Chapter 008: Grandpa Fire (2)

Grandpa Huo's care for Liu Min, an orphan with no father and mother, was even more attentive, and today at noon, Grandpa Huo saw Liu Min walking down from Changbo Mountain with a large bundle of chopping firewood on his back; Tears welled up in his eyes, and he rushed to her in a panic.

Liu Min went to Changbo Mountain to collect firewood for three days without news, and Liu Er and his wife Xiao Hongping were indifferent; Grandpa Huo was anxious from morning to night, and he asked his son Buffalo to go to the mountains to look for it; The buffalo came back and said that there was no clue, and Grandpa Huo wondered if something had happened to Liu Min.

Grandpa Huo sat in front of the tavern and thought wildly, but when he saw Liu Min coming back with a heavy bundle of firewood, he walked up to her with sadness and joy and asked her where she had been in the past three days.

Liu Min made up a beautiful lie, saying that he got lost in the mountains and was delayed for three days; It was not easy to come out.

Grandpa Huo sighed, thinking that Liu Min's child was only seven years old; Not to mention staying at Liu Er's house to be a gas bag, Xiao Hongping tortured her all the time.

Liu Min's mother entrusted Grandpa Huo when she died, asking him to take care of Liu Min; said that after he left, if the child suffered, let Grandpa Huo find a way out.

Liu Min is a girl, and the only way out is to find an in-law as soon as possible.

It happened that Gong Mei, a silversmith in Gongjiawan, told Grandpa Huo that the wife of the main house was too domineering and wanted to ask for a concubine; Grandpa Huo connected Liu Min with Gong Mei.

Grandpa Huo and Gong Mei's father, Gong Lao Silversmith, are brothers, and Gong Xiao Silversmith kept in mind as soon as he said that he would take a concubine.

Seeing Liu Min suffering, Grandpa Huo said that she was asked to be a concubine for Gong Mei; Ask Liu Min if she is willing.

Liu Min was already the consciousness of a doctor of medicine in the 21st century, so naturally he did not refuse Grandpa Huo's kindness.

Grandpa Huo knew Gong Xiao Silversmith, who was just in his early twenties, shrewd and capable; When his father, the old Gong silversmith, was alive, he asked for a wife room for the Zheng family, but the Zheng family was flying and domineering, and the little Gong silversmith didn't like it very much.

Because of the 360 days a year, Gong Xiao silversmith was out doing silver work for 350 days.

Although Liu Min was only seven years old, he first gave Gong Xiao Silversmith a child daughter-in-law; It is also a beautiful thing to have a round house after the age of 13.

Seeing that Liu Min did not object to his proposal, Grandpa Huo went to the donkey's head weir to tell Gong Xiaosilversmith about it.

The donkey head weir is not far from the cypress forest, and Grandpa Huo walked half the way and suddenly remembered that Liu Min had been missing for 3 days; When they got home, Liu Er and Xiao Hongping would definitely not be treated, so they rushed back to their son's fire buffalo's tavern and specially advised; asked the buffalo to go to Liu Er's house to vent Xiao Hongping and Liu Er's fire in the name of buying chopping firewood; By the way, I helped Liu Min, and this happened that the fire buffalo gave Liu Min two taels of silver.

Grandpa Huo arranged for his son Fire Buffalo to stop, and rode a jujube red horse to the donkey's head weir; I saw Xiao Gong silversmith and told Liu Min about it.

Gong Xiao Silversmith heard that Liu Min was only seven years old, and felt that he was too young and thorny, so he was slapped by Grandpa Huo's rear air nest.

Grandpa Huo and Gong Silversmith's father, Gong Lao Silversmith, are close friends, and he can't say half a word when he teaches Gong Xiao Silversmith a lesson.

Gong Xiaosilversmith was slapped by Grandpa Huo, and said with a grin: "Gong Mei has to obey the things arranged by his father-in-law!" ”

Gong Xiaosilversmith called Grandpa Huo his father-in-law, and finally said: "But the eldest lady of the Lu family in Donkey Headyan will get married at the end of the year, and the boy is giving dowry jewelry to others, and after he is busy with his life, he will go to the cypress forest to find his father-in-law!" ”

Grandpa Huo thought for a while and said, "Liu Min, this child is beautiful, and he must be a beautiful embryo when he grows up; This child has suffered since he was a child, and he can do anything, and it is good to be a helper by your side; If you give twenty taels of silver, the old man will definitely be able to find Liu Er to get things done! ”

