When he left the Ling family, Zhao Changqing borrowed a volume of "Historical Records" from Mrs. Ling, and the reason why it is said to be one volume is because large volumes such as "Historical Records" are all set of theories. Mrs. Ling is an old cardinal, but Zhao Changqing plans to make a long-term living, she doesn't plan to buy books at home at all, and she will rely on borrowing them in the future, so she can save a lot of money. So, Zhao Changqing didn't borrow much, for fear that the old man would feel distressed if he borrowed too much, and it would be difficult to speak next time. Borrow only one book, and then borrow it after copying.

Of course, the lunch was also very pleasant, she said that it was not necessary to be rich, and Mrs. Ling Da was not good at being hasty, even though there were only four people, she also cleaned up a little. Zhao Changqing's mouth is sweet, Mrs. Ling now regards her as a little bosom friend, Mrs. Ling already loves her granddaughter, and Mrs. Ling will not intentionally spoil her fun, so a meal is very harmonious.

When Zhao Changqing was about to leave, Mrs. Ling smiled and left her, "It's still early, it's okay to have more fun." ”

Mrs. Ling also said, "Yes, your uncle and your sisters will come back after a while, and you haven't seen them yet." Stay a little longer, and when they come back, you can talk for a while. ”

Zhao Changqing smiled, "I also wanted to have more fun, but I still have to go to the second uncle's house, and I have to tell the third sister about the things she needs to prepare for studying." Otherwise, I only came to tell my eldest aunt, and if I didn't tell the third sister, it would not be good to miss the third sister's study. ”

Since Zhao Changqing said this, Old Lady Ling smiled, "Then go, you just come to see your grandfather and grandmother when you are free, Mo Chengtian is bored to study at home, and it is okay to come out to play for a moment and a half." And he told her to be careful on the road.

Zhao Changqing responded.

Mrs. Ling took Fourth Sister Ling to study together, just because she didn't want Third Sister Ling to take advantage of the Zhao family in vain, but now seeing that Zhao Changqing did not favor one over the other, seeing that Zhao Changqing left, Mrs. Ling still said to her mother-in-law, "Changqing, this child, at a glance, you can know that the Tao is promising, and he is so capable at a young age." ”

Old Lady Ling was partial to her granddaughter and smiled, "Yes." ”

Zhao Changqing sat in a rickety carriage, and when he arrived at Ling's second uncle's house, he didn't expect Ling Teng to be at home.

Second Mrs. Ling smiled, "Yo, which gust of wind blew our young girl, but it's a rare guest!" ”

Just listening to these inconsequential words, Zhao Changqing wondered how he could give birth to a son like Ling Teng with the IQ of Second Mrs. Ling. Zhao Changqing said with a smile, "It's a northeast wind blowing today, I'm afraid it's a northeast wind." ”

Ling Teng happened to come out of the house, and immediately laughed when he heard this, "Sister Qing can also say witty things now." ”

Zhao Changqing smiled with a blessing, "Hello to the second uncle, Cousin Teng is also at home, didn't he go to school?" ”

Ling Teng didn't wear a thick jacket on his body, and smiled, "I ate in school at noon, and I only had one hour of homework in the afternoon, and I just came back." It's cold outside, so let's sit in my sister's house, it's warm inside. As he spoke, he carefully picked up the cotton curtain and asked Zhao Changqing to go first.

Zhao Changqing was very flattered, said "There is labor", and entered the house with a smile.

Third Sister Ling also greeted her and said with a smile, "It's not that my sister can't wait, I'll go to my sister tomorrow to study." He said Ling Teng again, "You wear a thick coat and go out again, don't be freezing." Hearing Sister Qing's voice, I can't stand on your feet. ”

Second Mrs. Ling brought warm water, and her face was also smiling, "I was telling your third sister that the yard I bought now is far away from your house." I heard that you have your own house, so I simply asked your third sister to pack a few clothes and live there. First, your sisters are close, and secondly, it saves her from running back and forth in the cold wind. As he spoke, he opened the cup and poured a cup of warm water and handed it to Zhao Changqing, and Mrs. Ling asked with a smile, "Miss Qing, you said it well." ”

Ho!

This one is even more calculating!

