As soon as the stick was pulled down, Mrs. Zhan stared at Zhan Feiyu with a sinister look, and asked sternly, "Are you going to kneel or not?"
Her body was staggered by the beating, which was so painful that Zhan Feiyu's eyes suddenly turned black. She knew that Mrs. Zhan was angry, but she didn't expect that she could be so cruel.
"Okay, like your mother, you really have a tough temper!" Mrs. Zhan saw that Zhan Feiyu didn't react, and there was a bit of revengeful joy in her twisted face.
Mrs. Zhan hit Zhan Feiyu hard on the legs with a stick again, "Even if I beat your unfilial granddaughter to death today, the county magistrate won't say anything!"
The Daqing Dynasty ruled the world with filial piety. Although it was not as harsh as if the father had to let the son die, the son had to die. But as the granddaughter of the grandmother who beats the disobedient, as long as no one is killed, neither the clan nor the government will do anything.
Will ask.
"Mom, stop fighting!" Seeing the ferocious look of Mrs. Zhan trying to beat someone to death, Mrs. Ma was so frightened that her voice changed. She rushed over to stop Mrs. Zhan, "You can't fight, I won't kill anyone again."
At first, Ma also felt that Zhan Feiyu needed to be taught a lesson, so he gave away the five taels of silver as he was told. People are not brave but they are not timid, but they couldn’t be beaten like this! Ma’s face turned pale with fright.
"Brother and sister, Mom is teaching Xiaoyu a lesson, why are you interrupting!" Little Yao glared dissatisfied, grabbed Ma's arm and pulled him back, this nosy idiot.
After being hit with two sticks on his back and thighs, Zhan Feiyu stood firm by holding on to the wall, looking coldly at the fierce-looking old lady Zhan, "Grandma, do you want to beat me to death? There is a grandma who beat her granddaughter to death. The Zhan family
Our descendants will no longer have to take the imperial examination."
To participate in the county examination, you need to ask local students to provide insurance to ensure that the candidates are clean. If Mrs. Zhan kills Zhan Feiyu, a child goddess, for no reason, Zhan Dalang may not be able to participate in the county examination, and his path to the imperial examination will be cut off.
"Mom, stop fighting!" Little Yao shouted urgently, snatched the chair leg from Mrs. Zhan's hand and threw it into the yard.
Zhan Dalang took the county examination in February this year. Although he failed, little Yao also knew the relevant procedures. Zhan Feiyu's words were not alarmist.
It is said that a candidate was screened out when he went to the yamen to apply because his great-grandfather sang a female role in the theater.
Mrs. Ma also understood and said hurriedly: "Mom, my second son is going to take the imperial examination to become a high official. You must not harm him!"
"Shut up!" Mrs. Zhan's ears hurt from the noise from Ma's sharp voice. Mrs. Zhan yelled angrily, her sinister eyes still staring at Zhan Feiyu, who was pale but too calm.
Old Mrs. Zhan looked furious, but her sense was still there, otherwise the chair leg would have been aimed at Zhan Feiyu's head, "Go back to the room, and you are not allowed to go to the private school from now on!"
Huh! The two sisters-in-law, Mrs. Ma and Mrs. Yao, looked at each other. They never expected that Mrs. Zhan would be so angry that she would not even let Xiaoyu go to private school. This...
Seeing the cold sweat on Zhan Feiyu's face, Ma was worried that she would be beaten again by Mrs. Zhan if she became stubborn, so she quickly advised her, "Xiaoyu, listen to my aunt, and go back to the house as soon as possible."
Nodding, Zhan Feiyu turned around and left. The pain in his thigh made Zhan Feiyu stagger a few times, but his small body still walked out of the main room step by step.
Back in the bedroom, Zhan Feiyu hissed in pain. He took off his pants and saw that his thighs were already red and swollen, and his back was probably even worse.
Enduring the pain and putting on his trousers, Zhan Feiyu found the small purse hidden in the closet. For less than two hundred coins, it should be enough to go to the hospital to see the injury.
