The more Mrs. Fang listened, the more shameful she became. She took a step forward and embraced Xiaocao, who had been sprayed by Zhang's saliva, into her arms. She frowned and stared angrily at the old woman in front of her, and said with a sneer, "I haven't seen it before." Such a grandma insults her young granddaughter with such vicious words. It is really sad for us Xiaocao to have such a vulgar grandma who speaks and behaves so vulgarly and messes around!!"
Mrs. Zhang, who was full of scolding, rushed to the top of her head with anger, and didn't care about whether she was an official wife or not. She jumped three feet high, pointed at Mrs. Fang's nose, and shouted loudly: "Who are you! I taught my ignorant granddaughter, what are you doing? Don't think that you are an official, so you can reach out to take care of our housework!!"
Linglong was so angry that her face turned pale, and she rushed to her wife, loyally defending her lord and said sharply: "Shut up!! Our wife is a dignified third-grade gentleman, even a concubine in the palace, you have to be courteous to our wife, you are ignorant Foolish woman, who dares to insult my wife by pointing at her nose!! Ma'am, this servant will take your post to the county government, I don't believe that this stupid woman can't be punished!!"
When Mrs. Zhang heard the word "county government", she panicked. The flesh on her face trembled, and she, who was like an inflated balloon just now, immediately deflated. She was in a panic, her mind was spinning rapidly, and in the end she was helpless, she sat down on the ground, patted her thigh and cried at the top of her voice:
"Oh my god! How can you tell people to live~~~~ My old woman will be dragged to beat my son and granddaughter by others!! Officials can't be so careless about human lives... God, open your eyes !! Give my old lady a way to survive—”
Not to mention Mrs. Fang, even the daughter of the Xia family, Linglong, who was married as a dowry, had never seen this kind of formation before, and was immediately stunned by the vulgar old woman's rolling and sloppy manner in front of her. Meeting such an unreasonable rural old woman, Mrs. Fang is simply a scholar who meets a soldier. It's hard to explain why!
Yu Xiaocao saw more and more people watching, and many people who didn't know the truth pointed at them. She hated Mrs. Zhang, who was staring at their house like a blood-sucking leech, from the bottom of her heart to the extreme. If Zhang's family doesn't handle it well, it will become the biggest stumbling block for their family to get rich. However, Mrs. Zhang insisted on the word "filial piety" and bullied her father to death!
[If you have any troubles, teach me to God Stone! Guaranteed to help you get rid of that old witch without anyone noticing!]Xiao Butianshi spoke cold-blooded and gloomy words in a voice as immature as a child, but there was no sense of disobedience.
Yu Xiaocao knew that Xiaobutian Stone was in the form of a spirit body, attached to the five-colored stone on her wrist, and knew everything that happened in front of her eyes, as well as her mood. She also knew that Xiaobutianshi was really thinking of her, and wanted to help her deal with this trouble once and for all. But after all, living in a peaceful age, the concept of human life is deeply rooted. If a person loses his life because of her, she will never have peace in her heart.
[Cut—fake mercy! To deal with people like the old hag, you have to use extreme methods! ! Since you don't want to get involved in a life lawsuit, Ben Shenshi has other tricks to teach her. Don't worry leave it to me! !]
Xiaocao, who is the master recently, doesn't have many things to ask the Butianshi to help, and its progress in cultivation is slow. If it goes on like this, when will it be able to return to its heyday, break through the void and return to Empress Nuwa! Therefore, as soon as Xiaocao was troubled, Xiaobutianshi immediately jumped out and asked for help. Only by helping its master again can its spiritual power recover several times faster than usual!
Xiaocao told it with a little worry, and said: "Then you have to be careful, don't let people catch you. What's more, don't get killed. Although Mrs. Zhang is hateful, the crime is not worthy of death!"
[Okay, stop talking! Don't worry about my work, don't underestimate the ability of this god stone! !]Xiao Butianshi patted his chest confidently to assure.
However, the most important thing now is to send Mrs. Zhang away. However, judging by her momentum, it is impossible to leave without asking for the money! !
Xiaocao thought that what she valued most was her youngest son's future, so she calmly said, "Grandma, this is a town! Uncle is a scholar after all, and his reputation is the most important thing. If his classmates find out, he has someone who rolls all over the floor. I don't know how to laugh at him, you disgraceful mother! Even if he enters Rongxuan Academy in the future, his husband will greatly discount your impression of your uncle. After all, you did this for him. It’s disgusting to be sent!!”
Mrs. Fang once again looked at her goddaughter with admiration. She never expected that she, who was born in the countryside at a young age, would be able to use "psychological tactics"! Sure enough! ! Little girl, she really likes her! ! Xianggong's daughter is really right! !
As for Mrs. Zhang, who was leaning up and down, patted her thighs and sang in an opera tone, and was crying vigorously, when she heard Xiaocao's words, her crying stopped abruptly, and there was no trace of water on her face. Some onlookers who were sympathetic to her originally pouted.
