Chapter 14 Lying without changing your face

"Two taels of silver a year, plus 100 catties of grain, which is the most in our village. Zhu Chengyong, do you also give so much? "The village chief didn't want to care about these things, because every time Zhu Chengdong's family was messing around.

"Uncle Village Chief, we also give so much, and if there is something good at home during the New Year's holidays, we will bring it to my father and mother. My second brother, my second brother and sister are really filial, don't listen to my third brother's nonsense. Zhu Chengyong, as the eldest in the family, is also helpless at the moment.

Over the years since they separated, the two old ones have been living with the third child, and they are all used to supplement them.

"Big brother, you're not kind, what's nonsense? Now you can take a look at the second brother's family, there are so many delicious foods, have you sent them to your parents? This thousand taels of silver, give two hundred taels to my father and mother, why can't I do it. "Mrs. Zhu is a scoundrel.

"That's it, eldest brother, you favor the second brother, so you accuse me of being a younger brother, how can I be sorry for you." Zhu Chengdong said unhappily.

"Enough! Don't look for the eldest brother's business, I said that we don't have any silver, and we don't have any silver. I'll send some meat to my father and mother in a moment. Grandpa Zhu said sadly.

The chickens and ducks sent by the shopkeeper yesterday are raised, and the meat is hung in the stove and smoked, and the best pork belly is the most suitable for bacon. It's getting colder, don't be afraid of bad!

"Second brother, we want two hundred taels, just to play two pairs of good longevity. In the past, your brother had no money, and the longevity material prepared by your father and mother was less than ten taels of silver. Now that you have silver, you are reluctant to give flowers to your father, right? ”

"There are two pairs of good longevity materials, and your mother and I can live to ninety-nine. You must draw this money. "Grandpa Zhu's crutches hit the ground.

The older he gets, the more afraid he is of death, so the younger son said that if he lays a good longevity, he will live a long life, and he was immediately moved.

As soon as this statement came out, it was really more useful than any other words, and everyone in the village felt that they should pay for it.

"Daddy, Yuanji owes silver in Fucheng, and the people of Qianzhuang come to collect the debt. We had no choice but to sell the ginseng, and the money was used to pay off the debt, and now I only have a total of 20 taels of silver, which is the money for the children's education next year. The grandfather of the Zhu family told lies without changing his face.

If there is no penny, everyone will not believe it, and twenty taels is more than most people in the village, which is the most appropriate.

As for lying to everyone, he has no guilt at all, and he is willing to accept any punishment given by God for the sake of his children and grandchildren.

"That's right! If you don't believe me, go to the money bank in Fucheng and inquire. Li Datou, you slandered and provoked, and made our family in their seventies hard, and you have to be responsible. Otherwise, we will go to the county government to sue you, second, and let your eldest brother write a pleading. The grandmother of the Zhu family grabbed Li Datou and didn't let go.

She didn't believe that the people in the village ate melons, so she really went to the Hujia Money Village in Fucheng to ask.

"Mother, I'll go now." Zhu Yuansheng honestly went out immediately.

The village chief hurriedly grabbed him, "Don't don't, they all live in the same village." I ask Li Datou to apologize, don't be angry anymore. ”

"Our ancestors have lived here for generations, who has dug up thousand-year-old mountain ginseng? This is nonsense. Zhu Chengyong helped the second brother to speak, and the third brother wanted to take advantage of it.

"What the Zhu family said makes sense, the old people in our village count you as the most happy, you can't chill the heart of the second room of the big house for the sake of your youngest son." Ge Mazi, a good old man in the village, couldn't help but persuade.

"Village chief, if you let go of me, my father and mother will sue, then I will definitely sue." Zhu Yuansheng said another sentence at the right time.

Zhu Yuanxing immediately shouted, "Second brother, I'll go get steamed buns, and we'll go to the county government together." ”

It takes more than an hour to walk from home to the county office, and you have to bring something to eat.

"Wait, don't go! I was wrong, I didn't see much silver, but I saw the shopkeeper of the money bank giving things. Li Datou hurriedly admitted his mistake.

"You're wrong, and that's the end of it? Our family was messed up by you, and it also affected my father and mother, and the village chief and everyone. Grandma Zhu looked at Li Datou, if she didn't give him a uniform this time, he would come to do something next time.

"So what do you say? One thousand taels is not what I said, what does it have to do with me if they spread it randomly? Li Datou was not convinced, he apologized, what else!

"Lose money, we don't want this money, just give it to my father." Grandma Zhu said generously.

Hearing this, Zhu Chengdong's eyes really lit up, "Li Datou, my second sister-in-law is right, my father and mother are in their seventies, just because of your, get up from the bed and sit here blowing the cold wind, you must be responsible." ”

The village chief came out to be a peacemaker, and in the end, Li Datou lost a chicken and two taels of silver.

The grandmother of the Zhu family directly took out the meat and gave half of it to her in-laws, and the matter passed.

There has always been a rule in the village, that when the sons make meat, they must bring a bowl to the old ones. This meat is not cooked, if it is cooked, the Zhu family's grandmother will definitely let people serve it.

The people in the village drooled enviously, such a big piece of meat, or it was Ren Yuan Ji Niang who had the ability, knew medical skills, and knew herbal medicine.

It was a better life than anyone else, and if it weren't for the children to study, their family would have built at least ten big brick houses.

"Big brother, wait a minute." Grandma of the Zhu family wants to cut some meat for the eldest brother.

"No, brother and sister don't need to, I'll go back first." Zhu Chengyong immediately waved his hand, he is an honest man and never takes advantage.

The grandmother of the Zhu family looked at the back of the eldest brother and glared at the grandfather of the Zhu family, "The virtue of your third brother is the habit of the old." The two of you who are brothers have always let it, this stinks. ”

"Yes, yes, it's all our fault, don't be angry, old woman, the children are watching." Grandpa Zhu pointed to the children in the window.

Several little heads were together, Zhu Qianqian was picked up by the eldest brother, and she applauded with both hands, "Milk, you are the general of our family." ”

"Silly boy, come out quickly! What are you two doing standing, don't burn the rabbit yet, I'm so obediently waiting to eat. The grandmother of the Zhu family glared at the two daughters-in-law.

"Mother, I'll go now." Tian Lotus immediately began to cook in a hurry.

"Milk, I'm coming, I'm coming!" As soon as Zhu Qianqian heard that the pot was boiling oil, she immediately got off her eldest brother and ran to the kitchen.

"Mother, our Qianqian must have thought of a good idea again." Chen Baimei immediately patted her ass, as long as she praised Qianqian, her mother-in-law's face would improve.

Sure enough, when she heard this, the grandmother of the Zhu family smiled, "Second daughter-in-law, wait for Qianqian to say." ”

"Second aunt, soak the rabbit meat first, milk, take a little of your dried mushrooms to soak, blanch the meat, fry the sugar, and then put in the rabbit meat, and then add chili peppers, onions and garlic to fry quickly, and then add mushrooms, stew, reduce the juice over high heat, and sprinkle green onions." Zhu Qianqian recited the recipe.

Tian Lotus gasped, how much sugar do you have to use for so much rabbit meat? There was a total of that at home, she didn't dare, she turned her head to look at her mother-in-law.
