Boss, He’s Becoming a Father

Chapter 17: The Prodigal Son (17)

    The middle-aged man only felt that things seemed to be different from the expected script, but the officials beside him were already shouting: "Protect adults!"

    Most of the group surrounded the middle-aged man, while others ran after Shao Yu.

    But Shao Yu is obviously an old man, and it seems that his walking speed is not fast, but in three or two times, his shadow disappears.

    The middle-aged man looked down at the thing in his arms. It was a booklet. He didn't take it seriously at first, and even suspected which scholar he was sending poems to, so he opened it and read it at will. After a glance, he was stunned.

     

    "No need to chase, please come over, Master Wei."

    Those officials couldn't catch up with Shao Yu, but when they saw the prefect calling to stop, they stopped immediately.

    Before doing things, Shao Yu carefully inquired about the prefect, and knew that the other party had only arrived here three months ago. He had only been here for a short time, so he probably wouldn't have anything to do with Zhang Meng.

     

    Although this prefect has not yet made a name for himself, Shao Yu checked many of his actions and immediately judged that this is a good official who really wants to do practical things.

    Zhang Meng ran rampant in the village, and he was considered a bully. If he could pull up the evil forces behind him at this time, it would be a very respectable political achievement for this adult, so Shao Yu would have Today's move.

    Shao Yu is so arrogant that he is not afraid that the other party will find him, and he can also be sure that the other party will find him.

    After returning home, Shao Xiaocao was still making lanterns, and Mrs. Wang seemed to be preparing luggage for Shao Yu in the house.

      She is also very worried about Shao Dabao's life and death.

    "Live to see people, die to see corpses, no matter what, bring him back." Shao Yu said.

    Shao Xiaocao was envious of her brother at this time. Although Shao Yu treats her very well, she still remembers what Wang said, the water splashed by the married daughter will wait for her to marry. She can no longer trouble her mother's family. She secretly said that if one day she died in a foreign land, she didn't know if her father would bring her back.

    Seeing her sad expression, Shao Yu said, "Don't worry, Daddy will always be your support."

     

    Shao Yu touched the top of her hair, looked at the lantern in her hand, and asked softly, "Do you like making lanterns?"

    Shao Xiaocao hesitated. For her, the word "like" is undoubtedly a luxury. Ever since she can remember, she has seen the situation in this family become more and more serious. Out of filial piety, she took the responsibility The whole family is responsible.

    When she was young, she saw the red headbands worn by other little girls, and she envied them, but she never made such a request to her parents. She gradually hid all her preferences and became a family member A tool man who is vital but doesn't have any attention.

    Seeing her look a little confused, Shao Yu asked gently, "If you don't have to do anything, and your mother and I don't need you to worry about it, then what do you want to do?"

    Shao Xiaocao looked around, but his eyes finally settled on the lantern in his hand.

    The habit of many years has long been transformed into a hobby through daily practice, and it has become a part of her that cannot be let go.

    "I may still want to make lanterns." Shao Xiaocao felt that his voice seemed far away.

    "In order to make money?" Shao Yu asked curiously. Facing his daughter, he seemed to have endless patience.

    The daughter is different from the son, the son is greedy and lazy, and the daughter is obedient and filial, so different education methods should be used, Shao Yu said in his heart, and would never admit that he prioritizes women over men.

    Shao Xiaocao was stunned for a moment, but finally shook her head and said, "I want to make the most beautiful lantern, one that people can like at a glance."

    It seemed that she was ashamed to admit her inner thoughts. After speaking, Shao Xiaocao couldn't help lowering her head, and some dared not look at Shao Yu.

    Shao Yu laughed and boasted: "It's a good idea."

    Shao Xiaocao raised her head, seeing her father's eyes full of support, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, the seed in her heart seemed to burst out quietly.

     

    "You have ambition, don't steal, don't rob, and don't do bad things. Saying it will only make me proud, and how can I be ashamed." Shao Yu said with a smile.

