I don't know if I was frightened by Mei Tongsheng's words of "divorce my wife", or I was reluctant to give up the four taels or three coins of silver in my hand, Qiu's was honest. Even if he didn't meet Mei Xiaoba unintentionally, he couldn't wait to take a detour.

The matter of succession has finally come to an end.

This day is the day when the Gui family digs wells.

It was a man invited from the town, four people came, and the animal power they brought with them dug a well in the second room of the Gui family in the morning, and it was replaced by the old house of the Gui family in the afternoon.

The Gui family didn't make a big deal about it, but after all, it was a well dug, and even if it was a big fortification compared to building a house, it still needed some help. The Zhang family and the Yang family, who have a good relationship with the Gui family, have all come out, and many people have come to watch the excitement when others have not been greeted.

Mujia Village is only a dozen miles away from the canal, and there is no need to dig a deep well, and water can be produced ten zhang down. Rao is like this, and the salary for digging a well also costs six dollars. In the early years, Nakata could buy one acre, and Shimoto could buy three acres.

Because the Gui family drilled two wells a day, they talked about two wells and ten consistent money.

This well digger was found by Gui Wu, and this money was naturally from Gui Wu.

Gui Chongyang did not honor the elders in the second room, and took advantage of Gui Wu, and was very disappointed. However, what Gui Wu said also makes sense, Gui Wu was here at the age of 5, and he immediately moved to the town, not afraid of being harassed by me; If Gui Chongyang reveals his money and attracts people's peeps, there will be trouble one after another in the future.

The people of Mujia Village were stunned by Gui Wu's generosity, you must know that before this, the Gui family's house was built, the Gui family's second room was repaired, and Gui Chun and Gui Qiu were married, all of which were covered by Gui Wu's uncle.

There were originally several kinds of Gui Wu, some said that he was down, and he was rejected by the Yue family, and when the Gui family finished digging the well, there is only one left: this Gui Wu is famous.

Who doesn't want such an uncle?

When the news that Gui Wu bought a house and shop in the town and moved back after the Mid-Autumn Festival reached Mujia Village, some people were ready to move.

Gui Wu has no sons, and Gui Wu's wife Jiang is three or four years older than Gui Wu, and she is already the age of a yellow-faced woman. There is a bad heart, who has already inquired about the situation of Jiang's wife, and is looking forward to marrying his daughter to fill the house.

How many of the daughters in Mujia Village can marry into the town? When the time comes, don't talk about eating and drinking spicy food, just look at Gui Wu's generous temperament, and take care of the cousins and nephews in the next room, not to mention the father-in-law and brother-in-law.

As soon as the daydream came out, some people wanted to face and waited, and some people were dizzy and wanted to burn a hot stove, so they went directly to Song's house to find Mrs. Song, and asked her to pass the word to the Gui family.

Mrs. Song had seen the Jiang family and knew that it was a woman who didn't talk much but had a city government, how could she be willing to take such a job?

If someone wants to do it for his own man, he will hate him if he wants to make way for his man to make way for him to die as soon as possible.

Mrs. Song pushed it, but someone made fun.

On this day, Gui Chongyang came to the second room and was talking to Gui Wu about the opening of the shop in the town. The three shops were almost cleaned up, and the relevant personnel had also signed the deed, waiting for the auspicious day to open.

Gui Wu asked Mr. Feng Shui to pick a few days, including August 18, August 26, and September 9, all of which were auspicious.

The ninth day of September is Gui Chongyang's birthday, but it is also the day of his biological mother Wu's sacrifice, so naturally he can't choose this day. The rest is August 26 with one.

The day of Gui Wu's housewarming was set on August 16, and August 18 was a bit rushed, and Gui Chongyang proposed to choose August 26.

Gui Wu felt that his housewarming and opening had little impact, after all, he was just a name, the real owner of the shop was Chongyang, and the two who took care of the shop were Gui Qiu and Zhou Dingxiang. The staff has been hired, and the wages are not calculated from the opening, but now the money has already begun, and it is a waste to delay eight or nine days.

The uncle and nephew discussed and set the opening time of the shop on August 18.

When the uncle and nephew said this, they heard movement in the courtyard.

"Second sister-in-law, I'm here!" Before the person arrived, the sound came first.

Gui Chongyang was still thinking about who was coming, but he was not familiar with the voice, because the second grandmother of Gui in the family could be called the "second sister-in-law", and the Yang family's husband and uncle were also the second.

