Chapter 58: Repentance
Shen Liu greeted his relatives, did not pay attention to pomp, hired a donkey cart early in the morning, dressed in big red flowers, and rushed to the door of Mei's house with great interest. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
There was no ceremony, and few people saw her off, Mei Xinju didn't even show her face, only Mei Sanniang's two brothers sent her out of Mei's mansion, and when they parted, Mei Sanniang's second brother secretly stuffed a cloth bag for Mei Sanniang, but was snatched by the sharp-eyed second sister-in-law, which made other relatives laugh.
The scene at the door, Xu Yan frowned slightly, and said that once he entered a wealthy family, it was as deep as the sea, and this sentence was probably true.
The sea is cold and unforgiving.
Fortunately, Mei Sanniang is about to leave the Mei family, and she will never be looked down upon again.
"Big brother, second brother. ”
Outside the gate, Mei Sanniang turned around and bowed, and said, "The third sister is leaving, I'm afraid she won't come back, so my father and mother will entrust it to the two brothers." ”
Mei Sanniang's two brothers are just cowardly people, and they are disciplined by their own mother-in-law to be submissive, hearing what the sister said, the two of them were also embarrassed, and hurriedly nodded to reassure the third sister, the Mei family has a big business, and they will provide for their parents to support their old age.
After saying just one word, Mei Sanniang smiled lightly, boarded the donkey cart, and she didn't even look at the Mei family around her.
A subordinate carried a small elm box onto the donkey cart, and Shen Liu made a circle at the door, and happily drove away, all the way it was arrogant.
This family business, he can be regarded as picking up a big bargain, it is like a pie in the sky, Shen Liu is happy in his heart, it would be better if there was no annoying fly next to the pie.
The fly in Shen Liu's eyes was the little Taoist priest who was leading the pig next to the donkey cart.
"Boy, get out of the way and cool off, grandpa has no money to reward you. ”
Shen Liu, who was driving the car, grinned at Xu Yan, threatening this little Taoist priest to stay away, and not to inquire about him Who Shen Liu was, and wanted to knock him out, which was really blind.
Ordinary people can't afford to hire monks and Taoists to marry wives and have children, but the Mei family is a big family, even if a Taoist priest comes to the door, it is normal, and you can get a reward by saying a few auspicious words, so why not do it.
Shen Liu thought that Xu Yan was here to reward money, so naturally he didn't have a good face.
The woman and the dowry in the car are now Shen Liu's, not to mention a Taoist priest, even if a god comes, don't want to ask for a copper plate.
"Parking. ”
Turning the street, the woman who had just left Mei's house shouted coldly in the car, and without waiting for Shen Liu to answer, the smashed wedding dress was thrown out.
"Lady, what are you doing here?" Shen Liu was stunned, this hasn't arrived home yet, why did he throw away the wedding dress.
"Repentance. ”
Mei Sanniang's wedding dress was the clothes she usually wore, and at this time, she walked out of the car with an elm box, her face was cold, and she was about to leave without even looking at Shen Liu.
I've seen crying and spilling on the wedding day, Shen Liu has never seen someone who regrets his marriage just after leaving the house, and when he saw Mei Sanniang leaving, he suddenly became anxious, and jumped on tiptoe to stop in front quickly.
"You say that if you regret your marriage, you will regret your marriage? Are you Shen Liu a wild dog on the street, so easy to get rid of?"
The previous face full of joy turned into hideous at this time, the gambler was already brave and ruthless, it didn't matter if his daughter-in-law ran away, he Shen Liu would never let go of Mei Sanniang's dowry.
"It's okay to go, leave the dowry!"
After all, the Mei family is a big family, Shen Liu can't afford to provoke him, people can go, but money can't go.
Staring at the ruffian in front of her, Mei Sanniang is not afraid, a Shen Liu is no match for the Yuanshan bandits, but this kind of ground snake is the most difficult to deal with, if it is not solved today, it will inevitably be harassed by Shen Liu in the future.
Opening the elm box, Mei Sanniang took out a full hundred taels of silver from it, threw it to the other party and said, "From now on, we have nothing to do with each other." ”
Mei Sanniang's dowry is a lot, and the small box contains three hundred taels of silver, and the heavy silver can see that Shen Liu's mouthfuls have come down.
