Originally, Wang Zhaodi's attention was all on her younger brother, but after hearing what he said, she noticed the third son who came back with him.
Seeing that her son was busy cleaning up the things on the ground, Wang Zhaodi was so distressed that she rushed up to help Qi Qingfeng clean up together.
Wang Zhaodi is quick, Qi Qingfeng cleaned up the things she didn't understand for a long time, she finished it in two or three times, seeing her son's face was ugly, faintly on the verge of fury, Wang Zhaodi knew that he was being raped by her ineffective younger brother Annoyed, he hurriedly spoke out to appease him.
"Third son, you came back after a long time. Are you tired? You should go back to your room and rest for a while. Mother will greet you when she prepares the meals."
Qi Qingfeng was already full of anger, and what Wang Dabao said just now made him lose his face. Now that he got Wang Zhaodi's words, Qi Qingfeng didn't bother to stay here any longer, so he turned around and strode into his room .
At home, he didn't maintain his cultivation as a scholar, and he didn't continue to talk to Wang Dabao. His every move showed that he was angry. This time, no matter how dull Wang Dabao was, he was aware of it.
"Sister, is San Zhu angry?"
Wang Dabao looked at Wang Zhaodi, and said with some doubts: "But am I wrong? You are such a grown-up man, he has done all the work of a scholar, and he still doesn't wash his obscene pants, eldest sister, don't you think you are too spoiled by him? Is it?"
Hearing that her unscrupulous younger brother slurped his trousers one by one, Wang Zhaodi's face was also a little unsightly.
If this matter is not mentioned directly, no one will feel that there is a problem, but Wang Dabao said it outright, and Wang Zhaodi felt uncomfortable.
That's right, my son is such a grown-up man, if he hadn't devoted himself to the imperial examination, he would have married and had children long ago, so it's naturally not her turn to wash the obscene pants.
But whoever makes his son work hard and pass the exam as a scholar, the master has said that if he studies hard, among other things, it will not be a problem to raise people.
The son is busy going to school, and she is just doing laundry, what's the fuss about
But the person who said this was his younger brother who had been hurting him for many years, even if Wang Zhaodi was upset, he would not say anything.
"Dabao, don't call him Sanzhu. He's a scholar now. That name doesn't sound good. You'd better call him Qingfeng."
Wang Dabao pursed his lips, thinking that his elder sister was too used to Qi Qingfeng, so what if she was admitted as a scholar? He is very clear that scholars value face the most, and today's emperor attaches great importance to filial piety, but anyone who wants to enter the officialdom, apart from other aspects, must not have flaws in filial piety.
He is Qi Qingfeng's own uncle, so even if there is something inappropriate, he can only suffer it.
"If you want me to say, you dote on him too much. It's fine if you help wash the other coats, but this obscene pants... Eldest sister, I didn't say you. When you were not married, my obscene pants You are not even allowed to wash it."
Wang Zhaodi: "..."
Can you forget about the panties thing? Isn't this something glorious
But Wang Zhaodi also knew her younger brother's character, and after a few ambiguous responses, she called him into the house. If this continued, she was afraid that she would really get angry at being disturbed by her younger brother.
Wang Zhaodi greeted him into the house, and Wang Dabao didn't say anything about Qi Qingfeng anymore, and that's not why he came here today.
After entering the main room, drinking the tea made by Wang Zhaodi, Wang Dabao directly stated his purpose of coming.
"Sister, my second girl is going to get engaged, and the family's money is not enough. If you give me some, I want to buy some furniture for her. The dowry will look better."
The second daughter of Wang Dabao's family looks like Wang Dabao, she doesn't look very good-looking, and her skin is dark. Although she is a hardworking person, the marriage is not easy to talk about, but after Qi Qingfeng was admitted as a scholar, she finally settled on a marriage Son, it is about a family in the same village, the family background is not bad, Wang Dabao didn't want to wrong his daughter, so he wanted to ask his elder sister for some money to buy some dowry for the daughter.
After hearing Wang Dabao's words, Wang Zhaodi frowned, and said hesitantly, "Dabao, how much do you want?"
Qi Qingfeng passed the examination last year as a scholar, and next year, the three-yearly government examination will start. He still has to go to Fucheng to take the exam, and it costs money to study. He doesn’t know how much it will cost to go to Fucheng next year. Although he has some money on hand, But these are all spent wisely and must not be wasted.
Wang Dabao didn't understand what Wang Zhaodi was saying. In the past, whenever she had no money, she would come to ask Wang Zhaodi for money. Wang Dabao was used to it. Anyway, she would give money in the end, so he said directly: "Two taels of silver." Well, that should be enough."
