Chapter 68: The Fourth Uncle's Family Affairs

Because there was something to do with the fourth uncle, Mingyue first went to the foundation to take a look, and there were still a lot of people around, but she didn't see the fourth uncle, Mingyue went up to say hello to her grandmother.

Old Man Ming nodded towards Mingyue and continued to be busy.

The helpers and onlookers, there were a lot of people around, but Mrs. Ming put on the appearance of a kind grandmother, and greeted Mingyue with a smile, "Why is the moon girl here?" ”

With such a warm smile, Mingyue was a little unaccustomed to it, and tried to keep a smile and asked, "I just came to see it, why didn't I see the fourth uncle?" ”

Mrs. Ming responded, "Your fourth uncle has something to do and went back to the mountain." ”

Listening to Mrs. Ming's words, Mingyue ran away, saying as she ran, "Grandma is busy first, I'll go find the fourth uncle." ”

Mrs. Ming, who was still listening from afar, shouted behind her, "Girl, slow down, don't fall." This concerned tone made Mingyue's body tremble unconsciously.

The people around saw the bright moon, but they all talked about it.

"Isn't the Ming family rich? How could he be willing to marry the daughter of the Ming family to the Li family in Nadalu Village. ”

"This old lady Ming pretends to be quite similar, and she is willing to marry her granddaughter to the paralyzed man, and she pretends to be concerned."

"The girls are all money-losers, it's not the same who they marry, not to mention the high gift money given by the Li family in Dalu Village, it's cost-effective."

"You can't say that, what's wrong with this girl, some girls are much more filial than their sons."

"It's not that you don't know, the two old guys of the Ming family can't see this mother and son the most, don't they just marry that girl to a paralyzed man and sell it to others."

Several women were discussing the joy, but suddenly a cold voice interjected, "How many aunts are so idle?" Don't you have any work to do at home? ”

A few women who were gossiping together raised their heads, and saw Ming Yao, a boy from the Ming family, staring at them coldly, several women smiled awkwardly, made up a random reason, and dispersed.

When Mingyue arrived on the mountain, she saw the fourth uncle Mingwenli sitting on a stone in the courtyard, with his head down as if he was thinking about something, but Mingyue didn't notice it when he approached.

"Fourth uncle, what do you want?"

Listening to Mingyue's shout, Mingwenli raised his head and said listlessly, "Yue'er is back." ”

Mingyue sat down on a stone next to Ming Wenli and said with a smile, "Fourth uncle, I heard from my mother that my grandmother found a good family affair for you, why are you so listless?" ”

Mingwenli listened to Mingyue's words, the expression on his face became even more annoyed, and he said sullenly, "What kind of good family business, if it's really a good family business, can you get my turn?" ”

Hearing something in the fourth uncle's words, Mingyue asked curiously, "What's the matter?" Tell me about it? I'll give you ideas. ”

Mingwenli said, "Where is a good girl, her brother was not in Xiucai before, and I went to school in the county school, she often went to the county school to see her brother, at that time there were rumors that she had a relationship with a gentleman in the county, I didn't believe it at the time, let them not talk nonsense, ruined the reputation of other girls, only once, I accidentally bumped into her in a small alley in the school and hugged her with that gentleman brother." ”

This kind of thing, for Mingyue, who is used to seeing Fengyue in modern times, doesn't think it's a big deal, and doesn't change his face, "Then the fourth uncle just told the grandmother directly, why do you want to be a soldier secretly for this matter?" ”

Ming Wenli said with a distressed face, "But my father and mother have agreed with people on their birthdays and decided on this family matter, if I say it, it will not only completely ruin the reputation of others, but also offend her family, her brother is now a showman." ”

Mingyue pursed her lips and said, "What's wrong with Xiucai, Xiucai can still force people to marry wives?" By the way, did that show know that our family had a holiday with the Xu family in the town? ”

Ming Wenli nodded in response, "Of course I know, the matter of me breaking Xu Zheng's leg caused a lot of trouble in the county school, how could he not know?" ”

Mingyue said, "So you still want to marry his sister to you?" It seems that his sister is unsalable, and she really can't get married! ”

Ming Wenli poked Mingyue's forehead with his finger dissatisfied, "What are you talking about, is your fourth uncle so bad?" ”

Mingyue patted Ming Wenli's fingers, touched the forehead that was poked by Ming Wenli, and said, "Fourth uncle, this is not a problem of whether you are bad or not, my fourth uncle is so powerful and majestic, full of economy, heroic and extraordinary, heroic and unyielding, can bend and stretch, how can it be bad?" ”

Ming Wenli was amused by Mingyue's nonsense, and scolded lightly, "What idiom do you use indiscriminately?" Speak well. ”

Mingyue smiled and continued, "According to how many times I've been to the Xu family, I'm afraid that someone in the Xu family is an official, right?" And I'm afraid that this Zibo county also has some power, right? The Xu family has a holiday with our family, and this person with a little brain will not marry his daughter into our family at this juncture, Xiucai should know more about this relationship, so he will marry his sister to you, not unsalable What is it that can't be married, maybe it's still a ball to sell urgently. ”

Ming Wenli asked curiously, "What is a rush with the ball?" ”

Mingyue explained, "It's just that I already have one in my stomach, and I'm in a hurry to find a cheap dad to take over." ”

Ming Wenli listened to Mingyue's explanation, frowned and said, "Where did you hear all this nonsense?" ”

Mingyue was annoyed that she was quick for a while, and hurriedly said with a smile, "I accidentally flipped through the book at Li Yun's house, and it was written like this. Mingyue thought about it again and again, and still felt that the back of this black pot Li Yun's bookshelf was more suitable than that of his godfather.

