Chapter 10: Searching for Relatives
In order to thank everyone for their encouragement and support, I will add more in the afternoon, and wish a happy May Day! Continue to ask for favorites and recommendations, I'm afraid that everyone will close it after reading it, so I'm verbose.

Guo Qin's three children were overjoyed when they heard it, and they cheered.
At this point, they can be regarded as determining the consequences of quitting their relatives.
Seeing that Sanxiao was so happy, Qingxiao also smiled.
These little ones are so cute!
This is the biggest gain she has gained from coming here, something she didn't have in her previous life.
Guo Shouye was a little uncomfortable, and hurriedly went back to the house first.
Here, Guo Daquan slapped Guo Qin and scolded: "What's it called?" That's it! Let's go, go with Daddy and catch ducks. Dumb, you go back and boil water. After saying that, he walked towards the water fence where the ducks were closed.
Qing Du also went to the kitchen to boil water and prepared to kill the duck.
The two elder brothers and two sisters-in-law went to the fields to pick cotton, and she and Wu did the housework. In previous years, she was left alone at home, but because she had an accident that night, the Wu family was still not at ease, so she also stayed at home to guard her.
When their brother and sister were busy, Guo Shouye told Wu in the upper room about the resignation just now: "...... At that time, I heard that Fukuda had done something ugly, and I was so angry that I wanted to kill him. Now that I think about it, I was fortunate to withdraw from my family. Didn't you hear what the little beast just said, blaming us for not leaving early, so that he fell short. It's really heart-to-heart, and I saw him wrong. Fortunately, Qingmu doesn't have to marry him. ”
Wu asked for details.
Guo Shouye told her carefully.
Wu Shi was furious when he heard this, gritted his teeth and said: "The old lady just wants to make him fall short of both ends!" Sorry for him! The blind beast does not know how thick the sky is! ”
Guo Shouye also snorted coldly, but he didn't say anything.
Wu scolded a few words in a low voice, and said: "It's all our fault for this, we are reluctant to marry our daughter far away, so we have to look for it in the village." There are only so many people in the village, how can there be anything good with the dumb and dumb people of the same age? The tallest man among the short men is still the same. I don't know if I'm wrong. ”
Guo Shouye listened to the second half of the sound before saying, "I'll talk about this in the evening." ”
Wu nodded, and Fang got up and went out to cook.
Guo Daquan caught a fat duck and killed it, and he took the initiative to take charge of the spoon.
She used home-brewed rice wine to remove the fish, added a little soaked bamboo shoot tips, and half a catty of old water chestnut - this thing was powdered like a chestnut in her mouth, and burned a large tile bowl. The duck meat is lined with green and red chili flakes, garlic cloves and green onions, and the color is attractive. Take a bite, the taste is crispy, slightly spicy, and very flavorful.
Half of the dumb came out, so the evening dishes were also settled.
On this day, the Guo family is as lively as the festival, although there are still some days before the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Everyone said that the duck was delicious, and everyone was satisfied.
After dinner, Qingdue went upstairs early again.
For the last few days, she had spent the night weaving in the next room, and she didn't go to bed until late. However, I didn't see how much brocade and cloth she weaved, and I didn't know what she was thinking. Everyone only thinks she is in a bad mood, and they don't force it, and she does whatever she likes.
Wu ordered his two daughters-in-law to put their grandchildren to sleep first, and then come to the room, she had something to discuss.
When the three sons and two daughters-in-law arrived, Guo Shouye, who was sitting in the hall, ordered: "Sit down." I have something to say to your mother. ”
Everyone hurriedly found a stool to sit on, then looked up, waiting for Daddy to speak.
