Xuan Huang hugged Xuan Yuemeng and fed Xuan Yuemeng, while complaining to her husband: "What are you betting on?" It's a good day, but you're a long house, do you look like you have a long house? The third room is the hardest thing we have ever lived, and we don't even have a little silver on hand, and the children in our room have not bought new clothes for the Chinese New Year this year, and the children in the second and third rooms are not wearing new clothes? ”
Xuan Hongtao suppressed his throat and was angry: "Don't be noisy! Deliberately trying to let the old man hear, didn't he? Let me tell you, Lao Tzu is annoying! If you want to pass, if you don't want to pass, Lao Tzu will write a letter of resignation, how far you can roll. ”
Xuan Yuemeng in Xuan Huang's arms sweated profusely, and most of his dream of being rich and noble was shattered in an instant, from Xuan Hongtao's words, he probably knew what virtue this guy had, worse than himself in his previous life? In his thirties, he is good at gambling, and he is afraid of his father, and he will bully his wife at home, which is ...... I'm unlucky, if I have such a father, let alone be a gentleman, I'm afraid that eating will be a problem in the future, right? No matter what era it is, the first condition to be a gentleman is to have a good father! Although she has only been born for half a day, Xuan Yuemeng has already set up a grand ambition to enjoy the glory and wealth of the world! Unexpectedly, it seemed that he was about to lose at the starting line, and while he was angry, he couldn't help but glance at Xuan Hongtao.
What Xuan Yuemeng hates most about Xuan Hongtao is the word 'gambling', good to eat, drink, and fun, which can have a limit, but this gambling and drugs are basically waste, and they will affect their families.
Xuan Huang was scolded by Xuan Hongtao to cover his mouth and cry, Xuan Hongtao was not upset, he wanted to slap his wife twice to get angry, and when he saw Xiao'er glancing at himself, he was suddenly even more angry, "The newborn cub dares to glance at Lao Tzu?" Glance at it again, even you will be beaten! Xuan Hongtao said and stretched out his leg and kicked on the edge of the bed.
Xuan Yuemeng was taken aback,, in addition to bullying his wife, even Lao Tzu, who has not been a day old, has to bully? Immediately cried loudly.
When Xuan Yuemeng cried like this, she made Xuan Huang's cry in her heart, hugged Xuan Yuemeng, and pointed at Xuan Hongtao: "You are still not human?" Such a big person is fighting with a newborn child? ”
Xuan Hongtao was blushed by Xuan Huang's words, and he had nowhere to go, so he came to the door of the room suddenly, opened the door, and yelled at his neck: "The fourth family!" Hurry up and take the baby away! I was upset when I saw this little bunny! ”
Xuan Xu was washing dishes in the outer courtyard, although she was the fourth young grandmother in name, but she was actually just an orphan girl who was bought by the Xuan family as a child daughter-in-law the year before last.
The housework of such a large family of the Xuan family, in fact, only Xuan Xu and Lao Xuan's wife and sister-in-law of the concierge Lao Xuan do it, and the two maids of the Xuan Zhou family, Xiaozhen and Xiaocui, are only responsible for taking care of the upper room, unless assigned, they generally only ask about the chores of other rooms, just like that, the Xuan family is equal to only Lao Xuan, Lao Xuan's sister-in-law, Lao Xuan's son Dazhi, and Xuan Xu's family are doing housework. In addition, among the descendants of the Xuan family, there is also a bookkeeper and a master, these two people can only be regarded as half of the subordinates at most, a bit similar to the senior workers of later generations, of course, these two people do not do these chores at home.
