Chapter Thirteen Guiwu's Choice and Difficulties
Gui Chongyang was shocked and suspicious. "Uncle Jiang Wu" had already paid attention to pulling Guichun and asked him to go to the teahouse to talk. Guichun refused to move, but "Uncle Jiang Wu" was unhappy: "Why can't you drink a bowl of tea? Or do you look down on me like others?"
When Guichun heard this, she immediately blushed: "I don't have it, nor does she have it. It's us who dragged down the fifth uncle. Everything is fine at home, and grandparents are healthy. Don't worry about the family anymore, just do it well."
"Uncle Jiang Wu" snorted: "I don't look down on you, so what's wrong with coming here to eat a bowl of tea?"
Gui Chun pointed to Gui Chongyang and said, "Uncle Wu, I came with Chongyang."
Uncle Jiang Wu then noticed Gui Chongyang next to him. Looking at the patch and patches, he felt really dazzling. But he naturally had a pair of people and was very sensible. He immediately realized that the clothes were not a teenager. This white and innocent boy was a wealthy young master.
"What is this?" Mr. Jiang Wu asked Gui Chun in confusion.
Gui Chun whispered: "This is the fourth uncle's son Chongyang. The fourth uncle is gone, so I'll send him back to Chongyang."
Master Jiang Wu was stunned. Looking at Gui Chongyang for a while, he nodded and said, "Since he is not an outsider, come and talk together." He still insisted on taking the two into the teahouse.
Gui Chun had no idea and couldn't help but look at Gui Chongyang.
Gui Chongyang was full of doubt and nodded, "Then I'll bother you."
The group of three people entered the teahouse. A teahouse clerk came forward attentively and bowed and said, "Fifth Master."
"Peak the pot of Maojian and serve a few more refreshments." Mr. Jiang casually ordered, and led Gui Chun and Gui Chongyang to the second floor.
Seeing that Gui Chongyang was generous and generous, Gui Chun was full of rudeness, Master Jiang Wu couldn't help but feel angry: "I didn't do it well before, why are you now heretics? If I change my surname, I can't be considered your uncle?"
In front of me, I was really the little cousin mentioned by "dad". When would my little cousin change his surname? Should I be the adopted son, or... the son-in-law?
Gui Chongyang's heart trembled. Could it be that this was also a sin caused by his "dad"?
Gui Chun could no longer sit still, so he hurriedly stood up and said, "My nephew doesn't want to drag down my fifth uncle anymore. Don't worry about my family anymore in the future. Just live your own life. My nephew has grown up. Over the years, Uncle Wu has done enough for his family. Even the waiter is worried about him."
Mr. Jiang Wu's face was better and said, "I didn't jump out of the crack of the stone, why can't I think about my relatives? You're thinking too much, your aunt is not that stingy person."
As I spoke, my friend brought me tea and snacks.
Uncle Jiang Wu then started to ask Gui Chongyang for a question. His attitude was neither lukewarm nor resentment nor much intimacy.
Gui Chun was worried and refused to stay for too long. She hurriedly drank a cup of tea and took Gui Chongyang to say goodbye.
Uncle Jiang Wu looked a little sad, but he didn't keep anyone anymore. He just ordered: "It's okay, if you really encounter something, don't hide it from me." Looking at Gui Chongyang, I remembered something and said: "Don't pass through the village about the transfer of household registration in Chongyang. I will do it at that time to avoid any trouble."
Gui Chun frowned, hesitant, obviously unwilling to cause trouble for Jiang Wu, but he also knew that Village Chief Du was difficult. Village Chief Du had once planned to the Gui family. If the matter of naturalization passed through the village, he still didn't know what he would continue to plan.
Gui Chongyang understood the grievances in the village last night, and naturally knew that village chief Du was the same as his own enemy. "Dad" made a mistake and stole Ding Yin in front of him. But if the Du family had not followed the trouble and stopped the Gui family from selling land, the Gui family would not have been able to make up the 200 taels of silver. You should know the normal price, the minimum fertile land is 400 taels per acre, and the three brothers of Gui village chiefs and three of them had a total of 60 acres of good land. Even if they were in a hurry to sell it with money, they could still be sold for 200 taels. As a result, the Du family intervened and said hello to the yamen, and bought the Gui family's land for 100 taels.
