"Then the two of us will wait here until grandma or madam comes back."
Since she couldn't make sense with this person, Yang Zhen had no choice but to ask him to "lead" him. He had seen this kind of thing many times in his previous life. This is the saying "The king of hell is easy to meet, but the devil is difficult to deal with".
He must bring Tie Zhu into the Zhao Mansion today, not only because of Tie Zhu's life-saving grace to him, but also because of what happened last night, which made him understand that the Taoist temple is no longer a safe place. Since Chen Fugui can find him, the Zhu family might also be able to find him. If they find that he is not in the Taoist temple, how will they treat Tiezhu?
Maybe nothing happened, maybe...it's hard to say.
You cannot rely on the kindness of others, especially those who can easily control your life or death.
What if the Zhao family is unwilling to accept both of them at the same time? He had also thought about it. If that were the case, there would be nothing left in the Zhao Mansion. At that time, he would bundle the sale with Tiezhu and see if anyone else would be willing to take them both in at the same time.
Just as he was thinking this, Tie Zhu spoke:
"Little Shitou! You go in, I won't go!"
How does this work? Don't make any trouble. Yang Zhen was anxious, so she grabbed Tie Zhu and pulled him aside.
"Tie Zhu, listen to me. First, we can't go back to the Taoist Temple. You will understand even if I don't tell you why. Second, you have to remember that there is no way out by being a beggar. We must find something to do. . I have known this family before. It is a very good family. You will never be like the Gu family here. They will treat you well..."
"Then I won't go either!" Tie Zhuhuan got angry: "I don't like working for others, I want to go back to the Taoist Temple! I...I haven't done anything, why can't I live in the Taoist Temple?"
You are so naive! Yang Zhen has already understood that Tie Zhu is actually a very lazy person at heart and likes to lie flat. As long as there is a stutter, Taoism is the most ideal life for him.
"Tiezhu!" Yang Zhen suddenly shouted loudly: "Do you still remember those relatives who died in Tianjiacun?"
"Ah?" Tie Zhu looked confused.
"There are more than a thousand people in Tianjia Village, but you are the only ones left. You are the last hope of Tianjia Village! If you live well, they can feel at ease in heaven; if you remain like a beggar all your life, do you think you should let them see... ...Your parents, they will die, no, rest in peace!"
Yang Zhen's voice was stern, and she almost said the last few words through gritted teeth.
Tie Zhu's eyes were red and he fell silent.
"Iron Pillar!" Yang Zhen slowed down her voice: "Someone told me that the birthmark on your face is not difficult to cure. Immortals have many miraculous elixirs that can eliminate them. When we save enough money, we will go to the immortals to buy this miraculous elixir. .When your scar heals, you will be a handsome man! At that time, you can also get married and have children, and let your parents and the dead folks in Tianjia Village see: There are still people in our Tianjia Village in this world. , not only live well, but also live well!"
Tie Zhu finally cried. He started sobbing, then squatted on the ground and started to cry loudly.
Yang Zhen breathed a long sigh of relief and patted Tie Zhu on the shoulder.
It doesn’t matter if you cry for a while, just cry it out. After crying, my heart opened up.
Tie Zhu's heart knot is the birthmark on his face, which makes him always feel inferior in his bones and only wants to hide in places like Taoist temples.
Now that he saw hope, he believed that from now on, Tie Zhu would no longer be a salted fish.
After watching this scene, the middle-aged housekeeper looked at Yang Zhen and his eyes changed. At first, he was only a little polite to the child because of the Black Iron Order, but now he felt that the child in front of him was extraordinary. As a result, his words became much more harmonious:
"A Black Iron Order recommends one person at a time. This is indeed the rule of the house. Please don't blame me, little friend. I will find a room right now, and you and your brother will stay there for now. When my mother-in-law comes back, I will report again..."
"Thank you very much, uncle!" Yang Zhen saluted politely.
…
This wait lasted several hours.
Tie Zhu sat in a corner without speaking. Yang Zhen knew that he had not fully recovered from the emotion just now, so she didn't care about him. She asked the housekeeper for some paper and pen, and then started writing on the table.
After thinking for a while, Yang Zhen wrote four big words on the title page:
[Preliminary numbers]
Turning to the first page, Yang Zhen began to write:
"Numbers include zero, one, two, three...nine, which are called 'written numbers'; there are also 0, 1, 2, 3...9, which are called arithmetic numbers..."
It turned out that after communicating with the lady yesterday, Yang Zhen came up with the idea of writing such an article. This world still uses ancient calculations, and there are many inconveniences in calculations. As a time traveler, a person who will live in this world from now on, if he contributes some of what he knows and has learned, even if it can make the world a little more progress, he will have a feeling that his life is not in vain.
Yang Zhen was thinking and writing, almost in one breath, and finally finished it when the sun was setting. He was also very satisfied with this masterpiece, which contained thousands of words and filled seven or eight pages.
During this period, the housekeeper also ordered someone to bring some snacks and tea to them, and both of them ate them thoroughly without leaving any residue.
At Youshi, someone finally came.
…
"Uncle Wu, where is the little brother holding the grandma's token?"
A clear, bird-like voice suddenly sounded outside the door. Not long after, the housekeeper, Uncle Wu, led a pretty girl in.
The girl looked to be thirteen or fourteen years old, and she was a junior high school student in Yang Zhen's previous life, but judging from her clothes, she should be a maid from this mansion.
The maid was slightly surprised when she saw Yang Zhen and the two of them. She turned around and asked, "Uncle Wu, why is there another person?"
"That's it, Miss Caiyun..." Butler Wu quickly explained the matter and finally said:
"It's really a small mistake to trouble Miss Caiyun to make a trip..."
"Uncle Wu, you acted according to the rules. Where did you go wrong?" Caiyun pursed his lips and smiled, turned to Yang Zhen, and said a blessing: "Young gentleman, and this young master, please come with me."
Yang Zhen stood up quickly, returning the greeting while arranging the manuscript she had just written. He also asked Tie Zhu to go with him, but he saw Tie Zhu sitting there stupidly, motionless.
"Tie Zhu, let's go!" Yang Zhen called.
"Oh, oh." Tie Zhu came back to his senses. The two of them walked out the door together.
Following Caiyun, Yang Zhen poked Tie Zhu with her elbow: "What were you doing just now? You looked like a fool."
"This girl is so pretty. I have never seen such a pretty girl in Tianjiacun." Tie Zhu looked at Caiyun with a look of confusion on his face.
"You..." Yang Zhen was angry.
This opened the knot in his heart, and Tie Zhu's mind became more alert, and he actually started to miss girls.
