92 Chapter 92
Tang Tiezhu went back and told Mrs. Tang that after she had dinner tonight, he told Gu Manniang about this matter.
"Manniang, Li Qing pulled me just now and told me that I wanted you to help." After speaking, Tang Tiezhu couldn't help but look at Gu Manniang cautiously.
Who Li Qing is, Gu Manniang, she doesn't know.
However, although she didn't know who Li Qing was, she was silent on her face and asked, "What did he ask me to help?" How can I help? โ
She didn't know the people in the village well, and she didn't think she could help others.
Tang Tiezhu hesitated for a long time, and then said, "Li Qing wants to follow us to the mountain to pick up mountain goods." โ
Hearing this, Gu Manniang was stunned for a while, because she really didn't think that others would ask her to help for this matter. However, it soon became clear to the public.
In the past, because the villagers were afraid of the fierce beasts on the mountain, ordinary villagers did not dare to enter the mountain at all. Everyone didn't dare to enter the mountain, so the eldest brother didn't say that the second brother had the same number of pockmarks. But her sudden arrival, and her strength has also increased, and her strength has increased, and she dares to go into the mountains to hunt, which is tantamount to an outlier.
She can hunt in the mountains, and others will be red-eyed, after all, no one has become as strong as her. But she not only went into the mountains to hunt, but also took the men of the Tang family into the mountains to pick up mountain goods. In this way, who sees it will not be blushing.
These things, Gu Manniang used to be busy all day long, and she didn't have time to think about these things at all. Now that I suddenly heard Tang Tiezhu's words, I felt that it was reasonable. After all, the things on this mountain are not anyone's, only the Tang family went into the mountain to pick up things and came back to sell, and everyone who saw them was red-eyed.
Tang Tiezhu saw that Gu Manniang had not spoken, thinking that she was unhappy, so he hurriedly said: "If you don't want to, I'll go tell him now." โ
Hearing this, Gu Manniang came back to her senses. Then he shook his head. "It's not that I'm unwilling, I'm just thinking that Li Qing asked us to help today, if we agree, others will let me help when they see it. If I don't say yes, others will definitely have a problem with us. โ
This is what Gu Manniang scruples about, you promise this, you don't agree to that. Or no one agrees, although it will not be possible to talk about holding grudges or not holding grudges, but in this way, it will become a lost place for everyone, or to put it more seriously, the Tang family is likely to be excluded by the entire village.
This is what Gu Manniang doesn't want to see. Humans are social animals and cannot live alone away from the group.
Of course, the Tang family can also move out of here and settle down in other places. But then they have to think about the silver, and you can't move there without it. What's more, every village is xenophobic, and there's no guarantee that if you do move somewhere else, something like this won't happen.
Alas! Real headache. Gu Manniang had never encountered anything like this before. Even if sometimes relatives and friends, or friends ask you to do something, it is something you can do. But Li Qingti's incident really gave her a headache.
Promise to come down, she must do a good job, and she will promise more people in the future. It's not that she is stingy, and Gu Manniang doesn't know much about this deep mountain. She can't make any guarantees about the dangers inside.
She was able to use her strength and go into the mountains to hunt, because she really couldn't find any other way. With the three brothers of the Tang family, she can also ensure that they will not encounter any danger. But no matter how many people there are, she really can't โกโก.
"Then I'll tell him right now." Tang Tiezhu was reluctant to take Li Qing with him, but now he became more reluctant when he heard Gu Manniang say this.
"Wait, don't worry. I'll think about it later. Gu Manniang stopped Tang Tiezhu and thought of a way to get the best of both worlds.
Putting aside this annoying thing, Gu Manniang and Zhao Di were busy cooking dinner, a rooster and a hen, the hen Gu Manniang planned to stew, and the rooster was used to braise it.
The two sisters moved relatively quickly, and the meal was ready after dark. When the meal was ready, Gu Manniang asked Tang Tiezhu to call Mrs. Tang and them over.
Soon Mrs. Tang and they came over. When she came, Mrs. Tang had a calm face, as if someone had borrowed her rice to repay her chaff. Gu Manniang pretended not to see her face. Anyway, this woman has a calm face for 365 days a year, and 360 days.
Gu Manniang asked Mrs. Tang to eat in the house, and Gu Manniang took Gu Zhaodi and the two children to hide in the yard to eat.
After eating, Gu Manniang told Old Man Tang about asking him to help buy cattle tomorrow.
When Mrs. Tang heard this, she immediately disagreed, "No, if your father leaves, who will do the work in the field." โ
"Mother, it's only a day's work, it won't take long." Tang Tiezhu persuaded impatiently.
