Chapter 146
The Mid-Autumn Festival is getting closer, and the house is getting busy.Gifts are given in every mansion. Although the servants cannot go back, the servants' homes also have festivals, and the mansions always give out red envelopes during festivals.When everyone was busy, another big event happened, Zong Yunlong beat Zong Yunlin.
Ever since Zong Yunlin pushed Zong Yunlong down the steps of the ancestral temple, causing Zong Yunlong to be seriously injured and almost killed, Zong Yunlong hated him to the bone, and the Elder was afraid that Zong Yunlong would take revenge on Zong Yunlong after he recovered. His status is even higher than that of his great master.
After the accident, the elder sent Zong Yunlin to his brother-in-law's home in Suzhou overnight.He said it was his brother-in-law, but he was actually a relative of one of his concubines.Although Zong Yunlin was born by his aunt, he is the eldest son of the elder, and he looks very handsome, just looking left and right makes people feel uncomfortable.
Zong Yunlin is also used to running rampant in the mansion, when the Elder Master sent him out, he stuck his neck and shouted: "What are you afraid of him, it's just good to die, save you thinking about being someone's adoptive father every day."
The old man scolded angrily: "You bastard, you are just being foster parents, and it's not for your own good. Now that you have caused such a catastrophe, you are still talking hard here. Butler Jin, quickly take the young master down, and go to Suzhou overnight. go."
Butler Jin agreed again and again, trying to persuade Zong Yunlin to go to Suzhou.While sending people to observe Zong Yunlong's movements, the elder was worried about his son's suffering.
After a while, the steward Jin asked someone to bring a letter, telling the old man that the young master was about to spend all the silver taels he brought, so he asked the old man to bring the money quickly.The old man was surprised. He was afraid that his son would suffer, so he specially brought him a 1000 tael banknote. Now it will be more than ten days, and the information will be used up?
While preparing 500 taels of silver, he sent someone there.The elder suspects in his heart that Butler Jin is treacherous and cunning, and his son is innocent, probably all the money was cheated by Butler Jin.As soon as the person who delivered the money came back, the elder called him into the study and asked him about the situation.
The old man sat in the study, looking at Zhao Fu in front of him, his eyes were a little sharp.Zhaofu stepped forward and said a thousand words: "My lord, the slave Zhaofu came back to give back to the lord."
The old man nodded, "Zhao Fu, you are tired, tell the truth about everything you saw over there, if you hide anything, you will know my temper." Zhao Fu hurriedly kowtowed, and replied carefully: "My lord, this slave dare not hide anything."
The Eldest Master nodded, "Tell me, did the Young Master really spend a lot of money when he arrived in Suzhou?"
Zhao Fu listened, slightly taken aback, kowtowed quickly, and didn't dare to speak.The elder's face darkened, and he shouted angrily: "Say!"
Zhao Fu lay on the ground, hesitated for a long time, and then said in a low voice: "Master, the slave has gone, and I haven't seen the young master much, but the cousin over there took the slave in, and the slave asked the master over there, and asked us The master over there just sneered and didn’t speak. Later, Butler Jin whispered to the servant that the young master went to the most famous Yichun Courtyard there, and he didn’t return home for three or four days. The servant didn’t dare to ask any more questions, just put the The master told Steward Jin what he had said, and kept the silver, and the servant came back, but to tell the truth, the servant did not see our young master."
Listening to Zhao Fu's narration, the Elder slapped the table and cursed bitterly: "This bastard! You want to piss me off! Come, come, bring that bastard back to me."
Zhao Fu knelt on the ground, not daring to speak. At this time, he heard the door slam, and the second aunt rushed in crying. The elder immediately stood up in embarrassment, and said angrily, "Who let you in!"
The second aunt threw herself in front of the Elder Master, pleading with snot and tears, "Elder Master, although Yun Lin is not a direct descendant, he is your eldest son after all, you just have the heart to watch him come back and be sent to the official by Yunlong, and be sent to the court by Yunlong. Are you going to jail? My lord, you are his real father."
Zhao Fu lowered his head, not daring to laugh out loud, his face turned red.The old man pulled her away angrily, and scolded: "How decent are you in front of servants? Stand up quickly!"
The second aunt wiped away her tears, and hurriedly stood aside, looking at the old man eagerly.The old man sighed slightly, frowned and said: "Zhao Fu, you go to Suzhou again, and ask the old man over there to discipline you strictly."
Zhao Fu agreed, and quickly lowered his head and slipped out.The elder looked at the cat-like face of the second aunt, waved his hand impatiently and said: "Go out, my son is as hopeless as you."
The second aunt saw the Eldest Master compromise, and said triumphantly: "Elder Master, this servant has no future, and she gave birth to a son for you, didn't she? Among your promising wives, which one of your aunts gave birth to a son for you?"
Hearing this, the old man shook his head with a wry smile, "Go out. Don't make trouble anymore." The second aunt agreed, and went out in a hurry.
After Zong Yunlong recovered from his injury, things gradually subsided.Zong Yunlin over there is already clamoring to come back.When Zong Yunlin went to Suzhou earlier, he brought 1000 taels of silver with him, and later the elder gave him another 500 taels. After a few days, Zong Yunlin squandered it and forced the steward Jin to ask for more money. Firstly, his pockets were tight, and secondly, Zong Yunlong cut off the gift from his family.But for this one son, if he doesn't give money, he will die or live. Although he is married, he has not left one at all.
