Chapter 79: The Prosperity of the Big Dream Comes to Nothing
In this society, polygamy is very normal.
Sister Hu Chun felt powerless.
Forget it, since everyone doesn't care about it anymore, why does she bother to be idle anymore? The matter of the horizontal and vertical veils has also been explained clearly, and the rest of the things, what do they like, and she will not be idle anymore when the bitterness becomes Qiong Yao's play. Sister Hu Chun pondered like this.
Over there, Hu Jianniang looked at Wang Lihua condescendingly, and it was difficult to hide her disgust in her voice: "I don't care about you hooking Brother Bo." But you have to know that my Hu Jianniang will marry into the Long family in a beautiful way and become Brother Bo's wife. Well, if you want to enter the door of the Long family, being a urinal is already lifting you. ”
As soon as Hu Jiang heard this, he realized that the person Hu Jianniang was talking about was actually Wang Lihua.
She couldn't believe it, looked at Wang Lihua, and then looked at her fair-skinned and beautiful daughter. Even Hu Jiang, who had just persuaded his daughter to be a big deal, was uneven with his daughter.
The young master Long's eyes are also not good, she still thinks that she has seen some kind of immortal!
When Wang Lihua heard Hu Jianniang's words, although she was also faintly uncomfortable, she might enter the door of the Long family and become Long Yubo's concubine, and she didn't have to marry the widower Wu Hemp to be the stepmother of the little lady, she knew enough.
Wang Lihua was stunned for a while, and when she saw that Hu Jianniang didn't respond, she began to glare angrily, and hurriedly said in fear: "If I can enter the door of the Long family, I will be satisfied." ”
Hu Jianniang descended from her nose.
Wang Lihua, who listened again, asked softly: "Jiao Niang, are you making an appointment with Brother Long today? I have an appointment with Brother Long tomorrow." ”
As soon as Hu Jianniang heard this, her jealousy overflowed again, and she looked at Wang Lihua viciously: "You are not allowed to go tomorrow! I will call Brother Bo to the family today to discuss the family affairs of the two of us, and when we get married, we will talk about your affairs!"
"But, it's ......," Wang Lihua said softly and aggrievedly, "My father and mother want to marry me to Wu Haoyan, and I still have to discuss countermeasures with Brother Long." ”
Hu Jianniang's unintelligible Wang Lihua's words revealed her closeness to Brother Bo, and screamed: "I'm talking! Don't go! Even if you enter the door, you're nothing more than a little concubine, and you dare not listen to me?!"
Wang Lihua shook Hu Jianniang's sharpness in fright, shrunk her body, and said unwillingly: "Jiao Niang, the two of us, our family is not much different." Why are you so sure you can be big?" she thought, everyone is from Hujiazhuang, all of them are rural farmers who farm. She is willing to be a little one for Brother Long, that is, Brother Long will marry the daughter of a big family as a wife sooner or later. At this moment, the wife that Brother Long wants to marry is actually Hu Jianniang, who is close to her, and Wang Lihua's heart is a little indescribable.
Hu Jianniang, who was poked by Wang Lihua's words, almost called out that she was pregnant, but thanks to Hu Jiang's pinching her, she was embarrassed at this point.
Hu Jiangshi sneered, and replied for Hu Jianniang: "Pear Blossom, look at what you said, it's too unseemly." To put it mildly, your family can't compare with our family, and you can't compare with our family. This is not my boasting, ten miles and eight towns, who doesn't know that our family Hai Ge'er will sooner or later win the tribute, glorious lintel, your family is just a small farmer, how can you compare with our family? In this comparison, you can tell me about it, our lady is not a big girl, could it be you?"
The most important thing is that our delicate mother is still pregnant with the eldest grandson of their Long family. Naturally, Hu Jiang didn't say this.
She looked at Wang Lihua with burning eyes, her words were straightforward and not good, Wang Lihua shrank a little bit when she heard a sentence, and shrunk a little bit when she heard a sentence.
