That night, Yan Bozhai sent someone to send a letter to Meng Zhan. Two for two, fair and reasonable. Change it or not, it's up to you.
As soon as Zhang Qingting heard this, he knew that it should be He Yutang and Zhao Yulian who were replaced. asked Meng Zhan, "With these porcelain jars, can you exchange them for Zhao Chengcai?" ”
This was bought with Qiu Sheng for 1,000 taels of silver, and it was the porcelain jars with the seal of Yanwangfu that Yan Bozhai smashed that day. found a skilled craftsman for Qiu Sheng, and all of them were repaired and restored.
Meng Zhan looked at it but shook his head, "At most, this can only prove that he kept forbidden objects privately, and it is not a particularly serious crime." Used to exchange hostages, I'm afraid it won't threaten him. ”
Zhang Qingting couldn't hide his disappointment, but Yan Bo thought of something, "Since he still has the things of King Yan's Mansion in his hands, will he hide people in King Yan's abandoned mansion?" I remember he seized it. If we can surprise him by surprise, maybe we will be able to get the stolen goods."
This is a good idea, Meng Zhan thinks it is feasible, but to do so, it will require the power of the government. This is contrary to Meng Shangde's intentions, and if it wants to operate, it has to be arranged again.
"Let's wait for tomorrow to change people, and then we can say that after all, we can come back, and there will be one less to save."
Everyone agrees with this, Zhang Qingting is careful, and he specially went to Jishitang to invite a doctor back, for fear that there will be some injuries and can be treated in time.
After discussing the matter, Meng Zhan exchanged glances with Yan Bo, and whispered to the side, "I've seen that person." ”
"How?"
Meng Zhan shook his head, "I haven't seen her in person, I only found a portrait of her, and it is indeed somewhat similar." But there's one more thing, I'm afraid you don't know, right? He leaned over Yan Bo's ear and whispered.
Yan Bo was stunned for a moment and thought for a while, "Then ...... the two of them?"
"I don't know." Meng Zhan shrugged slightly, "This matter is widely implicated, I'm afraid it is beyond your control." I'll tell you this so that you have a bottom in your heart, lest something go wrong with me, and no one else knows. ”
Yan Bo became vigilant, "What will happen to you?" ”
Meng Zhan smiled, "I'm just taking precautions, there will be unforeseen circumstances on this day, who knows" He suddenly sighed, looking at Yan Bo's eyes with a touch of old friendship, "If you want to come to the sky, I won't really blame you." ”
Yan Bo was shocked, looking at him in disbelief, Meng Zhan patted him on the shoulder in a friendly manner, "It's just that such a mistake should not be made again in the future." ”
What is more touching than the understanding of the victim's friends and relatives? Yan Bo held his hand back, tears flashing in his eyes, and nodded vigorously.
On the second day, when Zhao Chengdong woke up at his sister's house, Zhao Yulan persuaded him, "Now that the matter has come to this, it is useless for you to be in a hurry." Don't clean up, just cultivate those two acres of land. In the future, if you have a profit, it is not too late to raise horses."
Zhao Chengdong still didn't want to go to the bitter days facing the loess and facing the sky again, seeing that she was also busy here, and didn't want to see the people of the Zhang family, he only responded to two sentences and went back. When I got home, I had a little silver in my pocket, but I was much less. I don't know if I was drunk last night, and I was even more depressed.
But the future life is still like a heavy shadow hanging over his head, Zhao Chengdong is depressed, sitting all day is definitely not the way, so what should it be?
Looking left and right, I couldn't even find anyone at home to talk to. At this time, he couldn't help but envy his eldest brother, why did his sister-in-law have so many ideas?
Like in the past, whether it was to open a Juewei Zhai to sell cloth or build an alley to buy a horse farm, it seemed that nothing could be difficult for her. Even my brother was studying, but at first even my mother didn't agree, and my sister-in-law was the most supportive. Every time I go to the county to beg and give the teacher some points, no matter how much the money is, the sister-in-law never frowns, but the eldest brother really wins. If you want to take it seriously, my sister-in-law has the most vision, and if she is still at home at this time, it will not be so difficult to ask her for advice.
What's the point of asking? Zhao Chengdong suddenly remembered, isn't his sister-in-law ready-made and has a piece of wealth? I heard that Fluttershy did a good job in Yonghe Town, and she will open another shop here when she comes back. If it's still a family, wouldn't it be over if my sister-in-law let him do the shop here? Why did he spend so much time here?
Thinking of his own family again, Zhao Chengdong had a headache. When people are far away, some things can be seen clearly. He's not stupid, don't you know that the two women are trying to curry favor with him, just to get a few more money out of his pocket? When something really happens to you, you can't count on it.
Compared with the sister-in-law, it is simply not worthy of lifting shoes for others, Zhao Chengdong is inevitably a little self-pitying, if he has a capable virtuous helper, this will be good and negotiable, how can he worry about it here?
