Chapter 110: Divorce
Hearing his mother-in-law say such words, Gao Quan couldn't cry or laugh. As a man, marrying a wife is naturally a beautiful marriage, so that it is not a loss, listen to the mother-in-law's meaning, how can you accept it ugly.
Since his brother-in-law Sun Yuan became the chief of grain, a lot of silver has been in and out of his hands, which really makes Gao Quan's eyes red. It's just that this kid is a bastard, and I'm also your brother-in-law, why don't you give me some money to play around?
So, while Sun Yuan went to Zhongdu on an errand, Gao Quan started Sun Li's idea.
In his opinion, his mother-in-law is also a tight-handed person, and she keeps her money very tightly, and it is extremely difficult to get a penny from her. However, she is not without weaknesses, that is, she dotes on her son and is very concerned about Sun Yuan's marriage. If this is done properly, it will not be difficult to get some money from her.
Gao Quan said in a positive way, so that you can tell your mother that Miss Niu has a very thick waist, although she is not very old, she can pick up a dung burden of two hundred catties and walk suddenly, and ordinary men are not as good as her. Whether it is planting seedlings or threshing, he is a good hand. That body is as wide as a door wrench, and you can eat a pound of rice and dry rice for each meal.
Speaking of this, Gao Quan actually felt a little ashamed: Is this a woman, it's just an animal.
Hearing his son-in-law describe the daughter of the Niu family like this, Sun Li laughed happily: "Okay, good, this woman is good, I like it." However, isn't it too good to eat? ”
I agreed to this family business.
Soon, the matchmaker made peace, the two parties exchanged marriage letters, and the Sun family also gave a bride price worth thirty taels of silver.
Of course, as Gao Quan, who single-handedly contributed to this matter, most of the thirty taels of silver fell into his pocket, and he made a ruthless fortune.
Later, the Niu family also came to Sun Yuan's house for a field trip. They also heard from the matchmaker that Sun Yuan is now one of Rugao's grain chiefs, and his family is well-off, but after all, seeing is believing.
After arriving at Sun Yuan's house, I saw that although Sun's house only had a few tiled houses, they were very neatly tied.
When I entered the house again, I saw that there was new furniture inside, mahogany tables and chairs, and white porcelain so bright that I could see the human figure. Although the Niu family didn't know how much these things were worth, they also knew that they were the best, and they were very satisfied.
At that moment, the two families invited the Chinese to write a marriage letter, and when the time was good, the two parties agreed to wait until May when there was nothing to do in the fields, and the marriage of Sun Yuan and the daughter of the Niu family would be done.
It was the first time that the Niu family went to Sun Yuan's house, and it was also the first time that Sun Li saw his future daughter-in-law. When I saw it, I liked it very much.
The daughter of the Niu family is named Niu Yuzhi, and indeed, this woman was born strong. Although it is not as strong as the door panel as Gao Quan said, it is chubby and gives people a feeling of collapse, and when he walks, his little belly flickers, which is very cute. Moreover, with small eyes, thick lips and garlic nose, ******, but it is a suitable man.
It's just that the mouth is a little bigger, and when you see people, you love to laugh, so big that you can almost stuff a goose egg. This is not beautiful, Sun Li comforted himself in his heart: his mouth eats all directions, Wangfu.
At that moment, Sun Li's heart was happy, so he sent the Niu family's woman two coins of silver for her clothes.
Niu Yuzhi's father's name is Niu Decao, and like his daughter, he is also a fat man, but he doesn't look very kind, and his eyes look a little philistine. The last time I came to Sun's house, I drilled directly into the house and looked around, even the thatched house, obviously stretching out the foundation of the Sun family.
This time, the father and daughter of the Niu family not only came to visit again, but even several brothers of the Niu family also came together, and suddenly, Sun Li's heart was a little flustered and had a bad feeling.
When I walked into the door of my yard, I saw a lot of villagers standing outside to watch the excitement, but it was crowded inside.
The in-laws Niu Decao was wearing a short coat, holding his arms, and sitting in the yard with Erlang's legs crossed. His face was full of hot sweat, and he couldn't help asking: "What about Sun Yuanniang, what about Sun Li, why haven't you come back, it's such a hot day, it's really a torture person?" ”
And on the bench under the eaves behind him, it was a mess of strangers, presumably the younger brothers of the cow grass.
