Rebirth Farmer Yaomei

Chapter 83 Filial Piety
Ning Wan returned home and waved her hands to Auntie, Chun Ling, and Luo Shuang'er and said with a smile, "It's all right now, let's hurry up and get to work!"

There were too many mountain goods at home, and she was a bit overwhelmed. She weighed a bag of roasted hazelnuts and sent them to the warehouse. Seeing that the hemp rope that tied the bag was gone, Ning Wan took it Make a bundle, and tie the mouth of the bag tightly so that the hazelnuts do not scatter.Unexpectedly, when he turned around, he almost bumped into someone, patted his chest and complained: "Brother Xiaoliu, why don't you make a sound at all, you scared me!"

Xiao Liuyuan didn't expect Ning Wan to turn around and come out after tying the bag, so she was also frightened, and quickly took a step back, "It's as long as you are fine."

"What can I do?" Ning Wan asked but suddenly understood, brother Xiao Liu kept staring at the hemp rope in his hand, and laughed, "Are you afraid that I will hide and hang myself?"

Xiao Liu scratched her head embarrassingly, "Two years ago, there was a girl in the town who was divorced by her husband's family, and then she hanged herself. I heard people say that her tongue sticks out... Aren't I afraid that you won't be able to think about it for a while? "

"People who spread rumors can think about it, why can't I think about it?"

Sure enough, Xiao Liu was questioned, but he was still worried that the girl who hanged herself was actually his second aunt who had played with him since childhood.When she was divorced, she didn't say anything, and continued to finish the half-made shoes for her fiancé. She didn't want to die in the middle of the night.

So he solemnly said to Ning Wan: "If you can't get married because of the bad reputation of retiring, I can marry you." Seeing Ning Wan's eyes widen suddenly, he was very surprised, so he comforted her and said: " I really like you, if you marry me, I will treat you well."

"You are really a kind person," Ning Wan felt more and more funny, but she also understood Xiao Liu's concern for her, and her heart warmed up, "Thank you, but I am still young, and I am not in a hurry to get married."

Xiao Liu scratched her head again, "Alright then, I'll go back to work in the East Wing."

At dinner, Ning Liang accompanied the guests. Although Wang Carpenter and his son were invited to make furniture, according to the customs of Sanjia Village, they were still treated as guests, so the Ning family had more abundant meals these days.Ning Wan arranged the food and drinks one by one, then smiled at Xiao Liu, although there are bad people like Guo Xiaoyan in the world, but there are also good people like Xiao Liu!

Just after putting away the bowls and chopsticks, someone knocked on the courtyard door. It turned out that the village head and his wife brought Hu Qi and Mrs. Hu Qi.

Carpenter Wang hurriedly took his son who was sitting still back to the wing room, and taught him again, "We are doing the work, just do the carpentry well, and try not to participate in the business of the master." Pointing at his son, he said, "If only you worked so hard as a carpenter, I've been with you for so long, and I can't even make a chair!"

But the Hu family said as soon as they entered the door: "I just heard that something like this happened, it's all our family's fault."

Ning Liang and Yu Shi were originally so angry that they didn't even have dinner, but they couldn't express their anger in the face of the Hu family's apologetic faces. They glanced at each other and had to politely give in, "Sit on the kang."

Village Chief Hu and Aunt Hu would not sit down, "We just heard the news and rushed over here." Then he pushed Mrs. Hu Qi, "It's all your fault, now you can make an apology to the second uncle and second aunt of the Ning family. "

Hu Qi also complained along with his parents: "It's because of you talking too much that this happened. Originally, the two families were talking quietly, how could you tell the Guo family!"

Hu Qisao blushed a long time ago, "Second Uncle, Second Aunt, Sister Wan'er, it's my sister-in-law who is sorry for you." But in her heart she felt that she had been wronged, and tears welled up in her eyes, "I didn't say anything at all. The two families got engaged, and only mentioned that the mother-in-law likes Wan'er very much and wants to be her daughter-in-law, who would have thought that Guo Xiaoyan could spread the word like that."

Although the root cause of this matter is Guo Xiaoyan, in fact Hu Qisao really shouldn't spread rumors. After all, she hasn't written a word yet, she just came quietly to sniff out the news, how can she spread the word.

So Hu Qi slapped him, "I shouldn't have said that!"

Seventh Sister-in-law's face immediately turned red, and a palm print was swollen high, she lowered her head and covered her face and began to cry softly.

There are also some men in Sanjia Village who beat their wives. Some beat their wives for wrongdoing, and some beat their wives regardless of whether they are right or wrong.But Ning Liang never hit Yu Shi, so Yu Shi couldn't see it the most, and his heart softened, and he quickly stepped forward to stop him, "Don't do anything, it will be fine if we talk about it."

