Dressed as a little farmer's lucky treasure, God sends blessings and asks for forgiveness
Chapter 36 Treacherous
Zhao Yu had been panicked for a long time, but now she didn't know what to say.
It was at this time that she took advantage of the situation and snatched the silver from Zhao Shihui's hand, and the silver was finally returned.
Zhao Shihui wanted to snatch it back but was stopped by Zhao Guocheng, who shook his head at him.
Zhao Shihui was sulking alone, especially when he saw Zhao Youwen making faces and laughing, he became even angrier. His aunt was so shameless that she actually snatched the money from a child like him.
The scene was really chaotic.
Zhao Dagen asked Zhao Guochang what happened to the silver.
Zhao Guochang explained hurriedly.
"Dad, Mom, things are not what you think." Zhao Guochang said as his mind raced.
"Then explain it to me." Zhao Dagen said angrily.
Everyone was quiet now, wondering what was going on.
Zhao Guochang is obviously rich, so why does he still ask his family for money?
Only Zhao Guocheng's family looked at the third brother in disbelief, "Make it up! Keep making it up!"
"I actually borrowed this money. A friend invited me to dinner before I came back, but I didn't know his purpose was my manuscript. So he wanted me to review a copy of my exam manuscript. In addition to giving me six taels of silver as the money for the manuscript, he was also willing to lend me money. I was also obsessed with it, thinking that my family was in a difficult situation and I had run out of money, so I agreed. This is the money he lent me. If you don't believe me, the IOU is still here." After Zhao Guochang finished speaking, he took out the IOU from his sleeve.
This is an IOU for twenty taels of silver.
"Twenty taels was borrowed, and the other eight taels includes six taels of silver from the sale of the manuscript, and the remaining two taels is the remaining money from previous expenses." Zhao Guochang blurted it out all at once, and no one knew whether what he said was true or false, but twenty taels was indeed written on the IOU.
Zhao Shiying looked up at the sky and blinked, helpless. This man was too good at making excuses.
In the eyes of Wang Ronghua and Zhao Guocheng, this expression was just rolling their eyes.
Then they understood that the younger girl knew that the third brother was lying.
In fact, what Zhao Laosan said was half true and half false. Selling the manuscript was true, but he got 26 taels of silver from it, and 2 taels were the remaining money. As for the IOU, it was forged by Zhao Laosan.
The more Zhao Chen thought about it, the angrier she became. Damn Third Brother, he had money on him but still came back to ask for money. When she thought about the one or two taels of silver she had buried under a tree at the entrance of the village disappearing, she was so angry that her teeth were itching.
He wished he could snatch the silver from Zhao Guochang.
Now I really hate Zhao Guochang.
He has so much silver on him, and he still has money to come back and eat their flesh and drink their blood. This is not going to let their first wife live.
"Heh~ Didn't the third brother say that he had used up all the silver he brought? Now he says he has two taels left. Since there is silver left, and you have the money from selling the manuscripts, and someone has lent you so much money, why didn't you tell me before?" Zhao Chen said with a look of disbelief in her face. Her tone was aggressive, and one could clearly feel Zhao Chen's resentment.
"Sister-in-law, you don't know. We didn't tell anyone because we don't have enough money. If our family can give us some, we'll take it. If not, we'll think of other ways to get it together. With this money, we can see if we can finalize the task in advance. Isn't the whole family here today? So we're telling you first so that everyone can come up with an idea. If they really don't give us anything, we won't say anything. I'll shamelessly go back to my parents' and borrow some money from my parents, and we'll be able to get through this difficult time." What Zhao Yu said sounded nice. It was an explanation and a disguised way of saying that the family would give if they could, and if they couldn't, they would find a way themselves.
"Since you said so, I will be frank with you. You all know the situation of our eldest branch. We have many children and Guoguang is not here. We can't count on him. We also contributed to the tuition for the third child's studies. Don't kick us out when you become rich in the future. After all, it's not that we don't help, but we ourselves don't have the money. Guoguang sold himself to pay back the money. Our eldest branch is having the hardest time now." After saying this, Zhao Chen started crying and wiping her tears.
The children of the eldest wife also felt the same way, and when they talked about this, they thought of their father.
Zhao Dagen nodded.
"What the eldest brother's wife said is right. You all know the situation of the first house. It's hard for them to protect themselves, so the third brother shouldn't think too much. Brothers should tolerate each other. As for the silver you mentioned, we really can't come up with much money in the old house for a while. Fortunately, you have some money on hand, so use it first, and we'll talk about the rest later. These days, when we have time, we can go dig bamboo shoots and pick mushrooms, and then sell them for money.
At this point, I have to say that it is not easy for the second brother's family either. The bamboo shoots and mountain products that are dug in our village are sold to the second brother. The second brother really needs cash. There are always people in the village who go to his house to sell bamboo shoots, so he must pay. It takes a lot of time to go back and forth, and the profit is not much. In addition, they didn't get anything when they split up the family. Now they have to rely on themselves for everything. It is normal that they can't take out extra money to help the third brother.
Third brother, you can't complain. After all, it's not just your own efforts that got you through the exam. Everyone else helped a lot, too. Whether it was money or household chores, the first and second wives helped you share the burden." Zhao Dagen sat there and spoke for a long time.
Everyone heard it and understood it.
"Dad, don't worry. How could I forget my roots and my brothers? I know what you said and I won't blame anyone." The third brother, Zhao Guochang, shook his head and breathed a sigh of relief. The matter of the silver was finally over.
Wang Ronghua frowned. The third brother had clearly already found a job, but he still lied and wanted to collect money to buy a house. He was really cunning.
If she didn't speak out about this, she would feel depressed.
But if she says it without any evidence, no one will believe her, and she will be in a difficult situation and things will become awkward.
Wang Ronghua frowned and thought.
Zhao Guocheng believed the explanation of the third brother, Zhao Guochang, but was puzzled as to why the third brother refused to tell his family after finding a job.
If you can't afford to buy a house, just rent it. Why do you have to buy one?
He couldn't figure out many problems and felt that the third brother had changed.
Just when Wang Ronghua and the others had not figured out how to make the third brother expose himself, Zhao Dagen waved his hand and asked Zhao Guocheng and the others to go home first.
Anyway, dinner was already over and it was getting late.
The key point is that Zhao Shiying fell asleep.
Wang Ronghua was eager to leave. She didn't want to get involved in the affairs of the old house anyway.
As long as it doesn’t involve their second wife, they don’t care what shit he does.
So he happily took his family home.
Zhao Bai asked Zhao Chen to take a few maids to clean up the dishes.
Zhao Dagen glanced at Zhao Guochang, and the two went directly to the upper house.
As for what Zhao Dagen asked Zhao Guochang and what Zhao Guochang said to Zhao Dagen, no one knows.
But the next day, Zhao Guochang left with the people from the third room.
He said he would come back in a few days to entertain the village chief and villagers.
......
The next day, Wang Ronghua and others went to sell mountain products and bamboo shoots early. After buying some things, they drove the ox cart to Wangjia Village.
As soon as I arrived at the entrance of the village, I saw that it was very lively. Many people from the village came out. I didn’t know what was going on in the middle of the village.
Wang Ronghua urged Zhao Guocheng to drive the ox cart faster.
