Chapter 236: Another Person

This was said quite loudly.

Ah He also pulled Li Xin's sleeve in surprise and asked, "Brother Nawei...... Is it really that powerful? ”

Li Xin nodded and said: "Well, when I took the Xiucai exam two years ago, I was about the same age as the sixth brother, and I have been dormant for two years, and I should be more sure that I will go to the state capital in the autumn of this year." ”

Ah He nodded slightly excitedly, and shrunk his neck in embarrassment.

It took a while for Guan Zhicheng to react, and asked incredulously: "Sheng, Shengsheng, Shengsheng...... Five? ”

Guan Wen ignored him, walked up to Guan Ming and said, "Dad, can you give me Ah Mei's Geng Ti Bazi?" ”

Guan Ming also maintained a sluggish appearance with his mouth half-open, and Guan Wen shouted at him again before he could be regarded as calling his soul back.

Seeing Guan Wen spread his hand out in front of him, Guan Ming shook it, took two steps back, and swallowed. saliva said: "I, I didn't bring ......"

"Then Ming'er asked the fourth brother to bring it to me."

Guan Wen didn't chase after him, bypassing Guan Ming to enter the hall, Guan Zhicheng suddenly shouted: "No matter how talented you are, the family has no money and can't give much dowry, big brother, don't be bluffed by his fame!" ”

Guan Wen paused, turned his head to look at Guan Zhicheng.

The "jade crown" on his head was slightly crooked, the green tendons on his forehead were protruding, and his eyes were wide, looking at that face was really hideous.

Guan Wen looked at him silently for a long time, and said coldly: "You mean, it's not much to show off your talents?" ”

"It's not that you are famous, but you can't marry Ah Mei just because he has a talent and fame!" Guan Zhicheng said eagerly: "Even if you are a showman, you may not be promising, you always have to pick the kind of sister from a well-off family to live a good life - what is the future of following a poor and sour show!" ”

Guan Wen looked at Guan Zhicheng with a cold face and said, "Are you looking down on Xiucai?" Then you still paid the money to buy the show to be famous! ”

Guan Zhicheng was suddenly frightened back two steps, Guan Ming hurriedly pulled him to protect him, and looked at Guan Wen with puffed eyes.

Ah He exclaimed, looked at his father and younger brother in disbelief, then looked at Li Xin who was hanging his eyes, and finally looked at Guan Wen. Wisely did not ask the doubts.

The seven brothers and sisters of the Guan family just didn't tell Ah He. Now everyone knows about it.

This can be regarded as poking Guan Zhicheng's weakness, and he naturally doesn't want to bleach himself, saying that he didn't buy fame. Ironclad facts are in front of you. Indeed, he went out for fifty denarii......

Guan Wen looked at him coldly and said, "I haven't asked you yet, how did you get the money, and what happened when you just said about your family?" ”

Guan Zhicheng was speechless for a moment, grabbed Guan Ming's sleeve and forced himself to calm down, and then came to Guan Ming's ear and said a few words.

Then Guan Ming said: "Forget it!" I don't care about Sister's family affairs! I don't care about your family. Don't ask about your sixth brother's family, that's what is called fairness! ”

Guan Wen had a cold face, clenched his fists, and didn't say anything he wanted to say, but said calmly: "Then you go back first, Ah Mei's Geng post and Bazi will be brought by the fourth brother tomorrow." ”

said and reminded him: "Dad, don't blame me for saying ugly things ahead, if you drag it out and don't give it." "Ya-Wen * Yan + Love $ First @ Fa" I went directly to the door to ask for it. ”

The corners of Guan Ming's mouth twitched, he only nodded vigorously, and added with a trembling: "...... Sister's family affair. Dowry or something...... Still, carry it to her father and me......"

said that he seemed to be really frightened by Guan Wen's cold appearance, and hurriedly pulled Guan Zhicheng away, and when he went downhill, he didn't pay attention and stepped on a round pebble, and ran back to the old house with his butt all the way.

Li Xin stood up, frowned and said, "Is the dowry really carried to your father?" ”

Guan Wen sighed and said: "The Wei family must have come to us when they were hired, and after today's incident, it would be okay if my father didn't dare to come, if he still wanted that little dowry to come to the door, just pick some of it and give it to him." It's kind of a hiding. ”

Li Xin was not very happy, Guan Wen walked over and stretched out his hand to put his arm around her shoulder and said: "Don't worry about this matter, he is an elder after all, and it is not good for us to be juniors, otherwise my father will shout two words everywhere, and then the village will say that the two of us are not filial." Send him with something. The picture is quiet. ”

"Then you don't care about your sixth brother's family?" Li Xin looked up at him: "Didn't your sixth brother say that his family affairs are going to be booked, I'm afraid that your father will let you pay again." ”

"He's so capable, let him solve it himself, I'm too lazy to care."

