Chapter 264: predictable
Chapter 264
The complexion of Wu Laosan's family also became very ugly. When Wu Laosan woke up this morning, Wang told him about his plans. Since Wen Yuanliang has already engaged, it is still a big family in the city, so they can't do anything about it. , I had to take the next step and tell Wu Qiaoqiao to the second child of the Wen family. Anyway, Wu Qiaoqiao is about the same age as the second child of the Wen family, which is just right.
Wu Laosan did not agree at first, but Wang specially invited his father-in-law to come over. The two of them knew about him and moved them with affection, and finally persuaded Wu Laosan, so they went to the door together to have a look. It's really promising to bring up the marriage, who knows that I haven't said anything yet? People are also engaged. Isn't this a joke?
The housekeeper was not aware of it, and explained while struggling: "Our second young master is going to marry a young lady from the Huju family in the county town. Hu Juren is our young master's enlightenment mentor. What's strange about getting married earlier?"
As soon as he heard that the other party was a girl from a family, the village chief's hand instantly loosened, he let it down weakly, he laughed dryly, and walked out tremblingly, saying, "Since your master is not here, we will leave first, another day. Find him again."
The housekeeper was confused, and after politely sending the village chief's family away, he hurried to report to Chen Ningya, "Madam, according to your instructions, the village chief's family has left."
"Well." Chen Ningya didn't move, not even her expression changed, as if everything was under her control.
Wen Yuanzhen gave a thumbs up admiringly and patted Chen Ningya's ass, "Mother, you are really amazing, how do you know what the village chief grandpa's purpose is?"
In her opinion, her mother is simply predictable, and she can't be more powerful.
Chen Ningya put down the account book in a funny way, turned her shoulders lazily, and a strand of blue silk fell to her chest, making her look more sloppy, and her voice was lazy like a cat, "What's so hard to guess? It was so late last night. After the village chief came to the door, your father said that the village chief’s youngest son wanted to marry our family, but he was blocked by your father last night. Now he came to the door again and brought Wu Laosan’s family over, obviously he did not intend to give up.
If they had self-knowledge, they would have known that they couldn't continue to beat your elder brother's idea. Although your engagement has not been made clear, the people in the village are tacitly aware of it. Apart from your elder brother and you, who else in our family will be cared about? What's more, what Wu Laosan brought was his daughter, and everyone knew Sima Zhao's heart.
This time, I learned from your father that he was old at the beginning of the other party, and I didn't go out to meet people, so as not to meet the embarrassment of the next two families. "
Wen Yuanzhen nodded vigorously, admiring Chen Ningya tightly.
When Wu Laosan and his family returned home, they couldn't help but slap Wang Shi and complained, "It's all your bad idea, and I almost lost my face!"
Wang Shi covered his face, but was not convinced. Relying on the fact that his father-in-law and mother-in-law were at home, he choked with Wu Lao San, "I'm not here for this family! The eldest and the second have to study, and your shop will also make money. For a few dollars, it’s not as good as the eldest brother and the second brother who grow mulberries and raise silkworms. If Qiao Qiao can marry into the Wen family, let alone the betrothal gifts, we will be able to live comfortably for several years. The beam repair has also been settled, don't you still want to be a talented father? If you don't have money, it's all bullshit!"
"You still said that?" Wu Laosan raised his slap fiercely and threatened Wang, for fear that Wang would let his parents know about it and make him lose face in front of his parents and brothers.
It’s not that he never thought about coming back to grow mulberries and raise silkworms over the years, but he couldn’t do physical work, and secondly, he couldn’t save himself. At that time, when he went out of the village, he spoke harshly, and he would never scrape food in the soil in his life.
Mr. Wang shrank his neck and didn't really mention it, and muttered weakly, "What should I do now? It's unrealistic to marry the Wen family. Do you have any other ideas?"
Mr. Wu pushes away the Wang family irritably, carefully pondering the affairs at home, and after thinking about it, he is depressed to find that he is really very short of money. Isn't there a better choice for the Wen family? He can't believe it!
Thinking like this, Wu Laosan decisively put on his shoes and went to the ground, asked Wang to pack his luggage, and hurried back to Yuchang Town with his wife and daughter.
The village chief did not stop when he received the news. He watched his younger son leave the village, and then went back to Mrs. Wu’s house and talked with him for a long time. The next day, the father and son also went to Yuchang Town. Hand it over to Boss Wu.
The Wen Youshan father and son, who were galloping in the Zhangjiagou mountains, didn’t know these things at all. They walked around in the mountains and searched everywhere, but only encountered a few ordinary wild ducks, and there were no so-called geese at all.
Zhang Yun was afraid of delaying Wen Yuanhong's major event, so he called for help from the powerful hunters around him.
The group jumped up and down in the mountains, and the noise was so loud that the deer and the deer fought several times, but they didn't even see a single feather of the geese. Wen Yuanhong was extremely disappointed, and lowered his head and bowed his head in despair.
Wen Youshan asked him, "I can't find it if I can't find it, why don't my father go to Hu's house and discuss with Mr. Hu to see how to solve it?"
Wen Yuanhong refused without thinking, "Women get married once in a lifetime, I don't want Miss Hu to feel sorry, since she wants to get married, she can't talk to others. If you have something to do, you can go out first, anyway, there are still several guards in our family. My safety is absolutely fine."
Wen Youshan shook his head, "Then let's look for it together. Go in the direction of the river and look for it."
Now I can only try my luck, and there is no other way.
The group continued to walk without saying a word. Many hunters in the mountains built small wooden huts, so there is no need to be afraid that there is nowhere to go when it gets dark, and they are fully prepared this time, let alone worry. .
It's a pity that they overestimated the nearby hunters this time, and they were unfamiliar with the mountains in Zhangjiagou. They even lost their way while walking. The surrounding trees are obviously much denser and intertwined. The roots hang from the trees and follow the beads. Like a curtain, it was all over the place, so that they couldn't see the way ahead.
Wen Youshan frowned when he saw the environment, and told Wen Yuanhong, "Follow Dad, let's walk along the river, and don't enter the woods on both sides."
From here, the woods are pitch-dark, and they don't know what dangers are in it. To be honest, this place is really not a place to stay for a long time, and he always has a bad premonition.
This hunch soon came true. I saw that the river that was crystal clear just now gradually turned red. It was very light at first. Wen Youshan thought it was an illusion, but the further he went, the deeper the color of the river, even Xiaobai Wen Yuanhong realized that something was wrong.
"Father, look at that river, why is it red? Is there red ore on it?" Wen Yuanhong looked confused.
Wen Youshan had a sullen face, raised his ears vigilantly to listen to the surrounding movement, and said, "Be careful, those are blood, not ore."
