But the adults in his family didn't dislike him, and they took the trouble to supervise him to wash his face and hands.

Your Excellency is such a good man!

But my lord also has bad times, and my lord even threw away all his clothes, even the burden skin.

Although the adults bought him more and better-looking clothes, he can still wear those clothes that were thrown away!Even if there are several patches, it can still be worn!It can be worn for another three years.

The sad Erniu missed his thrown away clothes while gnawing on the pig's trotters bought by his parents.What a pity!

Whenever the ship docked, Lin Qiao would go for a stroll, taste the local delicacies, and feel the local customs.Of course, buying some local specialty items is also essential.

Lin Qiao was willing to buy things for herself, and always bought something when she saw something she liked.Of course, he will not forget Brother Zhuzi, Er Niu and Liu Cai.Especially brother Zhuzi, who bought several clothes, shoes and accessories.He even bought a sharp dagger for Brother Zhu from a very famous blacksmith shop.

The dagger was very handsome, with beautiful gems on the hilt.

Seeing that Brother Zhuzi liked it, Lin Qiao spent some more money to have the craftsman engrave the word "Jiang Yong".

Looking at the word "Jiang Yong" on the knife, Lin Qiao remembered what brother Zhuzi said a few days ago, why he chose such a name.

Brother Zhuzi's surname is Deng. His mother died young, and his stepmother treated him very badly. She sent him to a pharmacy as an apprentice when he was only six years old.After the apprenticeship expires, every penny of the wages earned must be handed over.His father is not in good health and is fearful of guilt. He always depends on his stepmother in everything and doesn't care about him.

But he couldn't help being a dutiful son, trying every means to get medicine and money for his father.At the beginning of the conscription, he took the 30 taels of silver that Lin Qiao gave him to go home, but his father coaxed him to go, saying that he was afraid of losing so much money, so he had to hide it and take it out when the recruiter came.

At that time, because of the conscription, those who were not willing to serve their family members in the army had to take over Ding Yinzi, but how could the peasant family have any money?For this reason, people's houses were often stolen in the village, so Brother Zhuzi believed his father's words at that time.

He never thought that on the day when the conscription officer arrived, his father insisted that there was no such thing, saying that he was a pharmacy clerk, and he had handed in his usual wages, so where did he get the 30 taels of silver?

He also said, let him take pity on this family, take pity on his sick father, and go with the official!

Brother Zhuzi just died of this heart. Since he was six years old, he has never eaten Deng's family food or worn Deng's family clothes. His wages for so many years, plus the 30 taels of silver, are enough to pay back his father. Thank you.

Later, on the way to the north, Chu Lingfeng thought his name was not good, so he gave him the word "Yong", saying that he had seen him fight and was very brave.

Brother Zhuzi thought, why not change the surname too!Use his mother's surname "Jiang".Changing one's name, especially one's surname, was not so easy in ancient times, but with an officer like Chu Lingfeng around, it was not that difficult.

When Lin Qiao heard these things, he was so uncomfortable that he was dying. Brother Zhuzi is such a good person, how could he have such a father?Forget about the stepmother, anyway, there are not many good stepmothers, just like Er Niu's stepmother.

Lin Qiao thought, if his wife dies in the future, he will never marry again, and the children will suffer!

Then I thought, bah bah bah, why did his wife die?How can I die?With his supernatural ability, even if it is difficult to give birth, he will keep her.It is better for a child to be taken care of by his mother. A child with a mother is like a treasure, while a child without a mother is like a grass.

Brother Zhuzi took the knife and touched it for a long time before inserting the knife into the scabbard. The scabbard was also beautiful, inlaid with green jade.

He looked up at Lin Qiao, and said after a long time, "Today is my birthday and my mother's memorial day. Earlier, my mother had a very favorite hairpin with a piece of jade inlaid on it. It was her dowry. My mother quickly He died of illness, and he was reluctant to sell it, saying that he would keep it for me to marry a wife in the future. But only a few days after my mother passed away, my father sold the hairpin and used the dowry money to marry my stepmother."

When I first heard Brother Zhuzi say that his birthday was also his mother’s memorial day, Lin Qiao thought that Brother Zhuzi’s mother died of dystocia when she gave birth to him. Now it sounds like it wasn’t true, but his mother passed away on his birthday. , presumably he hates birthdays!

So he quickly said, "I'm sorry, brother, I don't know about this, so don't be angry."

Brother Zhuzi looked at him deeply, "I will never be angry with you, I will only be angry with myself." Being angry is incapable of making you like me.

His eyes made Lin Qiao feel uncomfortable again.But Lin Qiao could also feel his pain.Because of Lin Yu, the most unbearable thing in Lin Qiao's life is that he has nowhere to rely on, no one to support his children, kind people are treated badly, and strong people are weak in their hearts.

Brother Zhuzi is such a good person!How strong!Meeting such a father and stepmother, not only is there no psychopath, but also treats the world with a strong and optimistic attitude.If you are a modern person, if you encounter such a thing, you may have gone to the newspaper office long ago.

Lin Qiao couldn't hold back for a moment, reached out to hold Brother Zhu's hand, looked up at him silently.

