(332) Forced marriage

Of course, Zhao Chengcai knew that Zhang Qingting cared, and he also inquired carefully, "As soon as the Xue family's case went up, I heard that the officials in the entire area were involved in a lot of this limelight, and no one dared to come to our place to be officials." Later, I heard that the officials were from other places and recommended a few ordinary and honest people, and the emperor personally pointed out an adult surnamed Yan to come over. is already quite old, but the most god of solving the case has been serving in the most rampant bandits in the south, although the official is not big, but it is very famous, people say that Yan Qingtian came to his hometown is not too far from our Zalanbao, it is estimated that the emperor also has mercy, just wait for us to finish here and return to his hometown. ”

Zhang Qingting nodded, "It's okay to do anything else, as long as it's a good official," she chuckled suddenly, "It's just that the people here are simple, but there are no cases to solve, I'm afraid he will have to be idle in the future." ”

Asked about Zhang Facai and Zhang Xiaodie's situation in Yonghe Town, Zhao Chengcai picked up his thumb, "Don't say it, my father-in-law and Xiaodie are doing a really good job there, even Brother Gao praises them, especially Xiaodie, she can really endure hardships, and she is also spicy, she is a little bit of what you mean, she is now pretending to be a boy all day long, running around against the big sun, directing workers to make shops, and following Brother Gao to learn to do things, everyone is black and thin, you don't know, Hongwen was startled when he saw her, and he almost didn't recognize it"

He laughed as he spoke, "Then he asked if he could get two people from his house to serve him, and I thought it was upset, but Fluttershy immediately drove us away and said, 'Do you know how much it costs to hire one person?' My eldest sister sent me to work, and you didn't come to be the eldest lady of the daughter, you sent people, and I still have to take care of them, so you can't make a little mess for me? 'It makes Hongwen feel emotional and helpless, which shows that this girl has really grown up"

Zhang Qingting was happy when he heard this, "That girl is really so promising?" ”

"Is that still fake? Father-in-law is also very hard, he is very old and illiterate, and he has to help Fluttershy keep her accounts. It's interesting that he has a small notebook with him now, which is full of all kinds of symbols, and he also taught me to see, but it's a pity that you are only a shallow learner, and you really can't understand his old man's esoteric heavenly book."

Zhang Qingting smiled and said angrily, "Are you so poisonous to your father-in-law?" ”

But knowing that they were all over there, she was relieved. This ready-to-wear shop will be the foundation of the Zhang family in the future, and she believes that as long as her family works together, they will be able to earn their own family business

During the Dragon Boat Festival, of course, the two of them returned to Zhao's house for the festival. Zhang Luoche said that his family is not complete, so he just lived casually at home. In this way, Zhang Qingting only needed a table of banquets and asked Fang Mingzhu to take him to the horse farm to be lively.

As soon as Zhao Chengcai entered the house here, Zhao Chengdong happily hugged his son and asked his eldest brother to give him a name, "Brother, you are good at learning, and I am waiting for you to come back to get a good name."

Zhao Chengcai glanced at his younger brother, he was really ignorant and deliberately said in front of Liu Fang, "It's not waiting for the family tree, what are you panicking about?" The child gets up too early to correct his name, and he can't hold it down, so let's call it a small name first, and then talk about this big name, and then talk about it when your daughter-in-law enters the door."

These words were like a basin of cold water poured on the head, but Liu Fang, who was lying on the bed and thought he was the greatest hero of the Zhao family, was half angry

But Zhao Chengcai is not wrong, the wife did not enter the door, and the son born to the concubine can't be on the family tree at all, so why do you want a correct name so early? What do you want to show off?

Liu Fang knew that she was weak now, so she gritted her teeth and didn't say anything. But when Ming'er was in the third dynasty, she secretly gritted her teeth, and when my mother's family came, she wanted your family to look good

There was nothing to do here, and although Zhao Wang's new grandson was very happy, because it was from Liu Fang, he would not get carried away. She only complained in front of her eldest son, that is, she thought that she, as a mother-in-law, actually had to personally serve her younger son's concubine, which was a bit of a loss of face.

Zhao Chengcai heard Zhang Qingting say that she came to ask for Xiaoyu, and understood that her mother was an old problem, she wanted someone to serve her, but she was reluctant to spend money, most likely because she wanted to take the initiative to open this mouth, and it was best to ask someone to send it to her. immediately laughed and deliberately shouted loudly, "Chengdong, did you hear that?" You can't patronize your son as a father, no matter how hard your mother is, people say that raising children knows your parents' kindness, is it possible that you have worked hard for your father and mother for a lifetime, and you want your father and mother to continue to work hard for your children? ”

Zhao Chengdong's face was so red that he choked, and said hesitantly, "I said that it was my mother to invite someone to come, but my mother herself was not happy."

