Chapter 177: Meeting on a narrow road

Mujia Village, at the door of Meijia.

The four-person carries a sedan chair with two drummers in front, and a group of six people. This team hires three hundred people for one time, which was specially invited by Mei Tongsheng from the town.

"The bride is here!"

"Oh, come and see the bride!"

With the urchin's play, the sound of firecrackers started to crackle.

The villagers who came to have a drink all came to the yard to watch the bride fall into the sedan chair.

"Tsk tsk! This Master Mei has really changed his nature. He is willing to spend this money in vain? When he married the first one, he was not willing to use a sedan chair!" an old lady said astonished.

People in the countryside live a rough life and pay attention to the benefits. Even if they do weddings at home, they can pick up their brides by borrowing a carriage or a donkey carriage. How many people are willing to spend money to hire a sedan chair?

Ordinary people are reluctant to let go. Mei Tongsheng is always stingy, so he should naturally be reluctant to let go. This time it is strange.

It’s not that Mei Tong’s temperament changed drastically, Mei Tong’s heart also felt aching when she paid for it. She just thought about Li Huaihua, so she couldn’t bear it and threw it behind her.

Speaking of which, Mei Tong has been away from having his wife for several years and has been a widower for several years. However, before, he focused all his attention on his children's and grandchildren's studies, and did not feel lonely. This time he was sick and bedridden, but he was excited.

The son is an idea, the grandson is cold-hearted, and the daughter-in-law only has a pair of children in her eyes. Mei Tongsheng thought of her miserable future and her heart was touched, so she was the year of reuniting.

Although Li Huaihua is a second-married woman, she is here at the age of 18. She is a beautiful and beautiful woman. Mei Tongsheng saw her twice, and she felt a little pity while being satisfied.

Mei Tongsheng didn't make face for himself, but Li Huaihua. Let the villagers see that the Mei family is serious about this marriage; it also lets the son and daughter-in-law, who have always been very proud, not lose respect because Li Huaihua is young.

When I arrived at the wedding hall and arrived at the stage of the wedding hall, an accident happened.

This marriage requires worshiping heaven and earth, but there is one more thing in this joy hall, that is, the tablet of Mei Tong’s deceased original wife.

The villagers waiting to see the house were talking, and they really didn't understand how to alarm the deceased. They all looked at Mei Xiucai, wondering if he was holding on to his big move here. But seeing Du's warmth and calmness just now, Mei Xiucai was polite to deal with it occasionally, and did not want to object to stepmother-in-law and stepmother's intention to enter the door was really strange.

Mei Tongsheng also looked at his son, his face looking very ugly.

The land passed down by his ancestors was sold by his son for betting. What did he say? Now he only spent a few taels of silver to get a house in the house. If his son stopped him, he would be annoyed.

Mei Xiucai said softly: "Dad, etiquette, laws and regulations have their own rules. Those who come in the door must hold the ceremony in front of the original position."

Mei Tong had also heard this rule. Those who came in the door had to hold the concubine's etiquette in front of the original wife. This is what the etiquette said in terms of etiquette, "There is a difference between legitimate and illegitimate". Even if they are all wives, the original wife is the legitimate legitimate. She was a little embarrassed and whispered to the bride.

Li Huaihua was already nervous. She was a farmer's daughter. Now that she entered the Mei family, a scholarly family, which is a "high marriage". There are many rules and regulations. So she followed Mei Tongsheng's instructions and worshiped the tablet of the frontman.

In the eyes of the villagers, they did not think that the scholars had many rules, but instead regarded it as Mei Xiucai's stepmother's prestige, and was regarded as watching the excitement.

Mei Duo stood behind the crowd and thought that Mei Xiucai would continue to make things difficult for Li Huaihua. She couldn't help but worry. Unexpectedly, there was nothing else and just passed by safely.

The villagers who were waiting to watch the fun also felt that "thunder loudly and raindrops" were a bit indifferent.

When the meal came, the food and food came up. There were four cold dishes, four small stir-fry, four large bowls, and four dishes of pasta and order rice. It looked very decent, but in the end, there were few meat and vegetables and many green vegetables, which was not that affordable.

However, the villagers knew Mei Tongsheng's style, and they didn't think about big fish and meat before coming, so they were not disappointed. However, the parents of the students who were "invited" must have a heart-warming complaint that they could buy several kilograms of pork for fifty cents, but it would be nice to get a piece of meat on the mat with little water.

Xiji Town, Baiwei Xiang Food Shop.

When I arrived in the town and when I was having dinner, Gui Chongyang took Li He to Baiwei Xiang Food Shop first.

Before, Gui Qiu was not fixed when he was in three shops. Others often had to go to several shops to ask him. Later, he set rules: one for one, four, seven for one, two, five, eight for one, three, six, nine for one, and ten for ten.