Ling Teng frowned and said, "Mother, this is not very suitable, how can you ask my sister to live at my aunt's house permanently?" ”

Second Mrs. Ling smiled, "You have less mouth and more mouth!" Your aunt hasn't said it's inappropriate, so you'll say it! ”

Zhao Changqing smiled slightly, "What my aunt said is right, there is nothing inappropriate." Aunt and aunt, there is an aunt like a mother, and the mother originally regarded the third sister as her daughter, and she liked the third sister's cleverness the most. Today, my mother called me here just to ask me to come and tell my second aunt about the third sister's study together. ”

Zhao Changqing repeated what the Ling family said, and handed the list of things to be prepared to Mrs. Ling's second wife, Zhao Changqing smiled, "I have thought about the third sister thoroughly, and the second aunt just prepares it for the third sister according to this list." ”

Second Mrs. Ling's willow eyebrows raised slightly, and she said unhappily, "So, your third sister still has to pay money when she comes to your house to study?" ”

Zhao Changqing said innocently, "It's not just the third sister who gives money, I have to give my husband silver when I study at home." Moreover, my family also packs Mr. food and accommodation and clothes for four seasons, and the second aunt calculates, and now Mr. only accepts one or two taels of silver per month from the third sister, is it extraordinarily generous? ”

Second Mrs. Ling still pulled her face and said, "Your mother didn't respond to me like this that day!" ”

Zhao Changqing seemed to smile and asked, "How can my mother respond to my second uncle?" ”

"Your mother said, just call your third sister over."

Zhao Changqing smiled, "Then according to the meaning of the second aunt, didn't you ask my family to give the third sister the money to study?" ”

Such shameless words, Rao is not easy for Second Mrs. Ling to say directly. Second Mrs. Ling took a slow breath and smiled again, "That's not the case, now that your second uncle has just split up, the pots and pans have been repurchased, and he also borrowed five taels of silver from your eldest uncle that day." There is really no extra money at home, otherwise, call your third sister first, my aunt, and put some bunches on my niece first, and when there is income in the shop, I will send it to your mother immediately, it is not the same. ”

Zhao Changqing smiled, "The second aunt is like this, but I can't explain to the eldest aunt." ”

Second Mrs. Ling immediately asked whimsically, "Yes, what did your eldest aunt say?" ”

Zhao Changqing said, "The eldest aunt said that now I don't have enough money, and when the eldest uncle pays the salary, I will call the fourth sister over." ”

Second Mrs. Ling smiled and coaxed Zhao Changqing, "Aren't they all the same?" Okay, go back and tell your mother, tell your mother to put it on me first, and I won't pay it back. ”

Zhao Changqing didn't stiffen up with this shrew, and directly caused trouble, and said with a smile, "I don't understand this reason, Cousin Teng is a scholar and has always been reasonable, so it's better to ask Cousin Teng." ”

Obviously, Ling Teng has grown a lot since the separation, his face was not half moved, and he said directly, "Sister Qing, tonight, you come out of a girl's house, it's not good to stay too late for you, you go back first, don't let your aunt worry." When I rest, I'll go and say hello to your old lady, aunt, and uncle. After speaking, he didn't allow Second Mrs. Ling to speak, got up and took Zhao Changqing's hand and sent her to the gate, and watched her get into the car, Ling Teng waved his hand and said, "Sister, don't worry, I won't embarrass my aunt and sister." ”

Zhao Changqing nodded, he was not polite to Ling Teng, nor did he say anything hypocritical, and smiled, "It's cold outside, my cousin is not wearing a thick jacket, hurry back." ”

Ling Teng watched Zhao Changqing's car go away, and then turned around and went home.

Second Mrs. Ling had already chased after her with a big jacket, clasped her head on her son's head, and nagged, "It's almost the Mid-Autumn Festival, it's as cold as a day, I think you're dying!" The single clothes will come out, in case it freezes, how about it! ”

Ling Teng sneezed in response to the situation, and Second Mrs. Ling directly hugged him, sandwiched him in the armpit, walked back to the house quickly, and ordered Third Sister Ling in a loud voice, "Hurry up and go to the kitchen and cook a bowl of brown sugar ginger soup for your brother, I see that he has a cold!" ”

Third Sister Ling muttered, "Always call me, mother, when can you buy a maid ring and come back!" ”

Second Mrs. Ling scolded, "It's useless to get down to business, just these nonsense will have you!" Hurry up! ”