Sister-in-law Lao Xuan raised her head, "Fourth young grandmother, you listen, it seems to be calling you." ”
Xuan Xu also heard it, and quickly wiped his hands on the bib, "It's calling me, old Xuan's sister-in-law, I'll come to help you later, I'll take a look." ”
Sister-in-law Xuan: "No need to come, go quickly, Fourth Young Grandma, be careful." ”
Xuan Xu walked quickly to the third courtyard, and Xuan Hongtao said angrily: "Are you deaf? Shouting that it took such a long time to come? I can't shout at you, can I? Hurry up and take the child away, this child is passed on to your fourth room, why are you still arguing for me to sleep? ”
Xuan Huang said angrily: "What are you crazy about? The fourth family is only ten years old, six years younger than Yue Leidu, she is still a child herself, will she take care of such a young child? At least you have to wait for the child to reach the age of one before carrying it to the fourth room! ”
Xuan Hongtao looked at Xuan Xu's thin and slender body, and also felt that what his wife said was reasonable, but since the words had already been exported, if he changed it again, he felt very embarrassed, and couldn't help touching his swollen face that had just been beaten today, "Yo, am I a man or are you a man now?" Is this home up to you or me? Didn't Dad say that this child passed incense to the fourth room? Isn't it the same to send it early and late? What is it that you don't learn? The fourth family, you will take the child away immediately, do you hear? ”
Xuan Huang hugged Xuan Yuemeng tightly, but he refused, Xuan Xu was forced into the house by Xuan Hongtao, only wiping his tears, standing beside Xuan Huang's bed at a loss.
Xuan Yuemeng is very strange, this has been noisy for a long time, and at night, why didn't anyone come out to persuade her? Is this still a family?
Finally someone came, and Xiaozhen, the maid in the upper room, came over: "Uncle, the master said to let the eldest young grandmother move to the fourth young grandmother's house for a month, and when the child is full moon, the eldest young grandmother will move back to live." ”
Xuan Hongtao secretly regained a little face, but when he saw Xuan Huang and Xuan Xu wiping their tears, and then looked at the child who was less than a day old, he was a little unbearable, and he felt that he was making trouble unreasonably: "I know, you go!" ”
When Xuan Huang saw that things were like this, although he was resentful, he didn't dare to disobey the old lady's assignment, so he had to let Xuan Xu's help him pack up his things, and Xuan Xu's took Xuan Yuemeng to live in the four houses next door.
Xuan Yuemeng didn't understand why she had two mothers until this time? The feudal society is really terrible, when people die, they die, what do you do with a ten-year-old daughter-in-law? What else do you want to do with your step-son? The feudal patriarchal system is even more terrifying, even mothers and children can take care of it, how big is it? If it is a modern society, this kind of family conflict that the son is messing around, and the adult advises him to say that it will generally be fine.
This strengthened Xuan Yuemeng's idea of relying on himself, and he had to quickly get money to set up his own door, he now completely stopped dreaming of being a gentleman, shook his tender little paws, and entered the dream fragrance again.
If it is a month, under the care of the two mothers, Xuan Yuemeng is very thoughtful in food and clothing, and the full moon Xuan Yuemeng is healthy and lively, and the tiger head and tiger brain also make people who have seen it say cute.
In this month, although Xuan Yuemeng spent most of his time in the cradle, he also had a general understanding of the entire Xuan family, first of all, the old man Xuan Zonglu, Xuan Zonglu didn't like him, he didn't understand why, it seemed that Xuan Zonglu didn't like children very much, and he wasn't the only one, the old man seemed to like the second son Xuan Hongbo alone, and then the old man was stingy to the point of being a miser, which can be seen from the fact that there are almost no subordinates in the family of a Zhengsanpin master, and the housework in each room is basically taken care of by himself, It's just that the housework in the public middle school is done by Xuan Xu and Lao Xuan's sister-in-law, mainly cleaning, watering flowers, feeding fish, cooking, taking out garbage, chopping wood and carrying water, and driving to buy vegetables.
Originally, Xuan Yuemeng thought that Xuan Zonglu was a clean official, and a clean official could understand it if he was simpler, but later this idea was also overturned by him.
Because Xuan Zonglu gave Xuan Yuemeng a full moon wine, the officials who came were basically not older than Xuan Zonglu, not only did Chonghou not come, but even Chonghou's son Jingduo did not come, even if Chonghou's house and Xuan's family were in an alley, Chonghou asked the servants to send a pair of stationery, which is a fashionable way to give gifts among scholars and high-ranking officials. The only official who came than Xuan Zonglu was Zeng Jize (Zeng Guofan's son), although Xuan Zonglu and Zeng Guofan did not have the status of teachers and students, but they were drawn by Zeng Guofan, and it should be more than the ordinary friendship between teachers and students.
There were twenty tables in the outer courtyard and ten tables in the inner courtyard, Xuan Yuemeng guessed that Xuan Zonglu probably called all the people who could be called, and at that time, most of the people were either in official clothes or fancy clothes, all of them were people with heads and faces in society, and they should all be afraid of the power of the Xuan family.
