What he said was a bit heart-wrenching, although Liu's father and Liu's mother were ordinary people, they heard the meaning of the words. The couple glanced at each other, and both saw the folds on each other's foreheads.

The couple is different from Wang Miaochun, they treat Zhang Ning as a baby. Not only because Zhang Ning has a good appearance and good character, but also because the two have no children under their knees.

And if Xiuxiu marries Zhang Ning, the two families are so close, this son-in-law is a real son.

However, Wang Miaochun is the eldest son-in-law after all, and the husband and wife are not good at speaking. Although Father Liu didn't like it in his heart, he said on his face: "San Lang, your words really don't understand me. Xiao Ning has a good appearance and a good personality, why is he not a good match?"

"Chang Jun, with a good personality, can't be eaten. You must know that rich people make ghosts grind, and they have no money to work hard. This married person is good, that is, every bird flies on the branch to make a phoenix. Brocade clothes and jade food and other idle things, there are maidservants to serve, ten fingers do not touch the spring water, only need to sit in front of the dresser and apply rouge in the mirror, wear gold and silver. There are four people in a soft sedan chair outside, a group of domestic slaves, and the scenery is unlimited. And married a poor man, every day of firewood, rice, oil and salt, within a few years, he will be old. This is still himself, and if he gives birth to children in the future, he will suffer them. ”

Wang Miaochun is eloquent, and what he said is not only good, but also very reasonable.

After a pause, Wang Miaochun said again: "I heard that Xiao Ning is a prisoner in the prison cell, although he has some oil and water, but he is not rich. The errands were divided into day shifts and evening shifts, and the day and night were reversed. This also has an impact on longevity. Nature is not a good match. ”

If a utilitarian person hears this, he will immediately be shaken. But Liu's father and Liu's mother are not utilitarian people, and the two are very precious Zhang Ning.

Besides, the couple has seen it with their own eyes these days. In front of Zhang's house, there is a lot of traffic, and there are no folk customs in front of each other, all of them are brocade clothes and embroidered robes, and the dignitaries and dignitaries who are hugging each other before and after.

Although since then, Zhang Ning has quit his job in the cell and is idle. But with these connections, Feihuang Tengda is just an idle matter.

This kind of son-in-law can not only be pushed out, not only can't be pushed out, but also has to be watched by the baby, so as not to let other women run away.

"We do not seek riches, but peace. Father Liu shook his head and said, his face was serious, the meaning was already obvious, so let's stop here.

Although it is said that the son-in-law is half a son, it is not the son-in-law's business who the youngest daughter marries.

Wang Miaochun frowned, thinking to himself, why is this father-in-law so unreasonable? But it is no wonder that although his father-in-law is also a small official in the yamen, he is very lowly and belongs to the bottom class.

The background is low, and the vision is really narrow.

But this matter is really good for the Wang family, and Wang Miaochun doesn't want to give up. After thinking about it, Wang Miaochun said again: "Father-in-law is not in a hurry to make up his mind first. Listen to your son-in-law first. ”

Speaking of this, Wang Miaochun said: "Zhang Zichao, the new county commander of Chenyang County, is in his early twenties, young and promising. Because he was an official in another place, his wife didn't follow him, and there was a lack of a pillow person by his side. The term of office of the county order is generally three years, and if the younger sister is married to him as a concubine, he will give birth to an heir. can compete with his wife, and the future of brocade clothes will be rich. ”

Father and Mother Liu's faces had changed, and Father Liu brushed his sleeves and said, "Although my Liu family is cheap, there is no reason to marry my daughter to someone else as a concubine. Don't mention this matter again. ”

Liu Mu shook her head and walked out with her.

Wang Miaochun's face was also a little ugly, thinking. "It's really rotten wood that can't be carved. ”

After a conversation, it broke up unhappily. However, Wang Miaochun is not a person who gives up easily, after the Liu family and his wife left, he pondered for a moment and then thought about it again.

Evening.

Although the words of the eldest son-in-law are not listened to, he is still his own eldest son-in-law. After those words, the Liu family couple didn't think much about it, and after the meal was ready, they called the eldest daughter, the eldest son-in-law, the grandson Hutou, Liu Xiuxiu, and Zhang Ning's baby pimple.

The family sits down to eat together.

Zhang Ning has eaten white rice at Liu's house for many years, and has been eating with Wang Miaochun for many years. In previous years, it was necessary to toast Wang Miaochun.

Zhang Ning was careful, thinking that Wang Miaochun was sick this year. asked Xiuxiu to take a pot of white water, personally poured it for herself and Wang Miaochun, and then said: "Brother Wang, the younger brother replaces the wine with tea, and I toast you." ”

In previous years, Wang Miaochun smiled and nodded and drank. This year, Wang Miaochun hummed without being salty, then picked up the teacup, took a sip and put it down very coldly.

Zhang Ning was a little strange, thinking, it seems that something has happened? He is not a person who sticks his ass with a cold face. He stopped doing superfluous things, and only communicated with the Liu family while eating vegetables.

Only Zhang Ning, Liu Xiuxiu, and Tiger Head were in the dark, and everyone else knew about it. The Liu family and his wife Liu Qiuqiu looked worriedly.

The meal is not very lively, but it is barely okay. After Zhang Ning finished eating, he said goodbye and left. Wang Miaochun was also a little tired and went down to rest.

As for leftovers, naturally there are women to clean them up.

The next morning, Liu's father went to work in the yamen, and Liu's mother talked to her two daughters, hugging the tiger's head by the way. And Wang Miaochun took advantage of an opportunity to leave Liu's house and come to the door of Zhang's house.

The door was not latched and opened with a slight push. Wang Miaochun didn't want to alarm the Liu family, so he didn't come to the door. Entering Zhang's house, he saw Zhang Ning lying in a rocking chair.

Zhang Ning had actually heard the movement a long time ago, and Wang Miaochun was a little cold last night, so he wondered why Wang Miaochun came to look for him again.

However, Wang Miaochun is Xiuxiu's brother-in-law in the end, and Zhang Ning is quite polite. He asked, "Why is Brother Wang here?"

"There's something I want to talk about. Wang Miaochun said lightly.

"Please sit in the lobby of Brother Wang, and I'll make tea. Zhang Ning nodded, turned around and wanted to go down to make tea.

"I don't have to make tea anymore. Wang Miaochun said, thinking about what good tea you have at home. Zhang Ning didn't care, so he invited Wang Miaochun into the lobby and sat down.

After sitting down, Wang Miaochun said bluntly: "Xiao Ning, I came today for you and Xiuxiu. After finishing speaking, Wang Miaochun said again: "You and Xiuxiu's childhood sweetheart, father-in-law and mother-in-law both like you." But my brother-in-law doesn't agree to Xiuxiu's marriage with you. Because your errand in the prison is too hard, Xiuxiu is so beautiful that she deserves to find a better one. ”

Zhang Ning frowned, he really couldn't understand what this person was thinking, could it be that he was crazy?

Zhang Ning smiled a little coldly and said: "There is a good saying, if you are not in your position, you will not do anything. Brother Wang, I call you Brother Wang because you are the husband of Sister Qiuqiu. It's not because I respect you. Brother Wang, you are too lenient. ”

Wang Miaochun doesn't care about Zhang Ning's attitude, and he doesn't care about Zhang Ning's words, which is expected. It would be incredible if it could be done in a few words.

Wang Miaochun groped in his sleeve, took out a silver ticket and put it down. said: "Here are 20,000 taels of silver, as long as you promise to alienate Xiuxiu, this silver is yours." ”
