Wang Dafu and Wang Chenxiang came, and Wang Benchang's wife Wang You also came. As soon as he came, the Wang You clan began to howl: "Patriarch, do you care about the Ishii family? This cousin and sister-in-law came to the door and kicked them out. This doesn't make him a member of the Wang clan at all!"

What is the wicked to report first. Wang Wenhe pointed at the Wang You clan angrily, and said tremblingly, "You still have the face to cry with me. You ask what good things your son and daughter-in-law have done! We have lost all the face of our Wang clan to them! Ancestral Hall!"

Wang Youshi was stunned for a moment, and immediately panicked. Wang Chenxiang walked over to her mother-in-law and said confidently: "Patriarch, you are unfair. Dafu and I also said that you can buy it with money, but Shao Yunan was too bully. It's 10,000 taels. Isn't it obvious that he won't sell it? He would rather sell the recipes that he earned to Lizheng than to his clansmen. What is wrong with Dafu and I? Dafu and I also want to buy them for our family. A recipe for making money, what's the shame? Aunt Wang's family made our family almost go to prison. You don't say they're embarrassing to our family. We are all for the family, so you have to open an ancestral hall. The heart is too much."

"You, you..." Wang Wenhe was trembling with anger and his face was pale, but he couldn't refute Wang Chenxiang's words. Wang Benchang also said: "Patriarch, my family's blessings are all for the clan. Wang Dali's family caused such a big disaster, Wang Tianyan and his mother-in-law were even arrested, and Wang Zhisong was humiliated and thrown in front of the county magistrate. Why don't you? Open the ancestral hall. My family just wants to ask for a recipe for the clan, so you can open the ancestral hall, and you will not be afraid of the cold? You paid Wang Dali's family to hire someone to go to the ground, why didn't you say that you would give us three taels of silver? Hire someone to go to the ground? Just because there is a Tong Shenglang in my family, but I don’t have one? You are so biased, we won’t go to this ancestral hall.”

After finishing speaking, Wang Benchang said to his family: "Go home! Kindness is not rewarded, go!"

Wang Benchang ignored Wang Wenhe's black face and left with his family. Even the clan elders who wanted to punish were speechless. When it comes to dealing with Mrs. Wang's family, they are indeed partial. Wang Benchang said so, they really didn't care. The remaining members of the Wang family looked at each other in dismay. Wang Benchang's words were irritating, but they couldn't refute it. The fact was that the patriarch was indeed partial to Mrs. Wang's family, and the reason was that there was a Tong Shenglang in the family.

Father Wang let out a long sigh, looked at Wang Wenhe, who was on the verge of collapse, and said, "Patriarch, don't let the people get away from your heart." After saying this earnestly, Father Wang took his family away. The three clan elders signaled to let everyone disperse, and then one of them said, "Shu Ping, help your father in."

Wang Shuping, who was very aggrieved, helped his father, who seemed to fall down at any time, into the house, and the three ancestors also followed in. After a while, Wang Shen's howl could be heard in the house. They could only endure being poured such a big pot of dirty water, Wang Chen was so angry that he wanted to kill him.

The three clan elders asked Wang Shuping to go to Wang Shijing's house, and this must be made clear. Shao Yunan "made good friends" with the magistrate. Their Wang family has lost their face in front of the magistrate. If Shao Yunan mentions this to the magistrate, seriously, don't think about their Wang family in the future. In the early stage, Wang Zhisong will also be implicated.

When the old lady Wang's family heard that Shao Yunan went to the patriarch's house, they all hid in the house and did not go out. But the neighbors were kind and eager to come to the door to tell them what happened. Originally, Mrs. Wang was quite happy to hear it, and Wang Dafu came to ask for the recipe, but she listened and heard Wang Chenxiang saying later that the patriarch would punish his family first. Otherwise, Mrs. Wang was angry. .