Xuan Yuemeng, who was held out by an adult, has been observing everything with his dark eyes, like a little adult.
Then from the gossip behind the mother-in-law and mother-in-law, I know that the old man has a lot of income every month, Tianjin Customs, Tianjin ground and foreign affairs have something to do with the buyers, Tianjin officialdom, silver money and goods, goods and goods, silver stickers and silver money, the scope of foreign affairs jurisdiction is too wide, especially in the ground of Tianjin, including the governor of Zhili, the real power of the old man can be ranked in the top five, and anyone who is a little related to the old man will basically eat a share. The old man's backers are Zeng Guofan and Li Hongzao, one is inside, the other is outside, although there is nothing to do with it, but they are all prominent for a while, Xuan Zonglu is cultivating friendship on both sides, plus the top boss of the three trade ministers Yamen is sublime and skillful, Xuan Zonglu has also been very prosperous in Tianjin for more than ten years, and he can sit in this hot position for so many years, Xuan Zonglu is by no means an idle person.
At night, Xuan Zonglu personally held the lamp for Xuan Zhou's family, and looked at Xuan Zhou's who was squatting on the ground and putting the brocade box inside: "Have you collected everything?" ”
Xuan Zhou smiled: "It's okay, sir, it's two thousand taels smaller, it's more than when I gave Yuewu a daughter-in-law, I added a little more, all of them were exchanged for silver tickets, twenty, you see." Looking at it this way, I have to give this child a birthday in the next year. ”
Xuan Zonglu also smiled with satisfaction, and compared three fingers, "That's over the number, right?" It's all exchanged for the silver ticket of the Yisheng, right? It's over that, right? ”
Xuan Zhou's eyebrows nodded with a dazzled smile, "You can rest assured, they are all silver tickets of the Yisheng, which one or two silver I use will not tell you?" How many taels of silver are there, don't you know better than me? Rest. ”
Xuan Zonglu nodded contentedly, hummed a familiar old play, and went back to the house with Xuan Zhou.
How much money the Xuan family has, Xuan Yuemeng doesn't know, he has been estimating, but for the reason that he is too young, that is, he is just planning in his heart.
After Xuan Yuemeng was full moon, Xuan Xu's family was responsible for taking care of Xuan Yuemeng, and Xuan Huang's family would also come to see his son every day, but he no longer took Xuan Yuemeng to sleep. And Xuan Yuemeng's staple food has also been replaced with rice soup boiled from millet porridge, which is definitely a delicacy only available to the landlord and young master in the old days, in the north, even if it is the home of the official gentry, the fine grain is also very golden (not that I deliberately made a mistake, many words will be harmonious, and what I know will be replaced by other words) expensive.
The second house on the east side is the house of Xuan Yuemeng and Xuan Xu's family.
Xuan Xu had just changed Xuan Yuemeng's diaper and was feeding porridge.
Xuan Yuemeng was held in the arms by Xuan Xu's one hand, and before Xuan Xu's every time he fed, he had to touch his lips first, and then put it into Xuan Yuemeng's mouth, although Xuan Xu was only ten years old, he was quick and meticulous.
Xuan Yuemeng may be the best child in the world, others with children are adults pondering children, Xuan Yuemeng is pondering adults, whether it is the rhythm of eating, or the rhythm of and peeing, he will give Xuan Xu a very clear rhythm, and Xuan Yuemeng, who is full of food and drink, never deliberately makes noise, otherwise it is very difficult for Xuan Xu, who is only ten years old, to take a child.
Xuan Yuemeng looked at the childish Xuan Xu family, and sighed in her heart, Xuan Xu is just a third or fourth grade elementary school student in modern times, and she is actually reduced to a little girl who is so old to take care of her? If you follow your original age and the early marriage standards of this era, you can definitely give birth to Xuan Xu.
Xuan Xu looked at Xuan Yuemeng and smiled, "How is it?" Is Yutang full? Meng Meng is the most well-behaved and obedient. "Yutang is a word added by Xuan Zonglu to Xuan Yuemeng later, of course the children of the official eunuchs have to have words, only Bai Ding has no words.
