Wu Shun looked at his daughter-in-law disapprovingly: "Since you know these things, why don't you tell me?"

His daughter-in-law put the things on the table angrily: "What can I do? The eldest brother is not at home, can we quarrel with the eldest sister-in-law or what?" and I didn't dare to write to the eldest brother, for fear that the eldest brother would know that he was in a hurry, so I thought about waiting for the eldest brother to come back and talk about these things, who knew that it would take so long. ”

Wu Ping heard Wu Shun's daughter-in-law say these things, and his heart became more and more angry.

He pursed his lips, his chin line tightened, and his expression was very stern.

Wu Shun hurriedly explained: "Xu is sister-in-law is thrifty, and she wants to save more money so that her eldest brother can do business." ”

Although he explained this, neither he nor Wu Ping believed it.

Wu Ping took a deep breath and slowed down for a while before asking Wu Shun, "What is the situation of the Cui family?"

Wu Shun knew that this was asking Nier and her uncle Cui Zhiren.

"The Cui family is okay, Cui Zhiren entered the school to study, this time it seems that he has to participate in some scientific examination, it seems that the county has tried it, and he is preparing for the government examination. ”

Wu Shun's daughter-in-law said: "Cui Zhiren is okay to study, this time he won the third place in the county exam, and my sister-in-law specially took something to Cui's house to thank her." ”

After Wu Ping heard this, his mood became more complicated.

He knows what the situation of the Cui family is.

The Cui family is lazy, the Cui family is also very poor, before he left home to do business, the Cui family was poor and couldn't even eat, why did he go for so many years, the Cui family made a fortune, and he could let Cui Zhiren study?

I want to know where the money came from.

It's nothing more than the Cui family saving their own money to help their mother's brother.

Wu Ping couldn't sit down anymore after he figured it out, so he put his things down and said to Wu Shun: "I have to go back and see first, if it's ......"

He looked at Wu Shun and said, "If your sister-in-law really can't carry it, then I will divorce my wife, and I will have to help me at that time." ”

"Divorce your wife?"

Wu Shun was taken aback: "Big brother, what should I do if I divorce my sister-in-law's children?" The two children have to be taken care of, if you marry another one, it is not the same heart with the child, and you don't have to worry about it if you go out......."

Wu Ping said coldly: "I don't plan to marry again, Nier is also older and can take care of her brother, besides, I want to take the two children out." ”

As soon as Wu Shun saw that Wu Ping seemed to have made up his mind, he didn't say anything more.

Wu Shun's daughter-in-law persuaded again: "Big brother, be cautious, don't do anything else, just because your sister-in-law gave birth to two children, you can't easily say divorce." ”

Wu Ping sneered: "If she just helped her mother's brother, I would have endured it, but she actually wanted to sell Nier and want Nier's life, I can't tolerate this." ”

"What did the eldest brother say? ”

Wu Shun and his family were shocked.

Wu Ping then told the things he saw in the county seat: "What kind of family is the Zheng family, all the people in Qingyuan County know, as long as you inquire a little, you can understand, Cui Zhiren is studying in the county, I don't believe he doesn't know these things, but he just asked Nier to marry a person who is sick and dying for the high bride price given by the Zheng family, and the Cui family is still up to him, you say, can this not make me chill, I can't tolerate such a person anymore." ”

Wu Shun opened his mouth and stammered.

He is an honest man, he only thinks that Cui Zhiren is Nier's uncle, and he should not be wrong with the relatives he found for Nier, but he didn't expect that there would be such a thing in it.

"Big brother, it's my fault for this, I didn't inquire clearly. ”

Wu Ping waved his hand: "This is their intention to harm people, what time can you prevent it." ”

Speaking of this, Wu Ping rubbed his eyes sadly: "Cui Zhiren is a poisonous snake, I don't dare to get along with him anymore, since Cui thinks that her brother is more important than her children, let's go back to my parents' house." ”

Wu Shun and his wife sent Wu Ping away, and Wu Shun's daughter-in-law said to Wu Shun: "What do you think about the sister-in-law? She is blinded by lard, how can she do such a thing, brothers are relatives, but how can they kiss their own children, and those who will support her in the future are children, and her brother can manage her old age and send her up to the mountain?"

