Chapter 185: Family Law
Immediately decided, Zhou stood up decisively, "I am willing to receive the family law, I want to come back with integrity, I don't want Tianlong and they will be scolded in the future for being the little sister raised by the little mother, I am right, I have made such a mistake before, if my mother can agree to let me come back, I should be grateful, I should not think about other family laws, I will take it, but can I delay for a few days, wait for me to raise a little better, otherwise I am afraid that I will not be able to resist."
"It's not easy for me to come back, to be reunited as a family, I haven't had enough of this kind of day, I don't want to die" Zhou Shi let out, and said whatever he wanted.
Mei Xiaotong's expression softened, "Since we promised to let you come back, we don't want your life yet, and when you are well raised, let's go and get the family law by yourself."
The final word is over, and nothing has changed.
No matter what Mei Xiaoque, Tianlong, and Tianhu think in their hearts, this matter is so decided.
Mei Xiaotong helped Mrs. Li back to the house, although Mei Zhongzhong came in with a hum first, in fact, she had been pricking up her ears to listen to the movement outside, and at this moment she heard that the matter was solved, and the eldest family did not have to be separated, so she was also relieved, and when she saw Mei Xiaotong come in, she snorted unnaturally and nodded and went out.
Mrs. Li had long been accustomed to Mei Zhongzhong's temper, and she didn't bother to take care of him, lying on the kang, and suddenly felt a little sad, "Girl, this family is dragging you down, and your mother is dragging you down, if it weren't for your mother, you wouldn't have to pull this big family, you see these troublesome things every day"
"Mother, what are you talking about, I just feel sorry for my mother" After a pause, Mei Xiaotong made up her mind to speak, "Mother, I thought about it yesterday, if you don't want to see the Zhou family, there is another way, I will immediately recruit a son-in-law to marry, and after I get married, I can set up my own door and ask for a separation." When the time comes, I'll take my mother over, let's live alone, mother, you see if it's okay."
The last time she said that she was dividing the family, it was really not in vain, and after she finished speaking, she also went to inquire about the situation like their family, how to divide it.
However, the facts are very frustrating, if nothing else, it is impossible for Mrs. Li and Mei Zhongzhong to be separated, and under the condition that the father and mother are not separated, there is no reason for the girl to take her mother over to raise.
What's more, as an unmarried daughter, she can't live alone, which is a headache.
Thinking about it, there is only a son-in-law who can come to the door to get married, and the daughter who recruits is regarded as a son, but she can be separated separately or support her parents.
The worst plan for her is to take Mei Zhongzhong over to support her, at most she will waste some money.
So what she said yesterday seemed to be a joke, but it was actually seriously considered.
When Mrs. Li heard this, she didn't know what her daughter's idea was, and she slapped Mei Xiaotong's arm gently, "You don't talk nonsense, there is no door in your mouth, this is a girl's family that a girl can say casually, and a lifelong event is a lifelong thing, and you can't do it for me."
The old woman is hiding and idle, just find someone at random, you are also angry, where is there for the Zhou family, they are so angry that they are in a mess, which card is they on, and it is also worth you like this"
"I know that you are distressed mother, don't worry, mother is the person who will suffer, Zhou has not been courted in my hands at the beginning, and now her handle is in my hands, even if she receives the family law, how can she get divorced and want to remarry, in front of my mother-in-law, I can't raise my head for the rest of my life"
"Besides, your business, if you want to do it, you really can't leave the boss now, if you really divide them, I'm not at ease. I spent so much money on them before, and I still owe a favor to the people who are born after the An family, if you want to divide it, forget it, don't look at what they say, what is divided, earn money and pay you back, what to pay"
"The land is in my name and your father's name, I don't agree, they can't share the land, since it's going to be divided, they don't want to meddle in this business, what do they rely on to make money, and when the time comes, say that there is no money, you can force Bibi to go, it's better to let them be at home, do business with all their hearts, and make money for my daughter."
