Chapter 225

The elder Liu was not angry and said, "don't worry about it. He deserves to be beaten by Mr. Liu. Wait a minute. I'll have to hit him again. What the hell has he done? "

For a moment, he was at a loss and went to help Liu Cheng.

"Niang, I can go without your help." Liu Cheng looks guilty and goes in with pain. On the way, boss Liu scolded him all the time and also mentioned that old man Liu was ill.

At the moment, Liu Cheng is really sorry.

He shipiantou wiped tears.

In the yard, Liu fu'er is holding Liu Xu'er. Both of them are looking at the gate with red eyes. As soon as Liu Cheng goes in, he can't look up at them.

Old man Liu sat on the stool and drank harshly, "Liu Cheng, come and kneel down."

"Old man, didn't the doctor tell you not to be so angry? Don't do that. I'll deal with Liu Cheng. " Mrs. Liu urged her.

"I'll do it. It's no use persuading anyone today!"

"Grandfather." After receiving the hint from old lady Liu, Zhang Qiao quickly went to stand beside old man Liu and said, "big cousin has been punished by 20 big boards in the yamen, and she has made a public statement to know her mistake. Things are wrong, but we have to give him a chance to correct them, right?

Big cousin is a scholar. He knows that there is a saying in the book that people are not saints. No one can be faultless and can correct his mistakes. The point is to listen to what he says later.

You, the body matters, otherwise how can grandfather have the energy to watch him change, watch him become a tool? Not only big cousins, but also cousins, cousins, brothers and sisters, as well as our three brothers and sisters, we are looking forward to my grandfather's long life, and we can see our family and family in the future. We are all looking forward to showing filial piety to our grandfather and grandmother.

Grandpa, you should calm down first. Don't hold your breath in your heart. It's not good. Let's listen to my cousin now, shall we

Old man Liu was so smooth hair by Zhang Qiao, that fried hair, immediately shun a lot.

He glared at Liu Cheng, "you explain."

Liu Cheng fell to his knees with a thump, and with tears of remorse, he told all the story. In any case, he was not determined enough and was fascinated by wealth. That's what happened.

After listening to this, everyone felt very sad.

"My Lord, I don't ask you to forgive me now. Please give me a chance to prove that I can improve myself."

Old man Liu was suffering.

The child was brought up under his knees. It's hard for him to do something wrong. Now the child is crying for a chance to prove that he can change, and he feels comforted.

The granddaughter is right. People do wrong things, and they can correct their mistakes. That's the best thing.

"Yes! I'll give you a chance to talk about how you're going to reform? "

Liu Cheng choked: "I don't want to go to the Academy. Mr. Yuan once said that my qualifications are too general. I'm not as good as a yin. For so many years, I can't even pass the entrance examination as a child student, let alone a scholar or a Juren.

I'm busy at home. I'm the eldest brother. I want to go home and do things with my father. Let's go to the Academy together. In addition, I borrowed the hundred liang from my cousin. I wrote an IOU to my cousin. I'll pay back the money myself. "

"How can you return it?" Boss Liu asked in a bad tone.

Liu Cheng said: "Dad, my son helps at home. Can you pay me some wages every month? I can always save enough money to return it to my cousin."

Boss Liu nodded, "OK!"

It's settled.

In the evening, Liu Cheng wrote an IOU to Zhang Qiao. Zhang Qiao accepted it and said, "big cousin, I believe you can change it. My grandfather and grandmother are old, and there are many things at home. It's good for you to come back and help my uncle. As a matter of fact, it is not the only way to study and pursue official career that leads to the number one in 360 lines. "

Liu Cheng said with a smile, "thank you for waking up my cousin."

"You're welcome, cousin!"

The next morning, Zhang Qiao and Shi Jin went back to Haitang village.

Liu old man's illness, every six days to come to a follow-up visit on the line, usually according to the doctor's advice to drink medicine to recuperate, slowly can take good care of the body.

Back in Zhangjia, Liu heard about Liu Cheng and sighed.

"Alas! This ah Cheng has been clever and sensible since he was a child. I didn't expect that he would go wrong. Fortunately, it's not too late. He knows to correct it. "

"Mother, don't think about it. As for people, they can only grow up and mature through business. Now he knows the way ahead and how to go, which is a good thing. "

Zhang Qiao comforted her as she packed up the things in her bag.

Mother and daughter talked about old man Liu's illness again, and Zhang Qiao didn't hide it from her. Liu couldn't help crying.

"Your grandfather has been working hard all his life. He's getting better, but he's getting so sick again."

"Mother, we often go to accompany him in the future. There are eight hardships in life: birth, old age, illness and death, love and separation, long-term resentment, not being able to ask, not being able to let go. "

Zhang Qiao put down her things and hugged Liu.

Speaking of the eight hardships of her life, Zhang Qiao feels more transparent. For those unknown past, she plans to formally put it down.Liu patted her on the back, "my mother knows you are sensible."

……

Soon, it's December.

Looking at the fine weather, Zhang Qiao asked Zhang Dacheng to kill the pigs and prepare some bacon and sausage. For the Chinese new year, go to the town and buy some fresh meat. Those are better.

Mr. and Mrs. Zhang Dacheng took the opportunity to kill pigs.

They are butchers. They don't have to find others to kill pigs. They just have to fight with their own family.

"I read the Yellow calendar. The sixth day of the twelfth lunar month is a good day for killing." Liu came out of the room and let Zhang Qiao take a sip of tea.

She can't laugh or cry of looking at Liu Shi, "Niang, what do you say?"

Liu repeated: "I said, I turned the Yellow calendar, the sixth day of the twelfth lunar month is a good day, it is appropriate to kill. We're going to kill pigs on the sixth day of junior high school. "

"Cough..." Zhang Qiao choked and bent down to cough.

Liu's side to help her Fubei, while asked: "you this wench good, how do you cough up?"? Is it cold? "

"Mother, I'm not. I'm ok!" Zhang Qiao straightened up and said, "Niang, how can you kill a pig and turn the Yellow calendar? In the past, I went out to help people kill pigs every day, but I didn't see you turning the Yellow calendar? "

Liu sighed, "in order to make a living and bring up your brother and sister, I had no other skills. I had to do your father's old business. Now the family life is better, your father and I don't need to be butchers.

I've heard that killing too many people is bad for the family, and retribution will fall on the family. Your grandfather is in poor health. I think... "

Zhang Qiao understood all of a sudden.

She clenched Liu's hand, "Niang, that's not what I said. All things in the world have their own lives. People raise poultry, raise them, kill and eat them. This is not the killing of all evils, but the demand of life and food chain. You don't want to do all this to yourself. "

"Really?"

"Mother, don't you believe me?"
