Chapter 18 Eavesdropping
But when Zhang Jiuyan left the house, it was already dark at this time, and it gradually became quieter and fewer people outside.
Zhang Jiuyan quietly cat-chested, walked towards Zhang Tianshou's home lightly.
There are only seventy or eighty households in Zhangjia Village, not big, and they arrived soon.
Zhang Jiuyan didn't dare to get too close, so he found a place outside Zhang Tianshou's house, secretly looked at it, and carefully observed.
At this time, two oil lamps at Zhang Tianshou's home illuminated the entire main hall, making it even more conspicuous in the darkness.
In the main hall, only Zhang Tianshou and the constable were drinking, and Zhang Tianshou's wife and children were not there.
I think it was because I was sent away to avoid disturbing them.
Zhang Jiuyan narrowed his eyes and saw that the detective was wearing a gray-black hat, a long blue jacket, a red off-shoulder armor on the outside, and a blue silk webbing tied around his waist.
It was indeed a constable costume, which matched the image in Zhang Jiuyan's body's original memory.
Why don't there be a knife?
Zhang Jiuyan was puzzled, and then looked carefully and finally saw the waist knife more than two feet long on the table.
The knife was placed on the table. Although Zhang Jiuyan was far away, he still felt different and felt a majestic atmosphere.
But soon Zhang Jiuyan adjusted his mood and said to himself: "It's just a cavalry knife. Look, you're nervous. If you see a musket or cannon in the future, you won't scare you to death."
Once his mood was adjusted, Zhang Jiuyan's mood was different again.
Looking along the table, Zhang Jiuyan didn't see clearly and didn't know what dishes were there.
But there are at least five or six dishes, and looking at the two of them eating oily mouths, they must be good meat dishes.
Zhang Jiuyan couldn't help swallowing, and he was drooling at the delicious food on the table.
Since I came here, I have been blanched with black bread every day, and my mouth faded out of my mouth. I don’t know when I can eat a meat dish and a tooth-killing ceremony.
"Brother, that boy Zhang Jiuyan is lawless, you have to support me."
Zhang Tianshou filled the bowl in front of the detective with wine, looking as if he was pleased.
"Hahaha,,,"
The detective didn't care and laughed, "But there is a local dog in the countryside, what's the big deal? If you are unhappy, now after drinking, I will take the local dog away. You can torture him as much as you like."
The constable is named Zhou Quan, who is an ordinary constable in the county government. He has no status in the county government government, but he is powerful in the countryside.
Zhang Jiuyan could hear it clearly outside, and his heart suddenly became nervous.
At this time, I had no one to take care of myself and no money. If this constable came to arrest people, no matter whether I resisted arrest or obedience, I would not have a good end.
Zhang Jiuyan can leave, the problem is that he still has his parents and sister, and he can run away by himself. What should they do?
After hearing Zhou Quan's words, Zhang Tianshou felt at ease and smiled: "There's no hurry. When you go to catch him now, people will think that I can't beat him and are afraid of him."
Anyway, there are more than ten days left, and the money his father owes me is about to expire. When he is arrested, no one can speak."
Zhou Quan ate a piece of fat meat into his mouth, and said, "I'm going to be with you."
"Thank you, brother."
"Who will be with us brothers?"
Zhang Tianshou did not think that Zhang Jiuyan had the ability to pay back the money. You should know that this was just two taels. Ordinary people had a hundred documents, and they were a large amount. Who could easily take it out?
Not to mention that it is two taels of silver, a total of two thousand yuan.
Looking at these ten miles of villages, none of them can be found except for the gentry and the village chief’s houses.
After hearing this, Zhang Jiuyan felt much more relieved. He knew that Zhang Tianshou still wanted to be shameless and was afraid that others would say that he could not fight him, so he asked the constable to come and get the person.
There are still twelve days left before the bank expires, and at least in these twelve days, I am safe.
Then Zhang Jiuyan squatted outside and eavesdropped for a long time until they were both drunk and didn't say anything important, just bragging and spanking.
At this time, there was no need for Zhang Jiuyan to eavesdrop on him anymore and tiptoed away secretly.
Walking on the small road in the village with deep feet and shallow feet, Zhang Jiuyan became more and more anxious.
This Zhang Tianshou was indeed the same as he expected. As long as he couldn't pay back the money after the expiration, he would be arrested and went to jail.
It seems that he opened the county jail.
"Pooh."
Zhang Jiuyan spat hard on the ground and cursed: "I think it's pretty beautiful, I won't let you get what you want."
Zhang Jiuyan did not go home, but went directly to Zhang Guicheng's home.
At this time, the rickshaw built by Zhang Guicheng was Zhang Jiuyan's only hope.
"Ba,ba,ba,ba,ba,"
Zhang Jiuyan knocked on the door of Zhang Guicheng's house.
"Who?"
"Uncle San, it's me, Jiuyan."
"Wait a minute."
It was not long since Zhang Guicheng opened the door and invited Zhang Jiuyan into the house.
As soon as he entered, Zhang Jiuyan saw the already-built rickshaw.
Zhang Jiuyan's eyes lit up, and he subconsciously looked up, touched here, and looked there, and was still trotting on the spot in Zhang Guicheng's limited home.
The wheels rotate very flexibly and feel good.
Zhang Guizheng saw that Zhang Jiuyan was satisfied and happy, "How is it? If there is something unsatisfactory, I'll change it for you."
Zhang Jiuyan smiled and said, "Very good, thank you, Uncle San. After making money, I will invite Uncle San to drink."
“Hahaha,,,”
Zhang Guicheng laughed a few times, obviously very satisfied with his works.
After repeated thanks, Zhang Jiuyan took the rickshaw home.
As soon as they arrived at home, Zhang Jiuyan's parents were attracted by the novel rickshaw and couldn't help but look at it.
Zhang Jiuyan's mother asked, "Jiuyan, is this what you are talking about a rickshaw?"
Zhang Jiuyan nodded, "Yes, mom, you sit up and try it. I'll pull you outside and walk around a few times."
"No, it's dark,"
"It's okay, isn't there still moonlight? You can see clearly."
Zhang Jiuyan happily pulled her mother and sat up.
In any case, this is the first thing he invented in this era. Although it is not epoch-making and high-end, Zhang Jiuyan still hopes that the first person to enjoy is his relatives.
Zhang Jiuyan's mother couldn't resist Zhang Jiuyan's enthusiasm and got on the rickshaw.
Then Zhang Jiuyan pulled his mother to trot on the small road in the village for a while.
Zhang Jiuyan's father was also very novel. He followed along the way, holding a rickshaw in his hand, and was very envious of Zhang Jiuyan's mother sitting on it.
After walking around and returning to the same place, Zhang Jiuyan asked anxiously to his mother: "Mom, how is it? How does it feel when you take this rickshaw?"
My mother is the first experiencer of the rickshaw, so Zhang Jiuyan is of course very concerned about her mother's personal experience.
The experience feels like the key to whether the rickshaw can succeed.
