Poor Family

"Take this and give it to Young Master Zhao when you arrive at the Zhao residence."

Shi Dinghao took the medicine bottle that Shi Fuxin handed over, with a puzzled expression on his face: "What are you doing for Zhao Shenghao's ointment?"

Shi Fuxin explained: "Brother and Mr. Zhao are exchanging ideas, and I can't even move my arms. Mr. Zhao is probably not going to be much better. This is for Mr. Zhao. Now that I have come to the door, I naturally have to express it to the Zhao family. Our friendship."

Shi Dinghao: "Then I'll just give it to Mr. Zhao."

Shi Fuxin cast a sideways glance at her younger brother: "If you want to give it to Mr. Zhao directly, I might as well ask you to give it to Mr. Zhao. It's a detour to ask you to give it to Mr. Zhao, so that Mr. Zhao will not lose face and feel that he was hurt by his brother." gone."

Only then did Shi Dinghao look stunned: "I understand, don't worry, I'll leave this matter to me."

When Shi Zheng and You Shi went to the Yamen, in order to save time, Shi Zhengmao took Shi Dingxuan and Shi Dinghao directly to Beicheng Bingmasi to wait for him.

Shifu's carriages were all custom-made according to the earl's specifications, and the people from Beicheng Bingma Division were stunned when they saw Shi Zhenghe getting into the carriage.

"What's the origin of Brother Shi? Only Earls can ride in that carriage."

Shi Zhenghe kept a low profile in Bingma Division, so that no one knew his identity. This time when Shi Zhengmao brought Brother Shi Dingxuan to Bingma Division, everyone knew that he was the fourth master of Wuchangbo's family.

Because of this, the story of the Shi family being held by the wrong child was revealed again, and it spread within Bingmasi.

The uncle's carriage galloped quickly towards Zhao's residence.

In the carriage, Shi Zhengmao had already told Shi Zhenghe the reason why Shi Dinghao and Young Master Zhao knew each other, as well as the sparring between Shi Dingxuan and Young Master Zhao today.

Seeing that his younger brother was as calm and composed as ever after hearing this, and his expression didn't change much, Shi Zhengmao's heart fluctuated a little.

He found that he really knew too little about his younger brother's family.

Yes, when they came back from the border, they were far from the people in the mansion in many respects, but that didn't mean they were useless.

Wu Lang's martial arts surprised him so much, he was able to tie with Mr. Zhao!

Shi Zhengmao looked at Shi Zhenghe with a smile: "Fourth brother, you taught Wulang's kung fu?"

Shi Zhenghe didn't answer immediately, but looked at the eldest son.

Shi Dingxuan smiled and said: "Uncle, my father taught me the basics of my martial arts, and I was reminded later."

Seeing Shi Dingxuan's vague answer, Shi Zhengmao immediately raised his eyebrows.

This answer is interesting, it was mentioned by someone, by whom? Could it be possible for the fourth brother's family to encounter any adventures at the border?

Shi Zhengmao was quite sensible, so he didn't continue to ask, and looked at Shi Dinghao again.

This kid was able to help arrest Jiang Yang's bandit, and his skills were not far behind.

Seeing Shi Zhengmao looking at him, Shi Dinghao immediately returned a bright smile.

When Shi Zhengmao saw him, he couldn't help laughing: "Jiulang has a good temper, straightforward and open."

Shi Dinghao chuckled: "I also think I'm pretty good, no, our whole family is pretty good."

Seeing him like this, Shi Zhengmao looked at Shi Zhenghe with a smile: "Fourth brother, your two sons are born well."

Shi Zhenghe was also very satisfied with his two sons, but he still said modestly: "They are not good enough, they have to learn from Dingrong and the others."

Shi Zhengmao sighed: "Dingrong took the route of the imperial examination. He took the exam several times, and he is still only a scholar. I don't know when he will be on the list. I regret it now. I shouldn't have let him study in the first place." text."

It was difficult for Shi Zheng and his father and son to answer these words, and it was a little quiet in the carriage.

"Okay, let's not talk about this, after arriving at the Zhao Mansion later"

According to Shi Zhengmao's words, the Zhao residence has arrived.

Shi Zhengmao personally handed the invitation to the concierge of the Zhao residence, and then returned to the carriage to wait.

Shi Dinghao lifted the curtain of the car, looked at the Zhao residence, and asked curiously: "Uncle, what if Governor Zhao doesn't see us?"

