Chapter Forty-Nine: I Want It Too

The two of them went to the upper room, and when they entered the house, they were shocked, and none of them went to cut rice?

As soon as he entered the house, Ma said: "Second brother, go down to the field with your father and them to cut rice." When Ma saw Xuan Miao'er behind Xuan Wenjiang, he felt that something was wrong.

Xuan Wenjiang found a place to sit down: "I have to take care of my eldest brother, I can't go to the ground, it's all sun, you should hurry up and go to the rice field, otherwise it will affect the harvest." ”

Xuan Miaoer sat beside Xuan Wenjiang and felt that the second uncle was very powerful.

Ma's eyebrows twitched: "You and Erlang go down to the field to cut rice, let the third and fifth go to serve the boss, it is said that the boss is injured is the fault of the third child, he should serve, and the fifth can also help." ”

"No need, there are a lot of people who serve the eldest brother and say, Li Langzhong taught us all night yesterday, and this is something that people can't take care of. Xuan Wenjiang didn't intend to compromise, and his tone was very firm.

"Then let Erlang stay at home and teach the third child, you follow your father and them to the ground, don't waste time." "Ma Shi retreated to the next best, at least he had to fool the most capable Xuanwenjiang.

"Yes, it's not early, you should go to the ground, I said I want to take care of my eldest brother. "Xuan Wenjiang didn't discuss with Ma at all.

Xuan Miao'er said with a smile: "Grandmother, Li Langzhong said that my father lost his body this time, he bled too much, and the knife wound also hurt the bones, so he must be mended, let us make soup for my father with big bones every day, and my mother was excited to give birth prematurely because of my father's injury, and the mother-in-law who delivered the baby said that she would eat a few hens to make up for it, and I came to ask my grandmother for money, so that the second uncle could go to the town to buy it later." ”

Xuan Wenjiang knew that this niece came with him for a purpose, and he couldn't help but feel like laughing.

Ma Shi heard that it was all about asking for money, which was more difficult than working in the field: "The boss is just a flesh wound, none of our croppers have a scratch, your mother gave birth to five, isn't this good, I see that she was born so quickly yesterday, it should be fine, that Wang Pozi loves to say to Yan zhòng, it seems that her delivery skills are good." ”

Xuan Miao'er now wants to applaud Ma's, anything can change in her mouth: "Grandmother, this is what Langzhong and the midwife said, and I didn't make it up, Li Langzhong has an identity in our Hewan Village, he will lie to us? My mother was born a month prematurely, and she really hurt her vitality, and she can't stand up now, if she doesn't take care of it well, it is estimated that she will have to be a big confinement." ”

The big confinement is two months, see if Ma is in a hurry?

"We croppers, how can we be a big confinement, your mother is in good health, not so delicate. The fourth aunt Wang was reluctant first, and without waiting for Ma to speak, she hurriedly stood up.

Because then I have a lot of work, especially I have to wash the clothes of the old and the young.

"Isn't this my mother's loss of body? If you don't make it up, you will be weak and unable to work in the future, so it will be worse. "Xuan Miao'er said that the head is the Tao.

Xuan Wenjiang wanted to laugh when he heard it, this niece is a little fox. None of the people in the room knew how to refute it.

Seeing that no one was talking, Xuan Miao'er said to Old Man Xuan: "Grandfather, my father has shed so much blood and touched bones, you haven't seen it, you really have to make up for it, Li Langzhong said that if you can't raise it well, you can't do heavy work in the future, and you can't go to the ground." ”

She knew that her mother's life and death were not very important to the family, but Xuan Wentao was also the son of Old Man Xuan, and he was one of the main laborers in this family.

Old Man Xuan usually doesn't care about the accounts, he doesn't know how much money there is in the family, thinking about what Xuan Miaoer said also makes sense, if Xuan Wentao can't work, who will do the work in the future of this family? It's not realistic to expect the second child.

"Old woman, take two taels of silver for the second child, and ask him to buy some meat for the eldest to make up for it. Old Man Xuan looked at Ma Shi Dao.

"Two taels, you black-hearted old man, why don't you chop me up and sell meat, how can our family have so much silver? Last time, the dead girl jumped into the river and took one tael, and yesterday she gave Li Langzhong seven hangings, and Mrs. Wang gave thirty wen to deliver the baby, and this grain has not been harvested yet? How can there be money?" After Ma finished speaking, he waited fiercely at Xuan Miao'er.

Xuan Miao'er pretended not to see it, and looked at Old Man Xuan: "Grandfather, I jumped into the river, my father was injured, and my mother was born prematurely, what is going on, we know in our hearts, it's not too much to make up for them, right?"

Old Man Xuan began his infinite entanglement again, he really didn't know how much silver there was in the family, but he knew that no matter how poor the family was, there would be spare money, and now the Ma family didn't want to take it.

On one side is the son, on the other side is the wife, do you give it or not?

Xuan Miao'er looked at Old Man Xuan and knew that he was entangled again, but she didn't mind, because her father and mother had eaten, and they had nothing else to do today.

Ma's is also in chaos now, isn't her original intention to let Xuan Wenjiang and Xuan Anrui go to the field to cut rice?

The four-room two-person family doesn't mind consuming it, anyway, if they go to the ground now, the work is done by their family, and now the main labor force left is Xuan Wenxin and Dalang, so they don't want to go to the ground.

The five rooms don't go to the ground, you can't say much at this time, otherwise it's not worth it to get angry.

After being quiet like this for a while, Xuan Miao'er was a little sleepy and dozed off with her head down. Xuanwenjiang was more comfortable, holding the wood carving pendant in his hand and began to polish.

In the end, Old Man Xuan looked at the sun too high, and if he didn't go to the ground, it would be wasted today: "Give the eldest one or two pieces of silver to make up for his body, and the second one will go back to take care of it, and the rest of the people will go down to the ground with me." ”

Because the old man Xuan also saw it, this Xuan Miaoer didn't give up if he didn't get the silver, not to mention that the village knew that the third son hurt the eldest son, this is not good, if the boss is raised well, it is also a family harmony to the outside, he is a face-saving person, how can he lose face?

Ma Shi heard that his heart seemed to be cut with a knife, one or two silver, yesterday seven hangs thirty wen, and then one tael, generally doing long-term work for a month only four hangs of money, one two seven hang thirty wen, it cost her life.

The last time I gave it to Xuan Miao'er was because the girl looked dead at that time, and she was also scared, but now it's all good, let her take it out and hang thirty Wen, she can't wait to bite Xuan Miao'er to death.

Xuan Miaoer knew that Li Langzhong's medical expenses were higher yesterday because Li Langzhong added some tonic medicine to Xuan Wentao's internal medicine, even if the tonic was cheaper, it would not be too little, and she really couldn't have less to hang seven times, she remembered all this.

Ma Shi took out the key from his waist again, then moved to the kang cabinet, took out the wooden box, and then took out five hangings of money and threw it over: "That's all left." ”

Xuan Miaoer wanted to say: You open the box and I'll take a look, and then think about it, it's not really going to quarrel, what I expected has been achieved, that's okay, don't anger Ma, I can't get it at all.

Xuan Wenjiang took the money and said to Old Man Xuan, "Thank you, Dad." He ignored Ma and called Xuan Miaoer back to the West Wing.