Seeing that Grandpa Huo was so enthusiastic, Gong Mei said a little gratefully: "Father-in-law, Gong Mei listens to you for everything; Do what you say! ”

Gong Mei said, took out twenty taels of silver and handed it to Grandpa Huo, "The matter is so decided!" Grandpa Huo, you can make specific arrangements! ”

Grandpa Huo got Gong Mei's truth, rode a jujube red horse and a whip to rush back to the cypress forest; Tie the horse to the courtyard of his son's buffalo's tavern, drive to the front hall, and ask if the buffalo has gone to Liu Er's house.

Seeing that Daddy rushed back, the fire buffalo laughed and said, "Daddy, you are really Zhuge Wuhou who can pinch and calculate!" The buffalo had already returned from Liu Er's house, but when he entered his house, he saw Liu Er's dead dog drunk and lying unconscious in the yard. ”

After a pause, he raised his arm and said, "Xiao Hongping stipulates that Liu Min must get 50 catties of dry firewood every day!" A seven-year-old girl carrying 50 pounds of firewood on her back from Changbo Mountain to the cypress forest, the weight of even a strong young man like a buffalo would be tired and panting, but ......"

The fire buffalo said, his eyes filled with tears; raised her broad palm to wipe her head and continued: "The woman weighed Liu Min 55 pounds, and the specified weight of the day was more than enough, but she said that Liu Min had been missing for three days and still owed debts; was about to be beaten, Liu Min begged bitterly that she would make up for the three pounds in three days! ”

Grandpa Huo let out a long sigh and said, "It seems that Liu Min, this kid, can't stay in Liu Er's house anymore, but the old man rushed to Donkey Head Weir to see Gong Mei; He promised to let Liu Min be his concubine! ”

The fire buffalo was a little surprised, stared at Grandpa Huo and said, "Daddy, Liu Min is only seven years old......"

Grandpa Huo interrupted his son's words: "Be a child daughter-in-law first, and then be a concubine at the age of 13!" ”

"That's fine!" The fire buffalo echoed the grandfather on fire, and picked up the previous words: "Liu Er was drunk and lay in the yard like a dog, and the buffalo negotiated with the woman to buy firewood; I paid 20 wen for the bundle of firewood I brought back to my sister, and the woman said that she didn't have 50 wen to take it; Before I finished speaking, as soon as the ditch was screwed into the inner room and ignored me, I took the opportunity to give Liu Min two taels of broken silver! ”

"Buffalo, you're doing the right thing!" Grandpa Huo praised his son and said, "Liu Min's child is really hard! ”

"Who says it isn't!" The buffalo picked up his father's words: "Liu Min is kind, seeing Liu Er lying drunk in the yard, he said that he would make a bowl of tea for sobering up; She didn't agree, and was pickled by the buffalo saliva! ”

The buffalo stretched his neck and swallowed a mouthful of saliva as he spoke: "My sister went to the kitchen to make tea, and I continued to negotiate with the woman about buying firewood, saying that she would give 50 wen if she wanted 50 wen, but Liu Er's 30 wen wine money owed in the tavern had to be deducted; So I only gave the woman 20 yuan and left! ”

Grandpa Huo couldn't help laughing when he listened to his son's chatter about the process of going to Liu Er's house; Said: "It's really a thing to descend a thing, a lama to descend a monster!" ”

Grandpa Huo and his son Buffalo were in the tavern for a while, and said that I had to go to Liu Er's house; Then he hurried over.

shouted "Liu Er" without entering the door, and when I entered the door, I saw Liu Er, the woman and Liu Min angry at each other, and I didn't know what was going on!

Grandpa Huo walked slowly to the three of them and asked unreasonably: "Are you a saf!"

When Xiao Hongping, the woman of the woman, saw Grandpa Huo walk in, she suddenly sat on the ground with a "pop", slapped the ground with her hand and cried; babbled about his grievances: "Uncle Renfu, you have to call the shots for us!" ”

Grandpa Huo was confused by Xiao Hongping's crying and asked her about the child; You can't tell it well; What a system to cry and make trouble.

Xiao Hongping stood up suddenly, pointed her finger at Liu Min and said, "The thief woman has been missing for three days and has become a sperm!" I slapped the slave family a few times just now, Brother Renfu, look at it, the slave's face is still swollen......"
