Tielangfang, Su family.

There are eight districts in Chen'an County, ranging from rich to poor, the best is the Li neighborhood, the county examination institute, the county magistrate's office, the mansion of the county lieutenant, as well as the officials of the prison Peng, Wen Peng and other doctors are all there, and the worst is Anningfang, which is equivalent to the slums.

Standing at the door of Tielangfang, handing over the inspection pass, Su Ang walked slowly to the door of Su's house, staring at the tung oil gate with three steps, but it was very mottled, and his fingers unconsciously pinched into his palm.

"Previously, my Su family also lived in the neighborhood!"

There was a sound of striking iron in his ears, Su Ang's fists clenched tighter, and the green bamboo tattoo on the left side of his face also took on a bloodshot red. Although the iron corridor is also paved with bluestone, it is very noisy because it is an area of blacksmith shops and ordnance, and it is actually ranked sixth or seventh among the eight square areas. The Doctor Jue Su family has now become the Su family, has it fallen to such a point?

"Tuk tuk, tuk tuk~" suppressed his emotions, Su Ang stepped forward and knocked on the door.

"Second son?"

The door opened, and the old man showed his head and cried out with joy. This old man's name is Mo, and they all call him Butler Mo, or the big butler Mo, not to mention Su Ang, even the middle brother Su Er was raised under the care of Butler Mo. The housekeeper was silent, but at this time he was pleasantly surprised, pulling Su Ang and refusing to let go.

"Second son, you're back! The old lady thinks that her eyes are going to cry blind when she thinks about it, but don't blame Sister-in-law Jiang, Sister-in-law Jiang is also good for you......

chattering, Su Ang also listened honestly, and followed into the door.

Inside the gate is a courtyard, with side rooms on the left and right, a large inner hall in the middle, and a small inner hall in the middle. The big inner hall is to receive visitors, barely retaining the face of the horse lord, and the small inner hall is the old lady in the housekeeper Mo's mouth, and it is also the place where his old mother lives, Su Ang looked to the left, and his teeth clicked together.

This place, barely, is a little bigger than the place where I live in Nanning, there is no inner courtyard, so the middle brother Su Er and Zhong sister-in-law Jiang's family live, are the two huts on the left?

"Old butler, you rest first, and I'll go to visit my mother. ”

After comforting the housekeeper Mo, Su Ang tidied up his clothes, and walked to the side of the small inner hall with timidity in his heart.

Chen Ming's wine was drunk all afternoon, and he watched it all afternoon, it was a little dark, and it happened to be the time of dinner, Su Ang knocked on the door and went in, and saw his mother sitting at the table crying, seeing him, his body jumped up, and grabbed him quickly, wanting to say something, but he didn't say anything.

On the table, there are big black fish from Dongtu Lake, exquisite snacks, and relatively rare beef, Su Ang helped the old mother to sit down, and pointed to the eating esophagus: "Please also ask my mother to rest assured, these foods are not a child loser, but a gift from the predecessors of Dongtu Lou carp." The mother rested for the time being, and the child went to see the middle brother. ”

The mother nodded in agreement, and Su Ang hurried out the door, and in the hut on the left, his nephew and niece, holding the door, looked at him timidly.

"Su Ji, Su Ling, what are you looking at? Go in with your uncle!"

Rubbing the heads of the two little guys, Su Ang opened the door and went in, it was very simple, there were only beds and tables and chairs, and the middle brother Su Er was sitting in a wheelchair, and in front of him was a simple meal.

How simple is it? One large and two small, three bowls of coarse grains, plus a small plate of amaranth, is the dinner of the middle brother Sur and the two little ones. Su Ling, a three-year-old girl, stumbled and followed, sucking her fingers, pointing behind her, and said timidly: "Father, uncle, Ling'er wants to eat meat." ”

The palm of his hand tightened suddenly, Su Ang's tears almost fell, the daughter of the dignified lady, when did she ever crave meat before?

"Nonsense!"

With a reprimand, the middle brother Su Er looked over, and his square face was helpless at Su Ang, and he shook his head and said: "Your sister-in-law went to chase down the rice and grain owed by others, but after all, she can't let you owe money to Dongtulou, so that you can't participate in the county exam." Brother, your sister-in-law and I didn't send anyone to pick you up, don't blame your sister-in-law, it's the family, and I really can't afford to ask someone to cross the aisle. ”

"Sister-in-law didn't get there?" Su Ang's finger paused.

