The group went to the street, Zhang Qingting took the excuse to pick a dowry for Zhang Xiaodie, and pushed his sister-in-law to He Yutang with a smile, "Brother He, I know that you men's families are impatient to look at these women's things." Yulian is familiar with the capital, so I'll accompany you to the harness shop and bookstore, I can buy a lot of good things there last time."

He Yutang was naturally willing, thinking that some women wanted to buy things that it was inconvenient for them men to watch from the side, so he confessed, "Then forgive me for being rude." Only Miss Zhao doesn't have to accompany me, I'll just inquire myself."

"That's not good" Zhang Qingting was sure to ask his sister-in-law to accompany him, but the reason he found was very decent, "We are in Beijing to take care of you, and when we arrive in the capital, won't we be allowed to make it convenient for you?" Although this sister of my family doesn't say how good her vision can help you, after all, she has also done things under me, and it is okay to give you more or less staff officers. If you don't, you're looking down on people."

"How dare you," He Yutang said embarrassedly.

"Brother He, then please come here" Zhao Yulian's ears were already red, and she guessed her sister-in-law's intentions, but she generously invited He Yutang to go out.

Seeing her calm, it also made He Yutang a lot more accommodating. This girl had seen her several times in Zaranburg, and her impression was very good. And such a beautiful girl took the initiative to invite herself, so no matter how coy she was, she couldn't help but look inflexible.

"Then I'll go too," Niu Dewang happily wanted to join in the fun. He was on vacation because the New Year was approaching, so he also came out to play with him. Seeing that my sister was gone, I was about to follow.

But how inconvenient is it for you to go? Zhang Qingting immediately stopped this blind little one, "You just follow me, Niu'er likes to listen to the little cousin's storytelling, doesn't she?" ”

Xiao Xiniu looked at her mother without blinking when she lied with the same big eyes, and she whined twice to express her curiosity, what is storytelling? People can't even understand the words, where do they still understand that thing?

But Zhang Qingting's words Niu Dewang loves to listen to him, although he understands a lot of things, but after all, children are born to tease the fragrant and soft little doll, so he happily stayed.

Zhang Qingting was proud in his heart, and immediately handed over his daughter to Niu Dewang, while listening to Xiaopang telling the story to Xiao Xiniu seriously, and at the same time buying a dowry for his sister with peace of mind. Her wedding in the past was not decent, and she was determined to buy it for her only sister, so that Zhang Xiaodie could marry into the Li family, which was also to make up for her regrets back then.

Over there, Zhao Chengcai and Du Yuhan went to the Ministry of Rites to register their names, and then inquired about going to the hospital.

When the person in charge of registration heard it, he kindly reminded him, "There are many people from all over the country, and the courtyard is too busy, so I set this time before the big exam, and the altar will be opened every five or ten days, and there will be two days to get it." You don't have to make an empty trip today. If you want to visit the same year, why don't you go to your guild halls in various places first, if you don't know where it is, go to the Golden Cicada Pavilion next to the courtyard and inquire about it."

The two thanked each other and quickly found the Golden Cicada Pavilion.

This inn will do business, because it is close to the courtyard, it took this name, one has a gold list nomination, two take a blockbuster meaning, the scholars are more willing to come and live in the year of the big competition, this number of people, the probability of naturally producing the champion and the jinshi is more, and the people who have won the fame are more, which in turn brings more prosperity to the inn's business.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw that the four walls were covered with ink treasures of people who had lived here in the past and gained fame. In and out, all the people who came and went were wearing Confucian clothes and carrying scarves. On a huge screen in the hall, there are pieces of red paper cut up, with the names of local associations and the corresponding room numbers written on them. There are a few who don't live in our store and stay elsewhere, and they have also listed them one by one, but they are placed below. A small gesture of effort, but it provides great convenience for the people who come to stay and inquire, and also drives the popularity of the store. Even if you don't live in the store, you can have a meal and drink a pot of tea.

Zhao Chengcai praised it in his heart, and went back to tell Zhang Qingting about it, this business, all in one, it's always right to have more good points.

Went up to check, Zaranburg's hometown association happened to be here, the two found the room, but saw a lot of familiar faces, other places to meet old acquaintances, of course everyone is warm. But there are many people who are light, and when they talk deeply, it is easy to make some awkward noises through discussions.

Zhao Chengcai didn't like this habit very much, and after sitting for a while, he saw that the topic was a little biased, so he planned to leave and go to visit Lou and Meng. Du Yuhan is actually very simple, and he is not good at arguing with others, and his uncle told him to follow Zhao Chengcai in everything, so he also came out.

Zhao Chengcai took him, feeling a little like an elder brother with a younger brother, quite a sense of protection. Thinking about his own brother for a while, I don't know what it has become at home, and I sigh in my heart. He knew in his heart that none of the family property that Cheng Dong got now was earned by himself, and he would not know how to cherish it at all.

