Chapter 439 Fine Willow

Miss Xiliu, from the Central Plains. The waist is slender, cute, intelligent since childhood, coarsely understands words, and is proficient in phology.

Xiliu has a quiet personality. She doesn't like to talk about the length of people. She is famous outside, and there is an endless stream of people seeking relatives. Xi Liu met him one by one. There were many people who read them, but they did not like any of them. He was nearly nineteen years old and was still single.

Parents were angry and picky and scolded, "Is there no good match in the world? Are you picky? Do you want to be an old girl?"

Xi Liu said, "I thought that people can win the sky, but I don't know that marriage is unpredictable and can't be forced. From now on, it is up to your parents to decide all the major matters of marriage.

A high school student in the county, a famous family, has heard the name of thin willow for a long time, and came to ask for marriage. The two sides agreed immediately, set an auspicious day, and sent the daughter to the wedding.

After marriage, the husband and wife are harmonious and respectful. Gao Sheng's ex-wife has a son, whose nickname is Changfu, and he is five years old. The thin willows take good care of them, take good care of them, and the mother and son are deeply affectionate.

A year later, the slender willow gave birth to a son, named Changqi. Gao Sheng asked what it meant, and Xi Liu said, "You can rely on it." I don't mean anything else. I just hope that Changqi can stay with me.

Xiliu is not good at female workers, is a good broker, and good at financial management. How much land is there in the family? The importance of taxes should be kept in mind. On this day, the husband and wife gossiped, and Xi Liu said, "I don't know if it's possible for my concubine to take care of the family affairs?"

Gao Sheng said, "You are willing to take the initiative to share your worries for me. I can't ask for it." Since then, there has been no more housekeepers, and all the big and small affairs have been handed over to Xiliu for handling. In such a half-year time, there has been no loss.

Half a year later, Gao Sheng went to the neighboring village to drink. It was suitable for officials to come to the door and urge Tian Fu to hand over. There is not much leftover food in the family, and it is difficult to raise Xiliu for a while. He is kind and kind, and I beg the officials to forgive them for a few days. The officials didn't listen, wandered around the room and refused to leave.

Xiliu couldn't do it, so he had to urgently call Gao Sheng back and ask him what countermeasures he had. Gao Sheng said, "This matter is easy. If you want to have a grace, how can there be no reason not to lose money? Study hard." He took out silver from his arms, bribed the officials, and easily sent him away.

After the official left, Gao Sheng smiled and said, "Xi Liu, as the saying goes, 'A wise woman is not like a crazy man'. No matter how a woman can do it, she is not as good as a man after all. Let's have a discussion: the house is busy and thankless. I'd better be the housekeeper in the future.

Xiliu refused and cried, "Who says that women are not as good as men? I will definitely prove it to you."

Since then, I have become more and more diligent and sleep at night. Every year in advance, there is no mistake when paying the rent. In this way, clothes and cloth are stored in silver, and the family has a lot of money, and the cost is more than enough.

The wife is so virtuous, and Gao Sheng is very happy. She often jokes with her, "How thin willows be thin: thin eyebrows, thin waist, slender waves, and more careful." Xiliu replied with a smile, "Gao Langcheng is high: high quality, high ambition, high writing, I hope the longevity is particularly high." He laughed and laughed, but he was worried in his heart, "The father-in-law's fortune is limited. I look at his appearance. He is not a long-lived person. It's better to make an early plan."

There are coffin sellers in the village. Xiliu did not hesitate to buy it with a lot of money. There was not enough silver, and he borrowed money from his neighbors. Gao Sheng smiled and said, "This is not an urgent thing. Don't buy it." Many times to stop, Xiliu didn't listen.

In the past year, a rich family was in mourning, and there was an urgent need for a good longevity coffin. There was no disposal in a hurry. I specially asked for a thin willow to buy it. The bid was extremely high, several times the cost. Seeing that it was profitable, Gao Sheng persuaded Xiliu to sell the coffin. Xiliu refused. He asked her the reason, silently asked, asked again and again, and burst into tears.

Another year later, the high school student was just 25 years old. Xiliu knew that his life would not be long ago, so he was forbidden to travel far away. When he returned home a little later, he sent a child servant to urge him. On this day, Gao Sheng had a banquet with his friends. He suddenly felt unwell and said goodbye. On the way back, he fell to the ground and returned to the west. It was a hot summer, and the weather was hot, and the body was extremely perishable. Fortunately, Xiliu had a coffin and birthday clothes in advance, calmly taken care of the funeral, and buried it. Everything went well.

I was ten years old that year, and I just started to learn literature. When his father died, he was unadled and refused to study. He played with the shepherd boy every day and taught him repeatedly. Xi Liu was angry and beat him violently, but it had little effect. Changfu was stubborn, so I was still stubborn.

Xiliu had no choice but to say, "You don't want to study, and I don't want to force it. It's just that there are no idle people in the poor family, and no one can sit and eat empty. From today on, you will operate with your servants and be self-relied. Otherwise, take care of your skin.

Changfu nodded and agreed, grazing pigs and sheep every day, wearing shabby clothes. There is no meat to eat, no table to sleep, and the rice is unbearable. A few days later, Changfu was too tired to work and deeply regretted. He knelt in the court for a long time, asked to repeat the reading, repented and admitted his mistake, and cried silently.

The thin willow is unmoved, and the wall is speechless and ignored. Changfu played a scoundrel, cried and crawled, and didn't leave. The thin willow couldn't laugh or cry. He picked up the rattan and beat him. Changfu couldn't bear the pain and fled in confusion.

In the following days, Changfu and his servants lived with livestock. In the autumn and winter, he had no clothes and no shoes. He couldn't stand it, so he simply ran away from home.

