Chapter 330: Little greed is not only troublesome
"Third brother, that ......"
Wan Feizhi wanted to speak and stopped, but because of Wan Pozi's face, Wan Feizhi still didn't say it.
Wan Lin gently tugged Wan Feizhi's arm, and said softly, "Don't hide it for your mother, I know everything." ”
Wan Lin said to Wan Pozi again: "Mother, do you know that yesterday there was a person I didn't know at all, pulled me and said that he sent me a pair of red corals and asked me to do things for him?" Do you know how I felt when I heard him say this to me? ”
Wan Pozi lowered her eyes and didn't squeak, Old Man Wan couldn't stand it anymore, stood up and said, "Third child, let me tell you, when we had a treat that day, the things sent by those people were almost full of the lower house. Your mother was afraid that you and Xiao Jiu would come back to talk about her, so she put those things in the lower room, the hall room, the stove room and our house. ”
Wan Feizhi couldn't stand it anymore, she hadn't seen Wan Lin's face so ugly, she was a sister who knew that she was distressed, and said in a low voice: "That day, Mrs. Xu and Master Xu sent a house deed, which is the house deed of the third sister-in-law's workshop. ”
"What? Even the deed was delivered? The seriousness on Wan Lin's face was immediately replaced by shock.
Fu Xiaojiu was also shocked by the generosity of the Xu couple.
"W-That's a bit exaggerated, isn't it?" Wan Lin stabilized his mind and asked again: "Did Li Dalong and Ji Sanniang also send a lot of things?" ”
Wan Lin understood Li Dalong and Ji Sanniang, and when he saw the two of them send a set of poetry collections, he felt that acting was not like their style.
Under Wan Lin's questioning, Wan Pozi finally spoke.
"Dalong he sent a jade paperweight, the jade looks emerald green, it looks like a good thing. Sanniang gave her a piece of agarwood, although I don't know what spices are, I also know that a piece of agarwood is hard to find. ”
Wan Pozi always lowered her head when she spoke, not daring to look into Wan Lin's eyes.
Wan Lin repeated: "A jade paperweight, a piece of agarwood, a house deed, a pair of red coral, these things alone are worth thousands of taels!" Mother, do you know how much favor we have to give back to others after receiving these heavy gifts? ”
After Wan Lin finished speaking, Wan Pozi suddenly felt a little frightened.
Fu Xiaojiu knew that Wan Pozi was a person who loved to take advantage of small things, but they had all moved to the city for several years, and Wan Pozi had behaved in the world for so long and had a big difference compared to before, and Fu Xiaojiu thought that Wan Pozi had really changed.
"Mother, it's short!" Fu Xiaojiu said softly.
Wan Pozi hasn't been so panicked yet, and she can't wait to open a crack in the ground and get in.
Old man Wan took a puff of his cigarette pouch and said in a calm voice: "Old woman, you have to admit that what you did this time was wrong, let's give back those things from others!" ”
Wan Pozi grabbed the corner of her clothes, but she was ruthless.
"Okay, I say, I'll tell you how much I've received!"
Wan Pozi has a good memory, and after she checked the gifts according to the etiquette account, she remembered everything.
Wan Pozi said everything, and after listening to Wan Pozi finish the list of gifts, Wan Lin was silent.
Fu Xiaojiu couldn't help but sigh: "It's just a lifter, and he can be so flattered!" If you really become an official with some real power and have a corrupt mind, how many bribes will you have to accept! ”
Wan Lin's eyes looked at the empty space, and he said as if he was talking to himself: "I have heard that some people who accept bribes stick to their own hearts, and those who give bribes start from their family members, so as to achieve the purpose of bribery. In the end, when those officials were questioned, they realized that they had been planted in the hands of their own families! ”
After Wan Lin finished speaking, Wan Pozi's brows jumped suddenly, and then raised his head.
"Son, my mother can't stand you! My mother was blinded by lard for a while, so she did such a wrong thing! Mother promises you, when we go back, I will return all those gifts to them! ”
Wan Lin's face finally softened a little.
"Brother Lin, are you at home?"
Wan Zhang walked into the courtyard at this time and shouted first.
"I'm at home!" Wan Lin's voice was clear, his tone was calm, and there was nothing unusual about it.
Wan Pozi and the others quickly adjusted their expressions, and Wan Lin said to her: "You know that you are wrong, let's go back and talk about this matter." ”
"Brother Lin, I'm really going to be!"
When Wan Zhang entered the house, he couldn't wait to complain about his cold-blooded relatives.
Wan Lin guessed that Wan Zhang must have been angry at Wan Lizheng's house, "You just came back from your uncle's house?" Hasn't Wan Kai come back yet? ”
Wan Zhang and Nian Zhen entered the house and saluted Wan Pozi and Old Man Wan first, and then greeted Fu Xiaojiu and Wan Feizhi, Wan Zhang continued: "Isn't it? This time, I finally realized who my uncle's family was! ”
Wan Zhang carefully talked about Wan Lizheng's doubts and jealousy of him, and then told Zhou Qiaolan that she deliberately looked for Nianzhen's stubble and pushed Nianzhen, and Wan Zhang's anger was still after speaking.