Hu Jiang's Hu Jianniang was very comfortable to hear this, she looked at Wang Lihua with joy, and made a disdainful "Heng" sound in her nose: "Even like you, you are embarrassed to ask me why I am big?"
Wang Lihua is only resigned.
Sister Hu Chun couldn't stand it anymore, she lifted the bamboo curtain and was about to go out, but she ran into the old beard and Hu Xinzong carrying a seed cloth bag with the smell of pesticides, and entered the house in a panic. As soon as the old beard entered the courtyard, he shouted: "Old woman, come out quickly." ”
Hu Jiang pushed Sister Hu Chun, who was standing by the door of the house, and left a sentence of "Good dogs don't get in the way", and ran past her like a gust of wind: "What's wrong old man?"
Sister Hu Chun stumbled a few steps before she stood still.
"Has anyone in the family caused trouble recently?" The old beard had a swollen face, and he was a little panting when he ran, he wiped the sweat on his head with his sleeve, and asked Hu Jiang anxiously.
"Nope. Hu Jiang's instinctive reply, a little flustered, "What's the matter, why are you running like this with the boss?"
Hu Xinzong put the seed cloth bag in the corner of the courtyard, and his lips cracked a little: "Someone in Shicai Village came to me and told me that there was a boy in the village, with more than a dozen attendants, who asked for the address of our house, and saw that the battle was not very good! ”
Hu Jiangshi froze, as if he remembered something, and turned his head viciously to Sister Hu Chun, and his voice was sharp: "You broom star, are you causing trouble? I can tell you, if you do something, don't drag down our family! You have already split up and passed away, and your family is not a family! We can't afford to share any benefits with you, don't expect it! Don't think about pulling us into the water if there is any disaster!"
Sister Hu Chun only felt that it was incomprehensible, but she still had the backbone to say: "You can rest assured, now I call you a milk is nothing more than a convenient title." I don't realize that I am a family with you. ”
Hu Jiang's heart was a little calm, and his nose was Heng.
Lao Hu Tou and Hu Xinzong saw Sister Hu Chun talk like this, and their hearts were a little settled.
When the old Hu Tou entered the door, he screamed so loudly and urgently, and the rest of the Hu family, except for Hu Lucheng, who was lying on the kang, almost all came out to see the end. Even Wang Lihua followed Hu Jianniang out of the house. She seems to have received the fact that Hu Jianniang is the big and she is the small, and she honestly follows Hu Jianniang behind her.
Hu Jianniang frowned: "Father, eldest brother, what happened?"
The old beard was squatting in the courtyard and washing his hands, and he didn't raise his head and said, "It's nothing." Didn't your mother say that you were going to call that Young Master Long to the house as a guest today? Hurry up, don't ask people to wait for a hurry. ”
"No, I'm here. ”
A slightly heavy sound sounded, and only a young man with a golden waist and brocade boots on his feet, with a heroic appearance, entered the courtyard.
Behind him, he was also followed by two teams of well-behaved attendants, with more than ten people, who were extraordinarily magnificent.
When they heard this, the people in the courtyard were shocked, and the person who saw them again was shocked again, and they were all shocked by the grandeur of the people who came.
Sister Hu Chun only felt that the person who came was very stylish, and at a glance, she looked like an elite, and there were almost four big characters written on her head:
"I'm a local tyrant!"
It was Hu Jiang's overjoyed to break the tranquility: "This is Young Master Long......? Jiao Niang, what are you still doing, why don't you invite Young Master Long into the house and sit down?"
She wanted to push her daughter, but when she saw her dazed look, she said confusedly: "This is not Young Master Long!"
Wang Lihua also nodded like a chick pecking rice: "This is not Brother Long." Maybe it's the son of the other family who confessed to the mistake. ”
Hu Jiang is also a little confused, it's not Young Master Long, so why do you answer indiscriminately?
