-------------------------------------------------- ——————————————————

On the last day of the three-day deadline given by Jin Xida, Zhen Dafu arrived just after Sishichu. This time, Mrs. Lin did not come, but Zhen Kebao and Zhen Keling followed.

Zhen Kebao is three or four years older than Shujie. He is in his teens this year. He looks pretty good, but he is short, more than half a head shorter than Shujie.

Zhen Keling is half a year younger than Shuyao, and because she is the youngest daughter of Zhen Dafu and his wife in their 40s, she is very spoiled, and at such a young age, she looks arrogant and defiant.

After entering the courtyard, Zhen Keling pouted: "Such a small courtyard! Oh, what is that, it's so dirty!"

A seven or eight-year-old maid hurriedly led Zhen Keling forward, and waved the champagne on her hand: "Girl, don't look, it's chicken feces, it's disgusting."

"Chicken—shit—?" Zhen Keling raised her small hand to cover her nose, "Is this a courtyard where people live?"

Shuyao and Shuwen finished the three big characters in the morning, and they were playing with Xiaoguai and Huohuo under the osmanthus tree with Xiutao and Qiutao. The study called out: "Brother, uncle is here to pay back the money."

Xiaoguai has a good memory, and when he saw Zhen Dafu, he stood in front of Shuyao and the others, looked at him warily, and growled.

The two servants who were carrying Zhen Dafu stopped in fright, but seeing that Xiao Guai showed no sign of rushing over, they bravely moved along the wall and into the courtyard, and finally did not throw Zhen Dafu off the sedan chair again.They had been here last time, and they knew that Xiaoguai would not get angry casually, if Lin hadn't screamed at Shujie last time, Xiaoguai would not have rushed forward so terribly.

Zhen Kebao looked at Xiaoguai and Huohuo fearfully and greedily: "The white tiger, it's really a white tiger! And the red fox, how valuable! Why did this poor cousin get it? Where did you get it? How nice to give it to him!"

Huohuo seemed to have seen what Zhen Kebao was thinking, the fox stared at him, and "squeaked" at him. A cold and harsh feeling made Zhen Kebao shiver involuntarily. Why did he have a feeling, That little fox was warning him?

In the eyes of people in this era, white tigers and red foxes are rare spirit beasts that are close to the fairy world and cannot be offended. Zhen Kebao retreated to the side of Zhen Dafu's sedan chair with a guilty conscience, not daring to look at them again. Fire to fire.On the contrary, Zhen Keling was attracted by the beautiful Huohuo and Xiaoguai, and wanted to run over, but was a little scared.

Hearing his sister's call, Shujie walked out of the study, and Sister-in-law Ajuan also came out of the tofu workshop, and said to Qiutao, "You go ask Qingfu to go, and go to Xu's mansion to invite Mr. Jin over."

Chunsheng was still helping at the pork stall at this time, and Qingfu was an apprentice in a blacksmith shop. Today happened to be a once-a-month rest day. I said earlier that if the Zhen family came over, they would call him. The people in the Xu residence knew Qingfu and Chunsheng. , They all helped to send tofu over there.

Qiutao ran out in response, Zhen Dafu didn't have time to stop him, so he hurriedly said to Shujie: "Brother Jie, why are you so ignorant? Who is Mr. Jin? Why bother him to go? We should For those who visited in the past, why don’t you go to Mrs. Xu’s greetings?”

Shuyao smiled: "Uncle, didn't Uncle Jin say that you can go directly to Xu Mansion to ask him to pay back the money? If you want to go, you can just go, why bother to come here?"

Shujie said: "That's right, Uncle Jin said, you come to pay back the money, just let us ask someone to notify him."

Zhen Dafu was at a loss for words, if he could go directly to Golden Tongue to get close to Xu Fu, why would he come to this courtyard where he had a conflict with him?

Going like this, handing over the bank note with one hand, and getting back the IOU with the other, wouldn't he send it to the door to make people laugh?In such an awkward atmosphere, how did he get close, how did he please Jin Tongue and Mrs. Xu?

That's why he came to Shujie and the three to coax them first, let them go to "visit" together, and then get to know and make friends with Jin Tongue and the people in Xu's mansion in the name of their uncle.

No, he brought his eldest son and youngest daughter. First of all, they are about the same age as Shujie and Shuyao, so they can get closer and talk to each other.Secondly, if Zhen Kebao can fall into the eyes of the golden tongue, or if Zhen Keling can please the third lady of the Xu family and become a handkerchief or something, the good life of the Zhen family will come, and the 2000 taels is worth paying.

Unexpectedly, the two brothers and sisters really don't show any respect, it's too shameful, and they treat him as an elder, an uncle?

At this time, Qiu Tao came back from Mrs. Ajuan's house: "Brother Jie, brother Qingfu has already rushed to Xu's residence. We just left when Uncle Xu (Carpenter Xu) rented a carriage to deliver woodwork to that street. Just take Brother Qingfu with you."

Zhen Dafu put on a serious face: "Brother Jie, go and stop him quickly, the three of you will go to Xu Mansion with us to visit."

Shujie glanced at him: "It's very impolite to come to the door rashly. Master Zhen deals with rich people every day in his business, so he should know this."

"You..." Zhen Dafu was angry.

Zhen Kebao frowned: "Shujie, how can I say that my father is also the direct uncle of Shuyao and Shuwen, and you are still a scholar and a scholar, how can you treat your elders like this? You have no father or mother now, my father, we The Zhen family is also your reliance."

He is really upset about reading books, isn't he only 15 years old?How come you are so tall and handsome?It seems that there is still an aura that makes people chill and dare not stare at him.

Shujie snorted coldly: "Rely on you? Rely on you to sell my younger brothers and sisters to others? Or rely on you to borrow money and not repay it, and come to ask for debts that don't exist at all. Master Zhen, you have also read books , You should know that according to the laws of the Great Zhou, I have reached the age of 15, and I can independently support the family, raise my younger siblings, and make decisions about our family. Don’t say that you are just uncle’s family, even our uncle and third uncle who have separated have no right to manage About our three brothers and sisters."

Zhen Kebao frowned: "You can eat indiscriminately, but you can't talk indiscriminately. When are we going to sell Shuyao and Shuwen? Also, don't you want to be famous? Disrespecting the elders and disregarding the reputation of relatives can make people Your brother's future and Shuyao's marriage are all in question."

Shujie sneered and said, "Don't you know that there is such a thing as 'elders are not kind'? On the day of our mother's funeral, Master Zhen and Mrs. Zhen stole things in our yard, and they colluded with the maid Cui Zhu to try to betray me. Brothers and sisters, this is something that many neighbors in the neighborhood have witnessed and heard with their own ears.