Pushing his bowl of coarse grain to Su Ang, Su Er shook his head and said: "Your sister-in-law said that she was afraid that she couldn't help but kill you on the road, but I know that she is hard-mouthed and soft-hearted, and she can't pull away at home." You should know that since you came back for your brother, your sister-in-law has supported you at home, and there is no one with strength, not to mention the previous doctors, even the horses, we can afford it? There are only eight vacancies in the entire Chen'an County, and there are only eighty horses, and those who are capable are all staring at our family. ”

Su Ang nodded, indicating that he was clear.

The middle brother in front of him, although he is in a wheelchair, if he stands up, he is also a high-spirited man with a height of eight feet, although he inherited the title of the old man's doctor, but in the memory he obtained, the middle brother's high spirits could not be hidden at all.

Five years ago, Su Er was running around outside, not saying what he did, but he could let Zhong Sister-in-law, who was a snake man, have the test of the Great Yao Kingdom, if he was an official, at least a county lieutenant, even if he was Haoqiang, he had to be like the lord of Dongtu Lake. But when he came back, he broke his leg and settled at home.

And in the past five years, the one who has supported the entire Su family is Sister-in-law Zhong!

"The female ghost said, Sister-in-law Zhong wants to kill me? Yes, even if it is me, she wants to destroy her predecessor. The predecessor is not a bad person, but it is really two to no salvation, it is better to die. ”

"Okay, he's dead, what I have to be careful about now is the whip of Zhong Sister-in-law, pumping it, it hurts hotly. ”

Thinking of the tricky whip in his memory, Su Ang couldn't help but shudder, and suddenly the door was pushed open, and the slanting sun outside shone a large black shadow into the door.

Pressure, huge pressure!

Su Ang felt that his neck was tight, and he was wrapped around a whip, and then someone in his ears exhaled like an orchid, and the faint fragrance was refreshing.

"Good little uncle of the concubine, you are back...... Don't talk, don't disturb your mother, you come out, let the concubine body, love you well!"

"Sister-in-law, misunderstanding!

Snake people, that is, snake keepers taming snake performance, and the kind of snake released when they grow up, basically these snakes will love the house and the black, do not hurt pedestrians, and become a spirit, it is also a kinder spirit category.

Zhong Sister-in-law is this kind of snake person, a whip is superb, and it hurts very much to pump her body, but she can't hurt it. Su Ang is not worried that Zhong Sister-in-law Jiang will kill him, in fact, Zhong Sister-in-law Jiang has too many opportunities to make the predecessor Su Ang die in vain.

But Sister-in-law Zhong beat her predecessor a lot, but she didn't kill her predecessor once, so Su Ang didn't think that behind Zuo Geng would be her sister-in-law......

"Sister-in-law, misunderstanding! What a misunderstanding! You listen to the foolish brother tell you first!"

"Okay, the concubine will listen to your explanation, the concubine went out to beg for rice and grain this time, but she held back the fire in her belly, and the concubine put the ugly words in front, this time the account of Dongtulou, the concubine can't pay it off!"

"You give the concubine body out, and you, Su'er, Ji, Ling! you three, all stay in the house for the concubine!"

The whip was pulled out by Su Ang, and Su Ang felt the back of his head hit the threshold, but he was blocked by the whip, and then his shoulder hit the threshold hard, making him numb in pain, and then rolled him into another hut.

The door slammed shut, the room was dark, and soon the candle was lit, and Zhong Jiaojiang sat on the other side of the table, staring at Su Ang with a pretty face.

The whip was like a long snake, and with a whoosh, it also let go of Su Ang......

"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law~~" Su Angtian grimaced, leaned over, and sat down on the opposite side of the table.

Against the backdrop of the candlelight, the figure of the sister-in-law is like a depiction, even if the pretty face is sinister, it is also coquettish, and all kinds of charm surround the eyebrows. Su Ang couldn't help but sigh, no wonder the middle brother who used to be the eldest doctor would only marry a middle sister-in-law.

Hot enough, spicy enough, beautiful enough, and virtuous.

Su Ang felt that as long as the middle sister-in-law was a little less virtuous, she would have killed her predecessor long ago, and it would not be her turn to occupy the body of her predecessor......

"Sister-in-law, listen to me tell you plainly, that's how it happened. ”

Momentum, courage, suppression! Su Ang unconsciously showed a particularly flattering smile, and with timidity, he told all the things in the Dongtu Building. Sister-in-law Zhong listened carefully and breathed a sigh of relief: "So, so much food sent by Dongtulou is worth nearly ten gold, and all of it is free of money?"

"Don't want money, don't want money! Sister-in-law, you put away the whip first!"

