Chapter 34 Niang Fawei
Xiao Cai's naturally didn't answer this talk.
"If you tell me that this is useless, just make it clear how the money came from! Borrowed from your mother's house? How did I not know that your mother's family still has this money! ”
Wang's eyes were also red, and he even ignored the milk doll he was holding in his arms, and shouted at the top of his voice:
"That's right! You didn't even have good clothes when you got married, and now you can borrow money to rent a house in the town?! Who are you fooling! ”
"I have to tell you if my mother's family has any money? Which green onion are you? ”
The Zhou family does not show weakness at all, because of her seniority, she can't scare Xiao Cai's family, and she has nothing to fear of the Wang family!
"Mother."
Xu Zhaonan grabbed the arguing Zhou, and then took out the IOU from his arms and raised it to Xiao Cai, "The IOU is all written, and the handprint is pressed, whether you believe it or not, this money is borrowed in black and white." ”
The Xu family has not stopped in the past few months, and such a big movement naturally surrounded many villagers.
At this time, there are whispers, and most people still think that since they have an IOU, then eighty percent of the money is borrowed.
As for whether to return it, that's another matter.
Of course, Xiao Cai's people didn't want to admit it, Xu Erlang blocked the door and seemed to confront Da Lang, and the women in the courtyard were still arguing with you and me.
Xu Zhaonan wanted not to leave a handle, after all, she didn't leave the village completely, so she let her father and mother play.
But after waiting for a long time, there was still no sign of being able to leave, and she became a little impatient.
Looking down at her sister in her arms, Mianmian was also yawning boredly.
Tsk, forget it, let's do it yourself!
As soon as Xu Zhaonan thought like this, he heard Xu Houhai's voice.
"What is this for? Big brother, what are you? ”
How did he get back?
Xu Zhaonan's heart moved, and he turned to look at this uncle.
Xu Houhai was wearing a green shirt, his usual literati posture, and at this time he was twisting his eyebrows, looking at the two brothers, with some helplessness and exhaustion in his expression.
Some villagers on the side explained it gossipingly, and they didn't forget to comfort him at the end.
"San Lang, you, it's important to study in the academy with peace of mind, and you can worry less about things at home."
When Xu Zhaonan heard this, he couldn't help but sneer in his heart.
She had hinted in front of the women that this young uncle was not of good character, and of course there were believers, but on the surface, no one would say more.
If you can't grasp the other party's real handle, then you can only go away first.
Xu Zhaonan turned a few thoughts, and Xu Houhai had already persuaded the villagers to enter the hospital.
"Let's go into the house, I have something important to say."
He waved at Xiao Cai's and the others, and then turned his head to look at Xu Dalang and Zhou, "Big brother and sister-in-law, don't be in a hurry at this time, we are a family after all." ”
Xu Dalang moved his lips, his face was a little embarrassed, and he looked at Zhou and his daughter.
"Let's go."
Xu Zhaonan moved first with her sister in her arms, there was no need to embarrass her father, she also wanted to hear what Xu Houhai had to say.
Xu Jingshu, who had not come out of the room all along, also went to the hall together.
Naturally, Xiao Cai's sat on the main seat, and Erlang Sanlang sat on the right side of Xiao Cai's.
The four people in the big room were on the left, pulled out the stools, and all sat down.
Now everyone knows the situation of the Xu family, and when there are no outsiders, even Xu Houhai doesn't say much, and he goes straight to the point.
"I'm going to talk about Zhao Nan's marriage. Originally, my classmate was very similar in all aspects except for his age, but a few days ago he had bad luck and caused a lot of rumors, so in order not to delay his niece, he personally told me that the marriage was over. ”
This is also a good thing to say, but the big house knows the inside story. Xu Zhaonan's face didn't change, but her father and mother sank their faces.
As if he hadn't seen it, Xu Houhai continued:
"Naturally, Zheng Xiucai can't be blamed for this matter, but Zhao Nan is a daughter's family, and it is inevitable that she will suffer losses in marriage, so in order to avoid more speculation from outsiders, I should take Zhao Nan to see each other on the day of the meeting."
Zhou stood up suddenly, his voice was like ice, "Third brother, I'm afraid I have forgotten, your eldest brother and I are still alive, why do you have to bother with Zhao Nan's marriage?" ”
Zheng Xiucai's reputation is now stinky, he came to the Xu family to see Xu Zhaonan before, and Xiao Cai's family has made a big announcement, although the marriage did not work out in the end, but there are many people in the village who say unpleasant things behind their backs.
Zhou's hated Xu Houhai's itchy teeth, because his daughter didn't suffer a loss, so he endured his anger in his heart, how could he have thought that he would continue to use Xu Zhaonan's brain.
Xu Dalang was a step late, but he also stood up, and his face was ugly and agreed.
"Zhao Nan's marriage, I can rest assured with her mother, and the third brother doesn't have to worry about it."
"Yo! Just your daughter's gold! How capable! Shame on the face! ”
Xiao Cai's squinted and scolded, the youngest son is her treasure, and half a bad sentence can't be said by others.
"Who are you going to show me?"
Xu Zhaonan had already raised his hand to cover his sister's ear, so as not to let her hear dirty words. At this time, he raised his arm again and bumped her mother, motioning for her to sit down first.
