Early Ming Dynasty: Turning Clouds and Rains into New Learning Saints

Chapter 6 What's Wrong

It seems like I have to go to bed and lie down for a while!
Zhu Jingjing blushed when she thought of this!
It's okay if you think about it, but if you really want to do this, it's impossible to kill her!

Perhaps, if the fourth brother doesn't say that he is a talent, then he should look for his advantages and strengths. If he can be valued by his father or the prince's brother and say a few good words, maybe there will be something to do?

Thinking like this, Zhu Jingjing felt that she had found a feasible way to strive for her future happiness. She felt happy and urged Zhu Di to leave quickly.

When a group of them approached the city gate, they found three bullock carts in front of them. The flatbed carts were piled with things, and a group of country men were pushing them out.

Because I walked slowly, the busy roads were slightly blocked.A group of people who were affected spoke impatiently.

"Where did this country bumpkin come from? Did he pick up money and buy so many things at once?"

"You look like a nouveau riche at first glance. Good guy, you have oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, pots and pans, and pork. There are so many things. What are you doing?"

"Why do these three big cars cost more than a hundred taels of silver, right? Such a lavish spender must not have earned his hard-earned money!"

"..."

Zhu Di listened to the words coming from around him and looked at the full three-ox cart with a little contempt in his heart.

In the early years of Hongwu, supplies were scarce, and it was absolutely rare to see such a lavish purchase of things.

Either it's like those people say, people who get rich for nothing don't know how hard it is to make money, or they are very rich and won't even look at more than 100 taels of silver.Judging from the attire of those driving the cattle carts, I guess they belong to the former group.

While he was thinking about it, suddenly, Qiu Ju, who was beside Zhu Jingjing, exclaimed in a low voice, "Miss, this seems to be the one we met yesterday. The one over there is the one with the bird hanging on his body!"

When Zhu Jingjing heard this, she immediately looked along her fingers, and sure enough she saw a man as thin as a monkey, happily pretending to push a cart. He was not the same guy who had a lot of birds hanging on his body yesterday!

Upon seeing this, Zhu Jingjing immediately understood that the crazy shopping in front of her probably used the money that her fourth brother gave them yesterday!

Is this all going to be spent the next day?So unable to keep money?
What about that person?
Zhu Jingjing hurriedly looked for someone, but did not find that person!

At this time, Zhu Di also knew the situation and suddenly became a little unhappy.

He originally thought that the man yesterday was a talent, and he had just praised him in front of his eldest sister, but the result was good, more than 100 taels of silver were not covered, so he was going to spend it all?
How can a person who is so impatient and unable to hold on to money be a talent?If I become an official in the future, I'm afraid I will be a corrupt official, right?As soon as I have some money, I start enjoying it!

Thinking like this, Zhu Di was very unhappy. He turned to look at Zhu Jingjing and said, "I don't think there is any need to contact him. If you feel sorry for him, give him another 500 taels, and then everything will be settled. Otherwise, once he is raped like this If a greedy person gets involved, he might start talking nonsense, and no amount of money can keep his mouth shut!"

Zhu Jingjing's first impression of Zhang Yifan was very good. Therefore, she still didn't want to believe it, so she answered Zhu Di: "His family may be very poor and needs these things. If he is rich, he can buy some. Is this wrong?"

Zhu Di was a little speechless when he heard that. He pointed at the things on the three oxcarts and said, "Look at those things that normal people lack. I think most of them will be wasted!"

"You're not him, how did you know it would be a waste?" After hearing this, Zhu Jingjing persisted and replied to Zhu Di, but her confidence was a bit lacking, so she motioned to Qiu Ju to call Daniel over.

At this time, the three bullock carts had passed through the city gate and stopped at the edge of the road.When the big cow saw the barking and recognized the person, he immediately ran over happily to greet him.Zhu Jingjing didn't care about anything else and just asked: "What about him? Why didn't you see him?"

"???" Daniel heard a question mark on his forehead, looked left and right, then scratched the back of his head and said, "Who is it?"

Until then, Zhu Jingjing suddenly remembered that she didn't even know the name of her savior!

After discovering this, she was very ashamed!
So she quickly said, "It's the man who saved me. What's his name?"

"Ah, him!" Daniel suddenly understood after hearing this, and quickly replied, "His name is Zhang Yifan. He is still in the city and went to the blacksmith shop to order something."

When Zhu Di heard this, he said with a somewhat ugly face: "He bought all these things, right? Didn't he spend all yesterday's money on this trip to the city? Do you need so many things?"

When he gets angry, his aura is immediately apparent.

Daniel was a little afraid of Zhu Di, and his enthusiasm immediately cooled down a lot, and he quickly replied: "No, Brother Fan bought this for the people in the village. If anyone is in need of something, he will buy it. It is not for his own use! "

"What?" Zhu Di was a little surprised when he heard this, and couldn't help but confirm, "You mean, he spent all the money on others? What about his family?"

"His family died a long time ago. He grew up taking turns eating in our village." Daniel listened and answered truthfully.

At this time in the early Ming Dynasty, the country had just experienced turbulent times, and the north was even depopulated for thousands of miles. The south was better, but many families died in the war.

The situation of Zhang Yifan's family is not uncommon.

When Zhu Jingjing heard this, she felt heartbroken. She quickly turned to Zhu Di and said, "Fourth brother, did you hear that? He is very grateful. He will repay his kindness as soon as he gets rich, isn't that good?"

Zhu Di did not expect this situation, and he suddenly felt good in his heart. He couldn't help but nodded and said: "Yes, since he is an orphan, he should have nothing to worry about and can come to my house to work!"

People who know how to be grateful will most likely do well.Even if you don't have the ability, with this character, you can feel confident using it.

I'm afraid that the more talented those people with bad character are, the more likely they will be harmed by them!
After hearing this, Daniel was about to say something when he suddenly saw Zhang Yifan and his brother coming out of the city. He quickly pointed his finger in surprise and shouted: "Brother Fan is here, Brother Fan is here!"

Zhu Di turned around and saw the two people from yesterday. The man carrying the birdcage before was now carrying a heavy sack.

Before Zhu Di could speak, Daniel rushed to welcome him as if asking for credit, and said in an envious tone: "Brother Fan, this young master said he would let you work in his mansion!"

Going to work in a noble man's house, not only can you have a good income, but you can also find a backer!That is what all ordinary people want.

But who knows, when Zhang Yifan heard this, he turned to look at Zhu Di, shook his head and said, "Thank you for your kindness, I won't go!"
