The next day.
It was only five o'clock in the morning, and Jiang Axiu got up early to cook.
Maybe Zhu Renxia was too tired from this expedition and snored non-stop all night. Until Jiang Axiu got up from the bed, he was still asleep.
Axiu was afraid of waking up her husband, so she tiptoed when she got up and went out cautiously.
When Zhu Renxia woke up, Jiang Axiu had already prepared breakfast.
In half an hour, she cooked rice and pork porridge, fried scallion pancakes, fried tofu and stir-fried cabbage with meat and vegetables.
"Oh... what a sin!"
Zhu Renxia pulled on his slippers and came to the yard, and helped A Xiu sit down at the dining table with shame.
"My husband sleeps like a pig. My wife has done so much work, but I don't even know it. I can't let you work any more. You must let Chunmei take care of you. After dinner, I will go to the warehouse to find Chunmei!" "
Jiang Axiu's smile was as bright as a flower: "I am still less than three months pregnant, so I can still do some housework. My husband, please don't pamper me like this, otherwise I will become a lazy woman who loves to eat and is lazy to do anything."
"Even if my Axiu is too lazy to lie still like a pig, my husband will like you."
Zhu Renxia picked up a spoon, filled a bowl of white rice porridge for himself and his wife, and spoke his own homely love words.
"Bang, bang, bang..."
At this moment, there was a rapid knock on the door, accompanied by Jiang Xiaoyu's shout, "Open the door, open the door!"
Zhu Renxia came to the yard and took off the door bolt, opened the door, and saw his brother-in-law standing at the door with dark circles on his face.
"Hey... why did you get up so early today? Didn't you always sleep until three o'clock in the morning and get up?"
Jiang Xiaoyu folded his hands and said with a sullen face, "What? I don't usually come to your house for breakfast, but today you come to have a meal and you want to kick me out?"
"Haha...who offended Young Master Jiang? Are you planning to ask for punishment with such a face?"
Zhu Renxia followed his brother-in-law with a smile and walked towards the restaurant one after another.
"She's not your stingy wife!"
Jiang Xiaoyu raised his head and snorted with his nostrils pointing towards the sky.
After entering the house, Zhu Renxia picked up a bowl and served Jiang Xiaoyu a bowl of porridge: "Tell me, where did your sister offend you?"
Jiang Xiaoyu asked Jiang Axiu for gold yesterday afternoon but failed, so he took a short knife and secretly rushed to the west city wall in the middle of the night, trying to secretly cut a piece of gold back.
But I didn't expect that the strong men of the Gentlemen Company each held a torch and stood guard every ten steps. Their eyes were as wide as a brass bell.
Jiang Xiaoyu hid in the darkness for three hours, but failed to find a chance to make a move. He was so cold that his nose dripped with snot and he even got dark circles under his eyes.
This made him more and more angry. He went home, washed his face, and then went to his sister's house with his hands in hand, intending to go straight to the point and ask for gold from his brother-in-law.
My brother-in-law just wants a trivial amount of gold and precious stones from you. I'm not greedy. If you don't agree to it, then we'll break off our relationship!
Jiang Xiaoyu stayed up all night, was cold and hungry, and was not in a hurry to speak. Instead, he wolfed down a bowl of white rice and lean meat porridge, and then handed the bowl to Jiang Axiu.
"Give me another bowl."
Zhu Renxia couldn't help but frown secretly: "This child is getting more and more naughty, and we must take good care of him. Her father is gone, and this burden has to fall on my brother-in-law!"
"I'll serve it to you."
Zhu Renxia held down Jiang Axiu who was about to get up, took Jiang Xiaoyu's bowl and filled him with another bowl of porridge.
With food in his stomach, Jiang Xiaoyu no longer rushed to eat like a starving ghost reincarnated, but directly stated his purpose: "It seems my sister didn't tell you."
"It was already very late when your brother-in-law came back last night, and my sister didn't have time to say anything."
Jiang Axiu glared at her younger brother, "Why are you in such a hurry? You came here so early in the morning to ask for help."
"Third sister's belly is getting bigger and bigger, can I not be in a hurry!"
Jiang Xiaoyu was not polite and told Zhu Renxia exactly what he told his sister yesterday.
"Third sister is also two months pregnant, and the marriage cannot be postponed any longer. My father is gone, and you and my sister cannot ignore my marriage."
