Chapter 19: Master Geng returns home

After eating a tasteless breakfast, Geng Xingshuang went to Ruan's place first, this time Ruan didn't do needlework, but frowned and was thinking about something, and when he saw her enter the house, he showed a gentle smile at her.

"Did you sleep well last night?"

"Okay, no dreams all night, very sweet."

Geng Xingshuang blessed his body, walked quickly to Ruan's side and sat down, and asked, "Did my mother sleep well?" Daddy said when he would come back? ”

Ruan Shi said helplessly: "Now is the spring ploughing time, last year's harvest in the Zhuangzi was not good, your father said that the family's expenses can not use your silver, nor can I use my silver for needlework, so this year's spring, I frequently go to the Zhuangzi, and even the head of the village and a few farming veterans on the Zhuangzi to discuss how to increase the yield this year, the previous two times, each time you have to stay for ten days and half a month, this time I went to just five days, and there are still a few days."

Ruan Shi said, suddenly sighing, "But something like that happened yesterday, I have just written a letter and asked Li Deng to send it to Zhuangzi, according to your father's temperament, he should be back in the afternoon." ”

Sure enough, in the afternoon, Master Geng Wen returned home.

He first went to Yide Yuan to greet his father Uncle Anping, and after coming out of Yide Hospital, he went directly to the main courtyard to greet Mrs. An.

When Geng Wen returned to Qingcui Courtyard, his face was a little dark.

"What's wrong? Did Uncle or Mrs. Uncle say something? ”

Nguyen put down the needle and thread in her hand and got up to make tea for her husband herself.

Geng Wen tried to pull the corners of his mouth at his wife, his tone was slightly heavy, and asked, "What the letter says is true?"

Ruan Shi was stunned by his question, and when she saw that he put on a face as soon as he entered the door, and spoke like a question, she put away the smile on her face.

"Naturally, it's true, don't I have anything to make up such a lie to trick you into going home? Is my brain broken, or am I too idle to find a fight? It's okay for me to make a few more clothes, embroider a few more purses for our daughters to fill the shop, and earn more money, isn't it? ”

Geng Wen saw that his wife, who had always been gentle, suddenly straightened up, and felt that it was the behavior of selling girls and maids in the main courtyard that angered her, so he hurriedly put on a smile and explained flatteringly: "I didn't mean that, I ...... How can I doubt you, it's just ......"

"Didn't you just look skeptical?"

Nguyen interrupted him.

"It's not...... It's not ......"

Geng Wen was not good at words, but when he was interrupted by his wife, he was anxious to explain, and when he saw that his wife was about to speak again, he became more and more anxious, and the more anxious he was, the more he couldn't come up with a charter.

Geng Xingshuang entered the house at this time, and saw that her father's forehead was sweating, and her mother sat there, not looking at her father, but only kept a straight face and did not speak, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet her father.

Seeing that his daughter was coming, his wife's eyes were soft when she looked at her daughter, Geng Wen was slightly relieved, he was really confused by his father and stepmother, and the words he asked were really annoying.

"Dad, did grandfather say something?"

Geng Wen nodded repeatedly, "Isn't it?" After I came back, I went to your grandfather to say goodbye, he said that your second uncle died more than ten years ago in a room, in fact, he did not die at that time, the room was just sick, was sent to the Zhuangzi to raise, the result was that when I went to the room was pregnant, and later gave birth to a daughter, at that time your second uncle knew about it, and reported to your grandmother to know, but when the girl counted the eight characters, the fortune teller said that she had a thin life, and could not support the dignity of Miss Bofu, and needed to be raised in the Zhuangzi until the age of seventeen and then recognize the ancestors and return to the ancestors, so that they can live a safe life. ”

Geng Wen sighed deeply and continued to relay the words of his father, Uncle Anping, "Your grandfather also said that the reason why Shen Shui was a maid by Sister Bing'er was because your second uncle couldn't bear her to suffer on Zhuangzi alone, so he found Tan and asked her to buy a maid in the mansion when she bought a maid, and bought the two-year-old Shen Shui in, otherwise the house would not buy such a young child, and you still need to find someone to take care of it, and it was Tan who took care of Shen Shui at the beginning." ”

It's quite round, such a short time can come up with such a story, and can also shape Geng Cheng into a loving father who cherishes his daughter, the level of this story is really good, if it is written into a book, maybe it can be a big hit, this is much more innovative than the frustrated love stories of poor scholars and daughters sold in various bookstores in Ningdu City.

It's just that it's much worse than Brother Dump's stories that are either heart-wrenching or weird.

No, that's not a level, she shouldn't be compared together, if Brother Pour Mo knows that she compares his pen and ink with the lack of virtue done by the second uncle, even if that handsome face is still calm and indifferent, but he will definitely make a note in his heart, and when he encounters the right opportunity, he will take the initiative to take back what he once said.

"This lie is made up, if it weren't for Jinbao hearing the truth, I might have believed it." Nguyen sighed.

Because of the Geng Cheng they said that the dead Tongfang is indeed a person, it is indeed a person who died more than ten years ago, but the specific year and month, where would Geng Wen, who is the elder brother, deliberately remember the things in the younger brother's room, as for Ruan, she only remembered that the Tongfang should have died before the change of Pillow Chang, and she can't recall the specific time.

The subordinates in the house have been much younger these years, and even if they remember, where do they dare to question the master's words, it is naturally what the master says.

"Girl, what do you want?"

Seeing that Geng Xingshuang hadn't spoken, as if he was pondering something, Geng Wen called out.

"Dad, grandfather told you those words?"

Although Geng Xingshuang felt that this story was well written, but after thinking about it, he felt that there was something strange in it.

Geng Cheng nodded, "Naturally, he told me, I already knew the truth from your mother's letter, and knew that Shenshui was born to Tan's sister, Tan was your second aunt's maid in marriage, but her sister was not, but I don't know if the little Tan family is a good person, or a descendant of the Yao family, or a descendant of other mansions, but it must not be the Tongfang of Geng Cheng's death." ”

Speaking of which, Geng Wen was a little embarrassed, and felt a little embarrassed to say this to his daughter, but the real situation of the whole thing was found out by her daughter, and in the past few years, the big and small things in the family, the girl not only participated, but also helped to make ideas.

Speaking of which, he and his wife are the kind of brains that can only see the surface of many things, unable to think about deeper things, and often suffer losses and have not yet realized it.

So unconsciously, almost everything will be told to the girl, and this time is of course no exception.

"Dad, this matter has a great impact on me, don't worry about the second uncle and hide it from me."

Geng Xingshuang saw his father's embarrassment and opened his mouth to emphasize.

"How much of an impact? Wasn't half of the scroll redeemed by your uncle? Don't worry, if your grandmother still wants to sell half a roll, I will go directly to your grandfather and hand over the half roll of the deed to you for safekeeping, although your grandfather is not willing to take care of the affairs of the family, I will go to him, and I can always make him speak. ”

Hearing this, Ruan Shi twisted his face, wanting to say something, but he was worried about whether it was an elder or the last generation of uncles in this uncle's mansion, and swallowed the ridicule that was about to reach his mouth.
