Chapter 111
Lu Jiaoyue didn't understand what it meant at first, but she immediately came to her senses and shook her head again and again.

"It won't work. Don't tell Mrs. Cheng. It's time to make people laugh."

"What's the joke? Don't you want to give our daughter another brother?"

Naturally, but——

As soon as Lu Jiaoyue thought about why the couple asked their daughter to sleep with someone else at night, she felt a strong sense of shame.

"This matter can't be done, let's wait a little longer and grow up." She discussed.

"Then you are not allowed to refuse me again at night, she is such an older child, she knows nothing."

Lu Jiaoyue really didn't want to discuss this issue with the man, so she could only talk about him, "Let's go out quickly, it's not a problem to leave two people outside."

Zhou Jin didn't say anything on the surface, but in fact he had already made up his mind, so he carried his daughter far away at night and prevented her from sleeping between the two of them.

After the two went out, they found that only Gou Da was sitting there drinking tea in the main room, but Lu Jiaomei was nowhere to be found.

"People are gone?"

Gou Da answered irrelevantly: "Brother Jin, I'm [-]% sure that this woman came from that kind of place. Judging from her demeanor, eyes, and methods of dealing with men, ordinary women from good families don't know this way."

At this point, Lu Jiaoyue was no longer surprised when she heard this.

Zhou Jin nodded, not surprised.

Gou Da said again: "Do you want me to help you and my sister-in-law get this woman away?" Zhou Jin had already told Gou Da about Lu Jiaomei's ill intentions towards him before.

Zhou Jin raised his eyebrows: "Have you taken a fancy to her?"

The dog laughed wretchedly, "It's not that I have a crush on her, it's that she has a crush on me."

It's hard to imagine that such a smile would appear on such a gentle face, anyway, Lu Jiaoyue was dumbfounded by Gou Da's laughter.The dog glanced at the expression on her face, and immediately changed his face, pretending to be in the same hatred, "My sister-in-law is such a good person, and she gave birth to such a beautiful daughter for Brother Jin, I can't let that The woman gave you all away. Sister-in-law, don’t you think so?”

He first smiled flatteringly at Lu Jiaoyue, and then said to Zhou Jin: "Brother Jin, could it be that you have something in mind for her?" He looked very disapproving.

Lu Jiaoyue was amused by him.

Zhou Jin scolded with a smile: "Fuck you, don't make fun of me, you can get that kind of woman if you want, as long as you don't cause any trouble."

"How is this possible? With her little skill, that's what I can do." He stood up, "I'm leaving first, but I'll be back. Frequent visits, sister-in-law, don't dislike me."

"Of course not." Lu Jiaoyue said.

Gou Da nodded to the two of them, then walked away.

Afterwards, Lu Jiaoyue asked Zhou Jin: "Isn't it a bit bad for us to do this?"

"One is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer, but no one forces her. Do you want her to put all her energy on your man every day?"

Lu Jiaoyue hastily shook her head.A dead fellow is not as good as a poor fellow, so let's still die as a fellow.

"Gou Da knows the seriousness, he won't mess around, even if he messes up, it's because the woman is out of the right mind."

Lu Jiaoyue nodded.

After that, Gou Da came to the door frequently.

Coincidentally, every time the dog comes, Lu Jiaomei will take the initiative to come to the door.

Zhou Jin and his wife are naturally not unreasonable, and they repeatedly create opportunities for the two to get along alone.After several times like this, Gou Da stopped coming, and neither did Lu Jiaomei. Zhou Jin told Lu Jiaoyue that the two had hooked up, and Lu Jiaoyue couldn't react other than being speechless.

It's the New Year's Eve again, and the village is bustling again just like in the past.

Everyone is beaming and making various preparations for the new year.

Mei Zhuangyi was sympathetic to his niece and niece. The couple separated when they were just married, and now they have another child, so they took over the outside affairs as soon as they were married.With the help of Hu San and others, it was not too important for Zhou Jin not to show up, so Zhou Jin stayed at home with his wife and raised the baby, and was busy with the New Year's affairs at home along the way.

The days are tedious and peaceful, and this kind of peaceful life is something that Zhou Jin never dared to imagine before.He obviously has ideals and ambitions, but looking at his wife and daughter, he feels that it is not bad to just guard them for the rest of his life.

After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the year is over, and the village is quiet again. If it is still cold today, it will not be lively until the spring thaws outside.

