Here's a mistake, I'll replace it tomorrow

It's a pity that Zhang Wanquan was unlucky, in those days outside the mouth, in order to make more money, he worked very hard, and some water and soil adaptation, after a long time, he became ill and fell ill. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Info waited for the business to be done, he breathed a sigh of relief, and the whole person couldn't hold on. He was sick for more than a month, and when his condition improved, he was already seriously injured, and the doctor said that he must have a good life and recuperate for a year or two, otherwise he will definitely leave the root of the disease, and I am afraid that it will affect Shouyuan in the future.

Zhang Wanquan did not dare to ignore it, so he could only stay in Chengde to recuperate. It's just that he still has an old mother's wife and weak son at home, and he can't rest assured, so he asked his friend, that is, Na Zhu Er, to bring the family book and silver to his hometown. It just so happened that Zhu Er made a lot of money, and he felt that it was better to do business outside the mouth than in the northwest, so he had the intention to move the family outside the mouth, and by the way, he brought a letter for Zhang Wanquan, which was just a gesture.

Who knew that three months later, this Zhu Er's turn around brought a bad news to Zhang Wanquan - the old lady of the Zhang family died after a few months due to the aggravation of her condition. In order to get a doctor for her, Zhang Wanquan's wife exhausted her family wealth and owed a lot of foreign debts. When her mother-in-law died, her body couldn't hold on, and it is said that before the first seven days passed, she had a miscarriage and hemorrhage, and she was not saved, and she died twice. And her and Zhang Wanquan's son, who was only four or five years old, was young and frail, and he was frightened by this and died of illness. Seeing that their family was in a pitiful situation, the creditors of the Zhang family were not forced too much, so they each scraped together money and handled the funeral for their ancestors and grandchildren. The houses and various things left by the Zhang family were divided among the creditors, but they could only pay off two or three points.

When this happened, it happened to be the day when Zhang Wanquan entrusted Zhu Er with a letter to his family, and when he talked about it seriously, it was his illness that delayed time. If he hadn't been sick and rushed home in time, even if he couldn't save his mother, at least his wife and children would have been able to save him.

When Zhang Wanquan heard such bad news, he only felt that it was a thunderbolt from the sky, and he immediately vomited blood, and his condition worsened. Fortunately, Zhu Er's family took care of him, so he got better.

Zhang Wanquan "mourned" his wife and children, his heart was also discouraged, and his breath was short, but it was Zhu Er's repeated persuasion that he cheered up a little. Since there are no relatives in his hometown and his physical condition is not good, he does not plan to go back to the sad place, but only stays in Chengde to slowly recuperate. Originally, he still had the foreign debts left by his mother, wife and children that had not been repaid, and those creditors were really kind to his family, and they also handled the family's funeral affairs for him.

However, here is the kindness of that Zhu Er again. Zhang Wanquan's friend, although he went back late and only heard the bad news, he was very "kind" to help Zhang Wanquan do everything he should do. He took the more than 2,000 taels of silver that Zhang Wanquan handed over to him and originally planned to send to the Zhang family to repay all the foreign debts of the Zhang family, and asked people to do a big deal for the Zhang family's mother, Zhang Wanquan's wife and children, and then took out the graves of the three people, cremated the three corpses, put the ashes into a jar, and sent them back to Zhang Wanquan. In this way, Zhang Wanquan has no debts, and he has the ashes of his relatives in hand, so naturally there is no need to go back to his hometown.

Zhang Wanquan is very grateful to his friends. It happened that Zhu Er planned to open a shop in Chengde, but because most of the money he earned before was used to buy a house and settle his family, the principal was insufficient, Zhang Wanquan saw that he still had more than 1,000 taels of silver in his hands, so he took it out and partnered with a friend to open a leather shop. In this way, if a friend watches the business in the store, he doesn't have to worry too much, and he just recuperates with peace of mind.

The name of this leather shop is called "Zhang Zhu Ji", and after it opened, business was booming, and the silver went into the pockets of Zhang Wanquan and Zhu Er like flowing water. The two have never had a conflict over the division of profits, no matter how much money they make, they are all divided equally.

After a year, Zhang Wanquan's health improved, and Zhu Er proposed that he had a sister who was twenty-eight years old and had not yet allowed anyone, so he admired him Zhang Wanquan and was willing to marry him as his wife. If this marriage is completed, the two friends are both partners and in-laws, so they will naturally be more intimate. It's just that Zhang Wanquan still thought about his "tragically dead" wife and children in his heart, and he had no intention of remarrying, so he politely refused. The girl of the Zhu family refused to give up, and was determined to wait for him to change his mind, and the matter was deadlocked.

Four years have passed since this stalemate. The girl of the Zhu family is already a twenty-year-old girl, and if she doesn't marry, she really won't be able to get married. Zhu Er tested Zhang Wanquan's meaning again, and learned that he really had no intention of remarrying, so he had to give up, and instead married his sister to a wealthy businessman in the capital to fill the house.

