"Vegetable two. This time, even if I help you for the sake of Zhu'er's face, you have to hold it steady, and you can't be soft-hearted. ”

The iron butler sat at the table and drank tea while explaining the second dish.

Cai Er hurriedly lowered his head and said obediently: "Master housekeeper, don't worry." The villain still understands this truth. This is all for the good of the eldest brother, if he does not completely isolate those gamblers, sooner or later he will sell his wife and children. ”

Just now, the iron housekeeper really came to the vegetable garden as his daughter said, and it turned out that Lin Zhu went to the iron housekeeper early in the morning and asked him to help educate Lin Yi. The iron housekeeper was entrusted by Yan Wuwu to take care of Lin Zhu, and he was angry about Lin Yiyi and Lin Sangen secretly escaping last time, so he agreed.

He just sent someone to set up a little game, and Lin Yiyi, who had been red-eyed after gambling all night, got into it by himself. At this time, he only needs to send someone to say hello, and Lin Yiyi will be sent back. Of course, when he returns, he will speak.

He stroked his beard and nodded, "Caier, you are an honest person." Before leaving, the son specially asked the old man to take care of you, although your eldest brother is the same mother as you, but he is lazy and addicted to gambling, if you don't reform well, you will be a drag on you in the future. Now that you are old, you will be a good person to the end, and a bad person will be a bad person to the end, so find a good place for you to fight your eldest brother. and let him return your money little by little. ”

If you don't do a good job, the consequences are really unimaginable. Now the old lady is alive. The family can still stabilize a little, if the old lady is not there in the future, it is possible for this big-brother who bets on red eyes to sell his son, sell his daughter and sell his wife, he has heard many such examples.

He vigorously said some kind words of gratitude to the iron butler.

The iron butler looked at Lin Zhu meaningfully and said, "This is all the meaning of Zhu'er." If you want to thank you, thank your family. Since this matter is settled, you go to your mother and ask her to press a handprint, and your eldest brother will be a person in the Yanfu Mill in the future. Meals are taken care of, and there is a monthly salary. You can go home for three days. ”

After speaking, he added: "But don't worry, if he dares to gamble in the future, the consequences will be very serious." Nor will it run around. , in short, this time he must be a good man. ”

Cai Er lowered his head even deeper, he wanted to say that if he could, it would be best to transform the third brother well.

But he didn't dare to say it. There is no big brother. The third brother is more or less still a little bit old. Don't trouble the housekeeper anymore.

Lin Zhang's followed Caier over after a while, and stood in front of the iron butler with low eyebrows and obedient eyes.

The iron butler coughed lightly a few times, and said to her very seriously: "Lin Zhang's family." Your boss is in trouble this time. During this time, the imperial court ordered that all the subjects of our southern Qin Kingdom were not allowed to gather to gamble. The government officials are arrested every day in the counties, prefectures, counties, towns and villages. Now he's hitting people again. It stands to reason that this time his board room is seated. But since Cai Er came to beg me, I also sold him face, and it just so happened that the head catcher had a very good relationship with me. I told him that this person was brought out by a subordinate from the Yanfu Mill. But the man is coming out. I took him back to the mill in Yanfu, and he stayed there to be a subordinate in the future, and you know the moon of Yanfu. That's all, if you think you can press a handprint, and you will receive the monthly salary he sends later. Let me make it clear that the work at the mill is tiring,"

You don't have to sit in a board room, and you can make money.

Lin Zhang's face was full of smiles and said, "Yes, of course." The housekeeper is really a good person, a bodhisattva. After the old woman went back, she must have prayed for the blessing of the official family several times for many years. ”

The iron steward said: "That's not necessary, being kind to others is the principle of being a decrepit man." As long as your eldest son can get rid of the problem of idleness in the future, it can be regarded as helping Cai Er. ”

Lin Zhang was illiterate, and she couldn't read the reversal of black and white, and she didn't ask the iron butler what was written on the paperwork, so she pressed her fingerprint. He took one and carefully put it in his arms. Wait for the iron butler's next orders.

The iron housekeeper also put it away and said, "Lin Zhang, for the sake of Cai Er's face, your eldest grandson will let him come back for three days when he gets married, but he needs to stay at home obediently and not go out during these three days." He's a nominal person, and if he is caught by the government officials, I don't have the ability to take him out a second time. ”

Lin Zhang agreed to everything at this time. Thank you again and again. She had a large head, a short neck, and a head full of gray hair that looked like a bird's nest. Standing in front of the iron butler, he bowed and nodded one after another, and his greasy hair smelled unpleasant.

The iron butler fanned with his hand with a little disgust, and when he saw that the matter was done, he said, "Lin Zhang, if there is nothing to do, you can go back first, I still have something to say."

