Chapter 40: Gu Changqing is a demon
"Why did you come back? The Zhang family doesn't need you! With that, Zhang Shanren turned around and walked into the house.
When Zhang Zezhen saw this scene, she hurriedly gave her eldest brother and sister-in-law a look.
Zhang Zelei comprehended, and knelt down directly in front of his father, "The child is not filial, and now he is back, just to repay you and his mother for their parenting grace, and fulfill the responsibility of being a parent. ”
"The Zhang family can't give birth to a son like you, so you better go."
"Dad, mother! As long as we go back to Zhang's house, we will be cattle and horses. ”
"Daddy! Da Lang is still so young, he can't live without his parents, can you watch your grandson being ridiculed? Fu cried loudly.
"Da Lang has chastity to take care of, you don't need it, and the child will only learn bad if he follows you!"
Seeing that Zhang Shanren was unrelenting, Zhang Zezhen hinted at Zhang Yang's again, at this time, he could only rely on his mother.
Zhang Yang looked at his daughter's pitiful appearance, and finally stood on her side.
"Official, no matter how good my aunt is, she is not as good as my father, this is an eternal truth, how can you not understand it?"
"Parents with bad character might as well not have them, if they teach Da Lang badly, it will be equivalent to ruining my grandson."
"Official, the palms and backs of your hands are full of meat, you love your grandson, why don't you love your son, besides, we punish and punish, beat and beat, let them come back, and everyone can also supervise them."
Zhang Zezhen took advantage of this situation and hurriedly added: "Dad, I think my mother is reasonable, and the store really needs manpower, the eldest brother and sister-in-law can farm at home, and I can take care of the business in the store." You also know that now Gu Changqing has been calculating his daughter, if he succeeds, our family will have no way to live. ”
"Your mother and I can also help you, why do you have to come back?"
"Dad, you and your mother are both at the age of enjoying their old age, how can they do heavy physical work? These jobs are handed over to the eldest brother and sister-in-law, not only to atone for their sins, but also to reduce everyone's burden. ”
Zhang Shanren knew that his daughter was right, but he still didn't want to let go, "Zhenzhen, have you forgotten?" He has already made mistakes more than once, and this gambler will not repent. ”
"Dad, the child swears, I have really completely changed, and I will never gamble again, if there is another time, I am willing to cut off my hands, apologize for my life, and never cause trouble to my family."
"Dad, you have heard it, the eldest brother has repented, if you are still not at ease, then let him make a note, both sides press the handprint, if there is a violation, this shall prevail."
Zhang Shanren heard his daughter and wife singing and harmonizing, he was determined to keep them, and he relented, after all, the current situation is more complicated, and one more helper at home can save a trouble.
"Hey! Then, according to Zhenzhen, it is okay for you to come back, but you must make a note, can you accept it? ”
"Accept, accept, thank you Daddy, thank you little sister." Zhang Zelei and Fu Shi kowtowed again and again to thank them.
"Okay, big brother and sister-in-law, get up."
"Lady, come into the house and bring my pen and ink."
When Zhang Yang heard her husband's words, she immediately went back to the house to get something.
From today on, the rebel sons Zhang Zelei and Fu returned home, farming at home to pay off debts, and cultivating heirs, during this period, there was no income until 100 taels were repaid. If two people are found to be involved in gambling again, they should chop off their hands as evidence.
"What do you two mean to this note?" Zhang Shanren said indifferently.
"No, Dad."
So, under the witness of their families, they pressed their handprints on this note, and this letter of commitment will also be kept by Zhang Shanren.
"Okay, go clean up, wait for Hui Dalang to come back, and you can surprise him." Zhang Zezhen comforted the two.
"Okay, Daddy, little sister, let's go down first."
Seeing the two of them entering me, Zhang Zezhen said: "Dad, you are really an adult, this time you can help my daughter a lot, I will definitely honor you and my mother in the future." ”
"Humph! I know, it's all your idea, right? First cut and then play, it's quite yours. ”
"How can there be, father, daughter, this is no way, only if the family works together, I can fight Gu Changqing to the end, without any link, I may face failure."
"Okay, what you said is right, the wood is already in the boat, and my father will not embarrass them."
"Thank you, Dad."
"Grandpa, grandma, I'm back!" Outside the door, there was a shout from Dalang.
Zhang Zezhen hurriedly stepped forward to greet him, "Da Lang, my aunt gave you a surprise today, do you want to know what it is?" ”
"Really? Auntie, what is the surprise? Da Lang jumped three feet high, not to mention how happy he was.
"You close your eyes and don't open them without my permission, you know? If you break the rules halfway, the surprise is gone. ”
"Hmm." Da Lang nodded, then closed his eyes and covered them with his hands.
She took Da Lang to the house, and when Fu Shi saw her son, she almost cried, and stopped Zhang Zezhen in time.
"Alright, open your eyes." Zhang Zezhen said to Da Lang.
When Da Lang opened his eyes, he actually saw his parents, and he rubbed his eyes in disbelief and opened them again.
"Dad, mother, is it really you?"
"Son, my son, my mother misses you so much!" The three hugged each other tightly, and Zhang Zezhen was full of relief and left with interest.
The eldest brother and sister-in-law are back, she can concentrate on dealing with Gu Changqing, since he can use money to buy people's hearts, then I can use my strength to regain the initiative.
