Zhao Shouzheng's brothers were really busy for a few days before they repurchased all the furniture and furnishings in the new house. He also hired a steward and a cook, and bought a servant and a maid, and the silver was spent like flowing water.

At the end of the month, there was a balance of 5,000 taels......

After Guy Zhao Shouzheng was lifted, people came to the door almost every day to apprentice, some fellow villagers came to send congratulatory gifts, and all kinds of people came to offer. Especially those Hui businessmen, who had the intention to mend the previously broken relationship, first competed to Caijia Lane to congratulate the joy, and then came to the Zhao Mansion to celebrate the Zhao family's housewarming, and there was really two blood.

There are also many matchmakers who came to the door to propose marriage to Zhao Hao's father and son. Many people know that the position of the wife is unattainable, so they aim for the position of the concubine. If they all should come down, the father and son will already have ten concubines per capita......

But they were all pushed away by Zhao Shouzheng on the grounds that his father was not there.

As the saying goes, once bitten by a snake and afraid of the well rope for ten years, Zhao Shouzheng now has a headache when he hears someone proposing to kiss.

But the more frightened you are, the more you can't run away from this kind of thing.

Early this morning, someone came to the door again......

Outside the gate of Zhao's mansion, two sedan chairs fell behind the wall, and one of the sedan chairs came down with the sacrificial wine of the Guozi Supervisor Zhou.

The person on the other sedan chair refused to get out of the sedan chair for a long time.

Zhou Xijiu waited impatiently, opened the sedan curtain and urged: "It's all here, why don't you come down?" ”

"I'm not going."

Sitting in the sedan chair was Liu Yuanwai, the president of the Suzhou Chamber of Commerce and the No. 2 person in the Dongting Business Gang, who hugged his arms and said with a gloomy face: "That kid has made me lose face, how can I get up and humiliate him again?" ”

"And what are you doing here?" Zhou Sacrifice Wine Qi Dao.

"You deadlifted me." Liu Yuanwai pouted and said, "I'm just going to see how you can turn over this game?" ”

"Okay, I admit that I have an element of gambling," Zhou Saijiu couldn't help but smile bitterly: "But what if the bet wins, then it won't even come back with interest." ”

"Okay, good luck." Liu Yuanwai pointed to the 'Zhao Mansion' plaque that had been re-hung on the gate, and shook his hand and lowered the sedan curtain.

"I don't understand, a businessman, still wants to save face so much." Zhou Saijiu shook his head, so he had to ask someone to hand over the prayer post and go to the door alone.

~~

In the back house, as soon as Zhao Hao pushed down the rice bowl, he went to work in the side courtyard.

Zhao Shouye couldn't help but ask strangely: "What is this kid doing all day long?" God mysterious. ”

Zhao Shouzheng looked through the gift list and said casually: "Who knows, the day before yesterday, I invited a master who sharpens mirrors from the Confucius Temple shop, and the two have been tinkering in the house, and I don't know what they are doing." ”

After a pause, Zhao Shouzheng said proudly: "Come to think of it, my son should have another way to make a fortune......

"Oh, the ancestral grave of our old Zhao family is smoking." Zhao Shouye couldn't help but sigh again: "Half a year ago, I didn't dare to think about it......"

While the brothers were talking, the butler came in to report that Zhou Saijiu had come to visit.

"Second child, you are in the middle of this, what bulls, ghosts, snakes and gods have run out." Zhao Shouye sighed and asked strangely, "What is he doing here?" ”

"How do I know, it can't be another proposition." Zhao Shouzheng laughed.

"What a thick skin...... Zhao Shouye pursed his lips, and the brothers laughed.

Having said that, how to say it, Zhou Saijiu is also Zhao Shouzheng's teacher, and now Zhao Shouzheng has stepped into the officialdom with one foot, but he is not as willful as before.

The brothers went to the gate together to greet them, and invited Zhou Sai to the flower hall for tea.

