Mrs. Zhou didn't believe Zhou Ming's bold words, because she knew her son's financial situation quite well.

Before Zhou Zhou Ming went to the yamen on an errand, he had been living on his parents, and his food and clothing were all from his parents, and even his usual pocket money was given by his parents.

After he and Lin Ajiao got married, Zhou Ruhai and Mrs. Zhou both felt that the children were old and had already started a family, and they should give them some silver every month, after all, their son has grown up so big and has never earned a penny.

Although the two old men made this decision, the money they gave to Zhou Ming and the two of them every month was not much, that is, it was just enough to buy some rouge gouache for Lin Ajiao.

Since Zhou Zhou Ming went to Yamen on an errand, although he has an extra income, but a small head catcher, the income is naturally limited, so Mrs. Zhou feels that Zhou Zhou Ming is talking big, and after the matter passes, she has to pay for her son to clean up the aftermath.

After all, his son's big words have already been spoken, and those subordinates in the family are waiting to get the silver, if he doesn't help his son fulfill his promise at this time, he will lose his trust in the next person's Zhou Ming, and it will be difficult to establish his prestige at home in the future.

Mrs. Zhou twisted Zhou Ming's shoulder, and pretended to be disgusted: "You stinky boy, you haven't been on an errand outside for a long time, and those who are not indiscriminate outside, you have learned a lot of stinky problems, and you actually dare to brag in front of your own mother, you are not small!"

I don't know what kind of virtue you kid has since you been a child? If you have money, you know how to spend it indiscriminately, and your little money is not enough to buy rouge gouache for your daughter-in-law, where do you get the money to reward your subordinates?

In the end, it doesn't depend on your dad and me! ”

Faced with his wife's ridicule, Zhou Zhou Ming was very unconvinced, and secretly thought in his heart that his mother was really watching people through the cracks in the door and flattening people.

However, he didn't feel angry, because Mrs. Zhou didn't know that he had received 100,000 taels of silver from Yang Shijun, and it would be really difficult to get together the reward money in a short period of time just with his meager income.

"Mother, don't underestimate me, maybe when the time comes, I will give our whole family a big surprise." Zhou Ming smiled mysteriously.

Hearing her son say this, Mrs. Zhou was a little moved, but she also understood in her heart that her son was deliberately joking and trying to make herself happy in order to alleviate the embarrassing situation in front of her.

While groping with the torn clothes on Zhou Ming's body, she said in a complicated mood: "I'm not surprised, I don't care about my mother at all, my mother just hopes that you can be safe, there is no disaster or difficulty, and I am satisfied, as for the rest, my mother does not have any extravagant hopes for you." ”

After hearing these words, Zhou Zhou Ming suddenly felt very warm in his heart, compared with his father, his mother's maternal love is really too selfless.

Zhou Zhou Ming and the old lady are filial piety, after everyone in the yard saw it, they were envious, and felt that the relationship between mother and son was really good.

Zhou Ruhai has been very uncomfortable in his heart since he was sarcastically beaten by Zhou Zhou Ming just now, he has been struggling, whether to stand up quickly, in front of everyone in the family, and admit a mistake to Zhou Zhou Ming, because if he doesn't do this, his son will definitely leave a knot in his heart, once things become like this, it will be difficult for the relationship between father and son to return to the way it used to be.

And more importantly, after his son experienced the ordeal last night, he made two great contributions, and it can be said that Zhou Zhou Ming was the first hero of this arrest.

As long as the current emperor is not a fool, he will definitely reward his son heavily afterwards, and the reward of property is secondary, the important thing is the promotion of official positions, judging by the importance of Zhou Ming's meritorious service, he may be promoted several levels in a row, and directly leave the south of the city to inspect the yamen and go to the more important yamen to hold important positions.

And once this is the case, Zhou Ming, who is young and vigorous and is not familiar with the rules of officialdom, will definitely need his own help, if the relationship between their father and son cannot return to normal, the two of them will be very embarrassed to talk at that time, let alone expect to give Zhou Ming advice at an important moment.

Even if he can be cheeky and give pertinent advice at that time, it is unknown whether Zhou Zhou Ming's stinky temper will be listened to.

After thinking of these consequences, Zhou Ruhai's mood became completely heavy, after all, if he wanted to avoid these situations, he must stand up bravely at this moment and take the initiative to admit his mistake to Zhou Ming, and such a move will undoubtedly cause a big loss of face, and it is likely that he will not be able to raise his head in front of his family in the future.

Faced with this dilemma, Zhou Ruhai had a hard time choosing, and it was not until this moment that he understood in his heart how hateful Laifu, who killed a thousand knives, was.

Not only did he almost ruin his son's reputation with a few words, but he also put himself in a dilemma at this moment.

He secretly swore in his heart that if he could successfully get through this difficulty, he would definitely find the dog slave to settle the account, and if he didn't beat the dog slave all over his body, he couldn't understand the hatred in his heart.