    Shao Xiaocao lowered her head, the corners of her mouth twitched.

     

    Shao Xiaocao looked stiff, Shao Yu said, "Do you remember what I told you? It doesn't matter what others say, the most important thing is what you think."

    Shao Xiaocao listened to her heart and looked at Mrs. Wang, who was talking sarcastically, and reiterated very solemnly: "I want to make the most beautiful lantern."

    The girl's eyes seemed to have fallen into diamonds, glittering, such scorching heat, Wang Shi took a look, and felt a little afraid to look directly.

    Even so, she still said: "If you marry someone in the future, if you still don't take care of you, it will see if your husband's family takes care of you."

    Shao Xiaocao was stunned for a moment, and her face seemed to be covered with a shadow.

    Shao Yu said: "Your mother, your mother-in-law, they are all other people, and their thoughts are not as important as your inner thoughts."

    Inspirational Shao Xiaocao clenched his fists and couldn't help but said to Wang again: "I want to make the most beautiful lantern!"

    Seems to be shocked by the firmness in her daughter's eyes, Wang opened her mouth, but did not continue to speak sarcastic words.

     "Do what you want, start from now, don't leave any regrets." Shao Yu said.

    "Now? But at home..." Shao Xiaocao wanted to say that the family needed money, so even if she had an idea in her heart, she planned to help the family get through the difficulties first.

    "Providing a family is an adult's business. You are still a child. You don't have to worry about the family affairs. Just do what you like." Shao Yu said.

    Shao Xiaocao sacrificed too much for her family, and the burden on her shoulders was really too heavy.

    Wang wanted to say something, but Shao Yu glanced at her and said, "I will be responsible for supporting the family, don't bully your daughter."

    Wang looked at the father and daughter, wondering what he was thinking, and after a long time he said, "Okay."

    Shao Yu gave careful advice, and gave Wang Shi and Shao Xiaocao a sum of money respectively to ensure that the mother and daughter live a worry-free life, and they set off the next day.

    He left Qingzhou City on the front foot, and a team of officials came to the door on the back foot.

    When Mrs Wang saw that she was looking for Shao Yu, and these officials were not good-looking, she was immediately dumbfounded. Shi was suddenly frightened, and he didn't know what was going on. He hesitated for a long time and couldn't utter a complete sentence.

     

    The more fierce they asked, the more afraid Wang became, and the chain reaction made him even more speechless.

    Seeing Wang's like this, Shao Xiaocao stood up and said with courage, "Daddy has gone far away. If the poor lords have something important, you might as well wait for Daddy to come back."

     

    Although Shao Xiaocao was very scared in the face of these people, she still stood in front of her mother and said, "You can find out about my brother just by inquiring a little, my father. I went out to bring my brother back."

     

    Seeing this, the official couldn't help but say: "Your brother's body was washed away by the flood, where can you find it, it's a complete waste of effort."

    Wang Shi, who had been unable to speak for a long time, suddenly retorted: "Don't talk nonsense, my son must still be alive, he will not die!"

     

    Shao Xiaocao said immediately: "Master, my mother is in a trance after losing her brother. If she says something unpleasant, please bear with me."

    The official's expression softened a little and said: "When your father comes back, let him take the initiative to come to the government. If it annoys the adults, your whole family will not want to eat good fruit!"

     

    She was full of panic, as if a catastrophe was imminent, and said: "I said where did your father get the money, it turned out that something happened outside."

    It's about his father, Shao Xiaocao is always very confident, saying: "My father doesn't steal or rob, even if he makes money, he earns it with his true ability. Doing random things outside will implicate us."

    "Where will he get the money if he doesn't do anything? He must have stolen something from someone else." How come you don't even take money with you when you go out, it turns out that you have money hidden on your body, and this **** just used this amount of money to send us away."

