Chapter 20: I Will Be a Female Red
"Yuxianglou?" When Yinglan's mother heard this, she hurriedly said: "Her father, she only lived in our house for two days, and you sold her to that kind of place, and if you do this, you will ...... in the future." There will be retribution in the future. ”
"Hahaha...... Yinglan's father laughed, "Retribution? I, Liu San, have lived until now, and I have never seen what retribution is like! He said with a grim face, "Anyway! If you don't have money, Lao Tzu will use her people to pay off her debts! ”
Yu Qiusu had vaguely understood at this time that Yinglan's father was going to sell herself to a bad place, she was shocked, her face turned pale, and she hurriedly said: "Uncle, you saved me, even if you don't say it, this kindness, I will remember it in my heart, if the uncle has to repay me now, you can do whatever you want me to do, no matter how hard and tired I am, I can do it, I just beg Uncle you not to sell me." ”
"Her father, you see she's still young," Yinglan's mother said helpfully, "It's not worth a lot of money if you sell her to Yuxianglou?" I think it's better to have her do some work for us. ”
"Nonsense!" Yinglan's father said angrily, "Don't think I don't know what your heart is, aren't you afraid that Lao Tzu will sell this stinky girl?" Hum! You two mothers-in-law can't take care of Lao Tzu, do you still want Lao Tzu to keep this stinky girl at home again? You can still get a few bucks for selling her. ”
"I can sweep the floor and wash the dishes," Yu Qiusu said, "In the future, all the housework in the uncle's house will be handed over to me." ”
"Sweeping? Brush the dishes? Hahaha......" Yinglan's father laughed, "Can you make money sweeping the floor and washing the dishes?" ”
"Then I'll grow vegetables and feed ......the chickens," Yu Qiusu continued.
"The vegetable seeds and chicken seedlings are not ours yet, and you also call it to make money for Lao Tzu?" Yinglan's father said with a tense face.
"I know how to paint and paint, I can paint and sell it." Yu Qiusu persevered.
Yinglan's father said: "Don't joke with Lao Tzu, you stinky girl, even if you really know how to write and paint, there are so many poor sour people who sell literature in the market, and I haven't seen them eat their stomachs, where is the surplus money for Lao Tzu?" ”
"Her father ......" Yinglan's mother saw that her husband looked like she wanted to sell this girl and was happy, she couldn't bear it, and wanted to beg again.
"I will be a female red, I can embroider for Xiuzhuang." Yu Qiu Su said.
"Oh?" Yinglan's father hesitated.
"Will you be a female celebrity?" Yinglan's mother asked.
Yu Qiusu nodded, looked at Yinglan's father and said, "If my uncle has to sell me, I will have no choice but to commit suicide on the spot!" Anyway, I'm alone now, homeless, and I can't love anything, and when I say it, my uncle won't be able to get a penny at that time! ”
Yinglan's father was choked by her words, and he was speechless for a while.
Yinglan's mother turned her face to her husband and pleaded: "Her father, if this girl is really good at embroidery, it is better to let her try it." ”
"As long as my uncle doesn't sell me, even if I am asked to be a cow and a horse in my uncle's house for the rest of my life, I will have no complaints!" Yu Qiusu said sincerely.
Yinglan's father thought in his heart, it is really not worth a few dollars to sell this stinky girl now, if she is really a female celebrity, let her help Lao Tzu make money when the time comes, and it will not be too late to sell it when it is bigger, so he glared at his wife and said: "Will she be a female celebrity, embroider well or not, then let Lao Tzu look at it and say, give her a needle and thread, let her embroider!" If I'm just fooling Lao Tzu, I won't be blamed when the time comes! Stinky woman, don't bring me wine yet! ”
The three of them breathed a sigh of relief, and Yinglan's mother went to get wine for her husband.
Liu Yinglan pulled Yu Qiusu into the bedroom and asked, "Susu, are you really good at embroidery?" ”
Yu Qiusu nodded and said, "It will be a little." ”
Yinglan frowned and said, "If you don't embroider well, my father will still sell you at that time." ”
Yu Qiusu laughed at himself: "If I don't try, I will have to be sold by your father at this time." ”
Yinglan's mother finally turned out a crumpled piece of fabric, handed it to Yu Qiusu, and watched Yu Qiusu take the fabric needlework and enter the bedroom with Yinglan.
"Are there any flower bandages?" Yu Qiusu asked.
"What? I don't have one at home. Yinglan didn't know what she was asking.
Yu Qiusu thought for a while and said, "By the way, you don't know how to embroider, naturally you don't." ”
"You're going to make this stuff yourself? That's great. Liu Yinglan watched Yu Qiusu find bamboo strips and other things, and actually made a flower bandage, and said happily.
"You're still saying it's so simple?" Yu Qiusu smiled bitterly.
Liu Yinglan took it in her hand and looked at it and said, "In short, as long as it is ready, it will be able to be used." ”
"That's right." Yu Qiusu put the fabric on the bandage and began to thread the needle, but felt dizzy.
Liu Yinglan saw that her head was sweating, so she went outside and twisted a handkerchief to wipe her sweat, and said, "Susu, if you can't bear it, take a break and embroider again." ”
Yu Qiusu glanced at her gratefully and said, "I'm okay, finish the embroidery early, and tomorrow my aunt can take it to the embroidery master." ”
"Dad, it's all here." Yinglan's mother took out a shabby money bag and handed it to her husband.
Yinglan's father snatched it, and when he saw that there were only a few copper plates inside, he slapped his wife in the face: "Stinky mother-in-law, do you dare to lie to Lao Tzu?" I know you must still have it, so why don't you take it out for me honestly! ”
"Her father, it's really gone, why don't you believe me, it's really gone......"
Yinglan's father looked for it at the head of the bed, no, and began to rummage through the bedding again, until he touched a few copper plates at the foot of the bed, put them all into the money bag, and said with a glare: "Do you dare to say that there is no more?" I know that you are not honest! He knocked his wife to the ground.
Yinglan's mother looked at her distressedly and begged: "Her father, you can keep a few for me and Lan'er, you take them all, in case you lose the gamble again......"
"Phew!" Yinglan's father reprimanded, "You haven't gambled yet, and you hope that Lao Tzu will lose?" And also! You show that stinky girl to Lao Tzu! Don't let her run! Otherwise, I'll ask you! After saying that, he made up for his wife, and went out without looking back.
After Yu Qiusu finished embroidering, he took the embroidery off the flower brace and said: "There is no flower thread, so it can only look like this." ”
Liu Yinglan held her hands in her hands and looked at them carefully: "Su Su, you are so powerful, although there is no flower color, but this lotus flower is still exactly the same as the one that grows!" I can't believe that your embroidery skills are so good! Wouldn't it be even more great if there was a color? ”
Yinglan's mother was also stunned when she got it in her hand: "Is this really embroidered by Su Su?" I don't know how to embroider, but it seems to me that it's just like the real thing! It's late today, so I'll take it to the embroidery village early tomorrow morning and show it to the embroidery master! ”
