Chapter 57
Zhao Changqing is by no means a person who is easy to bully.
Old Lady Ling didn't understand what her granddaughter meant for a while, and looked at Zhao Changqing in confusion, Zhao Changqing said softly, "Yes, I'm sick, my family asked me to take medicine, I don't know how much money I spent, the second aunt won't be going to pay it back, right?" There are also three cousins who owe me, everything is well documented, it is better to calculate them all together. ”
Old Lady Ling was suddenly dumbfounded, and Zhao Changqing continued, "Since my brother settles the accounts, I know that my grandmother may not be able to be the head of the second uncle's family, so it is better to call the second uncle over and tell the matter away." ”
Mrs. Ling is not a person who can't do it, compared to a sour husband, Mrs. Ling has been taking care of the affairs of the family for many years. However, Mrs. Ling didn't expect Zhao Changqing to be able to speak so much at such a young age.
Zhao Changqing looked at Mrs. Ling calmly and asked, "Grandmother, do you think what I said is reasonable?" ”
Old Lady Ling lowered her mouth before she regained her voice, her emotions couldn't be concealed, and she sighed, "Miss Qing is right, it should be like this." ”
The white lady took the clean dress, and Zhao Changqing got up with a smile, "Mother, grandmother, I'll go change the skirt." ”
Ling was very satisfied with Zhao Changqing's proposal and smiled, "Go ahead." ”
Zhao Changqing left, and Old Lady Ling said in a low voice, "After all, it's your second brother's house." ”
Ling's displeasure, "Mother didn't say it, I forgot that this is my second brother's house, Changqing is still their niece!" "When she bullied her daughter, why didn't anyone say that!
Mrs. Ling was busy and said a lot of soft words to coax her daughter, but the matter of settling accounts had been decided, and Mrs. Ling had no choice but to go back and discuss with her old man.
Mrs. Ling said something that was not very elegant, "Whoever causes trouble is asked to solve it, how can I wipe their butts for a lifetime!" ”
Old Lady Ling sighed, "Miss Qing can really speak." ”
Mrs. Ling was completely tired of Mrs. Ling, and said, "Not everyone is easy to provoke. Qing girl has never been a reluctant character, and the second family should eat this lesson. When the second child comes, you tell him this and tell him to take care of it himself. ”
When the relatives came to settle accounts, Ling's second uncle Ling Teng felt a little sad. Second Uncle Ling said, "I don't know how much silver your aunt wants?" ”
Ling Teng pondered for a moment and said, "Auntie is not an unreasonable person, even if she asks for some medicine money, she will not open her mouth." It's good to be able to solve it like this, now it's better to take my mother and sister back first, if this matter is hidden from my mother, it will naturally be easy to do. However, if she didn't tell her to know the truth, she would inevitably have to go to her aunt's house to find out what was wrong afterwards. It's better to solve it all together. ”
Now, Second Uncle Ling listened to his son in everything and said, "Yes." ”
Second Mrs. Ling's life in the nunnery was not easy, she was originally a picker, and she didn't give much money for incense. The nuns in the nunnery looked at the money and put down the dishes, and the incense money given by Mrs. Ling was limited, so the life was quite hard.
