Over at the Village School, Zhou Xiucai brought Da Jiang back as it was almost time for Shen Zheng to finish school. Without him to teach, this afternoon's class was not easy.

In Gu Wenxuan's opinion, this is a very responsible master. Even if he misses class in the afternoon, he has already arranged for talented students to talk about how to solve problems.

During the two classes in the afternoon, this senior brother who kept his filial piety at home and prepared for the provincial examination had been digging out practical things, even taking a quarter-hour break between classes.

You want him to say that Gu Dalang's mistake was because of his excessive vanity, and he wanted to save face and suffered, and he was not good at studying in the village? I couldn't stay in the county anymore, so I had to transfer to a private school in the town.

It's not that he has any prejudice against the school in the town. Everyone has a sense of teamwork, and it's not that he is extremely academically talented. The transfer student will have to adapt to it for a while.

His father had not discussed these concerns with the old man before, but it was a pity that some people had a guilty conscience, as if they were afraid that his father would dislike Gu Dalang for spending a lot of money.

He didn't know if Gu Dalang regretted not listening to his father's advice to go back to the village to study and prepare for the exam after the separation. Anyway, he had not yet stepped foot into his house.

He went back to Zhou's house with Dajiang Xiaohe, paid some attention to Zhou Shun, and mentioned that he was short of money at the end of the year and just asked Zhou Banxia for money, and went home without staying any longer.

He knew that since his father-in-law exchanged land with the Ma family, he had purchased more than forty acres, making up a hundred acres of farmland, and only had twenty taels of silver at most.

This time, repairing the tomb, erecting a stele and engraving words was a bit decent, and it was estimated that at least ten taels of silver would be spent, but he still didn't ask his wife to complain about her poverty.

No matter what, his father-in-law is still a decent person, not a tiny bit better than the previous one.

It was Ban Xia, who was also a daughter, who made great efforts. She said she would not interfere in her children's marriage. If she hadn't been so strong, her father would have sold her out on the grounds that it was good for her.

It's not like the father-in-law now, who still wholeheartedly redeems his daughter when he knows that it is definitely more beneficial for her to be a concubine in any high house than to return home to her parents' family.

Even if someone asked him to help with a few words, for the safety of his daughter, he was very clear-headed and unwavering, unlike the man who took the huge pension money given by his wife every month and had no worries about food and clothing, and was still running here to play. For a few days, he cleverly secretly received benefits from him and his wife.

Unlike today's father-in-law, although it is related to the background of marrying and obeying the husband in that era, he has never asked his daughter for more than half of the money. He is also worried that his uncle will be dissatisfied with his daughter and can insist on not subsidizing it.

His love for his daughter was not a little bit empty, and Gu Wenxuan accepted the gift without hesitation. It was time for the people in the village to take a good look at his father-in-law's character.

His father-in-law was quite stingy, but he would never show mercy when he should be generous, and he was not a man who wanted to sell his daughters for glory. One of his two daughters would marry well.

Maybe he was showing off too much. Gu Wenxuan, who was caught by Aunt Gu on the way, couldn't laugh or cry. Why did someone come to his Aunt to propose marriage to Dajiang?

Gu Yuling also knew that all her words were in vain, but this time the person who came to her was no ordinary person, it was her sister-in-law, who wanted her to see what Liulang's wife was thinking.

What can I think about? It’s not whether the little girl from whose family is pretty, whether she is filial, whether she is literate, whether she can work, and whether she is worthy of Dajiang.

After all, for one reason, before Da Jiang finished his scientific examination, his wife had no intention of letting Da Jiang see any girl.

Gu Yuling guessed that it was the same thing. As a nephew-in-law, she didn't care if she married lowly if she was capable, but she might not be happy to marry her younger sister-in-law.

Who knows that Dajiang is a popular person now, but in the same way, Xiangfu's sister must be looking for an eldest daughter-in-law who can help Dajiang, the eldest son, support his family.

Gu Wenxuan firmly denied this. Even if he did think so in his heart, he was not worried that Dajiang would not be able to find a good wife who he liked and could not admit it.

"Okay, I still don't know if Sanya can take over half of the family. I know how to explain it to her. But you can do it. You don't have to worry about food and drink anymore."

After saying this, Gu Wenxuan shook his head and smiled. There was no one on the road, "You don't have to worry about food and drink. Your nephew is already well-off."

"When you get rich, don't forget to promote me, your old lady. I'm still poor."

"My uncle owns a grocery store, but he is still poor?" "Why, Sanya didn't say anything and kept letting me come to the house to play. Are you not happy?" Gu Yuling raised her fist.

"Oh no, no matter who you forget when good things happen, I will never forget you, even your nephew."

This old lady is good at everything, except that she likes to use her hands and feet!

It’s ugly, even though it’s getting dark, you can actually see people, and it’s easier for people to misunderstand if they mess around on the road.

"You must be honest."

"Is my uncle busy lately?"

"The grocery store is still the same, so it will be busier at the end of the year."

Gu Yuling pushed her nephew, "I'll go to your house first, and then go to your grandparents' place."

You should have said it earlier, it’s so cold on the road, and if there’s anything you can’t go back to your parents’ house to talk about, you have to catch him on the way. Don’t worry if his wife gets home after not seeing him for a long time.

"I don't know what your grandfather is thinking about. How far can the town be from home? He also wants to rent a house for Dalang for a while. Don't look for a suitable one anywhere.

I went to town this morning, and your aunt told me that your grandfather was trying to cause trouble again.

Your aunt is so angry that your grandpa is crying. He co-operated with her family to sell pork and even wronged his eldest grandson.

Why don't you say it's not quiet? Da Lang lives in her place, and your eldest uncle has specially set aside a room for her. The whole family doesn't dare to speak loudly for fear of disturbing his study. "

"..."

What's silly is that the aunt who used to be resolute and resolute has finally fallen into a trap! Gu Wenxuan didn't want to talk anymore.

"Your aunt is so stubborn. She has a daughter-in-law living with her at home, so why not leave the elder to live at home? It's not like she can't live in the school.

It's just that the accommodation is poor, and I can't bear the hardship. I have to squeeze into your aunt's house.

Your aunt also said that your grandfather came to tell your eldest uncle that it was not easy to push back.

I think your father is too busy recently to scold her, and she is confused again. She doesn't live in her house even if she doesn't care about what your brother is doing, so she is afraid of embarrassment to her.

I was so angry that she said it was not a problem. Da Lang left school early and came home late, so he stayed at her house after school. It was just that his kindness was not rewarded. She did not expect him to be grateful and disliked her. "

"Should!"

Gu Yuling was stunned for a moment, laughed, and slapped her nephew. Only then did she realize that the cloak his nephew was wearing was not cotton at all, but some kind of satin?

This old lady, how old she is, even touched it with her hands!

Gu Wenxuan was so frightened that he quickly jumped out of the mule cart and threw the whip to Uncle Cai who came out to greet him.

It seems that I have to bring the little book boy with me on weekdays. Wife, your husband and I almost lost my innocence.

Ok?

If there is any big happy event in the family, my dad will sing those lines back and forth.

"Sister-in-law is happy." Hearing what Gu Wenxuan said was so funny, Zhou Banxia almost forgot to report the good news in time, "The time is still short, so it's hard to announce it to the outside world."
