It's hard to be a prodigal

Jiang Zong took the letter and read it for a long time, still puzzled, picked up a pen and wrote another line, and handed the paper back behind the curtain.

While the people inside were reaching for the letter, Jiang Zong leaned over and grabbed his wrist, quickly pressed it to his lips and kissed him, then opened the curtain.

Le Lian sat cross-legged behind the curtain, his indifferent expression changed to panic, and then turned to anger. Jiang Zong grabbed his wrist and kissed him. He withdrew his hand forcefully and rubbed it against his clothes.

Mr. Mingli was frightened and hurried out of the private room.Suddenly the room was quiet, only Jiang Zong and Le Lian were left in the private room.

Jiang Zong raised the corners of his lips, looked down at Le Lian from a high position, squatted beside him, curled up a lock of his hair with his fingertips, and teased softly: "You know better than me whether I am ashamed or not, little official."

He was very familiar with that handwriting. When he was doing business with Le Lian in his previous life, such sharp and capable handwriting was always on the receipts.

"Are the snacks delicious?" Jiang Zong asked him, holding his chin, holding the letter he had just written between his fingertips, and the flowing handwriting on the paper dangled in front of Le Lian's eyes.

Le Lian frowned tightly, stood up suddenly, grabbed Jiang Zong, picked up his own knife, led Jiang Zong out of the window, and coldly pulled Jiang Zong's wrist until he entered an empty alley. open hands.

Before Jiang Zong could speak, Le Lian accused him coldly, "It's dirty there."

Le Lian in the previous life was so incomprehensible, stubborn and rigid, Jiang Zong leaned against the wall indifferently, tilted his head and said, "Boy, you're still in charge of me. Let me ask you, you entered the brothel through the window just to find I?"

Le Lian was stunned suddenly, he just saw Jiang Zong on the road, and followed him for no reason, seeing him and the young man making love through the window, he just felt uncomfortable all over.

Jiang Zong lowered his head and whispered in his ear, "We grown men have to vent our anger, otherwise it will be bad for our health. In this way, if you do it with me twice, I won't go to Maple Leaf Residence, how about it?"

He suddenly thought of pressing his opponent from the previous life on the bed.

Because this cold-faced little old-fashioned is a bit heart-warming, and watching him lying under his body moaning in boredom and helplessness is really exciting.

As expected, Le Lian looked at Jiang Zong with a nauseous and astonished expression, his lips trembled for a long while without saying a word, turned around and left.

Jiang Zong thought it was interesting, followed him to tease him: "I will treat you well."

Le didn't even look back, and said coldly: "Get lost."

Normal people find it hard to talk about bed issues outside. I don't know how Jiang Zong can be so bold and outspoken. He dares to say such frivolous things in person. Doesn't he feel ashamed?

Jiang Zong squinted his eyes to watch him go away, his back was pitiful and funny, his face had been lost in his previous life, and he was so short of molesting a brat.

Jiang Zong didn't dare to say anything because he was too cold and fierce to his family in his previous life. If Le Lian was so innocent in the past, and he couldn't help leaning towards his side while talking, Jiang Zong would definitely fuck him until he couldn't get out of bed, never again. Dare to put on a cold face with yourself.

The two walked towards each other, Le Lian went back to his narrow courtyard, Jiang Zong wandered around doing nothing, and went to Zongheng's pawnshop to check.

These days, Jiang Heng was busy tidying up the pawnshop. Seeing that the pawnshop was neatly arranged, Jiang Heng was tiptoeing to dust the antique shelf with a small feather duster, his brows were knit together, unhappy.

Jiang Zong felt something was wrong.

It is said that he lost a lot of money today, so something good should happen to him.

"Fuck!" He suddenly took out the small wooden box containing the bracelet from his arms and looked through it, feeling a chill in his heart.

Good guy, there is a row of clear water and green small egg noodles embedded in the box. The bracelet is a defective product.

Take a closer look at this little box, isn't this fucking yellow rosewood?

At least it is worth 5000 taels of silver.

"Fuck, fuck, bloody bad luck!" Jiang Zong threw it out with hot hands, "Quick, throw it out quickly."

Unexpectedly, as soon as the box left his hands, the shopkeeper Qiu from the lumber shop happened to pass by. Seeing Master Jiang throwing something over, he thought he wanted to give it to him, so he picked it up and weighed it. : "Hey! Master Zong! Where did you get the good stuff? Do you want to sell it? What do you think of 7000 taels?"

