Zhou Xuan said goodbye to all the insect friends, and Boss Feng sent the carriage of the Insect Society to send him back to Qin Mansion.

On the carriage, Laifu Fumo was wearing a mahogany box filled with silver, and he was smirking.

Zhou Xuan said: "Laifu, follow Aunt Ben to work hard, I promise to let you marry a daughter-in-law, and thirty acres of fertile land, this is called a peasant woman, a mountain spring, a little field, and you will have a good life, well, this is twenty taels of silver, you take it first, don't be grateful, this is your labor income, don't say more when you go back to the house, otherwise Song Dachun will be jealous of you." ”

Laifu patted his chest and choked up, saying that he had to follow his uncle in the water and in the fire.

Zhou Xuan said with a smile: "What's in the water, it's not to rob - Xiaosan, Hu Tong, you two will follow me in the future, I plan to set up a bug club to contribute to the development of Jiangzhou's cricket entertainment industry." And one of them gave them twenty taels of silver.

The two simple peasant boys were both red-faced, and they couldn't say a word of gratitude.

The carriage drove into Jiulianfang, the weather was hot, there were many people in the carriage, all of them had drunk, the air was turbid and smelly, Zhou Xuan held the sleeping Xiaodi, poked his head out of the window to breathe fresh air, and suddenly saw an acquaintance, who was walking out of a restaurant on the street with a shy stomach.

"Song Dachun—" Zhou Xuan shouted as he patted the window, and the carriage stopped.

Ding Song Dachun, a colleague of Laifu, heard someone shouting, looked around for a while, and saw Zhou Xuan in the carriage, his face suddenly stiffened for some reason, and he walked over a little embarrassed, and said with a smile: "It turned out to be uncle, you are back." As he spoke, he turned his head to look in the direction of the restaurant he had just come out of.

Zhou Xuan asked: "What are you doing here, did Madame ask you to come to us?" ”

Song Dachun said with a flustered expression: "No, no, the villain met a friend here and drank two glasses with him, so he will go back, and he will go back immediately." As he spoke, he didn't wait for Zhou Xuan and them, and trotted to the Qin Mansion.

Zhou Xuan is a little strange, this Song Dachun is not honest and a little slippery, what friend is he drinking with, so ghostly?

Zhou Xuan drank a few more glasses, his head was a little dizzy, and he didn't think deeply, so he asked the coachman to continue moving forward and return to Qinfu.

What Zhou Xuan didn't expect was that as soon as his carriage drove out of the hundreds, a middle-aged man with a white skin and a thin face walked out of the restaurant, and this person Zhou Xuan also recognized that it was his father-in-law's deputy, Assistant Teacher Jiang of the State Medical Department.

Zhou Xuan returned to the Qin Mansion, first carried Xiaodi to his mother-in-law, and then asked Laifu and Song Dachun to carry the mahogany box containing silver inside.

The whole Qin Mansion knew that the uncle gambled on crickets, and it was a big gamble of three thousand taels of silver, and at this time, when he saw the box brought in, the mansion was a sensation, and they all knew that the uncle had won and the uncle had made a fortune.

Zhou Xuan took eight hundred and twenty taels of silver and put it in his room, carried the remaining two thousand taels together with the mahogany box to Mrs. Qin's room, and said respectfully: "The little son-in-law entrusted the blessings of the father-in-law and mother-in-law, and this time the fighting insect won by luck, and the three thousand taels of gambling silver in addition to the cost of entertaining guests, there are still two thousand eight hundred taels, and the little son-in-law left eight hundred taels for backup, here are two thousand taels, all of which are handed over to the mother-in-law for writing." ”

Mrs. Qin was chatting with the righteous daughter, and after listening to Zhou Xuan's words, she was so shocked that she couldn't speak, and after a while, she moistened her dry lips and said: "Zhou-uh, virtuous son-in-law, it's better for you to keep this silver yourself, this is the money you earn, how can our Qin family bear it!" ”

Zhou Xuan said: "What did my mother-in-law say, Zhou Xuan was in the Qin Mansion for a day, and he was the son-in-law of the Qin Mansion for a day, and the money earned naturally had to be handed over to the elders, and this etiquette could not be missing." As he spoke, he retreated, and his humble appearance was a model for the son-in-law of the Southern Tang Dynasty.

Mrs. Qin looked at the white silver in a daze, thinking about it, completely forgetting that her righteous daughter Su Su's needle was still on the side.

