I go to the ancient imperial examinations

Chapter 52
Old man Zhan looked at the dejected elder son, and then at Li Shi and Zhan Feiyu who were watching coldly, and smoothed things over, "The second son's family, 500 taels is too much, and your elder brother can't afford so much money."

The Zhan family has no family division, Dalang Saburo is studying or getting married, the money is all out of business, the second child is injured and needs to be raised, the family will definitely take the money, 500 taels Little Yao dare to say, old man Zhan dare not listen.

If this is spread out, what will Dalang and the others say about kissing in the future?The eldest brother of the second family has a big mouth. With such a mother-in-law, who would dare to marry a girl.

"Father, I'm not an unreasonable person." Xiao Yaoshi glanced at Old Zhan dissatisfied. The head of the house was right. Father is talking to the big room now, and he will not know how to be partial in the future.

Thinking about it this way, Xiao Yao became even more determined to ask for money, "Brother and sister-in-law signed an IOU, and they can always pay back a little bit a year. Dad, my head was almost killed by a small fish. Is it true that I have a life?" Isn't it worth 500 taels?"

Looking at the old doctor's speechless appearance, the old man Zhan, who was questioned by his daughter-in-law, felt ashamed, but he also knew Xiao Yao's urination, so he could only put on the air of being a father-in-law and give the result in a final word.

"Second brother, you can't tolerate this matter, 500 taels is too much, I, the father, make the decision, let the boss pay you 100 taels of silver."

100 taels of silver is not a lot. The Zhan family is not divided, and the eldest is digging food in the fields. Over the years, he has saved up to ten taels of private money at most. Because Zhan Feiyu is studying, this private house is probably used almost the same up.

Old man Zhan prefers the second room, and he is angry that Zhan Feiyu has seriously injured the old man Zhan. In addition, compared with the unreasonable Xiao Yao, the husband and wife in the big room are honest people. Only old man Zhan dares to say that, when eating persimmons, you always have to pick soft ones. .

Although 100 taels is a lot, Boss Zhan thought that as long as he opened up a few more acres of wasteland, he would go to the county to find some part-time workers when he was free, and Mrs. Li would weave more and dig herbs in the mountains.

Next year, when Xiaoyu's writing is good, he can copy books. The family can save money after working for a few years. The second brother is also an unreasonable person. He will not force himself to pay back the money immediately.

"Father, it's only 100 taels according to your order." Boss Zhan nodded gratefully, and his father was after all towards him.

Zhan Feiyu rolled his eyes speechlessly. Father was still so grateful to Dade, thinking that the 100 taels came from the flood.

"I don't agree. Whoever wants to give this silver will give it to me. Xiaoyu and I will not agree." Li Shi said coldly.

Seeing that Boss Zhan's expression changed from astonishment to anger, Mrs. Li sneered. She had known for many years that Boss Zhan was a blessing in disguise.

"The second child was killed by the little fish, Mrs. Li, why don't you agree?" Mrs. Zhan, who had not spoken for a while, glared at Mrs. Li, her eyes fierce as if she wanted to eat people.

From the day Li entered the door, she didn't like the eldest daughter-in-law. She looked kind and gentle, but she was actually a traitor. The old lady Zhan had an old face and hated Li and Zhan Feiyu. They were the only ones in the whole Zhan family. The mother and daughter are the most disobedient.

Li patted Zhan Feiyu's head, and looked at the ruthless old lady Zhan, and the equally sullen old man Zhan, "Father and mother, go to the village and ask to see if the village leader and the old patriarch will agree. Will you agree?"

The village Zheng drove the Hu family's carriage back to the village yesterday evening. Presumably, the village knew about the injury of Zhan's second child. Xiaoyu's rescue was a kind deed, and Zhan's second child's injury was an accident. , Muramasa and the old patriarch would not agree.

In recent years, it is rare for a good seedling to read in the village. This is the confidence that Li dared to refuse.

Boss Zhan saw his father and mother's ugly expressions, and his second sibling was full of anger, so he could only yell at Mrs. Li angrily, "You can't calm down, the old two are still lying in there! I said 100 taels and 100 taels." two!"

"Father." Zhan Feiyu was about to speak, but was stopped by Li.

