In one go

"Why, everyone is coveting the position of my Wang family, but you, a poor scholar, don't care about it?" Wang An didn't intend to participate in this recruitment conference, but he was interested in hearing this kid's wild words. Let's see, what pride can a poor scholar have? !

"I think you speak like this, you must be a slave of the Wang family." Zhang Zhezhi stood upright, and his words were full of arrogance, "No matter what your status is in the Wang family, the world knows that you are still a slave. Although I He is a poor scholar, but he still has some dignity. It is absolutely unacceptable to look at other people's faces and rely on others! Don't say that the third master Wang you talk about is still a withdrawn and violent guy!"

"Scholar, you can read books indiscriminately, but you can't talk nonsense." Wang An glanced at Zhang Zhe and raised his hands to the crowd around him, "Everyone knows that the third master is kind and generous. Everyone in the mansion I am grateful to the third master, how can there be such a withdrawn and irritable talk?!" Before he finished speaking, there was a burst of whispers from the crowd, and there were constant words of "the third master is a good man!" "I will be loyal to the third master all my life!" When Lei's words reached Zhang Zhezhi's ears, he seemed to be shocked, and he didn't say anything to refute for a long time. He only kept a pair of eyes looking at Wang An, and it was clear that he was still unwilling.

It's time to give a candy after a stick, Wang An changed the subject, and smiled kindly: "Little brother, you're right, it's really not a good thing to rely on others, but people live in this world, how can they not look at it?" When people live with a face? Even the stall owner who sells vegetables at the street corner has to smile all over his face if he wants to earn more money. A scholar like the little brother, if his ancestors become a high-ranking official, he has to watch The face of the emperor!"

"But... but... being willing to be a slave is really demeaning!" Zhang Zhezhi flicked his face, appearing extremely arrogant.

Maybe it's a good seed, just ask.Wang An made up his mind: "Then why is the little brother Gao Pinxing?"

"This..." Wang An's words also happened to ask about Zhang Zhezhi's difficulties, and he muttered unwillingly, "There are all literati and scholars around, who can recite poems and compose pairs to enjoy the spring flowers and autumn moon."

That being the case, just take this opportunity to try this kid. "Little brother is new here, and my Wang family is full of talented people. Although it is impossible for everyone to speak well, it is not difficult to find a few friends who recite poetry." Seeing Zhang Zhezhi cast a puzzled look, Wang An arched his hands, "If the little brother doesn't believe it, I can have a discussion with the little brother."

Wang An sent the words to Zhang Zhezhi's strengths, his eyes lit up: "Then let's use this beautiful scenery in the south of the Yangtze River as the theme, and make a solitaire poem. If anyone can't catch up, let's admit defeat!" Don't give it to Wang An Given the opportunity to promise, I said rashly, "The spring breeze blows the willows, and the water ripples like eyebrows."

Wang An was also right very quickly: "On the [-]th, there is hope in the gate of Fanghua, and the sound of footsteps grinds one's soul."

"Shuttle back and forth like flowing water, who would like to be bound for a lifetime?"

"A black magpie flies south to look for a good tree, and the flowing water draws in hope of a crouching dragon."

"A cup full of water overflows with an empty space, and you are conceited. The mountains are low and the water is shallow."

"Honghu's long-term ambition goes with the sky, and the wide sea is deep and prosperous."

"Business travelers and state officials interact with each other, and every inch of grass is afraid of wildfire wind!"

"Kong Ming divided the world with his fan, and he won a good reputation!"

This superficially impassioned solitaire finally stopped at Zhang Zhezhi's place. Many people watched and applauded Wang An, but Wang An was also sweating in his heart.The scholar in front of me really has two brushes, not to mention his diction and literary talent, what's more valuable is that he has great ambitions and is proud of himself.If he hadn't repeatedly expressed his appreciation for talent, this straightforward scholar would have really made him speechless.But this time the scholar took the initiative to stop, he must have sensed his sincerity, he couldn't bear to touch his face again, he must have a soft-hearted temper.If he can be used by the Wang family, he might be a loyal person, why not take this opportunity to accept this scholar!

