Chapter 125: The supporter is here (monthly ticket)

The Jiang sisters came with bad intentions, but before they could meet Gui Wu, they were beaten back by Jiang.

Sister Jiang was full of shame and annoyed, and carefully peeked at her husband. Her third brother-in-law's face turned pale. The only property in the family was his wife's dowry. Not many people knew about this. Now that it is revealed, what else does others think of him, then he is just a soft-hearted person?

Sister Jiang's face was not good either. She looked at Gui Wu in shock and doubt, but she was guilty.

How could the fourth sister know so clearly about what happened back then? Is it Gui Wu said?

Sister Jiang was guilty of course not borrowing the 200 taels of silver that her parents had not paid back, but the fact that her two brothers made a mistake and got moldy rice and flour and took on a big order.

At that time, the shop at my elder brother-in-law's house encountered a "crisis". Sister Jiang went back to her parents' house to borrow money and took out her own dowry to make up the number, so she barely revitalized the shop.

Because of this, when the eldest brother-in-law and his parents were separated, it was difficult to divide the shop, so they distributed the grain and oil shop to their eldest son, daughter-in-law, and other sons allocated some capital to make a living by themselves.

It is said that "no coincidence can be made", but there are many "coincidences" and there will naturally be tricky things.

Sister Jiang and her brother-in-law did something behind their backs, so they didn't have to split the shop with their brothers. They just kept this matter tightly, but the geese left traces. Now that Jiang mentioned it, they just thought that Gui Wu had investigated the matter and was alert.

The eldest brother-in-law still looked at the shop, then looked at Gui Wu and said, "No wonder Lao Wu is so happy with 'Reizong'. It seems that he has made a lot of money."

Gui Wutan smiled and said, "Brother-in-law is joking. Who doesn't know that the account room in the teahouse was the cousin of the eldest brother-in-law? Is it that my brother-in-law wants to check the old accounts?"

My eldest brother-in-law's expression was stiff, "When the water was clear, there would be no fish." How many accountants in the world can withstand the investigation?

This is also something he didn't understand before. When Gui Wu was still managing the teahouse, several sons-in-law were afraid that he would eat alone, so they all bought and put people in it. They never saw anything wrong with Gui Wu.

But if you want to say that these shops are all given by Mr. Jiang and Mrs. Jiang privately, the eldest brother-in-law doesn’t believe it either.

If Gui Wu was still "Jiang Wu", the old couple would be confused and loose, after all, they would raise their son-in-law. After all, they were raised in their teens, which was different from other son-in-laws. But now Gui Wu has "returned to the clan". Even if the old couple wanted to provide supplements to their daughter, they would write it directly under the name of Jiang as a dowry. Just like when Jiang Sanjie was back then, it would be a guarantee for their daughter in the future.

Before my elder brother-in-law could speak, someone said, "What are you looking for?"

The crowds of people watching the fun dispersed and a group of people walked in.

Compared with the angry affair between the Jiang sisters and brother-in-law, these people are much more calm and composed.

The person in the head was in his fifties, with a burly and tall body, with a big bald head, a white beard, and restrained eyes. He was wearing short clothes, but he was fine silk and did not look vulgar. He hung a string of nanmu Buddhist beads with a size of longan eyes on his neck, and held a pair of eighteen-sub-branched bracelets in his hand.

The old man followed two people, one with an abacus hanging around his waist and a ring on his hands, wishing his chin was facing the sky; a scholar was dressed in a long gown that was not old, with a gentle and elegant expression.

Behind the three, there were about a dozen people, all of whom looked respectful, and only one of them was the one who looked familiar with Gui Chongyang, whom he had met before.

Gui Chongyang recognized that the person who had the abacus was Mr. Jiang, and he couldn't help but be curious about the identity of the old man. Looking at Mr. Jiang and the old scholar, he seemed to be respected by the middle man.

"It's Mr. Yuan!" Du Qi took a little excitement and whispered, pulling Gui Chongyang.

