Xiaoyaoshanjun

Chapter 49: Home Front

Dou Niang quickly received the lady who looked dignified and respectable in the main hall.

In terms of dress, Dou Niang is an ordinary person and has nothing to do with being dignified and noble. She is more like Bai Yanhong and Zhang Xia, who are delicate and charming.

Faced with the decent and luxurious clothes sent by Gao, and the compliments and temperament of this lady, Dou Niang soon felt inferior to this woman, just like Zhang Xia and the others.

Gao was well-spoken, dignified, and a lady from a famous family. Dou Niang was extremely envious of her.

After easily dealing with the ignorant dragonfly, Gao looked at the taciturn Tian Buli.

Gao did not talk directly to this kind of person, but looked at Dou Niang.

"Mrs. Hu, the people who harmed the Hu family before were indeed the evildoers of the Xia family. We have already punished them. Those who deserved to die have died, and those who didn't deserve to die have also died."

"The bastard who offended Mr. Tian before has been beaten to death by the owner of the manor. Several disciples and escorts in the manor have also lost their lives in order to protect Mr. Tian."

"The owner of the manor sent me an apology the day before yesterday, and I am sending you an apology this time too. Do you think this is good?"

Dou Niang actually doesn't care about this matter. Hu Yuwei's problems should be solved by Hu Yuwei himself. Now that Dou Niang sees Tian Buli coming back, she no longer wants to cause trouble.

Dou Niang hesitated for a moment, then quickly looked at Tian Buli, waiting for Tian Buli to make a decision.

Although Tian Buli took the things, he didn't say anything.

The damselfly was silent too, not knowing what to say.

Gao quickly looked at Tian Buli, "My dear husband, although I am a woman, I have read a few books, and I know a thing or two about the affairs of the mansion and the scholars."

"The revenge for my father's murder should indeed be avenged. This is a matter of course and no one can stop it."

"But now more than 20 people have died in our village. We should let the dead die, and please don't implicate innocent people. If this continues, not only will our village fall apart, but Mr. Hu will also be left with a bad reputation."

"Mr. Hu's revenge can be taken at any time. Not only can it be taken, but our Fuyuan Escort Agency, the Xia family, and the Gao family all want to resolve this hatred with Mr. Hu and make friends with him."

"It should be a good thing for Mr. Hu to avenge his father. We never stopped him and took the initiative to hand over those criminals, even though more people died."

"I also have a father, and I understand the grievances that Mr. Hu has suffered over the years. We are willing to make more compensation in terms of money and some matters in the mansion. We are also willing to go to the mansion with my husband to apologize to Mr. Hu. Do you think this is a good idea?"

Tian Buli didn't want to get involved and didn't want to make any decisions for Hu Yuwei.

Mr. Hu should make his own decision about his own grievances and revenge.

But after hearing what Gao said, Tian Buli also felt that enough people had died. Mr. Hu would have to continue in officialdom in the future, and it would be bad for him to end up with an entire family being wiped out.

Forgive others when you can, especially when the other party takes the initiative to apologize and make amends from the beginning to the end.

"Okay." Tian Buli sighed and said, "I'll go meet with the gentleman. As for what he says, I don't care."

Gao said gratefully, "That's good!"

With Tian Buli's company, Xia Bayuan and Gao naturally met Hu Yuwei who was studying in the academy.

Tian Buli told Hu Yuwei about Gao's words and asked for his opinion.

Hu Yuwei thought about it for half a minute, finally accepted it, and went to consult his mentor again.

Hu Yuwei's mentor also thought that it would be best to resolve the matter as soon as possible so that he could concentrate on his studies.

Not long after, Hu Yuwei, Tian Buli and others went to Tianjia Village and personally killed the enemy in front of his parents' grave.

Xia Bayuan, his wife Gao, County Magistrate Chen and Tian Buli all stood aside and watched.

Tian Buli glanced at the others, and everyone had a blank expression on their faces.

Death of a person seems to be a very normal thing.

When Mr. Bing was burning paper beside the grave, Gao took the initiative to talk to Tian Buli.

"My dear husband, you should concentrate on studying and taking exams in the future. I think we need someone to help take care of the family. My brother has a daughter who is pretty, talented in both literature and martial arts. She is two years older than you. I will ask her to come over in a while. You can take a look at her."

