Zhao Shouzheng followed into the house. Before he could speak, Zhao Hao handed the four ingots of 20 taels of ingots to him.

He patted Zhao Hao's shoulder with relief, and Zhao Shouzheng turned around silently and put the four ingots of silver in front of his brother.

Zhao Shouye was startled at first, then pushed back the three ingots and said, "I only need five taels, and there are still some scattered silver on my body, which can be collected."

Zhao Shouzheng shook his head and stuffed the silver into his elder brother. He sighed: "Money is a hero. How can you be a real man if you are short of money? The elder brother just keeps it, it's not enough..."

He looked at Zhao Hao in the room and did not dare to say the following.

Zhao Shouye was ashamed and restless, wiped his tears and stood up to say goodbye.

Zhao Shouzheng could not keep it, so he and his son sent the two to the bridge, waved his hand and said reluctantly: "Brother, come often."

Zhao Shouye waved his hand to his brothers, feeling mixed feelings.

Zhao Xian muttered in a low voice: "Where is the face to come again?"

"Oh, let's go..." Zhao Shouye agreed deeply and left dejectedly.

Zhao Hao and his son stood at the bridge.

Seeing the two figures disappear into the night, Zhao Hao sighed: "I didn't expect my uncle to be so depressed."

"Yes..." Zhao Shouzheng was sad for a while for his brother, and said in lingering fear: "Oh, I didn't expect that this soft rice would be so unpalatable?"

Zhao Hao deeply agreed: "Oh, yes."

The two of them couldn't help but think with silence, if they could really eat soft food, would they be as depressed as their uncle today?

After sighing for a while, the father and son turned around and walked home.

On the way, Zhao Hao asked curiously, why did Zhao Shouye’s wife have such a big grudge against her grandfather?

"Oh, that's a bad debt that can't be broken. In short, you can just know that she's taking it on her own."

However, Zhao Shouzheng was unwilling to mention the past and simply told his son that when the eldest brother's marriage, the Qian family used tricks, which caused the old man to suffer a great loss...

Zhao Hao just asked casually. Now that the family is separated, the two of them don’t meet each other, so naturally they can’t be disgusted with each other.

Zhao Shouzheng was depressed and fell asleep when he went home. Zhao Hao packed up the dishes, cleaned the main hall, and then washed the brush and went to bed to sleep.

Unexpectedly, after lying down, he tossed and turned, but he was not sleepy at all. He was strangely hearing the sound of drums coming from the bell and drum tower in the distance.

Zhao Hao listened carefully and then the sound of the drums came.

'The first update is the first moment of Xu's day, and Nanjing needs to add one moment, which is the second moment of Xu's day." Zhao Hao silently converted it in his heart, and couldn't help but realize it suddenly: "It's only 7:24, no wonder I can't sleep!"

Today I woke up at midnight and had nothing to do all day long. Of course I am not sleepy now.

In the past, he was either busy all night and had no sleep, or to save dinner, he went to bed before dark. Zhao Hao still didn't realize how difficult it was to be this long night.

‘It seems like I have to find something to pass the time…’

Zhao Hao was too lazy to put some wax, lying on the bed with his arms pillowed, looking at the black roof with wide eyes, thinking silently in his mind that after solving the problem of food and clothing, what should we do next.

I don't know how long he had been thinking about it, but he was just a little sleepy when he suddenly heard a light crack.

In this silent night, the sound was particularly harsh.

Zhao Hao immediately lost all sleepiness, lay there and his ears were raised, and then he heard another creak, and the door of the main hall was pushed open.

And in the east room, Zhao Shouzheng snored like thunder!

‘There are thieves!’

Zhao Hao immediately stood up and hurriedly reached out to touch the iron rod on the pillow... This was what he asked for to defend himself the day before yesterday.

Then Zhao Hao went down to the ground barefoot, carried the iron rod to the entrance of the west room, and looked into the main hall through the curtain.