Guo Shouye coughed and said to Wu, who was sitting opposite, "You speak first." ”
Wu Shi held the shelf and said: "I have been married to your father for decades, and I gave birth to you three brothers, and it is easy to have a dumb girl at an old age, and I usually feel more sorry for her." But the girl always has to get married, how many years can it hurt no matter how much it hurts? Your brother is also quite kind. But as the old saying goes, teeth and tongues still have to fight, and brothers and sisters are inevitably quarrelling. It would be better if there was an aunt who often went back to her mother's house and walked around and persuaded on both sides; The babies celebrate the New Year's holidays, and they also have a relative to lift their legs and feet, and they are not lonely. That's why I often say that when you're dumb in your mother's house, you should love her more as a brother and sister-in-law, and maybe she will be able to help you a lot in the future. ”
In this way, every time the second elder asks his brother and sister-in-law to do something for the dumb, he has to say it again. The words are ever-changing, but the meaning is the same, and their brothers understand it when they hear it.
At that moment, Guo Daquan said first: "If my mother has something, just say it." The three of us brothers are all just this one girl, and we can't wronged her. ”
Cai's mouth was fast, and he wanted to please his in-laws, so he rushed to flatter: "That's it." In the future, Qinwazi and Jian'er will rely on his aunt. ”
Wu was displeased when he heard this, and thought to himself that the three elder brothers, there must be more than three nephews in the future, all of them have to rely on their aunts, can they take care of themselves? She said that her daughters "may be able to help you a lot in the future", which means to help in times of emergency, but she doesn't want them to count on it from now on.
Therefore, she said with a straight face: "If the diligent baby herself is unproductive, she will not be able to rely on anyone." Besides, he has a father and a mother, and it is almost the same to rely on his father and mother; Counting on my aunt, I can't be dumb and self-defeating? ”
Cai was choked by her mother-in-law and couldn't speak.
Ruan's eyes drooped, and the corners of his mouth moved imperceptibly, and he returned to normal.
Guo Daquan saw his daughter-in-law patting the horse's legs, glared at her, and smiled at Wu's family: "Mother is right." The little baby can't be successful if he doesn't fight, the diligent baby and the thrifty baby, I have to discipline it well. When he is born in the future, he must be filial to his father and grandmother, and he must take care of his sister-in-law, then he will have the ability. ”
Wu was very satisfied with this set of rhetoric, and his face looked better.
Guo Dagui saw that the eldest brother was clever, so he reversed his sister-in-law's words and laughed out loud.
Guo Dayou was also funny, glanced at his eldest brother, and held back for fear that he would not be able to hang it on his face.
Guo Daquan was very embarrassed to see his two younger brothers like this. But he wasn't too embarrassed, he selfishly felt that as long as he made his father and mother happy, he was filial.
Guo Shouye doesn't pay much attention to these verbal disputes, and in this family, he is in charge of personnel.
He coughed and said, "Don't talk about that." I called you here with your mother for the sake of a dumb family. Today, I quit the Zhang family and want to find a new family for her. Must be better than the Zhang family! People must look good, have good character, and have a thick family background! ”
The old man first said the conditions for finding relatives, and the rest of everyone discussed carefully.
Wu nodded, "Yes." I blamed your father for the previous incident, and I was reluctant to marry my daughter far away, so I had to look for it in the village. It's not that I'm old and cheeky and boastful: In this group of male babies in our village, except for our family, it's not bad, but there is really no one decent-" Hearing this, everyone looked at Guo Dagui together, Guo Dagui smirked, and listened to his mother continue to blow-" I thought Zhang Futian was okay, who knew that it was such a thing. Fortunately, I didn't get married and retired. Since we have retired, we have to help Qingmu find another family. I've discussed it with your father first, as long as people are good, stay away. ”
His brother and concubine suddenly realized that they knew it in their hearts.
Originally, they also guessed that tonight was to discuss dumb family affairs, but they didn't expect that their father and mother would be able to ignore the distance this time, and the work that could be done would be greater, so they came up with ideas in a gossipy manner.
