Chapter 308 Husband 1 Wants to Be a Widow (8)
"Really? I said this a few days ago, but I'm afraid the Gu family won't appreciate it. By the way, what's your name, Mei?"
"Mei Xiaowu."
Ma Dazhuo then remembered the name of the ugly man in front of her, and she suddenly realized: "Oh, yes! Mei Xiaowu, you and the Gu family are cousins."
"That's right. Sister Ma, you won't think I'm talking nonsense this time, right?"
"How is that possible? Just speak frankly, little brother."
Mei Xiaowu knew something was up, so he approached Ma Dazhuo and said, "Sister Ma, Gu Yuxi is dead, and now the Gu family is eager to drive Zhou Shenyun away. After all, everyone is in danger now, and there are so many people moving, so they can't take care of him for the time being. If you like him, I'll give him to you."
"Hahaha, they really know what's happening. Why don't you tell me the price?"
Ma Dazhuo had just come back from collecting the money for the samples. She still hadn't collected money from several families. By the time she was done, she would still have several dozen taels left.
"Ma Dazhuo, that family is afraid of being cheated, so this deposit is indispensable."
"What? I need a deposit!"
"Don't be angry, Sister Ma. My uncle is a man of few rites, but when the deposit is received, this man will definitely send it to you overnight."
"Is this true?"
"nature."
Ma Dazhuo touched his chin, thought for a moment, then rummaged through his bag, took out two taels of silver, handed it to Mei Xiaowu, and made some harsh remarks.
"Remember, Brother Mei, you know my methods within this ten-mile radius. If you dare to deceive me, then we will have a hard time discussing this."
"Sister Ma, I dare not lie to you."
"Then sign the document."
"Ah, a signature?"
"Of course, if I can't get her, I'll have to pay back the deposit. I can't possibly not get the deposit back, right?"
"I'll go back and ask someone to bring what you want..."
"Will you sign it or not? If not, get out!"
"Sign, I'll sign."
Ma Dazhuo curled his lips, took out a brush, dipped it in saliva, wrote down Mei Xiaowu's name, two copies in total, and handed them to the other party.
"See if there are any problems. You and I will each take a copy. The documents will be destroyed when the people arrive."
Mei Xiaowu took the receipt reluctantly, but when he thought about receiving more money soon, he didn't mind the twists and turns.
"Sister Ma, Zhou Shenyun is a living person after all. You said twenty taels a few days ago..."
Ma Dazhuo knew what Mei Xiaowu meant and immediately arranged the price: "I will only give you 18 taels at most. You also know that many people have moved recently. If you want to give me money, give it to me. If not, I will use it as travel expenses."
"How to say……"
"Forget it then. Just give me back my silver. I don't want you anymore."
Mei Xiaowu protected the silver in his arms and smiled apologetically: "Don't worry, Sister Ma, we will send the person over right away. Is this the place?"
Ma Dazhu rolled her eyes and looked towards her own yard. It didn't seem like the right place to do business. The men there were fighting for her attention all day long. She was a little fed up with it.
She thought about it, then said, "Follow me."
Mei Xiaowu followed Ma Dazhuo, but he felt like something was always watching him. He turned his head: behind him was an empty street, nothing unusual.
After walking a few dozen steps, Ma Dazhuo stopped and said to the people behind him: "I will leave at dawn, and I won't want you by then. You can do whatever you want."
"Then please wait a moment, Sister Ma. They will be here soon."
Mei Xiaowu ran towards Fengzhu Village happily with excitement in his steps. It took less than half an hour to get from the county town to Fengzhu Village. They had a chance tonight.
Gu Zai'er stood outside the door and looked at the situation, feeling uneasy. It was already so late.
"Wife, how about we go to the county town to have a look?"
"What's the hurry? You want me to sleep."
Hu Zhaomei stood up, looked at the people sleeping on the table outside the door, then looked at the house where Zhou Shenyun and the other man were imprisoned, and her desire to get them out became more and more determined.
"Daughter-in-law, why don't we go to the village entrance together? There are many people here."
"Mother-in-law, there's no rush. It's not like they won't come."
"It's dark here, maybe they don't know the way."
Wu Zhuang was now feeling backache and was planning to go out and get a chicken for a snack. She stood up, stretched and complained, "There are so many things to do. Let's go. I'm not the God of Wealth."
Hu Zhaomei smiled inwardly. He wanted to move the person farther away. The Gu family didn't need their married-in son to intervene, and he himself would not allow the good things to flow into the Wu family.
"Let's go."
"Father-in-law, I feel sleepy and want to go back to rest. This path is dark and unsafe."
"It won't take too long. Besides, we have more people. Let's go."
The couple was pushed by Hu Zhaomei and unknowingly walked out of Fengzhu Village and headed towards a more remote path.
"Where are we going?" Hu Zai'er asked Hu Zhaomei in confusion.
"I don't know, but I feel something is wrong." Hu Zhaomei frowned and said, then she felt nothing was wrong and continued walking forward.
When they reached the tree-lined path, they felt a little cold. There were also some frog croakings around them, which was too heavy.
"Why is it so eerie here?" Gu Zaiwei hugged his wife's arm in fear.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here." Wu Zhuang comforted.
"Father-in-law, my husband and I will wait for you here. He is not in good health and cannot walk!"
"I, an old man, can leave. What's wrong with you two young people? Are you planning to take what's already available?"
"Father-in-law, what you said is wrong. My husband and I came here to tell you about this deal because we care about you. Why are you taking a ready-made one?"
"Father, this is really unfair to me and my wife."
"Then you two will walk with me for a while."
"This……"
"Are you feeling guilty? Are you going to leave or not?"
"Anyway, I'm not leaving. You go ahead, my husband. I'll wait for you here."
"My dear wife, we are worried about you being alone in this desolate mountain."
Gu Zaiyi was pulled forward by a brute force. The man in front of her said earnestly, "Why are you so ignorant? If your wife is tired, let her rest for a while. You walk with me."
"Dad, I'm tired too."
"Don't be lazy, just walk over that hill."
Being forcibly dragged away by his own father, Gu Zaiyi had no idea what his father was thinking. After walking just a few dozen steps, his heart was growing colder and colder.
After so many years, his father is still as partial as ever. They are all his children, how can he be so cruel to even calculate such things?
Unconsciously, the two of them loosened their hands, and he quietly moved away, the distance between them was increasing...
Hu Zhaomei calculated the time in his mind and planned to walk a little further away, but when he turned around, he didn't see his son. He was about to shout when a faint fragrance wafted through his nose, and his eyes widened.
"not good!"
He noticed something was wrong and was about to go back and grab his daughter-in-law and son to run away, but he found himself weak all over, his eyes went dark, and he lost consciousness.
