Chapter Eighty-Eight: Gui Wu (II) (Part 2)

On July 20, the man's elders Gui Er's grandmother, Yang's family, Gui Wu and the big media Zhong Xiaoyan went to Zhou's house together.

Zhou Dingxiang was still confused, only curious why his father didn't have a pretense today, and asked himself to change into new clothes.

It's Guiqiu, who has stopped smiling since the morning, and doesn't laugh with Zhou Dingxiang much, which makes Zhou Dingxiang inexplicable.

Until the Gui family arrived, Zhou Dingxiang also called "Grandma Gui" and "Aunt Gui" very generously, and changed to other people's families, I had to feel that this girl didn't know that her shy skin was too thick, but Gui's second grandmother and Yang's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were both cheerful people, but they loved Zhou Dingxiang's temperament very much.

Grandma Gui Er smiled and pulled Zhou Dingxiang's hand, Zhou Dingxiang has been cooking since she was a child, and she will not be as soft as other girls, and she is a little stubby. Gui's second grandmother patted Zhou Dingxiang's hand and boasted: "This hand is a blessed one, no wonder I fell in love when I saw it before, it should be our child." ”

Zhou Dingxiang was a little embarrassed to be praised, and before she could react, Grandma Gui Er had already taken a silver hairpin from her head and inserted it on her head. This is prepared by the Jiang family, a total of two, a plum blossom silver hairpin, a lilac silver hairpin, which combines the surname and name of the two concubines of the younger generation of the Gui family, the plum blossom silver hairpin is supplemented by the plum blossom, and the lilac silver hairpin is used to "insert and wear" today.

No matter how careless Zhou Dingxiang Rao is, he also knows what "plugging" means, and immediately looked like a boiled shrimp, his face was flushed, and he couldn't stand, and said: "Grandma Gui, Aunt Gui sit slowly, I'll serve sweet tea." ”

After a while, Zhou Dingxiang brought two bowls of thick osmanthus honey water, this time she finally had the shyness of the little girl, her voice was quieter, her sitting posture was also upright, and she lowered her head to talk to the Gui family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

*

In the lobby of the restaurant, Zhong Xiaoyan acted as a big matchmaker and said that the Gui family promised to split up after marriage, and Master Zhou also called the matchmaker in the neighborhood here, and the two families wrote marriage letters and exchanged Geng stickers.

Guiqiu followed the whole process, serving tea and water, very attentive.

When Master Zhou took the thank you matchmaker gift and sent the matchmaker away, he said to Gui Wu: "I don't have too much here, so I will send it according to the middle of the town, twenty-four dowry, and twelve taels of silver." ”

Even in the town, these dowries are quite a lot. Not to mention, Master Zhou has already said that he will leave the recipe for braised soup and the old soup to Guiqiu, which is worth more than any dowry.

Gui Wu said: "The two of them will help Chongyang to set up this stall first, and it can be regarded as a livelihood, I am an uncle, and I can't help anything else, so I will prepare a small house in the town for the little couple of them." ”

Master Zhou is not dissatisfied, and the Zhou family is not unable to prepare a house, but just marries normally, and there is no reason like that.

For a while, they were satisfied.

It was Gui's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and it wasn't until she returned to Guijia Village that Gui Wu mentioned it to everyone that she knew that Gui Wu had agreed to the house.

Grandma Gui is not easy to say, but it is not the meaning of approval.

Yang directly refused: "The kindness of the fifth child, my sister-in-law received it on behalf of your nephew." But you are not rich, there is no such reason, it is better to let the children save by themselves, and the family does not want him. ”

Zhou Dingxiang and Mei Duo are the same age, fourteen years old, they are all next year, this marriage must always pay attention to the order of the young and the young, so that Guiqiu's marriage will be in the second half of next year at the earliest, and there will be more than a year of effort.

The three newly purchased shops in the town began to be cleaned up, and Gui Chongyang promised to give Gui Qiu and Zhou Lilac two dividends, and after a year, he couldn't earn a house, but it was enough to rent a similar one.

Gui Wu has "returned to the sect" since the end of May, but he has given a lot of silver to the family, and the dowry silver of the two brothers Gui Chun and Gui Qiu is Gui Wu's silver, and it is enough to be an uncle to do this.

In the end, it's just an uncle, not a father, and an aunt, and there is no reason to keep supplementing the nephew.

Gui Wudao: "Sister-in-law, don't push it, this is what the fourth sister means, and it is also what I mean." I am Qiu'er's uncle, and I haven't raised him outside all these years, and when he gets married, he won't let me do my best as an uncle, and I won't have the face to see my second brother when I go underground in the future. ”

Second Grandma Gui glanced at Jiang, her face softened slightly, and said, "Since it is the fifth child's intention, just take it." ”

The Yang family can only be grateful, and solemnly thank the Jiang family.

