    Zhao Hao looked at the closed door of the blacksmith shop and sighed helplessly, but he valued Gao Wu more and more in his heart.

    But today was not the right time to meet again, so he returned home feeling unhappy.

    Entering the yard, Zhao Hao took out two more ingots from his arms, threw twenty taels of silver to Zhao Shouzheng and said: "A thousand times is too many, I'd better insult my father twice first."

    "It's easy to talk about." Zhao Shouzheng was so happy that he held four ingots of silver and looked at them for a long time.  "Old friend, why didn't I find you so cute before?"

    But after admiring it, Zhao Shouzheng still reluctantly returned the money to his son and said:

    "I have also understood these days that life has to be lived. The money is with my father, and it will be gone in a blink of an eye. It is better for you to take care of it. I will ask you to get it when needed."

    Zhao Hao couldn't help but burst into tears, and felt a sense of relief from an old parent in his heart.

    People really need to suffer in order to grow, bastard.

    "This is for father's pocket change." He put the money back into his father's hand and said with a smile, "Money is a hero's courage. How can you be a man if you are short of money?"

    Zhao Shouzheng stopped refusing and said happily: "Then I will accept it."

    ??~~

    After the father and son finished speaking, they went their separate ways. Zhao Shou was serving dishes in the main room.  Zhao Hao returned to the west room where he lived.

    He first pushed open the broken bed he was sleeping on, and lifted up the blue bricks that originally supported the foot of the bed. Under the green bricks was a small hole he had dug in advance, and there was an empty wooden box inside.

    ¡°This was all prepared by Zhao Hao in advance.

    He only kept ten taels of silver with him for daily expenses.

    He put the remaining twenty taels of silver and the deposit receipt into a small wooden box, covered it with blue bricks, and finally pressed the bed legs on the bricks. Zhao Hao breathed a sigh of relief.

    When he returned to the patio, Zhao Shouzheng had already prepared face wash for him.

    "Wash up and eat quickly." Zhao Shouzheng urged his son with a smile.

    Although he smiles every day, it was only today that he felt relieved and smiled as heartlessly as before.

    Zhao Hao was also very happy. Just when he was about to make fun of his father, he suddenly heard someone outside the hospital shouting:

    "Don't start the meal yet, wait for me!"

    Hearing that sound, the pancake in Zhao Hao's hand fell to the ground.

    Through the short wall, you can see a huge head with a pair of wild ears, running towards the door happily.  Who is it if it's not Fan Datong who specializes in pumping?

    Zhao Shouzheng also changed his expression. He covered his purse and said, "Can this guy smell the smell of money? He came to your door as soon as I had money in my hand?"

    "No, we just got home, how did he know?" Zhao Hao shook his head, bent down to pick up the pancake, and whispered to his father: "There must be something else. Keep the money and don't let him see it.  that is."

    Zhao Shou was hurriedly bending down to scratch his itch, and stuffed his purse into his boots.

    As soon as he got up, he saw Fan Datong kicking open the ajar door and running in, sweating profusely, carrying large and small bags.

    "Hurry up and pick me up." Fan Datong shouted at the two of them: "Look, what did I bring?"

    In the surprised eyes of the father and son, Fan Datong displayed packages of chopped pork and mutton, two fat-headed fish, and some cooked food.

    "Roast chicken, salted duck, pork head, and this"

    With that said, Fan Datong took out a large wine gourd with a square red paper on it from his arms. The word "Daqu" was written on the red paper.

    "Good stuff" Zhao Shouzheng's eyes shone, and when he reached out to take it, he remembered his son's words in the morning, and couldn't help but said sadly: "I have to stop drinking for the time being."

    "Uncle Shi is so generous today?" Zhao Hao couldn't help but asked curiously as he brought raw meat and fish into the kitchen.

    "Celebrate the housewarming. I didn't give you any money yesterday, so today I'll buy wine and meat to eat together." Fan Datong said with a smile: "My dear nephew, I saw that the rice vat was almost empty. I also bought a stone of rice and a barrel at the rice store on the street.  Oil, the guy will bring it to you later.¡±

    Rice is expensive in Nanjing. A stone of rice costs one tael of silver, and the price of oil is even higher. With all the food and wine, he may have spent half of the little money he had yesterday.

    "Save your money and don't spend it so lavishly." Zhao Shouzheng had improved his own level, so he naturally taught Fan Datong a lesson: "The sage said, frugality cultivates virtue."

    "Oh, why has my brother changed his temper? Didn't you always say that you will come back after all your money is gone?" Fan Datong wiped his hands randomly on his body, then tore the plump roast chicken into several pieces and cut off the two chicken legs.  He handed it to the father and son, then he held half of the chicken and gnawed it, saying:

    "How can spending money for my brother be considered a waste of money? I originally wanted to invite you to Deyuelou to celebrate the housewarming, but I thought about it after five years.I'm afraid the money is not enough"

    "Ahem" Zhao Hao almost choked to death.  In the past few days since they moved here, my father and son have not spent a single tael of money on food!  This also includes the half tael that Zhao Shouzheng sent out.

