After the barefoot doctor left, Zhang lay motionless on the kang and instructed the fourth child: "I'm hungry, go and ask your mother-in-law to make me some food." ”

"Mother, my mother-in-law is pregnant now, why do you keep calling her, the third sister-in-law is not standing outside, you let the third sister-in-law do it for you!" Right? Third brother? Tang Tiequan was puzzled, the third sister-in-law didn't instruct her, she had to let her mother-in-law who was pregnant with Liujia cook, and refuted his mother with a bad face.

Tang Tiefeng said lightly: "When the family was separated, it had already been made clear that my father and mother would be supported by you when they were old, and now that my mother's left leg is broken, it is the time for you to perform, you can't just enjoy your father's and mother's giving, and don't pay anything in return," It's not that he doesn't know that his mother often subsidizes the fourth child's money to let him go to the town to buy food, and his family is fortunate to save some money and reserve some food, otherwise their family may have to starve to death in this world.

Zhang watched her two sons push her around, and said angrily: "It's really a long time before the bed without filial piety, the old lady hasn't spread on the kang yet, you just push and hinder like this,"

Tang Tiequan saw his mother lose his temper, and hurriedly comforted: "Mother, I'll cook for you." "There is no mention of his mother-in-law.

Tang Tiefeng saw the fourth child go out, and his mother and old god were lying on the kang and said: "Mother, since you are fine, I will rest assured, and I will take my mother-in-law and the babies back to my house." ”

"I'm like this, and you still think of your vicious mother-in-law in your heart." Zhang deliberately sent the fourth branch out, just to have a good talk with the third child, but who expected that he didn't want to stay in the house with her for a while.

"Mother, why are you still talking like this, my daughter-in-law gave birth to three babies for me, and I have no credit and hard work for our old Tang family, you open your mouth and shut up and curse her, if you let the babies hear it, what should you think."

"You can think whatever you want! I can't count on my own sons, and I can count on grandchildren, it's ridiculous! Zhang looked at Lao Sandao mockingly.

Tang Tiefeng saw that his mother was still quite unreasonable, couldn't listen to people's words, didn't bother to pay attention to her, and turned around and went out to find her mother-in-law.

That night, Tang Liang went to Tang Qing'er's room and said, "Sister, last time I borrowed money from you, you agreed to lend me money, so when will you give me the money?"

Tang Qing'er said: "It's okay to give you money, but you have to tell me what kind of business you want to do with this money,"

Tang Liang thought for a while, a thousand taels of silver is indeed a lot of silver, and said: "Since the last time my brother-in-law told me about Fan Li's deeds, I had an idea in my heart, I happened to know a caravan some time ago, and I followed the caravan to look around." ”

Tang Qing'er's body shook and said, "That's the idea you made?" ”

"Well, I already have a rough plan in mind, let me hear it with you." Tang Liang's eyes lit up.

"I want to take some of the jujube wine I used to brew with the caravan, because no one has ever drunk the jujube wine, if I walk along the road and meet someone with a discerning eye to sell it to him, and after making money, I will buy some local things and go to other places to exchange them, so that I can barter or sell things for money, maybe I can make a lot of profit from it."

"I have to say that your idea is very good, but things are not as simple and easy as you said, Fan Li I also know some deeds, although he has a business mind, but in my opinion the opportunity also accounts for a small half, according to legend, Fan Li once went to Lu's business, came to a market town, there is a big lake next to the market town, the town is very lively, there are all kinds of shops, people are bustling, even under the big tree is full of grocery stalls, there are fur meat and all kinds of mountain goods."

He eased his breath and continued: "I asked people to know that this is the past when the flood flowed, Yu controlled the water under the Bears Ears Mountain Guxin Luyi, at that time King Yu led the workers in the northeast corner of the mountain to split the mountain and open stones, dredge the river, so that the water level of Luoshui flows eastward, leaving a large lake of dozens of miles, people live and work in peace and contentment in the lakeside town, Fan Li learned that the local walnuts, fungus, mountain delicacies, meat and fur, grain and medicinal materials and other local products, but the farmers lack salt, kudzu linen cloth, daily miscellaneous goods, etc., Fan Li felt that a good opportunity to do business had come. ”

Tang Liang answered: "So, Fan Li opened a local grocery store and started the business of buying mountain goods. ”

"Yes, seeing more and more goods, Fan Li found someone to sort and classify each kind of goods, put the high-quality goods separately, according to the needs of merchants from all over the country, first transport all kinds of high-quality goods out of the mountain with livestock, and send them to the places where the goods are sold, after earning money, he went to the market to buy back salt, kudzu linen cloth clothes and all kinds of daily groceries, etc., these purchased goods were quickly sold out, he calculated the profits of going back and forth, and made a lot of money, not everyone has such a mind and opportunity." Tang Qing'er continued.

Tang Liang said excitedly: "Eldest sister, I just want to become a businessman like Fan Li,"

Tang Qing'er didn't want to hit Tang Liang, but he now had this idea, as his relative, she had to say: "Fan Li has a very thorough view of how to make profits and accumulate money in the process of exchanging goods, and you, as a fledgling businessman, how can you have his courage, business must be combined with "time break" and "wisdom judgment", and you must know how to grasp the "degree" in order to be invincible, can you do this?" ”

"Humph! Eldest sister, you underestimate me. Tang Liang's face was uneasy.

