Chapter 389: Talking about wine

After Wang Xiulian was busy for a while, she was about to walk into the house, when Uncle Wang, who was sitting under the eaves, beckoned to her and said, "Xiulian, come over and talk to grandpa." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"Grandpa, you wait. Wang Xiulian was in a good mood at the moment, so she entered the house, and came out again after a while, but she was holding a pair of semi-finished new shoes, as well as needles and threads, broken steps, etc., moved a stool, sat down next to Uncle Wang, and buried her head in picking up the needle and thread, and tied it up to the new shoes one by one.

Uncle Wang glanced at the busy work in her hands a few times, and said, "These shoes are not the right size, grandpa can't wear them." ”

Wang Xiulian's pretty face was slightly red, and said: "These shoes are made for the owner, the owner will go out to study in a few days, Xiulian wants to hurry up and send it to the owner, grandpa's new shoes, and wait for Xiulian to finish this pair before making it." ”

Uncle Wang took a slow puff with a cigarette pipe, and asked slowly: "Is the matter between the owner and the Qiao family in Taozhe Village yellow?"

Wang Xiulian was stunned when she heard this, hummed softly, and said, "It should be, it should be." ”

Uncle Wang glanced at her, and said meaningfully: "There is no Qiao family in Taozhe Village, there are other Zhang families, Li families, Wang families, and the East family are now in Xiucai, but these ten miles and eight towns are fragrant." ”

When Wang Xiulian heard this, she didn't say anything, but she still buried herself in dealing with the semi-finished new shoes at hand.

Uncle Wang said to himself: "Xiulian, grandpa said something to you that you don't like, you can't force everything, you have to give up, grandpa knows that you like the owner in your heart, but now that the owner has Xiucai, it is different, it is a Shilin character with status, and our family is different, our ordinary village households, not worthy of others, and the owner does not look down on our village households, we don't have to be shy to climb people's homes, self-deprecation is boring, but tearing the skin, it is not easy to meet." ”

When Wang Xiulian heard this, she was immediately unhappy, raised her head and retorted: "Who said that the owner doesn't look down on the family in our village, the owner is not such a person!"

Uncle Wang took a puff of his cigarette and said, "How do you know? Although people haven't said some things, we should know them in our hearts." Let's just talk about the matter between the owner and the Qiao family in Taozhe Village, when Old Man Gu told me about it, I felt like a mirror in my heart, the owner looked down on our family. ”

Wang Xiulian said: "Grandpa, what are you talking nonsense, to tell you the truth, the owner didn't know about this matter at first, but after he knew, he refused." ”

Uncle Wang showed a thoughtful look and said, "It's the owner who refused......"

Wang Xiulian said: "Of course, grandpa, what do you think, Gu Bo was alone in Zhang Luo from beginning to end, and the owner didn't know, so he didn't agree to this matter after he didn't know." ”

Uncle Wang glanced at the other party and said: "The owner doesn't agree with this, it doesn't mean that he takes a fancy to our family, the owner doesn't even look down on a big family like the Qiao family, let alone a small family like us. ”

Wang Xiulian shook her head and said, "Grandpa, how can you say that about the owner, I said, the owner is not such a person! He, he doesn't look down on our family or anything......

Uncle Wang took a few puffs of the cigarette pipe, and said: "Grandpa just gave you a reminder, I have a good number in my heart, if the owner finds another high-ranking family in the future, you don't want to be too surprised, according to grandpa, you still die of this heart, and find a real person ...... steadily."

Wang Xiulian was not happy, so she got up and said: "Grandpa, don't say it, Xiulian, Xiulian will not marry if she is not the owner in this life!

Uncle Wang sat there motionless for a long time, just inhaling dry tobacco, and finally seemed to have made a decision, stood up, took a handful of fresh mushrooms just picked from the mountains from the corner of the house, and walked out of the house, towards the courtyard of the Jiang family's house.

Came to the front of the courtyard of the Jiang family's house, entered the courtyard, there was no one in the yard, a side room next to it was lit up, the door was not closed, Uncle Wang walked over, and at a glance saw Youlan in the room sitting at the table, with her hand on her chin, looking at the book under the lamp with relish.

"Little Lan girl!" Uncle Wang stood under the porch and called softly into the room.

Youlan, who was looking at the book, looked up when she heard the sound, and saw Uncle Wang standing outside the door, so she hurriedly got up and walked out, and greeted, "Grandpa Wang!

"Miss Xiaolan, you're reading, it's good to read, the girl's family reads more books, and if you know how to be well-mannered, you can marry a good family in the future!" Uncle Wang said flatteringly.

