Chapter 185: Passing the Word
In the days in the mountains, there are only two husband and wife, infinitely beautiful, Mo Xiaohe is a little reluctant to return to the town, even if Uncle Zhang is not an outsider, under the same roof, there is still a little bit of awkwardness, as if the psychology of modern newlyweds who are unwilling to live with their parents is almost the same, and they do not want others to interfere with their freedom. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
After two days in the mountains, the vegetables in the backyard also grew, Mo Xiaohe thought, when the few tricky things in front of her came to an end, she and her husband would live in the mountains for a while longer.
"Let's go, lady, we have to go back."
Before going out, he said to Uncle Zhang that he would come back for two days, and when the time had come, Gu Zheng cleaned the house, locked the courtyard door, and took Mo Xiaohe down the mountain and returned to Mojia Village.
The courtyard of the Mo family was just facing the back mountain, far away, standing on the hillside, Mo Xiaohe saw Mo Daya in the backyard, carrying a small bench to bask in the sun, which reminded her that a year ago, Gu Zheng was also on the hillside, and he would appear every day at a specific time, very regular.
Standing at this angle, Mo Xiaohe couldn't see her cousin's face clearly, so that the romantic gaze she once thought was just a beautiful fantasy for her.
"Little lotus!"
Mo Daya held her cheek with one hand, lazily, and her father and mother were very relieved, she slept well in the past two days, and she was not woken up by nightmares at night. And under the same roof as the old pious woman Li Er, she was about to go crazy, and she always had nightmares, dreaming that the old pious woman was holding a kitchen knife and cut open her stomach......
"Cousin, I'm going down the mountain!"
Mo Xiaohe waved her hand, and the two of them looked not far away, but in fact, Mo Xiaohe and Gu Zheng walked for another quarter of an hour before they arrived at the place, and after entering the courtyard, she entered the stove room familiarly, and there was warm water on the iron pot, she poured two large bowls, and drank water with her husband to quench her thirst.
The uncle and the aunt were not at home, because of the matter of Mo Daya, they went to the clan to find someone and said that they had not come back for the time being.
"What does that mean?"
The clansmen have just come back, and they may not understand the situation, so the uncle and the aunt may not be able to get a satisfactory answer to the clansmen, so it is better to write to Yingchuan and find someone to solve it.
Mo Daya hung her head and sighed lowly, her father and mother did their best, in the past two days, her mother and mother have become angry because of her affairs, and there have been several bubbles on her mouth, and she is not a taste in her heart, "What else can I say, it was my own indiscretion and I was expelled from the clan, and I also said it on the day of the expulsion, I will not be a member of the Mo family in the future, and life or death has nothing to do with the Mo family." ”
"It's not from the Mo family, but you are my relative, and this matter can't be counted like this anyway."
In general, Mo Xiaohe likes to turn a blind eye and don't need to worry about the details, but this time is different, her cousin was almost poisoned to death, and she and Gu Zheng were sued by the old goddess and Li Er on the charge of trespassing into the house, and they were sued in court, although in the end the two withdrew the case with a look in their eyes, it does not mean that they did not have a grudge.
There is also an unformed fetus, which is also a life, and it is so cruel and ruthless to get it down to satisfy the vanity of some people's beauty and beauty, which is really unconscionable!
While the two were talking, the eldest aunt ran back angrily, her eyes were red, and it could be seen that she was angry in the clan. As Mo Daya thought, her mother wanted to let the clansmen help seek justice, but she was prevaricated, and the last righteous words accused her of not educating her daughter well, saying that the eldest girl had died by herself and deserved it! Mo Daya deserves it, outsiders say this, Mo Xiaohe can accept it, who doesn't see the excitement in their hearts, everyone has bad roots, and they should learn to be tolerant, but it is the people of the clan who fall into the well, not only did they not help, but they also gave Mo Daya a stick!
"Woo, my poor girl, it's my mother who has no ability!"
The eldest aunt cried for two or three days, her eyes swollen into walnuts, and the eldest uncle squatted on the threshold smoking a cigarette bag and pot, the girl is important, but they still have a son, and they will rely on the clansmen in the future, and they dare not easily offend the clansmen.
"Mother, how can I blame you for this?"
