Xu Shuyou applauded: "Wonderful! In this way, we have another business road in Tianxianglou. ”

I nodded, "That's true." ”

He suddenly gloomy: "I don't want you to die." ”

"Not for the sake of death." I said lightly: "The victorious soldiers win first, and then seek battle." The defeated army fights first, and then seeks victory. Putting it to death and being reborn, right? ”

"What Brother Mu said is wonderful, not to mention whether you can do that thing, just such courage and insight make Zai admire it to the extreme."

The conversation between the two gradually stopped, and Dong Yong on the stage stared at the fairy: "If the love between the two is long, how can it be in the morning and twilight." ”

I tapped the table with my hand: "Linglong Sezi An Red Bean, do you know that you are lovesick?" ”

Xu Shuyou didn't know what he was thinking when he sang along with the opera.

There are three big things before me right now. First, help Xu Shuyou make Yulu Rouge famous in Los Angeles. Second, to ask for my mother's dowry, at least those two water concentrates. Third, persuade Du Tang to separate His Majesty and the second prince. And these three major events, each of which is not easy.

I thought about it and went to my eldest brother's east courtyard.

He was stroking the harp. The lyre is plucked slowly.

The rhythm is reversed, falling and bumping, as if a drunken person is faltering and depressed, and then the speed increases, the pitch slowly becomes higher, and the drunken person becomes wanton and gradually becomes public. The voice became more intense, repeated arias, and stabilized. The anger of the drunkard is poured out, and it makes people feel refreshed.

Isn't this the "Drunkard" I heard in my previous life?

Overjoyed, he asked, "Big brother knows Ruan's origin?" ”

He looked up: "I haven't heard of it. ”

There was no Ruan nationality before this dynasty. After I sorted out my emotions: "Is this song called "Drunkard"? ”

"Yes."

"I privately thought that my eldest brother was an open-minded person, but it turned out that there were still depressing things, and I was negligent."

In this world, who has not been disappointed? ”

"A friend of mine once said, 'Life must be happy, don't make the gold bottle empty to the moon.' I am born to be useful, and my daughter will come back when I am gone. 'If you can leave behind many sorrowful things, because you have too many scruples, and those of today do only today's things, yesterday and tomorrow have nothing to do with me, wouldn't it be glad that you could leave behind?' ”

"Yao'er is an open-minded person, but your eldest brother can't be unscrupulous."

"It's not the ambition of my generation that the five aggregates are empty, but try your best to do what you want, and the saints also have omissions, so just have a clear conscience."

"Yao'er is relieved, and the eldest brother is much more relieved." The eldest brother put away the solemn face just now, and the corners of his mouth gradually raised.

I saw that my eldest brother was in a better mood, so I hurriedly said, "Eldest brother, now I have one thing that I need you to solve." ”

"Let's talk about it."

"It's been nearly a year since I returned home, and even my father's former best friend will come to ask a few words, but I heard that my grandfather's family is still in Los Angeles, why don't you ignore me?"

When the eldest brother heard my words, he was a little surprised: "Yao'er cares?" ”

"Although we haven't seen each other for many years, we care about our blood relatives." I covered my nose with my sleeve and sobbed. yes, it's not like I don't care.

The eldest brother was a little flustered: "Yao'er, don't cry, your grandfather's family is not a ruthless person." Just ......"

"Just what?" I looked up, my eyes full of anticipation.

The eldest brother said with some reluctance: "Your grandfather's family has been a merchant for many years, and he has become rich in Luocheng. The Qu family had no intention of entering the office, and your uncle, who was the teacher of the first emperor, later went into hiding. My grandfather loves Aunt Fu very much, I didn't agree with your mother marrying the eunuch's family, at that time, my father had already sealed Ning Anhou, and the second uncle was also young and promising, but this is not the most important thing, the important thing is that your grandfather Qu family has a feud with our Song family for several generations. ”

"How many generations of feuds?"

"When the ancestor was there, the Qu family was also an official, but because of the ancestor's impeachment of the Qu family's embezzlement of ink, he was defeated, and then withdrew from the official career and turned to business. It's been so long ago that even the younger generations don't know it very well. The second uncle met and got to know the second aunt in this way, and when it was time to propose marriage, the elders of the Qu family had no choice but to say this. ”

"And then my mother still married my father despite the opposition of the clan?"

The eldest brother nodded: "The second uncle was very moved, it turned out that the Shangjia family would not be the main wife, but the second uncle insisted on marrying Aunt Fu." ”

"I see. Then big brother, you say, I want to go and meet my grandfather, is it possible? ”

"Your grandfather is not a ruthless person, he must be sincere, and the gold and stone are open."

Looking back, I thought about it for a while, and I still had to go to see my grandfather. Although I know that my wife's family can no longer ask for the dowry in a straightforward manner, at least there must be someone to rely on, and there must be public opinion and support so that I will not go back to the dowry alone. Besides, I also want to meet my grandfather.

Then it's the time of the Chinese New Year.

Before I do that, I have to go to my aunt first.

On this day, I made a mink rabbit and took it to the east courtyard.

"Auntie, Yao'er has come to deliver something to you. The snow particles are quite large, and I just made a rabbit to lie down, so I quickly sent it over. It's definitely warm. ”

The aunt was very happy to take the rabbit and look at it carefully, and touched the mink fur on the rabbit's bed.

"Auntie try it."

The aunt put the rabbit on her head, which showed her luxury.

"Yao'er's hands are so skillful, or my daughter feels sorry for me."

I held my aunt's hand: "I don't have my father and mother by my side now, isn't my aunt just like my mother?" It is appropriate to be filial to children. “

My aunt looked at me with emotion and immediately ordered, "Xue Ying, bring the milk and almond cheese boiled in the kitchen to the third lady." “

I said, "Thank you, aunt, a few days ago, my aunt said that she would take over my mother's dowry, what does my aunt think?" “

"I don't feel at ease with your aunt, but the dowry is in my hands, and the name is not right, not to mention that your aunt is also the head of the second room. I can't say anything either. Don't worry, Yao'er, if she has the slightest bit of greed and delusion, don't blame me for being unkind. “

"Aunt, I'm also old now, do you think the dowry can be sent directly to my name?"

"That's okay, but your aunt has this intention now, and I will do it again. Nowadays......"

"As long as my aunt agrees, I think the rest of the matter will go well."

"Well, I don't care. When the time comes, it will be up to you to do it, and it would be great if you could find a reason for the dowry to be in your name. It's all your stuff. “

"Thank you, aunt, aunt is tired of this time, I'll give you a beating." I was happy and felt that the rest of the matter would be much easier. With the support of the big house and the support of my grandfather, plus my later planning, this will definitely be done.

After returning to Tanghua Courtyard, I asked Xue Yun to polish my ink, and decided to give Mu Yi a letter, and asked Mrs. Xie to talk to my mother's uncle, Qu Fuzi, about my affairs first. I have a plan for me to visit my grandfather's house.
