Chapter 305: The second watch continues the big fat chapter

In ancient times, emperors were called the Son of Heaven, so no one could pass the emperor. Emperor Jingming doesn't reward it, since he has something to reward Miaomiao, everyone else, including the Queen Mother, has to wait for him.

Although Emperor Jingming rewarded him with a plaque, he still had to laugh after writing. But after all, it was the emperor himself who ordered it, and the palace was busy up and down, and in less than two days, the exquisite plaque was ready. These wills and an astonishing number of rewards will be upon the move.

In the palace, of course, everything is a post station. As I said before, the ancient post station was the official logistics, which was actually very fast. You can send not only letters, but also things.

Riding the red dust concubine laughed, everyone has heard it. Ancient logistics wanted to be fast, and it was really fast. The queen mother and queen have made a decree, as well as the rewards of the concubines and concubines in the palace, and the most important thing is that the emperor also gave a plaque.

It didn't take two days to arrive, but it was still due to the eunuchs sent by the palace. Even if the eunuchs have been taken into account, they have slowed down as much as possible.

In less than four days, the will and reward had arrived in Qingfeng County.

When the messenger arrived, Miaomiao and Gu Nianyuan were arguing with the best relatives in Daliushu Village.

Although Gu Nianyuan will go to the township test for a few days, that is, the person test. The lifting test is different from the county test, which is generally held once every three years, generally in autumn and August.

This year, I just caught up with the lifting test, the county test and the township test, and some of them were not confident in themselves, and they would not take the test for the time being out of prudent considerations.

But Gu Nianyuan is still quite confident in himself, so he plans to continue to take the exam. He has self-confidence, and his county exam results are so good, of course Qingniang and Miaomiao will not stop him.

But before that, Qing Niang still plans to worship her ancestors first. She wanted to tell Gu's father about the good news of Gu Nianyuan's talent in the exam, and also to the ancestors of the Gu family.

Although Gu Nianyuan was not Gu's father's biological child, when Gu's father was one year old, he took him to see the ancestors and ancestors, and also asked Gu Nianyuan to be written into the Gu family's genealogy.

Every year in the future, Gu's father took Gu Nianyuan to worship his ancestors. Gu's father is gone, and the Gu family's generation burns paper and lights incense during the New Year's holidays, and it also depends on Gu Nianyuan. And the secret of Gu Nianyuan's life experience, Qing Niang plans not to say it for the rest of her life, so Gu Nianyuan's Zhongxiu is such a big thing, it must be sacrificed to the ancestors.

Most of the people in Daliushu Village are surnamed Gu, and they are all of the same clan. Gu's father is also a member of the Gu clan, and although he has no relatives on weekdays, he actually has relatives.

These things are actually a bit dirty to say, Gu Nianyuan's adoptive father is called Gu Laoer. It's not a nickname, it's called this name, and the countrymen don't pay much attention to their names.

Everyone can also see that there is a second child, and there is a boss. Gu Lao Er was a posthumous child, and his mother also had a difficult birth when she gave birth to him. Fortunately, his eldest brother Gu was seventeen years old at that time, and Gu Lao Er lived with his brother.

The elder brother was good at first, but his daughter-in-law was not kind and generous. She was disgusted with this little uncle who ate her own idle food, and felt that he had taken advantage of her.

She didn't want to think that if her parents were alive, they would have to split up. The things like this in his family now are all owned by Gu Er. Especially after the sister-in-law had her own child, she hated Gu Lao Er even more.

Gu Lao started doing housework when he was two or three years old, and his brother was very good to him at first, but when his son was born, Gu's sister-in-law often blew the pillow wind. Slowly, Gu Boss also felt that his younger brother was a drag.

Gu Lao Er has had to do a lot of work since he was a child, and he has never had enough. In this way, Sister-in-law Gu became more and more intolerant of him.

Finally, when Gu Lao was ten years old, the harvest that year was not good, and Gu Lao, under the persuasion of his wife, threw Gu Lao Er into the mountains.

The reason why Gu Boss didn't sell Gu Lao Er or give it away was because he was afraid that his reputation would be damaged. Although there are children in the countryside, they are all families who can't get by. The Gu family is actually in good condition and has quite a lot of savings.

