Chapter 22: Becoming an Old Lady on the Twenty-Second Day

Hu Guangqing lived at home for two days, and people came to visit him every day, and his words revealed the intention of marrying the Hu family.

Fifteen-year-old Xiucaigong, even if he has been a Xiucai all his life, it is better than a cropper who digs in the soil.

Hu Laosan and his wife finally shrewd themselves in their son's affairs - they didn't answer, and pushed the question to the old lady.

There is no shortage of people who come to get married, and they are all arrogant when they refuse.

The old lady said frankly that Hu Laohan had asked a master to approve a "late marriage" for his grandson, and if he wanted to go far in his studies, he must not marry too early.

Whether these words are true or not, people who want to marry have rested their minds. There is no reason to destroy one's future for the sake of one's family. If Hu Guangqing had been a showman all his life, the woman would have to complain.

After deciding not to put the wine on the table, Hu Guangqing also wanted to return to the city earlier. He also has to visit the county government, and he has to move around the academy. Before leaving, Xiao Tian reluctantly grabbed his sleeve to wipe his tears, and his mother was worried, even if she went to the county seat, she was sad to think that she would not be able to see her son for a while.

Hu Laosan was quite happy, grinning heartily. The big husband is ambitious in all directions, and he will do more to do here.

The old lady didn't have to say anything else, and the straight road made him feel at ease to study outside, and she was in the family for everything.

Mrs. Hu couldn't say this before, and even if she said it, Hu Guangqing was not at ease. Now that the old lady said this, Hu Guangqing believed it.

All the way to the entrance of the village, countless people came to see them off, and countless people were envious.

The parting is for the next reunion, Hu Guangqing stood on a high place and waved his hand, and he didn't know what the situation would be when he came back next time.

sent Hu Guangqing away, and the home seemed to be quiet all of a sudden. There were fewer people visiting, and even the roosters crowed.

Before the old lady could feel sad, Cong ran to her and asked quietly, Hu Guangqing has returned to school, should Hu Guangmao's academic arrangements also be put on the agenda?

She wanted to ask this for a long time, no matter how nice she said it, it would be in vain if she didn't do anything. The old lady said that she wanted to send Hu Guangmao to the school, but there was no movement, how could she not be anxious?

After holding it for a few days, seeing that Hu Guangqing was gone, I couldn't help it anymore today.

The old lady's sadness was washed away by her, and when the wind blew, there was no trace.

"Guangmao knows that he is going to enter the academy?" The old lady's eyes narrowed, she hadn't seen Hu Guangmao for a few days, and he would definitely appear if she had anything delicious in her house in the past. didn't dare to dangle under her nose, but dared to talk to Tie Niu.

In the past few days, there has been no movement, is it hit by the news of school?

When Cong Shi heard this, he nodded again and again, and said matter-of-factly:

"Yes, I told him, and he was willing."

Are you willing to stop eating even the delicious food?

The old lady didn't pierce it, and flicked the hem of her clothes, but she was also helpless:

"I originally wanted Guangmao to go with Guangqing, so that he could take care of him."

Cong's eyes were hot when he heard this, and he wanted to say that Hu Guangqing hadn't gone far now, and he could still call him back. The old lady changed her words and broke her mind.

"It's a pity, the second child won't come back."

Cong: "......"

She knew it wasn't that simple!

The old lady crossed Erlang's legs, raised her eyebrows, and glared at her eyes, which were not kind, like a living Hades.

"Cong, you are a smart one, you know what your mother is talking about, oh?"

The rise of the tone made people's teeth itch when they heard it. When did Cong eat this kind of suffocation? But in front of the old lady, she could only hold on.

"One hundred taels is not a small amount, you have to give the second child a little time." Cong flattered and laughed.

Hu Lao and his wife are not fuel-efficient lamps, so they want to drag them over. Anyway, Hu Lao Er has already returned to the city, does the old lady really have the ability to chase him to the city to ask for debts?

The old lady didn't have that ability, but they had a handle in her hands.

"Well, I didn't rush either, aren't you in a hurry?" The old lady was calm and tight, but it was just an implication: when will Hu Lao Er hand over one hundred taels, and when will Hu Guangmao enter the hall.

Cong's expression was sneering, she understood what the old lady meant, for the sake of her son's future...... A hundred taels is not something that cannot be given.

