Chapter 1,763 Just 1 Sword
Although Uncle Meng and Mrs. Tao did not have a deep relationship and were a loving couple, their lives were good at the beginning.
Although Mrs. Tao cared about her mother's family and her brother's family, Uncle Meng didn't care about that. After all, he felt that his life was saved by his father-in-law, and he would help himself. What's more, he is away from home all year round, and there are no elders in the family. Mrs. Tao cannot help but ask her mother's family to take more care of him.
She was newly married and unfamiliar with herself, so it was normal for her to be close to her natal family.
Life was going smoothly, and Uncle Meng was very satisfied. Unexpectedly, one day, his father-in-law's attitude towards him suddenly became cold.
"I didn't understand it at first, and I didn't know the reason until a few days ago. After listening to the old escort, my father-in-law always thought that my family's treasures were precious gold and silver jewelry. After I got married to you, he left the key Right click and realize that the so-called treasure is just a sword."
"This sword is called Xuanyuan Sword. Xuanyuan Sword is a legendary magic weapon. It is said that those who get it are like divine help."
Of course, these are legends, and the sword is indeed a good sword, but the legendary color attached to it is completely fabricated by others. But for those who believe, this sword is the shortcut to success.
"The sword was obtained accidentally by my grandfather. The Meng family cherished the Xuanyuan Sword very much, but my father-in-law was not a martial artist and did not know much about weapons. In his heart, the Xuanyuan Sword was no different from scissors and kitchen knives. No matter how sharp it is, a sword cannot be as good as a few swords. The two pieces of silver came really well. He was very disappointed and tried his best to save me and marry his daughter to me. He thought he would get huge wealth, but he failed to achieve anything."
Of course, such emotions do not last long.
Although Tao's father did not get the treasure, the Meng's Escort Bureau gave the Tao family a lot of help. After Tao's father tactfully expressed that he wanted to buy a small house in the county, and Uncle Meng happily said that he would pay for it, Tao's father regained 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 will have to marry a farmer from a 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 brother may not come back even once a year. Uncle Meng is in charge of the entire escort agency.
Tao's father enjoyed his son-in-law's filial piety very much, but the good times did not last long. The old man's health began to deteriorate and he died soon after.
Before his death, he repeatedly told Uncle Meng to take good care of the Tao family, and the Tao family relied on him.
"Since then, you Tao family have been mentioning my father-in-law's life-saving grace in my ears, as if I were afraid that I would forget it because of my father-in-law's death. In fact, you don't need to. I, Meng Kuan, always do what I say, not to mention , Your family is my family. As long as it doesn’t violate the principles, I will naturally help if I can."
"Now that I think about it, I made a mistake. That's not how you help. Two families are two families. I treat him as my brother, but he treats me as a fool."
With that said, Uncle Meng raised his head and looked at Mrs. Zhang.
"That day, the bandits broke into Tao's house. They originally wanted to kill Tao Feili, right? Why did they suddenly change their minds and take him away? Was it because my brother-in-law diverted trouble to the east and said that my family had a Xuanyuan Sword?"
Everyone suddenly turned their heads and looked at Mrs. Zhang. Mrs. Tao's body was even more shaky. The incredible information that Uncle Meng said hit her brain one after another.
