Chapter 162: Where to go
It turned out that when the two of them were talking, Zhang Yuan said that he had leaked his mouth, and he had just taken a nap in the house, not reading. Hao Youlan casually persuaded him a few words, don't waste your studies, even if you can't get famous this year, it doesn't matter, you can take the exam next year.
Hearing such words, Zhang Yuan was furious, thinking that it was an insult to himself, his cousin would only urge himself to study, and never cared about other things, he had to manage such a big Zhuangzi, but also study, which is hard who can understand, who can understand!
Manage...... Zhuangzi ...... Mai Xiaohuan really wanted to ask him how to manage the overgrown weeds everywhere to have this effect.
Hao Youlan is also a pampered little girl, she has never been wronged at home, and today she was made very faceless by Zhang Yuan in front of her friends, and she couldn't help crying. Zhang Yuan saw her crying, closed her mouth and stopped making noise, but she didn't go over to coax people, Mai Xiaohuan was not worth and worried about her friends, would these two people really be happy together?
At this time, it happened that Mai Yonghai came to find his sister, and when he saw Hao Youlan crying like a rabbit in her eyes, she didn't know how to comfort her, such a good little girl was too cruel to make her sad.
"Second brother, do you have something to do with me?"
"Hmmm! Although it rained, no one can say what will happen in the future, but I want to build another waterwheel by the river and build a large pond upstream of the mountain village, so that in case of water shortage, it will not be too rushed. ”
The second brother is now more and more thoughtful, Mai Xiaohuan patted him on the shoulder with relief, but was hit with a chestnut.
The conversation between the brother and sister had a completely different effect when they heard Hao Youlan's ears and Zhang Yuan's ears. Hao Youlan thinks that Mai Yonghai is very pragmatic, the family is already so rich, and he is still doing everything himself, which is really good.
Zhang Yuan does not approve of investing so much manpower and material resources to do those useless things, just farm and rely on the sky to eat, and be busy all day long. If it weren't for the Mai family giving her cousin an idea, she might not have bought this broken Zhuangzi, and with those thousands of taels of silver, she could live leisurely for several years, maybe she would be able to get the top prize during this period.
"The farmer knows how to deal with mud all day long, and this year is destined to be gone, so what are you busy with."
The farmer did not want to hear him, and it was no different from cursing others. Hao Youlan pushed Zhang Yuan in a hurry and asked him to stop talking, but he was beaten by him, although it was on the arm, Hao Youlan still rubbed his arm in pain.
"Young Master Cousin, my young lady is sincere to you, how can you bully people! In our Hao family, no one has ever said a heavy word to the young lady, move her a finger, why are you, I will tell the master to go after I go back. ”
The Mai family sisters nodded in agreement, this kind of person should be handed over to Master Hao to repair it, what kind of ability is it to bully girls.
"Xiao He, don't mess around, my cousin was joking with me just now, he didn't want to beat me, it's just a small accident, don't go back and talk nonsense."
"You are just a maid, what qualifications do you have to manage the affairs between the masters, my cousin and I have a marriage contract, dare to be disrespectful to the master, I have the right to sell you in the future."
As soon as his words came out, even Hao Youlan felt incredulous, Xiao He has been serving by his side since he was five years old, the two of them are called master and servant, but the relationship is better than that of his own sisters, this cousin also knows, how can he say such a thing!
Xiao He also secretly wiped away her tears, Miss hasn't married yet! The young master bullied himself and threatened to sell himself, if that's the case, what can he do in the future!
"What kind of ability do you have to bully a little girl, study and get the top prize, or take care of the family business, which of the two have you done, and you are embarrassed to play with your temper, you are not worthy of Youlan at all, and you have blinded her mind." Mai Xiaofang stood in front of Zhang Yuan and pinched * accused.
Zhang Yuanke didn't like to hear this, thinking that the Zhang family and the Hao family were the right people back then, and their identity was no worse than that of their cousin. It was a lot of changes in the family that delayed her studies, this is God deliberately embarrassing, what does it have to do with herself, and now this girl has put all the fault on herself, so who will she tell her grievances.
didn't want his sister to quarrel with Zhang Yuan, so Mai Yonghai pulled his sister back and wanted to send them home. Hao Youlan didn't want to stay anymore, her mind was in a mess now, and she didn't know how to plan the future of herself and her cousin.
"Are you really going with them, Mai family...... With your identity and knowledge, how can you make friends with them, or do the Hao family want to repent of their marriage and marry the Mai family again. ”
What and what is this! Mai Yonghai glanced at Hao Youlan, whose pretty face was flushed, and replied to Zhang Yuan: "Please don't insult Miss Hao, the reason why our family has dealings with the Hao family is the first business relationship; The second is because my sister and Miss Hao have known each other since childhood, don't you talk nonsense here? ”
Hearing this, Zhang Yuan pursed his lips in distrust, and his expression fell into Hao Youlan's eyes, only to feel a piercing pain. She was asking herself if it was really worth it to keep arguing with her father over and over again over the matter of getting out of her marriage, who had been silently supporting her cousin for so many years?
