Chapter Seventy-Four: The Old Lady of the Ruined Hou Mansion (8)
After a while, Wen Qilian heard a scream from inside the house, ahhhh
The outsiders who listened were worried, for fear that the old lady would really hurt the Hou Ye in a fit of anger.
At this time, the arbor in the house is not reluctant, the original desire to stay is to make a lot of money, but making money is not to say that you can earn if you want to, not to mention that as long as you have the ability and technology, you can make money safely, the legal society is indispensable to all kinds of means, not to mention that today's people-ruled feudal society, in this era, if you really become the richest man in any bright light, it is not making money, that is making money on it, so the most important thing at present is not how to make more money, but how to let the family learn to keep a low profile.
Everyone else is fine, whether it is a daughter-in-law or a grandchild, it is no problem, it is not a person with a big mouth, let alone a person who goes out to drink flower wine, only Wen Qilian's son is the biggest problem, originally Qiao Mu really didn't think of her son's problem for a while, but this morning, Steward Min replied to the rumors outside, and then returned to where the rumors came from, Qiao Mu knew that before making money, she had to find a way to make her son's mouth tighter, otherwise it would be in vain to think about how much money she made.
So, isn't this just education?
As soon as he came in with a rattan whip in his hand, he picked out Wen Qilian's painful and non-nerve-free places to beat, that is, those places where the meat was thicker, such as the buttocks, such as the thighs and heels, and important positions such as the head could not be beaten, but the thick parts of the meat could be beaten a few times, no problem, of course, what we are talking about here is a few beatings, not a fatal beating, even if the flesh on the body is thick, it will kill if you hit it to death.
Because in addition to fatal injuries and death, people may also die of pain, even if every place is not a fatal injury, as long as you hit enough, it can also make people die of pain, so, educate children to pay attention to the technique, those who have not studied medicine, a little three or five strokes, let the child suffer a lesson, but the arbor is different, not to mention that she is a medical master, she is not educating a child, is an adult, and is about to enter the middle and old healthy adult man.
It's okay to play a few more hits.
After fighting for a while, when Wen Qilian was almost unable to scream, Qiao Mu was also a little tired, gasped twice, and said:
"Do you know why I hit you?"
"No...... I don't know...... Ahhh I know, whether it's drinking, or visiting the green house......"
Wen Qilian just wanted to say that he didn't know, but when he saw the rattan whip that Qiao Mu lifted again, he was so frightened that he hurriedly called out again and again, and opened his mouth to think of two possibilities.
Qiao Mu rolled his eyes, put down the rattan whip he was holding in his hand, took a breath, found a stool and sat down, and raised his hand to hate iron and steel:
"Last night, what did you talk nonsense in the Qinglou, and early this morning, Steward Min told me that it was rumored outside that our family's treasury was no less than one million silver, and I don't know how thick the family is!
Come, tell me what you said? ”
"Huh?"
Wen Qilian was still a little confused, he was poured too much wine last night, and it was the two subordinates who went with him who finally moved him back, so at this time, not only did he know nothing about the situation outside, but he also didn't remember exactly what happened last night, so he could only be silent.
Qiao Mu saw that he was still confused, and couldn't help but pick up the old tea on the table and splash it at him, and then repeated the question again.
At this moment, Wen Qilian finally sobered up.
After shivering and feeling the pain all over his body, he hurriedly began to recall the events of last night, and explained that he searched his stomach and scraped his stomach:
"Mother, I, I didn't say that our family has millions of cash in the treasury, I really never said such a thing, yesterday, yesterday I just drank and listened to songs over there with a few friends, and I seemed to be a little confused when I drank, and then someone asked me how my family was divided, and I told him about the situation of the separation.
I didn't say anything else.
The rumors out there really have nothing to do with me. ”
"Oh, is it?
You're so clever and witty.
From today on, you will think about it behind closed doors in the house, and if you dare to go out, you will break your legs, anyway, it will hurt your muscles and bones for a hundred days, and you will only fight three times a year, and I still have this energy.
Don't think I'm joking with you, if you don't believe that you are ruthless, you can try it, as for when you can go out, wait for the day when it is not rumored that there are millions of assets in our treasury, and then we will talk about it.
Forget it, let's come for a hundred days first! ”
After Qiao Mu finished speaking, he raised his hand and picked up the bench on the side, stepped forward in two steps, and discounted Wen Qilian's left leg calf bone, although it is said that discounting his leg now may not make him obedient, but it can relieve his anger, fractures are only, some methods can make him return to normal, not to mention one fracture, that is, ten or a hundred fractures, becoming a comminuted fracture, and some methods can return to normal.
Don't blame Qiao Mu for being ruthless, when the family's mouth is not strict, it is a big mistake, the king does not lose his country, the minister does not lose his body, and a few things are not secret, it will be harmful, last year's natural disaster, the treasury came out of a huge amount of disaster relief, and now the empty estimate can run away, and the summer tax has not been collected, at this time, the family has money, is not poking the heart of the household department and the emperor?
Don't think that the emperor is a magnanimous person, I can't make up 100,000 taels of silver in the treasury here, and there are rumors everywhere that your family has a million dollars in cash, so if the emperor is in a good mood, will he be dissatisfied?
It's not just the poor who hate the rich!
Besides, the poor hate the rich, at most they say two words in private, and the most afraid is that those in power hate the rich, so it is not a matter of saying two words, and if you are not careful, you may go bankrupt and your family will be ruined.
It was because Qiao Mu knew this situation and knew some of the thoughts of the rulers that he was so angry and wanted to kill him.
I don't know how to calm down this turmoil, this kind of rumor is not something that can be explained clearly in three or two sentences, not to mention that there is no way to explain it, how to explain it, saying that my family doesn't have so much money, it's all rumors, or let the household department send someone to check how much money our family has, it doesn't exist.
The more you explain, the more you can't explain it.
We can only look back and wait and see what happens, so as to respond to all changes without change, and then adapt to them when the time comes.
Besides, Xiao Shi outside, after hearing another great scream in the house, finally couldn't bear the worry in his heart, hurriedly pushed open the door despite the obstruction, and walked quickly to Wen Qilian's side worriedly, anxiously asking what was wrong?