Wu Shun sighed: "No wonder people say that marrying a good wife and three generations of Wang, it's really good, sister-in-law like this, doesn't it almost ruin the eldest brother's family business." ”

Thinking that Wu Ping's hard-earned money outside was not used for his children, but instead cheapened the group of vampires of the Cui family, Wu Shun was also a little angry.

Wu Ping returned home before dark.

He stood in the doorway and looked at the crumbling houses, and couldn't help but sigh.

He was ruthless, tore a few holes in the clothes on his body, and got some dirt on the ground and wiped it on his face, which made him very embarrassed, and then he stepped forward and knocked on the door.

A teenage girl opened the door and looked at Wu Ping curiously: "Are you ...... Who are you looking for?"

"Ni?" Wu Ping looked at the little girl, and could still see what she looked like when she was a child: "You are Nier, I am your father." ”

"Daddy?"

When Wu Ping left, Wu Nier had already remembered, she looked at Wu Ping carefully, but recognized it: "Dad, you...... You're back. ”

She turned her head and shouted into the house, "Mother, my father is back." ”

Cui was doing needlework in the house, and as soon as she heard Wu Nier calling her, she hurriedly ran out.

When he arrived at the door and saw Wu Ping, Cui's tears came out: "Dang, in charge, you are back." ”

Wu Ping's face was a little bad.

He saw the dishes on Wu Nier and Cui's faces, these two people were thin, they were empty after putting on their clothes, and they looked at the exposed wrists as thin as hemp sticks, and they couldn't eat enough to be hungry.

He got back so much money, not to mention big fish and meat, every meal of white rice is enough for this mother to eat, in addition, he can cut new clothes for them every season, and he can buy a few sets of decent jewelry for Cui's family, and the remaining money can build a few good houses, or buy a few acres of land.

But what about Cui's life?

Wu Ping ignored Cui's and pulled Wu Nier to the house.

Choi hurriedly followed.

Wu Ping entered the house and said to Cui's: "I went to the West to buy something this time, but when I encountered wind and waves at sea, everything was thrown into the sea, and I was penniless, so I borrowed the owner's money to go home." ”

Cui Shi cried again when he heard this, and stammered: "People, it's okay if people are fine." ”

Wu Nier also cried: "Dad, have you been hurt, it's so bitter and dangerous outside, we won't go out in the future, and my brother and I will do more work to support you in the future." ”

Looking at the disappointed look in Cui's eyes, as well as Wu Ni's sincere care, Wu Ping's mood was even more complicated.

There is no one in the heart of this pillow person, there is only the money he earns.

Wu Ping's heart was cold for a while.

He asked Cui, "Do you still have any money at home?" If you give me some money, I have to pay back the owner." ”

Cui's eyes dodged: "No, no." ”

"What?"

Wu Ping slapped the table and stood up: "Why is there no money?"

Wu Nier looked at Cui's with a pair of big eyes, and then looked at Wu Ping, she carefully tugged at Wu Ping's clothes: "Dad, my mother has been doing embroidery to support us all these years, my mother's embroidery is slow, and we can't sell it for a few dollars, we really haven't saved any silver." ”

Wu Ping took a deep breath.

He understood that this Cui family even hid his children, and he didn't say anything about him bringing money back.

Wu Ping patted Wu Ni's head: "Nier, my father has brought money back every year over the years, and my father earned more in the first two years, so he took a little more, and I want your mother to use this money to repair our family's house, and buy a few acres of land, Dad looked at the house and didn't repair it, there must be a lot of money left." ”

Wu Nier blinked: "Dad, how much money did you bring back?"

Wu Ping's voice was much softer: "Dad didn't earn much money in the first year, so he brought back two taels, earned money in the second year, and brought back more than 20 taels of silver, and in the third and fourth years, he brought back 50 or 60 taels of silver every year, and last year he brought back more than 100 taels." ”

Wu Nier pinched her fingers and counted, but she didn't know how much money she had.

However, she knew that the money was a lot, enough for their family to live a good life.

She looked at Cui's: "Mother, you must have saved so much money, you should quickly take it out and give it to your father, it's not good to owe money to others." ”