"I admit it," Wang An cupped his hands, looking very humble, "I'm really ashamed to say that the villain is not a talented person in the Wang family. This time, I can narrowly win this time, thanks to the mercy of my little brother."

Since the beginning of the poem, Zhang Zhezhi put away his contemptuous expression, his face was full of surprise, as if he never thought that a small domestic slave could have such literary talent.He seemed to recall his defiant appearance just now, and he was really ashamed: "The villain is not talented, it really made me laugh at you. I made some rude remarks just now, please forgive me..." After a pause, " The villain is short-sighted, arrogant and conceited like a frog in a well, and he still shows off his literary talents in front of his brother, which is really beyond his control! But he has such a literary talent, why..." Zhang Zhezhi's caring intentions are not fake at all, vaguely A little "pity".

Wang An made up his mind to take Zhang Zhezhi for his own use, and became more kind-hearted: "It's a long story." He glanced around, hesitating slightly, "Why don't I invite my little brother to drink some wine and chat while drinking?"

"Okay!" Zhang Zhezhi immediately agreed without thinking, said a few words to Zhao Xian, pushed aside the crowd, and walked to the restaurant not far away with Wang An.Only some ignorant onlookers were left behind: "Is this the end?"... What's more, they secretly remembered Zhang Zhezhi, jealous that he, a white-haired boy, was favored by Director Wang.

No matter how emotional the other side was, Zhang Zhezhi and Wang An had already had a very happy conversation. The two exchanged names and ages, and they were born in the same year.Several hours had passed between pushing the cups and changing the cups, but the two of them didn't realize it and continued to chat.

"Brother, Wang, since I recognize you as a brother, I will definitely not harm you! There were too many people talking about it before, so it is inconvenient to talk to you in detail, but now there is no one around, Brother Yu will tell you the truth, although the position of the Wang family It's not as good as becoming an official, but it's still a rare and good job!" Wang An and Zhang Zhezhi clinked a glass, and the whole person was already drunk.

"I know Brother Wang treats me like a younger brother, and he will definitely not harm me. I also know that everyone is robbing this job, and it must be in his interest." Zhang Zhezhi put down his wine glass, showing embarrassment, "It's just..."

"Just what?"

Zhang Zhe's hands were filled with fists, as if he had made a great determination: "Brother Wang and I hit it off right away, so I only dare to share such gossip with Brother Wang!"

Wang An nodded, with an attitude of listening patiently.

"My parents died when I was eight years old. Thanks to my uncle and aunt's kindness, they took me in as a parent. They spoiled me so much that they sent me to a private school to learn how to read. Today's achievements are all thanks to my uncle and aunt!" He took a deep breath, "Unexpectedly, in the first month of this year, the squire in the town came to collect the rent. The house had already prepared the rent money, but it was robbed the night before! There were only some copper coins left, and it was difficult to even eat. My aunt was worried that the squire would make things difficult, so she sent me to I stayed at a private school five miles away for a few nights. I didn’t know anything at the time, and I thought that my uncle and aunt drove me to the private school in the first month, and I lost my temper with them before leaving home.

After I lived in the private school for a few days, the aunt next door rushed to tell me to go back, and then I felt something was wrong!I can't wait to fly home through the clouds and fog.But... After all, it was still a step too late. "Zhang Zhezhi's voice was a little choked up, and he took a sip of wine, his face was full of pain, "That vicious squire!Seeing that my family could not pay the rent, they beat up my uncle and aunt and threw them in the house, and threatened that no one would be rescued within three days. The neighbors were afraid of the squire, so naturally they did not dare to visit.

Little did they know that those people were extremely ruthless, hurt the internal organs of my uncle and aunt, and there was no one to heal them... When I opened the door, they were all left with one breath, but they were still worried that I would be retaliated by the squire, and told me to hurry up escape from here. "Speaking of this, Zhang Zhezhi actually made a voice that seemed to be a smile but not a smile, or a cry that was not a cry, "At that time, I felt as if I was hit by a falling rock, and my mind went blank. I didn't even think of asking the squire to avenge them No.They were buried in a hurry, and they left the town after selling their land and houses.By the time I realized what I had done, I was far from the small town.

