Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

slap, slap...

The coachman of Wu's family flicked his whip, and the mule-drawn cart tied the donkey and drove slowly towards the exit of the village.

Before reaching the entrance of the village, Guo Ye, who was full of worries, seemed to hear someone chasing and shouting outside the car, which seemed to be the voice of a little girl.

Without delay, he immediately lifted the curtain and ordered the groom to stop.

Sure enough, the younger sister Guo Xiaoman followed closely, clutching a small fist-sized cloth bag with flushed cheeks, panting to Guo Ye, "Brother, this is what Dad asked me to give you."

After speaking, he stuffed it into Guo Ye's arms, then turned around and ran back, shouting back while running: "Brother, here is ten taels of silver. Dad said, you are a man, and you are a person who wants to do great things. Go out You can’t have money in your pocket outside.”

After the sound fell, the people had already run away, almost to the door of the house.

Guo Ye held the small cloth bag containing ten taels of silver tightly in his arms. The ten taels of silver held a small amount in his hand, but it weighed more than a thousand catties in Guo Ye's heart.

Looking at the faintly visible fenced courtyard of Guo's family, looking at the little girl who was still running on the road, and looking at the parents who were waving their hands at him outside the courtyard, Guo Ye's throat was a little choked up, but he resolutely held back, and at the same time I secretly swear to the front in my heart, father, mother, little sister, you wait for me, I will let you live a comfortable life of great wealth and wealth.

Chapter 9

After returning home, Guo Ye was full of worries, while Wu Xiuxiu was still hiding in the car without saying a word.

With the mule cart in front and the donkey behind, a group of people rushed back to Dongliu Township without talking.

Hurry up, and after about two hours, I returned to Wu's house in Dongliu Township.

It was already noon after entering Wu's house. After returning to Wu's house, Wu Xiuxiu changed her decent attitude towards the elders at Guo's house before, and went back to her room with Chunxiang's support without even bothering to say hello to Guo Ye. rest.

Guo Ye, who parted ways with Wu Xiuxiu, didn't eat any rice on the way back from Daze Village, and drank porridge in the morning. His stomach was already so hungry that his chest was on his back, and he wanted to go to the kitchen to make some food.Unexpectedly, he was stopped by Uncle Fu before he reached the kitchen, saying that the master had invited the uncle to talk to him in the hall.

Guo Ye was stunned for a moment, since he joined the Wu family, his cheap father-in-law, let alone chatting with him, has never even looked at him.

What's going on today?

Guo Ye was puzzled, but Wu Maocai took the initiative to invite him to talk in the lobby.

He couldn't help but speculate in his heart, could it be because the younger brother's recent performance is remarkable, the father-in-law loves his son-in-law, is it time for the fake son-in-law of the younger brother to become a regular?

Immediately, Guo Ye followed Uncle Fu leisurely to the hall of Wu's house while guessing in his heart.

The Wu family is a large house of ordinary squires, with only front and rear courtyards. The wing rooms, bedrooms and study rooms are all located in the back yard, while the hall is in the front yard. You only need to bypass the spacious patio to get to the hall.

After a while, Fu Bo led Guo Ye to the entrance of the hall, pointed to the hall and said that the master was waiting inside, and went straight to work.

Although it was not the first time for Guo Ye to meet his father-in-law Wu Maocai, it was the first time for a big girl to get on a sedan chair when talking on a formal occasion.

Unable to figure out how well Wu Maocai could sing, Guo Ye walked into the hall nervously, thinking that Wu Maocai, a fake father-in-law, would make a fool of him and pretend to be aggressive.

Who knows-

"Aha! Your son-in-law is back from family visits? How are your parents? Haha..."

As soon as Guo Ye stepped into the hall, he saw Wu Maocai approaching with his old face wrinkled like a yellow chrysanthemum, not to mention how attentive he was.

Ok?

Guo Ye was taken aback by Wu Maocai's sudden stickiness.

Whether it was the wedding ceremony at the beginning or the time we got along with the Wu family in the next few days, the father-in-law Wu Maocai always put on a bad face, as if someone owed him several hundred catties of rice to the Wu family.

what is it today?

The front is arrogant and the back is respectful, it is hard to figure out!

However, Guo Ye always believed that there must be demons when things go wrong, and he was so dazed that he really thought that Wu Maocai was going to make his fake son-in-law a regular.

