Tao Yougui led the baby to the river to net fish and shrimp, and when he came back, he heard about the quarrel between the Cao family and Yao's third daughter-in-law, and he didn't say a word.

The next day, Yao Laosan and his family went to the town to buy artillery and came back to put a circle along the village, and finally went to the door of the pomegranate house, which was regarded as a formal apology, and showed the villagers that they had slandered the pomegranate flower.

Tao Yougui came forward to contact the Yao family, and his generous statement was just a quarrel between the mothers-in-law, and the matter was over.

Yao Laosan was grateful, and chatted with Tao Yougui for a while before going back with his daughter-in-law.

When there is a quarrel between women, the man can only reconcile between them, which is the consensus of the people in the countryside.

Because of the two women, no matter how much they fight, it is nothing more than pulling their hair, tearing their clothes, and scratching their two paws, and nothing serious will happen; Once the man participates, the incident will escalate, and if he doesn't do it, he will be killed, and he will be shamed by his neighbors.

Yao Laosan was distressed about the money, and when he got home, he cleaned up his daughter-in-law again.

Yao's third daughter-in-law admitted her mistake on her lips, but in her heart she hated Cao's mother and daughter.

When Tao heard the sound of cannonballs, he called the pomegranate flower over to ask, only to realize that Cao's quarrel with someone yesterday was actually related to himself, and he was very helpless.

She was the only one in the village who didn't go to see the excitement yesterday, even Widow Zhang went, hiding in the crowd quietly, and then saw Li Zheng coming, so she quietly slipped back.

Speaking of the fact that there were still some people like Widow Zhang who left halfway yesterday, Pomegranate Hua remembered the figures of several of them, her heart moved, and she tried to ask: "Gu, the people in the village treated you like that back then, do you hate them?" ”

Dow was stunned for a moment, and asked rhetorically, "You kid, why did you suddenly remember to ask this?" ’

Pomegranate pouted, "I think those long-tongued women in the village who chew the root of their tongues behind their backs are too hateful!" ”

Tao smiled slightly and said: "The mouth grows on them, let them talk if they like to talk, and besides, the village is not all bad people, I can't hate the whole village." ”

The pomegranate asked which were the good guys and which were the bad guys.

Tao thought about it for a while, and replied: "There is one good person, if it weren't for his help, I wouldn't be able to do the title deed to build the yard, and there are people who came to help build the house, there are many of them, and it is troublesome to talk about them one by one, and then there are...... Your mother. ”

Pomegranate Hua was slightly surprised, but she heard Tao Shi say: "Your mother's temperament back then was very different from now, she never quarreled with others and didn't go to the root of her tongue to chew the root of her tongue." I just went back to the village when there was no place to live, so I built a shack on the land that built the yard, your mother saw that I was pitiful, and often came to talk to me, send some food, and I was too busy to build the yard, so I asked your mother to help me take care of Hengling. ”

"Then why didn't you come back and forth?" Pomegranate asked urgently.

Tao sighed slightly, "Your mother gave birth to two daughters in the first place, and she was gossiped about by many people, and then she gave birth to you as a girl, and those people with rotten tongues in the village said that your mother could not give birth to a son, and your father would become a dead end." When your father heard these words, he came back from drinking and made your mother angry, and your grandmother also blamed your mother. Your mother feels ashamed of the Tao family, and she is busy all day long, so how can she still work hard to visit the door. Sometimes I want to go to your mother, but I am afraid that your grandmother will give your mother a look, and over time, I can only remember the past in my heart. ”

When Pomegranate heard this, she felt deeply sorry for the old friendship between the two, and at the same time became more curious about why Cao's temperament changed.

Tao said indignantly: "Just because your mother didn't give birth to a son, the three of you sisters are often bullied by other children in the village. Later, your mother gave birth to Tianbao, and her waist was straight, and no one was afraid. ”

After listening to this, Pomegranate felt guilty that she didn't know enough about the Cao family, and she was a little sad when she was moved, the ignorant feudal ideology of the villagers had turned a gentle and obedient woman into a shrew.

Seeing the pomegranate flower's expression, Tao smiled and comforted: "Okay, okay, it's over." After your mother made such a fuss, no one would dare to make irresponsible remarks in the future. Let's open the door and live, and let those who don't see the good ones die of anger. ”

Pomegranate nodded, and told Tao about the sneaky appearance of Tao Shanlin's family when they were watching the excitement yesterday.

After hearing this, Tao said lightly: "The reason why I built the yard to the west of the village is that I don't want to meet that family again. After all these years, I don't believe they still have the face to entangle. ”

Taojia Village is not big, it is not small, seventy or eighty families live relatively scattered, from east to west, there are three miles of land, Tao Shanlin's family lives in the east of the village, and Tao rarely goes out, if it is not deliberate, the chance of the two families meeting is really slim.

People want faces, trees want bark.

Listening to Dow's words, the worries in Pomegranate Flower's heart disappeared a lot.

At the same time, in the Tianzi room of the Yuanxiang Inn in Huangni Town, the eldest prince Zhan looked at Yang Laosi in front of him without saying a word, and his handsome face was cold.

Yang Laosi bowed his head and didn't dare to breathe, let alone raise his eyes to look at the eldest prince of Zhan.

After the eldest prince Zhan returned to the city, he always felt uneasy, remembered the things on the oil mill construction site day and night, and after dealing with some trivial matters during the festival, he rushed to Huangni Town again.