After locking the bedroom door from the inside, Zhan Feiyu opened the window, and his useless gold finger came in handy.
The invisible Zhan Feiyu climbed out of the window and then left Zhan's house.
Jinlin Village is not far from the county seat. After getting on the official road, he saw the ox cart slowly approaching not far away. Zhan Feiyu walked out from behind the tree and said, "Uncle, I want to go to the county. I will give you two copper coins."
"
"Hey, why is the little girl alone?" The old man driving the bullock cart looked at Zhan Feiyu in confusion. Several nearby villages had to take the official road to go to the county town, but no children really went to the county by themselves.
.
After coming out, Zhan Feiyu changed into patched rags, deliberately messed up her hair, and smeared some dust on her face. At first glance, she looked no different from a country girl, at least it wouldn't make people think of being praised from all over the country.
Goddess child.
"My mother went to the county to sell eggs. Let me go by myself. She was waiting for me at the city gate. My legs hurt when I walked." Zhan Feiyu replied. There were few people in the village, so he sold them at the city gate and went to the west.
To set up a stall on the street, you still have to pay ten cents.
"Don't fall, you have walked a long way." Seeing that Zhan Feiyu almost fell, the old man hurriedly gave him a hand, and continued on his way with his whip as he waited for them to sit firmly.
There is only one old doctor in Huichun Tang on West Street. It is cheaper. The poor people nearby come here to get medical treatment and medicine. The old doctor is also good in medicine and can cure minor illnesses.
"You can't hide it from your parents. You have to lie down for two days after applying the medicine. You can't fight with those wild boys next time." The old doctor gave a few words of warning.
The mother-in-law at the medical center applied ointment to reduce swelling and blood stasis on Zhan Feiyu's back and thighs. The bones in her back were hard and her thighs were fleshy. Although the beating was severe, the root was not injured.
"Yes, I remember." Zhan Feiyu, who was lying on the bed, made up an excuse. She just said that she was beaten by a naughty child, and the money for medical treatment was paid by the naughty child's mother. She was afraid that her parents would scold her for sneaking here.
Huichun Hall.
"Go back after the ointment dries." The old doctor said a few words and went out.
Enduring the strong smell of plaster, Zhan Feiyu closed her eyes and thought. In the past, she also noticed that the way Nai looked at her was wrong, but at that time she only thought that Mrs. Zhan was patriarchal, and she didn't like the third wife.
people.
But recalling the fierce and vicious expression on Mrs. Zhan's face before, it would not be an exaggeration to say that she could be beaten to death. Zhan Feiyu smiled bitterly, saying that he was careless. Fortunately, the two sticks brought a definite result.
Suddenly, something flashed in his mind, and Zhan Feiyu sat up suddenly. The last time the horse was frightened in South Street, her mother suddenly pushed herself out...
Mrs. Li borrowed ten taels of silver from her parents' house and brought back a basket of eggs.
"Xiaoyu said that when she perfects her calligraphy next year, she can go to a bookstore and copy books, and she can make five hundred articles a month." Li's expression became a little lighter, as long as she got through this year, she would be fine.
"The little fish have lost weight. You can boil one of these eggs every day to replenish the body of the little fish." Boss Zhan was also very happy.
It has been four years since Da Lang went to private school, and he has never said anything about making money by copying books. Of course, the word Da Lang is disgusting to Boss Zhan, a rough guy, because it is not as neat and beautiful as Xiao Yu's writing.
"Sister-in-law, you are back." When the woman who was working in the fields saw the couple returning, she quickly put down her hoe and went over to greet them. "I asked why I didn't see my sister-in-law this morning."
Li noticed something was wrong with the other person's expression when speaking, and her heart skipped a beat, "What's wrong?"
The woman immediately told the story about Liu Wangcai and his mother's visit, and because they had taken care of it, Muramasa and Mr. Zhan didn't send anyone to Li's parents' house to call them back. After all, everyone was happy with the result, and Liu Wangcai had to pay for it.