The old man heard that Zong Yunlin was coming back, and after thinking about it, it was not an option to go on like this. His son was outside, and sooner or later his family would be ruined. It is better to let him come back. Seeing that there has been no movement from Zong Yunlong, I am afraid that he is also concerned about his brother's face. , I don't want to pursue it anymore.In this way, Yunlin can go to the shop to be a shopkeeper. Firstly, he will not run amok if he has something to do, and secondly, can Zong Yunlong not give him some salary?
On this day, the elder took only one entourage and quietly went to Zong Yunlong's shop.He thought, he is Zong Yunlong's elder after all, if you don't look at the monk's face and the Buddha's face, you, Zong Yunlong, must always look at your father's face.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the shop, Ji Qing greeted him with a smile, and said a thousand times: "My lord, why are you free to come over today?"
The old man immediately turned cold, and snorted, "Where is Yunlong!"
"The young master is watching the goods in the back. What orders do you have, my master? This servant will invite the young master, come here, and serve tea to the elder master." The elder master immediately threatened vigilantly: "Jiqing, play tricks again, and be careful of me." I broke your leg." Ji Qing chuckled, "My lord, look at what you said, how many slaves have the guts to play tricks in front of you."
Ji Qing ordered the shop assistants to serve tea to the Elder Master, and said respectfully, "Master, please wait a moment, I will invite the Young Master over."
The elder nodded, looked at the tea, and sat without moving. Ji Qing ran aside to drink tea and chat by himself.After waiting for a long time, he quietly returned to the shop, saw the old man sitting there, staring at the tea, pursing his lips constantly, but he didn't dare to take it.
Ji Qing couldn't bear it any longer, ran to the backyard and hunched over laughing.Zong Yunlong was listening to the account report from the tent. Hearing laughter, he couldn't help shouting: "Jiqing, your skin is itchy. I can't laugh at you in front of you. Come here to ask for a beating."
Ji Qing resisted, stepped forward and replied: "Young master, please see me, sir."
"What is he doing here? Did he just let it go when he saw me being beaten to death by his son! No see!" Ji Qing hurriedly stepped forward, "Young master, I think the face of the elder is not the same as before when he came this time, the slave thought, isn't it? Is there anything I can ask you, my lord?"
"Hmph, he begged me. Apart from money, what else can he beg me for? It's better not to see him. Just say that I'm tired and I'm going back home first." Zong Yunlong frowned and said impatiently.
Ji Qing thought for a while and persuaded: "Young Master, I see that the Elder Master has only one entourage with him. You might as well meet him. We have a large number of people. If the Young Master does not see you, the Elder Master may be thinking that the Elder Master is afraid of him."
Zong Yunlong thought for a while, then nodded, "Okay, let him be chilled for a while before I go out." Ji Qing couldn't help laughing again: "Master, it's already scorched and icy cold." Saying, Just said what happened just now.Zong Yunlong smiled and scolded: "You monkey bastard, you really are the roundworm in my stomach."
Ji Qing clasped his hands and said: "Young master, the slave is thinking, the Eldest Master doesn't know what to expect at this moment, so you might as well move over to have a look, Young Master."
Zong Yunlong looked at the account room, "Hu account room, have you finished reading all the account books?"
"Young master, I have finished reading, there is nothing wrong with it." Hu tentatively replied softly.There was a slight smile on the young face.
"Okay, now that our matter has been dealt with, let's go and have a look. Otherwise, if it gets out, people will say that I am young and ignorant." Zong Yunlong said, sneered a few times, raised his body, and came towards the outside , Hu's tent is very behind.
Ji Qing asked in a low voice: "Mr. Hu, can you guess what the old man is here for?" The accountant Hu thought for a while, then said suspiciously: "In my opinion, the old man came here for the sake of it?" His own face is smaller."
"Why?" Ji Qing asked in surprise. "Look at the last time Elder Yu Zong came here, with that imposing manner, that fierce look, he came here to ask the young master for money. But this time, he sat there and waited for almost an hour. Be impatient, don't dare to rush, I think nine times out of ten I will come here for the second young master." While speaking, the three of them walked into the shop.When the elder saw Zong Yunlong, he stood up uncharacteristically.
Zong Yunlong walked to the side slowly, looked at the old man, raised his eyebrows slightly and said: "Uncle, why are you free today?"
"Nephew Yunlong, you were injured a few days ago, and I'm not in good health, so I can't go to see you. I can walk around today, so I thought, come and see you, how are you?" The old man smiled. talking.
"Thank you, Uncle, I'm much better now. It's really thanks to the mercy of my second brother. Otherwise, my life might go to see my parents." Zong Yunlong said coldly.
"Nephew, although Yunlin is two years older than you, he is much worse than you in how he handles people. It's my fault that spoiled him. You don't care about villains, just forgive him this time. I promise. He doesn't dare anymore." The old man still had a smile on his face, and there was a flattering light in his eyes.
It's really pitiful to the world's parents, Zong Yunlong sighed inwardly, and Ji Qing quietly stretched out his thumb to Hu's accountant.Accountant Hu smiled slightly, stood aside, and said nothing.
Zong Yunlong looked at the tea in front of the old man, frowned slightly and said, "Jiqing, the tea is cold, give the old man a change."
The Elder Master heard Zong Yunlong's tone soften a lot, thinking in his heart that it is necessary to strike while the iron is hot, he hurriedly stepped forward and said softly: "Nephew, Uncle has discussed something with you, don't be angry. "
Zong Yunlong ignored him, Ji Qing stepped forward, poured another cup of tea for Zong Yunlong, and changed another cup for the old man. Thinking of the nervous look of the old man just now, he almost couldn't help laughing again.
