Traveling through the world

The Su family is currently busy with the eldest son's marriage, and everyone is very busy.

The eldest son of the Su family, Su Xiyin, heard someone knocking on the door and came out. He saw a young man standing at the door, and asked, "Is there something wrong, little brother?"

Hearing this, Qian Yu endured his embarrassment and walked into the courtyard to salute slightly: "I have something to do, may I ask if Old Man Su is at home?"

"My father is at home, are you?" Su Xiyin saw Qian Yu for the first time, and thought he was a scholar when he saw him wearing a long gown, but his family has been carpenters for several generations, so how could he have anything to do with scholars?

"My name is Qian Yu, from Shanghe Village." Qian Yu gave a brief introduction.

"What? You are Qian Yu?" Su Xiyin's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly shouted to the back room: "Father, mother, my sister-in-law is here."

When I was young, Father Su and Mother Su walked out of the house quickly, Father Su was all smiles, and Mother Su was worried.

"Why did my son-in-law come so early in the morning? Did Yulan tell you that her elder brother got married today?" Father Su narrowed his eyes with a smile, "Come in, come in, Xi Tian, ​​for your brother-in-law Pour a cup of tea."

Su Xitian, who was chopping pork in the house, put down the knife and jumped in front of Qian Yu, smiled and bowed, "Hi brother-in-law."

Qian Yu was stunned when she heard the words, she couldn't imagine the scene in front of her even after thinking about it, she should or shouldn't or should not.

"It's no use just saying brother-in-law is good, dad asked you to pour tea." Su Xiyin looked at her younger brother with a smile.

Su Xitian slapped his forehead, jumped up and ran away and said, "Oh, I'll go right away!"

"Son-in-law, sit down! Hehe." Father Su stroked his beard and looked at his son-in-law, the more he looked more satisfied, his old friend unexpectedly raised such a good son.

"Thank you." Qian Yu felt a little embarrassed by Papa Su's enthusiasm. It seemed that the bride eloped with someone without telling her family.

Father Su was taken aback when he heard the words and said with a smile, "You don't have to be so polite when your son-in-law has entered the old man's house."

Qian Yu nodded in embarrassment when he heard this, and looked around, the Su family was also living in a tight situation, seeing the smile on Father Su's face, Qian Yu didn't know whether he should speak or not.

"Brother-in-law drinking tea!" Su Xitian smiled innocently, and boldly asked: "Brother-in-law, why didn't my elder sister come?"

"Your elder sister just got married yesterday, and according to the rules, she won't come back until three days later." Father Su smiled and glared at his younger son, then looked at Mother Su beside him and said, "Mother, what's wrong with you? Why are you out of your mind when your son-in-law comes?" .”

"I, I'm happy." Mother Su lowered her head and didn't dare to look at Qian Yu. Matchmaker Yuan came back yesterday and said that Brother Qian Jiayu noticed something was wrong. Everyone in Shanghe Village knew that her daughter had fled without permission. Go, she felt uneasy this morning, and she came to the door before noon.

Although Qian Yu was shy and didn't like to talk, he was really observant. Seeing Su's mother's expression in his eyes, his heart was even clearer. The so-called mother-in-law in front of him must be well aware of the bride's escape.

"Mother, is this my brother-in-law?" Su Yumei, who was cooking in the kitchen, ran out wearing an apron, and asked Su's mother in a low voice, is this man no worse than a scholar, so that my sister can still live a good life.

"Uncle Su!" Qian Yu said and stood up.

"Hey, it's called father-in-law!" Father Su said unhappily, buttoning the cigarette ash.

Qian Yu opened his mouth when he heard the words, but couldn't utter the word father-in-law. He lowered his head for a moment and said, "Uncle Su, to tell you the truth, I came here today to ask for 20 taels of betrothal money."

"What? Sister-in-law, my sister just married you yesterday, and today you come to ask for money. There is no such reason in the world." Su Xiyin was in a hurry. Today he is going to marry a daughter-in-law.

Hearing this, Qian Yu secretly cheered herself up, not to mention today that the bride will not be able to hide it when she returns home in three days.

"Uncle Su, Ling'ai ran away last night, presumably because she didn't want to get married with my nephew. If that's the case, let's let go of the marriage between the two families."

When Father Su heard that the cigarette stick in his hand fell to the ground, his hands trembled with anger. This disobedient girl actually escaped from marriage. I heard that the Zhang family sent people to look for Zhang Ze the day before yesterday. It seems that the two had discussed it.

"Impossible, how could my sister run away from marriage?" Su Xiyin's heart pounded after he finished speaking, he knew that his sister liked that scholar, could it be...

