12. Windfall
"What a cheap little prostitute, the old lady knows that she is a restless inside, just hook up three or four in it, and sure enough, she will pay attention to you, see if the old lady goes back and doesn't tear her!" Thinking of the return of her son's blue nose and swollen face last time, Widow Li suddenly scolded in distress, and the three white eyes that rose up seemed to grow on the head of a toad.
Li Guigui, who was unable to avoid it, was sprayed with saliva, he wiped his face in disgust and took two steps back, and despised the vulgarity shown by his own mother in his heart: "I have my own way to deal with the little prostitute, don't go to her to trouble my merits." ”
Widow Li, who was already thinking about how to go to the Guo family to make a good scene, so that the Guo family's reputation in Lijia Village would be easy to let go of this opportunity, and said unhappily: "My mother will seek justice for you in this matter, lest the little prostitute seduce you again and restrain you." ”
"No way, you are forbidden to meddle in this matter!" What I promised to Brother Qiang, where can Li Guigui ruin Widow Li: "I have already thought of a way to make the little prostitute unable to stay in the village, maybe I can make a windfall, if you interfere, how can I get out of that bad breath and make that windfall?" ”
Seeing that her son's expression had changed, she was already very unhappy, but Widow Li didn't dare to insist anymore.
Hmph, the little prostitute can't please her, so she will let her be arrogant for a few more days, and when she resists and doesn't know what she is doing, isn't it more relieving?
Thinking of this, Widow Li's mood became inexplicably comfortable, and she reminded Li Guigui: "Then the mother won't interfere, Bao'er, you have to be careful yourself, but you can't fall into the way of a little prostitute and be puzzled by her." ”
"I know, I know, you hurry back and stare at the Guo family, and report to me immediately if you have anything." Li Guigui waved his hand like a fly, urging Widow Li to leave quickly.
Widow Li didn't care, she didn't think that there was anything wrong with being instigated by her son so unceremoniously, and she kept telling her a lot of words, and then she stopped before Li Guigui went berserk.
At this time, Guo Mianmian, who was discussing with her family at home to put buying cattle on the agenda, didn't know that she was thinking about the Li family's mother again, not only becoming a little prostitute in their eyes, but also an unwarranted "adulterer".
The Guo family planned to buy cattle, but they didn't want to empty their family funds so they put it down temporarily, and now they have the flower sauce to make a living, so they don't have this sorrow.
"There are no cattle raisers in our village, but there are cattle raisers in Shangzheng Village, which is very close to our village, why don't we ask an acquaintance to ask?"
In view of the fact that the risk of going to the county seat to buy cattle was too great, the Guo family did not dare to buy it rashly with the silver, so the family got together to discuss the feasible methods, and Guo honestly said his thoughts.
Shangzheng Village?
Guo Mianmian thought it was inexplicably familiar, she thought about it carefully, and remembered that when she was molested by Li Guigui a few days ago, the person who saved her reported to her home, wasn't it inconvenient for Zheng Zhuang to go to Zheng Village?
Everyone was thinking about which Zheng family Guo was honestly talking about, and no one noticed the difference in Guo Mianmian for a while.
Mu lowered his head and thought for a while, and his face suddenly showed a sudden look: "Old leader, are you talking about Zongzi joining the army for his father at the age of fifteen, saying that he died in battle, and then returned with all beards and tails, and brought the Zheng family with a thriving family?" ”
"Yes, yes, it's the Zheng family!" Guo Laoshi nodded quickly, and said excitedly: "Uncle Lao Gen of our village is related to the Zheng family, so it is inconvenient to ask Uncle Lao Gen a few eggs to come to the door to ask which cattle merchant the Zheng family bought from, can you ask them for a favor, let us talk to the cattle merchant." ”
"I think this idea will work, I'll plan a few eggs later, and you can take them to Uncle Lao Gen to chat." Confirming that it was the Zheng family, the Mu family immediately took the initiative of his wife, and showed a touch of sentimentality on his face: "I don't know what virtue the Zheng family has accumulated, raising such a capable and filial son, if it weren't for the fact that the army dragged him older, he was in such an embarrassing situation, I am afraid that the threshold would be trampled by the tooth wife." ”
Speaking of this, Mu suddenly thought of something, and vaguely looked at his daughter on the side, his eyes were burning and shining.
Guo Mianmian was fascinated by what he was listening to, and he was also a little curious about the old man who filled the legendary color of the Zheng family, so he didn't realize that his mother's mind had been rushing all the way towards the unpredictable direction.
On the other hand, Liu on the side saw this scene, and guessed her mother-in-law's mind in a flash, and couldn't help but elbow her husband who stabbed her by the side, thinking that the time she was waiting for seemed to be coming......
Although Liu has his own small total, he really has no bad intentions......
At dusk that day, Guo Laoshi took ten eggs to the village to find Uncle Lao Gen, and after a few small talks, he made his intentions clear.
Uncle Lao Gen was a kind Bai Suo, and when he learned that the Guo family really wanted to buy cattle, he was only surprised for a moment and sincerely congratulated Guo honestly, and agreed to go to the Zheng family to inquire about the cattle merchants.
Uncle Lao Gen and the deceased Mrs. Zheng of the Zheng family are cousins, one table is three thousand miles, the two families are not cordial, and they will only walk around during the New Year's holidays.
