Oh, and the leftover money from his family's savings and the fourteen yuan that Shen's second grandfather bought clothes, Qi Shufang almost forgot about these two.

The money spent in Shanghai has accounts to follow, and her family's savings should be one hundred and ten yuan left, He Jianguo knows the amount of this money in her heart, but she quietly bought a watch.

After Aunt Ma left angrily, He Jianguo asked, and counted, the two sums of money together amounted to more than 100, enough to borrow.

Qi Shufang went out and saw that there was no one at the door, so she mysteriously dragged He Jianguo to the bedroom, and then took out the box containing the watch and held it to him, "I bought you a watch, imported Inag, one hundred and eighty-eight! She added in her heart that she wasn't lying, and the other five hundred was her private money.

"What's more, Yanling's sister-in-law is better, but Aunt Ma's reputation is not very good. I heard my sister-in-law say that in the past, Aunt Ma asked my eldest brother and sister-in-law to borrow 20 catties of dried sweet potatoes with a dead face, but she didn't pay them back for five years. Every time my sister-in-law went to ask for it, she splashed and rolled, saying that her sister-in-law was inhumane, and as a family member of a cadre, she had no sympathy and pity for the members. The sister-in-law had a fight with her, and the sister-in-law was so sharp that she couldn't lift Uncle Ma's face before she returned it. ”

Don't say that she doesn't have money in her hands on the surface, even if she has money, she won't borrow!

Nowadays, you can buy everything with a ticket, and most people don't buy anything that you can buy without a ticket.

Aunt Ma said that it was for marrying a daughter-in-law, but who didn't know that their family had already hired Shen Lingling's family, and the bride price was sixty-six yuan and one hundred catties of cornmeal. The Ma family is from outside, except for Ma Yanling, who is her own daughter, who may get more than ten yuan, and other limited relatives can give a gift of two yuan, in this case, their family can receive a hundred yuan of gift money?

It's not that she's stingy, it's that she feels that borrowing money must be moderate.

is really to the point of desperation to borrow money, she will definitely take out her private money to help, without shirk. However, the Ma family obviously does not have to borrow, the Ma family's life is good, if the conditions are poor, how can Shen Erdan, who is as shrewd as Shen Erdan, agree to this family business? Shen Lingling, who can make Shen Yaowu suffer, is also a shrewd person.

The Ma family refuses to pay back even twenty catties of dried sweet potatoes, can they pay back a hundred yuan neatly?

Qi Shufang thinks it's impossible, if she uses malicious speculation to collect debts by herself, the Ma family is likely to push back.

He Jianguo didn't care about the affairs of Ma Da Niang's family, and he mainly focused on his wife's intentions, so he looked at the watch in front of him and said in surprise: "When did you buy it? Why don't I know? What are you buying this for, it's a waste of money!"

"I have, you don't, what's the matter? You buy me a watch, I'll buy it for you, and you don't have to worry about being late for work in the future." Qi Shufang didn't feel like a waste at all, "I'll keep this watch first, don't wear it at home, wear it when you go out, and leave the new clothes, so that others won't see the red eyes, and when you come back tomorrow, you will say that you bought it outside." Qi Shufang thought it through.

"You......" He Jianguo didn't know how to describe the emotion in his heart.

The relationship goes one step further, and it is natural to turn the phoenix upside down every day.

Qi Shufang, who was moisturized, went out, radiant, and smiled when she met people, but when she heard the gossip that Aunt Ma said that she had money to squander but refused to lend her money when she went to work, her mood was not so good.

If Aunt Ma thought that she couldn't bear the gossip and lent her money, it would be a mistake.

"Shufang, what about the founding of the country?"

Qi Shufang stopped, turned his head to look at He Jiandang, and said with a smile: "Does the eldest brother have anything to do with Jianguo?" Jianguo rubbed hemp rope and thatched at home, saying that there was a lot of rain in spring and summer, and the roof of our house was not renovated last year, and this year he wanted to repair the roof before leaving. ”

Of course, she wouldn't say that she was tired of He Jianguo last night, and he was still resting when she went out!

He Jianguo has been away for many years, and she wants to have a child, but she doesn't know if she can win the bid. In her life planning, she thought about having a child in two years, taking the college entrance examination to go to college seven years later, and sending the child to school in advance, so she didn't have to watch it every day.

However, repairing the roof was indeed proposed by He Jianguo last night.

