Chapter 107: Coercion

Jiao Shi was still a little worried: "Qian'er was suspended. ”

Qian Xiangui shook his head: "It's okay." ”

He hurried back to the county seat on the same day, and quietly asked people to send a letter to Gou Ping'an, the eldest brother of Gou Dian.

Gou Dian's eldest brother is in his fifties, the eldest son Gou Jianghu is also thirty-seven years old, the eldest son is eighteen, only two years younger than Qian Wenqian, he is short, and he has a red rosacea nose, I heard that Qian Xiancheng is willing to marry his daughter who is only twenty years old and looks middle-looking, I don't believe it, I tried to let the matchmaker come to the door, but I didn't expect that although I didn't agree, but the tone was not resolute, this was just the woman expressing reserve, he was ecstatic, where did he care how Qian Wenqian went back to her mother's house.

This Gou warden is in charge of the prison in Shanyang County, it is Qian Xiangui's top boss, his father is a warden, father and son two generations are entrenched in Shanyang, whether it is catching the head and catching fast, or the relevant officials in the yamen, he has to give him three points, before, he and Wang Shenhai fought for power and profit, the relationship was very stiff, Qian Xiangui was installed by the Wang master, he was restrained everywhere, and Qian Xiangui suffered a lot.

Qian Xiangui really wanted to make friends with Gou Dian, invited guests to dinner and gave gifts, and the whole set of knotting methods was used, Gou Dianguan was reluctant to be kind to him, but he gave a good face if he could use it, and he abandoned it if he didn't use it. He has always wanted to change this situation, and now, he finally has a way, as soon as the marriage is confirmed, he immediately comes to inform Qian Xiancheng.

My brother's daughter was dismissed, or because of immorality, Qian Xiancheng walked with his head down these days, if it wasn't for the busy farming, he would definitely hide at home and not go out, which is really embarrassing. Now, when I heard the eldest brother say that his daughter would remarry, he was already stunned, and the elder brother actually had the face to set up a banquet for them and his wife to prepare a gift.

"I'm not going." Qian Xiancheng whispered.

"What did you say?" Qian Xiangui didn't hear it, he was shocked that the second brother dared not to give him face, and this rhetorical question also brought a lot of coercion, in order to force Qian Xiancheng to be obedient.

"I'm not going." Qian Xiancheng didn't dare to look at Qian Xiangui's aggressive gaze, lowered his head and muttered, "Sissi is uninvited, it's shameful enough, how can you have the face to put on a feast?" ”

"Second child, are you saying that my daughter has embarrassed you? How dare you dislike me! ”

Qian Xiancheng lowered his head and said nothing.

"Do you know who Sissi marries?"

Qian Xiancheng didn't speak.

"Her uncle is the warden of Shanyang County." After saying this, Qian Xiangui stared at him with blazing eyes, he thought that Qian Xiancheng, who was timid and afraid, would definitely be frightened and change his attitude immediately.

Qian Xiancheng still lowered his head.

"Tell me, will you go then?" Qian Xiangui thought that the second brother had a good face, and he couldn't wipe his face for a while, so he was embarrassed to change his tone.

"I, I, I'm not going."

"You dare!" Qian Xiangui was furious and slapped the table suddenly.

Webster had just avoided going out and was drying the futon in the yard, and the sound made her tremble with fright, and she almost dropped the quilt on the ground. She hurriedly put the quilt on the rope, turned around and entered the house, and saw her man bowing his head and waist, and the eldest uncle kneeling straight on the kang, glaring angrily at his younger brother.

Wei Shi is not a person who can cope with the scene, and he doesn't know what to say at this time, Wen Jin silently accompanied the second aunt over, Wei Shi gently supported the man, trying to make him puff up his chest.

They are upright in the second room, why can't they straighten their waists? Shame is also a shame for his big house.

