Chapter 162: Merit

When I returned, I thought the smell was wafting from the kitchen next door.

When they saw Guo Zhi busy in the kitchen and the bubbling soup pot on the stove, they realized that they were stewing chicken.

Fu thought that Guo Zhi had slaughtered his chickens, so he ran to the chicken pen with an ugly expression to count the chickens, and found that the number was correct before returning to normal, and even brought a freehand smile.

Seeing this, Guo secretly scolded Guo Zhi for being a man, but said: "Brother and sister, you can be regarded as a return, the family has been busy and crazy these days, and my mother's back pain has been committed twice!" ”

When Fu Shi, who had just or a good expression, heard this, an old face collapsed and looked mean, she glanced at Guo Zhi, and she was thinking about taking the three hundred yuan in her heart, so she pursed her mouth and didn't speak, but she didn't stop Guo.

Regarding the three wives of his subordinates, Fu Shile saw that they were in conflict, otherwise she would not be a good mother-in-law. Although Guo Zhi got back the good things this time, she didn't forget the scene that happened a year ago, and from that time on, she continued to watch out for Guo Zhi, afraid that she would be a demon again.

Guo Zhi is not stupid, where is it not clear that this mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are in their hearts? She smiled coldly and said to Guo: "I guessed that my mother's body was not comfortable, so I left my mother's work and deliberately took the chicken and rabbit back to my mother to make up for her body, but the second sister-in-law, you know that your mother is not comfortable and does not do your mother's work together, how can you say that you are still young, get up early in the morning, and it is not in the way to go back at night." ”

was caught off guard by the thief shouting to catch the thief, and Guo's face turned green. She looked at Fu Shi, whose expression was becoming more and more ugly, and she took two steps back and didn't dare to squeak in the future.

Fu secretly scolded "useless things", and glanced at Xiao Fu who was watching the play on the side.

Xiao Fu's is the roundworm in Fu's stomach, and Fu's intentions are clear with a look, so she quickly stood up and fired at Guo Zhi: "Third brother and sister, what you said is wrong, the second brother and sister didn't do their mother's business together, and they were not idle, but as soon as you returned to your mother's house, it was half a month, and some people in the village were gossiping." ”

If it was in the past, Guo Zhi would really take care of the eyesight of others. Now, there is a sister as a model, she has long stopped taking these things into account, and it is only right to live her own life.

Therefore, when she heard Xiao Fu's words, she was not stable at all, but asked with great interest: "Gossip?" What gossip is the people in the village, sister-in-law, you should learn it for me. ”

Xiao Fu touched Guo Zhi's intention to forbid him, and after a few glances at her, he really said: "What else can you say?" It's inconvenient to say that you don't have a heart to be lazy, that you have an outside heart, and you want to leave the third uncle and Qinqin and run away with the man? ”

After Guo Zhi listened, he hadn't spoken yet, and Huang Mutou, who had just washed his hands and face, heard this, and immediately turned cold: "Sister-in-law, outsiders don't know what Baole Niang is doing, and you don't know?" Bao Le Niang has lost her reputation, what good is it for our family? ”

Xiao Fu was embarrassed and annoyed for a while, and said angrily: "It's like this from inside, and it's not what I said, if you don't teach your mother-in-law who is not at home, why do you call me?" I don't see my sister-in-law in your eyes! ”

Huang Mutou is not good at words, it doesn't mean that he won't protect his wife and children. Seeing that Xiao Fu's family began to mess around, he knew that he was better than her and said to Fu Shi: "Mother, why do outsiders say that I can't control it, who at home says that Baole Niang gossips, don't blame me for not being human." ”

Fu Shi was so angry that he fell back, pointed at the yellow wood and scolded: "You unfilial thing, your sister-in-law said a few words about your mother-in-law, and you pushed the matter on the old lady, are you saying that the old lady can't see your mother-in-law behind the back?" ”

Huang Mu did not speak, he knew that without his mother's acquiescence, the eldest sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law did not dare to find the trouble of his wife and children, and now that he was being scolded by his mother, he could only choose to be silent if he nodded his head.