Zhang's triangular eyes secretly looked around the crowd, and found that there were indeed a few young people dressed as scholars inside, curling their lips and shaking their heads at her, showing contemptuous expressions. Her heart skipped a beat! The town is only that big, and rumors spread the fastest. If it was true as that dead girl said, there were classmates of the youngest son in the crowd, or a teacher from Rongxuan Academy, wouldn't her son's reputation be ruined in her hands? However, if he doesn't get the money today, his younger son's future will be affected... For a while, Mrs. Zhang didn't know whether to continue the quarrel, or leave with her face covered in silence.
Just when she was hesitating, Xiaocao came to her, bent down to hold her arm, and helped Mrs. Zhang who was sitting on the ground up. Xiaocao said in unrelenting voice: "Grandma, since you have spoken about the money, we as juniors can still refuse your face? But, after all, five hundred taels of silver is not a small amount, and it is related to my uncle's future. You can’t take it lightly!! What I mean is, you go back today and let us inquire about it from Rongxuan Academy. If there is such a thing, we can discuss it in the long run. If not, we must not let that liar get away with it. You say Yes or no?"
Mrs. Zhang took the steps that Xiaocao handed over. She stared at Xiaocao with slightly ferocious triangular eyes, and said uncertainly: "You mean, you paid for the five hundred taels of silver? Can you be the head of the house, you little girl? Let your father say something and give me the money." A quasi-letter!!"
"Grandma! It's five hundred taels of silver as soon as you open your mouth. We can't let the sky drop silver! We have to prepare for this silver! Besides, my uncle is not just my father and an older brother. Now that we have separated , will this money have to be borne by the two elder brothers and the parents?" Yu Xiaocao's words are reasonable, and Zhang can't find fault even if she wants to refute them.
Mrs. Zhang lowered her head and thought for a while, the savings at home are only a hundred taels or eighty taels short. According to Xiaocao, the second child can at least say two hundred taels, which will be enough by then. However, she was still unwilling to say: "Your uncle has no other livelihood besides fishing. Where can he find money? Your family can sell watermelons for a day, and he may not be able to earn money by fishing for a lifetime. They are all brothers." , why are you so fussy about it?"
Let an elder brother who separated from the family go to support his younger brother to study, and he said that he cares about every detail. Enough of Zhang's fallacies! ! Yu Xiaocao is not going to be taken advantage of, who wouldn't cry poor
"Grandma, you just saw that our business is good. But, where is the cost!! Not to mention that good seeds of watermelons are hard to come by, it took a lot of effort to find them for us on Wednesday. We still owe What about his money for growing melons! Let’s talk about the rent of this shop! Ask the merchants nearby how much is the monthly rent for a shop in this area? They rent it on an annual basis, and it costs thousands of taels of silver a year! What’s more We rent short-term, the price is even more expensive!! If we earn less than 200 taels a month, we have to pay for it!! Plus the monthly tax, we really can’t make much money! !" Yu Xiaocao came as soon as she opened her mouth, without any drafts.
Mrs. Zhang knows nothing about business. When she heard the rent of two hundred taels of silver a month, she scolded "prodigal son" in her heart. It's cheaper than making money for others.
It seems that it is impossible for her to let the second child fully bear the money today! He could only take the next best thing and said to Yu Hai: "Then... five hundred taels of silver, two hundred taels for you and the boss, and one hundred taels for me and your father! Your elder brother has no family separation, his share and mine are paid together. You see when you give the money!!"
Thinking about the three hundred taels of silver flying out of her hand like this, Mrs. Zhang felt that her heart was bleeding, and it hurt so hot!
Yu Hai just wanted to agree, but his youngest daughter preempted him and said, "Grandma, do you have to say this here? Let everyone know that you asked your separated son for a large sum of money in order to give your uncle a back door. Is that really true?" Okay? As the saying goes: Family ugliness should not be publicized, let’s go home and talk about it!! Grandma, you go to the inner courtyard to rest for a while, eat some watermelon to quench your thirst. In the evening, take our car back. Don’t worry , we can't run!!"
Mrs. Zhang thinks about it, too! She is watching here, and no one can escape. She knew that Xiaocao, a girl, wanted to be part of her father's family. Now that she said so, and the second child didn't object, it's almost done!
After making a fuss for a while, she cried and shouted and screamed, her throat was already parched and unbearably thirsty. Thinking of the sweetness of the watermelon, she couldn't help swallowing a few times, and walked slowly towards the inner courtyard.
Mrs. Fang and Linglong breathed a sigh of relief: Facing the unreasonable vulgar old woman, they have nothing to do, they can only lose! It was my daughter (Miss Cao'er) who had a way to appease the old woman.
However, did you really give her two hundred taels of silver? Mrs. Fang didn't feel sorry for the money, but thought it was worthless! ! In the letter from the husband, there were many things about the old woman bullying Xiaocao's family, and she was very indignant when she was in the capital. She didn't feel bad about sending the two hundred taels of silver to the beggar, but she was not at all willing to give it to Mrs. Zhang! !
