- ?
Hu Guirong's old lady has always been in poor health and has been hanging by medicine all year round. This is why Hu Guirong made a lot of money by hunting, but didn't save any money.
But when even the best medicine didn't work, his blind mother finally couldn't hold on anymore and passed away at the beginning of spring.
The Hu family didn't have many relatives, but Hu Guirong knew how to be a man on weekdays, and he got along well with some neighbors. With their help, the funeral of the blind woman was quite lively.
"Now you are not dragged down, and Yun Niang is also a widow over there, why don't you find someone to make peace with, and renew your relationship with Yun Niang."
During the funeral, Hu Guirong's good buddies persuaded him.
"Don't talk nonsense, Mrs. Yun's son is very promising. He became a scholar at the age of seven. You said that Mr. Xiucai would just watch his mother remarry? You are not helping Rongzi, but harming him."
"Hey, don't mention it, let's drink."
Everyone was chattering. Seeing Hu Guirong's ugly expression, he quickly changed the subject.
Ever since Mrs. Yun got married, Hu Guirong stopped letting them mention each other in front of him, saying that it would be harmful to the other's reputation, for fear that her husband's family would hear rumors and treat her badly.
Even though the husband of the other party has passed away for many years, Hu Guirong still refuses to mention it, because for widows, reputation is even more important.
Today is also because of his blind mother's funeral, and thinking that Hu Guirong will be alone in the future, everyone brings up Meng Yunniang despite his dislike.
"I have to go into the mountains in a few days, and this time I will go deeper. I have to ask you to take care of my yard."
Hu Guirong was too hot to drink, so he used a bowl of hot tea in front of him instead of sake, and toasted these friends with a glass of wine.
"There are big bugs in our deep mountains. What are you going to do in the deep mountains?"
Upon hearing his words, several friends were shocked.
"I just think it's too dangerous to make a living by hunting all the time. You all know that my father, my grandfather, and my great-grandfather all died in the mountains. Now that my mother is gone, I don't have any trouble, so I just want to Take a risk, if you can beat the big bug, the money you get in exchange is enough for me to set up a small shop and live a stable life."
What Hu Guirong didn't say was that he wanted to settle down and guard Meng Yunniang from afar.
"Why take such a risk? You earn enough money from hunting on weekdays. Before, it was because of your aunt's illness that you needed to spend money for a long time. Now that your aunt is gone, you can save money by yourself. You can save it for three to five years." After some money, isn¡¯t it good to marry a daughter-in-law and have three or two fat boys?¡±
If the tiger is so easy to fight, hunters all over the world will go to the deep mountains to hunt the tiger. Isn't it because the thing is so powerful that all hunters who try to attack it will almost die, so the price of it is extraordinarily high.
Now Hu Guirong wants to fight, but it is almost like fighting for his life.
"I have a safe business here, which is perfect for you."
A friend of Hu Guirong who was a dartman said after thinking: "The day after tomorrow, a mother and son went to Beijing, because they were worried that there might be robbers along the way, and they wanted to hire a strong man with strong martial arts to accompany them to protect them, because it would take time to go back and forth to the capital. It's relatively long, and many escorts with wives and children at home are unwilling to take this job, you need money now, and you don't have family members to drag you down, so you can give it a try."
"It takes less than two months to go back and forth to the capital, and the other party is willing to pay eight taels of silver, and when you go to the capital, you can also buy some fresh goods from there and sell them back, making a difference, although it is not as much as you can earn from hunting big bugs. , the victory lies in safety."
Hu Guirong was moved by these words, he was not absolutely sure about going to the deep mountains to fight the big worms, if he really died in the mountains, and Yunniang was bullied in the future, would he not be able to protect her behind her.
"It's just that I'm still hot and filial."
Hu Guirong was still a little hesitant, he was afraid that it would be bad luck for his employer to dislike him.
"What's the matter, the young master said, he himself has just been born as a child, and he doesn't shy away from these things."
Hu Guirong's escort friend said comfortingly, if the employer hadn't said something first, he would not have taken the initiative to mention this business.
