57. Let's talk about it when you get married!
A dirty old man with a black and ugly face?
I have to say that Chunxing's description is very appropriate, and Zheng Xian'er knew who it was as soon as she heard it.
In fact, that person is not very ugly, but he has a bit of a fierce look on his face, which is difficult for people to like. As for the words "black" and "dirty", they had nothing to do with him before.
When did these two words become inseparable from him?
After he killed his woman with his own hands and sent his adopted son to be an apprentice to someone else!
Without a hard-working woman to serve him, and without a kind and foolish son to take care of him, of course he will be beaten back to his original form immediately and become a dirty old man who is disliked by everyone!
"Tell him to wait at the porter!" Zheng Xian'er commanded coldly.
Chun Xing hurriedly agreed, and Xiao Zhi asked beside her, "Could it be that the master over there is here?" β
Zheng Xian'er laughed "sigh": "What kind of master is he?" Do you really think you're the dowry girl he bought for me? This is why you are willing to come and support me for the faΓ§ade, otherwise with the two taels of silver he gave me at the beginning, I don't know if I can buy one that will breathe! He still wants others to praise him for loving his daughter, he dreams! β
Xiaozhi covered his mouth and smiled: "It's been so long, are you still angry?" Come on, I won't call him 'master' in the future, it's okay to call him 'old pick', right? β
"He's more than picking! A piece of old goods that has no heart! Zheng Xian'er scolded angrily and went straight back to Luotong Residence.
She didn't mean to delay time - her mother's father came to visit, and as a daughter, she couldn't just go out to see her casually, right?
You always have to change into bright clothes and wear a few decent pieces of jewelry to show that you haven't been wronged in your in-law's house, right?
Carpenter Zheng couldn't wait left or right at the gatehouse, so angry that he spat and stomped his feet, and wanted to grind the stools in the gatehouse.
After waiting for nearly an hour, I finally saw Zheng Xian'er dressed up as a bright person, supported by a small branch.
Carpenter Zheng's eyes lit up, and he was busy knocking the cigarette bag pot on the sole of his shoe, and stood up with a smile on his face.
But the smile disappeared in a flash, and he quickly sank his face again, narrowed his cloudy and yellow eyes and stared unkindly at the jade pendant shaking on Zheng Xian'er's cheeks: "Grandma Lou San is out now, and she has a good life with gold and silver!" If I hadn't come to see you, you'd have forgotten that you still have a father, right? β
Zheng Xian'er walked in the door and sat down on the only chair with a loud voice: "What are you doing here?" Can't open the pot at home again? β
The smile instantly returned to Carpenter Zheng's face. He smiled "hehe", rubbed his hands, and tried to bend down so that his eyes were level with Zheng Xian'er who was sitting: "If you really can't open the pot, I don't want to bother you." Now that you are the grandmother of a rich family, I don't want to be a father to embarrass you, do I? Daughter, we have to be considerate and considerate of each other, I have raised you for seventeen or eighteen years, and now you have meat to eat at Lou's house, so you can always score a mouthful of soup for your father to drink, right? β
Zheng Xian'er was so annoyed by him that she had a headache, and couldn't help but rub her sideburns: "How much do you want?" β
Carpenter Zheng hurriedly said: "It's not much, you just give me three thousand taels!" β
"Three thousand taels?!" Zheng Xian'er almost choked herself to death with a mouthful of saliva.
Three thousand taels, which is worth half a year's income from the upstairs family, this old thing really dares to speak!
Carpenter Zheng looked at his daughter's face and laughed curtly: "If you can't take it out, give me a thousand taels first...... The rest is owed first. β
"Owe? What do I owe you? Zheng Xian'er laughed angrily at him.
Carpenter Zheng was confident: "I'm your father!" The grace of birth and nurturing is greater than the sky, why don't you owe me? β
Zheng Xian'er smiled and looked at him coldly: "The grace of birth and cultivation is greater than the sky, I admit it." My mother conceived me for ten months and went through hardships, once she gave birth, she fought for most of her life and fell into the root of a disease; When I was a child, I didn't even have to eat bud rice batter, and I drank my mother's milk until I was three and a half years old; Walking, talking, and holding chopsticks were all taught by my mother little by little; I eat and dress with all the money my mother earned from selling embroidery...... My mother's kindness to me is indeed greater than the sky! As for you, tell me, where is your old man's 'kindness' to me? Am I crawling out of your belly? Did you earn a penny for me to spend? The old man next door at least fed me a bowl of pimple soup, you can't even catch up with the old man's nurturing grace to me, and you still have the face to say that I owe you ......"