Diandian has been three months now, and she looks the same as when she was full moon. Now Diandian eats fat for nothing, her arms and legs are like lotus root joints, she knows how to laugh at people, and also learns to cry.

The first time I saw my daughter shed tears, Zhou Jin and his wife were taken aback. You must know that crying before Diandian was always howling.

Lu Jiaoyue hurriedly found Mei Shi over, Mei Shi smiled and said: "Little Wazi is like this, adults know how to shed tears even when they cry, do you think Xiaowa doesn't understand?"

The couple were immediately embarrassed.

Diandian was about to shed tears, and seemed to be a little more coquettish. The child had a big temper, and he didn't know who he was following. Jufan was a little unhappy, so he howled and cried.The crying sound was loud and loud, and a pair of big eyes that followed Lu Jiaoyue were full of tears, making people want to give her their hearts when they looked at her.

No, Mei said that the little milk baby turned over, sat, and crawled seven times, and asked Lu Jiaoyue to warm up the room if she had nothing to do, took off the little padded jacket, and put on thinner clothes for the baby, so that her Learn to turn over.In the past few days, I have figured out the trick a little bit. First, I raised my two little chubby legs, raised them high, and twisted my small body to the side. Finally, I turned sideways, but I couldn’t turn it over again. When I fell back, I burst into tears.

The father felt distressed, and hurried to help her, but was stopped by the mother, "Mother said, let her do it by herself, she can't stand up and let the adults help her?"

Xiao DianDian seemed to hear her mother talking, she looked over with her big watery eyes, looked at her mother for a while, then went to see her father, but father didn't come either, she sniffed her little nose twice, and stopped crying, Keep fighting on your own.

Looking at his daughter's little expression, Zhou Jin was almost not overjoyed, and said to Lu Jiaoyue: "This little brat actually has good eyesight." He seemed to be cursing with a smile on his lips, but in reality, he was quite complacent.

Lu Jiaoyue gave him an angry look with a smile, and said, "Do you think she always only knows how to eat and sleep?"

At this moment, Mrs. Mei came over.

She had a strange expression on her face, and she sat down and said, "I heard from your third aunt that Meizi has found someone. It is said that the person appeared when you two got married. It seems to be a friend of Jinzi. I don't know who it is. Who, do you know about this?"

Lu Jiaoyue and Zhou Jin looked at each other, she was not good at lying and deceiving people, especially her own mother, so Zhou Jin came forward to answer.

Zhou Jin pretended to be confused, and said bravely, "What else is there? How did Third Aunt know?"

Mrs. Mei took a sip, "It's not that Meizi's style is too eye-catching. You said that the widow is looking for a house, and no one will say anything. But she is fine, and the man goes to the house every three days before she is married. People in the village have been talking about it for a long time, and your third aunt also heard about it, so she paid close attention to it."

This so-called quiet attention is naturally climbing the courtyard wall to watch the excitement, and everyone in the second room knows about it.It stands to reason that this should not be the case, but now Qiao's only has such fun, so no one will stop her.

"That man is said to be very rich, he walks and drives a carriage, and looks very decent. You really don't know who it is?"

Lu Jiaoyue's heart skipped a beat, and she wanted to tell the truth, but she saw Zhou Jin pretending to be contemplative, and said: "Could it be the dog, he came to the house twice a while ago, mother, you know Some time ago, Lu Jiaomei always came to the house, and the two met twice."

Men have already said that, and a daughter-in-law can only cover up, Lu Jiaoyue nodded repeatedly, "Don't say it, it really happened!"

Mrs. Mei glanced at the two of them, didn't say anything else, but turned around to tease her little granddaughter.

Mei's reaction was abnormal, and the young couple couldn't help feeling guilty.Lu Jiaoyue secretly gave Zhou Jin a look, Zhou Jin found an excuse to go out, and she sat next to Mei Shi, watching her play a little bit.

"Now that I've grown up, I know how to coax your mother." Mrs. Mei glanced at her daughter and said.

Lu Jiaoyue smiled dryly, and said softly, "Mother—"

Mrs. Mei interrupted: "Okay, I know Jinzi is a prudent person, just don't make trouble."

Seeing that Mrs. Mei took the initiative to expose, Lu Jiaoyue didn't dare to hide any more, and told the ins and outs of the matter honestly and frankly.

"You said Jinzi and they said that Meizi stayed in Hualou?" Mei frowned.

Lu Jiaoyue nodded, "But I can't be sure, but she turned around and caught up with Gou Da. I'm willing to believe this kind of statement."