Hearing that there was a problem with the house that Yang Laosi was responsible for building before, he immediately ordered someone to find Yang Laosi to come for questioning, and when he learned that the situation was true, the trust in Yang Laosi in his heart was greatly reduced, almost zero.

Yang Laosi is struggling at the moment, the amount of compensation from the owner of the accident is huge, he can't accept it, and he has already submitted the pleadings to the yamen.

If he loses his errand here, he Yang Lao Si will not want to turn over in the future, and he will only beg for food in the rest of his life.

After a long time, Zhan Dagongzi's expression gradually softened, and he said lightly: "That's it, there is only one way to make up for the dead sheep now, Yang Tou, you just have to deal with the things over there." At the oil mill site, I'll ask the girl from before to see if there's a safer way. ”

When Yang Laosi heard this, he saw hope in his heart. The eldest prince Zhan did not dissolve the cooperative relationship between the two parties at the moment, indicating that there was still a place to use himself, and he was busy grateful: "Thanks to the kindness of the prince, I will definitely do the next work well." ”

Grand Prince Zhan snorted coldly, and his tone was very stern: "If I hadn't come to Huangni Town for the first time, and the foreman would have only heard someone introduce you, Yang Laosi, I would have changed people to build the oil mill a long time ago." ”

Yang Laosi nodded busily and thanked him repeatedly.

Grand Prince Zhan didn't bother to look at him, and said to the cronies and servants standing beside him: "Go and inquire where that girl's family lives, and I will personally come to the door to invite you with a generous gift." ”

When the servant should come down, he will withdraw.

Seeing this, Yang Laosi hurriedly stopped him and took the opportunity to show himself: "Childe doesn't have to send someone to look for it, the young man who came with that girl is now working on the construction site, I'll go and ask him to find the girl." ”

When Zhan Gongzi heard this, his face finally became a little happy, he looked at Yang Laosi, and said lightly: "You finally did the right thing." ”

Yang Laosi was amnesty, and immediately went back to the construction site to find Jinbao.

Zhan Gongzi called out to him and said to his relatives: "Fang'er, you go with you to please, remember to be more polite, and be more sincere." ”

"Yes, Childe, I'll get things done." Fang Er took the order and retreated with Yang Laosi.

The two of them went straight to the construction site out of the inn, called Jinbao and went to the town to buy some gifts, and then rushed to Taojia Village.

Fang Er has been serving Gongzi since he was a child, although he is a subordinate, he can follow Gongzi in and out of all carriages and horses, how can he have walked such a long way with his feet, and complained before he reached the halfway.

Yang Laosi and Jinbao didn't dare to offend him, so they had to endure chatter and nagging all the way.

When he walked to the loess road leading to Taojia Village, Fang Er was bitter again.

It was raining for days, and the road surface was trampled to sparse pieces, and it was full of mud under my feet, and it was difficult to find a dry place to put my feet.

Entering the village with one foot deep and one foot shallow, Fang Er was even more disgusted, this is a house where people live, and the most inferior servants in the house live better than this.

Jinbao led Yang Laosi directly to Liuhua's house, and on the way, a villager saw Jinbao followed by two strangers, and asked: "Jinbao, which of your relatives is this?" Why haven't I seen it before? ”

Jinbao stopped and said with a smile: "It's not my family's relatives, they went to the pomegranate family." ”

The man was about to ask them what they were going to do at the pomegranate flower's house, but Fang Er was already urging impatiently behind him, "I said let's not delay, okay, my foot is going to be broken, hurry up and find a place for me to rest my legs!" ”

Jin Bao hurriedly smiled apologetically at the man, and led Yang Laosi and Fang Er to continue walking towards the pomegranate family.

Pomegranate happened to be at home, and when she saw Jinbao and Yang Laosi coming with another person who was a little familiar, she was a little surprised at first, but she quickly thought of something.

When Yang Laosi saw the pomegranate flower, his face was extremely embarrassed.

Pomegranate smiled slightly, and invited the three of them into the hall to sit.

There were guests at home, and they were all male guests, and of course Tao Yougui came forward to greet them.

Tao Yougui couldn't figure out where the two people came from, and he didn't look like a poor family when he saw the clothes, so he politely invited the two to sit down.

Fang Er was so tired that he didn't care about dislike at the moment, so he chose a wooden stool that looked cleaner and sat down.

Cao Shi also saw that the two were not ordinary people, and when they went to boil water, they called Jinbao outside the house to ask, and when they learned that they were going to call Pomegranate to help with things on the oil mill construction site, they exclaimed: "What? The construction site is full of men moving and lifting, what can she do with a girl? You don't come to coax the old lady! ”

Jinbao had a sad face, not knowing how to explain.

Fang Er heard Cao's voice in the house, and came out and said, "This lady, we didn't call your girl to do those heavy jobs, but just let her help see how the foundation should be dug." ”

Cao Shi didn't believe that the pomegranate flower knew how to dig the foundation, and said sincerely: "Young man, my daughter grew up under my nose, what will she do, I am a mother very clearly, she has not even seen the house built twice, where will you know how to dig the foundation, you must have found the wrong person." ”

Fang Er glanced at the Cao clan with disdain, and said angrily at Jin Baonu: "Is it not, you ask him." Then he turned around and went into the house.

Cao looked at Jinbao suspiciously.

Jinbao nodded.

Cao was even more puzzled.

How can Pomegranate know how to dig a foundation?