Shi Zhengmao glanced at Shi Dingxuan, smiled and said: "We should meet."

If it was just a matter between Jiulang and Young Master Zhao, Governor Zhao would definitely not bother to pay attention to it, but now Goro is able to draw with his proud Young Master Zhao. As his father, Governor Zhao would definitely want to meet Wu Lang.

Sure enough, after waiting for less than a quarter of an hour, the concierge of the Zhao Mansion came to invite Shi Zhengmao and his party into the mansion.

The main courtyard of the Zhao Mansion.

Governor Zhao was looking at the greeting card in his hand when he saw the eldest son walk in: "Is your hand alright?"

Zhao Shengming shook his head: "It was just injured by the shock, the doctor has already prescribed medicine, and it will be fine after a few days of care."

Governor Zhao is not very relieved: "Will you not delay the winter hunting on Laba Festival?"

Zhao Shengming paused for a moment, and then said affirmatively, "Father, don't worry, it won't happen."

Governor Zhao: "This winter hunting is very important to you. It is related to your future. Don't be careless." As he spoke, he still couldn't help saying, "You need to be aware of who you are looking for. If you are injured at this time, If you don't perform well on the winter hunting day, the emperor will think you have a vain reputation."

Zhao Shengming listened humbly, without refuting: "It's my son's carelessness." He knew that the capital was Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, but he really didn't expect to meet a master who was not weaker than himself just by going out.

Seeing that his son was still educated, Governor Zhao looked better, and looked at the greeting card in his hand: "At that time, Jia Goro's kung fu was really comparable to yours?"

Zhao Shengming thought for a while before saying, "Both of us didn't try our best today. It's not easy for my son to win him."

Governor Zhao raised his eyebrows, and snorted: "No wonder you dare to hand over the post directly." Then, he handed the greeting post in his hand to the eldest son.

Zhao Shengming took it over to take a look, and was a little surprised by the Shi family's visit.

Governor Zhao asked again: "Worang was really only sixteen at that time?"

Zhao Shengming nodded again: "It does look a few years younger than me."

Governor Zhao narrowed his eyes: "It's awesome to be able to tie with you at the age of sixteen." Then he stood up, "Let's go, come with me to meet Shi's family."

As soon as the father and son walked out of the room, Zhao Shenghao rushed over like a cannonball.

"Father, big brother, I heard that counterfeit goods have come to our house?"

Governor Zhao stared at his youngest son seriously, and only stared at Zhao Shenghao.

"Father, I was wrong." Zhao Shenghao admitted his mistake decisively.

Governor Zhao: "What's wrong?" The youngest son is too evasive, as soon as he shows a good face, he will immediately turn upside down.

"I shouldn't have said that Tokikuro was a counterfeit."

"This is not an example."

Seeing that Governor Zhao didn't pursue the matter, Zhao Shenghao patted his chest exaggeratedly, and then followed Governor Zhao and Mr. Zhao: "Shi Jiulang dared to come to my house, I must"

Seeing Governor Zhao staring back, he immediately changed his words, "I must treat him well."

Governor Zhao snorted, said nothing, and the father and son went to the living room together.

As soon as the three of them stepped into the living room, Shi Zhengmao stood up with Shi Zheng and his father and son.

"The next official pays homage to Governor Zhao."

Governor Zhao's eyes swept over Shi Zhengmao and his group, and finally landed on Shi Dingxuan. He walked over with a smile, reached out and patted Shi Dingxuan's shoulder, and saw that he was motionless, his expression unchanged, his face The smile deepened.

"You are the Goro who competed with my Shengming, right?"

Shi Dingxuan bowed to salute: "Junior Shi Dingxuan, I have met Governor Zhao."

Governor Zhao nodded with a smile, walked to the main seat and sat down, and then let Shi Zhengmao and others take their seats.

Shi Zhengmao didn't bother, the Zhao family had no friendship with the Shi family, and there was nothing to chat with, so he directly explained the reason: "I came to disturb Governor Zhao at this time, mainly to explain the misunderstanding between my Jiulang and Young Master Zhao. "

Governor Zhao listened quietly, and waited for Shi Zhengmao to finish speaking before smiling to express his indifference.

He had already made it clear that the youngest son had arrested Jiang Yang's bandit, but it was the people from Dali Temple who wanted to curry favor with him, but made a big oolong.