What about the sewing needle, she had been watching Zhou Xuan and Mrs. Qin's expressions coldly just now, and she felt very strange in her heart, she originally thought that Zhou Xuan agreed to a fake marriage for the money of the Qin Mansion, but now it seems that this is not the case at all, what is this Zhou Xuan for, is there really such a filial fake son-in-law in the world?

The needle thought silently for a while, and understood Zhou Xuan's hard work, Zhou Xuan likes Qin Que, and he wants to be a real son-in-law.

Thinking like this, the needle's heart suddenly fell empty.

Dr. Qin's father and daughter came home from work at half past four in the afternoon, and learned that Zhou Xuan had won three thousand taels of silver from Wu Gongcao's son, Dr. Qin was surprised, although Qin Que was also surprised, but he didn't have any special joy, but secretly said to the needle: "Sister Needle, Que'er is right, he can make money." ”

Mrs. Qin asked Yahuan to invite the master and the young lady to her room to discuss things, and the sewing needle was very knowledgeable, knowing that this young lady was not referring to her, so she quietly avoided it.

This family meeting was presided over by Mrs. Qin, who first reported Zhou Xuan's gift of silver, pointed to the mahogany box in the corner of the wall and said, "Two thousand taels of silver are there, what do you say to do?" ”

Dr. Qin shook his head and sighed: "Good boy, good boy, the first time the old man saw him outside the tea stall that day, he knew that he was not an idle person, his whole body exuded the noble aura of a prince, although he was in trouble, he did not hide his brilliance——"

Qin Que heard that his father praised too much, and couldn't help but say, "Okay, Dad, he is made of gold, and it is still shining!" ”

Dr. Qin also laughed: "Don't talk about it, your mother and daughter decide this matter, anyway, the old man can't speak." ”

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Qin insisted that he express his position this time: "Master, you are the head of the family, this matter is naturally your decision, you can speak freely." ”

Dr. Qin felt that Madame's attitude was a little strange, and he twisted his beard and said, "According to the old man, why don't you accept this silver, it's all a family-"

"Well, it's a family, and when Gongzi Zhou marries Sister Sewing, it's really a family." Qin Que heard that there was something in his father's words, and hurriedly said about the sewing needle to act as a shield.

"Huh?" Dr. Qin didn't know about Mrs. Qin's mother and daughter's plan to make it easy to marry, and was very surprised, and after learning the reason, he said angrily: "You guys just mess around, the old man doesn't care." "When you stand up, you have to leave the venue.

Mrs. Qin grabbed her and said, "Master, the matter of sewing needles is just for fun, and you can't make up your mind about such a big thing." ”

Dr. Qin thought to himself what was going on with his wife today, and he delegated power several times, and he was not polite at the moment: "What the old man means is that a handsome talent like Zhou Gongzi is unavoidable, and you insist on pushing it to others, and the old man has nothing to say - Que'er, think about it, if Xiao Lu really cares about you, how can he not even catch up with the marriage date, and he doesn't even have a person to report the news?" ”

Qin Que's tears suddenly burst out of his eyes, and he whimpered and said, "Cousin must be in a hurry, otherwise he will definitely rush here-"

When Dr. Qin saw his daughter crying, he panicked and said, "The old man talks a lot, the old man talks a lot, and the old man washes his face." "Hurry up.

Qin Que gradually stopped sobbing, and the house was very quiet.

After a while, Mrs. Qin asked, "Que'er, what do you say about this?" ”

Qin Que is such a smart girl, she has already noticed that her mother is talking strangely today, and said with tears: "Mother, what's wrong with you, didn't this matter be said a long time ago, could it be that when she saw the two thousand taels of silver surnamed Zhou, her mother changed her mind?" ”

Mrs. Qin's old face turned red and said, "What did you say, this kid, is my mother the kind of person who is greedy for money, my mother thinks that this Zhou Gongzi's character is really good——"

"Mother, don't say it." Qin Que interrupted his mother's words: "Zhou Gongzi is ten thousand times better character, and Que'er only has a cousin in his heart, Que'er will wait, and his cousin will definitely come to marry Que'er." ”

Mrs. Qin sighed, patted the back of Qin Que's hand, and said gently: "Que'er, my mother is also for your good, since you have made up your mind, my mother won't say anything, I just hope that Xiao Lu will come soon, and then my mother will definitely pull his ear and ask him to apologize to you, causing my finch to suffer so many grievances." ”

Qin Que smiled and walked over to massage her mother's shoulder, the mother and daughter were as close as ever, but Qin Que was sullen in her heart, even her mother, who had always supported her, now spoke for Zhou Xuan, and in the entire Qin Mansion, she really became a loner.