Ming Wenli was about to say a few words to Li Yun, when he saw Xu Jinniang and a few children coming in from outside the courtyard, and when he saw Mingyue, he happily greeted him, "Ah, Yue'er is back." ”

Mingyue saw Xu Jinniang and a few children coming in from outside, with a backpack behind her, she couldn't help frowning, and said, "Mother, it's not safe outside this mountain, why do you have to go out at will?" ”

The danger of Daliang Mountain, others may not know, but Ming Wenli, who has gone out with Mingyue a few times, is the most clear, and he also frowned and said, "Second sister-in-law, if you have anything, just ask me or Mingyao to go, but don't go by yourself." ”

Xu Jinniang saw that the two of them were speaking solemnly like this, and said with a worried face, "This, I haven't seen any beasts in the mountains for so many days." ”

Mingyue said seriously, "You can't take chances, what if you accidentally meet you?" ”

Minghui on the side interjected, "Sister Yue'er, we have bows and arrows. ”

Mingyue glared at Minghui, "Finish practicing your bow and arrow before you speak." Thinking of the accuracy of his archery, Minghui closed his mouth stupidly.

Xu Jinniang saw that Mingyue was rarely so serious, and responded with a smile, "Okay, my mother won't go out next time, you talk first, I'll go cook." Then he went into the house with a basket on his back.

Mingyang leaned over to Mingyue, lay on Mingyue's lap, and said proudly, "Sister, I found a lot of wild vegetables." ”

Mingyue pinched Mingyang's face and said with a smile, "Xiaoyang is really capable, the rabbit is hungry, hurry up and feed the rabbit." ”

Seeing that Mingyang went to the rabbit nest in the rightmost corner of the yard one by one, and asked Mingming and Mingkang to help pick wild vegetables, Mingyue continued to say to the fourth uncle Mingwenli, "It's really dangerous to stay on the mountain, it's better to move to the bottom of the mountain." Don't mention the matter of being a soldier, the fourth uncle can't be missing. ”

Ming Wenli frowned, "But what about this family matter?" ”

Mingyue leaned close to Ming Wenli's ear and whispered softly for a while, frowning and nodding when she heard Ming Wenli.

After Mingyue finished speaking, Ming Wenli said with some hesitation, "Then what if you don't go?" ”

Mingyue affirmed, "If this gentleman really has something to do with that girl, he will definitely go." ”

"But what if she depends on me?"

Mingyue said with a smile, "Fourth uncle, don't worry, since this girl can have a relationship with the gentleman, she must be a master who is greedy for money and vain, and if she has the opportunity to climb the high branches, she will definitely not look down on you." However, the fourth uncle should also pay attention, but he can't expose himself. ”

Ming Wenli nodded and responded, "Then I'll try, if it doesn't work, I'll go to the army again." ”

The corners of Mingyue's eyes twitched slightly, why do you still want to be a soldier, it seems that this fourth uncle really doesn't want to see that girl.

Standing up and patting the ashes on his body, Mingyue said, "I'm going to go first, I promised my godgrandmother yesterday, saying that I would go over for lunch at noon today, if I don't go, I guess I'll have to be in a hurry." ”

After speaking, Mingyue entered the house and greeted Xu Jinniang, "Mother, I'll go first, I have to go to my godfather's house, you remember, you can't go to the mountains at will." ”

Xu Jinniang stopped what she was doing and looked at Mingyue, "Why don't you eat and leave?" ”

Mingyue said as she went out, "I told my godgrandmother yesterday to go to lunch, if you don't eat, I guess I'm in a hurry, I'll come back next time to eat." As he spoke, he went to the rabbit's nest and grabbed a rabbit and held it in his hand.

Mingyang looked at the rabbit in Mingyue's hand and asked curiously, "Sister, what are you doing catching rabbits?" ”

Mingyue responded, "It's useful for my sister to catch rabbits, Mingyang has to raise rabbits well at home, my sister will come and see it next time." ”

Mingyang reluctantly grabbed Mingyue's trouser leg, "Sister, are you leaving, you didn't play with me." ”

Mingyue rubbed Mingyang's head with a free hand, and coaxed, "Xiaoyang is good, my sister will come over next time to take you to play, raise the rabbit well, and practice boxing well, learn to read and write with the fourth uncle, and my sister will come to check next time, be obedient." ”

Immediately, he turned his head to Minghui Mingkang and said, "You two are the same, practice boxing, don't be allowed to read and write, by the way, also, practice arrows well." ”

Minghui and Mingkang both nodded solemnly.

After greeting the fourth uncle, Mingyue planned to leave.

Xu Jinniang chased it out, and sent Mingyue outside the courtyard with a chatter, only until she couldn't see Mingyue's back, so she reluctantly went in to make lunch.

Mingyue hugged the rabbit and quickly rushed to her godfather's house.