The thin willows are not retained, and they are left to be left. After several months, Changfu wandered around, begging for a living, hagged and thin. Finally, he woke up and returned home, pleaded guilty, willing to accept the responsibility of a hundred sticks, and only asked for his mother's forgiveness.

Xi Liu asked, "Do you know it's wrong?"

Changfu said, "The child knows what's wrong."

Xiliu said, "If you know it's wrong, I won't hit you. Feed the pigs peacefully in the future. If you do it again, you will not forgive it.

Changfu cried, "I would rather be beaten, but I don't want to feed pigs anymore. Please ask my mother to let me read."

Xiliu said, "If you promise me to work hard and let you study, it's all." As he spoke, he hugged Changfu in his arms, washed his hair, put on new clothes, and ordered him to study with his brother.

Since then, Changfu has changed his mind and studied hard. Three years later, he was admitted as a scholar. His article was magnificent and he was deeply valued by Lord Zhongcheng. He was given to Yinliang every month to help him study.

My younger brother is long and dull. He has studied for several years and can't remember his name yet. Xiliu knew that his career was hopeless, so he turned to persuade him to work in agriculture. Changqi is idle, and he is most afraid of suffering. Every time he ploughs, he is always lazy. The thin willow is furious and scolds, "Schoroman, industry and commerce is the foundation of the country. You don't want to study or farm. Do you want to starve to death? Fuck the stick and beat it randomly.

Since then, I have been working with farmers for a long time. Xiliu's supervision was very strict, he was a little slack, and he was immediately scolded. Ordinary clothes and diet are so cheap that they can't be compared with my brother at all. Changqi didn't say anything, and his heart was not clear.

Then after the agricultural work was completed, Xiliu paid for the money and lived for a long time to do business and be self-reliant. Changqi is good at gambling and lustful. He buys money and is empty in a blink of an eye. For fear of his mother's punishment, he lied that he met a thief and used this to deceive him. How shrewd Xiliu is, a little investigation, and the truth is clear. Without saying anything, it was another violent beating. Thanks to Changfu's plea for mercy, he was lucky enough to pass the test.

Changqi was beaten and scolded repeatedly. He was frightened and slightly restrained his evil deeds. In fact, his nature was difficult to change, and he was still rebellious in his bones.

On this day, Changqi told his mother that he planned to go to Luoyang to do business. It's called Shangjin, but in fact, you can take this opportunity to travel and hang out.

The thin willow's heart is bright, but it is not broken, that is, thirty taels of broken silver, thinking that it is entangled, and giving away an ingot of gold, he said, "This is an ancestral relic. It can't be used lightly. I'll lend you to suppress the goods for the time being in case of a rainy day. When you do business for the first time, I don't expect you to make money. As long as you can keep 30 taels, that's enough. I urge you to rest for a long time.

Changqi, pregnant with a huge wealth, arrived in Luoyang, declined business travel, and stayed in a brothel. Every day, he fooled around with famous prostitute Li Ji. After more than ten days, the broken silver was run out. He thought he had a lot of money, so he didn't worry about it. After a few days, I took out the gold ingots and banknotes. After a closer look, it was a piece of fake silver, the outside was plated with gold water, and the inside was only a piece of scrap iron.

Li Ji was furious, her mouth and face changed, with a cold appearance, sneer and ridicule, and her words were vicious. That night, Changqi sat alone in a brothel, full of loss, had the intention to leave, and was greedy for Li Ji's beauty. He thought, "Li Ji has been friends with me for half a month. She should take care of the old feelings and will never drive me away."

Before I finished thinking about it, I suddenly heard the sound of footsteps. Two officials broke into the room with chains in their hands and shouted, "Kid, drink flower wine and eat free food. Your case is a criminal. Come with us." He can't help saying that he put iron cuffs on Changqi and put him in prison.

It turned out that Li Ji was ruthless. She secretly stole the ingot fake silver and went to the government to complain and asked for prostitute money.

Changqi was in prison, tasted all the hardships, survived every day, and regretted too much.

At the beginning, Chang Yu traveled to Luoyang. Xiliu said to Changfu, "Twenty days later, you can go to Luoyang for me. Don't forget it." Changfu asked, "Why?" Xiliu said, "Your brother's behavior is frivolous, similar to what you used to be. If it hadn't been for my cruel teaching, how could I have been you today? Everyone said that I was indifferent, but I cried secretly and my tears were wet. Who knows? Your brother is obsessed with bad habits and is difficult to be good without hardships. On that day, I deliberately gave him fake silver, just to frustrate his edges and corners. If the expectation is not bad, Changqi must be trapped in prison at this moment. Lord Zhongcheng is good friends with you. You can go and plead for mercy to save your brother from the disaster. I believe that after this, he will definitely change his past and become a new person.

Changfu was taught and went to Luoyang according to his words. Its long blessing is valued by the Lord Zhongcheng, and it is well-known, and the county magistrate has known it for a long time. Hearing that he was Changqi's brother, he immediately released Changqi without saying a word.

When the two brothers returned home, Changqi was worried about his mother's scolding. He knelt down and sincerely pleaded guilty. Xiliu scolded with a straight face: "This trip to Luoyang made such a noise, can you achieve your wish?" Changqi just cried and didn't dare to say anything. Changfu pleaded for mercy, and the fury willows dissipate.

Since then, Changqi has changed his bad habits. He is a man of his own nature. He is honest and trustworthy in business. He has accumulated for several years and saved ten thousand taels of gold and is rich. As for Changfu, he is also working hard to be strong. He has been in the middle of the year, has been in the past for three years, and has been in the first place, and the scenery is infinite.