Xuan Yuemeng sweats, you ask me? I'm only a month old, and I can't speak, and even if I can, I can't speak now, right? I can only blink my eyes, hehe, hey, silly.
Xuan Xu sighed softly: "Alas, in the future, the two of us will live together, you have to grow up quickly." After speaking, he took a sip of incense on Xuan Yuemeng's face.
"Second sister-in-law, how is it? I said it's millet porridge, right? ”
Suddenly, a voice came out, startling both Xuan Yuemeng and Xuan Xu.
Xuan Xu hurriedly stood up with Xuan Yuemeng in his arms, and saw that it was the Xuan Yu family of the second family and the Xuan Cha family of the third family who entered the house, and it was the Xuan Cha family who spoke just now.
Xuan Yushi looked at the small bowl in Xuan Xu's hand, brought it over, snapped, and smashed it on the ground, "Whose child didn't eat wheat porridge when he was a child?" Do your children want money? Who told you to steal this millet? ”
Xuan Xu was frightened, and suddenly he was at a loss, and he couldn't help crying.
Xuan Yuemeng saw that the situation was not right, he was full of luck, and he cried loudly, he had no choice, he had no choice but to cry now, and if a little baby who was only a month old spoke up, he had to be regarded as a monster.
Nima, not really, right? Lao Tzu doesn't drink any good things, drink some low-grade rice cereal and have to make trouble?
The big room and the fourth room are next to each other, and the Xuan Huang clan, who heard the movement, has already come over, "What are you doing?" What's going on? ”
Xuan Yushi snorted, "Sister-in-law, you brought all the millet in these four rooms, right?" There is still a mother in charge of this house, what right do you have to steal millet from the kitchen? ”
Xuan Cha followed: "That is, it is always silent, like a thief." ”
When Xuan Huang heard this, he became angry, crying and shouting: "What's wrong with me who brought it?" Don't bully people too much, in the third room, our big room takes the most money from the public every month, and the share of silver every month is the least, and the children eat some millet porridge is also in the way of you? The child is only one month old, can he swallow the rice soup made from millet porridge? ”
Although the Xuan Huang clan is gentle, if it is stepped on like this, it will also fight back in pain, and the mother's love of licking the calf to protect the child makes Xuan Yuemeng feel warm, but she is secretly worried that her two mothers are the opponents of these two tigresses, not to mention, the ten-year-old Xuan Xu's combat effectiveness is almost zero.
The Xuan Yu clan and the Xuan Cha clan were prepared to fight.
Xuan Yushi: "Tell you about millet porridge, what are you talking about?" The share of silver is drawn by the mother every month, how does the mother love to row, is it the turn of our juniors to talk nonsense? Is it your turn to be in charge of this home? ”
Xuan Chashi: "That's it, I've always loved nonsense, and you usually get less money in your big house?" Last time, the eldest brother was beaten, and it must be the gambling account that my father went to pay back for him, three hundred and fifty taels, my father's silver for a year is not enough for this amount, I have never seen so much silver, and I said that I will pay it back for your big house, what did we say? Who is bullying whom? How much money do you pay in your big house? Okay, you let the eldest brother give the errand of the manufacturing bureau to our family Hongyu, and we will pay the silver in the third room next month! ”
The Xuan Huang clan was originally more honest, and the Xuan Yu clan and the Xuan Cha clan were two enemies and one enemy, so they couldn't even interject a word, and they were blocked by the two of them and had to exit the house.
Xuan Yuemeng only realized what a shrew is at this time, what is fierce, let him cry with all his strength, but still can't suppress the powerful artillery of Xuan Yu and Xuan Cha, but it seems to be cheering for the two shrews, he simply didn't cry, but he couldn't wait to join the scolding war immediately, and came up with a lot of scolding words, which was uncomfortable in his stomach.
This one-sided war of scolding continued into the night.
The main hall of the Xuan family.
Today the people arrived more neatly.
Xuan Zonglu sat in the middle, Xuan Zhou sat on the side, and the others stood on both sides according to their seniority.