She went to the acres behind her home again, and counted the number and variety of plants she planted each day, as well as the timing of the harvest. Everything is ready, you must start working immediately, Gu Changqing, your good days are coming to an end.
……
"How has Hua Ruoyu been in the past two days?" Gu Changqing asked Steward Gu with tea in both hands.
"Back to the master, Hua Ruoyu has been closed recently, and I haven't heard of any movement."
"Humph! Zhang Zezhen was completely beaten down, hahaha! ”
"The master is wise, he has set many traps and let her fall into them, and she can't get out at all."
"A little girl, how many things she has just experienced, how can she compare with me, when I established Jinyulou, she was not born yet."
"That's what the lord said."
"How is the Wang family in Jinyu Mansion recently?"
"It's not bad, the business of Jinyulou has been very hot recently, people from all levels have come, don't you say, this lunch box invented by Zhang Zezhen has a really good effect."
"Nonsense! This is not her patent, anyone who has the ability can do it, and now there is no restaurant that can surpass Jinyulou. ”
"Yes, my lord is right."
"It seems that Jinyulou doesn't need me to worry about it now. By the way, I remember if Zhang Zezhen had an uncle named ......"
"Yang Dawu."
"Yes, it's him, does he have a holiday with the Zhang family?"
"I heard that Yang Dawu is a gambler, and he also dragged the eldest son of the Zhang family to gamble together, which ruined the Zhang family, or did our 100 taels of silver help Zhang Zezhen."
"Oh? Is it? In this way, Zhang Zezhen still owes me a favor, and she has to pay it back. ”
"What do you mean, sir?"
"Where is this Yang Dawu now?"
"It is said that he was broken by Zhang Yang's waist, and he has been lying at home, unable to get out of bed at all, and he also has a daughter, who has never been married, and takes care of him at home."
"Also, who would dare to marry such a father on the stall? I see that Zhang Zezhen has been quite idle recently, so I'll help her find something to do, and let her return the Gu family's recognition, and we will be clear. ”
"You go to Yang Dawu and tell him that as long as he is willing to join forces with the Gu family to deal with Zhang Zezhen, I can pay for his treatment, and I can also find a Langjun for her daughter and give him another sum of money."
"Got it, sir, I'll go now."
Butler Gu followed Gu Changqing's instructions and came to Yangjia Village, and after asking around, he found Yang Dawu's residence.
Seeing such a dilapidated house, Steward Gu couldn't help but complain: This person must be either a traitor or a thief, otherwise how could he live here, if he didn't deal with Zhang Zezhen, he would never want to deal with this kind of person in his life.
"Is Yang Dawu at home?"
"Who!" A man asked angrily.
"I'm going to send you money!"
As soon as Yang Dawu heard the money, he hurriedly asked Yang Xiaohua to go out and have a look.
"Who are you? I don't know you! ”
Hearing Yang Dawu's arrogant and unreasonable tone, Steward Gu wanted to turn around and leave immediately, but due to the master's instructions, he could only walk in.
"I am the housekeeper of the Gu Mansion, my lord wants to negotiate a business with you, if you cooperate obediently, not only can you get a sum of money, but we can also cure your illness and find a good husband for your daughter."
When Yang Xiaohua heard that there was a man who wanted her, her eyes were golden, from childhood to adulthood, no man was willing to look at herself squarely, how could she miss such an opportunity?
"What business?" As soon as Yang Dawu heard that there was such a good thing, he hurriedly stammered.
"You have a niece named Zhang Zezhen, right?"
"yes, what's wrong?"
"She should be very responsible for your back injury."
"How do you know? Who are you? ”
"Don't be nervous, I'm not here to avenge her, on the contrary, I'm here to avenge you."
Yang Dawu couldn't believe that someone was standing on his side.
"Why?"
"Because she offended the Gu Mansion and owes the Gu Mansion a lot of debts, we need you to help us come back."
"How? I have broken with the Zhang family. ”
"It's not in the way, no matter how you say that you are also her uncle, in the eyes of outsiders, you are still a family. You just have to do what you are told. ”
Yang Dawu pondered for a moment and nodded in agreement.
"You go find three or four gangsters or fools, and then let them go to Zhang's house to propose marriage, saying that there is a marriage contract between them, and these people should be known by Zhang Zezhen."
"Zhang Zezhen only has a marriage contract with Xu Yue, which many people know."
"Their engagement has been dissolved. It's not your business, you just have to do it. ”
"But how could she believe it without a marriage certificate?"
"Don't worry, we will forge the marriage certificate, and your task now is to find someone."
"But the way I am now, how can I get out?"
"As long as you sign this contract, I will find the best doctor to heal your waist until you can walk normally, which is considered to be paid to you in advance."
"No problem, where's the deed? I'll sign it right away. ”
"Don't worry, there is something I want to explain in advance, if you default or quit halfway, you will have to pay 100 taels of silver, if you can't pay it back, then you can only sell your daughter to us."
Yang Dawu is ruthless, he doesn't care about his daughter's life or death, anyway, he sells his daughter, not himself, it doesn't matter.
"No problem, I'll sign it."
And Yang Xiaohua is still stupidly immersed in the fantasy of looking for a husband.
