Chapter 13: The Truth About the Dumb
"Okay, okay, don't cry, if you don't like it, I'll send him away."
Zhou Qi didn't know why, but he was frightened by Wang Youcai, and immediately shouted at the kneeling person.
"Get up! Don't knock!"
After saying that, he didn't bother to care about the king and talented.
After a few brief greetings to the chief, he hugged Su Ling and entered the house.
Wang Youcai, who stood up immediately, looked at his back with resentment in his eyes, and a thought secretly rose in his heart...
No longer caring about his father, nor the shameful laughter of the villagers, he quickly ran out of Zhou's house.
He really felt shameless to stay in the village!
Seeing that his son had run away, the lieutenant sighed heavily, and then said to the villagers gathered in front of the door with a little embarrassment: "Let the villagers laugh!" ”
After that, he thought about it again, and arched his hand towards everyone in front of the door.
"Before, I was my godson who had no way, I'm sorry to everyone, if this rebel still dares to behave like before in the future, the villagers can rest assured to tell me, I will never get used to it!"
The words are full of pride.
The neighbors in front of the door boiled when they heard it, and they grew up to kill their relatives, and he was a rare good chief.
You know, in this era, the economic differentiation is quite obvious, the poor die of poverty, the rich die of wealth, those who are officials and businessmen all oppress the people, and the chief is the person who is in charge of the whole village, although he is not called an official, but it is almost the same, where will he put down his body like this to explain the villagers?
And the chief, in fact, has his own success in his heart, he is originally from a farmer's family, and it is already a great thing to be the mayor here, although the silver is only a few dozen dollars, but who in the village is not respectful when he sees him?
When a person lives to this age, he lives a face, he cherishes his wings very much, and he will never be so confused as to treat the villagers harshly.
……
Zhou Qi and the others who approached the room saw Zhao Cuihua sitting on the bench in the hall at a glance, frightened, patting her chest and exhaling for a long time......
Su Ling relieved himself first and greeted her.
Zhao Cuihua stood up immediately, and asked with a puzzled face, "What happened?" ”
How do you go to the Chang's house, and it seems to have changed when you come out!?
Zhou Qi never expected that Su Ling and Zhao Cuihua would react so much, if he had known, he would not have made such a whole play at all.
I had to tell the two of them about it like this, but I just skipped the matter of the deed.
If his wife knew that he was going to make a deed as proof, I am afraid that she would have to cry this day!
When it comes to collecting pig hair, Zhao Cuihua is the boss with both eyes!
"Where do you get the money? Why did you take that pig's hair? ”
"Mother, pig hair is useful to Lang Jun, Lang Jun can make toothbrushes, and a toothbrush can be sold for four taels of silver!" Su Ling, who had already recovered his god, explained.
Then he added.
"If Lang Jun doesn't have any silver to collect, he can still sell my jewelry, and if it's a big deal, he will borrow it from my mother's house, I believe that Lang Jun will definitely be able to earn this money back!"
Zhou Qi, on the other hand, waved his hand, sat down on the bench, and chuckled: "Look, I've brought up your jewelry again, don't worry about it, the money will be there!" And I don't plan on making my own toothbrush again! Someone will do it! ”
Zhao Cuihua didn't understand anything from the words of these two people, only heard that Zhou Qi could earn four taels of silver, but he didn't plan to do it again!
I was so excited and worried!
"My son, if you really have any money-making business, don't give up!"
"If that toothbrush is really hard to make, you can rely on that stir-fry skill to go to a restaurant in the city to get an errand."
"Otherwise, you wait for the next imperial examination and try again? It's good to obey your father's wish! ”
"You are also a married person, and your mother is still counting on holding her grandson, you have to fight and support your family."
"Our daughter-in-law is from the city, you must not be bitter about her......"
"My mother doesn't need you to raise it, my mother can sew some purses to make money......"
Zhou Qi was stunned when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "Mother, where did you go?" ”
He was afraid that he would not say anything again, and this mother would have to talk all morning!
But she couldn't understand these things, so she simply took out the old routine and took thirty-six plans to go ahead!
"Anyway, I have my own plans for these things, let's go pack up our things and go back to the door first......"
After speaking, he pulled Su Ling back to the back room.
It's not yet noon, and here, you can go back to your home on the second and third days of your wedding, as long as you arrive at your parents' house before noon.
And according to the custom here, the newlyweds have to stay at their parents' house for one night to be considered complete.
Entering the house, Su Ling asked as he walked towards the cupboard, "Lang Jun, are we going back today?" ”
"Well, time is tight, do you have anything to bring back to your parents' house?"
Zhou Qi took out the seven or eight taels of silver from the cloth bag and looked at it, and then stuffed the silver money back into the cloth bag and put it into the inner lining.
After a while, I had to go to the street to buy something before I could go to meet my father-in-law.
"Not really." Sulling paused.
"Lang Jun, I have something I want to tell you......
Zhou Qi turned his head, guessed seven or eight points in his heart, and then sat down on the edge of the bed, looking like he was listening.
"Well, you say."
Su Ling also sat down, was silent for a moment, and spoke in a very weak voice.
"When I get to my mother's house, I won't speak anymore, Lang Jun, don't mention to my father that I can talk, okay?"
Zhou Qi nodded in agreement and did not ask the reason.
He's waiting.
When Su Ling fully believed him, he voluntarily told the reason.
"I was born to a concubine, my biological mother, and a dancing girl......"
Su Ling hung his head, looked lonely, and slowly spoke.
Now that she has already given herself to the man in front of her, what else can't she say?
"My father fell in love with her, and soon became pregnant with me, in order to give my mother a concubine, my father did not hesitate to offend the father of the mother, for which the mother has always hated me and my mother, when I was eight years old, my mother died, and my mother boiled me a bowl of soup, fortunately my sister told me, I did not drink it, otherwise, I am afraid that I will never be able to speak again......"
Zhou Qi was stunned after hearing this, why is this like a house fighting drama!?
In his modern age, he could hear the women in the office discuss these strange jokes, but he was a big man after all, and he didn't know all these twists and turns!
I didn't know how to appease Su Ling for a while, so I had to quietly give her a hug.
"You've suffered."
As soon as he said this, Su Ling hid in Zhou Qi's arms and sobbed.
It felt like catharsis, and I cried very sadly.
"I'm afraid that my mother will harm me again, so I can only pretend to be dumb for ten years!"
"After I got married, I was really afraid that Lang Jun would dislike me, so I couldn't help but talk to you......"
Zhou Qi stroked her hair while frowning and gritting his teeth, his heart was very sour.
He knew that she had something unspeakable, but he never expected to suffer like this!
I thought of an eight-year-old girl, who was the most lively age, but who had to pretend to be mute day and night, and there was no one to speak.
How did she endure that loneliness?
"Do you want to go back?"
