Prosperous Tang Soul

Chapter 12 Gifts

Chapter 12 Gifts
"I've seen the two sergeants!" Zhang Yi stepped forward alone, holding two rather fat big yellow croakers in his hands and handing them to them with a smile, "I went out to do some errands today, so I came back a little late. , please accommodate me, both of you!"

Immediately, a smile appeared on Zhang Ergangzi's face, and he naturally took the fish and ignored Zhang Yi and the four Baiyue people behind him.

It's really not a big deal to take some benefits at ease. In Haifeng, no tribe dares to do anything!
"Go in, don't drive so late at night in the future, it won't be worth it if you run into a jackal, tiger, leopard or something!" Wang Laosan said while looking at the four Baiyue with fish on their backs. The man snorted heavily before standing back under the wall.

"Then thank you both!" Zhang Yi cupped his hands and took the lead.

It wasn't until Zhang Yi and his party left that Wang Laosan looked at Zhang Ergangzi with some doubts, and asked, "I'm talking about Zhang Ergangzi, why are you so easy to talk to today when you are usually plucking wild goose?"

As the saying goes, relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, and relying on the water to eat the water, there are connections and errands on their bodies, and what these city gate guards eat is the passing money at the gate of the city.

Seeing Wang Laosan's puzzled eyes and Zhang Ergang's face feeling complacent, he wrapped the fish in his hand with a big leaf and put it by the wall behind his buttocks before asking: "You said that in Haifeng City, apart from you and me, Military household, how many Han people have you met?"

"Han people? Of course they are the officials and merchants in the yamen. Why do you ask this?" Wang Laosan was a little confused.

However, he admires Zhang Ergangzi. Although he is the same guard as the city gate, there are people above him. The money and food manager in the county government is his uncle. The difference will not fall on him?

"Most of the truth is, besides these people, there is another kind of people here who are exiled criminals!" Zhang Ergangzi looked around, and when he saw no one, he lowered his voice and said, "This young gentleman is an exiled criminal. He is also the son of a certain important person in the capital, and I don’t know what he did to get him here. But we’d better not provoke this kind of person, maybe he will be a very successful person when he turns around that day, and now Selling well is not enough to get any friendship, but it will not offend people. You just saw that there are four or five savages behind the people. Which one of these people is not rebellious? Let them carry things obediently Hurry up in the starry night."

Zhang Yi naturally didn't know that the two city gate guards were talking about his affairs. He was seeing Lao Zhong standing at the door of his house like a clay sculpture, looking forward.

"Master, you're back!" Old Zhong spotted Zhang Yi immediately, and rushed up to him with a cane.

"I said that today I went out to do errands and didn't come back so early. You still came out and waited. The wind in Haifeng is strong. If you are cold at your age, it will be bad!" Zhang Yi smiled again, helping Followed the old clock into the yard to signal to a few "auntie" people to put the fish in the yard and prepare to see what else to eat in the kitchen.

He hadn't eaten anything except some dried fish sent by Yu Sou at noon, and he was already hungry after walking such a long distance all night, besides, there were still four 'aunts' Out of etiquette, they sent him back to the city and helped him carry his things.

But these "auntie" people didn't seem to like to spend the night in the city, because they didn't understand the language, they were just scholars like Yu Sou, arched their hands at Zhang Yi, and disappeared into the night.

It is not easy for Zhang Yi to keep these "auntie" people. There is an old saying, don't do to others what you don't want, and it is inconvenient for him to keep them if they don't like the environment in the city. The old bell in the pot left him The bowl of millet porridge is just enough for him to enjoy alone and saves the trouble of restarting the stove.

They all became strangers, and they lost their usual attention to eating. Zhang Yi held a big bowl and began to drink porridge beautifully. This is also one of his few hobbies.

Because only at this time did he feel that he was still alive, not a dream!

Old Zhong had already cracked his mouth and laughed non-stop. More than 200 catties of fish can buy enough food for the family to eat for the New Year. The most important thing is to go to the county government tomorrow to meet the county magistrate.

"Master, when you go to Huamao in the county government office tomorrow, are you going to pay a visit to County Magistrate Liu? We have been in Haifeng for a few days, and we can't justify not going." Seeing his young master finished eating the millet porridge, Lao Zhong's face turned pale. Full of smiles.

Being able to eat so much shows that the young master's body is fine, and it would be even better if he could eat some meat when he was growing up.

Speaking of which, the county magistrate's surname is Liu, but his name is Zhang Yi. Although he is the local emperor in Haifeng City in the eyes of many people, in fact, for an official, being sent to Lingnan as an official is not a kind of thing. exile?
Far away from the Central Plains, far away from the political center of the Tang Dynasty, his situation here is not much better than that of Zhang Yi!

"Well, it's time to pay a visit to Mr. Liu. We are here thanks to his care. At least he gave us a small yard so that we won't have to eat and sleep outside!" Yi had a very good impression of the county magistrate Liu who was over forty years old.

It is extremely rare for someone to give charcoal in a timely manner when you are lonely, and it is even more precious if you don't try to repay it.

There should be a factor of sympathy, and he could even think that the reason why County Magistrate Liu took care of him more than his deceased prisoner father was probably because of his sympathy for each other.

Therefore, Zhang Yi is essentially a kind of person to Liu County Magistrate, the difference is that one is an official and the other is a criminal. After all, it is not difficult for Emperor Tiangao to take care of him a little while he is far within the scope of his power.

There is still a lot of work to do, and the old and the young start to pack up the catch under the bright moonlight.

There were a lot of fish, Lao Zhong sorted the fish, and then picked out the two fattest ones and put them aside, he planned to bring the two fish to the young master tomorrow to give gifts.

Seeing this, Zhang Yi couldn't help showing a wry smile on his face, pointed to the other pannier and said, "Uncle Zhong, don't be so troublesome, here are dried fishes that have already been dried, and you can help me find a cloth bag when I go out tomorrow morning." Just wrap it up!"

In fact, it doesn't matter whether the gift is expensive or not, what matters is the heart. Of course, if it can express the heart and is very precious, then it will be perfect.As the magistrate of a county, County Magistrate Liu would naturally not lack two fish, so Zhang Yi decided to give him something special.