Governor Zhao didn't want to talk about these trivial matters, but looked at Shi Zhenghe who had been silent all this time: "I heard from Gouzi that Zhenghe brother participated in the burning of Beiyan's granary?"

Shi Zhenghe was taken aback by Governor Zhao's title: "Yes."

Shi Zhengmao, who was on the side, saw that his younger brother stopped talking after replying a single word, and couldn't help being a little anxious, so he couldn't help but remind him: "The situation at that time must have been very dangerous, right?"

Shi Zhenghe: "It's okay."

good? ? ? ! ! !

After saying two words, it's gone!

Shi Zhengmao was a little tired, even Zhao's father and son even looked at Shi Zhenghe several times.

Very cold!

Shi Zhengmao racked his brains and asked again: "After the granary was burned, how did you escape, fourth brother?"

Shi Zhenghe: "After the granary was burned, we fell into the siege of the Beiyan army. We couldn't break out of the siege, and finally fell under the bloody swords of the Beiyan people."

Young Master Zhao loved hearing this kind of stories, so he quickly asked, "That's how you survived?"

Before Shi Zhenghe could speak, Shi Dinghao smiled and said: "I know this, my father was stabbed into a bloody hole, it was me and my brother, me and the two of us who went to save my father, by the way, we And by the way, he saved Lord Cai Xiaohou."

Hearing this, Shi Zhengmao, Governor Zhao, and Young Master Zhao were shocked.

"What? You have also rescued Cai Xiaohou?"

Because Shi Zhengmao was too surprised, he asked this directly in front of Zhao's father and son.

Shi Dinghao nodded: "That's right, if he hadn't met us, Young Master Cai would definitely not have survived. You didn't see that, he was already a bloody man at that time." Then he paused, "I don't know how he is now. No, but don’t leave any sequelae.”

Shi Zhengmao suppressed his shock in his heart: "Why didn't you tell your family about this?"

Shi Dinghao shrugged his shoulders, and said simply, "You didn't even ask."

Shi Zhengmao was very tired. If they didn't ask about such a big matter, wouldn't they take the initiative to talk about it?

Governor Zhao looked at Shi Zheng and his father and son, and said with a smile: "It's getting late, and you will definitely not be in time for dinner when you go back, so you can eat at my place later, just in time to tell me about the Northwest."

Hearing this, Shi Zhengmao was a little surprised, but after thinking about it, he understood again. Governor Zhao changed his attitude because the fourth brother's family had saved Lord Cai Xiaohou.

After that, Governor Zhao and Shi Zhengmao chatted about the Northwest affairs, while Shi Dinghao and Young Master Zhao stared at each other.

Thinking of the task his sister entrusted to him, Shi Dinghao waved to Young Master Zhao, signaling him to come to his side.

Seeing that Shi Dinghao took the initiative to look for him, Young Master Zhao was secretly delighted. Just as he wanted to get up, he felt that he had lost face in the past, so he reached out and pointed at the place beside him to let Shi Dinghao come over.

Shi Dinghao rolled his eyes, stood up and walked over.

"what?"

Young Master Zhao looked at Shi Dinghao with his nostrils.

Shi Dinghao glanced at the adults, seeing that they were not paying attention, he quickly pressed Young Master Zhao's raised chin: "Don't look at people with your nostrils, it's very careless."

Young Master Zhao stared, and just about to say a few harsh words, Shi Dinghao quietly motioned him to approach.

"Speak up if you have something to say!"

Young Master Zhao sat still and reserved.

Shi Dinghao was a little speechless: "Your yard is so big, take me for a stroll."

Young Master Zhao was still thinking about his jade cabbage, and it was not easy for him to ask for it in front of his father, so he nodded in agreement.

The two of them didn't dare to disturb the adult who was speaking, and walked out of the living room timidly.

It gets dark early in winter, and the light has already dimmed, but Shi Dinghao is still very interested in wandering around the courtyard of the Zhao family.

Young Master Zhao followed behind him, looking at the jade cabbage on his waist, racking his brains for a reason to come back.

Before he could find a good reason, he saw Shi Dinghao running towards his greenhouse with bright eyes: "Wait, don't run around."

Shi Dinghao ran into the greenhouse, looked at the flowers of different colors in the greenhouse, and exclaimed: "It's winter, and your family has planted so many flowers."

Mr. Zhao looked proud: "Of course, my grandmother likes to enjoy flowers in winter."

Shi Dinghao: "I also like viewing flowers, and so does my sister." He said, looking at Young Master Zhao with piercing eyes.