Mo Daya felt remorse for being ignorant before, since she was pregnant, she could better understand the mood of being a mother, she shook her head, believing that good is rewarded, evil is rewarded, and the old goddess and Li Er have done a lot of evil, and they will definitely not be able to run.
There are still four or five days until August 23, the time is too short, and the uncle and aunt can't change anything, so it is better to let their family of three be peaceful for a few days and enjoy the next reunion.
There was a commotion at the door, Gu Zheng knew that the three of them were discussing countermeasures, he saw Li Er coming to the door and quickly stopped him.
Li Er stood at the gate of the courtyard and looked, the ancestral house of the Mo family was burned by the original village elders and thieves, just as the clansmen were about to move, the uncle's family did not continue to build a house, Li Er came to Mo Xiaohe's house for the first time, and stood outside the door for a while.
Mo Daya is not at home, it is not easy to be quiet for two days, there is no need to serve the stupid mother-in-law, he went to a small gamble a few handfuls, his luck is not bad, he used the money he won to go to the county's Chunmanlou, and saw the sister inside, charming and soft, delicate skin, and a pinch out of the water, but I don't know how many times better than the rough Mo Daya.
He longed for the night*, but unfortunately he had limited money, and the next morning, he was kicked out, and when he returned home, he was reminiscing beautifully, and his mother asked him to pick up Mo Daya home.
It's not a matter for the married girl to always live in her mother's house, and his mother is worried, afraid that Mo Daya will tell the truth, so what if the Mo family comes to the door? He'd come to find out.
"Brother-in-law, are you here to pick up your cousin?"
Mo Xiaohe held back his nausea and went out to greet Li Er, how blind his cousin was at the beginning, so that he could look at Li Er, with thief eyebrows and rat eyes, his eyes were dripping and rolling, and he looked like a sinister and cunning rat.
"Yes, the eldest girl is not in good health, my mother has been worried about not sleeping well for the past two days, and the family has her favorite fruits."
Li Er tugged at his sleeves, seeing that Mo Xiaohe had no special expression on his face, and his father-in-law didn't like to say much, so he nodded to say hello. Li Er's heart was a little more settled, he couldn't afford to offend the Mo family, so he was afraid that Mo Daya would talk nonsense.
"Well, you go in, my cousin is lying down."
The eldest aunt couldn't wait to go out and tear Li Er apart, she was persuaded to leave through the back door, her daughter was greatly wronged, and almost lost her life, she had to endure it, and her heart was like being cut off by a knife.
Mo Daya adjusted her facial expression, and after seeing Li Er, her eyes were surprised, "Husband, are you here to take me home?" ”
She doesn't want to go back, but she can stay in Mojia Village, under the nose of her father and mother, it will make it more difficult and sad for them, it is better to go back and continue to torture Li Er and the old Qianpo, with her, the two of them don't want to live a good life one day.
What cousin Mo Xiaohe said makes sense, if the clansmen don't care, just rely on themselves, work slowly, and find evidence, if she doesn't believe in evil, there is no royal law in this world?
In the end, the uncle and the aunt couldn't resist Mo Daya, and the wish to keep her daughter for a few more days was ruined, so Mo Daya got into the carriage and returned to the town with Mo Xiaohe.
There is no change in the family, the second elder is very happy to see the husband and wife come back, Aunt Zhang went out to buy a meal, and told Mo Xiaohe that someone came to the door yesterday, as if the surname was Qin, and he was a Chinese person.
"Qin Zhongren."
Gu Zheng reminded his wife that just before the Mid-Autumn Festival, Qin Zhong people pulled the strings and bought a yard for Mo Xiaohe's grandparents. And the funny thing is that this Qin Zhong man is a warm-hearted and willing to draw the strings, and introduced Lin Xiucai, who was a scribe in the yamen, to his uncle.
"I didn't say what to do, I thought there might be something, I said you will probably come back tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, and he may not come to the door."
After Aunt Zhang finished speaking, she hurriedly left with the vegetable basket.
"Husband, didn't we ask him to pay attention to the right shop for us some time ago, could it be that there is news?"
has seen the prosperity of the capital, Mo Xiaohe still likes the small town on the border of Dawu, although the people's aesthetics are somewhat different from her, but this does not affect her daily life, and she has no idea of making a fortune, she is comfortable enough here.