Qian Xiancheng just felt aggrieved at this time, and was not afraid of Qian Xiangui, although the woman is hand has little strength, but with warmth and confidence, with understanding and support, he made his mood very stable, he really straightened his waist, his eyes flashed, but his expression resolutely met Qian Xiangui's gaze: "Qian Qian remarries, I will not go." ”

Qian Xiangui was shocked and angry, his eyes flickered, and he looked sad for a while: "Qian Qian was wronged by the Wang family, and she returned home like this, do you know how bitter she is in her heart?" That's worse than death. You are her second uncle, her elder and relative, not to mention avenging the child, not planning for her future, but here you take care of yourself and your reputation, and you don't even want to attend her wedding, do you still have a heart? ”

Qian Xiancheng's eyes widened suddenly: "Qian Qian said that she was wronged?" Then why don't you go to the Wang family to reason? ”

"What if you are reasonable? It's nothing more than going back to that poor and broken home to be a yellow-faced woman, and I'll find a better one for Sissi, which is good for her. ”

Qian Xiancheng shook his head suddenly: "If Qianqian is wronged, we will give her justice, and then go to the yamen to ask for peace and leave, and marry again in an upright manner, isn't it more glorious?" ”

Qian Xiangui pouted: "It's not too troublesome." ”

Qian Xiancheng couldn't bear it anymore, and his angry voice became sharp: "You are doing things in the Yamen, the Wang family just wants to have a wife, and they don't dare to use such a shameful name, I went to Xiaowangzhuang to inquire, although the Wang family is not a big portal, but it also invited the patriarch and the village Lizheng, and there are witnesses present, Qianqian, Qianqian was almost caught and raped in bed, I, as an uncle, don't figure things out, how can I allow someone to buckle the basin on the head?" Big brother, Sissi got married, I've already been there, you shouldn't come over to invite me again this time, I, I don't have this niece. ”

Qian Xiangui was peeled off, he was ashamed and annoyed, his face was as swollen as a pig's liver, he sat there, his eyes rolled several times, and then he said without giving up: "You want to cut off relations with me?" ”

Qian Xiancheng's tears surged up all of a sudden, and even his voice trembled: "I just want our family to be harmonious and beautiful, and love each other, but, what did I do wrong?" What did I do wrong, God is so persecuted-" Big tears fell from Qian Xiangui's eyes, he was sad tears, disappointed tears, he made compromises, let go again and again, or was so stubbornly stabbed in the heart by others, how could he be embarrassed?

The man has tears and doesn't flick, but he hasn't reached the sad place, Qian Xiancheng can have no food, no clothes, and being cheated, he doesn't feel so sad, but the calculations, persecution, and involvement from his relatives make him physically and mentally exhausted, sad and uncontrollable, he really can't help it, choked up.

Webster wrung a cloth towel in the basin and brought it to wipe the man's face

Qian Xiangui didn't expect the second brother to be so emotional, he didn't care whether Qian Xiancheng went or not, but he cared about Qian Xiancheng's gifts, as well as the duck, fish, rice, etc. You have to have a banquet, right? If Qian Xiancheng can get out of the water, his cost will be much smaller.

"Second brother, don't cry, it's all the eldest brother's, I won't say this anymore, don't cry." Qian Xiangui rarely put on a low profile. Wen Yan comforted.

Qian Xiancheng vented for a while, his heart was not so panicked, he got up and got off the kang, went to wash his face, returned to sit on the edge of the table, drank water cup after cup, and did not say a word.

"If you don't go, you won't go, I can't help it, Sissi, she's still young, can't live because of a moment of ghostly confusion, this time remarry, just because Gou Dian is a decent person, I have to treat, this is not what I mean, but someone wants to take this opportunity to make love to Gou Dian's cousin, you say, I don't invite guests?"

No matter how stupid Qian Xiancheng is, he also knows that this is a pretext, why can't he invite guests, he has to use Qian Wenqian to remarry? It's just that he has always been kind to people and doesn't expose it.

Wei Shi went out with a basin, and Qian Xiangui took the opportunity to say: "Second brother, it's okay if you don't go, then give me a few fish, right?" ”

Before Qian Xiancheng could speak, Wei coughed lightly and signaled that Wen Jin was still by his side.

Qian Xiancheng wants to save face so much, where is he willing to give favors to other people's things in front of his nephew? His lips squirmed several times, and finally shook his head: "No, there are only a few fish left, and they are to be planted." ”

This is the first time that Qian Xiangui has met his second brother who rejected him personally, and his eyes were so angry that his eyes were round, and he hated to burn Qian Xiancheng into powder.

Qian Xiancheng couldn't help but bow his head again.

The nature of the country is easy to change, and his weakness can be regarded as infiltrating in his bones.

Wen Jin looked at Qian Xiangui quietly, she really wondered why someone reached out to take other people's things, obviously begging, just like asking for food, but she could still be so straightforward and aggressive.

Qian Xiangui sensed Wen Jin's meaning, and was so angry that he couldn't kill this "nephew" to relieve his hatred, at this moment, in order to achieve his goal, he must force the second brother again, otherwise, he will run away in vain today.

