Rebirth: Don't Be the Best

His Royal Highness Cheng Wang heard the cry of the child, and vaguely heard something frightened by insects, and immediately ran out of the room, apologizing to Zhang Shu and Li Muzhen.

"I'm sorry, Chengzhang is just too naughty. He dared to scare people with bugs. I'll teach him a lesson later." After he finished speaking, he saw Li Mujin and Zhang Shu's expressions twisted, as if they were holding back their laughter.

"My lord, you misunderstood, the one who was frightened was the little lord, it was our daughter who was not good..."

King Cheng was dumbfounded, and took a closer look. Zhang Qianjin lay in his father's arms with an aggrieved face, and his stupid son stood aside and cried loudly.

After a while, he broke out into a burst of laughter, intertwined with the louder cries of the little prince, and turned into a joyful duet.

Zhang Shu and Li Mujin looked at him strangely, and even Zhang Qianjin turned her head to the side, looking at him inexplicably.

"Finally someone in my family can control him. Usually, there is no one in the family that he is afraid of. If I want to teach him a lesson, someone will cry with me immediately. Now that the meeting is here, he can finally temper his temper. "

King Cheng was very afraid that he would raise a dude. Although he was more polite than ordinary dudes, he was still a dude.

He knelt down and hugged Zhao Chengzhang, and Zhao Chengzhang's small hands that were clenched into fists immediately wrapped around his neck, crying even louder.

The panic along the way, hearing people say that his father was seriously injured, and seeing people's sympathetic eyes, although he didn't understand the relationship, he also knew that if his father died, he might also be killed.

He lived in the palace all year round, and once saw the window of the little aunt whose mother died was opened in the winter. He wanted to sue, but no one paid any attention to him.In the end she died.

Fortunately, his father was not dead. The little prince used this emotion to vent himself desperately, unaware that he had been labeled a crybaby.

Zhang Qianjin was also a little wronged. It seemed that he had done something wrong. Others would definitely say that he was not a good boy.

He also cried, the voice is small, thin, but also very sad.

Zhang Shu took him from Li Mujin's arms and patted him, "My daughter is right, stop crying, feed the bugs you catch to the chicks, it's all right."

Zhang Qianjin choked with sobs and hummed, then went down to the ground, picked up crickets in one hand and earthworms in the other, and walked to the place where the chickens were kept in the northwest corner.

Zhao Chengzhang, who was crying, stopped crying abruptly, and he kicked his legs, "Father, I also want to see the chick, please let me down."

His tears are still in his eyes, but his expression is already excited. He has only seen common birds like peacocks, cranes, and swans, but he has never seen a chicken!

The chicks are fluffy, yellow, and look cute in balls.As soon as Zhang Qianjin threw the worm in, the chick immediately snatched it up.

The little prince stood outside and watched, thinking that this little chicken was much cuter than those birds in the imperial garden, and his hands were itchy again.

Zhang Qianjin watched the crybaby open the door, then went in to catch the chick, but he didn't make a sound, just watched him catch it.

Although the chick was nimble, he still couldn't outrun him, and was quickly caught.The little prince stroked the soft fur of the little yellow chicken, intoxicated by the touch.

"Cackling," came a cry from the corner.The little prince poked his head to look, and saw an ugly big chicken with its hair standing on end, which looked particularly fluffy. It stared blankly at this side, and walked over step by step with heavy steps.

The little prince didn't know what it was doing, but he was still touching the chick intoxicated.Zhang Qianjin thought for a while, and reminded him, "Put down the little chicken, the big chicken will hurt so much."

The little prince just now was frightened and cried by him with insects, and felt very shameless. Now that he heard him talk again, he snorted, "I'm not afraid!" Did not peck him.

Zhang Qianjin looked at him sympathetically, this crybaby was miserable.

The big chicken gradually approached the little prince and swooped violently...

"Wow..." The little prince was pecked by a chicken, and then he was chased and ran around. He was covered with either grass clippings or chicken feces, and his face was covered with snot from crying.It's a pity that I can't wear the new clothes I just changed for him at noon today.

Zhang Qianjin sighed, picked up the stick that Grandma Zhang used to poke the chicken, and stretched it over to help him drive the chicken away.The big chicken is still very friendly to the little owner who usually feeds it, and he took the little chicken away as soon as he swiped.

The little prince looked at Zhang Qianjin adoringly, he was not afraid of such a fierce beast, it was too powerful!Well, the little prince doesn't know that there is another animal in the world called the big white goose.

……

The little prince became Zhang Qianjin's follower, following his buttocks every day, he found that this place was much more fun than the palace.You can go to the back hillside to pick wild fruits, and you can go to small puddles to catch small fish.There are many crickets at night, and in summer, there are fireflies.

The cicadas on the tree kept barking, and they followed Zhou Dabao to catch them with a net. After returning home, Zhou Dabao's father, Uncle Lai Wang, would bake them for them. He never knew that it was edible!

Picking mushrooms after the rain is also very happy, every time he picks the biggest ones!

Here, no one in the palace told him over and over again that this cannot be done and that cannot be done.And no one would look at him reproachfully because his clothes were dirty.

Here, father and king can be seen every day.The father is also like Qianjin's father, who can hug him and ride him on a big horse.

Here, no one gave way to him on the surface, but stayed away from him in private, as if he was a pest.He even fought with Zhou Dabao!Although he lost, it was all because his younger brother came to help. If he also had a brother who fought with him, he would definitely not lose!

The little prince who lost the fight cried a lot, and then practiced with Zhang Shu every day. He also wanted to be as strong as Qianjin's father.