At that time, I knew that it was useless to be upset, and that I was too weak to fight against the squire.So he thought about how to avenge his uncle and aunt all the way. He wanted to go to Beijing to take the imperial examination, but he didn't have much money to spend.I also want to go down to the south of the Yangtze River to do some business. After I have some power, I will go to the squire to settle accounts! He shook his head, "It's not that I don't want to accept Brother Wang's kindness, it's just that the family feud is mortal and must be reported!" "

Hearing Zhang Zhezhi's words, Wang An's doubts were resolved.Why is he unwilling to work in the government, why is he so poor and so proud.It's all life so far, forced by the situation, but I feel a little pity for him.

"My virtuous brother, please give me your condolences. My uncle and aunt regard you as more important than life. They are not asking you to find a chance to fight that squire to the death, but wishing you to escape from disputes and live happily." He thought for a moment , why not tell Zhang Zhezhi that this world is dangerous, "Besides, this Jiangnan is not as gentle as you see it. The third master has suffered so much in the past to achieve today's achievements. What's more, you are a little scholar who can't lift your shoulders and resist. ? I also thought it was easy to break into the rivers and lakes, and I didn’t realize that life was not easy until my head was broken and bleeding. If the third master hadn’t rescued me, I, Wang An, would have died a long time ago!”

Hearing what he said, Zhang Zhezhi spilled some wine on the table with a shake of his hands: "What do you think, Brother Wang?"

"Brother Yu is not boasting. There is no better way out than entering the mansion right now." Seeing that Zhang Zhezhi was still hesitating, Wang An even said, "The Wang family is in the south of the Yangtze River, so it can be regarded as the best backer. Not to mention other things , you have to solve your own food and clothing first. Besides, the Wang family treats everyone extremely kindly, so you don't have to worry about being bullied. Besides, you are a good brother I have recognized. Brother Yu, I am the manager of the Wang family, and I will definitely help you with some small favors. As long as you can handle the affairs of the mansion well, move forward step by step, and one day ask the third master to speak, the little squire will definitely be at ease!"

"Then I..." Zhang Zhezhi finally felt a little moved when he heard it, and subconsciously stretched out his hand to grab Wang An, "Brother Wang...I..."

If you were allowed to enter the mansion so easily, I'm afraid you will be too arrogant and defiant in the future.Wang An patted his hand, with a comforting smile on his face, but he said hahaha: "It would be great if you would agree! Brother Yu is just waiting for this sentence from Brother Yu! If there are too many people in our house You are a talented person! You will surely flourish!"

"Then when will I enter the mansion?" Wang An's words seemed to give Zhang Zhezhi a life-saving straw. At this moment, he had already lost his previous arrogance and was afraid of missing this opportunity.

"Brother, don't worry, the mansion has only started recruiting people in the past few days, and some things have not been settled. After three days, when everything is perfect, brother, come back to today's place. Brother Yu, I will definitely wait for you!" Three days said Short is not short, long is not long.Let him hang out for a few days, let him be anxious and anxious, and see how dangerous the world is, how difficult the opportunity given by the magistrate is.

Here, Wang An has turned around thousands of times, but Zhang Zhezhi regarded him as a confidant, and kept holding his hand to thank him, almost kneeling down to salute!Wang An stopped Zhang Zhezhi from thanking him, and then talked about the rules of the mansion in a pleasant manner, and the image of a close friend became more and more vivid.It caused Zhang Zhe to scream one after another, almost crying.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Zhezhi's actions greatly touched Wang An's nerves. He didn't want to see a man pissing, and suddenly felt a little unhappy: "Young brother, don't get too excited, so as not to hurt your body." He turned his head and looked Glancing out of the window, "We were too involved in talking, and it was getting late before we knew it. I don't care, I'm just afraid that my brother will miss the rest time, and his spirit will not be good after three days."

