(two-three-one) whatever

Zhao Chengcai thought about it, and what Zhang Qingting said also made sense. In order to be shrewd and sophisticated, Master Chen has also taken care of the school before, so he is no stranger. If he is willing to go out of the mountain, then it is easy to say, "Then I will ask him what he means tomorrow!" ”

The two were discussing, but someone from the yamen was sent to spread the words of Mencius and ask Zhao Chengcai to take time to go to the yamen early in the morning.

Isn't Ming'er fifteen? What is this big holiday asking him to do? Could it be that they want to invite the masters of their academy to dinner? With some doubts, Zhao Chengcai went to the academy early the next morning. Zhang Qingting brought his own people, prepared a banquet, went to the horse farm to celebrate the festival with the guys, and hired a car by the way, and dragged all the food for his own disaster relief. When he went to Zhao's house to get food, he left Zhang Luo's Zhao Yulan and others to help.

Seeing that Zhang Qingting did not stay, Zhao Wangshi inevitably felt a little resentful in his heart, and muttered in a low voice, "I know how to run to the racecourse every day, can't I not do it if I don't go for a day?" I don't see anyone who comes to do some work in this Mid-Autumn Festival, just know how to eat ready-made! ”

Zhao Yulan hurriedly pushed her mother in, "Mother, what did you say?" Listen carefully sister-in-law! Is she going to play? She's going to get down to business! She doesn't do anything, can our family have this delicious food and drink? ”

Zhao Wangshi pouted. The face was long, "Just her ability?" Hmph, you girl, your elbow will turn out! You have to remember, it's not her who is alone in letting our family have this delicious food and drink, but also your brother, your brother, and our big guys! ”

Zhao Yulan knew her mother's temper, and she was not a person who could argue, as long as her mother was willing to stop, she only nodded yes.

When the carriage walked out of the distance, Fang Dehai looked at the empty space, and then looked at Zhang Qingting and smiled, "Did you hear that?" The little daughter-in-law who can't eat anything, your mother-in-law has an opinion! ”

During the holiday today, knowing that the Zhang family was troubled and couldn't come empty, he deliberately took Xiaoqing Jixiang to lock the door and come to the racecourse to help.

Zhang Qingting scoffed, "If you are angry with her, you won't be able to live that day!" ”

"Really so generous?" Fang Dehai didn't believe it.

"Don't make fun of me for this big holiday!" Zhang Qingting was not depressed, but she promised Zhao Chengcai, as long as it was not a matter of principle, if Zhao Wang's mouth was broken and she nagged a few words, let her go in and out of her left ear. If it weren't for some trivial things, I wouldn't be able to live that day.

Fang Dehai smiled a little, with a bit of positive color. "It's good if you can really think like this, the daughter-in-law who has been a mother-in-law for many years is inevitably a little picky. Your mother-in-law has never studied, not to mention that this person is old and somewhat verbose, so you young people should take care of it more! Besides, your temper is not what I said, it is indeed arrogant, you coax your mother-in-law with those sweet words that coax me, what is the hurdle that you can't get over? ”

Alas, that has to be coaxed! Zhang Qingting remembered that he coaxed Zhao Wang's family is a chill. Why doesn't she know these truths? It's just that saying and doing are two completely different concepts. No wonder it is often said that Taoists have a scripture that is difficult to read, and when it falls on their heads, they know the sweetness and bitterness!

The racecourse was fine, and he tried his best to greet the guys to eat and drink well, and Zhang Qingting's mood relaxed. The things were distributed to the hired workers, and the servants of their own families were kept and returned to the alley to give them again. They didn't mention the excitement for the time being, but said that Zhao Chengcai went to the yamen early in the morning, he entered the door with the front foot, and Li Hongwen and several other masters arrived with the back foot.

Seeing that everyone was together, the official went in to make a report, and it was not long before that. Mencius smiled and came out with a person, Zhao Chengcai looked surprised, isn't this Master Chen?

Mencius Zhan first greeted everyone for a good holiday, and then took a few seasonal gifts to distribute to everyone, "This is brought by the family in the capital, a few masters teach and educate people in our township, they really work hard, and they are only courteous, and they pay respect!" ”

Everyone thanked them, and Mencius invited everyone to sit down and watch the tea, and then said with a smile, "Please come today, there is one more thing." This official has just looked at the situation of the academy's schedule in the second half of the year, and there are many more people than a while ago. The school must be busy, relying on everyone may be a little difficult, plus the two deans of our academy, Zhao and Li, are about to leave for the capital to study for a few months, and next autumn is the year of Dabi, the two of them must be busy, this is also a major event to win glory for our township, can not be delayed. Therefore, the official specially invited Master Chen to come back to help take care of the affairs in the school, and from the beginning of the school tomorrow, he will officially go to work, what do you think? ”

Ah! Zhao Chengcai and Li Hongwen glanced at each other, and they were overjoyed! Originally, I didn't know how to arrange it well, but I didn't expect Mencius to think so thoughtfully and arrange it so properly, so they didn't just go back to study here. Next year, I will be able to settle down a lot of confidence when I prepare for the exam at home. Naturally, the masters had no opinions, and encouraged the two of them with a smile, and Mencius did not stay long, so he ordered someone to hire a sedan chair and send them home for the festival.

