Zhao Ji rushed to Yuezhou from Funiu Mountain, not alone, when he came to pick up his brother Zhao Xie that day, he was followed by four or five strong men, and Lin Zhaocai speculated in his heart that Zhao Ji still had an entourage around him.

Zhao Ji was much younger than Zhao Xie, and after hearing Lin Zhao's words, he was slightly stunned, and asked, "What does the little boy want people to do?" ”

"I'm going to the countryside to pick up my mother and take her to the city."

Lin Zhao took a deep breath and said: "My family lives in Donghu Town, the eldest mother of the family is very vicious, she can also instruct the tenants around her, first, it is not convenient for me to do anything to her, and secondly, I may not be able to win, so I want to borrow two people from Brother Zhao." ”

Speaking of this, Lin Zhao added: "Brother Zhao, don't worry, I understand the rules, I don't use people in vain, I borrow two people, and one person has the same money a day." ”

This price is much higher than the market price, according to the price of hiring thugs on the market, it is almost the same as giving thirty or forty yuan a day, but the quality of the people in Funiu Mountain is obviously higher, and it is not convenient for Lin Zhao to hire people directly, of course, it is more appropriate to use these "friends".

Zhao Ji smiled: "The little boy is the benefactor of the eldest brother, how can he collect the little boy's money?" In this case, I have nothing to do today, so I will take two people with the little boy and take the lady into the city. ”

"It couldn't be better."

Lin Zhao was overjoyed, and after practicing horse walking with Zhao Ji for an hour, he went to the carriage and horse shop to spend some money, hired a carriage, and brought Zhao Ji himself and his two entourages, and the group of four people quickly left the city and walked towards Donghu Town.

Donghu Town is not far from Yuezhou, about an hour or so, this town is already in sight, Lin Zhao, who is driving, let out a breath and walks towards the Lin family.

The Lin family has a big yard in Donghu Town, but Lin Zhao and his mother Lin Erniang live in a small yard next to the yard, it is still morning, Lin Zhao parked the carriage at the door of his small yard, then jumped out of the carriage, turned back to Zhao Ji and said: "Brother Zhao wait here, I'll pick up my mother out." ”

Zhao Ji hesitated for a moment and said, "That's okay, I won't go in to salute my wife, little boy be careful." ”

Lin Zhao nodded, walked to the door of his yard, hesitated slightly, and reached out and knocked on the courtyard door.

He has not been separated from Lin Erniang since he was born, but this time he went to the city and has not seen his mother for more than two months.

After knocking on the door, Lin Zhao stood quietly at the door and waited, and after a while, the wooden door of this small courtyard was opened, and Lin Erniang, who was dressed in coarse cloth or more, stood behind the door, and after seeing that it was her son, her originally slightly sad face immediately became overjoyed.

She reached out and took Lin Zhao's hand, her voice trembling slightly.

"Zhao'er, why are you back?"

When Lin Zhao first entered the city, she thought that Lin Zhao had gone to the city to study, but later the Zhang family came back from the city and became angry in front of Lin Erniang.

This sentence made Lin Erniang sad for a long time, and felt that it was her background that dragged down her son, and she cried almost every day.

Fortunately, Lin Zhao then sent her a letter back, explaining his situation in the city, and Lin Erniang was a little relieved.

Lin Zhao took his mother's hand, only to find that his mother's hands were cold, he looked up in the yard, and saw that in this small courtyard, which was not very big, there were twenty or thirty pieces of clothes hung, and in the wooden basin in the yard, there were still clothes that had not been washed.

Lin Zhao's mother and son have not had a very good time over the years, and the clothes of the mother and son together are not so much, not to mention that Lin Zhao is not at home, Lin Erniang's own clothes, it would be good to have four or five sets of clothes.

There is simply no way to have so many clothes.

Lin Zhao gritted his teeth and said in a low voice: "Ah Niang, the Zhang family bullied you, didn't they?" ”

Lin Erniang's somewhat pale face showed a gentle smile, and she comforted her son softly and said: "It's not bullying, it's just that my mother helps them wash their clothes, and my mother is idle at home......"

Lin Zhao snorted angrily, gritted his teeth and said, "Sooner or later, I want her to look good!" ”

After saying this, he looked up at his mother and said softly: "Ah Niang, I came back this time to pick up my mother into the city, and my son bought a house in the city, and from now on, Ah Niang will no longer have to be angry with the Zhang family." ”

Lin Erniang took her son's hand with suspicion on her face.

"Zhao'er, you've only been in the city for more than two months, how can you buy a house? Don't lie to A-Niang, A-Niang is doing well here......"

"The carriage is right outside the door."

Lin Zhao said in a deep voice: "My son has never deceived A-Niang in his life, is it true, A-Niang and I went into the city to take a look, and when I entered the city, my son will tell A-Niang the detailed process." ”

Lin Erniang turned her head to look at the wooden basin in the yard, and hesitated: "However, these clothes haven't been washed yet......"

Lin Zhao snorted, walked in front of the wooden basin, kicked it over directly, and scolded: "Wicked women deceive people too much," A-Niang doesn't need to pay attention to her, let's just leave.

He looked up at his mother, and his voice was serious: "Mother believes me or not?" ”

Lin Erniang looked at the wooden basin that had been turned over on the ground, sighed first, and then said, "That mother will go and pack up two clothes, and then go to the city with you to take a look at the situation." ”

At this time, she was unwilling to let her bring clothes, Lin Zhao could only nod and wait in the courtyard, and after about a pillar of incense, Lin Erniang walked out of the back room with a small burden on her back.

Lin Zhao reached out and took the burden from his mother's hand, carried it on his back, then reached out and took his mother's hand and walked to the door.

On the carriage at the door, Zhao Ji saw Lin Erniang coming out, and he also jumped down from the carriage and saluted Lin Erniang: "Zhao Ji has seen Mrs. ”

Lin Zhao can be regarded as the life-saving benefactor of his eldest brother Zhao Xie, so the attitude towards Lin Zhao has always been very good in the upper and lower parts of Funiu Mountain.

For Lin Zhao's mother, he naturally had to be polite.

Lin Erniang looked at Zhao Ji with some doubts, and Lin Zhao on the side said softly: "Ah Niang, this is my son's friend, my son was afraid that the evil woman would not allow Ah Niang to leave, so he brought two people over to prevent accidents." ”

As he spoke, he said softly, "Mother, get in the car." ”

Lin Erniang nodded, and got into the carriage with Lin Zhao's support, and after getting into the car, she didn't forget to turn around and tell her son.

"Zhao'er, lock the door to the back room."

The clothes in the courtyard are all Zhang's mother and son, and they may have to come to get the clothes, so Lin Erniang only asked Lin Zhao to lock the door of the inner room.

Lin Zhao quickly ran into the house, locked the door, and got into the carriage, and said to Zhao Ji, who was driving: "Brother Zhao, go quickly, don't alarm that evil woman, otherwise there will be a lot of trouble." ”

At this time, he had not yet separated from the Lin family in Donghu Town, and the shrew of the Zhang family was still a big trouble for him.

Zhao Ji nodded, and immediately turned his head, preparing to drive to Yuezhou.

As soon as the carriage turned around, Lin Zhao's mother and son, who were sitting in the carriage, heard a familiar and disgusting voice.

"I also said that I was ice clear and jade, and I finally couldn't hold it anymore, right?"

Zhang's hands pinched his waist and stood not far from the carriage with a sharp voice, yin and yang weird.

"No, there are wild men coming to the house to pick up people!"

The mother and son in the carriage frowned at the same time.
