Zhu Dafu came to the outside of the study, but found that his two younger brothers were already waiting outside the study, their faces full of anxiety and uneasiness. Leaving aside whether to marry a daughter-in-law or not, whether or not you can increase your salary is the most important thing at the moment.

Zhu Xiaofu saw that his brother and Zhou Yuanwai had finished talking, so he hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Big brother, how are you talking to him, can our wages go up?"

Zhu Erfu also immediately stepped forward and asked, "Big brother, I didn't embarrass you that week, did I?"

Zhu Dafu stood in place, remembering what Zhou Yuanwai had said to him before. If others heard Zhou Yuanwai's sowing discord, they might really swallow that sum of money, but for Zhu Dafu, there is no such thing as monopolizing.

The three of them have no parents since they were children, and the two younger brothers can be said to be raised by Zhu Dafu single-handedly, since they were children, the three of them have been blessed and shared with hardships, Zhu Dafu feels sorry for them too late, how can they betray their two younger brothers because of this.

But being asked by his younger brothers one after another, Zhu Dafu didn't know how to answer for a while. But at least he knew that this was not the place to speak.

He hurriedly said to the two: "It's hard to talk about this matter, let's go find a place where no one is there to talk." ”

After that, Zhu Dafu took his two younger brothers to a secluded place in the backyard, he took out the bottle of medicine that Zhou Yuanwai gave him, and said to them: "That week, he said that if we can sprinkle this bottle of medicine into that spring, he promised to give us four taels of gold!"

When the second brother Zhu Erfu heard this, his eyes immediately widened and asked: "Is it really fake? Is he really so generous? As soon as he makes a move, he will give us four taels of gold? That is worth 40,000 copper coins! If he has this money, the matter of the third brother marrying a daughter-in-law will definitely be settled!"

Which girl does Zhu Xiaofu like, as his own brother, Zhu Erfu certainly knows that although he also wants to marry a wife to live, but after all, he also loves his younger brother, and it is strange to see his younger brother running to see other girls' girls every day, so Zhu Erfu decided to help his younger brother marry the person he likes first.

Zhu Xiaofu on the side heard what the eldest brother said, and began to mumble in his heart, how could he not know who Zhou Peel was, although he didn't recognize the medicinal materials, but he had worked here for so many years, and Zhu Xiaofu had probably guessed the adulteration of the medicine. Now this week, the peel is actually going to sprinkle this medicine into that spring, it seems that this medicine will probably kill people. Although Zhu Xiaofu didn't understand any big truths, no matter how much he wanted to marry that girl, he would not do such a immoral thing because of this.

Thinking of this, he asked Zhu Dafu: "Big brother, this medicine shouldn't be a harmful thing, right? Even if we don't want this money, we can't do bad things with our conscience!"

Zhu Dafu comforted him and said: "Don't worry! This medicine is just to make people have stomach trouble, I think that Zhou Peeling was just trying to do something to make a lot of money, and he didn't dare to do anything that caused his life, if everyone died, who did he sell the medicine to?!"

"But this ......" Although he listened to the eldest brother's explanation, Zhu Xiaofu's heart was still a little uneasy, after all, laxatives are also medicines, and they are poisonous in three parts.

The second brother Zhu Erfu saw that his younger brother was still squirming when he had the opportunity, so he scolded him and said: "If you don't dare to do such a thing, will you still marry the girl in the west of the town?!"

"Marry, marry, marry, of course!" Zhu Xiaofu hurriedly responded.

Seeing this, Zhu Dafu said: "Okay, okay! You are not afraid of being heard by others if you shout so loudly?!"

At this moment, I only heard three crisp gongs from the courtyard, and it seemed that it was time to work again.

Zhu Dafu then instructed his two younger brothers: "There are too many people during the day, let's go to that spring again tonight to sprinkle medicine, and now go to work first, so as not to be suspicious!"

With that, the three of them nodded to each other and went back to work.

The work was done until the sun went down, and by the time the three of them went home and had eaten, it was almost a quarter of an hour old—

Zhu Dafu put down the dishes and chopsticks in his hand and said to Zhu Erfu and Zhu Xiaofu: "Two younger brothers, now that it's dark, it's almost time for us to leave." ”

After that, he took out the bottle of medicine that Zhou Yuanwai gave him in his arms, and confirmed it again and again. The second child, Zhu Erfu, looked at the bottle of medicine, and suddenly thought of a very important thing, so he opened his mouth and said: "That's right! We have to pick up a few buckets of water when we go over, so as not to make a mess of our stomachs." Xiaofu, why don't you go and tell that girl's house that you don't want to drink that spring water these days?"

Zhu Xiaofu just wanted to nod his head in agreement, but Zhu Dafu on the side heard it and hurriedly stopped: "This is not good! You must not tell others about this matter, in case the news leaks, we may have to face prison!"

Hearing that they might go to prison, the two quickly shut up.

Zhu Dafu said, then lowered his head and thought for a moment and said: "But the matter of carrying water, we should indeed pick up a few more buckets to come back, one is to avoid our own stomach, and the other is to give us a cover, if we go to the spring empty-handed, it will definitely make people suspicious, if we bring the bucket over, the people who see it still think that we are just fetching water, they will not be suspicious." ”

After hearing this, the two hurriedly went back to the kitchen and took out the flat pole and the barrel. was about to go out, but Zhu Xiaofu was still a little unsure, so he asked: "Brothers, can we go out like this? What should we do if we meet an acquaintance?"

Zhu Erfu thought for a while and said, "Why don't we find a few pieces of black cloth and cover our faces?"

When the boss Zhu Dafu heard this, he scolded them and said: "You two are stupid? If you go to fetch water properly, others will not be suspicious, but if you find another piece of cloth to cover your face, won't you be clearly saying, 'I'm not a good person'?

"Uh...... It's also ......" Zhu Erfu felt that the eldest brother was reasonable, so he also nodded in praise.

Zhu Xiaofu listened to the eldest brother's analysis, and his face was full of admiration, but he still felt unsteady in his heart, so he said to the eldest brother: "Big brother, if we fetch water tonight for others to see, tomorrow the whole town will have a stomach upset, then won't they naturally blame us? I think it's still a little uneasy!"

Zhu Dafu felt angry and funny when he heard it, where did so many people stare at you on this big night, but since his younger brother feels uneasy, it would be good to let him rest assured.

Zhu Dafu thought about it and said: "If it really doesn't work, our pants and clothes are worn in reverse, and our hair is tied up differently than usual, the night is so thick, they can't see who we are even if they want to see it, now you should rest assured, right?!"

Zhu Xiaofu listened, so he nodded silently, and finally agreed, and the three of them cleaned up, so they prepared to go out.