As he said that, Wang Dabao continued: "Actually, I don't want to ask you for so much money, big sister, but isn't it different this time? The family that the second girl married still has some family background, and I always have to give some for dowry. Two taels of silver should be barely enough, and I will add some of the rest myself."
Wang Zhaodi pursed her lips, a little unhappy, two taels of silver is not a small amount of money, how can she get it, but after all, it is her younger brother who has loved him for so many years, she takes care of him, so she said: "Two taels I don’t have any silver, but if I make up one or two taels, I can still get it together.”
It's not that she doesn't have two taels of silver in her family, but because there is a scholar in the family, it is impossible for Wang Zhaodi to give all the money to Wang Dabao, she has to think about her son.
Wang Dabao waved his hands indifferently and said, "Okay, okay, it's better than nothing, one tael of silver is one tael of silver, you go and get it to me."
He said it as a matter of course, as if it was only natural for Wang Zhaodi to give him money.
And Wang Zhaodi didn't think there was any problem, so she let Wang Dabao sit here, while she went back to her room to get money for Wang Dabao.
After a while, Wang Zhaodi took out a tael of silver, put it into a purse she made, and handed it to Wang Dabao who was waiting.
I don't know whether Wang Dabao didn't trust Wang Zhaodi, or he had other ideas. After he got the purse, he opened it and poured it in the palm of his hand, as if he wanted to see if it was a tael of silver.
And at this moment, a shout came from the side: "Wang Zhaodi, what are you doing!"
The sound was like thunder, and Wang Zhaodi's expression changed instantly in fright. Wang Dabao, who was sitting there looking at the silver, trembled, and the one tael of silver almost fell to the ground, but he quickly put the silver back into his purse. He conveniently put it into his arms, and the movements were done in one go, not to mention how skilled he was.
Qi Baotian strode in. After seeing this scene, his face immediately darkened. He glared at Wang Dabao angrily, and said loudly, "Give me the money."
Wang Dabao said very bachelorly: "This is the money my elder sister gave me. Brother-in-law, if you want it, you can ask my elder sister for it. I'll go first. I have something to do at home, so I won't bother you."
After saying these words, Wang Dabao wanted to slip away, and Qi Baotian wanted to stop him, but was dragged by Wang Zhaodi, and after such a delay, Wang Dabao slipped out of the room.
Seeing that he was about to leave with the money in his pocket, he was grabbed by someone before he had time to be happy. Wang Dabao felt dizzy, and he was thrown to the ground. The purse he was carrying was taken away.
Wang Dabao: "???"
It's a bit different than I imagined...
After Qi Wang retrieved the purse from Wang Dabao's arms, he conveniently put it into his own, and after doing all this, he just entered the main room.
"Father, I got the money back."
After Qi Wang said such a sentence, he didn't speak, but stood aside obediently, he knew that the matter would not end so easily.
Sure enough, Wang Zhaodi, who was found out because she gave money to her younger brother, was instantly blown up. Seeing her baby brother flopping outside and still not getting up, she didn't care about anything else, and hurried over to help Wang Dabao up.
Wang Dabao was a little listless. He leaned against Wang Zhaodi and said aggrievedly: "Eldest sister, the money you gave me was taken away by Erzhu."
To be honest, he, a man in his thirties, made such an appearance, which was really eye-catching, but Wang Zhaodi was used to his appearance. Seeing that her younger brother hadn't shown such aggrieved appearance for a long time, she hurried towards him. Qi Wang said: "Second, what are you doing? Why don't you give the money to your uncle quickly, what's the matter with you child? How can a nephew take money from his uncle's arms?"
Qi Wang didn't speak, but turned his eyes to Qi Baotian: "Father, mother wants me to give money to uncle, do you think I will give it or not?"
Hearing this, Qi Baotian said without hesitation: "Give him money? Give him money, this money belongs to our family!"
As he said that, Qi Baotian waited fiercely for Wang Zhaodi, and asked loudly, "Wang Zhaodi, what did you tell me last time? Didn't you promise not to give your brother money again? What happened this time?" Something? Is our family's money blown by the wind? You give it to him again and again, do you really think about it?"
Qi Baotian spoke louder and louder, and at the same time his head was buzzing with anger. He really didn't expect that Wang Zhaodi could do such a thing.
A tael of silver! That's enough for one-third of Qi Qingfeng's Shu Xiu, how could she just give it to her younger brother
If Qi Wang hadn't just run to the field to tell him that Wang Dabao came to ask for money again, he might not have rushed back with him, if not, he would not have known that Wang Zhaodi had been so lavishly subsidizing his brother.
