Chapter 129: The Rich
Today's Zhao Mansion is particularly lively, it has been deserted for a long time, and it is finally noisy tonight.
Liu Ming and his party had more than 50 people, and they were women who were captured by the mountain bandits who surrendered.
There were originally more than 40 mountain bandits who surrendered, plus those in the mountain bandits' lair, but Liu Ming asked those hard-working women to pick out the people who did a lot of evil among the mountain bandits, and they liked to commit violence to them the most, and there were only sixteen left.
In fact, it was Yan Ran who killed most of them and left one for Zhao Tong.
Liu Ming wanted to give those hard-working people a sum of money to let them go home, but as a result, they begged Liu Ming to take them in, saying that they were innocent and could not return home.
Liu Ming thought of the two who committed suicide before, understood everything, and promised to take them in.
Because there were too many people, the speed of the journey slowed down, and I originally arrived before noon, but it was forced to delay until the evening.
At the dinner, the old lady asked kindly, "Child, how have you been doing all these years?" ”
"It's very good, with the princess taking care of them, they don't lack anything."
The old lady looked up at the princess standing behind Liu Ming, looked at her former sister, and said gratefully: "Old sister, I have suffered you all these years, and our Zhao family owes you!" ”
"Madam, this is all my own volition, and it is I who owe the Zhao family and the young master.
Because of the young master, our family lives a prosperous life, our children and grandchildren can go to school, have new clothes to change, and learn art from others. ”
Wang Po is a grateful person, and the Zhao family and Liu Ming really don't owe her anything.
"Good sister, from now on, don't mention what your family lacks!"
The old lady made a promise.
"Grandparents, I want to change my surname to my mother's surname Zhao."
Liu Ming, no, it's Zhao Ming, he told the two old men his thoughts.
The old lady said eagerly: "Child, what you say is serious, don't fool me, an old man." ”
The old lady sneered: "You bad old man, what do you have to deceive. ”
Old lady Zhao: I can't afford to mess with my wife, so forget it.
Zhao Ming said truthfully: "Of course it's serious, and I've been kicked out, and I won't go back." ”
The old lady was excited, and took advantage of the wine to say: "Okay, I will bring the family tree tomorrow and write Zhao Ming on it, which can be regarded as recognizing the ancestors and returning to the ancestors, and from then on the two of us will be a family." ”
The old lady scolded: "Ming'er and I are a family, you bad old man drank too much and talked nonsense." ”
Zhao Ming completely understood that in the Zhao Mansion, who was the real master was her grandmother.
Mr. and Mrs. Zhao were already cordial to Zhao Ming, and when Zhao Ming changed back to his mother's surname, they became even more enthusiastic.
"Ming'er, you brought a few maids, if there are few, grandma will arrange it for you."
"I only have one maid, I'm drunk and I'm lying in bed now."
"What's the only one? And still drunk? Grandma give twelve, so that they can serve you well. ”
The old lady had a bad first impression of Qing'er, thinking that Qing'er was an incompetent maid, and she would definitely not be able to take care of Zhao Ming in the future.
Zhao Ming complained in his heart, twelve maids, grandma, did you arrange half of the maids in the house for me?
Wang Po proposed: "Madam, the young master is an independent person, he likes to be pure, and he doesn't like too many maids, five or six are enough." ”
"Okay, it's just six, if you don't like it Ming'er, grandma will change it for you."
Zhao Ming: "......"
I haven't agreed to anything, but my grandmother and the princess have discussed it, and six is still too much.
Zhao Ming looked at his grandfather on the side, smiling bitterly at each other.
Sometimes, some kindness cannot be refused, and refusing may chill the other party.
The old lady asked, "Ming'er, what are you going to do in the future?" ”
"I'm going to buy a mountain, buy a Zhuangzi, open a restaurant in the city, build a shop, and finally get some industry."
Zhao Ming was very excited, he could finally show his strength and develop farming in a low-key manner.
Even if he doesn't have a golden finger, he can be rich for a lifetime.
The old lady said heroically: "Ming'er, what kind of money to spend and what to do, our Zhao family has mountains, two tea mountains, one is Chai Mountain, and there are six Zhuangzi outside the city."
There are restaurants, grain stores, cloth shops, and pawnshops in the city, and there are also shops in Jinyang, what do you want, tell grandma, grandma is yours. ”
Zhao Ming was shocked, thinking that he was very rich, but in comparison, he was actually a poor man.
"Grandpa, our family is so rich?"
"Your grandmother is amazing, she has the Tao, and the family business will be bigger, otherwise I will be afraid of her."
The old lady snorted coldly: "Old man", the old lady didn't dare to speak.
"Ming'er, or I'll let you play with Chaishan and the two nearby Zhuangzi, if you lose your grandmother, you will make it all Liu Ming."
"Grandma, how embarrassing is this, I'll buy it myself."
The old lady smiled and said, "What's the excuse, grandma's is yours." ”
Rich people who are evil, but it is themselves who are rich, and everything is good.
Zhao Ming still accepted his grandmother's kindness, and then added two Zhuangzi and a Chai Mountain to his name.
The old lady asked anxiously: "By the way, Ming'er, I heard that when you came, you met a mountain bandit, did you get hurt anywhere?" ”
"It's okay, with Uncle Yan here, the mountain bandits can't get close to me at all, but let me make a small fortune."
"Ming'er, how do you deal with those people, those women are still simple, but there are more than ten mountain bandits, if you are dissatisfied."
The old lady was reminding Zhao Ming because she was not worried about those mountain bandits.
"Grandma, don't worry, as long as Uncle Yan is here, those mountain bandits will be honest."
After all, no one wants to die, and when they think that their heads will be pierced by a knife, where will the mountain bandits have any careful thoughts, is it not good to live?
The old lady also said: "Madam, don't worry, that man is really capable, and those mountain bandits look at him differently." ”
At night, I felt like my head hurt and slept in an unfamiliar bed.
I didn't drink so much if I knew it earlier, and now my brain is a little dizzy.
There was a sound of footsteps outside the house, and I became vigilant, after all, I was in a strange place now, and the young master and the princess were not there.
I became more and more nervous, and the man pushed the door in, and I realized that it was Wang Po, who was carrying a food box.
"Girl, how do you feel when you wake up?"
"Mother-in-law, I still have a little headache now, are we here? Where is the young master? ”
Wang Po said angrily: "Who wants to drink the whole bottle, who is to blame for the headache now, we have arrived, the young master has fallen asleep after a tired day."
Girl, are you hungry, there are pastries in the food box, and some food, bring them to eat yourself. ”
Hearing Wang Po say this, I was really hungry, and because I was drunk, I didn't have lunch to eat.
Prompted by a great hunger, I devoured the food in the food box.
Wang Po looked at the appearance of a mouthful of oil, as if she was smiling.
