Chapter Fifty-One: A Hands-Up
My master uncle was talking aside, while Chen Kaizhi was busy and just leaving himself.
After two lifetimes, Chen Kaizhi didn’t know the reason why it was difficult for poor families to have a noble son? Now that he has bet on everything about himself, it’s finally time to test it.
At this moment, a sudden thunder sounded, and in a daze, the sudden rain fell down. Uncle Wucai was suddenly embarrassed and shouted: "Hide on the rain, hide from the rain, it's not right. You have to go and see the list. Oh, are you rich? Go and buy an oil umbrella."
Chen Kaizhi walked in the rain and didn't care.
Uncle Wucai couldn't help but say angrily: "Is this rain big? Is it small? I don't hold an umbrella and I'm going to have gonorrhea. Oh, I'm done, I'm going to be sick tomorrow. I'm very expensive now. Those doctors who kill thousands of knives and are ignorant..."
Chen Kaizhi seemed to be immune to the uncle's trouble and continued to walk forward in silence.
But it was still early at this time and the street was still deserted. A loud sound suddenly sounded in the sound of rain, which made Chen Kaizhi frown slightly.
Hearing the sound, he looked at the noisy place and saw that in the heavy rain, several officers were surrounding a ragged boy, and the leader was Crew Zhou.
The Crew Zhou picked up the little beggar viciously, and cursed as if he was lifting a chick, saying, "Run, where are you going? Where are you with your household registration? Leave it to me to check out."
"I...I don't have a household registration!" The beggar's face was unkempt, his clothes were covered in confusion, and his face was soaked in the rain was full of rebelliousness.
"So brave!" Zhou Chai's carry hand and slapped him twice in the face, sternly saying: "Then you are refugees, our Da Chen's rule..."
Even though they were soaked all over, the few people were still unwilling to let go of the beggar.
Chen Kaizhi couldn't help but take a few steps forward and looked at the beggar through the rain curtain. The beggar's face could not be seen very clearly, but those eyes were both panic and a little unwilling to do so.
At this moment, those eyes with a little cynical glance swept towards Chen Kaizhi quickly, but in just a moment, Chen Kaizhi shook his mind. In that gaze, it felt like he was hit by a heavy punch, hitting a weak spot on his body.
Chen Kaizhi suddenly felt that this scene was so similar. Just a few months ago, he had no household registration and was also a little bit dismissed in Jinling City.
At that time, wouldn’t he be desperate?
And what about myself now?
Chen Kaizhi felt a little sad inexplicably. Now, he is always hitting walls everywhere? He... is just luckier than this little beggar.
As if he was a traitor, he quickly stepped forward and said, "Brother Zhou."
When Zhou heard a familiar voice, he wiped the rain from his face. Looking back, he saw that it was Chen Kaizhi, and couldn't help but say, "Oh, it's Brother Chen, why did Brother Chen come here?"
Chen Kaizhi bowed forward, he glanced at the beggar and said, "Brother Zhou, I look at this beggar."
Case Zhou was stunned for a moment, and glanced at the disheveled beggar, and seemed to think the contrast between beggar and Chen Kaizhi was too big.
He grinned and said, "Meet?"
Chen Kaizhi smiled and said, "Brother Zhou, why bother with him? I think, forget it. I will invite Brother Zhou to have a drink another day."
Zhou Maifu knew the best of human nature. He knew that Chen Kaizhi was not only close to Song Ai Si, but also the county magistrate also favored Chen Kaizhi, so this face must be given.
Zhou Chai said: "But he has no household registration..."
Chen Kaizhi glanced at the miserable beggar, and after hesitation, he seemed to have made up his mind: "Then I will be a guarantee, so I will ask Brother Zhou to do one."
To apply for a household registration, you need a survivor. Chen Kaizhi's household registration was a survivor made by Zhou Chou. Now, as a county student, Chen Kaizhi is willing to protect this little beggar, so there is no big problem.
