hard." Qin Qiong also complained, rubbing his body all the time, "I almost thought I was going to be hacked to death with that sword!"
Although the two of them kept cursing, their faces were smiling, and they were even a little complacent. This scene must have been wonderfully performed, and they could almost be movie kings.
Liu Er sneered, and he dared to call the film king even with his scumbag acting skills: "When Yitong scolded Hu Xueting angrily, he was pretending to be angry, gnashing his teeth, but there was no anger in his eyes; when he fell down, it was even more fake, so He was slightly injured, but he didn't get up immediately, the lance he was holding in his hand was fake, he swept it casually, and he didn't understand the basic movements to prevent the enemy from approaching; his acting was even worse when he was pointed at the throat by the sword, not only the eyes didn't look like it should Some are in deep pain, and even their faces are calm, and this almost passable acting is considered acting?" He snorted, almost spat, and turned to look at Qin Qiong again.
"And you, when you panic, you just opened your mouth wide and your eyes widened? You can't act well at the most basic level, how dare you say anything else?" Liu Er didn't even bother to dig into Qin Qiong's poor performance, and the expression on Qiuqiu was embarrassing It really convinced him to show off his acting skills.
Zhang Xutuo and Qin Qiong looked at each other, and they understood Liu Er's mood very well. Of the three of them, he didn't have a big role in the scene.
"Next time, I will definitely ask Hu Xueting to give you more roles." Zhang Xutuo said softly to Liu Er.
"My father is still very good at acting." Zhang Xiuwen seized the opportunity to flatter him. Zhang Xutuo was very useful, smiling, looking up at the ceiling, no acting skills, being an official.
Someone called outside the door: "Zhang Yitong, please open the door." Everyone in the Zhang family looked at each other and recognized that the voice was the neighbor Mrs. Zhao.
Zhang Xutuo quickly fell down on the chair, Uncle Fu hurriedly went to get the traumatic medicine, Zhang Yuning ran to get a towel, and applied it on Zhang Xutuo's forehead, Mrs. Zhang took ginger to wipe his eyes, and then wiped Zhang Xutuo's backhand Already, Qin Qiong clutched his chest and groaned loudly. A group of people got busy. Uncle Gui looked around and saw that the arrangements had been made properly, so he went to open the door.
"Mrs. Zhao, I'm afraid my house is not suitable for receiving guests today." Uncle Gui blocked the door with tears in his eyes.
Mrs. Zhao pushed the uncle away with all her strength: "I have a magic medicine, which is specially used to treat Zhangxu camel." Hearing that there was something in her words, the uncle felt cold at first. Mrs. Zhao entered the door and took a few steps. Seeing that Uncle Gui was still in a daze, she shouted: "The door is still closed." Uncle Gui was even more shocked, and hurriedly closed the door.
In the hall, Zhang Xutuo was weak with tears in his eyes, and tremblingly stretched out his hand to Mrs. Zhao, trembling for a long time: "Mrs. Zhao" Mrs. Zhang's eyes were red, and she covered half of her face with a handkerchief.
Mrs. Zhao didn't sit down either, she stood calmly in the middle of the hall, just staring at Zhang Xutuo. Zhang Xutuo's heart was a little cold, and he coughed vigorously: "Nie Zi! Raising tigers is a problem I didn't expect thatharm. "
Yang Shu never thought that he would be able to hide the truth from other officials. Who in the court is not a good man? Yang Huo himself is a super actor and suspicious. How could he be deceived by such a small trick? The purpose of Yang Shu and Hu Xueting is actually to express their views to the emperor and queen.
Situ's Mansion, Zhang Xutuo, Bingzhou Road Marching Chief Administration Office, Xiao Qiwei, and Hu Xueting all fear the emperor and queen. In order to make up for Hu Xueting's unscrupulous words, they spared no expense of time and energy to put on a big show , its feelings can be expressed, and its heart can face the sun and the moon. The emperor and empress must have smiled with satisfaction, and they had all the face inside, and then they either acted magnanimously to give Situ Mansion a face, or beat Hu Xueting a little, and let it go.