Xuan Zhou sighed, "Old family, you are the eldest sister-in-law, the eldest sister-in-law should have the appearance of an eldest sister-in-law, if you want to move fine grain, you should ask me first." ”
Xuan Huang wiped his tears, "Mother, didn't I ask you?" I told you twice, the child is too small, the wheat porridge is too thick, the child can't swallow it, take some fine grain to the fourth room to give the child to eat, you say every time you don't have the time to go back and say, but the child can't wait, I went to the kitchen by myself to get a bowl of rice, just for a bowl of rice, as for the two of them to scold me around? ”
Xuan Hongyu snorted: "Sister-in-law, how did you speak?" Is this a bowl of rice thing? Who are you talking to? Dad, do you see? Sister-in-law dares to talk to your mother like this in front of you! Eldest brother! Second brother! You all have a word! If this family is the sister-in-law, then our three rooms will be divided, and the provincial sister-in-law will say that our three rooms do not take silver from the public, and we get a share of silver every month. ”
Xuan Huang was yelled at by Xuan Hongyu, and she couldn't speak, she was aggrieved today, and she was angry today, so she said that she had never said this kind of thing when she handed over the most money to the public house, and now she was said by the third Xuan Hongyu as if she had said it many times, and Xuan Hongyu's words were half cut off, and everything she said seemed to be that she was deliberately fighting with the old lady, which made her even more unable to refute.
Xuan Hongbo smiled: "The third child, don't worry, it's all a family, and it's not a big deal, the sister-in-law is not doing it right, but we all have to look at the eldest brother as brothers, you still have me above, I still have the eldest brother above me, and I have a father." ”
After Xuan Hongbo finished speaking, he touched Xuan Hongtao's elbow, and Xuan Hongtao angrily scolded at Xuan Huang: "You stupid woman, you will cause trouble!" What coffin millet porridge to eat? Isn't it enough to eat wheat porridge? What does the child know? No matter how hard it is to swallow, two more hungry meals to see if he eats? What must have happened to me? For a bowl of rice, as for letting the family stand and listen to the training? ”
Xuan Hongtao's words aroused Xuan Yuemeng's great disgust, although Xuan Yuemeng heard that Xuan Hongtao's internal voice had the meaning of wanting to end quickly, but this was too soft, right? The juniors in Xuan Hongtao's room are also very uncomfortable, this is not in the room, the two of you quarrel in private, this is in the hall in front of the whole family, you don't defend your daughter-in-law, forget it, and help scold, which makes the juniors on this side of the big house have no status in this family in the future! Usually, the younger generations on the side of the big house are wronged everywhere, and the benefits are occupied by the people in the second and third rooms, and everyone in the big room is holding their breath, except for Xuan Yuemeng on the big house, the youngest are in their teens, and they are all sensible.
The juniors on the side of the big room all had stiff faces, and the children in the second and third rooms snickered.
Xuan Hongbo said with a smile: "Big brother, dissipate your anger, it's nothing, it's all a trivial matter, what are you doing with such a big fire?" In fact, I can understand the sister-in-law's thoughts, in this family, the population of the big house is the largest, and now even the children of the four rooms are also the successors of the big house, you are equivalent to two rooms together, up to most of the family, the sister-in-law wants to take care of the house, this is also human nature. ”
Xuan Hongyu said with a smile: "Yes, my sister-in-law has long wanted to be a housekeeper, and the children in our second and third rooms make clothes in the next year, so she said that her mother was partial and unfair, and she did not sort out the accounts of each room, but she didn't want to think about how many times the eldest brother usually advanced money to her mother." ”
Xuan Huang was angry: "Second and third, you don't hurt people to death!" When did I say something bad about my mother's housekeeper? ”
Xuan Zhou stood up and said to Xuan Zonglu angrily: "Master, I'm old, since the eldest daughter-in-law thinks that I can't manage the housekeeper well, let the big house take care of this family in the future." ”
As soon as Xuan Zhou said this, Xuan Yu and Xuan Cha hurriedly went over and helped the old lady, "Mother, don't be sad, this family depends on you." ”
"That's it, mother, don't be angry, don't be angry."
