Chapter Eighty-Six: Get the Ancestral Mansion Back
After that day, Zhao Mingtang's resentment was depressed, and when he saw Zhao Mingliang and Qiao Jiuniang, he remembered his shame.
"Jiuniang, I went to the town today and saw this hairpin, it is very good-looking, I think it is very good for you, so I bought it back." Zhao Mingliang handed it to Qiao Jiuniang angrily.
Qiao Jiuniang raised her head and looked at the ragged and unkempt Zhao Mingtang in front of her, and couldn't help but take two steps back, unhappy.
These are obviously brothers, Zhao Mingliang and Zhao Mingtang, but they don't look like a family no matter how they look at it, they are very different.
"No need, my husband will buy it for me." What's more, she doesn't look down on this mediocre, even a little simple hairpin.
Qiao Jiuniang glanced at the hairpin contemptuously, smelled the smell of stinky wine, and a trace of disgust flashed in her eyes, "Little brother, how much have you drunk?" The blue sky is white, so that outsiders can see how bad it is. ”
She covered her nose with an embroidered handkerchief, and opened the distance between the two of them as if she were nothing.
Zhao Mingtang went to drink again today, and boasted to those messy people, and he was drunk, so he bought a hairpin and came back.
"Even you are here to teach me a lesson!" Zhao Mingming's eyes were scarlet, and he couldn't stand steadily, staggering.
The breath he exhaled was full of a disgusting smell, and Qiao Jiuniang couldn't avoid it, and the smile on her face that had always been on her face was almost unbearable.
Thinking that they were both brothers, their biological mother couldn't look down on themselves, and even Qiao Jiuniang couldn't look down on themselves, for a while, Zhao Mingtang was furious.
He gritted his teeth and stared at Qiao Jiuniang, clenching his fists.
Qiao Jiuniang chuckled in her heart, a chill ran behind her back, her body trembled slightly, and she took two steps back, "Little brother? I'd better call your eldest brother. "The voices are shaking.
She pursed her lips, her eyes were full of the word vigilant, Zhao Mingtang saw this scene and felt very dazzling.
His chest heaved violently, and his eyes flashed with uncontrollable anger and malice.
He was struggling to make ends meet, and as soon as he Zhao Mingliang came back, he became a master? Why! Unwilling and angry filled his chest, Zhao Mingtang looked at Qiao Jiuniang's nervous appearance and had a plan.
He has lived so miserably and suffered humiliation, Zhao Mingming, a good big brother, has to be sad and sad.
"Sister-in-law."
Qiao Jiuniang was shocked, Zhao Mingtang's thunderous appearance just now seemed to be her illusion, and Zhao Mingtang in front of him, although his eyes were still erratic, his expression was calm.
Zhao Mingtang didn't give Qiao Jiuniang time to think deeply, pretending to be mysterious and lowering his voice.
"Sister-in-law, don't you know, that Lin Wan'er, holding the title deed of the ancestral house." His eyes flashed with a strange light, Qiao Jiuniang felt strange, but she was attracted by his mysterious tone.
"Ancestral home?" She heard a little, and Zhao Mingliang didn't mention these things to herself, those village women, Qiao Jiuniang couldn't look at them again, and they lived for a few days, and they didn't know the situation of the Zhao family.
Now hearing Zhao Mingtang's words, his curiosity couldn't help but rise.
"Sister-in-law doesn't know yet, the ancestral house was originally our Zhao family."
"So what?" Qiao Jiuniang thought to herself, she can be regarded as knowledgeable about the Zhao family's background, and the ancestral mansion is not even more dilapidated than this place, and it is not valuable.
Zhao Mingtang leaned a little closer and said in a low voice: "That ancestral mansion is not the dilapidated house that my sister-in-law thinks, in the hands of that Lin Wan'er, it has already been renovated, and it looks more luxurious than the houses in the city!"
Qiao Jiuniang's heart moved slightly, and she motioned for Zhao Mingtang to continue.
"Sister-in-law also saw it, now we live in a broken place, but it was Lin Wan'er who robbed the ancestral house! Don't you see that house, with blue tiles and white walls, and I heard that the furniture inside is all mahogany, not only in the town, but also in the county! ”
He described it as extremely luxurious, an ancestral mansion, which was comparable to a royal palace.
Qiao Jiuniang was indeed moved, she touched the cloth on her body, and remembered the stinking toilet and the rough bedding in the house.
And her few good clothes, she is reluctant to wear them here - if you walk around, it is all dirt roads and loess, and poultry droppings, which can be easily soiled!
So Zhao Mingliang asked her to wear a few cloth clothes to make it happen, but where had she ever seen such a scene in the countryside, and she felt aggrieved.
"You said it, but it's true?" Qiao Jiuniang's mood rippled, and her eyes couldn't restrain her yearning, Zhao Mingtang saw this, and said even more about how good the ancestral house was.
Qiao Jiuniang looked around, in this dusty place, where should a young lady like her live? made up his mind to let Zhao Lang bring back the ancestral house.
"Sister-in-law, you said that it was my family's thing, but the eldest brother was soft-hearted and refused to tear his face with Lin Wan'er, you go to persuade him? My eldest brother will listen to your words. Zhao Mingtang said again.
Qiao Jiuniang couldn't help but nodded, and echoed, "What the junior brother said is that this Lin Wan'er is really insatiable, and I am willing to mention this matter to Zhao Lang." ”
Zhao Mingtang's smile was even worse, with a triumphant look, Qiao Jiuniang was immersed in her own thoughts, not noticing his expression.
Lin Wan'er didn't know that she was being remembered again at this time, and she was discussing with her family about going out to play.
"Mother, are we really going to go out?" Zhao Mule is a playful person, and when he heard that he was going out, he immediately grabbed Lin Wan'er's sleeve, blinking his eyes full of anticipation.
Lin Wan'er smiled lightly, "That's nature, when did my mother deceive you?" He picked up the little girl.
"Pingping, An An, let's go and see the flowers together, okay?"
"Good!" The unanimous answer amused Lin Wan'er, and the two children surrounded her, their eyes lit up.
Cui Ying laughed on the side, "Oh, you little dolls, didn't grandma still take it to the market yesterday, and I want to go out to play today." ”
Lin Jianxing also smiled, his wrinkles stretched out, and his dark face was full of kindness.
"Grandma, Lele wants to go~"
"An An also wants to go."
Cui Ying nodded the noses of the two little girls, "Two little clever, let your mother take you there, and grandma and grandpa will show you the house." ”
When Lin Wan'er heard this, she smiled helplessly: "Dad, mother, it's rare to go out for a walk, what kind of house do you see?" ”
Cui Ying smiled, "Nan, your father and I won't go, we are all old bones, where can we still walk?" Just stay at home and show you the store. Before the words fell, she gave Lin Jianxing a look.
"That's what your mother said." Lin Jianxing was half a beat slower, and was patted by Cui Ying before answering honestly.
Lin Wan'er knew at a glance that the second elder didn't want to go at all, but she couldn't rest assured that she couldn't go to the store.
She held her forehead helplessly, "Dad, mother, there are still guys in this store, you don't have to watch it every day." ”
"It's rare to go out for a walk, and it's not bad to relax." Lin Wan'er still wanted to continue to persuade, but before she finished speaking, Lin Hongyan also spoke.
"I still have some business to do, so I'll accompany my father and mother at home to earn more money."
"Little sister, you can just accompany the children to play."