    Shao Xiaocao didn't think his father was that kind of person, and thought of what the official looked like when he left, and said, "If they can leave so easily, they should be looking for their father for something else, of course. Not because my father did something wrong."

      said.

    The more she thought about it, the more angry she became. She believed in her heart that her husband must have obtained a large amount of money in a shameful way. When she thought that she only had so much money, she couldn't help but want to scold Shao Yu. meal.

    Shao Xiaocao wanted to continue to defend her father, but Wang Shi glared at her and said, "You are not a good thing, and you even betrayed your father and told those people where your father went. !"

    Shao Xiaocao suddenly felt aggrieved and said, "Dad is going to find my brother, everyone on this street knows, and there is no way to hide it."

    Although Wang understands this, she still can't help but want to anger her daughter, and thinks that Shao Yu gave her a sum of money before she left, so she said, "Where's the money your father gave you? ?take it out!"

    Seeing that Shao Xiaocao had no intention of taking it out, Mrs Wang rushed to her side and searched. After finding the piece of silver in her purse, she mocked: "Your father What if it hurts you, I'm not just giving you this amount of money!"

    After receiving the money, Wang finally felt a lot more at ease, and said, "Your father has caused trouble, close the door during this time, and don't go out to hang around."

    She just finished speaking. Suddenly there was a knock on the door outside the house.

    The mother and daughter looked at each other, Wang Shi instructed: "What are you doing? Go open the door."

    Shao Xiaocao opened the door and shouted, "Uncle Hu."

    This is an old neighborhood who has lived in the same street for many years, and the one who followed Shao Yu and won a lot of money in the casino before.

    Uncle Hu, who used to be shabby in the past, is wearing a newly bought clothes today, with a ruddy face and a proud look on his face.

    "Sister-in-law, is my brother Shao at home?" Uncle Hu asked.

    Seeing that he was also looking for Shao Yu, Mrs. Wang was surprised and asked, "Why are you looking for him? He's out, not at home."

    Uncle Hu immediately said: "That's right, even if he comes back, you can let him go out to avoid, don't stay at home during this time."

    After hearing this, Mrs Wang was heartbroken and immediately thought that this was the second wave of people who came to look for Shao Yu, and couldn't help asking: "What the **** did he do outside? thing?"

    Uncle Hu's face flashed for a while, and he quickly said, "Sister-in-law, don't ask anything, just let him avoid it."

    Wang immediately got angry and said angrily: "It's been a neighborhood for so many years, can't you say something clearly?"

    Uncle Hu saw that she was angry, and in desperation, he just said: "Yesterday Brother Shao provoked people in Zhang's casino. It is said that Zhang Meng died because of Brother Shao. He's still in a coma, what if he wakes up, it doesn't matter if he's not at home during this time, just avoid it."

    When Mrs Wang heard this, her legs softened and she leaned to the side again. Shao Xiaocao hurriedly supported her.

    "God, what the **** have I done!"

    This time, the situation is different from the last time. It is no longer a debt, but Zhang Meng's half-life.

    Once you owe money, you can win it back, but he will never give up so easily if he loses Half-Life.

    "Sister-in-law, Brother Shao is no more, or you should take the grass and go back to your mother's house in the countryside to hide for a while." Uncle Hu persuaded again.

    Wang shi lowered his head and did not know what he was thinking, Shao Xiaocao hurriedly thanked Uncle Hu who came to report the letter.

    Uncle Hu said with a smile: "Your father has also helped me a lot, don't thank me, I really don't need to thank me."

    When the door was closed again, Mrs Wang scolded: "What is your father thinking, who is Zhang Meng, how can you provoke him? Your brother just broke a finger, and he Go, you really don't want to die!"

     

    "You broom star, if it wasn't for you, could your father provoke Zhang Meng? You must kill the whole family to feel at ease!"

    Shao Xiaocao was stunned when she heard the words, thinking that Zhang Meng was still in a coma after losing half of his life.

