The husband's son-in-law
Chapter 23
Gu Zhao went home and entered the back room first, sat at the desk, took a piece of paper on which he had written notes, turned it over, and recorded it behind his back.He has to take a look at the fertilizers slowly to find out the fertilizers that are suitable for mass production and cost little money.
There are all kinds of modern fertilizers, such as potassium fertilizer, nitrogen fertilizer, and phosphorus fertilizer. The extraction of these requires containers, so don't even think about it.Simpler, there is ammonium nitrate fertilizer, which is simple, only needs to ferment urine, add raw gypsum powder, and then mix together and let it ferment.
There is also urea fertilizer, which is also urine plus gypsum.
These two are acidic fertilizers, suitable for alkaline land, rice topdressing.
The main component of marble is calcium carbonate, which is decomposed at high temperature to produce quicklime, and the reaction of quicklime and water is slaked lime, which is calcium hydroxide.Gypsum is slaked lime.
Marble is a natural mineral, and it stands to reason that it should exist in this era.
"Zhou Zhou, what does Uncle Wang use to order tofu?" Gu Zhao remembered whether he used plaster to order tofu?
Li Zhouzhou: "I don't know, this tofu-making craft is passed down exclusively by the Wang family, and no one in the village has inquired about it." In fact, someone has inquired about it. Uncle Wang makes a lot of money just selling tofu every winter. Someone in the village must remember it. I have counted behind my back, greedy is greedy, but if you ask, you will be scolded.
"Msanggong asked if this has something to do with the harvest in the field?"
Gu Zhao explained to Zhou Zhou in simple words: "It has something to do with it. If the tofu is made with gypsum, it needs to be added with urine and fermented before it can be used. The specifics will have to be studied by the two of us later."
He knows the theory, but he has never done it in practice, so he has to try the ratio slowly, otherwise what will happen if the rice burns to death?I would rather be lighter than thicker.
"Is it difficult to ask?" Gu Zhao guessed, and said, "Our family only asks about gypsum, and won't secretly learn how to make tofu. Can you explain it clearly?"
Li Zhouzhou: "Uncle Wang is a very good person, but he is not a good husband, Wang Ergou."
Gu Zhao seldom heard Zhou Zhou dislike someone like this, and he didn't hide the expression on his face, which shows that Wang Ergou is really not a thing.
"But why is Uncle Wang also surnamed Wang?"
Li Zhouzhou said: "Uncle Wang was picked up by Aunt Wang Ergou. Everyone in this village knows that later on, Wang's family was poor and Wang Ergou couldn't afford a wife, so he asked Uncle Wang to marry Wang Ergou."
In this way, there is no need to give dowry money.
Seeing Zhou Zhou's unhappy face, Gu Zhao moved his buttocks to the stool, and asked Zhou Zhou to sit down and speak slowly.Li Zhouzhou then sat down and leaned against his husband-in-law, and said, "I watched Uncle Wang go about his life since I was a child, and I secretly swore in my heart that even if I don't marry someone, I won't marry someone like Wang Ergou."
Grandpa Wang Ergou’s generation lived well in the village, with plenty of paddy fields and hardworking people. Later, he married his son a wife, and the houses were all built with green bricks and tiles, which were the first batch of buildings in the village.The daughter-in-law she married was Wang Ergou's wife, she was very good-looking and good-natured, especially her mother's family was well-established, and she passed on the tofu craft to her daughter and brought it into the Wang family.
Of course, the Wang family also gave a lot of betrothal gifts, a total of six taels of silver.
At that time, when the village mentioned it, no one would boast that Aunt Wang Ergou married well, the Wang family valued it, and she would enjoy endless blessings in the future.
"According to what you say, the life of the Wang family must be good or bad." Gu Zhao accosted his wife, chatting about this kind of thing, it is necessary to be flattering, otherwise the wife's stand-alone cross talk would be boring.
Especially Zhou Zhou from his family is still a person who doesn't like to talk about such things, so it's rare to talk about it and cheer him up.
Li Zhouzhou then said: "I don't know about the days of envy. I was not born at that time, and I heard from grandma. The conditions of the Wang family were first-class in the village at that time. Otherwise, Wang Ergou, Mrs. Wang, would not have picked up Uncle Wang. Speaking of raising, no one in his family can say no."
It is this principle.
There are some families in the village who are struggling to feed their own children. If there is a real shortage, how can they be willing to raise an abandoned baby?
It was Wang Ergou, who had just had a miscarriage not long ago. She went to the town with other people in the village. On the way, she heard a faint cry on the side of the field. When she went over, she saw a baby wrapped in an old swaddle in the cold weather. I don’t know how long. , the child's face is blue from the cold, if not raised, the child will die.
Aunt Wang Ergou just lost a child. She couldn't see this kind of thing, so she showed kindness and took the child to the town to see a doctor first.Later, when I came back, the villagers said that although the child was picked up, it was just a brother who only spent on food, and when he grew up, he would get a bride price when he married.
Although it is not much, it is also a human life.
The Wang family took care of it.In the second year, Wang Ergou's mother became pregnant, and gave birth to a boy smoothly and safely. The nickname was Wang Ergou.
The village said that Wang Ergou was brought by a picked-up child. Wang Jia believed in these things, and he was never harsh on Uncle Wang.
"But now Uncle Wang is going back, and he will pay for it for the rest of his life." Li Zhouzhou said dryly. Seeing that the old man handed over the tea bowl and wanted to take it, he didn't want the old man to feed him, so he leaned over and took a sip in embarrassment, "Wang After Grandpa Ergou passed away, within a few years, Daddy Wang Ergou learned to play dice."
Gu Zhao: "Gambling? Then there's a reason for the bad life."
This era is not like modern times, and prices have changed a lot.It will be ten cents a liter of rice more than ten years ago, and it will still not make much difference in buying grain more than ten years later.There is not much change in the harvest in the field. If you sell it for less, you will gradually accumulate more. People in the village are more diligent and diligent, and life will always get better.
If the parents left a solid foundation and followed the steps, life would be different unless there were natural or man-made disasters.
"It's for money. I don't understand. Anyway, Wang Ergou's father sold the family's ten acres of paddy fields. Later, he ran to the town to play. His hand was interrupted and he couldn't do much work. The family relied on Uncle Wang and Wang. Ergou's mother will do it."
"Wang Ergou and his father are bad, they are playing for money, but the Wang family doesn't have much land now, so they can only play in the village. The family, big and small, whether it is in the field or at home, the whole family relies on Uncle Wang to support them. , Sometimes Wang Ergou wanted to rob Uncle Wang for selling tofu, and he opened his mouth and said, "Your life belongs to the Wang family. Without my mother, you would have died outside and dared to hide money secretly", and beat Uncle Wang." Li Zhouzhou Speaking of this, I am very angry.
