"I said you, an old guy, a tall and dignified man, are you still afraid of my wife?"
"That's right! You have a huge fortune, but you still can't be the master of a mere 10,000 gold?"
"If you ask me, as soon as you enter the house, you will slap her twice and ask her if she will obey her. If she doesn't, she will break up immediately!"
"Yes! Haha...!"
The old guys couldn't help but joke, and their voices got louder and louder. Zhang Han was so frightened that his old face changed color, and he quickly covered their mouths to prevent them from talking anymore.
"Keep your voice down, keep your voice down, keep your voice down...!"
Zhang Han stamped his feet anxiously, "Are you trying to kill me?"
"Is this how you treat your wife?"
He has never heard of any of these old guys giving their wives a slap in the face!
Don’t all of them treat Madam like a guest?
"Humph! We are different from you, we are your own wives!"
The veterans raised their heads proudly.
"I am also my first wife, not my second wife!"
Zhang Han frowned, fearing that these old guys would say something he shouldn't have said.
"That's different. My wife is not a tigress!"
"Haha! Yes, yes!"
The veterans nodded repeatedly.
"Okay, it's already this time, why are we still talking about tigers and not tigers? You don't understand. Oops...!"
Zhang Han's anxious forehead was sweating, "Let me tell you, we have been officials in the same dynasty for most of our lives. Even if we occasionally quarrel, our feelings are here. You must help me this time!"
"Stop! It's true that we are bickering, but we don't have any feelings!"
"Yes! You old guy wanted to compete with me for the position of commander before. Where did the affection come from?"
"Isn't that right! You are such a monkey boy, who has feelings for you?"
"Hurry up and drive, don't delay us going home for dinner!"
"right……!"
Even if Zhang Han reveals his true feelings, the old guys will never buy it.
This guy's family affairs are the most interesting. It's too late for them to watch the excitement. Who can intercede for him?
Moreover, it is difficult for honest officials to get rid of household affairs, and they will not meddle in it!
"Don't, don't, don't! I won't let you do anything, just follow me into the house and say that with this ten thousand gold, we can jointly invest in the business!"
Zhang Han opened his arms and blocked a few old guys from letting them pass.
The old guys heard this and exchanged looks.
"Doesn't this make us lie? No, no!"
"Yes, as members of the imperial court, how can we do such a thing as lying? Absolutely not!"
"Who says otherwise! We can't do such a thing...!"
The old guys shook their heads and waved away.
"Brothers...no...brothers, brother, can you do me a favor? My wife's attack is really heavy! My old arms and legs can't bear it! If you... If you don’t help me, you’ll never see me again if you don’t protect everything!”
Zhang Han almost shed tears as he spoke, planning to make a miserable performance and win the sympathy of several old guys.
"Never see you again?"
The old guys asked, pretending to be nervous.
"Yes! Just some old brothers, please help me this time!"
Seeing that this trick worked, Zhang Han squeezed his eyes hard and shed two tears.
"Who is your brother? I'm only forty years old, and I don't even look at your wrinkled face. Even flies don't dare to land on it, for fear that you will be caught in the wrinkles when you smile! You still call me brother? You are really shameless. It’s thick enough!”
Kang Anping couldn't help but rolled his eyes.
"Lao Zhang, don't worry. If you are really gone, I have someone who is suitable to take your place. I will write a letter of recommendation to His Majesty later!"
"Well, usually this old guy always stops us and doesn't let us take our daughter to the other garden to play with the prince. When he was beaten to death by the madam, no one finally stopped us!"
"That's right! Next time we go to the battlefield, there will be one less person to compete with us for the command!"
"Lao Zhang, have a good journey, we won't send you off...!"
The veterans waved their hands towards Zhang Han with gloating expressions.
"You...you..."
Zhang Han was very angry with them.
Nothing has happened on my side, but these old guys are expecting me to die?
Are you thinking about your official position?
If it were normal times, he would either say something to retaliate, or directly stretch out his fist and make gestures with them!
But after subconsciously glancing at the mansion, I took a deep breath and told myself in my heart, I can't be angry, I can't be angry, I absolutely can't be angry!
If a good man doesn't want to suffer the immediate loss, he has to use a few old guys to help him get through this situation!
As for the things between them, there will always be opportunities to make amends in the future!
"What are we doing?"
Kang Anping raised his head and asked with a provocative smile.
This place is not far from Zhang's mansion. If this old guy dares to take action, they will immediately shout and lure Mrs. Zhang out to see what this old guy will do!
"No...it's okay! Hehe! We have been colleagues for so many years, so why don't you give me some face? Do me this favor and treat you to a drink later, okay?"
Even if Zhang Han is angry, he can't get angry. He still has to smile. Fortunately, he is usually thick-skinned.
"Drinking? Do you want to get rid of us after just one drink?"
"You look at us as if we were the ones who gave you that drink?"
The veterans couldn't help but curl their lips.
"Isn't it enough to have a drink? Then...?"
After listening to what the veterans said, Zhang Han finally came to his senses. He obviously wanted to take advantage of the situation and blackmail him, so he couldn't help but raise his voice.
However, before he finished speaking, Wang Ben pointed to his mansion with a smile, and Zhang Han immediately covered his mouth.
Finally, he adjusted his mood, lowered his voice, and smiled, "You also know that my wife is the most strict about money management. Even if I treat you to a meal, it would take me a long time to save it!"
"Lao Zhang, where did you keep all your savings?"
Kang Anping asked curiously.
"Just put it in the backyard..."
Zhang Han subconsciously pointed in the direction of the backyard, but before he could say anything, he suddenly realized, "Why should I tell you?"
Fortunately, he reacted, otherwise, wouldn't this kid have caught him again?
Looking back, I don’t know how many times I’ll use this handle to trick him, and how much money I’ll spend!
"Lao Zhang! Let's do this. I see that your life is very tight these days. If we need some help, how about I help you?"
Kang Anping put one hand on Zhang Han's shoulder and said with a smile.
"A big help?"
"That's right!"
"How to say?"
Zhang Han was puzzled.
"Look at it, we are the ones making the most money in the court! But Lao Zhang, your money is too tight, don't you want to leave more money?"
Kang Anping raised his eyebrows at him.
"Then... I must be thinking about it, hehe!"
Zhang Han rubbed his hands with interest.
"Then let's do this...!"
