The spring breeze on Zhiniang's father's face surprised Sun Dan, he stood still and looked at his father-in-law up and down.

The butcher was picking at a pork leg bone with a knife, and his son was helping with a limp leg. After all, it is crippled and slow. The butcher threw a slap on his son's back and said angrily: "You useless plague weapon, if you shave a bone, it will kill you." For so many years, you have eaten me and used me, and you have gone out like white flowers and silver, and now you have grown up, but it is useless at all, and you have wasted three meals of white rice a day. Malier, take out these two thigh bones for me, wrap them in lotus leaves, and give them to my baby daughter and son-in-law to stew and drink at home. ”

"Daddy!" Brother Zhiniang snorted dissatisfiedly, but his eyes were not bad and stared at Sun Dan.

Sun Dan didn't pay attention to the hostility in Wan Li's eyes, but it was Wan Butcher's enthusiasm that made him wary.

"Hello Daddy." Zhi Niang whispered hello: "Big brother is good." ”

"Hmph." Wanli let out a muffled snort.

"It's good, it's all good." Butcher Wan responded with a smile, his eyes narrowed into a slit, and he looked Zhi Niang up and down: "Daughter, on the day you just got full moon, I spent ten yuan to invite a Xiangshi to show you your face, and the Xiangshi said that you have good luck in your life, and you are rich and noble." Haha, that guy is really right, who are you, you are the seed of my ten thousand butchers, and naturally you have the appearance of being rich and noble. Well, I'm not wrong. ”

Zhiniang thought that her father knew that Sun Dan had made a lot of money in the past two months, and now she was praised by her father, and she was also happy in her heart: "What did Daddy say, Sun Lang and I are just small households, and we are satisfied if we can ask for a hot meal." ”

"What kind of small door, small family?" The Butcher snapped open, his eyes squinting. His eyes were like two round copper coins emitting yellow light outward, "Brother Dan's affairs must not be hidden, he can be the first in the county exam." Now, the whole county has spread all over the county, and it is said that the Sun family has a little talent, and sooner or later he will be promoted to a person, a jinshi, and a big master. Hehe, in the future, my son-in-law will be the eldest master, and my daughter will naturally be the wife, and my old man will be able to enjoy being an old lady. ”

Zhi Niang hurriedly said: "That's not the case, Daddy, you made a mistake." ”

"What's wrong, what's wrong?" Butcher Wan smiled, wrapped two pork leg bones with lotus leaves, and stuffed them into Zhi Niang's hands: "Take it back and stew the soup, it's been bitter for you in the past two years." ”

Next to him, Brother Zhiniang was unhappy: "Dad, these two leg bones were promised to be left for the Gong family noodle shop to make broth, you gave them to Zhiniang, how to explain to others later." ”

"Confess, confess." The butcher shouted angrily: "I know you can't see your sister live a good life, what are you?" You are my species, and your sister is not my species? It's all my heart, and I feel sorry for everyone. Hugh said two bones, even if you give her all my meat and my property, it's just my words, and it's not your turn to make a face. ”

Zhiniang heard her father say such intimate words, and her eyes were a little red: "Thank you Daddy." ”

Sun Dan sneered in his heart, he could understand that this old husband had heard that he had won the first place and was optimistic about his future, but now he came to curry favor.

Let's see how he performs.

The scene staged by the Wanjia meat case was very lively, and people with good deeds had come over to watch the excitement on the side.

Zhi Niang took the pig bones and whispered: "Daddy misunderstood, although the first place in the county examination this time is also called Sun Dan, it is my Sun Lang, but another Sun family child with the same name and surname." ”

"No, good daughter, you won't lie to your father, will you?" Wan Butcher still didn't believe it.

"That's just the way it is." Zhiniang also felt embarrassed and said, "Daddy, don't forget, Sun Lang is illiterate, how can he go to take the exam, and how can he get the first place?" ”

"Ahh Butcher Wan was dumbfounded, and when he thought about it, this is indeed the truth. He slapped his head suddenly: "Confused, confused, how can a blind person take the first exam?" Lao Tzu will be embarrassed and lose a lot of hair. ”

The people watching the excitement next to him began to coax: "Lao Wan, you want to be a scholar and want to go crazy, and you don't want to think about what kind of goods you are, just a knife maker who kills pigs, and you also want to be rich?" ”

Everyone coaxed together, Butcher Wan was very embarrassed, looked up, but saw Sun Dan standing there with a sarcastic smile on the corner of his mouth.

It didn't matter if the butcher looked at it, the more he looked at Sun Dan, the more unpleasant he became, and there was an evil fire rising in his heart.

He made a blank face and said: "Zhiniang, if your eldest brother doesn't say that I forgot, the pork leg bone that the palace family noodle shop urged me tightly, and I can't go back on what I promised to others, so you better give me back this bone." ”

"Give it to me." Zhiniang's eldest brother Wanli suddenly stretched out his hand, snatched the lotus leaf from Zhiniang's hand, and sneered in his mouth: "Do you really think you are a lady, and you also want to stew soup for use?" ”

"You ......" Tears suddenly welled up in Zhi Niang's eyes.

This sudden scene silenced everyone in the audience.

"It's hurting, it's hurting!" Sun Dan was furious and said secretly: "These two guys, one old and one young, are they really hateful, are there any people who do this?" If I don't get this field back today, will I really be a bully for the two of me? ”

He didn't talk nonsense, stepped forward and pulled away Zhiniang, stared at the butcher quietly, and said lightly: "Old Taishan, can you do something?" ”

"What's the matter, it's a fart, you shit, you shit." Butcher Wan disdainfully threw the two leg bones on the board: "If you want to eat my pork, buy it with money, don't try to beat my mind." ”

"Yes, don't try to beat our Wanjia idea." Wanli interjected at the right time.

