Things are put in the hands of different people, and the way of dealing with them will be different, and often good things can be done into bad things, and bad things can be turned into good things.
After the old lady found out all the shortcomings in the family, the way she dealt with it can be described as extremely clever.
Becoming a thief, most women will say it when they see it, how many people are willing to tolerate it as the wife of the house? The worst of them will not swallow their anger, they will weigh interpersonal relationships and interests, and then the means of dealing with them will vary from person to person.
But the old lady in her youth was not, she thought that all this money and food were my Xu family's right, for example, the family who planted vegetables, and the property that he had spent three years of hard work to accumulate was handed over to the owner once handed over to the owner, teach him what to do?
It's easy to chase back the money and food, but everyone doesn't dare to resent it on their lips, how can there be a reason not to hate in their hearts? Since you have a heart of resentment, you may not be able to afford to run away; And even if they don't escape, they have to leave morality from now on, and then let them do their best to support my Xu family, and they can't do it.
Didn't Uncle Ge say that it is not easy to lead the team when the people's hearts are scattered, but anyone who has the talent of leadership will definitely think so.
So the old lady plans to come up with a wonderful way to get the money and food back, and not let the people resent, and it is best not only not to resent, but also to convince them to do things wholeheartedly, this is called smart, after all, I am Xu Da's sister-in-law!
The old lady didn't know who Uncle Ge was, she remembered a famous sentence in the four books, "If wealth gathers, the people will disperse!" βγ In later generations, the great man pointed out that science is the primary productive force, and in ancient times, talent was the first productive force well-deserved. It seems to be smart, but it is the behavior of a loser.
At that time, the Xu family already owed a lot of foreign debts, and when the year came, those who collected debts came in an endless stream.
The Xu family had no money, and the debt collectors were angry and scolded. The old lady smiled and said to the whole family: "Go out and sue the sΓΉ family, saying that although my dowry is small, there are still a few things to repay the debt, but I will not open the box until the first day of the first month, and now there are not many days before the first day of the new year." Tell them to come back, and come back when the time comes, and it will be no less than a penny for him. β
The housekeeper waited for the family to come out and speak, and those people saw that the words of the grandmother of the Xu family were hard and went away happily.
At that time, the queen Zhang was still a little girl who had not yet left the cabinet, she was knowledgeable and knowledgeable, and she was the most trusted person of the old lady at a young age, so she secretly opened the cage while she was not in the room. There is no gold and silver that is soft and soft, it is all ordinary things, not to say that there is no silver, even valuable jewelry. There was not a single decent piece of clothing, and they had already taken it out to exchange for food and eaten.
Zhang hurriedly locked the box, scared in his heart, and was about to ask with a sad face. I saw that the old lady told the housekeeper to call the mother-in-law who sold things tomorrow, and bring more good jewelry and clothes. It should be purchased for the family.
Zhang was confused, and saw that the old lady instructed the woman in charge, telling her to invite the nun and the third aunt and the sixth woman to come to the house, to do a ritual and surpass the ghosts of the undead in their hometown.
When the news came out, the maid boy was not happy, who was not hungry at this time? How can the family have money so badly? They all ran over and said, "The food stored at home is only enough for a morning porridge tomorrow, begging my wife to send some silver out, so that I can buy tomorrow's grain and grass, I can't even eat rice, how can I go out and invite someone?" β
The old lady said seriously: "Don't worry about you, I was taught by the immortals when I was a child, you can cook without rice grains, just a few pieces of wet firewood, a pot of white water, you can cook rice, why use rice?" If you don't believe me, I'll try it tomorrow so that you don't go hungry. β
Who believes? Everyone passed around, and everyone thought she was telling jokes, or she was crazy.
On the second day, Zhang secretly worriedly looked at all the remaining rice grains at home and cooked a large pot of rice porridge. After eating, the old lady urged everyone to invite the three aunts and six mothers-in-law to come, with a chic posture of a loser.
Then he sent some people out, as if he wanted to avoid people to burn pills and alchemy, and he was nervous.
Zhang is very smart, knowing that the aunt must have a plan, but she can't guess what strange medicine she sells in the gourd, standing alone in front of the inner house, waiting for the maid to come back, and as they go in together, everyone replies to the words of the third aunt and six mothers-in-law, and makes an appointment to come tomorrow.
The old lady said to everyone: "You have been gone for a long time, are you hungry?" The rice has been cooked for a long time, so go and eat it quickly, so that you don't have to say that I won't be in charge all day long. β
Zhang's heart was shocked, and he hurriedly followed the big guy to the stove room, and someone went up and lifted the lid of the pot, and the aroma was overflowing in an instant, and it was indeed a big pot of fragrant rice.
The big guys were stunned, looking at each other one by one, picking it up and tasting it, the fly in the ointment is that the rice has been cooked for a long time, and the person is late when he comes back, so it is too ripe, and the taste is like the taste of old rice that has been cooked for a long time, but this is definitely genuine rice, it is really god!
Everyone stayed for a long time holding the rice, repeatedly chanting whether there are really gods in this world? Soon, the incident caused a sensation in the hometown.
