MTL - Almighty Dad-Chapter 139 Landlord Dad's Trouble 26

After Han Ze dealt with the matter, he stood outside the study and took a look inside. He saw that all the sisters were concentrating on their studies, but Han Xiaodong's face was a little unnatural, as if he was ashamed. He looked at Han Shubo unexpectedly. Han Shubo winked at him.

Han Ze raised his hand, motioning for him to come out and speak.

Han Shubo came out, and the father and son went to sit under the gazebo in the garden. Han Ze asked: "In the past, I was taught by my husband, but now I teach others how do you feel?"

"not bad."

Han Shubo raised his head and said with a smile: "They don't need to take scientific exams, and they have already finished the Four Books. There is no need to rush to learn other knowledge. Let them read some essays and travel notes first, so as to gain a lot of knowledge."

Han Ze said, "Well, not bad. I'm not like your sister-in-law who likes to read some drama stories and lose her temper."

Han Shubo nodded, and said quite agreeingly: "Sister-in-law is reading "The Precepts for Women". After reading it, I plan to let her read "The Classic of Filial Piety for Women" and "Rules for Women" to change her character."

The corners of Han Ze's mouth twitched slightly, and after a while he said, "If after reading this, she still doesn't change her temper?"

Know that some people can be taught, and some people are difficult to teach.

Han Shubo said in a deep voice: "If she can't change her temper, we don't need to worry about this kind of person, just follow her, and she will bear what happens in the future."

Han Ze didn't say anything. Han Shubo knew that his father agreed with his decision, and he was a little happy. He is now a scholar. Even if he is still young, his father will consider his opinion when he expresses his opinion on family matters. One of the benefits of body.

After a while, Han Ze looked at Han Shubo and said, "Scholars can be exempted from taxes on 80 mu of land. In the future, they can be exempted from taxes on 300 mu of land if they win the Juren. I plan to buy 500 mu of land and put it under your name. What do you think of it as your private property in the future?"

How much money do you get for five hundred acres of land?

Han Shubo was stunned for a while, and said, "Father, don't you need it?"

He studied the imperial examinations, used all the top-grade pens, inks, papers and inkstones, and spent countless silver taels every year, so he didn't have the nerve to buy private property.

Han Ze said, "After a while, these flowers will be sold. I'll go to the county to see if I can buy a smaller Zhuangzi."

Han Shubo frowned: "Aren't there two Zhuangzi in our county?"

Han Ze said: "I can't give you those two Zhuangzi. Buy a smaller Zhuangzi as a reward for your passing the examination."

Seeing his father's insistence, Han Shubo didn't say any more. He went back to the study and saw that they were still immersed in the book. He sat on the desk, took out a book bought in the county, and read it.

An hour later, Han Shubo asked, "Have you finished reading?"

Sister Han Shuxin shook her head, and Han Shubo looked at Han Xiaodong: "Sister-in-law, what about you?"

Han Xiaodong nodded. The Commandments for Women are not long, but she has finished reading them.

Not surprisingly, Han Shubo asked, "Do you know what it means?"

Han Xiaodong stammered, "I know roughly."

Han Shubo asked again: "What do you think after reading it?"

Han Xiaodong was a little embarrassed, and still a little angry in his heart. The little nephew was too disrespectful to her, and he didn't give her the slightest prestige of the elders. How could the nieces respect her in the future? She squeezed the book paper tightly, pursed her lips, and said nothing.

Han Shubo didn't take it seriously, and took out two more books and put them in front of her: "Since you don't have any ideas, then read these two books as well. After reading these two books, if you still don't have any ideas, then read them." Memorize it, think about it in the future, and think about it, you will have scruples."

Han Xiaodong looked at the first book, female? She frowned, having a bad premonition in her heart, and then read the next book, The Book of Filial Piety?

She looked at Han Shubo suddenly: "Shubo, what do you mean? I'm here to learn how to read from you, not to read these messy books."

Who are you insulting? If you want to talk about being unfilial, this brat is also being unfilial. She is his sister-in-law, and it is simply unfilial to ask her to learn the precepts of women and the scriptures of filial piety.

Han Shubo frowned: "Sister-in-law thinks 'Nv Ze' and 'Book of Filial Piety' are messy books?"