This gossip is often spread in a biased way. Although the meaning of the words is similar, if the original words are slightly changed, the listeners will understand them differently. Mrs. Wang thought about your family's affairs and what to do with my family, and dared to mention the pine trees. She was greedy for the recipe for the jam, but he didn't let Wang Dafu ask for it! Mrs. Wang immediately dragged Wang Chunxiu to Wang Dafu's house. In the past, when Mrs. Wang went out, it was Guo Zhaodi who followed him. Now that Guo Zhaodi is in prison, Mrs. Wang can only drag Wang Chunxiu along. She suffers too much by herself.

Not to mention that Mrs. Wang and Wang Dafu's family quarreled into a pot of porridge, the Zhao family and the Sun family watched the Wang family's joke hard. The most important thing is that Shao Yunan, who is so capable, has not yet entered the Wang family tree, and people do not recognize him as a member of the Wang family at all. Some people secretly said that the Wang family deserved it. Wang Qing is six years old and has not yet entered the family tree. Wang Wen and the patriarch have only Wang Zhisong in their eyes. This Wang Zhisong has not brought him the slightest benefit. He has already left his heart. Although Wang Chenxiang and Wang Benchang were suspected of confounding right and wrong, they were right, and they even expressed the dissatisfaction in the hearts of many clansmen.

When Wang Shuping came over, Shao Yunan and Wang Shijing were still as enthusiastic as ever. Wang Shuping was very embarrassed and depressed. Shao Yunan took out a cup of chrysanthemum tea that had already been prepared and placed it in front of Wang Shuping. Wang Shuping looked up at the yellow chrysanthemum in the white porcelain cup and raised his head in surprise.

Wang Shijing said, "This is a chrysanthemum tea made by Yunan. It's just finished."

Shao Yunan said: "The taste is a bit bitter, Brother Shuping, you can try it."

Wang Shuping blew the hot water, took a sip, and immediately showed surprise in his eyes. The taste is a little bitter, but also very peculiar. He took another sip. After swallowing it, he thought about it carefully and said, "It was a bit bitter at first, but it's a bit sweet after drinking it." After taking another sip, he nodded, "It's delicious."

Shao Yun'an said: "These are the wild chrysanthemums picked from the mountain. Brother Jing and I have no energy to get them, and everyone is busy with farming again, so I didn't get much of them. Originally, I drank the wild chrysanthemums for Brother Jing and the children. Clear the heat and turn off the fire, and put a few slices of licorice on it to taste better. I'll ask Brother Jing to pack some for you later."

"No, no." Wang Shuping didn't have the nerve to ask for it. He had never seen this chrysanthemum tea, so Shao Yunan must have used it to make money.

Shao Yunan glanced at Wang Shijing, and Wang Shijing got up and went out. Chrysanthemum tea is in Wang Qing and Nizi's house. Shao Yunan said: "Brother Shuping, don't blame me for what happened just now. Brother Jing is from the Wang clan, and he can't talk about many grievances, and he can't talk about it. Today, someone brought a piece of meat and a bag of rice and asked me to make tea. Recipe, I don't know what to get tomorrow, I want to give it to you for free. I'm not boasting, no one in the world knows my recipes except me. Even if I don't lack money, I don't have such a big measure, not to mention my family spends money. There are still more places, they come to ask me for the craftsmanship of eating, I have to ask the patriarch to come forward, otherwise anyone can use the family affection to suppress our family."

Wang Shuping sighed: "Wang Dafu's family loves to take advantage. Yun An, my father and I have never paid attention to the jam recipe."

Shao Yunan said: "I believe this. But my words are not nonsense. The husband and wife are indeed accusing me of selling the recipe to the Lizheng family instead of the patriarch."

Wang Shuping was so angry that veins appeared on his forehead.

Shao Yunan said: "Brother Shuping, don't blame me for speaking badly. Why do Wang Dafu and the others dare to say such things? If the patriarch's prestige in the clan is high enough, his family dares to throw dirty water on the patriarch? What's next? Someone told me too. The final result of the patriarch's indulgence towards the big house is that the clansmen are not afraid of him. Brother Shuping, let me ask, if Wang Zhisong can't pass the exam at all, can the patriarch bear the consequences of his long-standing favoritism. "

Wang Shuping was silent, his brows furrowed. Shao Yunan continued: "I was going to use the recipe for jam to make money at first, but after discussing it with Brother Jing, I decided to sell it, because if it was in our hands, we couldn't protect it at all."

