Chu Yunli's business is now big, and there are many more workers in the family than before. He Changshan said a word, and several people came forward and dragged He's father to the warehouse.
He's father was old, and there were many people pulling him, so he couldn't struggle at all. He couldn't move his hands and feet, but his mouth was never idle.
He Changshan squinted his eyes, thought of something, and stopped everyone: "It's up to me, I'd better lock him in the wing over there."
For He's father, no matter where he was imprisoned, it showed that his son was no longer willing to listen to him. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, and he frequently uttered dirty words.
He Changshan was not angry at all. He dismissed everyone and turned to look at Chu Yunli: "Hui Niang, I didn't lock him up in the warehouse, not because I wanted to be nice to him, but because I was afraid of being criticized."
Chu Yunli nodded: "Since he is taken care of by us here, there is no need to pay him monthly money."
Mentioning this matter, He Changshan felt a little uncomfortable. He had known for a long time that his father didn't like him. The reason why he still gave him monthly money was because he wanted to fulfill his filial piety. Of course, he also wanted to use the money to eliminate disasters.
But now... Lou Huiniang is gone, and he is unwilling to accommodate these family members anymore.
In other words, his husband and wife are harmonious, his children are sensible, he has plenty of money, and his life is peaceful and happy. He doesn't mind giving some benefits to the people around him. But it's different now. He can't live well, so why should he consider other people's moods?
"I should have stopped giving it a long time ago." After He Changshan said this, he said to his father who was cursing in the side room: "If you curse again, dinner will be gone."
Naturally, He's father didn't believe it and said again: "You unfilial son, I will drive you out of the house and make you be despised by everyone..."
He Changshan whispered: "Don't give him food. He is so hungry that he has no strength, so he will naturally stop."
He Changsheng from the town did not wait for his father to come and made another trip in person. He did not come directly to the door, but went nearby to secretly inquire about the He family. Offended that the couple was very busy, the father from the town stayed after his arrival.
Take care of yourself.
When he was still thinking about whether to come to test the house, the rich man next to He Changshan arrived.
He Changsheng didn't feel that he was going too far. As He Changshan's brother, He Changshan should have thought of him when something good happened. He came to ask for help but refused to give it to He Changshan. It was He Changshan who was being unkind.
He Changshan didn't want to say much, he just said: "Brother, I've been very busy recently and I'm in a bad mood. I know how you and my second brother treated me. I didn't mind letting you pick up some petty profits in the past.
, but now I have changed my mind, there is no way you two can get any benefit from me. If you still don't stop, don't blame me for being rude."
He Changsheng was stunned: "Why is this so?"
The third brother is not close to him, and he knows it in his heart. If the three brothers did something together in the past, the third brother must have provided the most money. Although he did not benefit them openly, he still took some of it privately.
cheap.
It was just such a small thing, but it was nothing compared to He Changshan's huge family fortune.
But listening to what the third brother said, it seemed that he had given up on them.
He Changsheng looked confused and had no idea what was happening.
He Changshan said coldly: "Anyway, I have all the good things to say. If you don't listen, you will suffer the consequences."
In fact, the He family is not poor, and they can barely get by. It's just that this person can't help but want to save more money. Seeing his third brother like this, He Changsheng knew that this time his plan was going to fail, and he didn't dare to offend anyone too much.
He said a few nice words, turned around and left.
Before leaving, I didn't even have time to ask my old father how he was doing.
As He Changshan said before, as long as his father curses, he will not be able to eat the next meal.
Father He didn't know it and scolded him very fiercely on the first day. Later he found out that he really had no food to eat. He felt that his son was unfilial and did not want to compromise, so he continued to scold him the next day. As a result, no one brought him food or water all day long.
He was so hungry that he almost fainted. He couldn't curse anymore, but he learned the lesson. After that day, he stayed alone in the house, waiting for three meals a day.
The family is very busy, and the food is not very luxurious. He's father did not suffer hardship in the town. He has the two taels of silver that his youngest son pays every month, and he can also make toothpaste every three days. Several grandchildren
Thinking about the money he has on hand, he must be more obedient and well-behaved. But here, the three siblings are usually busy with their own affairs, obeying their father's words and ignoring their grandfather.
Father He found that when he got here, he was really not as comfortable as he was in the town.
On this day, He Changshan went to deliver meals as usual.
He knew that his father hated him and was unwilling to let his wife and children get close to him. Therefore, he had already put down his words. No one was allowed to enter the room except him, and he personally came to deliver the food.
Father He could already get along with his son calmly, and since he had something to say, his expression became even gentler: "Third brother, you are so busy all day long and have to sell so many goods every day. It's not good for me, an old man, to be here.
Excuse me. Let's do this. You can find a carriage to take me back."
He Changshan placed the food in front of him: "That won't work. My brother-in-law has just started a business. If you go back and mess with it, how can the business be successful?"
Father He hurriedly said: "I was wrong at first, and I didn't really mean to do what I said. These days, I have thought about it carefully, and your words are right. At my age, I shouldn't get involved in the relationship between the three of you brothers.