Mei sighed again and again: "Why did this happen? What happened to this child outside, didn't he run away with that peddler?"

"Who knows, she hurt herself, who can she blame?" Lu Jiaoyue's tone was a little complaining, obviously remembering what Lu Jiaomei wanted to do to Zhou Jin before, "She herself is not stable. , The ghost has so many thoughts, we didn't force her, it was she who hooked up with Gouda herself. Mother, don't forget that she had impure thoughts about your son-in-law before, so don't sympathize with her. "

Mrs. Mei poked her on the forehead and scolded with a smile: "You don't need to say, do you like to bend your elbows when you are your mother? I'm not talking about you, your reaction is too slow, it's Jinzi who cares about you, and took the initiative to do it. I solved it for you. If it were another person, if something really happened, you would be the one to cry."

"If it's really that kind of person, I won't marry either." Lu Jiaoyue was a little brash.

Mei groaned, but there was a smile on her face.

The mother and daughter chatted a few more gossips, and then Mei said again: "You follow up with my son, let him talk to that dog, it's almost fine. After all, her surname is Lu, don't make trouble when it doesn't look good, and it hurts your face." There's no light either."

"Mother, don't worry, brother Jin knows it well, and Gou Da is not the kind of person who doesn't know the importance."

Gou Dari went in and out of Daxi Village, and was often seen by the villagers.

Gradually, the rumor that Lu Jiaomei became a rich man spread more and more widely in the village.

Many people are jealous, but at the same time, because this kind of behavior is against the world, many people say bad things in private.It is said that the Lu family's big family is only looking at money now, and they are shameless. This widow who lives in her natal family can actually seduce people to come to her door.

Although Gou Da has never done anything excessive to Lu Jiaomei, nor has he stayed in Lu's house for a long time, at most he just talked to Lu Jiaomei, or stayed at Lu's house for a meal, but outsiders don't know Ah, everyone said that the big family of the Lu family was shameless and let their daughter hang out with others at home.

Anyway, there are a lot of bad words, but now everyone knows that the second bedroom, the third bedroom and the first bedroom have collapsed, and no one is talking about the other two bedrooms.

Dafang's family didn't listen to all kinds of gossip and rumors outside, they just thought it was the envy of the villagers.If no one is jealous, it is a mediocrity. The family has been silent in the village for too long, and now someone is jealous, which means that their life is good.

Just at this moment when the wind and the waves were on the cusp, Old Man Lu was thinking about buying land again.

I asked many people in the village if anyone wanted to sell their land.It is not uncommon for people to scold them from their homes and ask others if they want to sell their land. Didn't they mean to scold them for breaking their homes?Country people, if you don't want to break your home, who will sell the land you live on? !
In fact, old man Lu really didn't have any malicious intentions, but because he sold the land back then, he was often laughed at by the villagers.Now that the family situation is better, I naturally want to tell everyone that the Lu family has not lost yet, but unfortunately the mood is too urgent, and the way I choose is also somewhat wrong.

Old man Lu went back with his head drooping, and naturally he was complained by his family.

Lu Jiaomei was also so angry that her lips were trembling, she said that her spine had been smashed by the villagers now, and the grandfather added to the chaos.Old man Lu was furious at being scolded, but he didn't want to offend his rich granddaughter, so he could only rush back into the house, and sat on the kang again to smoke.

Hu forced her daughter back into the house.

"He's your grandfather after all. If you say that about him as a junior, where do you put your father's face?"

Lu Jiaomei shook off Hu's hand, went to sit on the kang, "What? Eat my food and drink my food every day, I can't lose my temper anymore?! When he was fussing about buying land, why didn't he?" Think I'm his granddaughter? There is this kind of grandfather and father who doesn't even say hello, but is about to buy land, and the family has money to buy land?"

At the end, Lu Jiaomei sneered again and again.

Mrs. Hu was silent for a moment, and then said softly: "Don't blame your grandfather and your father, you think that if you marry into the Gou family, our family is too weak, and it will always be a bit shameful. Your father and your brother are capable , you have a bright face in front of Young Master Gou, it's better than your natal family who come to the door every day to beat the autumn wind, and it will save you from being angry in the future."

Lu Jiaomei snorted, "After all, I still want to force me to buy land for my family."

Hu sighed, "Mother is doing it for your own good, so think about it."

After speaking, Mrs. Hu left.

After Mrs. Hu left, Lu Jiaomei sat alone on the kang, her face turned sunny and cloudy.

