Chapter 865: Come on
Xu Cang's stepmother also did not have the consciousness of keeping festivals, thinking that her husband had held Xu Cang's hand before he died, choked and couldn't make a sound, and only said after a long time: "It's hard for my son!" He sighed and passed away.
It can be seen that he expected that his wife would not be willing to be widowed, and he could not rest assured that his young son would not be relieved, so he asked Xu Qingtang in advance.
As a man, Xu Rong was very angry that a woman remarried, but Xu Hao naturally thought that it was justified that if his wife died, he could renew the string, but why couldn't he remarry when his husband died? Defect!
In this way, the stepmother secretly transported the soft things home, Xu Cang was young and honest, and he didn't dare to make a noise when he saw it. The eighth uncle also found out, thinking about my bad reputation, to prevent her from falling into any words, the family atmosphere has never been difficult to remarry the daughter-in-law, according to Xu Laosan's deviant rules, the property of the husband and wife is shared by both parties, and the person who remarries has the right to take one-third of the property, forget it, I still don't say anything, anyway, the house and other big things can't be taken away.
Therefore, there was no turmoil, at this moment Xu Hao had a number in his heart, so he went to Xu Cang's house with Xu Rong, and it happened that his mother's father and mother also came, surnamed Huang, and hurriedly welcomed them in, only the eighth uncle muttered in his heart, what is he doing here? And his famous son Xu Yong is nowhere to be seen, because he is unwilling to support his parents, the father and son do not care about anyone.
During the conversation, Xu Hao calmed down, and talked about irrelevant things, but Xu Rong didn't say anything, and ignored Huang Yuanwai.
Finally, the eighth uncle couldn't help but speak first: "My brother unfortunately died, my younger brother and sister are in their youth, and it is not a reason to observe festivals." Now that Cang'er is left, she is not her own child, and people can go, but they have to leave a place for Cang'er, I don't know what the in-laws plan to do? ”
Because Xu Hao appeared, Huang Yuan was not easy to talk outside, but Mrs. Huang came out of it and said, "What the in-laws said makes sense. My daughter is young and has never given birth, and she doesn't want her to be a widow at a young age. As for leaving a place for Cang'er, it's like we have some meaning of deception, so unreasonable! As long as the original dowry is removed, the rest of the Xu family's belongings will not move. It just so happened that the third master came, and I bothered you to testify and understand, so Cang'er entrusted it to his old couple. ”
Xu Hao glanced at Uncle Eight, Xu Cang was young and had to be taken care of. Even if the eighth uncle covets his family property, he is not afraid of anything happening with him. If Xu Cang himself is unwilling, he will discuss it after his aunt's family enters Beijing, and it will be a big deal to receive a foreign house to raise.
Seeing that Xu Hao didn't squeak, the eighth uncle said: "I don't mean anything, we have to say ugly things in front, the cage inside is thin and soft, it's not that I'm too careful, I must check it out." You are the ones who are married. Even if I take it, I can't take the rest with me, it's my nephew's property. ”
Mrs. Huang smiled: "That's right, then please go in and check the check." Save people from suspicion. ”
Xu Hao didn't move, Xu Rong sneered slightly and didn't go in, anyone with a discerning eye knows what's going on, and the Xu family is not short of money. As old men, they don't want to quarrel with the Huang family and his wife over some gold and silver, there is no need for that, and the Xu Cang family is not rich again.
The eighth uncle couldn't wait to rush in. Knowing that the fine soft is gone, there is no evidence to corroborate. Seeing that there were some ordinary jewelry, scattered silver taels and some clothes left in the wardrobe box, he couldn't hide his disappointment and said, "Is my brother only leaving this little thing?" ”
Huang smiled bitterly and explained: "When he was alive, his family was not wealthy, and everyone knew it. Since I got sick, I have asked for medical medicine, shroud coffins, opened watches and funerals, and treated people for treats, but I don't know how much money I have used! This is all seen by your old man, is it fake? ”
Mrs. Huang said: "You old man doesn't believe it, even open my daughter's box to take a look, so as to save suspicion." ”
"No need." The eighth uncle didn't want to dwell on it too much, it was nothing more than spending the Xu family's money, and the Huang family secretly took away all their dowry, and by the way, they made one or two hundred taels, a little silver, and they looked like they had a small belly and chicken intestines if they chased after it.
In fact, what he really likes is the house, and he really has enough to live with his son. Xu Fu moved, Xu Yong knew that he was not treated well by the whole family, so he didn't move over, and even if he wanted to move over, no one would give his family money to build a house.
Just as Mrs. Huang said: "It's all said today, don't regret it tomorrow, it's better to move out now." ”
When the eighth uncle heard this, he said, "My mother-in-law is happy to do things, so let's move." ”
It was already evening, Huang first walked to Xu Hao and kowtowed two heads, Xu Hao smiled gently, she cried a few more times in front of the spirit, pulled off the two hairpins on her head, and left Xu Cang as a souvenir. At this moment, Xu Cang is like a lightning strike, the whole person is speechless, wanting to cry without tears, Xu Hao is also sad for his brother, his mother died and his stepmother is gone, which is really pitiful.
But this is life, Xu Hao pulled Xu Cang to the side and said in a low voice: "After the eighth uncle moves here, don't talk about anything, I have my own arrangements when I turn back." ”
"I see." Xu Cang's heart is somewhat better, with the third brother here, he is not alone and no one cares.
Xu Hao looked at him as if he saw Xu Hu and Xu Jiang back then, because he watched him grow up since he was a child, he felt like a brother, and saw the Huang family leave in a small sedan chair at night, and took Xu Cang to Qianshoutang.