Ning Wan looked coldly at Mrs. Hu, the village chief, and Hu Qi. Did they come to their house to play?Beat Mrs. Hu Qi at home, what can I do at home?There is no other way but to forgive, I can't just watch Hu Qi beat his wife to death.

Besides, what's the use of killing him?

Both Village Chief Hu and Aunt Hu are shrewd people, so they have always been good at calculating.However, Ning Wan thanked and admired Hu Dunru, and she still didn't want to turn against the Hu family just because of his face, so she didn't say anything, just smiled and said, "Let's forget about it."

The Hu family had already beaten their daughter-in-law, so Ning Liang felt embarrassed and said, "Go and tell the old man of the Guo family that Guo Xiaoyan is the one who lied."

"Ning Erlang, it's still your generosity." Village Chief Hu patted his father on the shoulder and said very movedly: "The children in the family are ignorant, and I can't help it!"

Aunt Hu pulled Yu Shi on the other side, "Her second aunt, I just know that your family is kind. This time the matter is over, and I will remember your love for the rest of my life."

Ning Wan laughed in her heart, Hu Dunru's temperament is really not like his parents.

Now that the two families had talked about it, they sat down and chatted for a few more words. Village Chief Hu and his wife said: "We should go back, and we will stop by Guo's house to clarify the matter. In the future, people from Sanjia Village will ask, Our family will never admit it again."

Ning Liang and Yu Shi got up and saw each other off, "I should have left you to sit for a while, but considering that your family has been busy all day, I am afraid that you are very tired, so it is not a waste of time."

While talking, everyone walked towards the door, but bumped into a person head-on, it turned out to be Hu Dunru!

On this festive day, Hu Dunru was still wearing the half-worn blue cloth robes and half-worn blue cloth square scarves he usually wears, but because he was in a hurry, his face was soaked in sweat, not as stable as he always was, and even After a little bit of embarrassment, he stopped his parents and asked, "So it's true?"

Village Chief Hu and his wife stopped him and said, "Let's talk about it when we go home."

But Hu Dunru was not willing to go, he stopped and asked: "Father, mother, you tell me, is it true?"

Village Chief Hu could only nod his head, "Yes, but we have already apologized to your Second Uncle Ning and Aunt Ning, and the Ning family will no longer be angry with your sister-in-law."

"Your sister-in-law also regrets that she shouldn't talk too much. Originally, your brother wanted to teach her a lesson, but your second aunt Ning kept stopping her." Aunt Hu said, holding her son's hand, "Say hello to uncle and aunt Ning. Just go."

As expected, Hu Dunru bowed to Ning Liang and Yu Shi, but shook his head, "It's not my sister-in-law who is wrong, but my father, mother and I, and we can't do something that is treacherous and just get away with it like this! "

Ning Wan admired secretly in her heart, after all, Hu Dunru is Hu Dunru!Even though it was his parents who were wrong, he still refused to be vague, but wanted to explain the matter clearly and then find a way to solve it.

After the battle between Hujia Village and Sanjia Village, Hu Dunru used such an attitude to slowly dissolve the tense atmosphere between the two villages. He was fair—no, even somewhat partial to Sanjia Village, because he had never Oneself, one's own family, one's own village are stricter.It was precisely because of this that Ning Wan managed to obtain medical expenses for her father, sold her land, and left Sanjia Village...

Judging from Hu Dunru's resolution of the enmity between the two villages, and his successful establishment of winter school in Mayi Town, he is not as smart as the shrewd village head Hu and the cunning Aunt Hu, and he is not good at pushing responsibility away. , but he used all his talents on the right path, so he can have later achievements.

Ning Liang and Mrs. Yu have always had a very good impression of Mr. Hu Xiao, so they completely eliminated the remaining unhappiness in their hearts, "Mr. .”

"No!" Hu Dunru was very resolute, and he bowed to Ning Liang and his wife again, "I still need to use the second uncle and second aunt's family to explain this matter to the invisible!"

Everyone had to go back to the Ning family's east house. Hu Dunru asked what happened. He didn't know anything about it. The family detective began to ask carefully.

In fact, Ning Wan is not very clear about some details. Mrs. Hu Qisao didn't tell her, and her mother also half-covered it, especially when Aunt Hu came to explain later, her mother simply hid it from her.So I listened with great interest, and suddenly felt someone pulling my sleeve, turned my head, and saw my mother turned her head and pouted to signal to me, it turned out that my mother felt that these things were not what I should listen to.

In fact, Ning Wan was not curious about this matter, but was very curious about how Hu Dunru would deal with it.So she went to the kitchen and came back again, refilled everyone's tea and stopped at a place far away from her mother, so that her mother would not be able to drag her, and she could not drive herself out in public.

