Coming out of the yamen, Gui Wu has been silent, and he did not show joy and joy when he changed back to his ancestral surname.

Gui Chongyang only felt that the atmosphere was a little depressing, and said, "Fifth uncle, aren't you going to prepare for next year?" Do you need to find a school? ”

There is no difficulty in the county exam, although Gui Chongyang does not know Gui Wu's knowledge, but with Zhong Xiaoyi's words, he is not worried about him.

Sometimes the school is not only for learning, but also for a circle of friends. Gui Wu was an adoptive son-in-law before. It is also a business and a relationship circle; In the future, when you study and take exams, it will be another circle of friends.

Gui Wu nodded and shook his head: "I want to find a school, but not for me, but for you." It is when you should study hard, and now that you have settled down, you should not delay. Don't worry about it on my side, send a post to the teacher tomorrow to meet you, and ask him for advice or two when you have time in the future. Speaking of this, he reacted: "I'm confused, what school to find, I'll take you directly to the teacher another day." ”

Gui Wu's teacher's surname is Yuan, and he runs a private school in the east of the town to recruit primary school students.

This was diverted by the words of the school, and Gui Wu's spirit was slightly better: "Chun'er is also old, and the family affairs can no longer be delayed, and the family house should be cleaned up." ”

The house of Gui's second grandfather was still repaired before the Yang family entered the door, although it was better than the adobe house of the Gui family's old house, and it was pasted with bricks, but it was also more than ten years, and it was not much better than the Gui family's old house.

When Gui Chongyang heard this, his spirit was shocked: "Fifth uncle, the house of the old mansion should also be repaired." ”

It's not that Gui Chongyang dislikes the dilapidated and narrow old house, but he can't stand the tide insects and ants inside, so he has only slept for two days, and he has already bitten several small bumps on his back and thighs.

Gui Wu didn't react immediately, but thought about it and shook his head and said: "The old mansion is too old, and the wood is rotten, if you want to repair it, you have to replace the roof and windows." That's a lot of money, and it's better to rebuild the house. ”

Gui Chongyang immediately said happily: "Then rebuild the house!" ”

The homesteads in the village are large, although the old house has only three main houses and a wing room, but the front yard is spacious, except for one side is the chicken coop, the other side has a vegetable garden, adding up to half an acre, plus half an acre of land in the garden behind the house, there is enough one and a half acres of land in front of it, enough to cover an area of two courtyards.

Yes, to enter twice, entering the city every day in the past few days, passing through the village, Gui Chongyang has already looked at the courtyard of the village chief Du's house.

Gui Wu had an idea when he was a child, and he made his own decisions at the age of eleven, so naturally he would not treat Gui Chongyang, who was already twelve years old, as a child, so he said: "Mei family, what do you mean?" The father and son of the Mei family are still greedy, greedy for money and unscrupulous, and they will be offended, but there is also a Mei Sheng in the Mei family, who is now studying in the official school, and is only fourteen this year, and last year's 'little three yuan'. “

Gui Chongyang hesitated, is this Mei Sheng still the bitter master of the "Nine Ding Difficulty" back then, and one of the creditors of "Dad": "The fifth uncle knows him, what is his character?" ”

Gui Wu shook his head and said, "I've been photographed twice, but I really don't know much." However, since he won the 'little three yuan' last year, everyone in the family who has a little lady to marry has made people inquire, and the two of Mei Tongsheng's father and son have been investigated, and many inappropriate places have been found, and the people who really feel sorry for their daughters have extinguished their thoughts of marrying their daughters, but Mei Sheng has not had any bad deeds here, and he has just learned to read books. Because it was his own grandfather who was enlightened, he was not sent to a private school outside, and he was not known before he ended. It wasn't until last year that it became a blockbuster. ”

Gui Chongyang felt that something was wrong when he heard this: "What about Mei Sheng?" ”

Thirteen years ago, in the "Difficulty of Nine Dings", two people with the surname Mei died, one was Mei's brother and Mei Duo's father; One is Mei Tong's eldest son and Mei Sheng's father.

Mei Tongsheng sold his widowed nephew and daughter-in-law after the accident for the sake of money, what about the widowed daughter-in-law?