The old lady felt sorry for him, asked Yuelan to take out five hundred taels of silver, and said: "Poor one, this money will be handed over to Rong'er to manage, and your brother will be handed over to you to take care of, I don't worry about him." ”
"Yes." Xu Rong said with a smile.
At the same time, Xu Wen and Li Zengzhi and other pro-Xu Hao's fox friends and dog friends got together, Xu Hu hurriedly ran up to the second floor, and shouted excitedly: "Hooked, hooked." ”
Xu Wen and Li Zengzhi looked at each other and smiled, and sneered: "Lao Tzu knows that he can't change his dog to eat, and he doesn't dare to go out to show off during the period of filial piety, so he has to make a big fool of himself this time." ”
It turned out that because Zhang Hui had a very stiff quarrel with Zhang Fu for the title, Xu Wen was bent on revenge, and Li Zengzhi and others also intended to teach Zhang Fu a lesson and set a trap together.
Zhang Hui likes to listen to operas, so he slipped out alone tonight, found a theater garden that he doesn't often go to, listened to it in the corner for a long time, paid the bill and left.
Passing through several courtyards with lanterns, laughter and laughter in them ushered in, he didn't even look at it, and suddenly saw a young woman standing in front of the door of a serious family, a bunch of black hair like dark clouds, delicate skin, especially a pair of good eyes, watery eyes coming and going, the best thing is a head high, full of 1.75 meters of appearance. It's quite rare, and Zhang Hui's life is just like this.
Immediately made his heart angry, and looked at the woman with a smile. The woman smiled and squinted at him, feeling that this man was many times cleaner than the usual men, and that he was dignified and dignified, neither tall nor short, with a round waist and a thick back, and wore a new white silk shirt. With a pair of new satin boots under his feet, he said with a smile: "You can please sit inside and drink bell tea." ”
Zhang Hui wanted to go in, but he didn't think it should be, the old father had only been dead for a few days? I can't get over this hurdle in my heart.
The woman thought it was the first time and laughed, "Yo! Don't be ashamed, look at the streets in and out, how many people are there in a day? Just come in. ”
On the teahouse in the distance, Xu Wen looked around with a telescope. deliberately shouted: "Oh, isn't that Zhang Hui?" What does this bastard think of prostitution? ”
Xu Ye, who was called inexplicably, was startled and said, "Can't you?" ”
"Why not, Your Highness. Come over and see if it's him. Xu Wen said to Zhu Zhanji, who came with Xu Ye.
Zhu Zhanji walked over with a dark face, took a look at the binoculars, and said angrily: "What a Zhang Hui." Such a morally corrupt man. ”
Xu Wen, Li Zengzhi and the others secretly laughed, Xu Ye reacted a little, but he didn't want to see Zhang Hui. It was to say nothing.
Zhang Hui over there was still fighting between heaven and man, and the woman smiled again: "I think it's Xianggong's little head, he must not have entered the Red Gate to open meat, and he is still a vegetarian, hehe!" ”
Several people in the vicinity laughed, and one stepped forward and pulled Zhang Hui's shirt. Zhang Hui turned around and saw that the man was in his thirties, dressed as a rich man, and said with a smile: "It's a good thing that people's daughters-in-law invite you in, she is a famous family in this area, not comparable to those prostitutes." You're good to go in, what are you afraid of? I will cover the door for you, and no one will be able to see you. ”
Zhang Huixin said that I still need your help? couldn't help muttering, the man couldn't hear clearly, and said: "If you are interested in the lady, just go in generously, we are all friends, I will guard them for you, and make sure that no one comes." When you come out and invite me to drink four taels of wine, eat a bowl of beef noodles and return to your friendship. It doesn't matter if you don't have it, what is it to go out and rely on friends? ”
Another man in a blue shirt also said, "The dough is too tender? Afraid of what? If you want to play, just spend a tael of silver, where do you find such a slender beauty? Is there such a cheap thing? Let's get inside. ”
Zhang Hui, who was originally moved, was said by the two of you, and I said a word, and it was itchy to scratch, if you don't go in again, wouldn't you lose the face of a man? Pushing the boat down the river, he said, "It's really good to go in?" I'm not going to lie, it's the first time, I'm sorry. ”
The man from before laughed, "What can't you enter." He pushed Zhang Hui in, closed the door with his hand, buckled it back, and said, "Don't panic, with us here, you just have to rest assured." ”
Zhang Hui continued to pretend to be the first time he came, hesitating and not daring to approach.
But the woman saw through him at a glance, and said with a smile: "Good son, don't pretend, if you want to go to the old lady, go into the house." ”
After speaking, he lifted the curtain and entered the bedroom, only to see an old woman in her forties coming out of the back of the house, stretching out her hand and saying, "Count the money." ”
Zhang Hui was stunned for a moment, remembering that the scattered silver had been rewarded to the opera garden, and said, "I didn't bring any money." ”
"What are you doing when you come in without any money?" The old woman frowned, "It's absolutely impossible to play in vain, we are not Qinhuai River, and we don't want to write poems and sleep in vain." ”
Zhang Hui smiled: "I don't have money, but I have a ticket." ”
Very generously gave two taels of silver tickets, Zhang Hui completely let go, lifted the curtain and went in, the smell in the room was a little smoky, the young woman sat on the kang, a mat, a red pillow, and a spring stool next to it.
The young woman invited him to take off his shoes and sit down, picked up the clay pot from the kang stove, and poured a half-warm cup of tea. Then he generously took out a wooden basin, added hot water, and directly picked up his clothes, squatted down, and washed them with his hands.
Zhang Hui looked at her lower body, and when it was clean, the woman staggered over, went directly to the kang and lay down on her back, stretched her legs, and said with a smile: "Come on!" (To be continued......)
