In the Zhao family's two-bedroom small house, listening to Wang Fulai's detailed report, Zhang's was also trembling with anger: "Tiger poison still doesn't eat children, that Niu family is so cruel and ruthless to the eldest grandson of his relatives, he didn't ask for a doctor when he injured someone, we invited a doctor, and she still stared at the money for those two medicines, which is worse than livestock!" ”

Zhao Wei comforted her and said: "Grandmother, don't be angry first, no matter what the Niu family is, Zhao Ze will naturally not be wronged now that he has your protection." For now, it is serious to let Zhao Ze recover from his injuries first. If he is worried about his livelihood in the future, it is a big deal to sue him first, and he will ask Brother Qixuan to arrange an errand for him in the future. As for Niu's, he is just a clown jumping off the beam. She now has some silver in her hand, and she thinks that Zhizhu is in her hands, so she is so unscrupulous. When she spends all the money in her hand in the future and has to rely on Zhao Ze to feed, she will know that she will be two. "Of course, if at that time, Zhao Ze still has to obey this grandmother in everything, then the people in their second room will not be nosy and give and demand.

Zhang thought about it: "Okay, let Brother Ze'er raise it first." Then he began to worry again: "Even if we invite a doctor and give him silver to grab medicine and buy delicious tonic for his body, I am afraid that the Niu family will take away the silver, there is no medicine to eat, and the body cannot be replenished, it will be in vain." It's better for us to simply take the person back to live for a few days, and then let him go back when Ze Ge'er's injury is healed. ”

Zhao Xiu, who had been silent and didn't speak, spoke: "Just take the people back, so that people outside will know, do you think that our family wants to think of Zhao Ze?" If the grandmother is not worried about Niu's, she can ask someone to rent another house near their house. Move Zhao Ze over to recuperate, and then let him bring an old servant to wait, and we can provide the medicine money and daily expenses. Until Zhao Ze recovered from his injury. If you are worried that the Niu clan will come to harass you, you will send one more person to guard the door. In this way, Zhao Ze can recuperate well, and when people outside ask, we can also say that we can't bear it and won't let people misunderstand. ”

Zhang hesitated: "That's fine." Wang Fulai, you go and ask, near Zhang Shanjia Hutong. Is there a clean house for rent? Rent two rooms and clean up, so let's move Zhao Ze over. ”

Wang Fulai took the order and left. Zhang was angry, so he was about to complain in front of the dead husband's spirit, Zhao Xiu gave his brother a look, and walked to the corner of the verandah in the courtyard.

Zhao Wei followed. Lowered his voice and asked, "What does my sister have to say to me?" ”

Zhao Xiu whispered: "Brother." Looking at my grandmother's appearance, it seems that Zhao Ze is getting more and more pitiful. If the Niu family tosses Zhao Ze like this, sooner or later my grandmother will think again and ask Zhao Ze to come to our house. ”

Zhao Wei sighed: "He is indeed pitiful, who called his biological mother a sin?" The Niu family also loved this eldest grandson very much in the past, but the Jiang family instructed his subordinates to kill people in order to conceal the secret of the eldest son, causing Zhao Jiong to fall into the well and kill many people, so that he lost his title. Niu's heart believes that it is his daughter-in-law who has affected the whole family. has a grudge against her, and also regards Zhao Ze as a bane. From then on, he hated him deeply, but forgot that the reason why their husband and wife lost their titles, and the murder committed by their husbands was the biggest reason.