"Tsk tsk..."
Zhu Renxia didn't know whether to praise his brother-in-law for being awesome or to scold him for being ridiculous. It turns out that you don't go to school and you just do this at home every day...
These days, the average age for getting married and having children is around fifteen or sixteen. Although Jiang Xiaoyu is marrying a wife earlier, it is not too outrageous.
"Sigh... You are only fourteen years old after the New Year. It is a good time to study and learn knowledge. It is a bit early to marry a wife now." Zhu Renxia sighed.
Jiang Xiaoyu immediately retorted: "Why is it so early? Why didn't you say that Haizi from Chenjiacun got married when he was twelve years old? Isn't it just to spread the business as soon as possible and carry on the family line for my father?"
"Besides, reading and literacy are of no use, as long as I can write my own name. Those words are densely packed like tadpoles. They know me, but I don't know them yet. Anyway, I can't get the top score, so I won't Reading!”
Zhu Renxia put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hands, nodded and said: "You have already made my third sister pregnant, and you can't delay it any longer. Just wait for another month. After the twelfth lunar month, you will be fourteen years old next spring. Let me get married to you."
Jiang Xiaoyu didn't miss this month, so he nodded and agreed: "Okay, you have to make it grand for me when the time comes. I am the only son of my father."
"Don't worry, my brother-in-law will definitely call all our Jiang family relatives here." Zhu Renxia said while eating fried cakes.
Jiang Xiaoyu asked: "Can't it be like when you married my sister, and the whole village came to have a feast?"
"cannot!"
Zhu Renxia decisively refused: "You are not the mayor, why did the whole village come to celebrate you? Besides, Chang'an Town now has a population of 1,500 or 600 people. It is the same as when I married your sister. Really? How much food will be wasted?"
"Anyway, it's all given by Tianzun, and I can't finish it."
Jiang Xiaoyu pursed his lips and stopped dwelling on the issue, "Third sister doesn't have any jewelry. Can you let me cut a piece of gold on that golden dragon, and then cut a ruby. I'll find a goldsmith to make a set of jewelry for third sister." ?”
After picking up the bowl and taking a sip of the porridge, he continued to add: "Brother-in-law, don't worry, I'm not greedy. I just want gold the size of a fist, plus gems the size of a goose egg."
Jiang Axiu glared at him and said angrily: "Didn't you say you wanted a gem the size of an egg yesterday? Why did it become the size of a goose egg today? You are not old, but you are very greedy!"
Jiang Xiaoyu defended: "I went home and thought about it. I can't just make jewelry for my third sister. I will have to take concubines in the future, right? Do I have to leave a family heirloom for my son? How can it be the size of an egg? So it must be It’s about the size of a goose egg.”
"Besides, this golden dragon is more than twenty feet long, and the gem is as big as a carriage. If the town is divided equally according to the number of people, I can at least get a gold bar as long as a broom and a gem as big as a handicap. I Is it too much to ask for just this little bit? Not too much, right?"
Listening to the argument between Jiang Axiu and his brother, and looking at Jiang Xiaoyu's dark circles, Zhu Renxia immediately understood what was going on.
It turned out that this kid couldn't get what he wanted from Axiu yesterday afternoon and secretly went to the west city wall to steal. This was because the people of the Junzi Company were closely guarding him. He stayed up all night but failed to succeed, so he turned his anger on others and ran away angrily in the morning. I came to my sister to ask questions.
In Zhu Renxia's view, Tianzun said that this gold necklace was given to Chang'an Town by "Empress Yinuo". In addition to purchasing ancient paintings, the rest was used to recruit soldiers and improve the lives of the residents of Chang'an Town.
Interpreting this, I have the power to distribute it. It is not impossible to get a piece for everyone in the town, even just for my brother-in-law.
But Jiang Xiaoyu is becoming more and more naughty now. Not only does he refuse to go to school, but he also refuses to follow Minzhuang's training. He only eats and drinks every day and goes fishing with his fishing rod.
Not only have you wasted your youth, but you have also degraded your moral character. If you don't teach them, you will probably go into evil ways in the future.
What's even more disgusting is that this guy is getting more and more courageous. At a young age, he even tried to steal gold and gems. If he can't correct this bad habit, what will happen when he grows up?
