Seven or eight hundred taels can start a money-making business, and in the eyes of the rich and noble, this capital is definitely not much.

But here is the idiot, to buy a dowry for Shun Niang today, it is all the silver money raised by selling a lot of things first, and it is only one hundred and eighty taels, and it is almost the same. Saburo looked at the idiot, showing some concern.

The Dao idiot's brows were also furrowed, and it took a long time before he got up as if he had made up his mind, and then entered the back room.

When he came out, he already had an extra coarse cloth package in his hand.

He opened the package, revealing the two rosewood boxes inside, and said, "These two things were given by the master, and I originally wanted to make a thought." ”

When it was opened, one was an eight-inch-tall standing statue of mutton fat white jade Guanyin, and the other was a half-foot-tall and half-foot-wide purple gold Maitreya.

Even if you are not an antique connoisseur, you can see that these two things are indeed good.

Rong Niang finally knew why she didn't have any money, and she dared to open a shop. The two things in front of me are the objects of the accumulation of years.

Looking at the reluctant appearance of the Taoist idiot, Rong Niang smiled: "The pawn is not good to ask for a price, and it is difficult to say how much silver can be exchanged for it; If you find a shop for these two things and sell them on consignment slowly, the cost will be enough. It's just that you want to keep it in mind. Whether it's pawning or consignment, it's not very proper. But if thou hast trusted me, pledge it to me, and I will lend you money. But the sisters and brothers also need to settle the accounts, and the monthly interest is indispensable. ”

Where is she scarce to make money, but she is afraid that the Taoist idiot will be embarrassed to borrow her money for nothing, so she said this.

Dao Idiot showed a look of gratitude and said, "Great, thank you, big sister...... These two things are really going to be handed over, and I'm really not at ease. ”

These two things were picked out from the old monk's secret collection when the Taoist idiot went down the mountain a few days ago. After all, Shun Niang is about to leave the cabinet, and the dowry is a big head. Now outsiders don't know the reason, when Shun Niang gets married and the dowry is placed in front of the world, there must always be a saying.

Take out these things, even if there is no match for the other silver coins, Rong Niang and San Lang will think that it is the private silver that the old monk gave him in the past.

Sure enough, Rong Niang also thought of this, her eyes softened, and said: "Master is Erlang's nobleman, although he is deceased, Erlang must also remember this kindness." ”

The idiot nodded, a little sentimental.

Rong Niang regretted mentioning this, and was a little embarrassed to look at the idiot, so she got up and said with a smile: "We have been out for a long time, and we should go home." You don't have to worry about the shop, while you are still on vacation, you can honor your uncle and grandmother. ”

The idiot answered, got up and sent them out.

Rong Niang and San Lang went to the room to say goodbye, Shun Niang's eyes were red, and tears were still on her face, and she personally sent the two sisters and brothers out.

The Taoist idiot did not forget the Guanyin and Maitreya, and after Rong Niang got in the car, he handed over the baggage. Rong Niang glanced at the idiot, took the burden, and left in the car with San Lang. In her heart, she wondered if it was too easy for Taoist idiots to trust people, so she was not afraid that she would hide her evil intentions and swallow these two things privately.

Saburo stared at the burden, eager to stare out of a hole.

Rong Niang saw that his demeanor was wrong, and said, "What do you think?" So distracted? ”

San Lang said whimfully: "Big sister, what's going on with my grandmother and father?" Even the old monk in the mountain house knows that Erlang is subsidized, and his grandmother and father just went through the motions at the beginning, and they didn't ask a word later? If it is said that the father is not a family and does not know money and is obsessed with oil and salt, it can still be said; And what about grandmothers? Is it true that because of the adoptive out, I don't think I should be my own grandson in my heart? ”

He was brought up by his grandmother, and he was pampered when he was young, if it weren't for his pure nature, and Wang Yang and Rong Niang were both staring at him, he would have been pampered a long time ago.

Now it's not easy to compare the idiots, thinking about everything he suffered when he was a child, Saburo was ashamed and uneasy, and he always felt that something was wrong.

"Isn't there a saying, 'Love House and Wu'? Even if the grandmother doesn't think that Erlang is her own grandson, for the sake of Aunt Cui, she shouldn't ignore it like this. San Lang was puzzled: "For more than a year, my father occasionally mentioned Erlang, but my grandmother never mentioned it. Even knew earlier that I came to see Erlang, and there was a big fire. Later, I didn't dare to tell her the truth anymore, and it was better. ”

Maybe it's because Aunt Cui didn't die early, but after the two sisters and brothers returned to their hometowns, they came out with a cousin, and they knew that there was a noble concubine in the early years of the family, who was the grandmother's niece.

At the beginning, because of the succession, there was anything to say outside, and Wang Yang didn't want his children to mishear people's words and be separated from him, so he told them everything he had suffered back then.

Even after many years, Wang Yang, who can retell this past, is still in pain, speechless and choking.

Rong Niang and San Lang always thought that their parents were compatible, but they didn't expect that there would be an episode of taking a concubine.

It is said that there are three unfilial ones, and no queen is the greatest, but the two sisters and brothers also felt chills in their hearts after listening to this "history of concubines".

Think about the mother at that time, who was born prematurely and injured herself, was diagnosed by the doctor as difficult to get pregnant again, or because she ran thousands of miles with her husband to mourn, and the two sisters-in-law died subsequently.

What a cruel thing for a mother.

