"Logically speaking, I'm a woman, so I shouldn't be so shameless and shameless, but I really can't help it."
"My natal family is no longer my natal family since they exchanged my brother's wife for a bride price and married me to a sick man. Even if I am about to starve to death, they will not help me."
"Many people in Zhuangzi are thinking about me. My husband's cousins keep an eye on the land at my house all day long, for fear that I will follow others and take the land away. They said privately that if I want to go away, whether it is my son or the land,
They all have to stay!”
"There are also those immortal elders who always bully me because of their seniority. The aunt of the Zhuangtou family has said more than once that she wants to marry me to her idiot nephew."
"I can't keep this house any longer. I'm like a piece of fat. Everyone wants to come and take a few bites!"
"You are a good person, a wealthy and upright man. You like me, so I risk my skin to beg you!"
"Take me away, just give me food to eat. As long as you don't mind that I am a countryman, I will serve you wholeheartedly. I know that there are many people around you, so just treat me as a kitten and puppy for you to play with."
Just think of it as doing good deeds.”
"Uncle, please!"
"If you stretch out your hand, we two can change our lives!"
"Get up quickly, the ground is cold!" Cao Zhen stepped forward and pulled Widow Liu up, "How big of a deal do I think it is? If you follow me, just follow me. Aren't you just going to have two more mouths?"
Then, he thought about it again and said seriously, "But you have to think about it, I am sixty-five years old, and I can see people buried in the loess."
"If I serve you, I will definitely make you live a long life!" Widow Liu's eyes were filled with tears and full of enthusiasm.
"I dare not say that I will live a hundred years, but I will still be close to you if I live for another ten years." Cao Zhen smiled, and then his face became solemn again, "People pay attention to compatibility. I think you like it. If you are willing to follow me, then I will
I must be worthy of you."
"Girl, I'll give you and your son a life in exchange!"
"Don't dare to say anything else. You will have enough food and clothing in your next life and no one will dare to bully you."
As he said that, Cao Zhen smiled and said, "Girl, you made the right move this time!"
Widow Liu shed tears and lowered her head shyly.
"Come with me tomorrow morning. I don't want these things at home. Let them fight for the house and the land!" Cao Zhen laughed heartily.
"Well, I believe you!" Widow Liu bit her lip and turned around with tears.
"Wait a minute!" Cao Zhen called to her and threw the money bag in his hand over, "Go on!"
"I......."
"It's a betrothal gift!" Cao Zhen laughed.

"Is this...all done?" Zhu Yunxi looked out the window, "Just got a big living person?"
"How about two performances, three concessions and three invitations?" The old man said with a smile, "You girl is so courageous and has a sharp vision. You have recognized that Idiot Cao is a righteous person!"
"Throw a bag of gold out, and even a fool will know he is a fool!" Guo Ying snorted twice, "It's so shameless. Seeing that a person is about to die, he still brings a woman into the house. How will he be settled in the future? Children and grandchildren still have to be shameless.
?”
Just as he was talking, Cao Zhen's proud gong-breaking voice sounded outside.
"Tell me the truth about my difficulties, second sister-in-law, you can understand!"
"No matter how good a bachelor's life is, he will be empty at night!"
"Ah ha, I didn't even sleep there!"
Cao Zhen entered the room with his hands behind his back, his neck raised and a silly smile.
The three people on the kang all rolled their eyes, and Li Jinglong on the ground quickly moved out of the way.
Cao Zhen stepped over Li Jinglong's legs, took off his shoes on the kang, and smiled shamelessly, "What a joke!"
"Do you still want to show some respect? What do you think of the children at home? What do you think of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty?" Guo Ying began to quarrel with him, "Tell me about a country girl, with rough hands and feet. What kind of woman do you idiot Cao have in your family?"
"If I take a girl, what does it have to do with the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty? Children at home? Do they dare to say anything?" Cao Zhen said disdainfully, "Besides, I am proud of country girls. My hands are thick, and my waist is strong and it will hurt people."
Then he smiled at the old man and said, "Your Majesty, do you think so?"
"How do we know where to go? We have never found a country girl!" The old man glared at him and lay down under the quilt, "But you idiot, let's say something ugly up front. Don't be so cool as to turn around and embarrass your mother-in-law."
Forget it." He said, and then said, "What the fourth child said makes sense. As for the whole family, the children dare not say it when they are alive. What if you are dead?"
Cao Zhen leaned against the wall and thought, "I have already thought about it. I will take her back to the capital without entering the house. I will just find a small courtyard. It doesn't have to be too good. It only has seven or eight rooms. I will also buy two facades."
shop."
"Just treat it like the whole foreign house. I'll go and take a look when I have free time. No one can find fault with it. I'll buy a small farm with dozens of acres of land on the outskirts of the capital, and I'll leave the money. Even after I die, my mother and I will have income."
!”
"You're so fucking far-sighted!" Guo Ying snorted.
"Guo Laosi, don't be too excited!" Cao Zhen squinted, "What's the matter? Are you envious? Then if you go looking for it, who will stop you? But you are the youngest and most obscene, who can take a fancy to you?"
