When Cao Song returned home, Cao Hao and Chu Yu had not yet returned home. Cao Song entered the second gate, came to the upper room of the Shaoyuan, and said goodbye to Zhaojia's family.

Because Cao Song went out in the name of going to see Feng De and Feng Che, Zhao Jia's asked a few more gossips about the mansion over there. Cao Song went to Zhaojia Mansion to take a turn, where did he know this, and the chaos was over.

Zhao Jiashi couldn't help but persuade: "Don't go to your grandfather's house all the time, and go to your uncle to say goodbye!" ”

This is an old saying, Cao Song was impatient, and said: "Mother, my son is still in the filial piety period, where is it good to go all out?" ”

Zhao Jiashi put down the cigarette pouch pot in his hand, glanced at him, and said, "Oh, do you still know that in the filial piety period?" Why, if you go to your grandfather's house, you can't go to your uncle's house? Your uncle loves you, he won't pick on this! ”

Cao Hao was afraid that his mother would be nagging again, so he happened to see several bags of small clothes on the kang, like the fourth sister's childhood, so he said, "Mother, how did you turn these out?" The fourth sister has grown a lot in the past six months, and she shouldn't be able to wear it. It's the fifth son, and the size is about the same as the fourth sister. ”

Zhao Jia's expression froze when he heard the mention of Wu'er. When she found these, she did have the intention of adding clothes to Wu'er so that she could save some chewing. According to her meaning, although everyone spends all the money in the public school, but it is so extravagant that when the family is separated, the sons are not allowed to drink the northwest wind.

Cao Hao is not worried, he has a few properties in his hands. Her sons, except for Cao Song, who attacked his father's title and made some progress, the other sons have not yet had a promising future.

It is a penny of silver to be able to save a penny, no matter what she says, she is also an elder, if she takes the lead in frugal spending, Cao Hao and his wife are not too extravagant.

Therefore, she only wanted to find out the old clothes of the fourth sister today. But the fourth sister is growing, and the fifth sister is also growing, and I found two new ones to compare with the five children, half a section smaller, where to wear them?

However, she didn't want to toss in vain, so she said to Cao Song: "Find it out for Hengsheng, the parents of the children can be fast, and they don't need to buy clothes." ”

Cao Song couldn't help but widen his eyes and wondered, "Mother, you always remember to be confused, right?" Hang Seng is a little boy, how can he wear the clothes of a little girl? ”

Zhao Jia's face snorted, stretched out his hand and pointed at Cao Song's head, and said, "What did you say?" It's not for a few of your little brothers, there is no income in the public middle school, and there are no elders in the house, and the money is like flowing water. Now, I'm here, how can I not be more stumbling! ”

Cao Song listened, frowned and wondered, "Mother, has our family come to this point?" It's just a few of us, and we didn't wear old clothes when we were young! Brother and sister-in-law are hurting Hengsheng, besides, Hengsheng is still young, how much money can it cost to buy clothes? ”

"No matter whether it's a cat or a dog, a fragrant one, or a smelly one, you can get it in the house, this loser!" Zhao Jia took a puff of cigarette and muttered.

Cao Song heard that this was not good, and asked with a red face, "Mother, what are you muttering?" ”

Seeing that his son was staring at his eyes with a faint sense of reproach, Zhao Jiashi couldn't help but feel aggrieved, and his eyes were already red. She just wanted to scold her son, when she saw Mama Zhang come in tremblingly.

Although Cao Song didn't wait to see this old woman with a broken mouth in the early years, for the sake of her mother, she still owed: "Mama! ”

Mama Zhang smiled: "Oh, it's the second master who is here." The old slave hasn't seen the second master for several days, and he's thinking about it! Now that it's cold, the second master likes to kick the quilt when he is young, and the wind blows carefully, but he doesn't dare to mess around with those foxes......"

Cao Song listened to her nagging, and his heart was a little impatient, and his face sank.

