Chapter Eighty-Nine: Extravagance and Greed, Honesty, and Dishonesty

The tiger's head is different from ordinary people when he has a small strength, and he is rarely revealed in front of people under the orders of old monks and Taoist idiots. But at home, the family is somewhat aware. They didn't dig into it, they just thought that the tiger head was stupid and stupid, and they didn't think there was anything unusual.

However, thinking of the shortcomings of the eldest grandson, Wang Fuping immediately pulled out the cold in his heart, and hesitated: "The second son has the heart to mention it, and the little old man is grateful, but the tiger head is not like an ordinary child, will he live up to the hard work of the second son?" ”

The palace is accompanied by reading, how can anyone move forward, the huge Wang family, and only two people enter the palace. Although they are also surnamed Wang, they are given the surname by the main family, and the original surname has long been unknown, and even the collateral clansmen of the Wang family are not as good, where are they qualified to send their children into the palace?

The second son just said that the tiger head entered the house, and looked at the meaning, and there was no name for accompanying the reader.

Wang Fuping said this, his heart swayed, and sometimes felt that this was an opportunity, no matter whether the tiger head could come out in the end, as long as he befriended Dao idiot and Wang Qi, it was also a good thing; Sometimes I feel that such a good opportunity is not a waste to give the tiger head. It would be better if the smart and clever second grandson was introduced.

But looking at the lukewarm expression of the Taoist idiot, Wang Fuping thought that the second son did not owe anything to their family. The old monk's last life was not to take care of their family, but to mention the tiger head alone, not that they would replace the tiger head if they wanted to.

He couldn't help but feel annoyed in his heart, since his father's death, because of filial piety, the relationship with Xishan Temple has become far away; Otherwise, if the old monk left a word to take care of his family, even the sect side would treat them more seriously.

Now it's too late to regret it, he can only blame the eldest son and eldest daughter-in-law, such a good tree is not relied on, the family is counting on a child, how can the imperial examination be cheap over there. No matter how many families there are, they may not be able to produce a talent after several generations of cultivation.

Dao idiot said: "Shizi's milk brother is ten years old this year, obsessed with martial arts, and there are no age-appropriate playmates in the house. I want to bring the tiger head into the house, and I want to be his companion. ”

Wang Fuping's swaying heart suddenly settled, it turned out that the eldest grandson entered the palace to be a playmate for the prince's milk brother. In this way, there is really nothing to do with his second grandson.

The tiger head has a good temper and is obedient, but his head is too stupid, and if he follows to learn literacy, he can't think about what it will be; If it's just children playing with each other, it's fine.

Thinking that the prince has no own brother, this milk brother is even pleasing to the son of the second son, so he obviously has a very high status in the palace. Even if Tiger Head is just a playmate in the past, the benefits in the future are indispensable.

Wang Fuping was overjoyed and said: "After the tiger head, I will bother the second son to take care of it more, and his father and mother will go to talk about it." ”

Dao Idiot thought for a while and said, "The family affairs of the tiger head, the village chief doesn't have to worry about it. When the tiger head is older, I will ask my aunt to protect the tiger head. ”

Wang Fuping's eyes widened in shock: "What the second son said, is it the aunt and grandmother in the palace?" ”

This sentence is a fool's tiger skin. He didn't want the village chief's family to have a little daughter-in-law one day, in the name of the tiger's wife; I don't want the tiger head to come out in the future, and his father and mother come out to point fingers at the tiger head.

Dao Idiot nodded and said, "Naturally, it's her." After all, the tiger's surname is Wang, and it was me and the seventh brother who brought it into the house, so it will naturally be taken care of by my aunt in the future. ”

On the Wang family's side, they don't want to be a servant, but they also want their children and grandchildren to study and become officials, and they will live three or two generations and hide their background. When the time comes, hang under the head of the Wang family to be a godfather, who can ask for a detailed study of their origins.