Although she was unhappy, she looked at the two rows of attendants behind Young Master Long, Hu Jiang was much more honest, and coughed lightly: "Childe probably entered the wrong door." ”
The golden-waisted boy asked, "Aren't you looking for Young Master Long?" ”
Sister Hu Hui ate and laughed, intending to show off in front of this rich young master, she said softly: "It turns out that the son is also surnamed Long." It's just that the young master Long who our family is going to pick up is the eldest young master of the main family of the colorful satin village in the county, and the surname Long is Yubo, who is my future brother-in-law. ”
The golden-waisted boy laughed.
He was born very good, and this smile made the whole courtyard almost shine.
The golden-waisted boy casually pulled the pendant around his waist, and said slowly: "By the way, I haven't introduced myself yet." My surname is Long, and my name is Yubo. It is the eldest young master of the colored satin owner family in your mouth. ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the courtyard who listened to them was stunned.
Hu Jianniang was even more out of the sky: "No, no, you're not Brother Bo!" looked like a ghost.
Wang Lihua was also shocked, looking up and down at this golden-waisted boy.
Speaking of which, this golden-waisted boy is really more imposing than Brother Long......
Could it be?!
Even Wang Lihua thought about that possibility, and her face turned pale in an instant.
Not to mention the rest of the house.
Except for Sister Hu Chun, who was looking at the cost of the golden-waisted boy with interest, the faces of the others were all as if they had seen a ghost.
The golden-waisted boy Tete glanced at Sister Hu Chun, and when he saw this, he gently bowed.
On the contrary, he didn't think that there was still a little lady of such color in such a poor and remote place.
The birth doesn't seem to be a village girl, but like the eldest lady who has been spoiled by some big families he has seen.
No, those big ladies, between their eyebrows are not as lively as this little lady.
Interesting. The golden-waisted boy thought about it like this, his mood could be regarded as slightly better, and he had no intention of teasing these people anymore, so he waved his hand: "Bring it up." ”
Then an attendant clasped his palms and fists in response to "yes", walked outside the courtyard, and soon brought in a bundle of people with a big bundle of flowers.
The man described his embarrassment and pushed him forward.
When he arrived in front of the person, the attendant pushed hard, but the man did not stand firmly, and fell to the ground, but he looked up and saw the golden-waisted boy standing in front of him, and the man didn't care about the pain, and hurriedly struggled to crawl over, grabbed at the feet of the golden-waisted son, and kowtowed to tears: "Young master, the young master is a little ghost-obsessed for a while, and the young master is gracious, young master." ”
Hu Jianniang and Wang Lihua were all on the spot as if they had been struck by thunder.
The man who describes the embarrassment and is begging at the feet of others is not inconvenient for their hearts!
"Chang, Brother Bo......" Hu Jianniang's lips trembled, her head was empty, looking at the humble and drooping man in front of her face, she felt as if she was dreaming!
Wang Lihua couldn't believe it and called softly: "Brother Long?!What are you?!"
The golden-waisted boy picked up the man's jaw with his foot, and Heng smiled: "Young Master Long of the Colored Satin Farm's family, you are very bold." ”
Long An cried a handful of snorts and tears: "Young master, the little ghost is fascinated for a while, and it is Long An's fault to use your name to come out and deceive a few little ladies to play!
These words made the faces of the people in the courtyard all look like they had seen a ghost, and they couldn't believe the man in the courtyard who was holding at the feet of others!
Hu Jiang felt that she was almost out of breath, and she pointed at the man underground with her fingers trembling: "Jiao Niang, he, he ?......"
Hu Jianniang screamed: "No! My brother Bo is the young master of the master of the colorful satin village! Brother Bo will not be blinded to me!"
Hu Jiangshi didn't come up in one breath, rolled his eyes and fainted.
"Mother!" Hu Jianniang screamed, and fainted with her stomach covered. Wang Lihua was startled, and instinctively went to pick up Hu Jianniang, she was also depressed, this time, she actually didn't stand firm, and she pressed Hu Jianniang under her body and fell into the courtyard, screaming in pain.
