Chapter 161 Tang Bohu's Peaceful Life

There are not many customers in the store today. Chen Jiuniang can sit behind the counter and concentrate on embroidery. The products in her store are divided into two categories. The first category is Tang Yin's calligraphy and painting, and the second category is embroidery. These embroidery products are She used her free time to embroider her own embroidery, and there were also women from neighbors who embroidered it and placed it in the store for consignment.

Although Chen Jiuniang has a bad background, she has a gentle and resolute personality and is very good at getting along with her neighbors. In addition, Tang Bohu and Jie Yuan's reputation make the thugs on the street dare not come to the store to cause trouble. Although the income is not large, it can barely support their family's life. However, Tang Bohu is a scholar after all, and he is always allowed to gather with a few friends. This is also the biggest expense in their family. Fortunately, Tang Bohu was famous at that time, and people came from time to time. When you find calligraphy and paintings, the brushwork you get is quite expensive every time, which can only be supported by barely supporting it.

"Jiu Niang, why are you still here? Hurry up... Come with me to the vegetable market. A new fish stall has arrived there. On the first day of today, all the fish are half price. Now many neighbors are running. I went to buy fish, but it would be gone if I was late!" At this moment, a coarse cloth woman in her forties stood in front of the store and shouted at Chen Jiuniang. Seeing her panting, she probably was running all the way. Prepare to grab the fish.

This coarse cloth woman is a neighbor nearby. Because her husband ranks third, she is called her third sister-in-law. She usually has the best relationship with Chen Jiuniang. Chen Jiuniang has a bad background. Although others don’t say it on the surface, it is sometimes inevitable. She will look down on her. The third sister-in-law has a stingy personality and is a stingy woman. When she encounters others bullying Chen Jiuniang, she will immediately go up and scold her until the other party surrenders.

"That's great, third sister-in-law, wait for me. I'll let my husband come down to see the shop. Let's go now!" Chen Jiuniang was also very surprised when she heard this. She threw down the embroidery in her hand and whispered upstairs. "My husband, come down to see the shop, I'll go buy fish with my third sister-in-law."

As soon as Chen Jiuniang finished speaking, she saw a man in his thirties going downstairs and laughing: "My third sister-in-law's voice is so loud, I've heard it upstairs. Go quickly, give it to Tao at noon. Sheng is her favorite braised fish."

The middle-aged man who went downstairs was the depressed and unsuccessful Tang Bohu. But now he has Jiu Niang's company, and the two have another daughter named Taosheng, which finally cheered up a little. Start relaxing and enjoying this peaceful urban life.

"Oh! I haven't seen Tang Jieyuan for a few days. Your complexion is much better than before. Speaking of which, Jiu Niang can take care of others. If I want me to be a man, I have to snatch Jiu Niang and be my wife!" The third sister-in-law saw her going downstairs and saw her going downstairs. When Tang Bohu was in trouble, he couldn't help but joke. The neighbors respected Tang Bohu's identity as a scholar and did not dare to talk to Tang Bohu easily. But the third sister-in-law was never afraid and would make a few jokes every time she saw him.

"Haha, the third sister-in-law becomes a man and robs Jiu Niang with me. What should I do if the third brother wants to make him and the third sister-in-law become brothers?" Tang Bohu smiled and fought back. If it were before, he might have been this way. He was so helpless that he was so funny that he had already adapted to these jokes, and he could even fight back without changing his face.

However, the third sister-in-law's mouth was not so easy to give in. She held the basket on her arm and curled her lips disdainfully, "Our family's mouth is hopeless that I can become a man, so that he can I was given up, and then I opened my eyes to the little widow who sold tofu on the North Street!”

At this time, Chen Jiuniang also walked out of the shop with a basket of vegetables. After hearing the words of the third sister-in-law, she couldn't help but smile and comfort her: "Haha, San sister-in-law, you just like to think about it. The third brother transports goods to people and often wants to go to the North Street. The tofu shop delivers beans, so naturally I can’t help dealing with others, not as you think!”

"Why didn't there? My sister-in-law told you today that a man doesn't have a good thing. If he loosens his tube a little, he will run to steal fish. I have caught it several times in the past few years..."

The third sister-in-law and Shen Jiuniang were walking and saying that the words were nothing more than scolding her for having an ambiguous relationship with other women over the years, and how wise and decisive she took action. Finally, her husband pulled back from the dangerous cliff. .

Looking at his wife and third sister-in-law who were leaving, Tang Bohu couldn't help but shook his head helplessly. Although his third sister-in-law was enthusiastic, she was a jealous woman. She strictly managed her husband, which also made the one who transported goods to others. The third brother has a reputation of "fearing the inside". Neighbors all know this. Sometimes Tang Bohu is really worried that Jiu Niang will be influenced by his third sister-in-law, and will take care of herself to death in the future. At that time, he will regret it. It's too late.

