Chapter 37

Zhao Changqing's treat was undoubtedly quite successful. Just looking at the Chu brothers and sisters playing with Li Mingzhu until the evening, you will know that they have a good relationship with Zhao Changqing.-

Ling encouraged her daughter, "It will be like this in the future. Our family is not a stingy family. Just invite friends to play. Let the children walk more to get closer."

Zhao Changqing smiled, "I understand. The older I get, the more friends I will meet in the future. Mother, don't be annoyed."

Ling smiled and straightened the little beads between Zhao Changqing's hair, and smiled, "My daughter is promising. Who can be annoying to be a mother? It's too late to be happy. The Chu brothers and sisters are really similar."

"Yes, if you wear the same clothes and comb the same hair, it is difficult for ordinary people to distinguish." Zhao Changqing said, "I went to find Sister Chu before, and Brother Chu would talk to us if he was there."

Ling smiled, "It's good to have a good character." Originally, Ling thought that her daughter was treated for the first time and no one came, the Zhu sisters had to give her daughter a face. Unexpectedly, the Zhu sisters didn't come either! However, the young ladies from the general's mansion had no airs at all. This was the upbringing of a wealthy family! It was a hundred times better than those hypocritical scholarly families!

At this time, the mother and daughter were strangely in harmony. Zhao Changqing thought that the three Zhu Ling sisters and Zhao Feiyun were not coming, but the Chu brother and sister came. What Mr. Su said was indeed good. Zhao Changqing smiled, "I have a good relationship with Sister Chu and Brother Chu, and I am also very good with Sister Li."

Ling smiled, "All good kids, it's rare to make such good friends, you have to get along well." As Ling said that, Ling took out a small box from the makeup box, and opened it with a pair of small pink pearl earrings. Ling smiled, "You are getting older in the future, and these small jewelry must be worn."

Zhao Changqing took it and smiled and said, "It looks so beautiful." The pearl is not big, it is rare to be a small pink bead, water droplet-shaped and silver holder. It is not very expensive, but it is very lively and suitable for children to wear.

Ling replaced the thin jade earplugs that Zhao Changqing was wearing now, took a mirror to look at her, and said, "When I went to the shop, I saw something on the street. At that time, I thought, my daughter must look good. I wanted to give it to you, but I forgot it for a while. I will wear this when I go to the Zhu family with the old lady in a few days."

Zhao Changqing looked at himself in the mirror, and the fat little pearl pendant was touched by his hand. Zhao Changqing raised his eyes and looked at his mother and smiled, "Mother, I think this pearl is better than a golden pendant."

Ling smiled, "You little girls are at their lively age. One or two gold collars and bracelets are enough. What's the point of being full of gold and silver? It's not obvious that you'll burst. When you get older, you'll have to add a few good jewelry seriously at the age of Miss Chu."

Zhao Changqing responded with a smile.

Ling also instructed her to teach her a lot.

The next day, Mrs. Ling brought her three daughters to visit and asked Mrs. Zhao about her first. Then she followed Ling to the main courtyard to talk, and Zhao Changqing also followed her to accompany her.

Ling asked with a smile, "I haven't seen my sister-in-law for many days, how are my father and mother at home?"

Mrs. Ling smiled, "It's all good. Now, looking at August 15th, I know that my sister's house is not short of this, so I packed up some fruits and fruits to bring to my sister. I originally said that I asked your elder brother to come, but it happened that the government office recruitment office was going to take the exam, so I brought my elder sister and the others here."

Zhao Changqing took his sisters to eat some snacks, and then Ling asked, "Brother went to take the exam for the school? I just heard about it."

Mrs. Ling laughed, "He said he was not sure, so it was hard to tell me to talk about it, for fear that I would lose my face if I failed the exam."

Ling smiled, "What's wrong with this? My elder brother has been studying since he was a child, and has the reputation of a scholar. He has no clumsy work. If he could work as a bookkeeper in the yamen, copy and write, it would be exactly the same as his elder brother's temperament."

"My sister's words really touched my heart." Since she was separated, Mrs. Ling's mental outlook has been growing day by day, and she has evolved from a taciturn woman who was originally silent to a housewife with a splash. Seeing that Ling also agreed to her husband's examination for the licensing office, Mrs. Ling's face was a bit more lustful, and she laughed, "Oh, it's a long story. Actually, I've asked your elder brother to take the exam as a minor official. At the beginning, my father always held his anger and asked your elder brother to take the exam as a juren. I was afraid that it would ruin your elder brother's future. Now I'm just thinking about it. This juren is not allowed to take the exam.

