Chapter 30: The village chief asks for help
Gu Xiuyuan arched his hand apologetically, "Let you see and laugh!" That's my cousin, an hour older than me, he has been frail since he was a child, fostered under the name of Master Hongzhi, every 15th day of the new year to go to the temple to fast for a few days, today I accompanied him, I happened to meet you. I heard that your silk has come out? ”
Gu Xiuyuan doesn't look at his young age, he speaks no less than an adult.
Meowth nodded, "Well, okay, I just want to ask, what you said at the beginning......"
Gu Xiuyuan smiled, "Of course count!" It's just that I don't understand that. In this way, I will ask Liu Zhuangtou to give you the address, and you can send it directly to the store, and I will write you a letter in a while, and when you hand over the letter to the shopkeeper, they will naturally understand. ”
When the brother and sister heard this, they hurriedly thanked them, and they didn't dare to bother more, so they came out after saying two more words.
Miao Qiang took two deep breaths, patted his chest, and said, "Sure enough, it's a child from a big family, looking about the same age as me, and that momentum seems to be more terrifying than my father!" ”
Meow Meow smiled and didn't speak, the children of the family, since birth, have been exposed to all kinds of education, can they not be outstanding, but there are exceptions, such as those gentlemen, and for example, the boy in the monk's robe!
Although he only said a few words, he could also see that he was a spoiled child, and he should stay away from him in the future!
Meowth thought to herself.
After Miao Qiang finished speaking, seeing that his sister didn't speak, he asked again, "Meow Meow, what did the young man in the monk's robe mean by what he told you?" ”
Meow Meow shook her head, "I don't know, but he is not as good as that Young Master Gu, so stay away from him in the future!" ”
Miao Qiang also felt so, nodded, and said with emotion, "You say, what kind of family did they have to be born in?" ”
"Whatever, let's sell our silk, as long as he gives money!" Meow Meow thinks that the simplest and purest relationship between people is the relationship of money.
Back at home, after Miao Dahai heard about it, Zhang Luo went to the village chief's house to borrow a donkey cart and enter the city early tomorrow morning.
Meow Meow has not been to the capital of this dynasty since he was reborn, and I don't know if it's the same as in his previous life.
Miao Fu saw the desire in his sister's eyes and discussed his father, "Dad, let's take my sister this time!" This silk is all the credit of Meow Meow! There is also a second brother, he settles accounts quickly! ”
Miao Dahai thought about it, "Okay! ”
Meow Meow and the second brother jumped up happily.
Miao Kang was holding the book that his sister borrowed for him from the Jokhang Temple on the side, and he couldn't hear anything outside the window!
Miao Le pouted and was unhappy, but he didn't dare to say anything.
Meow Meow took the fourth brother's hand and comforted, "Fourth brother, what do you want, when you have money to sell silk, I will ask my father to buy it for you!" ”
Miao Le secretly glanced at Miao Dahai, and seeing that he didn't refuse, he said happily, "I want a slingshot!" ”
"Good!" Meow Meow happily agreed for her father, which made Miao Dahai and his wife laugh secretly.
After dinner, Miao Dahai went to the village chief's house.
Because of the locust incident last time, the village chief liked Miao Dahai's family even more, and when he heard his voice, he hurriedly greeted him, and led him to the backyard to set up a car without saying a word.
"I heard that your family's silk is not missing this time?" The village chief was chatting with Miao Dahai while leashing the donkey cart.
Miao Dahai's dark face was full of smiles, and he scratched his head innocently, "Uh-huh! A few kids are capable, but they don't use me much. ”
The village chief sighed when he heard this.
Miao Dahai smiled, a little cautious, but the village chief regained his smile in a blink of an eye, "Yes, your husband and wife's children are well educated, unlike ......."
Miao Dahai smiled bitterly and shook his head, "It's good that I can take care of letting them fill their stomachs, where is the discipline." Village Chief, you are ......"
Miao Dahai saw that the village chief seemed to have something to say, so he asked.
The village chief shook his head and handed him the reins, "Forget it, don't talk about it, every family has a scripture that is difficult to read!" You can use this donkey cart, don't be in a hurry to return it, don't forget to feed it the grass! ”
"Hey! You can rest assured, you will be fed to your heart's content! Miao Dahai saw that the village chief was reluctant to say, so he didn't ask.
After Miao Dahai left, the village chief went back to the house.
His daughter-in-law hurriedly asked, "Did you say that?" ”
The village chief shook his head, lit a bag of dry tobacco, and said nothing.
The village chief's daughter-in-law sighed, "The Dahai family is honest and strict-mouthed, and there is nothing to worry about." The eldest of our family is stupid, and he has to be bullied back if he goes, and the second child listens to his daughter-in-law. I also really feel sorry for our daughter....."
As she spoke, the old lady wiped away a handful of tears.
The village chief took a hard puff of his cigarette, "I'll go and tell the sea tomorrow morning to bring Hongmei and Qiao'er back!" ”
The old lady was a little happier.
Early in the morning of the second day, Miao Dahai loaded the car, Miao Fu picked his sister into the donkey cart, and Miao Qiang deliberately found a thick mat for Meow Meow to sit on, for fear that she would be upset.
Li Cuihua kept telling the brothers to take care of their sister.
As he spoke, the village chief came.
"Village chief, what's wrong with you?" Miao Dahai handed the reins to Miao Fu and invited the village chief into the house.
The village chief nodded and patted him on the shoulder, "There's something I want to ask you for help with." ”
Miao Dahai said excitedly, "Village chief, if you have something, just ask for something, what do you ask for!" ”
Li Cuihua had great insight to spread the children apart, and said with a smile, "Village Chief, you said that you will see the outside when you ask for words, and you have helped our family a lot over the years." ”
The village chief smiled bitterly, which explained the intention.
It turned out that the village chief's youngest daughter was named Wang Hongmei, and she married into the Guo family in the county at the age of sixteen.
The Guo family runs a small workshop, and life is prosperous.
After Hongmei arrived at Guo's house, she served her husband, was filial to her in-laws, hardworking and capable, and was really liked.
But in the past seven years, except for only one daughter, Guo Qiaoer, there has been nothing to do.
Gradually, the Guo family had a whisper.
So much so that a year ago, the son of the Guo family spoiled his concubine and killed his wife, and secretly raised his wife, and Wang Hongmei was reduced to the point of being a subordinate.
Afraid that her parents would be sad, Wang Hongmei endured it and didn't say anything, no, a few months ago, the second son of the village chief, the second daughter and the second girl, went to live at her aunt's house, and found out.
In the past few months, the village chief and his wife have been sad for their daughter, and after several twists and turns, they finally reconciled with the Guo family.
In the past few days, I planned to go into the city to pick up my daughter, but it was difficult for anyone to pick it up.
Wang Hongmei felt sorry for her father and said that she wouldn't let the village chief go, but Wang Dali's second dog, one was dull and wooden, and the other listened to his daughter-in-law and didn't want his sister-in-law to come back.
Just like the village chief's daughter-in-law said, Miao Dahai is honest and has a lot of strength, and he will not be bullied by the Guo family if he goes.
When Miao Dahai heard this, he happily responded.
The village chief finally saw a knowing smile on his face, rubbed his hands and said, "Then you can replace this donkey cart with a horse-drawn carriage, Hongmei still has some dowry to bring back." ”
So, Miao Dahai drove the donkey cart to the village chief's house to change the carriage, and the four of them set off.