Just when Zhou Ruhai was still hesitating, Lin Ajiao decisively began to act.

In fact, Lin Ajiao's mood at the moment is similar to Zhou Ruhai, since Zhou Zhou Ming explained the ins and outs of her trip to Huamanlou yesterday, Lin Ajiao has been immersed in self-blame, trying to find an opportunity to admit her mistake to Zhou Zhouming, but first, to take care of her own face, and secondly, she really didn't wait for a good time, so she has been standing next to her nervously.

It wasn't until she saw those subordinates admit their mistakes to Zhou Zhou Ming, and they were immediately forgiven, and she suddenly opened up in her heart, feeling that only admitting mistakes was the only way out, after all, she and Zhou Zhou Ming were husband and wife, no matter how you said it, they were closer than those subordinates, and Zhou Zhou Ming was so magnanimous to those who admitted their mistakes, if he really admitted his mistakes to Zhou Ming, he would definitely not be too embarrassed by himself.

After making up her mind, Lin Ajiao just wanted to walk over and put her ideas into action, when she saw Zhou Ming and Mrs. Zhou interacting warmly, and the picture displayed by the two of them made Lin Ajiao feel an indescribable feeling in her heart.

She knew in her heart that if according to common sense, it should be herself who stood next to Zhou Ming at the moment and interacted sweetly with him, after all, she was his wife, and that position should have belonged to her.

And the reason why this kind of picture did not appear was entirely because Lin Ajiao was too impulsive and brainless, so that she lost this important opportunity to enhance her relationship with Zhou Ming, and almost broke the relationship between the two people completely.

After thinking of this, Lin Ajiao hated herself to the core, thinking that from now on, as long as Xianggong did not leave him, no matter what he did, how others slandered him and slandered him, he would always be on his side, even if he proved his choice wrong in the end, he would have no regrets.

Patiently waited until Zhou Zhou Ming and Mrs. Zhou finished speaking, Lin Ajiao did not hesitate any longer, she walked in front of Zhou Ming all of a sudden, and when she was about to speak, she saw Zhou Zhou Ming's eyes, and the emotions she had brewed before disappeared, and she couldn't say a word for a long time.

This is not that Lin Ajiao dropped the chain at a critical moment, but that Zhou Ming's eyes looked at her made her feel strange and terrifying, as if she was not his wife, but a stranger.

In fact, the reason why Zhou Zhou Ming looked at Lin Ajiao like this was deliberate, because Lin Ajiao had disappointed him too much before, he wanted to teach her a good lesson, let her remember it in her heart, and when she encountered a similar situation in the future, no matter whether she explained it or not, she had to stand on her side unconditionally, otherwise, even if the relationship between the two people was good, if this kind of distrust scene occurred repeatedly, it would be meaningless for the two people to live together.

Everyone in the courtyard saw Zhou Ming and Lin Ajiao standing face to face, but they didn't say a word, and Zhou Zhou Ming's face also had an indifferent expression, all of which showed that Zhou Zhou Ming was really angry, because if it weren't for this, with the relationship between him and the young grandmother, the two would definitely have complained to each other a long time ago.

When the people saw this picture, they were secretly worried about their young grandmother, because most of them knew Zhou Ming very well, and knew that although he usually had a very good temper and treated his subordinates very kindly, what he couldn't stand the most was betrayal, especially the betrayal of the closest people.

While worrying about their young grandmother, these subordinates exchanged heads and whispered to each other.

"Do you say, will the young grandmother be forgiven?"

"I think it's enough, our young master can stand everything, but he can't stand the betrayal of others. Our young grandmother did too much just now, just based on Laifu's words, she decided that the young master didn't do a good job, and if I was the young master, I wouldn't be able to spare her. ”

"I also think that the young master is magnanimous to us, because we are all subordinates, we have never read books, and our brains are even less useful, and it is understandable that we have been coaxed.

But our young grandmother is different, she has read books, and she has martial arts cultivation, and she was deceived by a blessing, and she still ignores the young master at a critical moment, and if the young master forgives her easily, it is too temperless. ”

Zhou Ruhai stood aside, also pinching a sweat for his daughter-in-law, he even planned in his heart to see if his daughter-in-law would be forgiven after admitting her mistakes, and then decide for himself whether to bow her head and admit her mistakes to his son.

After all, there is a lesson from the past, as a reference, if you take action later, you will have a much greater chance of success.

Mrs. Zhou stood beside Zhou Ming, from the moment she saw Lin Ajiao coming over, her old man was very happy in her heart, and felt that her daughter-in-law was really understanding, at this time, as long as she lowered her posture and came to admit her mistake to her son, the two of them would definitely be able to reconcile as before.

After all, the son is not such a stingy person, as long as the daughter-in-law gives enough face, he will definitely forgive the daughter-in-law for what she did just now.