I heard someone answer: "What a rare guest, isn't the old woman daydreaming, what kind of wind is this, you old man still has expensive feet on the ground?" ”

It was the voice of Grandma Gui.

Gui Wu and Gui Chongyang's uncle and nephew glanced at each other, but they didn't mean to get up to greet the guests.

If you are not familiar with it, and you call Gui's second grandmother like this, only the people from the "Donggui" side are left.

Gui Wu picked the corners of his mouth, and there was more sarcasm on his face.

Since Gui Wu paid for two wells, "Donggui" has changed its attitude.

Gui Wu returned to Mujia Village for more than two months, and the "Donggui" side first watched and watched, and then saw that Gui Wu was not a person to be messed with, so he was careful to be vigilant and stay away. In the matter of that year, they intervened in it, otherwise Guili, who would not have been pitted, would not be able to sell the land, and in the end could only sell it to the Du family.

At that time, this was inserted because "Donggui" received twenty taels of silver from the Du family. That's four acres of money, and when it's delivered, who can refuse? It's just that no one thought that it would be such a consequence, and "Donggui" was also disappointed, afraid that "Xigui" would turn over the accounts.

Therefore, they were all weak in their hearts towards Gui Wu, for fear that Gui Wu would take revenge for what happened back then.

When Gui Wu didn't move, only built a house, repaired a house, and worried about the affairs of a few nephews, the silver money was spilled out one by one, and "Donggui" was ready to move again.

"Donggui" intended to reconcile with Gui Wu, and several cousins and clan brothers of the same generation also came forward, but Gui Wu did not pay attention.

Now that men can't do it, they come to women?

"Ignore it!" Gui Wu sneered: "I couldn't spare my hand to deal with them before, but they kicked their noses in the face." The account from thirteen years ago must be calculated! ”

Gui Chongyang's little face also sank.

Thirteen years ago, the more details you know, the more you can discover the strangeness of it. The rings are all aimed at the Gui family. Duri is the culprit, so this "Donggui", which is the same blood as "Xigui", is an accomplice.

Nine lives, innocent survivors should be compensated, and there are also black-hearted people who deserve retribution.

The uncle and nephew didn't take it seriously, but the east room was lively.

*

East House.

It was the fourth daughter-in-law of the old lady Donggui, who was the same generation as the second grandmother of Gui, in her fifties, but she was extremely rich and had a loud voice.

"Oh, the second sister-in-law is rich, looking down on our poor relatives, why don't you have sweet tea?" Grandma Gui Si wiped her sweat, looked at the emptiness in front of her, and didn't even mean to serve tea, and pouted dissatisfied.

Now that the Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, it is the autumn tiger that is raging, and Grandma Gui Si dragged her fat body through half of the village, walking all over in sweat.

"Pour your mother's sweet tea! If you have a fart, let it go, the old woman is small in this temple, and she can't fit your big face! Grandma Gui sneered.

"Xigui" and "Donggui" have long been out of contact with each other, if it weren't for Gui Wu's presence, I'm afraid that there would be gossip about the slow treatment of the clansmen, and Gui Er's grandmother wouldn't even let Gui Si's grandmother enter the house.

Grandma Gui Si sneered: "The second sister-in-law is still so straightforward, she can't write two Gui characters in one stroke, they are all one ancestor!" ”

Gui Er's grandmother spat and immediately turned red, but she was not sad, but angry: "Huh? An ancestor? When we were in Xigui Changfang, why didn't we remember that it was an ancestor? Why did we fall into the water in Chun'er back then? Outsiders haven't bullied yet, but you, the ancestors, have been bullied first. ”

Back then, for Gui Chun's falling into the water, Gui Er's grandmother took a kitchen knife to "Donggui" to settle accounts.

"Dong Gui" didn't admit it because of the large number of people, only said that Gui Chun was naughty, and finally said that he would give Gui Er's grandmother ten cents for the sake of the same bloodline.

Ten cents is their compensation for Gui Chun's dying life.

Second Grandma Gui was really going crazy at that time, if it weren't for Grandpa Gui Er's arrival later, the old lady would really be chopping people.

It was for Gui Chun's illness that Gui Wu made his own decisions and went to the Jiang family to be a child son-in-law.

The eldest grandson and youngest son, every time they think of it, the second grandmother Gui's heart trembles.

Grandma Gui Si sighed: "I watched everything back then, and in the final analysis, it was all poor. The old lady has long regretted it, but she can't pull her face......"8)