"It's not too early, we still have to go to the town to settle, let the uncle finish talking first."
"You're good-tempered!"
Zhou was unwilling, glared at his daughter, and then sat down sideways.
Xu Jingshu suddenly laughed at this time, "Sister, it's a very good family." ”
"Well, it's excellent."
Xu Houhai nodded, looking directly at Xu Zhaonan, "The concubine of the Zheng Governor's Mansion." ”
Zhou picked up the kettle on the table and smashed it towards Xu Houhai.
No one expected her to suddenly attack, Xu Houhai dodged for a while, but he was still hit in the shoulder by the pot, and immediately fell from the stool and lay on the ground.
This change came too suddenly, Xu Zhaonan reacted, but there was still a sister in his arms, seeing that her mother was jumping up and about to pounce over, she hurriedly stuffed her sister into Xu Dalang's arms, and she hugged Zhou's waist.
"You bastard! I thought my mother was a bully! You don't inquire, the name of the old lady when she was young! My daughter is also something you can spoil me?! If you don't fight, go back to your mother's womb, and I won't be surnamed Zhou! ”
Zhou was really angry, and the series of scolding in his mouth did not stop at all.
Xu Zhaonan was so surprised that she almost didn't hold her mother when she slipped in her hand.
The root of the original owner's temper can be regarded as being found, and the feelings are inherited from the Zhou family.
Xu Houhai was embarrassed at this time, where had he ever suffered such a loss, let alone seen the appearance of the Zhou family. Not to mention him, Xiao Cai and the others have never seen him. Even if the Zhou family broke up before, it was at most noisy, and he didn't dare to be too loud.
The only one in the room who could be considered calm was Xu Dalang, of course he was startled, but he quickly calmed down, after all, he had seen Zhou when he was young......
At this time, he could even calmly come to Zhou's side and persuade in a low voice.
"The child is her mother, we are both here, but it's not too angry, it's scared of the baby."
This is not unusual, but Zhou just watched to calm down her anger, she took a few deep breaths, and her eyes were still vicious.
"I told you Xu Houhai, I want to connect people and find your brother's daughter, my family, it's not your turn! If you want to cross the line again, I will make trouble in your academy, I want to see, this reputation of sending your niece out as a concubine, you can't stand it! Bah! ”
After she finished her cruel words, she hugged the cotton cotton in Xu Dalang's arms and pulled Xu Zhaonan again.
"Let's go!"
Dafang's family had been gone for a while, and Xu Houhai and the others came back to their senses.
Xiao Cai's tears fell, and he began to cry as soon as he sat next to his youngest son, "Oh, what kind of sin have I done, why do you have such a loser!" ”
There are no outsiders at this time, and Xiao Cai's crying has no effect except annoyance.
The milk doll in Wang's arms was woken up, and she also cried with Wow, and the house was noisy for a while.
Xu Erlang has always used his physique to support a scene, and he didn't say a word just yet, and at this time, he still had all his beards and tails, so he hugged his brother and his mother, and finally got his daughter-in-law to help coax the child.
Xu Jingshu sat close to Xu Sanlang, and a lot of tea was also splashed, and she was frightened by Zhou's power, and stood aside with a pale face.
After another half an hour, everyone finally came to their senses.
Xiao Cai wiped two handfuls of snot, "What can I do, if she doesn't go, will she ask Jing'er to go?" ”
"I'm not going!"
Xu Jingshu's face turned white again as soon as she recovered some blood, "Just like Xu Zhaonan, being a concubine for the prefect has been a blessing for her for several lifetimes!" And with my appearance, where is a prefect worthy of it? ”
She has said this countless times, and it was used to persuade Xiao Cai and her father, but looking at Xu Houhai's gaze, she couldn't just say this.
“…… Uncle, believe me, I really have ...... Damn! ”
The word that was skipped, no one else noticed, but Xu Houhai knew it. His eyes flickered twice, and finally he looked away and looked at Xiao Cai.
"The day after tomorrow is the Wenhui, my mother worked hard to come to the town to find me."
With just a few threats from the Zhou family, Xu Houhai will give up pushing Xu Zhaonan to be a concubine in Zheng Governor's Mansion?
This is of course impossible.
He was worried about the quota of the Guozijian, and perhaps also about the exam questions in the autumn season, and it was necessary to curry favor with Governor Zheng.
Silver to give, beautiful women to give, where do these come from? Isn't it the two nieces who are ready-made, the family's farm property, and Xu Zhaonan's good things in the town.
From Guan Jin, Xu Zhaonan learned more news than his own father. Although the candidate for this concubine has become herself, she is not too worried.
Governor Zheng may not be able to jump for a long time, what good can you leave behind if you have a bad heart? !
It's just that I can't say this to Xu Dalang and Zhou, Guan Jin's side still needs to start arranging, and the news can't be leaked.
Therefore, Xu Zhaonan can only repeatedly persuade and comfort his parents, but fortunately, he has just moved and has a lot of work, and this person is busy in front of him, and he can't take care of other things.
On April 16, the day of the cultural meeting, the town was lively early.
To say that in previous years, the Zhou family also loved to join in this excitement, but this time, even Xu Zhaonan stopped at home, not wanting to ask her to go out.
"Who knows what Xu Houhai will do, you will accompany your mother today, just right, your mother will teach you to embroider a pattern."