The Hu family in the courtyard was in chaos.
The golden-waisted boy, who is also the real Long Yubo, was slightly stunned when he saw this, and kicked the man who was picking up the ground again: "Look at the good things you did." ”
The fake Long Yubo, that is, Long An, burst into tears: "Young Master, it's true that the little ones deceived them, but can you blame me." They all swear that they love me, so what does it matter if I am you or Long An?"
This man, he still doesn't forget to quibble in this scene!
Even if Hu Jianniang and Wang Lihua are in love with wealth and nobility, but you are still justified in playing with your feelings like this, and even deceiving others' bodies? !
Long Yubo groaned softly and did not speak.
Sister Hu Chun couldn't be angry, the little lady was wearing soft shoes with embroidered soles, jumped forward and began to run over Long An on the ground: "I call you Mengren! I call you Mengren!"
Long Yubo was dumbfounded.
It's really different from those big daughters, and it's too fierce......
Hu Xinzong, who reacted in a moment, also rushed up, unlike Sister Hu Chun, he picked up the iron rake in the courtyard and rushed up. It's just that before he got close, he immediately stopped Long Yubo's attendant: "No, it's rude!"
Hu Xinzong gasped angrily: "You villain! my little sister is in the belly, my little sister is in the belly!" He couldn't go on, but he had nowhere to vent the resentment in his chest, and stabbed the iron rake into the ground fiercely.
Long Yubo glanced at Long An, who was kicking and kicking Sister Hu Chun underground, and was dying, and waved his hand with a headache: "Drag him down first." ”
An attendant responded and dragged Long An away.
Long Yubo looked at Hu Xinzong, and said gently: "He is really a relative of our family's distant branch, and he still has to go to the clan elder to see how to deal with it." Now, if you beat him to death, there is really something I can't explain. His voice was unusual, but the condescension in his words still required some instinctive fear from a small person like Hu Xinzong, he opened his mouth, and he really didn't know what to say about his sister's condition.
Is it his sister-in-law who is fornicating with someone, not with this son!
Hu Xinzong hugged his head in annoyance.
After the old beard over there pinched Hu Jiang's people for a long time, Hu Jiang's woke up slowly, and as soon as he woke up, he thought, "The father of the child in Jiao Niang's belly, isn't it Young Master Long?"
The old beard didn't speak.
Hu Jiang understood, rolled his eyes and was about to faint, and woke up with a slap on the face to the old beard: "All of them are good girls you taught!"
Hu Jiang howled: "My bitter daughter!"
At this moment, her hard-working daughter has woken up slowly, probably just taking the effect of fetal pills, and she has not seen red. Seeing that she was awake, Wang Lihua pushed her away and cried: "This time, you don't want to be big, and I don't want to be small." ”
Sister Hu Hui was so frightened by this battle that she shrank in Xiao Jiang's arms and didn't dare to speak, and Xiao Jiang thought that her son would have another less help in the future, and her heart was also uncomfortable.
Fortunately, this time, the attendants brought by Long Yubo were too deterrent, and the people in the village did not dare to follow up on the people watching the play in the main courtyard, but they just listened from a distance, listened to a word and said, and pointed and pointed, but they didn't lose much face.
Wang Lihua wiped her tears, got up from the ground, and walked out: "My home is gone...... My marrying Wu has a hemp face......"
She knew she was deceived!
Count on that liar, or not count on Wu Hemp's face!
Listening to the voice of Hu Jianniang's family, Hu Jianniang was deceived even worse, as if she was pregnant!
Compared with the two, I am good. Wang Lihua comforted herself. She was cringinge, she wasn't even in the mood to question the liar why he lied to her.
She remembered that afternoon, when she was crying in the field, the man stopped beside her and held her face: "Lady, why are you crying?"
Wang Lihua snorted and wiped her face again.
No one in the courtyard stopped Wang Lihua, so she went out with swollen eyes and wiped her face.
