Chapter 241 Uncle and Aunt's Family

Seeing Tang Yanxiu forced into such a situation, Mo Qianrui resisted the urge to burst out laughing, gritted his teeth and comforted him with an extremely pitiful tone.

But when they got out of the space, Mo Qianrui still couldn't help laughing out loud, which made the grandma who lived in the left room yell at her several times.

Even so, Mo Qianrui still had to thank his grandma.

If it weren't for Grandma's swift action, she would have bought all the daily necessities in just one day.Not only did Huiniang move to Mo Qianrui's right room, but even Yunniang's mother and daughter's room was properly arranged.However, in Grandma's point of view, she still cares about the distinction between master and servant.Therefore, she arranged Yunniang, mother and daughter next to the old couple guarding the shop.

In this room, Mo Qianrui hid under the quilt and laughed, while thinking about the things to do in the next two days.

If Tang Yanxiu couldn't make it back in a short time, then some things might be delayed.Of course, she can also use Tang Yanxiu's name to order the treasurer Li Da.But the problem is that Manager Li doesn't come to Wanhua County very often. Generally speaking, he wanders between Mingyue Town and Yuxian County.

Leaving Mo Qianrui's plans aside, Tang Yanxiu was already in shock.

Not long after Mo Qianrui left the space, he also returned to his room in the inn.

His valet's condition didn't improve, even after taking the medicine prescribed by the doctor, he still had intermittent fever.

Originally, Tang Yanxiu set off with the servant thinking that in case of any accident, more people would help.

result……

Shaking his head helplessly, Tang Yanxiu pushed open the door of his room, intending to go to the next door to check on the situation of the servant.

But almost as soon as he pushed the door open, the loud roar from downstairs suddenly hit his ears.

"What? You said there are no more rooms? Hmph, do you think this is the bustling Kyoto County? Or do you think we are foreigners who are easy to bully? Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and free up three upper rooms for my master, and another ten middle-level rooms." In the guest room, get another Chase shop.”

"Hey, why are we bullying foreigners? This housekeeper, since you came here by water, you should have seen the situation on the pier, right? There is an inn near here. It’s the person who got off that big boat earlier. There’s really no room left, not to mention the upper room, even the Datong bunk...or I’ll squeeze out half of the Datong bunk for you.”

The so-called Datong bunk refers to placing a long bed similar to the northern kang on the left and right sides of a large room against the walls.Of course, it just looks like a kang, and it doesn't have the function of a kang.However, although this kind of Datong shop is very simple, it can sleep a lot of people.Generally speaking, a room has two large bunks, each of which can sleep at least a dozen people. If it is crowded, it should not be a problem to sleep thirty or forty people in one room.

"You, you, you... I asked you to vacate the upper room, and you told me that you can squeeze out half of the Datong shop? Shopkeeper, do you still want to do business properly?"

"Isn't there no vacancy here? Let's talk about half a Datong shop, it's not a problem to squeeze more than ten people."

"Presumptuous! Do you know who my master is? My master is a fourth-rank official master in Jingdu County! Besides, even if the servants can sleep in Datong shop, my master will still bring you, Mrs. Young Master!"

……

The noise continued downstairs, but Tang Yanxiu on the upper floor slammed the door shut, leaning against the livid surface of the door.

You can't be wrong, you came from Jingdu County, and you are a fourth-rank official, and you also bring your wife, young master, and young lady.

Coupled with the familiar voice of the housekeeper's loud voice, it must be the uncle's family.

But what is going on?Why did my uncle's family not stay in Jingdu County well, but rushed here instead?Did they hear about him and plan to go to Wanhua County to find him, or did they simply come to Chongming County?
If the former, who revealed his location?
If the latter, why did they come to Chongming County?

I racked my brains to recall the poor memory of the original owner, but unfortunately, I couldn't find any useful information.

It's no wonder that the original owner is a little fool who doesn't know anything except eating and drinking.But Tang Yanxiu didn't remember that his grandfather had mentioned Chongming County to him before his death.In fact, Chongming County is just a very ordinary county in Dakang.It is neither a political center nor an economic center, let alone any historical culture.

What are they doing in Chongming County?
"Guest officer, are you asleep?"

Suddenly, someone knocked on the door. Tang Yanxiu subconsciously stood up straight, but instead of opening the door immediately, she took a few steps back and said in a low voice, "What's wrong? Why is it so noisy outside?"

Hearing the voice from outside, he looked very young. He must not be the manager of this inn who is over fifty years old. It should be the waiter of a certain inn.

"Guest officer, I'm really sorry. A group of people came here just now, claiming to be the official who helped the coffin back home. But most of the rooms in our inn have been reserved by you, guest officer. Can you see..."

Help the coffin back home!