Han Xiaodong didn't say anything, Han Shubo knew what was going on in his heart at a glance.

The second girl, Han Shuqing, said next to her, "Shubo, can I read the Sutra of Filial Piety?"

Han Xiaodong raised his head to look at Han Shuqing, Han Shuqing raised a bright smile and said, "Father said, girls in aristocratic gentry have to memorize the female commandments since they were young. We are peasant girls, and our family is relatively well-off. Women need to memorize what they have learned, even if they don't memorize it by heart, they should read it aloud."

Han Xiaodong's cheeks became hot, she knew that Shu Qing's words were true, but in this situation, Shubo asked her to read these books, but the few nieces didn't have to read them, it seemed that they had ulterior motives, as if they were teaching her to say that she had no rules , or even unfilial, so it is necessary to read these books.

The sisters of Han Shuxin listened to Han Shuqing's words and thought carefully. Although their family is a peasant household, they are different from ordinary peasant households.

Father didn't let them learn the Commandments for Women, probably because he didn't think they shouldn't learn them, but they haven't learned them yet. Since the daughters of noble families need to memorize the Rules for Women, if they don't know how to read, they will Forget it, since you have read the book and can read, but you don't know how to recite the women's commandments when asked by others, wouldn't it make people doubt your upbringing?

Han Shubo didn't expect that his sisters were scrambling to learn what my sister-in-law didn't want to learn. He was a little dazed for a while, and Han Ze came in from the outside and asked gently, "What's wrong?"

Han Shubo smiled wryly: "Sisters, if you want to learn from women..."

Han Ze paused, picked up the female commandment in front of Han Xiaodong, looked at it, and said, "You can learn it."

Han Shubo looked at him in surprise. He still knew his father. He might not like the woman who obeyed the three virtues and strictly followed the rules of women, so why did he let his sisters learn this?

Han Ze thought for a while and said: "I want you to learn the rules of the female commandment, not to let you follow the above in every word and deed, but to let you understand them, master them, and make them your tools for your use. .”

The sisters opened their mouths in surprise and stared blankly at Dad, but Han Shubo seemed to realize something.

Han Ze said again: "You are girls, you don't need to take the imperial examination, you can read and write to learn, so that you can know how to survive better, make your own judgments, and don't follow others..."

Among the sisters, only Han Shuqing understood what her father meant, and the others seemed to understand. Han Xiaodong felt that he also understood the meaning of the elder brother, and said proudly: "The meaning of the elder brother, this girl has mastered it. When the timing coincides, Can we use them to deal with those who provoke us, saying that they are uneducated?"

Han Ze: "..."

I have to say that it is not without reason that I also studied and studied with him, but this younger sister was taught crookedly. This younger sister was born with rebellion.

Seeing that Han Ze was silent, Han Xiaodong said proudly, "Brother, am I right?"

Han Ze looked at her rather speechlessly, and said, "Okay, as long as you think it's right."

Han Xiaodong looked at the few books in her hands, and she no longer felt disgusted. Thinking of the embarrassment when the book fair let her read this book, she could imagine how to deal with those unreasonable people after she got married in the future, as if she had found a treasure Said: "Brother, give me the books in your hand, I will go back and memorize them, and then I will be silent."

Han Ze gave her the book, looked at Han Shuqing, and asked, "What does Shu Qing think?"

Han Shuqing thought for a while, although she hadn't read the Rules for Women's Commandments, she still knew roughly what was written in them, and she thought about it and said, "Since this women's commandments are a must-learn thing for women from aristocratic families, if you want to come to those When a woman socializes abroad, she will act according to her every word and deed. In the eyes of those nobles, this is a manifestation of a woman's upbringing and etiquette, and it is the key to measure a woman..."

Having said that, she paused and looked at her father in embarrassment.

Han Ze encouraged: "Go ahead!"

Han Shuqing blushed slightly, and said: "Father said that through reading and writing, we can learn to survive, have our own views on things, and don't follow what others say, and what the rich and powerful have to learn, we can't fight against the rich and powerful, and the female commandment is , I think we should learn and keep that content in mind. As for whether we should act according to the above, it depends on where we are.”

Han Ze nodded, "Yes, I have my own opinion."

