"Wait, you're leaving, it's your niece and nephew and son-in-law who are back, what do you care about me? Could it be that you can't get along in Wujindang, so you can find some silver to go back to spend your flowers? You must know that the last time he Ma Shukui came, our family didn't say anything about Sun Yujuan, and he also lost 500 taels of silver tickets. If they want to enter the Hu family's compound, the two of them have to present some gifts, right? Even if we return the silver ticket we gave us last time! ”

Hu Chuankui stopped, and the eldest lady's words seemed to be reasonable.

He turned around and ordered the old housekeeper: "Butler, call back to the people who come, just Ma Shukui and Sun Yujuan to bring people into the compound." The rest were waiting outside the Hu family's compound. When you go to your mother's house, you don't need to move the people. He brought a large group of people, and those who didn't know thought that they would come to our house to rob it again, and I, Hu Chuankui, would not be able to do it for Ma Shukui. For Sun Yujuan's sake, it is already good to let the two of them enter the door. ”

You said that this Hu Chuankui has no opinion, and whatever the eldest wife says is what it is.

It's not a bad thing to not have an opinion, but you can't be obedient to the eldest lady, right?

In that way, the temper of the eldest wife who shouted to the end, and the capable Sun Yujuan could sit still when she came back?

The old butler thought so in his heart, but he couldn't say it. He had no choice but to ask Hu Chuankui: "Master, do you want me to pass it on orally, or write a reply letter to show your sincerity." ”

"Hey, do you need to take a junior so seriously? Besides, a group of bandits who specialize in robbing homes and houses to make a living, why do they want to be so civilized? Old housekeeper, I think you were frightened by Ma Shukui's last visit, right? Listen to me, if you want to enter the Hu family's compound, you will learn that your mistakes will be corrected. Atonement for sins, admit mistakes and obey the law, and have a correct attitude. Otherwise, not everyone can enter my Hu family's compound. Hmph......"

The eldest lady may be able to see the current Hu family compound, with iron walls, even if a small bird comes, she will never want to fly overhead.

Therefore, the last rude snatching of Ma Shukui has always been fresh in my heart and difficult to let go.

This time, since Ma Shukui took the initiative to ask to come to the door, he had to follow the rules of the Hu family's compound. It stands to reason that there is nothing wrong with the eldest lady's thoughts. The point is that he said that he was coming back to visit relatives, but he only knew that the messenger of the fast horse sent a letter. It is not clear what Ma Shukui meant when he came back with Sun Yujuan, so the eldest lady hurriedly drew conclusions and misled Hu Chuankui, what is this?

The old housekeeper hated Hu Chuankui for a long time, and he always arranged and acted with the eldest lady and the woman.

Moreover, he blamed himself for often finding something out of nothing, and the old housekeeper was fed up.

Simply, he added fuel and vinegar to the comer: "This young master, I've kept you waiting for a long time." Our old lady asked her to say that if Sun Yujuan and Ma Shukui want to enter the Hu family's compound, they must completely admit their mistakes last time and compensate for them, or return the five hundred taels of silver tickets that your boss took from here. Of course, excluding Sun Yujuan's niece, only she is the object that the Hu family compound is willing to give selflessly. ”

When the envoy heard this, his face changed sharply.

He glared at the old butler fiercely, then nodded and hugged his fists: "Thank you seniors for your advice, I'll go back and report." I hope that the old lady's purpose can be approved by the boss. ...... driving"

Fly on your horse and gallop in the direction you came......

The old butler sent the messenger away and looked around.

Next, he did something that Hu Chuankui and the eldest wife couldn't think of. Take a little donkey from the stable, step on it and go. He knew that Ma Shukui and Sun Yujuan heard Hu Chuankui's attitude towards the two of them, so Ma Shukui could be regarded as the number one person in Wujindang. What about the bandits, with the current ocean, it is the king of Hades who is coming, and he has to bow his head three times.

The wealth is abundant, and it is still passed down from generation to generation in the land of China from ancient times to the present.

The family is big and the business is big, that is, it walks the world horizontally. What's more, he doesn't know if Ma Shukui and Sun Yujuan really came to visit relatives. Based on the old housekeeper's understanding of Sun Yujuan, the little girl has not had a good life since her parents died and entrusted her to her aunt's family. Not being favored is another thing, the key is that Hu Chuankui and the eldest wife should not be a family.

Before the envoy left, he deliberately added fuel and vinegar because he was dissatisfied with the eldest lady's words, hoping to anger Ma Shukui. In case, that Ma Shukui was really angered by the words brought back by the messenger, you see, there is Hu Chuankui's good fruit to eat. He rode the little donkey and walked a few steps, and suddenly grabbed the little donkey's reins again: "Phew, hoo! ”

The old housekeeper went straight to the backyard of the Hu family's compound.

"Master, master, I suddenly felt a stomachache, ah, it looks like I can't stand it. Say hello to you, I'll go to the two immortals to grab some medicine. You and your wife are responsible for the affairs of the family. Anyway, your niece and nephew and son-in-law are coming home to visit relatives, and it is of little use for the old housekeeper to stay at home. Hey, sir, I'm leaving! ”

Hu Chuankui was most afraid that the servants would get sick at home, so he not only paid out of his pocket, but also asked them to invite Langzhong, which was very annoying.

