Good son-in-law of the Ming Dynasty

Hearing what Su Mu said, Hu Shun was also frustrated, his head drooping.

Su Mu: "Master Hu, it's not that I don't want to help, it's really a family matter, and my nephew has no reason to ask. I just heard that there is a lot of trouble in the house, but I don't know what you plan to do in the future, sir."

Hearing Su Mu's question, Hu Shun couldn't help sighing, and after a long time, he stretched out his hand to pick up the teacup and took a sip: "That's all, that's all..."

Su Mu found that Hu Shun's wrists were covered with bruises and bloodstains from his fingernails. It can be seen that he was tortured by Mrs. Hu just now.

Hu Shun looked disappointed: "The three women all gave birth to daughters. This should be my Hu Shun's fate. The heavens will cut off the incense of my Hu family. Even if I regenerate, it will be useless. Moreover, Yinger Niang Off, I can’t go through either.”

Su Mu felt sympathetic, but he couldn't comfort him, so he got up and said, "Master Hu, I'll go see Madam first."

"Go and see Ying'er!" Hu Shun waved his hand, and when Su Mu came out of the house, he could still hear his deep sigh.

Su Mu could only reciprocate with sympathy, but there was nothing he could do to help.

When I got out of the house, I heard Zhao Hulu chatting with the concierge: "Hey, I said this gentleman. Are my master and the Hu family related?"

According to the rules of the big family, the important area of ​​the inner house is the residence of the female relatives, and outsiders are not allowed to see it.

Concierge: "No."

"Then, what is the relationship between my master and your master Hu?" Zhao Hulu was very curious and kept asking.

The concierge smiled and said: "What else can it be? Your master almost became the son-in-law of our Hu family in the past. Now...but it's hard to say..."

"Ah!" Zhao Hulu opened his mouth wide: "My master is someone who can't be someone's son-in-law."

Speaking of this, he suddenly became annoyed: "My master is a dignified man, a top-notch talent in the world, and he will become an official in the future. Your Hu family is so bold, you want him to marry, it's so disgusting!"

The concierge deliberately teased Zhao Hulu: "Why can't you marry me? Do you know the identity of our Master Hu?"

"What kind of identity is it? Is it even greater than Master Juren?"

Concierge: "To tell you the truth, my master is a dignified fourth-rank Jinyiwei experience department, and he can always be ranked in front of the emperor. If your master refuses to agree, he will be arrested and taken to the prison."

"What, you are Jin Yiwei!" Zhao Hulu yelled, cold sweat dripping down his forehead like rain: "What should I do, what should I do?"

Su Mu smiled: "Zhao Hulu, he is joking with you."

Zhao Hulu suddenly burst into tears with a "wow": "Master, you can't be a son-in-law, you can't be foolish! But we can't afford to offend Jin Yiwei!"

At this time, Mrs. Hu scolded the porter from another room: "Old Huang, what nonsense are you talking to your child!"

He took another breath, and his voice softened: "Young Master Su, please come in, I have something to say to you."

Su Mu: "Yes, Su Mu is coming to see the old lady."

Entering the room, I saw Hu Ying, mother and daughter, sitting there with angry expressions on their faces.Don't let a woman cry when she hears that her husband is cheating or her father is having an affair.These two women have strong tempers, but they don't act like weeping children.

Seeing Su Mu come in, Hu Ying slammed the door shut and said in a low voice, "Zi Qiao, come up with an idea."

"What... idea?"

Hu Ying raised her brows, "Don't pretend to be a fool."

Mrs. Hu waved her hand, and said slowly: "Su Mu, your resourcefulness is outstanding, and Ying'er's father admires you so much. If it weren't for you, he wouldn't have died many times, and he wouldn't be as famous as he is today. Appearance. Laoshen is a person who doesn't rub the sand in his eyes, you have to help me find a way to make my old non-cultivator cut off contact with the vixen outside."

Su Mu: "Ma'am, this is not appropriate..." Just kidding, this is the Hu family's housework, how can I get my mouth in as an outsider.One side is the future mother-in-law, and the other side is the future father-in-law, it is not good to offend either.

"What is not appropriate, I say it is appropriate." Mrs. Hu was very displeased: "Is there anything you can do?"

Su Mu: "There is really no way."

As he said that, he put the gift bought in Cangzhou on the case, and was about to leave this place of right and wrong.

He came to Hu's house today to express his lovesickness to Hu Ying, but the situation in front of him was helpless.It's better to hide first, and ask Miss Hu another day!

"Where are you going!" Hu Ying leaned her slender body against the door, and looked at Su Mu with a sneer: "Su Mu, you can fool others, but you can't fool me. But I know that you have a lot of tricks, if you don't want to If you find a way to cut father off from women outside, don’t even think about going out of this door.”

Su Mu sucked in a breath of air, he really didn't give up until he reached his goal, and he did what Liu Qi did to Zhuge Liang during the Three Kingdoms period.

Mrs. Hu softened her tone: "Su Mu, Ying'er's heart for you is known by her old age, and she is not for you to marry. In the future, the Hu family's property will definitely be given to you. The master has worked so hard for so many years. He has saved up this yard. He can still work in Jinyiwei for at least five years, and there is no problem in saving two to three hundred thousand taels of silver for Yinger. This is all Yinger's, but it can't be done cheaply. wild hair and weeds."

When Hu Ying heard her mother talking about herself and Su Mu, she blushed.

But Su Mu sighed, he was rich and had no interest in the Hu family's property.He also understood what Hu Ying's mother was thinking.After all, Hu Ying's mother and daughter have been in the same boat with Hu Shun for so many years, and they should inherit the family business in the future.However, the laws of the Ming Dynasty were a bit messed up in this regard, and daughters did not have the right to inherit their parents' inheritance.

To put it bluntly, if Hu Shun dies in the future and has no sons, the family business will be controlled by the clan, not Hu Ying. What Hu Ying gets is just a little dowry when she gets married.

Su Mu may not care about the property of the Hu family, but Mrs. Hu is not psychologically balanced. She works hard to raise the children and maintain the family business. In the end, others will take it all away just because they have a son.Doesn't this law speak for Xiaosan?

Depending on the situation, if I don't give Mrs. Hu an idea today, I really can't get out of this door.

Moreover, Hu Ying didn't know how to trouble herself in the future.

For my Su Mu's happiness, old man, I'm sorry.

Su Mu thought for a while: "It's not that there is no way."

Hu Ying's mother and daughter looked at each other at the same time, their eyes were full of joy.

Su Mu: "Ma'am, my nephew would like to ask, does Mr. Hu believe in things like divination and fortune-telling?"

Mrs. Hu: "My husband was born in the army, and he fought on the battlefield. He said that he can live to this day, it is all God's blessing, but he believes in this kind of thing. When buying this house, please bring I have seen Fengshui, and spent 30 taels of silver to make a great offering for Luo Tian."

"That's good." Su Mu nodded and said: "Madam can reconcile with Master Hu first, and then say that because she has no children, she wants to go to the temple to make a wish or something. Madam can buy Taoist monks in advance, preferably A well-known eminent monk has achieved great virtue. Let this eminent man tell the fortune of Master Hu and ask about his heirs."

"And then?" Madam Hu's expression changed.

Su Mu: "Then let that expert tell Mr. Hu that he is destined to have no children. Even if he takes a hundred concubines and bears a hundred children, they will all be girls. There must be something in the end, there is no time in life, don’t force it.”

"Okay, that's an idea!" Hu Ying couldn't help applauding.