Han Shuqing smiled slightly, while Han Xiaodong was very embarrassed. Compared with Shu Qing, her statement was obviously inferior and seemed extremely utilitarian. She was a little ashamed and argued, "There is a book of filial piety here. Don't tell me you have to do filial piety?" Measure to measure?"

Han Ze frowned, looking a little displeased.

Han Xiaodong looked at them stubbornly.

Han Shuqing said ignorantly: "Filial piety is in my heart, why do I still need to read and study?"

Han Ze smiled.

Han Shubo also laughed.

Han Xiaodong froze.

Han Shuqing said again: "There's no need to measure. Being filial to the elders comes from the heart. If you want to be filial in your heart, you should be filial. If you are not filial, of course you will think too much."

Han Xiaodong felt that she was humiliating herself by studying here.

In fact, she was thinking too much. She wanted to find a man she liked. It was actually nothing. They were farmers, and there were not so many rules. But she shouldn't disobey her parents for the sake of a man, even before she was married, she should back him up, which made them unhappy.

Back in the room, she lay on the bed and began to cry.

Wang Lanhua noticed her movement, frowned, went to her room, and asked angrily, "Why are you crying?"

Han Xiaodong cried to himself and ignored her, but when he heard her questioning, he cried louder and louder.

After Qian Hong's incident, Wang Lanhua was very impatient with Han Xiaodong's daughter, and was annoyed by her crying a few times, and said loudly, "Why are you crying?"

Han Xiaodong was startled, his crying stopped, and Wang Lanhua yelled again: "Did you say so?"

Only now did Han Xiaodong take out his handkerchief to wipe away his tears indiscriminately, his voice was stumbling and weeping: "Shu, Shubo, Shuqing and Big Brother, he, they all bully me."

Wang Lanhua was speechless, what should have happened to her.

Han Xiaodong choked and said, "I won't study with them anymore."

But Wang Lanhua said: "Those children are sensible, and they won't bully you for no reason."

Han Xiaodong looked at Wang Lanhua angrily: "Mother, I am your daughter, why don't you believe me?"

"Then tell me how they bullied you? You, an aunt, have the nerve to say so."

Wang Lanhua thought in her heart, you are my daughter, and the Shubo brothers and sisters are my grandchildren. Although they are not my own, they are better than my own.

Han Xiaodong sniffed: "Han Shubo asked me to read the Women's Commandments and Women's Filial Piety Classic, and also said that I am not filial..."

Wang Lanhua smiled and said: "The book expo is right, you are not filial, you should read those books, although I don't know what the book is about, but hearing the name, it should be the book you should read."

Han Xiaodong's eyes were red, Shubo is a nephew, she can worry about his nephew's words, but she has to listen to her mother's words, after all her mother will not harm her, "Mother, do you really think I should read those books? You Do you really think I'm that bad?"

Wang Lanhua was angry and distressed, sighed and said: "Xiaodong, you are eighteen years old, and the marriage has not yet been settled. In the past two years, those who proposed marriage almost broke through the threshold of our family, but in the past two years, anyone who proposed a marriage would not be able to get married. It was for Shu Xin and Shu Qing, if you continue to be picky, Shu Xin and Shu Qing are married, but you haven't married yet."

Han Xiaodong pursed her lips, doesn't she want to marry? Isn't it that those who come to propose marriage are all crooked people, and marrying those people, isn't it shabby? When my sister and brother-in-law got married, the brother-in-law was a scholar, even if he wasn't a scholar, the brother-in-law was handsome and handsome. If she didn't marry well, she would feel ashamed if she had a sister-in-law.

Wang Lanhua's mouth froze anxiously, and she said angrily: "If you continue like this, your father and I will marry you, and you won't be able to pick and choose." At this point, she nodded her head hard Son, "You really want to **** me off, you."

Han Xiaodong's eyes were red.

Wang Lanhua asked in a deep voice, "What kind of family do you want to find? Are you telling me?"

Han Xiaodong pursed his lips and whispered, "At least, at least it can't be worse than brother-in-law's house."

Wang Lanhua frowned, and said angrily: "Your brother-in-law is a son-in-law, and there are not many son-in-laws in our ten miles and eight villages, and they are all married. Where can I find such a suitable husband's family for you?"

Han Xiaodong lowered his head: "You can also be a scholar, my brother-in-law was also a scholar at that time."

Wang Lanhua could only say: "Your brother has to come forward in this matter."

