After dressing as a widow

Aunt Ma is in charge of the tea, and Uncle Ji leads four or five aunts and aunts in the village to cook. Aunt Lin finds the person in charge of cooking, and Aunt Lin is responsible for the purchase directly.

As soon as these uncles and aunts returned from Lin's house, they quickly told the news about Gu Linzhongju to their family members, and within a long time, the whole village knew the good news.

And those who have relatives in other villages also shared the news with relatives and friends when visiting relatives and friends. Within two or three days, even people in other villages heard about it.

In Datianzi Village, the people who passed by the old lady Gu's house did not deal with the old lady Gu on weekdays, and deliberately shouted at the old lady Gu's house: "Some people just hold straw bags as treasures, and throw them away. Promising son, now that Gu Shuanzi is a big deal, he won the exam and is going to be an official."

The sound was like thunder, and it was impossible for the old lady Gu's family to pretend not to hear it.

The person who spoke was ready to quarrel with Mrs. Gu. This old woman can't suffer at all, and her mouth is still poisonous. If he didn't want to put two knives in her heart, he wouldn't come to provoke her.

But the speaker waited for a long time before the old woman Gu came out, secretly muttering that the old woman has changed her sex today?

Still not in the house at all.

In the house, the old lady Gu who was scared by the knife in Gu Lin's hand when she failed to steal things that time slapped the girl next to her twice: "You little girl, what will you eat? You were a starving ghost in your previous life." Ah, it won’t be left for your brother to eat.”

The beaten girl froze and didn't speak. Before the bowl was snatched away, she quickly took two big mouthfuls into her mouth. With the old lady Gu's slap on her face, she got up and put the basket on her back to cut pigweed.

Mr. Gu put the bowl on the table impatiently: "Okay, you beat this or that every day. If you didn't get the big one out at that time, our family would be like this now."

"Women are short-sighted and can't get on the stage."

The old lady Gu was already agitated by the sound outside, but after being reprimanded by him like this, she completely exploded.

"Bang——" The bowl on the table hit the ground, and the old woman Gu pointed at the old man's nose, "Oh, since you love the older one so much, why didn't you stop me then, why didn't you stick around there?" Look at your legs, you are better than me at instructing people to work, and most of the money you pick up falls into your hands."

The Gu family had a pretty good life in the village back then. The family had a lot of fields, and the annual output was barely enough to feed the next year when new grain came in.

But the old lady Gu and the old man Gu just didn't want to feed Gu Da, thinking that it would be a waste for him to eat. Whenever Gu Da took a bite, they would grab him by the ear and scold him.

And when Gu Da was seven or eight years old and looked older than his peers, he found an excuse and sent him to work in the town.

The two of them decided that such a big child could eat it, but they must not eat their own food.

Unexpectedly, Gu Da could do a good job and earn money, so the couple quarreled in the village, forcing Gu Da to hand over all the wages to them.

In the end, Gu Da smashed his house and went to live under the cliff.

They never expected that Gu Da would be so successful and earn so much money.

What's more, they didn't expect that the oil bottle that Gu Da left behind would win the election and become an official they couldn't afford.

Moreover, they had experienced Gu Shuanzi's ruthlessness before, and they didn't even dare to think about it.

After being sprayed with saliva by the old lady Gu, the old man stopped talking, and only focused on the eldest boy of his second son and the grandson he loved the most: "Yaozu, how is your recent book going? It didn’t say when you can go to the Tongsheng examination.”

Gu Yaozu's hand holding the chopsticks trembled, his eyes flickered, and he calmed down a little: "Soon, the master said that I can try it next year."

"Okay, okay." Fu Gu said two good things in a row. He lost Gu Shuanzi, the white-eyed grandson. Fortunately, he also has Gu Yaozu, a filial grandson who was raised by his side since childhood, and he is also a scholar. He is also the grandfather of Lord Shangguan.

And in Liyu Village, Mrs. Lin, Mrs. Lin, Mrs. Lin, Adie Lin, and Lin Zhen discussed with the aunt in charge of cooking what dishes to use.

Chicken, duck, fish and pork are a must, plus a few vegetables and soup, it is bound to make up ten.

In addition, there are drinks for the day, and I have to go to the town to get them back.

While several people were discussing, a man from the village came in carrying tables and stools: "Uncle Lin, we brought all the tables, chairs and stools we could carry. You can see if there is enough. If not, we will borrow from the neighboring villages."

Father Lin hurriedly stood up, "I'm sorry to trouble you, please sit down and drink a glass of water to rest."

The seven or eight men carrying tables and stools behind them smiled and said, "Okay, thank you, Uncle Lin."

Lin Zhen followed Father Lin to pour water for them. He was a famous person from all over the world. Gu Da had not married for many years after his death. He seems to be the same as when he was a teenager, but the extra maturity gave birth to a different charm.

The men didn't dare to look at him directly, and the voices of saying thank you were like mosquitoes.

Soon, five days passed in a blink of an eye, and it was time to hold a congratulatory banquet for Gu Lin.