He had been keeping his eyes open before, and his eyes had already adapted to the darkness. He vaguely saw a black shadow rummaging through boxes and cabinets... Oh no, the father and son were so poor that they didn't even have a box, let alone a cabinet.

Seeing the thief rummaging around looking for something, Zhao Hao's nervous blood was about to stagnate.

Not sure whether the thief had a sharp knife, he didn't dare to shout, for fear that the dog would jump over the wall and cause a disaster.

Zhao Hao’s only reliance now is that the other party didn’t know that he had been awakened. Thinking of this, he held the iron rod tightly, hid behind the curtain without breathing, and was about to wait for the thief to come in and give him a blow!

But who would have thought that the thief was not as good as his wish, so he went to the east room first.

Zhao Hao was immediately panicked, and he couldn't even get a sudden attack.

Just when he was helpless and ready to shout loudly and wake up his father, he heard a sudden shout from the east room:

"Brother! You suck her!"

The thief was so scared that he was striking, his hand hung on the curtain, and he didn't dare to stretch out for a while.

After hesitating for a moment, he turned around and came towards the west room.

Seeing this, Zhao Hao breathed a sigh of relief at first, and then his heart was raised to his throat again.

He gently wiped the sweat from his palms, grabbed the iron rod tightly again, and raised it high above his head. Then he held his breath and stared at the gap in the curtain without blinking!

As the footsteps were getting closer, Zhao Hao's heartbeat was getting faster and faster.

Finally, the curtain was lifted and a head quietly penetrated.

Zhao Hao put his heart on, aimed at the dark head, and swung his arms down!

Unexpectedly, with a bang, the iron rod hit the eaves of the door.

The thief was shocked, took a few steps back, and sat on the ground.

"Catch the thief!" Zhao Hao used his strength to shout, and swung his baton at the thief again.

Zhao Shouzheng from the east room was also awakened. When he heard his son's shouting, he shouted without thinking: "Catch the thief, catch the thief quickly!"

The father and son's screams instantly penetrated the roof and spread to neighbors, and the chickens and dogs were very lively.

The thief was scared and rolled and crawled backwards. Zhao Hao hit the back with a stick, which made him scream in pain...

"Ouch..."

Fortunately, Zhao Hao was still young and lacked strength. He could still get up with the pain and stumble out of the door before Zhao Shouzheng blocked the way.

Seeing the thief run away, Zhao Hao's legs became weak and he sat on the ground.

"Don't chase the enemy with poverty." Zhao Shouzheng said to himself, then gave up chasing the enemy and hurried over to take care of his son.

"My son wasn't injured, right?" Zhao Shouzheng carefully checked his son's body.

"I'm fine, I'm just losing my strength." Zhao Hao wanted to reach out and support his knees, but found that his arms were sore that they couldn't lift them up.

While the father and son were talking, they suddenly heard a scream from the street.

Zhao Shouzheng didn't care about exploring it, and sat down on the bench with his son, and groped for a little wax.

After seeing that Zhao Hao was completely safe and had a pale face, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Just as Zhao Hao was about to speak, he heard heavy footsteps outside.

He looked in the sound and saw a burly figure walking into the yard.

Seeing that it was Gao Wu, the father and son of the Zhao family were completely calmed down. Zhao Hao looked at Gao Wu's red upper body and his kneaded muscles and felt a sense of security.

General Gao held something in his hand and threw it on the ground with a bang.

The father and son looked closely and found that it was the escaped thief.

Gao Wu was organizing the wording along the way, but Zhao Hao waited for too long, so he pointed outside and said in a muffled voice: "We are sleeping. When we heard Mr. Zhao and the young master shouting to catch the thief, we just went out and met this guy running out. Let's give him a soothing, and this guy was dizzy."

"The tall and powerful man!" Zhao Shouzheng gave a thumbs up and praised excitedly: "How can you get a strong man to guard all directions!"