He Jiandang snorted, "I'm just asking." He didn't see He Jianguo today, thinking that he had gone to find Professor Jin, but he walked around the cowshed a few times, only to see Professor Jin helping with the grass in the cowshed, and Granny Jin had a hemp rope tied around her waist to connect Professor Jin's waist, except for Ma Tianlong and Chen Sanchuan, no one cared about them.

"Oh. ”

Qi Shufang was extremely smart, and when she saw Professor Jin and Granny Jin, she quickly understood what He Jiandang was thinking.

Since He Jiandang confessed that his husband and wife were not allowed to associate with Professor Jin, she and He Jianguo had never said a word to Professor Jin in front of others, and every day after dinner, they took the opportunity to take a walk to eat and secretly put a piece of food into the hut. In the past few days, she has tried to cook food for them, such as multigrain steamed buns with fillings, meat buns, vegetable pancakes, etc.

With the help of Professor Jin and Chen Sanchuan and Ma Tianlong, the cowshed is by the river, which is convenient for the cows, horses and mules to drink water and wash themselves.

They are now eating together.

Professor Jin's legs were broken, Granny Jin was crazy, she could only do some grass and basket weaving, and she mainly relied on Chen Sanchuan and Ma Tianlong to feed the three animals, which was equivalent to the Helou brigade raising the two of them for nothing. He Jiandang regretted more and more that he had agreed to his brother's plea, but he could no longer return it, so he could only comfort himself that he had done less work, that he had less work to remember, and that he would have limited food in the future.

The more He Jiandang thought about it, the more angry he became, glared at Chen Jinma and a few people hatefully, shook his hand and walked away.

Qi Shufang stuck out her tongue, even if there was no one around, she didn't talk to Professor Jin, regardless of Granny Jin's action of reaching out to her and calling Niuniu and her face full of desire, she turned around and left directly.

You can't turn back, you can't be soft-hearted......

"My old horse is a rough man, born as a bitter child, he has traveled south and north for half of his life, he has killed people, enjoyed happiness, been rich and noble, has been down, has done good things, and has done bad things, but I didn't expect his wife to be separated in his later years, but he lived in the cowshed with the two of you Swenwen scholars. Ma Tianlong took the shovel and shoveled the forage into the stone trough, and smiled at Professor Jin and Chen Sanchuan.

Chen Sanchuan sighed, "I didn't expect Sven to be with you for the rest of his life." ”

"You old man just can't put it on the shelf, when is this coming, look at Lao Jin, you can think about it. Ma Tianlong laughed at him, and gossiped while no one was talking, "Lao Jin, is that person named Jianguo your student?"

Professor Jin smiled and didn't speak, Ma Tianlong patted his head, "Look at me, I'm confused, why do you ask that, how many teachers and students have turned against each other, and a good relationship must be unlucky." But the baby is very good, righteous enough, my old horse has not tasted meat for several years, thanks to the blessing of his two people, I ate two full meals on the train. "On the bright side, there are leftovers, and they all know the richness of the meal.

Professor Jin appeased a wife who was thinking about Niuniu and wanted to run after Qi Shufang, but there was still no interface.

Shoveling all the forage into the stone trough, Ma Tianlong squatted at the door to bask in the sun, squinting his eyes, a little drowsy, "Spring sleepy, autumn and summer nap, before liberation, I was wearing a newly made long robe, lying on the Luohan couch and listening to the little operas singing!"

The gang he belonged to had a very high status in old Shanghai, and even government officials did not dare not give face.

He has two wives and six concubines in his life, there are beautiful ladies, there are small jasper, there are also Qinglou women, pear garden operas, song hall dancers, some are married by the Ming media, and some are forcibly robbed. He had seven sons and six daughters, some died young, some were still alive, some participated in the Anti-Japanese War, and some reported themselves. Life is rare for seventy years, and he has no descendants in front of him at this age, and those who are alive avoid him, and he has been involved a lot.

Recalling the old scenery, Ma Tianlong sighed deeply, "I think back then, our family's annual expenses were two or three hundred thousand oceans, and the jade bracelets I bought for my fourth aunt were worth tens of thousands, and now I don't even have a dime on my ......." The first to turn his back on him was also the fourth aunt, and she took her private house with her, and I don't know if she went to Taiwan or Hong Kong. Other wives and concubines and children did the same, hey, before the family property was confiscated, they fled with the money, and then came back to report themselves on charges.

"How many years ago did you mention it, be careful of being heard, saying that you miss the rotten life before liberation, and sneak you out and criticize you severely!" Professor Jin hurriedly stopped his topic, with a stern expression, "Old Ma, you have to understand that trouble comes from your mouth." Don't say what life you used to live, the better we used to live, the more people hate us now. ”

The hatred of the rich has not been less since ancient times, how many people have taken this opportunity to bring down the rich and noble people in the past?

