Chapter 199: Asking for help

Gui Yuan died less than the anniversary, although Gui Chongyang took off his white filial piety, he was also dressed in a muslin cloth, and there was no trace of Ayaluo.

If you want to say that people in the countryside are all cloth clothes, but cloth is different from cloth, and the style and details of the clothes are also exquisite.

Mei Sheng followed the teacher to the capital several times in the past year and a half, and there were poor students among the students of the house, but more of them were the children of the tired eunuch family and the scholarly family, but I had seen similar dresses on the children of an official family, and I heard that the use of Gongbu was the most fashionable style in Jinling.

The young man in front of him is old, dressed up, and at the gate of the village school, except for Gui Chongyang, who came back from Nanjing, which one else can there be

It's just that this Kampot can't be obtained by non-powerful people, Gui Chongyang is here every year, and he relies on his elders to eat and drink, and that Gui Yuan is really just a "cowardly and unproductive bastard" in the mouth of the villagers

For a while, Mei Sheng thought a lot in his heart.

Gui Chongyang here, recognizing Mei Sheng at a glance, not that he is very capable and can "discern people", but Mei Sheng is wearing Confucian clothes and a Confucian crown, and he is fourteen or five years old.

Mei Chen also saw Mei Sheng, and immediately greeted him with joy: "Fourth brother is back!" ”

It can be seen that Mei Chen is really happy, the little milk voice is filled with honey, her eyes are shining, if there is a tail, she will shake it up.

Mei Sheng nodded with a smile and said, "Xiao Jiu is here, why are you standing outside during the lunch break?"

Mei Chen nodded and said, "Lunch break, I'll ...... I just talked to Third Brother Gui. The fourth brother came to find a good grandfather."

Mei Sheng nodded, and saw Gui Chongyang next to him again, and Fang entered the village school.

Mei Chen's eyes stared at Mei Sheng's back, and he didn't have the heart to talk to Gui Chongyang anymore, so he immediately followed in.

Gui Chongyang glanced at the direction of Mei Tongsheng's house, and was a little surprised in his heart.

Long before he saw Mei Sheng, Gui Chongyang had pondered about this person.

After all, the old grievances between the Gui family and the Mei family are not one or two, and when they can't keep it, they will naturally "know themselves and know their opponents", the Mei family is old and young, and the one who makes Gui Chongyang scruple is Mei Sheng.

Mei Sheng is the orphan of "Jiuding", if he is angry and resentful of the Gui family because of this, it is reasonable.

There is an article in the "Three Principles and Five Constants" that "the father is the son", which shows that the relationship between father and son is the first of all relatives in the eyes of the world.

"The revenge of killing the father is not the same as the sky", the Gui family did not kill Mei Qingsong, but Mei Qingsong's death is indeed inseparable from the Gui family, to put it bluntly, Gui Chongyang is the son of Mei Sheng's enemy.

After Ding was sad, the Gui family broke the family and compensated, and the possible compensation was limited, and it was all for the older generation.

Mei Sheng, Mei Duo, and Li Taoer, who became orphans because of "Ding Nan", except for Mei Duo, who was more lucky, and was raised by her aunt who really loved her, the other two were all born out of hard life; and Aunt Mei, who lost her father, remarried with her mother, and Gui Chun and Gui Qiu, who lost their father, were also bullied when they were young.

Compared with these people, Gui Chongyang, who was "born and lost his mother", lived a blessed life before.

Mei Sheng's reaction when he saw Gui Chongyang was too indifferent, no sadness or joy, no difference from seeing strangers, did he really forget the grievances of the two families or remember it and didn't take it to heart, hiding in the depths, waiting for the opportunity

Village school teacher's room.

Seeing the eldest grandson come in, Mei Tongsheng was surprised, quickly got up, stepped forward and pulled Mei Sheng's arm, and said, "Sheng'er is back, come to grandpa to see why he is so thin."

Such enthusiasm surprised Mei Sheng.

In the past, when grandparents and grandchildren met, Mei Tongsheng always had to pick up his grandfather's shelf first, ask the county schoolwork, and then find fault with the second or third. There are also Mei Sheng's Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, and a few days ago, the "step-grandmother" did not come back when she entered the door, and the old man should frown and nag for a few quarters of an hour.

If you want to say that Mei Tongsheng was not angry or annoyed that his eldest grandson did not show up before, it was naturally annoying, but in the past few days, his son and daughter-in-law have been less respectful to the Li family, which makes him angry and cold.

Now that he is fine, his son and daughter-in-law don't take him seriously, and when he is old, he still expects the filial piety of those two people

Mei Tongsheng knew that what he could count on in the future was Mei Sheng's grandson.

