New widow

The news that Butcher Chen had killed the plasterer quickly spread throughout the city. When Mrs. Du heard the news, she put her heart in her stomach. When Liu Daniu came back, Mrs. Du said to her son, "Where is the money?"

"What kind of silver?" Liu Daniu pretended not to know, and Mrs. Du patted her son a few times: "Don't act stupid in front of me, of course it's the reward of 20 taels of silver."

"Mom, that silver is what Madam Kuang said she would give, so I have to wait until the Yamen confirms it before I can ask for the silver reward." Liu Daniu said with a smile, and Mrs. Du glared at him: "Don't say goodbye. idea.”

"Mom, how can I have any other ideas?" Liu Daniu cried out, and Mrs. Du twisted his ears: "I will wait for the money to arrange a marriage for you."

Liu Daniu's wife died a few months ago when she gave birth to a baby, and the newborn child died after only a few days. When Liu Daniu heard his mother say this, he exclaimed: "Marry a wife, marry a wife. Mother, this time, don't let her go to the fields with you even if she's pregnant."

"What nonsense are you talking about? Our family relies on the vegetables grown on a few acres of land. If she doesn't follow me to the fields, where will the money be?" Mrs. Du's eyebrows raised again, and Liu Daniu opened his lips, trying to defend himself. Not knowing how to defend herself, Mrs. Du happily calculated how to get the silver reward. Thinking about it, Mrs. Du couldn't sit still: "Tomorrow I will go to the city to deliver food, and I will go find a matchmaker."

"This matchmaker was kicked out by Madam Kuang last time, right?" Liu Daniu asked casually, but Madam Du glared at her son again: "It doesn't matter that you always come here to ask these questions.

If you want something, this matchmaker said matchmaking, that's very good. "

"Yes, yes!" Liu Daniu sighed and asked curiously: "Mom, how come you know that Brother Chen, no, that death row prisoner, killed someone?"

"My guess is that he suddenly sprained his foot. He must have done something wrong." Mrs. Du insisted that Liu Daniu only thought about his own money and his wife, so Liu Daniu said nothing.

Mrs. Du delivered the dishes to Shangshu Mansion the next day. The housekeeper who received the dishes from Shangshu Mansion saw Mrs. Du and smiled on her face: "Congratulations, congratulations."

Mrs. Du didn't know why this person asked such a question, so she kept smiling: "Why is this?"

"After taking the money and throwing the matter away, our wife will definitely use you in the future. Isn't this just to congratulate you?" The housekeeper's wife's words made Mrs. Du happy but she didn't dare to say anything, she just said with a smile: " This is also because my wife cultivated me, but this matter..."

"You don't need to ask anymore about this matter. After all, it's just an insignificant person who died." The housekeeper said this in a high tone, and Mrs. Du immediately responded. She didn't dare to ask more questions.

After the food was delivered, Mrs. Du went to find a matchmaker. When she heard that Mrs. Du was looking for another wife, the matchmaker laughed and said, "Your son has also been married twice. Why don't you just marry your niece?" A widower and a widow just happen to be a couple, and your grandnephew becomes your grandson. Isn’t it great to be a pair!"

"Fart!" Although she knew it was a joke, Mrs. Du still slapped the matchmaker: "No matter what my son says, he is still very talented. Besides, his cousin is five years older than him.

Years old, I am still looking for a daughter-in-law who is five years younger. "

"You also know I'm joking." The matchmaker said with a smile, and took out the Geng Tie from several girls and talked about it with Mrs. Du. Mrs. Du looked at the Geng Tie and chose a few, waiting for the matchmaker. Let's go and say goodbye.

After finishing things here, Mrs. Du remembered Su Qiao's 20 taels of silver reward, so she simply went to Su Qiao's side. As soon as she walked to the edge of the house, she saw Granny Wu opening the door and walking out. Granny Du hurriedly stepped forward to stop Granny Wu. Grandma: "Auntie."

"It's you, why are you here now?" Nanny Wu smiled and said hello, and Mrs. Du smiled along with her: "I'm here now. There are two things to do. One is to deliver food here. "Son, there's another one," Mrs. Du deliberately lowered her voice: "At this moment, there are rumors outside that the real culprit is that Butcher Chen. I'm not hiding from you, it was my son who took the government to go, these 20 taels Silver reward?"

Mother Wu smiled: "You are here by chance. Our lady was just talking about the 20 taels of silver reward. She also said that whoever leads the government to go there will be rewarded with the 20 taels of silver."

"Of course it's my son!" Mrs. Du thought that the 20 taels of silver reward was about to come to her hands. Her voice became much louder, so Aunt Wu led Mrs. Du inside: "In that case, come with me. Lady."

Suqiao was in the backyard at the moment. Seeing Sister-in-law Wu cooking that kind of food, Mrs. Du felt unhappy at first, but Mrs. Du held it back and just smiled at Suqiao and said: " There are all noble people here, why do they still grow their own vegetables?"

"It's just a few common vegetables. I grow them for fun. The whole family can eat them. How can I grow them?"

Not enough. "Suqiao said with a smile, Xiao Wu's sister-in-law had already raised her head and said with a smile: "Aunt Du, come and see if my vegetables are growing well? "

"You are so ingenious, this vegetable is naturally grown well." Mrs. Du's words were a little perfunctory, but Sister-in-law Wu seemed not to hear the perfunctory words in her words, and just smiled at Suqiao and said: "Madam, you I also heard that this vegetable is grown well."

"This kind of vegetables is not much different from growing flowers." Su Qiao also said with a smile. Mrs. Du hurriedly stretched out her hand to cover Su Qiao from the sun: "The sun is still very hot. Madam, please go inside, not outside."

Suqiao responded and walked inside. When they reached the corridor, Xia Yun served tea. Suqiao took a cup of tea and said with a smile: "You are here today because you have something to do."

"To tell you the truth, I came here for two reasons. The vegetables these days are also grown in my family. How about you eating them all the time?" Mrs. Du asked back first, then Su Qiao said to Grandma Wu. : "It turns out that the dishes for the past two days were delivered here. The food is different from the original, and it's fresher."

"I'm not bragging, my food is the best among all the people in this country." Mrs. Du's words made Suqiao smile: "It's true."

"The second thing is the 20 taels of silver reward." Mrs. Du simply said the words, Suqiao nodded: "The 20 taels of silver reward, so your son took the government to the government?"

"Yes!" Mrs. Du was still respectful, Suqiao nodded, and said to Grandma Wu: "Prepare the car."

"Where are you going?" Mrs. Du didn't know what was going on. Suqiao already said with a smile: "I must go to the Yamen to ask about this matter."

clear. "

"The Yamen side can certainly prove it." When it came to going to the Yamen, Mrs. Du was honest, but she had a troubled look on her face.
