On the third day of junior high school, the Xia family came to pay New Year's greetings to the old man of the Xia family and Mrs. Xia, but Mrs. Xia didn't give her half a good face, and the old man Xia continued to be a shut-up.

The person who came was Xia Chengye, the nephew of the old man of the Xia family and the eldest son of Xia Yong, the eldest brother of the old man of the Xia family.

After seeing the two of them, Mrs. Xia didn't say anything about staying for dinner, Xia Chengye smiled and exited the main room, said hello to a few cousins, and went home in the snow.

The old lady muttered in the house, coming to pay New Year's greetings on the third day of the new year, what year to worship, weasel to the chicken New Year's greeting - uneasy and kind! Bah!

Old man Xia was smoking, and after a while, he raised his head and glanced at Mrs. Xia, old woman, why don't you let the boss go?

Where to go? Mrs. Xia, have you forgotten how he drove us out of the ancestral house? Okay, the scar forgot the pain, and you softened after coming to see it twice? You don't want to think about it, if my eldest brother hadn't paid for us to build this mud house, we would still be sleeping with pigs in the straw shed!

Old Man Xia's face sank instantly, he opened his mouth, didn't say anything, lowered his head and smoked.

After breaking five, the boss Xia Chengping came to find Mr. Xia and said that he wanted to go back to the town. Second, after the New Year, the female relatives of the classmates will definitely have to socialize and pull the relationship, and he will rush back to do the entertainment as soon as possible.

Old Man Xia nodded again and again, yes, yes, you guys go by yourself, don't worry about your family, it's important to take the test for fame.

Xia Chengping responded, but stood there and didn't move, just looked at Old Man Xia, Old Man Xia was strange, was there anything else?

Dad, entertainment is for silver, and you haven't given it yet. Xia Chengping frowned fiercely, his face was very ugly.

Why do you have to give it to yourself every time, and don't you know that there are many places where you have to spend money when you go out? Is......

Old man Xia suddenly, old woman, give the boss silver...... How much?

At least twenty taels!

Old Man Xia listened to his words and took a breath of cold air, asking for so much!

Xia Chengping's face is already heavy and dripping, and my father is afraid that I won't be able to swallow the money!

Don't worry, I'll let your mother get it for you, and I'll take it...... Old Man Xia looked at his son's ugly face and didn't dare to ask more, so he called Old Mrs. Xia again.

What's it called? Don't let people stop for a while? Mrs. Xia stomped into the house, glanced at Mr. Xia, what did you tell me to do?

Take twenty taels for the old family......

What! The old lady's eyes widened, and she walked up to Old Man Xia and Xia Chengping in a few steps, Boss, how much do you want? How much?

Xia Chengping twisted his eyebrows and glanced at Old Man Xia, Old Man Xia frowned, knocked on the cigarette stick, and asked what, let you take it, the boss is useful!

Why can't I ask? That's the money I've worked so hard to save! You'll need twenty taels for one mouth! If you don't tell me a word, the door won't be ...... The old lady crossed her waist and scolded at Westinghouse, eating my family's and drinking my family's, and trying to pull my family's silver and take my coffin book! Do you want to be ashamed......

Father! Xia Chengping said angrily, I won't take the test for this show of talent and lifting people! Let a few children stop tossing, and go home to farm! Lest my mother think that our family wants to pull her coffin book and go out with such a reputation, what book does my son study? What kind of official ......

Boss, Boss...... Mother didn't mean you...... The old lady was a little overwhelmed by her son's temper, her eyes turned a few times and fell on Old Man Xia, Old Man Xia glared at her, and said to Xia Chengping, Okay, you don't know your mother's temper, she just said, don't go to your heart...... As he spoke, he frowned and glared at Mrs. Xia, and didn't go to get the silver......

The old lady belched, her little feet took two steps and stopped, looked back at Old Man Xia, and hesitated, is ten taels enough?

Twenty taels of silver, it almost cost her life!

Xia Chengping flicked his sleeves and said coldly, the family of the county master of Guangxian County will buy filial piety for two taels of silver, and people are still undecided; The county Cheng family also has one tael, the teacher's family wants one tael, and the classmates can't miss the gift of five hundred big money, and twenty taels is not necessarily enough! If my mother doesn't want me to take the test for this show, raise people, and become this official, let alone ten taels, ten big money can send me away!