Even if the harvest is not good, the Gu family is not without surplus food. They all live in a village, and who doesn't know whom. Everyone also knows the conditions of the Gu family. There is food and drink, and there is still a lot of land at home, so they can't accommodate their biological brother.

Speaking of which, the people in the village have to poke the backbone of Boss Gu and his wife. Boss Gu is a face-saving person again, to put it bluntly, he is a biao, and he has to make an archway. They actually planned to send Gu Lao Er to the mountains, but when the time came, they said that he ran away blindly and was accidentally eaten by a wolf.

Both of them have dark hearts, and for the sake of their reputation, they want to harm such a small life. At that time, the mountains were not like modern times, not to mention wolves, even tigers.

Even if he is lucky enough not to touch those things, a ten-year-old child will not survive in the mountains. But this Gu Lao Er also deserved to die, he was saved by an Orion.

The Orion was also ill-fated, and when he was a teenager, he was taken to the mountains by his stepmother and ran into a leopard. He's also a great one, and he actually killed a leopard.

But most of his face was bitten off by the leopard, and it was frighteningly tight. Even if he later made a lot of money from hunting, no one wanted to marry him.

He lived alone in the mountains, and he happened to meet Gu Laoer. Orion is not a man who will not be saved when he sees death, a half-old child, of course he took Gu Lao Er home.

Asking about Gu Laoer's situation, Orion was very complicated. The children of poor families are in charge of the house early, especially a pitiful little like Gu Laoer. He had already understood his brother's intentions and did not want to go home again.

Orion has some sympathy for Gu Lao Er, and he himself is lonely, so he wants to adopt Gu Lao Er. Gu Lao Er agreed, but Gu Lao's matter still needs to be resolved.

Boss Gu is so ruthless, if he wants Gu Er's life, he will not be merciful. Gu Lao Er, accompanied by Orion, went to the clan and the elders to tell Gu Lao that he wanted to kill him.

Although the country people are often a little dirty, there are really no people who dare to kill people like this. Moreover, Boss Gu is still mad and wants to kill his own brother, but the people in the clan can't tolerate it.

The power of the ancient clan was still very large, especially in a small place like the countryside. Boss Gu wanted to kill someone, but because it didn't work out, the clan wanted to beat Boss Gu with eighty sticks at that time.

If these eighty sticks go down, people will be wasted if they don't die. If the elders of the Gu family can't bear it, they come out to be peacemakers. Let Gu Lao Er forgive Gu Boss and let Gu Boss accompany some things.

Gu Lao Er agreed, Gu Lao Da wanted to kill his younger brother, which was outrageous. But if his younger brother is really ruthless and cares about the death of the boss, he will also be said.

It's better to ask for something as a guarantee, and in the end, Gu Lao Er asked Gu Lao for everyone, two-thirds of the silver money, and half of the land.

The Gu family still has a house, but he doesn't want it. If it is a serious separation, it will be less than that. Gu Lao Er is like this, everyone says that he is kind.

Gu Lao and his family didn't think so, they never thought that they would give Gu Lao Er a single thing. Isn't it like cutting their flesh when they give so many things at once?

Boss Gu and his wife were unwilling, but the people in the clan did not give them face. There is Gu Er, who knows the general comparison so much at a young age. Boss Gu's family is not only inhumane, but also greedy.

The Li people of the clan let Gu Lao elect, and the eighty sticks were still the compensation that Gu Lao Er said. What can Mr. and Mrs. Gu do? Only compensation can be selected.

But they are holding on to the idea that they will come back in the future. But who knew that Gu Lao Er was going to be adopted by Orion, and Gu Lao and his wife would definitely not be willing.

But they have no right to speak, and they have a bad history first, and the people in the clan are afraid that he will be unfavorable to Gu Lao Er again. agreed to Orion's adoption, Gu Lao Er is very good at doing things.

He knew that he was young, and that the hunters would not be able to farm if they wanted to hunt. He directly leased his land to a respected family in the clan. not only avoided Boss Gu from finding trouble, but also sold those favors.

When Gu Lao Er grew up and inherited Orion's peerless learning, Gu Lao Er always didn't give up on those lands, so Gu Lao Er simply sold the land to the clansmen. They make a lot of money from hunting, and they are not free at all.

