Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Zhao Jin has served as a county magistrate and as a censor for many years. He is already familiar with the laws of the Ming Dynasty and knows how to avoid risks.  He suggested that Zhao Hao should not only become famous as a teacher, but also try to scare Qian's family and induce them to sign a settlement document, so as to avoid future troubles forever.

    " Wives beat their husbands, and civilians beat officials to death, which is enough to scare Qian's family out of their wits.

    But even if Zhao Shouye is beaten to death and carried over, the Qian family may not believe that he is going to die. After all, he walked out of the Qian family's door by himself last night.

    At this time, a key figure who can win the trust of the Qian family is needed to stand up and prove that Zhao Shouye is dying.

    Li Jiutian and Agent Li, who had a holiday in the previous series, are the best candidates.

    People only know that Li Jiutian went to Weijixian to cause trouble, but was slapped down by the deputy censor of the capital and sent to the county government to be dealt with by the elder.  As a result, Li Jiutian lost his job in the Caijiaxiang area and became a coolie without any money. He must have resented the Zhao family in his heart.

    But little did he know that Li Jiutian wanted to get the Zhao family¡¯s understanding even more.

    Although he is an official official who has filed a complaint with the Ministry of Civil Affairs, even the county boss cannot fire him.  However, the county master also made it clear long ago that he could only be transferred back to Caijiaxiang with the understanding of Zhao Jin and Yushi Zhao.

    Over the past month, Li Jiutian tried his best to finally meet Zhao Jin, but no matter how he kowtowed and begged, Zhao Jin only had one sentence - my brother forgives you, and I will let you go.  So, Li Jiutian instead fawned over Zhao Hao, but Mr. Zhao stayed at home every day and never saw him, let alone flattered him.

    Li Jiutian was helplessly worried. In the middle of the night last night, Zhao Hao had someone call him over and told him to cooperate in a play today.  When Li Jiutian heard this, he felt that he didn't have to worry too much, so he immediately agreed and patted his chest.

    So he had been waiting in the squad room early. As soon as the Qian family came to report to the official, Li Jiutian would immediately lead his troops!

    When he was at the Qian family earlier, it seemed that he was dealing with justice, but in fact he was secretly cooperating with Zhao Hao to force Mr. Qian to submit

    Of course, Zhao Shouye¡¯s appearance of being seriously injured and dying was also an act.

    ??~~

    On the carriage, Zhao Shouzheng watched his brother wipe the beeswax on his face with a wet handkerchief.

    "Bah, this chicken blood is too fishy" Zhao Shouye stuck out his scarlet tongue, his face full of disgust, and he didn't look like he was dying.

    "Brother, please be satisfied." Zhao Shouzheng couldn't help but smile: "Originally, I wanted to break two of your ribs so that you can act more realistically"

    "That hurts so much." Zhao Shouye said with lingering fear, "I can't bear that crime."

    "Fortunately, nothing went wrong and the matter was settled." Zhao Shouzheng was overjoyed and said proudly, "Sure enough, it was my son who took action, so there is nothing that cannot be done."

    "Yes, thanks to Zhao Hao this time." Zhao Shouye said with admiration on his face: "Anyway, when I heard him shouting for help and wanted to smash the Qian family, I was frightened. I thought that the Qian family would definitely not let it go.  , I don¡¯t know how long the lawsuit will last.¡±

    He said happily: "I didn't expect that with one bluff, he frightened the Qian family. Not only did he sign the settlement document, but he also offered 5,000 taels of silver and 500 acres of land."

    "Brother has made a big sacrifice this time," Zhao Shouzheng sighed softly and said, "Over there at the Yamen, you won't be able to show up for a while, right?"

    Youdao is all about putting on a show. Zhao Shouye can't be on the verge of death today and go to work tomorrow, right?  Even if a medical miracle happened, he still had to go through a recovery process and stay at home for a few months.

    Otherwise, let Mrs. Qian see that he would jump in a few days, and it would definitely not be counted!

    "That's natural." Zhao Shouye said unconcernedly: "But I haven't wanted to be an official for a long time. Let's rest at home for a few months and then see if there is any way to transfer to another county. Even if I am demoted to a county magistrate, it is better than being a county magistrate.  This Nanjing city is full of people and ghosts."

    "Oh, that's right. If you move a tree to death and a person to death, it's okay for me to move." Although Zhao Shouzheng was a little reluctant, he still had to think about it for his brother: "When you have time, talk to Zhao Hao and ask him to help you.  Please refer to it for details.¡±

    "Yeah." Zhao Shouye nodded. After this incident, he already knew who was the backbone of the Zhao family without the old man.

    ??~~

    Back in Caijiaxiang, Zhao Hao ordered Wu Yu to open a jar of silver, pick out thirty gold ingots of five taels and one ingot, and reward them to thirty strong men.

    However, the strong men were reluctant to accept it. One of them who followed him to pawnshop last time shouted: "Last time I went out for three days, the young master rewarded me with two taels of silver, which was extremely generous. This time it only lasted half a day, so I don't dare to accept it."  so much."