But no one forgave her for having a son-in-law, but felt that she had no son, delayed the opening of the twelve rooms, and decided to be a concubine without waiting for the filial piety period. When they were out of service, the newcomer was immediately carried into the house.

Later, her father recovered, and the old lady took advantage of her filial piety to arrange for Aunt Cui to follow her to take office, leaving her daughter-in-law to fulfill her filial piety in her hometown.

As a result, just before departure, the wife and concubine were found to be pregnant at the same time, so they stayed in their hometown to give birth.

Listening to this past, the two sisters and brothers originally had some objections to Erlang's succession, and they couldn't bear to mention it before Wang Yang's meeting.

Regardless of whether Erlang is innocent or not, his biological mother did hurt her own mother and was sad.

Both sisters and brothers knew in their hearts that the tragedy of that year was caused by their grandmother's paranoia. Even if the old man is worried about the family's heirs, if there are some humane and pitiful daughters-in-law, and if they mention the matter of concubines a year or two later, Wang Yang's sister-in-law will be born, and naturally they will not get a "noble concubine".

Now the old lady is paranoid again, although they are juniors who are not good at saying anything, but they disagree with it very much.

Because the old lady is the elder, even if they do not agree with the old lady's actions, they are not qualified to persuade them.

Today, San Lang mentioned his incomprehension, and Rong Niang was also confused: "What happened back then?" Why would my grandmother be so intolerant of Erlang? If it was just to abandon Erlang back then, I would feel uncomfortable, and I would have been out of the step, and I should start to feel guilty after I was uncomfortable. Listening to her mother's meaning, her grandmother loved Aunt Cui very much back then, and even if she succeeded Erlang out, she was biting him to punish his relatives, as if she was holding grievances for her niece. But before returning to my hometown, I had never heard my grandmother mention Aunt Cui, what was the reason for this? ”

Speaking of this, the sister and brother glanced at each other, and their eyes were a little suspicious.

If it's not "love the house and the black", then "hate the house and the black".

Could it be that Aunt Cui had something unscrupulous back then, which caused the old lady to be disgusted, and even the child she gave birth to was not welcomed.

Could it be that Erlang is not the flesh and blood of the twelfth room, which makes the old lady unable to tolerate it.

But only the idiot's similar appearance to Saburo Wufen negates this possibility.

What happened back then?

Rong Niang frowned and said: "Grandmother values the heir the most, if Aunt Cui really does something that annoys her, it will probably be in the heir." What really happened back then? ”

If you don't think about these things, it's fine, but if you really think about them, you can't help but feel a little estranged in your heart.

If Aunt Cui is just a pure and harmless woman who died in childbirth, if she is really a vicious woman with a femme fatale, then Erlang is her son, will she be like a mother?

Rong Niang doesn't hate this cousin, and is willing to connive at San Lang to get close to him, provided that the cousin knows how to be grateful and harmless, but he doesn't plan to raise a poisonous snake by his side.

San Lang didn't think as much as Rong Niang thought, he only sneered: "I heard that some families, when they see their concubines and grandsons, they will suppress them and not let them go over the branches." Grandmother doesn't think about people like this, does she see that Erlang is smart and capable, and she is afraid of passing me, so she gets tired of Erlang? ”

Rong Niang was stunned when she heard this, thinking that there was really this possibility.

The grandmother hurts the most is not her son, but her grandson Saburo, who is clearly eccentric. Her granddaughter and Gorou combined, the weight of her grandmother is not as good as Saburo's.

But is the answer that simple?

When the Taoist idiot first came down the mountain last year, a gray little monk, where did he show his intelligence? Even after his succession, they never thought that Erlang would study so diligently and successfully pass the county and government exams.

Last year's San Lang was a well-known young talent in the family.

Just for a precaution, I don't want a grandson, I always feel that something is wrong.

Rong Niang squinted, and when she was done with the pawnshop, she could explore the past and what happened back then.

There was no reason for anything big, my mother didn't know, but looking at her story, it seemed to be calm back then, not like something big had happened......

*

After Shunniang was dismissed by Wang Ning's family, she didn't say anything unwanted, but just looked at the eyes of the idiot, full of gratitude and touch.

The days were calm and waveless, and the days passed in a blink of an eye.

Wang Ning and Shun Niang began to pinch their fingers, waiting for the news of the township test.

The idiot felt that the days were too clean, and he was a little uncomfortable, but after thinking about it carefully, he found that there was no noise from Wang Qi for several days.

This is too unusual, in the past, on a three-day holiday, Wang Qi had to go to the outer nine rooms once or twice, but this time there was no movement in the first ten days.

Even Wang Ning's family began to talk about Wang Qi, the Taoist idiot didn't go out for a few days, and he wanted to go out to breathe, so he took the sting and walked to the sect's room.

When he arrived at the Zongfang, the Taoist idiot knew that Wang Qi had gone to Wuchang Mansion with Wang Zhen as early as August 16.

When the idiot heard it, he couldn't help but regret it, he heard Wang Qi say it before, Wang Zhen went to Wuchang Mansion after the Mid-Autumn Festival, mainly to pick up two candidates in the second room.

At that time, he was uncomfortable with the death of the old monk, and he didn't have the heart to think about it, so he heard it.

If you pay attention to it at that time, you can travel with Wang Zhen and see the world.

Pity him for all these years of coming to Daming, he has been walking around Anlu City, and the farthest place is the tomb of King Liang. It's too late to say anything now, count the days, and tomorrow will be the release period
