The scorching heat has been raging on the earth these days, and everything is burnt. Zhang Wenyuan's injury on his butt has not healed yet, and he doesn't want to go out to play, so he simply cools off at home. Zhang's mother and Li Dalian took care of the housework. Apart from getting up early every morning to keep fit, he almost never touched the sun and was even shyer than other ladies about going out.
With the money coming in, Li Dalian stopped complaining and even looked at Yan Poxi with a much softer look. But Zhang's mother couldn't stand it. That morning, Zhang Wenyuan finished exercising and was about to take a shower. The old woman suddenly stopped him and said, "San'er, we have some spare money now, so why not build a small courtyard for the whole family?" It’s also more spacious to live in.”
Zhang Wenyuan knew the implication of my mother's words. These days, he, Li Dalian and Yan Poxi have been sleeping in the same bed. Although they are both her women, it is okay to sleep together, but it will not sound good if it is spread out. As the saying goes, "one wife in a room" "The Zhang family doesn't even have a spare house, so they still have the nerve to take a concubine?
Zhang Wenyuan naturally knew what his mother meant, but when he thought that ten years later would be the Jingkang Incident and all of Shandong fell into the hands of the Wanyan family of the Jin Kingdom, he lost the motivation to build a house, "Oh, why are you worrying so much?" , Yan Poxi doesn’t live there permanently, she will leave after recovering from her illness, why would she want to build a house!”
"Nonsense! Who said we don't live here anymore?" Mother Zhang hit him and whispered, "Keep your voice down! I think this girl is very good. She cares deeply about you, she is also filial to me, and she treats Dalian very well." Ye Yan obeyed, wouldn't it be better to keep her here to give you a son? Why let her go?"
In order to stay in the Zhang family, Yan Poxi has been working hard these days. Not only did she make Zhang's mother smile, but her life-long enemy Li Dalian also changed his mind about her, praising her for being well-behaved, sensible, and a rare person.
Zhang Wenyuan saw everything in his eyes and sneered, "She has a sword hanging over her head, can't she behave well?"
Zhang's mother didn't understand modern terminology. She turned around and couldn't find a big sword anywhere, "Ah... a sword, where is it?"
Zhang Wenyuan was speechless and had to change his words. Mother Zhang was so angry that she hit him again, "You, you said you know women best, I don't think you understand women at all! What does a woman want to do with her life? Are you looking for a satisfactory man and a stable life? Song Yasi can give her a comfortable life, but he is not as good as you and is so much older than her. Of course Fengjiao is not satisfied. You are so good, not much older than her. Not to mention how old you are, you are handsome, and now you can make money, she will naturally like you. You keep saying that she is a disaster star, and others believe it, but I don’t believe it. I know you are not afraid of Song Yasi, You are afraid that she will treat you the same way she treated Song Yasi. Don't worry about this. She was willing to work with you even though you were so incompetent in the past. Now you are more capable even though you no longer have errands. How can she be so stubborn? "
Zhang Wenyuan was speechless by his old mother's words and had to run away. But Zhang's mother is a perseverant person. During breakfast, she mentioned the matter of building a house again, "Your eldest brother and second brother are coming in the next two days. Let them help when the time comes. It won't take a lot of time to build a few wing rooms." !”
Zhang Wenyuan had no choice but to agree. Building a house in this era is indeed very simple and doesn't cost much, so let's build a few rooms first to avoid the old mother nagging about it all the time.
Zhang's mother said, "Since you agreed, you can't lie down any longer. You will go outside for a while, go to the brick and tile factory, and ask about the price of the wood."
Zhang Wenyuan had no choice but to give up the idea of lying down. But just as he was about to go out, two people suddenly appeared outside the hospital. He felt familiar, but he couldn't remember who they were, so he could only look at them and giggle, "Ah, here they come!"
The two of them looked similar, they should be brothers. One of them was carrying a bag of grain in his hand. When the elder saw him looking at him like a fool, he couldn't help frowning and said, "What's wrong with you? You won't be beaten stupid, right?"
Zhang Wenyuan didn't know what to call them, so he could only laugh and said, "How is it possible? I'm fine. How could those few blows hurt me?"
The two of them curled their lips and wanted to keep talking to him. Li Dalian had already heard the sound and came out. When he saw them, he greeted them hurriedly, "Oh, it's the uncle and the second uncle who are here. Why are you here so early? Come in quickly." sit!"
"Uncle, second uncle?"
Zhang Wenyuan was a little confused, and then he remembered that in this era, sisters-in-law called their eldest uncle uncle and their brother-in-law uncle. For example, Pan Jinlian called his second uncle Wu Song. Since she called them that, then these two people were her eldest brother Zhang Wenning and second brother Zhang Wenjing.
No wonder they were so rude to him, they turned out to be brothers!
Seeing his strange expression, Zhang Wenning and Zhang Wenjing asked Li Dalian, "Dalian, what's wrong with him?"