From now on, I will just be a deaf and mute family man, no longer minding my own business."
A mocking smile appeared on He Changshan's lips.
Seeing his expression, Father He continued: "I don't know anyone in this city, and life is really difficult. If you really go out, it will be embarrassing for you. I grew up in the town, and everyone I know is there. You still
Just give me money every month as before, and when I die one day, you can go back and show me mourning, and that will end our relationship as father and son."
He Changshan raised his eyes and looked at him: "I can't live well, why can you rely on me to live a comfortable life? Going back to the town is just a daydream!"
Father He always felt weird when he heard his son's words. The third child had done a lot of business recently. Through the door panel, he heard his grandson say that many merchants from other places came for their goods and bought them with a lot of money.
If the goods are not available, the money will be saved at home like running water... The third son and his wife are harmonious, have children, and are making a lot of money. Isn't this a good life?
However, he was attracted by his son's last words: "I just want to go back. If you leave me here, we, father and son, will look at each other and hate each other. What good will it do to you?"
"I can't let you go back. Please be honest, otherwise you will starve again." He Changshan stood up: "You are my father, and I don't want to abuse you. Don't make me angry!"
Father He: "..."
He still can't go back!
He didn't want to be locked up in that room, so he mentioned it to his son many times. Later, when he had the opportunity, he mentioned it to his grandson and daughter-in-law, but they all rejected it.
He thought for a long time and felt that his son was unwilling to give him monthly money... He didn't have to do it! There were two sons in the town, and they would not be short of food and drink for him. Even if he had no money, the two sons should be filial to him.
he!
Of course, I might be secretly disliked by my son. But it’s better than not being able to make a step here.
On this day, Chu Yunli came back from outside, and he proposed that he wanted to go back, even if he didn't need any money.
Chu Yunli said bluntly: "If you don't like my parents' family, you will definitely cause trouble for them when you go back. Do you think I will let you go back?"
Father He: "...I won't cause trouble for them!"
"I don't believe it." Chu Yunli said plausibly: "You said this yourself, and I didn't slander you. You are my father-in-law. Even if you lied to others, I can only break my teeth and swallow it. So,
You should stay here and wait for us to show your respect!"
Father He: "..." I really can't go back?
He wanted to send a message back to the town and ask his two sons to pick him up. Unfortunately, he could only talk to these people in the yard, and how could He Changshan's family send him a message?
However, the He Changsheng brothers also wanted to come over to pick up their father, but they refused.
He Changshan had a good reason. His two brothers had taken care of his father for so many years, and now it was his turn.
Besides, in the eyes of everyone in the town, He's father was picked up by his younger son to enjoy his blessings. He Changshan refused to let him go. No one said he was wrong and even praised him for his filial piety.
In the blink of an eye, half a year has passed.
He's father has stopped making troubles because he would go hungry if he made troubles. He has lost weight in the past six months.
Chu Yunli's business is on the right track. There are more and more merchants from out of town. The workshop is always busy and can produce as many goods as it wants. However, this cannot be rushed. The workshop is very busy and is often recruiting people.
But she herself is not too busy.
No matter whether he is busy or not, there are some things that Chu Yunli never lets go of.
On this day, Chu Yunli had just returned home and found a middle-aged man of short stature waiting there. Seeing her carriage appear, he hurriedly came over and said, "Master, there is something going on over there. That's it.
The day before yesterday, Zhang Mazi accompanied his daughter-in-law back to her parents' home, and even took the children away, leaving her alone. There were guests in his yard, and they stayed for more than half an hour before leaving."
Chu Yunli raised his eyebrows: "What kind of guest?"
The man came clearly prepared and replied in a low voice: "They are Zhang Mazi's fair-weather friends. We live in the same alley with him. His wife died of illness last month. He himself is not very reliable. The child was picked up by his daughter-in-law's family. Now,
Alone. By the way, he is a man, in his thirties!"
Chu Yunli asked: "What do you want to say?"
"Just...Pan Panyun is alone at home today. Zhou Hongpi was a little anxious when he went out and was still tightening his belt."
Chu Yunli: "..."
She knew that Pan Panyun would definitely not be willing to stay in Zhang Mazi's home, and Zhang Mazi would not let her go. Many things would definitely happen during this period. But she did not expect that Pan Panyun would run away.
Go steal someone!
"Keep an eye on it and report later if there is any news."
After another half month of this, Chu Yunli was sure that Pan Panyun really had an adulterer, and then came to the door in person.
This alley is not big, but the families who can live in it are not the poorest in the city. Zhang Mazi usually sneaks around. Although his reputation is not very good, he is very good at making money and can support his family better than many people.
, if Pan Panyun doesn't mess around, he can live a peaceful life.
At least, if you follow such a person, you will never be bullied.
The person who opened the door was Liu Ye. She obviously knew Chu Yunli. When she opened the door and saw Renhe, she was slightly stunned: "Who are you looking for, madam?"
Chu Yunli had already looked past her towards Pan Panyun under the eaves: "I have something to say to her."