Zhao Jia's didn't notice that his son was unhappy, so he asked Mama Zhang to sit next to the small pestle next to the kang, and asked, "How is it, but I understand it, how much is Tian's monthly silver?" ”

Mama Zhang was determined to be teased, stroked her chest and said, "Madam, you allow the old slave to calm down first!" I don't know how this Amethyst aunt can manage the house, all of them are like gourds with sawed mouths. The old slave tossed around for a long time and looked for several people, and then asked at Xiao Er's house in the back kitchen. ”

Zhao Jiashi nodded, and asked anxiously: "Just ask to understand, how much, will it be as much as the five girls?" ”

"Oh, ma'am, you're saying less! Not to mention Grandma Tian, it is Zuo Cheng and Zuo Zhu, the two masters, and the monthly money is the same as that of the five girls, they are all two taels! Mama Zhang said, stretched out her right hand and flipped it over, and said, "Tsk, grandma is generous enough, what about the monthly money given to Grandma Tian!" ”

Zhao Jiashi was upset, and couldn't help but raise his voice and said, "Five taels? What kind of grandmother is she? What is it called to fill these coins with outsiders? ”

When Mama Zhang heard this, she waved her hand and said, "Madam, it's not five taels, it's ten taels!" plus the two masters, Grandma Tian has fourteen taels of silver per month. This food, clothing and chewing are all in the house, this is not for nothing! ”

Zhao Jia's face was already blue, and he snorted coldly: "Nonsense, what is this family for?" If we really have mountains of gold and silver in our family, when the two of them come back, I have to pull and pull! ”

Mama Zhang was responding to the peace, Cao Song couldn't listen to it anymore, frowned and asked, "Mother, this is a good birth, but what are you trying to catch?" ”

Zhao Jiashi was angry, and when he heard his son's words, he was furious, waved the cigarette bag and pot in his hand, and threw it at Cao Song: "If you don't fight for something, you will help your brother speak, and forget whose belly you came out of?" I'm so hard-boiled, for which one? You don't know what to do, bastard! ”

Mama Zhang listened and hurriedly persuaded: "Don't worry, wife, the uncle is used to coaxing people, the second master is still young, and he can't worry too much!" As he spoke, he said to Cao Song: "The second master didn't hurry up to make amends to his wife, but these wives bothered to plan for the second master!" ”

The cigarette pouch pot was still on fire, and the hot copper pot just fell on Cao Song's cheeks, and it immediately burned a red mark. With a "choking" sound, the cigarette pouch pot fell to the ground, and the half-burned tobacco leaves inside were scattered all over the ground.

Cao Hao only felt that his face was burned and painful, and his heart was full of anger.

He couldn't be angry at his mother, seeing Mama Zhang's yin and yang beside him, fanning the flames, his eyes were horizontal, and he said to Mama Zhang: "It's all your-stirring stick that stirred up the peace, making the house uneasy, and don't let the master get out!" ”

Mama Zhang was frightened, looked at Zhao Jiashi with a trembling voice, and said with a crying voice: "Mrs...... This old slave...... The old slave went on the orders of his wife......"

Zhao Jiashi didn't expect his son to make a mistake, so he trembled with anger, and pointed at Cao Song speechless.

Seeing that Zhao Jia's family didn't speak, Mama Zhang looked at Cao Song tremblingly.

Cao Song raised his arm, glared and said, "Old man, don't you get out yet, you want to taste the master's fist?" ”

Mama Zhang had seen Cao Song be powerful, and although she was unwilling, she still retreated tremblingly.

Zhao Jiashi took a breath, pointed at Cao Song's nose, and scolded: "You unfilial son! Okay, you're going to learn from Xiao Wu! Xiao Wu is looking at the uncle and aunt who are closer than their own mothers and brothers, you are here to tie up your brother, and Lao Tzu Niang can't take care of it? ”

Cao Song saw his mother's voice, frowned, and said, "Mother, what are you going to toss?" These words, you don't have a few good words in your words. Sister-in-law has a good temper and has always respected you; It's already hard for my brother to be on an errand outside, and he still has to worry about family affairs? You said that it doesn't matter if you are happy, the younger brothers take it seriously in their hearts, what are the complaints about the elder brother, and how can you have a good life if you have a suspicion? ”

Zhao Jia's family was still worried about whether his son was burned, but when he heard this, he was so angry that he said, "What's the matter?" Do you want your brothers to learn from you, a useless calf, and honor him to heaven? ”

Cao Song has also grown up over the years, and he is no longer as frizzy as in the past. Seeing that his mother seemed to have a deep grudge against his brother, he quieted down, sat down on a chair, looked at Zhao Jia's and said, "If mother wants to talk, let's talk about it!" The son doesn't know, what did the elder brother do, is it not worthy of our younger brother's respect? ”

Although Zhao Jia's family has a lot of dissatisfaction with Cao Hao, it is just a trivial matter. If you want to find fault with Cao Hao, she can't say it for a while.

