Old Man Xia was almost not angry by Xia Chengle's yin and yang weird words! Panting with a shelf!

He's typical, he's cheap and good!

Isn't it just a few days later to save him back? How dare he talk to himself like that!

Bastard!

Xia Chengle's red gaze roamed over Old Man Xia and Old Lady Qiao without any scruples, "Dad, Mother, I'm coming back alive, aren't you happy?" ”

Mrs. Qiao leaned closer to Old Man Xia with a little weakness, and squeezed out a smile, "High, happy......"

Old Man Xia glared at Old Lady Qiao with sideways eyes, and Old Lady Qiao immediately stopped talking.

Old Man Xia lit a tobacco leaf and waved his hand at Yang Deshi.

Yang Deshi got up, "Yo, the fourth child is back, and my father and mother were still talking about you just now, afraid that you will suffer in prison......"

Xu felt that what he said was too false, so he stopped.

Xia Chengle glanced at Yang Deshi with a smile, "Thank you eldest brother-in-law for thinking about me so much, I am grateful to you from the bottom of my heart." ”

How awkward it sounded Yang Deshi frowned and wanted to talk back, but he didn't know what he thought, so he stopped abruptly and sat aside.

There was a dead silence in the room.

After a long while, after the old man Xia clicked a large cloud of smoke, he stopped, looked up at Xia Chengle, and patted the edge of the kang on the side, "Fourth, come, sit, let's chat." ”

waved his hand at Mrs. Qiao and the others, "What are you all doing in the house?" What should you do when you go out! ”

Xia Hongxia exchanged a look with Yang Deshi, got up and walked out of the house with her two sons.

Mrs. Qiao felt that there was nothing wrong with her, so she sat and didn't move, but she didn't expect Old Man Xia to glare at her impatiently, "What are you grinding and chirping?" Don't go out yet, busy with your going! ”

"What am I going out for?" She's usually fine, but she's the one who doesn't go out without going out, so what is she letting out at this time?

Old Man Xia frowned coldly, "What do you want to do, go to the field and have a look, seeing that the sky is about to get warm, we have to prepare early this year, and we are still waiting for that unfilial bastard to plant crops for us!" ”

Unfilial bastard?

Xia Chengle pouted, there is such a pair of fathers and mothers, and the third brother is forced to be unfilial, he ...... Unfilial piety is also forced!

Seeing that Old Man Xia was really angry, Old Lady Qiao didn't dare to say more, so she hurriedly put on her shoes and walked out, "Old man, don't be angry, I'll go out, I'll go out......"

There were only two people left in the house, Xia Chengle and Old Man Xia.

Old Man Xia took a few puffs of cigarette and let out a long sigh, looking very helpless, "Fourth, don't blame Dad, Dad is also for this family......"

"It's no wonder, it's a good thing for our family to be honored by the eldest brother's talent, and my father takes care of the eldest brother first, regardless of my life or death...... And rightfully so! "Speaking of recklessness for life and death...... It should be a few words, Xia Chengle's whole body was full of undisguised contempt.

Old man Xia's action of smacking the cigarette stopped instantly, and the green tendons on his hands were particularly obvious, and after a while, Old Man Xia spoke up, his tone was very sad, "Fourth, Dad knows, Dad hurt your heart this time, but you also have to be considerate and considerate of Dad's good intentions, the one surnamed Fan and Fanghua Pavilion insisted that you stole the recipe and took you to prison, and the iron-hearted one wanted to punish you...... Because your eldest brother didn't know it, he was involved, so he ......"

Xia Chengle listened with his chest around his chest, nodding from time to time, with a smile on his face, but it didn't reach the bottom of his eyes.

Old Man Xia's mouth was dry, and at the end, he let out a long sigh, "Fourth, you are a smart person, you should know, what does your eldest brother's fame mean to our family?" ”

looked at Xia Chengle with a strange light in his eyes, and the excitement and excitement in his voice couldn't be concealed, "It means that when others see you in the future, they have to call the fourth master, and when they see me, they have to call the old lady!" It means that our Lao Xia family will not be a cropper from now on, and we are also a scholar of Shinong Industry and Commerce, and we have jumped into the Dragon Gate! ……”

Old Man Xia's eyes are bright and longing, no, to be exact, his eyes already have my son is the Xiucai master, and I am the arrogance of the old lady.