But after this incident, Zhu Er had a dislike for Zhang Wanquan, thinking that he had harmed his sister-in-law and delayed her life. She could have married someone to be the original match, but now she can only marry an old man who is over half a hundred years old to fill the house, and when she enters the door, she will face a stepson and stepdaughter of the same age as her, which is really miserable. Zhu Er always talked about his kindness to Zhang Wanquan back then, thinking that he was going to take revenge, although the two families were still partners, they already had the meaning of turning their faces.

Zhang Wanquan noticed it, and felt in his heart that he couldn't stand Zhu Er, but he was reluctant to marry a wife, and he couldn't force it. The sister of the Zhu family is pitiful, but you can't force yourself to marry a wife you don't want in order to pity her, right? If Zhu Er doesn't want her sister to be a ready-made stepmother, she doesn't have to tell her such a family business. In the end, it's just anger. Zhang Wanquan vaguely noticed that the business in the store was very good, and after Zhu Er became rich, his temperament changed greatly, and he was no longer the good friend who was anxious for justice and righteousness in the past. But he didn't say anything, and simply ended the cooperation with Zhu Er and gave him half of his shop at a low price.

Zhang Wanquan naturally suffered a lot of losses in this transaction, but he admitted that he was ashamed of Zhu Er, and he was grateful to Zhu Er for his kindness back then, and he had to admit it no matter how much he lost.

He had a total net worth of four or five thousand taels, and when his body was well raised, he returned to the ranks of merchants and did some scattered small trades. There are many opportunities in Chengde, he has been here for many years, and he has already become acquainted, and it may be difficult to get rich and rich, but he just wants to make a living, but there is no difficulty.

It's just that the Zhu family has a gap with him, and Zhu Er seems to suppress him indiscriminately, making it difficult for him to show his hands and feet, and gradually it is not going well. And because the sister-in-law of the Zhu family married a wealthy merchant in the capital, the rich merchant accounted for a huge share of the leather trade in Chengde, he heard some rumors about the unmarried wife of the house, and was jealous of Zhang Wanquan, and squeezed him openly and secretly. Zhang Wanquan had no way to survive in Chengde, so he had to sell his real estate and family business and leave gloomily.

He didn't want to go back to his hometown, but when he passed by, he saw that it was very prosperous and the leather market was also very developed, so he settled in the city, opened a leather shop, and started a business. He is still rich now, and he has made a lot of new friends, and some people have seen him alone, and they intend to be a matchmaker for him, saying that he has a wife's room, but he can't forget his wife and children, and he always refuses.

Today's matchmaker smiled and said that she wanted to be a matchmaker for him, although he replied with a smile on his face, but he didn't take it seriously in his heart. Just because that big customer is a famous matchmaker in the city, no matter who she meets, as long as she is single, from an eighty-year-old man and an old lady to an eight-year-old child, she has to say that she is a matchmaker, but in fact, she turns around and forgets. If it weren't for the serious finding of her to entrust her, she wouldn't have done much about it. Therefore, he and the patron were actually just talking a few words of entertainment.

After listening to Zhang Wanquan's narration, everyone in the Qin family knew what was going on. I think that Zhang Wanquan has not been in contact with his wife and children for many years, is it because Zhu Er is in the way? When he returned to Suide Prefecture, he did come to MZ County, just because Zhang's mother also remembered that Zhang Wanquan's "death" was told to his family by a businessman surnamed Zhu. But what kind of big deeds and debts repayment are nothing.

Thinking about it, Zhu Ermust have embezzled the property that Zhang Wanquan entrusted him to his family, faked the news of Zhang Wanquan's death in front of Zhang's mother and son, and lied to Zhang Wanquan, saying that his wife and children were dead, and since then the news between the two sides has been cut off. And the so-called ashes of relatives that Zhu Er handed over to Zhang Wanquan are naturally fake. The grave of the old lady of the Zhang family is still safe and sound. Zhang's mother takes her son to sweep the tomb every Qingming Festival, and if someone touches it, she can't fail to find it.

Zhang Wanquan thought that over the years, he had worshiped wandering ghosts and wild ghosts from nowhere, and his heart was full of emotion. He said to everyone in the Qin family: "Zhu Er had a good relationship with me that day, otherwise I wouldn't have believed him and handed over such a large sum of silver to him." If he has no money and is in dire need of money, he can confess to me. I'm not going to watch him suffer. Why did he lie to me like this, and cut off the relationship between my husband and wife? I asked myself if I had never done anything to him, and I couldn't understand how he treated me like this. ”

Uncle Hu was quick to speak, and said a possibility with a sneer: "I think he knows that you are rich and intends to marry your sister to you, so he naturally thinks that your wife and children are in the way." It's just that he didn't expect that you would be so affectionate to your daughter-in-law that you refused to marry again, so you dragged his sister-in-law into an old girl, right? If his sister-in-law marries you, she will also fill the house, and if she meets your daughter-in-law again, she will have to succumb to the position of concubine, is it a good thing? If he really feels sorry for his sister-in-law, why doesn't he find a young talent for her to be the original husband and wife? If he has to fill the house for the old man, he thinks that he is just greedy for other people's wealth. Such a snob, if you leave him early, it can be regarded as creation!"

Zhang Wanquan suddenly realized and sighed in his heart. (To be continued.) )