It’s the most practical thing for people to eat. Our family’s spiritual energy was not born on your elder brother, nor on your younger brother-in-law, but on Teng Ge'er. My sister doesn’t know that Teng Ge'er has only been studying for a year. At first, she studied in the children’s class, but now the master has transferred Teng Ge'er to a better class. This child is really good." Compared to the resentment of Ling’s second wife, Ling’s third sister and daughter towards the eldest wife, Mrs. Ling rarely says that the second wife is not bad. She prefers to pick the old woman in her words.

Ling smiled, "Brother Teng is indeed very sensitive and is born to be a seedling of school."

Mrs. Ling laughed, "Yes, I'll tell you that you're going to take the exam for the Literature Office. My father is not happy to come. He is a scholar, and he says that the Literature Office is a low-level position and is not very decent. Besides, Brother Teng'er will be in the future for the imperial examination. He always feels that Brother Teng will get fame in the future. If there is an uncle who is a minor official, he will be afraid that his face will be bad. I'll ask Brother Teng. Brother Teng'er to persuade his father a few words, and his father will agree."

Ling was speechless and had to smile, "There are tenants in the house who are in charge of packing the rent, so it's better for brother to find a job."

"Yes." Mrs. Ling sighed, "If your elder brother knows some farming, I would rather take back the fields. The family that is close to our small village has 300 acres of land. The family has built a large courtyard with guarding the fields. It is very spacious in the countryside. When it is busy with farming, it will be more than 20% more than what we have to buy for tenants like us."

Ling asked with a smile, "Is it because my sister-in-law intends to move to the countryside with her family?"

Mrs. Ling smiled, "I just thought about it. Don't say that my father doesn't want it, even your elder brother is afraid that he will not want it."

Ling smiled, "Seeing that the elder sister and the others are older, they will reach the age of hiring in a few years. In the city, they will always find someone who is of equal status in the city. If they go back to the countryside, they will not be cheaper to say that they are hiring."

Mrs. Ling smiled, "Yes, alas, I'm used to living in the city."

Mrs. Ling nagged a lot and said goodbye after lunch.

The relationship between sister-in-law and sister-in-law is generally not very harmonious.

Ling's heart was still angry after a long time, and complained, "I have just been in charge of my family for a few days. I think your aunt wants to turn her family upside down."

Zhao Changqing felt something else, "The second sister is so edible. She ate two plates of snacks alone."

Ling even said, "When you have free time, don't say that you are serious and have a few girls, just keep thinking about the old house! Your second sister is fat, and now she is young, and she is still talking about a blessing. If you can't lose weight in the future, it will be difficult for her husband's family." In fact, Zhao Changqing also looks like a round and fat little, but, firstly, Zhao Changqing is only five years old, and it's nothing to be round; secondly, her own children always like her, not to mention that Zhao Changqing is already very happy.

Zhao Changqing smiled and advised, "Don't be angry, my aunt just now has to worry too much. After all, she is still afraid that her grandfather will pass all the private property to her cousin Teng." Only then can she come up with the idea of ​​moving to the countryside.

"But she has no son, so who will not pass the family business to Brother Teng?" Ling was upset when she thought about it and sighed, "When I was at home, I said that your aunt was petty and had to ask Brother Teng to plead with your grandfather for the sake of your uncle's examination of the licensing work. It's really... she can do it."

Zhao Changqing smiled, "Don't worry, Mother, Cousin Teng is not a good person. Don't look at the eldest aunt who is jumping up and down now, there are ten eldest aunts that are not enough for Cousin Teng's nail shots."

Ling smiled angrily, "Shut up, I'll just talk. You, a junior, are not allowed to say that to elders."

"Are I saying something bad?" Zhao Changqing smiled with his lips, his eyebrows and eyes curled, and he looked like a pleasing little. "My aunt is just for some small profits now, but she doesn't think about it. Cousin Teng has a good reputation. Who among the elders in the family doesn't say that he is promising? It's the eldest aunt. I don't know if she is confused or understands. While she is saying that Cousin Teng is promising, she also plots on him. She acts like this and dares to come out everywhere and yell. I don't know how many people laugh at her behind her back. Cousin Teng is just because of the difference in seniority and it's not easy to have anger. He really annoyed him. He guarantees that his aunt can't afford to take care of her." Mrs. Ling is simply an old birthday star who is a long-lasting person who eats arsenic and dares to tease Ling Teng.

