Fennel couldn't get used to the surname of Sang Mu Nade, and said coldly in the lobby: "My brother hasn't married a wife yet, first have a wife and then have a concubine, this matter of taking a concubine, the eight characters haven't been skimmed yet, don't open your mouth and close your mouth in front of outsiders to be an aunt, a girl from a good family can taboo this, you can't afford to pay for my brother's marriage!" ”

Sang Xiaomei's pretty face turned red with shame, turned her head and squeezed out of the crowd and ran home. Huang Qin was afraid that something would happen to Sang Xiaomei, so she hurriedly followed the crowd and chased after her.

Sang Mu was very afraid of fennel, not to mention that when she begged for someone now, she didn't hear it, and gave a blessing: "It's nothing, you're busy, I'll go back first!" As he spoke, he twisted his swollen fat buttocks and squeezed out of the crowd to go home like a female duck.

Father Sang and they couldn't imagine that Mother Sang didn't mention the bride price of the concubine, so they were a little strange, and they came up and whispered, "What's wrong?" Why don't you say it? ”

Sang Mu said: "Ni Er just touched a nose of ash, as soon as we opened our mouths, the end was the same." Besides, didn't you hear what Zuo Gui said to Ni Er before? Zuo Gui said, this place is Xiao Langzhong's final say, and it's useless to find him Zuo Gui! I have to find Xiao Langzhong to say! ”

"Xiao Langzhong is in Longzhou!"

"Look for him."

"...... your bones?"

"I can't take care of it!" Sang Mu looked left and right, and said in a low voice, "The price of Hezhou fields has skyrocketed three times, and Xiao Langzhong may not know about this matter, so I have to rush to Longzhou immediately, and beg grandpa to tell grandma that Xiao Langzhong has to take the land to offset the bride price, we still don't increase the price, as long as he takes 35 acres of land to offset the bride price!" Thirty-five acres of land used to be worth seventy yuan, and now, hehe, it's worth two hundred and ten yuan! Seventy bride price, plus thirty-five tea shop, a total of only one hundred and five, if he is willing to offset the bride price, we don't want him to return the tea shop, but also to earn back the money of the tea shop, do not increase the price of the bride price, can also earn more than 100 yuan, with money, still worry about not opening a tea shop? Quack"

Father Sang slapped his head and said with a low smile: "Thanks to the lady's thoughtfulness, this is a good idea!" Let's rush to Longzhou immediately! ”

"Don't worry, you have to persuade my little sister to go with me."

"Why?"

"Are you stupid?" Sang Mu laughed and scolded in a low voice, "Relying on our two old things, can we convince Xiao Langzhong?" It depends on the little sister, as long as the little sister is willing to come forward to say this, there is no one in the little lang who does not agree, their family now has thousands of acres of land, seventy acres of land is a fart? Say yes! That's when we sent it! ”

Father Sang said: "I'm afraid that my little sister won't agree." ”

"That's why I have to find a way! The little sister eats soft and not hard, and she has a soft heart, so she can only cry and beg her when she goes back, for the sake of money, there is no way. ”

"Okay......"

―――――――――――――――― in the boudoir of Sang Xiaomei on the second floor of the Qingxiang Tea Shop.

Sang Xiaomei threw herself on the bed and whimpered and cried.

Mulberry's mother and Sang Daddy also cried sadly with a handful of snot and tears, they had been crying for most of the hour, crying while talking about the bitterness of the two of them, saying how the little sister was mischievous and disobedient when she was a child, how the two of them bothered to pull her long, and wanted to use the bittersweet memories to impress Sang Xiaomei's heart, so that she promised to go to Longzhou to persuade Zuo Shaoyang to promise to take 35 acres of fertile land as a dowry. But Sang Xiaomei kept crying, neither saying yes nor no.

Sang's mother and the two swore not to give up if they didn't achieve their goal this time, so they simply knelt on the ground and begged, asking her to think about her father's future life, and give them both a bite to eat, as if Sang Xiaomei didn't agree, and they would starve to death on the spot.

Sang Xiaomei still lay on the bed crying and didn't speak.

Huang Qin was originally accompanied, but she covered her mouth and ran out several times, and finally said to Sangmu and the two: "Don't talk about it yet, let me persuade the little sister." Let's see if she can say yes. ”

Sang's mother didn't expect Huang Qin to be her lobbyist at this critical time, she was overjoyed, and the anger that Huang Qin was angry about just now was gone, and she nodded her head and agreed, their sister-in-law has always had a good relationship, like sisters, if Huang Qin is willing to persuade, she may be able to persuade her little sister to agree.

After thanking them, Sang Mu and the others exited the room. Huang Qin went out and saw them all go down the stairs, and then closed the door and bolted it. Then he crouched in the corner and retched.

Sang Xiaomei stopped crying, turned over and sat up, and looked at Huang Qin: "Sister-in-law, you, what's wrong with you?" ”

Huang Qin sat on the ground weakly, covering her face, and her voice was as thin as a mosquito: "I ......, I'm just afraid that I'm ...... and I'm pregnant with ......."

"What do you say? Pregnant? ”

"Hmmm......"

"Who's?"

"It's ......, Big Brother White's ......"

"What?" Sang Xiaomei almost fell from the bed to the ground, propped up the edge of the bed and asked, "What's going on?" ”

Huang Qin's tears swirled in her eyes, and she sniffed: "On the day two months ago, it was the day of Zuo Gongzi's father's birthday, I was drunk, and Brother Bai helped me back to sleep in the attic of the back garden, and we were both drunk, so we ......"

Sang Xiaomei sat on the bed weakly, looking at Huang Qin blankly, not knowing whether to scold her and beat her, or sympathize with her. Tears rolled down again.