Because there was no one at home, Zhao Chengcai happily went to Zhao's house with gifts. But I didn't expect that as soon as I entered the door, I saw a stranger in the courtyard, who was babbling about what money to give.

Zhao Wang's tiger blocked the road with a tiger face, preventing them from entering the house, and pointed to Liu Fang behind Zhao Chengdong, "If you want someone, just take her away!" Our family is not uncommon! ”

Liu's face turned red with anger, and he pinched Zhao Chengdong hard to make him speak.

Today's holiday, Zhao Chengdong also got a day off and didn't go to the racecourse, but he didn't expect to catch up with such a show, how did he know what to say? It will only repeat, "There is something to say!" ”

Xiaoyu's eyes were sharp, and when she saw that Zhao Chengcai was back, she hurriedly stepped forward and whispered in a low voice, "It's Aunt Liu's family." Ask for money! ”

Zhao Chengcai suddenly understood seven or eight points in his heart, I am afraid that he was fighting the autumn wind from the beginning, so he took the things in his hand to Xiaoyu and collected them, and asked with a calm face, "What is this for?" ”

A middle-aged man stood up, "Who are you?" ”

"I'm Zhao Chengcai, the eldest son of this family, if you have anything to say, just talk to me!"

"That's good! I'm Fang'er's uncle! Your family secretly married our family's Fang'er, so you have to give a dowry! ”

On the other side, a middle-aged mother-in-law jumped out to fight, "The dowry should be given to our family!" Fang'er married into our family. It's the daughter-in-law of our family, and the daughter-in-law has never remarried, and the in-laws have received the dowry! ”

"Ahh Zhao Wang's jumped up and was about to make a noise, Zhao Chengcai felt indecent, stopped his mother, and rushed forward, "Then I'm afraid you are not looking for a place!" ”

"She's all in your house, how can we not find a place? Look at your big house! ”

"And the horse farm! Alley! ”

"That's right! Anyway, you have to give us twenty taels, ah no, fifty taels of silver as a dowry! ”

Zhao Chengcai sneered, and inquired in detail enough, which proved that he was prepared. He wasn't in a hurry, and waited until they were all finished, then he said slowly, "Dowry? Why do you two ask for a dowry in our house? She didn't marry us with three books and six rites, but she was just a concubine of my younger brother, what else do you want! ”

Yes? The crowd looked at each other when they heard this, they only heard that the Liu family had found a good family, so they came over in a hurry to make a windfall, it turned out to be a concubine? thought for a long time, "But even if it's a concubine, you have to be worthy?" ”

This is really thanks to Zhang Qingting, why did she give the silver jewelry to the Liu family so generously? It is to guard against the present day. Zhao Chengcai sneered, "Our family has already given her the worth!" Liu, take out the jewelry you received and show them it! ”

He turned to say, "Our family accepted this concubine, but there is evidence, it is clearly written in black and white, and she herself drew her own handprint, and there are neighbors to testify. If you take it seriously, let the villagers judge it, and your two families drove this orphan and widow out of the house, and almost starved to death! This is also what people do? Although she only has one daughter, she is also your mother-in-law's own blood! Just ignore it, but have the face to come to the door to ask for a dowry? If it is not a great holiday, you will not report it to the officials. I'd like to report to the police! ”

"That's right! Report to the officer! Zhao Wang's family looked at Liu's unpleasant eyes, and wished that there was a reason to drive her away, "If you want money, we don't have any money!" Take the people away. ”

"Get it!" Seeing that they couldn't take advantage, the two families pulled the Liu family and wanted to snatch the silver jewelry in her hand. The appearance of the jewelry can't see the real silver and silver, but it looks thick enough, which can't help but make people red.

Zhao Wang's family was not frightened, he stuffed the bud that had already been scared and cried into Liu's arms, and snatched back the silver jewelry in her hand, this is our family's, even if it is silver, it can't be cheapened for nothing!

Liu's mother-in-law's family is in a hurry, so they are going out of the house, what are they making a fuss? "Whoa! How did you take things away? Did she sleep for your son for nothing? ”

Zhao Chengcai was too vulgar to hear this, and he was embarrassed to accept it. Zhao Wang's eyes widened, and he stepped forward and said, "Then why don't you count, how much rice and grain she, and that little girl have eaten in our house, and how many clothes have been made!" Even if she slept with my son, it was her own volition, and our family didn't catch up with her! ”

The Liu family was anxious and panicked, and really thought that they were going to get her back, whether it was her mother's family or her mother-in-law's family in the past, how could there be anything like the Zhao family? Seeing that Zhao Chengdong couldn't count on it, she was so anxious that she was not afraid of being ugly, and shouted in public, "I'm not leaving!" I'm already pregnant with their baby! ”

This sentence shocked the whole audience, and the first to come back to their senses was Liu's former mother-in-law, who dragged her behind her, like a strange commodity to live in, "Did you hear that?" Even the child is pregnant! If your family doesn't give this dowry today, we'll take her and your grandson away!" ”

Zhao Wangshi was dumbfounded when she heard this, she didn't care about Liu's, but she cared about the child in Liu's belly!

Looking at Zhao Chengcai, he saw that his eldest son's face was not good, and he stepped forward to raise his eyebrows and said two words coldly - "Whatever!" ”

(PS: Why are you so polite?) Don't you want Guizi to add more? Even if the cold is good, you can vote more pink, how much you want to add better children's shoes! Hehe! )