Zhao Chengcai inevitably has three points of resentment in his heart, oh, you will feel distressed when you spend your youngest son's money, and you will not feel distressed when you spend my money? sang even more high-pitched, "What kind of character is my mother, don't you know it?" Wouldn't you just invite people back? It's just a month's work, such an idea of small money, do you want me to come out? ”

Zhao Wang's eldest son explained his thoughts, and his old face was inevitably a little red. But he said in his heart, can you compare with your brother? How much money does your brother have, and how much money does your daughter-in-law have? Really, I have a daughter-in-law who takes care of my small family

"How can it" Zhao Chengdong said to his brother with a red face and a thick neck, and immediately said, "Mother, don't fight, I'll go and invite someone back tomorrow"

Zhang Qingting didn't say a word, only laughed secretly in his heart. Thinking about it, I was a little helpless, and suddenly thought of a question, is it true that parents are born to be small? She must not be like this in the future, if this brother is not in harmony, the parents' usual attitude is also likely to be problematic

On the sixth day of the first month, it is the joy of Zhao Chengdong's eldest son pumpkin and the full moon of the three dynasties.

Pumpkin is a good thing for the poor, it can usually be used as a vegetable, if there is no food and can be used as rice, cooking rice and porridge can be used, this thing is also easy to plant, it is very in line with the concept of Zhao Wang, and the nickname must be vulgar to be able to suppress. Everyone also thought it was funny, so they called the pumpkin pumpkin open.

But when the people from the Liu family came, they asked, "What about the big name?" ”

Liu Fang pursed his mouth and said angrily, "His uncle said, this kid can't go to the family tree, what do you want a big name for?" ”

She deliberately misinterpreted Zhao Chengcai's words, which made the Liu family immediately furious, even if the child born to the concubine was not so bullying, how could a son not be on the family tree?

Liu Fang whispered a few words in her mother's ear, and Aunt Liu rushed to Zhao Wang's family with her grandson in her arms, "Mother-in-law, why did the child's uncle say that pumpkins can't be on the family tree?" Isn't this your Zhao family's baby? What about his uncle? Let him tell me, where is the reason? ”

Zhao Wang's family originally expected that the Liu family would come with three or five people today, but they never thought that their family had more than 20 people, all of whom had seven aunts and eight aunts, and even the married daughters had their husbands and children, and they only carried a total of forty eggs, two old hens and two catties of brown sugar, which was not enough to greet so many people

As soon as this group of people entered the door, they began to point fingers at their house, and when they saw something delicious, they stuffed it into their mouths, and when they saw something useful, they put it in their arms. If they wanted to ask about it, they also said with old faces that they were just looking, and after putting it down, they took it away while Zhao Wang was not paying attention.

Zhao is an honest person, and he is not good at caring about these things with others, but he can make Zhao Wang very angry, although they are not too valuable things, but she is not happy to give them to these people

I was not angry in my heart, but when Liu's mother asked, she sneered, "My son is the most sensible, and he is not wrong, this Chengdong did not marry a wife, where did the child come from on the family tree?" ”

Aunt Liu greeted, "Everyone came over to listen to what their mother-in-law said, our Fang'er gave birth to such a good big fat boy for their family, but they can't even earn a name if they are serious." Chengdong, you are the child's father, don't you feel sorry for your son? ”

Zhao Chengdong had a headache, so many people came for nothing, and the banquet sent by his sister-in-law was obviously not enough to eat, and the helper who patted his chest and agreed to invite him yesterday did not invite. Looking for his mother to ask for money to buy a table of banquets in private, Zhao Wangshi pointed to those gifts and asked him, "What do you think these things are worth for a banquet?" Honestly go to the back vegetable field to pick some vegetables, just fool around and pass, what are you spending all that unjust money for? ”

Zhao Chengdong is really called every day now, and the earth is not so big, except for the time when he was in Juewei Zhai, how could he have worked in the kitchen for a few days? But now that his father and mother want to greet guests, he can't spare his hands to help him, he has to work alone in the kitchen, he was counting on Zhao Yulan to come to help, but Zhao Yulan saw that her brother and sister-in-law didn't go, and her relationship with the Liu family was mediocre, so it was boring to come alone, so she didn't come.

He's busy here, and he's bothering him about this, what can he say? It's nothing more than just a few casual sentences, "The child is still young, it's easy to raise a small name, and I'll talk about it when I'm older" and the like.

Aunt Liu was dissatisfied, and said what Liu Fang told her, "Chengdong, you are not a small boss." It's not that I'm praising my daughter, Fang'er gave birth to a big fat boy when she entered the door, which shows that she is a husband Wangzi's life, so you can carry her to make the main house, and you should settle down to live your life earlier, don't you? ”

The Liu family hulala all came up, and they echoed, "It's just Chengdong, you come over and say something, let's make up a Geng post, and we will do it."

"Since you want to do it, you have to have a lively wine and treat."

"Of course, it's a building, and our family doesn't want much dowry, knowing that you don't have much cash in your hands, just fold us some of the horse farm and alley."

……

Zhao Chengdong was surrounded by a group, so anxious that his face was red and his neck was thick, but he couldn't say a word. Not to mention the bride price, it is impossible to marry Liu Fang as a wife