Now that he heard that he would be taken care of by Mrs. Wang, Wang Fuping was naturally overjoyed. They are a big family, saying that they are old servants of the Wang family, but in fact, in addition to the late old lady who was a servant, from Wang Fuping's brothers to the grandchildren below, they are all good citizens.

If the tiger head really entered Mrs. Wang's eyes, maybe their family would be decent. If you are looking for a house to do with your relatives, you don't have to wait for two or two lifetimes.

Thinking about these clearly, Wang Fuping couldn't wait to pack the tiger head immediately, and finally didn't get carried away, and said a few words of thanks to the second son.

After the idiot finished talking about business, he had no intention of keeping it, Wang Fuping looked at his plain clothes, his heart was empty, and he swallowed the words of the guest.

However, because he heard that Wang Qi and Wang Sanlang also came over, Wang Fuping still sent them out in person, and asked the second son to pack a big box to eat, and instructed his son to send them back to Xishan in person.

Tiger Head and his father were also entertaining guests in the front yard, and he showed up to meet the Taoist idiot and Tiger Head. Although he wanted to speak and stopped, he was glared at by Wang Fuping and honest. It's still Second Uncle Wang, it seems that he really feels sorry for his nephew, I don't know when he took the candy and filled several cloth pockets on the tiger head.

The tiger head has sugar in his mouth, his cheeks are bulging, and his mouth is drooling brightly, looking more and more stupid.

The tiger head and his mother accompanied the guests in the west courtyard, and she didn't know the movement here, so she didn't show up from beginning to end anyway.

Hutou's sibling brother, a teenager, dressed in new clothes, followed his father's side, looking at Hutou's eyes with contempt and jealousy, and Wang Qihu was very angry.

The idiot left the suitcase, politely refused Uncle Wang's send-off, and the four of them returned the same way.

Thinking of the second brother of the tiger head, Wang Qi said angrily: "Brother bullshit, what kind of eyes are you?" Just like that, I still have the face to be a prodigy, I don't know what is filial, if I have such a brother, I have to fight eight times a day! ”

Hearing him say this, Wang Sanlang looked at the tiger's head.

The tiger's face was full of entanglement, and tears were almost coming out.

Wang Sanlang was startled, and hurriedly pulled Wang Qi and said, "Seventh brother, don't say a word." ”

Wang Qi realized that the tiger head was wrong, laughed twice, patted the tiger head's shoulder, and said: "Tiger head, don't be uncomfortable, he didn't treat you as a brother, and you don't treat him as a younger brother, and your brother will cover you in the future!" ”

The Taoist idiot was beside him, smiling sullenly.

It's really a chicken-and-duck story.

If the tiger head will take those things to heart, it is not the tiger head.

The tiger head seemed to have made a great determination, sniffled, held back the tears swirling in his eyes, and stretched out his fist at Wang Qi.

Wang Qi and Wang Sanlang were puzzled, and stood down to look at the tiger head.

Tiger Head's fist slowly opened, and inside was a soggy half-inch square of pine nut candy.

The entanglement on the tiger's face has faded, only the joy of sharing remains, and he looked at Wang Qi and said, "Eat!" ”

Wang Qi's eyes widened: "This is for me?" ”

The tiger's eyes were eager to stick to the pine nut candy, and he pulled them apart vividly, and nodded with his eyelids down.

Wang Qi only felt that he was ironed all over, not dirty at all, so he immediately took it and threw it in his mouth, laughed and said: "The tiger head is really good, I know who is good and who is bad!" Between speaking, he raised his eyebrows and looked at the idiot, very proud.

Only then did Wang Sanlang realize that the entanglement of the tiger head was uncomfortable, not for his brother's white eyes at all, but for this piece of pine nut candy, and he couldn't help but laugh.

He wondered if Tiger Head would also give him a piece of candy, but Tiger Head looked at Wang Qi with a smile, but his hands tightly covered his pocket with sugar, and he didn't mean to take any more sugar.