Wang Shuping raised his eyes, and Shao Yunan said directly: "If we make money with jam, will people in the clan make trouble, will there be trouble from the big house, will there be trouble from the big house? At that time, how would the patriarch judge? Our family made money from selling stones and already made the big house jealous. If it wasn't for me going to the county school to find a teacher to judge, would my family's money from selling stones and the remaining stones be kept and returned? say two."

Wang Shuping was very angry, the patriarch was his father.

Wang Shuping couldn't answer, and Shao Yunan continued: "For the sake of brother Jing and me's peace in the future, and for brother Jing and me to earn money with peace of mind in the future, I have to hand over the recipe for this jam. But Brother Jing is clearly surnamed Wang, I But we can only give it to Lizheng, because only Lizheng can keep our family peaceful. I give the recipe to the patriarch here, and the patriarch may take it to the big house to 'please' Wang Zhisong. Even if it is to Shuping Brother, you can't protect yourself."

Wang Shuping felt ashamed to face the family.

"Brother Shuping, if it is not a last resort, Brother Jing will not leave the clan. But now the clan is not only not a shelter for us, but sometimes it is the party that harms us. For me and Brother Jing to live, we want our two children to stay away. If our family is hurt, we must find someone who can protect us. The clan can’t protect us, we can only find Lizheng. This house is the protector for me, Brother Jing, Brother Qing and Nizi.”

Shao Yunan said helplessly: "I originally planned to sell this recipe for chrysanthemum tea to the fourth uncle and the fourth aunt. With Wang Dafu like this, the patriarch has no choice but to take people like them, so I hesitated. I don't want the fourth uncle and the fourth aunt. The fourth aunt didn't earn much money by then, but instead suffered disaster."

Wang Shuping asked in shock: "You also want to sell this? This chrysanthemum tea may make more money than that jam. Yun An, I will persuade him well. Don't you and Ishii still have the county magistrate to decide? You sell any house, how many can you sell? People who can't buy it will gossip about you, and you will be even worse."

Shao Yunan smiled: "I can't take care of everyone, but I will definitely repay those who are kind to my family. Brother Shuping, to be honest, if I wasn't afraid that the patriarch would take my recipe to the big house, this chrysanthemum I really want to give you the recipe for tea. Brother Jing and I both know that you are for us. Don't say that I have a small mind. There can't be a day of reconciliation between our family and the big house. Even if my recipe is Burn it, and it won't let them get the slightest bit of cheapness."

Wang Shuping's mood was very ups and downs. Shao Yunan said: "Brother Shuping, even if the patriarch won't reveal the recipe to the big house, I'm worried that all the money you've worked so hard to earn will be used to subsidize it. Even if you don't care, it's impossible for your sister-in-law to endure it all the time. You'd better persuade the patriarch, don't just stare at Wang Zhisong's fame, the family in the big house is not repaying kindness, even if Wang Zhisong can be the prime minister, he can bring the Wang family and the patriarch. What? I'm not asking the patriarch to do anything to the big house in the future, I only want the patriarch to be fair and just."

Wang Shijing came in with a paper bag in his hand. He came over and put the paper bag in front of Wang Shuping, who immediately smelled the smell of chrysanthemums.

"Brother Shuping, take it back and soak Brother Yan in water, this thing will be on fire."

"No, I want to come back another day."

Wang Shuping refused to take it, so Shao Yunan took it and shoved it into his arms: "It's not for you to drink. This thing clears the liver, improves eyesight, disperses wind and clears heat. It's the most suitable for Brother Yan to drink. I heard that he has a hard time studying."

Wang Shuping pursed his lips and accepted: "Then I won't be polite to you." After a pause, he said: "You still make this thing and sell it yourself. Even in Grandpa Sun's place, I have never seen this. Grandpa Sun knows the shopkeeper of the pharmacy in the county, and this thing is sure to make money by buying the pharmacy."

