"Well, it's okay, I pass by there every time I go out, I also bought some paddy fields there, and when the eldest brother goes, I can go to see the eldest brother when I collect the rent. [~]..” Lin Kangping said.
"Brother-in-law, how do you buy paddy fields and shops everywhere? Isn't it true that you have an industry in every county, and it is best to go all the way from here to the capital, your family has real estate, and it will be convenient for us to go out in the future. Zixi smiled.
"Why don't you open an inn in my house? Still all the way? Ziqing replied, Zixi's words reminded her that she could really consider opening a chain inn, but the current energy and financial resources can't do it.
Ziqing and a few laughed for a while, the Liu family had already washed up, and specially came to exchange for Zifu, and Ziqing and the others dispersed.
The next day, Ziqing arranged for Zifu's family to pick up the wind, sent Xiaofen to invite someone, and came back and said, "The wife of the in-laws said that the in-laws will take a few masters to see the old man, and by the way, send the New Year's gift over and beckon our master to go together." ”
Ziqing listened, sent her down, and said to Lin Kangping with a smile: "It's a pity, I can't see another good show." ”
Lin Kangping pinched Ziqing's little face and said with a smile: "It's the mother of two children, and she is still so curious and naughty." Prepare things. ”
"Prepare something, pick up snacks and eggs, bring a tael of silver, and see what they mean."
Ziqing followed Lin Kangping back to her parents' house, Shen was also preparing things, two sets of clothes and shoes and socks were fixed, seeing Ziqing's dim sum eggs, she said: "Go together, just bring one of these things, and if you have more, your aunt won't say that we are good." What your father means, you are still a penny or a tael of silver per person, otherwise. When your grandfather and they want to move out, it won't be the case if they don't have a single silver in their hands, your eldest brother will be an official in Hualien, don't be like your father. If you make something that damages your reputation, it's a little bit of a big loss. ”
Ziqing thought about it, and this is also the truth. Zeng Ruiqing's matter can really come to the door to investigate, and he also visited the village, saying: "We know the severity, and the left and right are only once a year." ”
Zeng Ruixiang had already done a few things in the morning, and waited for Shen to prepare his things and go out, Ziqing was crooked on the bed and talked to Shen, the weather was fine. Ziyu was playing with Yonglian in the yard, Liu took Xiao Tao to clean up her things, and Chen said that she was drying quilts and padded jackets in her yard.
It is said that Zeng Ruiqing came to the door with four sons and a son-in-law, and it was snacks, pork and egg noodles. I was also happy, especially Zhou, who greeted him with a smile, took the things, Zifu, Zilu and Lin Kangping also handed over the prepared silver taels to the old man, the old man was pleased, his mouth moved a few times, and finally just said a few "Okay, good." ”
This is at home, Zeng Ruixiang specially explained to a few of them. No matter what aspect it is, the old man's mentality is still slightly more correct than Tian's, at least he still has some true feelings for these grandchildren, and Zeng Ruixiang is the old man's thoughts. I shouldn't send the silver taels to Chunyu again, so this time I made an exception and gave the silver to the old man.
Tian didn't get the silver tael, his face was a little cloudy, twisting his handkerchief, Lin Kangping and Zifu were the first to discover, of course, there was Zeng Ruixiang. Zeng Ruixiang didn't understand why he was also a mother, so he could only see Tian's smile and gentleness when he asked him for silver. Zeng Ruixiang always thought that growing up with his grandmother when he was a child hurt Tian's heart, so Tian never liked him. Later, when the Chunyu incident happened, Tian blamed all the fault on Zeng Ruixiang, and it was rare to have a smiling face.
"Grandma, why does your old man seem to be a little unhappy, and he won't be annoyed that we gave the silver to Grandpa and didn't give it to you? Hey, what's the difference between Ah Gong and you, his is not yours, a few of us just let Ah Gong be happy. Lin Kangping asked deliberately.
Tian smiled reluctantly, that is, the corners of his mouth pulled a few times, and said, "The same, the same." ”
Zhou checked the things, and didn't seem to be very satisfied, the total of the things that didn't add up to more than five hundred dollars, six catties of meat, sixty eggs, six catties of noodles, six envelopes of all kinds of dim sum, before, she had seen Shen and Ziqing send things to Xia Yu, the pork was a whole pork leg, the noodles were ten catties and twenty catties, and what kind of mutton and snacks, how much?
Zhou Shi walked out of the stove room, looked at Lin Kangping and said with a smile: "Why didn't you catch two fish from your pond, and you can't make a meal without fish for the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner?" ”
"Auntie, go out of the backyard door, facing the bazaar, what kind of fish do you want, my family's fish is sold in the old year, how big can it grow this year, not to mention that I still have a big family to eat, which day don't catch one or two?" Lin Kangping said. [.]
Zhou was stunned when he heard this, when did this Lin son-in-law lose his temper, wasn't he very happy when he asked for an eel last time? And the fish that Shangliang asked for later, didn't he say anything? Could it be that he was provoked by Ziqing? By the way, when they moved last time, they came empty-handed, and at first glance, they were ghosts made by Ziqing, and maybe there was Shen. Zhou's face immediately turned a little cloudy.