This time I went to the Zheng family to say a word, it didn't take much trouble for Uncle Lao Gen, he was strong and didn't want the Guo family's eggs, only said that if the Zheng family helped the Guo family get in touch with a reliable cattle businessman, let the Guo family prepare a gift to send to the Zheng family.
No matter how small the busyness is, it is also bothering people, Guo Laoshi is willing to work in vain, and he threw down the egg and ran away in a hurry.
Uncle Lao Gen couldn't catch up when he was old, so he looked at those eggs and thought deeply about sending them back, so he decided to take them to his cousin's nephew's house the next day as a thank you gift from the Guo family.
At noon the next day, Uncle Lao Gen, who had returned from Shangzheng Village, couldn't take a break, so he came to Guo's house again and again.
Mu Shi hurriedly went to the kitchen and personally melted a large bowl of brown sugar water and brought it to the hall to entertain Uncle Lao Gen.
Running back and forth on a hot day, the thirsty old Uncle Gen was not polite, and took the tea bowl and drank it to the bottom.
In the expectant eyes of everyone in the Guo family, Uncle Lao Gen smiled and said the news he had obtained: "The boss of my cousin's nephew's family happens to go to the county seat to do business, and whoever of your family has time to go with him the day after tomorrow, and he will personally take you to meet the cattle merchant." ”
This is undoubtedly good news for the Guo family, who are eager to buy cattle. Guo Laoshi almost didn't think about it, pointed to Guo Shu and Guo Lin, and said, "The day after tomorrow, you two will go together, if you can meet a suitable cow, you can buy it quickly." If not, the deposit was given politely, and the cattle merchant was asked to assist in the search. ”
Guo Shu and Guo Lin brothers were very excited when they heard this, they hadn't been to the county seat since they were so big, and they didn't even know what the county town was like, but they didn't expect to be able to see it this time.
Just about to agree, Guo Lin looked at his wife and son, and suddenly thought of something, and said to Guo honestly: "Dad, the day after tomorrow, my brother-in-law's family will hold a full moon banquet, and my son will accompany the Liu family to congratulate him, and he can't go to the city to buy cattle with his eldest brother!" ”
Liu's maiden father raised three or four daughters of the Liu family, but only had one son. Not long ago, Liu's only younger brother gave birth to a son after his wife gave birth to four daughters, and he didn't let the old Liu family cut off the incense.
This man has great benefits for the Liu family, so even if the Liu family's life is not too good, he planned a full moon banquet and invited all his relatives and close friends.
As the child's closest uncle and aunt, Mr. and Mrs. Guo Lin not only cannot be absent, but also prepare a generous gift.
As soon as Guo Lin said this, Guo Laoshi also remembered this stubble, he patted his head and said with some annoyance: "Look at me, I am happy to forget about this!" So, I'll go with the eldest the day after tomorrow, and the second one will do whatever you want. ”
"This ...... It can only be like this...... "Although I really want to go to the county seat to see it, the reality does not allow it, so Guo Lin has no choice but to agree."
After Uncle Lao Gen left, Guo Mianmian, who was not very good at speaking just now, said to Guo honestly: "Dad, my daughter happens to have something to do and needs to go to the county seat, so let my daughter go with you and eldest brother the day after tomorrow!" ”
Guo Mianmian had never confided in the county seat before, Guo Laoshi suddenly heard this and asked clearly: "Sanya, what do you have to do in the county seat?" ”
Guo Mianmian hesitated for a moment, didn't say the reason, and arbitrarily found a reason: "Doesn't my daughter want to open a pastry shop, so I want to go to the county seat to see the environment first, if this shop can be opened, my daughter should make plans early." ”
Guo Mianmian's plan to open a pastry shop, the Guo family knows. Guo honestly believed his daughter's words, and said with a loving expression: "The county seat is not as good as the town, far away from us, and it is not good to return at night, so it is too tiring, why don't you take two days to accompany you next time?" ”
Lijia Village belongs to the control of Taoyuan Town, and Taoyuan Town is one of the eight towns in Yunlai County, so if Lijia Village has something to do in the county, it must go to Yunlai County. It's just that the distance between the two places is indeed very far, and this time you have to walk back and forth for four or five hours, which is matched by one day.
"Dad, if we don't come back that day, we can find a stack to stay overnight, we don't have to rush to the house, it is important to be able to sell the cattle smoothly." Guo Mianmian shook his head and indirectly rejected Guo Honest's initiation.
Thousands of miles have been walked, this trip of less than 100 miles is not a problem for Guo Mianmian at all, no matter how far Yunlai County is, she has to go there.
Speaking of which, Guo Laoshi knew that he couldn't stop clearly, so he could only agree: "In that, our grandfather and we will all go, that is, we will have a dream of the day after tomorrow, and you can put the Kunkun well before you go, so that you will not be afraid if this child does not see you for a day." ”
"Well, my daughter will tell him well." Guo Mianmian touched Kunkun's head and responded with a smile.
……
Time flies, and soon the day will come to the county seat.
As soon as the apocalypse star rose into the sky, the grandfather of the Guo family walked out of the house and walked towards the direction of Taoyuan Town.
Just yesterday, the boss of the Zheng family specially asked Uncle Lao Gen to take the word and told the Guo family to meet him under the big tree at the entrance of Taoyuan Town before six o'clock, so that he could go early and return early.
