Pick up a daughter-in-law to farm

Chapter 641

After dinner, it was snowing lightly, so Zhang Sanhu asked Ding Xizai to come over, and several big men played their Pai Gow again. The four of them played hide-and-seek in the house...

But at this moment, the village chief came.

Seeing Zhang Changshan come out even after snowing, everyone felt very strange.

Zhuang Daniu got up immediately: "Uncle Village Chief, why are you here? Come and sit down."

All the men in the village knew how to play Pai Gow, Zhang Changshan came over when he saw that everyone was playing with heart, and sat down on his buttocks: "How to play?"

Zhuang Daniu immediately said with a smile: "It's a small game, a copper."

If you play for one copper for a day, you can only win or lose twenty or thirty coppers. This is a harmless idle life.

Zhang Changshan said with a smile: "Okay, it's good to have fun like this."

The village head took over the seat, and Zhuang Daniu naturally became the escort.

After Sang Yue brewed tea and served fruits, the game of poker would naturally start again.

Zhuang Daniu didn't think that the village chief came here to find a match, and sure enough, after a hand of cards, he said, "Daniu, last time you talked about harvesting spring bamboo shoots, everyone asked when will it start."

The growth period of spring bamboo shoots is about half a month before Qingming, and there is still more than a month from now.

Since someone is asking now, it seems that someone really wants to make some money from here.

"Uncle Village Chief, I will ask Uncle Shuanglin to make bamboo shoot boxes in two days. Please tell everyone that we will start collecting bamboo shoots half a month before Qingming Festival. According to the price agreed a year ago, we will charge as much as we can."

With these words, Zhang Changshan was relieved: "Okay, then I know, so that I don't have a clue when they come to ask."

Once it's settled, everyone will concentrate on playing cards.

Unexpectedly, I didn't concentrate on hitting ten times, and someone came: "Daniu, is your village chief uncle at home?"

Seeing that it was Uncle Chang Ming, Zhuang Daniu came out immediately: "Uncle, the village head uncle is here, can I ask him for something?"

Zhang Changming had an indescribable expression on his face: "Brother, sister-in-law said she was not feeling well."

As soon as he heard that Su Cuilian was not feeling well, Zhang Changshan didn't get up immediately, his face was indescribably gloomy, and he didn't stand up until he finished playing a hand of cards: "Da Niu, you play."

He wanted to keep him for dinner, but Zhuang Daniu stopped talking at this point, and only then sat down again after sending the village chief and his brothers out.

I thought today was a day for fighting, but it didn't turn out to be a snowy day and people came and went.

When Mu Da came in, he saw that he was in a mess, and Mu Si was startled: "Brother, what's wrong with you?"

After being called by Mu Siyi, everyone saw Mu Da's appearance, and immediately stood up one by one: "What happened?"

"Muda, who did you fight with?"

Mu Da's face was gloomy: "The members of the Qiao family came, and Xiao Wan was taken away by them."

what?
In an instant, Mu Si yelled at Mu: "Are you fighting with them? Why didn't you know to bring your sister-in-law here quickly?"

"You can't escape, so hurry up and call for someone! They think that there is no one around us, don't they? They dare to blatantly rob people, this is really lawless!" Ding Xizai also felt that this brother was too rigid Yes, although Mu Da is not weak in hand, but two fists are no match for four hands, and a hero can't stand the crowd!
Didn't this brother become a fool once they got married?
Mu Da had injuries all over his face, not to mention his body.

At this time, what hurt him the most was not the injury on his body, but that his wife had just entered the house and the sweet life had just begun, and she was snatched away.

He is so useless!
Her eyes were full of hatred: "There were too many of them, and I didn't have time to react, so they rushed up! They also said that if Xiaowan didn't go back with them, they would beat me to death. Seeing that I was beaten, Xiaowan had to beg I…"

Thinking of his daughter-in-law's desperate appearance, Mu Da's heart clenched!
Why, why is he so useless that he can't even protect his own wife?
It was because he was useless that Huang Caihua thought of a way to escape, right?
It cannot be said that Huang Caihua did not leave traces in Mu Da's heart, nor does it mean that he is still thinking about her, but when happiness comes, Mu Da knows what happiness will look like when marrying a young daughter-in-law who lives with him at ease.

Seeing the hatred on Mu Da's face, Zhuang Daniu knew what he was thinking.

Afraid that Mu Da would be too impulsive, Zhuang Daniu raised his hand: "Everyone stopped talking, Brother Mu, tell me, what request did the Qiao family make!"

As soon as this request was mentioned, Mu Da hated it even more: "Xiaowan's relatives said that the owner who bought Xiaowan made their brothers pay 20 taels of silver for her escape. They spent a lot of manpower and material resources to find her. If I want to take her back, I will send 100 taels of silver to Chenqiaogou, otherwise they will sell her into a kiln!"

100 taels of silver?
When Sang Yue heard this number, her eyes immediately turned to the sky: This uncle of the Qiao family, isn't he ambitious?
It is said that Qiao Xiaowan was secretly sold by them for ten taels of silver at that time, and the compensation was doubled for 20 taels because of breach of contract, but when it came to Mu University, it became 100 taels?
Either this person is crazy about money, or he has a brain problem!
——Although Master Mu has been repaired neatly now, but after all, there are two thatched huts. Could it be someone who can afford 100 taels of silver?
However, Sang Yue was glad that Qiao's family wanted 100 taels instead of 20 taels, otherwise, with Mu's enthusiasm for loving his daughter-in-law, she might have shaken her pockets on the spot!

It's not that Qiao Xiaowan is not worth 20 taels of silver, but that the Qiao family is not worthy!

An uncle who sells his niece, they are not even worthy of being human, how can they deserve 20 taels of silver?
Just when Sang Yue complained that Qiao's family didn't know the heights of heaven and earth, Mu Si put on his shoes and was about to go out: "Brother, they must not have run far now, let's snatch sister-in-law back!"

But Mu Da shook his head: "There are more than [-] people in their group, and they are all relatives of your sister-in-law. This time they snatched them back, but what about next time?"

Mu Si's face darkened: "Then what are you going to do?"

Mu Da looked sad: "I...I want to borrow money from the village chief...I want Daniel to be my guarantor..."

"What?" Mu Si jumped up: "Borrow 100 taels of silver and send it to Qiao's house? Brother, are you being fooled by someone? Once you carry the 100 taels of silver on your back, can you pay it back in this lifetime?"

With a debt of 100 taels, he has to pay off the debt for the rest of his life.

But for the sake of his daughter-in-law not being harassed by the clansmen, no matter how hard and tiring he suffers, it is worth it!

Mu Da had a painful expression on his face: "Fourth brother, I'm sorry for you! Let's split up today. We still have 20 taels of silver at home. I will leave you 15 taels. I will build two houses for you in May and June. At that time, you can buy a daughter-in-law to live in."

As soon as these words fell, Mu Si blushed with anger, and stared at his elder brother like a little leopard for a moment: "Brother, what do you mean? You think I don't want you to save sister-in-law? It's just that you still have to pay back the money." Let’s not talk about it at first, do you want my sister-in-law to live a life of hardship with you?”
