Through the struggle of farming
Chapter 24 Lu Guozi
After lunch, Lu Jinliu returned to the village. As soon as he entered the village, Lu Jinliu felt that the atmosphere was not right.
Thinking of what he had done recently, Lu Jinliu frowned and planned to ask Zhou Ju about it.
"Auntie, auntie, are you home?" Lu Jin stayed outside Lu Dashan's house and knocked.
"Brother Niu, what are you looking for with my mother? She's gone out," the two younger brothers from the Lu family came out to answer the door.
"Where did Aunt Zhou go? Why didn't you guys go out to play?" Lu Jinliu was surprised, the two brothers couldn't stay idle.
"My mother didn't let us go out, saying that men shouldn't join in the fun," Lu Pingda pouted dissatisfiedly.
"What excitement?" Lu Jinliu always had a bad feeling.
"I heard that a great fairy came to our village this morning. It seems that your original home has not been going well recently. After asking, I found out that your uncle's horoscope is not compatible with your family. Now you are clamoring to sell him!"
Lu Jinliu's face was sullen. He really overestimated the conscience of the two elders of the Lu family. Although he also had this idea, his original idea was to let them divorce in a legitimate way, and he was ready to spend a sum of money to pay for it. their intentions.But I never expected them to be so cruel!Forget it, fortunately, the matter is still under control, and it also saves him from the next calculation!
Lu Jinliu hurried to the Lu family.
"Brother Xiaoniu, don't worry, Cui Orion and the village head have all gone, and my mother is here too..." Lu Pingyou's voice came from far behind.
"Get out of the way," Lu Jinliu heard Liu Caifen's shrill female voice from a long distance away.
The gate of the Lu family was full of people, Cui Xianghu was confronting the Lu family, and the village chief was also beside him.As for Lu Guozi, he lowered his head and couldn't see clearly the expression. Lu Jinliu heaved a sigh of relief, but fortunately there was still time.
"No, Guozi is my unmarried daughter-in-law now, why do you sell it as soon as you say it!" Cui Xianghu stared at the door, refusing to budge.
"Nonsense, who is your wife?" Liu Hongxia refuted the words aggressively.
"I have paid the dowry, and the fruit is my daughter-in-law."
"You said Guozi is your fiancé! Where's the Gengtie? Where's the deed? What proof do you have," Wang Xiaohuan pointed out the question in an unhurried manner.
Cui Xianghu choked. The deed has to be reported to the Yamen and has to pay a handling fee. Not to mention that people in the village, even ordinary people in the city, will not be so troublesome to get married. Just hire.
But if something goes wrong, the contract is very important when you go to the Yamen to reason. At worst, you have to have a matchmaker and evidence.But this marriage was done in a hurry, before even a matchmaker had time to invite, so Cui Xianghu was hastily accepted two taels of silver.The marriage between the Lu family and the Cui family wished that no one would know about it, so they kept the matter tightly covered.But Cui Xianghu has no relatives to help him, and he has only a half-knowledge about these things. In the end, no outsiders really know about this family.Now the Lu family is cheap!
"That's right, my family is doing business! The neighbors don't care about your misconduct just now, get out of the way!" Liu Caifen triumphantly stretched out her hand to push Cui Xianghu.
Although Cui Xianghu still kept his expression on his face, he was very anxious.It's all because he sold the bear some time ago and rushed to pay off the debt, otherwise he would have been able to buy the fruit.
"Are you still selling this? It's ten taels of silver," the prostitute next to her waited impatiently. If it wasn't for the fact that there was a master in the town who was sick and rushed to find someone to cheer him up and offered him a high price, how could there be such a good price in normal times? .
"Sell, of course," Liu Caifen smiled flatteringly at the matchmaker, and hurriedly beckoned to the man behind to pull Cui Xianghu away.These ten taels plus the original two taels given by Cui Xianghu is 12 taels. Such a good bargain is not available all the time.
"Wait a minute," Lu Jinliu stepped forward.
The Lu family's face changed when they saw Lu Jinliu. This was the only "outsider" who knew about the marriage, and he came to disrupt the situation at any time. He really was a bastard.
"If I remember correctly, Brother Cui accidentally walked into Lu Guozi's house. Didn't the Lu family bring someone to Cui's house and get married?"
As soon as these words came out, the faces of the people present were all ugly.The Lu family obviously remembered that Lu Guozi was the one who took the blame. The prostitute thought that if she sold someone with a bad reputation, it would be bad luck.
"Okay, I'm giving such a high price to please the town master. Why didn't you tell me earlier that your child lost his virginity," the prostitute was furious.
"This, this, the fruits of my family are innocent. We were all at home in broad daylight, and the person surnamed Cui accidentally broke into the door, and he never even got close! Otherwise, my family would only let him I lost two taels of silver." Seeing that the silver in her hand was going to fly, Liu Caifen became very anxious and wise.
The matchmaker obviously hesitated, so Lu Jinliu had no choice but to make a big move.
"Yeah, I entered the wrong door." Lu Jinliu drew a meaningful look at the Lu family, then leaned over and lowered his voice, "By the way, I saw your Jinxiang family in the county today. , flirting with a rich man! Is that man surnamed Meng?"