You can tell by just looking at the temperament of your clothes. The old Ru should be the teacher of Gui Wu and Zhong Xiaoli. If you look closely at the position of Zhong Xiaoli, you will be really behind the old Ru.

There were also a few young and strong men with a protruding temple following behind the old man who beat him up. Even behind Mr. Jiang, he was not alone, but brought a few servants carrying bamboo baskets.

The eldest brother-in-law's face was pale and his eyes looked at Mr. Jiang with a little begging.

Mr. Jiang snorted lightly, turned his head, and his eyes fell on his second brother-in-law and third brother-in-law.

My second brother-in-law is similar to that of Jiang Erjie, but she doesn’t seem to have any responsibility. She droops her head and hides her body behind her wife.

My third brother-in-law seems calm here, not as cowardly as my second brother-in-law, but her forehead is sweating.

Mr. Jiang shook his head. He was a debtor, but he was blind. He chose these son-in-law, and they were all things that were not allowed to be on the table.

"What to check?" The old man who beat the short smiled and looked around, his eyes fell on Gui Wu, and he spoke.

It turned out that he was the one who scared his elder brother-in-law just now.

My eldest brother-in-law's face was gone, his knees were weak, and he almost couldn't stand steadily.

"Sir, Dad, Uncle Tie, why did you guys alarm?" Gui Wushang did not answer and went up to see them one by one.

The old scholar touched his beard and smiled, "If you don't send a post, I will definitely come here without any invitation!"

Zhong Xiaoli, behind the old ruler, smiled and nodded at Jiang Wu. A young man with a similar appearance next to him squeezed his eyes at Gui Wu, looking quite familiar.

Mr. Jiang treated several son-in-law equally and snorted Gui Wu back.

Uncle Tie stretched out his big hand like a banana fan and patted Gui Wu on the shoulder and said, "You have set up a font today. We old people will naturally support you. Otherwise, you will dare to come to check your accounts, not to lose face from our Tie family! You must know that you are not just the fifth brother of the Gui family in the Jiang family, but also the 'five master' of our Tie family!"

After Uncle Tie finished speaking, the strong men following him also stepped forward, slapped each of them, either calling "Lao Wu" or "Fifth Brother".

Gui Wu smiled bitterly, but did not refute Uncle Tie's words, saying, "I'm sorry, Uncle Tie and my brothers. The knife is ready. Today, the brothers will have some delicious dishes."

The onlookers were all silent, but the ignorant people were fearless in the Gui family.

When Grandpa Gui Er is not here, the second grandmother Gui must come forward because there are men in front of him. This time, he did not call Yang and Mei, but instead greeted Gui Chun, Gui Qiu, and Gui Chongyang to follow him forward.

"Hello, in-laws." Grandma Gui said politely to Mr. Jiang first.

Although Mr. Jiang did not give a good look to his son-in-law, he still greeted Mrs. Gui, "It's good for my mother-in-law. Why didn't my in-laws come on a happy day?"

"The old man is a quiet person. If he doesn't like lively, he won't come to cause trouble for his children. Over the years, his in-laws and sister-in-law have been taking care of Lao Wu, and our whole family is grateful. In the future, the children will be young and do not take any trouble. They will have to take care of their parents for their big and small things." said Grandma Gui Er.

These words are both simple and unceremonious.

Mr. Jiang felt it was memorable that his daughter belonged to him and his son-in-law had been raised for more than ten years. It was unreasonable that once he "returned to his hometown", he became a member of the Gui family and had nothing to do with the Jiang family.

"Don't worry, my mother-in-law, I can't protect you anywhere else, but I'm not afraid in the town." At the end, Mr. Jiang straightened his waist and said, "There are two monks and Mr. Yuan, and there are no one who can't bully Lao Wu!"

Although Mr. Yuan is Gui Wu's teacher, Mr. Gui has never seen him before. However, with Gui Wu's previous title, he would not mess up the two of them. He had to say politely to the two: "These old fives are in the town, and Mr. Duolai and his uncle Tie are taking care of him."