Three hundred taels of silver, he only got one hundred taels, this is not good, Shen Liu looked at the left and right no one, and he was about to step forward and rob it, anyway, it was the woman he married, and the dowry should be his.
The cold light flashed, and a sharp dagger forced the ruffian who pounced, Mei Sanniang said coldly: "If you don't think one hundred taels is enough, then the fish will die and the net will be broken!"
A woman with a dagger, plus a Taoist priest holding a piglet, Shen Liu hesitated for a long time, but he didn't dare to grab it, cursed a few words and turned away, and went straight to the gambling house.
There were gradually pedestrians around, there was a bustle to see, no one would miss it, Mei Sanniang saw Shen Liu leaving, so she put away the dagger, held the small wooden box, and left the street with Xu Yan in a hurry.
"Third sister, we can't go back to Mei's house. ”
In the inn, the little Taoist priest was eating a big meal, and he said that the little pig under his feet was exactly the same as him, and he didn't raise his head.
"I can't go back, and I don't want to go back. Mei Sanniang doesn't look like she has much appetite, and she doesn't seem to be in a good mood.
It's no wonder that the dowry of three hundred taels is unthinkable in ordinary people, but in the Mei family, it is not even a dime, Mei Sanniang is also the direct descendant of the Mei family, if the other female dependents marry, at least a dowry of thousands or even thousands of taels, but she Mei Sanniang, only three hundred taels, is given to Shen six hundred taels, and at this time there are only two hundred taels left.
"The third sister doesn't have to worry, you can eat for a long time for one or two silver. Xu Yan was heartlessly comforting on the side, and the little black pig was also purring and barking.
"Sit and eat the sky, didn't your master teach you this truth? ”
"We can farm and raise pigs, and we can't eat empty. Xu Yan buried his face in the bowl and said while eating: "Three hundred taels can buy a lot of piglets, and when the piglets grow up, they will become fat pigs, and then the fat pigs will give birth, and the master said that this is called endless life......
Angrily knocking on the little Taoist priest's head, Mei Sanniang said angrily: "You know that you are a pig, you are really a pig! Let you eat like this, we will have to be beggars in a year." ”
Whether it was knocking on the head or scolding angrily, the little Taoist priest still ate happily, and smirked while eating, which made Mei Sanniang laugh too.
"I want to do some business, so that I can have a foundation, in Fengshan City, no money is untenable, it's just that two hundred taels is too little......"
As soon as he heard that he was doing business, Xu Yan also came to his senses, and finally raised his head from the bowl: "There are a lot of third sisters, two hundred taels is enough to build a Taoist temple." ”
"Build a Taoist temple, and then I will chant and feed the pigs with you in the Taoist temple, right?"
Seeing the little Taoist nodding his head, Mei Sanniang sighed helplessly: "Little baby, the head is full of pigs, did your master raise you stupidly." ”
The pig is actually very good, at least there is no trouble, and the little Taoist priest like the pig is together, the sadness in Mei Sanniang's heart is gradually forgotten, grabbing a plate of dishes, and eating it in a big gulp.
She is just a little unwilling, Mei Sanniang has no hatred for her family and father, because in the final analysis, Xiaocheng was indirectly killed by her, and even she can't forgive herself, will she still beg her father to forgive her as the culprit, being hastily married out of the house is already the best ending.
The inn is not a place to stay for a long time, from the next day, Mei Sanniang looked for a shop on the street all day long, less than two days of effort, in the east of the city, Xiliu Street in the end let her down a dilapidated restaurant, the place is not small, there is a vacant space in the backyard, but it is overgrown with weeds.
The restaurant is too dilapidated, no one has taken care of it for several years, the tables and chairs inside are all eroded by wind and rain to tatters, and there is a big hole leaking in the roof, you can see the sun on a sunny day, and you can see the waterfall on a rainy day, and you have to tattoo one hundred and eighty taels of silver.
It doesn't matter if the house is dilapidated, Mei Sanniang doesn't plan to open any restaurant anyway, but the money she wants to decorate is not enough, let alone hire some servants.
The two people who moved to the restaurant were sitting at the door worrying.
Xu Yan didn't care where he lived, the dilapidated restaurant was already very good in his opinion, at least there was a place to live, how could Mei Sanniang be sad.
The shouting in a big wooden house at the end of the street attracted the attention of the two, and when Mei Sanniang saw what the wooden house was, her eyes lit up and asked, "Little Taoist, do you know how to make money?"