Gu Zhao's face also became serious, but he just gave his wife some comfort first.
Before Oda was born, Uncle Wang had a difficult life. Every time Wang Ergou ran out of money, he would rob him of money, scolding him and making a mess.Uncle Wang's parents-in-law did not dare to fight against their son, because Wang Ergou was not stingy and anyone would beat him.
Even pushed it to his aunt.
As soon as Wang Ergou left, Uncle Wang's parents-in-law came out and said, "Ergou is still young and ignorant, you just have to bear with it, and you will look at the Wang family to support you."Or let Uncle Wang have a child, and when he has a child, he will tie up Wang Ergou and know about the Gu family.
But Uncle Wang lost his health and had a hard time getting pregnant. When he had nothing to look forward to, he became pregnant with Xiaotian.After Oda was born, Uncle Wang's parents-in-law felt that his son was sensible, but of course he didn't.
"... Later, I may feel that I owe Uncle Wang. His mother Wang Ergou taught Uncle Wang the tofu craft."
"But what's the use? Uncle Wang has done more. Ergou's mother is too old and weak to drink medicine. Now it depends on Uncle Wang to support the family, and Xiaotian is weak and can't stand the cold." Li Zhouzhou mentioned it. Worry about others.
No matter how hard Uncle Wang did, life would be hard for so many people in the house to spend money.
"It's also fortunate that Xiaotian is sensible and well-behaved, and he knows how much he loves his father. I only hope that when Xiaotian grows up, Uncle Wang can live a good life for a few days." Li Zhouzhou hoped to say.
Gu Zhao didn't pour cold water on Zhou Zhou. Uncle Wang has endured all these years. As long as Wang Ergou is around, he will continue to gamble. Uncle Wang will only be tired.
In short, it is tiring.
The two talked about meeting Wang's family, but it was getting late outside, and Li Zhouzhou said it was time to cook, so he went to ask Uncle Wang tomorrow, he and Uncle Wang are still on good terms, so let's try to ask in private.
Gu Zhao continued to think about chemical fertilizers. There were many things summarized on the paper, such as ferrous sulfate fertilizer, which can also kill insects, but it needs iron filings to boil water and then add sulfuric acid-this is troublesome.
Besides, in this era, the control of ironware is strict, and there are two iron pots on the stove of the farmhouse, which are evidences that during the reign of Emperor Kang Jing, the people of the country lived and worked in peace and contentment.It's hard for you to put the rusty iron pot to cook.
Write and draw for a while.
Li Da came back from the yard, and said in the main room, "Gu Zhao, Zhou Zhou didn't cook?"
"Father, isn't Zhou Zhou in the kitchen?" Gu Zhao came out from the room.
Li Da shook his head, the stove room was empty, but there was firewood in the stove.
After thinking for a while, Gu Zhao knew where Zhou Zhou was going, and said to his father, "Father, I know where Zhou Zhou is, don't worry, I'll look for it for a while and I'll be back."
"Success." Li Da didn't stay in the main room, but went to the stove room.
Zhou Zhou didn't run far as the fire in the stove didn't go out, he probably took advantage of the time to get busy with something.Li Da was worried, and sat in front of the stove, eating peanuts while warming himself.
Gu Zhao guessed that Zhou Zhou went to Uncle Wang's house at the entrance of the village, and he just asked Uncle Wang if he used plaster for ordering tofu.
Just as Li Da and Gu Zhao guessed.
Li Zhouzhou was burning miscellaneous grain porridge in the pot, the lid was ajar, and he wiped his hands. The entrance of the village was not far from home, so he ran over to ask quickly.
It will be in the evening, when the sky is dark, every household will either cook, or wash up and go to the kang early.The Wang family eats two meals a day, and on New Year's Eve there may be a little bit of meat. Except for nourishing Xiao Tian and his in-laws, Uncle Wang himself is reluctant to eat it.
It is the meat cut on the [-]th day of the year, and the cabbage tofu is eaten by oneself, and the meat is given to the children.
Now Uncle Wang was pushing a stone mill to grind beans in the yard of his home. He heard the knock on the door, wiped his hands and went to open the door. When he saw Li Zhouzhou at the door, he was surprised, "Zhou Zhou, I want to buy tofu tomorrow morning, but there is no one now." gone."
The tofu business only stopped on the first day of the new year to avoid this taboo.In the rest of the time, Uncle Wang makes tofu. The family life is tight, so how can we do it without saving more money?
"Uncle Wang, I'm not here to buy tofu."
"Not buying tofu?" Uncle Wang asked Li Zhouzhou to talk in the yard.
Li Zhouzhou said: "It's like this. I came here to ask Uncle Wang if he used plaster tofu when he made tofu?" He was afraid that Uncle Wang might misunderstand, so he hurriedly said, "Don't worry, I won't learn it secretly. How to make tofu has other uses.”
Uncle Wang saw that Li Zhouzhou was in a hurry, so he had a rare smile on his face, and said, "I'm not afraid of you learning, I know you're not this kind of person, I'll get you some."
Li Zhouzhou is the elder brother, and Uncle Wang has nothing to hide, so he asks Zhou Zhou to come in and wait.
"Don't close the door." Uncle Wang said.
Li Zhouzhou half opened the courtyard door.Uncle Wang asked Li Zhouzhou to wait in the yard, so it is not good to invite Li Zhouzhou into the house. The inside is messy. His mother-in-law has been drinking medicine all year round, and the room smells like medicine. There is no oil lamp. The dark stove is the stove he bought. Well, the father-in-law still thinks it is expensive, so he burns it for a while during the day on weekdays, and burns the kang at night, so he doesn't need it.
This will be all asleep.
Uncle Wang entered the stove room, and came out with a rough porcelain bowl after a while, "Hey, this is it."
"Thank you, Uncle Wang, I'll buy tofu tomorrow and give you a bowl." Li Zhouzhou thought it was getting late, so running back and forth again would delay Uncle Wang's work.
Uncle Wang said it was done.At this time, Li Zhouzhou was about to leave, but who knew that the courtyard door was pushed open with a bang, and he shouted: "I knew you, a bitch, secretly stealing men behind my back, and I caught you today!" Bar!"
It was Wang Ergou who came back.
"Every time I ask you for money, and you cry and say you don't have any money, I think you deserve a beating, and you have given the money to other men behind my back. If you don't give me any money today, don't leave anyone. I will beat you to death." Two dogs, a bitch who steals men."