Seeing that the brothers of the Zhao family were so polite, and the weekly sacrificial wine was up and down, I made up a lot of my mind.

But he looked left and right, but he only said polite words without being salty, and refused to get to the point.

Zhao Shouzheng understood and asked, "Is Da Sicheng looking for me?" ”

"Uh, hehe, yes." Zhou Xijiu nodded awkwardly and said, "Can you please ask Ling Gongzi to come out and talk together?" ”

"Okay." Zhao Shouzheng's brothers are not surprised, Zhao Hao was originally the backbone of this family.

asked the housekeeper to quickly invite the second son over.

~~

In the small courtyard, Zhao Hao was sitting there, watching the high-speed railsmith use a small hammer to knock a piece of brass thinner and thinner.

What he needed, the mirror grinding master couldn't do it alone, and he had to ask the high-speed railsmith to come and help.

Fortunately, Wei Jixian was on the right track, and Xiaocang Mountain did not start construction, and the high-speed railman had nothing serious to do except for staring at Zhao Hao's new residence on the construction site behind.

The high-speed railsmith hasn't touched the hammer for a long time, and his hands have long been itching. This time I was able to return to my old business, and I was naturally very excited, and while banging on the small hammer, I still didn't have a good face: "This brass is too light and soft, and you don't need to go overboard. ”

"Isn't that as simple as possible?" Zhao Hao smiled and glanced at Master Lu who was grinding the mirror next door. The heart says that it is good to have money, as long as you move your mouth, and some professionals will do it for you.

"That doesn't show the craftsmanship of the old man." But the high-speed railman didn't find it enjoyable, and proposed: "I'll chisel you a flower on it later." ”

"As you please." Zhao Hao smiled and pointed to the drawings hanging on the wall and said, "As long as you don't get out of shape." ”

"Childe said this, we are old ways to play the barrel of a gun, and doing this is a piece of cake......"

The two were talking nonsense, and Gao Wu came in to report that Zhou Saijiu was coming.

"Okay." Zhao Hao had no choice but to leave the old man first, follow the housekeeper waiting outside, and go to the flower hall to meet the guests.

~~

In the flower hall, seeing Zhao Hao coming in, Zhou Saijiu actually subconsciously got up to greet him.

But suddenly realizing that this was unseemly, he was busy restraining his body and owed his body instead.

This made Zhao Shouye secretly surprised, and said in his heart What kind of method did Zhao Hao do, actually eat the wine of a dignified countryman and eat so dead?

Zhao Hao was also very polite, and gave a teacher-student salute to Zhou Saijiu, and then was willing to accompany the last seat.

"Can you let the official talk to Ling Gongzi alone?" Zhou Xijiu looked at the Zhao family brothers, and the two knew that he was here to find Zhao Hao, so they left with interest.

When there was no one else in the flower hall, Zhou Saijiu stood up suddenly, as if there was a needle on the chair.

"Zhao Gongzi ......" Zhou Saijiu shook Zhao Hao deeply, bowed his waist and said: "The officials have done everything that should be done, and I have also cut off contact with Shao Fang, can this matter be stopped?" ”

"Da Sicheng is suspicious, so he made it clear to you that day that the things that need to be done are done, and we will settle the matter." Zhao Hao sat on the official hat chair, dusted off the floating ash on the brocade robe, and said lightly: "Why bother to ask again?" ”

"Isn't it unsteady?" Zhou Xijiu took out a handkerchief to wipe his sweat, and then he breathed a sigh of relief and said: "I don't feel at ease if I don't listen to my son's own words and forgive me." ”

"Now you can rest assured?" Zhao Hao stood up, straightened the wrinkled sleeves of Zhou Xianjiu, and said with a faint smile: "Please go back if you have nothing to do, I'm still busy." ”

"Uh, there's one more thing......" Zhou Xijiu stiffened his head and met Zhao Hao's gaze.
