Chapter 241 Leave the money to buy the road

Hai'er and his wife accompanied their mother Mei Ga and lived at home in Chang'an for nearly ten days, and it was a month

When I was about to leave, the weather suddenly changed at night, and the wind was howling.

When I got up in the morning, the wind stopped, but the clouds covered the sky and the snow was blowing heavily.

Hai'er looked at the snow that was not above her ankles, and she was afraid that it would start to snow in the middle of the night. This time I was about to leave for Wugong Mountain, but the snow didn't stop.

Horseback riding along the way is OK, the old man doll walks in a car, I'm afraid it's cold along the way, it's not easy to walk.

In the house, Li Weiyi was dressing his two children on the kang.

Hai'er entered the door and said, "If you want to leave today, the two of us can ride horses, but if our mother and Wawa walk by car for nine or ten hours, I'm afraid I won't be able to stand the cold." ”

"Then wait until the weather clears. Li Weiyi said.

"But there's still a lot going on in the house. Especially if someone wants to go to the doctor, the time is delayed. He asked his daughter, "Su Limei, how about you and your mother go back, and you and your brother and grandmother stay in Chang'an?"

"Done. I would like to be with my grandma and grandpa. Six-year-old Su Limei happily.

Three-year-old Xiao Sucheng saw that his sister wanted to stay, and also said: "I, I am also willing to follow grandma and grandpa." ”

Hai'er thought that his father was getting old, and his body was getting worse and worse. Due to their father's special status, they can't blatantly live together for a long time when they come back.

This year, let the mother and the doll stay with the father as companions, and find a way to come and pick them up during the New Year.

After breakfast, Hai'er discussed the matter with her father, Su Wu, and her mother, Mei Ga.

Mei Ga looked at the man with a smile: "According to the meaning of my son and daughter-in-law, this winter, I will spend the winter with my granddaughter and grandson here with you, it will not affect you!"

Su Wu pondered for a while and said, "If that's the case, you usually have to wear men's clothes." If an outsider comes to the house, you come to see my friend brother. ”

"That's fine. Mei Ga said heartily, "Now that I'm old, I don't want to be pretty." It's easy to get in and out in men's clothes. ”

In fact, Su Wu also wanted his wife to be in front of him, to say something confidant, not to be lonely. Besides, there are two baby grandchildren in front of him, which is even more lively.

The old family members Su Li and Lanzhi learned that their sister-in-law Mei Ga stayed behind to accompany Su Wu for the winter, and after their daughter went to school, Tu Boxing also came over to help worry about the doll and make food and drink.

On this day, when they came back from Su Wu's house, Su Li held the chopping wood in the yard and stacked it on the eaves platform.

Lanzhi entered the house and changed into Su Li's man's cotton clothes, wore a man's hat, tucked his hair into the hat, came out and stood in front of the man, imitated the man's rough and rough appearance, and asked happily: "Look, how does my brother look!"

"Hey, don't say it's a bit like it! If you have a beard, it's even more beautiful!" Su Li looked at the woman again, funny.

"The second sister-in-law is tall, she wears men's clothes, I feel very imposing!" Laneige said, "I will go out like this tomorrow!"

Su Lin's daughter-in-law, Miao Ying, carried the doll into the yard and heard it and asked, "Mom, the old man in the second uncle's family is the second uncle?"

Lanzhi knew that Su Lin's daughter-in-law had a long mouth, so she hurriedly interrupted: "Look at me wearing your uncle's man's clothes."

Dress, like a man?"

"No, a woman looks thin in a man's clothes. Miao Ying asked again: "Mom, the man in the second uncle's house said that he was his friend, I don't see it." ”

"And who do you say he is?" Laneige pulled down his face. The matter between Su Wu and Mei Ga is a secret. Only the old couple knew about it, and they didn't dare to let the dolls know. I am afraid that there will be many people who know about it, and I am afraid that it will spread out, first, I am afraid that the Hu people will come to do things in secret, and I am afraid that the court will know that it is not good for the Su family.

"I think he is the wife of the second uncle, the second uncle. Miao Ying sat on the wooden table in the courtyard and said.