Zhao Changqing laughed, "Mother, think about it, Cousin Ling has a good reputation, and the inspiration of studying has only been successful for several years. My aunt didn't win over him, and she still acted smart in front of him as a gun. Can he not know?"

The children are really amazing nowadays, all of them have become spirits. Ling Shi smiled, "You can understand, there is nothing Teng Ge'er doesn't understand?"

Zhao Changqing said again, "Mother, don't worry about my eldest aunt's affairs. I think you should prepare your eldest aunt to borrow money."

Ling was puzzled, "Where did this come from?"

Zhao Changqing said, "My uncle wants to be a clerk. My aunt just said that she had to take the exam to make a count. It can be seen that not only my uncle wants to be a clerk. Nowadays, there is no need for money to make a clerk. My aunt doesn't have to be stupid. I think that my uncle is a scholar and passes the exam, and that's not that good thing! If I don't have money, no matter how good my uncle takes the exam, it will be useless!" She still understands these tricks.

"My grandmother's family has just split up, and my uncle's family doesn't have much savings. I think my cousin and the others have started to learn to dress up now. My grandfather didn't want my uncle to go to the licensing office, so how could he pay him this money? Where my aunt can take the right money, except for her own family, it is our family." Zhao Changqing smiled, "If you don't believe that my mother will wait for two days, my aunt will have to speak."

Ling actually believed what Zhao Changqing said and sighed, "Our family just bought a few acres of land, and now we are in a tight position."

Zhao Changqing said, "It's nothing to lend it to my uncle's house. But if my mother lends it to my uncle, I have to be careful of my second aunt's words. I don't look like I can keep it a secret. Mother, you lend it to my uncle's house. Even if my second uncle doesn't say anything, my second aunt's personality will never care about it."

Ling sighed, "Your uncle and your second uncle are both the best people, but the marriage is not very good."

Zhao Changqing laughed secretly, not arguing. If the two uncles were really successful, they would not have married such two wives. Ling was biased towards his brother and never said that his brother was not right. He habitually put his shit on his two sister-in-law's heads.

Ling felt that her daughter was really smart, and she was just a guess. As expected, in just a few days, Uncle Ling came to the house and asked to borrow fifty taels. Ling almost didn't ask her brother to get a heart attack. It wasn't that she didn't have fifty taels at home, but she saw that there were many places to go to the house for gifts during the Mid-Autumn Festival, and her family had to live a life. On weekdays, even if her husband borrowed a few taels, Ling also talked a lot. Now that her brother came to borrow money, she still made such a big deal. Even if she was her own brother, Ling was shocked.

Uncle Ling is not good at speaking and is definitely an honest person. It is really the first time I spoke to my sister. Before she finished speaking, her face turned red. Compared to her brother, Ling was particularly agile. Ling asked, "I heard from my sister-in-law that my elder brother had the job for the study of the books a few days ago. My elder brother wanted to get a lot of money. If I had a lot of money, my sister would have it. I was not ruling with my elder brother, and most of the money at home was in the shop. If my elder brother was doing the bookkeeping, let me think of a way to tell my elder brother to take the mission."

Uncle Ling's face turned red and he flattered, "Yes, yes, yes, if you are tight, just forget it."

"Brother tell me how much money will it cost to complete the bookkeeping activity?"

Uncle Ling said, "It's less than 100 taels. Your sister-in-law has saved up fifty taels in her years, but it's still 50 taels away."

Ling nodded, "When will the eldest brother want this money?"

Uncle Ling said, "That's all these two days."

Ling said, "Cheng, brother, I will give me two days to raise money to see how much money I can collect."

Uncle Ling's eyes were full of gratitude, and Ling smiled, "Our brother and sister, our elder brother talked to his sister when he has difficulties, but he didn't treat his sister as an outsider. If I have difficulties, would the elder brother leave him alone? The whole family just needs to help each other."

After Uncle Ling finished speaking, he saw two more children and was about to say goodbye. Ling smiled, "Brother sit for a while, your brother-in-law is coming back just in time, and you get together less on weekdays. Finally, the elder brother is here, and you can drink a few drinks later."

Uncle Ling smiled and replied, "Okay."

Ling sent her brother to drink with her husband and went to Zhao Changqing's room to discuss the loan of money with her daughter.

