Lin'an, Imperial Palace, Renming Hall
The main hall, which should have been very quiet and solemn, is now full of children running around and palace maids who are busy. The older ones may be five or six years old, and the younger ones are still in their infancy. These children running around belong to no one else. They are all Qiao Mu's direct grandchildren and granddaughters.
Today is Qiao Mu¡¯s birthday, so Zhao Kuo brought all his children here to pay her birthday.
Zhao Kuo thought he was being filial, and thought Qiao Mu would be very happy to see that he had so many sons and daughters, but in fact, when Qiao Mu looked at the nearly thirty grandchildren in the hall, he had a headache and wanted to die, wishing he could go back in time and pinch him. The self who gave the prescription for the treatment at the time of his death gave me a headache just looking at so many children, not to mention they were all very noisy. Most of them were children between three and five years old, and the maids and wet nurses who served them did not dare to Education, so all of them are naughty kids who can live in a house and build a house. Qiao Mu feels like his scalp is going to explode just by listening to their magic sounds. He just wants to die!
¡°Mom, these are your grandchildren.
I have thought about it, when they are established, when it is time to enter the royal family tree, I will adopt one to the eldest brother. The one adopted by the side branch to the eldest brother will not be as good as the relatives from my side. In this way, my eldest brother can have someone to worship him. You can Say yes? "
Zhao Kuo thought he was very filial and thought he was thinking about his mother when he said his plan. In the past, there was nothing he could do. He didn't even have a child, so he could only let his eldest brother adopt children from other clans, but now He already has nearly thirty children, and there may be more next year. Naturally, he will not be stingy about adopting one or two for his eldest brother. Anyway, it is not less than one or two.
"what ever!
Tell me, you come here to wish me a happy birthday. Why are you bringing so many children, even infants? You are not afraid that they will catch cold. Your father and the concubines will come to my place in a while. You can bring them here first. Send your children to the left side hall to avoid collision.
And, tell me, what¡¯s the matter?
Are you out of money again? "
Qiao Mu almost rolled his eyes and asked.
In the past, when her son gave birth to one or two grandchildren, it was naturally an insignificant matter because he could afford to raise them anyway. However, since he gave birth to more than twenty grandchildren, there are still seven or eight pregnant women in the backyard. , he couldn't afford it. After all, his little salary was not enough to do anything. It was even more impossible for the prince to take the lead in corruption and bribery, so his life was naturally much more embarrassing. From time to time, he would go to the palace to catch the autumn breeze, and he didn't do it himself. He was too embarrassed to fight, and he always came with his many sons and daughters.
Qiao Muguang had already given him several hundred taels of silver this month. As a result, it was just the end of the month and he took the opportunity to pay his birthday again. What was the birthday gift? He gave him a longevity picture written by himself. The kind that no one wants in the store.
But fortunately, he was very attentive, at least every word for longevity on the picture was written by himself, imitating other people's words, which is considered filial piety.
"Haha, mother, you still understand me.
Unlike my father, I spent a long time chatting with him about government affairs last night, but he sent me away without giving me anything and left me to have dinner in the palace. I¡¯m full, but my child is still hungry"
Zhao Kuo laughed twice and started to complain.
Some things, such as chewing the elderly, must be a little embarrassing and embarrassing at the beginning, but the more embarrassing they are, the more embarrassing they become. The more times they are used, the thicker the skin becomes. At the beginning, Zhao Kuo When I came here to cry, my face was still a little blushing, and my speech was a little hesitant. But this time, I have become thick-skinned. Not to mention hesitant, I follow it smoothly, as if I have made a draft.
"Stop talking, I understand, I understand.
I¡¯ll give you another thousand taels later, but it doesn¡¯t matter if you always act like this. Didn¡¯t I give you two 200-acre farms last time? I also gave you a shop with a pretty good profit. This paragraph Isn't there any benefit from time? I remember that the weather this year was not bad and there were no major disasters? "
Qiao Mu interrupted his complaint impatiently, and then asked what was the current situation of some fixed assets given to him last year.
"Mom, Zhuangzi's income is okay, but the grain is not valuable, and I see that the farmhands in Zhuangzi have a very hard life. Many of them have never eaten a bowl of white rice in their lives. It is so pitiful, so I reduced the amount. They charge 40% of the rent, but only 10%. The 10% of the rent they charge is just enough to feed me in Prince Jia's Mansion.
The shop is okay, but I think the profit on some items is too high, and it is clearly exploiting hundreds of people.Well, so I asked the shopkeeper to lower the prices of some things, but there was no profit"
When Zhao Kuo said this, he actually felt a little embarrassed. He felt that he could do too little now and not love the people enough. When he becomes emperor in the future, he will definitely have to work harder and love the people even more than his father. Only in this way can he Only by allowing people to live a good life can everyone have enough to eat.
Qiao Mu felt his head hurt even more now. What kind of trouble is this, son? Isn't this the legendary Madonna? Although it is better than some Madonnas who are generous to others, it is obviously not much better. He Isn't it the generous thing that I gave him? This is too bad.
¡°Shut up!
"What do you want me to say? I'm not saying that your behavior is bad, but, alas, forget it, I have a headache. You can go down first." "
Qiao Mu frowned and struggled for a while. She really couldn't think of how to persuade her, so she could only wave her hand to let him sit aside and rest for a while. Then she began to think about how to turn around her troubled son. The Holy Father complex.
However, before she had thought about it for a few minutes, the emperor and the concubines of the harem arrived one after another. Her little birthday was pretty good, everyone who could come came, and she also gave a lot of birthday gifts. Qiao Mu saw that As for the members of the birthday ceremony, he managed to pick up the energy to chat with them, chatting about some gossip. Zhao Dun was really not interested in these, so after listening for a while, he found an excuse to leave. Zhao Kuo went to see his grandson and granddaughter in the East Side Hall. Zhao Kuo was not interested in these gossips. He also found an excuse to leave and went to the East Side Hall. He planned to fight with his father again to see if he could get some money back. .
In fact, although there have been many more children in Zhao Kuo's house in recent years, if he can live a normal life, it is not impossible, not to mention that he lives a very frugal life, but he belongs to the The kind of Holy Father who is stingy with himself and his family, but very generous to others, just can't bear to see others suffering. When he sees others suffering, he wants to help, give some money, etc. This also causes him to The main reason why I am very poor is that I am very frugal and even wear patches on my clothes, but I am still unable to make ends meet.
No matter how much wealth you have, you can¡¯t afford it to be scattered like this. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
