Dress up as a farmer's wife from the Wang family and fight for the best with space

"Old Mrs. Gu, I'm afraid you have forgotten that you accepted a bride price of five taels of silver from me to marry Yunxi to my son." Mrs. He was really angry, and her in-laws stopped shouting.

It was the first time that Gu Yunxi saw that a good-tempered person like her mother-in-law could get angry sometimes, and she couldn't help but be a little stunned.

Mrs. Gu was even more surprised to see Mr. He like this. She came to Lu's house a few days ago and even though there was a scene, Ms. He didn't say anything. She thought Mr. He was a good person.

Unexpectedly, this time, she would actually pull off her fig leaf in front of everyone.

He did receive a bride price of five taels of silver. Ordinary people only get one tael of silver to marry a girl. If you sell your daughter for five taels, you will be stabbed in the back.

People outside also spread rumors about this matter, but there was no evidence, and she never admitted it to the outside world.

"I...I...I didn't." Even though Mrs. Gu was as shameless as she was, she was also annoyed and ashamed at this time, and wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl in.

"In-laws, what are you talking about? Our Gu family is a family of scholars. How could we accept such a large amount of bride price? Misunderstandings are all misunderstandings." Mrs. Fang became anxious and said with a smile that was uglier than crying. .

"Misunderstanding? Do you want me to call the red matchmaker from your village now? Ask her how many taels of silver I gave as a bride price?"

Looking at the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, Mr. He felt more and more that they looked ugly, and she really regretted it. When Yunxi said she didn't want to come back, she still persuaded her to go back. Unexpectedly, this really shot herself in the foot.

Seeing He like this, everyone knew that He was telling the truth. Besides, He was usually very popular and well-known in the village, so it must be true that he was so angry.

"Oh, this old lady, I didn't expect to be so thick-skinned. She sold her granddaughter for five taels of silver and had her face come to her. It's really embarrassing!"

"I heard that the mother was not Jianchuan's wife. She was married later. People say that if you marry a stepmother, you will have a stepfather. It's really pitiful. If someone is not your own child, you can do whatever you want."

The villagers who were watching were all pointing at Mrs. Gu and Mr. Fang, except Mrs. Li, who stood in the crowd and watched coldly, silently.

Seeing all the half-immortals leaving, and being surrounded by so many people from Xijiang Village, pointing and pointing, Mrs. Gu became angry, pointed at Gu Yunxi and said: "Get out of my way, you Lu family, please treat me in the future." Even if you don’t come, you damn girl, don’t come back if you can.”

Yo? Are you threatening? Gu Yunxi's eyelashes trembled slightly without raising his head.

Seeing that Gu Yunxi ignored her, Mrs. Gu and Fang didn't dare to make trouble in front of everyone, so they had to leave angrily.

"Are you okay?" Lu Jianchuan walked over and looked directly into Gu Yunxi's eyes with his deep eyes.

Gu Yunxi shook his head, smiled and asked, "It's okay, what about the land where our house is built?"

"I think it's pretty good. There's a whole bamboo forest behind you. You should like it." Lu Jianchuan saw her smile and felt a little more relieved. When he heard her say "our family", he felt a little bit sweeter in his heart, just like her. Talk about the condition of the land on which the house is built.

"Eh? How do you know I like bamboo forests?" Gu Yunxi blinked her big eyes and looked at Lu Jianchuan curiously. She had never told anyone that she liked bamboo forests.

"Guess." Lu Jianchuan said with a smile, turned around and left, leaving Gu Yunxi with a limp back.

Seeing Lu Jianchuan's limping back fading away, Gu Yunxi felt a pang of distress inexplicably from the bottom of his heart. It was such a pity that such a good-looking man was lame!

I don’t know when I will earn a lot of money? Only if you have money can you hire the best doctor and buy the best medicinal materials to cure his leg.

However, Lu Jianchuan didn't know what Gu Yunxi was planning at this time. He wanted to buy something, but he didn't want to ask his parents for money, let alone use Gu Yunxi's money.

He was deciding whether to go to the town to take over some book-copying work, or to ask Father Lu to cut bamboo and make some handmade baskets to see if he could sell it for some money.

The next day, Father Lu hired a craftsman to measure the foundation.

The number of bricks and tiles needed to build a house must be measured by the craftsmen. Based on the size of the foundation and the house, the number of bricks and tiles that need to be purchased is estimated.

The craftsman was an experienced craftsman. He took his two apprentices and quickly made the measurements. Mr. Lu borrowed the village chief's oxcart and went to the town with the craftsman to buy bricks and tiles.

It just so happened that usually you still need to make a reservation for blue bricks. This time when Father Lu went there, there were quite a few green bricks, so you could buy enough in one trip. However, the oxcart cannot be pulled in one trip.

"My boss, there is an oxcart rental next door. See if you can rent a few and pull them all in one trip." The craftsman suggested to Father Lu.

"That's fine, I can finish it in one trip, so I feel more at ease." So Father Lu rented a few ox carts near the brick kiln and took all the bricks back to Xijiang Village in one trip.

On the way back, everyone in the village could see that there were four ox carts. Father Lu was driving the village chief's ox in front, and the rented ox cart was behind. Looking at it, it looked a bit like a motorcade, and the momentum was quite majestic.

"Dad! Dad!" Lu Jian'an rushed over excitedly when he saw Dad Lu driving an ox cart with a cart full of bricks, followed by three similar carts.

When the villagers saw it, they all asked: "Hey! Brother Lu, is your family going to build a house?"

"Are these bricks on this oxcart? These things are so expensive! Your family is so prosperous!" The envious eyes of the villagers made Father Lu feel proud and filled with emotion.

Over the years, my family has been almost the poorest in the village. Now that life is finally getting better, I really feel proud!

A young daughter-in-law holding a child asked: "Uncle Lu, your family is building a house, will you please hire some laborers? Our family has been busy harvesting rice these days. When you are free in the next few days, let my family help. chant!"

"Uncle Lu, when are you going to build a house? Our family will be free in a few days..." Another young daughter-in-law also rushed to say.

When Father Lu saw it, he didn't directly respond, but said, "I'll discuss it with my family when I go back, and I'll come back to you if I need it."

After finally driving the ox cart to the land where the house was to be built, Gu Yunxi, Lu Jianchuan, He and Lu Qingqing had been waiting there to unload the bricks and pile them aside.

As we started unloading, the village chief's eldest son and daughter-in-law came.

"Auntie, let's help." Lu Yuanping, the village eldest son, grew up with Liang's childhood sweetheart. Both husband and wife were honest and loyal people.

Seeing them all coming, Mr. He quickly stopped to stop Mr. Liang and said, "Oh, no, no, no, you guys are serious. Even the little ones in the family need to be watched."

Lu Yuanping had been married to Mr. Liang for many years before giving birth to a daughter. She was now more than one year old, and she was at the age to be looked after.

"Aunt, Yinyin is at home and my mother is watching. It doesn't matter." Mrs. Liang smiled, and she and Lu Yuanping started to move the bricks.

Seeing their persistence, He didn't say anything more. She just kept this feeling in mind and figured that they couldn't let their help go in vain.