In less than two months, the little prince has grown taller, and the little fat on his body has also gone down. He has changed from a fat white guy to a black guy, and he looks much better than before.

The days passed while he was recuperating, and I don't know how King Cheng did it. The group of imperial doctors boiled medicine every day, and they still looked worried, as if he could not be cured.

Indeed, in the past two months, I don't know how many papers about King Cheng's serious illness were handed in, and finally reported his safety at the beginning of June, saying that he would return to Beijing soon.

On the day of returning to Beijing, the little prince suddenly disappeared.No one could find out where he was, and everyone panicked.King Cheng sighed, walked up to Zhang Qianjin and squatted down, "Qianjin, tell Uncle, where did brother go?"

Zhang Qianjin lowered her head and remained silent, her eyes were also a little red.The little friend who has been with him day and night is about to leave, and he is a little bit reluctant.

Zhang Shu also squatted down, touched his head, saw his unhappy appearance, and comforted him softly, "Good girl, brother Chengzhang misses him so much, you tell him to go back and see his mother, he will be right back gone."

"I won't come back...this is not his home...he said...he will be beaten when he goes back, and he will be locked up to prevent him from going out...he said he can't go home." Zhang Qianjin said and cried up.

King Cheng felt a little complicated, why did he want to go back?But as a royal family, he had to go.Chengzhang staying here will only harm the Zhang family.

Qianjin sniffed and stopped crying, "Brother Chengzhang...hiding under the bed in the house in the backyard."

The expressions of the adults were a little surprised. The house hadn't been demolished, and the things inside were old. Children always regarded it as a haunted house, and that kid dared to go there.

When the guards brought up the little prince, he was full of anger and kicked them. When he saw Zhang Qianjin, he cried and called him a spy and betrayed him.

The little prince was taken away with his head covered in cobwebs. The long motorcade stopped here for more than two months before finally leaving.

Zhang Qianjin lay on Zhang Shu's shoulders and stood at the door to watch them. He was out of breath from crying, he was reluctant to leave his friends, and he also felt guilty of betraying his friends.

Zhang Shu sighed, and there are still many days to say goodbye...

Qianjin is not in a good mood recently. In order to make him happy, his uncle gave him the twin brothers. After calling Zhang Erbao for more than three months, he has become lively. The three younger brothers exhausted Qianjin's energy. I didn't think about the little prince anymore.

Although Zhang Shu was injured today, the spring potato business still made a lot of money. In the name of the prince, he sold more than 1 catties just to those officials. I don’t know how they will eat it back. .

The sour radish business is back on track, and Zhang's small shop has also reopened, because the prince gave his family a plaque, and the common people have to come to taste it even for this plaque.

Zhang Shu, who has made a lot of money, looked at his two children, the two children next door, and the two children of his brother-in-law's family, and finally thought of one thing. There is no school in their village.

In fact, this is very normal, because there are no such things in the surrounding villages.But after Zhang Shu came back from the village where he bought the land, he had this idea in his mind.

There were many rich people in that village. They invited a master back and built a big tile-roofed house as a school.When he was looking at the crops in the field, he heard a group of children reading, "At the beginning of human beings, nature is kind..."

He did read some books, but the place where he studied was in the town, and he spent three or two hours going back and forth to study every morning. It was very hard, and he didn't go there.

If their village can have a school of their own like this village, then their village will also produce some scholars who will honor their ancestors when they grow up.

But the school is not something he can run alone, so he has to ask the village head for his opinion first.

The village chief is smoking dry tobacco at home, and rarely enjoys this leisure time.Seeing Zhang Shu entering the door with something in his hand, he was stunned for a moment, "What's the matter? Do you want to buy the land again?"

Zhang Shu came to him several times, every time for this.

Zhang Shu handed the things to the village head's wife, and said with a smile, "It's kind of like that."

"Why, which piece of land are you looking at again? What business are you going to do?"

"It's not for business." Zhang Shu shook his head, then approached the village chief, "Village chief, what do you think of me running a school?"

The village chief didn't realize it at first, but after reacting, he opened his mouth, pointed at Zhang Shu and said, "You are amazing, start a school? Do you know how to teach or should I teach?"

The kid in his family failed the Jinshi examination last year, and he has to wait another three years. This will be in the capital.It's not that he wants to pour cold water. Except for his family's San'er, everyone else in the village can only know a few words. If you want to teach people to read, how can you have that level?

"I want to invite a scholar to teach."

"Do you know the price of a scholar? In the village where you bought the land, the scholar is still a local. They charge two taels of silver a month, and he has to collect the monthly offerings of the students. Once calculated, it is more than three or four taels. "

The village head calculated the accounts for him, Zhang Shu thought, it seems that there are not too many.

Looking at his expression, the village chief knew what he was thinking, "Zhang Shu, I grew up with you kid. You used to be awkward and out of shape, but you have taken more responsibility in recent years. I know you are a Okay, I want to do something for the village."

"But this matter, you can't take care of it alone. If you take care of everything, everyone will remember you for a while, and maybe it will be over time."

"Everyone doesn't cherish things that don't cost money, and maybe they will blame you for delaying the children's time to do farm work."

For one thing, children know that they don’t need to spend money, so they may not pay so much attention to reading, and parents don’t think it is precious, so naturally they won’t vigorously urge them.

Secondly, when the farming season is busy, especially when making vermicelli, every household is short of people. I am afraid that the school will be astigmatized by then. Anyway, reading does not cost money.

Reading is a long-term task, so don't slack off. When the time comes, there will be a school to read a few words. It may be difficult for them to read a good book, and it may affect those who really want to study.

Zhang Shu discovered that the village head is a man of great wisdom who can see through everything, especially human nature.