Mr. Yuan and Monk Tie are one elegant and the other generous, but for the sake of Gui Wushou, they are also a little polite to the village woman, the second grandma Gui.

When a few nephews came forward, Mr. Gui Wu was not allowed to introduce them to several elders.

Gui Qiu was brought to the town by Gui Wu. Everyone has seen him before, and he has met several elders behind Gui Wu, and he is respectful; Gui Chun is honest and dull, so he is a little restrained; when he arrives at Gui Chongyang, he is much more calm and comfortable.

Mr. Jiang had seen Gui Chongyang and remembered that the little trouble at home was caused by Gui Chongyang, so he could not help but roll his eyes.

However, Gui Chongyang saw Mr. Jiang’s “rogue” side, but was not afraid. Instead, he said with a little affectionate expression: “Hello Grandpa Jiang.”

Mr. Jiang twitched the corners of his mouth and said nothing mean in front of everyone.

The Tie Monk looked at Gui Chun, then Gui Chongyang, shook his head and said, "It's not as strong as Xiao Qiuzi, a good young man, what kind of person he looks like when he cut a chicken in white!"

Gui Chun was at a loss when he was said, while Gui Chongyang said openly: "We also envy the strength of our uncles. If you have the chance in the future, you have to ask Grandpa Tie to give more advice."

Monk Tie was stunned at first, then laughed "haha" and said while touching his bald head, "Okay, okay, my old Tie is also a grandpa! The baby is sweeter than your fifth uncle. Good boy, take it to play!" After that, he stuffed the eighteen bracelet in his hand to Gui Chongyang.

This string of eighteen-sized patina is full of patina. Not to mention the value, just say that you often play with it at this time is a good idea.

How can Gui Chongyang be easy to harvest? You must watch Gui Wu for help.

Gui Wu knew the temper of Monk Tie and nodded to Gui Chongyang.

Gui Chongyang was helpless and then said, "The elder dared not refuse, I am ashamed of accepting it!"

The iron monk said "haha" twice and said to Mr. Yuan: "This kid is not big, but he speaks very well. He is the same as your disciples!"

Mr. Yuan looked at Gui Chongyang and saw that he didn't have any silk on his body. He touched his beard and said, "I heard that you read the Five Classics thoroughly and have done the Shiwen. I turned around and took a few articles. Even if I live in the hometown, I should not be lazy in my knowledge."

Gui Chongyang said that Mei Xiaoba and Du Qi "study is like sailing against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat." This is what Mr. Yuan means now.

Having read the "Five Classics" thoroughly and did not want to go further, he was stuck in the village school. Mr. Yuan obviously had objections to Gui Chongyang's choice.

No matter what Mr. Yuan’s knowledge is, he is Gui Wu’s teacher after all, and his generosity and magnanimity to Du Qi are worthy of respect.

If there was no accident, Gui Chongyang would also enter the Yuan Family Academy after he left Xiaoxiao, so Gui Chongyang was also very respectful: "Yes, I'm sorry, I'm worried!"

Seeing that he was obedient, Mr. Yuan nodded with relief.

Seeing that everyone had finished greetings, Du Qi came up and brought some little anticipation and said, "Mr. Yuan!"

Mr. Yuan looked over without hesitation. He obviously remembered Du Qi and nodded slightly: "It's Du Qi, can the county school keep up with the homework? Have you started to do Shiwen?"

Du Qi's eyes lit up and darkened, and he said a little uneasy: "Sir, the student is no longer in the county school. Now he is in a village school, and he is a classmate with Chongyang."

Mr. Yuan was slightly stunned and then said, "It's good to go back to settle down. Before going to the county school, it was suspected that the seedlings could be used to help grow. When you want to learn the scriptures, you will come to the school."

Du Qida Mantou's face shone brightly, and he nodded quickly and said, "Okay, students must go!"

The auspicious time has arrived. In addition to the firecrackers prepared before, the servants brought by Mr. Jiang carried baskets, one basket full of firecrackers, and the other basket full of new copper coins.

"Crackling", firecrackers roared, and handfuls of copper coins were spilled out.