"Nephew Qian Yu!" Father Su walked in front of Qian Yu, "My Su family has an unfilial daughter, I really feel sorry for your Qian family, but the money was given to Xiyin to marry a wife, and I won't be able to take it all at once. If you pay so much, I'll give you two taels of silver, and when the food is sold, I'll pay you back slowly, how about it?"

Hearing this, Qian Yu nodded and said, "I'll just rely on Uncle Su, but I want a receipt." It's not that Qian Yu can't trust Uncle Su, it's really unpredictable. What's the use of verbal promises in modern times? There are many debtors.

"That's right, Xi Tian, ​​go and get the pen and paper from your room." Father Su called out to his youngest son, and then told Mother Su, "What are you waiting for? Nephew Qian Yu."

Su Yumei and Su Xitian were in a state of shock, and only recovered after being yelled at by her father.

"Father, here comes the pen and paper." Su Xitian carefully handed it to his father.

Father Su sighed heavily and said: "Xitian, you write it down, write down that the Su family owes the Qian family 20 taels of silver, and pay back two taels today, and the rest will be paid back slowly in the future."

Su Xitian sat at the table trembling slightly with a pen in his hand. He didn't know many characters and couldn't write them.

"You, what do you study all day?" Father Su was angry.

"Let me write it!" Seeing that old man Su wanted to hit Su Xitian, Qian Yu hurriedly stood beside little Su Xitian and said.She just came here to ask for the money back, not to implicate the innocent, so she sat down and took the bibliography handed over by Su Xitian and began to write eloquently.

Father Su stood watching from the sidelines, getting angrier the more he watched, the dead old friend taught such a promising son, but his own son even wrote his own family name crookedly. My daughter, if I don't go to such an innocent family to be a human being, what blessings can I enjoy, and I am afraid that I will live a lifetime of suffering in the future.

"Uncle Su, if you have no doubts, just make a fingerprint." Qian Yu handed the written IOU to Father Su and said.

Father Su didn't have any questions, so he took it and stamped his handprints desperately, took two taels of silver from Mother Su and handed it to Qian Yu, saying, "It's my daughter who is unlucky!"

"Where, it's Qian Yu who is not blessed to climb high." Qian Yu politely took the silver and said, "I won't bother you, my nephew. I'm leaving."

Father Su nodded and asked his youngest son to send Qian Yu out.

"Her mother!" Father Su shouted with all his might, "You already knew that, right, you..."

Su's mother raised her head with her lowered head when she heard the words, "I also found out that Magnolia was missing yesterday morning, I..."

"What? Yesterday morning? Who was that on the sedan chair?" Father Su looked at Mother Su upon hearing this.

Seeing the eldest son's eyes were on her, Mother Su's old face flushed with shame, she lowered her head and said, "I went to wake Yulan up yesterday morning, and found, Ah, Ah Fang was sitting in front of the bed in a wedding dress."

Su Xiyin was shocked when she heard that, she looked at her mother and said, "Mother, Ah Fang is my daughter-in-law who has never been married, how can you let her go to worship for my younger sister!"

Su's mother cried. How could she have any good ideas as a woman. She was exhausted physically and mentally when her daughter ran away overnight, and today she faced her son's reprimand. Another thing that made her feel ashamed.

Qian Yu left the Su family with two taels of silver in his arms, heading all the way to the county seat.

"Boss Wang!" Qian Yu shouted standing at the door of the rice shop.

"Hey, Qian Yu, what's the matter?" Boss Wang walked out with a smile.

Qian Yu smiled and said, "It's nothing serious, but last year, Boss Wang said that there was a shortage of accountants in the store. Is there still a shortage?"

"Quiet, short! To be honest, I'll be waiting for you." Boss Wang laughed loudly, "I've been looking forward to your coming since I saw how quickly you settle accounts last year! Come, come, come, come in. "

"Well, come on, we will pay three hundred Wen a month, and I will include food and lodging. If you don't live here, we will pay five hundred Wen." Boss Wang's abacus crackled.

Qian Yu nodded and said, "Yes, but my family still has land to cultivate. Can I leave early after I finish the calculations."

"No problem, as long as the accounts are settled, you can leave at any time." Boss Wang readily agreed.

Qian Yu laughed and said, "Thank you, Boss Wang."

"Qian Yu, come here and take these account books. Let's start today." Boss Wang handed the thick account books to Qian Yu.

"Hey, as long as Boss Wang is busy." Qian Yu replied with a smile. After Boss Wang left, Qian Yu opened the account book and began to calculate in his mind.
