Chapter Twenty-Three: Lust for Pleasure and Think of Good Things

After gobbling up the meal, Zhou Kui's uncle and nephew habitually stroked his round belly with his hands and burped freely, but it was still as if he was in a dream.

Ding Xiaonu was too lazy to take care of them, and while cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, she couldn't help but raise her voice and remind: "I dreamed of moving into a big mansion, and this is moving into a big mansion, can your uncle and nephew stay like this?" ”

Zhou Kui was stunned when he heard this, and finally returned to reality after a while, seeing Zhou Duo's brothers lazily falling to the ground and drowsy, he stepped forward and kicked everyone, and complained: "They have all become the princess's brothers, and they are still so unsophisticated?" No matter how smooth and clean this ground is, it is still the ground after all, so how can you sleep here? ”

After his fall, Brother Zhou Duo thought about it, and he was embarrassed, but he didn't know what to do for a while.

Zhou Kui scolded with a smile: "I haven't seen anything in the world, don't sleep anymore, wake up, and go with my uncle to see our new home." As he spoke, he took the lead in getting up.

Brother Zhou Duo was very angry and reluctant in his heart, but the excitement that came up immediately after returning to reality still made them get up and follow.

It is a large four-hall mansion, not only is the house spacious, but also the application of each room is complete and orderly. There is no shortage of rockery pavilions, small bridges and flowing water, flowers, birds, fish and insects, etc., and the whole yard seems to come alive. In other words, walking in it, you will never feel any difference from being in a painting.

Zhou Kui's uncle and nephew were sightseeing, and they wandered around for most of the day before they finally finished reading. Zhou Duo still asked in disbelief: "Uncle, brothers, please tell me that this place will really be our home in the future?" ”

Zhou Jian and the others obviously thought the same way, and turned to look at Zhou Kui together. Zhou Kui laughed when he saw them like this. After laughing, he corrected: "What do you mean in the future, now, from now on, no, to be precise, it should be from yesterday, this is already our home." ”

After speaking, seeing that the Zhou Duo brothers were just stunned, Zhou Kui was still unsatisfied, and said: "Aren't you happy to live in this place like a painting?" ”

The Zhou Duo brothers did not cheer as he expected and jumped up to answer "happy", Zhou Kui couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, and looked at them strangely.

Zhou Jing looked around at Zhou Duo and the others, cleared his throat and said: "The place is a good place, but it's so big, don't say anything else, just cleaning, even if our brothers take turns, it can exhaust people to death." ”

Zhou Jian continued: "There is also care, we can't take care of it, once someone destroys it, it will always be unsightly, wouldn't it be idle in vain?"

Zhou Duo and the others followed suit.

"Well, that's not unreasonable." Zhou Kui thought secretly, and couldn't help but make a difficulty, but he was afraid that they would see that he would underestimate himself and lose control, so he had an idea after a little groaning, and immediately said with a disdainful face: "Dead eyes, really dead eyes, we not only have this house now, but also such a large amount of dowry." ”

Zhou Jian hesitated and said, "What do you mean by ......?"

Zhou Kui said smugly: "The meaning is very clear, spend money to hire people to do it, don't say the capital, even in our Suzhou, don't rich people do this?" Hmph, is it possible that we still have to guard such a large bride price, starve and suffer hardship? Well, you brothers, go your separate ways and do a good job. ”

When Brother Zhou Duo heard this, he turned around and did it eagerly. The Zhou Duo brothers are lazy and lazy, and they are useless in their livelihood, and their only way of pleasure is deeply inherited by Zhou Kui, and they know how to do it. In less than seven days, the home's maids, garden technicians, sweepers, and nursing kitchens were all in place.

Zhou Kui saw it, saw that all of them were thoughtful and meticulous, and he was satisfied, and said happily: "Okay, good, the good days of our uncle and nephew have arrived, and the children are not happy to have fun, what are you waiting for?" ”

After speaking, seeing Zhou Duo's thoughtful look, he asked curiously: "If Duo'er is still dissatisfied, just tell your uncle, and your uncle will try his best to help you do it." ”

Zhou Duo pondered: "Following my uncle, although it has gone through some twists and turns, but in the end it is like falling into heaven and enjoying himself to the fullest, where does Duo'er dare to be dissatisfied anymore?" Duo'er is worried that our brothers will grow up unconsciously, and we will gradually have to marry wives and have children, and the expenses of the family will increase dramatically......"

