After traveling to ancient times, I became a superb shrew

Chapter 31
As the sun was setting, they had just arrived at the entrance of the village in an ox cart. A familiar woman ran in and said in a hurry, "Miss Gu, your husband-in-law's family is here! Go back and have a look!"

Gu Qing was stunned for a moment: "My husband-in-law's family?"

"Yeah, I brought your mother-in-law and a little girl here, and we're at the door, so go back quickly."

Gu Qing's eyes darkened for a moment, she turned around and left, Mo Li no longer had her mother's family, and Yang Pei had already bought out the original 30 taels of silver, could it be Zhu Han's family?

Zhu Han himself was taken aback, could it be that his mother is here?
A few people walked to the door of the house, and there was a long line of mushroom sellers at the door. Besides that, there were two unfamiliar faces standing there. Gu Qing thought for a long time before finding this face from his memory.

Isn't this Dong Rong's own mother?They have been separated for more than half a month, why would they come here?

The door of the house was locked, Dong Shi and Dong Rong's sister stood at the gate of the yard waiting for Gu Qing to come back.

Originally, Mrs. Dong came here this time to seek compensation from Gu Qing. Originally, she only planned to ask for ten taels.

However, seeing the thriving scene in front of her, and seeing that Gu Qing and the others were all wearing high-quality muslin new shirts, she secretly decided in her heart that ten taels of silver was enough, at least 30 taels of silver, but she would say 50 taels of silver when she opened her mouth. Two, and then reduce it to 30 taels, not afraid that Gu Qing will not agree.

When Yang Pei and the others saw Dong's face, all their movements froze.

Mrs. Dong squeezed out a smiling face: "Miss Gu, I haven't seen you for a long time, why don't you invite your aunt to sit down for a while, pour out two glasses of water, and add some sugar, my aunt likes to drink sweet things."

Everyone in the village was waiting to sell mushrooms, so Gu Qing had no choice but to invite people in.

"Gu Yu, go and pour two bowls of sugar water!" Gu Qing looked calm, "Aunt Dong, it's been hard work for you to come all the way, first sit and rest, I'll come to you when I finish my work ahead."

"Hey, you go to work first." Mrs. Dong was eager for Gu Qing to go to work, so she could keep an eye on whether Gu Qing's business was big and whether the money was too much. If there was a lot of money, she would have to add more.

The arrival of Mrs. Dong did not affect the speed of collecting mushrooms. In half an hour, all the mushrooms were collected. Recently, there was money, and the money for collecting mushrooms was settled in cash.

Dong Shi watched Gu Qing take out the money in a hurry, it made her heart ache, how much money is this!

After harvesting the mushrooms, Gu Yu took Gu Nuo to feed the chickens, Zhu Han cooked, Mo Li chopped firewood, Yang Pei didn't carry water, and stayed beside Gu Qing, fearing that Dong Shi would come up to Gu Qing just like Dong Rong. Qing hands.

Gu Qing went to Dong's side and sat down: "If you don't have anything to do, you can go to the Three Treasures Hall. Auntie came all the way here, so let's not go around around the corner. If you have something to say, just talk about it!"

Mentioning this, Mrs. Dong said angrily: "Rong'er divorced with you. The court stipulates that men who divorced cannot participate in the imperial examination. You have ruined my son's bright future. You have to pay a hundred and eighty taels of silver no matter what!"

"Why don't you go and grab it?" Yang Pei said angrily, "We haven't sued them for injuring the Patriarch, yet you still have the face to ask for compensation?"

"Injured the Patriarch, what about the injury?" Dong said confidently, "If you didn't report to the officials at the time, you would be bloody, but you can leave the book on my son. Your Patriarch ruined my son's bright future, and you must pay for it!"

"One hundred and eighty taels?" Gu Qing laughed angrily: "Do you see which husband and son-in-law in my yard is worse than your son? One hundred and eighty taels, how dare you speak!"

Yang Pei always felt that 30 taels was already a sky-high price for his parents to ask the family principal, but he didn't expect the real sky-high price to be with Dong's family.

"My family Dong Rong didn't eat well with you, didn't wear warm clothes, and was divorced by you. Now that his future is ruined, do you think 80 taels is too much?" Mrs. Dong pointed at Gu Qing's nose and scolded, "If it wasn't for you face, ruined my son's reputation, why are we here?"