At this time, Hu Dunru had already asked clearly, so he said to Mrs. Hu and Mrs. Hu: "Father, mother, Seventh Sister-in-law and Guo's family are telling the truth. Even if Guo Xiaoyan made a mistake, Seventh Sister-in-law should not be blamed."

Hu Qisao hurriedly said: "Little uncle, I really shouldn't talk nonsense. My mother-in-law also told me several times that the Guo family is not kind and told me to avoid contact with them, but I didn't take it to heart and went to visit the Guo family anyway. Mrs. Guo asked me a few words, and I talked too much." She choked up a bit, "It's just that I thought your business would be successful at that time, so I didn't expect Mr. Xu to say hello to you."

Hu Dunru nodded, but still stared at his parents, "Father, mother, since you have already discussed the marriage with the Ning family, you shouldn't break your promise and agree to the Gu family again!"

This is the crux of the matter!

Village Elder Hu blushed, "Old Mr. Xu personally proposed marriage for you. What can I do after hearing this? I can only nod my head!" Aunt Hu hurriedly added, "We were sincerely married to the Ning family before, but we didn't want to get married. I'm ashamed to say no to Mr. Xu."

It's true that I'm sorry to reject Mr. Xu, but compared to the Ning family, the Gu family is much better than the Ning family in terms of family background and wealth. Therefore, Village Chief Hu and his wife did not reject Mr. Xu because of this reason.But Ning Wan can fully understand that Mrs. Hu, the head of the village, has to choose a better and more cost-effective one even if she buys needles and thread for a penny. For the important matter of marriage, it is natural to state the conditions of both parties one by one. There is nothing wrong with the Hu family choosing a better one.

But Hu Dunru didn't think so, "Your gentleman promises, since our family has discussed the marriage with the Ning family, we should not agree to Mr. Now, I have become a person who does not keep my word, and the reputation of the Ning family sister has been damaged. damage."

Hu Qi saw that his parents were blushing and speechless, so he had to stand up for them and said: "Actually, my mother asked my daughter-in-law to come here just to spy on her. It is not considered an engagement, so it is not considered a breach of promise. As for the reputation of the Ning sister Damaged, that is the immoral thing the Guo family did!"

Hu Dunru said angrily: "Brother, if you are wrong, you are wrong. It is even more embarrassing to push the mistake to others, and people are not trustworthy, so I don't know what to do."

Hu Qi couldn't argue anymore, so he shrank his head back and said nothing.

Both Ning Liang and the Yu family are considerate of others, and compare their hearts with each other. If Hu Dunru is a child of his own family, it would be difficult for him to refuse the good thing that his husband offered to help him talk about marriage. Said: "The matter is already like this, even if we argue, it can't be changed, so there is no need to mention it again."

Hu Dunru didn't want to but said: "Since it was wrong, I have to correct it. I will explain it to my husband in the town tomorrow morning, and then go to the Gu family to withdraw the marriage. Our two families will get married according to the previous agreement!"

When Village Chief Hu and his wife heard this, they were anxious, "How can that be possible? We have already held an engagement banquet with the Gu family!"

"But that's wrong!"

"The engagement party is no joke!"

Hu Dunru firmly said: "Let's not keep our word, let alone condone it!"

Seeing the Hu family fighting at home, Ning Liang and Yu were very embarrassed, and their daughter was involved, so it was not good to persuade either side, and they couldn't avoid it. They lost their minds and stood with their hands tied. aside.

Ning Wan never thought that Hu Dunru would be able to face up to her parents, so she also stood aside and watched dumbfounded.She had known that Hu Dunru was upright by nature, and she didn't want him to treat his elders the same way, sticking to what he felt made sense.However, if this were not the case, how could the century-old struggle between the two villages be reconciled under his mediation?

My own family got into an argument at someone else's house, and Hu Qi, who had just retreated quietly, blushed at this moment, stepped forward and grabbed his younger brother and said, "Even if parents are wrong, they are still elders, and we must always be filial."

"Your words are even more wrong. 'Filial' should naturally be filial, and 'obedience' may not necessarily be obedient." Hu Dunru shook his head and said, "Mencius said, 'Ayi's song is obedient, and it is unrighteous to trap relatives. One is not filial." Even if it is Elders, wrong is wrong, right is right, you can’t obey them on the grounds of filial piety. "Exercise Mengwen" also said, "If relatives have made mistakes, they will make them worse." Those who want to remonstrate with their parents should change their mistakes.”

People in Sanjia Village like to talk about "filial piety". Some elders even know that they are wrong, but they still use these two words to suppress the younger generation.The third old man and the third old lady that Ning Wan hated the most before would often use "filial piety" to talk about it. Although she tried to push it back, she never really thought that the word "filial piety" could be said that way. Hu Dunru after all Reading is sensible, which makes her enlightened!