Seeing her husband coming to pick her up, Second Mrs. Ling couldn't wait to fly back with her daughter's wings, so she didn't forget to ask, "Zhao Changqing's girl woke up?" ”
Second Uncle Ling sighed, "Thank God, Changqing is safe and sound." ”
Second Mrs. Ling snorted, "What can she do?" I don't know if it's deliberately pretending to be scary! ”
Second Uncle Ling scolded angrily, "Just shut up!" You put it on me to try! ”
Second Mrs. Ling's eyes widened, "I have been suffering and freezing in the nunnery with my daughter for these days, as soon as you come, your nose is not a nose, and your eyes are not eyes, you just go over with your niece!" Do you still have any intimacy inside and out! ”
Second Uncle Ling is not a person who is completely in the bag, he has at least taken care of the farm shop for the family in the past, and he knows how to get some private houses to live a small life. Second Uncle Ling said tiredly, "Is it because I don't distinguish between relatives and relatives, or you don't know what to do." If you continue to make trouble, you won't have to live a long time. ”
After many years of husband and wife, Mrs. Ling said, "Okay, I also know that Zhao Changqing is safe, and I am also relieved." It's a big deal that I'll stay away from her in the future, otherwise one day I'll go crazy, and I'll have to count it on someone else's head. ”
Second Uncle Ling simply didn't tell his wife about Zhao Changqing's medical expenses, and he had to go home and see how his son made arrangements. The son is too capable, and Second Uncle Ling unconsciously wants to be lazy.
In the eyes of Second Uncle Ling, Ling Teng's son is definitely the most glorious and proud thing in his life. Moreover, no matter what it is, as long as it is handed over to the son, it will be handled properly and not let people worry about it.
It's just that, to the surprise of Second Uncle Ling, Ling Teng didn't have any persuasion and comfort, and after eating, he directly told his mother about Zhao Changqing's medical expenses. Second Mrs. Ling was furious at the moment and scolded, "What medical expenses! I still have to pay for medicine! That girl didn't scream at anything, and it deafened the old lady's ears! The old lady still wants to find her to pay for her ears! Beautiful her! Poor and crazy! Tell her that the old lady has no life if she asks for money! "She is the only one who takes advantage of others, when has she been cheated! Second Mrs. Ling scolded for half an hour!
Ling Teng didn't say a word, and said lightly, "I'm going to read a book." ”
This is the right matter, Second Mrs. Ling hurriedly relieved her breath and said softly, "Go ahead." He said to the little girl at home, "Gather a pot of charcoal fire in Ateng's house, it burns vigorously, don't freeze him." ”
Ling Teng was reading a book in the room, and he could still hear his mother's chattering complaints, he sighed lightly, and put all his thoughts in the book.
Second Mrs. Ling only thought that everything would be fine if she didn't give money, and she didn't want to wait a few days, so the head of the house invited Second Uncle Ling over.
In these days, people live in groups.
In some cases, the law of the clan is even greater than the law of the state.
Every clan has a patriarch. Generally, even major matters in the clan are handled by the patriarch. Of course, the patriarch does not exist alone, and there are also the head of the house and the head of the column under the patriarch. The pillar head is the person who helps the patriarch with daily affairs, such as rent collection, sacrificial activities, weddings and funerals, and so on. The head of the house is the head of each room, the oldest person with the highest rank.
At the beginning, Uncle Ling and Second Uncle Ling split up, and the clan elder invited by Mrs. Ling was the witness of the head of their house.
Mrs. Ling is counted as a small seven-room in the Ling family, and the head of the house is seven, and Mrs. Ling also has to be called the seventh uncle, and the clan is called the seventh old lady.
The Seventh Old Lady ordered someone to invite Mrs. Ling and Second Uncle Ling to her home, frowned and said to Second Uncle Ling, "I heard that your wife is really not virtuous, and her own girl has not repaid her debts, and she almost forced her niece to death. Now even other people's medical money has to be relied on, but is there such a thing? ”
Second Uncle Ling hurriedly said, "Seventh Grandpa, how did a little matter in the family alarm your old man?" ”
The seventh old lady was dressed in a sauce-colored silk shirt, and her old face was already goosebumps, and when she heard this, she glanced at Second Uncle Ling, "It's not small." How is it a trivial matter to almost kill someone? The head of the Zhao family came to me for comment, and I had to ask you to ask for it! People are reasonable, what are you going to do? Don't you want to stab the patriarch? ”
"No, no, no." Second Uncle Ling hurriedly said, "I originally planned to go to my sister's house in the next few days, but who knew that I would ask Seventh Grandpa to bother?" It's really unfilial piety to the descendants. ”
The seventh old lady said lightly, "As a gentleman in the family, how can you ask a woman to and pee on your head, if she is really not virtuous, I will take a leave of absence on your father's behalf!" It's not for nothing that someone else marries a good one! If the world is always restless because of a woman, it's not a long way! ”
Second Uncle Ling broke out in a cold sweat and said, "Although Neizi is a little strong, in the end, she will give birth to children for me, beg Seventh Grandpa to give her a chance, I will definitely teach her." ”
The seventh old lady said, "Whatever you want." It's a good thing, don't put it off. Think about it, it's your own sister and niece, you act like this, it doesn't hurt your relatives! ”
Second Uncle Ling said yes.