In order to avoid suspicion, Mai Yonghai sent a few little girls to the gate of the villa, turned around and left.
"That Zhang Yuan is not as good as my second brother!" Mai Xiaofang couldn't help but complain.
Hao Youlan's face turned red again, and Mai Xiaohuan glared at the second sister with disgust, what kind of big truth, it hurts people, do you know? Hao Youlan insisted on going home, and was dragged into the villa by Shan Cuihua, who went out to greet the three of them. For a moment, Mai Xiaohuan felt that her mother was like a bully who robbed people's daughters.
"Mother saw that there were no two of us in Yulan's eyes." Mai Xiaofang closed the door while eating flying vinegar.
The next day, Hao Youlan's brother Hao Youmin personally came to pick up his sister, Shan Cuihua collected a lot of villa specialties and gave them to the brother and sister, and kept telling Hao Youlan to come back to play in a few days! Mai Xiaofang stretched out her two white and tender little hands with vinegar and shook them back and forth in front of her mother.
"What do you mean?" Shan Cuihua asked puzzled.
"You've said that more than ten times."
"If you don't beat you for a few days, you'll itch again, right?"
"There's a guest here! You're not willing to do it. ”
After sending Hao Youlan to the carriage in laughter, after the brother and sister left Yifeng Villa for a long time, Hao Youmin sighed and persuaded his sister: "Do you think that my father doesn't know about buying Zhuangzi and giving it to Zhang Yuan?" He knows everything, but he can't bear to say it, afraid that you will be embarrassed, and he hopes that you will wake up by yourself.
Look at the difference between what he made that Zhuangzi and the broken temple, he is really not as good as Mai Yonghai, with such a person, no matter how much body you have, you will be ruined by him, do you want your father to worry about you all day long when he is old? Do you really have to choose between keeping your promise and filial piety? ”
"Brother, I'...... Don't you say it, okay? Hao Youlan's heart was very confused, of course she felt sorry for her father, but she couldn't do anything that broke her promise!
Hao Youmin decided to wake up his sister today: "When my aunt didn't die, I looked for my father and asked the family to pay 10,000 taels of silver, and they returned your Geng sticker, and said a lot of things about you being a pampered lady and they are not all the way at all."
Dad was angry and ordered the silver ticket on the spot, who would have thought that Geng Tie would die before she could send it back. ”
There is also this kind of thing, Hao Youlan looked at her brother in surprise, wanting to find even the slightest trace of lying on his face: "You must think I'm lying, right?" The money note written by my aunt back then was kept at home, and when I went back, I will take you to ask your father for it, and it will be a big deal to be beaten. ”
"Why didn't my dad tell me about this?"
"It's my mother who doesn't want you to know, my aunt didn't have enough to pay off the debt with 10,000 taels of silver, my mother took pity on Zhang Yuan, and funded him to let him get a fame and come back, so I begged my father to come back, don't tell the truth to the two of you, in case a yuan is promising, you can't be together. But what has he done all these years, complaining about God's injustice every day, he just doesn't know how to work hard.
Dad promised that it would not be easy to regret it, so he could only knock on the side and hope that you would wake up by yourself, who knew that you were so trustworthy and refused to give up anything. ”
Are you really wrong?
Hao Youmin saw that his sister listened to his words, and made persistent efforts: "You are fourteen years old this year, you really can't be obsessed anymore, haven't you noticed that your father's hair has turned gray very fast in the past two years?" No matter how difficult things are in the business field, he is not afraid of the old man, he is afraid of delaying you!
Just yesterday my father and mother quarreled, and my father said that my mother would ruin your life if I continued like this, and my mother kept crying, and then finally promised my father that when you go home, tell the truth, and you will judge and choose by yourself. ”
I don't know where to go!
Mai Xiaohuan couldn't bear to let the grass on Zhang Yuanzhuangzi go to waste, so he spent a hundred taels of silver to buy it, and every day the long-term workers and tenants of Yifeng Garden went to cut the grass and came back to feed the cattle, sheep and geese. Because of the need to avoid crops, the speed of mowing grass is a little slow, and after Zhang Yuan found out about this phenomenon, he told them to take it all! I don't want to bother with that bit of land in the fall.
Mai Xiaohuan didn't know how to spoil the crops, she went to the field to inspect it, and thought that Zhang Yuan's decision was quite wise, because those crops were no different from grass now, there were not many grains, weak and short.
Zhang Yuan is also beautiful enough, now he has peace of mind, he can study with peace of mind, and he doesn't have to worry about not having money to spend when he takes the exam.
So a large patch of grass grew on hundreds of acres of fertile land, and finally sold for a hundred taels of silver. When this result was placed in front of Hao Youlan and his mother, a sad smile was really disappointed in Zhang Yuan; A howling cry said that he had delayed his daughter, and now he has finally sobered up after so many years of confusion, and he will no longer be obsessed, even if his nephew is admitted to the top prize, he will definitely not be able to do it again.
