Chapter 81: The Head of the House



Within a few days, on the day of his father's funeral, Mo Li's words about recruiting his son-in-law in public in the mourning hall reached the ears of all parties, causing a lot of shock. It is not uncommon to recruit a son-in-law, but in his father's mourning hall, a woman in the boudoir said it in public like this, but it has never happened.

"It's really surprising to recruit a son-in-law, that girl ......" Mrs. Xie sighed, "The shopkeeper Mo suddenly left, and the old mother and wife and daughter left behind, I'm afraid that life is a little sad, it's hard for that girl." ”

Yan handed tea to Mrs. Xie and said casually: "I heard that the girl shocked everyone that day, even the Mo family lady didn't expect her daughter to say this, it seems that after the Mo shopkeeper left, the girl wanted to be in charge of her own house." ”

Old Mrs. Xie glanced at Yan's family, then closed her eyes and said: "Women are in charge, most of them are forced to be helpless, our Xie family ancestors have never had such a woman who does not let her eyebrows go." ”

Xie San's grandmother Wei Shi on the side also said: "That's right, I remember that the Ji family also had a few women in charge, although they are all ancient, but now on the Ji family's side, I heard that there are also a few women who are in charge." ”

Yan glanced at Wei, and then smiled a little disdainfully: "She is a little girl, how can she compare with the ancestors of our Xie family, let alone the people of the Ji family." ”

Wei glanced at Yan's and smiled: "Such a little girl almost became the second sister-in-law's daughter-in-law, fortunately, people didn't rush to cling to it, otherwise how could the second sister-in-law marry the Xu family now, and she still has to be protected by Concubine Ji." ”

Yan knew that Wei was not angry with her for having a relationship with Concubine Ji, so he used Mo Li's matter to sarcastically say a few words to her, even so, Yan was also a little unhappy on his face, and was about to speak, but at this time, Mrs. Xie coughed lightly, and then opened her eyes and said, "Okay, I'm going to rest, you all go out." ”

It's just that when Wei and Yan got up and were about to go out, Mrs. Xie said again: "Brother Shi'er's matter, the second daughter-in-law, you prepare with your heart and carefully pick a good day, Concubine Ji will leave for Beijing in these two days." ”

After Yan's answer, Mrs. Xie said to Wei again: "Where has Brother Yun been running these days?" I can't see him all the time. ”

"The kid." Wei smiled, walked to Mrs. Xie and said, "Since his sixth uncle settled here in Yongzhou, he will run there whenever he is free, not to mention the old lady, it's me, as long as he is not careful, he will be able to slip out!" I don't know what's going on, he got along with his sixth uncle. ”

"Yuanbai......" Old Lady Xie shook her head helplessly, "That kid is still so stubborn, the house has cleaned up the place for him, he just can't live, he has to go outside to live in that small place, and there is not even a maid to serve him." ”

Xie Funa was talking, Xie Gexian also happened to hear Ping'an say about Mo Li's oath that day, after he listened, he smiled, then picked up a black chess piece, looked at the chessboard in front of him and said: "Recruiting a son-in-law is a good move." ”

Ping'an stood aside and continued: "Childe, don't say it, I heard that as soon as Miss Mo's words were released, many people were moved!" Not to mention that Miss Mo is as beautiful as a flower, it is the family property left by the shopkeeper Mo, which is a piece of fat in the eyes of many people, and I heard that Miss Mo's own family is a little unable to sit still, not to mention some poor people outside who have several sons at home. ”

"You've got a lot of information." After Xie Gexian dropped the chess pieces in his hand, he shook his head and smiled.

Ping'an glanced at Xie Gexian, and then muttered in a low voice: "Didn't you ask me a few words that day, Gongzi was rare to care, so I inquired with all my heart." ”

Xie Gexian picked up a white chess piece again, thought for a while, and then said: "She helped me once, I want to return the favor." ”

Ping An thought for a while, and then said with some hesitation: "Is it possible that Childe wants to be a matchmaker for Miss Mo?" ”

Xie Gexian smiled silently, and after dropping the chess pieces in his hand, he said helplessly: "You go and change this tea, it's cold." ”

As soon as Ping An saw Xie Gexian's expression, he knew that he had guessed wrong, so he smiled, picked up the teapot and withdrew. Xie Gexian picked up another black chess piece, then looked at the chessboard and whispered, "When will she come?" ”

At the same time, Li Yue'er of Changchun Courtyard was unwell, and after resigning a few guests, on the way back to his embroidery room, he looked up at the clear blue sky, smiled with envy, and then said in his heart: Although unfortunate, he is much better than her. Han Si said this, since he heard the oath made by Mo Li in front of Mo Liujin's coffin in the Mo family that day, his heart was always a little restless. It's just that now he is about to marry Zhou Lingling, and he has one thing after another to be busy with in his hands, except for the hours he sleeps at night, he hardly has any extra time to sort out his thoughts. And every time he calms down and thinks about it, he always thinks of Mo Li, who is plain white, and when he kneels down and swears, he has a decisive expression that amazes him, and every time he recalls, he will be excited. `

Such a woman is rare, and the more you come into contact with it, the greater your desire to get! Han Sidao pressed his eyebrows, recruiting a son-in-law, it just happened to save him a headache and he would face the trouble of everyone in the future, anyway, there is still time, so it is also to his liking.

......, "Old lady, did Lili really make this decision?" She told you about it! A few days have passed, and Zhu still can't believe that his daughter would make such a decision.

Mrs. Mo nodded: "That's fine, six catties are gone, this family is deserted, I am reluctant to marry my granddaughter out and cheapen other people's families for nothing, it is good to recruit a son-in-law, so that you can also add a son, and I will also have a grandson for nothing. ”

"But ......" Zhu still can't get back to his senses, what the old lady said is good, but in this world, how can the son of a good family be willing to join the family, but anyone who has a mind is a lazy person nine times out of ten.

"I know what you're worried about, and it's a desperate move." Old Mrs. Mo glanced at the Zhu family, and sighed, "That child is not easy, she wants to provoke this family, if Lili hadn't said this on the day of the funeral, I am afraid that as soon as her father's coffin was carried out, those people in the clan came in and forced me to hand over the title deed of the mulberry garden." This is something that her grandfather has worked hard all his life, I haven't died yet, just so persecuted, how can we still live as widows and orphans! ”

Zhu's eyes suddenly turned red, and he choked up after a while: "But what will I do with Lili in the future, I ......"

"What are you crying about, don't you still have three years of filial piety to keep, I don't believe that after three years, our family will not be able to recruit a down-to-earth guy!" Old Mrs. Mo suppressed the sadness in her heart, and said with a hard breath, "You also cheer me up, let's not talk about this son-in-law, those people in the clan must not have stopped, her cousins or something, at most in a few days should come to the door." Now there are only women left in this family, no matter what, you have to stiffen your back to cheer up Lili, Lili can make this decision, and you, the mother, have to help in the back. ”

Zhu covered his mouth and cried a few times, and then he forced his tears back and nodded again and again.

…… Just when everyone was talking about recruiting a son-in-law, the parties didn't take it to heart at all, as Mrs. Mo said, what was imminent now was not the recruitment of a son-in-law, but the coercion of the family.

"Uncle Gu, has Wang Dahu's horse material come back?" Just when the Zhu family was talking to Old Lady Mo, while Gu Jing came over today, Mo Li hurriedly went over to ask Gu Jing about it. When Mo Liujin had an accident, her shop was closed, and the guys in the store, except for Ah Sheng, all went back to their homes, and I don't know when this store will reopen. Gu Jing is also used to coming over every day, so even though the store is closed, he still comes to check the warehouse from time to time and order goods.

"I came back two days ago, I went to ask yesterday, but it just so happened that Wang Dahu was not there, and his guys couldn't be the master." Gu Jing glanced at the haggard Mo Li with some pity, remembering the words of this girl on the day of the funeral, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and then continued, "Don't worry, girl, this is the last thing the shopkeeper does, I will do it for the shopkeeper, today I will come and order the goods in this warehouse, and I will go to Wang Dahu in a while." ”

"That's fine." Mo Li nodded, and then also glanced at the empty warehouse, thinking about his father's hard work in his life, he felt sour and unspeakable.

Gu Jing thought for a while, and then said, "It's just a girl, what are you going to do with this batch of materials from the shopkeeper?" Is it directly allocated to Wang Dahu? \'

Mo Li came back to his senses and asked puzzledly: "Dial him directly?" Why? ”

After all, he was still a child, and he really didn't think about it, Gu Jing sighed: "The shopkeeper's departure, I'm afraid that this store will not be able to open in a short time, if the material is shelved for a long time, it is easy to smash it in your hands, so it is better to allocate it directly to Wang Dahu." Besides, the shopkeeper's funeral, I'm afraid it cost a lot of silver, but now the girl still has more silver in her hand. "He has been in the Mo family for decades, and he has a good understanding of the situation of this family, and he knows that if Mo Liujin leaves, the Mo family's own side will beat the things left behind by Mo Liujin. The women in this room, old and small, have no cash in their hands, and it will be difficult to resist in the days to come. After hearing this, Mo Li shook his head, and while touching a banana cloth next to him, he said softly: "No, the store will open soon, Uncle Gu can rest assured, this is the hard work of my grandfather and father for two generations, and I will inherit it." ”

Gu Jing was stunned: "But ......" Mo Li looked at the void, with a light smile on his face, sadness on his lips, but perseverance in his eyes: "I am the eldest daughter, my father is gone, and I am the head of the family." ”

Gu Jing was stunned for a moment, Mo Li was silent for a long time before retracting his gaze and looking at Gu Jing and said, "Wang Dahu, then Uncle Gu thinks about it, I have to prepare to meet those clan uncles these days." ”