Guan Wen still looked a little annoyed after losing a sentence, and when he saw that Ah He was still looking at them, he didn't say much, so he walked away after a few vague sentences.

Ah He asked Li Xin in a low voice: "Sister-in-law, ...... the sixth brother" Ah He lowered his voice more and more: "The sixth brother's talent and fame were bought with money?" ”

Li Xin nodded, and Ah He sighed in disappointment.

"What's wrong?" Li Xin asked.

Ah He shook his head helplessly and said: "I still expect my mother's family to have a promising brother who can let me rely on, if the sixth brother really has the ability to take the test and come back, I will also have a long face in my in-law's family, and my parents-in-law will definitely treat me better." Didn't expect ......"

Li Xin stretched out her hand and patted Ah He's shoulder, let Yang'er and the two little girls with tearful eyes play by themselves, and said to Ah He: "Don't think like this, everything depends on your mother's family, how do you know that your mother's family is sometimes unreliable." The most important thing is not your mother's family, but yourself and your own family. ”

Ah He nodded, sighed and said, "I also know, it's better to rely on yourself than to rely on yourself......"

"That's right." Li Xin put his arm around her shoulders and persuaded her, "It's best if you figure it out yourself." ”

Ah He still cried: "But, but I counted with my fingers, he hasn't come to pick me up yet, shouldn't he let people stay at his mother's house and don't want to take me back......"

Li Xin comforted her two more words, and muttered in her heart, why hasn't Luo Qiang come to pick up Ah He yet?

After another two days, the matchmaker came to the door of the new house of the Guan family again.

Li Xin politely welcomed her in, and Mrs. Jia said as usual that the Wei family was so good, this time Li Xin didn't push it, and she responded generously. Mrs. Jia was naturally happy, and had a very happy conversation with Li Xin, and learned that Ah He was Ah Mei's own sister and chatted with Ah He for a while.

There is a matchmaker threading in the middle of the betrothal matter, but Li Xin doesn't need to be busy, anyway, it's still early to get married. She can slowly prepare a dowry for her sister. It's just that lately she's been worried about Ah He, and as time passes, Ah Ho seems more haggard and irritable.

Mrs. Jia has gone back, and it is gradually dusk. The sun was setting, and the people in the new house of the Guan family were having lunch in the hall, when they suddenly heard Erhei calling.

Guan Wen put aside his job and went out to take a look, wasn't it his brother-in-law Luo Qiang who came up on the slope!

Luo Qiang looked thinner, and his face was very haggard, looking like he had walked all the way, and he was dusty. It makes people sour when they look at it.

Guan Wenwen wanted to scold him twice, but he still couldn't help it when he saw him like this, and as soon as Luo Qiang saw him, he pulled his sleeve and asked, "Uncle, Ah He is in his mother's house, right?" Guan Wen remembered that when he went to Lijia Village to find his daughter-in-law, he felt more sympathy for Luo Qiang's resentment, and sighed: "At home." ”

When Luo Qiang appeared in front of Ah He, Ah He was simply startled.

Of course, Ah He has always been looking forward to her being in charge, and she has long guessed Luo Qiang's appearance. It's just that she didn't expect that after only four or five days of hard work, how could her man become like this-skinny as if he hadn't eaten several meals. A pair of eyes looked at her and were frighteningly bright.

Guan Wu slapped the table when he saw Luo Qiang and shouted: "Third brother-in-law, you have to be kind, it's been four or five days since my sister-in-law came back to her parents' house, why did you think about looking for it!" ”

Luo Qiang smiled bitterly, Ah Mei took the initiative to go to the stove and took the dishes and chopsticks to add them, Li Xin added food to Luo Qiang, and said, "The third brother-in-law will sit down and take a breath and eat something." He said to Guan Wu again: "Second brother, let the third brother-in-law eat and then talk." ”

Luo Qiang thanked Li Xin and sat down to eat. Although the movement has slowed down, it still looks like it is a little wolf-swallowing.

Guan Wu choked back when he reproached, but his eyes were still a little unkind when he looked at Luo Qiang.

The eldest girl and the second girl pulled Ahe's sleeve and looked at Luo Qiang and called her father. Luo Qiang choked for a moment, answered vaguely, and turned his eyes to eat even more.

"Poor sight. It's been a few times since I ate it......"

The old man smacked twice, and his mouth pursed and sipped. His teeth are not very good, and the food he eats is the softest, and sometimes he has to eat it with a sip.

After Luo Qiang had eaten, there were not many dishes left on the table. Luo Qiang put the bowl aside and said embarrassedly: "I was in time for noon, I was afraid that it would be dark here, so I didn't leave time to eat......

