Chapter 39

Orange can stand there, watching Wansu riding red horse farther and farther, scared Leng. This large piece of silver is worth a lot of money, isn't it? Holding the piece of silver in her palm, she accumulated a layer of sweat, wet and hot.

Is hair Leng, autumn pear's voice rang up: "three younger sister, three younger sister? Where are you? " Seeing that no one answered, Qiuli's voice became more and more urgent: "third sister? Third sister And Li Qing said: "aunt, where did you say the third sister went? Isn't it in the water again? "

Li Qing said, "what are you talking about? It's far away from Taohua river! This stream can't even submerge the steamed buns, let alone your three younger sisters? "

But orange heard the voice, ran out of the bamboo forest and yelled at them: "I'm here!"

Qiuli put her heart down and asked, "what did you do? It's a walk. How can you walk for most of the day? "

But orange was thinking about telling them about Wan su. When she heard Qiu Li's words, she said, "someone just passed I had a few words with him. So it's a waste of time. "

Qiuli asked: "who is it?"

Orange decided to tell the truth, after all, such a large piece of silver can not be hidden. He made up his mind, but orange said, "it's just a boy. Why don't we go home? Later, grandma will be looking for her. "

Li Qing said with a smile: "your grandmother has already looked for it. All the steamed buns have gone back. You disappeared, we can't tell Grandma, had to shout Qiuli hide, said Qiuli and you went to other places to play. Fortunately, she didn't study deeply. She took the steamed buns back to wash their hands and eat. Then she and Qiuli came to see you. "

They walked slowly back to grandma's house.

After dinner, Ke Cheng pulls Qiuli, Xiaoyi and grandma into Li Qing's room.

Grandma said with a smile, "orange, you are so mysterious. What do you want to do?"

But orange took out the heavy and shining silver from her arms, put it in her palm, opened it and said, "look at it."

The crowd was startled and breathed out: "where did you get so much money?"

Can orange busy will Wansu thing said.

Grandma was surprised and afraid, and said, "do you still have abductors in your village? This money The boy surnamed wan Who is it? "

But orange shook his head and said, "I don't know where he comes from. All I know is that his name is Wansu. He is about thirteen years old, riding a jujube horse

Qiuli stares at her and says, "you're not a worry girl! Don't you dare to take other people's money? "

But orange said wrongly, "it's not what I asked him for. What can I do if he shoves it to me? "

Li Qing put his arms around Ke Cheng and said, "orange, don't be afraid of two tigers. Come on, auntie, I love you Then he asked her, "what are you going to do with this silver?"

Grandma took a look at Li Qing and said angrily, "this is an orange given by someone else. Do you want to? It's for oranges, of course. "

Li Qing pursed her lips and said, "mother, why do I want so much money?" Then he picked up the silver from Ke Cheng's palm, weighed it over and said, "there are at least five Liang here! Tut Tut, orange, you have become a little rich woman

But orange thought: "five Liang silver will become a little rich woman?" He asked, "is five Liang silver a lot?"

Qiuli knew that the silver was valuable, but she didn't know how much it was. She looked at grandma and asked, "grandma, my mother's monthly salary is about 500 Wen. How much is the five Liang silver worth, five hundred Wen? "

Grandma said, "one or two silver and one thousand Wen. Five Liang silver is five thousand Wen. It's ten months for your mother! How much do you say? "

Autumn pear can orange two slightly grew up mouth, a word can't export.

After a while, Qiuli murmured: "huge sum of money!"

Li Qing turned his eyes and said, "you have to tighten the money. Don't let your Grandma see it! Otherwise, there will be no residue left for you at that time! "

The autumn pear hears speech then worried way: "how to close? Where is the tightening? There are only three feet in the house. Besides, grandma will search the room! Is it difficult to dig a hole and bury it? "

But orange boy thought about it carefully, and said simply: "grandma, how about this?"

Grandmother asked: "how?"

But orange said: "I heard my aunt say that the roof of the mill is leaking, and the ground is full of potholes. She said that Wai just is going to ask a bricklayer to repair it. Is that right? "

Grandma nodded and said, "exactly. I'm afraid the money is not enough, so I shelved it."

But orange asked, "how much is the difference?"

Grandma said: "although this small mill has been open for twelve or thirteen years. But since your mother got married, she has married two daughters-in-law in a row and had four children. This is the dowry and the engagement ceremony... " After taking a look at Li Qing, he held back his words and said, "what's more, I've run out of my savings in these years. Your grandfather wanted to expand the mill, but he didn't have enough money, so he shelved it. As for how much it will cost - at least ten taels of silver for expansion and renovation! "

Can orange ask again: "how much money does that grandfather have on hand?" The grandmother said, "it's only six Liang silver. Some of them are preparation - "he took a look at Li Qing and said nothing.Orange can guess the use of other money, must be to prepare a dowry for 16-year-old aunt Bai! But my aunt was thin skinned, and my grandmother didn't say it. But orange pretended not to know, just a little smile, said: "this five Liang silver, grandma take to the outside public good!"

Grandma said quickly, "how can this make you happy! Your family is so poor, take it back and improve your life

Qiuli guessed Ke Cheng's idea and said, "grandma, you can use it. If she knows about the existence of the money, she will certainly deduct it. At that time, we can't use it. Just my second aunt's mouth, I know that Cheng pingbai got five Liang silver, and I can't say anything nice! It's more serious to give it to the public! "

But orange and Qiuli slapped and said, "second sister knows what I mean!" Then he looked at his grandmother and said, "the second sister is right. Take it for public use! "

Grandma said, "except for the six taels of silver to repair the mill. I also saved several taels of silver. I was thinking of Qing'er Wan'er's half of the money -- "

Qiuli said quickly," it's just a dowry for my aunt. What else can I do with half of my mother? "

Li Qing heard the word "dowry", a pink face blushed with shame, scolded: "dead Qiuli! You buy the dowry! " Make a gesture and hit Qiuli.

Qiuli is busy hiding behind her grandmother.

Grandma glared at Li Qing. Li Qing did not dare to make a mistake and had to sit down.

Grandma sighed: "I'm ashamed of your mother! I can't tell. If it hadn't delayed your mother, would your mother have married your father, and then spread out such a mother-in-law and aunt? I think it's all our fault. I've always regretted it in my heart, so I thought that when you split up your family in the future, I'll give your mother the money I saved. "

But orange had heard her aunt say it at noon. Knowing that grandma's heart knot could not be changed for a while, she said, "grandma. My mother is OK! Although my grandmother is a little evil and my second aunt is a little poisonous, my father is still good. And our three sisters are also in the same camp with my mother, so my mother's life is not sad. Besides, if grandma didn't marry my mother to my father, there wouldn't be three of us! Grandma would not have such a clever third granddaughter as I am! "

A word coax the depressed Yousi of the corner of grandmother's eye brow all disappeared, smile tears all came out, say: "you this child! This little mouth is beeping. I can't even say you! It's not enough to have Qiuli in your family, plus you - it's really lively after that! It's really different after a fall! "

But orange saw grandma smile, he also laughed, quickly put the silver into Grandma's hand, said: "you take it! I'm out to play Then I will go out with Qiuli.

Grandma quickly grabbed her and said, "it's rare for you to be filial. Well, your grandfather and I will use the five taels of silver for the time being. After the mill is repaired, you will get the bonus in the future! "

But orange waved his hand and said, "no, no! I'm a child. Why do I need a bonus? Besides, my uncles and aunts, they will talk about me when they know! "