Shao Yunan really felt that Wang Shuping and Wang Wenhe were not like father and son, and they were more reasonable. Shao Yunan smiled and said, "Okay, I will discuss with Brother Jing again. But Brother Shuping, what should I do if someone from the clan comes to ask for a recipe again? I can't go to the patriarch again."

Wang Shuping's face immediately turned cold: "Just call it out. Most of the people who resist are still reasonable, and those who are unreasonable don't have to give them face. I will persuade him well on my father's side, and the three clan elders also know how to choose. Otherwise, whoever has a craft that can make money will be remembered in the future."

"It's fine with your words."

Shao Yunan felt that Wang Shuping was more suitable to be the patriarch.

Wang Shuping left with a pack of wild chrysanthemums, and Shao Yunan turned around and smiled at Wang Shijing: "The patriarch will probably vomit blood from anger."

Wang Shijing took him into his arms: "If the patriarch still insists on his own way, the clan will only become more and more distant from him, and sooner or later something will happen. Fortunately, Brother Shuping is sensible."

Shao Yunan breathed a sigh of relief: "Ha, now the Sun and Zhao clans are on our side, and we will have no scruples in doing business in the future." After speaking, Shao Yunan suddenly shouted, "I forgot something very important!"

"What's the matter? Don't worry, don't worry." Wang Shijing was taken aback and hurriedly hugged his daughter-in-law with both hands.

"Buying grape seeds!" Shao Yunan slapped his forehead hard, breaking Wang Shijing's arms and rushing into the house to write a letter. He has been busy all the time, and he has forgotten such an important thing!

Wang Shijing caught up with him and grabbed it: "Don't be in a hurry, daughter-in-law. I have already asked Brother Yuande to help write the businessman in Trust County and send it out."

"Huh? When?"

"Before the farming was busy. Brother Yuande went to the county to deliver jam, and I asked him to help write a letter. There are businessmen in the county who can send the letter there with a little money, and I didn't say that as long as the grapes are grown , said that as long as they can get as much as the rare fruit seeds there, if there are tea seeds, they will also get them out. There is a kind of melon called red melon, the flesh is red, eat it in summer, it is sweet and watery, you are sure I like it. There is also a kind of melon with yellow flesh and many golden lines on the skin. It is called loofah, and it is also very sweet. If we can also grow it, you can also see if we can make jam.”

Isn't that watermelon and cantaloupe? !

Shao Yunan jumped onto Wang Shijing's body and climbed on all fours: "Brother Jing, you are so powerful!" A big cheek popped.

Wang Shijing didn't understand what it meant to be forceful, but it must be a good idea. He was very happy that his daughter-in-law was happy. Just like that, he carried the person into the house and put the person on the kang.

"I'm going to boil water, do you want to take a shower?"

"Don't wash it, just wipe it. How long will it take for the letter to reach your comrade-in-arms?"

"Just your brother who fought."

comrade-in-arms... as expected.

Wang Shijing: "It depends on how long it takes to go there on the business road, but it will take a month at the earliest."

"Ah, doesn't it take at least two months for me to hear back?" Ancient times without express delivery was too inconvenient!

"Don't worry. If I don't need to watch the fields and the new house every day, I'll go pick wild chrysanthemums for you. This chrysanthemum tea is delicious, you should make more."

"Do you like it?"

"...clear the heat and get rid of the fire, you should drink more."

"...You boring old man!"

"Stupid? What do you mean?"

Are you old? Wang Shijing touched his temples. Shao Yunan dragged the person onto the bed: "Just like you, a guy who looks honest and is actually a pervert is boring!"

"You are my daughter-in-law."

Wang Shijing didn't think he was a pervert. Shouldn't he be jealous of his own daughter-in-law?

Next door, fortunately you didn't hear the words behind you and said seriously: "Brother, I will be as good as my father in the future."

Wang Qing patted her sister's head: "Well, brother should be like little father."

Shao Yunan didn't know that he had become the idol of the two children. At this time, he was being scolded by someone.
