(75)

Zhao Chengdong has been living comfortably at home these days, selling a few horses, doing nothing at home all day long, eating and drinking spicy food, and there are people serving him on the left and right, he is as happy as a fairy

When Zhao Wangshi saw his son, he saw that he was like a rich man, eating red and sitting in the hall, with Yang Xiaotao standing on the left and Liu Fang on the right, serving diligently, and the two mothers-in-law were also flattering to him, which was enjoyment.

In this way, Zhao Chengdong felt that following the request of Yang Liu's two daughters, it was nothing to give the two of them some fish and meat New Year's goods. Look at how much money is spent, how accomplished is it?

When he saw his mother coming with two chickens, he frowned, felt stingy, and took the lead, "Mother, why don't you bring a few more?" Why don't you bring eggs when you're about to use it? ”

After all, there are outsiders, Zhao Wang's family is not angry, and glanced at the mothers of the two families of Yangliu, "Chengdong, you come over to me, I have something to find you"

Zhao Chengdong was a little displeased with his mother's tone of speech, but after thinking about it again, maybe his mother had already given it to him, so he hurriedly changed his smiling face and followed, "Mother, what's the matter?" ”

"Let me ask you, why are the horses in your horse farm so short?" Zhao Wang's family actually guessed a few points when she saw the girl and the fish and meat in the courtyard, as well as a lot of new things added to the house, but she didn't want to believe it, so she still had to ask.

Zhao Chengdong coughed disapprenously, "What's this?" After selling it, the family spends a lot this year, where can I make money if I don't rely on that? ”

"You are not a proud thing" Zhao Wangshi was angry, raised his hand and slapped the back of his head, "You have only been separated for a few days, why did you do the business of a loser?" ”

Zhao Chengdong was unhappy, "Why am I a loser?" Am I not going to be able to stay on the horse farm? This relies on the mountains to eat the mountains, and the water to eat the water, of course I have to live on the horse farm, what is this? After giving birth to a pony in the future, won't you come back in a flash? As for all the fuss? If you don't give me money to spend, I promise not to sell a horse."

Zhao Wang's was speechless, how could she have the money to give it to him again? But he still preached bitterly, "You just sell horses, and sell a little less, and it's not too late to sell more in the future, look at your house, don't use it, what kind of girl do you buy?" Is it necessary to return this room of things? ”

"Oh mother, I'm so old, how do I spend my day, you let me have the final say?" Zhao Chengdong has been lawless recently, and he was impatient when he heard his mother's nagging, and felt very prickly, "We are all separated, you don't care about being so wide"

Zhao Wangshi was so angry that she couldn't speak for a long time, she poured out her heart and lungs for the good of the child, and she actually got this result?

Zhao Chengdong saw that his mother was silent, so he simply picked out the words and asked, "Mother, what are you doing here?" Just to send two chickens? ”

Zhao Wangshi remembered his intentions at this time, and he didn't want to open his mouth, but he was really stretched, so he had no choice but to whisper, "How much money do you have in your hands?" Borrow a few taels from your mother. ”

Zhao Chengdong was not happy when he heard it, "Mother, why are you asking me for money?" ”

Zhao Wang's family was angry, Huo Di stood up and shouted, "Didn't I spend all my money for you?" It's going to cost you money for this year."

"Oh, mother, what you said is funny" Outside, several women from the Yangliu family could all hear it clearly.

"Don't say you don't care about this bit of silver, it's really short of hands for a while, you should find the boss Ah, Chengdong has kicked you out of the house, why are you embarrassed to ask him for money?"

"That's it, don't look at the children who are a little proud, and they don't like it, and they are just starting out, how easy is it? It's filial piety, we are also his heart, you won't even take advantage of this little advantage, right? ”

Yang Liu's two mothers were armed with guns and sticks, and Zhao Wang's face was red and white. The heart is very angry, why don't you respect yourself, but honor this group of people?

She is the strongest in her life, and rarely talks to outsiders, so she might as well open her mouth like this, but she eavesdrops on the wall. Now that the words have been spoken, it is not easy to take them back, so I have to ask stubbornly, "Chengdong, my mother borrowed money from you, just say, borrow or not?" Don't have too much mother, just ten taels of silver."

Yang Xiaotao didn't believe that Zhao Wang's family really had no money, and Jiao Didi stepped forward at the moment, "Mother-in-law, you used to spend money when you followed the eldest brother and them in the past, these ten taels of silver are nothing to you, but it is not a small amount for us, and we really can't make it up for a while, isn't it, Xianggong?" ”

At this time, Liu Fang was also collectively external, and she was unwilling to lend money out, "Mother-in-law, if you say that your hands are short for a while, and you are short of two, we will make up for it and give it to you, but this opening is ten taels, where can we change?" Could it be that you are selling horses for this again, then you should scold even more"