Back then, she was blind and ran away with such a greasy-faced and hopeless person.It wasn't until she and the man had sex and married without a matchmaker that she realized that the man was not as good as he said.There are houses in the city, two broken tile houses, not as good as my own.He is also from the city, but it is a pity that he is single, has no parents, and no one in the neighborhood is willing to deal with him.

At first, the man lied to her that his parents died young, and these people wanted to sell and buy by force when they saw that their house was valuable.He didn't want to, so he offended several neighbors nearby.After two months, Lu Jiaomei found out that, as he said, it was obvious that he was sneaking around and not doing business. Rabbits don't eat the grass by the side of the nest, but he just picks up the grass by the side of the nest and gnaws on it. People don't hate him to death. .

If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't survive in the city, that person wouldn't carry the goods to the countryside to earn some ration money.Even so, that guy still owed others on credit, he ate and drank to be generous in front of himself, and soon spent all the money he earned, including the principal and interest, and people came to ask for the debt, so naturally they made trouble at home again one game.

It was also at that time that Lu Jiaomei knew the real details of that person.

But it's too late to say anything now, the matter has come to this point, she has no way of turning back, so she can only go on bravely.

Lu Jiaomei also had a hot temper, she insisted on forcing that person to go out to work to earn money to support her family.That person went there for a few days, but he couldn't hold on after a few days, but Lu Jiaomei was at home every day, so naturally he didn't know what this person was doing outside.

By the time she knew it was too late, this man sold her into the Goulan Courtyard.

Lu Jiaomei thought about dying several times, but she realized that death was not as simple as she imagined.The old bustard had many methods to deal with her, and she went back and forth several times, but she didn't bother anymore, so she just stayed in the Goulan courtyard and started a skin and meat business.

Since then, Lu Jiaomei has recognized the man's true colors.

Who is sincere to whom?It's just that you miss my body, and I miss your money!
She used to be a skilled person, she coaxed the madam very well, and many benefactors would come to her regularly.After working for several years, I have saved a lot of money in my hands.

No one wants to stay in a place like Goulanyuan for the rest of their lives, so Lu Jiaomei naturally thought about redeeming herself.When she finally saved enough money, she redeemed herself.

The sky and the earth are big, and after Lu Jiaomei came out, she realized that there was no place for her, she was alone, and this world was too difficult for a woman.

Naturally, she thought of Daxi Village, the place where she grew up.

I have also experienced too much, and I want to return to that peaceful day.In fact, it's good to think about it. Go back to my hometown and find an honest and reliable man to marry, and I can live my life in the future.

However, Lu Jiaomei is also aware of her shortcomings. Any woman who has stayed in the Goulan courtyard will be given a bowl of sterilization drugs.She can't give birth, so the marriage has to be carefully planned. With her appearance, it's not impossible to marry someone who has never been married, but after getting married, she has been unable to give birth, and I'm afraid she will have to toss in the future.

That's why Lu Jiaomei stared at Zhou Jin.

In fact, Lu Jiaomei didn't intend to find someone like Zhou Jin at first, but the life in the countryside was really too hard, although she used to be in a lowly profession, she still lived in luxury.After returning home, Lu Jiaomei took a long time to get used to life in the countryside.

It's chilling to think about living a lifetime of rough tea and light food.

And what Lu Jiaomei didn't expect was that the family's life is so bad now, the land is gone, and there is only a house left.The whole family can only eat with their mouths open, but few can make money, and her return just solved the family's problems.

It was also because Lu Jiaomei paid too much attention to her own face. In order to avoid people making jokes, she deliberately pulled out the pretense of being a rich widow.Everyone in the family knew that she had money in her hands, so naturally they did not miss her, and they forgot their real situation.

In fact, Lu Jiaomei didn't have much money, although the old bustard in Goulanyuan had a good relationship with her, but when it came to money, even her parents didn't recognize her, let alone her a flower girl.The price for redemption was very high, and when she redeemed herself, there was only more than 200 taels of silver left in her hand.

If it weren't for this, Lu Jiaomei would not have thought of going home, this money seems to be a lot, but it can't even make a fortune in the city.She is alone and has no income. Could it be that she still hopes to sell meat when she gets older, or she might as well go back early and find someone to marry.

Just like this, at one o'clock today and one o'clock tomorrow, the money in Lu Jiaomei's hands is getting less and less. By the time she realizes that her family is a bottomless pit, she has no way of turning back. Since she has already returned, she can only continue to stay. .

So the Zhou family, the richest in the village, came into her eyes.

