Ding Zhi drank the wine in the cup and said proudly, "You know, it wasn't my fault that I lost money before, it was Lingling who blinded me." My previous ideal was to be the richest man in Linshui County, but now with Xiangxiang, my ideal is even higher. Lingling, then you will be able to be the lady of the decree, and Lilai will also become the young master of the official family. ”

Ding Zhao couldn't help but tease, "Zhizi, you haven't drunk yet, why did you talk about wine." ”

Ding Zhi said, "Big brother doesn't believe it, let's see." Five years later, you see what your brother looks like. ”

Ding Zhao put down the wine glass and said, "Holder, no matter how prosperous others are, you must also be capable yourself, and you can't be high-handed." No matter what you do, you must first calm down and study. For example, to do business, you have to learn from Tang's family first, and then you can do it yourself......"

Ding Zhi didn't like the eldest brother's preaching the most, waved his hand and said, "My master said that I can't do anything, I only have talent in appearance." If I can't do anything, what else can I learn? I think it's accurate, marry the spirit of Wangfu, and you can make a fortune no matter what you do. ”

When Ding Zhuang heard this, he had the urge to snatch back the silver in his arms.

Even the old Taoist priest said that he couldn't do anything, and he still made a fart of money.

Ding Liren said, "Second uncle, what kind of business do you still have, you can see it directly." ”

Ding Zhi said, "My master only taught me to see the appearance of great prosperity and the appearance of extreme prosperity, saying that if I have this ability, I will not worry about eating and drinking in this life." So far, I have only seen one extremely prosperous person, and that is Xiangxiang. There are two prosperous people, one is Lingling, she is a wangfu.

"There is also a little young master, who has been in the Wang family for three generations. I don't know him, and I want to go along and tell his family that I can get some money. They didn't pay attention to me. The child was never seen again, and I don't know which family it belonged to. ”

He was embarrassed to say that the family thought he was shooting flowers and almost didn't beat him.

Zhang said, "Uncle once said that he had seen the county master and his son-in-law, such a big official, it must be the appearance of great prosperity and extreme prosperity." And those who are rich, they should also look good. Why did Uncle only see three people? ”

Ding Zhi explained, "There are less than 1 in 10,000 people with a prosperous face, and it is rare to find a person like Xiangxiang in a hundred years." There are some blessings that have not reached great prosperity or extreme prosperity, I can't see it. There are also people who can be officials, rich, or wives, because they are blessed by their ancestors, or they are benefited by a prosperous person in the family, not himself, and of course he does not have this face.

"For example, our family, Tang Dawang, I can be brought by her even if I don't have a blessed appearance, if I am prosperous, my son can follow Wang. But the number of Tang Wang's is limited, and he can only be prosperous, and at most he will be the richest man in Linshui County. And Xiangxiang's extreme prosperity can prosper our family, including my husband's family, and even ...... Hehe, Xiangxiang is my niece, and I can borrow light too. Now I am a double blessing, and I want to be an imperial merchant. ”

Ding Lilai said again, "Daddy said that my sister is wanting, and I want to tie up my sister well, and ignore my grandfather and grandfather." ”

Ding Zhi smiled dryly, "Dad didn't mean that, Dad asked his son to put his sister first." ”

Ding Zhuang was not angry, just put Xiangxiang in front. Although he very much hoped that Xiangxiang was really a rare one in a hundred years, he still didn't believe this open-mouthed and unobtrusive son, and intuitively felt that he was in Mengren, or that the old Taoist priest was in Mengren.

said, "You can't trust everything you see, the most important thing is that you can do it." Listen to your eldest brother, learn more from the Tang family. Also, no matter what you do, you are not allowed to break the law. Take a long-term view and don't harm the family. ”

Ding Zhi ignored the first half of his words and promised, "Dad, don't worry, I will never do anything illegal, and I am reluctant to harm Lingling and my son." ”

It means that except for his own daughter-in-law and son, it doesn't matter if he harms others.

Tang likes to listen to Ding Zhi's sweet words, raised his head and flashed a few electric glances at Ding Zhi, and the two looked at each other and smiled.

Ding Zhuang, who was in a better mood, was so angry that he threw the wine bowl on the table and scolded, "Where to look, look at the food." In front of the family, why do you look at your daughter-in-law tightly. Lose face. ”

Ding Zhi reluctantly retracted his gaze and muttered, "My aunt often says that my father likes to look at my mother the most, and I am in ......a daze when I see it."

Ding Zhao hurriedly intercepted his words, "Drink, drink." ”

At the end of the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, Ding Zhuang took his son and grandson to the mountain to worship the ancestral grave, and Zhang was busy in the kitchen with cloves on his back.

There was light snow outside, and a cold wind was blowing.

The kitchen is filled with aromas, fried sashi, fried radish balls, fried tofu, and pork and pork intestines cooked in a large pot......

Lilac snorted, even though she knew she couldn't eat it, she was still full of interest.

Tang ate melon seeds in the house for a while and went into the kitchen to help. She doesn't know how to cook and light the fire, she helps peel the onions and garlic, and then scoops up the fried radish balls or sprinkles to eat.

When Ding Zhuang and the others came back at the end of noon, the house was even more lively.

Ding Zhuang hugged Lilac over, Ding Lilai ran to Lilac, stretched out ten fat fingers and began to say, "I want to be good to Xiangxiang, I want to be good to Xiangxiang......"

Although everyone thought Ding Lilai's actions were stupid, his kindness to Xiangxiang still made them happy.

Ding Liren flattered, "You are good to my sister, and I want to be good to you." ”

Ding Lichun said, "Whoever bullies the third brother in the future, the third brother will come back and tell the eldest brother, and the eldest brother will help you beat him." ”

Ding Zhao saw Ding Li coming to break his fingers, so he pulled him again to teach him to count. The last time his nephew came, Ding Zhao taught him, and he couldn't even count three.

Ding Zhao stretched out a finger, "Read it to me, one,"

Ding Lilai is a good boy who is studious, and stretched out a fat finger, "One,"

"Two,"

"Two,"

"Three,"

"Three,"

After counting the five fingers, Ding Zhao taught again coherently, "One, two, three, four, five." ”

Ding Lilai followed along, "One, two, four, five." ”

He looked at the little finger up, "Hey, why is there a finger left?" ”

Ding Zhao corrected, "Three, four, five." ”

"Three, four, five."

"One, two, three,"

"One, two, three,"

"Okay, read it again, one, two, three, four, five."

"One, two, four, five."

After teaching more than a dozen times, Ding Lilai still had to omit the word "three".

The quick-tempered Ding Zhuang was so angry that he scolded hundreds of "stupid".

If it is the eldest grandson and the second grandson, you have to beat him. But this grandson rarely went home, and he had such a pair of fathers and mothers, and he couldn't bear to beat him.

Ding Zhao changed his method and taught him "Hundred Family Names".

"Read with me, Zhao, Qian, Sun, Li,"

"Zhao, Qian, Ding, Li."

"It's not Ding Li, it's Sun Li."

"Sun Li."

"That's right. Read again, Zhao, Qian, Sun, Li. ”

"Zhao, Qian, Ding, Li."

"Sun Li."

"Sun Li."

"Zhao, Qian, Sun, Li."

"Zhao, Qian, Ding, Li."