Wang Ergou drank a few ounces of horses and pissed in his mouth, so he didn't know anything. Every time he came back and asked Uncle Wang for money, at first Uncle Wang gave ten letters, but later Wang Ergou thought it was too little, so he caught Uncle Wang with his mouth. Scolding.
Uncle Wang was humiliated in this way, and for the first time he gave more money to spend, and then Wang Ergou got the sweetness and intensified.
Everyone in the village knows that Uncle Wang lives in the same yard with his parents-in-law Xiaotian, and he is busier than the cattle working in the fields at the village head's house every day. How can he have time to steal men?
Besides, with Uncle Wang's skinny appearance, the idlers in the village are also teasing women.
From the beginning, it was a lively scene. The big guys sympathized with poor Uncle Wang, and also scolded Wang Ergou for being inhuman, and randomly arranged the people in his house just to ask for money.But it's been a long time, and there will be a commotion every few days, and now no one is watching the excitement of the Wang family.
"No, look clearly, this is a brother, there is no man." Uncle Wang rushed to explain.
Wang Ergou was not drunk, but was deliberately drinking and begging for money. He pushed Uncle Wang away, pointed at his nose and scolded: "What brother, I can't see such a big man standing here. You steal a man behind my back. Dare to be stubborn now—"
As he spoke, he grabbed Uncle Wang by the neckline.
Li Zhouzhou put things in his hands on the window sill, and hurried up and said, "I am Li Da's brother, Li Zhouzhou, and I am a brother."
"Sexy, you brought the man into the house. If I hadn't come back by chance today, what would you two do..."
"No, Wang Ergou, don't talk nonsense, Li Zhouzhou is a brother, and we have nothing." Uncle Wang hurriedly explained.
The noise was so loud that Wang Ergou's parents and Xiaotian who had rested in the room got up.The old couple came out with an oil lamp, and Wang Ergou scolded blindly, saying that he wanted to arrest Uncle Wang for dipping in a pig cage and shamelessly stealing men, Uncle Wang explained.
The old couple took a look at the oil lamp, it was Li Zhouzhou, and he was also a brother, that was a misunderstanding.But Wang Ergou didn't let him go, the old couple cried, feeling sorry for their son who had taken money from New Year's Eve and disappeared, "My son, where have you been these few days, you are outside in the ice and snow I can't eat well, and I look thinner."
Father Wang Ergou said: "If he asks for money, you can give him the money. The noisy village can hear it."
"Did you hear that, give me the money quickly, one tael of silver." Wang Ergou asked Uncle Wang for money.
Uncle Wang heard about a tael of silver and said that there was not that much money in the house.The old couple were also stunned. It was Wang Ergou's father who wanted to take money to send his son, so he stammered and said: "One tael of silver is too much. Your mother and I and Xiaotian also spend a year. Not so much."
"If you don't give it to me, make a fuss. Go to the village chief and let the whole village judge. Wang Xue eats our family's food and drinks our family's food. His life is given by the Wang family. Now he is stealing people outside behind my back, even a brother Don't let it go."
Wang Xue is Uncle Wang's name, because Xue Tian picked it up.
"Don't talk nonsense, when did I steal someone, Li Zhouzhou is a brother, I am also a brother, parents are still in the house, he came to borrow things—"
"Who knows whether to borrow something or something else." Wang Ergou snorted, pointed at Wang Xue's face and scolded, "You are shameless, you are so angry that you want to find someone, and you don't even look at the place, who knows where Xiao Tian is? Which bastard—"
"Wang Ergou, what are you farting!"
Wang Xue didn't hold back and went up to rush at Wang Ergou, but even though he had been doing hard work all year round, it wasn't that Wang Ergou had a fat body raised by eating wine and meat.Li Zhouzhou really couldn't hold back and kicked him.
Coincidentally, when Wang Ergou lifted his foot, Li Zhouzhou kicked his other leg. Immediately, Wang Ergou lost his footing and fell to the ground. Er Gou scolded Li Zhouzhou for beating people.
When Gu Zhao came to find him, he heard about losing money and beating people from a long distance away. He frowned and quickened his pace, pushing open the wooden door of Wang's house.
"What's wrong with Zhou Zhou?" Gu Zhao saw Zhou Zhou in a messy place.
Li Zhouzhou found his husband, his face was red and green with anger, but he didn't know what to say, Wang Ergou is a rascal, he was entangled in that kick just now, and he was appointed to blackmail their house silver.
It's all because he was too impulsive.
To pay for their own money, or to pay for Li's family, the old couple of the Wang family shamelessly thought of the latter, anyway, if Li Zhouzhou hadn't come to visit this matter, they wouldn't have caused it.
Gu Zhao understood. He pressed Zhou Zhou's arm, not to worry, and said: "Nowadays, the government offices are closed during the Chinese New Year. After the Lantern Festival, since Wang Ergou wants to sue my family for hurting people, let's go to the prefecture and county to arrest him." Shout out grievances."
"Now that everyone is here, why don't we ask the village chief to come over and be a witness. I'll write a post. Once the [-]th is over, the two families will go immediately without delay."
Wang Ergou sued the village chief to scare Wang Xue. He knew that this brother who was raised by his family was afraid of getting into trouble, and would usually give money whenever he mentioned these things, so he yelled that he owed money this time in the town. I have a lot of money, so I want to ask for more. Of course it is impossible to sue the yamen.
"Who are you trying to scare? Li Zhouzhou kicked my leg, and I have to pay for breaking the sky, two taels of silver."
"Dali Civil Law No. 30 Eight Article Two Cases, framing a woman/brother stealing, there is no evidence, the brother and wife can sue the bitch, thirty rods, a fine of five hundred cash, and serious cases will be imprisoned for one month .”
Gu Zhao spoke confidently and with a serious face. After finishing speaking, he asked Zhou Zhou to call his father at home, and asked his father to invite the village chief to come, "It's not you, Wang Ergou, who give up now, it's my Li family who disagrees."
Li Zhouzhou believed in Mr. Xiang, seeing what Mr. Xiang was sure of, he couldn't suppress the anger in his heart, and said, "I'll go back and find my father to ask the village chief to come here."
"By the way, bring my pen, ink, paper and inkstone." Gu Zhao urged.
All of a sudden, the old couple of the Wang family were scared. Li Zhouzhou's brother could kick a kick so hard. They knew it was his son who wanted to extort money. Written, what should they do?
Immediately stopped Li Zhouzhou from going out, but Mrs. Wang Ergou couldn't stop her, so she hurriedly said to her daughter-in-law: "Go and stop him, it's all because of you."
Father Wang Ergou said that there is no need for compensation, no money.
"Wang Ergou is talking nonsense and ruining the reputation of my family Zhou Zhou. If you don't ask the village chief to come forward and make it clear, you will still treat my Li family as a bully." Gu Zhao refused to stop, saying: "Can you stop today and tomorrow?"