Yes, there are indeed bad people in rich and noble families, like Lao Ma, who has indeed done all the bad things, and there are also many capitalists and gangsters who have been defeated are people like him, and they should be dealt with strictly. He can pat his chest and say that he has not done a single bad thing, that it is his overseas relations that have led to the murder of his body, that he is full of economic wealth, that he has hatred of the rich that has led to the murder of himself, and that there are many people from rich backgrounds who have no overseas ties and have fallen to the same level as him, because of the hatred of the rich.

"Yes, Lao Jin has a point. Old horse, we finally got here, don't make trouble for us. Chen Sanchuan and Professor Jin hit it off at first sight, and he specially folded two thick branches with branches for Professor Jin to use as crutches under his armpits.

Ma Tianlong smiled and sealed his mouth with his hand, "Remember, you two old men are just worrying about it!"

Professor Jin shook his head, "It's not a blind worry, in this world, if you don't say the right word, you can be unlucky." Fortunately, the people here are simple, and the countryside doesn't know much about the ways in the city, so no one does this kind of thing, so we can settle down. ”

Chen Sanchuan agreed very much, looking up at the blue sky and white clouds, "It's also here that I can sleep peacefully." ”

"Hey, that's your student, right? Why did you come this way? His brother kept an eye on us. Ma Tianlong bit a grass leaf in his mouth, and suddenly squinted.

Professor Jin looked over and saw that it was indeed He Jianguo, pushing a flatbed cart to this side.

Soon, people who went home from work to cook and eat noticed He Jianguo, and looked at him from a distance, his eyes flickering.

Except for He Jianguo and his wife, Old Man He, He Jiandang, and He Jianjun, the rest of the He Lou Brigade didn't know the relationship between Professor Jin and He Jianguo, they were just staring at the bad elements.

Hearing someone ask, He Jianguo smiled heartily, "I was repairing the roof at home, but Shufang was not prepared, the thatch cut was not enough to pave the roof, and the eldest brother and second brother's house did not have good thatch, so I came to pull a few bundles of dry thatch or straw that were not used to go back." I've already registered with the accountant and waited until the end of the year to deduct this fee from the dividend. ”

This kind of thing is very common, most people are thatched houses, and if there is not enough thatch to repair the roof, they will go to the production team to get it.

Take it, it is not free, it must be booked, and it will be deducted from the dividend at the end of the year.

Hearing that He Jianguo did not take everyone's hard work in vain because his brother was a cadre, many people had smiles on their faces, and then saw him approaching the cowshed, and asked Chen Sanchuan and Ma Tianlong to help move the straw, without any intimate action, most of them laughed and dispersed, only three or five people were stranded on the road and refused to go far.

He Jianguo knew it and said loudly: "The two old men move quickly, I still have to rush home to repair the roof." ”

Chen Sanchuan and Ma Tianlong immediately sped up.

Twenty neat bundles of thatch and straw were piled on the flatbed truck, He Jianguo left without looking back, and told Qi Shufang to be cautious in the future, he went to pull the grass so openly, and there were people staring at it, and it seemed that he was eager to find out their family's mistakes, "I paid attention, one of them is Ma Xiaoping, the eldest son of the Ma family." ”

"It seems that I don't borrow money, and their family is holding a grudge. Ma Xiaoping is Shen Lingling's fiancé, Qi Shufang's face is ugly, "However, I visited carefully later, and their family was not short of money at all." ”

So, it is not necessarily the reason for borrowing money, but it may also be jealousy of the good life of your own family.

Be on guard, you have to be on guard!

"Well, it's not uncommon to report someone else's business. A few gleams flashed in Qi Shufang's eyes, "There is not much game left, I have to take it to you to eat on the road, don't worry about being reported." The books I got at the scrapyard don't seem to be able to be kept except for textbooks, so where do you think it's better to hide them?"

He Jianguo looked up at the roof, the thatch on the roof had been removed, and now only the bare beams and sticks supporting the thatch remained, "Wait until I finish laying the thatch on the roof." ”

"Hmm. ”

He Jianguo tied the thatch and straw he pulled in bunches one by one, climbed up with a ladder, and carefully squeezed all the straw handles on the roof one by one.

Qi Shufang stood in the fence courtyard and watched the new roof gradually take shape under the hands of He Jianguo and Old Man He.