Ling Sanjie reluctantly ran to the kitchen to boil brown sugar ginger shredded water, Ling Teng wrapped his big jacket and sighed, "Mother, don't be busy, I have something to tell you." ”

Second Mrs. Ling really felt sorry for this son, and she didn't like the sourness on her son the most, so she handed her son a cup of warm water, and asked impatiently, "What are you going to say to me!" If your sister goes to your aunt's house to study, don't tell me! I've already made up my mind! You don't want to think about how partial your aunt is, your uncle donated money for the errand, and your aunt took out twenty-five taels! Second Mrs. Ling gestured with her two hands, her eyes widened, her face was angry, and she said, "It's all her brother, when has she ever been so generous to our family!" There is no such eccentric sister-in-law again! What's wrong with asking your sister to go to her house to study! It's all Mr. Lectures, Changqing listens alone, and listens with more ears! Isn't it possible for your sister to take money to listen to it? I don't know if this money is in my husband's pocket or your aunt's pocket! ”

Ling Teng patiently listened to his mother's complaints, and listened patiently to the good and unreasonable, until his mother had nothing to complain about, Ling Teng said in a slow tone, "Mother said that my aunt has not been generous to our family, and my mother knows that if you wait for idlers to go to school, how many bundles of rest do you need a month?" ”

"A Mengtong like me, going to the Mengxue of Xiucai's family, the cheapest one or two dollars a month will cost one or two or five dollars of silver. If it is a scholar, it must at least go up in twos and twos. Ling Teng said, "The husband that the Zhu family teaches me now is to lift people, and our family doesn't need to pay a tael of silver, and there is a free meal in the noon school." Mother has always been shrewd, just calculate how much silver our family saves every year. ”

Second Mrs. Ling raised her eyebrows, "This was all arranged for you by your grandfather." ”

"Mother Mo said such things, how did my grandfather have anything to do with the Zhu family. It was my uncle who walked around for me, and the old lady of the Zhao family spoke for me in front of the ancestor of the Zhu family. Ling Teng drank saliva and said calmly, "When I first arrived at the school, I was not surnamed Zhu, so it was inevitable that I would be looked down upon by the Zhu family in the school." I was afraid that my mother would find out and be sad, so I never told my mother. It was still last year, the ancestor of the Zhu family had a big birthday, and my sister took me to pay a birthday to the ancestor of the Zhu family, and I became acquainted with her six-room grandson, and said a few words, and I got better in school. My mother asked herself, how does my aunt treat our family? ”

Mrs. Ling didn't care about how the Ling family was, so she just asked her son, "Could it be that there are still people in the school who bully my son!" He slapped the corner of the table with his palm and said hatefully, "Which bad little cub is it!" Just tell me, I'll go with you tomorrow, and don't beat out his egg yolk!" ”

Ling Teng said lightly, "Which new elementary school student isn't like this?" Fortunately, now I am familiar with my classmates, and my husband values me very much, so my mother doesn't have to worry. ”

Mrs. Ling Er told her son, "Don't be bullied, just tell your mother if you have something!" ”

Ling Teng said with a hint of arrogance, "I'm a man, where do I want my mother to worry about me." If I can only be bullied by others, then I am incompetent and deserve to be bullied. ”

Second Mrs. Ling laughed when she heard this, "Which man are you!" hugged his son in his arms, and there was an indescribable love in his heart, "You are young now, some boys are very bad, look for you when you are young, we must not suffer, I know no!" ”

Ling Teng sighed lightly in his heart, nodded in response, and asked, "What I told my mother, my mother thought about it, is this the truth?" ”

Second Mrs. Ling sighed, "You are good at everything, it's just the sour temper of this body, and your grandfather is really carved out of the same mold!" Poked her son in the corner of the forehead, and Mrs. Ling said, "Could it be that your wife is stupid!" You know what a milk baby understands, but your wife doesn't understand! ”

"Now that your aunt's house has such convenience, what's wrong with let's go get some! I still don't want your sister to know a few words, read a few sentences, and say it decently in the future! Second Mrs. Ling said, "You are obsessed with that girl!" At a young age, I don't know where those hearts and eyes were born! The tongue in my mouth is three against others, and I can't beat me to death! ”

Ling Teng smiled, "Mother understands everything. My sister has the same heart and mouth, you only feel useful, and if your sister doesn't follow her mother's words, she will stand up to you. ”