Although he has never read a book, Mrs. Li knows how important a scholar's reputation is, and there are some words that Xiaoyu can't say, "Shouldn't Xiaoyu save people?"

Li sneered at Boss Zhan and sneered, "If you want to be a good old man, you can do it, and if you don't want your family to be in peace, then we will reconcile. I will take Xiaoyu to settle the bill, and the money you earn in the future will be paid to the second child. , in the future, I will make cattle and horses for the second room, and let your two nephews give you the care of you, throwing pots and raising flags."

Li's voice was as cold as a knife, and he peeled off Boss Zhan's face and stepped on it. He didn't want his family to be uneasy, so he gave in and suffered a loss, but why!Over the years, Mrs. Li has had enough. She can endure it herself, but she will never let her daughter swallow her anger.

"Mother, the old patriarch said that he can adopt me to the fifth grandpa's branch." The unbearable Zhan Feiyu rudely made a knife, and successfully saw the angry expressions of old man Zhan and old lady Zhan.

As for her father, don't overdo Zhan Feiyu, if you keep breaking it, you will suffer from chaos!
Xiao Yao's last night guarded Zhan's second child and said what she said for a long time. She had long thought that her sister-in-law would not agree, but she had already asked for a countermeasure from Zhan's second child.

"Brother, it's better to have a dog than to have a daughter. At least Rhubarb can guard the hospital." Xiao Yao pouted in disdain, mocking the ugly and painful Boss Zhan.

"Big brother, it's not because I am a younger brother and sister, and Xiaoyu doesn't care about the elders of the family because he can read. If I were a big brother, I would go to the yamen to sue her for disobedience and unfilial piety. She was so vicious at a young age, so I won't break it now. , I don’t know what big disasters will be caused in the future, and it will be too late to regret it when the whole family is harmed.”

Without waiting for Boss Zhan to speak, Mrs. Li pointed her finger at Mrs. Li, "Sister-in-law, you taught Xiaoyu to be so vicious, right? It is said that a husband and wife are blessed for a hundred days, and the sister-in-law talks about He Li all day long, and the second child hurts. If it's like this, should I also learn from sister-in-law and Li?"

"The second child, what nonsense are you talking about!" Mrs. Zhan shouted sharply, staring at Xiao Yao Shi who was open-mouthed with warning eyes. If she dared to apologize to the second child, Mrs. Zhan could kill her.

For 500 taels of silver, Xiao Yao dared to pierce the sky. Besides, the head of the family also supported him. Xiao Yao was not afraid of the mother-in-law Zhan at all.

"Mother, I'll leave my words here. Big brother won't lose any money. I'll go back and pack up and go back to my mother's house. The head of the family has become like this. There's no big shit. It's me who suffers and suffers!" Speak harsh words.

Old man Zhan had a gloomy old face, and became more and more dissatisfied with Li Shi. The boss agreed to give 100 taels, but Li Shi became fussy again.

Looking at the little Yao Shi who was about to make trouble with Heli, the old man Zhan was also a little dissatisfied, but he didn't dare to speak harshly to her. Although Heli hurt the woman more, the second child is now in such a serious condition that he has to eat The medicine is kept, and there are two sons. Zhenhe has left, and the family can't afford the money for the second child to marry again.

"Miss Li, I shouldn't have let the boss marry you in the first place!" Mrs. Zhan squeezed out the words between her teeth, wishing she could tear up the mother and daughter of the Li family.

But looking at the indifferent eldest daughter-in-law, Mrs. Zhan looked at Mr. Zhan, wiping her tears and choked up: "Boss, I'm sorry for you, let you marry such a troublemaker, and I'll hurt you without giving birth to a son. The second wife and I are separated, and the mother has no face to meet the ancestors of the Zhan family."

"Mother..." Boss Zhan quickly supported the grieving old lady who was crying.

Without a son, Boss Zhan couldn't raise his head in the village. He didn't blame Mrs. Li, and his parents didn't say anything, but Mrs. Li?I don't know how to be considerate of the family at all, but instead, I want to be strong everywhere, making the family uneasy.

"It's your mother who's sorry for you, it's your mother who's not good." Madam Zhan cried while hugging her eldest son, and the crying Boss Zhan also became uncomfortable, and became more and more dissatisfied with Mrs. Li.