Before she finished speaking, Carpenter Zheng was so angry that he trembled: "You...... You wicked girl! Something with a wolf's heart and a dog's lungs! You must know that the sky has eyes, and you should be thundered by the sky if you are disobedient and unfilial! β
Zheng Xian'er sneered and said disdainfully: "Coincidentally, it just so happens that I also believe that the sky has eyes and cause and effect are rewarded!" My mother served you like a slave all her life - raising your children, cooking and washing for you, sprinkling and sweeping the yard for you, beating you and scolding you, and making money to pay off your gambling debts - and then she was beaten to death by you! What does this mean? It shows that what my mother did was evil! If she did the right thing, how could God not reward her? If she did the right thing, how could God not avenge her? β
"You!" Carpenter Zheng was so angry that he even broke the pole of his cigarette pouch.
Zheng Xian'er continued unhurriedly: "Look at me again - I have been disrespectful to heaven and earth since I was a child, I have not been filial to my father or mother, I have made money and I have not given you flowers, and I have refused to help you raise your cheap son - what is the result? As a result, I became the young grandmother of the Lou family, wearing gold and silver to call slaves and maids, and my life should be more moisturized and more moisturized! Haven't you understood what good and evil look like in God's eyes? At this time, if I rush to be filial to you, that is really hurtful and harmful, and that is deserving of thunder! β
Carpenter Zheng couldn't say a word, he just beat his chest with his fist, obviously choking with anger.
Xiaozhi was a little worried, and leaned into Zheng Xian'er's ear and whispered, "There won't be a death, right?" β
Zheng Xian'er sneered: "Kill a fart!" He's going to pretend to be dead and chill me, and give him a piece of broken silver and he'll be cured of all diseases! β
As soon as she finished speaking, Carpenter Zheng really stopped beating his chest, just grabbed the two cigarette pouch poles and glared at her angrily.
Zheng Xian'er saw some miscellaneous items placed in a mess on the windowsill, so she casually touched a small file from it, and began to grind her fingernails with a creak.
It's boring.
Carpenter Zheng himself was born for half a day, and when he spoke again, his arrogance somehow lowered: "No matter what, I'm your father, you can't watch me starve to death, right?" β
Zheng Xian'er frowned, and she didn't bother to raise her head: "Ordinary people can't spend two taels of silver on food and clothing for a year, and the sixty taels you sold me for more than half a year were all spent?" Are you gambling again? β
Carpenter Zheng lowered his head and muttered something, Zheng Xian'er didn't hear it clearly, just looking at his expression, he knew that he had guessed correctly.
Over the years, she has long been accustomed to this person's temperament, and she really doesn't even bother to get angry: "Sure enough, dogs can't change eating!" At the beginning, I couldn't wait to chop my fingers and swear by curses, but it turned out to be all! Do you still have my mother desperately selling embroidery for you to fill the bottomless pit? β
Carpenter Zheng raised his head and said angrily: "That's not that you're useless!" If you learn your mother's embroidery skills, how can I be so angry! β
Zheng Xian'er has been listening to this sentence for more than ten years, and she doesn't care if she hears it again now.
If it weren't for this father who kept sucking blood, why would she pretend to be stupid and even sell embroidery incognito?
This father is a leech, and no amount of blood is enough for him to drink!
Zheng Xian'er stood up irritably: "When you sold me at the beginning, you said that the grace of birth and breeding was written off!" Now that you're asking me for money again, are you taking what you said earlier as a fart? β
"It used to be before," Carpenter Zheng simply didn't reason, "now it's now!" Now your father and I owe money and are being chased and beaten, if you don't pay it back for me, I will go to your chastity arch and kneel and cry! I want everyone in the whole county to know that you are unrighteous and unfilial, and you don't even recognize your father! Think about it yourself, if your reputation is bad, will the Lou family still want you? β
Zheng Xian'er called someone to call the little guy in the gatehouse in, and ordered in a cold voice: "This old man is a madman, let's get out!" β
When Carpenter Zheng saw that she was leaving, he immediately became anxious: "You stop for me!" β
Zheng Xian'er couldn't help but clench her fists.
