Chapter 136 Expansion of the Army 10
Zhao Xin sat down and said with a smile, "Old lady, you are an elder, so you don't want Mr. Zhao to call me. Brother Zhao and I are the common generation. You can just call me by my name. My name is Zhao Xin."
Zhao's mother nodded, "Okay, Zhao Xin, this is a good name."
He looked at Zhao Xin a few times and said with a smile, "It's true and righteous. It's lucky for you to see that your heavenly court is full, the earth is round, and your face is very good. You should be a righteous and trustworthy person. It's lucky for luxury to make friends like you."
Zhao Xin laughed and said, "I didn't expect the old lady to be able to meet others. It's really rare."
Zhao's mother laughed and said, "I don't know anything about the old man's appearance. It's just that I've been living for decades. I've seen countless people, and I've learned a lot about people. The so-called face has a heart. If the idea in a person's heart is wrong, it will definitely make people feel uncomfortable. But if a person is upright in his heart, his face will naturally make people feel good and have a close heart.
When Zhao Xin heard what Zhao's mother said was interesting, he also smiled and echoed a few words. Zhao She looked at it with a smile and did not interrupt.
After talking with Zhao Xin for a while, Zhao's mother glanced at Zhao She, who was beside her, and said with concern, "Xia, I heard from the neighbors that you are going to collect taxes at Gongzijia's house today. This prince Jia is the personal uncle of the current lord's father. He is very powerful. Is your little tax collector coming to collect taxes? Is there any embarrassment for you?"
Zhao She smiled and just said, "At first, there must be some. The servants under Gongzijia relied on the power of their masters and did not pay attention to me as a tax collector. But later, the prince Jia came out in person. He was the prince of the current dynasty, and he was deeply righteous. After my words, he not only did not embarras me, but promised to make up all the taxes owed.
Zhao's mother nodded slightly and said, "I didn't think that this prince Jia was a reasonable person. Originally, I was worried that he would embarrass you because of this, which was the best."
Zhao confidently knew that Zhao She was afraid of his mother's worry, so he deliberately said so. At the moment, he didn't say anything, but just listened with a smile.
I saw Zhao's mother ask Zhao She again; "I haven't seen Ying'er come home for a long time. I miss you very much. Your young couple are uncomfortable."
Zhao She was stunned when she heard the words. She looked at Zhao Xin with some embarrassment and looked at Zhao's mother again. Her intention was self-evident.
Unexpectedly, Zhao's mother suddenly sank her face and said angrily, "I'm asking you, do you still want to find an excuse to prevaricate me? Yes, Mr. Zhao is an outsider, but I have to ask you in front of outsiders what's wrong with you and Yinger. It turns out that she will come home to accompany me every few days, but now I haven't heard from her for half a month. Every time I ask you, you lie to fool my old woman. Do you really think your mother is blind?
Speaking of this, Zhao's mother's eyebrows stood up, her eyes were wide open, and the stick in her hand hit the ground heavily, and she couldn't help coughing heavily under her emotional excitement. Seeing this, Zhao She hurried forward and patted her back, and it took a while to calm Zhao's mother's cough down. Zhao Xin beside him guessed most of it. It must be Zhao She's father who embarrassed the two of them, so Zhao's mother couldn't get rid of her at home. However, this is Zhao She's private matter. Naturally, it is not easy for an outsider to interfere, so he shut up and don't say a word, just watch quietly.
When Zhao's mother saw Zhao She's bitter face, she had guessed a little in her heart. She reached out and grabbed Zhao She's hand and sighed, "Tell your mother, is it Lin Min's bastard to stop you again?"
Seeing Zhao Xin whispering and acquiescing to her words, Zhao's mother suddenly became angry and spit heavily on the ground, "I knew it was this ungrateful son of a bitch."
Zhao She said with an embarrassed face, "Mother, Uncle Lin is also an elder after all. So he is not very good."