Xia Chengle laughed when he saw it.

"Dad, what are you daydreaming about? The boss can't pass the exam, and the old man still said, even if he is admitted, it is also a few of our brothers who have offered it, and there are no brothers who farm in the back to support the family and earn money for him to spend in the town. Bah! He poured a scoop of cold water on him.

Old Man Xia's face changed, "Your eldest brother spent me and your mother's ......"

"Forget it, Dad. How many years have you and your mother not gone out to earn money? My mother sits on the kang all day long and scolds her daughter-in-law, you are hanging around with a stick all day long, and all the money in the family is not tossed by a few of our brothers! Of course, I don't deny that I am the least, but my daughter-in-law said that the matchmaker, the silver she gets, when it is good, she earns more than ten taels a month, but it is all looted by her mother! Dad dares to say that all this silver belongs to you and your mother......" The eyebrows and eyes are very disdainful, and there is no scruple in the use of words, in the past, as soon as the old man's face changed in the summer, he smiled and stopped talking, and today it has all changed.

Old Man Xia naturally realized it, his face was pale and pale, his heart was turbulent, and he was so angry that he couldn't wait to take the cigarette stick in his hand and knock the bastard thing in front of him a few times!

The words that the eldest son said to himself sounded in his mind, "My son finally walked away, and at this time, there was no fault in the family, and he lost all the games with one wrong move, and he was really snatched away by someone, and it was too late to cry when the time came......"

Old Man Xia suppressed the anger in his heart again, lowered his head and took a puff of cigarette, as if he was helpless, he seemed to bow down and be small, "Fourth, you have always been smart, why don't you want to think about it, how much silver can your eldest brother bring you if he has fame?" You can only see so much silver in your eyes, but you know that after your eldest brother became famous, how many people stammered to give silver to our family......"

Of course, Xia Chengle knew that he had already discussed with the Huang family how to make money, where to use Old Man Xia to teach? What are these words said for? Saying these words is nothing more than venting the unhappiness in my heart.

Looking at the old man's appearance of wanting to get angry but not daring to get angry, there was a dark feeling in my heart for no reason!

But then, he thought of a better way.

"Dad, my son is wronged." Xia Chengle directly interrupted Old Man Xia's words and said.

Old Man Xia was stunned, looked at Xia Chengle, and was a little unclear about Xia Chengle's sudden change of attitude.

Xia Chengle simply named, "Dad said so much, what does it mean that the son also knows it, but the son suffered this crime in the prison, and his little life was almost put in, and he was so aggrieved in his heart, I opened the shop and my eldest brother, but I was the only one who suffered, I was wronged, and my eldest brother had to compensate me!" Otherwise, I will always have a pimple in my heart. ”

Belch.

Old Man Xia was still a little stunned, but seeing that he finally spit out, he didn't have time to think about it, so he responded for Xia Chengping, for fear that he would be angry again, "It should be, this matter is owed to you by your eldest brother, what do you want, I will answer for your eldest brother." ”

Xia Chengle smiled, "Dad, I knew that you were the most fair!" Baiwei Zhai can't be opened, if the eldest brother becomes a talented master, I want to be a big housekeeper for the eldest brother, just like other high-ranking families, to help the eldest brother usher in! ”

This......

"Your eldest brother is just a talented master, can you use a housekeeper?"

"Why can't you use it!" Xia Chengle approached Mr. Xia, took the lamp and helped Mr. Xia re-light the extinguished tobacco, because the previous burn was a little exhausted, and most of the ashes burned at this time, Mr. Xia took a puff, choked on his throat, and coughed for a while.