Aunt Wang Ergou at the gate of the courtyard blocked Li Zhouzhou from leaving, and begged his daughter-in-law to persuade Li Zhouzhou, but Gu Zhao was up to something.Wang Ergou on the ground saw that it was true, stood up angrily, his legs and feet were not in the slightest, and came up to grab Gu Zhao's clothes.
When Li Zhouzhou saw this, he hurried back to help his husband.
"If you punch me down, you really hurt me. Do you believe it if you ask your family to ask for another tael of silver?" Gu Zhao said calmly.
Li Zhouzhou stood in front of Mr. Xiang, clenched his fists angrily, "Sir, please don't stay here, let's go home and call Dad to come together, and call the village chief."
Seeing this, Wang Ergou's parents were crying and beating their daughter-in-law Wang Xue again, saying that Wang Xue is heartless and heartless, and our Wang family saved your life. I gave it to you, this is how you repay our royal family...
In the end, Wang Xuemu put on a face and was about to kneel down to Li Zhouzhou. Just as his legs were bent, Li Zhouzhou's sharp eyes and hands quickly blocked him.
"Uncle Wang, it's none of your business."
"Zhou Zhou, I beg you, let Wang Ergou go this time." Wang Xue couldn't cry, her eyes were stunned.
When Li Zhouzhou looked at his husband, he was angry and anxious, but he didn't know what to say.
Uncle Wang is pitiful, and everyone in the village knows why he didn't say nothing about it later, because no one cares about it.It’s like this every time. Once Wang Ergou beat Uncle Wang so hard that he couldn’t get out of bed. The villagers said to invite the village chief, but Wang Ergou’s parents scolded him back, saying that our Wang’s business has nothing to do with you. What are you yelling about when a dog beats his own wife?
Uncle Wang who was lying on the bed didn't care too much.
Since then, no one has been able to control it.
"I don't want to pursue it today. In the future, the king and the two dogs will continue to arrange to bite my family Zhou Zhou in the village. What should we do? Since we have to sue the officials, why don't we just settle it once? Sooner or later, we will go to jail."
"Don't talk, don't talk, Er Gou just drank too much and talked nonsense, there is no other meaning."
"That's right, they are brothers, what can happen?"
Wang Xue pleaded, but even Wang Ergou was cowardly and said he would not speak, so Gu Zhaocai nodded reluctantly and said: "If I hear any news about what happened tonight in the village, it will all come from your family, and I will sue Wang. Ergou, sue the Wang family."
That's the end of the matter.
Gu Zhao took Zhou Zhou to leave, and turned back when he thought of something.The two veterans of the Wang family were thinking about Wang Xue, and when they saw Gu Zhao and Li Zhouzhou coming back, they were so frightened that they didn't dare to say anything.
"Where's the plaster?" Gu Zhao asked.
He almost forgot that Zhou Zhou came to Wang's house to find plaster, and now that he has caused a lot of trouble, Zhou Zhou probably won't go to Uncle Wang's house to buy tofu for some time to come.
It must be difficult to do not want Uncle Wang to be caught between the parents-in-law.
Li Zhouzhou remembered, and brought it over from the windowsill of the stove house. Looking at the oil lamp and the moonlight of the Wang family, Gu Zhao could roughly see that there were white watery condensed flocs in the bowl, and he tapped some with his finger and put it in his mouth to taste. taste.
Not at all.
Think about it too, how can it be possible to use industrial gypsum powder for food.
Too busy tonight.
Gu Zhao put down the bowl and said, "No, let's go back." Then he took Zhou Zhou's hand out of the Wang's courtyard, and before he had gone far, he heard the parents of Wang Ergou inside scolding, of course they were scolding Li's family and Wang Xue , Said that Wang Xue disturbed the house spirit, and Wang Ergou's voice.
"They just cursed behind their backs, but they didn't dare to say it on the face. Wang Ergou was afraid of his father." Li Zhouzhou said in a sullen tone.He said that this is the heart of Mr. Kuan, but he is actually worried about Uncle Wang.
"If only I could come over tomorrow."
Gu Zhao knew that Zhou Zhou would blame himself, and said: "Wang Ergou will come back tonight. If he comes back to ask for money, will he scold Uncle Wang? If he opens his mouth for a tael of silver, if Uncle Wang doesn't give it to him, he might beat and scold him, right? ?”
"If you don't come tonight, will Uncle Wang suffer less? It is Wang Ergou's family who really caused Uncle Wang's situation."
If Uncle Wang, who was an abandoned baby in the snow, knew that he would live such a life in more than 30 years, he must have thought that he would be better off freezing to death, and begged the Wang family not to take this life.
"Sir, what you said is true." Li Zhouzhou sighed, "Everyone in the village knows that Uncle Wang is pitiful, but they can't help. I'm busy with farming and I have time to help."
"I really hope Oda can grow up quickly."
Li Zhouzhou put Wang Uncle's hope on Oda.Gu Zhao knew, however, that it was because of Xiao Tian's presence that Uncle Wang was able to bear with it and let him be a cow and a horse for the Wang family to be beaten and scolded by others.
But he didn't say that.
When he got home, the porridge was ready, Li Da saw that no one came back, so he took the pot down first.Seeing the two come back, they asked what happened.Li Zhouzhou said that he went to Uncle Wang's house at the entrance of the village, and happened to meet Wang Ergou.
Li Da frowned, "Wang Ergou bullied you?"
"No, father, my husband is protecting me." Li Zhouzhou said.
Li Da didn't believe it, Gu Zhaoxiao's body was almost the same as Zhou Zhou protecting Gu Zhao.
Li Zhouzhou then said: "Really, dad, I didn't suffer a loss. My husband said he wanted to sue Wang Ergou, what's his name..." It was too long to remember, so he couldn't help but look at him.
"The Dali Civil Law, I lied to scare Wang Ergou." Gu Zhao said.
Li Zhouzhou's eyes widened. If this nonsense is spread, will something happen to the lord?
"Wang Ergou's family will not go out to study indiscriminately. His family is at the entrance of the village, and there is only one family some distance away. Even if they hear the quarrel and dispute, they can't understand what I said." Gu Zhao said.
Li Da looked at Gu Zhao differently, thinking that his brother-in-law was bold and careful.
The family of three served porridge, and Li Zhouzhou chopped sauerkraut before he left, and they would eat in the main room by lighting the oil lamp.
Gu Zhao said while eating: "Actually, it's not a fabrication. Such a thing really happened, but there was no legislation. I went to the prefectural county to take an exam. From what I heard, such things are all decided by the officials."
