Pick up a daughter-in-law to farm

Chapter 589 Old Man Zhuang's Decision

Curiosity and excitement are the habits of the villagers.

Seeing the carriage heading towards the old dealer, someone immediately called out to follow to watch the excitement.

Aunt Zhuang felt that the matter of the old house had nothing to do with her. She was a married woman, and there was a vicious stepmother there.
"Sister, should we go and have a look?"

Aunt Zhuang looked at her younger sister, and said calmly, "What are you going to do? Don't get rich and honored, and get scolded for a while! Wealth and honor or disaster, we are all the water thrown out by married women. I want to go with you, but I won’t go.”

Second Aunt Zhuang's face turned dark: "Elder Sister still thinks clearly, so I won't go either."

Seeing her two sisters not leaving, Aunt Daqing called out: "Chunying, Chunliu, don't you want to go and see?"

Aunt Zhuang shook her head resolutely: "I won't go, I'm just a poor person who relies on my hands for food, so I won't pursue those dreams of wealth and honor."

Aunt Daqing expressed admiration: "You really have ambition! Okay, I'll go and see the excitement, and I'll talk to you guys when I come back. Sang Yue, will you come and see with me?"

The eldest aunt and the second aunt are not going, and Zhuang Daniu is not here, remembering what Xiao Qi said, Sang Yue will naturally go.

So he put down the tools in his hand, went out of the courtyard and followed Aunt Daqing.

Because of the fine weather and high temperature today, Mrs. Zhuang in the courtyard of the Zhuang family's old house was also pushed out to bask in the sun.

Seeing that all the people in the village came to their house to watch the excitement, they immediately ordered Zhuang Sanhua: "Go and close the door for me!"

Suddenly a wealthy person came to the house, and Zhuang Sanhua was secretly guessing who it was, how many gifts he would give to the family, whether there would be money and cloth, but it was a pity that someone blocked the door, and only grandpa could go in.

Hearing Mrs. Zhuang's order, she immediately ran to close the door!

At this time, in the main hall of the Zhuang family, an old lady with white flowers in her early sixties stared at Mr. Zhuang: "Are you Zhuang Yansheng's eldest son?"

The old lady called Mrs. Zhuang by his name, and Mr. Zhuang felt a shock in his heart. He stepped forward and bowed: "If you go back to the old lady, it's the little one."

Mr. Zhuang puts on airs in front of others, but in front of the old master of the Zhuang family, he is a slave.

The old lady stared at Mr. Zhuang for a long time before she spoke: "You have three sons? How much do they have this year? Where are they now?"

Mr. Zhuang trembled all over when he heard this, but he was a man who had seen the world after all, so he forcibly calmed down: "Returning to the old lady, the villain has three sons. The eldest son is 37 this year, the second son is [-], and the youngest son is [-]... The eldest son is a hunter. I went hunting in the mountains many years ago and disappeared, the second son and the youngest son are both there, do you want to see the old lady?"

The old lady was disappointed when she heard the words: if her eldest son is still there, he will be in his forties this year, and it is possible for the child to be a year and a half away, but it is impossible to hide the truth if he is three or four years away.

Qi Guanshi stepped forward: "Brother, please bring their household registration and body plate, and show it to the old lady."

These days, Mr. Zhuang has already made preparations, so he asked Mr. Zhuang to fetch the things.

The old lady looked and looked carefully at the registration time of the three body plates and the household registration, and she was even more disappointed.

She knew that in the household registration system of Xiqi State, the child's household registration management is the strictest. The child must report to the Yamen within three months of birth, and a body plate will be issued within one year old. It is difficult to cheat at this age.

Putting down the things in his hands, he asked Mr. Zhuang to call Uncle Zhuang and Mr. Zhuang, until the old lady saw them two and immediately waved them away.

Qi Guanshi stepped forward: "Madam, shall we go?"

The old lady nodded: "Well, let's go, I will never give up if I don't come here once."

The carriage arrived in a quarter of an hour and left in a hurry, leaving behind a village of incomprehensible villagers.

The arrival of this group of people is just a lively topic for the villagers, but it is completely different for the people in the old house of the dealer.

Miao Xiaocui and Zhuang Fushun hid in the house and muttered: "Fushun, what secret does your old farmer have?"

Zhuang Fushun rubbed his waist for his little daughter-in-law and said lazily: "Who knows? The man who looked like a butler came here twice last time. He closed the door with Grandpa and talked in the study every time he came. My Grandpa's The study room is entirely made of blue bricks, once the doors and windows are closed, not to mention that people cannot hear anything, not even a mosquito can fly in."

Miao Xiaocui curled her lips when she heard the words: "Your grandfather is also a weird person. At this age, he doesn't talk about anything with the juniors. He just wants to bring the secret into the coffin, doesn't he?"

Zhuang Fushun didn't bother to care about so much, his grandma was in such a good shape, it was hard to say how many years he could endure, he just waited for grandma to die and dig out the money in her hand.

He is not interested in knowing about secrets.

The two couples were muttering in the house, and Zhuang Sanhua in the yard was not as low as they were: "Grandma, where did you come from? Why are you so stingy? They are so embarrassed to come here empty-handed." !"

How does she know where it is from?
It was also during this period of time that Mrs. Zhuang realized that the old man had many things hidden in his heart.

It's just that the two old people live in the same room, and the old man is locked in the room all day long, and doesn't speak to her, how can this secret be known?
The granddaughter was angry, and Mrs. Zhuang was naturally angry, so the grandfather and grandson scolded the visitor bloody together.

But in the study, Zhuang Laosan repeatedly pleaded: "Father, don't you really tell me what's going on? What is the relationship between this young master and us? Why did they come to us to look for the young master? Also, Dad, don’t you really know where this young master is? If you know, tell them quickly, it’s a whole 1000 taels of silver!”

1000 taels of silver, is it so easy to get?
Who are the Qi family?
That is a very wealthy family, if they know the truth, they still have their lives to use the money?
Mr. Zhuang glanced at his youngest son indifferently, and his voice was softer than plain boiled water: "Your grandfather was a small steward of the Qi family back then, managing this lady's dowry. The young master is the eldest son of this old lady. I don't know why this young master has been changed. It is said that the current young master is not the real young master. Because of your grandpa's relationship, they want to inquire. I have never met this young master, naturally There is no way to provide information."

What a pity, the 1000 taels of silver are gone like this?
As soon as Zhuang Laosan rolled his eyes, Mr. Zhuang warned him seriously: "The affairs of this big family are too complicated, and it is not something you can participate in. I advise you not to think about it, otherwise you will not be able to die any day." Know."

Zhuang Laosan loves money, but loves life even more.

Hearing that there was a threat to his life, he gave up his mind temporarily: "Father, my son knows."