"That's it" Zhao Chengdong listened to so many people in the family, and didn't believe that Zhao Wang's family was really here to borrow money, thinking that she was watching herself do New Year's goods and buy a servant, and she was unhappy and deliberately found fault, "Mother, don't be embarrassed for me, you still have your brother's monthly money in your hand, where is the money short?" He used to be a showman, but now he is a lifter, I'm afraid it will rise again, why bother to toss me on purpose? ”

Zhao Wang's choked, how did she explain? Could it be that Zhao Chengcai didn't give her money, but instead honored his father-in-law with money? It's easy to say it when there is no one, but now that the two families of Yangliu are eyeing each other, she wants to say it, which makes it even more funny Now it is really a knockout of her teeth, and she can only swallow it in her stomach

At that moment, Zhao Wang's feet stomped, turned around and walked out. Seeing this, Zhao Chengdong thought that his mother was deliberately borrowing money, and added a sentence, "Mother, you can send a few more chickens and eggs tomorrow."

I'll send a fart Zhao Wang's head and go out without looking back.

I also heard Yang Liu muttering in the back, "This water has never flowed downstream, only the parents have more for the daughter, and I have never heard of the woman asking for it."

Liu Fang's mother said, "That's it, it's a shame that she can say that the hearts of the people are really a bottomless pit, there is not enough time to become a building, you just suffer a loss and eat in a soft heart, my daughter is the tightest hand when her hand is loose, you can listen to her more in the future."

"My daughter's hands are tight."

Seeing that the two were about to fight, Liu Fang stepped forward to change the topic. She got the benefit from selling horses, and now she feels that the battle of tongues is boring, and it is only serious to get things, "Xianggong, since your mother still wants to give this chicken, these two will be given to my mother, right?" ”

"Why?" Yang Xiaotao immediately surrounded and grabbed it.

Zhao Chengdong was happy and generous, "What's there to fight about?" One person will take one first, and then talk about it when there are more of them."

"It's still the most generous building"

"You kid is really arrogant, you will definitely be able to make a big deal in the future"

"But Cheng Dong, you see that it's not easy for us to go back with so many things, can you lend me your horse there? I'll give it back to you when I come back next time."

"What does that mean? Mother, what if you just take one? Xianggong won't be so stingy, let's not be good, just want a small one."

"Okay, okay, okay"

……

Zhao Wangshi suddenly wanted to cry.

She didn't understand how her most distressed child could become like this. I'd rather honor others than honor her, but she is his own mother, and she has worked hard to pull him up, when has she ever eaten one of his eggs and a chicken? How did people become like this?

As he approached the door step by step, Zhao Wang's mood became heavier and heavier. There are only a few dozen dollars left on her body, how will she spend this year?

Zhao Chengcai didn't know that his mother had fallen to such an embarrassing point in the capital, and he took Du Yuhan to Lou's mansion to talk with the two fathers of the Lou family.

This time, the two fathers of the Lou family both fell behind, and when they saw the two newly released lifters, they felt inferior and ashamed.

Zhao Chengcai actually has a little hunch, although the conditions of this junior brother of the Beijing officials are excellent, but because they always have a hereditary position waiting there, no matter how bad they are, they can donate an official, and they will rarely be able to work hard after studying hard in the cold window. In the past, when I was mixed in Beijing, I could see a little bit of what was going on.

But the scene still has to be said, complimenting them is just a moment of carelessness, and giving them a step down. Before Lord Lou went down to court, he said that he would sit and leave, but when Mrs. Lou saw that he was both successful, she was very kind to leave them for lunch, and sat for a while before letting them go.

Walking around the street again, Zhao Chengcai estimated that Meng Zhan should go back to the Meng Mansion again. It's not that he has ulterior motives, it's just that the women of the Meng family are very upset, they are too scheming, they are talking in a fog, and he doesn't bring Zhang Qingting when he entertains them. It's better to go and meet Meng Zhan, Zhao Chengcai still respects this kind of official who has real skills and is upright.

Du Yuhan didn't know at first, but then he didn't want to go when he heard that it was the Guogong Mansion, he was still very proud of some scholars, and he didn't want people to misunderstand that he was a man who climbed the dragon and attached the phoenix, and the flies camped the dogs. It was Zhao Chengcai who reassured that Meng Zhan was a person worth knowing, so he came with him.

As soon as he arrived at the door of Meng's house, he saw a sedan chair with eight lifts, Zhao Chengcai recognized that it was Meng Shangde's sedan chair, and he was busy pulling Du Yuhan to wait on the spot.

Meng Shangde saw them in the sedan chair, let the sedan chair stop in front of them, and greeted them with a smile, "Forgive the old man for being rude, so I won't come down, let's come to the study later."

He was in a respected position, and it was enough to stop and say hello to them. The two of them hurriedly said that they did not dare, and sent him in, and then entered the house, and their own servants came forward to lead them into the study where they were entertained.

Everyone in the house recognized Zhao Chengcai, and he seemed to be a little more enthusiastic than the regular customers, which also made Du Yu's heart feel a little calmer, and he was not so restrained.
