Zhang Zhou’s impression of the doorway of a home with earthen walls and gray tiles.
Gather a large number of melon-eating people.
In front of them was a well-dressed young man who looked like a dog, carrying a fan and directing the four men he brought to surround the Zhang family's four women and children.
The people in front of the door are all familiar to Zhang Zhou, and they have always appeared in his mind these days. They are his wife, concubine, son and daughter.
The six-year-old son, with a tiger-like head and a strong head, rushed to the front with a stick in hand, bravely facing the invading enemy head-on.
His wife came from a wealthy family, was beautiful, gentle and virtuous. She leaned behind her son and was not to be outdone. She was holding a mud brick in her hand, ready to fight the enemy to the death.
The concubine is cute and smart.
The four-year-old daughter was hiding behind the concubine, blinking her big innocent eyes. Tears lingered in her eyes for a long time, and finally she couldn't hold back the flow. She was really a little beauty that I felt pity for.
A family of four is fending off an invading enemy.
"Fangzheng, right? I'm here to collect a debt, and they beat me!"
That young master, Zhang Zhou finally remembered his name, it was Li Zhui.
He was his friend. As for how he owed the debt, he couldn't remember. It might be a romantic debt, or it might be a debt owed after being drunk. There was an IOU. This time, the family moved to Minxiang to avoid this debt.
Li Zhui was arrogant and domineering, relying on his connections in the Nanjing Governor's Mansion, and usually bullied others with his power.
There was a red mark on Li Zhui's face.
It seems that it should be the masterpiece of the eldest son.
What a good boy, just like your father.
This posture alone threw all the previous worries in Zhang Zhou's heart to the sky. If he didn't step forward, what would he do?
…
While Li Chai was reasoning with Fang Zheng, Zhang Zhou grabbed a solid brick in the corner, rushed up, and smashed the head of one of the four thugs brought by Li Chai.
This is called taking the enemy by surprise, striking first to gain the upper hand, and destroying the enemy's vitality with lightning speed.
Zhang Zhou's physical strength is not good in this life, but he has practiced in his previous life. From experience to consciousness, he is definitely a good fighter. At critical moments, he can only use his consciousness to make up for his physical shortcomings.
"boom!"
Hit the head with a brick.
Steady, accurate and ruthless.
Slab bricks, or mud bricks, are a bit weak and will shatter if you hit one.
The man fell straight forward and fell to the ground with a "thud". He was fine, but he couldn't stand up for a short time. He just lay on the ground and covered his head and groaned.
"ah?"
After Zhang Zhou knocked him down, Li Zhui and his three remaining men noticed Zhang Zhou's appearance. In a hurry, Zhang Zhou wanted to raise his fist and hit the next one, but he realized that the damage of his fist was still limited.
He shouted to his son: "Dalang, stick!"
"Mom, dad is back!"
Brat, your dad wants a stick from you, why can't he throw the stick first and then shout?
Do you understand what it means for father and son to work together to cut through gold?
At this time, Li Zhui and his three men reacted, and Zhang Zhou's sneak attack only achieved the result of annihilating one enemy.
"Hitting someone!"
"The real owner is back! Let's see a good show!"
"Stop it. If you have something to say, say it properly. If you don't do it, I'll report you to the official!"
The onlookers all had their own thoughts.
The neighbors are just watching the fun, and Fang Zheng seems to be here to uphold justice. However, these days, civil disputes adhere to the principle of "resting litigation." To put it bluntly, they are just troublemakers. Driving people away and yelling that you have something to say?
Talk about your sister!
"Get him!"
Even Li Zhui now realized that he would stop nagging Fang Zheng and deal with Zhang Zhou first.
Zhang Zhou had already rushed to the door and shouted at the whole family: "Go in! Close the door tightly! No one can come out!"
The family reacted.
They probably didn’t quite adapt to Zhang Zhou’s change.
Why did I take a provincial examination and my eyes looked wrong when I came back? So murderous.
The wife still had her own opinion. She originally learned that Fang Zheng was coming and wanted to come out to reason, but she put the whole family in danger. At this time, she made amends and took the family into the hospital while her husband was blocking the door.
"Dad, I'll give you the stick!"
The son finally came to his senses and voluntarily handed over his weapon.
Zhang Zhou picked up the stick and rushed forward, a little recklessly. It seemed that he was planning to use his body to resist the attack to give his family time to retreat to the yard.
Although the other party didn't bring anyone with them, they had the advantage of having more people and stronger bodies. Seeing Zhang Zhou hit him with his body, they didn't care about chasing the women and children who entered the hospital, and the three of them worked together to rush towards Zhang Zhou.
But Zhang Zhou's move was just a feint.
Zhang Zhou ducked and avoided the counterattacks of the first two people. He swept his legs with his feet and tripped the third unlucky guy. He completed his movements in one go and hit him on the head with a stick. He took advantage of the situation and continued to charge forward, aiming directly at his target. Take the opportunity to face Mr. Li.
Seeing this posture, Li Zhui actually forgot that he was stronger than Zhang Zhou. He opened his fan to block the attack and wanted to apply oil on the soles of his feet.
"call!"
Zhang Zhou waved his stick in the wind.
"Poof!"
Impartially, the stick was directly pressed on Li Zhuihou's forehead.
"Ah..." Li Zhui leaned forward, and after Zhang Zhou's added kick, he fell to the ground.
When the two thugs at the back saw this posture, they rushed towards Zhang Zhou without their lives, beating one of the four. If they didn't show their performance again, they would probably be fired when they returned, and those who had the contract of selling themselves would be sold to other families.
But it was Zhang Zhou who stepped on Li Zhui's neck and hit the wall with a stick. The stick broke with a sound, and Zhang Zhou pressed the relatively sharp end against the back of Li Zhui's head.