Jiang Zong was stunned on the ground.

Shopkeeper Qiu was afraid that he would go back on his word, so he hurriedly told the servants beside him: "Hurry up, go get the bank notes, there is a money bank right next to it."

"Hold it well!" Shopkeeper Qiu opened a receipt, stuffed it into Jiang Zong's hand along with the bank note, and happily left with the wooden box.

Seeing Jiang Zong standing outside, Jiang Heng heaved a sigh of relief, handed a silk book to Jiang Zong, and said with a mournful face, "It's all because of Second Uncle's blind business, you see, this special offer of honey fell to our family, Second Uncle told you to take care of this job, he just bullies us because we have no father and can't be the master!"

Jiang Zong sat on the ground wearily, he guessed it was too bad luck.

If you want to contract the Jinshuishan beekeeping house, you can’t just hire a few households, you have to contract the entire beekeeping house on the top of the mountain. There is no negotiation if there is no 10 taels. No matter how much you ask for, it is only five thousand catties. Even if the price of the special supply is high and the profit is high, it can hardly be worth the money lost by the remaining five thousand catties of honey accumulated in your hands.

When Jiang Heng saw the bank note in his hand, he was a little happier: "Where did the money come from?"

Jiang Zong pulled his hair and said miserably: "Your brother took his life for it."

Jiang Heng laughed dryly: "Ah, have you gone to entertain?"

Jiang Zong: "Go away."

Looking at it this way, if you bought a treasure box at a bargain price and it was offset by the special offer of honey, then the shopkeeper Qiu spent money to buy the box just now, making Jiang Zong earn 5000 taels, and there is still a bloody disaster to offset.

"It's really a crime." Jiang Zong threw the banknote to Jiang Heng as if it was hot, and hurried back to the pawnshop to hide, fearing that something might happen.

In this life, he really didn't want to care about so much, and he turned a blind eye to the dirty tricks played by the second uncle in private. The second uncle was determined to add trouble to himself. Jiang Zong took over the business in the palace. Thinking about the inhuman things done by his second and third uncles in his previous life, Jiang Zong was annoyed, and his tolerance limit for his second uncle became lower and lower.

At this time, a young man dressed as a guard came in with a bamboo flute to pawn.

Jiang Heng greeted him politely: "Brother, we haven't opened yet."

Jiang Zong sat on the chair and drank tea, and accidentally looked up at the bamboo flute in the young guard's hand. It seemed to be cut from new bamboo, and the workmanship was very rough. No one would pick up this kind of thing when it was thrown on the ground. Come to pawn.

His eyes suddenly lit up, and he called the guard: "Brother, stay a step, I see that the bamboo flute in your hand is very powerful, and it is really a peerless masterpiece. Give me 5000 taels, and no interest will be charged! Jiang Heng, take the money, hurry up!" , I won’t make it any later.”

When he said this, the little guard was also a little confused, and handed the bamboo flute to Jiang Heng in a daze: "Then, thank the shopkeeper."

Jiang Zong breathed a sigh of relief, and he hurriedly gave away the hot 5000 taels he had earned, which should be able to offset the bloodshed.

-

The 5000 taels that Jiang Zong invested really offset a bad luck. The higher-ups issued an order, saying that the sympathetic Jiang family may not be able to bear the special supply of honey alone, and ordered the Le family to bear half of it. Can.

It is said that it is a joint operation, and the two families jointly undertake it, but the beekeeping house in Jinshuishan is built there, and the two families just send a few people to the mountain to supervise the work, and stay there for a month or so.

This kind of thankless hard work was all pushed to Jiang Zong by the second uncle of the Jiang family, and the Le family naturally pushed it to the unfavored Le Lian.

Several old ancestors in Jinzhou left a rule that if anyone's family takes over the business of special offerings from the royal family, they must organize a banquet to celebrate their family's honor of being a holy family.

Three days later, the Le family and the Jiang family jointly organized a banquet, hoping that the business would go smoothly.

The two families set up dozens of tables in the Yingchun Building. The upper and lower floors of the Yingchun Restaurant were all full, and many officials were invited in the private room. The second uncle and the third uncle were busy greeting all the guests. not idle.