Therefore, after hearing Jiang Wu's words, Gui Chongyang immediately thanked: "At that time, I will be reluctant to trouble Uncle Wu."
Uncle Jiang Wu waved his hand and said, "It's nothing. A friend's eldest brother happened to be in the county yard house, which was just a favor for tea."
Gui Chun still disagreed with the situation. Gui Chongyang pulled Gui Chun away.
After leaving the teahouse, Gui Chun said strangely: "It's not easy for Uncle Five, so you shouldn't be asking for trouble for Uncle Five."
"Why do Brother Chun have other ways to settle down?" Gui Chongyang said.
Gui Chun was silent.
Gui Chongyang said: "That's Uncle Fifth? How did you change the surname Jiang?"
Gui Chun choked and said, "It's all my fault, I have implicated Uncle Wu."
Thirteen years ago, when the "Nine Dings Difficulties" came out, almost everyone in Xigui called for a beating. The adult's attitude naturally affected the children. The following spring, in order to protect his younger brother from being bullied, Guichun was pushed into the river by several older children in the village. It was Chunhan and almost lost his life. He asked for things where he could borrow money, but in the end there was no help, so he had to take it back and wait for death.
Gui Wu was eleven years old at the time. Although his family was in decline, he was favored by private school teachers because of his outstanding qualifications. He tuition fees were reduced and he still studied in private school.
Seeing that the eldest nephew was seriously ill and his sister-in-law couldn't survive anymore, the little Gui Wu stepped forward to take responsibility. He happened to learn that the Jiang family, which opened a teahouse in the town, was about to recruit a family to cheer for her sick little daughter, so he took the initiative to recommend herself.
The son-in-law is most despised by the world. Men with a little promising prospects will not agree to marry into the family. The Jiang family only has four daughters and no children, so they keep their young daughters to marry. Many people who hear the news of the family are idle gangsters, some are concerned about the wealth of the Jiang family, some are concerned about the appearance of the Jiang family. Some are single and lonely men who have no father or mother, and some are difficult relatives behind them, so the Jiang family is picky and choose, and they have never liked the candidates.
When Gui Wu recommended himself, the young boy was three years younger than the Jiang family's daughter. At first, everyone just thought it was a joke, but when he came to the door several times, he also met the Jiang family's daughter in person. Later, the Jiang family's daughter nodded in person. Somehow, he convinced Grandpa Gui Er and Grandma Gui Er to join the Jiang family and became the son-in-law of the Jiang family. Because the Jiang family had four daughters, Mr. Jiang loved Gui Wu very much at that time and regarded him as a son, so he asked his servants to call Gui Wu the "Fifth Young Master", and Gui Wu became Jiang Wu.
A few years later, Jiang was fifty-five years old and the Jiang family was eighteen. The two officially completed the family. Mr. Jiang was kind and did not isolate Jiang Wu to take care of the Gui family occasionally. There was another reason why Gui Chun dared not get close to Gui Wu.
It turned out that Jiang Wu and his wife had been married for eight years and had no son or half of their daughters. The three married daughters of the Jiang family were concerned about their parents' property, for fear of getting cheaper Jiang Wu. They slandered many families in front of Mr. Jiang and his wife, saying that he was not familiar with him and only cared about the Gui family, which made Mr. Jiang dislike the Gui family.
Last year, in order to take care of Gui's family, Jiang Wu found a grocery apprentice for his nephew, and gave his son-in-law a remark to several sons-in-law of the Jiang family. Because he had a lot of money to squeeze Jiang Wu, he said that he had no son, so he thought about giving his property to his nephew, so he arranged for his nephew to go to the town.
Mr. Jiang did not believe it all, but he felt a thorn in his heart. He could not see the Gui family again.