Zhao's mother said angrily, "What kind of elder is not an elder? This ungrateful thing also deserves your elder? When he was depressed, how did our Zhao family treat him? But since your father passed away, he has lived in our family all the time. You and Yinger are free childhood sweethearts. At the beginning, Lin Min strongly advocated the marriage, but now he wants to regret the marriage and want to give birth to you. Do you think there is such an elder? Does he deserve to be your elder?
Before Zhao She could speak, Zhao Xin, who was beside him, had been "angry" and said righteously; "Of course, it doesn't deserve it. If a person has no faith, he will not stand up. What's more, he is backrighteous and behind. This kind of unfaithful person, Zhao Xin, can't wait to spit on his face and humiliate his name!"
As soon as Zhao Xin's words fell, Zhao's mother immediately clapped her hands and laughed, " Mr. Zhao is really a reasonable person, and he is not wrong."
stared at Zhao She again and said, "You still don't want to tell the truth. Do you have to die in front of you for your mother?"
Zhao She didn't dare to prevaricate, so he had to say it honestly.
It turned out that Lin Min wanted his daughter to marry a powerful son of a powerful family as his basis for climbing up. Naturally, he didn't like Zhao She, a poor boy, so he intervened in every way to break up the marriage. Unexpectedly, Lin Ying was a strong and independent woman. Instead of succumbing to her father's intention, she often took the opportunity to go to Zhao She's house to take care of Zhao's mother. After Lin Min found it, she was furious and locked her at home, forbade her to step out of the house.
A few days ago, I found a marriage for her. I heard that the legitimate son of a very powerful family fell in love with Lin Ying. The prince himself was also young and promising. He became a lieutenant at a young age, and his future was unlimited. Lin Min was so careless about the powerful that he actually wanted to give his daughter to him as a concubine. After hearing the rumors, Zhao She couldn't sit still. She hurried to Lin's house to question her, but was beaten out by Lin Min. In full view, she claimed that if Zhao She could not be a colonel, she would not want to marry her daughter again in her life.
Zhao's mother's face was full of anger, and she snorted heavily, "Well, Lin Min, you are really a dog-eyed person. I have military armor in my heart, and Wen Taowu is slightly hidden in my heart. Don't say a small captain, even the general above ten thousand people will do it sooner or later. However, you are blind. I don't think so."
If ordinary people listen to Zhao's mother's words, I'm afraid they will think it's nonsense of a wilderness village woman. It's just that Zhao Xin had a conversation with Zhao She before, and he was convinced of his talent, so he didn't feel ridiculous to listen to what Zhao's mother said. Zhao's mother looked at Zhao She and asked, "So what's your plan?" Is it possible to let Lin Min do it?
Zhao She hesitated and took a look at Zhao Xin before saying, "I went to visit Lieutenant Zhao of the Yulin Army and begged him to introduce me to my father for the position of Lieutenant Yulin. It is said in the world that the master is the only one who is useful, treats people fairly, and never burys a person's talent. So I went to see my father and might be appreciated by him.
Zhao's mother nodded when she heard the words and said, "This Lieutenant Zhao is a sensible person. His eyes are not blind, and he finally knows my family's extravagant talents. After this happens, we should thank him and don't forget it.
Zhao Xin couldn't help touching his nose and felt funny in his heart. Zhao's mother has been sick and lying in bed at home for many years. She doesn't care about most of the outside world. She hasn't even heard of the reputation of Zhao Xin, a famous young hero in Handan. She just intuitively thinks that the captains are all old strong men. How could she imagine that it would be Zhao Xin's thin and tender little white face.
Zhao's mother turned around and stared at Zhao She and said, "What does it mean that you may be appreciated by the master? Is it possible that you don't have confidence in yourself? With your ability, who can be compared with the whole State of Zhao? If the master's vision is extraordinary, it's okay. If it's a false monarch, it's meaningless for you to stay in the State of Zhao. I heard that the King of Yan is recruiting talents, and I hope to get a general to share the country of Yan equally. It's good for you to go to the State of Yan to try the opportunity. When he is on the ground, I think Lin Min will be ashamed to death.