"You can't do it in a day." Mrs. Tang just didn't agree. "Now the family only relies on your father to do things alone, and I and Lotus rely on your father to raise it alone, so he delays the work in the field, so who will support us? Do you want to raise it? โ
"I can't delay the work in the field for a day." Old man Tang said, "Besides, buying cattle is a big deal, and I don't feel at ease if I don't go." โ
Cattle are really precious to the farmer's family. Old man Tang has been farming all his life, and he dreams of adding a cow to his family. It's a pity that the family has not been able to save money, and if you want to buy cattle, you can only dream.
Now that the third son is going to buy a cow, Old Man Tang is happy in his heart. He couldn't afford to buy a cow, but his son was able to buy a cow, and he was naturally happy. Besides, this cow purchase is not something that can be solved for one or two taels of silver, in case he doesn't go, these two children are deceived, and he will lose a lot of silver. Therefore, he has to follow and help palm the eye when he says anything, so as not to be deceived.
"Dead old man, don't worry about eating turnips. Are your three sons and three daughters-in-law very capable? No, you can afford to buy cattle without making a sound, what are you with here? Mrs. Tang said, and shaved Gu Manniang's eyes fiercely.
Now they are getting more and more powerful, and they don't even come to them to discuss such a big thing as buying cattle. really didn't take the two old men in their eyes at all, and she was really angry.
"Mother-in-law, if you are worried about the work in the field, when we come back, Tie Zhu and I will help finish the work in the field. If you still don't want to, then I can pay for it. Gu Manniang didn't want to talk to Mrs. Tang, so she smashed it with money.
"How much can you give?" As soon as she heard that she was rich, Mrs. Tang immediately did not object.
When the others heard her question, they all looked for her. Tang Tiezhu and Gu Manniang are their sons and daughters-in-law, they now have something to ask the old man for help, and this matter is not difficult for the old man, as long as he has a little conscience, he will definitely not refuse. But Mrs. Tang is different from others, she doesn't agree to say it, and now when she hears that she is rich, her attitude immediately reversed three hundred and sixty degrees. It's infuriating and hateful to look at.
"Twenty Wen."
"Too little, add a little more."
"Twenty-five texts, I can't add more."
Mrs. Tang didn't care so much, she bargained directly with Gu Manniang.
"No money, no money." Old man Tang watched the two mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law bargain there, waving their hands there.
"Okay, twenty-five is twenty-five. However, you also have to help with the work in the fields. "Mrs. Tang has to inch in.
"Okay, no problem." Gu Manniang didn't have anything to say about this. Even if Mrs. Tang doesn't mention helping to work, can they watch the old man busy in the field alone, and they don't help as future generations? So about helping Old Man Tang work, Gu Manniang had no objection at all.
After the matter was negotiated, Mrs. Tang didn't care anymore, and directly pulled Old Man Tang and Lotus and left.
As soon as Old Man Tang and the others left, Tang Tiezhu opened his mouth, and then said, "I'm sorry." โ
Tang Tiezhu suddenly said humble, which made Gu Manniang very surprised. She couldn't figure out what he had to say.
"I didn't know my mother would make this request......" Tang Tiezhu was very embarrassed, it was a small matter, but he was very speechless by his mother.
Hearing this, Gu Manniang was very disapprehensive and said, "It's okay, I proposed this money, regardless of my mother-in-law's business." "Twenty-five dollars, Gu Manniang really didn't see it, if you can spend a little money to solve the problem, Gu Manniang can really spend this little money. Anyway, she didn't want to talk to Mrs. Tang for a long time, so she couldn't stop giving money to tell her to shut up.
But Tang Tiezhu still didn't feel very comfortable in his heart. Even if you are a mother-in-law and can't get along with your daughter-in-law, you don't want to think that this cow was not bought by Gu Manniang. Even if Gu Manniang bought it with the money she earned, but he and Gu Manniang are a family, isn't she doing everything possible to earn her son's money?
In the past, Tang Tiezhu did everything possible to cheat money from Mrs. Tang, but now he has changed the direction. Tang Tiezhu washed his mind and followed Gu Manniang to make money to support his family. But Mrs. Tang came to make money from her daughter-in-law, which made Tang Tiezhu very awkward.
"Manniang, don't worry, I will work hard to make money, so that you and your children can live a good life." Tang Tiezhu suddenly assured Gu Manniang.
When Gu Manniang heard what he said, she was not moved by the words, she only felt that Tang Tiezhu was a little inexplicable. She can make her own money, and she can make a good life for herself, so why spend other people's money.
Gu Manniang thought like this, which can only show that Gu Manniang didn't feel that Tang Tiezhu was her dependent, and she didn't treat Tang Tiezhu as a family. Not to mention the lover who wants to accompany her for the rest of her life, so if Tang Tiezhu wants to hug the beauty, it is really a long way to go......