The mood of everyone in the courtyard was calmer, and the real Long Yubo followed them into the main room.
How to say that this matter of being emotionally deceived was also done by others under his banner, and with his temperament, it must be properly handled.
Sister Hu Chun was not interested in this, and slipped away with oil on the soles of her feet. The little brother and sister said no, and they would come back for lunch soon, so she still had to go and cook for the little brother and sister in a hurry.
"I recently disposed of a business and went somewhere else," Long Yubo sat on the upper seat with a calm expression, "When I came back yesterday, when a few little brothers picked me up in the evening, one of my little brothers surnamed Zeng said congratulations on becoming a father. After asking like this, I learned that someone in Hujiazhuang was pregnant with the child of 'Long Yubo'. ”
These words came out of the mouth of the real Long Yubo, and Hu Jianniang, who listened to it, was really ashamed, and it was good to die if she hated it.
“...... I investigated the matter overnight, and only then did I realize that a distant relative had borrowed my name and deceived someone. Early this morning, I ordered people to arrest them and make a clarification. Long Yubo arched his palms.
Hu Jiang said hatefully: "You can't just forget it like this...... That man was truly hateful. ”
The old beard took a fierce puff of the big smoke pot, and said slowly in the smoke ring: "...... Young Master Long, that person's name seems to be Long An?
Hu Jiangshi and Hu Jianniang understood the meaning of Lao Hu Tou's words, and they were all stunned. Hu Jianniang screamed: "No, I don't want to marry that liar!"
"Shut up!" the old beard was furious, and he snorted fiercely, "If you don't marry him, what can you do!
Hu Jianniang was stunned, as if the whole person had been drained of her soul.
Yes, now that she doesn't marry him, what can she do?
Long Yubo seemed to sigh: "He already has a wife and a daughter at home. He glanced at Hu Jianniang, "If Ling Ai wants to marry, she can only be a concubine." ”
Hu Jianniang said in despair: "No, I won't be a concubine for him!
The old beard knocked on the table with a big smoking pot, and said impatiently: "You can't help it." ”
Hu Jiangshi suddenly eased her mind, and she looked at Long Yubo with two points of earnest expectation: "Young Master Long, that deceives ...... What about Long An, what is the situation at home?"
She still has a glimmer of hope for the last, maybe, this Long An is also a wealthy family? Didn't she look at Young Master Long and say that Long An was his distant relative?
Long Yubo looked at Hu Jiang insightfully, with a faint expression: "It's just enough to make ends meet." ”
Hu Jiang fell back to his seat in despair.
This time, even the old beard was silent.
How can a family that is only enough to make ends meet marry a concubine?
Don't talk about the dowry, it is estimated that the Hu family will lose a lot of money!
Xiao Jiang seemed to be angry, and opened his mouth softly: "We can sue that liar in court! ”
Hu Xinzong nodded, and Jue's daughter-in-law said very much.
"Shut up!" Hu Jianniang screamed, "You can't sue the official, you can't!
Yes, everyone will know that she Hu Jianniang is shameless, she is privately taught and accepted by others, and she is pregnant before marriage! Xiao Jiang lowered his head and gently covered the sneer at the corner of his lips, it turns out that you also know what shame is!
"Okay!" the old beard knocked his cigarette stick impatiently, "What do you sue him?
In the end, Hu Jianniang volunteered to have a relationship with someone!
He deceived her feelings with a false identity, but this is not against the law!
Hu Jianniang curled up in despair and curled up on the pestle.
Long Yubo seemed to have a unbearable face, turned his head and whispered something to the attendant standing on the side, and the attendant respectfully took out a silver ingot from his arms and put it on the table. Long Yubo gestured with his eyes: "Although this matter has nothing to do with me, but in the end, Long An also borrowed my name, which can be regarded as a reason." You should accept this money, it should be for Ling Ai to replenish his body. ”
Long Yubo got up and said goodbye.