The two of them sat on the bed like this, and the other sat on the floor, each silently weeping.

I don't know how long it took, there was a knock on the door of Sang's mother: "Baby daughter-in-law, how is it?" ”

Sang Xiaomei jumped out of bed, walked straight to the back of the door, took off the latch, pulled the door open, sniffed, and said, "Mother, I'll go with you!" However, let my sister-in-law accompany me too! ”

Sang Mu laughed so hard that her mouth hung behind her ears. The biggest thing now is this, how can Sang Mu not agree, and nodded hurriedly: "Without further ado, let's leave immediately!" I'm going to hire a carriage! ”

Two months had passed since the famine, and tens of thousands of people had traveled long distances to drive carts and donkeys to Hezhou, and the number of cattle had suddenly increased, so it was relatively easy to hire a carriage. is no better than Zuo Shaoyang and them, when they left, they had no carriage, so they could only take an ox cart.

Sang Mu said, twisted her fat buttocks and went downstairs to prepare.

Sang Xiaomei closed the door and began to pack her bags.

Huang Qin had already stood up, walked over and said, "Little sister, ...... are you?" ”

Sang Xiaomei turned around and looked at her: "I'll go and tell Zuo Gongzi to let him give Big Brother Bai freedom, you guys elope!" ”

Huang Qin was pleasantly surprised, grabbed Sang Xiaomei's hand, choked and whispered: "I'm sorry ......, I'm sorry for your brother......"

"No!" Sang Xiaomei said sadly: "It's my brother who is sorry for you first, let you suffer from being widowed for so many years, and now that you meet the man you love, just follow him." It's okay, don't worry about my brother, he can only drag other girls down for a lifetime when he marries a daughter-in-law! ”

Huang Qin hesitated for a moment and said in a low voice: "I still tell you something, you promise me, don't tell your parents-in-law and mother-in-law first!" ”

"Well, I don't say."

"Your brother ......" Huang Qin gritted her teeth lightly, "Your brother is already able to have sex!" ”

Sang Xiaomei couldn't help but sigh: "Then you still ......?" ”

"Listen to me!" Huang Qin glanced at the door and listened attentively, her mother-in-law was downstairs shouting for Sang Wazi to hire a car, and she and Sang Daddy were ready to pack their bags, Huang Qin said in a low voice, "Your brother has taken the medicine prescribed by Zuo Gongzi for half a month, and he is almost able to get up, he wants to have a round room with me that day, but I ......, after I followed Brother Bai that night, I only have him in my heart, and I can't tolerate other men, so I took the money and gave him to find Sister Yao." These days, he goes every now and then, and occasionally pesters me to ...... at night, I see that he is talking up, but I just don't want to have sex with him, so I took the money and sent him to find Sister Yao. Later, when I found out that I was pregnant with Big Brother Bai's child, I didn't want him to touch me even more. So......, if I am lucky enough to elope with Brother Bai, you can also find a new sister-in-law for your brother, who can help your Sang family inherit the lineage. ”

Sang Xiaomei was ashamed and embarrassed to hear this, and she was also very happy for her brother, and at the same time, she also diluted her helpless resentment towards Huang Qin.

The carriage was soon hired, and everyone was ready to pack their bags, leaving only the mulberry to look after the house. The four of them rushed to Longzhou in a carriage, and said goodbye to the handlebar, and they kept going all night and night, and the car cost doubled. In order to make a lot of money, this small amount of money is still willing to be spent.

The horse-drawn cart was much faster than the ox-cart, and it was a starry night, so it only took two days and one night to arrive at Longzhou.

When I entered the city, it was already evening, and I heard Zuo Gui tell Fan Heimian that Zuo Shaoyang was recommended by Hengchang Pharmaceutical to go to Longzhou for diagnosis, so Hengchang Pharmaceutical must know Zuo Shaoyang's residence.

After the carriage entered the city, I inquired about the road to the branch of Hengchang Medicine Store, got out of the car, and after making sure that it was right, I paid the money and let the carriage go. Then Sang Mu and the others entered the medicine store.

A guy who answered the door greeted him: "A few guest officers, do you want to buy medicine?" ”

"Ah no, little brother, I'm looking for someone, is your shopkeeper there?"

"I'm sorry, but the shopkeeper isn't here."

"Oh, let me ask you about a person, Hezhou Guizhitang Xiaolang Zhongzuo Zhongzuo Shaoyang, little brother, do you know where he is? It was the old shopkeeper of your Hengchang Pharmaceutical Store in Hezhou who recommended him to come to Longzhou to see a doctor. ”

The guy looked Sang Mu and the others up and down: "...... are you?" ”

"Oh, our surname is Sang, and we opened a fragrant tea shop in Hezhou, of course, ......, and later sold it to Zuo Langzhong, because our two families are relatives, well, I am his in-laws, and my daughter is married to his family......"

Sang Mu's puffy face was full of smiles, and she said slowly. Along the way, her puffiness has become a little worse.

The guy hurriedly laughed and said, "It turned out that Young Master Zuo's family was here, and our shopkeeper was to accompany Young Master Zuo to see a doctor." ”

"Oh!" When Tan heard Zuo Shaoyang's news, the Sang family breathed a sigh of relief, and Sang's mother said, "Does that little brother know where Zuo Gongzi went to see a doctor?" ”

"It's hard to say. During this time, Young Master Zuo was busy, and someone came to invite him early in the morning, and he didn't return to the inn until the first watch. - By the way, now that the sun is setting, it's almost time for Young Master Zuo to come back, but he doesn't live with us, it's too shabby, he lives in an inn not far from here. Well, I'll take you. ”

"Oh, that's so thankful, little brother." When there is a request for help, the mouth of the mulberry mother is very sweet.
