farm house son-in-law

Zhang Shengxiang couldn't help laughing when he saw that Lu and Chen were so deceitful, and felt that although he almost made a mistake, it could still be redeemed!

"It's just that these two poor people don't know how much silver they are going to lose." Zhang Shengxiang thought to himself, and smiled at He Tongxin.

He Tongxin knew that Zhang Shengxiang was calculating since he was a child, and felt that others were not as smart as him.

"It's time for you to bump into Brother Shen and learn a lesson." He Tongxin thought with some relief.

On one side, uncle and nephew looked at each other, while on the other side Lu Chen held a box and said with a smile, "That's it... Ouch!"

Just as Lu Chen was talking, he kicked the door sill, and the box in his hand flew out.

Zhang Shengxiang hurriedly rushed over to grab the box, but he didn't expect the box to fall into his arms, and a handful of wood ash flew up, making Zhang Shengxiang's face covered.

He Tongxin pursed his lips, he expected that Lu Chen would play tricks, but he didn't expect it to be like this.

"Uncle? This..." Zhang Shengxiang opened the box and saw a pile of ashes, and looked at Lu Chen in doubt and disbelief.

"Wooden doll! I thought this thing is too scary, and it even gave your uncle a dream. I was afraid that they would take advantage of your uncle's belly to bully your cousin in the future, so I set it on fire." Lu Chen raised his eyebrows and smiled. said.

"Burn...?" Zhang Shengxiang looked at the ashes in the box, he stood up slowly and said with a smile in his eyes, "Uncle, don't lie to me, you bought it for 12 taels of silver, you would be willing to burn it burnt?"

"Why not? I can buy a bunch of useless broken dolls for 12 taels, so why don't I just set them on fire?" Lu Chen also said with a provocative smile in his eyes.

Zhang Shengxiang was annoyed, but he still slowly wiped off the ashes on his face, and said with a hint of ruthlessness in his eyes, "Uncle, please don't be funny, quickly take out those dolls and give them to your nephew, maybe you can get some A few coins."

"How much?" Lu Chen looked at Zhang Shengxiang and asked.

When Zhang Shengxiang heard it, it was true that Lu Chen deliberately made fun of him, but as long as he made sure that the wooden doll was still there, it would be fine.

"I'll give you 15 taels." Zhang Shengxiang said proudly.

"One?" Lu Chen said with a smile.

"All! One 15 taels, are you crazy!" Zhang Shengxiang roared angrily no longer.

"Sure, I'll give you all the ashes on the ground, 15 taels." Lu Chen stretched out his hand as he said.

Zhang Shengxiang looked at Lu Chen angrily, then sneered and said, "Uncle is planning not to show it?"

"I told you it was burned." Lu Chen said calmly.

Zhang Shengxiang flicked his sleeves and said, "Don't take me for a fool, I'll give you another three taels, no more."

Lu Chen thought for a while, looked at Zhang Shengxiang and said, "You are the one who thinks I'm a fool, right? You added six taels to me for a while, and if I'm stupid, I'll give it to you?"

"You..." Zhang Shengxiang paused, and said with a smile, "To be honest, the price of the wooden doll has indeed increased. My father-in-law blamed me. I have to buy it back with my own money. 18 taels is already over the top." , Uncle, tell me how much a wooden doll can rise at will, can't you?!"

Lu Chen listened for a while and said, "Then let me tell you the truth, I really burned the doll, there's no way anyone can make your uncle have a nightmare."

"Uncle means that he is unwilling to take it out no matter what, right?" Zhang Shengxiang looked at Lu Chen angrily and said.

"You don't believe me when I tell you, there's nothing you can do about it." Lu Chen said recklessly.

"Okay, let's keep uncle. I originally wanted to leave a way for uncle to survive. Then don't blame my nephew for being ruthless!" Zhang Shengxiang said coldly.

"What do you mean?" He Tongxin looked at Zhang Shengxiang angrily and asked.

Zhang Shengxiang looked at He Tongxin and the two with contempt and said, "Uncle, maybe you don't know yet? Just taking the plaque doesn't necessarily mean it's yours. You have to be lucky to hang the plaque."

"What do you want to do? Just say it." Lu Chen looked at Zhang Shengxiang calmly and asked.

Zhang Shengxiang saw that the faces of the two of them had changed, so he breathed a sigh of relief and sat down and said, "Uncle, I don't know, the merchant's sign here is under the care of the Gu family in the county. It is still very easy to erase the name of a brand."

After hearing this, He Tongxin hurriedly looked at Lu Chen.

"Are you asking for it?" Lu Chen also sat down, looked at Zhang Shengxiang and asked.

"I don't want to either, but uncle, who made you so unreasonable." Zhang Shengxiang said with a sneer.

"I understand what you mean." Lu Chen raised his hand and said, "Concentric."

"Hmm..." He Tongxin replied in a muffled voice, thinking that he would carry out the broken doll for Zhang Shengxiang like this, Zhang Shengxiang didn't necessarily want to do anything evil!

Unexpectedly, Lu Chen followed up and said, "Beat this little bastard to death!"

"???" He Tongxin and Zhang Shengxiang looked at each other, and He Tongxin reacted faster and rushed over to grab Zhang Shengxiang's collar.