Cai's was in a hurry to show off, forgetting what he had just choked on, and hurriedly said: "The Jiang family next door to my mother's house, father, you all know, is a big family, and the family background is also thick. The last time I went back to my parents' house to see the third child of his family, it was the one named Jiang Minghui, whoa, now that he has grown up, he is handsome. I've been reading for a few years, and I look like a Sven scholar. ”
Guo Daquan nodded and confirmed: "Well, Jiang Minghui is a talent. ”
Wu's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "Then is he still studying?" Want to take the test? ”
Cai waved his hand and said, "Where is Xiucai so easy to test." He didn't read it. The Jiang family opened a bamboo shop in the town, the eldest and the second child farmed and made bamboo at home, and the third child took care of it in the shop, and the business was very good. Listen to my mother, the door-to-door marriage has broken the threshold. Alas, my mother is so angry that no one asks my brother. ”
Everyone listened very carefully and knew the key points of screening, so the last sentence was automatically omitted.
Guo Shouye nodded and said, "This is one." What else? ”
As he spoke, he set his eyes on the second couple.
Guo Dayou said: "The last time I was doing work in the town, I saw that the son of the landlord of Naluo was fine. ”
Ruan Shi thought for a while before saying, "I want to go back to my mother's house and ask, and then tell my mother if there is a suitable one." ”
Wu nodded, knowing that the second daughter-in-law was a person who did things safely.
Guo Dagui saw that everyone said it, he wanted to say it but there was no candidate, he was very embarrassed, and said, "I don't have anything to say." You know all the people I know......"
Guo Shouye interrupted: "I called you here to listen, you still need someone to help you say goodbye." ”
This is the rule of the Guo family, when a baby grows up, she must participate in the discussion of family affairs.
Because of this, the Guo family is very united.
Guo Daquan smiled: "Don't worry, Dagui. Your name is Dagui, and good things are yet to come. ”
Cai also smiled: "Third uncle, you will be very expensive in the future, don't forget to pull your sister-in-law." ”
Guo Dayou actually laughed and said: "Dagui, you just sit at home and wait, good things will come from heaven." ”
Ruan Shi smiled and said, "The third uncle is a blessed ......"
Guo Dagui was blushed by his brother and sister-in-law, and muttered: "Don't you talk about my little sister, how can you say that I will get up!" ”
Wu glanced at his youngest son and said, "You pulled it yourself, and it's a strange person." It's not that your mother doesn't care about you, you are a male baby, the richer the wealth you save, the easier it is to say goodbye; Your sister can't wait, she has to wait early, and she will be delayed after her age. ”
Guo Dagui hurriedly said: "Mother, I'm not in a hurry. ”
Everyone laughed in unison.
Guo Shouye coughed, and when everyone stopped talking, he said, "We can't find a good family at home." In this way, the eldest daughter-in-law and the second daughter-in-law, after a few days, when this crop of cotton is almost picked up, you will go back to your parents' house to inquire. There is a lot of everything, and you should pay attention to it. I'll tell your mother to ask the third aunt. No matter what, the three I said must not be compromised, otherwise don't mention it. ”
Everyone agreed in unison, and then dispersed without mentioning it.
Dumb and unaware that her family was busy with her life's events.
After retiring from her family, she was relaxed and lived an idyllic life wholeheartedly.
In the next few days, the Guo family was busy with the autumn harvest, and at the same time, they secretly searched for relatives for the dumb.
According to Guo Shouye's three points of "the family background should be thick, the character should be good, and the person should be good", everyone selected several families, compared and eliminated them, and finally set their sights on Jiang Minghui next door to Cai's mother's house.
So, before dawn on the second day of the eighth month, Cai went back to his parents' house in a hurry.
Twenty miles of waterway, take a boat in the morning and come back in the afternoon, one day is enough.
The Guo family has its own boat, and it is naturally convenient for Guo Daquan to go with her if he supports the boat. But today I went to the Jiang family to explore the situation, not to ask for relatives, if Guo Daquan went in person, the purpose was too obvious, just like the Guo family rushed to the Jiang family to propose, it would lose the face of the female family. Therefore, only the Cai family went back alone, and they should all go back to their parents' house to see their mother and younger brother.
Chua is very positive.
If this family is successful, she will have face in front of her in-laws.
