The road of the farmer's fortune and the imperial examination

Chapter 267

I saw Aunt Wang glanced into the courtyard and saw that the door of the second room was closed, so she must not be at home.She sat down on the original stool again, "Changqing's family, I have something to say, and I don't know if I should say it or not!"

When Mrs. Lu saw that Aunt Wang was staying, she felt that she must have something to say, "Is there anything we can't say? Tell me!"

In the past two years, Aunt Wang and the Gu family have gotten very close, and Mrs. Lu and Aunt Wang also got along very well.

"Doesn't Wang Yueniang live in front of my house? It's not far from the foot of the mountain. I've seen something a little strange these days." Aunt Wang whispered to Mrs. Lu.

Although Wang Yueniang and Aunt Wang were not at odds, they used to quarrel when they met, but after Wang Yueniang's man died, Aunt Wang felt sorry for her, and when they met, she mostly let her go.

Aunt Wang's words aroused Lu's curiosity. Wang Yueniang used to say bad things about her, and Lu knew about her. Now that she was talking about her, she immediately became interested.

"What's wrong?" A widow, if it's wrong, wouldn't it be what she thought?
"I saw a man go in from her house. The last time I found out, it was when it was getting dark. When the man went in, I kept paying attention. He left after dark and at dawn."

"Could it be your eyesight? It's so late at night, it's possible to see too!" Mrs. Lu suspected that it was Aunt Wang's eyesight, after all, it was a big night.

"Can I be dazzled? The moon was so bright that day, and besides, the door of Wang Yueniang's house was very loud. I knew when she opened and closed the door." Seeing that Mrs. Lu didn't believe it, Aunt Wang hurriedly patted her chest to assure her.

"Oh! I don't know who it is! It's only been more than two years! No wonder I saw Wang Yueniang once, and found that she looked pretty good, and she was not badly dressed. She didn't look like someone who was short of food and clothing. There is a wild man!"

Although this matter is disgraceful, it is also a family matter. As a woman, she has to live with her son, and Lu Shi did not expect to publicize it everywhere in the village.

"That's right, let me tell you! There's more than one! I see that the two are from the village, and one of them is very familiar with us."

"What? How is that possible? Who is that?" Mrs. Lu felt shocked. It's fine to steal one man, but why are there two?That Wang Yueniang is really shameless.If you really want a man, then find someone and remarry, why would you want to steal?

"I'm not sure about one, and the other I think looks like your second child. I saw his face, and he sometimes comes during the day!" Aunt Wang glanced at Mrs. Lu, hesitated for a moment, and then said the matter said.

"What? The second child?" Lu's face was dull, she couldn't imagine that the second child would fall in love with Wang Yueniang.Wang Yueniang was indeed pretty when she was young, but now she is already a half-old lady.In farmers' families, the women are exposed to the wind and sun, even if they have two parts of beauty, it is also said that the scorching sun and the wind in the field make their skin dark and dry.

"I'm not sure who that is, but I can see your second child for real! He's so crazy, during these days, he even dared to sneak in from the side of the mountain during the daytime!"

Lu gritted her teeth angrily, "Then Wang Yueniang is really shameless, how can the second child do such a thing?" Women usually have zero tolerance for this kind of thing, and if they take a concubine, they can only bear it silently, but Stealing people is going to soak the pig cage.

"Let me tell you, your little treasure has been selected as a scholar, and he will take the Juren and Jinshi exams in the future! Don't let people know about this! Otherwise, the reputation of the Gu family will be rotten. Besides, there are many scholars in your family." Woolen cloth!"

"Wang Yueniang, who killed a thousand knives, why did he come to harm our Gu family? He even stole two men. How is this different from the women in that place?"

The Lu family despises this kind of woman. Although she knows that Wang Yueniang is living a hard life with a baby alone, but she is not the only widow in this world. If they all steal people like her, wouldn't everything be messed up?
Originally, she didn't care about this matter, not to mention the benefits, and it would cause a lot of trouble, but now she can't care about it!No, she had to tell the old man.

This second child looks shrewd and has shallow eyelids.After splitting up so much money, and the soap dividends at the end of the year, I can't find any kind of woman, so why are you looking for Wang Yueniang?
"I'm so ashamed for her too, she's really shameless!" Aunt Wang couldn't understand such a woman the most, so she told the matter, and Aunt Wang got up and said goodbye.

"I would also like to thank you for telling me. Don't worry, I won't tell others that you told me about this." Of course, Mrs. Lu couldn't bring Aunt Wang into it. Sometimes Wang Yueniang is like a mad dog, who catches and bites .

"Even if I say it, I'm not afraid. I just saw it, and I'm not talking nonsense! Then I'll go home first." Aunt Wang stood up and said goodbye.

After Aunt Wang left, Mrs. Lu fell into deep thought. She still had to discuss a countermeasure with the old man on this matter.The second child can no longer have an affair with Wang Yueniang. This matter involves the reputation of the Gu family, and she cannot let it go.

"Old lady, do you want to ask the old man to come back and set the meal?" At this time, the old woman came in and asked Mrs. Lu if she wanted to set the meal.

The mother-in-law's surname is Li, about forty years old, and she knows how to cook and eat. She used to be in charge of cooking in the kitchen of a wealthy family, so Gu Chengyu was transferred here to clean up the house and cook at home.

"Then go find the old man first, and call him back for dinner." The meal will be finished soon, and Old Man Gu won't go far.

"I'm here, don't call me." At this moment, Old Man Gu just entered the main room from the courtyard.

"I have something to tell you." Mrs. Lu couldn't wait to tell Father Gu about it.

"Mother! But can we eat?" Gu Wan's voice came from outside the courtyard again, then Gu Wan lifted the curtain and came in, followed by Gu Chengyu.

"What's the matter?" Papa Gu asked suspiciously.

Lu originally wanted to say something, but when she saw her son and daughter coming, she had no choice but to shut up.

"Let's talk after dinner!"

Father Gu wanted to ask again, but was winked at by Mrs. Lu, so he could only suppress the question in his heart.

Gu Chengyu didn't ignore the eyebrow-eye lawsuit between the two, and he didn't know what was going on to hide it from him and his second sister.But it might be because it's not suitable for children, so he didn't ask too much, but he didn't expect that this incident would cause a big mess in Gu's family.

"Father! I'm going to buy some land. Don't I have [-] acres of tax-free land under my name? I'll buy [-] acres and [-] acres of family land." At the dinner table, Gu Chengyu explained his plans.

"If you have money, it's best to buy more land. No matter what time it is, buying land is the least risky. I can't handle so much. It seems that I have to hire a few more people."

Father Gu is very happy with Gu Chengyu's awareness that if he has money, he must hoard land. For him, no land is good for any business.Speaking of this, my whole body is full of energy.

"You can buy some servants to take care of it, and you can also hire tenant farmers. If Dad is not afraid of trouble, you can hire a few long-term workers!"
