Lucky Star Gao Zhao

Chapter 22

It has been three months since the leg was injured, but Gao Wenlin said that it would be better to remove the splint in half a year. Although Gao Zhao felt uncomfortable, she agreed.

When the doctor came every month, Gao Zhao would take a good bath and put on a new splint.

One day the sun was just right, and under the protection of the pandan and spring bamboo, I came to stand in the middle of the yard dutifully, enjoying the beauty of early spring.

Hearing footsteps, I saw my aunt hurried in from the outside with a dustpan in her hand.

"Zhaoer, where is your father?"

"Going out, aunt, there is something urgent."

Gao Cui put down the dustpan, said: "Let's talk about it later." He left in a hurry.

The two younger brothers have both gone to school, and no one went out to have a look. Gao Zhao was curious, what's the news, and he had to excuse his father to watch the fun?
Jiang also came out and asked, "What is your aunt looking for with your father?"

Gao Zhao turned around, "I don't know, Auntie is in a hurry, something must have happened, otherwise Auntie left without talking."

After standing for a while, my feet hurt. Recently when I went out for a walk, I put all my strength on one leg. After a long time, even my hips hurt.

Come down and walk more, otherwise the circulation of the legs is too poor, and the legs are swollen. Gao Zhao asked his father to make crutches again, and the single crutches became double crutches.It has been three months, and the splint is not removed, but I can move around, and the crutches are good for balance and strength.

She kept walking back and forth in the courtyard, and Jiang Shi came out from time to time to have a look, with two servant girls guarding her sides, and Gao Zhao said that even if she fell, they would not be able to protect her, they were too young.

An hour later, Gao Wenlin and his siblings came back together. Seeing Gao Zhao basking in the sun in the courtyard, they also sat down in the courtyard. Jiang came out with Qiaolan in his arms.

Gao Wenlin took the youngest daughter, and the couple sat next to each other.

"Juanniang, let me tell you about what happened just now." The eldest aunt looked excited.

"Didn't I go to Wu's house to deliver something? I was surprised when I saw someone on the street saying that Aunt Liu's youngest son, Shizhu, had been beaten. That Shizhu was a little dumbfounded. He didn't cause trouble. Aunt Liu is also a real person, so I said I went to see what was going on, and when I got there, I saw a big man grabbing a stone pillar and was beating there. Aunt Liu also came after hearing the letter, and rushed to protect it. After listening to the people around, I knew what was going on."

Xianglan Chunzhu brought tea for everyone, and the eldest aunt took it and drank it in one go, "The stone pillar picked up a bag in the latrine on the back street, and there were silver taels in it, and he told his mother when he got back, Aunt Liu told him to go to the latrine Waiting, maybe the person who lost it will come back to look for it, so Shizhu went obediently. Sure enough, a person came and said that he had lost the silver, and Shizhu returned it to him, but the person opened it and said that it was less. His was 30 taels. There were only ten taels in it, so the stone pillar must have been taken, but the stone pillar said no, there were only so many, so the man hit the stone pillar."

Gao Zhao said anxiously: "Why is that man so wicked? How could Uncle Liu's family lie?"

"That's right, the people in the neighborhood rushed over after seeing it, saying that Shizhu was honest and wouldn't do such a thing, but that man got angry and insisted on reporting to the official. When I saw it, he rushed back to find your father, didn't he take a rest today?" I asked your father to talk to Shi Zhu. Aunt Liu’s family is honest, but you were injured and brought two pieces of sesame seed cakes to see you. Let’s remember. Besides, that person must have looked at Shi Zhu in a daze, so he just wanted to see you. Blackmail the Liu family."

"Where then?"

"Later, when we arrived at the Yamen, the county magistrate heard what the man said, and asked Aunt Liu, his mother and son, as well as those who watched the fun. I went too, and I said that the Liu family was wronged."

"Auntie did a good job!" Gao Zhao stretched out his thumb to Auntie, and Gao Cui looked smug.

"Zhao'er guess how the county magistrate decided?"

Gao Zhao shook his head, and the aunt slapped her hands, making her jump, "The county magistrate asked the man, are you sure you lost 30 taels? The man said yes, and the county magistrate said yes, since the lost 30 taels, the one Shizhu picked up is not If you lost it, you go to the bag you lost. If Shizhu picked up someone else’s, take it home. If someone says that you lost money, let him come to the Yamen to report to the official for judgment. It costs five liang of silver to accompany Shizhu, if you beat someone, you can't beat him for nothing."

Gao Zhao slapped his hands fiercely after hearing this, and said with a smile: "The county magistrate's sentence is good, so it should be sentenced like this."