Orion hates his stepmother, and he hates his biological father even more. He also didn't let Gu Lao Er change his surname, and Gu Lao Er was still in his biological father's genealogy.

Gu Boss is sorry for Gu Er, but Gu Er's biological parents are not sorry for him. Especially his mother, who lost her life for him. It's okay for Gu Lao Er to not recognize his brother, but if he doesn't even recognize his parents, he shouldn't.

However, the biological parents are dead, and there is no need to support the old and filial piety. It is enough to worship during the New Year's Festival, and it is enough to burn some paper money during the Qingming Festival.

Orion is not the kind of cautious eye, so the Gu family worships not only the ancestors, but also the biological parents of Gu Laoer.

However, although Gu Lao Er remembers his kindness, he is also extremely filial to his adoptive father. is also because although Orion doesn't like to talk, he is also good at Gu Lao Er.

These two poor people can be regarded as warming each other, and it is precisely because of Orion that Gu Lao Er will receive Gu Nianyuan without any guilt, but treat him as his own.

Orion and his biological parents worship the same, but Orion has severed ties with all his relatives. But the ancestors of the Gu family are still in the ancestral hall of the Gu family.

Therefore, if Qingniang wants to take Gu Nianyuan to worship her ancestors, it is inevitable that she will go to the Gu family ancestral hall. Qing Niang herself wanted to keep a low profile, but Gu Patriarch and the old people in the clan were unwilling.

Although Gu Nianyuan is just a small talent, he is already the first among the Gu clan. In any village or clan in the countryside, there is a talent who is already majestic.

In front of others, there will also be more confidence. For example, every village. When grabbing water, it can also overpower others.

Therefore, the meaning of the clan is more than half, and let the people of ten miles and eight villages take a look. There is a talent in this clan, and it is not for idlers to bully.

This is also a good thing, Qingniang did not refuse directly, but only asked Gu Nianyuan.

Gu Nianyuan thought about it for a while and agreed. The people in the clan are not bad to their own family, and they have also helped in their memories in their previous lives, although they have contributed little, but they have also done so.

It doesn't take much to leave and right, and Gu Nianyuan is also willing to let the clansmen borrow light from him. The elders of the clan are very sober, and they are not insatiable. Gu Nianyuan was willing to borrow the name, so he was very satisfied.

Ancestor worship does not mean that the ancestor is worshiped immediately, but also to choose a suitable date. Fortunately, the nearest auspicious day of the zodiac is within a few days, because Gu Nianyuan still has to go to the exam, so the clansmen can't care about the urgency of time, so they set the nearest date.

The people of the clan hurriedly prepared the things for ancestor worship, and soon it was the day of ancestor worship. The Gu family hadn't arrived yet, and the people who went to decorate the ancestral hall in advance had already chatted.

"This young lady can be regarded as having survived, his son has now become a talented master, and what is the first name, she will live a good life in the future." A woman who was finishing the final cleaning of the ancestral hall said to the woman who was setting things aside.

The woman who placed the things nodded approvingly, and while answering, her hands did not stop.

"But isn't it, if you want me to say that in this life, there is really no fixed number, ten years in Hedong, ten years in Hexi. When the young lady was a girl, how sad her life was, she was five big and three thick, but she was a gassing bag that hit ten times and didn't produce a fart. ”

"It was not until she got married at twenty, and after she finally got married, the man treated her well, and left so early, leaving behind their orphans and widows. At that time, everyone said that her family must be finished. ”

"If there is no man to make money, he will definitely not be able to afford to send his children to school. Not to mention that the son has never worked in the field when he is so old, and most importantly, there is no land at home. There is also a daughter who is ignorant and spends money indiscriminately, and everyone says that she can't live long after a while. ”。

"But who knew that Brother Yuan'er actually passed the Xiucai exam a few days back then, and she was so powerful, her family turned over in one fell swoop."

The other woman nodded, and suddenly something came to mind.

"By the way, is Qingniang and her daughter still so ignorant? I also have a nephew in my mother's family, and if I grow up and be sensible, I will let my sister-in-law go to say goodbye after a while. ”

"Whew!" The woman who laid the things looked disdainful and spat out the cleaning woman.

