The old man didn't get into the topic for a long time, and Liu Dayu was inconvenient to interrupt the old man's train of thought, so he could only listen patiently to her talk forward with a hammer and a stick.

"Rong Guangyao had a son and a daughter, and the daughter was Osmanthus, at that time, Osmanthus was only sixteen years old, and Lirao was seventeen years old. The two of them have played together and read books together since childhood. Childhood sweetheart,Very good.。 Lirao is very fond of osmanthus flowers. At that time, there were many people who wanted to be related to our Gu family - in our case, when the boy was fifteen or sixteen years old, matchmakers began to come to the door. Ke Lirao fell in love with osmanthus. Lirao and his father also like osmanthus very much, so we intend to match the two of them. Naruhito asked the matchmaker to go to Rong's house, but Rong Guangyao refused to agree. ”

"Why is that?"

"I hate us!"

"Disliked? Your Gu family is a big family here, and Gu Deren is the chief of the body, why does the Rong Guangyao family dislike your Gu family? ”

"Lirao his grandfather helped people eliminate disasters and exorcise ghosts, and watched feng shui, and the Rong family looked down on our ancient family from the bottom of their bones. It's no wonder that people look down on us, even I look down on myself, and I don't do his grandfather all his life, specializing in some things that are mysterious, seven gods and eight ghosts, I just can't figure it out, even I, a woman, can see the deceit, but the villagers are stunned to regard him as a god. The old man knew that he was a little off topic, so he quickly pulled the conversation back, "That glorious grandfather is the Qipin county commander in the Guangxu period, and he is an official, how can the Rong family look down on pretending to be a ghost to make a living?" ”

"Da Yu, the portrait we saw at Daddy Rong's house should be Grandpa Rong's grandfather." Chen Jie said.

"What this comrade said is that the portrait has been hanging in the hall of the Rongguang Sect, and in the past, the Rong family and our family hardly interacted. If Naruhito gives up, forget it, but his father is a face-saving person, he can't swallow this breath, and people will do wrong things when they are angry. In the past, Naruhito has always been good to the Rong family, and in this matter, he has indeed gone too far. ”

"What did Gu Deren do wrong?"

"Lirao's father had mixed things up in the Kuomintang army and served as a battalion commander. Later he was injured and broke a leg. ”

Liu Dayu looked at Chen Jie: "Auntie, we heard that your wife Gu Deren was originally a battalion commander in the New Fourth Army. ”

"That's a lie, when he came back, the Kuomintang was almost dying, and he just came back when he saw that the Kuomintang was dying. It is precisely because he said that he was a battalion commander in the New Fourth Army that the leaders in the county would look up to him, otherwise, they would not have let him be the security chief. He has been mixed in the army, and he is very familiar with the affairs of officialdom, and he can play tricks with money, so there is collusion up and down. There were many friends in the officialdom, and he secretly instructed the people in the county to arrest Gui Xiang, Gui Hua's brother -- he wanted to arrest Gui Xiang to be a strong man -- in fact, he was scaring Rong Guangyao. ”

"Glory softened?"

On the night of Gui Xiang's arrest, Rong Guangyao brought a heavy gift, came to the door in person, and readily agreed to the marriage. Early in the morning of the third day, Gui Xiang was picked up. ”

"So, the Rong family has a grudge?"

"If that's the case, that's fine. It's just a head. Rong Guangyao is very precious osmanthus - osmanthus is the pearl of his palm, and he was originally going to marry osmanthus to a rich family in the city. ”