"Okay!" Gu Qing didn't want to quarrel with her. Originally, this was caused by Yuanyuan, but now it can be solved with money.

Go into the room and take out 80 taels of silver from the mall and put it on the table, "Yang Pei, go and write a receipt and ask her to sign it!"

Yang Pei quickly wrote the receipt, and Dong signed it quickly in order to get the money quickly.

"The money has already been given to you. In the future, if you dare to come to ask for money again, I will take the receipt and sue you at the Yamen!" Yang Pei's words were not lacking in threats.

"Auntie understands!" Mrs. Dong said in a slow tone, "I came here this time to compensate for the first thing, and second, I told Rong'er about a marriage, just a widow in our Dongjia Village. Qian, Rong'er will be able to be the head of the family after marrying and won't bother you again..."

Before she finished speaking, Gu Qing became angry, "How could you do this?"

It's fine to charge her 80 taels, but she even married Dong Rong to a widow. Are you sure it's her own mother?
She remembered that the reason why Dong Rong was able to study was because of his parents' support, why did it become like this now?
Like a calf, Gu Nuo bumped into Dong Shi's waist.

Dong groaned, rolled and fell to the ground.

"Get out of my house quickly!" Gu Nuo yelled ferociously, "You have nothing to do with our house anymore, you are never allowed to come to our house again!"

Gu Yu said coldly: "You want to sell your son back to your Dongjia Village, don't expect my elder sister to buy it again!"

Yang Pei forcefully closed the courtyard door.

"Patriarch, how could you give her so much money!"

"Okay, don't talk about it, in the end it was indeed me who ruined Dong Rong, and Yu An is here, and I don't know when Yu An's family will come, alas!" What evil did Yuan himself do.

"When did the imperial court stipulate that people who are divorced cannot take the imperial examination, why don't I know?" Gu Qing asked.

"Just two months ago, it was said that the man who had been married and divorced had a lack of virtue and would not be admitted." Mo Li said.

No wonder, at that time, Dong Rong said that breaking up with them was forcing them to die.Thinking about it now, when Yu An was so happy when he left, he probably didn't know about it, but now the two of them must have hated her.

When Dong Rong was only three years old, he showed a strong talent for reading.

The old scholar in the village liked Dong Rong very much. Shu Xiu, who didn't charge a penny, took Dong Rong with him every day and taught him to read and write personally.

Later, when the ink in the stomach of the old scholar was finished teaching, Dong Rong went to a small private school in Youshui Town to study. After being admitted as a child student, he entered Yunshan Academy as a matter of course.

He is the youngest boy from ten miles and eight villages. All the husbands and wives say that he will definitely be a scholar this year.

Dong's favorite is the eldest son. He would rather eat bran and swallow vegetables by himself than let the eldest son study.

But it turned out that he didn't participate in the government examination, and his future was gone after being separated.How can Dong, who eats bran swallowed vegetables, accept this, and what if he can't accept it?
Finally, at the suggestion of Dong Rong's father, he went to Gu's Village to ask for compensation.

"Rong'er, it's so late, why haven't you slept yet?"

Dong Rong's expression was gloomy: "Mother, where are you going?"

"I went to your wife's house, oh, your wife is really not a thing!" Dong yelled, "I know why she divorced you, she is rich now and looks down on you, so why don't you just take advantage of you?" If you hurt her, you have to make an excuse to get married with you, and you say you are the same, how can there be no reason for a husband and wife not to consummate their marriage? Now you are doing well, your future is gone, and you are still an abandoned husband..."

Dong Yingying, the eldest daughter of the Dong family, came out of the house: "Mom, I told you not to go to Mrs. Gu, what if Mrs. Gu's shameless revenge on our family?"

"Revenge? Does she dare?" Dong's mother took out the money bag and threw it on the table: "Did you see that, as soon as the old lady stepped out, the little girl immediately obediently took out the money!"

Dong's father opened the purse and took a look: "80 taels? This little girl is really rich? She even gave 80 taels of silver!"

Hearing these words and looking at the silver on the table, Dong Rong felt a little complicated.
