    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? away out and the "Kang" is hot, and the house is warm. This is true.

    Outside the house, the north wind is howling and the weather is freezing. But once the heated kang is warmed up, the whole house feels as warm as spring. If the cat doesn't go out, it will be much more comfortable than spending the winter in Jinling.

    Zhao Shixi came into the back room and felt like he was alive again.  But with the fierce god Gao Wu behind him, he still didn't dare to slack off. He reluctantly stood up straight and said respectfully to Zhao Hao: "Grandpa, please spare Sun thief. Sun thief really knows that he was wrong"

    "Sun thief, stop playing tricks with me. Who do you call grandpa?" Seeing that he was still trying to play tricks secretly, Zhao Hao sneered and said, "Call me uncle!"

    "Yes, uncle." Zhao Shixi shrank his neck. He didn't expect that Zhao Hao could speak Beijing so smoothly. His face suddenly turned pale, knowing that he had shot himself in the foot again.

    "It seems you still don't know what's wrong." Then Zhao Hao asked in a cold voice: "Then continue to accept the transformation."

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????: "I let this kid live, eat, and train with you a few years ago. Just treat him as an ordinary guard, no need to be special!"

    "Ah" Zhao Shixi suddenly felt dizzy. If Gao Wu hadn't grabbed his collar in time, this kid would have fallen to his knees.

    "Also, from now until the end of the year, you are prohibited from leaving the West Courtyard, you are prohibited from contacting those gangsters, you are prohibited from drinking and gambling, and you are prohibited from doing all prohibited things."

    Zhao Hao was not moved at all. He picked up the piece of paper Wang Wuyang had written and handed it to Gao Wudao: "Take it and implement it strictly!"

    "Yes!" Gao Wu replied in a muffled voice, taking over the rules and regulations drawn up by Zhao Hao for Zhao Shixi.

    Then, he carried Zhao Shixi and turned around to go out, but met Zhao Shouzheng coming in from the outside at the door.

    "Oh, I'm freezing to death" Zhao Shouzheng stood in the entrance hall rubbing his hands and stamping his feet, while Fang Wen helped him take off his fur hat, mink fur, and heavy felt boots.

    "Hey, why are you here again?" When Zhao Shouzheng saw Zhao Shixi, his face sank.

    "Call someone." Zhao Hao's voice came from inside through the thick curtain.

    "Grandpa." Zhao Shixi immediately lowered his head obediently and said, "It's all my grandson's fault, and he has apologized to you."

    There is no sonorous voice this time.

    "That's pretty much it." Zhao Shouzheng looked a little brighter when he heard this and said, "Kid, remember, you won't suffer from desserts."

    As he spoke, he took out a ticket from his sleeve pocket and said, "This is the meeting gift prepared by my uncle for you. If you had pretended to be a grandson earlier, it would have been yours long ago."

    Zhao Shixi took the ticket with both hands and looked at the amount on it. It was actually a thousand taels of silver. He couldn't help but open his mouth and regretted it.

    Originally, he just wanted to ask for a hundred and eighty taels

    "It's a pity that there is no regret medicine in the world, and there is no place to spend the money now."

    ??~~

    Gao Wu carried Zhao Shixi out, and Zhao Shouzheng entered the back room. He smiled at his son who stood up to greet him and said, "Why, my son has dealt with this bad boy?"

    "No way, I'm begging you so hard, I won't do it if I don't agree." Zhao Hao curled his lips with a wry smile. With such a lazy temper, it was already very hard for him to write books and teach his disciples every day.  If it weren't for the sake of letting the old brother embark on the journey without any worries, he wouldn't meddle in this matter.

    However, although Zhao Hao agreed to help discipline his eldest nephew, he didn't want to spend any time on this bad boy, so he kicked him directly to Gao Wu for correction.

    "Then you have to take good care of him." Zhao Shouzheng washed his hands and face, took off his shoes and got on the kang, leaned on the quilt, stretched slowly and said, "I'm exhausted"

    Eryang and Zhao Shizhen took away the pen and ink books on the table and asked the servants to start serving food.