Tang Qing'er shook her head and said: "It's not that I underestimate you, you are a little conceited about your mind now, what if you really go with the caravan, alone, without relatives, what should you do if you are in trouble?" Have you thought about it? ”

"Eldest sister, the money wants to go like flowing water, no matter where you go, as long as your mind can still turn, you will definitely be able to come back alive, come back or come back with beautiful scenery, you still think I am a three-year-old Huangkou child?" Tang Liang cut the railway.

Tang Qing'er saw that he was so determined, he didn't know what to do, no wonder he asked him last time, he didn't say anything, and coaxed himself to give him the money with sweet words, but now she dug a pit and jumped down by herself, so she was a little embarrassed: "Let me think about ......." ”

Tang Liang said anxiously: "Eldest sister, what's the matter with you, I told you the truth of the matter, you actually plan to regret it,"

"When did I regret it, but what you said had a big impact on me, I thought you were going to do business in the town, where did you think that you wanted to follow the caravan, the caravan has always been to go south and north, and it is easy to meet bandits, what if something happens to you?"

"Eldest sister, where did you hear these things?" Tang Liang asked, he also knew from his friends that caravans are easy to encounter bandits, the eldest sister is a woman in the boudoir, and the door is not out of the second door, where do you know these things, it is the travelogue that her brother-in-law found for her, and it does not necessarily record these things!

Tang Qing'er was anxious, so she said what she was thinking, and said embarrassedly: "I heard it from your brother-in-law." ”

After all, Tang Liang is still a half-old boy, and many things are unthinkable for a while, and when he heard the eldest sister say this, he didn't ask in detail, after all, his brother-in-law was a god in his heart, and pleaded with a bitter face: "Eldest sister......"

"I didn't know what was going on when I agreed to lend money to you, and I was saying that even if I agreed, my father and mother might not agree," Tang Qing'er could only push the matter on her father.

"Eldest sister, it's better to teach people to fish than to teach them to fish." Tang Liang said with a flattering smile at Tang Qing'er after muttering a sentence.

Tang Qing'er was not confused by Tang Liang's yellow soup, where did his younger brother not know his temperament, this kid's head turned fast since he was a child, and his idea was very big, so he thought for a moment and asked straightforwardly: "How are you going to tell your father and mother about this." ”

Tang Liang smiled, he didn't dare to mention this matter to his father, for fear that he would turn his back on his mother, his father and mother were good at everything, that is, they had a calf protector, if they knew his plan, they would not let him go, and they would not be beaten with a stick.

Seeing him like this, Tang Qing'er hooked the corners of her mouth and said, "Are you planning to use me as cannon fodder?" ”

"Eldest sister, why do you say that, we are sisters and brothers," he said, shaking his head with his hands raised.

provoked Tang Qing'er to cry and laugh a little, only pointed at Tang Liang's forehead with his finger, and said: "If you twist this arm again, you will twist it off, since you have already told me about it, what do you want me to do for you?" ”

Tang Liang straightened his face and said: "Even if my father and mother stop me, I have to go to see the outside world, and I don't want to be like the frog at the bottom of the well who only sees a place as big as the mouth of the well." ”

Tang Qing'er sighed and said, "Well, I know your determination,"

After Tang Liang went out, Tang Qing'er walked around the house, not knowing what to do, promise him! Daddy and mother are not at ease, and she is not at ease, so don't promise him! I also feel that the bird is too big, and sooner or later it will spread its wings and soar, and the circle cannot be circled.

Tang Qing'er felt that she had to find someone to discuss this matter, and immediately thought of Xue Qianxun in her mind, and when Xue Qianxun came to the house at noon, Tang Qing'er pulled him into the house and said to him: "Liang'er wants to follow the caravan to do business." ”

"Oh! No wonder he's been pulling me to ask about caravans lately, and I'm still wondering how he's interested in this. ”

"And what do you think?"

"Do I think so, man? Ambition in all directions, you can't stay in one place all the time, it's easy to be blind. ”

"But what if he follows the caravan and encounters bandits."

"Don't worry, the average bandit is all about rich caravans, and the caravan he followed should be the Wu family in the town, and the Wu family still has some connections on the road, so the possibility of encountering bandits is very small."

"Listening to you say this, my heart can be more stable, this kid really doesn't say it, it's amazing, he told me last night, I didn't close my eyes all night, I have been thinking about this in my heart, my father and mother don't know, if you know his mind, maybe you have to lift the roof of the house"

"Alas! Why are there so many things in your family, finally the people in Tangjia Village have stopped, and something has happened here in Tang Liang, when are you going to talk to your father and mother about our affairs. ”

"It's all at this juncture, are you still thinking about this?"

"Of course I have to think, now that my family is also messing around, I'm afraid that our marriage will change, or get married early, so I can settle down."

Tang Qing'er often heard him mention this in the past two days, and said with a solemn face: "I'll mention it to my father and mother these two days!" ”

Xue Qianxun was happy in his heart, sure enough, the woman couldn't stand the man's bitter tricks the most, and Qing'er, who had always been shrewd and capable, was also deceived by him, but said with a straight face: "En." I wish she had told her family soon.