Jiang said with a smile: "It's all a family, what does my sister-in-law say?" No matter how good or bad their lives are in the future, as elders, we naturally have to help them if we can. ”

Gui Chongyang saw it next to him, and he had his own ideas in his heart.

Although I don't know how much savings Gui Wu has, but looking at the ordinary food and clothing of the husband and wife, the houses and shops in the town are also dozens of taels and dozens of taels, which should not be spacious.

Among the three shops, one of them was purchased by Gui Wu for his own family and planned to rent it out for daily use, and later saw that Gui Chongyang was going to do business, so he directly attributed that one to Gui Chongyang's name.

Gui Chongyang refused to ask for it, and wanted to count it as Gui Wu's use of the shop to buy shares, but Gui Wu did not agree, only saying that the partnership business was not easy to do, even if it was relatives, it was better to be clear. Of course, this is in front of Gui Chongyang and the rest of the Gui family, and Gui Wushao must not be a signboard.

In the twelve years of the Jiang family, Gui Wu saw several aunts and brothers-in-law from being harmonious and angry to having different thoughts, all because of money in the final analysis. Therefore, Gui Wu is quite careful about money, and would rather be polite and clear than leave hidden dangers and hurt feelings.

There are only a few people in the two rooms of "Xigui", if there is a disagreement about money and wealth, it will be too impressive.

Gui Wu didn't want to worry about Gui Chongyang's money in the second room, and thought of Gui Chongyang everywhere. Gui Chongyang appreciates it, so naturally he also has to consider Gui Wu.

Gui Wu wants to go to the Tong test, and the Jiang family is a medicine jar, even if the husband and wife have small savings, they will not be rich, and they will spend money in both places. Therefore, Gui Chongyang planned to give a 10% profit to Gui Wu and his wife, no matter how much the shops in the town made from the business.

Because he knew that Gui Wu would not accept it, Gui Chongyang didn't mention it, but only remembered this in his heart.

Gui Qiu's family ordered, and it was time for Gui Chongyang and Mei's aunt and nephew to move back to the long house.

According to the meaning of Gui's second grandfather, he wants everyone to move after the Mid-Autumn Festival. Gui Wu was worried about repairing the house, and wanted to finish repairing the second-room house before returning to the town, so he didn't leave Gui Chongyang and the others.

On July 22, it is advisable to move and open a stove.

Gui Chongyang and Mei's aunt and nephew moved back to the long house, and at the same time, they set up a wine stove on this day.

Unlike the last time Gui's second grandfather's family made up wine for Gui Wu and his wife, at that time, the relationship between the Gui family and most families in the village was still deadlocked, and there were only a few households, and even with the guests, it was only three tables. This time, Gui's family room set up a stove for wine, and only the male guests made five tables, and there were two tables for the guests.

The thirty or so villagers who came to help before were naturally invited one by one; In addition to them, the Zhang family, the Yang family, and the Song family, who originally had dealings with the Gui family, were waiting for a few.

Although Gui Wu was at the main table, he gave up the main seat, but let Gui Chongyang sit.

When he got up and picked up the first glass of wine, Gui Wu said to everyone present: "These days, I bother all the villagers and friends to help, and Gui Wudai's nephews are here to thank you all the old and young masters." After that, he pointed to Gui Chongyang, who stood up and said, "My nephew is in filial piety and can't drink, so I will thank you on his behalf for this glass of wine." "Anyway, it's dry.

Everyone can come to eat and drink, which is to give the Gui family face, and now that Gui Wu has made a face for his nephew, everyone should also drink in a cup.

Gui Wu poured a second glass of wine and said to Mei Tongsheng at the same table: "Mei Fuzi, in the future, my nephew will have to take care of him more." ”

That's right, Mei Tongsheng is also the "guest of honor" of the Gui family.

There is no way, the Gui family wants to ease the relationship with the people in the village, and the Mei and Li families can't avoid it. After all, these two families are also the bereaved families of the martyrdom thirteen years ago. Not to mention, Gui Chongyang is about to enter the village school, and he can't avoid Mei Tongsheng.

Mei Tongsheng didn't want to come, why did he give Gui Wu face? However, when he heard that the Gui family only served wine and did not accept shares, he still came.

If you don't eat for nothing, you don't eat, the Mei family has lost a lot of money recently, and it's good to save money for a meal.

Gui Wu was polite at the moment, and Mei Tongsheng also held the shelf, looked at Gui Chongyang's eyes and said: "You must be diligent in your studies, and you must not be slack, otherwise the old ruler will not recognize people." ”

In front of everyone, Gui Chongyang naturally listened to it.

Mei Tongsheng remembered the previous rumor that Gui Chongyang came back with ten boxes of books, and couldn't help but sigh. It's just to fool around with these mud legs, and if you can't keep any red booklets, they are all regarded as books, which is rare and strange.

Seeing that there were many people in the village, Mei Tongsheng remembered something, looked at the small table next to him, and saw Mei Xiaoba sitting honestly, and took a few critical looks.