"Don't say you slapped your hands, everyone in the hall knelt down and kowtowed to the lord, saying that the lord is the master of Qingtian. It's just that your father came in after the sentence, and didn't catch up to watch."

Gao Zhao felt that the county magistrate was pretty good, and the reputation in the village was good. He judged the case a few times and it was fair. The Wan family son and his concubine were beaten by this county magistrate. Zi asked Yinzi to bribe him. If he was greedy, he could release Wanjiazi and his concubine. However, the county magistrate got angry and beat the two in public. He imprisoned the concubine and sentenced him to a year. After that, Wanjiazi asked Yinzi to take care of his concubine. room, which implicated the people below to reap the benefits, so he turned a blind eye.

Gao Wenlin also laughed at the side, "That man is a merchant. He came here for a few months and wanted to bully the local people. If he was really greedy for his money, why would he return it? The Liu family is an honest family known to all neighbors. Naturally, the villagers all turn to the Liu family, and adults understand."

The aunt laughed and said: "Then the man changed the subject and said that what he lost was ten taels. He remembered wrongly and he wanted the ten taels, but the county magistrate ordered him to be kicked out and asked the yamen servant to follow him to get it." Five taels of compensation to the Liu family, it deserves it, why do you say that profiteers and profiteers want to blackmail everyone they see."

Gao Zhao will not participate in this issue, but Gao Wenlin said: "Not all businessmen are profiteers. Those who open doors in our county to do business are all earning hard money honestly. Only a few people have black hearts, even scholars. Scum, it’s not that there’s a saying called gentle scum, there’s also a person with a heart who is mostly a scholar who acts righteously and a person who slaughters a dog, if this person does evil, it doesn’t matter whether he is a businessman or a scholar.”

Yo!That's what my father said, that's what happened.

"Father is right, you can't kill one or two people with a pole. In our county, merchants donate most of the donations. How can crop growers have extra money to donate?"

Gao Cui pursed her lips and said, "Do they dare not donate? If you want to do business here, you don't want to curry favor with the government? Otherwise, if you come to investigate every two days, the business won't go on."

"But there is no business, where do we buy things? We can't make everything at home, just the cloth, the oily rice noodles to eat, the books, pens and ink, etc., don't we all have to buy them outside?"

After hearing what the niece said, Gao Cui didn't continue, but the look in her eyes was also disdainful, which made Gao Zhao wonder, the aunt didn't like the businessman, so there must be something inside, she must have a chance to ask.

"I'm going to get some food. I'm glad that it's time for the two brothers to leave school."

Because Gao Zhao always called his younger brother happy, his family gradually followed him by calling him that.

Seeing her father at home, Gao Zhao wanted to let go and walk away. The two maids were there, and she was always afraid that they would fall and they would not be able to support her. Jiang Shi hugged Qiaoyun, Gao Wenlin got up and helped clamp the crutches, and Gao Zhao began to practice walking. , but it also landed on one foot, and the injured leg dared not walk on the ground.

　Its Zero Essay:
　　There are no recommended songs in this book.

　　Let's start with our folk song first.

　　When I was in elementary school, I heard a folk song from my teacher. I liked it very much, but I didn’t dare to ask about it. I only remembered a line in the lyrics: Liang Shanbo is Zhu Yingtai.

　　After that, I liked to listen to some folk songs from all over the world, including Orchid Flower. The lyrics in the folk songs of Loess Gaopo are the most straightforward and enthusiastic.

　　Occasionally, I heard the Midu folk song sung by Long Piaopiao, and I immediately thought of the folk song I heard when I was a child. If you have seen the good wife, remember, I once wrote it in the article, and the heroine used this little tune to tease the sleepy robin pheasant (that is, starling).

　　Yi~~~~~Where~~~~~, mountain to mountain, cliff to cliff, bees to pick flowers from deep mountains, bees originally died for picking flowers, Liangshanbo is Zhu Yingtai.

　　Yi~~~~~where~~~~~, Liang Shanbo is Zhu Yingtai, Yi~~~~~where~~~~~
　　……

　　Next is a local folk song "Youth Dance" in this land that I love. There are too many versions, so I will post some lyrics.

　　The sun goes down, tomorrow morning it still climbs up

　　The flowers are withered and they will still bloom tomorrow
　　My youth is gone
　　My youth bird will never come back
　　My youth bird will never come back
　　other like that

　　other like that

　　My youthful bird never comes back...

　　::::::::

　　This article was written when the heroine was 13 years old, recalling and commemorating the youth that never came back.