"Don't say anything else, there are old ladies watching, they don't want to make ghosts, girl, you study more about what kind of dye, earn more private money, as long as you do the mountain goods business for a day, you should get it, and your mother won't let them take a cent"
Speaking of this, Mrs. Li smiled, "Besides, my mother has been fighting with Zhou's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law for more than ten years, and it has become a habit, some time ago she ran home together, no one quarreled with her mother, and my mother was a little unaccustomed to it." It's good for her to come back, my mother scolds her every day, picks a fault or something, she doesn't dare to talk back now, as long as she thinks of her being unconvinced, but she has to hold back, her mother can happily kill two bowls of rice. ”
With all that said, what else can Mei Xiaotong say, she can only tell Mrs. Li to take it easy.
On the one hand, he secretly made up his mind in his heart, and he was not in a hurry about his marriage, so he should quickly find a daughter-in-law for the fourth brother, and after the fourth brother got married, he would have more room to cāocāo.
No matter how bad it is, at most another year or two, she will not be as passive as she is now.
Zhou's affairs are so decided, every day Zhou is in the big room to cultivate her body, she wants to behave now, and she doesn't dare to lie in the house every day.
Although he can't do heavy work yet, he is very discerning, helping to choose a dish, sweeping a yard, or going to the stove house to help Wen's family.
Because I want to grab the medicine to replenish qi and blood, I heard the old doctor Liu say that he has to make some pork liver or something for the Zhou family to eat, this cost of silver, Mrs. Li is also very strong to decide first, this has to be deducted from the monthly money after the big house, and it cannot be given in vain.
Dafang is now the time to clamp his tail and be a man, and no one has an opinion.
Zhou was most distressed, and he only hated himself for not getting better quickly and wasting so much money.
I finally healed the wound on my head, Zhou Shiyou
Mei Xiaoque accompanied him to the Mei family ancestral hall to receive the family law.
The head of the Mei family had already heard Mei Zhongzhong say hello, but it was nothing, and the other villagers knew the news, and they all went to see the hot rè.
There is a broken mouth that says that the Mei family is too unkind, and this week's life for Mei Xiaoque's life is almost gone, how can he bear to let the family lead the family law
If you know a little about the door, you will smack at her, "The Mei family is the way to pay attention to people, I still remember that the incident in the next village thirty years ago was not a human life, isn't it because I didn't get the consent of my father and mother and the clan, and I ended up like that"
"It's not, it's time to get the family law, who doesn't know what the Zhou family did at the beginning, and if the daughter-in-law of other people's families learns it in the future, the in-laws will run away if they are in trouble, and when the in-laws' family gets up, and they come back like no one else, wouldn't it be a mess."
In this way, most people think that it should be.
The two brothers, Tianlong and Tianhu, who were hiding in the crowd, only felt panicked on their faces, and they couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into.
Because it is the female dependents who lead the family law, and the person who implements the family law is also the daughter-in-law of the patriarch, she used the thorn to draw twenty times the back of the Zhou family before it was finished.
After receiving the family law, Zhou passed out, and his back clothes were torn and bloodstained.
Mei Xiaoque's legs are not enough for him to pick up the Zhou family now, but fortunately, Tianlong and Tianhu stayed outside, and when they saw the patriarch's daughter-in-law coming out, they hurriedly went in, wrapped the Zhou family in their clothes, and carried them home.
This family method, which looks serious, is actually a skin injury, which also allowed Zhou's to recuperate for more than half a month.
After the injury was healed, Zhou went out for the first time, and met the mother-in-law in the village, who laughed at her for receiving the family law and laughed at her.
After that, Zhou didn't like to go out very much, unless he went to work in the fields, he was usually bored at home.
Not only Zhou's, Tianbao has not gone out for a while, and the children in the village laugh at him for having a mother who does not abide by women's morals, dislikes poverty and loves richness, and can even receive family law in order to live a good life.