Young Master Zhao's scalp was numb from his hungry wolf-like eyes: "What are you going to do?"

Shi Dinghao smiled brightly: "Zhao Shenghao, we are not acquainted with each other anymore, give me a few pots of flowers, I will take them back, and let my mother and my sister appreciate them too."

Young Master Zhao shook his head like a rattle: "No, these flowers are my grandmother's favorite. If I give them to you, she will scold me to death."

Shi Dinghao: "I don't want it for nothing." He said, and gave the medicine bottle to Young Master Zhao.

Young Master Zhao looked at the medicine bottle: "What is this?"

Shi Dinghao: "This is the best wound medicine. Every time I practice martial arts and touch it, I rub it. The effect is very good. You take it to your brother and make sure that after a day or two, his arm It doesn't hurt anymore."

Young Master Zhao stared: "How do you know that my brother's arm hurts?"

Shi Dinghao: "Because my brother's arm hurts too. If they beat him like that, can his arm not hurt?" He said, lowering his voice, "Let me tell you, this is a good thing that can't be bought outside. I only give you this ointment because I treat you as a friend, and I won’t give it to anyone else who asks for it!”

After finishing speaking, he gave Young Master Zhao a look of "I've already given you good things, so you're too embarrassed not to give them to me".

Young Master Zhao couldn't believe it: "The effect is really so good?"

Shi Dinghao: "It's not that you don't know where my home is. If the effect is not good, you won't come to me?"

Young Master Zhao nodded: "You are right. If I feel bad, I will go to you to return the product."

Shi Dinghao smiled: "I'm really sincere, I don't want too many flowers from your family, just give me ten pots."

After hearing this, Young Master Zhao rolled his eyes and said, "Ten pots, why don't you just move all my flower houses away?" He said, "I'll give you one pot at most."

"No, there are six people in my family, at least six pots."

"No, two pots, no more."

"Three pots, I'm just a mother and two older sisters, so let them each have a pot."

Young Master Zhao was silent: "You return the jade cabbage to me, and I will give you three pots."

Shi Dinghao was unwilling: "Why are you like this, you lost to me."

Mr. Zhao knew that he was wrong, so he softened his tone: "But this is my first birthday gift. I wear it all the time. We are very affectionate. One of the jade cabbage is for my future daughter-in-law, which means a pair. , Hehe Meimei."

Shi Dinghao was stunned, pulling the jade cabbage on his body, a little tangled: "It's just an accessory, why do you still come up with so many tricks?"

Thinking that his sister was wearing the other one, and thinking that what Zhao Shenghao said was for his future wife, Shi Dinghao immediately said: "The jade cabbage can be returned to you, but you have to exchange it with other things."

Young Master Zhao's eyes lit up, and a triumphant smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Okay, that's the deal."

Shi Dinghao: "Then I will choose flowers."

Under Zhao Xiaogong's earnest eyes, Shi Dinghao chose three pots of winter chrysanthemums that bloomed the most.

After dinner, as soon as Shi Zhengmao and his party left, Young Master Zhao gave the medicine bottle to Young Master Zhao with a proud face.

"Is this what you got in exchange for three pots of top-quality winter chrysanthemums from your grandmother?"

Mr. Zhao looked at his younger brother with some tiredness.

Young Master Zhao nodded: "Brother, try rubbing it on quickly. Jiulang said, if this ointment doesn't work, I can go to Shifu to get back my grandmother's chrysanthemum."

Said, smiling airily.

"Brother, don't keep looking at me like a fool, your brother is smart. Shi Jiulang still wants to plot against me, hmph, he doesn't even look at who I am."

"Whether the ointment is effective or not is entirely up to us. Even if the ointment is good, I can say whether it is good or not. Don't worry, grandma's flowers will definitely come back."

Mr. Zhao was a little stunned, and then sighed: "It's really hard for you, you have such quick wit!"

Young Master Zhao shook his legs triumphantly, and he could imagine Shi Jiulang's frustrating expression.

Mr. Zhao was too lazy to look at his convulsed younger brother, so he turned his attention to the ointment in his hand. Just when the doctor came to change the ointment for him, he asked the doctor to look at it.

After the Zhao family and his party passed by, the treatment of Shi Zheng and his family in the uncle's residence has improved a lot.

The most obvious thing is that in class, no one underestimated the four Shi Dingxuan brothers and sisters anymore.