"Hehe, you don't feel sorry for your daughter, you don't feel sorry for your biological sister, my Sun Dan still feels sorry for your own woman!" Sun smiled lightly, ignored the father and son, walked to another meat case next to him, and threw a piece of silver over: "Boss Zhou, here are two taels of silver, how much pork can you cut?" ”

"Two taels of silver, enough to buy one hundred and fifty catties of meat." The Zhou butcher next to him hurriedly replied that in the middle of the Ming Dynasty, the price was extremely low, and a pound of pork was only thirteen yuan. This street is the main distribution center of agricultural and sideline products in Zouping County, and there are many sellers who sell pigs and ducks. Zhou Butcher is the main competitor of Wan Butcher's business, and when he saw such a big business coming to his door today, he was unexpected, but he was also happy in his heart, and he replied respectfully.

"I don't need so much, I'm going back to Sun's Mansion soon. So the ingots will remain with you for a while. You send half a pound of meat to my house every day and give it to my wife until the money is spent. By the way, if there is a good launch, send some over. My lady is not in good health and needs to be nourished with meat. Sun Dan smiled and said: "It's still the same sentence, my wife hurts herself, others can't count on it, and I Sun Dan didn't think about who to count on." ”

"Okay, you can rest assured." Butcher Zhou sang a promise loudly, and shouted to the apprentices around him: "Ma Li, Boss Sun takes care of my business, you give me more diligence in your legs and feet, and give me half a pound of good front seam leg meat and send it to Sun's house." ”

"Gotcha!" The apprentice knew that Butcher Zhou had the intention to find bad luck for Butcher Wan, so he also gave a long answer.

The face of the butcher Wan turned blue and white, and he suddenly snorted and shouted: "Old Zhou, I don't know what my son-in-law is, and I suddenly took out these two taels of silver, don't be fake." Nowadays, there are many people who adulterate in silver, as friends for many years, don't say I didn't warn you. ”

Butcher Zhou sneered: "Thank you for your concern, Lao Zhou, I have touched more silver than I have eaten, my eyes are poisonous, as soon as the silver is in my hand, I will know what the color is." This is full of snowflake silver, what, Lao Zhouli doesn't believe it. Oh, I see, you've never seen a lot of silver in your day, and you don't have the strength to see it. Open your eyes today. "Anyway, pick up the bone knife and go down.

"Dang!" With a bang, the ingot was cut in two. The fracture shimmered with the roundness of silver.

Everyone in the audience laughed: "It is indeed full of fine silver." ”

The Butcher stopped talking, and his face was so gloomy that it was about to drip water.

Sun Dan was naturally not interested in caring about whether his father-in-law's mood was beautiful, so he took out the silver taels out of his arms to purchase them in the market, and placed an order with the chicken seller who sold ducks, and arranged Zhi Niang's food for this month properly, and then left slowly with his hands behind his back with satisfaction.

After careful calculation, four taels of silver went out like this.

When the onlookers saw Sun Dan's bold move, they suddenly felt a little awe, and silently flashed out of a passage to see Sun Dan and Zhiniang leave. Then they got together and whispered: "Sun Dan, this kid seems to have made a haircut." ”

"Well, I heard that I met a nobleman."

"Yes, walking in the Hou family of Huichang all day long, there are nobles all over the place, as long as you meet someone who looks down on him, a little leakage between his fingernails is enough for ordinary people to eat and drink."

"Good luck, I'll just say, I don't think this young person is an ordinary person."

The butcher finally broke out, he spat fiercely, and scolded loudly: "The girl is outgoing, and Lao Tzu is also unlucky, giving birth to a disobedient and unfilial girl." The silver of the white flowers is cheaper than others! Rebel, rebel! ”

After scolding twice, Butcher Wan couldn't catch his breath, coughed a few times, sat on the greasy case, and couldn't stop panting.

"Dad, are you alright?" Wan Li hurriedly asked.

"Fuck you, you wish your Lao Tzu would die soon, so that my family property can marry the fox of the Tang family." The more Butcher Wan thought about it, the more angry he became, and slapped Wan Li in the face: "Get out, I got angry when I saw you lame, I knew that I gave birth to you in the first place, and I threw it directly into the moat to feed the fish." ”

Wanli was also extremely annoyed when he ate this slap, and shouted in a low voice: "Dad, it's not polite for you to beat me again." ”

"Lao Tzu beats his son, it is justified." Another slap in the face.

Wanli stopped doing it, untied the dirty apron on his body, and threw it to the ground: "Don't do it, there is no way to do this job." Help others kill pigs, and there is a tael of silver every month to get paid, and do it for you, only three dry meals to eat, and there is no pocket money. I'll go home and lie down and raise meat, you can't go without food, starve me to death." Hmph, no matter how nonsense it is, I won't even eat, and I won't be the queen of your family. ”

……

"Don't send it, I'll go to Sun's Mansion by myself." Sun Dan waved his hand at Zhi Niang.

"Remember to come back early on the first day of next month." Zhi Niang said, "Father's ...... I've always felt that something was wrong today. ”

"Ignore him, the more you ignore him, the more energetic he becomes." Sun smiled lightly: "There are some things you can't hide, the weaker you are, the more others will bully you." ”

Zhi Niang smiled slightly: "With you, I can't stand being bullied by others." ”

"Gone." Sun Dan strode forward, it was about to be the government exam, and he had to prepare for his homework.
