After hearing what the father and son said, the people of the Liang family knew that the sweater and trousers might be excellent stuff.
Otherwise, how could the old man even cheat the things that his grandson gave to his son?
The old lady was not as thick-skinned as the old man and asked for her daughter-in-law’s share.
She said to the old man: “Okay, Xiao Liu rarely honors his father once, so don’t make trouble.”
This shameless old man even wants to snatch his son’s things.
Hearing what the old lady said, the old man gave in a step: “Then I will reluctantly give him one set.”
Liang Mingcheng: “……”
What do you mean by reluctantly giving it to me, it’s mine, right?
But he couldn’t argue with his father, so he could only pinch his nose and say aggrieved: “Thank you so much.”
Then he turned his head and looked at Liang Youxiao: “How many sets do you have?”
His father cheated on him, so he cheated on his son.
Liang Youxiao: “……”
He felt shamelessness was inherited.
He spread his hands: “I do have three sets, but our body shapes are different, you can’t wear them.”
The clothes that Shi Qingluo sent were in two sizes.
He was not as strong as his grandfather and father, so he wore a smaller size.
Liang Mingcheng: “……”
The old lady smiled and said: “Where did you get these clothes? Go buy some more.”
She also felt that two sets were not enough to change.
Liang Youxiao replied: “Shi Qingluo’s woolen workshop knitted them. I will write to her tomorrow and ask her to send some more.”
Old Master Liang said: “Write today and buy more from her.”
Added: “All sizes.”
For such good things, he would of course show off his grandson’s filial piety to his old friends.
Wait until those people are jealous enough, and then promise to send them a few sets.
The reason why he wanted to cheat his son was mainly to take one set out, let his old friends try it, and then grab it.
Just thinking about it makes him feel good.
“Okay, I’ll try to buy it.” Liang Youxiao could see that the old man was eager to go out and show off, and he was very upset.
People in the capital said that their group of dandies likes to show off. They really should let these people see it. These old men were even worse than them.
After a while, the servant said that the iron stove was ready.
So Liang Youxiao asked everyone to move.
“Grandfather, grandmother, this is a stove, which is warmer than a brazier.”
“Would you like to try it?”
The old man and the old lady took the lead and walked over to sit down.
“Don’t mention it, it’s really warm.”
The old lady smiled and said: “And it warms the whole body, it’s good for doing handicrafts on it.”
Liang Youxiao smiled and said: “That’s right.”
“Close a vent, and you can play mahjong on the mat.”
Hearing him say this, the old man immediately became interested: “Then try it quickly.”
So Liang Youxiao asked the servant to do it according to Shi Qingluo’s instructions.
After a while, he put the mat of the right size that Shi Qingluo brought with him.
He asked someone to bring the mahjong, and he sat on it to try it out first.
He said: “It’s not as hot as before, but it’s still warm, just right for playing mahjong.”
The old man couldn’t wait to sit down and try it, and his face instantly smiled: “Good, very good.”
He couldn’t help but praise, “Among all my sons and grandsons, Xiao Liu is the most filial.”
His sons and grandsons: “……”
Suddenly felt a sour feeling in his teeth.
Except for Liang Mingcheng and Liang Youxiao’s two brothers, everyone else cursed Liang Youxiao in their hearts.
This guy, who usually doesn’t do anything serious, has practiced how to coax the old man and the old lady to perfection. Shameless!
Liang Youxiao struck while the iron was hot and asked: “Grandfather, what do you think about what I told you before?”
Old Master Liang thought for a while and asked back: “In the future, as long as there are good things, can you get them?”
The meaning was naturally the good things from Shi Qingluo.
Liang Youxiao patted his chest and said, “That’s a must.”
“Okay, I agree with what you said, just go ahead and do it.”
Then he changed the subject and emphasized: “But since you have chosen that path, do it well, don’t make a fuss and embarrass me, an old man.”
Their family had no shortage of men, and they were generally good.
Therefore, resources were limited, and they could only focus on two or three people.
Since his grandson has the ambition to do business, he will not object. Who would complain about having too much money?
Liang Youxiao’s face bloomed with the same smile: “Don’t worry, I will do a great business for my grandfather to see, and I will never embarrass you.”
He blinked again: “If there are good things in the future, our family will be the first to have them.”
Old Master Liang smiled and nodded with satisfaction: “That’s it.”
Others didn’t understand what the two said, and each had their guesses and thoughts.
Old Master Liang ordered again: “By the way, move the table outside to my yard.”
Since the grandson asked someone to bring two tables, it must be one for his wife and one for him.
Liang Youxiao smiled and said: “That’s for grandpa.”
“I’ll have someone bring it to your yard and heat it so you can invite people to play mahjong.”
The people of the Liang family: “……”
This flattery made them all convinced.
Old Master Liang gave Liang Youxiao a very satisfied look: “Xiao Liu is still considerate.”
Others: “……”
Does it mean that they were not considerate?
They just lost because they don’t know how to flatter……
After lunch, the old man left and asked his entourage to invite old friends to play mahjong at home.
By the way, he showed off his sweaters, trousers, socks, and iron table stove.
Liang Youxiao returned to the yard and found that among the things sent by Shi Qingluo, there was a separate bundle with dozens of pairs of woolen socks.
So he sent a few more pairs to the old lady and the old man, and then he wore a new sweater and took a few pairs of socks to show off.
After Liang Mingcheng finished his meal and went back, he tried on a set of sweaters and trousers that he had finally managed to get back.
He didn’t want to take them off after putting them on, it was really warm and comfortable.
Thinking of the warm iron table, it wouldn’t be cold if he worked on it.
So he went to his son’s yard.
Just happened to meet Liang Youxiao who was going out.
Liang Youxiao was afraid that his father would snatch the clothes, so he immediately said: “Dad, why are you here? You really can’t wear mine.”
Liang Mingcheng’s face darkened: “Look at how stingy you are.”
He said sourly: “You only know how to coax your grandmother and grandfather, why don’t you think about honoring your father?”
Liang Youxiao smiled and said: “You are not the head of the family.”
Of course, he should honor the people who can protect him first.
Besides, he was also sincerely filial to the two old people. After all, the two of them were still quite fond of him, and sincerity was rewarded with sincerity.
As for his father, they were all his children anyway, so it doesn’t matter if he was less filial. He can’t let him go back to the furnace and be retrained.
And his father was the most fiercely opposed to his business, and he also had a temper.
Liang Mingcheng: “……”
Where is my whip?
Seeing his father’s face getting darker, he immediately said with a strong desire to survive: “And I am also honoring you, right? You can’t blame me if you can’t protect yourself!”
This not only did not make Liang Mingcheng happy, but his face darkened again.
“I’m too lazy to talk to you. I heard that Nanxi County sent you three iron table stoves?”
Before Liang Youxiao could speak, Liang Mingcheng said again: “Move the remaining one to my study.”
Liang Youxiao looked at his father in disbelief: “That’s mine.”
You’re not going to steal it, are you?
Liang Mingcheng glanced at him: “From now on, that’s your honor to me.”
This trick was learned from his father just now.
Looking at his son with a face full of pain and disbelief, Liang Mingcheng suddenly felt better.
The little bastard was playing tricks on him, and he was still young.
So he supervised people to move the iron table stove back to the study.
Liang Youxiao, who was about to go out to call people back to play mahjong and show off the iron table stove, was left alone in the yard blowing by the cold wind……