Guan Wen paused and asked, "Why did you come at this time?" The words inevitably carried a sense of reproach.

Luo Qiang looked at Ahe, but Ahe didn't look at her, looking at the threshold of the hall, but his hand was holding the hand of the eldest girl and the second girl, and the two little babies looked at her at a loss.

Luo Qiang sighed, but he didn't talk to Ah He first, and took out a little bit of broken silver from his pocket for a long time before he took out a little bit of silver, scattered and placed it in front of Li Xin.

"This is ......" Li Xin raised his eyebrows in surprise, and Luo Qiang said: "I told my sister-in-law that I made a fifth of the profit." This is the profit for the sister-in-law......"

Li Xin glanced at Ah He, and saw that although she didn't want to come back, she still moved her ears, listening to what Luo Qiang said, she couldn't help but feel sorry in her heart, but she was not polite, she reached out to accept it, and asked Luo Qiang while collecting it: "Didn't your father collect all the money, where did you get the money for me?" ”

Luo Qiang smiled dryly and said, "I'...... I broke up with my father and brother, and it was given from the money that Ah He and I had saved. ”

As soon as he said this, Ah He turned around and looked at Luo Qiang with wide eyes and asked; "What did you just say?"

Luo Qiang said solemnly: "I split up and went out alone." ”

Ah He looked at him stunned for a moment, as if he couldn't react.

Li Xin thought for a moment and said, "Where do you live after the separation?" ”

Luo Qiang was silent, and only after a while did he say, "...... first Moved to my friend's house and was looking for a house recently......"

"You were kicked out by your father?" Ah He suddenly exclaimed, and his voice doubled as loud: "Were you kicked out by your father and have no place to live?" Otherwise, why are you so saving, you don't even want to hire a car when you come to my mother's house! ”

Luo Qiang snorted, sighed and said, "Ahe, don't talk about this......"

This is the Luo family's business, Luo Qiang should have fallen out with his father and was kicked out. He was reluctant to expose his family's shortcomings in front of his daughter-in-law and mother's family, Li Xin also understood, waved his hand and said: "Ah He, you tell your own housekeeper to go, Ah Mei, help your sister-in-law clean up the table." ”

Ah Mei answered, Li Xin gave Guan Wen a look, and Guan Wen said to Luo Qiang: "You are also tired on the road, go and rest first, and talk about it tomorrow if you have something." ”

Luo Qiang thanked Guan Wen and Li Xin gratefully, and pulled Ah He out, and Ah He took him to Ah Xiu's house. The eldest girl and the second girl followed closely behind.

The old man smashed his mouth and said with a smile: "It's good, San'er and her head of the family also came to pick her up, and Xiao Qi's family affairs have also been settled, really the Wang Taoist said it well, this mountain is blessed, and it is a blessing to live for a long time!" ”

Guan Wu helped Lao Guantou back to the house, then fetched water to wash Lao Guantou's face and feet, and came out to Guan Wen after finishing his work: "Big brother, what's the matter with the third brother-in-law that he came out of the house?" ”

Guan Wen said: "This is their Luo family's business, you don't ask." ”

asked Guan Wudao again: "How is the house going?" ”

"The big structure is out and there's still a small place to fiddle with." Guan Wu waved his hand: "Big brother, don't worry about my house, I know over there." ”

"It's good that you have your own score." Guan Wen smiled and asked, "How is your relationship with Xing'er doing now?" Did Aunt Qian help you with it? ”

Guan Wu smiled and said, "Yes, yes, but I still need my sister-in-law's help here......"

Guan Wen nodded, "Your sister-in-law knows, Xing'er has a good relationship with her, and she will definitely help you get things done." ”

Guan Wu smiled, Guan Wen glanced at him and said, "Have you had a happy event recently?" You seem to be having a lot of fun every day. ”

Guan Wu scratched his head and said, "Big brother, your stone land was handed over to the fourth brother, right?" I mean the big rocks. ”

"Well, what's wrong?"

"I know the master of the stone collector contacted by the fourth brother." Guan Wudao: "Big brother, do you remember when I went to the beach of the Dagui River to look for stones and didn't get the money?" ”

"Yes." Guan Wen asked puzzledly: "Didn't the money come back later, but people gave you more money?" ”

Guan Wu nodded and said, "Yes, Master An is very generous and bold." Guan Wu smiled at Guan Wen and said: "The fourth brother contacted the person who got the stone, and the biggest money to buy it was Master An." I only found out from listening to a few men who moved stones that day, and I went to ask the fourth brother, who was really the old man. ”

Guan Wen was stunned for a moment, nodded and said that he knew.

Guan Wen muttered to Li Xin about this that night.