Last winter, he lost fifty taels of silver, Qian Xiangui was annoyed to this day, this time, he must only accept gifts, not oil, and try to recover the loss.

But when people give gifts, they definitely want to eat back, Qian Xiancheng doesn't want to buy rice and meat, he pays out of his own pocket, he wants to let the second room contribute those.

Wei Shi looked at Qian Xiangui quietly, wondering how he could develop such a thick skin.

Wen Jin has been mentioning her life in the past few years, and Wei's has not grown at all, plus Ge Shi and Wei Chenglan beat the side drums, she also slowly figured it out, people like the Qian family's big house are simply white-eyed wolves who can't be fed, the more you give in, the more you compromise, the more they get worse, they can't eat meat and bed, and they are willing to squeeze everything you have.

Wei Chenglan once analyzed to her sister that every time Jiao and Qian Xiangui asked for something in the second room, they always took advantage of Wen Jin's absence at home, what does this mean? It shows that they are afraid of Wen Jin and dare not fight hard, and at the same time, it also shows that the unprincipled sacrifice of the couple has raised the appetite of Qian Xiangui.

Wei Shi thought about it for a long time before he understood this truth, their concession did not make any sense, but made the big house more and more greedy and more and more unconscionable.

Qian Xiangui was seen by Wei's eyes, and he had never paid attention to the woman in the second room, who was silent and always bowed her head and whispered, to be able to use such a calm eye to force herself into a corner.

Qian Xiangui turned his eyes to Wei Shi and glared at him viciously, Wei Shi frowned slightly, from the exploration just now, to three points of disgust and seven points of disdain, which made Qian Xiangui suddenly annoyed and angry: "Second brother and sister, Qian Qian is married, and the second brother does not participate, you can't help but express it, right?" ”

"Uncle him, I am a woman's family, what do I know, I will do what the head of the family says, as for the gift, when Sissi got married, I gave it all." What she meant, if she remarries in the future, she will not salute.

When the atmosphere in the house was deadlocked, the door suddenly rang: "Sister, brother-in-law! "Wei Chenglan is here.

Back then, Qian Xiangui forced the second room and his family to Shanwo Village, Wei Chenglan once came to vent his anger for his sister, beat Qian Xiangui to a blue nose and swollen face, and had no face to leave the house for half a month, now, as soon as he heard this voice, he couldn't help but feel cold in his heart, knowing that there would be no gain here, Qian Xiangui stood up stupidly: "Second brother, I don't want our two families to go further and further, what happens in the future, it's up to you, farewell!" ”

When Wei Chenglan saw Qian Xiangui come out, she frowned slightly, and looked at her sister inquiringly.

Webster shook his head and motioned for his brother to leave it alone. When Qian Xiangui passed by Wei Chenglan, his feet couldn't help but feel weak, so he walked out of the gate easily, hurriedly got into the donkey cart, hurriedly threw a whip, and went out of the village.

"Sister, he won't still come to ask for something, will he?"

Merriam-Webster smiled wryly.

"Why didn't you just say that? See that I don't make mud with him. ”

Merriam-Webster glanced at the man and realized that the elegance she used to be proud of was now more and more like cowardice. A man like his younger brother is a man.

"Cheng Lan is here?"

"Yes, brother-in-law, I'll stop by Wang's house to see the seedling bed." Wei Chenglan was afraid that the soil quality of Weijiawan was not good, so he was blind to the seeds, so he entrusted several families in Shanwo Village to help raise seedlings, and Wang Han and his neighbor Wei family were the big ones.

"Sister, what is the reason why the Qian family came to the big house?" Wei Chenglan was very dissatisfied with her brother-in-law's cowardice, and she was also very worried, lest her sister be wronged.

Wei Shi glanced at the man, in her heart, she relied more on her younger brother, and she didn't care about any shame at this time, so she whispered the matter.

Wei Chenglan didn't say anything, and after a while, he changed the subject: "Brother-in-law, your land has been cultivated?" ”

"Hmm." Qian Xiancheng has not yet turned away from shame.

"Brother-in-law, how many sheep are there in the house now? Do you want to add more? "A few years ago, except for the head sheep and the ewe, the rest were sold, so Wei Chenglan asked.

"Tim." Qian Xiancheng cheered up at this time, accompanied Wei Chenglan out of the house, and took a turn in the farm.