Han Xiaodong felt a little uncomfortable, her brother was annoying her to death, and he didn't know if he was willing to worry about her affairs.

If Wang Lanhua hadn't come forward, Han Ze really wouldn't have taken care of Han Xiaodong's affairs, but he had to look at the old man's face as well as Wang Lanhua's face. in a hurry.

From some people he had known in recent years, he picked a young man who he thought was suitable for Han Xiaodong, and said: "This family is in the county seat, and the family is in business. The person I told Xiaodong is the second son of the family. You can't inherit the family business, but you can get a lot of family property, and you will be rich in the future, and you will have no worries about food and drink. You talk to Xiaodong, and if you agree, let them see each other."

Wang Lanhua thought it was good, although the man did not have any fame, but his family was in business, and he did not have to worry about food and drink, and when Xiaodong married, life would not be hard. She smiled and said, "I talked about her."

Han Ze nodded, noncommittal.

Under Wang Lanhua's persuasion, Han Xiaodong heard that the other party had no fame. Although he was still dissatisfied, he was willing to give it a try.

After Han Ze had a meeting with the father, he decided on a date to meet him, and took Han Maode, Liu Chrysanthemum, Han Xiaodong to the county town. After the meeting, Han Xiaodong's dissatisfaction disappeared, after all, the other person's appearance was indeed impeccable. , Even her brother-in-law can't compare, and besides, she is married to the county seat, she is a peasant girl, married to the county seat, it is considered a high marriage, she has nothing to wrong.

Han Ze: "..."

Han Ze was not surprised at all. Although the young man has no fame, but he has sword eyebrows and star eyes, he is handsome and without waves, his appearance is a few miles away from Qian Hong, and he is frank and forthright. Accident. On the contrary, he felt wronged by the young man's match with Han Xiaodong.

Han Xiaodong's marriage is considered settled, since he is the matchmaker, Han Ze will not be stingy with the dowry, otherwise, instead of punishing Han Xiaodong, he would offend the man. He would not do such a thing.

As for the original promise to buy a yard for Han Xiaodong in the town, it is not suitable for her to marry to the county seat now. He thought about it, and he wanted to buy a house for Shubo anyway, so he bought a house for Han Xiaodong in the county seat. The small yard cost five hundred taels of silver. As for the field, I didn't buy it for her. Instead, I bought a shop for her. Anyway, the man's family is doing business, so there is no need to worry that buying a shop is useless.

After receiving the title deed handed over by his brother, Han Xiaodong cried and said with red eyes, "Brother, I'm sorry. I was wrong."

"The dowry is not for you, but for your father and mother. I can't bear their worries."

Han Ze didn't care about her apology. Seeing her embarrassment, he said, "It's good if you really feel that you are wrong. It's not in vain for Shubo to think."

He didn't care if Han Xiaodong knew he was wrong. But Shubo really treats Xiaodong as a family member. Although he is thinking about teaching Han Xiaodong, whether it is his sister-in-law or for her own good, I hope she can change her ways. If Han Xiaodong harbors resentment, Shubo's thoughts will be in vain up.

Han Xiaodong was a little embarrassed, but he still said: "I really felt embarrassed and ashamed at the time, and even wanted to beat up that kid, but since I read the book of filial piety, I think what the kid said is right. It is indeed unfilial and a little frivolous, if you continue to behave like before, even if you marry in the county, life will not be easy."

Han Ze hummed, and looked at her quite unexpectedly. He was relieved to see that she really repented, at least Shubo's thoughts were not wasted.

Han Xiaodong said seriously: "I will change it."

Han Ze nodded, whether to change or not is not just talk, he will see later.

...

Not long after Han Xiaodong got married, Han Shubo was about to go to the county government school to study.

Although the little grandson is a scholar, he has only just turned ten years old. How could Han Maode feel at ease, and said to Han Ze, "I want to accompany Shubo to study in the county."

Han Ze didn't refuse, just said: "Okay, the county has a courtyard, and there are servants in the courtyard, so go if you want."

Wang Lanhua said beside him, "What about me?"

Han Maode waved his hand: "Xiaodong just came back after she got married. Xiaochun also bought a yard in the county town. The two daughters are both in the county town. You should go to the county town too. You can also visit them."

