The Return of the General to the Field

Chapter 53

When Meng Tao arrived at Pang Mansion, he saw the two lacquered gates under the plaque of lobular red sandalwood hanging high in Pang Mansion, and two majestic stone lions squatting outside the gates, and suddenly became timid.

He secretly cheered himself up, there is nothing to be afraid of, his brother is the side lord of this Pang family!Meng Tao swallowed, and finally mustered up the courage to raise her hand to knock on the door.

"Tap! Tap! Tap!" The iron ring held in the beast's head knocked on the door with a crisp sound.

"Who are you!" A boy came out to knock on the door and asked impatiently when he saw Meng Tao's obviously dressed like a country boy.

"I'm Meng Tao, the father of your Meng Fangjun. You, tell me that his father has something to ask for him."

The servant looked at Meng Tao suspiciously, and saw that he was indeed somewhat similar to one of the meng side lords in the mansion, so he didn't dare to delay, that meng side lord was cruel and not easy to offend.

"Okay, I'll report it for you, just wait a moment." After speaking, he slammed the door shut.

Meng Tao waited outside the door for a long time, and the eyes of passers-by made him very uncomfortable.He clasped his hands misplaced in front of him, and paced back and forth.

"How long will it take to report, this dead brother is still playing tricks on me, let's see how I deal with him!" Meng Tao was already anxious about borrowing money, and wished to see Meng Xing and get the money right away , but found that Meng Xing was hanging out with him, felt that the majesty of being a father had been offended, and was very angry.

There was a heavy rattling sound, and the door was pulled open, and the boy's expression became even more contemptuous, "Our side asked you to go to the back door."

"What, am I his father, telling me to go to the back door?"

"Do you want to go or not!" With a loud "bang—" the door was closed again.

People under the eaves had to bow their heads, Meng Tao cursed and turned to the back door.

"You son of a bitch! The county magistrate has a face, so he looks down on your father, doesn't he?"

The back door was opened, Meng Xing and his servants appeared in the door, Meng Tao immediately taught him a lesson.

Meng Xing just looked at Po Geer outside the door with sarcasm in his eyes.Seeing Meng Xing looking at him indifferently like a buffoon, Meng Tao stretched out his hand to push Meng Xing in embarrassment.

Meng Xing's servant quickly grabbed Meng Tao's hand and flung it away.

"My dear dad, I'm afraid you don't know who you're talking to! I'm afraid you didn't take what I said before. For the sake of your age, let me say it again. Except you and I There is nothing left of this inescapable blood relationship. So don't shamelessly talk about your identity as my father!"

"Okay! Okay! I, Meng Tao, have raised a white-eyed wolf for more than ten years! I have worked so hard to send you to the position of the county magistrate, and you will be better off, so you don't need a father, right?" Meng Tao I was so angry that my chest was tight.

"My dear father, how shameless are you? It's my ability to be the half master of this Pang Mansion. What does it have to do with you? If I didn't fight myself, I don't know where I died. Two You refused to take me back years ago, so now I have no friendship with you. You can only use the remaining ten years of nurturing as an argument, otherwise you think I will let you hit me Gathering benefits everywhere!"

"I didn't do that for your own good. When I picked you up back then, who wanted you? Can you wear gold and silver like today and have someone serve you?"

"For my good? For my good! You know for whom it is good!" Meng Xing suddenly broke out, and her pretty face suddenly distorted.Then he seemed to remember that such arrogance would damage his image and be inappropriate, his face relaxed, but the resentment in his eyes was still strong, as if he had forgotten that Meng Tao sent him to Pang's mansion, and he did not object.

"Okay, just for the sake of calling you daddy, tell me quickly if you have anything to do, before I'm impatient."

Meng Tao's face was livid, "I'm here to ask for money, I'm here to ask for money..." He hinted to himself over and over in his heart.Whether Meng Tao is willing to admit it or not, in fact, he has already felt that the Meng Xing in front of him is no longer the little brother who is pulling the corners of his skirt; ; No longer the little brother who was crying and begging himself to pick him up like a frightened rabbit with snot and tears.

"Your brother has an accident. He owes the gambling house 500 taels of silver. Your father and I can't even get together that much money..."

"So you thought of me, didn't you?" Meng Xing interrupted Meng Tao before he started crying pitifully. "That's right, you don't give me to the master just for your good son and how much money you want in the future!"

"Meng Xing, do you still feel wronged? You have to speak with your conscience!"

"I'm not wronged! Xiaoyun, give the money to my father."

"That's right!" Meng Tao immediately smiled.

The servant standing next to Meng Xing took out a money bag from his arms and threw it to Meng Tao.

"Hey~ Be careful, be careful!"

Meng Tao took it and opened the purse to have a look, "Brother Xing, why is it so small? Your brother owes 500 taels!"

"How much do you want? Isn't that what you gave at the beginning?" Meng Xing helped Bu Yao on his head, feeling satisfied. Why did he believe in this good father? A small amount of money can make others look up to you.

"Xiaoyun, close the door!"

"Hey!!! Meng Xing, you bastard, unfilial son, why are you treating your father like this? You're going to be hit like this!"

"Crack——" the wooden door was pulled open, Meng Tao just wanted to scold, but when he realized that it was two tall guards, he immediately shut up.

"Hurry up, or don't blame us for being rude! The mansion of County Magistrate Pang is yours to mess around with."

