Chapter 52: Lies
When the few people selling vegetables had eaten, Kong Mingying sat aside with the canvas containing the money and counted the money carefully.
Seeing the 147 yuan 6 jiao 2 cents in his hand, Kong Mingying was very excited.
Thinking of the matter discussed with Yu Tianzhou the night before, Kong Mingying looked at the electronic watch he was wearing, glanced at Yu Zhiqing and Kong Xiaoyu, who were concentrating on eating, and endured the heartache and pulled out two pieces of money with a denomination of 5 yuan.
Kong Mingying walked to the table and handed the money to Yu Zhiqing and Kong Xiaoyu, who were sitting up: "Zhiqing, Kong Xiaoyu, you can pack this money first, and use it as a pocket on weekdays." Although Kong Mingying tried to squeeze out a smile, her tone was too unnatural because she was reluctant.
After Yu Mingyue looked at the faces of several adults, she saw that her parents were stunned and didn't mean to reach out to pick it up, so she hurriedly stood up and urged: "Dad, Mom, grandma will give you pocket money, and you will be able to buy gifts for your grandparents in the future." ”
Yu Mingyue's words were very useful in Kong Mingying's heart. The smile on her face also had a hint more: "Alas, you two hurry on, what are you doing in a daze, you don't have to buy gifts from your father and me, just don't spend them indiscriminately." ”
Kong Mingyu and Yu Zhiqing came back to their senses, and after carefully examining Kong Mingying's face, the husband and wife glanced at each other and reached out to take the money.
"Oh, thank you Mom." Seeing that Kong Mingying was really generous, the smile on Kong Xiaoyu's face became more sincere, and she folded the money and put it in her trouser pocket.
Yu Zhiqing was also very happy in his heart, and he was not in a hurry to put it on after receiving the money, and looked at Kong Mingying with a smile on the baby's face: "Mom, I won't spend it indiscriminately, when the family can use it, Xiaoyu and I will take out the money again." ”
Seeing the respectful attitude of Yu Zhiqing and his wife, Kong Mingying felt a lot better, and Yu Tianzhou felt very useful in his heart.
Yu Tianzhou smiled easily: "Hehe, you can use it when you need it, as long as you don't spend it indiscriminately." If you sell vegetables every day like this, the conditions at home will be better in the future, and then let your mother give you the pocket money again, as for Xiaoyue."
Seeing her grandfather looking at her, Yu Mingyue, who was rejoicing, hurriedly shook her hand: "Grandpa, grandma, don't give me pocket money, I'm still young." But grandpa and grandma should also have pocket money every day, just like my parents. "I really want to save some money, but the current conditions of my family are like this, how can I reach for my family's money.
"Hey, hey."
"Ha, haha."
"Oh, this kid."
Several of the adults laughed.
Seeing that her granddaughter was sensible and filial, Kong Mingying was even happier: "Hehe, grandpa and grandma are old, where do you still use any pocket money, Xiaoyue, you said you don't want pocket money, then grandma won't give it." ”
Yu Mingyue nodded seriously: "Well, grandma doesn't have to give Xiaoyue money, Xiaoyue will work hard to earn pocket money every day." ”
Her words made several adults in the stove room laugh again.
After a burst of laughter, the meal was almost finished, and Yu Tianzhou sat at the table and arranged the business for the second half of the day.
"It hasn't rained for the past few days, and there are fewer mushrooms on the mountain, so I won't go up the mountain today. Wait a minute, I will also inform Liu Wenhong, and Chen Qingyong's family will pull vegetables to sell in the afternoon, Zhiqing will order carpenter's skills, and you can make a simple rabbit circle for Xiaoyue at home. When the sun goes down, we go to the vegetable field to pick some green peppers and eggplants. ”
When they were in the car, Yu Tianzhou and his son discussed the daily arrangements for the future, so that they would not be busy anymore.
Hearing that only Liu and Chen only received food from their distant relatives, Yu Mingyue secretly looked at her disappointed parents, feeling a little bitter and helpless. But she didn't dare to speak rashly.
"Grandpa, can I still go into the city tomorrow to sell vegetables?" After finishing the last bite of rice in the bowl, Yu Mingyue leaned in front of Yu Tianzhou.
Yu Tianyi, who was going to smoke dry tobacco, was stunned, took back his cigarette pouch and pipe, and glanced at Yu Zhiqing and Kong Xiaoyu as if unintentionally.
When he looked at Yu Mingyue who was eager for a sweet smile again, Yu Tianzhou nodded and smiled: "Hehe, of course I can, in the future, Xiaoyue will have to work hard to sell vegetables to earn private money." Wait a minute, let your mother take you in, pay for your grandfather and grandfather's vegetables yesterday, and buy you some side dishes to sell tomorrow. ”
Although Yu Tianzhou didn't explain this, Yu Mingyue and Kong Xiaoyu both understood it, and Yu Tianzhou acquiesced to Yu Mingyue's future purchase of two dishes.
Yu Mingyue was overjoyed. Although my grandfather didn't take the initiative to collect the dishes from my grandfather and grandfather's house today, as long as I started here, it would not be far away for the family to receive the dishes from my grandfather's house and my grandfather's house.
"Hey, what kind of insect repellent is this, what is the special stomach booster for?" Kong Mingying, who was cleaning the basket, saw the pig medicine in the paper bag containing a pair of pink water shoes at a glance.