Mei Sheng is the eldest grandson of the long house, who inherited the incense of his ancestors, and he and the Li family followed the eldest grandson, which is also reasonable.

Now Mei Tongsheng is glad that he did not officially split up before, but now he has a plan in his heart, it is too late to get close to his grandson, where will he be picky and reprimanded

"This cotton coat is still two years ago, it is broken a lot, where can you wear it and ask your stepgrandmother to help you pick up a new one" Mei Tongsheng looked at the cuffs that were half empty, and he was a little apprehensive, and watched Mei Sheng's reaction while talking.

Mei Sheng wanted to refuse, but remembering the yin and yang weirdness of the Du clan before, he nodded and said, "Then it will bother the old lady." ”

This is an acknowledgment of Lee's identity

Mei Tongsheng immediately smiled.

An eighteen-year-old young woman, who is sensible and responsible, really wants to be like those two beasts said, he is reluctant to count himself as a wife but only a concubine.

Mei Tongsheng coughed lightly twice and said, "It's rare for you to come back, or ...... While you're here, open the ancestral hall"

The ancestral hall was opened, but it was just to correct the name of the bride.

The Mei family is a family in the end, and there is no rule of adding the bride's name to the family tree the day after marriage, most of them are adding a bride or a new ding in the clan when worshipping the ancestors on Chinese New Year's Eve.

It was really Mei Xiucai and the Du couple who had bad intentions, and Mei Tongsheng was biased towards the bride again, worried that there would be extraneous branches, so they wanted to solve the matter as soon as possible.

When Mei Sheng heard this, he couldn't help but be speechless.

Mei Qingshu's lawsuit was tried on the tenth day of the first month, and now the clansmen are worried about the result, who has the heart to open an ancestral hall

"Grandpa An's side is worried about Uncle Qingshu's lawsuit, I'm afraid that before the opening of the court, he can't take care of anything else." Mei Sheng thought for a moment and said.

After the lawsuit, if Mei Qingshu is really punished, then it is impossible to say that Mei An will open an ancestral hall and eliminate Mei Qingshu's clan.

Mei Sheng and Gui Chongyang guessed this by accident.

This is the most common way for folk clans to punish lawless clansmen, after all, it is a big deal for a criminal in the family, and if there is a major or small incident in the local area in the future, it will be a suspect, and even taking other clansmen to serve will be assigned to the dirtiest and most tiring work because it is a "crime".

Mei Chen was still young and didn't know this, so he thought that it would have little impact on others.

When it came to the lawsuit, Mei Tongsheng couldn't help but be annoyed, but not to Gui Chongyang, but to Mei Qingshu and his wife.

You have to know about Mei Xiaoba's succession, but he is the master, and when Mei Qingshu and his wife fooled Mei Xiaoba before, they didn't think that Mei Xiaoba still had him, the "heir ancestor".

And because this lawsuit happened after Mei Tongsheng married Li, some people took out the matter of Li's "hard life" and said that she only said that she hindered it. Mei Tongsheng felt sorry for the Li family, and he hated Mei Qingshu and his wife to death.

"Humph! Your grandfather in the lobby prides himself on being a fair and fair fart, and if there is such a person in the clan, he should have opened an ancestral hall to expel the clan a long time ago, just because he was his own nephew, he became selfish. He also looked for me before and wanted me to go to Gui's house to talk about it, but I refused. Let's not get involved in this, you should be careful, don't be coaxed by that old guy! It's not surnamed Mei, it's a family! Mei Tongsheng said.

Mei Sheng smiled and nodded, said a few more words to Mei Tongsheng, and got up to leave. Today he is going back to the county school, and it will be dark early in winter, so he will return early.

After repeatedly confirming that Sun Zi would come back after the lawsuit was over, Mei Tongsheng waved his hand and told him to leave.

Outside the master's room, Mei Chen had been waiting for a long time, and her feet were numb.

Seeing Mei Sheng coming out, Mei Chen hurriedly greeted him.

In Mei's heart, the most revered is this clan brother who is only five years older than herself.

The clan brother is so smart, he must be able to find a way to punish the uncle and his wife at the same time as to protect the reputation of the Mei family, wouldn't that be the best of both worlds

In the small class, because many people saw Mei Sheng enter the village school, the primary school students all talked about this "little Sanyuan".

Mei Xiaoba hesitated for a moment, and said in a low voice: "Brother Chongyang, is the fourth brother coming back for the lawsuit, he is a showman, what if he is biased to that side, what if he is biased, I will also go to court, I am a witness......"
