Chapter 208: Pull out the radish and bring out the mud
For the rest of the village, the Mei family's so-called "separation" is just a bustle, and they can't wait to make a big fuss.
But for the second room of the Gui family, who has a grudge against the Mei family, it is a joy to see.
"Toss, it's not a good thing, it's good to be poor!" Grandma Gui heard that Aunt Zhang came over to gossip about it, and she was really comfortable.
Mei Xiucai has become a gambler, it has long been known that the Mei family's land property is cheaper than the Gui family's second room, which is also a relief for people's hatred, but for the scholar's family, even if the land property is gone for a while, as long as the fame is still there, it is nothing, which is also the reason why no one in the village dares to fall into the well for the Mei family. As long as Mei Sheng is lifted, the Mei family can turn over at any time.
But what kind of life did "Xigui" live after it lost its land?
Compared with the two families, it is strange that Gui's second grandmother can feel comfortable in her heart.
Now that the Mei family is going to be separated, it is exactly what Grandma Gui Er can't wait to see.
Mei Xiucai is a person who does not produce anything, and he is not close to Mei Sheng, a nephew, and is divided into two families, and his life will only get worse and worse.
It was Mei Tongsheng who came forward to divorce Aunt Mei, but Mei Xiucai, who was behind the cat, was the worst, obviously he disliked Aunt Mei and took the opportunity to divorce his wife, and he did not show his head, instigating Mei Tongsheng to show up and be a bad person, and he also said to Aunt Mei in private, "Separated by the eldest brother's life" and "Respect for the father's life helplessly", which made Aunt Mei not hate her mother-in-law's family after being divorced, but only hated her mother's family, and completely broke her flesh and blood after remarrying.
Aunt Zhang said: "Du Erniang is not a wreck, so she won't really cheapen a good house Li Huaihua!" And Mei Lao Er, that's a yin, can you suffer this loss in vain? Tsk, it's Li Huaihua, a dog that really bites people doesn't bark, a few days after entering the door, he can instigate Old Man Mei to this point, and he really can't see it. ”
Grandma Gui Er was concerned, nodded incessantly, and couldn't help but be a little afraid. Fortunately, she was not confused at the beginning, she believed in the bewitchment of "Donggui", and hired Li Huaihua to her son as a second room.
The Yang family was beside him, although he didn't like the widow to remarry the most, but he said a fair word: "If you enter such a family, you will be bullied to death if you don't count, in the end, the Li family is not a thing, it looks like it hurts the girl, and it will be taken back as soon as the widow is left, but this is sold once and sold for the second time, even if it is greedy for dowry, it will be picky, and the eighteen-year-old lady, with an old coffin scoop in her fifties, can you have a good life for a few years?" This is angry with the mother-in-law, I haven't heard that the daughter-in-law is angry, this acacia flower is also forced to have no way. ”
Li Huaihua's mother's side also got the news, but she couldn't wait to clap her hands.
Who didn't get married and didn't "return home"? Even if you remarry, you won't recognize your relatives? Mei Xiucai and his wife blocked it, and now the two families have not returned to their in-laws, what is this called?
Rao is Li family was worried and angry, and they didn't think that Mei Xiucai and his wife would directly refuse to recognize the identity of the Li family's stepfamily, otherwise they would have come to the door a long time ago. The Li family is an old surname in the village, and there are many houses, so they can't afford the Mei family to be bullied like this.
Now that Mei Tongsheng has split up and left a promising eldest grandson, the Li family is desperate to separate Mei Xiucai's family. Cheap nephews and nephews' daughters-in-law don't kiss their stepmothers and have nothing to do with their stepmothers, as long as Mei Sheng admits it.
If it weren't for Mei Tongsheng, who has always been upright, he is a person who loves to pay attention to rules and old etiquette, and he doesn't love people to visit the door in the past, the Li family would have come to persuade the Li family a long time ago, and in the future, don't take care of Mei Xiucai's room, just treat Mei Sheng as his own grandson.
By the afternoon, the snow was getting heavier.
By dusk, the snow was knee-deep outside.
The dragon in the house was hot, and several members of the Gui family were all peeling sugar and fried chestnuts in the hall to eat.
This is still Mei Xiaoba got back from the back mountain last month, it is not big, but it is glutinous and sweet.
"I never thought I could live like this again!" Mei Duo stretched comfortably, with a bit of laziness.
Mei Duo was most afraid of winter before, when there were no men in Mei's house, three women, old and young, old and young, all of them were dragging.
There is only one man in the two rooms of "Xigui", and there is still a male grandfather in Gui's second room, or his legs and feet are inconvenient, and his uncle and sister-in-law always have to avoid it, and only Gui Chun and Gui Qiu brothers can come forward to help the long house collect firewood.
At that time, Gui Chun and Gui Qiu were still two children, and Mei's cousin, who couldn't bear to bear it in vain, also went to collect firewood. Mei Duo saw that her aunt only took her two brothers and did not bring herself, so she went up the mountain with her own back, and did not do any work, but her hands and feet were frostbitten, and she had to recur every winter, and she looked for several home remedies, and tried to boil water for eggplant seedlings and artemisia seedlings, but it didn't work.
Gui Chongyang knew about this, so he made a special trip to inquire at the county pharmacy, and knew that there was badger oil in the capital to treat chilblains, so he directly paid a high-priced deposit, and asked the pharmacy to buy two boxes of badger oil from Beijing.
As soon as Meiduo chilblain was about to appear, I used this, and although it has not yet gone to the roots, it has eased a lot.
To say that Mei Duo still had the "heart of a villain" before, she was more wary of Gui Chongyang, and she was also worried about her aunt's pension problem, and after a few months, she was completely relieved.