Zhao Xiu said: "I know that he is still young, and it is his parents who do the evil, not himself, so he has been affected by his parents, and he has to make his grandmother toss, which is really pitiful." But our family is a bitter master, and if I want to sympathize with him, I will first feel that I am uncomfortable, let alone accept him to my home? The problem is that my grandmother is feeling more and more sorry for him now, and if she really plans to take him into the house, will she be upset if I object? ”

Zhao Wei smiled: "That's too much." No matter how sorry my grandmother feels in her heart, she will not regard him as heavier than our brothers and sisters. I don't want him to live in the house, so I have to pay for a house and support him all the time. ”

Zhao Xiu disagreed: "It's good that things are really so easy." I see that Niu's is so thick-skinned, and Zhao Xiang is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and when Zhao Yan brings his biological mother back, maybe there will be a moth, how can Zhao Ze be allowed to enjoy happiness alone? If Zhao Ze can cut off the relationship with this family, I can still tolerate him in front of my grandfather and grandmother. He has such a long list of troubles behind him now, even if I pity him, I don't intend to cause trouble. There are more people in the world who are more pitiful than him, even in our Zhao clan, there are young children who are poor and have no parents and are honest and willing to be motivated, aren't they more worthy of my help? ”

Zhao Wei listened and thought thoughtfully.

Wang Fulai rented a house and soon rented it, just west of Zhang Shanjia Hutong, less than 100 feet away from the courtyard where Zhao Ze lives now. The family lives in a two-entry courtyard, the second one for the family, and the one in front of it is used for rent, and it happens to be complete with bedrooms, kitchens, and water rooms. Wang Fulai directly paid the rent for three months, and then left two people to clean up, and then came back to resume his life.

Zhao Wei decided to go with him to pick up Zhao Ze. Zhao Xiu felt strange: "What is my brother going to do?" Zhao Wei smiled and said: "I come forward with the marquis of Jiannan, who dares not to give face?" If the Niu clan stops her, I have my own way to deal with her. Zhao Xiu still felt strange, but the Zhang family agreed: "Go ahead, if the Niu family dares to mess around and use the identity of an elder to suppress you, you can say that this is what I mean." ”

If you really want to talk about the identity of the elders, although the Niu family is Zhao Wei's aunt, the Zhang family is the Niu family's mother-in-law, and she can be crushed to death in terms of etiquette. Therefore, Zhao Wei smiled when he heard it: "Grandmother, don't worry, grandchildren know what to do." ”

Zhao Wei took Wang Fulai and others to pick up Zhao Ze and wanted to send him to a nearby rented house to recuperate, but the Niu family really heard the news and came to stop him: "Where are you going to carry my grandson?!" ”

Zhao Wei didn't speak, just looked at her calmly, with a hint of arrogance between his eyebrows. Wang Fulai stepped forward and said, "Our little marquis heard that your grandson was injured, so he kindly sent him to a quiet place to recuperate, and even covered the medical expenses." This is the grace of our little marquis to your grandson, you should get out of the way. ”

Niu Shi was stimulated by Zhao Wei's eyes, and immediately said, "I don't allow it!" If he wants to heal his wounds, he will take care of him at home, and you cannot carry him away. ”

Zhao Wei didn't take her seriously at all, but just lightly instructed Wang Fulai: "Don't talk nonsense with senseless people, let's go." ”

Wang Fulai responded. Turning around and waving his hand to signal the people to follow, Zhao Ze, who was lying on the stretcher, was full of embarrassment, he knew that Zhao Wei was trying to save him. But if he ignores his grandmother and just walks away, he can't do it. He was about to speak, but his sleeves were pulled, and when he looked up, he saw an old man with blood scars on his face. Lao Zhangtou failed to keep the few taels of silver, although the other old slaves refused to listen to Niu's orders and tied him up. But Niu still paid two idlers from the street outside and beat him up. It's all for him, the little master. Zhao Ze looked at the old man's face, and many words came to the side of his throat. I swallowed it again.

How could the Niu clan let people go? She stopped in front of the door and shouted, "What are you doing here?" In broad daylight, do you want to rob the people's men? Believe it or not, I'm going to report to the official?! ”

Zhao Wei couldn't help laughing when he heard this, and even Wang Fulai and other subordinates were secretly covering their mouths. Zhao Ze was also red-faced, thinking to himself why did his grandmother use such a word?

