After Xiao Fubao's Life Was Stolen, He Became the Favorite of Everyone In the Capital Chapter 6

Chapter 6 The new father takes care of the old father

When Gu Mingda heard this, he said: "So, even if you are alive, you will kill him. This ghost marriage must be worthy, right?"

Granny Cai opened her mouth to respond, but this time Zhang Guangzong suddenly jumped over.

He always regarded himself as a scholar and was not willing to deal with the villagers. When he saw that my mother was trying to trick her, he ran out.

"Gu Mingda, please stop trying to trick my mother. Don't talk about whether she has these things or not. Give my daughter back to me now!" Zhang Guangzong said fiercely.

Gu Mingda and Zhang Yuniang are worthy of being a couple. When facing Zhang Guangzong, each one made a bigger statement than the other and said: "You don't even call me brother-in-law? Is this the rule for you scholars?"

Zhang Guangzong was so angry that he wanted to say that Gu Mingda didn't call Granny Cai just now, but times had changed, and now it seemed like he was being petty to settle old scores.

Gu Mingda narrowed his eyes and saw that he still didn't call anyone, so he said: "Are you not going to recognize me as a relative? Well, I will tell others later that you and I have nothing to do with each other, and you don't have to do it anymore." It's so hard to prove to others that you are my brother-in-law.”

Zhang Guangzong looked at Gu Mingda in disbelief after hearing this.

Zhang Guangzong has always disliked Gu Mingda.

They were both scholars, but they were all just children, and none of them were admitted as scholars. However, his and Gu Mingda's popularity in the circle of scholars in Guang'an County was very different.

Gu Mingda has become a guest of the county's lecturers and has a wide circle of friends among scholars.

In contrast, Zhang Guangzong is like an unpleasant mouse. Others always point out his small mistakes and keep mentioning them. His classmates are very repulsive to him. If it weren't for his status as Gu Mingda's brother-in-law, he would have no chance. Several scholars were willing to pay attention to him.

Zhang Guangzong always thought that he was hiding well, and felt that Gu Mingda didn't know that he was showing off outside under the name of his brother-in-law.

He didn't expect that Gu Mingda knew everything, but he never mentioned it.

At this time, when Gu Mingda said this, it was no different than directly poking Zhang Guangzong's aorta. He wished he could find a crack in the ground and crawl in on the spot.

Zhang Guangzong would not blame himself. He cursed Gu Mingda in his heart for being a hypocrite and deliberately watching his jokes.

But no matter how angry he was, Zhang Guangzong still had to bow his head to Gu Mingda and shout: "Brother-in-law" in order to be able to eat well in the local area.

After Gu Mingda responded, his brother-in-law held his head even more clearly, and continued to point out from the moral high ground, saying: "Although you and Yun Niang are not born from the same mother, they are still biological siblings. Although Yun Niang's You have learned nothing about noble moral character, but as your brother-in-law, I can also be regarded as your elder brother. You should also understand that an elder brother is like a father. There are some rules that I have to teach you..."

Zhang Guangzong couldn't help clenching his fists after hearing these words.

At this time, Zhang Yunniang, the wife who Gu Mingda said was of high moral character, was holding Niu Niu in her arms and peering out of the door to see the excitement. Seeing her husband quelling all the arrogance of his younger brother with a series of beatings, Zhang Yunniang couldn't help but smile. got up.

Niu Niu's eyes were shining brightly and she said, "Mom, the new father is so awesome. The old father didn't dare to say a word in front of him."

Zhang Yunniang gently touched the top of Niu Niu's soft hair and said, "When you meet your old father in the future, you just call me uncle, you know?" Looking at her husband's attitude, Zhang Yunniang understood that it was almost certain that Niu Niu would become his daughter. .

In the yard, Gu Mingda continued to teach his brother-in-law as the eldest brother: "The family has no money for medical treatment and can only watch my daughter die, and deliberately waiting for the daughter to die of illness to get married. These are two different things. If we really want to make a fuss, do you think Is there anyone else willing to take the college exam with you?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Guangzong glanced at his biological mother, Granny Cai, with hatred. If she hadn't been so lax in her words, no one would have known that he sold his daughter into a ghost marriage.

His biggest obsession in life is to be admitted as a scholar in the imperial examination, so that those who look down on him can see that Zhang Guangzong is much better than Gu Mingda.

To be a scholar, you must pass the college examination. In addition to having a local student as a guarantor, you must also enter into a bond with four children to ensure that the other party will not commit fraud.

Gu Mingda's threat was not a lie. Scholars are the noblest people. If word spread that Zhang Guangzong forced his daughter to death just to get married, no one would be willing to enter into a guarantee with him. He would really not be able to take the college examination and become a scholar.

A hint of guilt flashed across Zhang Guangzong's face at this time, but he was not willing to give up his daughter to the Gu family just like that, so he could only say harshly: "I will raise my daughter by myself and will not go to other families. What my mother just said nonsense, I have no intention of getting her married."

Gu Mingda also knew that he would not bow his head so easily. Mrs. Cai only said that she sold it to a member of staff, but did not say to whom. Gu Mingda thought for a while, then took two steps towards Zhang Guangzong, leaned into his ear and whispered: "Which family member did you originally plan to sell the child to? Yuan Wang's family, right?"

Zhang Guangzong was shocked when he heard this. He didn't expect that Gu Mingda could guess this.

The reason Gu Mingda guessed was quite simple. He happened to hear that Wang Yuan's wife's youngest son was gone. The child was not much different in age from Niu Niu. It was already difficult for ordinary people to survive, and they would not be willing to spend money to support their son. Yin marriage.

Gu Mingda continued: "Based on my understanding of Wang Yuanwai, he won't be willing to pay too high a price, about five taels of silver, right?"

Previously, it could be said that a blind cat encountered a dead mouse. This time, Zhang Guangzong was really scared and sweating. Although he had known that Gu Mingda was extraordinary, after being a relative for so many years, he had no idea that Gu Mingda was a living god. , you can guess everything!

Looking at his reaction, Gu Mingda knew that he had guessed correctly. A healthy girl like Niuniu out there costs about seven or eight taels of silver. The price Wang Yuanwai would give would not be higher than this, and if the price was too low, the Zhang family would not Being so eager, he guessed right and he was right.

Gu Mingda also knows that he can't push people too hard. Although the Zhang family is not a good person, after all, if you raise a child to five years old, if you don't give them anything, then they will be the ones who are criticized. Take care of your family.

"I'll pay six taels of silver, and Niuniu will be adopted into our family." Gu Mingda offered a price on the spot that Zhang Guangzong couldn't refuse.

Zhang Guangzong was already tempted when he saw that he didn't have to bear the bad reputation of marrying underworld, and could get one tael more money than marrying underworld.

But he had always regarded Gu Mingda as his opponent, and he let his opponent achieve what he wanted so easily, and he suddenly felt a sense of frustration that came from nowhere.

"No, Niuniu is the child I picked up from the river. I have watched her grow up and work so hard to raise her until now. I really can't bear to adopt her to you." Zhang Guangzong tried to force Gu in this way. Mingda increases the price.

He also wanted to see Gu Mingda deflated.

But Gu Mingda knew his tricks very well, so he bargained in reverse: "Fifty taels of silver, if you make one more counteroffer, I will lower the price again."

Gu Mingda's attitude was very clear. He wanted to adopt the child, and he would never tolerate Zhang Guangzong's bad habits.
