Chapter 33 The Dong Chuang Incident
There was an episode before going to bed at night. The fourth aunt came to visit. She entered the house and closed the door. She came to Mrs. Chen and whispered outside the window for a while.
"Second sister-in-law, do you know?" That's what the fourth aunt said.
Zhu Ping'an felt speechless. You, Mao, didn't say anything. He came up and asked you if you know. What do I know? You didn't say anything.
"What?" Mother Chen put down the soles in her hands and asked.
As the saying goes, don't hit the smiling person. Although the relationship between Mrs. Chen and her fourth aunt and her sister-in-law is not very harmonious, they are a family after all, and Mrs. Chen is also very good-tempered when her fourth aunt comes to visit.
"Just now, I saw my sister-in-law asking for two pieces of money from my parents' room." The fourth aunt looked out the window mysteriously and then whispered.
"What?" Mrs. Chen raised her voice when she heard this, obviously stimulated by the fourth aunt's words. Two taels of silver is not a small sum of money. Two taels of silver is enough for the family for half a year.
Shh
The fourth aunt hurriedly put her hand to her mouth to signal her mother, Chen, to whisper so that her mother-in-law, Mrs. Zhu, would not hear her. Then she spoke angrily, "No, that's not the case. When I first heard about it, I was the same as you, why can my boss ask for so much money from my mother? Then, what did you say?”
"What?" Chen was very cooperative.
“My sister-in-law told my mother that my eldest brother was going to the county town to meet friends for a few days to study. She said that my friend’s mentor was a teacher at the county school. She also said that my friend’s mentor might participate in the next college examination. "Here." Xiao Si Shen whispered to Chen.
Hearing this, Chen's eyes narrowed slightly. This was Chen's habit when thinking about problems.
“Tell me, your eldest brother, eldest sister-in-law, and her in-laws’ family didn’t work together to deceive us. They said that my eldest sister-in-law’s family provided all the money for Jun’er to study, but in the blink of an eye, my eldest sister-in-law asked for two from my mother. Two silver coins , give her in-laws a tael of silver, and they will leave a tael of money for their private house."
Ms. Chen smiled reluctantly, "No, mother, they are not unreasonable."
When the fourth aunt saw that her mother, Chen, was unwilling to come forward, she chatted casually for a while and found an excuse to go out. It seemed that she was going to see the third aunt.
Zhu Ping'an listened on the side and was really impressed by his uncle. Based on his understanding of his uncle and aunt over the past few days, this matter must have been the uncle's idea in all likelihood. First of all, Ask the in-laws to come up with it, and then ask for money from my grandmother in the name of meeting friends for a study tour. In addition to returning the money to the in-laws, there is still something left over.
He moves around day and night, with his left hand in and his right hand out. The uncle is indeed the only scholar in the family, and he keeps the family entertained.
However, the uncle is also a little impatient. Brother Jun has only been in school for a few days, and the uncle's attempt to do this will definitely make people suspicious. Although his mother, Mrs. Chen, reluctantly smiled and said no, she must be thinking about it in her heart. The fourth aunt was equally suspicious. If the uncle had waited a year and a half, there would definitely be no trace left if he used this hand again.
The parents are short-lived, and the family is going to be lively again.
Not to mention how the fourth aunt, her mother and the third aunt dealt with it, Zhu Ping'an rode the old scalper out again after breakfast at dawn. This time, in addition to yesterday's fish basket, he also secretly brought some salt and salt from the kitchen. The seasonings were placed in a shabby purse sewn by Chen and hung around her waist.
I came a little early today. When Zhu Pingping stuck his butt and tied the old scalper, the school had not started yet.
The master has a legacy from the Wei and Jin Dynasties. He wore wide clothes and wide sleeves and carried an ancient book. He climbed up the stairs from the hillside and saw Zhu Pingan tying the cow to the tree with his buttocks stuck out. It turns out that the naughty boy who has been playing watering the stones in school these days is a little shepherd boy. Watering the stones will make them blossom. At a playful age, it is quite interesting.
Zhu Pingan realized that when the Master passed by, he had already entered the bamboo forest.
“When people are born, their nature is good. Their natures are similar, but their habits are far apart. If you don’t teach, your nature will change. The most important thing in teaching is specialization.”
As soon as the master entered the private school, the sound of reading could be heard in the private school, and the children were shaking their heads while reading and reciting the Three-Character Sutra.
Take lessons and practice calligraphy.
Time passed slowly, and the sun gradually rose higher and higher. Without any cover, Zhu Pingan was sweating a little from the sun, and his face was covered with sweat. Sliding down, sliding down, sliding down again
Zhu Pingan, who was studying hard, felt something was wrong. Why did he sweat so much today? It was hot but he didn't sweat so much in the past.
Zhu Pingan looked up and saw a quirky little lolita with a wicked smile on her face, holding her own bamboo tube filled with water and dripping it on her forehead drop by drop.
It's this shady little loli again, Li Shu.
"Aha, you are eavesdropping on Master's lecture. I've discovered it. I want to tell Master." Li Shu grabbed Zhu Pingan's handle, and threatened Zhu Pingan in a low voice with her eyes full of joy. She watched with little short legs. I have to rush into the private school.
I have to say that Zhu Ping'an was caught in a weak spot by the scheming little Lolita. He didn't dare to take the risk and had no choice but to give in.
"No, no, no, no," Zhu Pingan hurriedly grabbed the hand of the black-bellied little Lolita and pulled her short legs.
The scheming little loli was extremely satisfied when she saw Zhu Pingan's scared look.
"If you say you don't want it, then I don't want it. Hum, if you say you don't want it, I just want it."
The scheming little lolita is just willing to see this little bastard look scared, let you bully me, let you Try to be clever so that you don't flatter me, huh!
"Little Beauty" Zhu Pingan put his hands together and made a petition.
The little beauty snorted softly, cursing in her heart, only now did she realize that I am a little beauty!
So, although the black-bellied little loli shouted on her face that I just wanted to tell the master, she was beautiful in her heart.
"It's really pitiful. Okay, okay, because you're so pitiful, I won't tell the wife yet." The arrogant and arrogant nature of the sinister little loli was fully exposed, and her superiority was like giving alms.
However, the scheming little lolita is also very scheming. She just promised not to tell the master first, which means that if someone is unhappy, she may tell the master in the future.
When people are under the eaves, they have to bow their heads. Under the threat of the scheming little Lolita, Zhu Ping'an had no choice but to bow his head. Who let himself be caught by this stinky girl?
“I don’t like it here.” Li Shu, a scheming little lolita, raised her head and said arrogantly. She walked out of the bamboo forest with her hands behind her back and her short legs.
Zhu Ping'an followed obediently, looking at the arrogant and arrogant little lolita in front of him, he suddenly had the feeling that he would become famous when he grew up, and he would take this arrogant and stinky girl as his concubine in the eleventh room. , but the bad thoughts of bullying.
Of course, this thought only passed by for a moment. Marrying this quirky, arrogant, willful, gold-worshipping, snake-hearted girl into your home would definitely make you uneasy, and you didn't want to be the unlucky one.
"Why are you so slow? Do you want me to tell the master?!" Seeing Zhu Pingan follow slowly out, the scheming little loli immediately raised her eyebrows coldly and threatened.
Sure enough, the scheming little loli is the least cute. (End of this chapter)