Gui Chongyang has a good nature, and he is an idea and responsible, even if he marries in the future, he will not dislike Mei's softly; On the contrary, Mei Xiaoba, who was originally picked to be the heir just in case, was so honest that he was confused, and he couldn't be reassured, I just hope that he can have a long memory in the future.
Thinking of this, Mei Duo glanced at Mei Xiaoba with disgust.
According to Mei Duo's meaning, since he is in a lawsuit with the Mei family, he should push Mei Xiaoba to be a personal witness, and take the opportunity to completely break off his relationship with that side.
Mei Duo can see that it is difficult to be a good person in this world, and he thinks about the east and the west; is a bad guy directly, but it is a pleasure and a good one.
Mei Xiaoba was in a hurry, and she didn't have the patience to peel the chestnuts completely, so she bit directly like melon seeds, and the inside and outside of the shell were chestnut meat; When I arrived at Gui Chongyang, I had a lot of strength and could pinch open the chestnut shell at once, but it was slow and unhurried, and I had to peel it out completely before eating, and if it was slightly damaged, I put it aside and didn't eat it.
Seeing this, Mei shook his head, and resigned himself to the two children peeling chestnut meat, but he also showed a little satisfaction.
Gui's family room is so comfortable, at the gate of Mujia Village, in the wind and snow, there are a few horses in front of him.
On horseback, there are all horses wearing soap-colored official uniforms.
"Tietou, this Mujia Village, what did you do this year? How do you keep litigating? A young poor man complained.
The first elder said: "It's just one out, it's all the people of the Mei family who make trouble!" Their family is all confused, there is no oil and water, a few days ago, the two fathers and mothers were sued for stealing things, and the lawsuit has not yet been judged, and today it is the old man of his family who is susing. ”
The servants are also familiar with the Meiping family, but the Meiping family can speak in the yamen, and now everyone is on the order of the county lord, and they came down to collect evidence.
Coincidentally, Du Li Zheng had not yet returned, and when Li heard that the tolerance had arrived, he came out tremblingly, and he couldn't say anything. It was still Du Qi who was clever and knew everyone's intentions, so he took them directly to Mei An's house.
It is not only the Mei family's business, but it is still left to the Mei family to deal with.
Because Mei Tongsheng made that trouble in the morning, the Mei family became a joke again, Mei An was a little unhappy in her heart, seeing that Du Qi had led the official messenger over, she just thought that the Du family had made trouble with the government to support Mei Xiucai and his wife, and it was shocking. You must know that the Mei family is following the Gui family in a lawsuit, and if they are facing the Du family again, not to mention what they are being paid attention to, there is no chance of winning.
When he knew that the official had nothing to do with the Du family, it was Mei Ping who went to the county government to hand over a complaint to Mei Qingshu and his wife for "disobedience" Mei An insisted on vomiting blood.
The heaviest "stealing" is just a stream, and this "disobedience" is the heaviest but the head is going to be cut off, is your brother crazy? Buckle the basin for your own son like this?
Mei An stabilized her mind, wanted to defend her nephew, and then went to the yamen to call her brother back, but this matter is still "big things into small things, small things into small things".
The one who brought the messenger to verify the matter was none other than the Iron Monk's nephew, Tie Zhutou.
This wind and snow came over, for the sake of Gui Wu's face, and he also took the opportunity to sell Xinzhi County, naturally he wanted this thing to be beautiful, how could he allow Mei'an to "grow branches"?
Tie Zhutou made a stiff face, and said before Mei An spoke: "Lord County Zun ordered me to wait down to investigate this matter and see if there is any false accusation, if Diao Min makes trouble for no reason and plays with the government, then a hundred big boards are not fun!" ”
One sentence scared Mei An's previous words back.
How to condemn the nephew's guilt is still a matter for later, and the old brother's body and bones can not withstand a hundred boards.
Mei An has always been thoughtful, and always wants to be a thoughtful person, but she can't defend her nephew at the moment, so she can only say vaguely: "I have been separated for many years, and I don't know how to be careful." ”
Mei An said that he didn't know, and the iron catcher didn't let him go, and under the pretext that Du Li was not in the village, he ordered Mei An to lead the way to check the neighbors and in-laws of Mei Ping's family.
Mei Anxin was unwilling, but she didn't dare to refuse, so she could only follow with a bitter face.
In the eyes of the villagers, Mei An brought an official to the door, and they were all frightened, and they were all frightened.
They are all ordinary people, who can not be afraid of the people in the government?
When I heard that it was the lawsuit of the Mei family, Mei Ping went to the yamen to sue the eldest son and daughter-in-law, and the government sent someone to interrogate and verify the matter.
Even Mei Ping, the pro-Lao Tzu, sued Mei Qingshu's two in-laws, so can the two of them be a good one?
Besides, Mei Qingshu's family has always been stingy and stingy, and the ordinary people are less respectful to their in-laws, leaving a lot of pigtails outside. In addition, there was a matter of digging wells and bathing in the soup before, and everyone was tired of the Mei family's troubles, so they had to add oil and vinegar, and said that Mei Qingshu's in-laws were the most disobedient and unfilial couple.
Hearing this, all the officials smacked their tongues, and felt that the old saying was correct, this was really "poor mountains and bad waters out of the people".
Mei An had a gloomy face beside her, annoyed by her brother's old foolishness, and angry with the villagers.
The villagers saw that the officials were kind, not fierce, and they couldn't stop talking about gossip, and they asked a good thing: "The Mei family is disobedient to the old man, not only Mei Qingshu, but also the other two!" ”
"yes, yes!" Someone should make peace.
Mei An's eyes darkened, and she couldn't stand still.