The bean lady was still standing aside, and it was not easy to speak at this time. County Magistrate Chen glanced over here and said nothing.

Gao obviously wanted to turn the enemy into a friend, but she did not do this to curry favor with Tian Buli. Instead, she intended to help Hu Xiucai solve the problem of face.

Tian Buli is not good at studying and looks more like a stupid warrior. He is obviously not as handsome and promising as Hu Xiucai.

Gao introduced a wife to Tian Buli, so naturally he would no longer have any ambiguous relationship with the women of the Hu family.

Tian Buli didn't think too much about it and said, "I plan to travel for a while and have no intention of getting married for the time being."

Gao asked, "Why are you traveling?"

Tian Buli smiled and said, "I can't calm down in the city, and I've been wanting to go out for a walk, visit the mountains, and study hard."

After hearing this, Gao roughly guessed what Tian Buli was thinking.

"If you want to learn more, I think you should settle down in this village. This way, it will be convenient for you to study. Besides, there are mountains at your doorstep. Why go far away?"

"Besides, if you settle down here, you can go to the city to study at any time. When you pass the examination, it won't be too late to go to the city then."

"The mountain roads here are difficult to walk on and there are few people. Where can you find a quieter place than this? I think you don't need a very quiet place to read. What matters is to concentrate on it."

"When you are young, you should study hard and not indulge in fun. Just like your teacher, you should concentrate on studying and bring honor to your family."

Tian Buli had been planning to go to the mountains to look for the Rabbit Lady, but when Gao pointed casually, he suddenly saw the mountains in front of him.

There are only five or six hundred acres of farmland in this small mountain village, but there are thousands of acres of forest and mountain land.

Nowadays, most of the land in this village is owned by the people themselves, and the rest are either renting it or are landless laborers.

Looking at the mountains in front of me at this time, I suddenly realized that they are steep and majestic, with lush forests, narrow roads, inconvenient transportation, difficult for vehicles and horses to pass, and difficult for people and animals to get water.

The mountains are continuous and what you see is not just one mountain, but also countless mountains one after another.

"That's good. We really need a place to stay." Tian Buli accepted Gao's proposal and decided to settle down in Tian Village to study and practice for a while.

I am still in the stage of growing up. In two years, I will have to take the examination to become a scholar. I need to improve my martial arts and academic knowledge. It is really inconvenient to be alone in the mountains.

Gao not only convinced Tian Buli, but also Mr. Hu and Dou Niangzi.

Dou Niangzi didn't want to hinder Tian Buli's future, nor did she want Tian Buli to run too far, so she agreed to let Tian Buli study in his hometown.

Mr. Hu believed that only studying could lead to a promising future, and he did not want Tian Buli to indulge in women all day long, wasting his health and studies.

If Tian Buli's studies and future were delayed because of the damselfly, Mr. Hu would definitely feel guilty.

Hu Yuwei came over with his three sons in mourning clothes and said to Tian Buli, "My benefactor, since you want to study hard, why don't you stay with me in the city? I have a yard in the city that was lent to me by a friend, and it can accommodate many of us."

Tian Buli didn't want to affect Hu Yuwei, so he took the initiative to say, "Don't call me benefactor. I'm much younger than you. Just call me Tian Sheng. Don't be so formal."

Hu Yuwei smiled and said, "Okay, I'm really causing you trouble by always calling you that. I'll just do as you say."

Hu Yuwei actually knew that always calling Tian Buli his benefactor would make him lose face, but if he suddenly stopped calling him that, it would seem that he had become heartless and forgotten the great kindness he had received after becoming rich and powerful.

Now that Tian Buli has taken the initiative to change his words, it is a good thing for both parties.

After most of the things were settled, Hu Yuwei took Huer and Gouer to the provincial capital, leaving Baoer at the old house to help.

The two Dou Niangs stayed in the small courtyard in the city, and in the future their families from both sides would come to live with them one after another.

With the fame and talent of the scholar, relatives naturally sought protection from this promising man, and gradually the Hu family mansion was formed.

As the saying goes, when one person attains enlightenment, chickens and dogs ascend to heaven.

When the escort agency sent people to build a house, Tian Buli returned to the mountains and spent three or four days to bring the five rabbits over.