Xia Chengle flickered his eyes while helping Old Man Xia to get his breath, "Dad think about it, the eldest brother will be a talented master by then, is it possible that a student will come to the door to ask for a meeting, and the eldest brother will come out to entertain with a talented master himself?" Besides, the eldest brother is a talented master, and there are more guests to eat and socialize, and there must always be close people to help screen which families should go to socialize and which families don't need to socialize! Many of the housekeepers in our town are so open-minded, it's a must! ”

Although Old Man Xia hung his head slightly and was panting, Xia Chengle's expression was clearly seen by him, where he didn't know what the fourth child must have moved, but at this time he really couldn't find an excuse to refuse, so he had to say vaguely, "You have to discuss this matter with your eldest brother, maybe he has a good candidate." ”

"No matter how good a candidate is, can he be better than his own brother?" Xia Chengle didn't care, and patted his chest, "As long as my father agrees, I'll say it myself on the eldest brother's side." ”

Old Man Xia thought for a while and nodded, "Cheng, then you discuss it with your eldest brother, he promised me that I had nothing to say." ”

Xia Chengle smiled, his eyes seemed to be drilled into the silver of white flowers, and they were amazingly bright.

"Thank you, Dad! Daddy couldn't be more fair! ”

The father and son looked at each other and smiled, as if the unhappiness between the father and son had never happened.

Outside the house, there was a sudden insult from Mrs. Qiao, "Huang, you little slut, dare to steal my white noodles, you shameless ......"

"Old pious woman, I eat partially! If you don't leave our lunch, we are not allowed to cook it ourselves, let's go out and find Li Zheng and the village chief to nag and nag, see who is more shameless......" tone is afraid that the world will not be chaotic.

"You spit it out for me, spit it out......" Old Lady Qiao's voice was full of anger, as if she jumped to beat Huang.

Huang Shi did not give in to fight with him, and after a while, there was an angry roar like Old Lady Qiao killing a pig, "Huang, you dare to pull my hair, see if I don't cut you to death......"

"Ahh Murder, the old woman is going to kill her daughter-in-law......" Huang shouted as he ran out of the stove house and ran into the main room, "His father, the old woman wants to kill me......"

Xia Chengle stretched out his hand to protect the Huang family, looked at the old lady Qiao who ran over with her little feet, and said with a smile, "Mother, what are you doing here?" Your son was saved by your daughter-in-law, are you not satisfied and want to kill her? In this case, it is better to cut off the son first! Well, cut it here, and if you go down with a knife, blood will come out, but in three moments, you will be able to collect your son's body......"

Old Mrs. Qiao was angry, and was excited by Xia Chengle's words, and really raised a knife to cut, but Old Man Xia shouted with a cold face, "Don't stop me yet!" ”

Old Mrs. Qiao was excited, and when she saw the knife in her hand and her son with his neck stretched, she woke up.

His hands trembled a little.

Xia Chengle sneered, "My son is not afraid, what is my mother afraid of?" Anyway, my son's life was given by his father, and when I want to take it away, it will be gone, how happy! ”

"I, I'm ......" When did Mrs. Qiao see her son talk like this, she stood stunned in place, not knowing how to explain.

Old Man Xia glanced at Xia Chengle and looked uneasy, "Your mother just said a few jokes, you also take it seriously, you are hungry all the way, go eat and rest." ”

Xia Chengle laughed nonchalantly and pulled Huang away.

Old Mrs. Qiao was paralyzed on the kang, her face pale, "Old, old man, the fourth one...... It's like a different person, it scares me to death! ”

Old Man Xia glanced at Mrs. Qiao, changed the tobacco in the cigarette stick, took a few sips, and then said slowly, "The fourth child is angry, you don't say a word, don't make anything and delay the boss's reputation." ”

Old Mrs. Qiao sighed, she wanted to ask anything but didn't dare to ask.

Old Man Xia is a little annoyed by Mrs. Qiao, she looks very strong on weekdays, but to put it bluntly, she is a paper tiger, and she is useless.

On the boss's side, he has to take the time to remind him that the fourth child is used to holding grudges, so don't make any trouble for the boss.

……

Huang took the rice back to the house, handed Xia Chengle a bowl, and took Liuniang to the stove house to serve her and Wulang.

Wulang ran over with a smile and went back to the house with a bowl of rice with Liuniang, and sat on the kang to eat with Xia Chengle and Huang.

Huang and Xia Chengle talked, "The old man is not angry? ”

"He doesn't dare to fall out with us at this time, the boss can't stand the fold

That doesn't stand up to the toss. Xia Chengle pursed his lips.

It's no wonder if he wasn't angry, he looked at the old man and was about to go crazy.