Lin Zhang's only walked out of the vegetable garden, leaned against the wall of the earthen courtyard and let out a long breath, and patted his chest with one hand.

The eldest son is already in his forties and fifty, and many people of his age have fields and houses, and they are still wandering around. The same group of hairy boys are fighting for their spirits. I don't care about my wife and children at home.

She prefers this son the most, but he is not angry. Now that someone is disciplining her and giving her money, she really can't ask for such a good thing.

This is all the credit of the honest second son. Don't look at the second son's honesty, he is still a good person.

At this time, she knew that the second son who had been squeezing was good. An honest man has the blessing of an honest man.

Seeing her fat body disappear in front of him, the iron butler turned to Cai Er and said, "Your eldest brother took away your ten taels of silver." I will deduct five dollars from you every month in the future, which will be calculated for nearly two years. However, it can only be deducted like this, and too many deductions will make people say that Yanfu is harsh on subordinates. ”

If you can catch it back, it is already burning high incense, and Cai Er hurriedly said: "It's all up to the housekeeper." ”

The two gossiped for a while.

Lin Zhu added tea on the side and asked, "Uncle Tie, Brother Dabao has a letter, is he okay over there?" ”

Dabao has been gone for so long, and there is no news.

The iron butler frowned and said, "Where will it be good to go to the border gate?" A few days ago, I wrote that I had stepped back a few miles. Ay. There are more than 100,000 people, and we have less than 50,000, plus the people are spontaneous, and the disparity in strength is huge, so it is good to be able to resist a whole child. It seems that Dingyuan is about to be lost. The old man just begged for my lone son to return safely. If he comes back. Lao Yu will definitely take him back to his hometown, buy a land and a house, marry a daughter-in-law, and give birth to several grandchildren. ”

In the past few months since his son left, he hasn't had a good night's sleep;

The two of them honestly couldn't speak, and they didn't know what to say, so they just watched with blank eyes.

Lin Zhu comforted and said: "Uncle Tie, the people of Dabao Geji have their own natural appearance. Besides, he is with a carefree child. That Dingyuan Marquis is the uncle of the carefree son, how could he let them have an accident? Besides, if something really happens. Jin Gongzi has already gone back. ”

The iron butler sighed and said, "I hope it is as you say." Your Uncle Tie is absent-minded now. strain. If you have anything to do in the future, just come to me. I can't take care of you anymore. ”

The iron butler slowly got up and said goodbye and left.

Caiji took Lin Zhu and sent him to the gate. , watching his already rickety body slowly turn around the corner.

"Dad, if you have time to sit with Uncle Tie in the future, he will be pitiful."

Lin Zhu took Caier's arm into the vegetable garden.

Caiji said, "My daughter is right. In the past, my father always felt that people were dignified housekeepers. I don't know how many people are stammering behind their butts. Let's stay away from each other as a vegetable grower, lest people say that we have something to ask for. Now it seems that it is better to accompany him. ”

The father and daughter returned to the house. saw Cai Er Niangzi sitting at the table sadly.

Cai Er asked puzzledly: "Zhu'er Niang, what are you doing here?" The butler has already helped us recover the money. It's only two years. ”

Cai Erniang's tears fell, and she choked up and said, "We, where are we going to borrow our five taels of silver and a hundred catties of wheat!" Except for a few people in Yan Mansion, we don't deal with anyone, there was a young master Jin Zhen before, who is going to ...... now. ”

The words were too long and broke several times.

Cai Er then remembered that there were five taels of silver and a hundred catties of wheat.

yes, it's not a small amount, I have to borrow it there. The iron butler helped himself so much, how embarrassed to speak. Chef Zhu is a well-known fear of guilt, and he doesn't keep a single copper for himself when he earns money. That Cai's sister-in-law and Li's mother are all women, how can a man borrow money from a woman.

As for the father-in-law, the brother-in-law is counting on it.

But the eldest nephew got married, and the mother shared it again, what can I do?

He also squatted on the ground with a sad face.

Five taels of silver and a hundred catties of wheat have made many people like this, and they are still too poor.

Speaking of poverty, in the final analysis, it is due to this Lin Zhang's family. If it weren't for the ghostly guarding of the debt collector every month and plundering the Fengyin rations, according to the income of the three members of the family, five taels of silver, and a hundred catties of wheat should still be able to take it.

She slowly took the rag and carried it to the table, thinking about how to give five taels of silver and one hundred catties of wheat to her father and mother to prevent them from being pregnant.

After all, the silver she secretly hid herself, her father and mother didn't know. Gotta find a way to give them somehow.