Qi Baotian was surprised in the past, his family was capable, not to mention anything else, just because the second child worked hard in the county, he could get back more than a penny a month, plus the hard work of his family, a year It is not a problem to be able to save five or six taels of silver.
Although there is such a big spender as Qi Qingfeng, their money shouldn't be spent so quickly. It turns out that it was all subsidized by Wang Zhaodi to supplement Wang Dabao.
"Wang Zhaodi, do you think that if you give birth to a scholar, I won't dare to divorce you?"
Seeing that Qi Baotian was getting more and more angry, Qi Wang added a handful of firewood to the side at the right time: "Father, mother may not have done it on purpose, she used to subsidize uncle often, and uncle is not sensible yet, and there is no parent to take care of him." , as the eldest sister, mother should take more care of her..."
Qi Wang's words were like adding fuel to the flames, and Qi Baotian's anger rose slowly: "Is subsidy such a subsidy method? She might as well subsidize the entire Qi family to him. I think she is a day." It's been a bad day!"
Seeing that Qi Baotian was getting more and more angry, as if he wanted to hit someone, Wang Dabao felt guilty. He felt that if he stayed any longer, he might be beaten up by his brother-in-law, so he immediately got up without thinking about anything else. She shook off Wang Zhaodi's hand and slipped away.
"Sister, I still have things to do, so I won't stay any longer today, I'll come over in two days."
Before he finished speaking, Wang Dabao ran away in a hurry, leaving only Wang Zhaodi to face Qi Baotian's anger.
After Wang Zhaodi's younger brother was gone, she managed to recover some IQ. Thinking of what she just did, Wang Zhaodi felt a little guilty.
"Master, I'm not..."
Wang Zhaodi, who had calmed down, thought that what she had just done to give her younger brother a tael of silver was really inappropriate. She lowered her head and obediently admitted her mistake: "I'm sorry, I was wrong."
Qi Baotian stared at Wang Zhaodi who bowed his head and admitted his mistake, feeling very aggrieved in his heart, but in front of his son, he didn't want to say much, he just snorted coldly and said: "Give me the money box, From now on, you will not be in charge of the house."
When Wang Zhaodi heard this, her face changed instantly.
In this rural area, women are basically in charge of the family's money. After all, most men are careless and don't know how to settle accounts. Moreover, men's hands are very scattered. If money is given to them, they probably won't be able to save much, so Basically all the money is in the hands of women.
In the past, Qi Baotian never cared about the money, but now if he wants to take the money, isn't this taking away her rights
Wang Zhaodi was very anxious, and hurriedly said: "You can't do this, head of the family. I was wrong. I promise it's only this time, and it won't happen next time. Don't treat me like this, okay?"
However, Qi Baotian had completely given up on Wang Zhaodi because of the one tael of silver just now.
He knew that his wife took good care of Wang Dabao's younger brother, and because he was Wang Zhaodi's only younger brother, Qi Baotian usually turned a blind eye to it, but this time it was different.
Even if she gave a penny, Qi Baotian would not be as angry as he is now. Although their family's life is not bad, but there is no time for them to spend recklessly, especially next year Qi Qingfeng will go to Fucheng for an exam. At that time, she was still lavishly supporting her younger brother, which was obviously out of focus. If she didn't teach her a lesson, she would evacuate the family.
After all, the head of this family belongs to a man, and the woman housekeeper is just a housekeeper. What can she do if the man speaks? He could only reluctantly hand over the money box to Qi Baotian.
During this period, Wang Zhaodi still tried to persuade Qi Baotian not to accept his right to manage the money, but Qi Baotian turned a deaf ear to it, letting Wang Zhaodi say what he said, and refused to let go.
Qi Wang didn't disturb the husband and wife, and went back to his room directly.
The condition of the Qi family is quite good in the village. There are quite a few rooms in the house, enough for them to live in. Although the original owner works in the county town most of the time, he still has his room at home.
However, the original owner's room was not too big, except for a bed and a cabinet, there was nothing else. Qi Wang hid the money he had just cut off, and then lay down on the bed to rest.
At noon, Boss Qi and Zhang Shuniang came back with their three children, and the small courtyard of the farmhouse, which seemed a bit cold at first, became lively in an instant.
The two sons of Boss Qi are seven years old and the other is six years old. It is the time when cats hate dogs and they are the grandchildren of the Qi family. Both Qi Baotian and Wang Zhaodi dote on them very much, so they raise Became their lawless character.
Not long after Qi Wang lay down, the door of his room was pushed open from the outside, and two little boys, one tall and one short, broke in from the door.
"Second Uncle, you're back. Did you bring us anything to eat today? Did you bring me the peach blossom cakes I mentioned last time?"
