Chapter 739: Really talking nonsense
After Mrs. Li finished speaking, she saw that Zhou Shun still had no reaction and closed his eyes to rest, knowing that the child's father was still secretly competing with himself at this time.
She was going to get scolded if she continued talking, so she simply started a different conversation and asked Gu Erzhu and his wife, who had taken their daughter out early in the morning, why she hadn't come back yet?
"Brother Gu's relationship with the Zhao family is different from ours. He has been hanging out with Zhao Lao San for a long time. Zhao Lao San often went to the Zhao family before he was a middle school student.
Later, when the Zhao family became prosperous, Zhao Laosan went to Fucheng again. It was probably because of his partiality that I wanted him to please the Zhao family or something, so he and Zhao Laosan didn't have much contact.
Of course, it was Brother Gu who was high-spirited. The brothers who grew up together were so different that he didn't even inform Zhao Laosan that his eldest son was getting married.
As for Zhao Lao San, he was also annoyed when Zhao Lao Er said that Erlang was getting married. He said that Gu Er Ge did not regard him as a brother, and then the two of them got into trouble.
Until Brother Gu separated his family and moved out, there were rumors that Brother Gu bought a house with his daughter-in-law and moved out, so Zhao Lao Er reported the news to Zhao Lao San.
At that time, Zhao Lao San happened to be unable to leave Zhending Mansion and couldn't make it back, so he wrote back and asked Zhao Lao Er to help him go to the greenhouse banquet.
Later, Brother Gu and I accompanied our children to Fucheng to catch the exam. Zhao Laosan came to visit us this time, and the two of them reconciled like children again.
After that, I don’t need to tell you, you all know that Zhao Laosan sent someone to our Sanya Yizi Workshop to buy goods, and the two families got closer.
The four brothers of the Zhao family have all left the favor, and the elder brother Zhao invited him that day. The second brother Gu wanted to take his wife and children to the Zhao mansion today.
Firstly, the two elders of the Zhao family are in the capital, so it would be a bad idea not to go and say hello; secondly, the second brother Gu also wants to take advantage of this juncture to separate us from the Zhao family. ”
What does it mean?
And left it alone!
Li Shi frowned unexpectedly.
Zhou Shushun knew as soon as he saw his wife's face that she didn't understand yet. Thinking that nowadays, every move involved his elder brother, he had the patience to explain.
"Sanya is Sanya, she is the Gu family's daughter-in-law. Now we live in the eldest brother's house. When we go out and say something, we mean eldest brother and sister-in-law in the eyes of outsiders.
This is why I asked you to just listen and speak less. I don’t understand their way of being an official. There is nothing wrong with watching more and speaking less outside.
In the past, every time I went back to Fucheng to see Sanya, not to mention the master of the Gao Mansion, all the managers in their family had their own problems. The managers looked harmonious among themselves, but it was actually fake.
Even though Mrs. Gao and the eldest wife are direct biological mothers-in-law and daughter-in-law, their dowry managers are all different, let alone big shots like the eldest brother.
Now, the eldest brother is no longer an official, but the emperor—" Zhou Shun wondered if there would be "nails" outside the study as his family's Sanya said.
He then imitated the way Third Master Qi raised his hands and faced the north when he mentioned that day and bowed, "The emperor is so kind and allows my eldest brother to live here, so many people may be jealous.
It’s just jealousy, my eldest brother has told me a long time ago that even the third uncle knows that the fate of our old Zhou family belongs to the emperor. If the emperor hadn’t secretly helped us, we, Qinghe Zhou, would have been exiled.
That's why we Sanya said that if Sister Hui were not the daughter of her uncle Qi, no matter how high her family background, no matter how much dowry she had, and no matter how nice the girl's family, she would help her elder brother stop this marriage.
In Sanya's eyes, it's not a matter of not being in the right family. Sanya is worried that someone has ulterior motives and wants to win over the eldest brother through our family and harm the emperor's family.
Sanya said, Dad, I don’t understand the truth. I only know that a person should repay kindness. The lives of my master and my uncle were saved by the Emperor and the Queen Mother. Even our Qinghe Zhou and Yangzhou Zhou were able to escape the disaster, and even I was protected by Master and grew up. All this is the kindness of the Queen Mother and the Emperor.
I have forgotten that I am not worthy of such a great kindness. I don’t care whether others say that His Highness the Crown Prince is good or not. I only know that whoever the Prince likes will be my benefactor.
When the day comes that my benefactor is of use to me, I will risk my life to repay the kindness owed to my master and uncle, and to repay the great benefactor of our old Zhou family.
When I went out this time, I kept wondering if there was someone with ill intentions who knew about our incompetence and approached us to try to win over my eldest brother.
After all, the eldest brother is no longer an official, but brother Qi is still an official. Is there any way for outsiders to take advantage of our marriage? ”
Gu Erzhu said, seeing that Mrs. Li wanted to answer the conversation, he quickly patted his wife for fear that she would not be able to speak, "I don't understand. What we can do is not to hold back our elder brother.
Look how shrewd Gu's second brother is. Since our family had no intention of getting married to the Zhao family, and now he is here again, he will not let outsiders think that Boss Zhao and his eldest brother are the same.
That's why he took advantage of the engagement moment, and when we were too busy to leave, he took his second sister-in-law and the child to the Zhao Mansion to meet the Zhao family.
They probably haven't come back very soon. They haven't seen each other for so many years. They are chattering, talking, and saying something. They can't even think of coming back until dark.
The couple in the Zhao family who can produce human sperm like Mr. Zhao and Mr. Zhao, how bad their brains are, must be unable to leave even if they want to. ”
Seeing Zhou Shushun smile as he spoke, Mrs. Li immediately breathed a sigh of relief, "But no, since we Sanya came back, everyone loves to interact with us.
Sister, I'm talking about Sanya's mother-in-law. She said that since Sanya came in, Mrs. Chengxian knew her as a country peasant woman and treated her like a sister.
Mrs. Chengxian used to have such high arrogance. Who among us in Qingyang County doesn’t know that even the honorable wife of the county and Mrs. Chengxian were not given face? I was so scared that I even avoided Mrs. Chengxian! ”
Zhou Shushun was stunned when he heard this, thinking that if there were nails outside, would his wife's words deceive Mr. Cheng County?
"And Mr. Huang, the county lieutenant, looks so kind now. Who knows that Lin Xiucai used to give Yin Ziyin, and his beloved concubine also got involved."
Do you want to stop?
"There is also the county magistrate, who is a loser. Fortunately, he is an official sent by the imperial court. After so many years, he still can't fight against Mr. Huang who is not a landowner..."
After Zhou Shun hesitated for a moment, he heard his wife making a fuss and despising the county magistrate. She was so courageous that even her parents and officials dared to talk nonsense!
"...As if I don't understand, he and his wife still want to win over our young couple, and they don't even know what kind of brains our third uncle has, how can he be tricked?"
Ouch, this is incredible, why did I suddenly talk about my third uncle! Zhou Shun was so frightened that he couldn't think too much and hurriedly answered, "No, those people are just messing around.
The third uncle is a disciple taught by my uncle and my eldest brother. My eldest uncle and eldest brother dislike being an official because they don't pay attention to serious matters and are always thinking about things.
The third uncle said that when he was an official, he did not make decisions for the people. He only thought about his own interests and read saints' books in vain. He was a disgrace to the emperor and sorry to the common people.
What do we Sanya say? If you don't make decisions for the people as an official, why don't you go home? ”
"Selling sweet potatoes!"