Zhao Wei finished laughing. Then he crossed his arms and looked at Niu. said unhurriedly: "Then you go to report to the official, just go and report, I'll wait for the official here." ”

Niu's was stunned, she remembered that Zhao Wei attacked the position of Marquis of Jiannan, and her identity was high, if she really reported to the official, with her current status, the government would definitely help Zhao Wei. I'm afraid that she will suffer again. As soon as she gritted her teeth, she pointed to Zhao Wei's nose and said, "You don't use your status to pressure me." In terms of seniority, in terms of age, I am your elder! You don't know how to be respectful at a young age, and you don't have a good reputation when you spread it! ”

Zhao Wei didn't take her words seriously at all: "If Mrs. Zhao has to say that she is my elder, then I will also say it, I took Zhao Ze and acted on the orders of my grandmother, how are you doing?" ”

Niu was suffocated again. She wanted to use her aunt's identity to suppress Zhao Wei, and Zhao Wei used Zhang's mother-in-law to suppress her.

Zhao Wei waved his hand, Wang Fulai directly led someone to squeeze the Niu family away, carried Zhao Ze out, and several old servants also followed, leaving only one, who was originally a cook, looked left and right, and decided to stay. The house rented by the Hou Mansion is naturally better than here, and the money is also more generous, and it can be less angry. But sooner or later, the little master will come back to this house, and he will offend the old lady and the eldest girl so badly that it will not do them any good to these old slaves in the future. The old cook decided to stay, lest the people in the courtyard have no one to cook.

Niu watched his grandson leave, but he didn't stop it, and he couldn't stop it, so he could only say hatefully: "What is this? If it's for healing, it's the same at home! I carried people away for no reason, and the house really looks up to my grandson! Didn't you say that you wouldn't recognize their brothers and sisters? Now it's back-to-the-lips! ”

"Mrs. Zhao is too worried." Zhao Wei's title to her is to be more rusty and unfamiliar, "My grandmother is a kind and kind person, and when I meet a child from a bad family, I can't help but feel sorry for her. made Sun suffer from the family's mistreatment, and the grandmother couldn't bear it, so she thought about helping him more, where is the meaning of recognizing relatives? Even if my grandmother had a heart, I couldn't say yes. The son of a rebel, the identity is too taboo. He flicked his sleeve casually, "Grandmother, she is happy, she is happy, she should have a kitten and a puppy, but there is no need to mention it." ”

Kittens and puppies? Niu's almost choked on saliva, could it be that she overestimated her grandson's status in Zhang's mind?

After thinking about it, she felt that Zhao Wei might just be bluffing, so she sneered: "I don't care if Brother Ze is a cat or a dog in your house, he wants to live and support the family, otherwise let this big family drink the northwest wind?" How can you take possession of your grandmother just because she is happy? If you have to ask him to have fun in front of him, we should make up for it a little bit for our family. ”

Zhao Wei raised his eyebrows: "Did Mrs. Zhao misunderstand something?" Zhao Ze's dilapidated body, how to support his family? The doctor I invited earlier didn't say much in front of Zhao Ze, but he didn't have to be taboo with us. He said clearly, Zhao Ze's vitality is greatly damaged, unless from now on, good medicine, good soup, good food and good vegetables are raised, do nothing, and don't worry about anything, then there can still be thirty or forty years of life, otherwise, it is still unknown whether he can live past the age of twenty. It is impossible for him to do any more hard work to support his family now. If your grandmother asked him for medical treatment and medicine, she still saved his life, and if you want to compensate him, it should be your family who compensates your grandmother. ”

"What?!" Niu Shi screamed, which was really unexpected, but thinking that Zhao Ze had a bad complexion for days, it was obvious that she was not beating hard, just looking at the blurred flesh and blood, but his injuries were not healed for a long time, and it was clearly a relationship that his body was too weak. In this way, he may really be short-lived, he can't be tired, and he has to be fed with medicine, won't he become a drag on the whole family?