Li Dalian let the two people into the room to talk. She would not say that Zhang Wenyuan was taught Taoism by Patriarch Lu Ban, which caused some memory loss, so she could not recognize them. He just found a random reason and explained, "It's nothing, he was bullied in prison and was stupid!"
Seeing that his brother and his wife also said the same thing, the two brothers who didn't believe it at first really believed it. Zhang Wenning looked at him carefully and sneered, "Hey... you guy, how many times have I told you, in It's better outside, don't do those immoral things, but you just don't listen, now you're fine, you finally suffered a loss, how dare you do it in the future?"
Zhang Wenjing also hummed, "Hmph... How can a hungry dog change to eat shit!"
Zhang Wenyuan was so depressed that he glared at Li Dalian and said coldly to the two of them, "Don't listen to those silly old ladies, I'm very good!"
Zhang Wenning glanced at it a few more times and hummed, "Huh...you look at people with such eyes that you are shooting at them, and you said they are very good!"
Zhang Wenyuan retorted, "Don't you also have one eye that is big and one that is small?"
Zhang Wenning clenched his fists in anger, "I'm doing woodwork like this..."
Zhang Wenyuan said, "I'm not the same. I read official documents every day and become myopic. How can I stop shooting people with my eyes?"
Zhang Wenning said, "Are you reading official documents? You have seen too many women peeing and bathing!"
Zhang Wenjing laughed loudly when she heard this, "It's just that you have been idle all day long, now you must be punished!"
Li Dalian couldn't stand it anymore, so he had to invite Zhang's mother out to calm down.
With the participation of Zhang's mother, the three brothers were finally able to talk normally. Unexpectedly, the old woman started to steal the show again, "You two are really heartless. San'er was framed and suffered a big loss. You didn't say anything to come and see her." Look at him, he asked me to ask someone to bring a letter before he came. Look at other people's brothers, they all think in one place and work hard in one place, so that they can make a fortune. Look at you again, you have been fighting for strength since you were young. You are very competitive, and you don’t know how to change it when you grow up, but you turned your brothers into enemies. I really regret giving birth to you!"
Zhang Wenyuan said to me, "Why can't I help but quarrel with these two people when I see them? It turns out that this is a habit I have developed since I was a child. The eldest brother in this family is not like the eldest brother, and the younger brother is not like the younger brother. It's really weird."
Zhang Wenning saw that his old mother was scolding him as soon as they met, and he couldn't help complaining in a low voice, "It's not your fault that you and dad didn't finish the bowl of water. In other families, the eldest son inherits the family business, and others go out to earn fame. When it comes to Zhang Wenning, The family has changed. I am not allowed to inherit the family business. I just feel uncomfortable. It is your own partiality that prevents us brothers from getting along."
He didn't dare to say these words before, because Zhang Wenyuan was working in the yamen, and he could deal with himself as long as he found any excuse. But things are different now. Zhang Wenyuan has lost his job, and he has nothing to be afraid of. So today, apart from a routine visit to avoid making people laugh, he came here just to express his anger.
Zhang's mother shot herself in the foot, and her face suddenly sank, "You thief, what nonsense are you talking about? It's unfilial for you to talk to me like this. I shouldn't have given birth to you back then!"
I am not a vegetarian, so I actually gave him such a big label. Zhang Wenning did not dare to answer directly, so he could only sneer and say, "Hey... I, you don't have to scare me with these words. I know in my heart whether I am filial or not, and you also know in your heart. I just think you are partial. If you are not partial, , we brothers will never become like this!"
Seeing that they were about to quarrel again, Zhang Wenyuan hurriedly tried to persuade them, "Oh, stop quarreling. I don't see what the big deal is. I came to you for a serious matter."
Zhang Wenning said with red eyes, "What serious business do you have? Is it because you have no errands now and want to borrow money from us? I don't have any money to give you. I have to support five people by myself, and my life is very tight. I have a very tight life." This year I also want to sew a set of clothes for Da Nier to celebrate the New Year. She is already ten years old and has no clothes to wear. She can only stay at home all day long, but I have no money to lend you!"
Zhang Wenjing also echoed, "My team has very little work now, and they can't earn a few cents a month. I also have two children to raise, and your second sister-in-law is not in good health and can't do heavy work. How can I lend you money?" ?”
At this point, he seemed to have remembered something again, and frowned, "We agreed when we separated, that I will inherit the team, and you can't come and steal it!"
Seeing that his two brothers were so stingy, Zhang Wenyuan was furious and said angrily, "It's really a villain's heart that judges a gentleman's heart. Who wants to borrow money from you, who wants your lousy band!"
Seeing that he didn't lend the money or ask for the band back, the two brothers immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Zhang Wenning asked doubtfully, "Then why did you ask us to come? Is it really because you came to see you?"
"I'm too lazy to talk to you about this!" Zhang Wenyuan waved his hand, got up and went back to the room and took out the drawing of the super spinning machine and handed it to him, "This is the super spinning machine I drew, do you think it can be made? If it can be done, then my eldest niece’s clothes will be available.”
