"Which Xu family are you looking for?" asked Xu Xiangwan in front of the Zhang family. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Thinking of what Xu Xiangwan said about being sold, Zhang's face turned pale in an instant, and he quickly pulled Xu Xiangwan back to the room, closed the door of the east wing room with a "bang", and plugged in the deadbolt.

"Mother, what's wrong with you?" Today Wulang was called to the Yamen to collect grain, and Xiao Jiu also followed Chen Shilang and others to the rice field to pick up rice ears, and there were only three Zhang's mother and daughter in the family.

Seeing this, the middle-aged woman's eyes flashed with a gleam, but the smile on her face remained unchanged, and she shouted again towards the courtyard: "Is anyone at home?"

"Who's outside?" Seeing that no one responded, Liang walked out of the west wing.

Except for Da Lang, who was reading at home, the rest of the people were taken to Ganquan County to collect grain by Old Man Xu.

Ganquan County is about 20 kilometers away from Guojia Town, and it takes about an hour to walk from Guojia Town to Ganquan County. The family set off before dawn.

"Little sister-in-law, this is Uncle Xu's house in the east of Xujia Village?" The middle-aged woman saw someone responding, and her already small eyes smiled into a slit.

When the Liang family saw that the person who came was dressed as rich and noble, followed by several men dressed as family members, he was suddenly shocked, and a flattering smile appeared on his face: "This is the Xu family in the east of the village, I don't know which Uncle Xu you are looking for?"

"What we are looking for is Xu Zhili, Uncle Xu. The middle-aged woman said.

The Liang family was suspicious, when did Xu Zhili know such a rich person?

"...... you looking for him," Liang asked cautiously, shrinking back vigilantly.

When the middle-aged woman saw this, she immediately snorted and said with a smile: "Of course there are good things, big good things. ”

A good thing? What good thing can have to do with a rich and noble family like others? Although Liang was puzzled in his heart, since they said it was a good thing, it was not good to stop them anymore, so he smiled flatteringly: "This lady, please wait a moment, I will go first and ask my old lady." ”

Soon, Zheng came out with Liang and greeted, "This lady is please." ”

The middle-aged woman nodded towards the Zheng family and the two, and said with a smile: "Just call me sister-in-law Gao, I'm not a lady, I just run from house to house." ”

The Zheng family and the two naturally followed the call of Gao's sister-in-law and Gao's sister-in-law.

"Sister-in-law Gao, who are these people?" Zheng glanced at the men who followed behind, and there was a hint of understanding in his eyes.

The woman who claimed to be Gao's sister-in-law did not answer Zheng's question, but asked, "Presumably you are Mrs. Xu." I don't know if Master Xu told you anything about Zhao Yuanwai before?"

Zheng suddenly understood.

Sister-in-law Gao and Zheng glanced at each other and laughed.

"Sister-in-law Gao, can these eldest brothers be outside the house? The men in our family have all gone to the county town to collect food, and they have been there for almost two hours, and it is time to come back. Although the men and women of the Zhuang family are not as strict as those in the city, they are still very taboo against strange men, especially when there is no man in the family, so Zheng has this explanation.

Sister-in-law Gao nodded understandingly: "This is as it should be." ”

After finishing speaking, Sister-in-law Gao turned her head and smiled at several family members and said, "A few big brothers, how about you wait outside for a while?"

The leader-looking housekeeper frowned impatiently and complained, "This has come all the way here, and you haven't even drunk your saliva! ”

"Don't worry, what else are you worried about my aunt Gao's work?" Aunt Gao straightened her chest in front of several family members and threw a wink at the leading family members.

The leader stared at Aunt Gao's chest and glanced fiercely a few times, and then snorted lightly: "There is nothing we can't worry about, the key is to let our master rest assured." ”

The family turned his face to Zheng and said, "Sister-in-law, you are not allowed to enter the door, you can't even drink saliva, right?"

Zheng immediately nodded and responded: "A few masters don't worry, I will bring water to a few people immediately." ”

The middle-aged woman followed Zheng and Liang into the upper room. Several family members stood at the gate of the Xu family like door gods.

Although the hour is still early, but the Zhuang family is diligent, most of them get up early, the news that the Xu family has come to the noble people seems to have grown wings in Xujia Village, and after a while, a bunch of idlers, women and children come to see the excitement.

About half an hour later, the old man of the Xu family led the family back from the official road with a cart.

"Uncle Xu, a noble person has come to your family. "When someone with good deeds saw Old Man Xu and others, he immediately stepped forward to pass the news.

Old Man Xu was shocked, quickened his pace, and soon arrived at the door of the house.

Seeing a few brown-clothed men at the door of the house, he immediately frowned, these people didn't look like good stubble.

When did their Xu family provoke these people? Old Man Xu was very uneasy in his heart.

"Dad, let's go back and ask. Xu Zhili glanced at Goro, who was also frowning, and said in a low voice.

Everyone came to the door, and they could only ask clearly, Old Man Xu nodded to a few people at the door: "Several, I don't know what you are here for? I am the head of this family." ”

The leader-looking family raised his eyelids and looked Old Man Xu up and down, and sneered: "Old man, you will know when you go in." ”

After speaking, he waved his hand and asked several other men to make way for Old Man Xu and the others.

Old Man Xu had no choice but to return home with a group of people.

Wulang originally wanted to follow him directly to the upper room to have a look, but he was stopped by Xu Zhili, saying that they would handle the affairs of the family, and their second room was separated, and they were all children, so don't follow it.

Gorou was uneasy, glanced at the wolfberries drying under the eaves outside the door, and then looked at the east wing with the door closed, but he didn't insist anymore.

In the upper room of the Xu family, Aunt Gao was spitting and chatting happily with Cui's, Zheng and others: "If you really arrive at Zhao Yuanwai's house, you can be regarded as a relative of Zhao Yuanwai, and you will eat and drink spicy food in the future, don't forget my sister-in-law Gao!"

"How can I forget your sister-in-law, if our family can really live such a good life in the future, we will definitely repay you well." Zheng's eyes narrowed with laughter, obviously very useful for Aunt Gao's compliment.

"Who is this?" After Old Man Xu saw Aunt Gao, who was wearing heavy makeup, his face suddenly changed.

"Ouch, is this Old Lady Xu?" Aunt Gao exaggeratedly covered her mouth and laughed twice, and said to Old Man Xu: "Old Lady Xu Wanfu, I am Aunt Gao sent by Zhao Yuan to make peace." ”

Hearing the words "Zhao Yuanwai", Old Man Xu's face suddenly became very ugly, and he glared at Xu Zhili fiercely: "Aunt Gao, I'm afraid you are going to run for nothing today, the thing you said is that I, an unfilial son, are making a claim." Our family didn't plan to send anyone to Zhao Yuanwai's house. ”