Buying a shop has long been on the agenda, do a little business, in order to help the uncle and aunt, subsidize some household use, as for opening a chain shop, become a time-honored brand, open all over Dayue and Dawu, she really doesn't have that much ambition.
"Yes, probably."
Opening a shop is not so simple, and she hasn't thought about what business her own lady will do, but Gu Zheng can't discourage Mo Xiaohe's enthusiasm, and proposes to go to Qin Zhongren to ask about the situation.
"I'll go too, the shop must be on the street, I'm going to have a look."
Mo Xiaohe grabbed Gu Zheng's arm, and before he could go out, he said Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrived, and Qin Zhongren came to the door with two snacks.
"I came here yesterday, and your husband and wife are not here, no, here again today."
Qin Zhongren didn't come to the door empty-handed, so he specially bought cakes, he sat under the big tree in the yard, and waved his hand, "Don't be busy, I won't go into the house, come to talk to you two about something." ”
"Is it a shop thing?"
Mo Xiaohe entered the door and brought a small pot of fruit to entertain people, and poured a bowl of herbal tea. Calculate the time, it is just autumn, if there is a suitable shop, it can be opened before the year, just make a fortune, and during the New Year, every household is not so provincial, and you can have a little spare money.
"There is a place in the shop, and I only came down this morning, but I came here yesterday, and it really wasn't because of the shop."
The location of the shop is good, facing the street, these do not need to be detailed, just lead people to see it, and the place where the husband and wife live is not conspicuous, but the husband and wife take out more than 100 taels, and they don't blink their eyes, so they know that they have a family background, but they are too low-key.
"You know the scribe of the Yamen, Lin Xiucai, right?"
Qin Zhongren took a sip of water, as a businessman, the first time he did the matchmaking business, he thought it was all done by his mother-in-law, the Lin family was familiar with him, a few days ago he went to the Lin family to drink, Lin Xiucai's father mentioned this matter, he was hot-headed, agreed on the spot, and only said to help run errands and pass the word.
"Yes."
Mo Xiaohe had a faint guess in her heart, she was silent, waiting for Qin Zhongren to continue.
"I was entrusted by Lin Xiucai's father and mother, and I wanted to ask for a question."
On August 14, Lin Xiucai and Lin Shuang went to Li's house for dinner, got a warm reception, and met Li Xiu, Lin Xiucai had a very good impression of her, and wanted to ask if there could be further development.
The Lin family wanted to take the initiative to come to the door to propose marriage, but they felt that it was too sudden, in case the Li family didn't mean this, their own family had no face, and they were afraid that the two families would make something unpleasant in the future.
"I can't give you an answer to this right away, I have to ask my uncle and aunt what they mean."
Mo Xiaohe coughed twice embarrassedly and looked at the direction of Feng Dachun's house, in fact, as a cousin, she really felt that Lin Xiucai was not bad, maybe she couldn't see anything on the surface, and she had to learn more.
"I used to be old neighbors with the Lin family, and I have been friends for more than ten years, otherwise I am a big man, and I can't run errands no matter how much silver I give."
Qin Zhongren mentions this, mainly because of favors, and Lin Xiucai, he almost watched him grow up, he is modest and kind, and he does not have the kind of pedantic, noble and contemptuous of a scholar.
The Lin family husband and wife are harmonious and rarely quarrel, in his impression, the number of red faces is small, I believe that the daughter of the Li family will definitely not be angry when she marries in the past, "Lin Shuang's personality is also good, and if she marries out in two years, she doesn't have to worry about the discord between her aunt and sister-in-law." ”
"Qin Zhongren, this trip is really hard for you."
Mo Xiaohe thanked again and again, the Lin family is very thoughtful, so through her, the words will be conveyed to the uncle and the aunt, if it doesn't work, it doesn't matter much, and it won't hurt your face.
"Lin Xiucai studied in his early years, so he didn't have the heart to say that his daughter-in-law, the Lin family is not demanding, just find someone who is reasonable and has a harmonious family."
If you meet a superb, every three or five moths, the family has no peace, the Lin family doesn't want to marry a daughter outside the door, they want to find a worry-free person who can live a good life with Lin Xiucai.