Hu Lao Er hasn't come back yet, Hu Guangqing has just left on the front foot, and the Qian family has sent someone to get back the bride price, as if it was calculated.

Suddenly, when she heard that someone from the Qian family was coming, the old lady glanced at Boss Hu's house. Since he was beaten by the old lady, he has never appeared again. If he hadn't fooled Tie Niu into stealing the clay pot, the old lady really thought that he could change his ways.

I don't know if it's right or not, but the evil has come.

The person sent by the Qian family this time was the young man who had taken the lead before, followed by two followers, and the opening was two thousand taels.

The old lady plucked her ears: "I'm old, and my ears are not good." How much did you just say? ”

"Two thousand taels!"

The young man led by him was indignant, saying that the Hu family owed the Qian family, and the old lady said in public that she would pay back a thousand taels of dowry. Now that so many days have passed, the Hu family wants to withdraw from the marriage, and it has to be two thousand taels of silver.

Good guy, in a few days, one thousand taels becomes two thousand taels, even if it is a loan shark, it does not make money like this.

"The third child, report to the official." The old lady's eyes are like torches, and she will not tolerate them.

Before Hu Laosan could react, the Qian family couldn't sit still.

"What does this mean, old lady?"

The young man stared at the old lady cautiously, his attitude still arrogant, but he was already afraid.

The two behind him were even more restless, just wanting to leave quickly.

They are all peasant men, and they have always admired the official family, and whoever has something to do is to solve it by themselves, and if they are contaminated with the official family, they always feel timid.

The old lady raised her eyebrows, with her own aura.

"What do you mean? Literally. ”

She stared at Hu Laosan and said, "Don't go yet!" ”

Hu Laosan was shocked and hurried out of the house. The Qian family was also afraid that he would call the official messenger, so the two attendants stopped him in three steps and two steps, and the other also wanted to step forward, but was picked up by the old lady.

Hu Lao and the three are tall and big, although they are honest people who never cause trouble, but if someone wants to stop him from obeying the old lady's words, he must not!

Hu Laosan shook his brute strength, and the two little followers who stepped forward to stop him were like grasshoppers shaking a tree.

And the young man who was suppressed by the old lady was even more speechless, the old lady's hand was like iron tongs, he just wanted to wave it away, but he touched the old lady's scales. Before he could wave his hand, he was pinched to the bone; Instinctively kicked him, and the old lady's leg collided with him as if it had eyes.

"Bang!" The young man felt that his leg was going to break, and his arm was broken.

The old lady of the Hu family is evil, he didn't look at the yellow calendar when he went out, he really shouldn't come here!

"Spare your life, old lady." The young man cried and shouted, and the two followers were not far behind.

The old lady grabbed him by the hair, lifted it up, and sprayed at his face:

"I want to cheat my Hu family's money, and I don't pee on what kind of virtue I have. Old lady, when I went south and north to run rampant, you were not born yet. Dare to play tricks with me? ”

As she spoke, she tugged hard, and the young man suddenly felt that his scalp was about to be lifted.

The two followers didn't dare to come out, if it weren't for Hu Laosan blocking the door, they would have run away a long time ago. The Hu family is evil, and the old lady is even more evil.

If you don't run, your life will be gone.

"Don't dare, don't dare. The old lady spares her life, the old lady spares her life. "The young man is ruined and his intestines are green, no wonder Uncle Qian didn't come. When he came back, he didn't come with the Hu family's dignitaries, and he thought that the Hu family was a nest of soft persimmons, but he knew that this was the case, and he ...... He was wrong!

"Third child, what are you doing in a daze, report to the official!" The old lady didn't entangle him.

The young man, regardless of his scalp, hurried to stop:

"Old lady, don't, don't!"

If he reports to the official and doesn't ask for the money back, can he still get it back well? You can't report to the official, you must not report to the official.

The two attendants got a look at each other and shouted for mercy, they were wrong, they were really wrong, they shouldn't have come!

Young people make mistakes and are willing to correct them, and the old lady gives them this opportunity.

She shook the young man away, spread out his clothes and sat back.

"Virtue, change someone who can take charge."

The bride price of the Qian family, she really has to talk about it well.

Finally, the old lady reminded:

"I'm just waiting for an hour, and if the Qian family doesn't come, the bride price won't be wanted."

The three of them dared to be angry but didn't dare to speak, and they supported each other and left the Hu family tremblingly.