He now slowly understands something, these words know that they are not good words, I heard them at first, and came back to ask Zhou, Zhou's after a while, he hugged him and cried, I was really remorseful and angry, but in the face of the inquiring eyes of the leopard, she couldn't say a word of justification for herself.
Since then, Tianbao has been silent a lot, and he has also distanced himself from the Zhou family, and he follows Mei Changgui every day.
It is now the end of summer, and the crops in the fields are not yet ripe, and some of the mountain goods on the mountains can be harvested.
Mei Xiaotong felt that it was better to collect it on a small scale first to see how to practice, so as not to wait for autumn to come, and there would be too many mountain goods to be busy.
Therefore, during this time, Tianlong and Tianhu were adding Tianbao, and the three brothers followed Mei Changgui to run around several nearby villages, asking if there were any mountain goods to sell.
Mei Xiaoque
's leg is almost better, that day ri grabbed water his leg suddenly hurt, two days later, there was a torrential rain, relieved the drought qg, only to make him realize that an hua hao said that day, in case of rainy weather, it will be painful and unbearable.
Now that I can walk, I know the pain of not being able to walk, and I pay more and more attention to my legs, and now I can't do heavy work, but I don't have the face to be idle.
Now he only needs to wait at home every day, waiting for the fourth child and a few children to bring the seller of mountain goods, let him evaluate the quality, and then evaluate the price.
Fortunately, the shēn skill he learned from Old Man Wang has not been lost, and the skill of distinguishing the color of this kind of mountain goods seems to be full.
At the beginning, because I hadn't done it before, and I didn't have the bottom in my heart, I shrank back, I didn't dare to estimate it, for fear that I would misestimate the price, and the family would lose money.
Mei Xiaotong didn't have a bottom in her heart, but she was prepared, most of the mountain goods in the mountains were like that, the price, with the price that Mrs. Li sold before, and then inquired about the market from the shopkeeper Zheng, An Huahao heard about it, and I don't know where to get her a price of mountain goods in the county now.
She has a number in her heart, add and subtract, and the approximate price is one or two percent higher than those mountain goods dealers, and it will be almost the same.
Because the market QG has not yet been determined, she does not dare to set the price too high, plus the summer things, it is definitely not as good as the autumn, and the color is naturally slightly worse, and the price is cheaper.
She didn't think about how much she would earn at one time, she just wanted to beat the reputation out first and make less money, but she would accumulate a lot and make a conscience deal.
With Mei Xiaotong saying this, Mei Xiaoque had a bottom in her heart.
After a few days of training, I gradually got started, and now it is basically Mei Xiaoque who is responsible for collecting mountain goods at home, and Mei Xiaotong can ignore it, unless it is a particularly good thing, and the amount of money needed is huge, but I don't dare to call the shots, and Mei Xiaotong still has to decide.
Just because the price is so high that it is about one percent, after it is spread, it has attracted many people, after all, for the bankers, a penny is also good.
At the beginning, Mei Changgui came back from everywhere, or brought people back with goods, gradually, the reputation spread out, all said that the Mei family received things, the price was fair, for a time many people will be at home to send the mountain goods to the Mei family, at the door of the Mei family, every day there is an endless stream of people, hot rè hot rè noisy, so that the people around envy.
They are all people in the nearby mountains, carrying all kinds of mountain goods to buy and sell, fox skin, wild boar skin, hare skin, roe deer skin, dried mountain mushroom, dried fungus, dried medicinal herbs, air-dried bacon rou, air-dried wild vegetables, all kinds of rare dried fruits and so on.
And so on.
Because of these days
There are many people who come to sell mountain goods, and the Mei family's yard can't be crowded.
Mei Zhongzhong simply resumed his carpentry trade, and at the gate, he set up a simple and sturdy shed and built a long table, which was regarded as a receiving place.
A few long benches were put in the shed, so that the people who came to sell goods could rest.
There is also a small wooden bucket next to it, in which there is freshly drawn well water at any time, and there is a scoop that thirsty people can drink at any time.