"Then since your second uncle has a wife and family, why did he distribute the emperor's reward money to you?"

Miao Ying was speechless when she heard this. This time, the emperor rewarded the second uncle with a lot of money and gave him a lot.

"Everyone in the world knows that your second uncle was picked up by the court alone. Su Li said solemnly, "Your second uncle has made many friends, you must be measured in your words when dealing with him!

Miao Ying was not angry when she heard this, but she was very unhappy about Su Li's lesson. After sitting for a while, seeing that no one paid attention to her, she walked away awkwardly with the doll in her arms.

Su Li is a careful and conscientious person, and he came from next door after breakfast the next day and quietly told Su Wu about Su Lin's daughter-in-law's suspicions.

This can't let Miao Ying talk nonsense, she has to knock these two down.

At noon, Miao Ying was rolling noodles.

Su Wu walked in with Li Zhenxing.

"Miao Ying. ”

Miao Ying saw that it was Su Wu, so she hurriedly stopped, pulled a wooden table to greet her, and put the wooden table in front of Su Wu, "The second uncle is here, please take a seat!"

Su Wu sat down. Li Zhenxing stood aside with a black face.

Miao Ying asked, "Second uncle, what's the matter with you?"

"What about Su Lin?" Su Wu frowned and said solemnly.

"She went out with the baby in her arms, I'll call him for you!" Miao Ying said and walked out.

"Then I'll tell you the same!" Su Wu said in an accentuated tone, "If you two are okay, put dung on the wheat field." Don't wander around all day!"

"Got it!" she knew it was a warning she had spoken at her mother-in-law's house at night.

In fact, living at the feet of the Son of Heaven, she knows that she must be cautious, although she has not been married into the Su family for a long time, she has also heard about what happened in the past and present of the Su family. She's not going to talk nonsense outside. Now that I think about it, she regrets it, she is really talkative at night!

After lunch, the sun was nice and warm. Xiao Su Li Mei and Xiao Su Cheng held a small shovel in their hands and dug and played on the edge of the garden.

Mei Ga accompanied Su Wu to sit at the base of the wall of the courtyard and the sun.

Su Wu leaned lazily against the wall, his eyes closed in contemplation. After a long time, he opened his eyes and said to Mei Ga: ", I see, the snow has melted too." It's been nice lately. In two days, let Zhenxing send your mother-in-law and grandson back to Wugong Mountain!"

"What's going on?" asked Mei Ga, surprised.

"No, nothing. He thought about it and said, "I'm used to being quiet, and I'm not used to the dolls being around." ”

Mei Ga looked at the man's thoughtful look and knew that something had happened. He didn't say, and she didn't want to ask. Now the position of a man is not his own, he is cautious.

She has always been here, although it is a man's clothes, if she is found out, whether this matter is transmitted back to Hudi or learned by the court, it is a sin, and it is even linked to her life......

Although the two of them wanted to accompany each other, they were helpless.

So she said, "I have nothing to do here, and I'm not used to it." ”

Two days later, early in the morning, the weather was clear. Su Wu asked Li Zhenxing and his wife to spread a thick futon in the carriage, set up a cotton carport, and the three of them sat on it. Escorted home by the young couple.

Under the teaching of Su Wu, Li Zhenxing is now able to write and martial arts. The little daughter-in-law Zhenzhen can also read and write, and in martial arts, she can still come a few times. With them escorting the three of them all the way, Su Wu was also relieved.

At noon, they rushed to the post station in Maoling for lunch, and continued on their way. The sun had already set in the west, and I hadn't traveled half the way yet, so it seemed that it would be midnight when I got home.

When it is dark, the stars are shining, and the upper moon hangs in the western sky like a hook. In the haze, there is a dark and swarthy slope ditch in front of it, and after passing the slope ditch, you will reach home after more than half an hour.

Li Zhenxing drove the car along the road to the bottom of the ditch, and suddenly two masked men armed with machetes appeared in the grove next to him, blocking the road and shouting: "Leave the money to buy the road!"