Xuan Hongbo retreated behind Xuan Hongtao, "I won't say it, the provincial sister-in-law said that I hurt her, I helped the round field everywhere and became unflattering, in the future, I won't say anything, I think this family should let the sister-in-law take charge of the house as soon as possible." Third child, do you think this is the reason? ”
Xuan Hongyu was already holding back the fire in his belly and had nowhere to send it, but when he heard Xuan Hongbo ask about himself, he immediately pointed at Xuan Hongtao and scolded: "Xuan Hongtao! You did a good job, I recognize you as the boss, see for yourself what you do? Is there such a way to make your daughter-in-law angry with her mother and father? Dad just paid you back the gambling bill of three hundred and fifty taels, don't let us not know! Our three bedrooms and two bedrooms together are not as expensive as your big house, what do you want? Forcing people to death? ”
Xuan Hongtao was pointed out by Xuan Hongyu and took a step back, and when he saw that Xuan Hongyu had the posture of wanting to do something with him, he waved his hand continuously, "Third child, there is something to say, isn't Dad here?" ”
Xuan Hongyu stepped forward and overthrew Xuan Hongtao to the ground! "Do you know Daddy is here? I'm going to beat you up in front of your dad today! ”
As soon as Xuan Hongyu made such a move, Xuan Huang was worried that her husband would suffer a loss, so he suddenly stopped in front of Xuan Hongyu and pulled Xuan Hongyu's sleeve: "Third child!" What are you doing at me? ”
Xuan Hongyu slapped him out, "You get up!" ”
Xuan Hongyu hit Xuan Huang's face this time, and knocked Xuan Huang to the ground, although Xuan Hongyu is not as powerful as Kong Wu, but he is usually idle and does not do his job, he is soaked in the big alley and the opera garden, good at singing or something, he will take a few tricks, he is quite capable at home, and Xuan Huang's postpartum weakness can withstand this.
Xuan Huang's family was beaten, Xuan Hongtao's juniors couldn't hold back anymore, Xuan Hongtao's eldest son Xuan Yuelei was so frightened that he didn't move; Although the second son Xuan Yuewen and the youngest son Xuan Yuewu were afraid, they still rushed over to pull Xuan Hongyu, and their daughter Xuan Yubing stepped forward crying: "Third uncle, why did you beat my mother?" ”
Xuan Yuelei and Xuan Yuewen's daughter-in-law, Xuan Zhao's Xuan Qian, quietly helped Yu Bing, and Xuan Hongyu did not do it.
Xuan Hongtao's younger generations have made moves, Xuan Hongyu's sons and daughters are more powerful, and because they are usually used to being the king at home, Xuan Yuelu, Xuan Yuqing, and Xuan Yuehua rushed up to scold and scuffle, although there are many people in the big house, they collectively suffer.
Xuan Yuemeng was also stunned in the arms of the frightened and trembling Xuan Xu, this is the house of the official eunuch? Is this a scholarly door? His attention couldn't help but be on the old man Xuan Zonglu, at this time, the old man should speak, right? But he didn't expect Xuan Zonglu to take a sip of tea, and he was actually smoking hookah calmly.
About two minutes later, it wasn't until Yuewen Yuewu and Yubing were beaten many times by Xuanyue, Lu Xuan, Yuehua, Xuan, and Yuqing, and their faces were already injured, that the old man Xuan Zonglu slapped the table with a snap.
In fact, everyone didn't fight to the death, and while fighting, they were all waiting for the old man to stop it, but they didn't expect the old man to stop it after such a long while, and immediately returned to their original positions, waiting for Xuan Zonglu to speak.
Xuan Zonglu glanced at everyone, then smoked a hookah, and said after three bubbles of smoke: "When I die?" Third, how can you do it with your eldest brother? How dare you juniors do it with your third uncle, and how can you fight your own family? Are you so capable? Boss, what do you say? ”
Xuan Hongtao had already gotten up from the ground, and he was not injured except for being pushed by Xuan Hongyu. Where did Xuan Hongtao say anything? I only know how to stand, and I can't make a fart for half a day.
Xuan Zonglu knocked on the table with the copper bottom of the hookah, "Boss, what am I asking you?" Can this family still be like this? ”
Xuan Hongtao lowered his head, "I will discipline myself in this house, I really can't do it, my father will buy me a yard and separate it." ”
Xuan Hongtao's words were beyond Xuan Yuemeng's expectations, I didn't expect that Xuan Hongtao was not stupid, at least his IQ was quite normal, at least he would figure out what others meant, at least he knew that he was looking for an opportunity to ask for silver, which was quite powerful, buy a yard, and get a sum of money, right?
