Chapter 958

She bought a lot of land, and usually left it to Feng to handle it, and seldom did it herself.

The old lady Zhou said: "It's because of the land. That piece of land doesn't belong to the Zhou family, it belongs to my Chang family. Where are the tombs of my grandparents and parents? The old lady thought, if you want to buy that piece of land , I have to help the old lady look after some of the family's graves, I'm afraid you won't like it, and I want to see you and talk about it."

Mrs. Zhou is an only daughter, but Mr. Zhou is not willing to be the son-in-law, and Mrs. Zhou’s father is an old friend with Zhou’s father, and he doesn’t want the son of an old friend to be his son-in-law, so he proposed that if he had two sons, he would adopt one of them. Chang family.

Mr. Zhou agreed, but he was short-lived. He died before the second son came out.

When he died, he left his last words, saying that Boss Zhou should go back to Zhongzhou when he grows up, and Zhongzhou is their ancestral land.

Therefore, Boss Zhou gave up everything in He'an Mansion and went to Zhongzhou according to Mr. Zhou's last wish.

Mrs. Zhou was very angry, because this matter was caused by her own son for more than ten years. Now that she is older, she also figured it out after being ill last year, so she is willing to sell the house to Gu Jinli. Zhongzhou defected to his son.

Selling the house and land can be regarded as Mrs. Zhou's favor to her son.

But the tombs of my grandparents and parents cannot be moved so soon, and I have to choose a day to beg for the bones, so Gu Jinli is required to help take care of them.

At this point, Mrs. Zhou burst into tears: "The old woman is unfilial and wronged her grandparents and parents, but the living can't live for the dead."

She has been stubborn with her son for more than ten years, and if she continues to be stubborn, she is afraid that she will never see her son even if she dies.

After Gu Jinli heard this, he was very angry with Mrs. Zhou's son. This man treats his mother so poorly for his father's sake, and he is not filial.

But Mrs. Zhou had already decided to go to her son, so she didn't say much, so she agreed: "Don't worry, I will send people to pay respects to the old people of Chang's family every year and festival, until your house moves. You can go to Zhongzhou without worry."

There is another point that Gu Jinli doesn't understand...

"Grandma Zhou, Zhongzhou is not peaceful. You have sold all the property in He'an Mansion. If something happens in the future, it will be more difficult to return to He'an Mansion."

After hearing this, Mrs. Zhou was very pleased: "Girl, you can remind the old woman of this sentence, so you can see that you have a conscience, but you are young, so I don't know what those aristocratic families are thinking... My grandfather and father are both from the previous dynasty. , They know that those aristocratic families are eager for chaos, they have already prepared, you don't have to worry about the old lady."

Her son is a guest of the wealthy family, and he told her as early as three years ago: If chaos really breaks out, he can only survive by relying on the protection of the wealthy family. Can't keep it.

After Gu Jinli listened, she didn't say any more, she had already reminded what should be reminded.

The Zhou family is in a very good location on the outskirts of the city. There is an avenue in front and a hill behind. People are not afraid to stay in Wubao for a period of time.As long as you resist, you can escape into the mountains.

The Zhou family's land is not small, with a total of [-] mu including hills, but because most of it is dry land and mountainous land, and the rich families in the south of the Yangtze River and Huaihe River like paddy fields, so they were not snatched by the rich people.

Mrs. Zhou was grateful to Gu Jinli, and the price she gave her was very fair, as long as three taels of silver per mu, and 400 mu of land, two thousand and four hundred taels was enough.

Gu Jinli couldn't be happier. After giving the money, he immediately asked Erqing to transfer the title deed, and happily took the title deed home before noon.

But not long after she was happy, Daqing came to report: "Little boss, four groups of people in the city have come to Lu Bo, wanting him to continue using filial piety to attack the young master."

Among the four groups of people, there is an old Hanlin who has become an official. He is very pedantic. He thinks that although Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu are wrong, it is also unfilial for Gu Dashan to deny him because of this.

As the grandson of Gu Jin'an, he watched Mr. Gu being kicked out of He'an Mansion without saving others, and he was about to be struck by lightning!

One is Mr. Shi, a self-proclaimed madman from a famous family. He looks down on Gu Jinan and other mud-legged people who escaped from the famine, and doesn't want Gu Jinan to get the name of "Little Sanyuan".

There are also two groups of people from the Xue family and the Ge family in Fucheng. Both of them have candidates who have taken the government examination, and they also rushed to the head of the government case. Knowing that Gu Jinan is well educated, they want to pull him away in terms of personal morality down.

Gu Jinli was very speechless: "It's just a government test, not Chunwei, so what?"

After Gu Jinan learned about it, he smiled and said, "Do you still remember why the Zou Jiang family got into trouble back then? Isn't it because they were talented and famous and were envied by Zou Xiancheng. The scientific examination is very important to everyone. Whose family They all want to grab a place, so of course they use all kinds of means, and every time a scientific examination takes place, some candidates will suffer disasters for no reason, or get sick, or have their hands and feet interrupted."

And many of these are man-made, just to kill those talented candidates, so that they cannot take the scientific examination, so that they can have more opportunities.After all, the number of people admitted to the imperial examination is limited. If you kill one, you may be on the list.

After hearing this, Gu Jinli sneered and said, "If that's the case, then don't blame us."

She wants to suppress people with filial piety, but she doesn't believe that all of the four groups of people's families are filial sons!

Gu Jinli was never a talkative person, so he immediately asked Daqing and the others to investigate the dirty things in the back houses of the four families, and found a lot of them in less than three days.

The old Hanlin doted on his concubine and killed his wife. When he was in the Imperial Academy in the capital, he didn't come back to visit his seriously ill father-in-law because of his concubine's fetal gas. As a result, he not only didn't see his father-in-law for the last time, but also missed his father-in-law's funeral. It's unfilial!

Although the father-in-law is not a real father, the son-in-law must be filial.

After the storyteller told this story, everyone in Fucheng knew about it, and they all scolded the old Hanlin for being obsessed with his concubine, and he didn't even care about his father-in-law's life and death.

That Mr. Shi, relying on his good background and his love of madman behavior, raped a young girl in the south of the Yangtze River. Although it was settled with money, it would not delay Mr. Storyteller's storytelling. The debt was talked about for several days in turn.

The Xue family and the Ge family are not much better. Young Master Xue is still discussing marriage with the Yu family in Fucheng because he made his cousin's belly bigger.

The object of marriage negotiation was still Mrs. Yu's granddaughter, who made Mrs. Yu angry, and directly withdrew from the Xue family. The Xue family came to the door crying for peace, but was beaten out by the Yu family.

The Ge family has many brothers, and each of them wants to share more of the family property. Each house is afraid of losing money, so desperately hugging the money from the father-in-law made the old man of the Ge family mad.

The unfilial matter of the Ge family was also brought up by the storyteller.

The four families took turns talking, saying that the four families were worse than death, and they were still talking about the four families until the day when the rankings were released on April [-]th.

Gu Jinli listened to the gossip for a few days with relish, but he didn't have time to listen to it on April [-]th, so he got up early and waited for the announcement.
