Chapter 28: Making Money (1)
"Then let me say a few words first, I have ten oceans here, which is the coffin book that the two of us have saved for so many years, I originally thought, when we go one day, we don't need you to pay, our own money is enough, you can buy it for us", the old man took out a pocket from his arms, poured it out, and looked at it as if it had been prepared a long time ago.

"Dad, what are you talking about, you are going to live a long life." Wu Dazhu saw that his father had talked about what was behind him, and said anxiously.
"It's nothing, everyone is going to die, if we don't die, do we have to live as old monsters? Erzhu, this money, Dad will give it to you, and Dad won't have you to pay it back, but there is one thing, when we are gone, you have to send us to the end, you can't let your eldest brother and third brother pay a penny, if you can do it, I will give you this money."
"Dad, I can do it, I will definitely give you a pension and send you to the end", Wu Erzhu's eyes were red, although he was a little afraid of his daughter-in-law, and his daughter-in-law was in charge of family affairs, but he was still filial, he saw his father and mother take out the coffin, and felt that he was too unfilial.
"Daughter-in-law, how much money does our family have, you can take it out." Wu Dazhu saw that his father took out the coffin, and he couldn't ignore it as the boss.
He Saifeng glanced at her husband, "In charge, how can our family have any money, a few years ago, the family was poor, in the past few years, because the eldest girl, the second girl, and the younger brother have all made money, the situation in the family is better, but most of them have added furniture, tables, chairs, benches and whatnot, and now the bits and pieces on hand add up to only three oceans." After speaking, I was afraid that everyone would not believe it, so I got on the kang neatly, opened the newly added cabinet with the key, and took out a cloth money bag for a long time, and poured it out, only two oceans, six copper plates, and then took out five copper plates from the jacket pocket. Oh, you see, that's all."
The old man sighed and looked at the third child. The third child looked at his father, "Dad, mother, second brother, second sister-in-law, when we came, we brought all the money from the family. But last year, we renovated the house, it took eight oceans, and now our family only has two oceans left, but we still have some work on hand, and it will be done in half a month, and when the work is handed in, there will probably be two oceans, and we can only take out so much." After saying this, the third daughter-in-law pulled out two oceans, "Dad, give", the third daughter-in-law still cherishes the words as usual like gold.
"You're all good, you're doing well, but you're still three oceans away, and you'll give you an idea." The old man, looking at the money on the table, said to everyone. But the only answer to him was a deathly silence. After a long, long time, Wu Shizhu stood up, "Grandpa, grandma, father, mother, second uncle, second aunt, third uncle, third aunt, I should go to Yan's house, wait for me to ask at Yan's house in the afternoon, see if I can pay next month's salary in advance."
Hearing this, everyone suddenly came to their senses, as if they had just woken up from a dream, "Brother Zhao, can this be done?" Don't dislike the Yan family because of this",
He Saifeng asked.
"No, mother, I know in my heart, if it is successful, forget it if it doesn't work, and become a live horse doctor."
"Mother, I should also go, I will also try to ask Master Li", Erya also said.
"Good boy, you all go, remember not to insist on it, talk to others", He Saifeng told the two children.
After Wu Erya and Wu Shizhu left, the old man scolded the two members of the second family: "Look, what sins have you all created, let your juniors worry about you, they are all children, and children are more sensible than you."
"Dad, I really know it's wrong, I won't be greedy for this kind of cheap in the future, but I really can't help it, you also saw the injury on Dabao's body, I can't let those black-hearted people beat him like beasts, everyone's great kindness to our family, I Wu Erzhu will definitely remember it, and I will definitely repay you for being a cow and a horse in the future." To everyone's surprise, Wu Erzhu actually knelt down and kowtowed vigorously, no matter who it was, it was kowtow.
"I said, second brother, what are you doing, we can't afford it, hurry up", He Saifeng hurriedly said.
"Leave him alone, let him knock, otherwise he won't know the long memory", although the old man was also startled and distressed, but he still said ruthlessly. The old lady was even more distressed, and tears fell in her anxiety, but the old man spoke, and she didn't dare to scream. It wasn't until the forehead was bleeding that everyone pulled up. The old lady saw that her son was bleeding, so she quickly found a clean handkerchief and wiped it, but the second daughter-in-law sat there and didn't move, and everyone was even more dissatisfied with her.
When the old lady finished wiping her forehead for her second son, she stopped the bleeding, and looked at her eldest daughter-in-law in embarrassment, "Eldest daughter-in-law, you see that if the children can really lend the money, it will be a big ocean, can you go and borrow it from the Li family next door, usually your relationship is so good, his family will definitely lend it to you."
When He Saifeng heard this, many years of grievances came to his heart, and tears flowed out, "You know that you bullied me, when I recruited my brother with a fever, everyone was almost gone, who of you helped one by one, and my brother-in-law gave us five copper plates, but what about you?" Daddy, second brother, second brother and sister, which of you has helped? You guys are going to watch Brother Zhao breathe, yes, Brother Zhao is a girl and it's worthless, but that's also the meat that fell off my body. In the end, I begged her Aunt Li desperately, and then I exchanged the three girls for my brother's life. The third girl, who is still so young, was sold by me, who was a mother, and became a child daughter-in-law at a young age, and I am a mother, just like there are thousands of knives cutting my flesh. It's good now, for your son, your grandson, let me pay, okay, I'll pay, and let me beg someone, do I have that face? After saying that, he sat down on the ground and cried. Wu Dazhu walked over and hugged his daughter-in-law, in this matter, he also had some resentment towards his father and mother.
Old couple, you look at me, I look at you, my eyes are full of guilt. Back then, the family was too poor, and the younger brother was the fourth girl, they really had such a plan, let her self-destruct, because of the doctor, the family didn't even have food, so they thought, it's okay to go like this. Later, the three girls became a child daughter-in-law, and the younger brother was fine, watching the younger brother who grew up day by day, and looking at the three girls who went to someone else's house at a young age, they became more and more guilty, and their conscience was also tormented, so they tried their best to be good to the younger brother and the third girl, hoping to make up for some.
None of them noticed that Er Ya had been standing at the door for a long, long time.
