Chapter 15: Where to begin

Guan Zhuofan saw that Ming's stopped talking, so he returned to business and said eloquently: "You put away this money." If you don't think about yourself, you have to think about your children, it looks like the wax moon, the sky is cold, how can you live? Firewood or something at home, don't get it yourself, go to the market and have someone send it, a house or something, and quickly find someone to repair it and make up for it. I'll talk about it later, since we've done everything, I don't want you to end up in the end. ”

Ming carefully tasted the meaning of his words, stood up silently, took a handkerchief bag, wrapped the loose silver on the cabinet, and just touched the silver ticket with his fingers, but as if it had been stung, he took it back.

"This ...... This...... I can't ask for it! Ming was frightened by this big ticket and said in horror. Then remembering what Guan Zhuofan had just said, he was afraid that he would attack again, so he glanced at him timidly, lowered his voice, and said pleadingly: "Zhuofan, I didn't expect you to be so rich now...... The sister-in-law of the Guan family supports the family alone, and she is also very miserable, your second brother often comes to bully her, since you have money, you should use it to help her. You have to save the rest of the money, and there will be a lot of expenses for marrying a daughter-in-law in the future. I have here all this scattered silver, which is enough to spend ......."

Guan Zhuofan listened to her chatter, he was moved and funny, and said in his heart how the Ming family and the Bai family are the same, and he is always worried about his marriage to his daughter-in-law. shook his head and said with a wooden face: "I have my own score for marrying a daughter-in-law, so you don't have to worry about it." You put the money away first, I have something to say. ”

Ming didn't dare to argue anymore, so he took the silver ticket tremblingly, stuffed it into a handkerchief bag and wrapped it, holding this "huge sum" of money, a little at a loss, looking around, not knowing where to hide.

Guan Zhuofan smiled secretly in his heart, stretched out his hand to hold her, sat side by side with himself, hugged her with one hand, took the handkerchief bag with the other, and laughed in a low voice: "I'll put it in your clothes for you and hide it with meat, okay?" ”

Seeing that he was teasing him again, Ming's face turned red and he took a sip lightly.

Guan Zhuofan smiled, casually stuffed the handkerchief under the pillow, took out the pocket watch from the purse, opened it with a ding, took a look, and said to himself: "It's half past four." ”

This pocket watch was bought by him from a second-hand foreign goods store in the antique street, although it is slightly old, it is still extremely accurate. Ming had never seen such a rare thing, staring at the shiny silver watch body, his eyes were straight, and he asked in a low voice, "How can it be called half past four?" ”

"It's Shen Zheng's second moment." Guan Zhuofan pointed to the hands and scales on the dial and explained to her. Looking at her look of envy, I couldn't help but be secretly complacent, thinking that I should have made her situation clear to her, and she might as well say that it was bigger, so that she could get this money with peace of mind. So I briefly told her about my promotion and fortune in the past few months, and as for things like the 10,000 taels of silver tickets given by King Gong, I naturally skipped it.

"We are now the thousand president of the sixth grade, and after a month, two or three hundred silver is entered, which is a normal thing!" Guan Zhuofan casually brawned, "Lord Sheng Baosheng, I call him the fourth uncle." In his house, I have to go every once in a while, just like my own home. ”

Ming nodded again and again, convinced. At that time, everyone thought that the corruption and bribery of officials was the same as getting a salary, which was a matter of course, and that men could earn money outside, which was their ability, and there was no moral anxiety. Ming's really did as Guan Zhuofan imagined, completely calmed down, and said, "You should be hungry, right?" He got up and walked to the outhouse, and went out with his son in his arms. After a while, he turned back, closed the door, smiled at Guan Zhuofan who came out, and said, "I sent Xiaohu to Aunt Huang's house next door, let him play there for an hour, and then I will make you food." ”

Guan Zhuofan looked at the Ming family by the stove, a little confused. At half past four, it's still early, and if you talk about cooking, you can cook, so why send Xiaohu away? Thinking like this, he suddenly realized, walked behind Ming's back, grabbed her with both arms, and hugged her horizontally. Ming screamed softly, buried his head in Guan Zhuofan's arms, and let him carry himself into the back room.

After a while, the bed in the back room began to creak......