******

"I knew you were unreliable, bastard!"

"Meng Anguo, don't you have to lose face! You can, you can go! What can I do to raise such a heartless money-loser."

Meng Anguo and Meng Tao complained to each other. Seeing that the ten-day deadline was approaching, the money was still so short, and the family was gloomy.

"Hmph~, what should I do, Wen Xiang can't find him, and I don't know what happened? Or, his father, you go...to find Brother He!"

"Meng Anguo, why are you so worried! You don't know what that little hoof treats me? Look for Xia He, I can't afford to lose this man!"

"Shame or death! He is your brother after all, it's only natural for you to look for him!"

Xiao Xueer is fifteen months old, quietly like a little fairy child carved from ice.He can walk, but he doesn't like to walk, because he wobbles when he walks, which makes the adults laugh.But the more he didn't like to leave, the more Xia He and Li Laoyao seized the opportunity to let him go.Then when Ding was a little older, he knew that paying attention to his image would make Xia He, a father, a lot less fun to tease his son.

This morning, Meng Wu went to transplant rice seedlings, Xia He had nothing to do, so he put Xiao Xueer on the ground to tease him to walk.

"Come on, good boy, come to daddy!" Xia He teased him with a puppet that looked like a tiger.Maybe Daddy is quite meaningful to Xiao Xueer.Xiao Xue'er stretched out her arms like two lotus roots, and walked towards Xia He flickeringly.

As she walked, Xiao Xueer's feet were unsteady, and she sat on the ground with her buttocks on the ground, her small face wrinkled together.

"Hahaha——" It was not easy to find the expression on his son's little face, Xia He smiled unkindly before he let go of his worries.

"Hey, you, Huai!" Xiao Xueer opened her mouth, speaking clearly for the first time.

Xia He's heart seemed to have been hit hard, "Oh~ Xiao Xue'er, call again, call it to Dad."

"Wow~"

"Good boy, Xiao Xue'er is awesome! Let's call again." Xia He kissed Xiao Xue'er's smooth little face in surprise.But Xiao Xueer didn't want to talk to this stupid father anymore.

"Tuk! Tuk! Tuk!"

"Who is it!" Xia He was a little upset about interrupting his interaction with his son, he hugged Xiao Xue'er to the youngest Li, and then went to open the door.

"Hey, good! Our little Xue'er can call someone, right? Come and call..."

"Zhila—" Xia He just opened the door, and immediately wanted to close it.

"Hey, Brother He, what's the matter with you!" Meng Tao quickly supported Xia He with his hands, preventing Xia He from closing the door.

"Tsk!" Xia He rolled his eyes indistinctly.

"Da Tao, I don't have time to break up with you, if you have anything to say, hurry up."

"It's something, Ah He, why don't you let me in first?" Meng Tao put on a smiling face.

"It's here, if you don't want to say it, I will close the door!"

"Don't! Hey, Ah He, you also know that Wen Xiang owed gambling debts, and I had no choice but to find you. I know you are doing well now, and Wu boy loves you again. A few hundred taels of silver is not enough for you. Shouldn't it be difficult? Anyway, Wen Xiang is your half-brother, and you can't bear to see him suffer..."

Xia He admired himself for being able to listen to this passage calmly.I don't feel angry, I just feel funny.

"Da Tao, what capacity do you use to say such things to me? If it's from a neighbor or a villager, I don't care about lending you a tael. If it's my father, forgive me a copper coin." Neither will be given to you."

After saying that, Xia He slammed the door shut and fastened it.

Really, who gave the face!

Meng Tao, who was shut outside the door, trembled with anger, one and two, all of them were white-eyed wolves.He was about to start cursing, but was stared at by the mocking eyes of passers-by on the road and fled away.

In the backyard of the Pang Mansion, under an apricot tree, a brother in a crescent-colored dress was embroidering.

"came back!"

"Oh, my brother is so excited."

"The weather is fine today, why, come and sit with me?"

Meng Xing walked over and sat on the stone bench, drinking tea from a small white porcelain cup.

"You are really cruel. You have ruined your promising little brother by playing tricks. How does it feel good to see your father begging so hard?" Meng Zhaodi seemed to be chatting about family matters.

"Hmph, it seems like you never thought about strangling that younger brother of yours."

"Why should I strangle him?" Meng Zhaodi seemed not to understand the sarcasm in Meng Xing's words.

"Meng Zhaodi, it's interesting for you to pretend to show me. Who burned the scar on your hand? Not for Meng Shuwen, why did your father send you here to be a child?"

"But isn't my life much better now than before? I should thank them." Meng Zhaodi didn't have Meng Xing's indignation at all.

"That's because you came at a good time. I cleaned up the back house, and I didn't enjoy it for long, so you came here to pick up a big deal."

"That's really thank you brother."

"Heh, what's there to thank? No one is the same, not you, but someone else. Anyway, you have the same surname as me, and you are safe." Meng Xing stood up, with his back to Meng Zhaodi, as if muttering to himself, but it was enough for Meng Zhaodi to listen. clear.

"Master!" The servants around Meng Zhaodi were a little out of sorts.

"There are no tigers in the mountains, and monkeys are kings. The master doesn't want to care about the rights and wrongs of the back house, but the master is good-looking but doesn't take the brothers in the back house seriously. But after cleaning up a group of people who the master hates, he thinks he is himself." Terrible!"
