Chapter 137 Dead without a burial place
At the gate of the villa, everyone said goodbye.
Wei Canyu patted Zhang Yang on the shoulder with carelessness: "You are also going to be the assistant to the nobles, clean up yourself. Look at your cloak, the hole I had when I saw you last time, but it has not been sewn yet. Is your virtuous girl a blind man or a lazy donkey?"
Everyone took a breath and stared at him with wide eyes.
Zhang Yang was shocked and hurriedly turned around and touched: "The hole? Where is it?"
Wei Canyu slapped his shoulder blade: "Here! I can't see it myself, but others must see it!"
Chen Zhuo smiled and called him: "Mr. Wei, we have to go in to see my mother." He nodded politely to Zhang Yang: "Mr. Zhang, the mountains are high and the rivers are long, please take care of yourself."
Zhang Yang hurriedly left Wei Canyu and bowed to her: "Yes, Miss Second, there will be a date later."
Chen Zhuo put down the curtain of the carriage, sent someone to go in from the side, and rushed directly to the second gate.
Wei Canyu hurriedly patted him again and ran into the carriage quickly: "Hey hey hey, I'm not shy about talking to Xiao Zhang, why are you urging me?"
Zhang Yang looked at Wei Canyu's back, who was even more desolate and casual, and felt lost when he looked at his old clothes that were even more desolate than himself.
It was already afternoon when I got home.
Zhang E got up and was sleeping at the afternoon, her pink face turned toward the fire. When she saw him coming back, she smiled like a flower: "Brother, where have you been? Did you come back after buying food?"
Only then did Zhang Yang feel hungry. He thought that everyone had forgotten to eat after working all the way.
"Oh, never. Is there any food at home? If not, let Mama Wen go and buy some. I'm a little hungry."
Zhang E hurriedly touched a few copper plates from her purse and called the old wet nurse to buy some pancakes: "It's better to get it back with hot."
He took Zhang Yang's cloak, shook it casually and hung it on the shelf.
Zhang Yang stood next to the basin rack, rolled up his sleeves, and looked back at her.
But he saw a small hole in the cloak that was dazzling. Zhang E's eyes stopped on it for a moment and turned away as if nothing had happened.
He lowered his head and washed his hands, but Zhang Yang didn't want to speak.
Zhang E's cheerful and charming voice sounded: "Brother, where have you been today? I came back and asked my grandma, she said, "You are going to help Miss Chen? Why, the dignified servant lady, don't even care about you for a meal?"
Zhang Yang's subordinate paused, thought for a while, raised his body, and said, "I went to tell Miss II yesterday that I broke the contract."
Zhang E had just straightened her spine and was about to sit down by the table in a elegant manner. When she heard this, she turned around and pretended to be busy: "Is that right? What did she say?"
Zhang Yang stared at her back: "Miss II said, she can understand."
Zhang E's shoulders suddenly loosened and she smiled and turned around: "She grew up in the fame and fortune fair in the capital, and she has dealt with the third prince. Naturally, she knows that we have to do this."
Zhang Yang wiped his hands, walked to the bed, took out the clothes Chen Zhuo gave the day before, and handed them to her: "This is given by the second lady, please help me put them away."
When Zhang E saw that it was a bag, she looked happy and hurriedly opened the bag. Seeing that it was two pieces of clothes, she frowned and flipped over, looked up in confusion and asked, "Where is the money?"
Zhang Yang looked at her coldly.
Zhang E's face turned red suddenly with her brother's contemptuous gaze. She bit her lower lip lightly, lowered her head deeply, and whispered in a weak way: "Every time I go to another house to say goodbye..." As soon as she said that, she was very upset and choked, and she was panicked for a moment, but she didn't know how to explain. She stuttered: "Chen Jie once said, the second lady is stingy..."
Zhang Yang took out a piece of paper from his arms, walked to the table, and slapped it on the table with a snap.
Zhang E was so scared that she almost jumped up. Her shoulders shook, she looked down at the paper, and her eyes widened again in an instant, and her greed looked at her: "One hundred coins! So much?!"
My sister is indeed full of fame, fortune, vanity and vanity.
Zhang Yang took a deep breath: "Today I introduced Wei Canyu to her, and the second lady immediately took Brother Wei into the Shen family courtyard."
Zhang E was shocked again: "Brother, that's Wei Canyu! He is very talented and uses all means. If Minister Chen and the Third Prince meet each other in the future, he will know that you are so profound that you have not created a strong enemy for yourself in vain?"
Zhang Yang looked at Zhang E, and his expression turned indifferent: "A'e, you have always admired Brother Wei. I encouraged me to interact with him every day, but I never advised me to recommend the academy chief for him. Is it because I was afraid that he would steal my limelight?"
Speaking of this kind of human speculation, strategy, power and deceit, Zhang E has always been righteous and unscrupulous. She opened her eyes wide and analyzed carefully: "Of course it's true! Besides, he offended the head of the Shen family before, and even the young master of the Shen family who admired him very much did not compete for him to have a place in the academy.
"It can be seen that he is an uncontrollable character in Wuxing Shen's heart. The brother really recommended him. Whenever he appears in the academy, he will definitely be amazing. At that time, he will be in power and no one will remember the virtue of his brother's recommendation; if he offends others, the Shen family will vent his anger on his brother..."
Zhang Yang lowered his eyes: "Miss Second Miss promised Brother Wei to take care of food, accommodation, clothes, shoes and socks, and money for buying books, with a monthly salary of 20 jin."
Zhang E choked.
This, so much!
Is the Minister's Mansion so rich?
Or do officials have money?
The jade bracelet on the hand of the Duke's Mansion is said to be worth thousands of cents...
The voice continued: "Miss II also said that when Brother Wei wants to take the exam, she will be responsible for introducing the subject as the chief examiner."
He raised his head and quietly looked at his own sister who had been strictly demanding since he was a child: "Brother Wei just took all his books to the Shen family courtyard and had already lived in. You know, he only had two pairs of shoes. He had thrown away one pair today."
Zhang E became more and more panicked: "Brother, you have all these! Who is the third prince? After all, the Shen family is a minister, but he is the king..."
Zhang Yang shouted, "Stop it! The Empress has two legitimate sons, and the third prince will never think of being the king in his entire life!"
Zhang E had to cry aggrievedly: "Brother, I have worked hard, just to have a good starting point for you, the Zhang family has a good reputation..."
Zhang Yang looked at her for a long time, collapsed his shoulders and said lightly: "The 100-ton coins given by the second lady were originally asked to buy you clothes for your return home. Put them away. After you go back, I will find a wealthy family for you, and I will give you the money to do your dowry. I don't want the old house or the ancestral land, so I will leave it for you. After you get married, I will go to Beijing again."
Zhang E cried and raised her head suddenly, and she couldn't help but scream: "Brother! My appearance is so talented, what's worse than those noble ladies? My destination should be in a high-ranking family. I deserve all the wealth and glory in this world!"
The blue veins on the back of Zhang Yang's hand burst out and he slowly stood up: "Don't think about it. I won't let you get implicated. I'm afraid of death without a place to bury."