Yuanshen had encountered it before, but the person who was bitten had stuffed money, and the verdict turned black and white, beat the victim's husband twenty sticks, and fined him.
There are all kinds of modern fertilizers, such as potassium fertilizer, nitrogen fertilizer, and phosphorus fertilizer. The extraction of these requires containers, so don't even think about it.Simpler, there is ammonium nitrate fertilizer, which is simple, only needs to ferment urine, add raw gypsum powder, and then mix together and let it ferment.
There is also urea fertilizer, which is also urine plus gypsum.
These two are acidic fertilizers, suitable for alkaline land, rice topdressing.
The main component of marble is calcium carbonate, which is decomposed at high temperature to produce quicklime, and the reaction of quicklime and water is slaked lime, which is calcium hydroxide.Gypsum is slaked lime.
Marble is a natural mineral, and it stands to reason that it should exist in this era.
"Zhou Zhou, what does Uncle Wang use to order tofu?" Gu Zhao remembered whether he used plaster to order tofu?
Li Zhouzhou: "I don't know, this tofu-making craft is passed down exclusively by the Wang family, and no one in the village has inquired about it." In fact, someone has inquired about it. Uncle Wang makes a lot of money just selling tofu every winter. Someone in the village must remember it. I have counted behind my back, greedy is greedy, but if you ask, you will be scolded.
"Msanggong asked if this has something to do with the harvest in the field?"
Gu Zhao explained to Zhou Zhou in simple words: "It has something to do with it. If the tofu is made with gypsum, it needs to be added with urine and fermented before it can be used. The specifics will have to be studied by the two of us later."
He knows the theory, but he has never done it in practice, so he has to try the ratio slowly, otherwise what will happen if the rice burns to death?I would rather be lighter than thicker.
"Is it difficult to ask?" Gu Zhao guessed, and said, "Our family only asks about gypsum, and won't secretly learn how to make tofu. Can you explain it clearly?"
Li Zhouzhou: "Uncle Wang is a very good person, but he is not a good husband, Wang Ergou."
Gu Zhao seldom heard Zhou Zhou dislike someone like this, and he didn't hide the expression on his face, which shows that Wang Ergou is really not a thing.
"But why is Uncle Wang also surnamed Wang?"
Li Zhouzhou said: "Uncle Wang was picked up by Aunt Wang Ergou. Everyone in this village knows that later on, Wang's family was poor and Wang Ergou couldn't afford a wife, so he asked Uncle Wang to marry Wang Ergou."
In this way, there is no need to give dowry money.
Seeing Zhou Zhou's unhappy face, Gu Zhao moved his buttocks to the stool, and asked Zhou Zhou to sit down and speak slowly.Li Zhouzhou then sat down and leaned against his husband-in-law, and said, "I watched Uncle Wang go about his life since I was a child, and I secretly swore in my heart that even if I don't marry someone, I won't marry someone like Wang Ergou."
Grandpa Wang Ergou’s generation lived well in the village, with plenty of paddy fields and hardworking people. Later, he married his son a wife, and the houses were all built with green bricks and tiles, which were the first batch of buildings in the village.The daughter-in-law she married was Wang Ergou's wife, she was very good-looking and good-natured, especially her mother's family was well-established, and she passed on the tofu craft to her daughter and brought it into the Wang family.
Of course, the Wang family also gave a lot of betrothal gifts, a total of six taels of silver.
At that time, when the village mentioned it, no one would boast that Aunt Wang Ergou married well, the Wang family valued it, and she would enjoy endless blessings in the future.
"According to what you say, the life of the Wang family must be good or bad." Gu Zhao accosted his wife, chatting about this kind of thing, it is necessary to be flattering, otherwise the wife's stand-alone cross talk would be boring.
Especially Zhou Zhou from his family is still a person who doesn't like to talk about such things, so it's rare to talk about it and cheer him up.
Li Zhouzhou then said: "I don't know about the days of envy. I was not born at that time, and I heard from grandma. The conditions of the Wang family were first-class in the village at that time. Otherwise, Wang Ergou, Mrs. Wang, would not have picked up Uncle Wang. Speaking of raising, no one in his family can say no."
It is this principle.
There are some families in the village who are struggling to feed their own children. If there is a real shortage, how can they be willing to raise an abandoned baby?
It was Wang Ergou, who had just had a miscarriage not long ago. She went to the town with other people in the village. On the way, she heard a faint cry on the side of the field. When she went over, she saw a baby wrapped in an old swaddle in the cold weather. I don’t know how long. , the child's face is blue from the cold, if not raised, the child will die.
Aunt Wang Ergou just lost a child. She couldn't see this kind of thing, so she showed kindness and took the child to the town to see a doctor first.Later, when I came back, the villagers said that although the child was picked up, it was just a brother who only spent on food, and when he grew up, he would get a bride price when he married.
Although it is not much, it is also a human life.
The Wang family took care of it.In the second year, Wang Ergou's mother became pregnant, and gave birth to a boy smoothly and safely. The nickname was Wang Ergou.
The village said that Wang Ergou was brought by a picked-up child. Wang Jia believed in these things, and he was never harsh on Uncle Wang.
"But now Uncle Wang is going back, and he will pay for it for the rest of his life." Li Zhouzhou said dryly. Seeing that the old man handed over the tea bowl and wanted to take it, he didn't want the old man to feed him, so he leaned over and took a sip in embarrassment, "Wang After Grandpa Ergou passed away, within a few years, Daddy Wang Ergou learned to play dice."
Gu Zhao: "Gambling? Then there's a reason for the bad life."
This era is not like modern times, and prices have changed a lot.It will be ten cents a liter of rice more than ten years ago, and it will still not make much difference in buying grain more than ten years later.There is not much change in the harvest in the field. If you sell it for less, you will gradually accumulate more. People in the village are more diligent and diligent, and life will always get better.
If the parents left a solid foundation and followed the steps, life would be different unless there were natural or man-made disasters.
"It's for money. I don't understand. Anyway, Wang Ergou's father sold the family's ten acres of paddy fields. Later, he ran to the town to play. His hand was interrupted and he couldn't do much work. The family relied on Uncle Wang and Wang. Ergou's mother will do it."
"Wang Ergou and his father are bad, they are playing for money, but the Wang family doesn't have much land now, so they can only play in the village. The family, big and small, whether it is in the field or at home, the whole family relies on Uncle Wang to support them. , Sometimes Wang Ergou wanted to rob Uncle Wang for selling tofu, and he opened his mouth and said, "Your life belongs to the Wang family. Without my mother, you would have died outside and dared to hide money secretly", and beat Uncle Wang." Li Zhouzhou Speaking of this, I am very angry.