"What do you want?" The members of the Lu family blushed with anger, they could tell that their surname was Meng, which shows that they were not aimless, they really had to be handled obediently if they wanted to form a good relationship.
"Anyway, it's a relationship with relatives. You might as well sell it to me."
"Okay, ten taels of silver, not a penny less."
"Are you sure they're still willing to buy fruit for ten taels of silver?" Lu Jinliu dismissed it. The matchmaker was just relying on the remoteness of the country and taking chances. She didn't dare to let people know about it.
"Ma'am, you're not from our village, so you probably didn't know that this incident was quite a big one at the time. Not everyone in this town knows about it." Lu Jinliu turned and said to the matchmaker.It's not that he's afraid of the matchmaker, it's just that if the two win from each other, it's the Lu family, and he doesn't want to take advantage of them.
"It seems that your child is not lucky enough to marry the master. I can pay five taels of silver at most," the matchmaker said dissatisfied. The most important thing in their business is honesty. It's okay if they weren't discovered. Say, maybe you have to go to court.
The prostitute felt that it was enough to not care about the Lu family's original concealment, but now that the Lu family is under the control of Lu Jinliu, she dare not do this business. in her hand.
The Lu family was unhappy with the matchmaker for nothing, but wanted to get rid of everything related to Lu Jinliu as soon as possible. It would be best not to contact her in the future.
Lu Jinliu didn't care what the Lu family thought, he just took advantage of the fact that everyone in the village signed the deed of sale and divorce with the two elders of the Lu family.After all, he didn't want to really turn Lu Guozi into a slave. If the Lu family would talk about it again in the future, he still had to sign the divorce letter.The two elders of the Lu family didn't think too much about it. Anyway, they signed the deed of selling themselves, so they were afraid of a divorce letter?
"Where's the hiring bank?" After all the onlookers left, Lu Jinliu reached out to the Lu family.
"What hiring bank?" Liu Caifen was annoyed.
"Brother Cui gave you two taels of silver, that's Guozi's betrothal gift! Now that he belongs to my family, the betrothal gift is naturally mine too." Lu Jinliu was confident.
Liu Caifen was so angry that she couldn't speak, the little bastard insisted on only giving five taels of ten taels of silver, but she even missed the two taels of hiring money.
"No, I'll go talk to Mr. Meng." It's not that Lu Jinliu is short of the money, but he just can't understand how happy the Lu family is.
"Get lost," Liu Caifen slammed Lu Jinliu after she went to the room and took out the money.
Lu Jinliu reached out to catch Lu Guozi indifferently before taking Lu Guozi away. Before leaving the door, he turned around and added, "You look so angry, so beautiful!"
What answered him was a loud slamming door and loud curses from behind the door. Lu Jinliu laughed happily, without the slightest bit of anger that someone scolded should have.
After returning to the broken mud room, Lu Jinliu turned back to look at Lu Guozi worriedly, but he still hadn't figured out how to comfort Lu Guozi.A teenager who was betrayed and abandoned by his family just eighteen years ago, this is an age at which he can be rebellious again in modern times!
"Where do I sleep in this room?" Lu Guozi raised her head, with no tears on her face, and her tone was calm.
Lu Jinliu was a little at a loss for words, what about the shock and pain of being abandoned?What about the promised hysterical vent?
"You sleep in the bedroom, I sleep in the kitchen. I'm not often at home now," Lu Jinliu replied instinctively with a wooden face.Probably got hit too far! ?Forget it, it's a good thing not to cry.
"Oh," Lu Guozi agreed, ready to go to the room to have a look.In fact, if Lu Jinliu hadn't come today, he wouldn't be ready to live anymore.As for crying, he had no more tears to shed.That's fine, everyone will be strangers from now on!
"By the way, this is for you," Lu Jinliu came back to his senses, and handed over the divorce letter and deed of sale in his hand to Lu Guozi. "Also, take some time to go to the town to buy some clothes and jewelry. You can use the ten taels of silver. If it is not enough, tell me."
"This won't work. You have already helped me a lot. I will pay you back the five taels of silver in the future. How can I take your money again?"
"Guozi, you don't need to be so divided. Now you are my only relative. If I don't take care of you, who will take care of you."
Lu Guozi's heart was sour, and her eyes, which were not red when she was sold, almost shed tears.That's right, Lu Jinliu is also his only relative. "Then, you can't give me so much."
"Okay, I'll make more money in the future. Besides, don't you have to buy a lot of things now?" Lu Jinliu couldn't help but stuff the money into Lu Guozi's hands, "You will be my younger brother from now on!"
Lu Guozi was stunned, "But, you are younger than me!"
Lu Jinliu smiled awkwardly, he thought that Lu Guozi was like a junior when he was old, and he didn't realize that his body was less than fifteen years old, "Then, brother! It's all the same, the same! "
Thinking of what he had done recently, Lu Jinliu frowned and planned to ask Zhou Ju about it.
"Auntie, auntie, are you home?" Lu Jin stayed outside Lu Dashan's house and knocked.
"Brother Niu, what are you looking for with my mother? She's gone out," the two younger brothers from the Lu family came out to answer the door.
