The safety and comfort of traveling through farming

Chapter 96

"A Tao, come in with me..." Mrs. Wu patted He Tao's arm.

Holding Nian Zong and crying happily, He Tao, whose eyes were still red and swollen, nodded and followed Wu into the east room.After entering the room, the two sat down on the bench next to each other. Mrs. Wu took He Tao's hand and sighed, "You can't just say what you said just now. Even if you are the daughter-in-law of the Fu family, the He family I can’t blame you, but the misfortune comes from the mouth, they only need to pass on what you said, if the villagers know that you cursed your grandmother, you will have a hard time in the future!”

He Tao nodded in frustration.

Of course she knew what Wu Shi said was right, otherwise she wouldn't have been patient all the time!But what happened in the past two days was too much for her to bear. Once she got excited, she couldn't care less about it. Let's talk about it first when I feel comfortable!
I scolded and scolded, and beat and beat. If the He family really took the matter of these two days to the outside world, Rongshu Village and the others probably wouldn't want to stay any longer. Even if the Da Zhou family really went to the Yamen to sue her for being unfilial If not, she will be punished!
She felt guilty just thinking about it.

"Second aunt, do you think they will sue me?"

"...This shouldn't be the case, right?" Wu answered hesitantly.To be honest, how does she know what step the He family will take? !
"Let's do this, spend money to avoid disaster! Come on, you take a few taels of silver, and I'll go to He's house with you to have a look. Anyway, there is a reason for this. If others talk about it, you can explain it. At first, you didn't want to pay. It’s because I feel bad about being wronged! As long as your natal family takes your money, everything will be fine!”

"I still have to give money..." He Tao was unhappy in various ways.If you have money, you might as well give it to the beggars on the street, and you can get a few words of thanks. The Da Zhou family probably thinks it is right to take the money, maybe it is too little!
"You child, why can't you figure it out? Spend money to avoid disasters! After giving the money, we will stand still, no matter what they say, no one will believe it!" Tao, straightened her messy hair, pointed outside and said, "Let's go, let's go now, and your second uncle and cousin will also go together. Although you can't let others know with drums and drums, neither can the people around you." Blind, if you see so many of us coming to your door, you will definitely inquire, especially Xie Dazui next door to your natal family, as long as she knows, the whole village will know!"

What Wu said made sense, He Tao obediently obeyed, went into the house to get a few pieces of silver and followed Wu and others out.

Coincidentally, when the group walked to the door of He's house, they happened to meet Mrs. Xie who had returned from a trip.

"Are you here to see my aunt?"

He Tao recalled what Mrs. Wu said before, pretending to be very anxious and said: "Yes, yes, my father went to inform me that my grandma was ill. I was afraid that the family would not be able to treat it properly without money, so, no, So I borrowed some money from my second uncle and sent it over..."

She opened her hand as she spoke, allowing Mrs. Xie to see clearly the pieces of silver in her palm.

"Ah!" Seeing Yinzi's eyes shining, Xie felt extremely jealous, this He Tao's life is too good!Those pieces of broken silver add up to three or four taels, and they were just taken out so casually!Mrs. Xie pinched the handkerchief and said to He Tao with regret, "Young girl Tao is really filial, she is not at all like your second brother..."

"What's wrong with my second brother?" He Tao frowned and asked.

"Hey?! You don't know yet?" Mrs. Xie patted her leg: "Your second brother has been missing for more than ten days! Just now someone from Huang Dahu's family came to ask, your grandma fainted because of this!"

"..." He Tao suddenly felt dumbfounded.If she hadn't deliberately gone to Huang's house to "inform" to vent her anger, there would be no such thing as Da Zhou's dizziness, let alone He Fuguo's quarrel with her. Is this chain after chain, is it the legend? Karma?It seems that Da Zhou's family is really sick, but it's not because she is angry, but because he is worried that He Youliang is in a hurry!
"What's going on?" Mrs. Wu hurriedly asked.

As soon as she asked Xie, she clattered and rambling about what happened in the morning.

"In the morning, someone came from Huang Dahu's house. After a few words with your grandma, your grandma fainted! I watched your grandma fall down, right there, at the gate...we happened to be working there, saw Your second uncle, oh, your natal second uncle hurriedly went to Carpenter Lin’s house to borrow an ox cart. I thought it was your grandma who was seriously ill again, and they were going to send her to the hospital. I only found out after asking. The Huang family said that they haven’t seen your second brother for more than ten days, and your second uncle rushed to the Huang’s house to see if it’s true! At first they heard that your grandma was sick, and someone knew that they went to your house yesterday to make a fuss. Some people said it was because you quarreled with her and your little brother didn’t come home for two days, and some people said it was because of your little brother’s anger. Speaking of which, it’s my fault, but I told them Oh, your grandma got dizzy after seeing someone from the Huang family, and it has nothing to do with you two! Otherwise, you will bear the reputation of being unfilial for nothing..."