Zhang Zhezhi was originally a smart person, if he left it in the past, he would definitely notice the impatience in Wang An's mouth.It's just that at this time, Wang An has been regarded as a close friend, and he easily believed Wang An's words: "Thanks to Brother Wang's reminder, I will go back and rest well, and I will live up to Brother Wang's expectations in three days!"

Wang An was a little impatient for a long time. He, a majestic manager and this poor boy, wasted so much time. If he didn't have that kind of interest in his heart, he would have already turned away and left.He pretended to be emotional, stood up and said goodbye to Zhang Zhezhi, and disappeared at the door of the restaurant in a few steps, how could he have any grace?Not to mention that in order to make Zhang Zhezhi feel the dangers in the world, he also ordered the Lianjiazi in the mansion to give Zhang Zhezhi a little bit of pain, which is obvious.

However, Zhang Zhezhi's victory lies in his good mentality. Wang An's departure did not make his mood worse, but made him feel more at ease.Oops, I finally don't have to put on that grateful face anymore.He bought himself a few glasses of wine, took a few sips and felt unhappy, so he simply poured it into his mouth directly from the jug.How could a jug of wine hold up to such an awesome drink? It didn't take long before he opened his mouth and yelled: "Xiaoer! Bring some more wine!"

The little errand ran up, only to find that he was a drunk, his face was dripping with water: "I told you, sir, you can drink if you want, but you should pay the bill first!"

Zhang Zhe was taken aback. He didn't expect Wang An to leave in such a hurry that he forgot to pay the bill? !His back felt cold, and he smiled flatteringly at Xiao Er.Xiaoer knew what was going on when he saw his smile, raised his eight-character eyebrows and began to scold: "I said you look like a human being, and you do such indecent things like not paying for meals?! What a human being!" Don't be fooled by appearances! You little white faces, can you think that you can eat and drink with a good skin?! Impossible! Let me tell you..."

This Xiaoer should have suffered a lot of anger on weekdays, and once he had something to vent, he couldn't stop.Zhang Zhezhi groaned in his heart. Hearing that the little girl was out of breath and cursing without bending over for a stick of incense, he almost knelt down and begged him to forgive him.After finally waiting for Xiao Er to finish cursing, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Xiao Er's clear cry: "Come here, someone wants to eat for nothing!"

What kind of evil did this do... Zhang Zhezhi put his hands on his forehead in pain, trying to leave a final image.Of course, his image didn't last long. After a burst of fists and kicks, a white "big" character appeared at the back door of the restaurant. The tune is walking crookedly.

The result of being beaten violently after drinking was that the next morning his whole body seemed to be falling apart. No matter how good Zhang Zhezhi's martial arts were, he couldn't escape this rule.He had no choice but to lie on the bed and pretend to be dead, Ren Zhaoxian knocked on the door loudly and didn't respond at all.Wang An is not a good guy. Although the three-day deadline will not cause any major incidents, it is still easy for people to be disowned.I am a "weak scholar", and martial arts are absolutely unusable.If he and Zhao Xianmao wandered around rashly, they might encounter some strange things.But pretending to be dead is also a physical job. If you really want to sleep to death completely, you can forget it, but you have to be careful and careful. If Wang An sends someone to come to the door, it will be another tough battle to fight.

I don't know if it's Zhang Zhezhi's luck, or those thugs have too low IQ.He successfully hid in the room for two days, and he also summed up some experience on how to be more like a corpse.He pretended to be dead and pretended to be more and more like him. He could lie down for several hours without moving a finger. If it wasn't for Zhao Xian talking about strange people and strange things outside the door every day, it made his heart itch so hard that he couldn't help but squeak. A few times.No one would think there were any living people in the room.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and the corpse on the bed finally got up slowly, after some grooming, it finally looked like a human being.As soon as the folding fan was opened, he stepped out of the room with a figure of eight steps.Passing by Zhao Xian's room on the way, I still couldn't help but leave him a sentence "I will see you later".

