Chapter 160 The eldest son

If you offend the younger ones, you will naturally attract the older ones. Soon after, the group of crying babies came back aggressively, with the parents of each family standing behind them.

The shrewd village woman had already begun to curse, claiming that some blind farm boy had bullied her precious son and deserved a thousand knives.

When these words came to his ears, Wei Jiu immediately felt friendly. When he was a child, those who stole pears from his family and those from his family who stole dates from the west family were often laughed at and scolded by the neighbor's aunt as a person who had received a thousand knives. He was not angry and threatened the children in front of the shrewish woman.

Thinking that this seven or eight-year-old child has his mother behind him, he is not afraid anymore.

He pointed at Wei Jiupo and cursed.

"Where did you come from as a wild vixen? How dare you come to grandpa's territory?"

At this time, the bankers who came to protect their children have discovered the differences between the six people in front of them. The three teenagers were dressed in expensive clothes, and the three men behind them did not look like ordinary people. Facing these six uninvited guests, the bankers

I was a little nervous for a while.

They live just outside Chang'an, and they heard that if you throw a stone randomly in the city, it may hit a fifth-rank official on the head.

They are all farm men and they don't know how to speak nicely, so they can only stand there and watch a few people.

Li Ke heard that Wei Jiu was called a vixen, and felt that it fit this guy's temperament very well, so he smiled at the child who spoke.

But how could Wei Jiu be willing to suffer a loss? He didn't know what it meant to respect the old and love the young, so he immediately fought back.

"You unfilial son, I am your long-lost biological father."

The woman behind her had a look on her face and was about to speak immediately but was stopped by the man next to her. They were all from the village. He didn't want this orphaned and widowed couple to offend the few outsiders who looked like nobles in front of him.

But the child was not afraid, and showed a sarcastic look on his face that should not be seen at his age.

"Fart! It's been so many years since my father died. Has he really turned into a vixen? My mother doesn't like you being so thin and weak. You still want to be my father when you have no strength?"

The child's original intention is that he has no strength to work in the fields, but this is not what he meant when it fell into the ears of adults.

Wei Jiu couldn't help but move his eyes to the face of the shrewish woman. She was about twenty-eighty-nine years old. Her skin was not as fair and tender as Pei Yu's, but she was still considered a village beauty in this village. She had a melon-seed face and a big face.

Her eyes and brows are a bit more heroic than those of the weak women in Chang'an City.

When the woman saw the young man's eyes staring closely at her, not only was she not shy, but she glared back.

Wei Jiu was immediately frightened. He was bullied by the couple one after another. He felt a little embarrassed and did not dare to bully the older one, so he bullied the younger one and yelled at the child fiercely. The child was very tough and scolded him one after another.

Let Wei also have some words to say,

Li Er had no time to talk to Wei Jiu, so he and Du Ruhui stepped forward to talk to the farmers about this year's crops. Of course, he was in his capacity as a local official.

But this was enough to make the people receive him with humility.

Half of them followed Li Er, and the remaining half who couldn't say anything nice stayed to watch the two children, one big and one small, quarrel. Wei Jiu, who had been ridiculed by the children for a long time in rural dialect, finally couldn't help it anymore and burst into anger.

Open your mouth and roar.

"What? I'm asking you to call me Wei Wuliang dad and I'm going to lose you?"

As soon as these words came out, the shrewish woman's face changed instantly, and the onlookers turned around and ran away.

Nowadays, who in Chang'an doesn't know the name Wei Wuliang, who is domineering and forgets his roots to bully the people. They also know that he has always been with Mr. Qin and Mr. Li.

This is something you can't afford to offend. When the farmers left, they looked at the orphan and widowed couple with pity in their eyes. A few women even gloated about their misfortune. This vixen finally got his comeuppance, so that he wouldn't have to give to men who always seduce other people.

He delivers meat and firewood.

But the child didn't know what the three words Wei Wuliang meant. He was young and ignorant, so he broke away from his mother's restraints and yelled at Wei Jiu.

"I don't care if you have food or not, what's the use of calling you daddy? Is the rice vat at my house full?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the child received a slap in the face. His mother glared at her son with trembling hands, stretched out her hand to pull the child down behind her, and stepped forward to kneel down to Wei Jiu, but at this time Wei Jiuli became stubborn.

Ignoring the woman, he looked over at the child and smiled provocatively. At this time, the child was also a little confused. Even though he was ignorant, he knew that he had gotten into trouble today. He had never been hit by his mother for as long as he could remember.

A slap.

Seeing his mother kneeling in front of Wei Wuliang for a long time, not daring to get up, the child was so angry that tears fell down and he pointed at Wei Jiu and growled.

"Dad! I've called you daddy. Please let my mother kiss you."

To be honest, Li Chengqian couldn't stand it anymore. It was really inappropriate for Wei Jiu to make things difficult for the orphaned and widowed couple. He wanted to speak but was stopped by Li Ke.

Wei Jiu smiled, took a step forward and gave the child a violent shudder, hehehehehehe.

"Go and help your mother up. My cheap father is telling your cheap son a truth. Anyone can be wronged in this life, but only your mother can't be wronged. Stop scolding people when you have nothing to do. You will suffer from the troubles you cause.

It’s your mother, not you, who brings dad to your house to have a look, isn’t it just to order some rice?”

This rice is really not a problem for Wei Jiu nowadays. Anyone who bullies an orphan or a widowed mother will naturally have to pay compensation.