Just when her expression was unpredictable, Zhao Wei turned around and was about to leave, Niu Shi was quickly surprised, and stopped him again: "You can't go!" Since he is dying, ought you not give us some silver? Otherwise, he will die, and our whole family will have to drink the northwest wind!" Your little second room has such a big piece of furniture, but you don't care about our life or death, it's too much, right? ”

Zhao Wei felt funny: "Our family does have a lot of furniture now, but what does that have to do with you?" Not to mention that the two houses have long been separated, and later there was a matter of you leaving the family, and the mansions, granges, properties, and property that our family has now obtained are all given by the Emperor Daxing and the current saints, or they are specified by me. Why should I give you a share of my furniture? ”

Yes, the property of the Jiannan Hou Mansion has long been returned to the imperial court, and now what the Hou Mansion has is given back later, but even if it is "returned", the owner of the thing has already changed his name, and it has nothing to do with the people of the side branch who have long been separated, not to mention that it is still out of the clan?

Looking at Niu's disappointed and annoyed appearance, Zhao Wei sneered: "Mrs. Zhao, I advise you to fight less about other people's money, and live in peace." Don't expect to use this to ruin the reputation of our Jiannanhou Mansion outside, as long as our family still has Zhao Ze and one of them, no one can accuse us of ignoring the bloodline. And whether you and your other grandchildren will starve to death or not, it is none of our business. If others want to blame, they can only blame Zhao Ze for failing to support his family, which has nothing to do with us. ”

Zhao Wei left, and at some point outside the door began to gather in a circle to watch the excitement, all pointing at the Niu family, talking about how unkind she was, how cruel and ruthless she was to her eldest grandson, and even outsiders couldn't see it. Niu Shi saw it as an eyesore, and ordered loudly: "Close the door!" Then a girl hurriedly closed the door. Niu looked back and saw that the house was empty, and even a few old slaves only ran away, and he was so angry that his liver hurt.

Zhao Xiang also ran to complain to her: "Grandmother, Zhao Man's girl packed up two changes of clothes and ran away!" She said that the eldest brother was followed by all the old men, and none of them were careful, she was not at ease, and she wanted to go to serve the sick, so she ran away! It's a shame that she treats her eldest brother as an enemy who kills her brother all day long, and she wants him to die, but now she runs away to wait for people, which is really hateful! ”

Niu's didn't want to listen to her complaint, she thought back to what Zhao Wei said, and only felt that it was impossible to get the silver from the people in the second room just according to her original thoughts. Zhao Wei himself is still a big burden, useless at all, and has to rely on others to take care of him. What is such a grandson left to do?

What's even more worrying is that she has already spent a lot of money in her hand, and if she really can't get the money, she will soon have to sit on the mountain. She had to figure out a way. The second room of the Zhao family is a big piece of fat meat, if she doesn't bite it, how can she be willing?

"Grandmother?" Zhao Xiang looked at her with some grievances, "Did you hear me?" ”

Niu didn't hear it, she ordered her granddaughter directly: "Hurry up and change your clothes and go out with me." ”

Zhao Xiang was puzzled: "Where are you going?" It's almost time to make dinner. ”

"You'll find out if you come along." Niu snorted coldly, "There are always people in the capital who can deal with Zhao Wei, I must knock a lot of money in the second room before I am willing!" ”

They quickly dressed up, walked out of the small courtyard, and walked in the direction of the mouth of the alley, and the inkwell quietly followed behind them.

An hour later, he hurried back to the palace and reported what he had found to the prince Gao Zhen. Gao Zhen pondered for a moment, asked Yanyu to give him a reward, and let him go down.

Gao Zhen picked up the letter written by Zhao Xiu again, read it twice, and already had an idea in his heart. He called Yanyu: "Prepare clothes for me, I will enter the palace tomorrow." (To be continued......)