Early the next morning, those three aunts and six nuns came early, please go to the house and sit down, the old lady said in public: "I never believed in the cause and effect of reincarnation, but now I know that it is not a lie. Because he recently dreamed of his deceased husband every night, saying that he would not be in charge of the house before his death, he was coaxed by others, and ruined his good furniture, and his father-in-law and mother-in-law regretted it, and sued the king of Hades to punish him for turning a pig into a dog. The deceased husband came to me every night and begged me to do some homework and exceed, but the slave family was not good at exposing their own ugliness, so they invited the master and relatives under other names, so that they could read some scriptures to him and let him reincarnate as soon as possible. β
Zhang's side was already numb, so he saw that the old lady paused, and continued: "It's just that there is a lack of firewood and rice at home, and there is a shortage of money, so I can only prepare some fasting offerings, but there is no money and other items. Please beg for rank, just give yourself blessings, read the friendship with my family on weekdays, and repent for the deceased husband. β
These people have often walked around the Xu family for many years, and they don't know how much money they coaxed, but now they have heard people swear that the grandmother of the Xu family knows how to do immortal arts, and the soldiers are in chaos, and they can't help but be scared when they hear the words of the needle hidden in this brocade.
They are not afraid of the dead but afraid of the living, Xu Da, who is famous, kills without blinking, who doesn't know that he has always respected his sister-in-law the most. His wife, sons, and daughters are entrusted to Grandma Xu to take care of, and her sister-in-law is like a mother.
In other words, offending the deceased is offending Grandma Xu, and offending Grandma Xu is offending the famous general Xu Da, offending Xu Da, and offending the killing god Zhu Yuanzhang!
Again, women have always believed in ghosts and gods, and they can't keep it from happening, once the deceased denounces it. What should I do if I confess myself in front of Hades? So right now, I can't wait to repent of others, and also repent for my own family.
In short, the big guys agreed, and the righteous promised not to pay for scriptures, and would rather make a merit in vain, which was to admire the future queen mother.
The old lady was very satisfied, chose a good day, and sent them all out of the door, and the old god was waiting for the mother-in-law to trade.
Zhang didn't ask. Instead, he sat quietly on the side of the idol, and his delicate and beautiful eyes spewed out with the little stars of worship.
The mother-in-law who sold goods at noon came, and happily took out a lot of clothes and jewelry, and I don't know where to get them. Some are even rare pieces of jewelry.
Zhang's accompanied the unfathomable old lady, selected some jewelry according to the head, and selected some good floral cloth and said that he wanted to make clothes for everyone, and the maids and women rushed to peek. A look of greed.
The old lady bargained unhurriedly, and the mother-in-law saw that this lady in charge was a rare good customer, nothing more than the same as other wives. It's a good deception.
This is the first time to deal with, it is definitely necessary to let some sweetness come out, and there will be a chance to earn it back in the future, so one or two pieces of silver jewelry will be given to eight dollars, and so on.
The total price was agreed, and the old lady asked someone to take the scale, and went into the room to get the silver. Everyone huddled into the room, watching with wide eyes as she cashed in the money.
Sure enough, the old lady came out with a heavy package, opened it and saw that the silver was in ingots, scattered, and rusty copper coins, and was weighed in public and handed over to the mother-in-law to take away.
At this moment, the whole family was once again a sensation, some people said that it was brought from their mother's house, some people said that it was secretly sent back by the second young master, and some people were suspicious of the five ghosts from elsewhere, everyone was suspicious, and of course everyone was happy.
Only Zhang's was completely shocked, there was obviously nothing of value in the cage, where did so much silver come from? If my father returns with money, he will probably write to me, oops! There is no doubt that the aunt must be a fairy.
Since then, the Zhang family has regarded Lao Taijun as a fairy, and he is obedient and loyal to everything.
On the first day of the first lunar month, large and small creditors gathered at the Xu family, and the old lady asked someone to come out and spread the word: "There is no silver, if you want jewelry and clothes, how many pieces are there, do you want it?" If you want to, you will take away and settle the accounts; If you don't want to, then next time you have to wait until a year and a half later, and wait for the women of the Xu family to do some female workers every day, sew military uniforms, military shoes, insoles, etc., and take them to the barracks to exchange money, and then pay them back when they have saved enough. β
Can you still collect money for sending warmth to the rebels in these years? The creditors secretly say that you are fooling!
It is not easy for anyone, and the debt collector only wants to get back the capital, and the fool continues to pay on credit. These people don't care, those who want jewelry want jewelry, they want clothes, and they have to pinch their noses to admit that they lose money, and no one dares to say that I am a loan shark.
The problem is that the old lady didn't do it, and she wanted to take it away, right? Yes! Jewelry worth one tael was bought for eight dollars of silver, and now it is counted as one or two or six dollars, do you want to love it.
Who would dare not to? When Xu Da comes back with the army, all bad debts will be wasted, modern military wives can't afford to mess with, and ancient military wives you can't afford to mess with.
The method of turning the left hand into the right hand can't hide from the family, it's obvious, and the old lady doesn't intend to hide it, he continues to show a little cleverness, just to ask his people to take a look, knowing that the master mother is the master who is good at deceiving others, so can such a smart person be deceived by others?
Soon, the attitude of the whole family has changed significantly, respectfully and respectfully, with a loyal face, as the saying goes, good birds choose trees to perch, thinking of their hometown, Xu Da, Liu Bowen and other cattle people all voluntarily follow Zhu Chongba, the monk who herds cattle and asks for food, why? Zhu Chongba is the most treacherous! In the same way, it can be proved that there will be meat to eat with the cunning grandmother.
So, on the day of confession, everyone was like a good man in Liangshan who worshiped Song Jiang as a great leader, fasted and bathed devoutly, and worshiped and confessed with the nuns and Taoist women for three days and three nights.
Of course, people's hearts are the most difficult to subdue, it doesn't matter, although Zhang, who is a dog-headed military advisor, is young, he is full of talent, and he has already helped put forward a number of suggestions.
Unexpectedly, it was these interesting things that made the Zhang family fall into Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes in one fell swoop, and decided early that she was the virtuous daughter-in-law of our stupid fourth son.
