Chapter 139 Abducting Little Bun
"I want to buy something."
"What are you buying?"
The more secretive he was, the more curious Ling Wu became. Yan Chengrui and Ling Jingxuan also pricked up his ears, his curiosity was pushed to the highest point.
Facing their almost scorching gazes, Ling Wen lowered his head and twisted his fingers and said, "Well, I promised to buy silver earrings for my grandma a long time ago. It's rare that I can go to the county with Daddy this time. I just want to fulfill my promise, buy a pair of silver earrings for grandma, and buy something for grandpa and second uncle."
I can't tell, he didn't paint big cakes this time, but really wanted to buy something for Ling Wang. Back then, they seriously doubted whether they were willing to do so. Ling Jingxuan and Yan Chengrui raised their eyebrows in surprise, and then another It's gratifying, usually, although he is a bit stingy, it is not difficult to see from this incident that he is still generous to his family, you know, he himself is not willing to spend a copper coin.
"Hehe... Our family's Xiaowen has grown up and knows that he loves his grandma. It's not bad."
Ling Jingxuan smiled brightly like a flower, not to mention how happy he was, Yan Chengrui at the side also gave him a thumbs up, Ling Wen's cute little face turned red, and he became even more uncomfortable, Xiao Baozi looked back and forth at them, turned around He ran out with a bang, and came back with a piggy bank of the same size after about a few minutes. fell to the ground.
"Xiao Wu, what are you doing? Copper coins are rolling everywhere, what a pity if they go missing?"
Seeing this, Ling Wen hurriedly squatted down and picked up all the copper coins scattered on the ground, his tone was filled with naked distress, those were all money.
"I also want to buy things for grandma. Brother, if you buy silver earrings for grandma, I will buy silver hairpins for grandma. If we each buy one, grandma will be different."
He doesn't care about the money everywhere, Ling Wu said eloquently.
"Then you don't need to waste money like this, do you? Look, the ground is full of money. Let's see how you put it back later."
Although it was not his own money, seeing his behavior of not cherishing money, Ling Wen couldn't help scolding him with a stern face, but Ling Wu didn't care at all, scratched his head and said mischievously : "Oh brother, I am in a hurry to pour out the money. Don't be angry. At worst, I won't do this next time."
"Well, it can't be like this in the future, although our family is rich now, we can't forget the hard times in the past, we must always remember the bitterness and think about the sweetness, otherwise we will lose all our wealth. "
Unable to stand up to his younger brother's acting like a baby, Ling Wen nodded, seizing the opportunity to instill in him a sense of thrift, Ling Wu nodded obediently, as for whether he listened to it or not, probably only he himself knows, seeing this, Ling Jingxuan Yan Shengrui Shaking their heads at the same time, I'm afraid they will never want to see the stingy buns spending money indiscriminately in this life.
"Daddy, you haven't told me how much money I should bring."
After lecturing his younger brother, Ling Wen pulled him to walk in front of them again, his little face was full of confusion, he had only seen silver earrings but never bought them, he probably knew that they should be expensive, but he was not sure how much it would cost.
"That's it."
Ling Jingxuan pulled them over and sat between him and Yan Shengrui, pretending to be contemplative, and whetted their appetite before continuing: "First of all, I want to declare that I don't mean to ask you to spend money recklessly, Xiaowen Xiaowu, whether it's Whenever we go out, we should bring as much money as possible with us for emergencies. In case of any emergency, we can stay in danger, right? Since you want to use your own money to buy things to honor the Lord Nursing them, then I will definitely not help you, so you must bring enough money, and, now that my aunt and cousin are also at our house, shouldn't you as the host also express it?"
Before the start, it was inevitable that his son would talk about him again, so Ling Jingxuan made a special statement to induce him to learn how to put money on him step by step. Exquisite and cute little things, really waiting to hold back to buy?As long as you have the first time, it will be much easier to spend money in the future.
"Then bring ten taels of silver notes?"
Frowning in distress, Ling Wen asked tentatively. In his opinion, ten taels of silver was already an astronomical figure, although it seemed that he was a proper little local tyrant now.
"Xiaowen, ten taels of silver seems like a lot to you, but have you ever thought about the value of what you want to buy? Leaving aside grandma's silver earrings, what are you planning to buy, Master and Second Uncle? ? Since you have a rare trip to the county, you can’t just pack two packets of snacks for them and you’re done, right?”
Ling Jingxuan raised his forehead, he didn't know if a woman's jewelry was worth much, ten taels of silver was too little, how could he tempt him to buy more things then?
"That's not it? You can't bring 100 taels of silver, can you? Daddy, don't bully me. I don't understand anything. How can silver earrings be so expensive? Although I haven't decided what to buy for my grandfather and second uncle, But even if those things are worth about the same as silver earrings, they still cost less than ten taels of silver, so don't fool me."
The tone of his voice suddenly rose, and Ling Wen looked at his father seriously suspiciously, ten taels of silver was quite a lot, if it was saved a bit, it would be enough for an ordinary family to eat for a year.
"Haha." Hearing this, Ling Jingxuan's forehead went dark, while Yan Shengrui laughed so hard that he knew that his wife could not be his son's opponent, no, the answer was revealed.
"Smile, smile, why don't you laugh to death!"
Ling Jingxuan, full of displeasure, decisively vented his resentment on the man, and the latter laughed even more exaggeratedly. Ling Jingxuan gave him a hard look, turned to his son and said as calmly as possible: "I didn't let you spend all of it, bring more money." It's good."