"Oh well! It stands to reason that you can't leave the Hu family's compound at this time. How can I be old and sick, in case there are three long and two short, my old Hu family can't afford it. Anyway, you go home and grab the medicine first. As for whether Ma Shukui and Sun Yujuan are back, it's a big deal to ask the kitchen to have a few more side dishes to pass away. But you've got to go early and come back early! Delay the major events of the Hu family's compound, don't blame me Hu Chuankui for turning his face with you. ”

Hu Chuankui was behind his hands, behind him, followed by a large number of maids, so uncomfortable......

"Report ...... Boss, then Hu Chuan asked the old housekeeper to bring a message, asking you and your wife to come to the door in person to apologize for the last incident before entering the room to meet. Otherwise, you and your wife will not be able to enter the gate of the Hu family's compound. I made a hasty inspection, and there were dozens of guns everywhere outside the walls, aiming at our path, eyeing us closely. It seems that Hu Chuankui has been prepared for our arrival this time. Boss, look at ......"

"What am I looking at? Yaya, give Lao Tzu full speed forward. His grandmother's shameless thing, offending my wife is offending me Ma Shukui. Brothers, listen to Lao Tzu, Hu Chuankui didn't recognize my family business, and I, Ma Shukui, also recognized it. However, he did not recognize Mrs. Zhai as his own granddaughter, and it was too much of a deception. Therefore, I, Ma Shukui, temporarily decided to change my relatives to temporary intentions. Take down Hu Chuankui's Hu family compound, give me this bad breath of Mrs. Zhai, I'm not afraid of death, rush forward with Lao Tzu! ”

Ma Shukui was really anxious, but Sun Yujuan wanted to call him to stop, and then he would try it by himself when he arrived at the Hu family's compound.

Ma Shukui's stubborn temper came up, how could it be Sun Yujuan's persuasion.

Bandits, just rely on being arrogant and unreasonable. If you can understand the words of normal people, then you are not bandits. No wonder, people confuse officials and bandits with bandits. In them, indeed, there are very similarities. For example, they don't have compassion and compassion. Except for their closest people, officials and bandits are to protect their own interests for everyone, and they go in white and come out for others. Ruthlessness is the common characteristic of officials and bandits.

Anyway, for misers like her uncle and aunt, Sun Yujuan has nothing to sympathize with and worry about. Thinking of the instructions of their parents to their aunts and uncles before they died, the two of them agreed simply. It wasn't until later that I found out that it was just the gentleness that the two of them deliberately pretended to get their property, coaxing her parents.

Alas!

only hates her parents' short life, otherwise she Sun Yujuan would not have ended up like today.

No matter how good Ma Shukui is to her, he is also a bandit.

In the past, bandits and robbers were feared, but they were always unpopular. It's like the current people who do the things of bandits, pretending to be like ordinary people, which is incomprehensible. In addition to dressing up and disguising, the bad guys of the past will be recognized at a glance wherever they go.

The ragged man staring at the pockets of passers-by on the street is most likely petty theft.

However, when the thieves saw normal people, they were afraid to go further. Although they steal money very quickly, and your wallet is in his pocket in the blink of an eye, they still dare not walk with their heads held high because they are afraid of rich people. Basically, he walks obscenely, and his eyes never dare to look at passers-by.

You're looking at the crowds of people on the street, dressed in crotch pants and watermelon skin hats, swaggering through the city, most of them are the ruffians on the street. This group of people is not doing their jobs, they are idle all day long, and they are lazy to eat. To make a living by eating and taking cards, he specially found some businessmen on the small streets to shout at him and drink five or six, and he wanted to eat, drink and pack cigarettes. Businessmen, in order to do business, do not care about these people, and give them food and drink as alms.

A bandit and robber like Ma Shukui, that's incredible.

In those years, except for the people in the government who could walk the streets and alleys like them, they never shied away, not to mention that they cared about other people's fingers.

Besides, there are a lot of things to poke in the back and spine. As long as you are not ashamed to face to face, no one knows anyone, and no one will know who is and who is not in your heart. Like people now, the human face is beastly hearted, and no one has it written on the face. It is difficult to draw dragons and tigers, and it is difficult to draw bones, and knowing people and faces does not know their hearts.

"Not good, old lady, the group came galloping on horseback, and the shouting of killing was faintly heard."

On the tulou of the Hu family's compound, the family shouted loudly to report.

The eldest lady sat in her chair, and the little maid was beating her back and pinching her legs. Hearing the shout, she got up from her chair, hurriedly scooped up her trouser legs, and climbed upstairs in a dripping stream. Don't look at the eldest lady's rich and slightly fat, she walks like a gust of wind, vigorous and resolute.