Wei Chenglan left after lunch, in the mountain nest, he didn't show anything, out of the village, only turned around and went to Linjin Town, although Qian Xiangui threatened him to do things in the yamen, he still didn't escape a violent beating, but he learned to be obedient, desperately holding his head, and there were no scars on his face, otherwise, half a month later is the day when Qian Wenqian gets married, his face is dark, but it will be a big shame.

After all, Wen Jin was worried about the second uncle and the second aunt, and it didn't take long for her to go back to the mountain nest. Wen Han was not at home, she was afraid that the second uncle and the second aunt would suffer a loss of money, and she knew that the uncle of the Wei family had come once, so she was relieved.

She wants to transplant kiwifruit seedlings during this time, and it is indispensable to go back and forth between Shanwo and Shiwei Village, fortunately, otherwise, I can't see that the second uncle is abnormal.

Not only Linjin Town, but even the people in the mountain nest quietly talked about Qian Wenqian being taken home from leave, and the second marriage and setting up a banquet, Qian Xiancheng now, when he goes out, he lowers his head, and he doesn't greet people when he sees them, and the whole person's appearance has changed.

Wen Jin was taken aback, he didn't expect the second uncle to be so thoughtful. Wen Jin is from another world, of course it doesn't matter, seeing that the second uncle's ideological pressure is so great, he has to find a way to solve it.

"Did the second uncle go to the wedding?"

"Nope."

"And whose daughter is she?"

"Your uncle's." Qian Xiancheng was very strange, Wen Jin asked.

"Isn't this over, it's also a shame for your uncle to be ashamed, what are you doing with your head down? Besides, although the uncle forced you to attend the wedding, didn't you go either? Why can't you let go of it for so long? ”

"But, that's also from our family."

"Second uncle, we have separated from the uncle, besides, he passed on to the uncle, and we are further away, you straighten your waist and live like a human being, we will open an ancestral hall here, and the uncle's side will be completely broken."

Qian Xiancheng glanced at Wen Jin, how could it be so easy to open an ancestral hall and establish an ancestral hall, but thinking of his son, he was selected for Xiucai at a young age, maybe he could really be lifted like the third brother, and he immediately had hope. In the entire Shanyang County, people can be counted with one hand, and Wen Han proposed to be self-contained at that time, and no one could stop it.

Thinking of this, Qian Xiancheng's expression finally cheered up.

"Second uncle, you have made up your mind, in the future, you must try to stay as far away as possible from the big house, otherwise, you are used to eating us over there, and you are used to relying on your brother, and I am afraid it will not be easy to break it."

"yes, I see." Qian Xiancheng's face showed a determined expression.

Wen Jin knew that the second uncle admitted death, once he made up his mind, it would be difficult to turn back, and his heart was finally a little relaxed, I hope that the second uncle will be able to hold up the door of the second room in the future and no longer be exploited by the big house.

Qian Wenqian happily got married, and returned to the door in three days, but she didn't want to go with the man.

Jiao Shi was anxious: "How can this be?" Your father knows, and he won't kill you. ”

"Woo, mother, I, my life is miserable-"

"Shut up!" Lao Jiao walked out with a crutch, she accidentally slipped in the winter, and began to crutches, in fact, now it is completely good, when no one is paying attention, she walks fast with a crutch, but still pretending to be garlic, the family life is more difficult than before, Jiao has to work in the field, back home, and have to cook and laundry, really can't work, Lao Jiao does not pretend to be sick, there is no reason not to work.

"Grandmother!"

"Sissi, pack up your things immediately and go back to your house, if you return like this uninvited in the future, don't wait for your father to speak, I won't tolerate you first."

"Woo-" Qian Wenqian heard her father say that she was so happy when she married a rich man, and how sad she was after she got married, her man was old and ugly, not only tall, but also followed in other places, so that she couldn't be satisfied, and besides, Gou Dian's family was quite rich, but his brother Gou Ping'an's family was very ordinary, Qian Wenqian married Gou Jianghu, who had already split up and lived separately, but when his wife was seriously ill, he invited a mother-in-law to do rough work, cleaning and washing every day, cooking and cooking, and it was not a slave at all.

Old Jiao didn't listen to Qian Wenqian's grievances at all, and forced Jiao to hire a donkey cart to send Qian Wenqian back to Gou's house in the county seat. Qian Wenqian found out that in her family, not only her father was ruthless, but her grandmother was better than her father.