Gu Zhao's face also became serious, but he just gave his wife some comfort first.
Before Oda was born, Uncle Wang had a difficult life. Every time Wang Ergou ran out of money, he would rob him of money, scolding him and making a mess.Uncle Wang's parents-in-law did not dare to fight against their son, because Wang Ergou was not stingy and anyone would beat him.
Even pushed it to his aunt.
As soon as Wang Ergou left, Uncle Wang's parents-in-law came out and said, "Ergou is still young and ignorant, you just have to bear with it, and you will look at the Wang family to support you."Or let Uncle Wang have a child, and when he has a child, he will tie up Wang Ergou and know about the Gu family.
But Uncle Wang lost his health and had a hard time getting pregnant. When he had nothing to look forward to, he became pregnant with Xiaotian.After Oda was born, Uncle Wang's parents-in-law felt that his son was sensible, but of course he didn't.
"... Later, I may feel that I owe Uncle Wang. His mother Wang Ergou taught Uncle Wang the tofu craft."
"But what's the use? Uncle Wang has done more. Ergou's mother is too old and weak to drink medicine. Now it depends on Uncle Wang to support the family, and Xiaotian is weak and can't stand the cold." Li Zhouzhou mentioned it. Worry about others.
No matter how hard Uncle Wang did, life would be hard for so many people in the house to spend money.
"It's also fortunate that Xiaotian is sensible and well-behaved, and he knows how much he loves his father. I only hope that when Xiaotian grows up, Uncle Wang can live a good life for a few days." Li Zhouzhou hoped to say.
Gu Zhao didn't pour cold water on Zhou Zhou. Uncle Wang has endured all these years. As long as Wang Ergou is around, he will continue to gamble. Uncle Wang will only be tired.
In short, it is tiring.
The two talked about meeting Wang's family, but it was getting late outside, and Li Zhouzhou said it was time to cook, so he went to ask Uncle Wang tomorrow, he and Uncle Wang are still on good terms, so let's try to ask in private.
Gu Zhao continued to think about chemical fertilizers. There were many things summarized on the paper, such as ferrous sulfate fertilizer, which can also kill insects, but it needs iron filings to boil water and then add sulfuric acid-this is troublesome.
Besides, in this era, the control of ironware is strict, and there are two iron pots on the stove of the farmhouse, which are evidences that during the reign of Emperor Kang Jing, the people of the country lived and worked in peace and contentment.It's hard for you to put the rusty iron pot to cook.
Write and draw for a while.
Li Da came back from the yard, and said in the main room, "Gu Zhao, Zhou Zhou didn't cook?"
"Father, isn't Zhou Zhou in the kitchen?" Gu Zhao came out from the room.
Li Da shook his head, the stove room was empty, but there was firewood in the stove.
After thinking for a while, Gu Zhao knew where Zhou Zhou was going, and said to his father, "Father, I know where Zhou Zhou is, don't worry, I'll look for it for a while and I'll be back."
"Success." Li Da didn't stay in the main room, but went to the stove room.
Zhou Zhou didn't run far as the fire in the stove didn't go out, he probably took advantage of the time to get busy with something.Li Da was worried, and sat in front of the stove, eating peanuts while warming himself.
Gu Zhao guessed that Zhou Zhou went to Uncle Wang's house at the entrance of the village, and he just asked Uncle Wang if he used plaster for ordering tofu.
Just as Li Da and Gu Zhao guessed.
Li Zhouzhou was burning miscellaneous grain porridge in the pot, the lid was ajar, and he wiped his hands. The entrance of the village was not far from home, so he ran over to ask quickly.
It will be in the evening, when the sky is dark, every household will either cook, or wash up and go to the kang early.The Wang family eats two meals a day, and on New Year's Eve there may be a little bit of meat. Except for nourishing Xiao Tian and his in-laws, Uncle Wang himself is reluctant to eat it.
It is the meat cut on the [-]th day of the year, and the cabbage tofu is eaten by oneself, and the meat is given to the children.
Now Uncle Wang was pushing a stone mill to grind beans in the yard of his home. He heard the knock on the door, wiped his hands and went to open the door. When he saw Li Zhouzhou at the door, he was surprised, "Zhou Zhou, I want to buy tofu tomorrow morning, but there is no one now." gone."
The tofu business only stopped on the first day of the new year to avoid this taboo.In the rest of the time, Uncle Wang makes tofu. The family life is tight, so how can we do it without saving more money?
"Uncle Wang, I'm not here to buy tofu."
"Not buying tofu?" Uncle Wang asked Li Zhouzhou to talk in the yard.
Li Zhouzhou said: "It's like this. I came here to ask Uncle Wang if he used plaster tofu when he made tofu?" He was afraid that Uncle Wang might misunderstand, so he hurriedly said, "Don't worry, I won't learn it secretly. How to make tofu has other uses.”
Uncle Wang saw that Li Zhouzhou was in a hurry, so he had a rare smile on his face, and said, "I'm not afraid of you learning, I know you're not this kind of person, I'll get you some."
Li Zhouzhou is the elder brother, and Uncle Wang has nothing to hide, so he asks Zhou Zhou to come in and wait.
"Don't close the door." Uncle Wang said.
Li Zhouzhou half opened the courtyard door.Uncle Wang asked Li Zhouzhou to wait in the yard, so it is not good to invite Li Zhouzhou into the house. The inside is messy. His mother-in-law has been drinking medicine all year round, and the room smells like medicine. There is no oil lamp. The dark stove is the stove he bought. Well, the father-in-law still thinks it is expensive, so he burns it for a while during the day on weekdays, and burns the kang at night, so he doesn't need it.
This will be all asleep.
Uncle Wang entered the stove room, and came out with a rough porcelain bowl after a while, "Hey, this is it."
"Thank you, Uncle Wang, I'll buy tofu tomorrow and give you a bowl." Li Zhouzhou thought it was getting late, so running back and forth again would delay Uncle Wang's work.
Uncle Wang said it was done.At this time, Li Zhouzhou was about to leave, but who knew that the courtyard door was pushed open with a bang, and he shouted: "I knew you, a bitch, secretly stealing men behind my back, and I caught you today!" Bar!"
It was Wang Ergou who came back.
"Every time I ask you for money, and you cry and say you don't have any money, I think you deserve a beating, and you have given the money to other men behind my back. If you don't give me any money today, don't leave anyone. I will beat you to death." Two dogs, a bitch who steals men."
Wang Ergou drank a few ounces of horses and pissed in his mouth, so he didn't know anything. Every time he came back and asked Uncle Wang for money, at first Uncle Wang gave ten letters, but later Wang Ergou thought it was too little, so he caught Uncle Wang with his mouth. Scolding.