"You..." Guo Ying was furious.
"Okay, go to sleep!" the old man yelled, "the two of them are almost 200 years old together, and they are still as vindictive as children."
"I'm younger than him!" Cao Zhen muttered, "He has to die in front of me!"
After saying that, he turned over and lay down happily, with a smile on his face.
The room was silent except for their breathing.
Not long after, Cao Zhen turned over and lay down on the kang again, picked up his shoes and made a chirping sound.
"Who hit my head?" Li Jinglong covered his head and stood up.
"Hey, do you have two shops at the front door of your house? That place is nice. I don't have to worry about renting it out." Inside the room, Cao Zhen's eyes were particularly bright.
Li Jinglong trembled violently, "That's not my home, it's my wife's dowry..."
"Oh, that's still from your family!" Cao Zhen said, turning over and lying down, "Fourth brother, after I return to Beijing, I will set up a few tables. This is also a happy event. When the brothers come, how many courtesy members will you follow?"
"Be a fucking human!" Guo Ying turned over angrily.
"Fourth brother..."
"Are you still sleeping?" the old man yelled, and the room immediately became quiet.
~~~~
"Third aunt, the Liu family's wife is looking for a wild man!"
"Bah, it's so shameless. When a rich man comes to Zhuangzi, she will send him to him without hesitation. Normally, she would hold him tightly and act like a woman."
At the west end of Zhuangzi, in the big tile-roofed house of the old man's house in Zhuangtou, Zhuangtou's wife and a few old ladies with wrinkled faces and mean faces gathered together and murmured.
"Did you see it clearly?" asked Zhuangtou's wife.
"It's true, you've entered someone's courtyard!" an old lady spat, "It's so shameless in the middle of the night!"
"Third Aunt, didn't Liu Yatou sleep next to me in my room just now?" Another old lady said, "Her arms were bulging, and she was tossing and turning like a pancake when there was a clanking sound. Later, she couldn't sleep.
I asked my boy to talk to his son, guess what?"
As she spoke, the old lady's expression became distorted, "Her son said that it was the rich man who gave his mother a bag of gold!"
"Hiss!" The girls gasped, their eyes becoming even more twisted and ferocious.
"The distinguished guest is our Zhuangzi, why should she be the only one to collect the money?"
"She is a widow, what does she need so much money for?"
"It's really a case of being taken advantage of. She's like that, and she can't sell it for that much money."
At this moment, the old man Zhuangtou came in from outside smelling of alcohol. As soon as he came in and saw the formation, he frowned and said angrily, "What are you doing? Why don't you go home and sleep in the middle of the night?"
"The head of the house is so messy..." Zhuangtou's wife came over and started to talk.
The old man's eyes also became greedy, "Is it really gold?"
"That's still false. His son said it himself. I also looked at it. There's a bag!" said an old lady, "Tou Zhuang, this is not her family's business. This money should belong to the whole village. Besides,
Well, she, a widow, did such a shameful thing and ruined the reputation of our village, how can we still tolerate her in this village?"
"Yes, the third sister-in-law is right."
"Maybe she shamelessly got into bed with someone just now. Otherwise, why would they give her so much money?"
"Get rid of this scourge quickly. Isn't the second aunt's nephew single? Send him to Qianzhuang. The vixen can't stay!"
Several women were chattering away, and suddenly another one ran in from outside and whispered, "The Liu family's wife is back!"
~~~
Widow Liu felt something was wrong as soon as she entered the house. Several old ladies were sitting on the kang and sneered at her with ferocious faces, as if they wanted to eat her alive.
"What have you been doing?"
"Nothing done?"
"What's in your arms?"
Widow Liu said nothing, looked at everyone, and turned around sharply.
But he didn't expect to be hugged directly by the person who came out from behind.
Zhuangtou's wife stepped forward and pulled her hard in her arms.
With a clang, the money bag fell to the ground, revealing yellow gold.
For a moment, there was silence in the room.
"This is mine..." Widow Liu shouted.
But some old ladies blocked her mouth like madmen and dragged her out.
After dragging her into the yard, she was shocked to find that at some point, the village head and his son were driving a cart out of the stable.
She got it!
These people want to get her away.
"Stone!" Widow Liu bit the hand covering her mouth and shouted loudly, "Go and call Mr. Cao!"
"Stone, go cry...wuwu..."
~~
Bang, the courtyard door was knocked open by a half-grown child.
The guard in the dark suddenly drew out his sword and opened his crossbow.
On the kang, Guo Ying and Cao Zhen instantly turned over and reached under the bed to find short blades.
"Someone is copying this guy!"
Li Jinglong also woke up instantly and sat up on the ground.
"Mr. Cao, they... they arrested my mother and took the gold you gave..."
Cao Zhen turned his head and looked at the old man.
"Go ahead, don't kill anyone!" The old man waved his hands and turned over again, "These are bullshit!"
"Hey!" Cao Zhen laughed twice and jumped off the kang.
"Ouch..." Li Jinglong screamed in the dark room.
"Cao, why are you always in the way? Are you fucking blind?" Cao Zhen cursed and went out without looking back, shouting outside, "My horse, my sword."