Once I go, I don't know when I will be able to come out.Although you, Zhao Xian, have no ambitions, you are still a good person.I, Zhang Zhezhi, am not a madman, you should stay far away from the disputes in the rivers and lakes!But after thinking about it, what if Zhao Xian is very willing to intervene in it and take pride in it?That's all, everyone's fate is unpredictable, so why am I messing around here?Could it be that after pretending to be a scholar for a few days, he really thinks that he has a heart that cares about the country and the people?He shook his head, and strode forward again.

After three days, the recruiting place was still packed with crowds.Zhang Zhezhi took out his skill of pretending to be a dead body, squeezed to the front with great difficulty, and bowed his hands to the servants who were standing on both sides to maintain order: "Little Zhang Zhezhi, the manager of Wang An Wang asked me to come, can you please inform me? "

The two family members first looked Zhang Zhe up and down, and then looked at each other for a while, and then walked in with heavy steps like a thousand catties.Zhang Zhezhi originally thought that with Wang An present today, he would be able to deal with no matter how difficult it was, but he didn't expect that he would soon be heartbroken as soon as he came.It was so easy to get Wang Anpan out, and the pretentious greetings must be indispensable.

Wang An originally planned to give Zhang Zhezhi a "generous gift", but today the third master became interested and said that he wanted to see the new recruits, so he had no choice but to give up his original idea and let Zhang Zhezhi enter the house first.The third master has always had a weird temper. Although the few people in charge of recruiting are one of a kind, but Zhang Zhezhi's talent has been experienced by himself, so he has a little bit of confidence. It's good to add up to the number. At critical times, in case this kid is smart enough , but also to keep the third master from getting into a rage.

Zhang Zhezhi didn't know that the first time he entered the mansion today, he was "important". As soon as he stepped into the gate of the Wang family, he was pushed into a hall by Wang An.Just listen to Wang An's instructions: "Today the third master is coming to see the new recruits, my virtuous brother must behave better, be more careful, and don't make the third master angry."

Zhang Zhezhi nodded, and stood obediently among a row of people, keeping his head down and not knowing what he was thinking.The newcomers around are very excited, you discuss with each other sentence by sentence.Someone suddenly growled, "The third master is here!" They all fell silent in an instant.Zhang Zhezhi hasn't said a word since just now, and now he feels better when he's quiet.His back was a little uncomfortable, and he was about to relax, when he saw a pair of gold and black boots appearing obliquely in front of him.He took a deep breath, and continued to straighten his back. Looking up from the boots, it was a white brocade, embroidered with a few floral flowers in dark patterns, and then up... Zhang Zhezhi didn't look up any more, he controlled himself eyes, with a timid look.

The few brave ones also shut their mouths, but their eyes were still fixed on the third master.Zhang Zhezhi thought it was funny, why, seeing that the third master in your heart is round and round like a reckless man, aren't you disappointed?

Before he could think about it, a strange and sharp voice came from the right: "What's your name?"

"I... my name is Guibao, Guibao's Gui, Guibao's treasure!"

"How old is this year?"

"I'll be eighteen in the middle of next month!"

"Why do you want to enter the Wang family?"

"Because, because my mother said, once you enter the Wang family, you will not have to worry about food and clothing, and you can also marry a beautiful wife!"

The third master hummed lightly, which was his answer.After taking a step, I started to ask the next person, and the questions were all the same.Most of them were a little nervous and stuttered in their answers.There is no shortage of talented people, but Zhang Zhezhi is amazed by a few words.Naturally, he already had a template for answering in his heart, so don't stammer too much, making it appear that he is short-sighted and impatient.Don't be sharp and eye-catching.Just answer honestly and honestly.

But things are not always as simple as imagined. When Zhang Zhezhi felt a gaze cast on his head, he planned to raise his head and answer seriously.But he didn't hear the third master speak immediately, only felt that his breath suddenly became extremely unstable, and said for a while: "You...raise your head."