Xuan Yuemeng has always seen clearly as a bystander, although the old man Xuan Zonglu is constantly guiding the process of things, but he did not directly say the words of letting the big house go out, obviously waiting for Xuan Hongtao to speak by himself.
Xuan Yuemeng has been worried about a big problem is afraid that Xuan Hongtao is pure stupid, then troublesome, just gambling, although it is more difficult to do, but he has encountered a lot of gamblers in modern times, several of his own single colleagues like him are very good at gambling, they can even gamble without sleeping all night, and can even lose until there is no money left for dinner, borrow money to gamble, people who are good at gambling are nine times out of ten are blinded by the hope of making money, plus the luck psychology is heavier, gamblers are generally lazy, fantasizing about getting something for nothing, can really get the expected life, it will be better, gambling, it is not completely hopeless, at least in Xuan Yuemeng's view, there is a glimmer of hope, but this line of hope is too ethereal, because most of the people who gamble don't have any face, not only to have someone who can be calm, but also to let the person who can live in this town take the gambler to the normal life, in either let the gambler get a stable job, have an enviable income, have a good prospect, gamblers will also be careful, meet these conditions, It is possible to lead a gambler to the right path.
Xuan Zonglu said with an unmoved expression: "The boss is right, the family has a large population, and there are many people, so it is time to buy another yard and let the boss divide this house, there is a courtyard at the east end of the alley, although it is a little smaller, but I have already asked An Cheng to inquire about the price, and it is quite appropriate." This is not a separation, or separation, I can't separate the family if I don't die, this is the rule set from the Ming Dynasty to our Qing Dynasty, and the father in the family can't be separated if he doesn't die. In my opinion, the eldest will be divided into this room first, and in a few years, the second, third and fourth rooms will also be divided. The eldest one, the second one, the third one, you all talk about it. ”
Xuan Yuemeng now understands everything, this is a serial plan, old man, you have even found a house, you must have planned this scene a long time ago!? First of all, the second and third rooms joined forces to make trouble, and then the old man and the old lady added fuel to the fire, this is the rhythm of directly driving the big house out! Kick out the most useless and populous house and further increase your family's GDP?
Although Xuan Yuemeng hates such a gambling and honest and cowardly father, the combination of honest people and gambling is very troublesome, but it is also a little pitiful for Xuan Hongtao.
A person who is not very capable will also have the hope of wanting to prove himself, although Xuan Yuemeng did not gamble in his previous life, but he also lost a lot when he first started to speculate in stocks, and he also cheated money from his parents, although stock speculation and gambling money are not the same in nature, but people with a bad mentality in stock trading are actually similar to gamblers, so Xuan Yuemeng is not completely unable to understand people like Xuan Hongtao.
Xuan Hongtao, especially as the eldest son, or as an eldest son who is not liked by his parents, the road to the imperial examination is not smooth, and he will never be able to pass the exam again after taking the exam.
The feeling of being despised will be superimposed layer by layer, Xuan Yuemeng has heard them mention Xuan Hongtao these days, and it is the three hundred and fifty taels of gambling accounts, and the rest are ten taels and fifteen taels last year, and at most there are not more than twenty-five taels of loose accounts, which shows that Xuan Hongtao has not been addicted to gambling in the past two years, and the biggest account is these three hundred and fifty taels, which can at least show that Xuan Hongtao's degree of addiction to gambling is not particularly serious, and it seems that Xuan Zonglu can discipline Xuan Hongtao. Since you have arranged errands for Xuan Hongtao, why can't you educate your son with more snacks? At this time, the parents not only didn't think about how to pull the child and how to make the situation of the big house better, but also pushed a palm behind their backs, and in the end, Xuan Hongtao, who was getting deeper and deeper on the gambler's road, led the family to poverty and the abyss of family failure, right? Then the second and third rooms are on the official road, relying on the financial resources of the Xuan family and Xuan Zonglu's connections, paving the Qingyun Avenue.
Xuan Yuemeng silently added a little sympathy for Xuan Hongtao in her heart, which increased her anger against this feudal family, Nima! You plan one plan after another, and you don't see blood when you kill! It's all a family, can they use their scheming so poisonously? And don't know, tiger poison doesn't eat children? And I don't know, it's the same root?
Xuan Hongtao's lips trembled slightly, and his two fists clenched hard.