It seems that today is a bad day!

In an instant, dozens of hypotheses circled in Guo Ye's mind. What exactly does the cheap father-in-law want to do?

So he clasped his fists in a polite and respectful voice, and said in a respectful voice: "My lord father-in-law is calling for my son-in-law, what can I order?"

Wu Maocai's fat face was always smiling, but when he heard the words "father-in-law" and "son-in-law" coming out of Guo Ye's mouth, the corners of his mouth still twitched.

Although Wu Maocai's unnatural expression flashed by, it was still captured sensitively by Guo Ye.

Got it!

Guo Ye dared to conclude that he was so cheap that he really didn't hold back a good fart in his heart, so do it!

That's all, Guo Ye thought about it, soldiers come to cover the water and earth, and see what tricks you can play, old boy.

Sure enough, Wu Maocai stepped forward and grabbed Guo Ye's arm with great enthusiasm, and said in a soft voice: "What can I tell you? You see, you have been married to our Wu family for so many days, and we haven't had a good chat yet. God. Come on, my son-in-law, sit down, please sit down! Let us have a good talk today."

Without any explanation, he directly pulled Guo Yeqiang and pushed him onto a chair on the right, then turned around and sat down in the upper hall.

Guo Ye didn't know what kind of idea Wu Maocai had in mind for the time being, so in desperation, he let it go and decided to adapt to the situation when the time came.

After returning to his seat, Wu Maocai continued to look like a good man with a fat face and smiled shyly: "My son-in-law, our Wu family can now set up a family business in Dongliu Township. What is the basis for you? Did you know?"

Guo Ye was sitting upright, listening to Wu Maocai's erratic words, and he was really not sure what the old boy wanted to say.

I thought of just saying a few words of compliment.

Unexpectedly, Wu Maocai did not wait for him to reply, and immediately took up the conversation himself, and said proudly between his brows: "Our Wu family is based on the diligence and thrift of several generations, and I, Wu Maocai, have been successful for more than ten or twenty years. Family business. Hehe, my son-in-law doesn’t know something. I don’t know how many people miss our Wu family’s family business. It’s a pity, who made the Wu family come to my generation. Wu Maocai has no children and no successors. Where's the daughter?"

Guo Ye became more and more confused as he listened. What does this have to do with Lao Tzu?No matter how big your Wu family's property is, it has nothing to do with our fake son-in-law.

Immediately afterwards, after sighing a few times from Ai Ziplain, Wu Maocai put his right hand on the corner of the Eight Immortals table, knocked lightly on his own, and then sighed: "It is difficult to start a business, and it is even more difficult to keep a business! Not to mention that Li is in front of Liu's house." After several times of coveting and provoking, he said that that bastard son of Liu Laolai's family broke into the mansion last time and made trouble. Alas, fortunately, the son-in-law sent him away, otherwise, otherwise it would be really..."

Damn, after listening to Guo Ye, the old boy still didn't get into the topic, so he couldn't help but lose his patience.

So he swept away the previous respect, and said in a flat tone with no expression on his face: "Father-in-law, if you have something to say, just say it."

Uh……

Now it's Wu Mao's turn to be dumb. It's a waste of saliva to pave the way for such things?

Immediately afterward, Wu Maocai restrained his theatrical smile just now, and asked in a slightly cold tone: "My son-in-law, you also know that dozens of members of the Wu family live on the rent of hundreds of acres of land in Dongliu Township, earning a living." This amount of money is definitely not easy! I wonder what your future plans are?"

That being the case, Wu Maocai didn't bother to hide it, and directly opened the skylight to speak brightly.

Hearing Wu Maocai's words, Guo Ye frowned slightly, thinking, what's the matter?Could it be that the Wu family wanted to demolish the bridge after crossing the river, kill the donkey after unloading the mill, and drive his fake son-in-law out of the Wu family?

Immediately, he couldn't help being angry with Wuming in his heart, do you really think that Lao Tzu is that stupid ass who is slaughtered?

If it hadn't been before the wedding ceremony, before lifting Wu Xiuxiu's hijab to see her true face, before returning to Daze Village to see the poverty of Guo's family, Guo Ye really wished that Wu Maocai would drive him out of Wu's house immediately .

Unfortunately now—
