After being dressed as a scumbag, I was dismissed?!

Chapter 89

On the 30th night, the Gu family became the most lively family in the village, with children flocking in an endless stream. Some people ran more than once, until Chongming and Tian Ge'er sent out all the things they had prepared.

Many people heard the children say that the Gu family gave meat buns, and they said everything, but they were all overjoyed.

Some parents snatched their own children's candy Gada, leaving only one piece for their children, and the rest of the first and second days of the new year soaked in sugar water to entertain guests, which saved face.

Because of this, many people go to Gu's house to pay New Year's greetings on the first day of the new year, but it's a pity that Gu Beizhi took Guan Zhou and the two children to Guan Er's uncle's house early in the morning, saying a lot of auspicious words and rejecting Guan Er Uncle's invitation to stay for dinner.

After coming out of Uncle Guan's house, the family of four went to the old village chief's house. The old village chief's house was even more lively. The New Year's greetings were full of people, young and old, and people kept coming. Seeing this, Gu Beizhi and Guan Zhou just gave gifts. , said a few auspicious words and left.

The first day of the new year has passed in the New Year's greetings everywhere. On the second day of the new year, it is reasonable to say that it is the day of returning home. It doesn't matter whether you are married to another village or your own village, they all return to their parents' homes, and many widows and widows who come to the end of the village are also there. They all went back to their mother's house.

Only a very few people, like Guan Zhou, who had turned against their family, or like Shi Ge'er, whose parents' family had long since passed away, would stay in their own house and not move around.

It's just that Guan Zhou wants to stay in his own house, but Guan Nanhu's family doesn't think so. After the new year, Guanqiao will be eighteen. If he doesn't get married soon, he will not be able to marry a female wife. Since Guan Zhou's family is rich, Of course, the younger brother should be given money to marry a daughter-in-law. They thought it was beautiful.

After waiting at home all morning, Guan Zhou didn't come, recalling that Guan Zhou never came back in the past few years, Guan Nanhu's mother-in-law patted her thigh, "Dad Qiao, Guan Zhou's cub will definitely not come today, you Think about it, did you not come a few years ago?"

Guan Nanhu thought about it and said, "Mother Qiao, what do you say?"

"We have to go to him. We are all from the same village. If he doesn't go back to his parents' house, his parents took the initiative to visit him. Can he still drive us away?"

Guan Qiao immediately agreed when he heard that he was going to Guan Zhou's house, "Dad. Let's go, let the steward serve us!"

Speaking of the stew, the three members of Guan Nanhu's family began to swallow. After Guan Zhou got married, the life of the Guan family became more and more difficult. The days of eating meat are completely gone. In recent months, I only ate meat once yesterday, but I am not all greedy.

In the past, Guan Nanhu's father left behind the support, and Guan Zhou worked day and night. Although they were lazy, apart from eating some meat and wearing unpatched clothes, it didn't cost much. Even better.

But after Guan Zhou got married, they had to do all the work in the fields themselves. In the first year, there was almost no harvest, so they could only use money to pay taxes and buy food to eat. Later, Guan Nanhu and his wife knew that they had to press They started to work in the fields. The more work they did, the faster the cost of clothes, food, and meat. They didn't lose themselves, and they spent more money.

This year, there is no copper in the family at all. Originally, the villagers thought Guan Qiao was lazy, a young boy of 16 or 17, lying at home every day and not doing anything. If his daughter married him, Guan Nanhu wouldn't have to make trouble with his younger brother and wouldn't let Guan Yang get married.

The main reason is that the gap between the two cousins ​​is too big, and Guan Nanhu can't stand it in his heart. Guan Qiao said that it would be impossible for a family to be difficult, not to mention that there is no girl willing to marry, and the younger brother doesn't look down on Guan Qiao.

Guan Yang is different. He was diligent and did not speak when he was a child, but also read and read. Unlike Guan Qiao, who read nothing after two years, he was a lazy and lazy person. In addition, Guan Yang also plans to take the exam as a scholar, and he is not like other people's schoolboys who don't work. There are a lot of people who want to marry him.

If Guan Nanhu hadn't messed around, Guan Yang might have children now.

But there was a turning point this year. There was a village in a ravine. There was an old man surnamed Zhang in this village. His girl was getting married and the village was poor. I just wanted to find someone outside the mountain to marry.

The matchmaker told Guan Qiao about this girl. She told Guan Nanhu that she was from a mountain valley and did not know the situation in their village. When she heard that Guan Qiao was literate and that she would be tested for talents in the future, she was a little moved. But because the old man was afraid that the girl would be poor, if he wanted to order more gifts, he needed at least three taels of silver and a silver bracelet.

At the beginning, the matchmaker thought it was too expensive, so the matchmaker whispered to her, "The old man said that the dowry will be a lot of money for the girl, and he will add some more. Marry your daughter-in-law without spending any money?"

Guan's mother was moved, but even so, her family couldn't come up with a dowry now, and her face was as clean as her face, so she pretended to hesitate and wanted to wait.