Hehe!

He was afraid that he would not be angry!

Anyway, it's impossible to get him to respect him like before.

Huang thought for a while, nodded and smiled, "If he dares to make trouble with us, let's publicize the fact that the boss spends money to buy fame, and see how the big house can be a talented master!" ”

Xia Chengle also smiled.

Discussed with the Huang family again, "You go to the town twice in the past few days to see if anyone wants to rent a shop, go and sell out the Baiwei Zhai, our family has lost so much silver, we have to collect some back." ”

Huang nodded, frowned and said, "If the big house wants to transfer the money of the shop, what should I do?" ”

"He thinks beautifully!" Xia Chengle lowered his face coldly, "The silver for renting the shop was stolen from the Xia family's small shop by us at the risk, and we wanted to divide the silver before the big house came out, and there was no door!" ”

Huang snorted, and a smile bloomed on his face, "We have rented a contract for two and a half years, and we will sell ten taels of rent a month, and two years will be ......" lowered his head and counted with his fingers, "Three hundred taels!" Dad, we have silver! ”

Xia Chengle nodded, his cold face gradually eased, "You went to exchange this silver for a silver ticket, let's hide it, and no one will give it!" ”

Huang remembered what Xia Chengle had said to him in prison, smiled, and nodded heavily.

Liuniang hung her head, and when she heard that she had stolen the silver from the Xia family's shop, the chopsticks in her hand trembled, and then, her head hung deeper, almost buried in the bowl.

Gorou picked up the white noodles in the bowl, snorted and ate a big bowl, wiped his mouth and stretched out the bowl, "Mother, I want it!" ”

"No more!" Huang slapped him angrily, "Eat and eat, you know how to eat ......"

Gorou burst into tears.

"Fifth brother, I still have it here, I'm full, I'll give it to you." Liuniang hurriedly raised her head and handed half a bowl of noodles to Wulang, who snorted and took Liuniang's bowl and ate it.

Huang glared at Liuniang and threw the bowl to her, "Go brush it." ”

"Whoa." Liu Niang answered, took the bowl and went to the stove house.

Huang pouted, "What do you do with a girl, it's useless!" ”

……

Xia Chengxiang begged to go to Xia Chengping's door, and did enough 'if you don't agree to me, I will make a fuss', Xia Chengping was angry and angry, but it was not easy to attack.

only persuaded bitterly, "You have the craft now, you can make money, in a few days, I will become a Xiucai master, you just want to marry a young lady and a big brother of the Xiucai family can also help you marry home, you have to marry such a ......"

Xia Chengxiang stood up and was about to leave, "If the eldest brother doesn't agree, I'll go home to find my father, it's a big deal to invite the village chief and Lizheng, anyway, I am sure, definitely, I must marry the sister of the Li family." ”

Xia Cheng was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood.

"You elm pimple, aren't you just a blacksmith's daughter, and you want to take away a son of our Xia family, you ...... What do you ask your big brother to say? ”

Xia Chengping didn't dare to come hard, seeing that Xia Chengxiang didn't change his mind no matter what he said, he had to sigh and said, "Okay, big brother knows about this, I'll go home in a few days and tell my father, if my father doesn't agree, I ......."

"If it really doesn't work, then I'll split up ......"

As soon as Xia Chengxiang spoke, Xia Chengping laughed directly, "You just have to marry, right?" ”

Xia Chengxiang nodded heavily.

Xia Chengping could only promise to persuade Old Man Xia to nod, and Xia Chengxiang returned satisfied.

Sending people away, Xia Chengping dropped the book, and said with a blue face, "One or two, I don't know how to save snacks!" ”

Zhao nodded, "Seeing that the exam is coming, I won't let the old man calm down and read the book......"

Xia Chengping snorted and instructed Zhao, "Tong Xiucai mentioned that his lady likes what kind of network you play, you can go to Tong's house tomorrow to see what kind of network Tong Xiucai's wife likes, and give a few." ”

"That's a good feeling." Zhao responded with a smile, and talked to Xia Chengping about the two daughters of Tong Xiucai's family, "One is gentle and virtuous, the other is knowledgeable and courteous, I think it's good to say it to our family." He said mysteriously, "I heard Tong Xiucai's lady say that she prepared a dowry of 1,000 taels for each of her two daughters!" ”

It's a greedy look.