    "This time is different. We have been asked to take responsibility and use weapons. We should be given more."??Zhao Hao stood on the carriage with his arms folded and said with a smile: "Just keep it. At worst, it will be in vain for me next time."

    "Okay, thank you, Young Master! I can do it ten times for nothing!" The strong men happily accepted the money and dispersed with all their thanks.

    Then Zhao Hao pointed to the remaining nine and a half, and said to Zhao Xian: "You can use a few hundred taels of these silver to buy a house, and the rest will be deposited in Wanyuanhao. Together with the land, it will be enough for your family to have enough food and clothing."

    "This" Zhao Xian felt very uneasy when he saw that Zhao Hao was not taking any money. When he was about to say something, Zhao Hao had already turned around and entered the alley, stretching and shouting.

    "Oh, I'm exhausted. No one can disturb me. I want to sleep all day!"

    ??~~

    Things passed quickly, and Zhao Hao¡¯s life returned to peace.  He eats well every day, never tires of eating, bickers with Qiaoqiao, lectures students, occasionally shows up in the store, and dictates introductory textbooks on mathematics, physics, and chemistry in the evening, and his life is not too easy.  ¡­

    Half a month passed in the blink of an eye. On this day, Zhao Hao was enjoying the cool under the shade of a tree when he saw Zhao Xian poking his head outside the door.

    "Brother, come in and sit down." Zhao Hao sat up, called Zhao Xian in and said, "Let's try the big watermelon that was just delivered this morning."

    "Let's eat something good with my brother." Zhao Xian obviously relaxed a lot, but he was still a little restrained in front of Zhao Hao.

    This younger brother, who only knows how to play nonsense in his memory, seems to have become a different person since the family suffered a disaster, which makes people feel awe from the bottom of their hearts.

    Wang Wuyang, who was fanning Zhao Hao and warming up his book, gave up his seat to Zhao Xian.  Then he put down the book, fished a watermelon from the well, cut it into pieces quickly and put it on a plate.

    "Is everything settled?" Zhao Hao picked up the banana fan and fanned himself.

    "Everything has been settled." Zhao Xian nodded and said, "I rented a three-story courtyard over at Dashiqiao and bought a few maids and servants. It is more than enough to take care of the three of us."

    "That's good." Zhao Hao nodded.  According to his idea, the uncle's family would naturally live as far away as possible.  But Zhao Shouye might be afraid of being bullied, so he felt more at ease staying in Caijia Lane, where Zhao Hao had always said he was, so he even rented a house in this area.

    Zhao Shouzheng was naturally very happy to be able to see his eldest brother from time to time.  Zhao Hao didn't talk nonsense when he saw this, but on such a hot day, he would never show his face to his uncle's house.

    Then he saw Zhao Xian take out a land deed from his sleeve and said to him: "The Qian family has transferred the 500 acres of land to me. Your uncle asked me to transfer it to your name."

    "No need." Zhao Hao didn't want to help anyone and get a bad reputation for taking advantage of others, so he smiled and waved his hands and said: "I'm very happy that uncle can think of me. Why don't you keep it for the old man to support him in his old age.  "

    "Alas" Hearing him mention Zhao Liben, Zhao Xian looked gloomy and said, "No news about the old man?"

    "Yes." Zhao Hao nodded and said: "I sent a message from my hometown last time, saying that the old man left a letter and ran away. He only said that he was going sightseeing, so we don't have to worry. A few days ago, I asked Wu Yu to go to Xiuning again.  , still no news.¡±

    "The old man is out there, and he has suffered so much." Zhao Xian's eyes turned red, and he quickly wiped the corners of his eyes with his sleeves. He stuffed the land deed into Zhao Hao's arms and said, "Since you are providing for the old man's retirement, of course it is you, my brother, who is here to make the most arrangements."  good."

    When Zhao Hao looked at the land deed, he saw that the name of the land owner had been changed to his own.  You knew that Zhao Shouye had made up his mind to make amends with him.

    After all, we were all part of the same family, and he didn¡¯t want to be so distant from others, so he picked up the land deed and looked at it carefully, and couldn¡¯t help but be stunned.

    ??Ogurayama?

    Isn¡¯t this the location of the famous Sui Garden?

    Zhao Hao¡¯s heart moved and he stopped refusing.

    I heard Zhao Xian bite the bullet and say: "There is one more thing"

    "speak."

    "My father asked me to study. I'm really not that good. I want to learn business from you." Zhao Xian whispered.

    "How can that be done? You are the eldest son and grandson of my Zhao family. I dare not lead you astray." Zhao Hao quickly waved his hand, pinched Zhao Xian's thoughts and said: "The old man must make the decision in this matter, otherwise it will be useless for anyone to say it."  .¡±

    After a pause, he smiled at Zhao Xian again and said, "Besides, when did you see me doing business? I'm just an idler who comes up with random ideas."

    Seeing that Zhao Hao was not accommodating at all, Zhao Xian had to give up the idea temporarily.