Brother Zhuzi was overwhelmed by his actions for a while, and frustrated and disappointed for a while. In short, the expression on his face changed almost instantaneously.

Finally, as if he mustered up his courage, he said, "Xiaobai, I like you, I want to..."

"Brother, don't say it." Lin Qiao quickly interrupted him.

Brother Zhuzi was interrupted, and his heart sank uncontrollably.I shouldn't have hoped for a long time ago. How could someone as good as Xiaobai accept him?Don't dream anymore, it's still the same as what you thought before, just want to be able to guard him, and you can be a slave or a servant.

Seeing the despair on Brother Zhuzi's face, Lin Qiao was so distressed that he said impulsively, "Brother, we... we... brother, can you... wait, wait, okay?"

Wait for me to think again, and wait for you to think again.

You just encountered a kindness when you were young, and you were moved by it, thinking that it was liking.

You just stayed in the military camp without women for a long time, and when you saw a good-looking guy with physical desire, you thought it was liking.

Perhaps, when you return to Qingcheng and meet a beautiful and kind woman, you will naturally return to the right path.

Shall we wait a little longer?

The four of them stopped, shopped, and bought like this. When they arrived in Chizhou, Lin Qiao bought too many goods. His mule cart couldn't fit in three carriages, so he had to buy two more mule carts.

Maybe it was because the boat was too bumpy and the people were too hard, or maybe it was because they were finally getting home and they relaxed. Gu Ping and the three fell ill the day before the boat arrived at Qingyang, the capital of Chizhou.

After getting off the boat, Lin Qiao found a better inn, let the three of them rest first, and then invited a doctor to see a doctor and prescribe medicine.

He could use his powers to help them recover quickly, but thinking that this is not a serious illness, he should not abuse the powers.Anyway, he has to stay in Qingyang for a few days, and he still has goods to deal with!

Lin Qiao took a few goods and went door to door looking for those big trading houses to sell them.He looks good, dresses well, and has developed an aura in the military camp.Then there is the "guard with a knife" brother Zhuzi standing aside.

None of those shopkeepers dared to neglect him.Lin Qiao had a good eye, so he picked good things at the beginning. These were not uncommon in the north, but they were rare in the south.

For example, this whole piece of fox fur without any blemishes, although the south of the Yangtze River is not as cold as the north, it still snows in winter.Rich people make a fox fur and a fox fur collar, which is quite a face.

There is also this thumb-thick northern sand ginseng. Although it is not as good as a century-old or a thousand-year-old ginseng, it is not much worse than ginseng in curing diseases and maintaining health, and the price is cheap!

As well as the golden jujube, which is sweet and nutritious, the skin is thin and tough, and it can be stored for a long time. Even in the humid south, it will not get moldy after a few months. It is most suitable for women to eat.

In modern times, Lin Qiao is not good at communication, and he has no guts to do sales. He thinks that sales must be thick-skinned and black-hearted.

But now, he has stayed in the battlefield, killed Khitan people, and met a few important figures. Times have changed, and he is no longer the same Lin Qiao as before.

Besides, these things of his are really good, even if he wants to be a businessman, he has to be a businessman with a conscience.

However, he didn't intend to really do business, he just resold some things along the way to earn travel expenses.

In a few days, the six carts were almost sold out, and he planned to keep the rest and give some to the county magistrate Sun, county lieutenant, Zhu Bo and Hu Da.

If he wants to live well in Anyang County, he has to establish good relations with these people. Although he is also a high-ranking officer now, it is always right to establish good relations with local snakes!

This trip of buying and selling, excluding various costs and expenses, Lin Qiao earned almost 2000 taels, most of which were the fur and northern sand ginseng.

This money is also very easy to earn. You must know that even if the farmers are in a good year, if they save food and money, they can save two taels of silver throughout the year, which is a good family.

However, running a business is not so easy to do, and there are various checkpoints along the way to deal with filial piety.This is still good, if you encounter water bandits or bandits, the goods will be robbed at least, and people and money will be lost at worst.

It was also convenient for Lin Qiao and the others to meet soldiers who had retired and returned to their hometowns. They had official support along the way, so no one dared to snatch them.

Brother Zhuzi listened to Lin Qiao's words and bought some things. After selling them, he also made some money.

However, he doesn't care about these at all, he only has Xiaobai in his heart, and if Xiaobai is happy, he is happy.

Xiaobai is happy when he makes money, and he is happier than when he makes money.

Xiaobai asked him to wait a little longer, so he would wait for as long as he wanted, as long as he could stay by Xiaobai's side.

Lin Qiao also asked Er Niu to stock up on goods, and even said to lend him the money.But the cow clutched his severance money, but was unwilling.

He also said, "I don't want to get rich, I just want to follow the adults, have land to grow, a house to live in, clothes to wear, and meat to eat once a year, and I'm satisfied.

Along the way, following the adults, eating delicious food, seeing beautiful scenery, and wearing such beautiful clothes, I am already satisfied.

When I get old, I can also tell my grandson where I have been, what I have seen, and what I have eaten, and that is enough.

My brother said that people will become bad when they have money. I don't want to become a bad person. "