Tang Yanxiu didn't notice what the inn waiter said at all, because his mind was completely occupied by these four words.

The first reaction was, who died?Uncle or aunt?
However, after only a moment, Tang Yanxiu figured it out.

It's not that someone died, but that the uncle's family sent the grandfather's coffin to the countryside.

only……

If there is no problem with his brain, didn't his grandfather pass away last summer?How long has it been?I thought it was too late for the Duan family's brother-in-law and cousin Yu, but after all, it was an accident and it was completely beyond the control of others.Just like that, Tang Yanxiu was still shocked, not to mention that it has been nearly a year since his grandfather passed away, and this uncle's family just returned home with the coffin?

Brain is sick!
"Guest officer? Guest officer, have you fallen asleep?"

Shaking his head, Tang Yanxiu forced himself to calm down.Now is not the time to think about whether his uncle's mind is normal or not, but to find a way not to expose himself.

"My room and the room of the patient next door cannot be given up. You can ask about the others. That's good. I've already paid the rent anyway. You can tell the boatmen that if they are willing to give up the room , I will give them the extra rent as compensation. In this case, some rooms should be vacant.”

"Okay, okay, then guest officer, you can rest first, thank you guest officer."

The waiter at the inn outside was very cheerful.

Although Tang Yanxiu was unwilling to give up his room and the boy's room, there were about twenty rooms in their inn, and if he could persuade other guests to give up the room, it would be enough.Besides, Tang Yanxiu also gave a good idea, not to mention buying a house, even the price between a medium house and a Datong shop is already a world of difference.Previously, Tang Yanxiu paid all the rent, but now as long as the difference is refunded to other guests, it shouldn't be a problem.

boatman……

Thinking of the boatman that Tang Yanxiu just casually said, the waiter in the inn was even happier.

He grew up by the pier since he was a child, and he had the most dealings with the boatmen, so it was not too easy to persuade them to give up the room.

Perhaps it was because the innkeeper and the waiter handled it well, or it might be that it was already late at night and no one could afford to bother, and the noise outside soon calmed down.

It's a pity that Tang Yanxiu really couldn't fall asleep after being tormented like this.

Helping the coffin back home...

It was quiet outside, but he was still thinking about the words that the waiter in the inn said just now, and his mind was full of these four characters.Even, he couldn't help but think of the bits and pieces that happened when he just crossed over.

I thought that it had been so long, and he was not Mo Qianrui. He actually didn't have much affection for his family in this life.

Uncle and aunt needless to say, it's pretty good that they didn't make trouble to the point of endless death.

The cousin and cousin did not have any enemies with Tang Yanxiu. In fact, they had never had any contact with each other at all, and they were just relatives of strangers.

The only grandfather Tang Yanxiu cared about had already passed away, and even though the grandfather in this life looked almost exactly the same as the grandfather in the previous life, the two felt completely different after all.

Although the grandfather in this life could not be said to be highly talented, he was also educated. Even if he didn't understand the Four Books and Five Classics, he was extremely proficient in arranging troops.There is no way, he is a first-rank military general rather than a civil servant, so naturally he cannot be full of knowledge.

But the problem is, the grandfather in the previous life was born as a pure mud leg.Dou Da does not know a lot of Chinese characters, so he loves Tang Yanxiu very much, but he speaks a lot of rural dialect and market slang. I hope that Tang Yanxiu will learn military art and inherit the mantle of the Tang family in the future.

Overall, apart from their similar looks, they are two completely different people.

Tang Yanxiu couldn't understand Mo Qianrui's attitude towards his family in this life, but he would not interfere with Mo Qianrui's behavior.

Even emotional sustenance is fine, anyway, as long as both parties have given their affection, coupled with the original blood connection, it is completely possible to become a real family.

If his grandfather hadn't passed away, even if he was a completely different person from the grandfather in his previous life, as long as his grandfather really loved him, he would respect his grandfather like a grandson.

As for the uncle and aunt's family...

Hehe, I wish you all the best of luck, lost halfway.

Because of this matter, Tang Yanxiu didn't bother to go to the next room to see the boy, mainly because he was afraid of meeting his uncle and aunt's family in the corridor.After all, the ones in the aisle on this side are all in the upper room. If they encounter it, they will probably be regarded as ghosts, right?
Wait, ghosts?
Inexplicably, Tang Yanxiu came up with an idea.

Even without mentioning the hardships the original owner suffered at the hands of his uncle and aunt, he himself was not less tossed by his uncle.

He shrank him in the house and set fire to him, and made tea with Tripterygium wilfordii for him to drink.Although before leaving, Tang Yanxiu gave them a hard time, but it was not enough to offset the previous damage.

It would be fine if it didn't happen, since it happened so coincidentally, if I don't give an unforgettable lesson, how can I be worthy of the harm I and the original owner have suffered?
