Zhao Defang's road to the virtuous king

After Zhang Si sent Defang and Baili back to Longcheng, he got more than one or two taels of silver from Defang, but Zhang Si was so happy that he led the donkey cart and bought four big pieces of fried cakes, and then another A piece of meat and ten eggs, driving the donkey cart and humming a little song back to Caijia Village, and shouted as soon as he entered the door, "Old woman! Look what I bought for you?"

The old lady walked out of the door slowly, and saw that Zhang Si was holding a big fried cake in his hands, and there were meat and eggs on the donkey cart, and she couldn't help being very surprised, "Old man, where did you get the money to buy these? Are you dying?"

"Old lady, the money was given by Mr. Zhao yesterday. He said it was the car money, the meal money and the house money together. It's more than one tael." Zhang Si took out the money bag, "Look, there's still a lot left."

The old lady took the money bag and said with a smile, "Old man, we have really met a nobleman, how about this, let's repair the car, and buy some rice for storage, this money can be spent for a long time."

"Okay, okay, I'll do it tomorrow."

The next day, Zhang Si went to the city to buy a very strong car tarpaulin and iron nails, and bought a large bag of rice. When he returned to Caijia Village, the old lady sewed a new car tarpaulin, and Zhang Si nailed the car tarpaulin to the donkey. After feeding a lot of food, I was ready to rest for a few days, and then used the repaired donkey cart to do more work to make money. Who knew that Zhang Si's incident was reported to Cai Erhuai by Cai Erhuai's relatives in the village in just two days. The fourth child made a fortune, and Cai Erhuai's eyes turned red when he heard that he was rich, and immediately led his servants into Zhang's fourth family's house, "Zhang Laosi! Come out!"

Zhang Si and his wife ran out quickly, "You...what do you want to do?"

"What are you doing?" Cai Erhuai and Zhang Si "I heard that you have become rich, so should you pay back the money you owe me?"

"Get rich? Not rich, I have no money for you."

"No?" Cai Erhuai waved his hand, "Search for me!"

More than a dozen family members searched all over the house and courtyard, throwing things crackling everywhere, and then found a bag of rice, the remaining piece of meat, and six eggs. Cai Erhuai pointed to the rice grains and said, If you didn’t make a fortune, where did the rice, meat, and eggs come from?”

"I bought it by pulling a cart to earn money."

Cai Erhuai looked at the donkey cart, "Yes, your broken donkey cart has also been renewed, so you have earned a lot of money, right?"

"Cai Erhuai, this is my house, you should leave!"

"Yo ho, what's the matter, the rich talk loudly, right?" Cai Erhuai grabbed the money bag on Zhang Si's waist, "Is this money bag yours?"

"Give it to me!"

The servant grabbed Zhang Si, and Cai Erhuai looked at it, "This purse is well-made, and how much is it worth?" Then he opened it and looked, "Hey, it's more than one or two taels of silver, Mr. Zhang, I'll keep the money. But you still owe me three taels, I will give you three days, if you don’t pay back the money, beware of your old life!”

"Give me back the money! Give me back!" Zhang Si pulled Cai Erhuai, Cai Erhuai pushed Zhang Si away, "You guys! Pull the donkey cart away!"

The servant went to pull the donkey cart, but the old lady hurriedly stopped, "You can't do this!"

"Get out of the way, old man!" Jia Ding kicked the old lady down. After struggling a few times, the old lady passed out. Zhang Si saw it and ran over quickly, "Old woman! What's wrong with you, old woman! Wake up!"

The donkey was also frightened, and kept barking, and the neighbors who were watching also said, "Hurry up and find the doctor, and don't kill anyone."