"Where? Quick, get out of the way, I'll take a look, I'll take a look! ”

Ma Xiuhua, the eldest lady who wears a set of green backgrounds up and down, plus red lotus polka dot petals, long sleeves and bloomers, walks in a hurry. Doing things in one go is just the biggest problem in life, and there is nothing more than loving money like life. He pampered his children, and to those other than his children, even his own aunt and uncle would never give a meal, or a few taels of silver. The richer the family, the more slamming the door, and the eldest lady is such a person.

is such a ruthless and iron-mouthed mother-in-law, and she actually manages Hu Chuankui, who has a lot of money, to be obedient, don't you say that there is really one thing to one thing in this world.

Without salt and brine, it really can't make tofu.

"Ahh The people carrying the horses in front of them were estimated to arrive in less than a bag of cigarettes. Madam, go and report to the master, or it will be too late. The speaker was a little flustered, and the eldest lady Ma Xiuhua put a hand on her forehead.

In the southwest direction, the shouts of killing are far and near.

It seems that there is no doubt that they came to their house.

In the center of the village, there is no one who has more money than their family.

Ma Shukui took Sun Yujuan to report that he was visiting relatives, his grandmother's, did he bring a lot of people carrying guns and knives?

The eldest lady seemed to notice that something was wrong, and he hurriedly shouted downstairs: "Butler, butler, quickly arrange for someone to prepare for the battle." Ma Shukui, Ma Shukui is not a good stubble to bring people. Walking with relatives, there is no such way to walk. Then did Sun Yujuan's little slut unite with bandits to rob our family's property! ”

The old butler had already fled, and when the eldest lady saw that she couldn't call the old butler, she scolded: "Old butler, you are dazzled and deaf!" I talked to you, why didn't you hear me. ”

The family members craned their necks and went around to help find the old butler.

Hehe, the old housekeeper is riding a little donkey this time, humming a small tune, on the way to Xujialou. He didn't want to stay in Hu Chuankui's house anymore, women are in charge, men will boast, this is the rule.

I don't mean this by sexism.

Rather, it is a social practice that has been obtained over many years. A man is the head of the family. Women, who just manage the day-to-day household affairs, are reasonably different in the division of labor. A little man can call the shots, and a little tanuki can force mice. It vividly portrays the social status and division of labor between housewives and men in the family. It's a pity that Hu Chuankui and his family did the opposite.

The old housekeeper did not run away, he deliberately exaggerated the words passed on to Ma Shukui, mainly to provoke Ma Shukui. What kind of goods Ma Shukui is, the old housekeeper doesn't know. The first time they came to rob Hu Chuankui's house, they were able to escape from Ma Shukui's hands from the east wing, and none of Hu Chuankui's concubines could hide. Fortunately, the eldest wife Ma Xiuhua is in the main house, otherwise it is estimated that she would have suffered.

It's just such a thing, after listening to the words passed out by the old housekeeper, his lungs are not angry, and his old housekeeper has no knowledge.

"Bang Bang, Bang ......"

Behind him, the sound of scrambled guns rang out.

The old butler took the reins of the little donkey and smiled sullenly from the corners of his mouth. He was imagining that the Hu family's compound at this meeting must be very lively.

"Hu Chuankui, Hu Chuankui, you're going to be completely finished this time."

As he spoke, he took out a few gold bars from his arms, grinning with a grin: "Hehe, play with me, you Hu Chuankui can't even look at my old housekeeper's accounts with two more heads, hehe!" ”

"Madam, the old butler is nowhere to be found! Could it be that the old housekeeper accompanied Master Hu to the back garden? ”

Jia Ding reminded the eldest lady.

"Hey, hey, it's all at this juncture, what the hell are you going to the back garden! Someone is coming, go and inform the master, and ask him to arrange for someone to actively meet the battle. Grandma's, this time you can't be successfully attacked by the Ugindang bandits of Rama Shukui. The humiliation of the crotch, the old lady must report it today, his grandmother's! Ma Xiuhua scooped up two big trousers, grabbed a gun from the hand of the family member with her clothes and sleeves, and aimed at the person who was running in front on horseback......

When the family heard the news, they went down the stairs and rubbed on the stairs, and the stairs made a hurried footstep sound.

The roof, a hole where only one person is allowed to enter and exit, restricts the entry and exit of the householders, up and down.

"Smack!"

Ma Dahua really knocked down a person who ran at the front, and the second was Ma Shukui.

He was so frightened that he hurriedly reined in the reins of the horse: "Shhhhhhhh ”

Ma Dahua's first shot was a reminder to Ma Shukui, and he hurriedly took out the Wang Ba box and "snapped" two shots at the sky.

"Brothers, see! Today, he Hu Chuankui is looking for death, so he will rush me. Take Hu Chuankui's head, and my Ma Shukui will reward ten yuan from the ocean, and whoever kills first will get it first. ”

Sun Yujuan sat in the carriage, the carriage was slow, but it was not that the groom was useless.

But Ma Shukui deliberately gave a death order to the groom, Mrs. went to her mother's house with a big belly today, if there is anything wrong on the way, I, Ma Shukui, swear, will take your head to ask questions.

So, the groom drove the cart unhurriedly.