Elder Le was leaning on crutches, sitting tremblingly in the hall, the juniors kowtowed to the old man one by one, said a few auspicious words, and the old man nodded, and then he was able to lead a golden glutinous rice ball to bounce and run away.

Jiang Zong took a few slices of crystal-clear smoked ham from the back kitchen and put them in his mouth. Seeing Le Lian standing in an inconspicuous corner, he walked over and put his arm on Le Lian's shoulder very familiarly, and finally A piece of prosciutto was stuffed into Le Lian's mouth.

"Does it smell good?" When his fingertips touched Le Lian's lips, Jiang Zong withdrew his hand and licked his fingertips, and asked him with a smile, "Why don't you sit down? What are you doing standing here?"

Le Lian looked at him like a fly, shook his head helplessly, and had no choice but to swallow the flakes that melted in his mouth, and the incense overflowed.

He frowned at Jiang Zong's indiscreet behavior and sighed.

Following Le Lian's gaze, Jiang Zong saw a young man of his own age, surrounded by maidservants, walk into the Yingchun Tower.

The young master Lejia was handsome and graceful, and his behavior was elegant and decent. As soon as he came in, he attracted the attention of many wives. The wives talked about it, and there were not a few who wanted to marry their daughters of the right age to the young master Lejia.

Lelian stood quietly, looking at the much-anticipated elder brother from the corner, he was used to looking at Lehe from the corner, in Lejia, the light always belonged to Lehe, and he was the mouse in the gutter , Humble into the dust.

"Ah, isn't this your elder brother?" Jiang Zong said casually while licking his fingertips, "You look like a dog, hey, if you say that people rely on clothes and horses to rely on saddles, what kind of crooked melon is he? Much better than him, really."

Compared to Le Lian, Jiang Zong doesn't like his elder brother Le He even more. He has neither ability nor temper, he makes a fuss about things, and he is jealous and suspicious when he is incapable. In his previous life, he would be so angry that he cooperated with him once. If you smash a bowl, you will lose ten years of life.

Lelian frowned.

No one has ever said that before, and Jiang Zong is the only one.

Le He went upstairs, passed by the corner where Jiang Zong and Le Lian were standing, and took a look at Le Lian.That look was like looking at a muddy stray dog, arrogant and contemptuous.

He urged Le Lian impatiently: "Why are you here, why don't you go to the back kitchen to urge them to serve the food."

Ever since Le Lian got into a knife with him, he and Le Lian have been torn apart. Now that Le Lian has moved out to live alone, he treats him as if he doesn't have this younger brother.In fact, he never looked at Le Lian in the past, treating him like a dog.

Le Lian's face was expressionless, and before he could speak, Jiang Zong was unhappy, let go of his arms around Le Lian's shoulders, folded his arms against the wall and raised his chin and said contemptuously: "Yo, what are you, you are also a Le family Young master, why do you let you shout and drink, want to urge yourself to go, you are so used to it, eat shit and go."

Le Lian pursed his lips, seeing Jiang Zong's wanton and domineering expression, couldn't help raising the corners of his mouth.

Le He suddenly stopped in his tracks, and was mocked by Jiang Zong Yitong with a smile and scolding, took a breath to suppress the fire, and threatened in a low voice: "Jiang Zong, there are so many guests here, I warn you to restrain yourself, we will have a banquet together." Let's settle the accounts."

Jiang Zong didn't like this, raised his eyebrows and said: "Why, the young master of the Tangtang Le family can still do such a thing? You'd better not, I know you have a batch of goods stuck in the capital, I have to find a way to let them go." You lost everything."

"You!" Le He gritted his teeth, grabbed Jiang Zong's wrist, and his bones rang.

Jiang Zong's wrist was hurting, and he frowned slightly, but he refused to show weakness. In his previous life, no one dared to let Jiang Zong show weakness, and now it is even more impossible.

The two were separated suddenly, Le Lian pulled Jiang Zong behind him, pushed Le He's hand away with the scabbard, and said flatly, "Brother, you're hitting hard."

"The little bastard who eats inside and out." Lehe gave him a hard look, and walked away with a flick of his sleeves.

Jiang Zong rubbed his wrists, and put a smirk on Le Lian's body: "I said, you really love me." He took the opportunity to support Le Lian's head, tilted his head and kissed his tofu-like cheek, He flashed to another place and took Jiang Heng to toast.

Le Lian was left behind, wiping the saliva off his face in embarrassment and annoyance.