If this person wasn't her father, she really wanted to punch him to death!
Zheng Carpenter pounced, pulled Zheng Xian'er's skirt with both hands, and wiped the old ash between his fingers: "You really refuse to give money, do you?" I tell you, don't regret it! I'm your father, even if I say you're raised by a bitch, some people believe me, and some people believe me when I say you broke your shoes with someone! You'd better not force me to break the net......"
Zheng Xian'er took a deep breath and turned around: "Xiaozhi, go and get a hundred taels of silver for him!" β
Without waiting for Xiaozhi to complain, Carpenter Zheng was not happy first: "One hundred taels? What about you sending Hanako? Give me a thousand taels! No one is missing! β
Zheng Xian'er couldn't help but raise her foot and kicked him on the shoulder fiercely: "I only have one hundred taels, if it's too little, get out!" If the fish dies and the net is broken, the fish dies and the net is broken, do you really think I'm afraid of you? β
Carpenter Zheng saw that she was angry, and immediately softened again: "Xian girl, your father and daughter must make trouble to the death?" Dad really can't come to you! Think about it, you have lived a good life in Lou's house for more than half a year, how did I cause you trouble before? This time, I owe more than 600 taels of gambling debts alone, and you give me 100 taels, it's not enough to stuff your teeth! Good girl, you can help your father, I promise you that you will never gamble again? After I go back, I will work hard, live a good life, and save money for your brother to marry a daughter-in-law......"
Zheng Xian'er finally knew where her cheekiness came from.
This old thing really interprets the word "shameless" to a certain level!
Gambling debts alone owe six hundred taels? How did he have the face to say that number? He doesn't think he has ten more daughters to sell, right?
"Girl?" Carpenter Zheng looked at his daughter's face cautiously.
Zheng Xian'er thought for a while, beckoned Xiaozhi over: "I don't believe a word of this old thing!" You immediately send someone to the gambling house to inquire about how much this old thing owes, and pay it back for him. β
"Grandma, this is clearly a bottomless pit! You paid him back this time, and he'll gamble next time! Xiaozhi was so angry that his face turned blue.
Zheng Xian'er sighed: "Who said it wasn't!" But what's the use of us being angry? Everyone knows he's my father! I can be shameless, but the Lou family can't afford to lose this person! β
Twig stood in place with her eyes glaring, refusing to move.
Zheng Xian'er smashed her two fists against each other a few times, and raised her head: "After paying off the gambling debt, give him an extra hundred taels of silver." Then hire a few thugs to find a place where no one is and beat him up - don't beat him to death, just make him unable to get out of bed for a year and a half! β
"That's a good idea!" Twig finally felt the stuffiness in his chest go away.
Zheng Xian'er turned to look at her father and sneered: "I don't think it's enough!" It is better to pull out his tongue, lest he talk nonsense outside! β
Although Carpenter Zheng didn't hear Zheng Xian'er's instructions, he could already see that her face was not good. Out of instinct, he immediately withdrew in fright, stood at the door and screamed: "You cheap breed wants to rebel? I'm your dad! If you dare to treat me badly, I will definitely not make you feel better! What do you think you can be a young grandmother? It's not your dad and I who did everything possible to ask for you! You're still a 'virgin', who are you bluffing? Others don't know, I don't know you yet? Your mother was a thief in the first place, and you were all the same thing with her......"
"Do as I tell you." Zheng Xian'er grabbed Xiaozhi's hand hard and made up her mind.
Twig opened her mouth and gestured to her tongue.
Zheng Xian'er closed her eyes and nodded heavily.
If the father is unkind, you can't blame the daughter for being unfilial.
A family with gold may not be able to afford a gambler. In contrast, it is much easier to raise a cripple.