If Nianzhen hadn't thought about the child in her belly, she would have persuaded herself to relax, otherwise she would have been angry twice.
Fu Xiaojiu said indignantly: "Is this Zhou Qiaolan's psychology distorted? If you are not self-motivated, why do you still spill your anger on others? ”
Wan Lin was also angry with Wan Zhang, "Wan Kai's knowledge has always been very ordinary, and Wan Li should understand what kind of virtue his son is." If your own son can't be promoted, how can he still question your knowledge? But Brother Zhang, this is also to blame you for being too inconspicuous, they don't know that your knowledge has long been a day by day. ”
Wan Zhang flicked his sleeves fiercely and said, "I used to think that there were very few things that my relatives would do against me, and they wouldn't happen to me. My heart has been cold since Wan Kai teamed up with An Yushu to frame us, but I still have a glimmer of hope for them, I'm so cheap! ”
When Wan Zhang said this, Mrs. Wan and Old Man Wan both felt heartbroken.
What Wan Da and Wan Er did was disgusting enough, but Wan Lin and Fu Xiaojiu still helped them, this may be an inseparable family relationship, right?
Helpless but reluctant to cut off.
Wan Pozi felt pierced in her heart, and suddenly asked, "Wait! What's the matter with him and An Yushu teaming up to frame you? Third child, Xiao Jiu, why haven't I heard you talk about this? ”
Fu Xiaojiu hurriedly looked at Wan Lin, and Wan Lin remembered that he hadn't told Wan Pozi and them about the chilling thing.
He didn't plan to say it, but now that he mentioned it, he didn't plan to hide it from Wan Pozi anymore.
After all, they are victims, not people who do evil things, and they don't have to cover up their evil deeds, so what can't be said.
Wan Lin adjusted his mood and said as calmly as possible: "Mother, I didn't plan to talk about this, I didn't want to block you." But it has passed, and we have not been affected by anything, so I will tell you what happened. ”
After listening to Wan Lin tell what happened, Wan Pozi was so angry that she jumped to her feet.
"Whew! It's shameless! Is this still a human thing? If they want to harm you, forget it, after all, An Yushu's cheap embryo always disobeys you! But Wan Kai is Wan Zhang's cousin! How different is a cousin from a brother? Wan Zhang's family is just such a child as him, he has grown up with Wan Kai since he was a child, and he is like a brother! Wan Kai can also do it to Wan Zhang, it's just not as good as a beast! ”
Old Man Wan also knocked on the cigarette pouch fiercely, and said angrily: "Such a person is worthy of being a lifter!" We should expose the crime of An Yushu, a scum, and let the imperial court remove his fame! ”
Wan Lin expected that Wan Pozi and Old Man Wan would react like this, and persuaded them: "Dad, mother, don't be impatient, don't be angry." It's gone, and there's no evidence that they're trying to frame us. Fortunately, Brother Zhang and I both successfully lifted, so it can be seen that God still protects us! ”
Wan Pozi was still angry, gritted her teeth and said, "Don't let me see those two beasts in the future!" Otherwise I'll hit them once I see them! ”
Fu Xiaojiu said calmly; "Mother, why should we be like beasts? Let's just ignore them in the future. And we won't have much chance to meet them in the future. ”
Wan Pozi slapped her thigh, "Yes, when the third child and Wan Zhang are admitted to the Jinshi again, it is best to be a champion and a leader, and we will all stay in the capital, far away from those two beasts!" ”
The scolding was almost over, and Mrs. Wan also figured it out, took Nianzhen's hand and said: "Wan Zhang, Nianzhen, in the future, in addition to your own family, you will also treat our family as your home!" You can come whenever you want, and you are always welcome to come to your home! ”
Nianzhen's tears flowed down.
"Oh, why are you crying, kid? Hurry up and wipe away your tears, I heard Xiao Jiu say that you have it again, you can't cry, it's not good for children. ”
Wan Pozi said that she directly wiped her tears with her sleeve.
Wan Pozi's kindness warmed Nianzhen's heart, and she sobbed a few more times and gradually stopped her tears.
Wan Zhang's heart was also warm, and he recognized the Wan Lin family as relatives.
Fu Xiaojiu stepped forward to comfort Nianzhen and told her that the two of them were originally in-laws, a family.
While Wan Pozi and the others were talking to Nianzhen, Wan Lin pulled Wan Zhang aside and asked quietly, "You also held a banquet at Zhongju's house this time, right?" Do you know how many gifts your family has received behind your back? ”
"What?" Wan Chang was stunned.
Wan Lin saw Wan Zhang's stunned appearance, and saw that he didn't seem to think of this, so he asked again: "Didn't those people who went to the banquet give you a gift?" ”
Wan Zhang reacted at this time, "Yes, there are indeed people who come to give gifts when my family holds a banquet, but there are not too many people who give gifts, and they take some not too expensive gifts, so I asked my father and mother to accept them." But...... Why did my father and mother collect how many gifts did they receive behind my back? ”
"I'll tell you......"
Wan Lin whispered in Wan Zhang's ear that Wan Pozi secretly received many heavy gifts behind their backs.
Wan Zhang immediately gasped when he heard this, "Won't it?" Did my father do the same? ”
