Still remembers me? Initially we have seen in the town/subdues, you were so in a flash big” 面对云景的目光,张长贵一咬牙,心道事已至此,不管怎么样,也只能硬着头皮上了,抛开心头那些纠结的想法,面对云景的目光,他笑道:“你叫云景对吧？还记得我吗？当初我们在镇上见过,一晃眼你都这么大啦” „I remember you, Uncle Zhang, these years you are good”, the Yun Jing nod said with a smile, turned over/stood up conducts the back to jump down from the cow. “我记得你,张叔叔,这些年你还好吧”,云景点头笑道,翻身从牛背上跳了下来。 Yunshan saw his movement, the heart mentioned the throat, for fear that falling, but he put out a hand to meet, Yun Jing safely has stood in the ground. 云山见他的动作,心都提到了嗓子眼,生怕摔着,但他伸手去接的时候,云景已经稳稳当当的站在了地上。 Zhang Changgui looks accidentally/surprisingly Yun Jing this tiny tot said with amazement: „Do you still remember me unexpectedly?” 张长贵意外的看着云景这小不点惊讶道:“你居然还记得我？” Must know that at that time Yun Jing was only two years old, although displayed intelligently, but normal should not remember that that small matter was right, Zhang Changgui was also reasonable surprisedly. 要知道那时云景才两岁啊,虽然表现得聪慧,可正常来说应该不记得那么小的事情才对,张长贵惊讶也在情理之中。 „I have come to a town/subdues before then, naturally remembers that Uncle Zhang”, Yun Jing said with a smile. “我在此之前就来过一次镇上,当然记得张叔叔啦”,云景笑道。 Is because has only come to a town/subdues, therefore remembers that profoundly? In Zhang Changgui scratching the head heart secretly thought. 是因为只来过一次镇上,所以才记忆那么深刻吗？张长贵挠挠头心中暗道。 This little while pulls greatly black Yunlin to interrupt to ask disturbedly: „Long expensive/noble little elder brother, we are pulling the cow in the past Mr. Li the family/home, can this be not quite good? Or do I make the hill wait here? The cow did not pull” 这会儿牵着大黑的云林插嘴忐忑问:“长贵小哥,我们牵着牛过去李先生家,这样会不会不太好？要不我让小山在这里等着？牛就不牵去了” „Uncle Lin of being all right, you felt relieved that Mr. Li family/home, but the wealthy and prominent family wealthy and powerful family, the entrance has the place of special hitch draft animal, when the time comes also some people safeguard specially, will not have the matter”, Zhang Changgui then said. “没事的林叔,您就放心吧,李先生家可是高门大户,门口有专门栓牲口的地方,到时候还有人专门看管,不会有事儿的”,张长贵回头道。 „This”, Yunlin feels relieved. “这样啊”,云林放心下来。 Such a interrupts, Their group was actually peaceful, under Zhang Changgui leads, the respective belt/bring the complex mood is going to the Li Qiu home. 这么一打岔,他们一行倒是安静了下来,在张长贵带领下,各自带着复杂的心情前往李秋家。 Li Qiu they did not sell the malt sugar on Yunlin initially that street, near relatively quiet the place situated in the town, has more than 20 minutes of foot regulations from memorial arch there on the contrary, is an independent courtyard, the entrance has a broad path to go nonstop to the town/subdues. 李秋家并不在当初云林他们卖麦芽糖的那条街上,反倒是处于镇子边上相对清静的地方,距离牌坊那里有二十多分钟的脚程,是一个单独的院子,门口有一条宽阔的道路直通镇里。 Around his family/home is this independent courtyard, this place looked the place that the rich and powerful families huddle together, on the road often can see the bailiff to go on patrol. 他家周围都是这种单独的院子,这个地方一看就是有钱有势人家扎堆的地方,路上不时能看到捕快巡逻。 Yun Jing their arrivals, but also was asked to cross by the bailiff specially, knew that is goes to Mr. Li the talent of family/home not to feel embarrassed them. 云景他们的到来,还被捕快特意上前询问过,得知是去李先生家的才没有为难他们。 The bailiffs inquired very carefully, not only found out the purpose in coming, but also asked their origin, the big water buffalo of Yun Jing has asked that the certificate when good Yunlin brought to be buying cow the government authorities writes up to be then all right initially. 捕快询问得很仔细,不但问明来意,还问了他们的来历,就连云景家的大水牛都问过,还好云林带着当初买牛时官府出具的凭证这才没事儿。 Brings to buy the good certificate along, Yunlin is so actually careful, but before is comes, inquires in the village to have ox others, having the draft animal journey should better to take the certificate...... 