Mrs. Zhang's face sank, and immediately began to curse: "I have fart silver. All the silver you gave me was given to the long-term scholar. Where can I have money? I've worked so hard to bring you up. Even if I'm not filial, I'm still thinking about my silver. Why is my life so hard! "
The Song family is headed by Mrs. Zhang. She usually takes money as her life. Before that, she had to give a lot of money to song Changyuan to dredge up. Later, she was unwilling to give any more money.
"Mother, are we not helpless? The more than two liang of silver in the hands of the head of the family is still the money he paid to help the workers in the past two months, plus the money for selling sweet potatoes. " Zhang Cuihua didn't know that Mrs. Zhang still had some silver. "For a long-term event, you'll take out the silver first, and we'll pay you back when we have it later."
"No! I said I gave it to you last time. " Pointing to Zhang Cuihua's nose, Mrs. Zhang scolded: "don't think I don't know that you usually hide silver in private, buy meat secretly, and take it out quickly!"
Looking at the quarrel between his grandmother and his mother, song Changyuan looks contemptuous. If she is a peasant woman, she is vulgar, but because she is learning to be a gentleman and filial piety, she can't say anything. "Grandma, mother, I still have half of the money here. Take it."
Then he took out a light green purse and handed it out: "it's all earned by copying books in the Academy. You should use it first."
Mrs. Zhang took the silver and bumped her purse. She was quite satisfied with it. "In addition, there are four liang of silver that Dajiang brought back today, which is a little less."
After that, he took a look at the yard, and then yelled to his grandson's room, "Chang GUI's daughter-in-law, please come out quickly!"
Li Shi, the daughter-in-law of Changgui, who had been hiding in the room, scolded secretly, then changed into a smiling face and went out: "ah Nai, do you call me? I'm all asleep, and I can hear it vaguely.... "
Mrs. Zhang glared at Li with discontent: "I've been lazy all day. If I don't do any work, I know how to sleep. I'm so lazy."
"Ah Nai, I'm pregnant." Li touched his stomach, and then said with a smile: "Changgui is not at home, no one to take care of me, this dark, I dare not walk around outside, in case of falling how to do."
Mrs. Zhang also wanted to curse, but after listening to Li's words, the curse was stuck in her throat and she couldn't get out. She pursed her mouth discontentedly and said, "if you win the long-term exam, you should do something about it."
"Well, it's a great joy for the second younger brother to be a scholar in the exam. It's time to do it." I don't know what Li pretended to be.
"That's what we mean, too. But if you don't make up your money now, you can move your dowry out a little bit. After long-term development, you will never forget you." Zhang said.
Li's face is not good-looking at all of a sudden. It's too ugly for you to eat, dead woman. You don't pretend to do it in a roundabout way. "Ah Nai, do it for my second brother. I agree. As for borrowing money... But it's my parents' dowry. I have to ask my parents what they mean."
People's faces are not good-looking, really go to ask, others don't know how to arrange their coveted daughter-in-law's dowry, song Dajiang waved his hand and said: "forget it, or don't disturb their parents."
Li's ha ha sneers, "that is to do money for the second younger brother, can't get together soon?"
Song Dajiang sighed and sat down on the steps under the eaves.
Zhang Cuihua is in a bad mood. "Now it's only four Liang silver. What should I do? If you don't want to be your daughter-in-law, move out first... "
Li didn't say anything. Seeing that several people were staring at her and thinking about her dowry, she gave a cold smile, and then said, "ah Nai, Niang, we don't have any money, but the third uncle's family has some money. We can ask them for some."
The third uncle is the father of song Xintong, song Dashan.
Zhang's mother-in-law pulled up her face and said, "what do you do for those broom stars? They are special for conquering people."
Li can't see that Mrs. Zhang envies people's money. It's just that they don't pay for it. "Ah Nai, in order to make the second younger brother look better, let's go and get it. Later, we'll invite a Taoist to drive away evil. We're not afraid that she will conquer our family."
Mrs. Zhang was obviously moved, just sipping her mouth.
Zhang Cuihua said, "but we have nothing to do with the sweepers of the Song family. Can she give us money?"
"I didn't do business before, but I don't think I will do it in the future." Li looked at Song Changyuan with a smile: "the second younger brother is a scholar now, and he will be a senior official in the future. If they don't flatter him a little, it won't do them any good in the future. As long as they know the current affairs, they may be willing to give us hundreds of thousands of taels of silver. "
Being reminded by the Li family, Zhang Cuihua, Zhang Bozi and song Qingxiu were immediately moved. They all had a picture of how they would enjoy if they had a thousand taels of silver.
"Well, tomorrow." Zhang Cuihua smiles and squints at Li Shi, "still the brain turns fast."
Li Shi embarrassed of smile smile, "thank Niang to praise."
Hum, Xianggong worked outside all day. All the money he got back went into the dead old woman's purse. She didn't get a cent. The most exasperating thing is that the old woman gave all the silver to her second brother. Hum, it's really eccentric.
You can go to the Song family. It's not easy to get into trouble. I hope they can give you a long memory. It deserves it.
"Ah Nai, Niang, if it's OK, I'll go back to the house first, and the baby in my stomach will be in a panic." Li said.
"Go back." Zhang Cuihua was very happy. She turned to discuss with Mrs. Zhang about asking for money tomorrow. "Niang, you have to ask for more money tomorrow. Song Xintong, the sweeper, runs a shop and a workshop. He must have hundreds of thousands of taels of silver."
Zhang Niangzi glared at Zhang Cuihua, "I don't know. I need you to remind me?"
Song Xintong, who is sitting on the bed making clothes, suddenly sneezes.
"But by the river? Is it cold? " Lu Yunkai hurried to the bedside and asked anxiously, "what's wrong?"
"Nothing." Song Xintong rubbed his nose, "it is estimated that there is dust in his nose."
Lu Yunkai looked at it carefully, and after confirming that she had not lied, he was relieved: "if there is nothing wrong, you must tell me."
"I see." Song Xintong smiles and plans to continue to make clothes, but Lu Yunkai takes them away before she starts. She looks up at him suspiciously: "what are you doing? Give it to me. I haven't finished it yet. "
"Dim light hurts the eyes." Lu Yunkai put the basket aside, and then urged her to lie down and go to bed: "it's late, have a rest early."
Song Xintong looked at the hourglass on the table. It's just the end of Xu Shi. Modern time is less than nine o'clock. How can he sleep so early. What's more, time flies so slowly, there's nothing to kill time, and it's boring to lie down.
Song Xintong's eyes dribbled around, then patted the position beside him: "it's too early. I can't sleep. Would you like to talk with me?"