Zheng Xian'er slowly walked in front of Carpenter Zheng and looked at him steadily: "I will pay you back the gambling debts, and I will also give you the silver." I'll also hire a servant to take care of your food, clothing, and daily life. From now on, you will be at home...... Let's live honestly! β
Zheng Carpenter only saw that Zheng Xian'er was frightened by him, and immediately showed a triumphant look when he heard this, and his waist straightened.
Zheng Xian'er didn't even want to say a word, and seeing that Xiaozhi had arranged according to her instructions, she found a secluded path alone and walked back slowly.
When something like this happens, it's inevitable to be in a bad mood. Rao is that she has always considered herself a wolf-hearted dog, and in the final analysis, she can't treat her own father as a stranger without pressure.
If the word "hiring someone to beat your own father" spreads, you will inevitably be scolded for disobedience and unfilial piety. This kind of crime will be beaten to death if it is sent to the yamen, so that the court will know that it is to intercept the corner of the drum tower in the county!
There are too many lice and they don't bite, and Zheng Xian'er finds that she is becoming more and more bold now.
However, this vicious and ruthless nature that the six relatives do not recognize is really in the same vein as his father!
Back at Luotongju, Mrs. Han immediately greeted her: "Grandma, just now the people from Shensiyuan came, saying that Miss Chen Si was making trouble again, and the people in the courtyard couldn't suppress her, and the second grandmother was so angry that she had a headache and was drinking medicine!" β
Zheng Xian'er frowned: "A yard of people can't even look at a madman?" Find a few people to tie it up, and a bowl of soothing soup will be fine? β
"That's what I said, but after all, ......" Mrs. Han stopped talking.
Zheng Xian'er sneered: "'After all' what? You know she's not really crazy, and she knows she's not really crazy! If she really has the heart to solve the problem, she still needs to suffer this sin now? She chose to be a madman herself, do you want me to come to the door and beg her to talk well? β
Lan Xiang followed, her face was a little unpleasant: "The second grandmother is still in confinement, and now the grandmother is in charge of the house, don't you care about such a big thing?" If this thing spreads outside, I don't know what to say about our family! β
Zheng Xian'er immediately continued: "Saying that everything in our family is a matter of the second room!" The only solution to this matter is to wait for the second son to take care of his body and make up for her a name, otherwise what else? This matter also came to me, can I marry her for the second son, or can I return the innocence to her for the second son? β
Lan Xiang and Mrs. Han didn't know how to refute, so Zheng Xian'er sat sullenly and sneered.
When she can't see it-where is Chen Jingzhen making trouble again? It is obvious that the Zhu family is playing tricks, trying to make her anxious about these bad things, so that his wife thinks that she has no housekeeping talent!
These three indiscriminate methods, don't be too obvious, okay?
Chun Xing came in from outside and said hurriedly: "Someone outside the gate claims to be the third young master of the Chen family, clamoring to come to see his sister-in-law, grandma, do you want to call him in?" β
Zheng Xian'er subconsciously stood up.
The third young master of the Chen family, could it be the same last night......
Didn't he just get beaten by Lou Que?
Zheng Xian'er instinctively felt that it was not good, and hurriedly said: "You go and tell Chen Sangongzi in person, just say that the woman in the back house of the Lou family can't meet with foreign men in the mansion, and neither can the brothers of the maiden family!" Chen Sangongzi wanted to see his sister and asked him to arrange for the carriage and horse servants in the house to pick up Miss Chen and go back to her parents' house, and she could live as long as she wanted. When our second son's body is well-healed, he will naturally go to Chen's house to pick her up in person! β
"But Miss Chen Si is not the second master's concubine now!" Chunxing felt that this was a bit inappropriate.
Zheng Xian'er disagreed: "Why don't you count?" Could it be that the Chen family has other arrangements for Miss Four's whereabouts? β
Chunxing thought about it, suddenly turned her worries into joy, and ran away.
Zheng Xian'er saw that she had understood, so she sat down in front of the embroidery frame with peace of mind.
She wasn't worried that Chen Sangongzi would be entangled - anyone could see that once Chen Jingzhen left the Lou family, no one would ever pick her up.
The Chen family would not be willing to take that risk.