This wife and concubine are really incomparable. Zhao Chengdong realized a little bit that this daughter-in-law really can't just focus on beauty, if she doesn't know how to live a life, it is useless
But now that I'm like this, it's useless to want to marry a daughter-in-law, so I'm still thinking about what I can do, but what the hell is going on? He went around in a circle or returned to square one. I didn't have a clue at all, so I sat in the hall and hugged my head and worried.
He didn't return last night, and the girl Xiaocui was alone at home, and such a big house had just been robbed, but the little girl was so scared that she didn't dare to close her eyes all night. It's easy to look forward to the return of the uncle at home, although his face is gloomy, but he doesn't lose his temper. The little girl stayed in the kitchen honestly, and found a small bench to sit on by the fire and take a nap. But this roasted and roasted, and people fell asleep in a daze.
Zhao Wang's family didn't sleep well last night, thinking about the child over and over again, but last night the father and daughter were told well, and they didn't dare to mention it.
When it came to dawn, Zhao Honest couldn't stand it anymore, "Forget it, it's like you've lost your soul when you guard it at home, go and see Chengdong, so you can persuade him, what's wrong with farming?" Don't we still want to buy a piece of land and plant it? He still has a few horses and a little girl, this condition is much better than the previous family, if some can't, let's go and help, it's over, just don't let him wander there"
As soon as Zhao Wang heard this, he knew that his wife still cared about the child, and immediately had a smile on his face, and he came over on a donkey. But before he arrived at Zhao Chengdong's house, he smelled the boss's mushy smell.
She also said in her heart that this family looked at the fire so carelessly, but as soon as she entered Zhao Chengdong's house, she saw thick smoke billowing from the kitchen, and tongues of fire looming.
was so frightened that her face was almost white, "Are you at home?" The water is gone, come and put out the fire."
Yes? Zhao Chengdong was still wandering in the world, and he didn't care about the smell of smoke at all. Hearing my mother shouting like this, I came back to my senses and hurriedly rushed out to take a look, but no, my kitchen was about to burn
Or Zhao Wang's boldness, he tore off his headscarf and wrapped his mouth and nose and rushed in to check first, but saw Xiao Cui, who had fallen to the ground unconscious, "Come in, the little girl is still here."
Hearing that someone was still there, Zhao Chengdong was also frightened, and he and his mother carried Xiaocui out first, and then fetched water to fight the fire. Fortunately, Zhao Wang's came in time, the fire was not big, and it was extinguished quickly. Over there, Zhao Wang's gave Xiaocui a while, and then woke up the little girl.
Xiaocui herself was scared enough, and as soon as she woke up, she cried, and it was easy to wait for her to calm down and explain things clearly, Zhao Wangshi pouted when she heard it. I don't want to blame her, so I kindly brought her hot water and let her wash up and sleep.
This head came over to help clean up the kitchen, it was useless to burn it all, and there was nothing to clean up, it was nothing more than to spend money to rebuild the brush and paint the white ash, and add a set of kitchen utensils.
Zhao Wang's family was also lazy, pulled Zhao Chengdong to sit down together, and said with palpitations, "Chengdong, you can't live like this." It's such a big house, and there are no neighbors left or right. I was robbed last time, and this time I went out of the water. Maybe something will happen next time. Think about it for yourself, if this fire really burns, what if something else is small, what if it hurts people's lives? ”
Zhao Chengdong really felt that he had been unlucky recently, and he was a little embarrassed to see his mother, but how could the two mothers have an overnight feud? It's just that moment of embarrassment, but it's all right, and the conversation is the same as usual.
"So what do you think you can do? I can't sell my house, can I? Isn't that another toss? How much money can I get? ”
Zhao Wangshi thought about it and gave him an idea, "You, don't be afraid of hardship, or according to what your father said before, let's see two trees, and clean up your backyard first, the fence must be surrounded According to me, it is best to make some yellow mud on the base, then it will be safe." ”
Zhao Chengdong was not interested when he heard this, "What's the point of these trivial things?" The point is that now that there is no livelihood, that one is dead."
"Don't worry, listen to me first," Zhao Wang helped him plan, "This fence needs to be repaired, and the two people in your house have to let them come back quickly." Since the family is like this, don't pretend to be wide, I think your backyard is quite big, it's better to build a horse shed like ours, and raise some chickens. That Ah Sheng doesn't need him to live in the stable, just come back and live. In case you're not at home and there's a man there, be brave. ”
Zhao Chengdong was surprised, what kind of idea did his mother come up with? "Then my two pieces of land are not wasted?"
"How can it be desolate? Those are two good plots of land, and if you grow them into crops, will this one be enough to chew? By the way, your stable has a ready-made shed, and a fence. Take that thing down and put it on the fence and build a tent, and that's all there is to it. It's just a matter of some work, and then your father and I will help you do it."
Zhao Wang's family happily thought about saving him another sum, but Zhao Chengdong was obviously not interested.