And what worries him even more is Zhao Wang's family, don't toss all the money in your hand. What else would she do?

Zhao Chengcai's worries are not superfluous, Zhao Wang's family is now worried

Seeing the winter solstice, every household has begun to marinate fish and meat, and of course Zhao Wang's family has to take action. The money in her hand was spent for Zhao Chengdong, but she was not in a hurry. Early this morning, I packed up and went to the yamen. Don't forget, she also has the county subsidy of the eldest son on the fifth day of the month

"That money is not five, it has risen to two taels of silver" The master in charge of the money told Zhao Wang with a smile a good news, and then told her a bad news, "But the money has been received"

Zhao Wang's empty joy changed, and his face changed, "Who got it?" ”

"Your in-laws, it should be said that it was the former in-laws, Zhang Facai Zhang."

Zhao Wang's family was angry, "He has nothing to do with our family anymore, why should he get it?" ”

The master looked at her in surprise, "Why don't you know?" It was Chengcai who personally changed it before leaving, and gave this monthly money to the Zhang family, saying that his father-in-law and mother-in-law had always taken care of him a lot, and now although he is divorced, he has never honored the two elders, and this money is his pension money. ”

For a while, I thought of the rumors circulating in the market that Zhao Wang's family split up favoring children and making trouble, and even forced his daughter-in-law to leave, and thought that most of it was true, and said with some disdain, "Zhao Juren is still conscientious, but he is much better than some people who only know how to take and don't know how to return, do you say yes?" ”

The master looked at her with ulterior motives, looked at Zhao Wang's old face a little unbearable, and when he returned home, he sulked, thinking about it, and complaining honestly to Zhao.

But when Zhao honestly heard it, he said that she was not sensible, "Chengcai is right to do this, he has lived there for a few years, and he has always been a family member of the family who cooks and washes, boils tea and hands water." It's only two taels of silver a month, how much is it in a year? Before he left, he left us a whole tael and that money wasn't enough for you? I'm not going to fight for that thing."

Zhao Wang's family hasn't told his wife that the one or two have been divided, although he is angry that Da'er changed the monthly money without asking her, but when he thinks about it, this is not a big deal, just go back to Chengdong and get some.

She thought about it well, and made a nice excuse before going out, "I'll go to Chengdong's house to see, they will live by themselves for the first time, in case there is anything that won't, I can also teach a little"

"Don't worry about it, it's too much for the children to dislike" Zhao Laoshi disagreed very much, muttered a few words, saw that she didn't listen, and couldn't do it, still bowed his head and tended to his chicken, and picked up a fat hen for a while to weigh it, "Ming'er, I'll send a few to my in-laws' house, so as to save them money and money"

As soon as Zhao Wangshi heard that this was a good idea, he grabbed the fattest two and tied them with red cloth strips and carried them upside down, "Then I will also send two to Chengdong."

Seeing her ride a donkey and leave, Zhao Laoshi was so angry that he stared at him. Although he doesn't care much, he also remembers that the little boy hasn't taken a single hair back since the separation, what is the state of this, I don't know what it is? But this wife still doesn't know how much to take care of them, and she will come back after taking care of it. It's been so many days, and I haven't seen Zhao Chengdong come home to take a look, so I don't think I'm willing to take care of them. This wife is still obsessed, and she is in a hurry to send benefits to others

Zhao Laoshi thought about the words that Da'er confessed before leaving, and also sulked, and then looked at the chicken underground, afraid that Zhao Wang's second time would be gone, he simply left a few to eat by himself, and left the chicken coop in full load, took a flat shoulder, and sent it all to the Zhang family

Zhao Wang went out, thinking that Zhao Chengdong should be in his horse breeding field at this time, so he drove the donkey there. But when I got there, I saw that there was only a young man sleeping next to the stove, and Zhao Chengdong was nowhere to be seen.

Zhao Wang's family was in a hurry at the moment, and when she looked around, she found that there were a few fewer horses, and the grain was not neat, all mixed with sand, so angry that she was about to beat and scold the young man.

That young man was the cousin of the Liu family, and he was woken up for no reason, "Which crazy woman are you?" What are you doing here? Get out of here, beware I'll beat you"

Zhao Wang's family couldn't tell this young man clearly, so he turned his head and hurriedly drove the little donkey to run fast, and arrived at Zhao Chengdong's house. But I saw that it was very lively here, the big fish and big meat piled up the New Year's goods in a yard, the two little girls who were born were cleaning up, and Yang Liu and Liu Fang and her mother also came over with baskets.

What are you here for? Is it? When Zhao Wangshi saw it, he felt distressed as if he had taken his own things, and his brows furrowed deeply.

(The two words of the ticket are concise and powerful, expressing the mood of the little happy girl.) ）
