Chapter VII: Speak Up

Zhao Yongzhong's hands and feet trembled, his whole body was cold, he wondered if he was dreaming, were these really the words of his most beloved mother and his most beloved little sister? It hurts him like he has plucked out his heart! Suddenly, he felt that his eyes were black, and he was about to fall to the ground.

Seeing this, the Jiang family and Zhao Sanlang brothers hurriedly supported Zhao Yongzhong and comforted him with good words.

Zhao Siniang and Zhao Sanniang glanced at each other, and the other party's eyes were full of apologies - they wanted to escape from the old Zhao family so much, they didn't take into account Zhao Yongzhong's feelings at all, and Zhao Yongzhong, who regarded his mother as the sky, couldn't bear such a heavy blow!

When everyone heard that Zhao Yongzhong borrowed the money from the seal, they all felt that he shouldn't have it, this money would really ruin the family, unless it was absolutely necessary, it would never be touched! But later, when he saw that Zhao Qiao's words were so ruthless, he almost knocked Zhao Yongzhong to the ground, and he felt a little unbearable.

The warm-hearted Cheng couldn't help but count: "Auntie, Brother Yongzhong went to borrow money from Yinzi, it is indeed that he shouldn't have been." But this borrowing is all borrowed, and the family sits down and discusses how to pay it back, how can they just think about dividing people and picking themselves up? What a chilling thing you say! ”

Li Zheng also nodded and said yes, he still knows a little bit about the old Zhao family's background, and the five guan money is not a big difficulty for the old Zhao family, and it is far from breaking the muscles and bones because of this money. Although they may not have five times of cash at home, they can still get it out of it if they raise money everywhere, and there is no need to give up Zhao Yongzhong's house for five times of money.

But Zhao Qiao's mother and daughter don't think so, in their opinion, the money in the public middle school belongs to them, and it is a waste to spend a penny on Sanfang.

Zhao Chengqing said sharply: "You don't have a backache when you stand and talk, and you don't pay for it!" "Xindao, my mother promised to add another pair of red gold bracelets to the dowry prepared for me, if I repay the debt to the third room, what money will I use to make jewelry? If you want us to pay off our debts, don't even think about it.

Zhao Qiaoshi squinted at Li Zheng and shouted loudly: "Big brother, don't persuade me, we have decided this family." Although you are a lizheng, you can't manage whether you are divided or not! Besides, isn't your family also separated? Why don't you let our family share! "Anyway, the shame has been thrown to grandma's house today, Zhao Qiao's family simply let it go, and it doesn't matter what others think, anyway, it is the most important thing to get benefits for yourself.

Li Zheng was choked by Zhao Qiao's words, and was annoyed in his heart, and reprimanded: "It's not up to you as a woman to make the decision for such a big matter as splitting the family, and this matter has to be decided by Brother Zhengping!" Take 10,000 steps back, even if you want to split the family, Yongzhong's nephew's debt is owed before the family is divided, and you have to pay it back to your old Zhao family! ”

"Brother Justice, don't listen to this girl's nonsense, our family is not separated!" I saw that the old man Zhao was dressed in a short dress, carrying a hoe, separating everyone with his hands, and said breathlessly.

said that no one in the third room was there today, and Zhao Yongxiao went to the town to do odd jobs again, and only Mr. Zhao could go to the ground alone. Old Man Zhao is a master who hates work, and everyone else has gone home one after another, but he still stays in the field that is gradually darkening, bending over and hoeing the grass carefully. It wasn't until a villager told him that there was a disturbance at home, so he hurried back.

Old Man Zhao made a deep bow to the inside, and apologized: "She is a woman, what do you know?" The hair is long, and the insight is short. I'll compensate you on her behalf, but don't forget what you said just now. ”

"Don't tight, don't tight." Li Zheng saw that Old Man Zhao was so sincere, and he didn't care about anything more.

Old Man Zhao smiled to everyone again: "For no reason, it makes the villagers laugh." The child's milk is not sensible, he was just joking, our family will never be separated. ”

"Why don't you break up? The scourge of the three rooms cannot be kept! Although Zhao Chengqing was spoiled by Zhao Qiao's family, he was very willful and reckless, and he didn't know how thick the sky was, but he was still very afraid of his father, and when he saw that his father wanted to calm down, he didn't dare to shout loudly. But if she didn't split up, it was very likely to damage her interests, so she couldn't help but muttered a few words in a low voice.

Old Man Zhao glared at his little daughter and scolded sharply: "But it's a big thing, you guys are stunned to make such a big battle!" It's really nothing to look for, and it's not a shame! ”

Although Zhao Chengqing was not convinced, it could be seen that his father was really angry, and he was so frightened that he lowered his head and didn't dare to say anything.

Zhao Qiaoshi saw that his heart and soul baby had been wronged, he was depressed, and he was very distressed, and retorted loudly: "What is a big sesame thing? Don't you know, your good son actually went to borrow money from Yinzi, which is going to ruin the family! ”

Old man Zhao was taken aback, when he came back from the field, he saw a circle of people around the door of the house, standing outside and only listening to a synopsis, estimating that the family was arguing for Siniang's medicine money, but he didn't expect Sanfang to borrow Yinzi money.

"Third child, did you really borrow money from Yinzi?" Old Man Zhao hurriedly turned his head and asked the third son.

Zhao Yongzhong was still immersed in pain and couldn't extricate himself, looking like he was lost and depressed, and he didn't even notice that Old Man Zhao was back.