Saying that, he unconsciously went to see Zhou Kui and the brothers, but saw that they were all listening carefully, especially Zhou Kui, staring at his face of encouragement, paused, and continued: "People have no long-term worries, Duo'er has thought about it carefully, what the little aunt said is very true, no matter how much this bride price is, it is dead money, if there is no income, there will be a time to spend it after all." ”

During these days, Zhou Kui calmed down, and thought about it a lot, but in the end he was helpless, so he just took it one day at a time. Zhou Duo also guessed him before mentioning it. Zhou Kui didn't know, and praised sincerely: "A good person has no long-term worries, it seems that Duo'er has grown up and knows how to think about things." ”

Zanbi, turned to Zhou Jian and the others, and said: "You are also too old, especially Zhou Jian and Zhou Jing, you must learn more from your eldest brother, and slowly learn to share some worries for your father." ”

Zhou Duo looked up at his brothers unnaturally, because the idea was first proposed by Zhou Jian and Zhou Jing, and then discussed by the brothers. The brothers understood what he meant, and nodded their heads busily.

Seeing this, Zhou Kui nodded with satisfaction, then turned to Zhou Duo and said: "Seeing that Duo'er looks confident, it should have been carefully considered, and there must be a countermeasure, so it is better to talk about it in detail, and our uncle and nephew will refer to it in detail." ”

Zhou Duo was no longer polite, and said: "Our brother went out to inquire, the most profitable business now is to be an official, as long as you can be an official, the silver will flow in an uproar, even if the expenses in the future are large, what are we afraid of?"

Of course, the official has to spend money to buy it, but now we have become relatives of the emperor, although we can't see the emperor, but the prince is the son-in-law of our family, and we can always see it. What is a prince? The emperor's younger brother. People say that as long as he is willing to help us, he can help us.

Pick a good day, we might as well go and meet, even if he can't help us get a bigger one, even if he gets a small one to meddle in the street. People say that as long as you are an official, it is better than selling hookahs. “

Speaking of this, he took a drink from the water cup and continued: "Take a step back and say, even if he can't get us an official errand, what is it for a prince of his size to help us with a little silver." This is different from that, but the money is not hot to put in your hand.

As long as we don't throw away the basket, we won't lose anything, so why don't we do it? ”

Zhou Kui suddenly patted the table in front of him, and then said, "Yes, why not?" In my opinion, let's go today, get the money as soon as possible, and earn some interest. ”

Zhou Jing suddenly said: "No, never." ”

Zhou Kui said disappreciably: "Why? ”

Zhou Jing said: "Although he is the son-in-law of our family, he is a prince after all, and he speaks like an ordinary person, we have to plan in advance, so as not to be sent away by a few words from him, wouldn't we lose a great opportunity in vain?" ”

Zhou Kui thought about it and said, "In this case, our uncle and nephew will plan well." ”

When Zhou Duo and the others heard this, they immediately became gossipy. From what you say at the beginning, to what to say when it happens, to what to do in case of failure, and what the details are, Dengshi put forward countless plans. Unfortunately, they didn't study those etiquettes seriously, and they didn't know how to assume them, so they overturned them one by one. After going back and forth for more than a month, Zhou Kui's rhetoric was finally formed.

"Fuck." Thinking of this, Zhou Kui cursed secretly, and disappointment, grievance, and anger all came up together, making him irritable.

In the past, at this time, he had to beat and scold Ding Xiaonu or throw things around. Since he thought that Zhou Xiaoniang was regarded as a little daughter-in-law by Chen Rending, he didn't dare to be rough with Ding Xiaonu anymore, and only threw things around. Nowadays, things at home are getting more and more expensive, and I am reluctant to fall again.

In this way, the irritability could not be calmed down, and Zhou Kui had to go to the tavern instead, find a secluded corner location, and drink alone, so he had to drink himself down.

Zhou Kui went to the tavern differently, and if he chose this one, he would not make his choice.