Youlan said with a grimace: "It was Gongzi who told Xiaolan to read more books at ordinary times, and since Gongzi ordered it, Xiaolan had to obey." "If Jiang Yun knew that this girl was reading the legend of the Condor Heroes bought from the bookstore, I was afraid that she would vomit blood in anger.

"Yes, Grandpa Wang, is there anything wrong with you?" Youlan asked again.

"No, it's fine. Uncle Wang handed over the mountain mushrooms he brought in his hand and said, "This is just picked from the mountains in the morning, and I gave it to the owner to taste." Youlan stretched out her hand to take it and said, "Thank you, Grandpa Wang." ”

"Yes, is the owner there?" asked Uncle Wang again. "Grandpa Wang has something to look for Gongzi, then I'll call Gongzi. Youlan said, and went to the back to find Jiang Yun.

Gu Bo walked out of the wing room on the other side at this time, saw Uncle Wang in the courtyard, greeted him, and asked Youlan what was the matter, Youlan told: "Grandpa Wang has something to do with his son." ”

Gu Bo thought for a while, and then said: "Don't bother the son first, yes, you go to the kitchen to fry a few appetizers, and I will have a few drinks with Uncle Wang." Youlan agreed, and went to the kitchen to make a fire and stir-fry.

"Uncle Wang, sit in the house, let's have a few drinks this time. Gu Bo walked over, his attitude seemed very courteous, let Uncle Wang into the hall, and sat down.

Uncle Wang actually didn't want to drink this wine, he was looking for the owner, but not the old man Gu, but Uncle Gu was very gracious, so he had to sit down.

Gu Bo took out the wine and filled the cups for the two of them, and after a while, Youlan also fried a few plates of side dishes with wine and brought them up, and the two of them chatted while drinking here.

"Xiulian is a rare good girl, virtuous and capable, which of these ten miles and eight villages does not praise when you see it, Uncle Wang, you have such a good granddaughter, what a blessing." While drinking, Gu Bo began to praise Wang Xiulian.

Uncle Wang didn't know what medicine was sold in the other party's gourd for a while, so he didn't squeak much at the moment, just drank stuffy wine.

Seeing that the other party's interest was not high, Gu Bo thought that the other party still had mustard in his heart because of the previous incident, so he raised his cup and said: "I was confused before, and I didn't know about Gongzi and Xiulian girl, so I did a foolish thing...... This glass of wine is to make amends to you and Miss Xiulian, Uncle Wang, and I will do it first. ”

As he spoke, he dried the wine in one go. Uncle Wang was inexplicable when he heard it, he did have a mustard in his heart, this time he came to the Jiang family, he also wanted to completely solve this matter, and wanted to get a clear word, at this moment, he still felt a little surprised to see Gu Bo take the initiative to make amends to himself.

He didn't pick up his wine glass, but said: "Steward Gu is serious, you and the owner are not wrong, if you want to blame, you can only blame Xiulian's girl, she is not self-sufficient, she is delusional, and she has caused trouble for the owner......"

"In this way, Uncle Wang is unwilling to forgive the old man, then I will continue to punish the wine until the punishment is until Uncle Wang forgives, how about it. Gu Bo went to pour wine again, Uncle Wang stretched out his hand to stop him, and said: "Steward Gu doesn't have to be like this, Xiulian and I really don't blame the owner, nor do we blame Steward Gu, it's all fate, I can only blame Xiulian, this girl doesn't have that blessing......"

Gu Bo heard something wrong, looked at the other party and said, "What do you say about Uncle Wang, you, don't you agree with the matter of Gongzi and Miss Xiulian......"

Uncle Wang also didn't understand, and asked puzzledly: "What is the matter between the owner and Xiulian?"

Seeing the other party's puzzled expression, Gu Bo was also puzzled and asked, "After Miss Xiulian went back, she didn't tell you about this?"

Uncle Wang still looked confused, and said, "Xiulian, she said, the matter between the owner and the Qiao family in Taozhe Village is yellow?

Gu Bo asked again, "Did Miss Xiulian say anything to you?" Uncle Wang shook his head and said, "It seems to be gone." Gu Bo asked again, "Then Uncle Wang, why are you here now?"

Uncle Wang looked a little embarrassed, and said: "I, I'm looking for the owner, asking, asking someone who understands, I, I'm afraid that Xiulian, this girl, has really walked into a dead end, how to live well, I have to let the owner personally persuade her." ”

Gu Bo finally understood, it seems that Wang Xiulian's face is tender, and she hasn't told her grandfather the truth yet.