Test, test, test! When, when, when! Mother is cheap, bald, son, don't be angry, mother will take it, this will take it, ah! When the old lady saw that her son was really angry, she didn't dare to speak more, so she went into the inner room, and after a long time, she took out a small maroon box from her arms, and took out a key from her arms, unlocked it, and took out two silver ingots, and then locked the box and put it back in its place, and found a piece of cloth to wrap the silver, and went outside.

didn't go out of the door, paused again, touched the silver in her arms, and was distressed to shed tears, this is the silver she saved up for a long time! Whining......

The old lady reluctantly took out the silver, Xia Chengping went to pick it up, she shrank back, touched the silver again with red eyes, and then didn't turn her head and stuffed the silver into her son's arms, and said a word, give.

Xia Chengping took the silver and weighed it, with a smile on his face, don't worry, I will definitely be able to pass the government exam this year, and if I pass the hospital exam, I will be a showman! Father and mother are waiting to enjoy happiness with their son.

I want to be an old lady! The old lady hurriedly raised her head and bargained.

Xia Chengping frowned, glanced at Old Man Xia, Old Man Xia was also smiling and squinting at him, he looked upright, very solemn and said, his son became an official, and his father and mother are naturally old ladies and old ladies!

The old lady's eyes lit up, and the smile on her face was ten points like that of Old Man Xia.

As soon as Xia Chengping returned to the West House, Old Man Xia glared at Mrs. Xia, you said you, why did your son want silver? It's not that you want to be admitted to the official exam early, you have to say that it doesn't listen to it......

The old lady smiled and waved her hand, I just felt sorry for the silver, and I didn't say no! said, approached the old man Xia, helped him change the tobacco, lit it and handed it to him, mysterious and secret, old man, who do you say will be the first official between the eldest son and Erlang?

Old Man Xia took a puff of his cigarette, and smiled kindly in the smoke, whoever becomes an official first will have our old lady and old lady!

The old lady was stunned, thought about it, it was really this reason, he smiled and crossed her legs, and chatted with the old man about the Li family.

In the West House, Xia Chengping carried the silver into the house and threw it on the kang.

Got it? Zhao pounced happily, untied the cloth bag and took a look, the smile on his face became thicker, poured a glass of water for Xia Chengping and handed it over, why was his mother willing to give it? I heard her scold me before, and I thought I wouldn't give it to ......

Xia Chengping frowned and looked over, she hurriedly closed her mouth, wanting to change her gentle smile, but her facial expression changed too quickly, and she smoked!

showed a smile that wanted to cry or not to laugh, but also twisted the handkerchief and put it to his lips, the master has worked hard, let's leave today?

The corners of Xia Chengping's mouth twitched, don't start, let's leave today, hurry up and pack up your things, and leave after lunch.

Zhao nodded, yes.

Shiro and Shi Niang looked at each other, wanting to laugh but not daring to laugh, and the two turned around at the same time, their shoulders shaking violently.

Seeing the strange appearance of his younger brothers and sisters, Da Lang shook his head and continued to read the book, Mencius said: 'If you believe in books, it is better to have no books'......

Shiro and Shi Niang's trembling shoulders were stunned, and they trembled violently again.

Zhao and Xia Chengping said another thing in the kangtou, the county prince and the Cao family in Fucheng are in-laws, and the second lady of the county princess's family is married to the eldest son of Cao Zhifu, if we want to take the road of Cao Zhifu, we have to catch the county master first......

Not easy...... Xia Chengping shook his head, the county master didn't even see the teacher, I ......

Zhao smiled, I also heard one thing, I am sure to let the county master serve the old man as a guest! As he spoke, he leaned into Xia Chengping's ear and told Xia Chengping what he had heard by chance.

Xia Chengping was happy first and then frowned, and at the end, he glared at Zhao, you and I are my mother! Such a conscience thing......

Before he finished speaking, he felt that he was not good for his mother in front of his wife, so he stopped his mouth and said coldly, this matter should not be mentioned again......

The Zhao family was a little unwilling, Xia Chengping glanced over again, that is your own flesh and blood in October, and you are also ruthless!

Hearing this, Zhao was stunned, noticed the source of Xia Chengping's anger, sneered, and then leaned into Xia Chengping's ear and muttered a few words, Xia Chengping showed a thoughtful expression.

Half ringing, looking at Zhao, said slowly, this ...... It's doable.

Zhao smiled with satisfaction.
