Chapter 179
When Qi Yougui arrived home, Nanny Liu and the other three servants and maidservants had already left, and only his wife, son, and daughter-in-law were left to clean up the rest of the house.

Talking about the remaining things, it is just a matter of tidying up the banquets that have been withdrawn from the main house, and the tables, stools, dishes and other things that the attendants of the county officials and attendants eat.Due to the large number of people eating, many items were borrowed from neighbors and returned to them after cleaning.

The few children in the family have been restrained by Mrs. Wang, doing work in the corner.At this time, all the guests had left, so I had time to come out, heat up the food, and eat this late lunch.

Qi Yougui walked two more steps in, and saw helplessly that there were still a few people sitting in the upper room.In addition to my own family, all the adults and children of Sanfang were preparing for lunch.

Seeing Qi Yougui coming back, Mrs. Wang rushed to meet him, but before she could enter the room, she hurriedly asked, "We don't dare to go near the upper room. I wonder what the county magistrate is talking to you?"

Qi Yougui said as he walked: "Where can we talk to adults and gentry? The second brother and Ye Zi are the ones who can talk. The second brother's sworn brother is not an idle person. It is very difficult to ask the county magistrate. Be calm and calm, not as awkward as us farmers."

When Qi Yougui said this, he had already entered the upper hall.

When Qi Yourong heard his elder brother mention Zhang Wusi, he immediately became annoyed, and said, "Why did your elder brother allow that barbarian to come into our house? He fought with your brother and me before. You forgot? You should kick him out immediately! "

"That's what the county magistrate called for questioning, so I can decide?" Qi Yougui glared at him, took off his shoes and got on the kang, and said, "If you calm down a bit, there will be so many things. Why are you so talkative?" What about owe? Will you die if you say a few unpleasant words?"

Seeing Qi Yougui on the kang, Mrs. Song quickly slipped down from the kang, and complained following Qi Yougui's words: "That's right, we used to get along well with the second elder brother's family, but my old man made such a fuss that we couldn't see each other anymore. Eldest brother told second elder brother that we are still blood brothers, we have a bond of blood that others don't, don't hurt the harmony of our relatives because of some trivial things."

The people in the second room now see their family, that is the attitude of not knowing each other.In addition, there are more cold-faced servants from those big families in his family, they just want to post it, but they have no chance.

Qi Yougui said angrily: "You think I didn't say it? Yourong, and your family, which one seems to want to get along with others? Needless to say, Yourong, every time we get together, don't It seems that the second child is unfilial and does not provide for the parents until the end of their lives, so it seems that they will make life difficult. And your two sons and daughter-in-law, "

Annoyed, Qi Yougui looked at the two sons and daughter-in-law of the third house one by one, and continued, "There are many things wrong with the arrangement of the second house, and it is even a joke to Ye Zi, saying that Ye Zi hangs among a group of men all day long, does not obey women's morals, and does not do good things... ..."

Qi Yougui pointed at the third house with his fingers in disbelief, "There are a lot of idle women in the village, and they are very talkative. You think the second house and the whole family are idiots. I don't know what you are talking about? They don't bother to talk to you."

Mrs. Zhang, who was standing on the ground, was still unconvinced and defended: "People often say that you are not afraid of the shadow if you are upright. If Ye Zi of his family behaves well, why are you afraid of others?"

Mrs. Wang stepped into the door with a pot of vegetables, and said with a sneer: "People also say that saliva can drown people. Your family and the eldest and second wife are blood relatives, and even the blood relatives are the first to say that Ye Zi is not a woman. People who don't believe think you know the inside story, and they will believe it for nothing.

It's right for people to ignore your family, at least some people will turn around in their hearts, wondering if it's because your two families don't get along well, and you are threatening private revenge, so you are talking nonsense.If your family is talking about Ye Zi like this, and the second room returns to your family to have a good time, wouldn't it be a case of Ye Zi's crime? "

Mrs. Song opened her mouth, but didn't say a word of excuse.

That heartless Qi Yourong poked his head to look at the dishes brought by Mrs. Wang, and said in a low voice, "I saw that old woman from the second family's family brought a car and unloaded it in the middle of the afternoon. There are a lot of delicious food, all of which are vegetables and meat that we farmers are reluctant to buy during the festival."

After looking at the vegetable bowl, he said to Mrs. Wang: "Sister-in-law, we are a family, you can't hide your secrets. I watched so many things unloaded, and there was a lot of food. How can those people eat. "

Faced with Qi Yourong like this, Wang was also helpless: "Let the younger siblings go to the kitchen to watch, as long as there is leftover food for today, your family will take half of it."

Mrs. Xu, Mrs. Han, and Meizi are serving hot meals to the table.

Mrs. Zhang stopped Qi Yourong who was about to use his chopsticks immediately after hearing what Mrs. Zhang said, and said to Mrs. Song: "Mother, our family still has a lot of work to do. How about we divide the food and go home, and eat sooner, and we can eat sooner." It’s better to do things early.”

Song seemed very tempted by her daughter-in-law's proposal.

Wang's face showed disdain, because she felt that there were too many people in the big house, and she was afraid that her family would suffer.

But Qi Yourong said, "No, I have to ask, does the county magistrate have any benefits for brother Xu and the second child's family. Ask first and then talk."

Mrs. Wang said impatiently: "What's the matter, come up with an accurate idea. My family has been busy since morning, and Shui Mi hasn't brushed his teeth yet."

"Let's eat at the eldest brother's house." Qi Yourong made a decision, turned around and scolded Song Shi: "You stupid woman, you don't know what kind of thoughts you have every day. Will the eldest brother and sister-in-law make our family suffer?"

Judging from what Qi Yourong said, it's not that he is confused about everything.

Mrs. Wang laughed all of a sudden, and said to Mrs. Zhang: "Dongzi's daughter-in-law, although there are many children in my family, most of them are working outside, and few are at home. Don't worry about your nephew and daughter-in-law not having enough food."

Both the Song family and the Zhang family had a bad face, and the eldest family got so many benefits because they got along well with the second family, and the four children all worked in the county to earn money.

On the other hand, Ponzi has always kept his attitude of not having anything to do with himself and keeping quiet. He only hugged his son, ready to put down his chopsticks at any time, and give his son a full meal.

Two old men and two sons from each family sat on the kang.Although Qi Yougui sat down with Jin Rong and others for a full meal, he didn't eat much.He moved his chopsticks first.

Beside the table on the ground were Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Song, sitting with their daughters-in-law and children, and they also started eating with chopsticks.

Under Qi Yourong's repeated questioning, Qi Yougui briefly repeated what Jiang Yifan and Jin Rong said back and forth.

While eating, Qi Yourong lamented that such a good meal would not be perfect without some wine to cheer him up, and he couldn't help but say with regret: "Since Mr. Rong Liu and Mr. Magistrate are close to the second family, why don't they promise some benefits? A good opportunity, but only made a good meal, really wasting the opportunity."

Qi Yougui said angrily: "You have shallow eyelids, what benefits can you see? Not to mention that Ye Zi didn't lose the slightest bit when he responded to Mr. Jiang and Mr. Rong Liu. As for what Mr. Jiang said outside, who would take it easy?" Dare to find your second brother's house? The benefits are big enough."