He smiled, didn't go around in circles, and said directly to the other party: "Uncle Wang, don't you know, Gongzi and Miss Xiulian are in love, this matter has been done, and soon the two families will be a family!"

Uncle Wang was taken aback when he heard this, felt a burst of surprise, and asked, "Steward Gu is serious, isn't he joking, playing with the old man." ”

Gu Bo said: "Look at what you said, such a marriage event, how can it be a child's play, how can I joke with you and play tricks on you, this thing is true, it can't be fake, just wait for your words, the family will prepare a dowry and come to the door to propose." ”

"This, this...... How could this be...... "After Uncle Wang heard this, he was shocked and surprised, feeling that the news came too suddenly.

"Why, could it be that Uncle Wang is not happy about this family affair and looks down on the Jiang family?" Gu Bo said.

Uncle Wang waved his hand again and again and said: "Don't misunderstand Steward Gu, how can Lao Er look down on the owner, if this is the case, Lao Er will be happy." ”

Don't say that his granddaughter has already pounced on the owner, just look at the owner is already a talented master, even if his granddaughter is not happy, he has to persuade her to be willing, his granddaughter can marry the owner as a showy wife, what else is he unhappy about.

When Gu Bo saw it, he smiled and said, "Uncle Wang opened his mouth and agreed to this matter, so this matter is settled." ”

The good thing came too suddenly, but Uncle Wang was still suspicious at the moment, and felt unsteady for a while, after all, this old man Gu had a lesson from the past, it is said that he had made a marriage with the Qiao family in Taozhe Village, and this old man Gu was in charge of himself, and he didn't inform the owner at all?

He was like a mirror in his heart, what the old man Gu said actually didn't count, in the end, the owner had to nod his head in this matter, if the owner didn't agree, this matter would have to be yellow, and he would be happy.

"Why, does Uncle Wang still have any worries and difficulties, if there is anything to say, just say, how much is this bride price, Uncle Wang just asks, the family should try their best to satisfy, in short, they can't treat Miss Xiulian badly. Seeing the doubts in the other party's expression, Gu Bo said half-jokingly, half-seriously.

"It's not this, Steward Gu, don't get me wrong!" Uncle Wang hurriedly waved his hand, if his granddaughter can marry into the Jiang family, what kind of bride price does he want, even if the Jiang family does not have this bride price, his granddaughter will also marry.

After a pause, he asked directly: "Dare to ask Steward Gu, what does the owner mean by this, this matter, but he has already agreed to it personally?"

Seeing the other party's concern, Gu Bo finally understood what the other party meant, and immediately said: "Uncle Wang, don't worry, this matter is a certainty, and you don't have to run away." ”

"But the proprietor has already agreed personally?" asked Uncle Wang persistently.

Of course, Childe naturally agreed. Gu Bo leaned over again and whispered a few words in the other person's ear.

Uncle Wang listened, but he was stunned, and said, "Steward Gu, what you said is true......

Gu Bo said: "How can I talk nonsense about this matter, ruining the reputation of my son-in-law and Miss Xiulian? This thing is true, Youlan and this girl are all present." ”

Uncle Wang listened to it and believed it, and this heart finally fell back into his stomach, it turned out that the owner liked Xiulian, then this matter was true, this family affair was completed, and his heart was also full of joy and joy, and his face was glowing.

What Gu Bo told him just now was that he and Youlan were in the garden before, and they saw Jiang Yun and Wang Xiulian being intimately together, and after hearing this, Uncle Wang was completely relieved, and the only remaining worries disappeared.

This girl, obviously a good thing with the owner has been done, but she still wants to hide it, so I can worry about her in vain. Uncle Wang was in a good mood at the moment, and his sorrow was gone, so he talked and laughed and drank with Uncle Gu.

"Steward Gu......" Uncle Wang raised his wine glass and wanted to salute the other party.

Gu Bo waved his hand and said, "Don't call it that, it's almost a family, just call me by my name." ”

Uncle Wang said: "How can this make the etiquette not be abolished, the identity and status of the Gu steward are here." ”

Gu Bo smiled and said: "When the two children become relatives, Uncle Wang, you are the father-in-law of the son, that is, the old proprietor, this housekeeper can't stand it, and then the old man will call you Master Wang." ”

"Steward Gu laughed!" Uncle Wang said sneeringly, he would not take the other party's words seriously, he knew that the owner had always regarded the other party and Youlan as relatives, as grandfather and sister. (To be continued.) )