The child's name is Lu Mi, a very complicated word.

Wei Jiu quarreled and quarreled with Lu Mi all the way. Lu Mi had a father, and Wei Jiu had an eldest son. Of course, neither of them were fools, they were just having fun.

Li Ke was too lazy to pay attention to Wei Jiu and ran to find Li Er. Li Chengqian and Lu Mi's mother followed behind and whispered a few words from time to time, but they were just to excuse Wei Jiu's infamy.

Only when he arrived at their house did Wei Jiu know what it meant to live in a house with four walls, an empty yard, a thatched hut with two doors, two quilts neatly stacked on the earthen bed in the hut, and a textile shuttle. This was the Lu Mi family.

Wei Jiu sat by the kang without disdain, while Li Chengqian stood in the room and refused to sit down. Even if both of them were sold, Wei Jiu couldn't afford the set of brocade clothes he was wearing.

The woman coyly brought two bowls of water with two good-looking porcelain bowls. Li Chengqian and Wei Jiu shook their heads at the same time, and then Lu Mi brought a jar.

The size was only about half his body, and there was not a single grain of rice in the jar. Seeing this, Wei Jiu laughed and scolded him for throwing the rice out. Lu Mi shook his head firmly.

"My family didn't have rice. I didn't have a father, and my mother couldn't farm or rent land. So I relied on my mother to spin cloth in exchange for millet."

Wei Jiu didn't believe what this smart little guy said, so he turned to look at the woman. The woman didn't show any sign of embarrassment at all, she nodded seriously and said softly.

"Even if the government rents the land to us, we can't take care of it. The folks in Zhuangzi are very nice. They will send us firewood in winter and some pieces of meat after we go hunting in the mountains. We just dare to look at it but don't dare to ask for it. Wei

Young Master, please don’t take this rebellious son’s words to heart. He has been without a father since he was a child, and it’s all because of my spoiling him.”

Wei Jiu shrugged and ignored the mother and son, but looked at Li Chengqian.

"How do you feel at this time? Your heart is a little blocked, a little uncomfortable, right? The rich are getting richer, and the poor are getting poorer, right?"

Li Chengqian said nothing, snorted coldly and took out a money bag from his arms. Feeling a little unwilling to think about it, he stepped forward and took out the money bag from Wei Jiu's arms and threw it to Lu Mi, then strode out of the room.

He was a little depressed. Many people died in the war against the Tang Dynasty in the past few years. There were not many orphans and widowers like this. Lu Mi was lucky enough to meet him and Wei Jiu today, but what about the others? Li Chengqian was a little depressed, very uncomfortable, very uncomfortable.

Lu Mi was a little stunned as he held the two money bags. He had never seen so much money in his life. After being stunned, he was overjoyed. He held the two money bags and smiled silly at his mother.

"Mom! Now that we have money, we don't have to bear the injustice of those people anymore. Look, look."

"Give it back to Mr. Wei."

"mother!"

"Mother asked you to return it to Mr. Wei."

Lu Mi cried anxiously. With this much money, they could buy a lot of rice and a lot of meat. Her mother didn't have to spend all night spinning cloth, and she didn't have to go out and be scolded by the shrews in the village for being a cunning vixen. He didn't want to pay back the money.

Give it to Wei Jiu, because he earned the money, but he didn't want his mother to fall in love with him, so he handed the money bag to Wei Jiu with tears on his face.

But Wei Jiu didn't answer, pinching Lu Mi's tear-filled face and laughing and scolding.

"How can any son return money to his father? Besides, dad is not short of this little money. As long as you, a prodigal son, have seen that dad is not calling me a vixen, you can go out and scold those who have bullied your mother.

People, keep the money to buy rice. I wanted to use copper coins to fill your little jar, but unfortunately I didn’t bring so much today. I will keep the rest to marry you a wife in the future? Don’t talk to your mother, give me the money quickly.

Mom, Mrs. Lu, please accept the money. I like this child Lu Mi very much. He is very much like me when I was a child, but he is luckier than me. He has a mother to protect him. This year will not be too easy. You can take the money later.

Go to the city to buy food. Don't buy good ones, but be sure to buy more. The price of food will double in two months. Don't worry, go buy it now. I forgot to tell you that the one who just left was His Highness the Crown Prince. You

If you insist on returning the money bag, it will not end well if you offend him."

Mrs. Lu was stunned on the spot. Is that the current Crown Prince? She used a broken bowl to let the Crown Prince drink cold water?

She was panicked, scared, and stood there at a loss.

But Lu Mi was really a tough kid. After throwing the money bag to his mother, he stepped forward and took Wei Jiu's hand.

"Dad, Bai Lai, please take me to the Chen family in Zhuangzi. Their family is having a lively wedding today."

Wei Jiu waved his hand and slapped Lu Mi on the back of the head. The force was not strong but it felt very good. He pretended to be serious and scolded.

"If you have time to do something serious, call your brothers to catch locusts in the fields. After they are dried, they will cost you ten cents a sack. Be smart and think about it yourself."

Lu Mi's eyes lit up.

"Then can I collect nine cents and sell it to you for ten cents? Where can I find you?"

"You can teach me, you can also collect six cents. I don't care what you do, and I won't give you any more money. You can do it yourself."

Wei Jiu is gone!

I know there is something strange about this 'father and son' pair.