Wang Lanhua looked at Han Ze.

Han Ze nodded: "The courtyard in the county seat is relatively large, you can go there if you want, and you can invite the two younger sisters to accompany you at home when you have nothing to do."

Ge Hongbu looked at her son reluctantly, and said coyly, "I, I also want to accompany Shubo."

Han Ze: "..."

Wang Lanhua glanced at Han Ze with a smile, and then said, "You can't leave, Shu Xin Shuqing and the others should talk about her husband's family, what should they do if your mother is not at home?"

As soon as Wang Lanhua said this, Han Shuxin and Han Shuqing and the sisters hid in the house in shame.

Ge Hongbu was startled, but she had forgotten about it, Han Ze said helplessly, "Go, our family will all go to the county seat. We will all go to study with Shubo."

Wang Lanhua turned to think about it, and knew what Han Ze meant. Obviously, she couldn't find a suitable marriage for Sister Shu Xin in the countryside, and she might be able to meet a suitable one in the county.

Ge Hongbu was overjoyed, "I'll let Shu Xin and the others pack their luggage."

Han Maode said excitedly: "I've never been out of the town in my life, I never thought I'd go to the county town when I'm old."

Han Shubo smiled and said, "Grandpa, Dad also bought a yard in the capital. I will be an official in the capital in the future, and you will all live in the capital."

Han Maode opened his eyes wide and frowned at Han Ze: "When did you buy the yard in the capital?"

Han Ze patted his head and forgot to tell the old man about it, "After selling the flowers the year before last, I asked Yu Anzhi to help me buy a yard in the capital."

Han Maode let out a long breath, and then scolded: "You bastard, you don't even say hello to me for such a big matter. What a bastard."

Han Ze smiled wryly, this father is also, in front of the child, save him some face.

Han Shubo covered his mouth and snickered.

...

Knowing that Han Ze's family was going to move to the county seat, Liu Juhua finally became anxious.

She had her waist flashed at first, but later she quarreled with Han Ze, but Han Ze said that her illness was due to Brother Han Chengming, he is his mother, so he couldn't leave her alone, and the money for the doctor's prescription was shared equally by her four sons, but it was given to her. She has a few taels of silver.

But what are those taels of silver enough for? I took all of it to buy medicine, and my health improved a lot, and I was able to walk around, but I was in a panic and wanted to eat meat, but I was reluctant to use the money in my hand, so I had to plan carefully for everything I bought.

Look at Wang Lanhua again, she is wearing gold and silver jewelry, her mother-in-law is ordering her around, that is Han Ze's stepmother, he is so filial, after all these things, her mother-in-law doesn't want to compare with Wang Lanhua anymore, At least let her eat enough meat, right?

Liu Juhua looked at Han Ze and said, "I don't have any other requirements, but I just want to eat meat every day, isn't that too much? I heard that the women and girls you buy eat meat every day. Damn, although I didn't care about you back then, you always crawled out of my stomach, can't you agree to me with just such a small request?"

Han Ze saw every word she said was sad, and thought that his son was unfilial if he didn't know it, but what Liu Juhua said was right, the original body was always born by her, but if he promised her like this, he would give her money to buy meat , Obviously it was cheap for Han Xingwang and his son, and he didn't want to, he glanced at Liu Juhua, suddenly smiled, and said: "Okay, I will tell the mother-in-law at home, let them prepare the meat every day, and send it to you Half a bowl, is half a bowl of meat enough?"

He wouldn't do this to anyone else, but who made this family, it's too hateful.

Liu Juhua froze, enough must be enough, but it was only enough for her to eat, how could it be done?

She frowned and said: "This is so troublesome, you just give me the money, I will buy it, and I will do it when I go home."

Han Ze smiled and said: "We all went to the county seat, and the mother-in-law at home has nothing to do. If we don't find something for them to do, wouldn't it be a waste of money?"

Liu Juhua laughed dryly, Han Ze was an iron rooster to her, and he cared about every detail. If she wanted to say more, the half bowl of meat might be gone, so she had to agree that getting some was better than nothing.

She didn't know until Han Ze left that the half bowl of meat was eaten by herself alone. It was really not that delicious. He didn't listen to her, and talked to her in a non-yin or yang way. She scolded her, and her son was still protecting her, which made her suffocate.