"Okay, when is the specific time, I will take over this job."
Hu Guirong nodded, but listening to his friend's description just now, he always felt that it seemed a bit too coincidental, but he didn't think too much about it¡ª¡ª
On the third day, when Hu Guirong was waiting for his employer to arrive at the appointed pier, and saw Yunniang and her son, he realized that his intuition was not wrong that day.
"why you!"
Meng Yunniang's voice was a bit rough, she really didn't expect that the escort who escorted them to the capital was actually Hu Guirong.
"I'll go to the Escort Bureau and ask them to change to another Escort Master."
Hu Guirong felt that Meng Yunniang probably didn't want to see him. If he hadn't refused to elope with her at the beginning, she would not have married Jiang Dachun and would not have become a widow.
"No need, the boat will leave soon."
How could Jiang Liu let Hu Guirong go? He had already thought about it, and used this method to abduct him to the capital.
"You have great strength, help me carry these two boxes."
Jiang Liu pointed to the two large camphor wood boxes containing salutes, and directed to Hu Guirong.
"oh."
Hu Guirong was a little confused, but subconsciously followed Jiang Liu's words and picked up the pole, picked up the two big boxes to the boat, and forgot all of a sudden what he said just now that he was going to change a bodyguard.
"Is it the ghost of you kid?"
Meng Yunniang twisted her son's ears severely, and guessed that it was the kid's trick. Originally, she thought her son was dead, but now it seems that he never forgot about it from the beginning to the end.
"Mother, you've wronged me, but I didn't do anything."
Jiang Liu spread his hands innocently: "Maybe this is fate."
"Look, the boat has already left, even if Uncle Hu wants to change people, he can't get off the boat. If you really don't want to get along with Uncle Hu, you can endure these two months."
Jiang Liu had calculated the time well, and there was not much time left to leave the ship when they arrived at the pier, and then he directed Hu Guirong to send their salutes to the cabin, and when the things arrived, the ship should also leave Well, even if the two of them wanted to quarrel, they couldn't do it.
"Anyway, no one knew us on the way to the capital. Besides, we know Uncle Hu well anyway. He is more reliable than other bodyguards, and Uncle Hu is tall and strong. Generally, bandits don't see Uncle Hu. If you dare to fight with us, it will be safer."
Jiang Liu explained the truth to the beautiful lady, Meng Yunniang listened silently, and did not refute, as if she had acquiesced¡ª¡ª
In the evening, Hu Guirong was breathing on the deck of the boat. Jiang Liu came out of the cabin at some point and sat beside him.
"You like my mother!"
These words are firm, without any hesitation.
"It's too cold, you'll catch a cold."
Hu Guirong didn't answer the question, but he was thinking about why Jiang Liu asked him this question, whether it was with malice or with good intentions. Although the child in front of him is young, he is a child prodigy with a reputation as a scholar. He did not dare to underestimate this child's brain at all, and he never thought of fooling him in the same way as a child.
"No, the padded jacket my mother sewed for me is thick."
The nights on the river are always very cold, so Jiang Liu put on his winter padded jacket, and now he doesn't feel cold at all.
"You haven't answered me yet, do you like my mother?"
Jiang Liu asked again, he felt that the adults of this era are hypocritical, coy, and not open at all.
"I have a business. After I go to the capital, I still need a trustworthy person to help me. If you want, you can stay in the capital." Seeing that Hu Guirong had been silent, Jiang Liu simply changed the topic.
"By the way, if you want to marry my mother, you have to wait at least a few years."
Without waiting for Hu Guirong to answer, he stood up and patted the sitting Hu Guirong on the shoulder.
"Why do we have to wait a few years?"
Hu Guirong blurted out the doubts in his heart.
Xiao Mian, just like this, I still dare not admit that I like his mother!
Jiang Liu smiled: "Naturally, I have to wait a few years. When I win the first prize, if my mother is willing to marry at that time, I will send her out with ten miles of red makeup."
Just being a scholar is not enough, he has to stand higher to fight against the secular ethics.
Jiang Liu pointed to the distant sky, feeling that he was very chic when he said these words. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