"What...how?" He Tongxin asked nervously and flusteredly.

"Wait... a minute! Are you crazy?! You don't want a brand anymore!! Dare to hit me..." Before Zhang Shengxiang finished speaking, Lu Chen rushed over and slapped Zhang Shengxiang on the face.

"Puppy! Let you bark for a while, do you really think you can bite?!" Lu Chen's eyes were fierce, and his voice raised.

Before Zhang Shengxiang could say anything, he was thrown out the door by He Tongxin.

"Ouch!" Zhang Shengxiang lay on the ground and opened his mouth to scold, but he saw Mrs. Ji come out of the kitchen.

"Grandma, save me! Uncle and the others are crazy!" Zhang Shengxiang ran towards Ji Shi as he said that, but a stone hit him like chasing the wind from behind, and Zhang Shengxiang fell to his knees on the ground with a thud, and screamed again.

"What's the matter, what's the matter, what is this?" Ji cried out in a panic.

"Mother, Shengxiang is here to grab our brand name!" He Tongxin didn't want to tell Ji Shi any more, so he strode over and threw Zhang Shengxiang out of the door.

"Third Young Master!" Tong Gui hurriedly ran out of the cattle pen after seeing this, and went to look for Zhang Shengxiang.

Zhang Shengxiang was so angry that he was going crazy. When he saw Lu Chen coming out of the door leisurely, he gritted his teeth and said, "Hmph! If I hadn't told you, you would have known that it was worth something?"

"Then I have to thank you." Lu Chen looked sideways at Zhang Shengxiang and said.

"Don't be so arrogant, do you think you have the life to sell it? By the way, you can't hang up the sign, just wait!" Zhang Shengxiang climbed into the carriage and left after speaking.

"Bah!" Lu Chen cursed again, and when he entered the yard, he saw Ji's frightened and helpless look at him and said, "Mother, don't worry, I have my own way."

Ji's lips moved, and seeing Father He come out of the house, he hurriedly lowered his head and entered the kitchen.

After entering the kitchen, Ji closed the door, took a breath, and took out an insole.The insoles were painted with little people, and they started to pierce them with a needle, muttering, "The first prick makes you lose your courage, and the second prick makes you respectful..."

"What's going on?" Father He also frowned and asked.

He also listened carefully in the back room, but he was still a little confused.

Lu Chen smiled, and only said that Zhang Shengxiang deliberately provoked himself and bought a bunch of useless broken dolls, but the price of the dolls unexpectedly increased. superior.

"This... this bastard!" Father He cursed.

"It's just that if it's as he said, what should we do if we can't hang up the sign?" He Tongxin said anxiously in a low voice.

"Don't panic!" Lu Chen was not in a hurry, he said, "If this matter is really so easy, he will stay with us for so long, and is he willing to pay us?"

"That's right, Sheng Xiang has been a stingy guy since he was a child, and it's hard for him to spend an extra copper coin." Father He agreed.

"If that's the case, then there's no need to be afraid." Lu Chen thought for a while and said, "I'll go around the county in the past two days to see how the sign is hanging this year."

He Tongxin knew that Lu Chen was lying to Father He, and he still felt a little guilty towards his father.

"Well, let's take a look first. As for those wooden dolls, I think if they can be sold earlier, they can be sold earlier." Father He thought for a while and said, "It's also a fortune, I guess it can be sold for at least 20 taels Damn, you two are lucky too!"

"Hey, look, I knew that Dad didn't want to give it to that kid either." Lu Chen gave Tongxin a relaxed look.

He Tongxin smiled, thinking about what it would be like if his father found out that there was a treasure hidden in the wooden doll.

"Of course I can't give it to you. It's fine if that kid accidentally sells it to the wrong one. Now I see that he's an enemy! What are you going to do to him!" Father He said with a serious expression on his face.

"Then listen to Dad. We went to the county to find out. If we can sell the doll, we will sell it. When we come back, we will give Dad a few taels of money." Lu Chen said with a bright smile.

He Tongxin nodded with a smile, and said, "By the way, I also have money to give to Dad!"

He Tongxin touched a tael of silver and gave it to Father He.

"What's the matter again? It's not worth taking a tael of silver for nothing?" Old He asked, looking at the two in surprise.

"This one was earned by Tongxin himself, so you can take it." Lu Chen patted He Tongxin and said.

He Tongxin was still a little shy. Father He only found out after asking about it that his son had killed a wild boar and sold it for five and a half taels of silver!

"What a boy! You are so brave!" Father He excitedly patted He Tongxin and praised him.

He Tongxin bowed his head with a hot face and did not speak.

Seeing He Tongxin like this, Lu Chen touched another tael of silver with a smile and said, "Father, please praise Tongxin again, and I will give you another tael of silver."

"Bastard! You're playing with your father!" Father He laughed and cursed, looked at He Tongxin again, and sighed in his heart, "Perhaps I should have raised you as my son since childhood, I'm afraid it will be even more powerful now!"

He Tongxin's eyes were red, and he stretched out his hand to hook Lu Chen.

"Okay, the ability will only get better and better in the future, so save your good words for later." Lu Chen explained the complicated atmosphere with a smile.

The three of them were chatting and joking when there was a door call from outside.