Today is the first day of October, Gui Chongyang went directly to Baiweixiang next to the pier. Gui Qiu took the turn here today.

Li He is similar to Gui Qiu's age, and he lives in front and back yards, so he naturally knows him. However, the Gui family was avoided by the villagers back then, and Li He was not lively, so the two teenagers had no contact.

Seeing that Gui Chongyang was carrying Li He, Gui Qiu was surprised, but he didn't show any signs of it and directly gave the two to the private room on the second floor.

"I have something to discuss with Uncle Wu. It happened that the school was off today." With Li He here, Gui Chongyang couldn't talk about the prescription, so he said vaguely.

Whether it is a village school, a town private school, or a county Shangguan school, it is all "Wangshuo Xiumu". Thinking of this, Gui Chongyang remembered Mei Sheng from the county school, and it should be Xiumu today, but he did not hear of the Mei family's "little Sanyuan" returning to Mujia Village.

It's fine, but today is the day when Mei Sheng's step-grandmother comes in, so she doesn't go back. It seems that the Mei family is not just a uncle and nephew, but also a relationship between grandparents and grandchildren is not much better.

Gui Qiu was the most clever. After listening to Gui Chongyang's words, he glanced at Li He, and did not ask. He asked the friend to prepare some vegetarian dishes. He asked Li He again: "What do you like to eat? Since you are here, don't ask for the heretics. Our family is better. There are some braised dishes, including pork head meat and braised eggs. Now we have braised chicken legs!"

Gui Qiu has experienced it, and she smiles three times when she sees people, and her words are warm; but Li He has never received such enthusiasm, his head is about to hang onto the table, his ears are red, and he murmured.

Gui Qiu has only arrived in the town this year. She was also in Mujia Village before. Naturally, she had heard the gossip of the second boy of the Li family "sissy" and "second chair". She just didn't deal with her and didn't pay attention to it. Now she is watching and knowing that the villagers are not gossiping. Li He's behavior is really too much like a big girl.

Gui Chongyang was afraid that Li He would be embarrassed and said, "Everyone said that Master Zhou's braised pork is a masterpiece. Last time my cousin came here, I like to eat pig tongues the most. I can try it for Brother Li. I can cut a plate of that and I can add two more chicken legs."

Guiqiu nodded and said ok, and went to the door and told the friend to go.

When the braised meat and vegetarian dishes came up, Li He was very shy of eating, but the chopsticks stretched out two more chopsticks on the pig's tongue, which obviously made him feel right.

Seeing this, Gui Chongyang praised himself in his heart.

No matter what the Li family is, Li He is indeed not a bad person. Gui Chongyang also understands the correct way to deal with Li He, that is, not treating him as a neighbor's little brother, but as a neighbor's little sister, and everything will be fine.

After lunch, the three of them left Baiweixiang and went to Guiwu's house.

A servant opened the door and saw that the two nephews and young masters came. They were not outsiders, so he went in directly. Although Li He was a man of a face-to-face, he might have been brought to his house by his two nephews, so naturally he was no longer an outsider.

Sure enough, when Gui Wu saw his two nephews coming, he smiled on his face, but when he saw Li He, his smile calmed down.

When the Gui family's old house reopened, Gui Wuchang was there and met the Li family next door, so he naturally recognized Li He.

Li He followed the Gui brothers and did not dare to look up. He did not see Gui Wu's strangeness, but Gui Chongyang and Gui Qiu saw it.

Gui Chongyang's heart moved and said, "Uncle Wu, let's talk in our study."

At this moment, Gui Wu's face had turned around and nodded, "Okay, go to the study to have tea and talk!" After that, he ordered the servant, "Go and tell grandma, your second brother Qiu and Brother Chongyang are here, and he also brought the brother of the Li family from his hometown neighbor, and asked your grandma to pack up some fruits and send them to the study."

The servant responded and went to pass the message without mentioning it.

Gui Qiu was by her side, and she just felt strange.

There is a difference between elders and younger people. Isn’t it the brothers who took Li He to see the elder Jiang first? Every time they came over at Chongyang, they also went to see Jiang first. Why is this different?

This time, there is a Li He.

Gui Qiu's eyes fell on Li He, but he couldn't figure out what Li He had to be afraid of and avoid.

If there is a difference between men and women, Li He is only fourteen years old and is not yet a child, so how can he pay so much attention? Besides, if Li He is really a man and is not easy to meet, why would he ask Jiang to come out to give fruit?

Gui Qiu couldn't figure it out, so she threw it aside.

Gui Chongyang understood that Gui Wu's arrangement was not to let Jiang avoid Li He, but to have people who need to avoid being taboo in the room and cannot meet Li He, so he arranged everyone to speak in the study.

Gui Chongyang took a look at the room.
