Chapter 8: Good Things

That Cheng Shimei is also a fortune teller, and he was not harmed by the bandits.

After two days, he finally found Fengming Town, and there was a lot of trouble outside the gate of the ancient family.

He was wearing a green coat, still dressed as a scholar, and he looked polite, which made people feel very good.

On the surface, Gu Xiaobawang really didn't do anything good, so the people of Fengming Town agreed with Cheng Shimei's accusation of Gu Xiaobawang.

The people of the entire Fengming Town are almost crowded outside the gate of the ancient house to watch the excitement, and by the way, take a look at the beautiful scenery.

The picturesque scenery of the ancient mansion of Fengming Town, which is very famous in the whole Liuli country, has attracted many literati and ink writers to write inscriptions and poems.

The vermilion lacquer gate has to be repainted every three months, and it is always new in all seasons.

In order to make it convenient for the literati to compose poems, Gu Qingfeng made people erect several beautiful mountain stones outside the courtyard wall of the ancient mansion, on which many famous poems have been inscribed.

A few early-blooming cherry blossoms next to the gate of the ancient house attracted everyone's attention.

The pink cherry blossoms decorate the ancient mansion into a beautiful landscape.

A gust of wind blew, and the pink flowers swirled in the air and fell lightly, dyeing the ground pink.

The ancient mansion covers a large area, and there are cherry trees planted everywhere outside the gate, at least a few hundred.

Just because Gu Yue'er was six years old, she said in front of her father Gu Qingfeng that she liked to see cherry blossoms, so Gu Qingfeng asked people to find many excellent varieties of cherry blossom trees to plant.

Every year when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom outside the ancient mansion, Fengming Town is full of tourists.

People who have spare time to see the beautiful scenery are basically rich people, and they are generally not soft on all kinds of buying.

So when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom, the people of Fengming Town set up a stall on the street, and they can always earn a lot of silver money to subsidize their families.

It was very lively outside the gate, but it was very quiet inside the ancient mansion.

Gu Yue'er was dressed up beautifully today, and was sitting in her mother's Huiqing courtyard eating snacks, when the big girl Axi ran over.

After Ah Xi came in, he stopped his feet, looked at Mrs. Gu, and stopped talking.

Gu Yue'er knew that Ah Xi was very well-behaved on weekdays, so running like this should be urgent.

"Axi, tell me quickly, what's wrong?"

Gu Yue'er stood up from the table, a snow-white long dress shining silver in the sun, only because the lotus flower on the skirt was embroidered with silver thread, so it had such an effect.

"Miss, that Chengshi has a great life, and finally found outside the gate of our ancient mansion, where the master is reasoning with him."

When Feng Ruhui heard the words Cheng Shimei, she knew in her heart that it was her daughter's fiancé, but because she didn't know what happened, she was very anxious, so she hurriedly took her daughter's hand and walked outside Huiqing Courtyard.

Gu Yue'er stepped forward and gently grabbed Feng Ruhui, "Mother, Huiqing Courtyard is a little far away from the gate, you should go in a sedan chair!" ”

The maids of Huiqing Courtyard were very clever, and after a while, they called the sedan chair man.

Gu Yue'er helped Feng Ruhui into the sedan chair and comforted: "Mother, it's okay, don't worry." ”

After the sedan chair was carried away, Gu Yue'er took Ah Xi to walk the path together, and arrived at the gate in a few leaps.

The gate was not wide open, leaving only a wide slit for one person to pass through.

Looking at the wealth and auspiciousness of the gate, he came over and bent down to salute Gu Yue'er, "Say hello to Miss!" Miss auspicious. ”

Gu Yue'er listened attentively for a moment, and said to Fugui: "Go and call my father in to moisten his throat." ”

Fugui is strong, and she can't get out of the crack in the door that is so wide that she can only shout outside: "Master, drink tea." ”

Fugui is not only magnificent in stature, but also has a loud voice.

Although it was very noisy outside, Gu Qingfeng still heard Fugui's words clearly.

After Gu Qingfeng came in, his anger did not subside.