随身带着买牛凭证,倒不是云林那么细心,而是来之前就打听过村里有牛的人家,带牲口出行最好带上凭证…… Look if no certificate, Yun Jing guessed through the bailiff vigilant vision, cannot do well who will be regarded to steal the cow the yamen to interrogate, after all this surroundings live is not the ordinary families, the bailiff does not dare to treat it lightly. 这不,要是没有凭证的话,云景通过捕快警惕的目光猜测,搞不好会被当成偷牛的拉去衙门盘问一番,毕竟这周围住的都不是普通人家,捕快可不敢掉以轻心。 In the final analysis, this place is not Yunlin their type of rube should come, the bright eye looked is incompatible with here environment. 说到底,这种地方就不是云林他们这种泥腿子应该来的,明眼一看就和这里的环境格格不入。 Shortly after Yun Jing Their group arrived at Li Qiu main house gate, sizes up slightly, Yun Jing experiences this world's wealthy families. 不久后云景他们一行就来到了李秋家门口,稍微打量,云景算是见识到了这个世界的有钱人家。 The courtyard of Li Qiu is big, the brilliant gate has a about five meters width, on the bright red front door covered entirely the copper nail, about the entrance also one meter high stone lions, near zhang (3.33 m) high fence extends dozens meters! 李秋家的院子不小,光大门就有近五米宽,朱红的大门上布满了铜钉,门口左右还有一米多高的石狮,近丈高的围墙延伸出去数十米！ Under the stone steps outside that front door, about side has the stone columns of 45 hitch draft animals, again front is half the open area of basketball court size, it can be imagined, if his family/home has what celebration, person entrance piece that comes to congratulate does not only know lively pushes. 那大门外的石阶下,左右一边有四五根栓牲口的石柱,再前面是半个篮球场大小的开阔地带,可想而知,若是他家有什么喜事的话,前来祝贺的人光门口这片就不知道得挤得多热闹。 When Yun Jing sizes up his family/home, Zhang Changgui told them to say low voice, according to his knowledge, what this Mr. Li lived was four enters the courtyard that light/only the room had over a hundred! 在云景打量他家的时候,张长贵小声告诉他们说,据他了解,这李先生家住的可是四进的院子,光房间就有上百之多！ Hears this, Yun Jing sighed, this is the true wealthy families, true wealthy and prominent family wealthy and powerful families. 闻此,云景不禁感叹,这才是真正的有钱人家,真正的高门大户啊。 In addition the Niujiao Town like this small place has like this luxurious families, what appearance are that these true rich and powerful family wealthy and powerful families? 牛角镇这样的小地方尚且有这样的奢华人家,那那些真正的豪门大户得是什么样子？ Thinks that Small Stream Village these seem like the private residence that even the wind can blow down, the Yun Jing heart cannot help but sigh with emotion, no matter which world, poor forever is the floor people. 想到小溪村那些看上去连风都能吹倒的民房,云景不由得心头感慨,不管哪个世界,穷的永远都是底层人。 „stretch/open Xiaoge, are they...... the people who you must bring?” “张小哥,他们……就是你要带来的人？” When Yun Jing Their group appears in Li Qiu main house gate, some side gate people go out ask. 当云景他们一行出现在李秋家门口的时候,侧门有人走出开口询问道。 He was several other day with the servant of that Li Zhang Changgui negotiated, seemed like 40 years old, the appearance was quite prosperous-looking, put on unexpectedly was the silk fabrics clothes. 他就是几日前和张长贵交涉的那个李家的下人,看上去四十来岁,长相颇为富态,穿的居然是绸缎衣服。 Obvious that person early is waiting, by Yun Jing they, as soon as appears comes out to question. 明显那人早早的就等着了,是以云景他们一出现就出来问话。 He when spoke with Zhang Changgui, is sizing up Yun Jing their complexion slightly startled, the vision glance, framed finally on Yun Jing, the heart said that this was that calls the person who Zhang Changgui must recommend? 他在和张长贵说话的时候,打量着云景他们脸色微微愕然,目光扫视,最终定格在了云景身上,心说这就是那叫张长贵要推荐的人？ How is such an ordinary peasant family baby! 怎么是这样一个普普通通的农家娃娃！ Before then, this Li servant has thought person who Zhang Changgui brings, he thinks, coming the person not to say home background how, at least was also the young youngster who ten years old was literate upward slightly, what matter now takes care of an ordinary peasant family child to be? 在此之前,这个李家下人想过很多张长贵带来的人,他想,来人不说家庭情况如何,至少也得是十岁往上稍微识字的小少年吧,如今带着一个普普通通的农家小孩算什么事儿？ Seemingly 5 or 6-year-old, black, such child estimate does not know the character, how to accept master's testing school? 看上去五六岁,黑黑的,这样的小孩估计连字都不识,如何接受老爷的考校？ „Zhao manager, this is person who I must recommend”, Zhang Changgui hurries to go forward to talk, was saying also then looked urged to Yun Jing: „Little Jing, has seen Zhao manager quickly” “赵管事,这就是我要推荐的人”,张长贵赶紧上前搭话,说着还回头看向云景催促道:“小景,快来见过赵管事” „Has seen Zhao manager”, Yun Jing hurries to go forward two steps to look opposite party nondescript salutes to say submissively. “见过赵管事”,云景赶紧上前两步看着对方不伦不类的拱手行礼道。 Looks at the Yun Jing saluting movement, Zhao manager corners of the mouth slightly cannot be observed pulls out, the heart said that this child is really did not have good manners the peasant family child of number, where to salute to have this with the elder? 看着云景的行礼动作,赵管事嘴角微不可察的一抽,心说这小孩还真是个不懂礼数的农家小孩,和长辈行礼哪儿有这样的？ The heart he does not hug any hope that thought that also really such as the master said that today goes through the motions sincerely. 心头他已经不抱任何希望了,心想还真如老爷所说,今儿个真心只是走个过场。 Does not know Yun Jing that oneself make fun unknowingly, this little while heart also in consternation, this person named Zhao manager, since were in charge, in this Li should a little weight/quantity, how seem like is also to guard the door? 不知道自己不知不觉闹了笑话的云景,这会儿心头还在愕然,这个叫赵管事的人,既然是管事了,在这李家应该有点分量吧,怎么看上去也就是个看门的？ Changed mind Yun Jing one to want also to feel relaxed, in such rich people, guarding the door, but the face, making one have the weight/quantity wise person to guard the door is also fair, because such person knows how to maintain the face of main family, if really made some simpleminded fellows guard the door, wickedly when referred to being uncertain on the guest of visit. 转念云景一想也就释然了,在这样的大户人家,看门的可是脸面,让一个有分量有头脑的人来看门也是合情合理的,因为这样的人才知道如何维护主家的脸面,若真让一些头脑简单的家伙看门,指不定什么时候就恶了上门的客人呢。 Zhao manager after was sizing up Yun Jing slightly their eyes, the smile said: „You come with me, the master has been waiting for you” 赵管事在稍微打量了云景他们一眼后,微笑道:“你们跟我来吧,老爷已经等着你们了” In this time, Yun Jing that big water buffalo tail lifts exactly, crash-bang on drawing lump of cow dung...... 恰在此时,云景家那头大水牛尾巴一抬,哗啦啦的就拉了一坨牛粪…… Yunlin heart one startled, immediately uneasy say/way: „I...... I tidy up” 云林心头一惊,当即忐忑不安道:“我……我来收拾” Saying, him must take to hang the manure basket that the cow conducts the back, first cleans others entrance contamination, good thing that furthermore, the cow dung farms. 说着,他就要去拿挂牛背上的粪筐,一来是打扫人家门口的污秽,再则,牛粪可是种地的好东西。 However at this time Yunlin more is anxious, because if cow dung issue wicked others, thus kept them out by others, that may harm the big matter. 不过此时云林更多的则是不安,若因为牛粪问题恶了人家,从而被人家拒之门外的话,那可就误了大事儿了。 Who would have thought Zhao manager not only has not been angry, instead looked that the good words good language saying: „Elderly man you should not be busy at work, I make one tidy up, you come to be good with me by all means” 哪知赵管事不但没生气,反而看过来好言好语道:“老人家您别忙活了,我让人来收拾,你们只管跟我来就好” Saying, he shouts to the gate in: „little Song, came out to tidy up quickly, favored their cows while convenient, right, fed a fodder” 说着,他冲着门内喊道:“小宋,快出来收拾一下,顺便把他们的牛看好,对了,喂点草料” „Good Zhao manager”, quick has a youth of azure clothes skull cap to walk saying that after Zhao manager salutes, hurries from the Yunlin hand to receive ox rope. “好的赵管事”,很快就有一个青衣小帽的青年走出来说道,给赵管事行礼后,赶紧过来从云林手中接过牛绳。 Those images and scenes, put in order Yunlin helpless. 此情此景,整得云林一家不知所措。 Zhang Changgui opens the mouth to say in the nearby: „Uncle Lin, listens to Zhao manager, we go, do not let Mr. Li wait for a long time” 还是张长贵在边上开口道:“林叔,听赵管事的,我们进去吧,别让李先生久等了” Yunlin looked at one by others are pulling own big water buffalo, opens mouth some not to abandon said: „Good......” 云林看了一眼被别人牵着的自家的大水牛,张了张嘴有些不舍道:“那好吧……” Zhao manager shakes the head slightly somewhat does not know whether to laugh or cry, the heart said that also feared we did snatch your cow to be inadequate? 赵管事微微摇头有些哭笑不得,心说还怕我们抢了你的牛不成？ Then Yun Jing they entered Lijiayuanzi under Zhao manager leadership, what walked is the side gate...... 接下来云景他们在赵管事的带领下进入了李家院子,走的是侧门……
