Chapter 67: Peach Blossom Village

The next day, they set off from Su Houfu early, and after a short half a day, Su Huayue and his entourage found the Peach Blossom Village referred to by the innkeeper that day in the suburbs of Beijing.

The location of Peach Blossom Village in the suburbs of Beijing is still remote, although the village is rich in the famous peach blossom wine within a radius of ten miles, but there are not many people in the suburbs of Beijing who need wine, and the Great Liang State has experienced several years of frontier war turmoil, and the national strength is relatively strong, so Peach Blossom Village is still very barren now.

In her previous life, after Mengniang followed Su Huayue to make a fortune in business, she also sold the peach blossom wine of Peach Blossom Village to the capital, because of the good sales, and later drove Peach Blossom Village to become richer.

But these are just Su Huayue, who Mengniang told her verbally. When she met Mengniang in her previous life, it was when Su Huayue was in dire straits in the Ming Palace, and she didn't really come to Peach Blossom Village with Mengniang to see it in her spare time.

Peach Blossom Village is full of low houses and yards, each yard is planted with trees, and the villagers are either busy in front of the house, or washing clothes in front of a stream that flows through Peach Blossom Village.

Seeing Su Huayue and her party walking into their small village, they all looked at her curiously, and some of the people working in the fields even forgot what they were going to do.

Such a symbol, such a graceful, such a young lady-like woman is rare in their village.

In addition to the crowd on Su Huayue's side, the other end of the village was also being pointed at by many people in the village because of a farce.

"There is such a thing, how can I be considered half a daughter from childhood to adulthood, how can I do this?"

"Is it really Wang Pozi's doing? Could it be Mengniang'...... herself?"

"How can it be? Who is Mengniang, don't you still know? This money was sent to the Wang family, and it was not Mengniang who got it. ”

"I don't think Mengniang is an honest person, otherwise no one in the Hu family will look down on her, and she will be a master. ”

“......”

I saw that everyone was surrounded by a low courtyard, and there was a bald man with a grinning mouth full of yellow buckteeth in the courtyard, and next to him were two boxes tied with two big red flowers, and in his hand, there was a big red envelope full of casual packets.

The man was dressed in red clothes and trousers, according to the customs of the Great Liang Kingdom, this person came to propose to someone in this courtyard at a glance.

And in the courtyard, in addition to the man, there was also a very plump woman kneeling, and an old man and a woman standing opposite each other.

The woman kept kneeling and kowtowing to the two old men and said, "Dad, mother, for the sake of Mengniang serving your second elder for so many years, please don't marry Mengniang to Hu Ergou!"

The princess said: "Meng Niang, it's not for my mother to talk about you, what's wrong with these two dogs? You are also not young, Ying'er has not heard from you for seven or eight years, and I don't want to delay you for my mother!"

The woman said: "Mother, Mengniang doesn't care! Mengniang was born as a member of the Wang family, and died as a ghost of the Wang family. Mengniang also promised Brother Ying that she would always take care of your second elder, how could Mengniang break her promise!"

Mrs. Wang said: "Our two elders need someone to take care of them, but your life's major events are important, isn't it!

As soon as Mrs. Wang's voice fell, the prince who was on crutches beside her knocked on the crutches and said, "What are you talking about waiting for Ying'er! Old man, I think you just want to eat and drink for nothing in Wang's house! You were married to Ergouzi last night, such an unclean woman, Ergouzi wants you, it's your blessing! Don't say I don't know what Ying'er's situation is on the front line, even if he comes back, I won't let him want you, old man!"

After speaking, he gestured to Hu Ergou on the side.

Hu Ergou grinned, revealing a mouth full of big yellow buckteeth, and he didn't know what smell was mixed with his body, and he was about to pounce and hug the woman.

The woman screamed and dodged, but Hu Ergou didn't give up at all: "Daughter-in-law, you are my daughter-in-law!"

Mrs. Wang and Mr. Wang looked at Mengniang unwillingly, and didn't say a word, and even secretly thought about how to let this Mengniang be captured, so that they could take the gift money from the Hu family.

That's a full fifty taels of silver! There are two boxes of escorts, large and small!

That is, Mengniang was lucky to be favored by a stupid second dog who has a solid family background and has never been interested in women in her forties, and it happened that a fortune teller told the Hu family that Mengniang had a good face and was a life with great ability, and the Hu family spent a lot of money to ask their Wang family to marry Mengniang. If other girls in their village are in turmoil, they will give a gift of five taels of gold.

And if it weren't for the Hu family's willingness, Mengniang was so diligent, because Mengniang was there every day, whether it was the work at home or the work in the field, they rarely let the old couple interfere, and in the past ten years, they could be regarded as taking good care of their two elders, and they did not waste half of the money they spent on buying her in vain.

It's just that if you say that this dream girl has a good face.

The eyes are eyes, the nose is the nose, it is true that she is a little intriguing, in the past, she was also seen to be smart, and she was also a smart child, and the king of the family should be at the age of marrying a daughter-in-law in two years, and with their family background, they are afraid that they will not be able to marry a daughter-in-law easily.

At that time, it was also the time when the farm was busy, and it took money to ask someone to help with things, so I thought about buying Mengniang back first, giving her food and letting her help with farm work, and then raising it for another year or two to become a relative to Wang Ying, and a big fat boy, they would not lose money.

Facts have proved that although Mengniang was only eleven or twelve years old at that time, her diligence in her hands and feet was no less than that of any woman who had reached the end of her life, and even more than that of men of the same age. I usually eat less.

But the only drawback is that less than a year after Mengniang came to their house, Wang Ying went to join the army with a guy from the same village, so that Mengniang's marriage with Wang Ying did not work out, and they naturally did not have a big fat boy to hug.

I thought that I would earn money back in just two or three years, but now that nearly eight years have passed, Wang Ying and the other person have no news at all.

As parents, they are naturally anxious, but there is no way.

Mengniang has also been telling them that Wang Ying will come back, and they have been lying to themselves.

But they have been able to deceive themselves for three or five years, and now it has been eight years, in fact, how can they not be in a hurry.

Now that they heard the people of the Hu family tell them that Mengniang's face is good, they even wondered, could it be that because they bought this Mengniang and came back, they rejected their son, so that Wang Ying would never return?

With this kind of thought, and more importantly, the Hu family now wants to give them sky-high gifts, half a hanging money for fifty taels of silver, which they never dared to think of before!

No matter how well Mengniang treats them on weekdays, how can there be fifty taels of silver that they have never seen?

However, Mengniang was a little dead-eyed, and after they said that they wanted to marry her into the Hu family, they didn't agree. He said that he must wait until the king should return.
