The more Tian Shuilan pondered at home, the more she felt that she had been deceived, no matter how she thought about it, this family affair was not cost-effective for her, so she thought about coming to Zeng Rong to make a fuss, it was best to stir up this family affair, and then find an opportunity to sell Zeng Rong.

No matter how bad it is, you can still find a girl to change relatives, it's really not good, and then ask Aunt Wang to contact the half-blind hunter, and it just so happens that the elders in the family still agree.

In this way, Tian Shuilan went to the field to pull Zeng Chengchun directly, and the two met Zeng Guixiang who was coming home from school when they were about to arrive at the academy.

Tian Shuilan is eager to make trouble at the gate of the academy, the bigger the trouble, the better, it is best to let the patriarch or the mountain chief in the academy take Zeng Rong home, if it can make Zeng Guixiang lose face and refuse to study, it will take advantage of her heart.

Therefore, when Tian Shuilan heard Zeng Rong say that she wanted to invite the patriarch, she slapped her hands in approval, and she wished that the patriarch would come to see this scene.

Zeng Rong saw that this trick was not good, so he quickly changed his rhetoric and said to Zeng Chengchun: "Dad, if you are not afraid of affecting the future and reputation of the second brother, you can let your mother make trouble here, I told you the truth, I went to the town to sell medicinal herbs today, but I didn't spend a penny blindly, I learned to embroider handkerchiefs with Granny Liu in the past half a month, thinking about embroidering some handkerchiefs on rainy days or leisure days to save money, I also calculated that it is difficult to earn ten taels of silver just by digging medicinal materials." If you don't believe me, just ask Granny Liu. ”

"Da Chun, Ah Rong is a good boy, with me for half a month, I really worry about how to make money and save money every day, this day I don't see that it rained for a few days in a row and I couldn't go up the mountain without entering, so I hurriedly went into the town to sell medicinal materials for some money and bought ten silk handkerchiefs to embroider, such a good child, you still wronged her so much, it's your fault." Granny Liu said a few fair words.

This will be no better than in the town, everyone is in the same village, even if they say something wrong, they will cause some trouble, and the most important thing is that everyone will not involve Zeng Rong and her, so she will dare to speak.

"That's it, Dad, Wang Yapo's person has a grudge against me because he didn't earn my commission, and my mother felt a loss because she didn't get the twelve taels of silver and lost a person like me. Dad, you can't fall for outsiders. Think about it, if you make such a fuss and spread it, will the reputation of the second brother also be ruined? Zeng Rong once again pointed the finger at Zeng Guixiang.

There is no way, this will weigh the Zeng family on him, and she doesn't want to worry about these things, let alone affect Mrs. Xu's opinion of her because of these.

"Hmph, that's a nice thing to say, so what is this cloth for?" Tian Shuilan snatched the piece of fine white cotton cloth that Zeng Rong was drying outside in her hand with her hands and feet.

"This is what I used to practice embroidering scriptures, I heard the master in the temple say that some pilgrims come to the offering will find someone to embroider the scriptures, and the scriptures of large families are generally embroidered with silk, and the first time I embroidered and couldn't afford to buy silk, I used fine white cotton instead, and the same can be used." Zeng Rong temporarily thought of a rhetoric.

"Ah Rong, when did you learn to read?" Zeng Guixiang realized that something was wrong with this sister.

Before, he couldn't let out a fart after being beaten with a stick, but now he is scolding people one by one, which is just that, he dares to instigate the patriarch to move out of the house, and he will say that he can embroider flowers and write, and he can embroider scriptures, is this still his sister?

"I learned it in this half a month, Mr. Ouyang left me a set of Mengxue books, I learned to memorize, the rest is to practice slowly by myself, if you don't understand, ask the gentleman here, but I first learned to recognize the name of the medicinal herb." After Zeng Rong finished speaking, he went into the house and found the three books, and at the same time took out the books that Zeng Hua had practiced for half a month.

Zeng Guixiang looked at these crooked words, and was about to say something, when he suddenly saw Zeng Rong rushing at him, and hurriedly changed his words and said: "Daddy, I heard that the embroidered scriptures can be sold for a lot of money, you don't understand, don't follow the trouble." ”

"Yes, damn the child, you can return this cloth to Ah Rong." Zeng Chengchun saw that his second son said this, so he hurriedly agreed.

He didn't fully believe his daughter's words, but he understood that the relationship between his daughter and that Mr. Ouyang was by no means ordinary, that is, he would soon have a talented man as his son-in-law.

After thinking about this, he won't have a stiff fight with his daughter because of this little thing.

"In charge, I should give birth next month, not to mention adults, the child should always make a new dress, right?" Tian Shuilan had already fallen in love with this piece of fine white cotton cloth and didn't want to let go.

Zeng Rong had the intention to snatch it back, but when he saw that the other party was a pregnant woman, he stopped thinking about it, but this loss cannot be eaten in vain.

"Mother, you can think about it, if you take this white cloth, you have to reduce two hundred yuan for me, this cloth itself cost me sixty yuan, I don't have the money to buy cloth now, and if I can't afford the cloth, I have to delay my embroidery scriptures, this loss has to be counted here, father, second brother, you all remember, I shouldn't give you ten taels of silver, only nine taels of silver plus eight hundred dollars." Zeng Rong deliberately folded his fingers and counted, and said.

"you, do you hear that?" Zeng Chengchun looked at his mother-in-law.

Tian Shuilan naturally refused to suffer this loss, and was just about to speak, but saw the patriarch coming with his hands behind his back, he was also working in the nearby fields, and he happened to hear the children after school talking about it, so he hurried over.

This time, without waiting for Zeng Rong to speak, Granny Liu learned what happened one by one, and it happened in the town at noon.

"Da Chun, you are also almost forty years old, I won't say anything superfluous, you say it yourself, what should I do?"

"Yes, yes, it's me who is wrong, I'm leaving, I'm leaving." Zeng Chengchun said busily.

"You haven't said yet, what's wrong with you?" The patriarch didn't plan to let go of these two in-laws easily.

"Wrong, the fault is that you shouldn't listen to women, you shouldn't doubt your children, and you shouldn't come to the academy to make trouble." Zeng Chengchun hung his head with shame on his face.

Tian Shuilan wanted to defend herself a few words, but just about to speak, she saw her man glaring at her, "You shut up, return the cloth in your hand to Ah Rong first." ”

Tian Shuilan muttered, but she also sent the cloth to Zeng Rong in an orderly manner.

There was no way, her own man didn't stand by her side, and the stinky girl had the support of the patriarch, so she had to take a step back.

"Remember, if you let me know that you came to the academy to make trouble in the future, don't read this book." The patriarch saw the unwillingness in Tian Shuilan's eyes, and said something to scare Zeng Chengchun.

Sure enough, when Zeng Guixiang heard this, he hurriedly pulled his father to apologize to the patriarch and admit his mistake, and the patriarch glared at the father and son, and left with his hands behind his back.