Staring at the whip that was still entwined and dancing around Zhong Sister-in-law's shoulder, Su Ang swallowed his saliva, this whip is not to mention that he is now, even if he becomes a showman, a lifter, and even a saint, he feels that he can't dodge, he is afraid when he sees it, and his predecessor has guessed more than once-

Is this a whip? or is it the tail of Zhong Sister-in-law?

"It's good if you don't want money, it's good if you don't want money......"

The palm of her hand reached under the table, and she didn't know where to take out a dozen gold cakes, and Zhong Sister-in-law stood up impatiently, sat down again, shook her head, and said: "That's it, the dowry is sold if it is sold, and it can't be redeemed, etc.! Are you enlightened? Do you know that those fox friends have cheated you?"

"Sister-in-law, I'm wrong......

Su Ang's voice was dry, and the dozen or so gold cakes were like needles piercing into his heart.

If the little slave kite sold his overnight marriage and moved him, the middle sister-in-law sold the dowry to repay his debts, it was...... In short, Su Ang's eyes were red, he rubbed his eyes, turned his head and said, "Sister-in-law, let's redeem the dowry, that's what you pressed at the bottom of the box." ”

"If you need money urgently, you will return from nine out of thirteen, what will the concubine take to redeem her?"

Still angry, Sister-in-law Zhong stood up, opened the door, and instructed the housekeeper to take out all the food and send some to the old mother, and in addition, let everyone let go of eating. Su Ang followed, head bowed.

"Sister-in-law, these are the people in our family?"

"I can't afford to raise other slaves and maids, and those who should be dismissed are dismissed, and those who should be sold are sold, so as not to be dragged down by you. ”

"Sister-in-law, wait until I am admitted to Xiucai......"

"If you can be admitted to Xiucai, get out and split up!"

Well, Su Ang was speechless.

With fish and meat, in the gobbling up of the two little guys, the dinner was really good, and after eating, Su Ang and Zhong Sister-in-law Jiang sent the old mother to rest and went back.

"Uncle, it's the county exam in two days, and the concubine will send you a book, so you can read it. ”

Holding a half-human-high bamboo slip in one hand, Zhong Sister-in-law pushed the door in, Su Ang saw it, and recognized it as the four books "Qi Zheng", "Liming", "Guoruwen" and "Sure Heart", which were needed to be used in the county examination to govern the country. The four books together are worth two gold, but no matter how hard it is, Zhong Sister-in-law Jiang did not sell it.

"Sister-in-law......" Su Ang choked up with emotion.

"Read the book carefully, if you are admitted to Xiucai, hurry up and break up!"

Admitted to Xiucai, that is, to be able to stand on his own, the sister-in-law has a knife mouth and a tofu heart, and she still has to give the loser a way to live, but at this time, there was a sound of footsteps outside, and the housekeeper Mo led Hua Yingxi to come in and handed the sister-in-law a piece of Jane.

"Three gold ransom flowers are happy, from prostitution to 100 workers...... Su Ang's concubine?"

"For three gold, the shopkeeper of Dongtu Building will pay for the carp baby in advance? Half a piece of slip is a debt slip, let Su Ang of the Su family sign and draw a pledge?"

Gritting her teeth and trembling, Sister-in-law Zhong glared at Su Ang, and the whip swished out: "Loser, come on, come, let my sister-in-law hurt you so much!"

"Sister-in-law, misunderstanding! Misunderstanding! Listen to the foolish brother tell you first!"

"Don't listen!

After a meal, he didn't escape after all, but after smoking, Hua Yingxi still stayed.

Sister-in-law Zhong is a knife-mouthed tofu heart, seeing that Hua Yingxi is dressed in coarse linen clothes, and then listening to Hua Yingxi explain the matter, she stayed and became the maid of the family. Don't look at Hua Yingxi's muslin clothes before, but the clothes were worth three hundred yuan, and Qing Xi had already picked them up, and he was dressed in coarse linen clothes, so he swept the floor and went out.

And the flower warbler likes to be smart and clever, and after washing all the lead, her delicate little face is also very pleasing.

"It's the county exam today, hey, you take care of your family, I'll accompany the loser child to a trip!"

In the early morning of the third day, before Su Ang woke up, he was pulled by his sister-in-law and pressed his face into the basin: "Wash quickly, even if you can't get into Xiucai, don't lose the face of our Su family again!"

"Sister-in-law, slow down, slow down!" Su Ang begged for mercy.

"I can get in, I can get in, haha, what a sister-in-law of the Su family, I can see such a wonderful person, and I have no regrets!"

When Su Ang heard this, his heart trembled coldly.
