Chapter 46 Elm Head

Zhao Xiaoshan originally got up early and wanted to go to his master's house, but halfway there he heard someone talking about something going on at Li Qingyou's house. He couldn't care about anything else at the moment, so Sayazi came running over.

Unexpectedly, he was blocked by his master.

At this time, the master knocked him to the ground with a big neck, his head was buzzing, and he was completely stunned.

Having been beaten for many years, he had developed a conditioned reflex. Now he was curled up on the ground motionless with his head in his hands, allowing Zhang Carpenter to punch and kick him.

"Stop it. If you dare to commit another crime again, I will take you to the Yamen." Li Qingyou was extremely anxious, but she did not expect that Carpenter Zhang would be so cruel and dare to attack openly in other people's homes.

Carpenter Zhang is still saying the same thing, Zhao Xiaoshan is his apprentice, and his death will be in vain.

Most people were kind-hearted, and many people couldn't stand it when they saw him mistreating his apprentices so much, so they spoke out against him one after another. Two young men also stepped forward and pulled Carpenter Zhang away.

Li Qingyou hurriedly ran over and helped Zhao Xiaoshan up.

"Why do you beat people?" Li Qingyou knew that there was no reason to argue with people like Carpenter Zhang, so she simply turned to everyone and said loudly: "This Carpenter Zhang is so ungrateful that he treats his apprentices as slaves and doesn't even give him a meal. Zhao Xiaoshan's mother is sick.

I wanted to borrow fifty cents from him to get some medicine, but he beat me up severely..."

As he spoke, he pulled open Zhao Xiaoshan's sleeve, revealing the bruises on it, "Everyone, look at this. This is the one who was beaten by Carpenter Zhang a few days ago. Can you tell me, is he still a human being?"

This is truly conclusive evidence.

Everyone has children. If their children were abused like this, who could bear it?

For a time, Carpenter Zhang became the target of public criticism, drowning people with his saliva. How could he bear this?

Pointing at Zhao Xiaoshan and then at Li Qingyou, you haven't come up with an answer for a long time.

However, Zhao Xiaoshan stood up and knelt down in front of Carpenter Zhang, "Master, I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have taken over the job privately without going through the master, but Sister Li gave me fifty Wen.

Mother is taking medicine, but I can’t take other people’s money in vain..."

There were boos all around again. The master did not lend money but an outsider did. It was really unpopular.

Carpenter Zhang's face was bruised and white. Today, he has lost all his dignity. He threatened to drive Zhao Xiaoshan out of the school. He pointed at Zhao Xiaoshan and Li Qingyou, "You guys are colluding to trick me. There is no way to hide from debts. Let me tell you, that mahogany

You have to pay for the cabinet."

Li Qingyou is funny, why?

However, Zhao Xiaoshan kowtowed to the ground, "I am willing to pay compensation."

There was an uproar all around.

Li Qingyou frowned, is this kid careless?

Just as she was about to speak again, Adi grabbed her sleeves and shook her head. One of them was willing to be beaten, and the other was willing to suffer. If they forced themselves forward, they would not only fail to get good results, but would instead end up complaining.

Li Qingyou naturally knows this truth, but...

well!

"Three years of apprenticeship and two years of service. The apprentice is willing to pay this money as repayment for the three years of teaching to the master." Zhao Xiaoshan looked serious, but his words were a little awkward because he had just been slapped.

The onlookers praised him, saying that this kid was kind and kind, but it was a pity that he followed such a bullshit master.

Zhang Carpenter also had a look of astonishment on his face. No one knows the situation of Zhao Xiaoshan's family better than him. The orphans and widowers can hardly even eat, so what compensation can they get?

Furthermore, in the past three years, this child has been respectful to him, obeyed his orders, and never dared to disobey him. People's hearts are full of flesh, and there is always some affection between master and disciple.

But when he thought that he was helping outsiders deceive him, Carpenter Zhang became very angry, not to mention that it was only a dozen taels of silver.

"You can remember what you said." After saying this, Zhang Carpenter left.

The troublemaker left, and everyone watching also dispersed.

Li Qingyou called Zhao Xiaoshan into the room, threw a wet cloth to wipe his face, and said angrily: "Are you stupid?"

She thought it was a bit too much when Adi said he had a thick head, but now it seems that he hit the nail on the head, and the kid is completely stupid.

"I'm not stupid." Zhao Xiaoshan's words affected the injury on his face, and he grinned in pain, but his eyes were very serious, "Once a teacher, you will always be a father. It was the master who taught me this art of eating.

I have to repay him."

Li Qingyou shook his head. The child is a good child, but it is a pity that he is just a piece of wood.

"Then what are you going to do now?" Li Qingyou felt worried for him, "With so much money, I can't help you even if I want to."

They also have too much time to take care of themselves now.

Zhao Xiaoshan lowered his head and said after a long while: "I'm going to kowtow to them and beg them for some grace. I will definitely pay them back."

The words were quite open, but their family, orphaned and widowed, had to rely on Xiaoshan Niang to wash and sew for people. The mother and son could not even have enough to eat, let alone so much money.

You must know that a family of seven or eight people only has about ten taels of silver a year.

Zhao Xiaoshan obviously thought of this as well, gritted his teeth and said, "In the worst case, I will give my life to them."

"What's the point of risking your life?" Li Qingyou couldn't help but roll her eyes, but couldn't stand his energy, "Besides, if you risk your life, have you thought about what your mother will do?"

Zhao Xiaoshan was speechless, and tears as big as beans fell down. They were the only two people in the family, and he was the support for his mother's life. If anything happened to him, his mother would not survive.

"There's no point crying now, let's think about what to do." Li Qingyou sighed, and from the corner of his eye, he saw the silent Adi beside him and glared at him.

Adi was stared at inexplicably and felt a little guilty.

In fact, no matter how you think of a solution, it is nothing more than coming to apologize, asking for forgiveness and asking for more grace.

"You can't go empty-handed when asking for help. You have to give gifts and talk easily." Li Qingyou felt worried for him, "Let's do this. Send a plate of tofu and say more nice things, and maybe they will agree because you are young.

Where is it?"

She didn't know what she was saying.

Zhao Xiaoshan kept his head down and said nothing, but the tears fell even more fiercely. Sister Li's sister treated him so well, and he couldn't do anything to repay her.

Adi, who had been silent until now, stood up now, "If I want to go, I have to go tomorrow, and I have to make more preparations. Why not..."

Li Qingyou nodded after listening, "It's an idea, then you should go quickly."

When I saw my brother turning around and running out, I remembered that he twisted his leg last night and quickly told him to run slower.

"I know." Adi's voice sounded far away in the yard.

Looking at his brother's bouncing back, and then at Zhao Xiaoshan who was obsessed with everything in the room, Li Qingyou shook his head.

The mold was not ready yet. Zhao Xiaoshan wiped away his tears and continued working. The master no longer wanted him, so he no longer had to go to the master's house. He stayed at Li's house all afternoon and finally finished the mold.