These are all proposed by Mei Xiaotong, Mei Zhongzhong now sees that business is booming, and knows that this is all the credit of her daughter.
The girl has a vision and talent for doing business, even if he is hard-mouthed, he has to admit it in his heart.
Therefore, as soon as Mei Xiaotong said it, he hurriedly rushed out.
Not to mention, don't look at a few benches, a bucket of water, and it doesn't take much effort, but for those villagers who have walked dozens of miles of mountain roads, it is a rare thoughtfulness.
When you are tired of walking, you can rest your feet here, and you can drink saliva, who doesn't say that the Mei family is kind behind your back
Mei Changgui is now responsible for going to the countryside to receive goods, because Tianlong and Tianhu have been taught some tricks by Mei Xiaoque to identify mountain goods, so when he goes out, he will always take one of the two brothers, although he sleeps in the open and occasionally spends the night outside, people are very hard, but the growth of the three people is indeed obvious.
Mei Changgui is much more stable now, has done more business, and is not so straight, he can look at his face, and his speech is not so straightforward.
Tianlong and Tianhu followed for a while, and the people also lost weight and became dark, because they had seen more, they swept away the unhappiness caused by Zhou's affairs and gained some confidence.
The mountain goods are received home, and they can't just be thrown into the house, but they also have to be dried, pickled, stored, and the Mei family is very busy every day, half the size of the child, the girl has to go up to help, even Xiao Duo is so small, I know that there are things to dry in the yard, and I have to turn it over at the interval, which can be sold for money.
Since having this shed and long table, Mei Xiaoque has been carrying a chair and sitting behind the table every day, mainly because her legs can't stand for a long time, but she looks like a shopkeeper in a mountain store.
A swarthy mountain man carrying a basket on his back approached the old Mei's goods shed looking left and right, "A few brothers, ask you about something, ask, is the Mei family who collects mountain goods here?"
Mei Xiaoque stood up with a smile.
"Big brother, this is it, you want to sell mountain goods, how do I see that big brother, you are a little familiar, it's the people around here, no" Mei Xiaoque has also learned now, chatting with the people who come to sell mountain goods, and climbing friendships.
"But no, I'm from Wadian Village next door, I was lucky last month, I hit a pure white fox skin, big brother, you give me a palm eye, see how much silver I can sell"
The man in the mountains took out a coarse cloth package from the basket and put it
On the table, carefully open the package, and a snow-white fox fur without a trace of stray hair appeared in front of everyone.
"Good thing," someone next to him couldn't help but exclaim.
Since the Mei family built this mountain goods shed at the door, the old and young people in the village will come here to sit and sit when they have nothing to do.
Now there is no work in the field, just waiting for the rice poplar heading and filling, the field only needs someone to watch, those who are okay, young and old, the work at home is done, all come to the door of Lao Mei's house to find a hot rè strange look.
This also has an advantage, as long as the nearby mountain people want to come to sell mountain goods, even if they don't know where the Mei family is, they will know that they have arrived when they see that there are many people looking for them.
Fox skin is a precious thing, especially this white fox skin without a little variegation, Mei Xiaoque first let the mountain man sit and rest for a while, and then carefully washed his hands with pancreas in another wooden basin next to him, dried it with a cloth, and then carefully picked up the fox skin.
This is all requested by Mei Xiaotong, forget about the usual mountain goods, this kind of expensive thing, this attitude is put out first, so that people can look at it comfortably.
Mei Xiaoque first looked at it, touched it again, then blew on the fur, observed it, smelled the fur again, and groaned for a while before speaking.
"Well, white fox fur, shiny fur, stout plates, slightly sparse plush. The fur has a slight taste, and I think the concoction technique is a little lacking. Big brother, your white fox is considered a medium grade, if you wait until the end of autumn and early winter to hit such a fox skin, the fox fluff at that time is tight, it is the best grade. I'll give three taels of silver, big brother, you see if it's okay."
The swarthy man in the mountains was so excited that his eyes were red, "Brother, I'll sell it, I'll sell it"