Jiang's face was full of worry, and he gently pushed her husband and called, "The child is his father!" ”

Zhao Yongzhong's eyes were blank, and he unconsciously answered with a "uh-huh" sound.

Zhao Sanniang and the sisters are very worried that Zhao Yongzhong will tell the truth and the truth in this state. But the two of them were even more worried that if they repeated the lie of Yinzi money, Old Man Zhao would also choose to give up on them and hit their father again. Sisters, you look at me, I look at you, and in the end, no one made a sound.

"Why, dare to do it? Weren't you still arrogant just now? Why don't you squeak now! Zhao Chengqing saw that the people in the third room were silent, and felt that they were empty-hearted, so he jumped out again.

"Dad, if they don't speak, it means that they acquiesce, if these poor ghosts don't borrow money from Yinzi, how can they have money to treat that money-losing goods!" Zhao Chengqing said triumphantly.

"Shut up! That's your brother and your niece, how do you talk! Old Man Zhao scolded.

Zhao Qiaoshi was dissatisfied: "What are you doing scolding your daughter?" Now it's the people in the third room who have poked the basket, what are you angry with your daughter! ”

Old Man Zhao was anxious to know if Sanfang had really borrowed money from Yinzi, so he ignored Zhao Qiao's nonsense and continued to interrogate Zhao Yongzhong.

Zhao Chengqing, who was supported by Zhao Qiao's family, became more and more nervous, and persuaded his father with "good words": "Dad, don't ask, everyone has heard it, can it be fake?" Our family doesn't have the money to pay off the debts of the third house, and they have to find a way to repay the debts they owe! We have to hurry up and divide the three rooms, or the debt collector will come to the door, and we will be unlucky together! ”

"Sister Chengqing, the hairpin on your head is so beautiful! This is the style of Ruifu Pavilion, the largest jewelry store in the county! Liang, the second daughter-in-law of the Li Zheng family, suddenly asked curiously.

"Who said it was an imitation? This is what I bought from the Rich Chamber! Although Zhao Chengqing didn't understand it, she was obviously talking about splitting up the family, why did someone suddenly go around her hairpin? However, this hairpin is her proudest, and she has been wearing it every day since she bought it a year ago, and it is absolutely intolerable for someone to say that it is a fake.

"This hairpin is really from Ruifu Pavilion?" Liang's eyes widened, looking incredulous, as if to say that you can also afford to buy a hairpin from Ruifu Pavilion?

Zhao Chengqing couldn't be stimulated the most, she touched the hairpin very lovingly, and said loudly: "Of course, and this hairpin is full of red gold!" ”

Liang glanced at Zhao Chengqing with a smile, and said: "Our Liang Ji's general number happens to be located opposite Ruifu Pavilion. As soon as I came out of Liang Ji, I vaguely saw Aunt Qiao and her two younger sisters coming out of the Ruifu Pavilion, and I thought I was mistaken! ”

"You read that right, this hairpin was bought by my mother for me and my sister, and each of us sisters has one!" Zhao Chengqing looked proud, but he didn't notice that Zhao Qiaoshi kept giving her a look and asked her to stop talking.

Liang's maiden family is the owner of the grain shop "Liang Kee". If you want to talk about Liang Ji, it is one of the largest grain shops in Jinghai County, and the Liang family is one of the most counted families in the county.

To say that under normal circumstances, it is impossible for the Li Zheng family to climb to the Liang family no matter what, and to marry such a daughter-in-law, it was when Li Zheng's father Zhao Laoxiu was a small official in the county seat, and he did the Liang family a big favor, and the old man Liang insisted on marrying his granddaughter to the benefactor's little grandson in order to repay the favor. At the time of the marriage, Liang Kee was still a small shop, and by the time the two children grew up, Liang Kee had become a large grain store with dozens of semicolons. Just when everyone speculated that the Liang family would break the marriage contract, the Liang family still kept their promise and married their daughter to a small village.

Such a trustworthy family, of course, will not be bad for the girls who are taught! Seeing that Zhao Qiao's mother and daughter were really shameless, the Liang family decided to come out and speak up.

"Oh, the hairpin of Ruifu Pavilion is still full of red gold, and this pair will cost ten yuan to say the least!" Liang looked very envious and sighed.

"Where can you buy ten pieces of money, and you can get ...... pair"

"That's it!" Zhao Chengqing's smug words were interrupted by Zhao Qiaoshi, she looked at Zhao Qiaoshi in confusion, only to see her mother looking embarrassed, as if she had been caught doing something bad.

"This, we can't afford this hairpin, or Cheng Lan paid for it for her sister." Zhao Qiaoshi explained weakly.

Most of the people in the township are simple, and there are very few people who are as "shrewd and capable" as Zhao Qiaoshi. But everyone is not stupid, and they are not deaf, everyone heard Zhao Chengqing say that the hairpin was bought by her mother. Everyone thinks that they have the money to buy jewelry for their daughter, but they don't have the money to see a doctor for their granddaughter, who believes it? Well, even if you really don't have any cash, you can use the hairpin as it! Taking a step back, do you think your granddaughter is a loser and doesn't want to pay, so what about Zhao Yongzhong? That's your own son! is obviously capable but stands by and watches, this is forcing Zhao Yongzhong to death!

For a while, everyone looked at Zhao Yongzhong with sympathetic eyes, and some of the older ones even began to think about whether Zhao Yongzhong was brought back by Zhao Qiao's family, how could there be such a ruthless mother?