"Dad~Dad~, I met my mother just now, and she said she would cook fish for me at noon!" At this moment, a three or four-year-old girl rushed in from outside the store and plunged into Tang Bohu's arms and was excited. The little girl was Tao Sheng, the daughter of Tang Bohu and Shen Jiuniang. The reason for this name was that Tang Bohu had always wanted to buy a peach forest in the north of the city as his seclusion, but unfortunately she was short of money and temporarily I had no money to buy, so I gave my daughter a name with the word "peach".

Tao Sheng is just three and a half years old this year, but she is already very naughty. She runs around with some children in the neighborhood all day long. Tang Bohu and Shen Jiuniang are very spoiled by this daughter, so even if she makes any mistakes, she is reluctant to beat and scold her. .

"Haha, Taosheng, if you want to remember to listen to your mother, she will naturally make delicious food for you." Tang Bohu picked up his daughter's dirty little face, smiled and said, then he frowned and said again, "Taosheng, you're here, I'll go upstairs and get a towel to wipe your face."

"Well, Taosheng is very obedient, and not only listens to his mother's words, but also to his father's words, so you must make more delicious food for me." Although Taosheng is young, he is a ghost elf and he knows to bargain with his father. .

When Tang Bohu heard his daughter's words, he laughed. At the same time, he couldn't help but reach out and pinch her little nose, then turned to the stairs to get a wet towel. However, just as he went upstairs, he saw a figure walking from the corner of the street. A fat middle-aged scribe.

I saw this scholar who saw Tao Sheng when he entered the store and immediately laughed and raised Tao Sheng over his head. As a result, the little girl screamed in fear. When she saw the person holding her, she immediately giggled. He smiled and said, "Uncle, you are here to find my father again. Do you want my father to draw those villains who are not wearing clothes again?"

The fat scholar who came in was Zhu Zhishan, but when he heard Tao Sheng's words, he couldn't help but look embarrassed. Because of life, Tang Bohu was forced to draw some pictures of the erotic palace, and Zhu Zhishan had a wide range of friendship. Therefore, most of the business of Tang Bohu painting the sequel to him. In addition, Tang Bohu's home is very small, so Tao Sheng was inevitably seen when he was painting, but this little girl actually remembered it.

Although it was embarrassing to be asked by a little girl, Zhu Zhishan was quite thick-skinned. He laughed and changed the subject: "Taosheng, you little girl haven't seen each other for a few days, and it seems that you have become much heavier again. If you continue like this, please forgive me.

My uncle is about to be unable to move you."

"Hehe, Taosheng needs to eat more and grow up quickly, and then he will be able to help his father and mother check the shop!" Taosheng said with a smile. Although she is young, she also knows that her family is not well off.

What I think about every day is to grow up quickly to help my parents.

Zhu Zhishan put down Taosheng, then laughed and said, "Taosheng, if you grow up quickly, you may not be able to help, because you will get married by then."

"I'm not getting married. I'll be with my dad and mother for the rest of my life!" When the little girl heard about her getting married, she immediately pouted unhappily and said.

"Brother Zhishan, you are here to bully our Taosheng again. Be careful that she has lit your beard like last time!" At this moment, Tang Bohu walked down from the upper floor with a towel in his hand,

This wooden building was not big at all. When he was upstairs just now, he heard the conversation between his daughter and Zhu Zhishan very clearly, so he also smiled and teased.

Tang Bohu and Zhu Zhishan are in a similar temperament, so they are each other's confidants. The two families often walk around. Last time, Tang Bohu took Taosheng to Zhu's house. Zhu Zhishan was lying in the back garden and fell asleep in the sun. As a result, Taosheng saw Zhu Zhishan.

The shiny beard trembled and very interesting. Finally, he lit his beard with a burning wooden stick. Fortunately, I woke up early and put out the fire on his beard, but his shiny big beard

But his beard is a lot shorter.

When his father mentioned his naughty things, Taosheng covered his little hands and laughed secretly, while Zhu Zhishan said helplessly: "Taosheng is really naughty, but unfortunately my sons are better than hers.

Big, otherwise I would have to let them marry Taosheng. Let my son discipline him well, which would be considered as avenging me, my father!"

Hearing Zhu Zhishan's half-true joke, Tang Bohu shook his head a little regretfully. They had a close relationship and knew each other well. If they could become children and in-laws, it would be a good thing. Unfortunately, Zhu Zhishan was older than him.

At the age of ten, the youngest son is six or seven years older than Tao Sheng, and he has already married someone, so the two have no chance to become in-laws.

"Brother Zhishan, what's wrong with you coming to me today?" Tang Bohu hugged Taosheng on his lap and asked while wiping his daughter's face. Both of them were already familiar with each other, and there was a little silence.

Don't worry, let alone the space here is small and there is no place to serve tea.

"Hehe, this time I came here to have a big customer for you. The other party has to draw a lot of things, and the pen is also very generous. As long as it can be done, the money you have always wanted to buy the Peach Blossom Forest in the north of the city will be settled..."

Just as Zhu Zhishan said this, there was a sudden noise outside the store. Then two rows of Jinyiwei suddenly surrounded the store, which made Zhu Zhishan and Tang Bohu's faces full of surprise. I don't know why they came so well.
Chapter completed!