Saying that, he didn't have the intention of blaming, just because this family was his mother, and his mother could suppress the sister-in-law and sister-in-law so that they wouldn't always be troubled by his wife and children, and this family would be calm, and he wouldn't always be noisy and restless about some trivial things, and outsiders would look at their own gossip.

How could Fu Shi understand his son's good suffering, seeing that he was silent, he became more and more angry: "Okay, good, you are biased towards your mother-in-law, your sister-in-law said a few words, and you still criticized the old lady, good, good, the old lady really raised a good son!" ”

Huang Mutou was still silent, if he had done it in the past, he would not hesitate to rush up to admit his mistake and appease the Fu family, since the last time he made a big fuss and saw the position of his family in this family, his heart was cold, and the Fu family no longer had the patience he had in the past.

Guo Zhi, who came forward for her husband herself, didn't mention how happy she was in her heart, but she couldn't see her mother-in-law scolding her husband for being unfilial. Before her father-in-law and two other uncles came up to blame her, she shouted loudly:

"It's the eldest sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law who can't see me go to my mother's house to help, looking for pinched words to squeeze me, mother, you don't know that I went back to my mother's house to help our family earn money, don't forget, that's 300 yuan, enough for our family to hire a strong laborer to help do more than ten days of work, if you don't want this money, I will use this money to ask for personal assistance, which is considered to be working for me."

As soon as these words came out, not to mention the rest of the people, the Fu family, who had just scolded energetically, also died down.

After a moment of silence, Old Man Huang coughed a few times, and automatically said to Guo Zhi: "The work in the field is busy, there is no need to extravagant money to hire someone to do it, you can treat your mother's family to do things well, and you don't have to worry about it at home." ”

This is still in the ear, Guo Zhi also got off the donkey down the slope: "Then listen to my father, don't invite me, and when I'm done with my busy work for a while, I'll return the reward, and I'll be filial to you a lot." ”

Although Old Man Huang is the head of the family, all the financial power of the Huang family is monopolized by the Fu family, and the money in his hand has never exceeded fifty yuan.

Now seeing that San'er's wife automatically wants to hand over the three hundred yuan to herself, Old Man Huang can't care about Fu's cold face, rubs his hands and says excitedly: "Okay, you can be filial to whoever you want to be filial to with the money you earn, it is the same for me or to your mother." ”

Looking at the mother-in-law with an increasingly gloomy expression and the father-in-law who smiled as if he was going to be the groom's official, Guo Zhi had a clear understanding. She put down her thoughts, and said to Huang Mutou with a smile: "Daddy and mother are tired all morning, you should be hungry now, you can quickly bring out the food." ”

Huang Mutou didn't want to face his mother's murderous eyesight, so he replied respectfully: "I'll go now, you go and call Lingling Qinqin to come out and wash your hands and eat." ”

……

The pheasant soup was stewed a long time ago, and the two chicken legs were also taken out by Guo Zhi early and distributed to his children and grandchildren, and a few pieces of good meat were deliberately set aside, and they were pressed under the yellow wood rice when the rice was served.

When eating, the Huang family did not find the chicken legs, so they knew that they had been taken away by Guo Zhi in advance. If it were in the past, someone would have erupted, but there was just a scene, and I knew that I couldn't get cheap from Guo Zhi, so I could only hold it back, but I scolded people fiercely in my heart.

No matter what they thought, Guo Zhicai dropped the dishes and chopsticks and pulled the yellow wood back to his room with the children after eating, closed the door with a "snap" and pretended to take a nap, blocking all kinds of eyes from the hall.