    ??This big rice bucket doesn¡¯t take money as money!

    "Don't be surprised for no reason, my dear nephew." Fan Datong said with a nonchalant look: "You are also from an official family, so what does this little money mean? The money to board the boat on the Qinhuai River is fifty taels, and the moon tower is also worth it.  It¡¯s a famous building in Nanjing, but you can¡¯t get anything good for five taels of silver¡­¡±

    "Indeed." Zhao Shouzheng nodded, obviously he had often been to such occasions before.  I just don¡¯t know if I¡¯m going to a place that costs 50 taels, or a place that costs 50 taels¡­

    "Okay" Zhao Hao rolled his eyes, how come I can't live a full day in this rich life?

    He went into the house and brought out some stewed vegetables for dinner, and put them on a table with the food Fan Datong brought, and the three of them started eating and drinking on the patio.

    After Fan Datong had eaten and drank enough, he picked his teeth and asked, "How will my brother make a living in the future?"

    "Don't worry about this, my son" Zhao Shouzheng was about to show off, but was stepped on secretly by Zhao Hao.

    He immediately shook his head and changed his words: "My son let me take the exam. There are thousands of millimeters in the book, so you won't have to worry about it then."

    Hearing this, Fan Datong secretly smiled bitterly, wondering where his brother got his confidence.  But a person like him is accustomed to flattering others, so how could he say a disappointing word?

    Then he raised his wine glass and said with a smile: "Then I would like to wish my brother a fragrant Gui Bang and a consecutive victory in Huangjia!"

    ¡°Then I have to drink this cup.¡±

    Zhao Shouzheng was in a good mood, and Fan Datong was particularly pleasing to his eye. The two of them ate, drank, talked and laughed, and even sang brothel tunes when they were in high spirits, which was extremely saucy.

    After one drink, Zhao Shouzheng couldn't hold back anymore. After three glasses of Daqu, Zhao Shouzheng got carried away. He put his arm around Fan Datong and said with a loud tongue: "As the saying goes, a friend in need is a friend indeed, today you can come to the door again and buy such a  There are so many things, you are my friendeven if it is not in vain. As the saying goes, we share the blessings together, come on, I will not let you suffer as a brother"

    As he said that, he reached out and took out five taels of silver from his boots, slapped it in front of Fan Datong and said, "Take it for the flowers!"

    Fan Datong was surprised, obviously he didn't expect that Zhao Shouzheng could still come up with money.

    He glanced at Zhao Hao, waved his hands and said, "This is inappropriate. My brother is no longer what he used to be. I can't"

    While he was talking, he kept watching Zhao Hao's reaction, but saw that Zhao Hao's expression was normal, and he obviously didn't care.

    "You can't take so much, give me two taels" Fan Datong then changed his words: "Two taels is enough."

    Zhao Hao couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly.

    "Just take it! There is so much nonsense, just save some money for me!" Zhao Shouzheng was so bold that he stuffed the five taels of silver into Fan Datong's arms without any explanation.

    "Hey, brother, I dare not say goodbye. I promise to spend a few more days this time." Fan Datong happily put the money away.

    ??Lest Zhao Hao would suddenly attack and take the money back.  He drank two more drinks and couldn't wait to get up and say goodbye.

    After sending away the satisfied Fan Datong, Zhao Shouzheng was over his drunkenness. He looked at his son with a guilty conscience and said, "You don't blame me for giving him money again, do you?"

    However, Zhao Hao shook his head and said with a smile: "It's my father's pocket money, so naturally I can spend it however I want."

    After a pause, he said quietly: "Didn't my father promise that he would stop drinking before the competition?"

    "Aren't you happy today? It won't be the same next time, and it won't be the same next time." Zhao Shouzheng hurriedly smiled and gestured with his fists: "Besides, I'm not drunk as a father. Look, how strong and fit you are!"

    "You're not drunk, are you? Come on, help me."

    Zhao Hao greeted him politely and asked him to help carry the dozens of kilograms of sugar residue from the kitchen to the backyard.

    Then the two dug a big hole with shovels and poured all the sugar residue into it.

    "It's a pity. If you sell it, you can get a month's worth of food and wine" Zhao Shouzheng couldn't help but feel pain in his heart, and he was indeed getting better.

    "If someone finds out, it will be troublesome." Zhao Hao shook his head and explained: "Selling dozens of kilograms of white sugar is already eye-catching. If someone knows about it, we first bought so much brown sugar and then sold out so much sugar.  Scum, I'm afraid you will think of whether we have a way to refine it."

    Only then did Shouzheng understand why Zhao Hao stepped on him, and he couldn't help but praise: "My son is really cautious. As a father, I just talk casually, so naturally I will listen to you."

    Zhao Hao originally wanted to bury it directly, but he was afraid that too much sugar would attract swarms of ants, so he went to the street and bought a large bucket of quicklime, mixed it with water and poured it on top. After completely destroying the body and eliminating traces, he covered it with a thick layer of soil.  .
