Chapter 859
When Carpenter Xu heard this, he jumped up like a rabbit whose butt was scalded, and replied loudly: "Go on, why not continue, I will definitely make a speeding car that flies over the river. Not only that, but I also want to make a car in the future. Even better, the speeding car can fly over buildings and across Taihu Lake!"

Sure enough, Carpenter Xu has a heart that never gives up. After suffering so many setbacks, he still has a higher goal!From the eyes of the onlookers, they all sighed, this idiot Xu is crazy and hopeless.

However, in the eyes of Emperor Chongzhen, he was very appreciative. Seeing that his whole body was soaked, he said to him: "Go home and change your clothes first, and drink some ginger tea or something to drive away the cold, so as not to catch a cold."

When Carpenter Xu heard this, he turned his head to look at the speeding car that had already been scooped up. He obviously didn't listen to Emperor Chongzhen's words, and his heart was on the speeding car.Seeing this, Emperor Chongzhen said to the people around him: "Whoever helps to send Carpenter Xu's speeding car back to his home will be rewarded with five taels of silver!"

Upon hearing this, young people who were watching immediately raised their hands.

Seeing this, Carpenter Xu finally showed embarrassment on his face. Before he could say anything, he heard Emperor Chongzhen say, "Come on, take Carpenter Xu back to his house on horseback, don't get cold!"

Immediately, a plain-clothed Jinyi guard drove forward, no matter whether Carpenter Xu agreed or not, and he didn't care that Carpenter Xu was soaked, he stretched out his hand and pulled Carpenter Xu onto the horse's back.Two big men, riding a horse together.

Seeing Emperor Chongzhen and his party riding away on horseback, the young man holding five banknotes in his hand couldn't help admiring: "I don't know how lucky this idiot Xu is, to be able to fall into the eyes of the nobles. It's gone!"

As for banknotes, the Jiangnan area accepts them very quickly. After all, it is too convenient, and there is a credit guarantee that they can be exchanged back to real silver at any time. Therefore, this banknote is still very popular. It is not related to people. There are no banknotes available in their hands. After all, the issuance of banknotes The amount is not enough for everyone to use.In other words, Daming is still at the time when real currency and banknotes are mixed.

On a street in Medu, Wu County, below Suzhou, a woman walked with two and a half children carrying hoes and baskets, as if heading for a house here.Judging by their appearance, they should have returned from the field.

When someone met them on the road, they greeted them slightly: "The Xu family, have you gone to Sangtian?"

"Yeah, the growth is not bad, weeding and pruning, you have to do it." The woman replied with a little tiredness, "This year depends on this!"

The passerby heard this and asked again: "Where is your man, why are you bringing two children to do this job?"

When the woman heard this, she lowered her head and did not answer.

Just at this moment, the door next door was opened, and a woman heard it when she went out, and said with a sneer, "Her man, he is flying into the sky! That's a big deal, how can he do this farmer's job?"

"What, Carpenter Xu hasn't given up on his idle job?" Hearing this, passers-by were really surprised, "It's been many years, did you really let him do it?"

"Hehe, let's dream!" The woman leaned against the door when she heard that, watched Mrs. Xu walk to her door, took out the key to open the door, and laughed, "No, I'm flying again today. But I bet, he If the flying car can fly, I will walk around when I see it in the future!"

"Mrs. Wu, you are not allowed to speak of my father like that!" The older child immediately glared at the woman and shouted loudly.

When Mrs. Wu heard this, she stood up straight, put her hands on her hips, and yelled loudly: "The little brat is still not convinced, your useless father likes to do nothing, and he is well-known in this area, so I don't allow my mother to say that." ? Your father is a prodigal son, and your family will starve to death sooner or later!"

Speaking of this, she even raised her head and added: "Just based on your father's virtue, if my mother leaves her words here, she will be a poor ghost until she dies, abandoned by others, and worthless for the rest of her life!"

"Fart, I don't know how many times my father's craftsmanship is better than your family's, your family is worthless..."

Before he finished speaking, his mother slapped his head and interrupted him.The little boy looked up, but saw tears in his mother's eyes, turned around and lowered his head to go in, and he knew that Mrs. Wu had hit his mother again.

He understood that his mother was hurt by his father's demonic obstacles.What kind of flying car is that, and I will go to test flight again today.However, no matter whether it is my mother or myself, I actually think that it is impossible to succeed. After all, I have made sure that I can succeed in advance, but every time it is a failure, and I have experienced it countless times.

Thinking of this, he also hated his father for not living up to expectations and making the family like this.But being a son is to protect both father and mother. Therefore, he was very annoyed at Mrs. Wu, and when he was about to turn his head to scold, he suddenly heard his younger brother's surprise cry: "Father!"

When he heard it, he turned his head to look, but was stunned for a while.

I saw a group of people coming on tall horses, and his father was sitting on one of the horses, but he was a little embarrassed, as if his whole body was wet.

Mrs. Wu was also stunned. Looking at these people, they must be either rich or noble.But what happened to Xu Duzi, he got mixed up with these people?

As for Xu Carpenter's flying car, there were indeed some wealthy people who were interested in it before, but after seeing Xu Carpenter's failed test flights several times, they were no longer interested, thinking that he was not doing his job properly.

Seeing his two sons at the door, Carpenter Xu hurriedly got off his horse and shouted loudly: "Mother, there is a distinguished guest. If there is anything delicious at home, hurry up and serve it!"

While talking, her mother-in-law appeared at the door when she heard the sound, and saw that there were indeed distinguished guests, all of them were tall horses, and the price of a horse alone was incredible.Immediately, she blushed and said in a low voice, "What's delicious at home?"

Hearing this, Carpenter Xu froze there as if struck by lightning.

When Emperor Chongzhen saw this scene and looked at their clothes, he couldn't help shaking his head and sighing. It could be seen that the life of Carpenter Xu's family was really poor.

After he gave an order in a low voice, a plainclothes guard in Jinyi rode away, while Emperor Chongzhen got off his horse, walked over with a smile and said, "It's okay, just sit down as you like. But Xu Carpenter and my two subordinates, both Wet all over, need to change clothes, drink some ginger soup to drive away the cold."

When the others saw the emperor dismounting, they didn't dare to be negligent, and immediately dismounted. Among them, several plainclothes guards entered Xu's house first, and went in to see the situation.

The people around were stunned, and they didn't come back to their senses until Emperor Chongzhen and his party entered the courtyard of Xu's house. Among them, the older child snorted heavily at Mrs. Wu: "What are you looking at, this is my father friend!"

When Emperor Chongzhen entered the house, he didn't care about the owner, so he walked around and checked it. Sure enough, it was almost to the point where there was no grain of rice in the tank and the social fire could not be raised.