Before dawn, the Lin family all got up. Eldest brother Lin and second brother Lin opened the tables and stools and set them up. Elder sister Lin set fire to the three stoves specially built in the yard. .

It was a little brighter, and all the people who came to help from the village arrived one after another. The children played and played around, the girls and boys picked vegetables and washed the dishes, and the men followed Apa Lin. The big fat pig that came back pulled it out.

The big fat pig seemed to know that today was the day for him to go to the killing field, so he backed away with all his strength, but the men holding him were not weak, they grabbed and pushed the big fat pig onto the chopping board.

The master who butchered the pig was a good hand, and he let the big fat pig go cleanly in a few seconds, then poured boiling water, shaved the hair, put the intestines in a basin, cut the pork into pieces and hung it up.

This pig is too big, and its fat meat is wider than a grown man's palm, causing the spectators to whisper: "Such a big pig costs a lot of money."

"The Lin family went to compare the pigs in several villages and bought them. Look at the chickens, ducks, and fish. They are all more expensive than that pig."

"Tsk tsk, if you don't say that the Lin family is well-off, it would cost so much money to hold a banquet."

"If someone in my family wins the exam, I will do the same!"

"Come on, it's just your mud monkey. It's fine if you don't go to the house to expose the tiles. It doesn't work if the ancestral grave smokes!"

"Hahahahaha!"

As time moved closer to noon, more and more people came. At first, Lin Zhen could barely recognize some faces, but in the end he was completely confused. He pulled Apa Lin and asked, "Our family used to have these relatives. ?"

Aunt Lin was also confused, and said: "How can there be so many? When I counted the tables with them, I only counted more than 40 tables. I counted five or six tables more. Now there are probably seventy or eighty tables here."

Lin Zhen suddenly understood that those extra people should have heard that Gu Lin was selected as a candidate, so they came to the Lin family in advance to make acquaintances.

Suddenly, a smile appeared on Lin's father's face, and he pulled Lin Zhen through the crowd and walked towards the courtyard gate: "Little brothers and sisters, you are here!"

"Xiaocheng and Chunlai are here too, come in quickly."

Lin Zhen also hurriedly called out: "Uncle Uncle Daddy."

The Guo family has used composting since the year when Apa Lin and Lin Zhen visited. They had enough to eat and were not hungry. After several years, they finally saved a little money for the air-drained family. family property.

Although the drought last year was a bit sad, the whole family is doing well, and this year is another bumper harvest year.

Guo Fu was younger than when Lin Zhen met a few years ago. He was wearing clean clothes and looked at Aunt Lin: "The person who took the letter returned to the village last night, otherwise I might not have known Such a great joy."

Aunt Lin was very happy to see them, and led them into the house while saying: "I specifically told you to bring the letter before today. Xiao Lin is in the house, and I will take you to meet him."

Aunt Lin was used to being called Gu Lin Shuanzi before, but when he thought that he is now a Juren lord, it would be a bit inappropriate to call him this name again, so he changed his name to Xiao Lin.

"That kid has a bit of a cold temper, but he's not arrogant. Don't look at his cold face later and think he's unhappy. Except for his father, everyone is pretty much the same in front of him."

Guo Fu and his husband opened their mouths. In fact, they didn't dare to hang out in front of Gu Lin. He was a master of Juren, and he was definitely different from them.

There were tables and stools in the house and in the yard, but the people who sat in the room were people who had an unusual friendship with the Lin family, as well as the village head, township head, and head of the village.

They were all sitting on stools, looking at the top with some restraint. They were wearing tea-colored robes, and their hair was tied up high by Gu Lin with headbands.

Father Lin greeted several township chiefs and chiefs, and brought the Guo family in front of Gu Lin: "Xiao Lin, are these your uncle and uncle, and these are your Uncle Cheng and Uncle Cheng."

Lin Zhen, who was following Apa Lin, looked at Gu Lin and touched his nose.

Gu Rin's eyes swept over him, and he said to Guo Fu and Guo Fu's husband, "Uncle, grandpa, uncle."

Then Guo Cheng and Guo Cheng's husband: "Uncle, uncle."

Gu Rin, who was wearing a robe, was different from others in Guo Fu's eyes. Seeing Gu Rin being so polite to them, Guo Fu was a little at a loss and said: "Okay, good boy."

Gu Lin stood up personally and led Guo Fu and the others to sit at the table next to them, asking them to drink some tea first and wait for the dinner to begin.

The township chiefs and the chiefs looked at them eagerly. Although they sat inside after they came in, Gu Lin only spoke to them occasionally. Although they were polite, they were very natural.

Unlike Guo Fu and the others, Gu Lin can lead them to sit down.

Suddenly, firecrackers sounded outside the yard, and the exclaimed voices of the villagers who helped came to my ears: "That's the rich man in the town, look what's in that tray!"

With such a big battle, it was difficult for Lin Zhen and Gu Lin in the room to pay attention. When the two came out, they saw Wang Qin, Huang Yuwen and Chen Xing as the leaders. Behind the three were people carrying trays. Servant, there are fruits, gold and silver on the tray, and rice cakes made into high-rise buildings.

Behind it is the lion dance team.

The pomp is quite large.