Lunch is very simple, a plate of pickles and a few black flour buns, and drinking boiled water.

Daddy and mother have no appetite at all, Cai Er holds the steamed bun and the same oral sex wax, and the bitterness in his mouth is really unbearable.

Cai Erniang is even more handing over a mouthful of buns, and she can't swallow it.

Lin Shu took a sip of the water bowl and said, "Dad, mother." No matter what happens, son, you have to eat first. You don't have to worry too much about the silver, my daughter has to think of a way. ”

She knows very well that her father and mother must come out of this silver grain, unless she dies, people.

Hearing Lin Zhu say this, a glimmer of light flashed in the eyes of Cai Er Niangzi.

She really trusts her daughter.

Just now she was waiting for her daughter's words, and she felt that her daughter said that there was a way, and there was really a way.

Cai Er also seemed to be waiting for her daughter's words, and after listening to her, she let out a sigh of relief, quickly swallowed the bun in her mouth, and put the food in her mouth.

Early the next morning, Lin Shu went out neatly dressed and walked towards Tianmen Town.

Today, there is a market in the town, and people come and go to sell everything, and it is very lively.

She walked from the east to the west, and from the west to the east, before entering the Juxian Building.

The shopkeeper Qi happened to be sitting behind the counter, and when he saw her coming in, he hurriedly got up and beckoned: "Zhu'er, I haven't come for a while, I want to eat something, your Uncle Qi invites ......."

Lin Zhu smiled and leaned on the counter and said, "Uncle Qi, I'm welcome." I gave me these two snacks with white sugar filling, and my mother ate them cutely. ”

The shopkeeper of Qi smiled and picked up the paper with his own hands, took a few dim sum buns from the plate, wrapped them around the rope and put them on the counter.

said: "Zhu'er is quite filial."

Lin Zhu said a little proudly: "That is, my father and mother wish me as my own, and I naturally have to honor them." As the saying goes, the grace of water springs. By the way, Uncle Qi, I see that the lanterns outside your store are broken, my father's lanterns are good, I'll bring you a few, that kind of big red silk cloth. It's guaranteed to be much better than your old one. ”

The shopkeeper Qi smiled and said, "Zhu'er really has a heart, so please trouble your father." Do you think a tael of silver is enough? ”

Lin Zhu also smiled and said, "Uncle Qi, what kind of silver is not silver, how cheesy it is." Just as I thank Uncle Qi for taking care of me all these years. However, Master Yun said that as long as I want to eat pig's trotters, I can come and get them, and put them in his account. I don't eat pig's trotters, so Uncle Qi keeps an account and helps buy me a hundred catties of wheat

"This girl, her brain is spinning so fast, she can come up with this idea." The shopkeeper of Qi laughed, Shumo really told him that as long as Lin Zhu wanted to eat pig's trotters, he would record it in his account.

He laughed enough, and then asked, "But Zhu'er, what do you want a hundred catties of wheat for?" There is a shortage of food at home, do you want Uncle Qi to send some white noodles over, the wheat is troublesome, and you have to grind. “

Lin Zhu hurriedly said: "It's not that there is a shortage of food at home, it's that my cousin got married, and my grandmother asked my father to give out a hundred catties of wheat, and my father's money was taken away by my grandmother, where is the money to buy it." My father and mother were so worried that they couldn't eat, so I had to make this decision. Uncle Qi, don't laugh. ”

"So that's the case, this busy Uncle Qi has helped. Zhu'er, you go home and wait, and Uncle Qi will have someone send you wheat at noon. Just a hundred pounds of wheat? Nothing else? ”

The shopkeeper Qi's image of Lin Zhu is very good, and he sees that she often travels with Jin Shizi's worry-free son, Jin Zhen's son, and knows that she also has a bit of weight. It will be a little better for her, and it will definitely be good in the future.

Lin Zhu shook his head and said, "Don't need anything else, I have my own." In fact, our son-in-law used to reward the little girl with some silver, and the little girl was afraid that her father and mother would take it away from her grandmother honestly, so she secretly hid it herself, wanting to take it out when she needed it. But now I don't dare to take it, it's hard to say it from my father. Therefore, as long as Uncle Qi sends the wheat, the matter of silver will be easy to say. ”

The shopkeeper Qi looked at Lin Zhu in surprise, and kept saying, "Zhu'er,." I didn't expect you to have such thoughts at a young age, don't worry, after Uncle Qi sent someone to send the wheat, he would say that when the lanterns are brought, he will ask for a few more if they are good. ”

It is worthy of being a businessman, that is, it is smart.

Lin Zhu gave a thumbs up very imposingly and said, "Uncle Qi is really amazing. (To be continued......)