Second Mrs. Ling raised the corners of her eyes, brought out a bit of power, and said, "Your sister just has a mouth and no heart, and her mouth can speak, but in fact, she has no heart and no lungs, and she can't use her words to the point, and she can't use the idea in her mind." This young girl is not ordinary, I also gave her a picture of obedience at first, you just think about how much your sister suffered from her! If it weren't for her, our family wouldn't be able to split up! ”

Ling Teng said, "Since my mother knows that she is powerful, why bother to provoke her." And my sister too, my mother should not be biased towards her, just think carefully in her heart, which time she didn't ignore her. ”

"It's not that I'm biased towards my sister, my mother is more reasonable than me, in this world, there are more people who are more powerful than our family. There is no reason why others always suffer, just let our family take advantage. When everyone is outside, they always have to talk about the word 'reason'. Ling Teng said softly, "Mother holds my sister is a treasure, that's my own sister, will I take my sister to the outside world." In the same way, Sister Qing is also her aunt's biological daughter, what does the mother do to her sister, and what does the aunt care about Sister Qing. ”

Second Mrs. Ling sneered, "Forget it." I use your brother and sister as eyeballs, how do you know your aunt? Without thinking about it, he told the secret of the year, "At the beginning, when your aunt was growing up, she was pregnant with a dragon and phoenix fetus in her belly. Changqing should have had a younger brother, but the child was not blessed and died at birth. ”

Ling Teng didn't know about this, and exclaimed, "There is still such a thing?!" ”

"Isn't it?" Second Mrs. Ling was a little malicious and a little mocking, and sneered, "Your aunt almost cried for that son, Changqing was also evil when she was a child, she didn't eat a mouthful of milk from your aunt, and your aunt also thought she was very disgusted, and she was born to collect debts!" This is now that your aunt has given birth to Brother Ning and Sister Rong again, Changqing is also older, and she knows how to please her, so she is gentle with Changqing. ”

Ling Teng said, "It stands to reason that this is no wonder Sister Qing, what does she know about it." ”

Second Mrs. Ling was full of anger at Zhao Changqing, and said viciously, "Which one is none of her business?" Dragon and phoenix twins, auspicious things, why is my brother's life short, she is so clever and lively, it can't be said that her life has overwhelmed her brother! ”

Ling Teng frowned, "Mother, you are an aunt, it's not easy to say this!" ”

As she was talking, Third Sister Ling came in with hot brown sugar ginger water and said with a smile, "Just talk about it in your own home, look at your nervous face, who is going to say it!" Master, drink it quickly! ”

Ling Teng said, "Sister also drinks." ”

Second Mrs. Ling smiled, "You don't have to pay attention to her, just look at her appearance, you can know that Lu Dao has already drunk enough in the kitchen!" ”

Third Sister Ling smiled, "Aren't I born to my mother, and I want my mother to talk about drinking brown sugar water!" ”

Second Mrs. Ling pulled her to sit down, held her daughter's black crow by the hair, looked at her daughter's more and more delicate face, the more she looked at it, the more she loved it, and smiled, "If you want to drink, just bring it to the house to drink, I own my daughter, where can I be a mother who can't even give up saliva!" ”

Ling Teng took a sip of sugar water, and Ling Sanjie pointed at him and asked, "Mother, what did this traitor tell you!" ”

Ling Teng suddenly choked on his trachea with a mouthful of sugar water, and coughed non-stop while holding on to the table. Second Mrs. Ling gave her son a good breath while scolding her daughter with a smile, "You have to say these things when you drive your brother to drink water!" ”

Third Sister Ling reached out to wipe Ling Teng's mouth, snorted twice, and said, "It must be that this kid didn't tell me to go to my aunt's house to go to school!" I don't have to guess! ”

Ling Teng took a sip of warm water and rinsed his mouth, returned the handkerchief to Ling Sanjie, and said, "It's not that I didn't ask you to go, it's that you can't take advantage of your aunt's house like this." I also read the list listed by my sister, and we still have the four treasures of the study, when I went to school, my aunt gave me a set, and my grandfather also gave me a set. I used what my grandfather gave, and what my aunt gave me didn't use, so I just used it for you. You don't have to buy the books you learned, I will use them for you first. Just buy you some things for painting, take a tael of silver, and give a gift to Mr. ”

Second Mrs. Ling and Third Sister Ling were worthy of mother and daughter, and said in unison, "How much silver does that get!" ”

