Chapter 186: Help me pick peach blossoms

Chapter 186: Help my brother to pick up the peach blossoms

"Village, village chief." After the Mo family came to the village chief, Mo Dali negotiated with the village chief. Mr. Mo was totally embarrassed to speak now.

Village Chief He didn't talk nonsense to them, and said directly to Mr. Mo: "Five taels of silver, bring me five taels of silver, and the matter of your second granddaughter will be over."

"Why do you want our family to give us five taels of silver? Qiuyue is the one who suffered the loss!" Mo Dakui's wife was angry. She looked at her daughter who had fainted. Thinking about the loss her daughter had suffered, she was so angry that she burst into tears.

Her family Qiuyue was going to marry Gu Jinan and become a scholar's wife. Now because of He Sanleizi, her marriage to Gu Jinan was considered a scandal and her reputation was ruined. The Mo family hasn't settled the score with He Sanleizi yet, so how can they still do it? Give money?

"No? OK." Village Chief He said to He Sanleizi: "Today is a good day, a good day to get married. You can take the Mo family's second granddaughter home now."

"Hey, thank you village chief." He Sanleizi rubbed his hands and walked towards Mo Qiuyue who fainted with an impatient expression. Mo Dakui's wife was so frightened that she threw herself directly on Mo Qiuyue and said to Village Chief He: "Here Give it, our family will give it!

Their family is not as poor as they appear on the surface. They still have five taels of silver.

Her father-in-law was smart and had always kept his private money. The food and drink at home, including some expenses on the escape route, were all taken from Mo Kuizi's family. The ones who were really too poor to uncover the blame were Mo Kuizi's family.

When Mr. Mo heard Mo Dakui's wife's words, he was so angry that he almost wanted to strangle her to death. However, he had lost enough face today. There were still four villagers watching the fun standing around. Mr. Mo didn't want to be embarrassed anymore, so he trembled with his hands. , took out a small purse from the inner pocket of his clothes, took out five taels of broken silver, and handed it to Mo Dakui next to him.

Mo Dakui quickly took the silver and gave it to Village Chief He.

Village Chief He took the money, waved his hand, and said impatiently to the Mo family: "Hurry home, I will feel bad when I see you. Remember today's lesson, and next time, it is not something that can be settled with a fine. .

The Mo family suffered a big loss and lost face. How could they dare to stay here longer? When the village chief let him go, Mr. Mo immediately turned around and left.

Mo Dayong and his wife took their own Mo Dongyue, took their eldest son Mo Xiangxi, and left quickly with Mr. Mo.

Mo Dali glared at Mo Chunyue, angry at her for not helping his family, but Mo Chunyue snorted coldly and turned away, ignoring him at all. Mo Dali was so angry that he didn't dare to scold Mo Chunyue due to the presence of Village Chief He, so he could only turn around and leave.

Mrs. Mo and Mo Dakui's wife lifted up the unconscious Mo Qiuyue. Mo Dakui took Mo Xiangbei and Mo Xiangnan and left in despair.

Village Chief He said to Gu Jinli: "Don't worry, Xiaoyu, after today's lesson, his family will not dare to trouble your family again."

Speaking, he handed her the five taels of silver in his hand.

Gu Jinli didn't ask for it: "It's hard for my family to get this money. The village chief should leave it to the village."

When Village Chief He saw that she refused to accept it, he put the money away and said to He Shiliu and the others who were carrying the gifts: "A guest is coming to the Gu family's workshop. You send the gifts to the Gu family's workshop. You can go back after taking the bean cakes. The Gu family won't I will forget your thoughts.

Jiang Xianwei came in person. He didn't want the villagers to be indifferent and disturb the county captain.

He Shiliu said: "Don't worry, village chief. We are all sensible people. We will return as soon as the gifts are delivered to us."

He greeted those who were carrying the gifts and said, "Hurry up and follow me to deliver the gifts. After delivering the gifts, we have to go to work."

Hey. The other three villagers immediately followed He Shiliu.

He Shiliu is one of the few in the He family who has some wealth, and he does hard work, leading people to find stones. Stones were important in ancient times and were used for making millstones and building houses. But the stones are too heavy, and if one of them fails, they will be killed by the rolling stones.

He Shiliu became rich because he found a strange stone when he was young. A rich man saw it and bought it for a hundred taels of silver. At that time, He Shiliu was so frightened that he kept the stone because he thought it looked good and was reluctant to throw it away. Unexpectedly, he made a lot of money.

He Shiliu later learned that the rich people in Fucheng liked to place some strange stones in their study rooms or courtyards. Those strange stones were much more valuable than larger stones.

Over the years, He Shiliu has been looking for large stones to sell to stone shops and strange stones, hoping to make a lot of money. But a person's luck only comes once in a lifetime, and it is gone once it is used up. After so many years, he has not encountered any strange stones again, and has been looking for stones with his brothers and cousins.

Now that I am getting older, I can no longer handle such a life-threatening job, so I want to find some stable work for my family, so I came to the Gu family workshop to give gifts.

Village Chief He and the others also walked towards the Gu family workshop.

Qin Sanlang and Gu Jinli walked at the end, and the group returned to the workshop not long after.

Gu Jinan hurriedly came up to greet him. After saying hello to Village Chief He, he came to Gu Jinli and asked her: "Xiaoyu, what about the Mo family?"

Gu Jinli looked at Gu Jinan and smiled happily: "Brother, it's spring, your peach blossoms are in full bloom, but the peach blossoms are too rotten, so I will pinch them for you."

Gu Jinan is smart. He only frowned for a while before he understood what Gu Jinli was talking about. His face turned red and he was angry: "The Mo family really doesn't know what to say!"

No wonder Mo Qiuyue would look at him frequently. It turned out that he had such an idea. It was really... He felt sick just thinking about it.

"Don't worry, Xiaoyu. Big brother will pay attention and be careful in the future." Although Gu Jinan is already fifteen, he does not plan to get married so early. Instead, he wants to study hard for a few years and become a scholar as soon as possible. Wait until he is twenty. Think about marriage again.

Due to the madness of the previous dynasty, many literati in Da Chu got married late, and some did not start their families until they were thirty.

As he was speaking, there was the sound of a mule cart driving behind him. Gu Jinli looked back and saw it was Zhuyu, and a smile immediately appeared on his face: "Uncle Zhuyu, you are here."

"Hey, you're here, you're not late, are you?" Zhuyu stopped the mule cart, and Old Doctor Wu, Doctor Du, Du Xusheng, and Du Dingxiang got off the mule cart.

Gu Jinli smiled and said: "It's not too late, our workshop hasn't unveiled the plaque yet."

"It's not too late. If I miss your family's auspicious time, the old man will be a sinner." Old Doctor Wu said.

Gu Dashan heard the voice of old doctor Wu and hurriedly came out: "Old doctor Wu, doctor Du, you are here, please come in quickly, everyone is waiting for you."

"Come here." Old Doctor Wu said to Juyu: "Take the gifts from the car and take them to the yard."

"Okay." Dogwood responded, moved down two baskets covered with red paper, and carried them into the yard on a pole.

Gu Jinli was overjoyed when he saw the things in the basket: "Grandpa Wu, this gift you gave me really solved our urgent need."