Wang Sanlang didn't think it was wrong, he went up the mountain for a few days, he was with the Taoist idiot every day, and he didn't play with the tiger head all day long like Wang Qi, and it was not surprising that the tiger head valued Wang Qi more.

Wang Qi's pride did not last long.

When he returned to Xishan Temple, Wang Qi was sad. Because the tiger head took out all the sugar and pushed it to the idiot. He didn't take a second look at the pile of candy before he was guarded by the tiger's head, and looked at him as if he were a sugar thief.

The Taoist idiot took a gauze bag, put all the sugar in it, handed it to the tiger head, and said, "It's still three grains a day." ”

The tiger head smiled and nodded, and went out with the sugar bag.

Wang Qi looked out and said, "Erlang, are you restricting the tiger's head to eat sugar?" ”

The Taoist idiot said: "The tiger head has been sweet since childhood, if it is not limited, the teeth will rot early." ”

Wang Qi was a little depressed: "The tiger head still listens to you." ”

Dao Idiot smiled: "Although the tiger head has few words, he understands in his heart and knows that I am managing him for his good, so he is obedient; In the future, the seventh brother will be good to the tiger head, and he will naturally listen to the seventh brother. ”

Wang Qi thought about it, and immediately said proudly: "Speaking of which, my brother and the tiger head are the most compatible, so that our brothers can play together, I'll go and see where that guy hid the sugar bag!" With that, he got up and went out to find the tiger's head and get it.

Dao idiot and Wang Sanlang glanced at each other, and they both smiled.

Although Wang Qi is also the eldest son, he was spoiled by his grandparents when he was a child, and he is more like a child. Although he is a "brother", and he regards Dao Idiot and San Lang as his younger brother in ordinary interactions, but in the eyes of these little brothers, Wang Qi is more like a younger brother and needs to be coaxed.

Hu Tou Zang and Wang Qi were looking for it, and the laughter of the two came from time to time in the courtyard.

Dao idiot and Wang Saburo don't go to join in the fun, talking about family often. Dao Idiot thought that he had troubled Wang Zhen too many times in the past year, and he was a little embarrassed, and he didn't want to trouble him anymore about buying a store, so he asked Rong Niang.

Rong Niang has already reached the marriage, and Xu Qin gave the two aunts and cousins in the capital, and the wedding date is scheduled for next year. Now at home, he learns to cook housework with Wang Yang's side.

Mentioning this, Wang Sanlang showed regret: "My sister and I said in the early years that if my sister marries in Beijing, I will take the national examination and enter Beijing to support my sister." In that way, even if the father is in the field in the future, there will be a mother's family to call the shots for the sister. ”

The idiot said: "I will take the Guozijian exam!" ”

Wang Sanlang showed gratitude: "Erlang ......"

The idiot shook his head and said, "Third brother, don't misunderstand, I'm not for the eldest sister, this is what I have planned for a long time." I heard that the capital is prosperous, and I want to see the world. ”

Wang Sanlang said happily: "No matter what Erlang is for, as long as he can enter Beijing, it is a good thing." Could it be that my sister is really in trouble, and you will still be able to watch from the sidelines? With Erlang here, I'm relieved. Although my sister is so strong, she is a woman in the end. If you marry into someone else's family, you can still ask your uncle and aunt to make decisions if you are wronged; My aunt's family is in-law, but my uncle and aunt are not easy to talk to. ”

The idiot said: "Does the third brother know what kind of shop the eldest sister uses as a dowry?" ”

Wang Sanlang shook his head and said embarrassedly: "I really don't know this. However, most of the shops that my mother married back then will be left to the eldest sister. ”

The idiot said: "The third brother is tired to help me ask the eldest sister, what shop is good, my sister will be out of the cabinet this autumn, and my brother-in-law will study and work in the future, I want to add a shop to her, and increase the income ......"