"Why do you bring so much? What a pity if you lose it?"
Ling Wen still frowned unhappily, he always felt that his father had some conspiracy.
"Ahem?? Then you don't want to buy something for yourself? For example, better clothing materials, pens, inks, papers and inkstones, etc. Our family is not short of money now, and the decent clothes can make Gao take a look, right? ?”
"Irrelevant people, why do you want him to look up to you? Daddy, there is nothing wrong with our family being rich, but you have earned the money so hard. How can I spend it carelessly?"
"Isn't Daddy's yours? You're welcome to spend whatever you want!"
"That's not okay. Who would think that I have too much money? Daddy, you are deliberately fooling me and want me to spend more money."
"Forehead"
The result of the contest between the father and son, no need to guess, Ling Wen must have won the victory again, no matter when and where, as long as money is involved, Ling Jingxuan, the old man, will not want to win.
"Button.
There was a sudden knock on the door, and the father and son, who were staring at each other, had to stop. Ling Wen looked at the coffee table and the money on the ground, and seemed to realize that it was impossible to put them away so quickly, so he could only put them there temporarily, then turned and ran outside The door is open.
"I said you're fine, why did you kidnap him? You know he's stingy, but you ask him to bring 100 taels of silver with you, isn't that cutting his flesh?"
Glancing at the frustrated Ling Jingxuan, Yan Shengrui shook his head amusedly, he had to talk about everything step by step, he came too suddenly, no wonder his son would fight back with all his strength.
Telling Ling Wen that money matters are more tiring than work, Ling Jingxuan slumped on the chair and curled his lips weakly: "I saw that he had the idea of using silver ingots, and he wanted to take advantage of the victory to chase after him, who knew?? This is a sting When will my son's temper be cured?"
To say that their family now has tens of thousands of taels in savings alone, and he himself is considered a small local tyrant. In the countryside, is this enough money?Why is my son still so stingy and reluctant to spend?Could it be that his teaching for nearly three months is really useless?
Thinking of this, Ling Jingxuan couldn't help being hit hard, why is it so difficult to train him to be the second generation patriarch.
"Hehe...don't worry, just take your time. Hasn't he made progress today? At least he has taken the initiative to think of spending money to buy things for his family. Don't expect so much."
Reaching out to pat him on the shoulder, Yan Shengrui comforted him lovingly.
"Oh?? That's the only way to go."
Who made their values differ so much?Ling Jingxuan sighed helplessly. At the same time, the two buns who went to open the door came in with Chu Yan. Seeing the money all over the floor, Chu Yan raised his eyebrows in doubt, but didn't ask anything, and shouted respectfully : "Uncle Sheng, Uncle Ling."
"You're welcome, Yan'er, sit down."
Yan Shengrui nodded lightly, Ling Jingxuan swept away his dispiritedness, pointed to the chair beside him, Chu Yan nodded and thanked softly, and walked over with the two buns, after they sat down, Ling Jingxuan smiled and asked: "Is there something wrong with Yan'er?" ?”
Usually at this time, isn't he reading all the time?
"Well, Uncle Sheng, Uncle Ling, I heard that you are going to the county seat tomorrow, can you take me with you?"
Taking a careful look at the silent Yan Shengrui, Chu Yan asked a little bit coyly, since he and his father came to Datong Town, they almost never leave the gate. This time, he can come to Yuehua Villa. He was really happy. When he heard that they were going to the county seat, he couldn't help but want to follow him to see it. It was hard to hold back the idea. After obtaining his father's consent, he immediately ran over.
"Of course, if Yan'er goes together, he can help me take care of my brothers. I'm too happy, how can I not want to?"
Seeing his little face full of expectation although he tried his best to conceal it, Ling Jingxuan agreed without thinking. What kind of harm has he experienced, he is only nine years old, but he looks more mature and stable than those fifteen or sixteen year olds, if his little bun is like this, it's no wonder he doesn't feel sorry for him to death.
"Really?! Thank you, Uncle Ling, I will definitely take a good look at my younger brothers."
Hearing this, Chu Yan's little peach eyes burst into light of surprise and excitement, and he thought it would be a waste of time, did he expect that? ?The young and handsome face that hadn't fully bloomed was covered with a sunny smile. He was really happy to go to the county with them.
"Hehe." Looking at him with a smile, Ling Jingxuan turned his head and gave Yan Shengrui a look, as if to say, you, as an uncle, also expressed that, but the latter just shrugged and glanced lightly at the smiling man Chu Yan is done.
"Daddy, you really lied to me. Brother Yan said that the silver earrings are very cheap, not expensive at all."
Suddenly, after chatting with Chu Yan for a while, Ling Wen pointed to Ling Jingxuan's face full of accusations, and he just said, ten taels of silver is already a lot, how could it not be enough?
"Eh?? Are you sure you have the same values?"
Ling Jingxuan's forehead darkened, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching. He dared to use his head to guarantee that Chu Yan's so-called cheap buns would definitely hurt his heart.
"What's the difference? Daddy will fool us, Xiao Wu, don't listen to Daddy, let's bring ten taels of silver bills, and a silver ingot and copper plate. The rest of the money should be saved?"
Unhappily looking at his father, Ling Wen decisively took Xiao Baozi's hand, and knelt down to help him put the copper coins all over the floor into the piggy bank. Yan, the three squatted on the ground and kept stuffing the scattered money into the piggy bank. Ling Jingxuan, who was once again rejected by his son, shook his head helplessly. The abduction tactic completely failed!
