"Leave the task of finding him to me. I will tell my brothers to go look for him. Even if this Taoist Wuxin hides underground, I will dig him out." Gu Mingtai said coldly with a sullen face.
In the following night, the couple could only use their tenderness to fill the uneasiness in each other's hearts.
That night, Zhang Meng realized that the man next to her was really unbearable when he got violent.
When she woke up the next day, she found that her voice was hoarse because she shouted too much last night.
Gu Mingtai, who had already put on his clothes, coughed lightly when he heard her voice and said in a fake serious tone, "It's okay. A comrade of mine once told me there's a herb that can heal sores. I'll find it for you after breakfast."
Zhang Meng looked at him trying to atone for his mistakes, snorted softly, and turned her head away.
The family was sitting together having breakfast when a guest arrived. Uncle Liu, who looked different from the last time he met him, came running in like a gust of wind.
"Uncle Xiaomeng, have you eaten? If not, eat here. I'll get you some dishes and chopsticks."
Uncle Liu didn't know if it was because he had just gotten off the train or what, but his clothes were pretty good, just too wrinkled. The wrinkled clothes really reduced his whole appearance.
"Hehe, thank you, grandma-in-law. That's troublesome. I really haven't eaten since yesterday at noon. I was afraid that someone would miss my things on the train, so I didn't dare to leave." After saying that, Uncle Liu patted the bulge on his chest.
Grandma Zhang smiled and said, "Why are you being so polite? We're all family. Okay, wait, I'll get you some dishes and chopsticks."
As soon as Grandma Zhang left, Zhang Meng immediately looked at Uncle Liu, who was already eating with his hands, and asked with a smile, "Uncle, where are you going to do business again?"
When Uncle Liu heard his niece's question, he immediately ate the food in his mouth and then said, "I went to North China. My God, after going there this time, I realized how prosperous it is there. I guess it's because it's close to the port city. Everything there is so fashionable."
Having said that, Uncle Liu took another dish and put it into his mouth. He reached into his clothes and immediately took out a red box with gold thread from his pocket.
"Here, this is a gift from your uncle to you and your nephew-in-law. When you and your nephew-in-law got married, I didn't have a penny and couldn't give you any gifts. But now it's different. I have money. Consider this a wedding gift from you, your uncle."
Zhang Meng took it with a smile, glanced at Gu Mingtai who was also smiling, and opened the box given by Uncle Liu in front of him.
There were actually two watches inside, one for men and one for women. You could tell at a glance that they were a couple's watch.
"This watch is very expensive, right?" Zhang Meng asked, looking at the two watches.
Uncle Liu quickly swallowed the food in his mouth and said, "It's not expensive. It's expensive here, but it's very cheap in North China. Don't worry about it."
Zhang Meng wanted to say something more, but just as the words were on the tip of her tongue, a hand grabbed her arm, and then she heard Gu Mingtai's voice, "Xiao Meng, let's accept it. This is a gift from my uncle for our marriage. Keep it."
When Uncle Liu heard this, he looked at his nephew-in-law with satisfaction. To be honest, he had met his nephew-in-law several times, but he didn't dare to talk to him every time. The main reason was that he was afraid and always felt that his nephew-in-law gave people a scary feeling.
But this time, when he heard his niece's husband's words of advice to his niece, he felt relieved and forgot the fear in his heart for a moment. He looked over with a smile and said, "Xiao Gu, what you said is very good. It's very thoughtful of my uncle. I like it."
Gu Mingtai smiled, put a piece of meat into Uncle Liu's bowl, and said respectfully, "Uncle, please eat more."
Uncle Liu was delighted again. Overall, this breakfast was quite enjoyable because of Uncle Liu's presence.
Mainly at the dinner table, Uncle Liu would talk from time to time about his experiences, people and things he saw outside. Even Zhang Meng, who often went out, was a little fascinated by listening, not to mention Grandma Zhang and little Zhang Tao who always stayed at home.
When Uncle Liu left, Grandma Zhang and little Zhang Tao were the ones who were most reluctant to see Uncle Liu go.
In the afternoon, Zhang Meng met his young apprentice, Xiaobao. The little guy was still dressed like a little Taoist priest.
As soon as Zhang Meng walked into Zhang Dahu's house, she heard someone talking inside while standing at the door.
"Little fairy, can you please see if my dead husband needs anything in the underworld? If so, please ask him for me so that I can go back and raise money to buy it for him." The person asking the question was a fat woman who was sitting next to Xiaobao.
Xiaobao sat up straight and began to speak in a serious manner, "Your husband said he was a little cold downstairs and the house was always leaking. The neighbors were all laughing at him and told you to fix his house if you had money so that it wouldn't leak anymore."
The fat woman quickly asked, "Where is the leak?"
As soon as she finished asking, Xiaobao suddenly burped forcefully, and then seemed to wake up, "Auntie Pang, your husband is gone."
"Ah, why did he leave so soon? I still have a lot to ask him." Aunt Pang said with a disappointed look on her face.
Xiao Bao sat up straight and said seriously, "Auntie Pang, there's nothing we can do about it. There are time limits for coming up from downstairs, and we can't stay for too long."
"So that's how it is. That's fine, but little fairy, my dead ghost said there was a water leak in the house. What's going on?"
Xiao Bao coughed lightly and continued seriously, "I know. It must be the place where your husband is buried that is leaking water."
"Ah, what should I do, little fairy, you have to help my dead husband." Aunt Pang anxiously pulled Xiaobao's hand.
"Don't worry, don't worry, Auntie Pang, this is of course. How about this, take me to the place where your husband is buried tomorrow, and I will help you take a look."
"Okay, okay, I'll wait for you at home tomorrow." After Aunt Pang said that, she quickly took out a ten-dollar bill from her pocket and stuffed it into Xiaobao's hand.
When Xiaobao saw Zhang Meng standing at the door, he grinned happily and ran to her immediately, "Sister Xiaomeng, when did you come back?"
Zhang Meng nodded to the fat aunt who was passing by, and waited until she was far away before answering Xiaobao, "I came back yesterday."
Holding his little hand, I walked inside and said, "Your business is now better than your master's and mine. Not bad, you are even better than your master."