After talking for a while, the seventh old lady did not leave a meal, so he sent their father and son back.
At the Seventh Old Lady's house, Mrs. Ling didn't say a word for Second Uncle Ling. Second Uncle Ling really wanted to discuss it with his father, but Master Ling blocked him back with a word, "Your own affairs, take care of it yourself." "I didn't care about it.
Second Uncle Ling went home, and Second Mrs. Ling was sewing her husband's New Year's jacket, and the needle was drawn between the sideburns, and she asked while sewing, "What is the seventh old lady looking for you?" Is it a division of things in the Nianxia clan? ”
Second Uncle Ling sat in the chair and said, "The Seventh Old Lady told me to divorce you." ”
Mrs. Ling Er poked her thumb with a needle, and immediately the blood gushed out, and she hurriedly stuffed it into her mouth and sucked it a few times, straightening her neck and saying loudly, "What did you say?" ”
Second Uncle Ling's face turned pale and said, "You forced Changqing to death in the past, the Seventh Old Lady already knows the truth. You refused to pay back the money, so the head of the Zhao family came forward and went to reason with the seventh old lady. The seventh old lady said, if you don't solve this matter, tell me to divorce you. ”
Mrs. Ling Er pricked the needle into her padded jacket and said in a loud voice, "What do you say?" Do you just listen to his Zhao family's reasoning? What's wrong with me! I also went to the Seventh Old Lady! I just don't give money! ”
Second Uncle Ling sighed, "I said I couldn't move you, and no one in our family could say that I couldn't move you." The family is letting you, think about it, will others let you! This matter has already been stabbed to the head of the house, if you still don't stop, the patriarch can't hide it! There is no result in the trouble with the patriarch, believe it or not, she sued the yamen! Once through the yamen, the family is embarrassed! How the clan will tolerate you! Hello so strong, what exactly are you going to do! Think about it, if the clan really divorced you! How to behave as a third sister called Brother Teng! Brother Teng learned to read and write when he was three or four years old, and until now, he has said that he has a future! If it were known that he had an abandoned mother, his life would be over! After the words reached the end, Second Uncle Ling roared angrily, "That's my own sister!" Changqing is my niece! You almost forced her to death, what's wrong with paying a few taels of silver! Is it because of these few taels of silver that our family is ruined, you are happy! ”
Second Uncle Ling's eyes were red with anger, and as if he was crazy, Second Mrs. Ling was so frightened that she hurriedly said, "What are you doing, just pay for it, pay for it." Second Mrs. Ling said with tears in her eyes, "It's not easy to save money at home, and I'm just thinking about putting the money on you." Am I so ignorant of what is good and bad, and I value silver more than my husband and my children? Give it, give it, let's give as much as she wants. ”
Thinking of the money to be given, Second Mrs. Ling hugged her husband and cried bitterly.
After Ling Teng went home, Second Uncle Ling told Ling Teng about the matter, and Ling Teng's face was not different, and said, "Since my mother has no opinion, my sister and I will go to my aunt's house with my father and mother tomorrow to handle the matter." ”
Second Mrs. Ling's eyes were red and swollen, her nasal voice was thick, and she said, "Such a little thing, you have to do it!" I delayed those homework a few days ago, and it was only right to go to school. Okay, I know that if you don't worry about me, don't you just bow your head to your aunt. I was a sister-in-law, and I used to let my sister-in-law go a lot. You go to school to study, and you worry about your family. I also realized, and your sister has also learned a lesson, and our family has been far away from them since then. ”
Ling Teng didn't persuade much, and went to the room to warm up the book after dinner.
