Chapter 1763 Just a sword
Although Uncle Meng and Tao Shi are not very affectionate and loving as husband and wife, they had a good life at the beginning.
Though Tao Shi was all about her family and her younger brother, Uncle Meng didn't care about that. After all, he felt that his life was saved by his father-in-law, and he himself would help. What's more, he was out all year round, and he didn't have any elders at home, so Tao's family couldn't help but take more care of him.
She has just married, so she is not familiar with herself, and it is normal for her to be close to her family.
Originally, life was flat, and Uncle Meng was very satisfied. Who knew that one day, his father-in-law's attitude towards him suddenly became cold.
"I didn't understand at first, but I didn't know the reason until a few days ago. After my father-in-law listened to the old guard's words, he always thought that my family's treasure was some precious gold and silver jewelry. After I married you, he knocked on the left. Right-click and know that the so-called treasure is just a sword."
"This sword is called Xuanyuan Sword. Xuanyuan Sword is a legendary weapon. It is said that the person who gets it is like a divine help."
Of course, these are legends, and the sword is indeed a good sword, but the legendary color given to it is completely fabricated by others. But for those who believe, this sword is the shortcut to their success.
"The sword was acquired by my grandfather by accident. The Meng family cherishes the Xuanyuan sword very much, but my father-in-law is not a martial artist and does not know much about weapons. In his mind, the Xuanyuan sword is no different from a scissors kitchen knife. No matter how sharp, a sword is not as good as a few. The two silvers came really well. He was very disappointed, he tried his best to save me, and married his daughter to me.
Of course, such emotions do not last long.
Although Father Tao did not get the treasure, the Meng Family Guard Bureau also helped the Tao family a lot. After Tao's father tactfully expressed that he wanted to buy a small house in the county town, and Meng Xiaoshu was very happy to say that he would come out with the money, Tao's father resumed his former enthusiasm.
After all, the conditions of the Meng family are much better than those of the Tao family. If the daughter does not marry Uncle Meng, she can only marry the peasant son in the nearby village.
Compared with those people, it is more advantageous to marry into the Meng family.
There are no elders in the Meng family, and Uncle Meng's only elder brother doesn't necessarily come back once a year. The entire security bureau is called Uncle Meng.
Father Tao enjoyed the filial piety of this son-in-law very much. Who knew that the good times would not last long, the old man's health began to deteriorate, and he passed away not long after.
Before his death, he repeatedly told Uncle Meng to take good care of the Tao family, and the Tao family depended on him.
"Since then, your Tao family has been talking about my father-in-law's life-saving grace in my ears, for fear that I will forget it because my father-in-law passed away. In fact, you don't have to. I, Meng Kuan, always do what I say, not to mention. , Your family is my family, as long as the principle is not violated, I will naturally help if I can."
"Thinking about it now, I did it wrong. Helping is not like that. Two families are two families. I treat him as a younger brother, but he treats me as a fool."
said, Uncle Meng raised his head and looked at Mrs. Zhang.
"That day, when the bandits broke into the Tao's house, they originally wanted to attack Tao Fei, right? Why did he suddenly change his mind and take him away? It's because my brother-in-law brought misfortune and said that my family has the Xuanyuan sword, right?"
Everyone turned their heads quickly and looked at Mrs. Zhang. Tao Shi was even more shaky, and the unbelievable information that Uncle Meng said hit her mind all at once.