"Mei Sheng's mother is none other than the daughter of my teacher, Mr. Yuan. Your aunt and grandfather were classmates with the teacher back then, and they have always been good friends and want to be in-laws. My cousin didn't like to read, and the teacher didn't like it, so I chose Mei Da, who was slightly talented in reading. The senior sister had postpartum disease, and it disappeared when Mei Sheng was half a year old. Speaking of this, Gui Wu remembered one thing: "It hasn't been many years since the Du family moved over, and the foundation is not stable, so I fell in love with the Mei family, but it was one step slower than the Yuan family." But he didn't give up, and without waiting for his senior sister to be buried, he called the matchmaker to come to the door, and somehow explained Mei Tongsheng, and the ceremony was down at that time. It was because of this that the teacher did not like the Mei family that he broke off contact with the Mei family. Later, Mei Da had an accident, and Du Shi married Mei Er. ”

Mei Er had already married his wife, Aunt Gui, and in order to marry Du, he naturally had to divorce his wife first. I don't know if the Mei family took the initiative or the Du family proposed this matter, but they all stepped on the Gui family.

Although thirteen years have passed, Gui Wu is still angry when he thinks of the bullying that the Gui family was subjected to at that time.

Mei Sheng is a "good boy in other people's mouths", and he is a "potential stock" in the imperial examination, Gui Chongyang naturally does not want to offend him plainly. originally thought that Mei Tongsheng's greed and infertility, if there was a daughter-in-law who was widowed, he couldn't say that he would marry forcibly for the sake of silver, if that was the case, this matter would be a hidden danger for the Mei family, so don't worry that Mei Sheng would blindly protect his grandfather and uncle.

However, even if Mei Tongsheng's father and son did not do that, there was a marriage between the Mei family and the Du family during the funeral of the Yuan family, which was also a seed. If Mei Tongsheng's father and son didn't know the fun and wanted to hit Mei Duo after Gui Chongyang's warning, then Gui Chongyang would have to loosen the soil and water the "seed".

The uncle and nephew returned to Mujia Village, and the villagers along the way were no longer surprised.

Who has the leisure to pay attention to the affairs of other people's families, the weather is fine these days, it is the season of wheat harvest, and every household has begun to prepare for the wheat harvest.

Gui Chongyang went directly to Gui Er's grandfather's house with Gui Wu, and Jiang stood at the door, waiting for her husband to return.

When Gui Wu saw it, he hurriedly walked a few steps, supported the Jiang family, and said angrily: "The sun is still enough outside." ”

Jiang pursed his lips and smiled: "It's the sun that comes out to sunshine, or there are cats in the house all day long, and the bones are moldy." ”

The husband and wife said this, did not speak again, looked at each other silently, although they did not speak, but seemed to say everything.

Gui Chongyang was beside him, and inexplicably felt that his eyes were a little nowhere to fall, so he hurriedly looked away.

Gui's second grandmother came out of the backyard with a vegetable basket, and when she saw her son coming back, she strode over: "This ...... Can it be said in a good way? ”

Gui Wu let go of his wife, stepped forward to take the vegetable basket in the hands of Gui Er's grandmother, nodded and said: "When I go back to the town, I will go to my father-in-law and mother-in-law to get the household registration, and then go to the county government to settle down. “

Grandma Gui Er looked her youngest son up and down several times, and made sure that he had all the tails, so she breathed a sigh of relief and said: "It's all wrapped up in my mother, you don't have to worry about it anymore, in two days, I will arrange two tables of wine, and I will also make up for you to make up a gift, so that your daughter-in-law can meet her relatives and elders." ”

Gui Wu hurriedly said: "Mother, no." ”

Jiang also said: "Mother, I really don't need it, wait for my nephew to get married in a few days, and it's not too late for us to see each other again." ”

"How's that going to work?" Grandma Gui insisted: "The family is not rich, and we can't do happy events for you again, the two tables of wine must be placed, and there is no reason for you to sneak into your mother-in-law's house!" ”

Gui Wu and the Jiang family had to push again, but Gui Er's grandfather pushed the door out and said, "Don't ink, just do what your mother says!" ”