When Guan Zhuofan left Zhoudianfang, it was already past eight o'clock in the evening. Ming sent him out of the door, looked down at his toes, and asked faintly, "Are you...... Will it come back in the future? ”

"As long as I come back from Rehe, I will definitely come to see you and Xiaohu," Guan Zhuofan said gently, "It's still the same sentence, I will never let you end up." ”

I made up my mind, but I didn't have a viable idea in my mind. As he walked, he pondered, the cold air around him hit, and it was even darker in the distance, and he couldn't help but shrink back, thinking that it was Ma Eqi's ghost who found him, so what? Thinking of this, he shivered, and hurriedly prayed in his heart: "Brother Ma, you have become a ghost, if the heroic spirit does not disperse, you should know that my little brother and I are just a person who has crossed over." I don't know you, and you don't know me, the things that deceived my brother and sister-in-law in the past can't be counted on my head, it's all Guan San's fault. Most of him is also a soul now, if you want to find him, just look for him, you are all souls, and it is easier to find him. ”

After chanting, I felt that I still couldn't justify myself, so I thought about it and continued to pray: "As for today's business...... Your daughter-in-law is now a widow, she has the freedom to fall in love, Brother Ma, you should let go, in the future, your son Xiaohu, I will take good care of him, so that he will not be bullied...... That's all I can do, so please go with peace of mind. ”

Back at home in Shoubi Hutong, Bai and Tubo had not slept yet, they were still tidying up their things, and in the hall and yard, there were some packing boxes and cages. The moving work has been completed for the most part, and in two or three days, it will be completed.

Guan Zhuofan didn't stay in the courtyard, and hurriedly said hello to the Bai family, saying that he had gone to see the Ming family, and went back to his room. Seeing that he was a little depressed, Bai Shi paid attention to him a few times, but didn't say anything, just told Xiaofu to go to the kitchen and put a bowl of lotus seed porridge stewed on the fire and send it to the young master's room.

Guan Zhuofan didn't touch the bowl of porridge, lying on the kang, thinking about his own thoughts. Today's Zhoudianfang line is really incredible, and he has an extra picture for no reason, although it is a beautiful thing, it is one more clue. And how can I take care of orphans and widows, and I haven't thought of a practical way, I want to do big things by myself, and it is not a good sign to be entangled in the love of these children all day long.

Just thinking about it, I suddenly realized: I shouldn't have a tendency to love my sister-in-law, right? This thought startled him, Huo Di sat up, and counted it seriously.

Bai is a sister-in-law, and she is also a person who is willing to get what she wants. Zhuoren's daughter-in-law is the second sister-in-law, and last time because of the Hechun wine, she made herself happy. Ming is Lao Ma's daughter-in-law, and she is also her sister-in-law, and today is a few degrees of spring breeze. Co-authored all sisters-in-law, can't escape their own poisonous hands? Where does this begin?

Thinking back to before I crossed over,,It doesn't seem to have this problem.,Although I like women.,There are few Lori.,It's true that there are more royal sister types.,That's at most a royal sister control.,Why hasn't it reached the point of sister-in-law control? Why did you have a fate with all kinds of sisters-in-law after crossing over? Could it be that it was influenced by his own "self", that Guan San?

When I thought about it again, I suddenly understood. In this era, the yellow flower girls are hiding in the courtyard of the deep house, where to find it? Until the moment when the red hijab is lifted from the cave room, you can't even see your face, so the women you can see are, of course, all kinds of sisters-in-law.

To put it bluntly, it is not unusual, I don't feel dumb and laughing, laughing at my own self-doubt.

Now that you have figured it out, put aside these distracting thoughts and turn your mind to business, and before you get out, there are still two people to see. One is Baojun, he must have an explanation for himself, but he is a six-rank military attachΓ©, and it is impossible for him to go to Shangfu for no reason to ask for a meeting, so he can only wait for him to send someone to pass it on. The other is the last time I drank and listened to music in Kuiyuan Pavilion, and the person I saw who could speak foreign languages, Guan Zhuofan believes that this person will play a huge role in his future Jihua.

Guan Zhuofan still remembers that his name is Libin, and he borrowed it in the Fayuan Temple outside You'anmen.
