Chapter 142 A Lean Camel Is Bigger Than a Horse



Ma Dacai remained silent, staring at the wine glass, not knowing what he was thinking.

What are you thinking about? Of course I was thinking about Zhao Dashu.

He didn't believe what others said, but he believed what the old man and Zhao Ruxin said. Neither of them both disdains lying.

So, Zhao Dashu did have money.

"Dad, is the third brother at home today?"

"He is very close to the Song family now. No doubt, today is the first day of the month, and he must have gone to the Song family with a lot of luggage."

Zhao Maiqi and Ma Dacai came empty-handed every time: ...

Ma Dacai heard Old Sun nagging about her own house being robbed and Zhao Dawen's house being robbed, and he was so shocked that he almost sat up from his chair.

Therefore, today they had nothing to gain except a meal. No, the Yue family is so poor, so don't ask him for financial support.

Don't count on it, no hope!

The reason why he was still sitting there was that he wanted to wait for Zhao Dashu. In the afternoon, when the man came back, he would go to his house to see if he had really made a fortune. Is the house really as beautiful as my mother-in-law said? He always only believed half of what his mother-in-law said. When he opened his mouth, he was very exaggerated, just like a broken shoe sole, leaking air.

Moreover, Mai Xi is not like his mother, but like his father, who is very smart and knows how to bring everything home. In the past few years, he has trained them to be more sensible and loyal to the Ma family.

After dinner, Xu Xiaohong left. No one was worth her staying.

"Bah, just eat and you're done. Mai Xi, did you see that? That bitch is so hypocritical, she refuses to do any work, relying on your eldest brother's doting on her, she doesn't know how high the heaven is and how deep the earth is, and she doesn't take me and your father into consideration at all."

Zhao Maiqi also disliked Xu Xiaohong, and the mother and daughter shared the same hatred and scolded her. Mr. Zhao smoked silently without saying a word.

Xu Xiaohong was gone. Ma Dacai was very unhappy because he couldn't see the beauty and was feeling regretful. He thought his wife and mother-in-law were too wicked. How could they talk like that?

Xiaohong is their daughter-in-law and sister-in-law. Is it really right for them to say bad things about her behind her back? I didn't notice it before, but now I know that Xiaoying's mouth is so mean and mean, just like her mother who is as broken as a shoe sole.

Ma Dacai glanced at Mai Xi, and the disdain in his eyes could hardly be hidden.

"Mom, I want to eat candy, I want to eat candy!" Ma Youbao ran off to play, all dirty.

"Where's the one grandma gave you this morning?"

"I'm done eating. I want more, more!"

Mai Qi looked at his mother and said, "There's still some at home. I'll go get it for you. Stop bothering your mother!"

Ma Youbao was satisfied, and Old Mrs. Sun was heartbroken. There were only two handfuls of candies left, and she wanted to keep them for herself to enjoy slowly.

When I grew up, I liked to eat sweet things.

He grabbed a small handful to deal with Ma Youbao. Ma Dacai sat down and didn't continue chatting with Old Man Zhao. Old Mrs. Sun took her daughter to clean up the dishes. Zhao Ruxin went back to her room. The scene was almost silent.

"Mai Qi, what happened to your Dacai today? Why is he so distracted? Did you two have a fight?"

What's wrong? My soul has been taken away by the little goblin, what else can I do?

"No, he and I were still together! He might have been frightened by what happened to his third brother and didn't come back to his senses."

"You're right. Let alone a son-in-law, now that I think about it, I feel like I was dreaming about this half of my life. You two can just be alone."

Thinking of Xu Xiaohong, Zhao Maiqi felt that this woman could not stay in their family as she was definitely a disaster.

"Mom, the people in my eldest brother's room don't look like they can live a normal life. What should I do?"

"I'm worried too. Your eldest brother doesn't listen to me and your father, so I can't do anything about it."

"Think of a way to get rid of her. If she stays at home, what will happen to the eldest sister-in-law? Look at her. She even hooked up with the third brother. Sooner or later, she will be cheating on the eldest brother. Get rid of her quickly. If it doesn't work, sell her to a brothel. I think she came from there. She should be happy to go back."

Old Mrs. Sun opened her mouth and said that her daughter's words were too harsh. No matter what, she couldn't sell the woman her Da Wen had slept with to a brothel.

"You rarely go home anyway, so you won't be able to see him. It depends on what your eldest brother thinks. If it really doesn't work out, just stay in the county and don't come back."

Zhao Maiqi lowered his eyes to hide the viciousness in them. She will fight to the death with anyone who dares to snatch her husband from her. The wealth belongs to her and only hers.

It was not easy for him to wait until the afternoon. "Mom and Dad, let's go to Third Brother's house and sit for a while. I'll leave first."

"Why go to their house?"

"I just moved to a new house. I haven't been there yet. I want to go get familiar with the place."

Old Mrs. Sun still wanted to stop them, but she knew the third brother's temper best. If they went and had no fruit to eat, he would definitely go home very angry.

"If they want to go, let them go. Once they get there, we can pick them up and take them home. It's snowing, so don't wait until dark."

"Okay, I understand. Dad, you have to take care of yourself too. We'll go first."

Even as the crowd was leaving, Old Sun was still grumbling, "Why didn't you stop them? If they went to Old Third's house, what would they get?"

"Some people won't give up until they reach the Yellow River. If you don't let them go, they will think you are harming them. When they hit a wall and realize that the third brother is not the same as before, their active minds will calm down."

"You mean... they want to go to Lao San's house to make money?"

"What do you think?"

"Oh my, silly girl, you are obsessed with money. I have told her everything, but the third brother is very stingy now and just won't listen."

"It's okay. Once they suffer a loss and get scolded, they'll feel better." Old man Zhao was very unhappy today. Ever since he found out that his house had been robbed, his son-in-law's attitude towards him has become cold. They never asked them for help. Even so, if they were really so poor that they needed help one day, they probably wouldn't even get a single grain of rice from the Ma family.

It is true that businessmen only care about profits. Xiao Xi was very loyal to them, and she would probably be sad without the support of the Zhao family in the future.

Alas, in the end, he still took a look.

The third son is like that, the son-in-law is like that, and the eldest son is like that even more so. It's rare, his vision is really bad, everything he sees is wrong.

Led by Zhao Maiqi, Ma Dacai and his family walked all the way to the end of the village and saw a blue brick and tile house.

"Is this Third Brother's home?" She couldn't help but mutter to herself, her tone full of doubt.

"It must be. Look at this house, it's shabby. It's the only blue brick and tile house nearby. Whose house could it be if not my third brother's?" Ma Dacai rubbed his hands excitedly. How could the Zhao family be so capable? When Zhao Dawen disappeared, Zhao Dashu appeared.

He really can't get enough of it!

Zhao Dawen did not fall either. A lean camel is still bigger than a horse. Being a teacher in the county town is a very respectable job. He just didn't take the exam this time, it doesn't mean he won't take it again. Who knows, he might soar into the sky one day. We have to make him look up to us. We have to hold him in high esteem and not offend him. We must not offend him.