Sure enough, Chun Xing didn't take long to run back, and said with a smile: "Grandma guessed right!" The third son of Chen listened to the words of the slave maid, pretended to say, 'Call the mother-in-law to invite you another day', and then ran away without looking back! I still think he loves his sister a lot, it turns out that he is also coaxing! β
Zheng Xian'er smiled nonchalantly, still looking down to fiddle with her embroidery.
Chun Xing watched from the side, and said with a smile after a while: "Speaking of which, that Miss Chen Si is really pitiful!" The second grandmother didn't want to care about her at all, and the second grandfather didn't care about her, so she was a young lady like a flower, but now she was tossed into a crazy woman! β
"She won't be crazy for long." Zheng Xian'er changed a color of silk thread and said lightly.
The news of Lou Que's departure from the mansion, some people should already know by now. If you don't adjust your strategy at this time, when will you wait?
Zheng Xian'er really didn't guess wrong about this matter.
That night, Chen Jingzhen wore a plain white dress, long hair and a shawl, and appeared in Luotongju like a fairy.
Zheng Xian'er was a little surprised, but her face was not obvious, she casually pulled a plain silk to cover the embroidery frame, and got up to greet her: "This is really strange, which gust of wind blew Miss Chen Si here?" β
Chen Jingzhen sat down and sneered: "I'm not dead yet, the third young grandmother is very disappointed, right?" β
The words "three young grandmothers" are almost squeezed out of between their teeth.
Zheng Xian'er waved her hand and pushed the twig out, bowing her head to drink tea.
Chen Jingzhen looked at the slippery desktop on his side, and blushed with anger: "The visitor is a guest, and you refuse to even give me a cup of tea?" β
Zheng Xian'er said unhurriedly: "I don't know Miss Chen Si's taste, I don't dare to serve tea rashly - my girl usually adds arsenic to pour tea for people, in case you only like Heding Red, then wouldn't I be bored?" β
Chen Jingzhen was so angry that his eyes were glazed, and his gentle image was gone.
Zheng Xian'er is very satisfied with this effect.
After sitting in silence for a while, Chen Jingzhen couldn't bear to cut to the chase first: "I heard that Tongjie is out, and it will take several months to come back?" β
Zheng Xian'er smiled silently.
Chen Jingzhen couldn't wait for her response, so he had to be cheeky and continued: "You don't have to be so hostile to me, I'm here to negotiate a deal with you." β
Zheng Xian'er lazily fiddled with her fingers: "Lou Que is not mine, I'm sorry I can't sell him to you." β
Chen Jingzhen immediately answered: "But you have a way to make him accept me!" β
Zheng Xian'er was glad that she didn't drink water at this time, otherwise she might have choked to death.
She really wanted to pry open the skull of this Miss Chen Si and see what was inside?
Chen Jingzhen saw Zheng Xian'er's disapproving face, and couldn't help but be anxious: "Think about it!" If Kiritai marries someone else, will he still be nice to you? Will his wife and concubine allow him to continue like this with you forever? You can't be like this for long! β
"So?" Zheng Xian'er sat up straight and looked at Chen Jingzhen's face full of anxiety with a look of pity.
That's right, it's the kind of compassion that looks at fools.
Chen Jingzhen stood up and said seriously: "I want you to convince Tongjie to marry me!" As long as I become a fifth young grandmother, I can turn a blind eye to your affairs! This matter is good for you, and there is no reason why you should not agree! β
"Fifth young grandmother?" Zheng Xian'er was a little crying and laughing, "Miss Chen Si, have you been stupid for drinking soothing soup these days?" β
Her ridicule was not disguised at all, and Chen Jingzhen was so angry that his face was red and his neck was thick: "Even you look down on me?" No one knows better than you that I didn't do it voluntarily! Kiritai is not such a shallow person, he will not look down on me because I have been with others! No matter how innocent I am, at least a few points cleaner than you, right? β
"So?" Zheng Xian'er chuckled.
Chen Jingzhen stared at her for a while, then gritted his teeth and added: "I must marry Tongjie, even if it is a side room, I will admit it!" You have to help if you don't help with this, otherwise you'll ...... Otherwise, when I get married, the first person to clean up will be you! Don't think I can't do anything about you, I have the means to make you die without a place to be buried! β
"Then let's wait until you get married!" Zheng Xian'er leaned back on the soft couch, not even willing to waste the strength of the sneer.