Uncle Wang was humiliated in this way, and for the first time he gave more money to spend, and then Wang Ergou got the sweetness and intensified.
Everyone in the village knows that Uncle Wang lives in the same yard with his parents-in-law Xiaotian, and he is busier than the cattle working in the fields at the village head's house every day. How can he have time to steal men?
Besides, with Uncle Wang's skinny appearance, the idlers in the village are also teasing women.
From the beginning, it was a lively scene. The big guys sympathized with poor Uncle Wang, and also scolded Wang Ergou for being inhuman, and randomly arranged the people in his house just to ask for money.But it's been a long time, and there will be a commotion every few days, and now no one is watching the excitement of the Wang family.
"No, look clearly, this is a brother, there is no man." Uncle Wang rushed to explain.
Wang Ergou was not drunk, but was deliberately drinking and begging for money. He pushed Uncle Wang away, pointed at his nose and scolded: "What brother, I can't see such a big man standing here. You steal a man behind my back. Dare to be stubborn now—"
As he spoke, he grabbed Uncle Wang by the neckline.
Li Zhouzhou put things in his hands on the window sill, and hurried up and said, "I am Li Da's brother, Li Zhouzhou, and I am a brother."
"Sexy, you brought the man into the house. If I hadn't come back by chance today, what would you two do..."
"No, Wang Ergou, don't talk nonsense, Li Zhouzhou is a brother, and we have nothing." Uncle Wang hurriedly explained.
The noise was so loud that Wang Ergou's parents and Xiaotian who had rested in the room got up.The old couple came out with an oil lamp, and Wang Ergou scolded blindly, saying that he wanted to arrest Uncle Wang for dipping in a pig cage and shamelessly stealing men, Uncle Wang explained.
The old couple took a look at the oil lamp, it was Li Zhouzhou, and he was also a brother, that was a misunderstanding.But Wang Ergou didn't let him go, the old couple cried, feeling sorry for their son who had taken money from New Year's Eve and disappeared, "My son, where have you been these few days, you are outside in the ice and snow I can't eat well, and I look thinner."
Father Wang Ergou said: "If he asks for money, you can give him the money. The noisy village can hear it."
"Did you hear that, give me the money quickly, one tael of silver." Wang Ergou asked Uncle Wang for money.
Uncle Wang heard about a tael of silver and said that there was not that much money in the house.The old couple were also stunned. It was Wang Ergou's father who wanted to take money to send his son, so he stammered and said: "One tael of silver is too much. Your mother and I and Xiaotian also spend a year. Not so much."
"If you don't give it to me, make a fuss. Go to the village chief and let the whole village judge. Wang Xue eats our family's food and drinks our family's food. His life is given by the Wang family. Now he is stealing people outside behind my back, even a brother Don't let it go."
Wang Xue is Uncle Wang's name, because Xue Tian picked it up.
"Don't talk nonsense, when did I steal someone, Li Zhouzhou is a brother, I am also a brother, parents are still in the house, he came to borrow things—"
"Who knows whether to borrow something or something else." Wang Ergou snorted, pointed at Wang Xue's face and scolded, "You are shameless, you are so angry that you want to find someone, and you don't even look at the place, who knows where Xiao Tian is? Which bastard—"
"Wang Ergou, what are you farting!"
Wang Xue didn't hold back and went up to rush at Wang Ergou, but even though he had been doing hard work all year round, it wasn't that Wang Ergou had a fat body raised by eating wine and meat.Li Zhouzhou really couldn't hold back and kicked him.
Coincidentally, when Wang Ergou lifted his foot, Li Zhouzhou kicked his other leg. Immediately, Wang Ergou lost his footing and fell to the ground. Er Gou scolded Li Zhouzhou for beating people.
When Gu Zhao came to find him, he heard about losing money and beating people from a long distance away. He frowned and quickened his pace, pushing open the wooden door of Wang's house.
"What's wrong with Zhou Zhou?" Gu Zhao saw Zhou Zhou in a messy place.
Li Zhouzhou found his husband, his face was red and green with anger, but he didn't know what to say, Wang Ergou is a rascal, he was entangled in that kick just now, and he was appointed to blackmail their house silver.
It's all because he was too impulsive.
To pay for their own money, or to pay for Li's family, the old couple of the Wang family shamelessly thought of the latter, anyway, if Li Zhouzhou hadn't come to visit this matter, they wouldn't have caused it.
Gu Zhao understood. He pressed Zhou Zhou's arm, not to worry, and said: "Nowadays, the government offices are closed during the Chinese New Year. After the Lantern Festival, since Wang Ergou wants to sue my family for hurting people, let's go to the prefecture and county to arrest him." Shout out grievances."
"Now that everyone is here, why don't we ask the village chief to come over and be a witness. I'll write a post. Once the [-]th is over, the two families will go immediately without delay."
Wang Ergou sued the village chief to scare Wang Xue. He knew that this brother who was raised by his family was afraid of getting into trouble, and would usually give money whenever he mentioned these things, so he yelled that he owed money this time in the town. I have a lot of money, so I want to ask for more. Of course it is impossible to sue the yamen.
"Who are you trying to scare? Li Zhouzhou kicked my leg, and I have to pay for breaking the sky, two taels of silver."
"Dali Civil Law No. 30 Eight Article Two Cases, framing a woman/brother stealing, there is no evidence, the brother and wife can sue the bitch, thirty rods, a fine of five hundred cash, and serious cases will be imprisoned for one month .”
Gu Zhao spoke confidently and with a serious face. After finishing speaking, he asked Zhou Zhou to call his father at home, and asked his father to invite the village chief to come, "It's not you, Wang Ergou, who give up now, it's my Li family who disagrees."
Li Zhouzhou believed in Mr. Xiang, seeing what Mr. Xiang was sure of, he couldn't suppress the anger in his heart, and said, "I'll go back and find my father to ask the village chief to come here."
"By the way, bring my pen, ink, paper and inkstone." Gu Zhao urged.
All of a sudden, the old couple of the Wang family were scared. Li Zhouzhou's brother could kick a kick so hard. They knew it was his son who wanted to extort money. Written, what should they do?
Immediately stopped Li Zhouzhou from going out, but Mrs. Wang Ergou couldn't stop her, so she hurriedly said to her daughter-in-law: "Go and stop him, it's all because of you."
Father Wang Ergou said that there is no need for compensation, no money.
"Wang Ergou is talking nonsense and ruining the reputation of my family Zhou Zhou. If you don't ask the village chief to come forward and make it clear, you will still treat my Li family as a bully." Gu Zhao refused to stop, saying: "Can you stop today and tomorrow?"