The couple put the children to sleep before lying on the bed, and the yellow wood was so tired that he wanted to sleep as soon as he touched the pillow. Guo Zhi quickly woke people up and told her that her mother's family wanted to share half of her profits.

Guo Zhi didn't want to say it so early, worried that Huang Mutou would tell his mother-in-law. It wasn't until before the meal that she saw Huang Mutou protecting herself in every way that she let go of the sorrow in her heart and chose to be frank.

When I heard that there was a profit of forty taels of silver, I was so frightened that Huang Mu's napping ran away without a trace. He didn't question his wife's words at all, and kept shaking his head: "It's too much, too much, can't we ask for such a large sum of silver." ”

Guo Zhi rolled his eyes, poked Huang Mutou's forehead and gritted his teeth, "Are you a little out of shape?" My mother's family can give it, why don't you dare to take it? Do you want to live in this shabby house continuously, and when Baole grows up, marries his wife and children, and still lives with us? ”

Huang Mu listened to it and immediately stopped squeaking.

Guo Mianmian didn't expect him to say anything, and said his hope in one breath: "You have also seen that our family of five still lives in this home, and there is no time for stability in the family." I thought about it, when the forty taels of silver are in hand, I will ask your father and mother to divide our room, even if nothing is given to us, with these forty taels of silver, we will not be hungry and frozen when we go out. With your carpentry skills, I have my mother's family here to patronize, and sooner or later I can live my life, and I don't have to look at your parents' eyes anymore. ”

Hearing this, Huang Mutou finally reacted: "Separation? Do you really want to separate? ”

Guo Mianmian lost the man's eyes, suppressed his voice and said: "This family must score, and Mao should also score!" ”

Huang Mutou looked at his wife and son with a broken face, and then at his sleeping son, he was silent for a while, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "Points! When you get the money, you will divide it! ”

I can't wake up on weekends...... It's even later......

Two days later, Guo Zhi returned to Guo's house with a spring breeze. Inspired by forty taels of silver and separation, in the next few days, she worked harder, and her bad personality was much better, and she was a smile when she saw people.

Guo Mianmian and others thought that she had gone back to her mother-in-law's house and saw that the man and child were in a good mood, but they didn't think much about it. In addition, there are many miscellaneous things in the workshop and flower fields, and one person is eager to share dividends and two people, and no one has the heart to pay attention to the rest.

In an instant, it was the middle of Pu Zhong, and in this month, the Guo family was full of merits.

The first thing is that Guo Yushun took the government test in history, won the same ranking as the county test, and officially became a child. When he takes the college examination in August, he will be able to gain fame and fame in history and embark on the road of the imperial examination.

The second thing is that after nearly two months of rooting and development, the vast majority of countless flower seedlings in the Guo family's flower field have survived and all of them have grown branches, covering the yellow ground underneath. If this momentum continues, many green plants will be able to harvest the first flowers in the coming year.

The third thing is that the more than 15,000 catties of flower sauce that the Guo family spent a month and a half to build were all pulled away by Ben Xinzhai and exported to the surrounding counties and the capital city of Mingzhou. Guo's flower sauce became an instant hit, and without the Guo family's appearance, the orders for the coming year were sent to Benxinzhai one after another, and there was no worry about sales at all.

Now that summer is on, there are not many edible flowers blooming in the wild mountains, and there is no comparison with the amount of flower sauce that is built in spring.

No matter how small the mosquito is, it is also meat, the door of the Guo family's workshop is still open, and the villagers are taking care of the crops at the same time, once they are free, they will pick edible flowers on their backs and sell them to the Guo family.

In the matter of recycling the flowers of the villagers, the price given by the Guo family is really not short of catties or two, and many families have earned two or three taels of silver in more than a month, which is almost the income of the family for half a year.

The Guo family's popularity in Lijia Village is good, and after this incident, no one studies the rights and wrongs of the Guo family under the big tree at the head of the village.

In the past few days, Guo Mianmian has temporarily put the workshop in
