Chapter 65 Insufficient Greed
Xu Daoqing knew that he was not a seed for studying, and planned to rely on the shadow of his ancestors to become an official in the future.

Of course he knew that a serious imperial examination background was much better than this, and he was also respected, but he had a headache when he picked up the book, not to mention how painful it was.

What he is interested in is eating, drinking and having fun, and he doesn't need to pay for it at all.It's a pity that the imperial court didn't take these into consideration when selecting talents, otherwise Xu Daoqing would not have been able to be a Jinshi in the top two rankings.

But the Wei family obviously didn't understand this, and always thought that his son was no worse than others, and was even smarter in many ways.

Xu Daoqing knew that if he didn't divert the conversation, his mother would just keep nagging, so he said: "Do you know? The fifth child is going to marry, but there is one in the family."

Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, the eyes of Wei's mother and daughter immediately widened.

"Where did you hear it? Don't tell me someone made the rumor? How can anyone raise a daughter before they get married?"

"Who in this capital doesn't know?" Xu Daoqing sneered, "What master? What a decent man!"

"What is the background of the one he raised?" Wei Shi likes to inquire about the scandals of other people's families.

"It seems to be a singer." Xu Daoqing is not very clear, "I have accepted it for several years."

"Hey! Don't the old ladies and wives of his family try to persuade and take care of it? It's always ugly to say it." Wei Shi curled his lips.

She felt that she was much better than this pair of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. Although his son was naughty, he did not do such outrageous things.

"At first, I thought the Zheng family was not very good, but it seems that it is really run-down." Xu Chunsu said coolly.

"No matter how dilapidated it is, it's better than us." Xu Daoqing changed his posture and squinted his eyes. "The rotten boat still has three catties of nails. It can't be too shabby to marry a regular wife."

"Why, are you also thinking about Xu Chunjun's dowry?" Xu Chunsu asked him.

"What's it called?" Xu Daoqing sat up, "If you dare, you'll stare at me too! Tell you, don't meddle!"

"Mother! Look at him!" Xu Chunsu stomped his feet angrily.

"You all have a share," Wei said hastily, "the palms and backs of your hands are full of meat!"

"I don't care, anyway, mother will give it to me!" Xu Chunsu said arrogantly.

Xu Daoqing ignored her, the money was in Wei's hands, and he had to get it out and spend it soon.

Xu Chunsu hasn't discussed marriage yet, and when she leaves the cabinet, the money will have gone through several cycles.

"Speaking of which, this fifth child can be regarded as a cash cow for us." Xu Daoqing said to Wei Shi: "Give her a good face, don't make her too stiff."

After hearing this, Wei's face became hot, and he said, "This girl has her own ideas now! If you respect her again, I'm afraid she will be even more disobedient."

"That's not the way to say it," Xu Daoqing couldn't help feeling that his mother was a woman's opinion. "When she married, she would not be able to bear the grievances. Wouldn't she have to rely on her natal family? Besides, she always wants face? As long as you talk about her If she says no, she will have to walk around. Of course, this will only happen if she toasts and refuses to drink fine wine."

"My son, you are right." After hearing what his son said, Wei thought it was very reasonable.

Of course she is greedy for money, not to mention greedy for Xu Chunjun's wealth.

Xu Chunsu didn't object after hearing this. She took a lot of Xu Chunjun's clothes and jewelry before.

Thinking of Xu Chunjun as her future source of income, she felt much better, and the previous grievances disappeared without a trace.

"Speaking of which, your uncle, your father, and the others are all back now, and you should also take care not to run around like a wild horse. Be careful that if they bump into you one day, they will give you a few words at least. Wouldn't it be embarrassing for you?" Wei Shi half persuaded and half frightened his son.

She has always been like this, and she doesn't really use principles to educate her children, so that several of her children are born to learn to obey the evil and contradict the other, and double-decker.

"I didn't do anything out of the ordinary, I just walked around and made some friends." Xu Daoqing lied without blushing or heartbeat.

Xu Chunsu on the side couldn't help but rolled his eyes, but was immediately glared at by his brother.

"Stop making faces at me like killing a chicken and wiping my neck," Xu Chunsu said. "You say that in front of my mother and me. You really don't feel ashamed to panic!"

As she said that, she turned and went out, she remembered that the jeweled hairpin that Xu Chunjun wore on his head when he went to the banquet the day before yesterday was not bad.It's best to borrow it and wear it for two days. Of course, you don't have to pay it back if you borrow it.

As soon as Xu Chunsu left, it was exactly what Xu Daoqing wanted.

He immediately put on an aggrieved look and said to her mother: "Mom! I have spent all the money on me, so you can get me some more."

After hearing this, Wei couldn't help clutching the keys at his waist, and said in a low voice: "Little ancestor, how much money have you raised these days? Quickly save yourself!"

They have not been rich all these years, because when they went to Beijing, they tossed the storefront and most of the land, and distributed some money to each house, and the third house got more than 2000 taels.

In addition, after arriving in the capital, I searched a lot of things from Xu Chunjun, so I can be more generous.

But Xu Daoqing doesn't care about this, he is a born debtor.

He stood up and sat down next to his mother, and he was full of lies and uttered gaudy hype.

How could Wei Shi hold back his pleading, although his face was still tense, his heart was already active.

Finally, he said: "Your father will go to friends when he wakes up early, and the Mu family lives outside the city. You'd better pick him up, and show your filial piety, and shut up that person's mouth."

Xu Daoqing agreed very happily, and said, "I'll go right away, Dad's legs and feet are not good, and his eyesight is not good, so don't wait until it gets dark."

Wei Shi was naturally happy to see him like this, and said: "You are considered sensible and obedient, so go now."

The reason why Xu Daoqing deserved it was because he knew that he would naturally have to hire a carriage to go out of the city.Then there is a legitimate reason to take money from the mother.

"I'll go outside the door and hire a carriage first. There are only two cars in and out of our family now, and none of them are at home today. What's more, I went to Mu's house as a junior. It's always bad to go empty-handed. We should also get some gifts. That's right." Xu Daoqing is self-taught when it comes to defrauding his mother of money, and he has already practiced the ability to cheat his mother.

After hearing what he said, Wei Shi really didn't think that his son was cheating money.On the contrary, I am very relieved, feeling that my son is sensible and thoughtful.

When Xu Daoqing went out, he happened to meet Xu Chunsu who had gone and returned.Seeing the girl's face, she knew where she got angry.

It turned out that Xu Chunsu wanted to find Xu Chunjun, but Xu Chunjun happened to be talking with the second aunt and second sister-in-law.

It's not good for her to ask Xu Chunjun for things in front of these two people.

But when these two people talked, they would praise Xu Chunjun every few sentences, which made her very uncomfortable.
