Chapter 22: 22

Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Xu did not have any enmity. On the contrary, more than twenty years ago, the two were close friends who talked about everything——

Their family background was similar. The treasure of the Wang family was their daughter, and the parents of the Xu family regard the only daughter of the Xu family as the lifeblood. The two girls who were raised like jewels met by chance, shared similar interests and hit it off.

How good were the two of them? Because they liked cyan (Qing) the most at that time, they agreed that the first child’s name would have the word “Qing” in it.

Later, Mrs. Wang fell in love freely and deviantly, and the Xu family also secretly promised a poor scholar.

It was just that the two of them were not satisfied with the other’s crush, and it was not an exaggeration to say that they were sneering.

Mrs. Xu said that Father Wu was too poor, a homeless and unemployed little businessman dared to beat the idea of ​​a merchant’s lady, but he still refused to join the family, and the toad wanted to eat swan meat!

On the other hand, Mrs. Wang thought that the scholar that Mrs. Xu liked was both noble and weak.

After the two had a fight, they got married. Mrs. Wang followed Father Wu to Batou Village, while Mrs. Xu married a scholar and moved to another place with her parents. Since then, they had cut off contact and never communicated again. Unexpectedly, time had changed and the world had changed. After more than twenty years, the two of them actually returned to Hanshan Town.

“She’s going to die of complacency. Did Xiao Erhei just say that her son is a scholar? For a scholar’s son, her eyes grew to the sky?!”

The more Mrs. Wang said, the angrier she became, and she simply laid back on the bed and sulked inwardly.

Gu Yin looked at her dumbfoundedly.

What kind of enemy did she encounter? She dared to be her mother-in-law’s former best friend.

After a while, Xiao Erhei also arrived. He was afraid that he would mess up a business, so he went back to inform his master first, and asked him to come forward to go to Xu’s place to be comprehensive, and then he went to apologize.

“I really didn’t know that Madam and Aunt Xu have a enmity. Madam, I am young and not sensible, please forgive me.”

Mrs. Wang was so angry that she didn’t want to speak at all, she just waved her hand outward to indicate that the matter had nothing to do with him.

Xiao Erhei was about to cry in a hurry, and then turned to look at Gu Yin and explained, “I only heard from the master that Madam wanted a cheap, spacious and safe house, so I led you to Aunt Xu’s place. On the one hand, there is a bureaucrat, and secondly, Aunt Xu is also a widow, and her situation is somewhat similar to yours, so…”

Mrs. Wang sat up awkwardly, “What? She’s also a widow?”

The matter of the Xu family was not a secret in the town, so Xiao Erhei said, “Aunt Xu used to be the only daughter of a wealthy family in the town, but later she married her husband and moved to the prefecture together. Later, the Xu family’s business failed, and Aunt Xu’s husband also fell ill and died, so she took her son, Qingchuan, back to our town.”

Mrs. Wang said anxiously, “Her business failed, the man died, she still has a son who wants to study, how can she live?”

Xiao Erhei was frightened by her unconsciously raised voice, and stepped back two steps, “A lean camel is bigger than a horse, and the three connected yards in Jinyi Lane belong to Aunt Xu. They live in one of them. One is rented to the bureaucrat man, and the other is the one I showed you today.”

Mrs. Wang got off the bed directly, not even bothering to put on her shoes, and scolded, “I told her not to marry! She just didn’t listen to me! Is it such a good life to live as a widow?! She’s lazy and greedy! Is the rent enough for her expenses?!”

Mrs. Wang walked around the room several times, then turned her head sharply to look at Gu Yin, “You and Xiao Erhei go sign the contract. You like it very much, so rent the house for four or two a year!”

………………

In Jinyi Alley, Xiao Erhei’s master also went to the Xu family’s door to apologize.

Mrs. Xu had already finished scolding Mrs. Wang with her son, and when she saw Xiao Erhei’s master, she hung her face.

Although he impatiently pushed this deal to his apprentice, the deal was a small matter, but a bad reputation could be a big deal.

Therefore, he first apologized for his apprentice very politely, and then explained, “My young apprentice is ignorant, just thinking that Madam Wu has a similar situation and meets your requirements, so he took the risk of taking her to you, please forgive him.”

Mrs. Xu was still annoyed, but she was stunned when she heard what he said, and asked him, “What do you mean by being in a similar situation?”

Although the incident with Mrs. Wang happened two days ago, the Hanshan Town was so large, and the middle man was naturally well-informed. He knew Mrs. Wang invited the patriarch to come forward and then got a sum of money from her brothers.

After hearing that, Mrs. Xu was silent. After a long while, she got up directly, but when she walked to the door, she felt that something was wrong, she turned to look at Xu Qingchuan and said, “Son, you go with the middleman and say… I don’t know, you can make up your own excuses, anyway, I only need two taels of silver a year for that house.”

A lean camel is bigger than a horse. It expresses the gap between the rich person and the poor person. Even if the rich one suffers property damage, the rest of their possessions are much greater than the poor one’s.