The corner of He Tao's mouth twitched - rub!Da Zhou only fainted in the morning, who else could know so timely except Xie, the next-door neighbor? !She has the nerve to say something right to her!
"It's really thanks to you, auntie!" He Tao pretended to wipe away tears, and said hesitantly: "You don't know, yesterday, my grandma and the others..."

Fu Quan and Wu Shi looked at each other - this He Tao really knows how to act!
"What happened yesterday?!" Mrs. Xie really took the bait and asked eagerly.

"I didn't want to talk about this matter after all. After all, it was my elder. However, since some people in the village said that my grandma was caused by me, I have to say a few more words..." He Tao sings very well. She vividly performed the image of a wronged and forbearing married woman, covering her chest with one hand, wiping away tears that didn't exist with a handkerchief in the other, and said intermittently after rubbing her eyes red: "You may not know, my family's more than ten I went out today, but yesterday, for some reason, my grandma and elder brother came to my house and insisted that he beat my younger brother! How could this be possible? He has been gone for more than ten days and still Can you beat someone thousands of miles away? No matter how I explain it to them, they won't believe it, and I must pay for the soup and medicine! And..."

He Tao wanted to cover up the slap marks on her face, and when Xie saw the hand holding her, she said sympathetically, "Oh, girl Tao, you have suffered..."

"At the beginning, my family gave a dowry gift of 20 taels of silver..."

"Ah, so many?!" Everyone already knew about this!After all, Fu Quan was in the spirit of casting a wide net to catch more fish, and talked about his willingness to pay a high price for the bride price!However, the timing of He Tao's return was coincidental. The He family moved quickly and directly cut off many people's financial resources. So far, many people are regretting that they did not make a decision earlier, and they are also complaining that the He family blocked their financial resources.

"Yes, otherwise, how could my second brother marry my second sister-in-law..."

"So that's what's going on?!" Zhang Dahua has already publicized this matter to everyone!But if she doesn't say anything, everyone can understand that Wang Jingui's condition for marrying a daughter is to ask for 20 taels of silver as a dowry. Since He Youdong married Wang Qionghua, he must have given enough dowry!
"When I was married, I didn't bring a single needle or thread with me except for the clothes I was wearing. But I thought, since a family member came to the door, no matter what the excuse was, it was always at home. Difficulty and lack of money to use..."

"Oh, you are so filial! Your family has no difficulties. Your grandma told someone a few days ago that your second brother's allowance is very high, and the food at home can't be eaten up! It's not obvious that..."

He Tao grabbed Xie Shi's hand and interrupted her, lowered her head and muttered, "Auntie! You can't say this, you don't blame your father, even if that's the case, they really want, what do you want?" , I can't say it either!"

"Hey, yes, yes, that's what it is!" Mrs. Xie laughed dryly.

"Later Grandma Rong came, and they left!" He Tao patted his chest with a look of fear: "Otherwise, I really don't know what to do. Fu Shi took away all the money in the family. I don’t have much money left. If I really want to take the money, I really can’t get it... In the morning, my father came and said that grandma was sick. I thought they came to ask for money yesterday, and the family must have no money... "

As He Tao spoke, he waved the broken silver in his hand in front of Xie's eyes and said, "That's why I asked my second uncle and second aunt to borrow these..."

"I will never find such a filial granddaughter like you again!" Xie's face was very touched, but he was cursing in his heart: You are so stupid, you deserve to be oppressed by your natal family all your life!

"Ouch, I told you this by accident..." He Tao covered her mouth and pretended to be bewildered, and hurriedly turned to leave: "Auntie, I, I have to go and see grandma. Talk to you again!"

"Hey, okay, you go, hurry up and see your grandma!" Mrs. Xie waved her hand, turned around and left.

She was in a hurry, she got such a gossip that no one knew about, so she had to hurry up and talk to Xi Po and the others!
It wasn't until Mrs. Xie was gone that Fu Lei and Fu Leihe burst into laughter, especially Fu Lei covered his stomach and slapped his thigh and said, "Oh, sister-in-law, you are really good, Mr. Xie When I see the money in your hand, my eyes will fall out, I'm sure that within a long time, the village will know about you 'borrowing money to treat your natal grandmother'!"

Wu Shi also laughed, this child is smart, the effect is much better than she thought!

"Okay, okay, keep your face down, we are visiting patients, why are you laughing like this!" Fu Quan scolded with a smile.

Everyone stopped laughing when they heard this, and put on a sad expression, and He Tao stepped forward and knocked on the door of He's courtyard.

It was Xiao Chen who answered the door. When she saw He Tao, she couldn't help being surprised and happy. She took her hand and said, "Tao'er, did you bring money? I knew you wouldn't ignore it. Come, come with me." Go in, your grandpa will be happy to see you!"

"..." He Tao clenched his fists tightly, rub, where did you get the confidence that I won't ignore you? !