Xia Chengping glanced at Zhao lightly, "Just a little bit of silver entered your eyes?" Do you know how many squires and tyrants' fields are hung under Tong Xiucai's name, and only a few hundred taels of gifts and New Year's gifts are given to Tong Xiucai every year, not to mention the annual harvest of a large grange under Tong Xiucai's own name, and help people write papers, and be a husband in a big family. In the end, he couldn't hold back the desire in his heart, his eyes were shining, and he lowered his voice and said, "The annual income is one thousand taels!" ”

"So much!" Zhao widened his eyes and was very surprised.

Immediately, his face was full of excitement, and he grabbed Xia Chengping's sleeve, "His father, you said that when you become a talented master, will our family have so much silver every year?" ”

Xia Chengping's eyebrows and eyes showed smugness, and the corners of his lips smiled, giving Zhao a 'that's still to say' look.

Zhao couldn't help laughing, and immediately covered his mouth, "Dad, we will soon be rich and status......

Xia Chengping also smiled, laughed for a while, frowned and said to Zhao, "Survive these few months......"

I thought in my heart that the fifth child really had to take the time to go back and talk to the old man about this matter, so as not to be really troubled by him and affect himself!

The matter of stealing the recipe has already made Lord Liang a lot of dissatisfaction with him, and if there is a discord between the brothers and the separation of the family, he will not have to end up, maybe he will be directly made famous by Lord Liang.

Xia Chengping sighed, looked at the windy sky outside, and looked forward to August coming soon.

A few days later, Xia Chengping took the time to go back to Jiuli Pavilion.

Xia Chengle and the Huang family have been busy these days, Xia Chengping went home and took a photo with the two, and he didn't care.

Old Man Xia listened to Xia Chengping's intention, let's do it

came to me, he smoked for a long time, "Does he have to marry a girl from the Li family?" ”

"You have to marry."

"If I don't say yes......"

"The fifth will ......make trouble" Xia Chengping didn't say that Xia Chengxiang wanted to split up, but said that the old man was even more angry, in case he twisted his temper...... He didn't dare take that risk.

Old Man Xia sighed, picked up the cigarette again, and after a long time, he knocked on the small table on the kang with a cigarette stick, and said with some annoyance and anger, "Okay, if he wants to, he will be willing, I don't care about this matter." ”

Old Mrs. Qiao nodded again and again, "I don't care either!" It cost eighty taels to save you, and the remaining more than one hundred taels were snatched away by the fourth loser, and your father and I have no money, he wants to marry him and let him marry himself, we have no silver! ”

Old Man Xia meant to let Xia Chengxiang handle his own affairs.

In her eyes, Mrs. Qiao only saw that her daughter-in-law wanted a dowry of silver.

Xia Chengping was too lazy to deal with Mrs. Qiao, she couldn't come up with the dowry, anyway, he got the old man to agree to the family affairs, and the fifth child didn't make trouble, so it was done.

The two chatted a few more words, Xia Chengping was pressed for time, and he couldn't delay his study, so he went back to the town after lunch.

Find someone to hand over the news to the Li family's blacksmith shop.

Xia Chengxiang's happy face turned red, his eyes were also red, and the seven-foot man knelt in front of the old man of the Li family and kowtowed three times, "Master, I will definitely be good to my sister!" ”

The old man of the Li family was also moved, the child grew up by himself, and he didn't have to pick his character, heart, or appearance, and promised to leave an incense for his Li family, where could he not be moved.

With red eyes, he helped Xia Chengxiang up from the ground and patted him on the shoulder, "Good boy, the master knows that he didn't mistake you!" In the future, you two will live a good life, and the master will have no regrets in his heart......"

Xia Chengxiang went to cut the Li family girl honestly and shyly.

The girl of the Li family also blushed on the side, glanced at Xia Chengxiang, and turned into the back room.

Xia Chengxiang was stupid for a long time, until the old man of the Li family called him, "...... You go back and discuss with your father and mother, and invite a matchmaker to kiss ......."

The update is coming, so I've been waiting for a long time, Momoda~