An elder in the village who was familiar with the Sun family on weekdays smiled beside him: "Niu Da, why bother, why bother? Sun Yuan went to Fengyang on an errand, and it is estimated that it will take a while to come back, and he will wait for another month at most. ”
Niu Decao snorted coldly: "Lao Mao, don't look at me as an honest farmer, just come to deceive." Who doesn't know that Fengyang has been burned by the thieves, on the night of the fourteenth day of the first lunar month, didn't you see it in Rugao with your own eyes at that time? Sun Yuan happened to be in the city that day, and maybe he was killed by thieves. Even if you don't die under someone's knife, if you are caught, you won't want to come back in this life. ”
The old man ate the cow and hit the grass, his face turned red, and he couldn't stop coughing: "Cough, how to say this, how to say this!" Anyway, if he didn't see the corpse, Sun Yuan would not be considered dead. ”
Hearing him say this, Sun Li screamed sadly: "Yuan'er is still alive, but he has no travel expenses, and he can't come back, I will go to find him after I sell the mat." ”
Hearing Sun Li's shout, Niu Decao stood up and pretended to bow his hand: "It turned out that my mother came back." ”
Sun Li: "My father-in-law is in such a big battle today, what if it happens?" ”
Niu Decao said: "Whether Sun Yuan is dead or alive, no one knows. If he comes back, it's okay, this family business will naturally be recognized. But if he dies, or if he is snatched away by thieves, will my daughter be a widow? So my in-laws, I came here today to talk about this. This family business, will it be stopped? ”
Sun Li was a spirit, and he was immediately annoyed. She was originally a peasant woman, but she was not afraid of things, and couldn't help but shout: "No, the Sun and Niu families have agreed and also written a marriage letter, how can this matter be reversed." If you are going to get out of the marriage, the old man will inevitably go to the county yamen and ask the county lord to comment on this straightness. My son is also a grain chief, and he can speak to the county master. ”
"Since my mother-in-law has already talked about this, don't blame me for not giving face." Niu De Herb was a rude peasant, and his neck immediately turned red, and he shouted: "Don't really want the government to press me, I have already visited this matter clearly." Your son offended the little county honor, so he was sent a grain chief to send a broken envoy. Also, so many people went to Fengyang, and all they ate were autumn grain on the boat, and when they arrived at the ground, it was already a big shorter, and they couldn't enter the warehouse at all. This time, Mo said that Sun Yuan was ninety percent likely to die in Fengyang. Even if you are lucky enough to return to Rugao, you can't hand over the tolerance, and you can't avoid a capital crime. Say, "Can I marry my daughter into your house?" ”
"What, how can this be?" Sun Li's face turned pale, he staggered a few steps, and grabbed the elder of the same village: "His seventh uncle, what the Niu family said is true?" ”
"This, this ......" The man named Seventh Uncle was greatly embarrassed, but he couldn't speak.
Sun Li asked the others again: "You say, is this true, you all went to Fengyang." ”
The others also lowered their heads, not daring to look into Sun Yuan's mother's eyes.
At this time, a fat stupid girl rushed out of the room, threw half of the leftover cucumber on the ground, and held Niu Decao's hand and kept shaking: "Daddy, daddy, I like this house, I want to live here and not leave." ”
The fat girl who came out was Niu Yuzhi, the daughter of the Niu family.
Niu Decao: "Whatever you live, your marriage must be done." ”
He shook off his daughter's hand, walked in front of Sun Li's, and shouted, "Sun Li's, what do you think about the divorce?" Since everything is like this, the marriage contract between our two families is over. Moreover, your Sun Yuan offended Lei Tai and was sent to death. If our Niu family knew that this was the case from the beginning, how could we agree to this family business? Since this matter is your first reason, then don't think about taking the bride price back, and return the marriage certificate to my family quickly! ”
Sun Li calmed down for a moment and shook his head: "My son is fine, he will be back soon." This marriage has already been decided, and you have to agree if you don't agree! ”
"Okay, Sun Li. I respected you just now, so I called you in-laws. Since you won't let go, don't blame me for being rude. My Niu family is also a big family, but it's not easy to mess with. ”
After speaking, he shouted: "Do it!" ”
Several brothers of the Niu family jumped up at the same time, grabbed the sticks and hoes and were about to smash them at the doors and windows.
"Oh my God, is there still a royal law!" Sun Li screamed in sorrow, threw himself in front of the window, and guarded the window to death.
But she is just a woman, how can she stop the Niu brothers who are like wolves and tigers.
I only heard a burst of light and thoughts, and there were constantly pots and pans thrown into the yard, followed by chairs with missing legs, torn tents, and torn quilts.
Seeing that the Niu brothers were too fierce, and Sun Yuan's family was a foreign surname, the villagers of Quanshui Tai persuaded a few words, afraid of causing a fire, so they kept silent and watched the excitement on the side.
Sun Li couldn't help but cry loudly when he saw that he really couldn't stop them, and he missed his son.
At this time, suddenly, the people watching the excitement at the gate of the courtyard flashed out of a passage with a "whoosh", as if they had seen something terrible.
But I saw a young man about fourteen or fifteen years old carrying a waist knife, walked in coldly, and shouted: "What's the matter, is this the home of Brother Sun Yuan?" ”
This young man was dressed in brocade, his face was as white as jade, and at first glance he was a child of a rich and noble family, and he was carrying a weapon.
The people in the courtyard knew that this person had an extraordinary background, and at the same time stopped and quieted down, and no one dared to come forward to speak.
The young man who entered the hospital became impatient: "Is this the home of Brother Sun Yuan of Quanshui?" ”
"Yes, yes, this is the courtyard of Sun Yuan's house." A bold child answered.
The young man breathed a sigh of relief: "After walking for more than two months, it can be regarded as here." Then he turned his head and shouted impatiently to the sedan chair outside: "Sister, Brother Sun's house has arrived." ”
As the words fell, a sedan chair fell to the gate of the courtyard, followed by several carriages and more than a dozen servants. This situation is really amazing.
Another thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl walked into the courtyard and asked in a crisp voice, "Dare to ask, who is Mrs. Sun?" ”
Sun Yuan's mother was stunned: "I am, you know Yuan'er, where is he now?" As he spoke, his voice trembled.
The little girl was slightly blessed: "The maid Xiaomei has seen the old lady, Sun Xianggong is now paying an errand at the county yamen, and will come over later, Xiaomei will go back to the house with his wife first." ”
The young man with the waist knife also arched his hand: "Shao Wei has seen Madame!" ”