Ah Xi took the tea tray from the little maid's hand and held it to Gu Yue'er's side.

Gu Yue'er personally picked up the small teapot and poured a seven-point full cup of tea, and handed the gold-trimmed teacup to Gu Qingfeng, "Dad, drink tea." ”

Gu Qingfeng took a sip, then spit it out, his face full of anger.

"That broken scholar took 10,000 taels of silver tickets from me just for the fat shortage of Jiaxing County, and now that he is about to take office, he ran to our house to withdraw his relatives."

Gu Yue'er prompted: "Dad, my mother is about to arrive in a sedan chair." ”

As soon as the words fell, the palanquin driver had already appeared on the stone path not far away.

Gu Qingfeng's frowning brows immediately loosened, replaced him with a smiling face, and walked over and gently lifted the sedan curtain.

"Madame, why are you here?"

Feng Ruhui stretched out her hand, which was as beautiful as green and white, put it on Gu Qingfeng's hand, got off the sedan chair with Gu Qingfeng's support, and asked anxiously after standing still:

"Xianggong, I heard that Cheng Shimei is here?"

"Madame don't have to worry, it's a trivial matter."

After Gu Qingfeng finished speaking, he heard Cheng Shimei loudly counting Gu Yue'er's misconduct outside, and he was immediately angry again.

"I'm going out right now to kill that broken scholar who doesn't know whether to live or die."

Gu Qingfeng wanted to rush out, but was stopped by Feng Ruhui.

"Xianggong—"

"Dad, this is a good thing, think about it, if he doesn't show his true face until I marry him, will we lose a lot?"

Gu Yue'er's beautiful little face didn't see a trace of unhappiness, but showed a little happiness.

Her words were very convincing, and after Gu Qingfeng and Feng Ruhui heard it, their originally ugly faces immediately relaxed.

It does make sense to think about it, if you don't quit your family, it would be a great misfortune to marry such a hypocrite.

Feng Ruhui was guided by her daughter's words like this, and felt that she was so lucky to have seen through the true face of Chengshimei so early, and she had to polish her eyes to find a peerless good husband for her daughter in the future.

With a soft smile on her face, she stood beside Gu Qingfeng and persuaded softly:

"That's right! This is a good thing, Xianggong, you go out and take back the marriage letter and tokens, and let's set a good family for Yue'er again. ”

Gu Qingfeng walked out of the gate, and quickly turned around and took back the marriage book and tokens.

"That broken scholar is full of benevolence and morality, and he used up so much money from our ancient family, but never mentioned the matter of paying back the money, in fact, he is a sanctimonious hypocrite."

Feng Ruhui took out a handkerchief to help Gu Qingfeng wipe the sweat on his forehead, and persuaded: "Xianggong, forget it, our family's money can't be spent anyway, so it's better to keep it for him to buy a coffin." ”

Gu Yue'er was happy, her mother Feng Ruhui is a person who believes in Buddhism, and she never speaks seriously, but today she even cursed Cheng Shimei to buy a coffin with money, and it seems that she is also very angry.

At this time, there was a lot of noise outside, and it was still very lively.

Gu Yue'er's ears are very good, she heard that Cheng Shimei was still counting her outside, and she glanced at wealth and auspiciousness.

Fugui and auspicious opened the door wider, walked out, erected Chengshimei, and threw it a few feet away.

It's really a coincidence that the book is not written, and the peerless scumbag Cheng Shimei just landed on the car carrying the dung, which caused the onlookers to burst into laughter.

With such a stinky car, naturally no one ran over to save him.

It took Cheng Shimei a long time to climb out of the dung truck, covered in black and yellow, and the smell was stinking.

The people covered their noses and jumped away.

The farmer who pushed the cart was very distressed about the manure that he had accumulated for a long time, and shouted to Cheng Shimei: "You pay for my manure, you pay for my manure." ”

The maids crowded through the crack of the door and looked out, all of them covered their mouths and snickered, they were very happy, they really didn't expect that retribution would come so quickly, and people with dirty mouths like Cheng Shimei deserve to eat.