Aunt Wang Ergou at the gate of the courtyard blocked Li Zhouzhou from leaving, and begged his daughter-in-law to persuade Li Zhouzhou, but Gu Zhao was up to something.Wang Ergou on the ground saw that it was true, stood up angrily, his legs and feet were not in the slightest, and came up to grab Gu Zhao's clothes.
When Li Zhouzhou saw this, he hurried back to help his husband.
"If you punch me down, you really hurt me. Do you believe it if you ask your family to ask for another tael of silver?" Gu Zhao said calmly.
Li Zhouzhou stood in front of Mr. Xiang, clenched his fists angrily, "Sir, please don't stay here, let's go home and call Dad to come together, and call the village chief."
Seeing this, Wang Ergou's parents were crying and beating their daughter-in-law Wang Xue again, saying that Wang Xue is heartless and heartless, and our Wang family saved your life. I gave it to you, this is how you repay our royal family...
In the end, Wang Xuemu put on a face and was about to kneel down to Li Zhouzhou. Just as his legs were bent, Li Zhouzhou's sharp eyes and hands quickly blocked him.
"Uncle Wang, it's none of your business."
"Zhou Zhou, I beg you, let Wang Ergou go this time." Wang Xue couldn't cry, her eyes were stunned.
When Li Zhouzhou looked at his husband, he was angry and anxious, but he didn't know what to say.
Uncle Wang is pitiful, and everyone in the village knows why he didn't say nothing about it later, because no one cares about it.It’s like this every time. Once Wang Ergou beat Uncle Wang so hard that he couldn’t get out of bed. The villagers said to invite the village chief, but Wang Ergou’s parents scolded him back, saying that our Wang’s business has nothing to do with you. What are you yelling about when a dog beats his own wife?
Uncle Wang who was lying on the bed didn't care too much.
Since then, no one has been able to control it.
"I don't want to pursue it today. In the future, the king and the two dogs will continue to arrange to bite my family Zhou Zhou in the village. What should we do? Since we have to sue the officials, why don't we just settle it once? Sooner or later, we will go to jail."
"Don't talk, don't talk, Er Gou just drank too much and talked nonsense, there is no other meaning."
"That's right, they are brothers, what can happen?"
Wang Xue pleaded, but even Wang Ergou was cowardly and said he would not speak, so Gu Zhaocai nodded reluctantly and said: "If I hear any news about what happened tonight in the village, it will all come from your family, and I will sue Wang. Ergou, sue the Wang family."
That's the end of the matter.
Gu Zhao took Zhou Zhou to leave, and turned back when he thought of something.The two veterans of the Wang family were thinking about Wang Xue, and when they saw Gu Zhao and Li Zhouzhou coming back, they were so frightened that they didn't dare to say anything.
"Where's the plaster?" Gu Zhao asked.
He almost forgot that Zhou Zhou came to Wang's house to find plaster, and now that he has caused a lot of trouble, Zhou Zhou probably won't go to Uncle Wang's house to buy tofu for some time to come.
It must be difficult to do not want Uncle Wang to be caught between the parents-in-law.
Li Zhouzhou remembered, and brought it over from the windowsill of the stove house. Looking at the oil lamp and the moonlight of the Wang family, Gu Zhao could roughly see that there were white watery condensed flocs in the bowl, and he tapped some with his finger and put it in his mouth to taste. taste.
Not at all.
Think about it too, how can it be possible to use industrial gypsum powder for food.
Too busy tonight.
Gu Zhao put down the bowl and said, "No, let's go back." Then he took Zhou Zhou's hand out of the Wang's courtyard, and before he had gone far, he heard the parents of Wang Ergou inside scolding, of course they were scolding Li's family and Wang Xue , Said that Wang Xue disturbed the house spirit, and Wang Ergou's voice.
"They just cursed behind their backs, but they didn't dare to say it on the face. Wang Ergou was afraid of his father." Li Zhouzhou said in a sullen tone.He said that this is the heart of Mr. Kuan, but he is actually worried about Uncle Wang.
"If only I could come over tomorrow."
Gu Zhao knew that Zhou Zhou would blame himself, and said: "Wang Ergou will come back tonight. If he comes back to ask for money, will he scold Uncle Wang? If he opens his mouth for a tael of silver, if Uncle Wang doesn't give it to him, he might beat and scold him, right? ?”
"If you don't come tonight, will Uncle Wang suffer less? It is Wang Ergou's family who really caused Uncle Wang's situation."
If Uncle Wang, who was an abandoned baby in the snow, knew that he would live such a life in more than 30 years, he must have thought that he would be better off freezing to death, and begged the Wang family not to take this life.
"Sir, what you said is true." Li Zhouzhou sighed, "Everyone in the village knows that Uncle Wang is pitiful, but they can't help. I'm busy with farming and I have time to help."
"I really hope Oda can grow up quickly."
Li Zhouzhou put Wang Uncle's hope on Oda.Gu Zhao knew, however, that it was because of Xiao Tian's presence that Uncle Wang was able to bear with it and let him be a cow and a horse for the Wang family to be beaten and scolded by others.
But he didn't say that.
When he got home, the porridge was ready, Li Da saw that no one came back, so he took the pot down first.Seeing the two come back, they asked what happened.Li Zhouzhou said that he went to Uncle Wang's house at the entrance of the village, and happened to meet Wang Ergou.
Li Da frowned, "Wang Ergou bullied you?"
"No, father, my husband is protecting me." Li Zhouzhou said.
Li Da didn't believe it, Gu Zhaoxiao's body was almost the same as Zhou Zhou protecting Gu Zhao.
Li Zhouzhou then said: "Really, dad, I didn't suffer a loss. My husband said he wanted to sue Wang Ergou, what's his name..." It was too long to remember, so he couldn't help but look at him.
"The Dali Civil Law, I lied to scare Wang Ergou." Gu Zhao said.
Li Zhouzhou's eyes widened. If this nonsense is spread, will something happen to the lord?
"Wang Ergou's family will not go out to study indiscriminately. His family is at the entrance of the village, and there is only one family some distance away. Even if they hear the quarrel and dispute, they can't understand what I said." Gu Zhao said.
Li Da looked at Gu Zhao differently, thinking that his brother-in-law was bold and careful.
The family of three served porridge, and Li Zhouzhou chopped sauerkraut before he left, and they would eat in the main room by lighting the oil lamp.
Gu Zhao said while eating: "Actually, it's not a fabrication. Such a thing really happened, but there was no legislation. I went to the prefectural county to take an exam. From what I heard, such things are all decided by the officials."
Yuanshen had encountered it before, but the person who was bitten had stuffed money, and the verdict turned black and white, beat the victim's husband twenty sticks, and fined him.
