030 What does it mean to receive heavy gifts
"How could I forget such an important matter, to make a few chicken food boxes, or else these people are crowded together, but they are not going to be trampled to death. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info" Seeing the chickens and ducks huddled together, the fourth grandmother patted her legs and said.
"If there is no bamboo at home, just make a few sections and cut them in the middle."
Mu Qianlan also looked a little distressed, this is all money, and she is counting on laying eggs to make up for the two children in the future, but it can't be damaged.
"I remember what you said, it's true, I'll look for it." The fourth grandmother said vigorously and went to the backyard.
Mu Qianlan and Mu Tou still went to the mountains to find good things. The family seems to have tacitly agreed to the division of labor when they are doing their work now, except for digging wild vegetables, at other times, the wood generally follows Mu Qianlan up the mountain, while Xiao Luo'er follows the fourth grandmother to do some housework at home and plant vegetables in the yard.
Mu Qianlan and Mu dug up a lot of things and planted them in the ground outside, and then went home.
When he arrived at the house, Mu Qianlan saw a pair of big baskets in the yard, which were full of them, and he didn't know what they were.
Whose family sent this again? In the past few days since I arrived in Liushu Village, someone in the family has always sent some things over, but it is not possible to send so much, after all, the Zhuang family is not rich.
"Fourth grandma, whose family sent this?" Mu Qianlan scooped water and washed her hands, and asked the fourth grandmother who was cooking in the stove.
"After you went up the mountain, the nine fences beside Yang Gongzi sent it, saying that it was a little thank you gift from his son-in-law." The fourth grandmother replied while stir-frying.
"Why did you send so much? I didn't teach anything, just a few kinds of wild vegetables. Mu Qianlan really can't guess what this Yang Gongzi means, it's so decent, is this sticking to himself?
"I won't accept it, but that Jiuli put down his things and left, my old arms and legs can't catch up with him." The fourth grandmother also felt that this thing was considered ill-gotten gains, and it really couldn't be collected.
In fact, what the fourth grandmother is more afraid of is that this Yang Gongzi is Mu Qianlan's idea. Mu Qianlan is a good baby, although she is not very beautiful, but she is much better than the girls in Zhuangzi, I am afraid that there will be many people staring at her in the future, but she can't let these sons and brothers be ruined.
Can these sons of rich families still marry the girls of the Zhuang family as serious ladies?
Mu Qianlan lifted the lid on the basket and looked through the contents inside.
In a basket, there were half a bag of rice and half a bag of noodles, as well as a bucket of oil and a jar of salt. These things are used for daily life, but there are too many to send, especially this jar of salt, which is almost ten catties, and oil, which is also a big bucket, which is not old or young.
However, in this regard, Mu Qianlan felt that this idea was nothing to that Yang Gongzi, and he would accept it.
But after opening the second basket, Mu Qianlan was not calm, there were all valuable things here, a few rulers wrapped in oilcloth, although it was not the kind of silk he was wearing, it looked like good material, at least better than the ones he bought. Seven or eight boxes of candy and snacks are all Su Ji's things, and the price is not cheap. What else? Two roast chickens, one piece of sauce meat. At the bottom is a large piece of pork belly, even if there are no twenty catties, there are seventeen or eighteen catties.
Even if you want to thank yourself, you can't be so generous, how much do these things cost?
However, when Mu Qianlan noticed that there was a small package inside, he was completely unsettled, because the small cloth bag was actually wrapped in silver ingots, about ten taels and a total of five, that is, fifty taels of silver.
Fifty taels of silver, Mu Qianlan didn't know when he would be able to earn so much money. This silver is enough for their family to live without food and clothing for three or four years.
"Oh, why do you still have so much silver? Lan girl, this can't be done, we can't take this money, we have to return it to him. The fourth grandmother also came out, followed by Luo'er.
"Sister, so much silver...... Xiao Luo'er has never seen so much money, and her voice trembled a little.
In the past, she had secretly seen milk counting silver, but it was all broken silver, and she had seen such a thing there.
It's not just Luo'er, but Mu is next to him, looking at these things, he can't even say a word, this is the feeling of a nouveau riche. But can such a thing be accepted? Yang Gongzi had met twice and had a meal together.
Mu Qianlan felt that she was petrified, and she knew that she couldn't accept these things, but how could she return them? She and him just met in Pingshui, and they didn't even know his identity or where he lived, how to retreat?
"I'll go to the market tomorrow and see if anyone knows where he lives. It's just that this Yang Gongzi, I'm afraid it's not our people here. Mu Qianlan put the lid on the basket and said.
"What you're talking about, I'll inquire tomorrow first, and if you find out, we'll send it back." The fourth grandmother nodded.
Now that they had made up their minds, a few people didn't think much about it, so they set up a table under the tree in the courtyard and began to eat.
Today, Mu Qianlan bought a piece of meat and came back, and the fourth grandmother made a pot of braised pork for the two babies to satisfy their hunger, and fried a plate of vegetarian cabbage.
The two babies sat on a small stool, only caring about eating, but Mu Qianlan thought that he was about to farm, so he said:
"It's time for our land to be planted, and I think other families have started planting. Fourth, grandma, what do you say we should plant? ”
"I haven't planted land for a few years, and three acres of paddy fields and seven acres of dry land have been sold. However, in my early years, I also knew how to farm, and if you ask, I can be considered asking. The fourth grandmother sandwiched a piece of cabbage and said very proudly.
"How about the fourth grandmother so much land?" Mu Qianlan really didn't expect that the fourth grandmother had so much land.
"In addition to leaving this yard, your fourth grandfather only left those lands, but I am an old woman, and I can't plant them, and this crop land, no one can help me, and I can't do anything, so I will go out." When the fourth grandmother said this, her tone was always quite regretful.
In fact, she was a little reluctant to give up the land, but alone, there was no one to help the plow, so she could only rent out, and the rent she collected every year was enough for her to eat alone.
"Fourth grandma, you can wait for happiness with peace of mind, I don't have any other skills, but I will never let you and the two babies go hungry. I see, there are many treasures on this Ai Mountain, and in the future, when we have leisure, we will dig treasures on the mountain, and this day will definitely get better and better. Mu Qianlan smiled at the fourth grandmother and said.