Ling Teng waved his hand, "It's not just about silver. Mother thought about it, if our family didn't pay a single money, the eldest aunt would not be able to explain it, and my aunt would never respond. They are all nieces, and they should be treated equally. ”

"Mother don't have the idea of sending my sister directly, the birthday of the ancestor of the Zhu family is in October, last year my sister and I followed Sister Qing in, this year my mother just went to offend my aunt, and then she prevaricated to us with a casual word, if you don't take me and my sister, I don't matter, anyway, I'm familiar with school. It's my sister, my mother and sister are all thinking about getting to know a few more capable people at the banquet, if my aunt doesn't take my sister this time, who will suffer? "The reason doesn't make sense, Ling Teng directly hit the snake seven inches.

Second Mrs. Ling and Third Sister Ling really listened very well, and after a while, Third Sister Ling said stiffly, "You don't necessarily have to follow your aunt in, it's the same if I ask Sister Luan to take me along." ”

Ling Teng sneered, "Sister is really naïve, who is that Sister Luan, but she is just the granddaughter of the third aunt and wife of the Zhu family, the ancestor of the Zhu family may not know which green onion she is!" Sister think about it, it's better for you to be in one place with Sister Qing, or better to be in one place with Sister Luan! If you don't follow your aunt and cousin, you go find an outsider! ”

Third Sister Ling pouted and said, "However, one or two pieces of silver a month is too much." That's enough for me to buy a lot of beads! ”

"This is where it goes. Pen, ink, paper, inkstone, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, which one doesn't need money? In the future, there will be more places to use money. Ling Teng said, "It's just that my sister is bent on learning, and my mother feels sorry for my sister, so I asked you to learn." ”

To use such a sum of silver, Third Sister Ling suddenly lost her mind and looked at her mother with a blank eye.

Second Mrs. Ling also didn't make up her mind whether to spend a lot of money to ask her daughter to go to school.

Ling Teng followed and said, "There is another thing, my sister is going to study, don't stay at my aunt's house, just go back in the morning." ”

Seeing that Third Sister Ling was about to scream, Ling Teng took the initiative, "I'm not biased towards outsiders. Sister think about it, you are going to study, but not to block your aunt, do you want to make trouble people who hate dogs and be disgusted by your aunt's family. ”

Third Sister Ling was angry, "I just live in my aunt's house, what can I eat, where do people hate dogs and abandon them?" ”

Ling Teng said to Second Mrs. Ling, "If Sister Qing lives in our family, she wants to eat, drink, and be raised by her mother, will she please her mother?" It's a truth. Mother just said that Sister Qing is amazing, and her sister has been looking for her several times, but she always makes a shame. If my sister still has the idea of pinching her, don't go at all, it's not that I speak badly, and my sister can't take advantage of Sister Qing! ”

Third Sister Ling had already decided to be unreasonable, and pointed at Ling Teng and said, "Why don't you just recognize Zhao Changqing as your own sister!" ”

Ling Teng sneered, "If you weren't my own sister, I wouldn't have bothered to tell you this!" ”

"Actually, what's the point if you don't go to my aunt's house to study." Ling Teng said, "Mother also heard from Sister Qing, her husband eats and lives for one or two silver a month, and our family also has an empty house, how much can my husband eat alone, and it doesn't hurt to find another gentleman for my sister." It also saves my sister from running to my aunt's house every day to study. It must be inappropriate for my sister to live in my aunt's house, not to mention anything else, she has a bad relationship with her sister, so it won't work. If she goes there by herself every day, renting a car is also an expense, so it is better to hire a gentleman for her. In this way, what she is willing to learn, what her husband tells her. Mr. only taught his sister one, and he was even more attentive. Compared to going to my aunt's house, it doesn't actually cost much money. Buy less flowers for my sister to wear, and have everything. When my sister reads too many books, she has poetry and books in her belly, and she doesn't need those gold and jade decorations at all, and she is just as likable. ”

Mrs. Ling Er told her son that her ears were full of silver, and when she thought of spending her own silver, Mrs. Ling Er was distressed by a thousand hearts and ten thousand reluctant. After thinking about it for a long time, he still couldn't make up his mind, so he simply waved his sleeves and said, "After drinking brown sugar water, hurry up and sweat in the bed, and wait for your father to come back!" ”