    Over there, Zhao Jin came over a long time ago and told Zhao Hao that he had a party tonight and let them have dinner by themselves.

    Of course, the chef from Guanglu Temple who is on duty at the house will take care of everything, so they still don¡¯t have to worry about it.

    In a moment, the Kang table was filled with large plates and bowls of sea cucumbers roasted with green onions, stewed mutton, braised prawns, nine-turn large intestines, fire-grilled mutton skewers Even the cold dishes were all the four major Jiaodong dishes.

    "Today's chef must be a Shandong cuisine master." Zhao Shouzheng smiled and picked up a chopstick to cook sea cucumber with green onions and said: "This Shandong cuisine is salty, fresh and mellow. It is very different from the Jinling cuisine and Huaiyang cuisine we often eat."

    Zhao Hao and his disciples also started to move around the table, chatting while eating: "What have you been busy with father today? Are you so tired?"

    "Oh, don't mention it, the guild hall was robbed." Zhao Shouzheng took a sip of the old roast. It was so spicy that he frowned and said: "Our Yingtian guild hall was patronized for two nights in a row. The group that came to Beijing in the same year as me actually had half the number.  Everyone suffered."

    "Really?"??Wang Wuyang and Hua Shuyang looked at Zhao Shouzheng in surprise. The former said hurriedly: "When I was a guest at the home of fellow countryman Wang Shishu today, I heard that the Suzhou Guild Hall and Changzhou Guild Hall were also stolen."

    "Is the public security in the capital so bad?" Zhao Hao was also surprised.  I was also somewhat glad that I agreed to live in my old brother's house. This Chunsong Hutong was full of official residences and was guarded by soldiers, so no thieves dared to visit.

    "I heard that it's because there were too many refugees fleeing to Beijing the previous time I entered the country." Hua Shuyang replied: "The Chinese New Year is coming next month, so naturally there will be more people taking risks."

    "Yeah." Zhao Shouzheng nodded and said, "The official from Shuntian Prefecture said so too."

    "Oh, Shuntian Mansion?" Zhao Hao asked curiously: "Shouldn't this kind of theft case be handled by Wanping or Daxing County?"

    The capital city is similar to Nanjing in that two counties are attached to Guo. According to reports, cases should be under the jurisdiction of the county.  Only after the county has completed the matter or cannot handle it will it be reported to the government. It is rare to hear that the government will directly take care of such trivial matters.

    "I heard that it was because the property of more than a dozen people was stolen. The Shuntian Prefecture took over the case to express its concern." Zhao Shouzheng smiled happily at Zhao Hao and said, "Whether the Shuntian Prefecture is in charge, I never expected that Mr. Fu Cheng  He's actually your brother Wu's uncle, he promised to help pay attention to the case, and he even invited you to his home."

    "Oh?" Zhao Hao was a little surprised. He knew that Wu Kangyuan would try to introduce him to his uncle, but he didn't expect it to be so soon.  He thought he would have to wait until the New Year greetings to see him again.

    Feeling that things were not simple, he nodded to show that he understood.

    ??~~

    Before going to bed, the two apprentices and Zhao Shizhen went out, and Zhao Shouzheng reported the account to Zhao Hao:

    "When they came out of Shuntian Mansion, I saw that each of them was penniless, so I gave each of them two hundred taels of silver, and then went to Dashilan'er to hire a bodyguard to protect their residence in the guild hall. Now you gave me  Ten thousand taels of silver were spent on nearly four thousand taels in one day."

    As he said this, he couldn't help but smile: "It seems that with my father here, I might be able to complete the task even more than expected."

    "This is a good start." Zhao Hao also nodded and said with deep understanding: "After today, my father's reputation for Jiyu should be spread among his sons, and there will be more and more opportunities to spend money in the future.  .¡±

    It was freezing outside, and Zhao Hao wished he could stay on the kang every day without going out, so the burden of spending money fell on Zhao Shouzheng.

    "I'm not bragging because of my father, but when it comes to spending money, I'm an expert" Zhao Shouzheng said confidently.
