Chapter 109 Zhao Chuanliang's Embarrassment
Wang Yaozu was a good-natured man who was lazy and did not do his job properly, but he came from a well-to-do family and wore a decent brocade robe, which made him look somewhat like a noble prince.
Shopkeeper Li was immediately frightened.
What? Talking about business with yourself?
This is something that shopkeeper Li has never dared to think about. This restaurant is run by his family and there is no owner behind it. The whole family usually works hard to support it.
Now that I have found this fruit wine recipe, not only has it brought me such good business, I have also found myself a favorable employer. Such good things have finally happened to me.
Shopkeeper Li immediately did not dare to delay and started chatting with Wang Yaozu.
Wang Yaozu is a typical second-generation ancestor who has no brains at all. He doesn't want to have too much communication with Shopkeeper Li and just wants to take him down quickly.
However, the price was finalized after a few words. He had never known the sufferings of the world, and the price he offered was much higher. Shopkeeper Li happily agreed.
After Wang Yaozu returned, he immediately told his father the news as if he wanted to take credit for it.
"Dad, isn't it because of the Huajian Restaurant's wine that Liu Shuwen is so good? Now I have found another restaurant whose new wine recipe is exactly the same as theirs, and the business is just as good. We have established cooperation with them."
Wang Yaozu said proudly.
Wang Yuanwai had a son. He had a lot of daughters in his family, but he only had one son. Naturally, it hurt him a lot. Hearing what he said, a smile immediately appeared on his face:
"Really? My son still has the ability. Son, let me tell you, there will be a literati poetry gathering here soon. You will also use these wines to entertain you. I am not afraid that I will not be able to find you a good teacher and classmate.
"
Wang Yuanwai had already known the news, but he knew his son's pain, so he never said anything.
Now when he heard his son say that he had found the same fruit wine, he immediately told him to let him take it seriously. Wang Yaozu actually smiled and kept saying that he understood.
But he himself didn't know that this wine recipe was completely incomparable with the Ji family's wine recipe.
——
A new round of conflicts broke out at the village chief's house.
Ever since Zhao Chuanliang came back from the city, the village chief's wife had been going out to have fun.
Although her family raised a scholar son, he was always away from home and lived at his mother-in-law's house.
This made her feel that her son was like a visiting son-in-law who was not very respectable. In addition, Zhao Chuanliang was instigated by his wife and did not like to come back very much, so she did not like to mention it.
But now that his eldest son's attitude showed that he treated them as a family and took the initiative to come back to seek justice, his thoughts became active again.
She began to walk among the villages, listening to everyone's flattery towards her, which made her feel so happy.
Zhao Chuanliang visited the Ji family for several days, and she didn't feel anything was wrong. After all, her relationship with the Ji family was there. Her son was interacting with a capable family, and it was too late for her to be happy.
After running for two days, Zhao Chuanliang said that his wife had prepared some small gifts and wanted to bring them back to his nephew, and drove the ox cart back to the city.
The village chief's wife scolded her and became even more dissatisfied with the daughter-in-law who didn't like to go back to the countryside.
She couldn't help but think that the woman had tricked her son into running back to the city, but she didn't expect that her son would indeed come back in the afternoon.
This time Zhao Chuanliang did as he said and bought a thin silver circle for Zhao Chuanyong's son.
When he got home, he handed it to his sister-in-law and spoke very beautifully.
"This is a small gift that I, as an uncle, have prepared for my nephew. I hope my brother and sister-in-law won't dislike it."
Liu Yuexiang took it over and put it away with joy. As soon as she got the silver circle, she felt that it was worth two ounces. A silver circle worth two ounces was no longer a small gift to their farmers.
She was also happy that Zhao Chuanliang valued her son so much, and she smiled and said:
"Brother, you're welcome. A person as young as Weiwei gives him such an expensive gift."
Her and Zhao Chuanyong’s son is called Zhao Jiawei.
Zhao Chuanliang struck while the iron was hot, and took some fabric from the car and handed it to the village chief's wife. He spoke in a high-sounding way, and put his hat high on the village chief's wife. He talked about how much she had given to the family.
The village chief's wife was very moved when she heard this, and saw Zhao Chuanliang taking out a bundle of tobacco leaves from the car for the village chief.
The village chief usually likes that, but now that Zhao Chuanyong has given birth to a grandson for him, he values his grandson more and thinks that it is quite economical to save money for his grandson to marry a wife.
The tobacco leaves in the cigarette bag are rarely taken out for smoking and are always saved.
Seeing that my eldest son was thinking about me so much, I felt a little touched.
He didn't say anything serious in front of his family, he just patted the boss on the shoulder to show his approval.
For a moment, everyone in the family was happy, except Zhao Chuanyong who narrowed his eyes.
He has always understood his eldest brother. He has always been shrewd when he was a child, thinking of tricking his parents into sending him to an academy. If it weren't for his lack of talent in reading, I'm afraid he would also plot against himself.
After marrying a woman from the city, he looked down upon his family even more and settled in the city for a long time. It was abnormal to stay at his house for a few days during this period. Now he is still being courteous to his family. Normally, he would not do such superficial things.
, to show hospitality for nothing, to be either an adulterer or a thief.
Zhao Chuanliang next to him was just as his brother guessed. When he saw that the whole family was happy, he smiled and said:
"It's embarrassing to say that as the eldest son, I have to hand over the responsibility of supporting my parents to my younger brother. As an older brother, I feel very ashamed when I think about it. Now I finally have the opportunity to be in the lap of my parents. My parents are happy.
I’m so happy! We are all a family, and no one can be closer than our family.”
As soon as he said these sighing words, he first got the approval of the village chief and his wife.
The village chief was even more relieved, "Your mother and I are very happy that you have such thoughts, Chuanliang. You are right. How can we be closer than people like us?"
The village chief was really happy because he didn't expect his eldest son to be much more mature than he thought.
Zhao Chuanliang felt that this was indeed the case.
When he puts a hat on a family like this, he is afraid that he will make some demands next. Isn't that what he has always been like? Once he asks for money, he will say some flattering words.
Sure enough, Zhao Chuanliang said a few more nice words, making the village chief and his wife laugh, then he coughed twice and talked about his difficulties.
It turned out that Zhao Chuanliang had given up the idea of getting a meritorious title since he had no hope of taking the exam and settled down to teach in the academy.
I originally wanted to be a teacher and be content with just settling down for a while, but I didn't expect that the two deans of the academy were transferred and preferred him and two other teachers.
There are only two places, which means that at least one of the three will be disappointed, but if there is money to support the two deans, there will definitely be a great chance.