What kind of person is Lin Kangping, since he was a child in a high-ranking family, he learned to observe words and colors, and after following Wen San for a few years, he saw people wearing masks, which are not much more complicated than these people, and then later, he went out to run business and dealt with all kinds of people.
"Auntie, don't blame Qing'er, she is now having two children, where can she take care of these things? The general affairs at home are taken care of by the maid, and I just hope that she will be happy to give me a few more children and be content. Lin Kangping said.
Zhou was stunned for a moment, and was said by Lin Kangping, and said with a busy smile: "Look at what Lin son-in-law said, who doesn't know that Ziqing is the most kind-hearted, pity the poor and cherish the old, where can I blame her, I feel sorry for her too much." ”
Zixi swept away, Tian was hugging Ziquan and didn't know what to say, such a loving gaze never stayed on a few of them, Zishou and Zilu Zifu also found out, but they didn't show it, the old man looked at them kindly, and pulled a few of them to sit beside him and talk.
Zeng Ruiqing has always wanted to find a chance to talk to Zifu alone, Zifu has been accompanying the old man except for greeting him when he came in, Zeng Ruiqing still can't let go of his body, or Zhou knows his thoughts.
Hearing the old man ask about Zifu's dispatch of officials, Zeng Ruiqing and Zhou both sat down, and when they learned that Zifu was sent to Hualien, Zeng Ruiqing hurriedly said: "I've been to Hualien, it's a good place, so close to Changzhou." ”
"Zifu, do you know about your father? Your father has been idle at home for almost half a year now, and my family is almost unable to open the pot. The old and the young, which mouth can't eat? Hurry up and help your big daddy, woo. Zhou's tears came as soon as he said it.
"What's wrong with my daddy? I got home too late last night, ran all the way, got up early and had dinner, and my dad didn't tell me anything. Zifu asked.
Actually, Zifu knew about this, Lin Kangping communicated with him when he was in the capital, and the two had a tacit understanding when they were cleaning up the big hair, Zifu was also a short-term protector, but he didn't have the ability before, so he could only come up with ideas. For such a big matter, Kang Ping naturally wanted to discuss it with him, and Zifu also gave a lot of ideas.
Zeng Ruixiang naturally didn't know this, and said at this moment: "I haven't had time to tell him yet, and if I do, he can't help much." ”
"I haven't said yet, how do you know that Zifu can't help? Zifu is the county master, can this thing still stump him? Zhou said with some dissatisfaction.
"Big Daddy, I'll see what's going on." Zifu asked sincerely.
Lin Kangping glanced at him with disdain, and said secretly: "You can pretend better than me." ”
Zeng Ruiqing didn't speak, or Zhou crackled and said a lot, but he couldn't grasp the point, in a word, Zifu either helped Zeng Ruiqing restore his original paperwork, or find him a similar one, otherwise, this family will not be able to survive, and the family will starve to death.
Zifu said directly to Zeng Ruiqing: "Daddy, I'm sorry, I really can't help you with this, you see, Anzhou is the prefect, not to mention the official level, we don't know anything about it, I definitely can't open my mouth for this, and I haven't gone to the post yet, and I don't know what the situation is in Hualien, so it's impossible to take my dad with me." Besides, I think my eldest father is not too young, and after so many years of leaving my eldest mother alone at home, it is time to come back to accompany my eldest mother. Where is it like the aunt said, your population is simple, the grain grown in these two acres of paddy fields is enough for you to eat, and there are two acres of sandy land, there are still a few taels of silver left a year, the previous large piece of vegetable garden, now it belongs to the father and the aunt, do not sell vegetables, keep to feed the pigs and chickens, it is not much stronger than when we moved out, the big new house and yard of the big daddy, the new house of the whole child will be there in the future, what else is there to worry about, why bother, this is the old age, and go outside to see the faces of others, I wonder if Big Daddy thinks what I said makes sense? ”
Zeng Ruiqing didn't reply, Zhou first shouted: "Ouch, Zifu, you don't know, building this new house has wiped out all our family foundations, and now there are all the sons to study, and your grandparents and grandmothers to raise, don't you know, this person is old, and there are many diseases, don't you spend more money on medicine and food?" ”
"Sister-in-law, my father's and mother's medicine expenses have always been borne by me, since you said so, in the future, the two families will be half." Zeng Ruixiang said.
"Oh, second brother, I know you are spending it, I just said casually, now that we don't even have money for food, where can we afford to pay for medicine?" Zhou hurriedly waved his hand and said.
Zifu saw that Zeng Ruiqing didn't speak, so he asked, "Daddy, just say what you think?" ”
"What can I think? Naturally, it is best to go back to Anzhou, not that there is a saying, where you fall, you can get up from where, I can't go away so unclearly, and I am not the only one who is wrong, why do you want me to go home, the bigger the official, the more you will get. You must help me get back out of this bad breath, how do you know if you don't try? Zeng Ruiqing said indignantly.
"Okay, if you insist on going back to Anzhou, I can only wait until I take office to see if there is a chance to find someone I know." Zifu saw that it didn't make sense, and sighed and said.
The old man, Zeng Ruixiang and Zilu all looked at Zifu, but Lin Kangping secretly slandered himself that Zifu could pretend to be innocent if he wanted to do bad things. (This site: Your support is my biggest motivation. )
