Chapter 600: I Do
"Let Hui'er marry the fourteenth mother of the Gu family? That girl, can our family afford to climb high? Aunt Dong's sister-in-law heard it, although she was a little tempted, but she was full of doubts, "I heard that Secretary Lin ...... some time ago."
"I'm a county lieutenant now." Aunt Dong's eldest brother reminded.
"That's right, it's the county lieutenant Lin, I heard that the county lieutenant Lin wants to ask to marry as a concubine...... There is a lot of disturbance, Ah Shuang, you are the Gu family, you know best, is this thing true? Sister-in-law Dong asked with some concern.
If you want to compete with the county lieutenant Lin...... How dare they have a small Dong family?
Aunt Dong sighed and said, "This thing is true, and the matter of the Zhenguo General's Mansion is also true...... Our lord didn't want to marry Fourteen Niang as a concubine, so he asked me to come back and ask my eldest brother and sister-in-law's opinion. ”
"Then why didn't you promise the General's Mansion?" Sister-in-law Dong asked puzzledly, "No matter how powerful County Lieutenant Lin is, he should be afraid of the people in the General's Mansion, right?" We are small families, but we don't have the guts......"
"The most important thing is not here." Brother Dong is a man in the end, and he has seen more of the world than his wife, he groaned and asked his sister, "What do you old man mean?" Do you want our family's Hui'er to come to the door? ”
"Money? How can this work? Sister-in-law Dong exclaimed, "No matter how good that Fourteen Niang is, she is as beautiful as a fairy, and she will make money like the God of Wealth...... I can't let our family's Hui'er be a son-in-law! There are a lot of boys in our family, but there is only one such one! Our Dong family is counting on him, how can we do this......"
Aunt Dong ignored her woman's exclamation, looked at her brother silently, and nodded slightly.
What does this mean, that is, did you guess correctly?
Brother Dong's heart was suddenly extremely heavy. His eyes were blank, and he looked blankly ahead, as if the weight of life had overwhelmed him at once.
He slowly crouched down, covered his face with his rough hands, and began to cry lowly.
"What can I do? What can I do? Dong's sister-in-law also panicked, "They take care of their family, their wealth is big, let's Dong family, do some small business...... But how can you afford to offend? ”
But in order not to offend, can he give his family's most prosperous son, who can bring opportunities and hope to the family, to others as a son-in-law?
But what if you don't agree? Now Hui'er is still studying in the family studies of the Gu family!
"Can other children do it? Let's not talk about anything else in our family, there are a lot of sons! Suddenly, Sister-in-law Dong grabbed Aunt Dong's clothes desperately as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw, and said, "In addition to Hui'er, our family also has Chao'er, Chen'er, and Qiu'er......"
"Sister-in-law, master, what he likes is Hui'er." Aunt Dong looked at her brother and sister-in-law in such pain, and also cried and said, "Chao'er, the three of them...... is not worthy of the fourteenth mother, the lord will not agree. ”
"But what then! Ah Shuang, you are Hui'er's aunt, such a good child is going to be rich, can you bear it! In despair, Dong's sister-in-law scolded Aunt Dong, "Don't patronize your Gu family, forget, Dong family, but your mother's family!" You can't just to please your master, in the future, your master will sell all of your mother's family if you give you a little dowry! ”
"Say no more! Is this what Ah Shuang can call the shots? Suddenly, Brother Dong stood up suddenly, his eyes were red, and he roared angrily.
"You know you're murdering me! You know that you are murdering me! You have the ability, you have the ability, don't send your son to the Gu family to be a son-in-law! "Sister-in-law Dong is a woman in the market, and her most capable means is to cry, make trouble, and hang herself. Now that she had no other way, she came up with this trick again.
"Cry, cry, cry! You know crying! You're just crying to the sky, what's the use! Master Gu, can you just change this idea? Brother Dong shouted violently, and suddenly frightened Sister-in-law Dong and quieted down.
"Big brother, it's my sister who is wrong, my sister will tell my master when I go back, this matter, even if I die, I can't agree to ......come down," Aunt Dong said with tears in her eyes.
Originally, she didn't want to talk about it, but she had to come because of Gu Wang's order.
Then if you come here like this, you will be able to reply to him. Aunt Dong really wouldn't let her mother's most outstanding son and nephew become her son-in-law. Although she has married into the Gu family, she is only a concubine, not a wife. Her mother's family is her real foundation.
Brother Dong raised his hand to stop her: "You go back like this, your master asks, how do you answer?" Fifteen Niang is still so young, and it will take several years before she can say that she will marry...... What are you going to do? ”
"But even if that's the case, you can't just sell our Hui'er!" When Sister-in-law Dong heard her husband say this, she was anxious again.
"Don't meddle, okay?" Brother Dong yelled at his wife irritably, and then turned back to Aunt Dong and said, "I'll call the shots in this matter." Hui'er is now studying in their Gu family's ethnology, so she is under the control of their Gu family. Let's not read this book, Hui'er's article is doing well, let's spend more money, and other academies won't be able to enter...... Even if the husband is almost there, he can make up for it by reading for a few more years...... When you go back in a while, bring some apology gifts and talk to your lord well, I believe that he will not be angry with your mother and daughter regardless of the villain's ......faults."
"No, I don't agree!" Suddenly, someone shouted loudly from behind.
The three of them turned around in surprise, but saw Dong Chunhui, standing behind them with a white picture of you.
"Hui'er, when did you come?" Sister-in-law Dong hurriedly stepped forward and looked her son up and down carefully, for fear that something was wrong with him.
"Daddy, I agree to the marriage of the Gu family." Dong Chunhui ignored his mother's question, and just said to his father firmly.
Brother Dong was immediately furious and scolded: "Do you know what people want to do? I want you to come to the door to be a son-in-law! The children born in the future can't even be surnamed Dong! You did such a good job in your article, you will be an official in the future, and you will glorify your ancestors for your family, but your son-in-law can't even enter the door of the examination room! Neither can your son! No matter how talented you are, you won't be able to take the imperial examination until your grandson! in order to change back to the ancestral surname! How many generations of our Dong family have produced such a child who can read, and all the Dong people are counting on you to come out and take everyone with you...... Are you going to be so impulsive and abandon your whole family? ”
"Daddy, you don't know, the child can enter the Gu clan's clan to study, and it is the help of the Fourteenth Mother. If it weren't for the help of Fourteen Niang, the current children would be like Ah Chao and them, helping in their own shop, right? How could the clansmen have such expectations? Dong Chunhui still said lightly, "So now that Fourteen Niang is in trouble, my son must help." In fact, you all think too highly of your son, Master Gu asked his aunt to ask about it, not because he really wanted his son to be their Gu family's son-in-law, but just to defuse Lynn's aggressive offensive. ”
"You think too highly of your own son. Actually, my son, I'm just a little bit better than ordinary people. Gu Shi Niang, I don't deserve it. But I'm more than happy to be able to help her. ”
Dong Chunhui said lightly. There was a kind of light on his body, which made his parents and aunt stunned.