When he came to the door, Long Yubo remembered something again, and said, "By the way, I have already given him the 19 taels of silver that the young master of the Zhongzeng family advanced yesterday." You don't have to pay it back, just take a piece as compensation. After speaking, Shi Shiran left.
In the main room of the Hu family, everyone looked at the departing figure of the golden-waisted boy and fell into silence.
Only Hu Jianniang seemed to have caught some life-saving rice, and her face was also angry: "By the way, there is still Zeng Gongzi ......"
That night, Hu Jianniang poured a bowl of abortion medicine, which hurt for half the night, and fell into a lump of flesh and blood.
Hu Jianniang didn't dare to look at all of them, her whole body seemed to be fished out of the water, and her whole body was covered in sweat. Hu Jianniang waved her hand angrily at Xiao Jiang's family, and fell asleep on the earthen kang.
Xiao Jiang looked at the lump of flesh and blood, smiled coldly, and wrapped it tightly in his old clothes with a cloth pad, and silently thought in his heart: Child, if you want to complain about you, you will complain about your shameless mother.
Hu Xinzong took advantage of the night to bury this ball of flesh and blood in the field, and burned some paper, which was regarded as the completion of this bloodline.
In this way, the wind and waves were calm for a few days.
On this day, an incident happened that added another wave to life.
The two chickens in the second room died.
Sister Hu Xia is very sad, she often helps her eldest sister feed the chickens on weekdays, and she also has two feelings for these two chickens, and her crying eyes are all a little swollen. Brother Bin'er also sometimes catches some small insects and ants for the two chickens, and sometimes runs with the two chickens in the yard. The death of these two chickens, Brother Bin'er was also red-eyed, and he suffered for a while.
The family didn't know why the two chickens died suddenly.
Sister Hu Chun is also a little weird, the feed fed to the chickens in recent days is no different from the beginning, all of them are some camellia leaves mixed with bran, so why don't you eat bad stomach.
Could it be that it has been cold in recent days, and these two chickens can't stand it?
Sister Hu Chun was weird, coaxing her little brother and sister, and agreed to buy them a few more chicks to raise.
Brother Bin rubbed his eyes: "I still want a duckling...... Little Goose ......"
"Stop, stop, refuse to raise geese. Sister Hu Chun had a headache when she heard the goose. The combat effectiveness of this goose is too high, and the beak can leave a large piece of red and purple when twisted. When she was a child, she once ran all over the village to chase a big white goose that could be called a social goose, crying in pain, and this matter was taken out by the aunt in the village, and she laughed at her for several years. This really left an indelible impression on Sister Hu Chun.
"That's fine, let's raise chicks and ducklings. Hu Bincheng smashed his mouth and made an order.
It's just that the death of these two chickens also reminded Sister Hu Chun that the cold is easy to get sick, and she took good care of her little brother and sister.
Sister Hu Chun planned to lose the two chickens, so she took her little brother and sister to the county town to make a few clothes and pick a few little chickens and ducklings to come back.
Ah, how can she say that she is now worth more than 20 taels, and it is really drizzle to buy a few beautiful clothes.
Sister Hu Chun took a hemp rope, carried the chicken upside down, tied the four legs like this, the knot was strong, and she walked out of the yard with it.
Sister Hu Chun didn't know how this chicken died, so she didn't dare to eat the meat of this chicken. If the chicken is sick and they eat it, what can they do?
I met the villagers on the road, and greeted Sister Hu Chun with a narrow smile: "Spring girl, who are you sending chickens to?"
Sister Hu Chun replied with a smile: "Aunt Zhu, these two chickens somehow died this afternoon, and our family didn't dare to eat them, so we planned to lose them." ”
Aunt Zhu covered her mouth and urged repeatedly: "Eh, it's the plague chicken that can't be said." Indeed, this is not to be eaten, so it is better to throw it away quickly. If you throw it in the garbage, maybe someone will pick it up," the man gave the idea, "or you should throw it in the stinking ditch over there." ”