"Come here again? Let you bury him!"
Four thugs, two intact and two partially disabled, stared directly at Zhang Zhou, but no one dared to come forward.
A "fight with weapons" came to a successful end when Zhang Zhouwei divided five by two.
…
When Fang Zheng saw that the fight was over, he quickly came out to smooth things over: "Stop!"
Zhang Zhou glared at Fang Zhengdao: "A group of evil people came to our house to rob women and children. Why didn't you tell them to stop? How can the interests of our neighbors be protected? You guys in the street also saw that they were the ones who took action first. I was the only one who took action." A man who beats five people is forced to do it.”
Zhang Zhou was a Gongsheng student. Even if he didn't have much ink in his stomach, his social status was there. Zhang Zhou had the confidence to challenge Fang Zheng, but those of his neighbors would not have had the courage.
The neighbors were just joining in the fun.
Zhang Zhou did a good job in drawing hatred.
At the beginning, he took the position of "evil people" and "our own people", and also publicly questioned the inaction of "those in power".
"Yes, that's it. A group of people came up to bully the orphans and widows."
An aunt couldn't stand it anymore and spoke for Zhang Zhou.
Hey, this aunt, although I am very touched that you spoke for me, I am not dead yet. What does it mean to be an orphan or a widow?
"Great official Zhang, this group of people just needs to be dealt with!"
Li Zhui was stepped on by Zhang Zhou. He hammered the ground with his hands and shouted loudly: "It is only right to pay back the debt! He owes me thirty taels of silver with principal and interest. Fang Zheng, report it to the official immediately! Come and arrest him." Him! Otherwise I will call me daddy..."
"boom!"
Zhang Zhou picked up a stick and touched Li Chai's head.
Li Zhui touched his head and lost his temper.
Zhang Zhou knelt down and took out the IOU from Li Zhui's arms. It clearly stated that he owed Li Zhui twenty taels of silver.
Fang Zheng quickly reminded: "Are you from Zhang Guan? You are a scholar and you should know how the law is determined. If you tear up the IOU in person, no one can help you."
Zhang Zhou showed the IOU to the people present: "Look, it clearly states that I only owe him twenty taels of silver without any interest. Why should I pay him back thirty taels? And he took advantage of me. You deliberately put your debt on me when you were drunk!"
"So that's it." The neighbors instantly expressed their understanding and sympathy for Zhang Zhou.
"I am also a principled person. Since I have signed the IOU, I will not default on the debt, but there is always time for grace. Come back in a month!"
Earn twenty taels a month?
All the time-travelers can make a hundred thousand taels in ten days, why can't it be my turn?
Set a small goal first.
Besides, this is probably a nightmare after being drunk. There is no question whether I can stay in Daming for a full month. Maybe when I wake up, I can play with my mobile phone in the sun in bed.
Fang Zhengdao: "Zhang Guanren is right. It's better for Li Guanren to wait until he is full term to collect debts! You see, he can't pay even now..."
Li Zhui's mouth was full of mud and he couldn't even say anything against it. The thug on the side asked a question that was like soul torture: "What if he runs away again?"
Zhang Zhou said: "I am a native of Nanjing, where can I go? Besides, my Zhang family was once a wealthy family, so why would I owe twenty taels of silver and not pay it back? My father is a good man in Zhang Dashan in the city, and my brother's family has a big business. You won’t even try to save yourself from death!”
At the critical moment, Zhang Zhou could only move his father and brother out.
Although he knows that now that his father is dead, his brother and sister-in-law will not care about him.
Because the impression... is hard to describe in words.
The family has been divided. When the family was separated, his brother and sister-in-law cheated on him. Now that he is in trouble, will he help him?
But it’s easy to say it.
"Brother Li, let me tell you, what do you think?" Zhang Zhou held Li Zhui's hair so that Li Zhui's head could tilt up.
"Okay. Just wait!"
You're already in this situation, why are you still saying harsh words?
It seems that you have never seen my methods.
"Brother Li, it seems that you have a strong opinion. If you come to the door again when I am not at home, wouldn't I suffer a big loss? It seems that you want to kill the fish and defeat the net..."
"No, Mr. Zhang, don't cause trouble. I will keep an eye on you from now on. If he comes again within a month, he will be driven away from the gate. But after one month, you must remember to repay the debt, otherwise you can only go Your brother is reasonable!"
Everyone is begging grandpa to sue grandma.
Only then did Zhang Zhou let go of Li Zhui's foot. Li Zhui seemed to be out of trouble. With the support of a group of his men, he staggered towards the entrance of the alley.
"good!"
Zhang Zhou was like a victorious warrior and was praised by the neighbors in the street.
…
The door to your home opens.
Zhang Zhou also took the steps of a winner and entered his home.
Seeing the familiar and shabby furnishings in the yard, Zhang Zhou instantly understood that victory was only temporary. Making twenty taels a month? Maybe it would be more practical to run away with the whole family.
But these days, household registration guidance is a big trouble.
There was nothing of value in the house, and the only thing worth mentioning was a big rooster and six or seven little hens running around the yard.
"Husband, you scared us to death. Have you finished the exam?"
"finish exam."
"How did you do on the exam?"
"Uh... it's not bad. If nothing else happens, I should be able to get a spot on the list. I'm hungry. Is there anything to eat?"
After bragging about your awesomeness, it’s time to say something real.
I was already starving to death, and fighting this fight was a huge drain on my body and mind. Stars were popping up in front of my eyes.
The wife looked touched and said: "Sister, hurry up and cook a bowl of rice for your husband. Then take two eggs from the basket and fry them for him. Thank you for your hard work."