"Why is your face so big? Who doesn't know who in Mi Niang's family, the poor can't open the pot, and they still want to marry Xiucaigong's sister? ”

The woman who cleaned was bluntly said by others, and she couldn't hold her face, but she still said stiffly: "What's wrong with being poor, my nephew has good conditions, and he is handsome and willing to do it." What is the sister of Xiucaigong, I don't think it's good, but I'm a loser and ignorant. If she doesn't have a good brother, my sister-in-law shouldn't look down on her. ”

The woman who put things on the table didn't even want to deal with the self-righteous fool in front of her. But she couldn't stand the other party's ignorance, and suppressed her temper and explained to her.

"The girl is not like before for a long time, she was not sensible before, she was young, and her family was willing to spoil her, and she loved to spend money because her father was in the past, and she could earn money at home. I am also willing to get used to my daughter. It didn't cost you any money, what do you talk about. ”

The woman couldn't help but sigh, and continued.

"But as soon as the girl's father died, the conditions in the family deteriorated, and the people immediately became sensible. Not only is it not as willful as it used to be, but it also makes a lot of money. My man always goes to the county to set up a stall, and I have seen her many times. Every time I come back, I have a big bag and a small bag, and I buy things for the young lady, and I am very filial. ”

"And the girl has grown up, and is not as indifferent as she used to be. Third aunt, you don't know. She is kind, she smiles every time she sees me, and she is very particular about it, and she is polite when she speaks, what is it, "Aunt Gu, please first, you sit here or something." ”

Aunt Gu had a very good impression of Miaomiao, and couldn't stop praising her.

Gu Sangu was a little skeptical of Gu Wugui's words: "It's really fake, you won't be lying to me, right?" I saw her last winter after her father died. It's still that annoying, despising people's virtues, and ignoring me when they see me. Did you recognize the wrong person? ”

The more Gu Sangu spoke, the more disbelieving she became: "And what you said, making a lot of money is too fake." She is a little girl who is less than sixteen years old, how can she make so much money. ”

Aunt Gu was very angry, "Third aunt, what do you mean by this, I can still break it blindly." That girl is very tight, and her skills are good and capable. The granddaughter of the patriarch's family before, do you remember the soap you bought? ”

"Why don't you remember? Just that little thing, it actually costs a few taels, and I heard that it is still the cheapest. "Gu Sangu has always been stingy, and she doesn't understand that someone spends so much money to buy such a thing.

That's right, because of the shortage of supply and the rise in raw material costs, the soap has risen to one or two. That's it, I can't buy it yet. Therefore, the ancient version of the scalper was derived, relying on the resale of soap hygiene.

People also snatched and sold it based on their ability, and the amount was not large, and Miaomiao couldn't manage it. The patriarch's granddaughter was bought from another hand, so it was so expensive.

"That soap was made by the Gu girl, and they also opened a shop in the town, and they made a lot of money." Aunt Gu's expression was a little proud, looking at Aunt Gu, you should believe it now.

"It turned out to be the shop she opened, and the expensive stuff she bought was surprisingly expensive, my mother!" Gu Sangu was surprised, and counted with her fingers.

"One piece sells for two taels, ten pieces are two, four ,..."

Aunt Gu didn't know how to count, but she could also feel that it was a large amount. "This girl can really make money, it's really black-hearted, a piece of soap makes so much money."

Aunt Gu didn't want to listen: "Third aunt, how can you talk." How black-hearted are the girls who honestly sell things, they are all clearly priced, and if they don't like to buy, they won't buy it, and no one will force it. And the raw materials don't cost money, the guys don't spend money, it's all for nothing. ”

"It's too much for you to say that a little girl has a black heart so much."

"I..." Gu Sangu stiffened her neck, and before she could retort, she was interrupted by another person's mean voice.

"Isn't that a black heart! Earn so much money, and don't know how to be filial to your elders and help your relatives. Like her father, they are all cold-hearted and cold-hearted, and they don't have any relatives at all. ”

Aunt Gu's expression was very ugly when she heard this, she frowned, turned her head to look at the person who came, and retorted unceremoniously.

"Damn, what are you talking about? People make their own money. Also, relatives, it's your family. Your family is embarrassed to say this, what kind of relatives are relatives who haven't moved around for so many years. ”

"What's more, what happened back then, did your father-in-law think that no one remembered, people who are a little older in our village, who don't know the immoral things your family did!"