Now she doesn't want to think about anything in the future, she just wants to find someone to marry quickly, and get rid of this group of people in the family as soon as possible. Of course, it is best to have money.

As for Young Master Gou, it was a complete accident, Lu Jiaomei never thought that she would be so lucky to meet such a match for her eyes.Compared to Zhou Jin, who was the fifth and third grader with a rough and fierce face, naturally the little fair-faced Young Master Gou was more attractive to women.

It was also because Lu Jiaomei hadn't been fooled enough, last time she fell into the hands of that donkey-shit boy with a bare face, and now she ran into another one.

But Lu Jiaomei obviously didn't realize this at this time, she was thinking about what her mother said before.

Lu Jiaomei doesn't know much about Gou Da, she only knows that he is from the county, his family has a little money, and now he is in business partnership with Zhou Jin.

Such a person whose family background and looks are not too bad, how could the family agree to marry her as a widow to enter the house, so Lu Jiaomei had to paint the widow's body with gold paint.In other words, her family's situation must not be too bad. Even if she is a countryman, she must have some family background, and her family background must be clean.In addition, she herself must have a certain amount of capital to impress the other party's family.

A widow with extraordinary looks and a lot of money must not be a problem.

Lu Jiaomei turned around and took out a small box from the kang cabinet, which contained all her wealth.

She opened it and looked. There were some gold jewelry and more than 100 taels of silver inside.

She touched the few pieces of jewelry, and fortunately, there were these, so that she would not be blown out of her skin.And Young Master Gou never doubted what she said.

She touched the silver ticket and several silver ingots again, and sat for a while before she put the silver ticket into her bosom, opened the door and went out.

It is imperative to buy land for the family, in fact, Lu Jiaomei also knows it, and the rest of the Lu family also knows it, so they are so unscrupulous.It is because of knowing that Lu Jiaomei hates, wait, when she marries into Gou's family, she will definitely not enter her mother's family again.Even if she enters her natal family again, don't expect her natal family to squeeze out half of the money from her.

Thinking of this, Lu Jiaomei opened the curtain of the main room, smiled at Lu Qian who was sitting inside: "Grandpa, don't blame me, I just got angry just now. Didn't you say you want to buy land? Have a look?" Is it in the middle?"

The dry tobacco pipe in Old Man Lu's hand immediately dropped in surprise.

Not to mention, although there are many people in the village who scold the old man Lu, it really made him find a land seller.

He is a wealthy household in the village, surnamed Ma.The son of the Ma family was promising. He bought a house in Taoyuan Town, married a wife, and opened a grocery store.He is the only son in the Ma family. Now that the son is promising and the daughter-in-law has a grandson, the old couple wants to sell their land and move to Taoyuan Town.

The Ma family's land is not the best high-quality farmland, but it is not bad. There are ten acres of top-grade fields and fifteen acres of sandy land.The purchase of these 25 mu of land cost almost 170 taels of silver.

Lu Jiaomei didn't want to buy so much land for her family. If she wanted to buy ten acres, it would be fine. She had to save some money.Unexpectedly, she wanted to buy so much at once, and almost wiped out all the money in her hand at once.

But now it's hard to get off the tiger, she said the words, and it's good that people in this village have land in this village, and Ma's family doesn't share the land for sale.In desperation, she had no choice but to bite the bullet and buy them all.

When he took the title deed in his hand, Old Man Lu was so happy that he almost didn't jump up.

In his whole life, he has never owned so much land. In the early years, his family worked so hard to save 25 mu of land. After he wanted to separate the family, almost all of them were defeated.Now holding the title deed of [-] mu of land in his hand, the old man Lu burst into tears. He is worthy of the ancestors of the Lu family.

The news spread throughout Daxi Village.

When there was no Zhou family before, the Ma family could be counted as one of the richest households in the village, all because the Ma family had the most land in the village.Now that the land of the Ma family was sold to the big family of the Lu family, the big family of the Lu family suddenly became one of the richest households in the village.

Everyone said that Lu Mingchuan would give birth to a child, and he gave birth to a girl, who unexpectedly brought such a large amount of wealth to the family.But this is not something to be envious of. No matter how people marry their daughters, the daughters will marry well. If a rich man dies after marrying, the family property will belong to the daughter.Now that the daughter has bought land for the family, she is about to marry a rich man again.

All of a sudden, many patriarchal families in the village became kind to their daughters. No one dared to say that there would not be a "Lu Jiaomei" in the family in the future. This was something that many people did not expect.