Ling gritted his teeth and said, "Your aunt is not a real time. She has been married to your uncle for more than ten years. Can't she even get a hundred taels of silver? And your aunt's parents' home, on weekdays, your aunt always gets close to her parents' home, and when she borrows money, she only thinks of us coming."

Zhao Changqing poured tea to Ling and smiled and advised him, "Don't be angry, this matter is simple and simple. It is a good thing for my uncle to plan a dispute. There are too many relatives and brothers and sisters, so there is no reason to borrow it from our family. I asked me to ask my uncle to set up a table of wine at home. Tomorrow my mother and father come over and call my second uncle, and my aunt's brothers, how much money they have to spend, each family will pay. In this way, I don't have to worry about my second aunt knowing it."

Zhao Changqing immediately understood, and Ling pursed her lips and smiled, "What a clever one. I thought about it. Your uncle can borrow at most ten or twenty taels of taels, brother and sister, your uncle has never spoken to me, I can prepare these money. But I didn't expect that your aunt was so cruel and reluctant to leave, and it was only fifty taels of taels of salary for your father a month? The old lady in the family is getting older and you have to study and improve. What's not money for Brother Ning or Sister Rong? These fifty taels are really worth gritting her teeth. Now that you have this method, as long as they can spread it out, even if our family gets a few more, I would rather."

Gudong Gudong drank a cup of tea, and Ling touched Zhao Changqing's head and praised, "Sure enough, studying is to make people smart. You were also smart before. After reading books with Mr. Su for the past few days, you have improved even more." The money was not wasted!

Ling asked Zhao Changqing to rest earlier. She had to go over and discuss this idea with her elder brother, and then hurried away.

At night, after serving her husband to wash up, the more she thought about it, the more she felt that her daughter was smarter than ordinary people. She sighed again and again, "Our daughter is so smart! She is so fast that she can't do it! It's all because of studying."

Zhao Yong laughed, "My brother-in-law and second brother-in-law are also students."

Ling smiled, "Don't say such sour words, Brother Teng will be very smart in school. If we are a boy, I think we will never be worse than Brother Teng. Just wait until Brother Ning is older and has his sister as smart as he is."

Zhao Yong was extremely confident and said, "How bad can the siblings of his wife be together?"

"I'm going to say that," Ling laughed. "You've been busy these days. If you go back to the evening, you'll have already gone to my elder brother's place. I'll go there tomorrow. This time I'll tell you a brief moment. I'll think that it would be good if I could get ten taels from my second brother. My sister-in-law's family will have twenty taels. This time, my elder brother spoke. He is an honest man. We can get twenty taels at most. What do you think?"

Zhao Yong held Ling's plump waist with one hand and rubbed it slowly. He felt a little moved in his heart and agreed to everything, "Sure, just do it. Brother is doing serious things. We can take it, so it's nothing to have a few more."

Even though the old couple, Ling's cheeks were still slightly hot, and one hand slowly pushed her husband's chest, but was tied by Zhao Yong's arms, and his two hot bodies were closely linked together... In a short while, rapid breathing and charming moans sounded inside the room.

Zhao Rong was insomnia in the middle of the night because of the noise in the compartment. She tossed and turned and couldn't sleep. She couldn't bear it anymore and howled. Ling was awakened by Zhao Rong's cry and wanted to push her husband away to see the child. How could Zhao Yong stop at this time? He held Ling down and said hard. Fang Fu was lazy in the quilt, "Changqing already has his own house. You can't tell your mother, let Sister Rong leave her mother to raise her." Anyway, according to the master's words, no matter where the little girl is, he would not be able to see him this year. He saw less, and his feelings were much colder.

Ling spitted on her husband lightly, her face was still spicy, her waist was sore, her legs were weak, she put on a jacket and lit a candlestick and took it to the compartment, and asked, "But sister are hungry?"

"I used to never make trouble at night." The white woman coaxed Zhao Rong and stood up to hand Zhao Rong to Ling. Zhao Rong just took a few bites of milk and stopped eating. Ling touched her little face and said to the white woman, "Stop asking her to sleep during the day in the future."

The white woman agreed, and Ling returned to her house, but she didn't expect that she would be pressed into the quilt as soon as she blew the light on the kang. Ling beat Zhao Yong's strong shoulders and whispered, "You're not finished yet?"

In the blurry night, Zhao Yong's eyes were bright and he said, "It's all over."

"Give me some lightness."

"Affect the order."

Zhao Rong: I'd better go to the old lady's house.