The matchmaker added, "I just see that your family Guan Zhou is married well, Gu Xiucai earns a lot of money, and a little bit of filial piety to you is enough for the bride price, and Guan Yang, maybe Qiuhou will be a scholar. , how good the conditions are, your Guanqiao has been stained by his brother-in-law and cousin, otherwise I would not be too lazy to tell you."

"I can tell you, Miss Zhang is very smart, her butt is big and round. , it must be easy to give birth!"

"Shuiling is not enough. If you don't know how to do housework, why don't you look at it? My son is the eldest grandson of the old Guan family." The matchmaker belittles her son, and Guan's mother is not in her heart He was very happy, and there was a look of anger on his face.

"Hey, look at what you said, this family is not rich and noble, can they still raise a young lady? The housework is neat, and they can cook good dishes. If it wasn't for the old man who insisted on marrying the girl If you came out of the mountains, you were already married away!"

The matchmaker could also see that Guan's mother was unhappy, but she didn't follow it. Who doesn't know what Guan Qiao is like in Wangjia Village? That's why Guan Nanhu and his wife are used to it. They treat lazy people as precious eggs, and they are also the eldest grandson. Who doesn't know that this family named Guan in Wangjia Village is also a sideline?

Don't care how Guan's mother thinks her son is good, she actually knows that the villagers' evaluation of their family depends on the appearance of the matchmaker. Beizhi and Guan Yanghao, a group of snobbish people, can't tell that her son is a first-class jade!

The matchmaker was a good matchmaker, and she could see that she believed a little in her heart, so she quickly stated her purpose, "I won't hide it from you, your son's marriage is hard to say, but I have a bad thing, go to another village. Sister Nao Niijing is rarely mixed up, no, I finally got this opportunity, and another one, if your Guan Qiao and Miss Zhang become a matchmaker, you have to give me five hundred money for

the matchmaking money." The main thing to compare with each other is what kind of marriages have been made. Guan Qiaoniang asked a matchmaker to find them two years ago, but none of them were successful. It really made the matchmaker lose face.

"What?! Five hundred money?! Why don't you go grab it?! No!" Guan's mother became anxious, knowing that the village was a matchmaker, if it wasn't for mutual introduction between relatives and friends, or if it wasn't for a matchmaker, the former People who are close usually don't need to give anything, the latter only receives a hundred wen each time, so they have to say it.

It costs 500 yuan per mouth, which is indeed too expensive, but the matchmaker still feels that it is less, "This is what you said, since there is no matchmaking money, I will tell this girl to the eldest grandson of Shucheng's family. , the uncle is rich, he can afford to pay, he can marry any kind of girl, your family...will be a bachelor in the future, huh!" The matchmaker shook her veil, regardless of her flushed face, twisted. Walk away with a waist. After she left, Guan's mother regretted it again. Her son will soon be eighteen, let alone marry a daughter-in-law. He can't even decide on a marriage. The village and the nearby villages have all looked for them, but they are too close. Once I asked, I didn't talk to them again.

This home is far away, so I can't find out. I just rely on the matchmaker to tell me. If I miss it, I don't know how long it will take to marry my daughter-in-law. I also think that if I can marry my daughter-in-law earlier and let my daughter-in-law work in the field, She and her man don't have to suffer, just like when Guan Zhou was at home before, they were eagerly a lot.

But there is no money at home, what should I do?

Guan's mother told Guan Nanhu about it. After Guan Nanhu thought about it, he had to go to his son-in-law to ask for money just like the matchmaker said. Usually, if he doesn't give a penny, this brother-in-law wants to get married. Why should you give me some?

So the two of them thought about asking for money when they were waiting for the New Year's greetings, but Gu Beizhi put down his things and left without saying a word. Their plan to ask for money fell through. As a result, Guan Zhou never went home.

Guan Nanhu took his daughter-in-law and son to Gu's house. It was not yet noon, and some people went back to their parents' house one after another. When they met their family of three, they still wondered, why are they not staying at home? He glanced at him and looked like he was going to Gu's house.

As soon as we got home, everyone knew that Guan Nanhu's family took the initiative to go to their son-in-law's house on the second day of the new year. Many people shook their heads. Isn't this upside down?

"Who is it?" Hearing the knock on the door, Chongming was a little puzzled. Today, he was going back to his parents' house, so why would anyone come to take care of him.

"Open the door!" Guan Nanhu's voice was loud.

"Who are you? What are you doing here?" Chong Ming didn't dare to open the door directly, Gu Beizhi accompanied Guan Zhou to Guan's second uncle's house, and he and his brother were at home now.

"I'm Guan Zhou's father, open the door!" Guan Nanhu replied fiercely.

"Master is not at home, Master Guan will come back in the afternoon." Chongming returned, his master and his father and mother had a bad relationship, he knew it, and now there is no master at home, of course they can't be let in.

"You let us go in and wait." Guan Nanhu felt unhappy when he heard that his son and son-in-law were not at home, but he didn't want to go in vain, so he wanted to go in and wait for the two to come back.

But Chongming just didn't open the door. Guan Nanhu and him talked back and forth for a long time, but they didn't see the door open. How dare you stop your son ?!"

"Big brother!" Uncle Guan rushed up and grabbed Guan Nanhu's hand, "What are you doing here?"