Zhao Changqing's life is leisurely, her body has fully recovered, and the only thing she is not comfortable with is that her strength seems to be much greater than before. Zhao Changqing asked Mr. Su, "Is it because of the medicinal bath?" ”
Mr. Su raised his eyebrows, "If the bubble medicated bath had such skills, I would have soaked it myself." After a moment of silence, Mr. Su said, "Maybe it was a fall." ”
Zhao Changqing was dumbfounded, "Fell?" "Can a wrestler become a Hercules?
Mr. Su said, "The head is the most complex part of the human body. In fact, I think that human beings must have had many incredible abilities in the past, such as the Yanhuang period, when war was like a myth. Of course, today's people don't have the skills they had at that time, but people with excellent martial arts are also more powerful than ordinary people. It's just that no matter how you cultivate martial arts, I'm afraid you don't have the skills of the human race in ancient times. ”
For example, monks pay attention to becoming Buddhas, and they are known as Buddhism. Taoism pays attention to becoming immortals, and is known as Taoism. Buddhism, Dharma and Taoism, except for the difference in names, in fact, whether it is becoming a Buddha or becoming an immortal, it represents an extremely incredible amount of power. This amount of force can only be found in legends. Mr. Su said, "Let's think deeper, where did the legend come from?" Is it a long time ago, there really was such a part of people with superior strength, in order to distinguish this part of the people from ordinary people, we called them immortals. ”
Zhao Changqing looked at his hand and raised his face to look at Mr. Su, "Could it be that I have become an immortal?" ”
Mr. Su smiled, "You are still 108,000 miles away from becoming an immortal." However, the fact that you suddenly have this strength is by no means the reason for taking a medicinal bath, and other than that, I deduce, it must have fallen. ”
"What then?"
"It's a godsend, just let it be." Mr. Su said, "Some people have practiced hard for more than ten years, and they may not be able to crush the tea cup." You suddenly have this ability, I don't know how many people envy it. Don't show off to the outside, and if anyone asks, just say that you had a dream, and that the Bodhisattva gave you the skill. Hey, it's actually not bad to practice martial arts. ”
Zhao Changqing's eyes lit up, "Mr. will still be able to do martial arts?" ”
Mr. Su smiled, "I'm a lady." Still, there are a few simple things that can help you. ”
Zhao Changqing listened attentively, and Mr. Su said, "I have to think about it carefully, and wait until you settle the Ling family's affairs." ”
Zhao Changqing was not worried, and said, "When they send the silver, it will be fine." ”
Mr. Su played with a few clouds that were as warm as jade in his hand, and said, "If the head of the house comes forward, the Ling family will still not be taught?" ”
"It's useless for the head of the house to come forward, and the patriarch. The patriarch is not good, and there is also the yamen. Zhao Changqing said, "I'm really not afraid of spending it with them." If you don't steam steamed buns and fight for breath, you have to endure such bullying in vain, you really don't have to live. ”
Mr. Su reminded with a smile, "No one in the Ling family is to be feared, but it is your little cousin, who is talented and persevering at a young age, and it is really difficult to say what the future will be." ”
Zhao Changqing said, "If you endure it now, you will inevitably be looked down upon?" What's more, my second aunt is the most proficient. The thing she cares about most in her life, except for my cousin, is silver. This time, I asked her to come back to blood, so that she could have a longer memory. ”
"Besides, Ling Teng has a future, and I also have a future." Zhao Changqing's eyes were full of determination, looking out the window at the heavy snow, and said in a deep voice, "There is nothing to fear." ”
