The next day, they set off early from Suhou Mansion. After walking for half a day, Su Huayue and his party found the Peach Blossom Village that the innkeeper pointed out that day in the suburbs of Beijing.

Taohua Village is still relatively remote in the suburbs of Beijing. Although the village is rich in peach blossom wine, which is famous within a radius of ten miles, there are not many people in the suburbs of Beijing who need wine. In addition, Daliang Kingdom has experienced several years of border wars and turmoil, and its national strength is not strong.

So Taohua Village is still very barren now.

In the previous life, after Meng Niang followed Su Huayue to make a fortune in business, she also sold Taohua Village's peach blossom wine to the capital. Because of the good sales, Taohua Village eventually became richer.

But these are just what Mengniang told Su Huayue verbally. When she met Mengniang in her previous life, Su Huayue was already in dire straits in Prince Ming's palace, and she didn't have time to actually follow Mengniang to Peach Blossom Village.

At first glance, Taohua Village is full of flat, low house yards, with trees planted in each yard. The villagers are busy doing something in front of their houses, or washing clothes in front of a stream that runs through Taohua Village.

When they saw Su Huayue and her group walking into their small village, they all looked at her curiously. Some of the people working in the fields even forgot what they were doing.

Women with such a mark, such gracefulness, and such a young lady's appearance are rare in their village.

In addition to the crowds on Su Huayue's side, the other end of the village was surrounded by many people pointing fingers at a farce.

"There is such a thing. You have been raised since childhood. How can you be considered half a daughter? How can you do this?"

"Did Mrs. Wang really do it? Could it be Mengniang herself..."

"How can that be possible? Don't you all know who Meng Niang is? It's not Meng Niang who gets the money to send to the Wang family."

"I don't think Meng Niang is honest. Otherwise, why would no one in the Hu family like her? They only like her."

"..."

What everyone was surrounded by was a small, low courtyard. A man with a bald head and a grin full of yellow buck teeth was in the courtyard. Next to him, there were two boxes with two big red flowers tied on them.

Inside is a large red envelope filled with plain clothes.

The man was dressed in red clothes and trousers. According to the customs of the Liang Kingdom, he was here to propose marriage to someone in the courtyard.

And in the courtyard, besides the man, there was also a very plump woman kneeling, and a man and a woman stood opposite an old man who was looking at each other meanly.

The woman kept kneeling and kowtowed to the two old men: "Father, mother, for the sake of Mengniang serving your two elders for so many years, please don't marry Mengniang to Hu Ergou!"

Mrs. Wang said: "Meng Niang, if I'm not talking about you, what's wrong with these two bastards? You're not young anymore. I haven't heard from Ying'er for seven or eight years. I don't want to delay you!"

The woman said: "Mom, Meng Niang doesn't care! Meng Niang is a member of the Wang family when she is born, and a ghost of the Wang family when she dies. Brother Ying just has no news now, and he will come back one day. Meng Niang also promised Brother Ying,

I have to take care of you two elders all the time, how can Meng Niang break her promise!"

Mrs. Wang said: "We two always need someone to take care of you, but your life-long events are more important! Meng Niang, listen to my words, that two dogs are a good place to go!"

As soon as Mrs. Wang finished her voice, Mr. Wang, who was leaning on crutches beside her, tapped the crutches hard and said: "What do you mean by waiting for Ying'er! Old man, I think you just want to stay in the Wang family and eat and drink for free! You spent last night with Er Gouzi

Now that we are married, it is your blessing that Ergouzi wants you for such an unclean woman! Not to mention that I don’t know what Ying’er’s situation is like on the front line, even if he comes back, I won’t let him want you!

"

After saying this, he gestured to Hu Ergou beside him.

Hu Ergou grinned, showing his big yellow buck teeth, and with an unknown smell on his body, he rushed over to hug the woman.

The woman screamed and ran away, but Hu Ergou refused at all: "Daughter-in-law, you are my wife!"

Mrs. Wang and Mr. Wang looked at Mengniang's reluctance and did not say a word. They even secretly thought about how to capture Mengniang so that they could get the gifts from the Hu family.

That’s a full fifty taels of silver! There are also two boxes of gifts, large and small!

That is to say, Meng Niang was lucky enough to be attracted by a silly Ergou who had no interest in women even though he was in his forties. It happened that a fortune teller told the Hu family that Meng Niang had a good face and was a man of great ability.

The family spent a lot of money to ask the Wang family to marry Meng Niang. If it were other girls in their village, the current situation is turbulent, and a gift of five taels would be worth the money.

And if it weren't for the Hu family's willingness, Meng Niang was so diligent, and because of Meng Niang's presence every day, the old couple would rarely have to interfere in the work at home or in the fields. In the past ten years, they would have been able to

The two elders took good care of her, and the half-money they spent to buy her was not in vain.

It’s just that this dream girl has a good face.

Her eyes are her eyes and her nose is her nose. It's true that she is somewhat attractive. I used to think that she was pretty and a smart child. In addition, Wang Ying in the family will be old enough to marry a wife in two years.

With their family background, they may not be able to find a wife easily.

It was also a busy time for farming, and asking people to help with work would cost money, so I thought of buying Mengniang back first, feeding her and letting her help with farm work, and raising her for a year or two before marrying Wang Ying and reborn.

He's a big fat boy, so they're not at a loss.

Facts have proved that although Meng Niang was only eleven or twelve years old at that time, her hands and feet were as diligent as any girl who had grown hair, and even had more hair than men of the same age. She usually ate less.

But the only drawback was that less than a year after Meng Niang came to their home, Wang Ying went to join the army with a boy from the same village. As a result, Meng Niang and Wang Ying's marriage failed, and they naturally did not have a fat boy to hug them.

I thought I would be able to make money back in just two or three years, but now nearly eight years have passed and there is no news from Wang Ying or the other person at all.

As parents, they were naturally anxious, but there was nothing they could do.

Mengniang also kept telling them that the king would come back, but they kept lying to themselves.

But they have been deceiving themselves for three years, five years, and now eight years. In fact, they are not in a hurry.

Now that people from the Hu family told them that Meng Niang had a good appearance, they even thought, might it be because they bought Meng Niang and killed their son that Wang Ying never returned?

With this idea, and more importantly, the Hu family now wants to give them sky-high gifts, half a drop of money in exchange for fifty taels of silver, which they never dared to think of before!

No matter how nice Mengniang treats them on weekdays, how can she not have fifty taels of silver that they have never seen before?
