Not long after Jia Zhang returned, she came over with Jia Gui.
After hearing Jia Zhang's guess, Jia Gui scolded her for talking nonsense, saying that there were not many rich girls in the alley.
Those who can make money are controlled by others. If you still want to run away from them, you are dreaming.
When Jia Gui came over, he pulled Jia Youcai aside to talk.
"Uncle Six, what's going on? Didn't you say you were going to the city to sell the books and exchange them for food and then come back?
Why did she bring so many people with her? She even said she wanted to marry into your family. Tell me, have you been deceived?
Jia Youcai rolled his eyes at Jia Gui and said, "You're lying to me, grandma! The person who can lie to me, Jia Youcai, hasn't been born yet.
I'm not going to talk nonsense with you. She has a clean background. She is the female owner of the Xueru Silk Shop in Daqianmen. When you return to the city, you can ask around and you'll find out.
Go back quickly and ask your wife to kill the chicken and cook. Don't even think about anything else. From now on, just call me Sixth Aunt. You won't regret it."
Jia Gui opened his mouth in surprise and asked, "Sixth Uncle, what you said is true. I have never been to Xueru Silk Shop, but I have heard of its reputation. I heard that the shopkeeper is a beautiful girl who is engaged to the Hou family of the big grain shop in the city. I heard that it was quite lively when I was away.
How come she is going to marry into the Jia family in the blink of an eye? Does the Hou family know about it?
The Hou family runs a big grain store. If they can succeed without some backing, it will be no problem.
Uncle Six, you seem to be in big trouble. What are you going to do now?"
Jia Youcai listened to Jia Gui's words and thought that his nephew knew a lot.
He smiled and said, "There is no such thing as the Hou family. The Hou family is finished. Yesterday, their store was robbed and people were killed in the explosion. Their son also died in the alley outside. I heard that he was also robbed. The Hou family's fiancée is a widow, and I saved her again yesterday.
Seeing that I'm handsome and graceful, she insisted on marrying me. If I weren't handsome and my family wasn't wealthy, would she be worthy of me with her status as a widow?"
Concubine Jia was dumbfounded. How could this be even more bizarre than what was written in the storybook?
What kind of person are you, Jia Youcai? Everyone in the village knows you. And you saved people? What qualifications do you have to save people? And you look down on others. You can brag like a cow to death.
Seeing Jia Gui in a daze, Jia Youcai pushed him aside and said, "Alright, my husband doesn't need you to worry about him. Go back and cook for the guests. That's the right thing to do."
In the future, she will be your Aunt Xiaoliu. If you keep fawning on her, who knows, she might introduce a girl from the city to Dongxu."
Jia Gui cursed in his heart, you are just making empty promises, what kind of person is his son? How could a young lady in the city like him? This is just nonsense.
Anyway, there was nothing he could do about Jia Youcai, so he had to take Jia Zhang back to cook.
After all the things were moved into the house, Jia Youcai began to instruct Cai Quanwu to clean up, first putting the things in their proper places and throwing away the torn clothes and quilts that were brought in.
Then they carried Old Man Chen, wrapped in a quilt, into the bedroom.
Chen Xueru and Chen Yueru stood aside with a look of disgust on their faces. Looking at the dilapidated house of Jia Youcai, they felt extremely regretful. But since they had come here, it would be dangerous to go back, so they could only make do with it for the time being.
Jia Youcai looked at Chen Xueru's disgusted expression and said with a smile, "Alright, stop looking at that country bumpkin like a city dweller.
This will be your home from now on. As the saying goes, if you marry a chicken, you follow the chicken; if you marry a dog, you follow the dog. If you marry a farmer, you will be a farmer.
From now on, you can follow me and farm in the countryside, and you won’t starve.”
Chen Xueru rolled her eyes as she listened to Jia Youcai's teasing. "Stop it, I'll move back to the city once this hurdle is over. There's nothing to do in this crappy countryside. If you want to stay by yourself, I won't suffer with you."
