Chapter 1003: Zhuangzi Borrowed Grain (2)


The son has been in the Jianhe Hou family for so many years, and he is not afraid of people's jokes, Zhuangzi doesn't know what his daughter-in-law looks like, and what his grandson and granddaughter look like.

Originally, he could visit his son, daughter-in-law, grandson, and granddaughter at any time through his inner vision or mental realm, but he didn't want to worry too much, so he couldn't help but go.

As long as the son thinks that he is doing well, the son is willing, this is the son's life, and being a father and mother can't do everything.

If everything is done, it will intervene and affect his son's life.

Taoism has such a constitutional outline, that is, it does not affect the life and survival of others, and does not let the life and survival of others affect us.

There is another one: that is, Zhuangzi and Mai'er were not satisfied with this family affair at the beginning, and they agreed to it in order to avoid military service.

Zhuang Su has always been willing, and they are willing.

When the Marquis of Jianhe heard that Zhuangzi was coming, he was shocked on the spot.

I thought to myself: What is this poor ghost doing in our house?

But out of etiquette and superficiality, he still put down his work, went out of the study, came to the gate, and welcomed his in-laws.

"Ahhh Zhuangzi wore a clean old silk clothes, this set of clothes has been worn for many years, both in style and fabric, it is outdated.

Usually he doesn't wear this dress, it's all linen coarse clothes, and he wears clothes with patches.

Since being told by King Wei Hui, he has made this new set of clothes and made a pair of high-end shoes.

Zhuangzi naturally bowed according to the etiquette in the world, and looked like he knew etiquette very well.

In fact, he hated this set of false artificiality in his heart.

Taoism emphasizes the truth of the heart, and hates the artificiality and falsehood on the surface.

Respecting others in your heart is true, and no matter how polite you pretend to be on the surface, it's fake.

When the Marquis of Jianhe saw the clothes Zhuangzi was wearing today, he despised it in his heart, but he still tolerated it.

As long as he doesn't dress so shamefully and doesn't let the people around him see the joke, it's fine.

After entering the hall, he quickly instructed his subordinates to make tea and prepare wine and food.

Then he politely cared about Zhuangzi.

Zhuangzi went straight and told the current situation of the people around him.

"Alas, I really can't bear that their husbands have died in battle, and the family is left with orphans and widows, and the babies are too young to live.

If the baby is older, you can help, and life will be better.

Alas" Zhuangzi was about to open his mouth to borrow money or grain, when Zhuang Su came with his daughter-in-law and children.

"Dad" Zhuang Su stepped forward to kowtow to his father.

"Dad" A tall and obese middle-aged woman also knelt in front of him and kowtowed to him.

No need to ask, this is probably his daughter-in-law, Zhuang Su's wife, and the daughter of the Marquis of Jianhe.

Three little dolls dressed in silk and silk stood on the side, looking scared and curious, looking at Zhuangzi.

The largest is a girl, about five or six or seven years old, and she is chubby.

The other two are boys, one is four or five years old, and the other is three or four years old.

"Call grandfather" Zhuang Su stood up, hugged the three babies into his arms, and then pushed them forward to let the babies kneel.

Only then did the three babies kneel down and kowtow to their grandfather.

"Hey, get up, get up" Zhuangzi quickly got up and helped the three babies up.

Then he took out the prepared jade pendant from his pocket and handed it to the three babies.

In Zhuangzi's house, there are still many jade pendants, but they can't be sold for money.

Well, this time, I can take this opportunity to give it to my grandchildren and granddaughters.

The chubby daughter-in-law was very happy to see that her father-in-law was okay.

She took the jade from her daughter and son, and when she saw that it was a fine jade, she couldn't help but move.

After returning the jade pendant to his children, he knelt down in front of Zhuangzi and kowtowed.

"Daddy" the fat daughter-in-law begged: "You haven't given me a gift yet" Zhuangzi opened his mouth, pretending to be helpless.

"Daddy" Seeing that his daughter-in-law wanted it again, Zhuangzi had to take out a pair of large jade pendants from his arms and hand them to the chubby daughter-in-law.

"Daddy thank you, daddy thank you" Seeing that it was a pair of high-grade jade pendants, the fat daughter-in-law was very surprised.

Seeing this, the Marquis of Jianhe was angry.

The daughter was so discouraged, he was so embarrassed that he found an opportunity and glared at his daughter fiercely.

Seeing that her father was unhappy, Zhuang Su's daughter-in-law hurriedly took her children back to the back.

"What are you still doing here, go to the kitchen and see if the wine and food are ready," Jianhe Hou saw that Zhuang Su was standing there and had no intention of leaving, and shouted.

The corners of Zhuang Su's mouth twitched, snickered, agreed, and went to the kitchen.

After living in this home for so many years, he has long been used to it.

The old man is like this, he looks down on the poor and is unwilling to deal with the poor.

But there is no way to take him as a son-in-law.

Because his daughter likes him and this old man feels most sorry for his children and descendants, and his nephews and nieces are his lifeblood.

Although he is very faceless on the surface, he still likes it in his heart.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to stay in this family.

The old man treats him like this when something happens, or when he is in front of someone.

Usually most of the time, he is very kind.

"Then you come this time" Jian Hehou knew that Zhuangzi would not come over for no reason.

It's been so many years, and the two families haven't been in contact, so how could he come suddenly Seeing that he was asked by his in-laws, he happened to talk about the living conditions of the people on the other side of the Mo family's branch altar before, so Zhuangzi did not beat around the bush and directly opened his mouth to borrow grain.

"I'm here to borrow food, borrow silver or gold, and those families really can't get by."

Jian Hehou interrupted: "You are really kind."

"Alas, I'm kind and can't live in other people's homes, I'm me" "Your family's life is not easy either," Jian Hehou sneered.

"No, no, no," Zhuangzi argued: "My family can still live with my son-in-law, and he still has an allowance" "What about your eldest daughter and second daughter's family," Jian Hehou asked directly.

Zhuangzi pulled his face down on the spot, and when he talked about his eldest daughter and second daughter, he felt uncomfortable.

"Their family has begging and begging to take care of them, as well as pensions, and there are not many big problems for the time being."

"What about your other two sons?"

"They didn't go to military service, and their families can survive" Seeing that Zhuangzi's face was ugly, the Marquis of Jianhe did not force Zhuangzi anymore. said: "Okay, I'm about to start collecting taxes on the land of the fiefdom, and when I collect the taxes, I'll lend you three hundred gold, okay?"

When Zhuangzi heard this, his face changed again, and he said, "When I came yesterday, someone called me in the middle of the road.

When I looked back, it turned out to be a small pothole where the wheels had run over the road, and there was a crucian carp struggling there.

I asked it: crucian carp, what are you doing just now, did you call me?

The crucian carp replied, "I am a member of the East China Sea Clan."

You only need to use the water of the ascension to make me live, please give me the water of the ascension I said to it: Okay, then I will go to the south to lobby King Wu and King Yue, and cause the water of the Xijiang River to come and greet you, is it okay?

The crucian carp's face changed and he said angrily: I have lost the environment in which I often live, and I have no place to live.

Right now, I can survive with as much water as I can do.

And you actually said such a thing, when you come back from Wuyue, when you attract the water of the Xijiang River, you don't come here to look for me, you go directly to the dried fish shop to find me." aa2705221:
