Hu Mingde returned to his home in Qiaotou Town in one go.

Approaching the wax moon, the family is at home, and they have begun to be busy with the New Year.

Hu Mingde and the eldest brother and sister-in-law closed the door and talked, Hu Mingde first told Mr. Yao what he had explained, looked at the sister-in-law who was frowning and shaking her head, and the eldest brother who was frowning, and then said: "...... Mr. said that he had told the Constitutional Division, that the matter was done, and that I would be asked to be a showman in the county exam next year. That's why I should have it. ”

Sister-in-law Zhao and Hu Dasi's eyes widened together.

"Big brother and sister-in-law, think about it, if I become a showman, our family will no longer have to pay for food as an errand, just this one, how much do you have to save in a year?

Besides, if our family becomes a family of Xiucai, Shinong Industry and Commerce, our family can go up in one step, from farmers to scholars, that is, half of the eunuch's home, we have a radius of dozens of miles, hundreds of miles, there are a lot of children, but Xiucai, where is one?

Also, if our family becomes a family of talents, how many people will have to dedicate themselves to the ground? Even if we only accept the money for food errands, how much do we have to have?

Big brother and sister-in-law, this step up, compared with the present, our family is a sky, a land, half an official house, a well-known scholarly family, nephews and nieces, they are going to talk about kissing or something in the future, they are all very different.

This opportunity is too rare, big brother and sister-in-law, don't you say? Hu Mingde hurriedly continued to persuade.

Zhao's sister-in-law's eyes were very bright, and she poked Hu Da, "What the third brother said is reasonable, we are a Yanguan County, and there are only a few talents?" Look at the Mi Xiucai family in the city, what has become of it now? How poor his family was back then, we all watched it with our own eyes, and every year there were major events in the county, Mi Xiucai sat with the county order, talking and laughing! ”

"It's good, it's good, but you haven't even returned to your mother's house for the past two years, and the quarrel was like that a few years ago, and your brother had to come forward in this matter, didn't you say that your brother listened to your brother's daughter-in-law in everything......"

Such a good thing, Hu Da can't take a bite of it, but thinking about his daughter-in-law and her mother's family, it's useless to think about it.

"In Xikou Town, Brother Hongqing is a scholar, this scholar can not only be good to himself, but also educate the neighbors and correct the people's customs, this is the words of the sage. This obscene thing, the court has repeatedly forbade it, they have such an obscenity that is not a god or a ghost in Xikou Town, if Brother Hongqing doesn't hurry to the official mansion to make a head, when the time comes, it will be found out, he is a scholar, and he will be held accountable, let's do this for the good of Brother Hongqing. ”

Hu Mingde has been a secretary in the Xiansi Yamen for a few years, and his knowledge is different, after saying this, Hu Da and his daughter-in-law Zhao nodded again and again, but no, they are all for the sake of his Zhao Hongqing's family!

"Set the car, let's go, hurry!" Sister-in-law Zhao is a decisive person and immediately made up her mind.

Hu Da hurriedly went out to set up the car, thought about it, and personally moved a bunch of salted chicken, salted fish, and salted pig heads to the car.

Zhao's sister-in-law changed her clothes and came out, and when she saw half a car of chickens, fish, pigs and sheep, she was a little unhappy, "Look at you, it's like this all day, there's really no way, this trip is to talk about things, not to go to relatives, what is this half a car?" Besides, the car is full of things, where are people sitting? ”

"It's just to talk about things, to ask for people, it's not good to be empty-handed." Hu Da explained.

Sister-in-law Zhao waved her hand, "That's my brother-in-law, and he's not an outsider, so you still need to bring things with you?" You're too out-of-the-box. Besides, you didn't listen to the third child, this is also for their good, take a step back and say, you haven't said anything about it, you haven't skimmed the eight characters, how can you send things first? The thing was sent over, but it didn't happen, could it be that you can still pull the thing back? Move down first, and you won't be able to sit in the car. ”

"What my sister-in-law said also makes sense." Hu Mingde picked up the words, "I thought about it again just now, sister-in-law and Brother Hongqing's sister and brother, the kiss can't be kissed anymore, this is filthy and incompatible, it's with Hongqing's sister-in-law, I think, let's go this time, just invite Brother Hongqing out to talk, this is a big matter outside, not Hongqing's sister-in-law's care, she shouldn't let her know." ”

"The third child is right!" Zhao's sister-in-law agreed repeatedly, her younger brother, from childhood to adulthood, listened to her in everything, what a good brother, after marrying a daughter-in-law...... This daughter-in-law didn't pick it well!

Hu Da also felt that his younger brother's words were very right, so he hurriedly moved the chicken and fish meat in the car back, put on the mule, Zhao's sister-in-law sat in the car, Hu Da and Hu three brothers sat in front of the car on the left and right, Hu Da drove the cart and trotted all the way to Xikou Town.

When he arrived in Xikou Town, Hu Da parked the cart at the door of the tea shop at the other end of the town, and at this point, the tea shop was empty. Hu Da parked the car and entered the only private room with his daughter-in-law Zhao and sister-in-law, Hu Mingde strode to Zhao's house to ask Zhao Hongqing to come out and talk.

Twenty or thirty steps away from Zhao's house, Hu Mingde didn't go any further, called a child running around the street, touched a lot of money and handed it to him, "You go to Zhao's house, find Uncle Zhao, and tell him that his classmate passed by Xikou Town and invited him to come out to drink and talk." ”

The child took the big money, ran to the gate of Zhao's house in one breath, slapped the door open, shouted at the top of his voice, and after a while, Zhao Hongqing hurriedly walked out of the courtyard door, standing on the steps and looking left and right.

He was an idler, and he was most excited about the fact that someone was looking for him to drink and talk, but unfortunately there were very few people who came to him.

"Brother Hongqing." Hu Mingde stood dozens of steps away and beckoned to him.

Zhao Hongqing saw that it was Hu Mingde, and hurriedly took a few steps over, with a happy face, "It's San Lang, you are a busy person, why do you have time to come here today?" Go to the house and sit. ”

Hu Mingde pulled him to the tea shop, and said with a smile: "This trip is a special trip to find Brother Hongqing, let's find a place to sit and talk." ”

The town is not big, Hu Ming dragged Zhao Hongqing, and soon entered the tea shop, and entered the private room, Zhao Hongqing saw his sister and brother-in-law, and he was stunned.

His daughter-in-law quarreled with his sister as soon as they met, which was the most distressing, irritating and unsolvable major event in his life for more than 20 years.

Hu Mingde pushed Zhao Hongqing, who was about to flee after turning around, into the private room, blocked the door, and shouted to send a few delicious dim sum dishes, and then send a jar of good rice wine. As for whether any guys heard it, he didn't care about it at this time.

"Sister, why are you ......" Zhao Hongqing dodged and didn't dare to look at his sister.

Sister-in-law Zhao looked hateful and stabbed a finger on his forehead, "Look at your worthless appearance!" No wonder you can't control your daughter-in-law, but you are controlled by your daughter-in-law. ”