Cao Song saw his mother like this, and knew that she was just looking for trouble, so he sighed in his heart and said, "Mother, if you can't get used to living in this mansion, let's let my brother help buy a house and move out!" ”

When Zhao Jiashi heard this, he was very surprised, stared at Cao Song for a long time, and asked, "Song'er, are you thinking of splitting up?" ”

Cao Song nodded and said, "Since my mother is not happy living in this mansion, let's split up!" ”

Although he was reluctant to give up his brother and sister-in-law, he also knew that his mother had always been used to being a family in the south, and now he was uncomfortable, which was also related to his sister-in-law's house. Staying in this side of the house made everyone uneasy, making the brother and sister-in-law tired, and hurting the feelings of the brothers.

The old lady and the old lady have passed away for many years, and there is no reason why two brothers will not be separated for a lifetime. It's just that Cao Yin and Cao Quan are two brothers and sisters, and Cao Yin has always taken care of his younger brother, so he has never separated from the family.

Now that Cao Quan has passed away, and the Cao Song brothers are getting older, it makes sense if they want to split up. But...... Zhao Jiashi looked at the furnishings in the house, thinking of the servants of the Pingjun Mansion and the Chunjun Wangfu who came to ask for peace, and called "Mrs. In-laws" one by one.

This is the Earl's Palace, what kind of decency is it to marry his sons in the Earl's Palace, and to marry his daughter-in-law in the Earl's Palace?

Zhao Jia's expression was stunned, and he said to Cao Song: "There is no half of the industry in the public school, and there is not much money, what is the share?" You stupid boy, put out this terrible thought! ”

Cao Song muttered: "Mother also knows that there is no property in the public middle school!" The son's mother held it in her hand, saying that she wanted to save it for her son's marriage. What we spent up and down was all the money that the uncle and his brother had returned to the public school. Isn't there still the old lady who left us the wedding money? Why is it like this, taking advantage of his brother and sister-in-law clearly, his son feels panicked! ”

Zhao Jiashi was choked and speechless, thinking that her husband had said similar things before his death, and he didn't know how to refute it.

I heard the sound of footsteps in the yard, and there was a maid under the porch: "Mrs., the uncle and grandmother have returned home, come and say hello to the wife!" ”

Zhao Jia's expression was a little uncomfortable, and he straightened his waist and said, "Please let them in!" ”

Cao Hao and Chu Yu had just entered the mansion and had not yet returned to Wutong Garden, still wearing clothes to go out.

Cao Song saw his brother and sister-in-law come in, and hurriedly got up from his seat.

Cao Hao saw a red mark the size of a copper coin on his cheeks, and just wanted to ask why, his eyes swept to the cigarette pouch and pot on the ground, so he didn't speak.

After Chu Yu greeted Zhao Jia's family with Cao Hao, he took two packets of fruits from Xiyun's hands, personally put them on the side of the kang, and said, "Second aunt, this is the eight fine dim sum of Qianmen Jufuzhai, among which the almond cake and egg yolk crisp are the best. Because he knew that the second aunt had a bad appetite for the change of seasons, the uncle deliberately went around to the front door to buy it. The second aunt tastes every bite, which means that we have reached the filial piety of the younger generation! ”

As soon as Zhao Jia's side finished arranging Cao Hao and his wife, he saw them like this, and he couldn't erase it in front of his son, and smiled slightly embarrassedly: "I'm not a child, what are you doing with these snacks?" Didn't waste money? ”

Chu Yu said with a smile: "These fine snacks are not sweet, they are good to eat, even when my mother is in Beijing, she also loves to eat." ”

Cao Hao had already bent down to pick up the cigarette pouch and pot on the ground, and reprimanded Cao Song in a low voice: "You are 'no matter how much you go to the house for three days', and now you have learned to be angry." Why is it not sensible and annoys the second aunt? ”

While talking to Chu Yu, Zhao Jiashi listened to Cao Hao with his ears stunned, and when he saw him ask the reason, he was afraid that his son would talk straight away, so he coughed twice.

Chu Yu asked with concern, "Second aunt, what's uncomfortable about this?" Would you like to ask a doctor to come and take a look? ”

Cao Hao looked down at the cigarette pouch and pot in his hand, and half of the cigarette pouch on the kang, and persuaded: "The second aunt still smokes two less bags of cigarettes a day, the north is dry, and her throat hurts if she smokes too much!" ”

Cao Song looked at his mother sitting on the kang, her face flushed, and she couldn't speak......