"From this point of view, Mrs. Zhao is also a smart person." Qin Qiong said, Mrs. Zhao's behavior is also a statement.
"Don't make people's hearts so filthy." Mrs. Zhang blamed, then turned around and asked Zhang Xutuo, "When Hu Xueting killed the orphanage, were you really angry, or were you acting?"
Zhang Xutuo was silent for a while, and said seriously: "Half-truth, half-false." Zhang Xutuo felt a little sad for the group of people in the orphanage on the whole, and was angry with them. For the sake of state affairs, the middle-aged family buried their bones in the battlefield, leaving only orphans and widowed mothers. Naturally, it is extremely unfortunate. Whether they are superiors or ordinary people, they are very sympathetic, but they did not expect these orphans to support them. With good intentions and good intentions, he did his duty, opened his mouth when he came to eat, stretched out his hand when he came to clothes, and even picked and picked, took it for granted, and even slipped quickly to hooligans and even bandits, which made Zhang Xutuo and even the officers and soldiers of the Bingzhou Road Marching Army Chief Administration Office They were very disdainful and angry.
"Are those people pitiful? Poor. But what does it have to do with me? Poor, if you are superior, you can kill people and set fires, and you can ask me to pay for them. I sacrificed for him?" Hu Xueting retorted in this way when he was in Situ Mansion Zhang Xutuo, Zhang Xutuo is very angry that Hu Xueting's three views are not correct, a little sympathy, a little bit of everyone for me, I don't understand for everyone. But Yang Shu agreed with Hu Xueting's plan, Zhang Xutuo could only remain silent.
"Killing chickens and scaring monkeys, big waves wash the sand." Qin Qiong said hurriedly, he agreed with Hu Xueting's approach, the people in the orphanage were so lawless that they dared to attack the court officials, if they were not severely punished, they might really rebel next time. "As long as the rest of the people are not implicated, the government will not do anything to them." Strictly follow the law, it's that simple.
Mrs. Zhang smiled and went to the back house, leaving Zhang Xutuo and Qin Qiong and Liu Er to discuss the direction of the court.
Zhang Yuning and Zhang Xiuwen waited anxiously for the news, not knowing whether such a big incident this time was a disaster or a blessing.
"Don't worry. From my point of view, this orphanage has come to an end. I'm afraid it will close a large number of people. All unqualified people will be eliminated. Only orphans and widows with good conduct who really need help will be left. It will be to provide a job, not to support for nothing." Mrs. Zhang sees the future very clearly.
"From now on, you can eat mutton." Mrs. Zhang smiled. In the future, there will be no need for second-class soldiers such as Zhang Xutuo, Qin Qiong, and Liu to subsidize the orphanage.
Zhang Yuning and Zhang Xiuwen stared at Mrs. Zhang in surprise, not knowing why they said such cold words.
Mrs. Zhang looked at Zhang Yuning and Zhang Xiuwen, and said seriously: "Take out all your money and feed and clothe the poor, while you and your family can barely eat and clothe yourself. This behavior is very kind, but it is not worth promoting.
Little children.
The circle of people is from the inside to the outside. When one's family is happy, then friends, then acquaintances, and then strangers. If this order is right, then life will be happy and fulfilling, with immeasurable merit. If it is wrong, this compassion is only on others, but it is hard to say how much of it is for outsiders to see, or for reputation.
I am just an ordinary person. I only want to help those in need when I have enough energy to ensure that my family is fed and clothed. When I saw those people lying on the grass and sleeping late, waiting to get the money my family saved from their teeth, there was no sympathy in my heart, only anger and dissatisfaction.
It seems that I am a selfish villain after all. "
Madam Zhang looked at the stunned Zhang Yuning and Zhang Xiuwen, and smiled: "This is what Hu Xueting told me before. I knew at that time that Hu Xueting far surpassed your father."