Uncle Wucai didn't understand what happened to Chen Kaizhi before. Now, seeing this situation, he couldn't help but cover his head and said angrily: "Kaizhi, it's important to look at the list, what do you care about?"
Crazy Zhou also thought that Chen Kaizhi was going to look at the list today, so he wanted to persuade him not to worry about this little business. If such a beggar gets into a lawsuit in the future, wouldn’t he have to worry about you?
But when he spoke, he had no words. He was a versatile person, and he only saw what Chen Kaizhi said.
Chen Kaizhi was soaked all over, but he still said, "It's still early, so why not go to the yamen first."
Uncle Wucai stared and said, "I missed the list, what should I do if I see you?"
Chen Kaizhi was too lazy to care about Wucai's uncle and insisted on getting a household registration for the little beggar. Zhou Maiyao had to take the little beggar and Chen Kaizhi to the county government house.
Here, he negotiated with the clerk in the household for a moment. The clerk did not ask much, but just glanced at the beggar in disgust and said, "Name."
The beggar had gradually stabilized from his excitement just now. He said aiqi: "I don't have a name, but the person who brought me up called me Wuji before he died."
"Don't have a last name?"
The beggar shook his head.
Chen Kaizhi frowned and thought for a while, saying, "My surname is Chen, then you should be Chen Wuji!"
"Ha...it's still a national surname." Zhou Chou joked.
The so-called national surname is the surname of the emperor of the Great Chen Dynasty today. The current emperor's surname is Chen, so the national name is Da Chen. Of course, there are countless people with the surname Chen, and Zhou Maifu just joked.
Then he asked about his approximate age, and the clerk recorded it, Chen Kai went to sign and seal it, and a household registration was completed.
The civil servant handed over the household registration to Chen Kaizhi, and Chen Kaizhi thanked him. The civil servant smiled and said, "Chen Sheng, it's just a matter of hard work."
Of course, it was a simple task. Chen Kaizhi knew in his heart that the world was so unfair. For this little beggar, it was a matter of life, but it was just a simple task to himself. By the same token, for those born with a golden key, a small scholar is nothing. It is not a big deal to have or not, but it requires countless efforts to himself.
He led the little beggar out of the household house and arrived at the county yard corridor. Chen Kaizhi solemnly handed over the household registration to him and said, "Chen Wuji."
The little beggar looked straight at him.
Chen Kaizhi said: "Where is your family?"
Chen Wuji shook his head and said, "I have no family. Since I was a child... I raised me by Taoist Yang. He... is dead."
"Just like me." Chen Kaizhi couldn't help but sigh. He had no family in this world.
At this time, he said, "Now that you have a household registration, you should make a living and make a living. Although it is difficult to walk, as long as you are still alive, you will have many opportunities. This is what I say to you on weekdays, and I will give you this to you."
Chen Wuji nodded and looked at Chen Kaizhi's eyes, showing gratitude.
Chen Kaizhi thought about it, then took out the purse from his sleeve, and the copper coins inside were filled with them. Apart from a small piece of silver, there were dozens of copper coins, which were Chen Kaizhi's entire belongings.
He wanted to get dozens of copper coins for him, but seeing the boy in front of him with a pale face and thin skin, he finally gritted his teeth and stuffed all the money into Chen Wuji's hand, saying, "Take this money well, don't squander it, find a place to settle down, okay... I'll leave."
If the money is gone, then it is gone. I, Chen Kaizhi, can't make a living anywhere?
But Master Wucai, who was watching from the side, suddenly widened his eyes again and couldn't help but bare his teeth and said, "Is there still no money?"
Chen Kaizhi seemed to have not heard it, and took the opportunity to borrow an umbrella from Zhou Chai and said, "Uncle Master, let's go and see the list."
But when he and Mr. Wucai, who were angry, held an umbrella and headed towards the end of the street, he couldn't help but turn around and saw the little beggar still holding the purse in his hand, standing there blankly.
Chen Kaizhi smiled at him and shouted, "You should do it yourself."