     

    At this time, there was a knock on the door.

    The hearts of the mother and daughter jumped, not knowing which wave of people was outside the door.

    This time, it was rare for the two of them not to open the door immediately.

    "Who is outside?" Wang shi asked cautiously.

    The person outside the door replied: "Me."

    Listening to this familiar voice, Shao Xiaocao hurried forward to open the door.

    Seeing Shao Yu leaving and returning, although I don't understand why, it doesn't delay Wang's complaining about him.

     "Who is Zhang Meng, how can you provoke him? You don't want to die, the whole family still wants to live!" Wang said loudly.

    "If you speak louder, all the Zhang family will be attracted." Shao Yu said.

    Wang's face stiffened, and her voice lowered, but she kept on thinking, and asked Shao Yu why she wanted to provoke the Zhang family casino, and whether she wanted to kill the whole family.

    On the other hand, Shao Xiaocao asked curiously, "Why is Daddy coming back."

    Shao Yu took out two red flowers from her arms and said, "I saw this on the roadside before I left the city. I thought it was very suitable for you, so I bought it and sent it back."

    Shao Xiaocao looked at the two head flowers, and only felt that the very ordinary flannel was shining with luster.

    While Mrs Wang, watching this scene, felt even more sour in her heart.

    Shao Yu had a bowl of water and took out a wooden comb from his arms and handed it to Mrs. Wang.

    Originally, Mrs. Wang was full of anger towards Shao Yu, but when she saw the comb, she suddenly slowed down, but she still said, "Why waste money?"

    After asking this, Mrs Wang thought of her previous guess again, and immediately chased after Shao Yu and asked, "Where's the money? So much money? You took it all for yourself?"

    Shao Yu was at a loss when he heard the words and asked, "What money?"

     

    Shao Yu only felt amused when she heard her guess.

     

    "It's all a family, even if you are really rich, why do you have to put it on yourself?" Shao Yu asked in confusion.

    In the past, the Shao family was in charge of the money by the Wang family. In the end, the money she managed became less and less. Apart from being cheated by Shao Dabao, she also helped the poor relatives of her mother's family.

    "Men make money outside and women manage things at home. This is the truth." Wang said vaguely.

    "You manage money? Then why didn't you care about Dabao gambling before?" Shao Yu asked.

    Wang froze.

    Shao Yu then asked Shao Xiaocao: "Where is the money I gave you?"

    Shao Xiaocao looked at Wang Shi, and Wang Shi immediately looked left and right with a guilty conscience.

    "You even want to rob my daughter of the private house money?" Shao Yu asked.

     

    And the Wang family did not live up to her expectations, Shao Yu walked away and looted her daughter's money.

    "I am her mother, she should listen to me." Wang said confidently.

    Shao Yu said again: "Then marry a husband, why don't you listen to me?"

    Wang was dumbfounded.

    Shao Xiaocao kindly said from the side: "I don't have anything to spend money on. Mother can take it if she wants, I don't mind."

    "I don't mind." Shao Yu glanced at her and said, "Money is the courage of the poor. When you have money, you can't panic."

    Shao Xiaocao is too young and has experienced too little, so she still doesn't quite understand it, she thought of the government again, and said, "Dad, the government asked you to go to the government."

    Shao Yu nodded, but she didn't want to go, so she said, "Wait when I get back."

    Wang continued to ask: "What did you do?"

     After hearing this, Shao Yu felt inexplicable and said, "I didn't do anything wrong."

    "Why don't you dare to go now if you haven't done anything wrong? The government has come to the door, and you still lie to me?"

    Wang's appearance of being deeply afraid of being implicated made Shao Yu laugh, and he deliberately said: "Okay, I won't lie to you, I killed someone, and I'm about to die. "

    Wang's eyes widened after hearing this, and she believed it without thinking, and said, "Such a big thing... such a big thing, you are going to kill me and Dabao!"