Yu Mingyue was startled, she was busy suppressing the tension in her heart, and ran over with a smile: "Hehe, grandma, this is what I bought from a few people from the farming and animal husbandry station when I was in the city, and they said that this medicine pig can be found quickly after eating." "I was so happy earlier, I forgot about buying pig medicine.
Even if she made up a lie temporarily, Yu Mingyue didn't blush much, only quietly looked at the expressions of the adults, and gave Yu Mingyan a look, not giving her a chance to talk more.
Yu Mingyue knew very well that after all, she was still a child who didn't know more than five years old, and it would be too strange if the adults knew that she deliberately went to the Agriculture and Animal Husbandry Bureau to inquire about the pig medicine she bought.
Hearing Yu Mingyue say this, the four adults thought that Yu Mingyue had been deceived. They rummaged through 6 packs of two kinds of pig medicine, and they were still a little uneasy.
"Xiaoyue, how much does this pig medicine cost?" Kong Mingying was the first to think of the key point.
Yu Mingyue thought about it for a while: "Those uncles said 2 yuan a pack, I gave them three pieces of 5 yuan and found me 3 yuan." ”
Recognizing money, as big as 50 yuan, as small as 1 point, Yu Mingyue has already learned it, and the simple counting of Yu Mingyue will also be, and the Yu family knows it.
"2 yuan a small pack, this is too expensive, Xiaoyue can't spend money like this in the future." After Kong Mingying taught Yu Mingyue with some heartache, she looked at the other three uneasily: "This price doesn't look like meeting a liar, but after all, this is for pigs, this"
To be used to feed pigs, the well-informed Yu Tianzhou is even more uneasy: "Alas, I bought everything, you first take a small packet each, mix it in chicken food, feed a chicken and see, if there is anything, we will eat a chicken." Yu Tianzhou didn't want to waste anything, so he came up with this idea.
Seeing that the adults were thinking about things so complicated, Yu Mingyue couldn't cry or laugh in her heart.
Replacing her smile with a look of curiosity, Yu Mingyue pulled Yu Tianzhou: "Grandpa, I saw a lot of uncles and uncles buy it, so I bought it." They all said that those who sold medicine were from the district animal husbandry station, saying that it was used for scientific livestock raising, which could make pigs grow fast and fat. ”
This really worked, and the four adults were a little less worried, and seriously gathered around to read the instructions on the medicine bag.
After reading the detailed instructions on the drug packaging, Yu Tianzhou suddenly realized: "Yo, it seems that it is really sold by the District Agriculture and Animal Husbandry Bureau. ”
This matter is clear, but Yu Tianzhou, who has always been cautious, still confesses to feed a chicken first.
Yu Mingyue couldn't say anything about this, just looking at the medicine that was put away by Kong Mingying with the small water shoes, Yu Mingyue couldn't be calm anymore.
"Grandma, the two pairs of shoes in the basket are my Xiaoyan's, and she also bought two packs of medicine." Yu Mingyue didn't dare to say that it was the money she spent, and she lied again.
Yu Mingyan is an honest person, but at this moment, facing Kong Mingying's gaze, she thought of the new shoes that might be taken away by Kong Mingying, and quickly nodded with a red face: "Well, second grandma, those are my and my mother's water shoes." ”
Seeing that after seeing her grandmother hesitate for a while, she took out the four handfuls of medicine separately, and Yu Mingyue opened her mouth and couldn't find a reason to speak.
I was happy earlier, and I forgot to hide the pig medicine, and now I give my grandfather's pig medicine, and I can only buy it when I find an opportunity next time. sighed secretly in his heart, and sent a rewarding smile to Yu Mingyan next to him.
The small actions between the two children were hidden from Kong Mingying, but not from the other three adults. At this time, the three adults all had their own ideas in their hearts, but none of them said anything.
Yu Tianzhou, who had figured it out a little, glanced at the two children who were smiling, and urged: "Okay, Zhiqing will write down the bill yesterday and bring it to Xiaoyue, and then clear the money that Xiaoyue sold vegetables today, and then make a wooden circle for the rabbit."
Kong Xiaoyu, you took Xiaoyue and Xiaoyan in and paid for yesterday's dishes. I'm going to order food, and I'll invite that Tang Fugui to dinner later, old woman, you remember to make those two catties of meat in the afternoon. ”
Yu Mingyue clearly said earlier that it cost 12 yuan to buy medicine, and then there were 3 yuan without explaining where to go, although Yu Tianzhou didn't understand how to buy two pairs of shoes for 3 yuan, he was already very sure that the shoes and medicine should have been bought by Yu Mingyue.
And just now, Yu Mingyue obviously took the lead in lying, Yu Tianzhou only thought about the reason, and he couldn't be happy in his heart. After arranging, he filled in the bucket and smoked it, and went straight out.
Yu Mingyue, who was secretly happy in her heart, didn't know that her lie had been revealed, and when she saw Yu Tianzhou going out, she hurriedly pulled Yu Zhiqing and began to give her some money.
Yu Mingyue knew that her father only had 24 yuan and 2 dimes in his bag, but she still had to do it when she was happy when she counted the money, otherwise it would be too strange.
Yu Zhiqing counted the money, 24 yuan and 2 dimes were no more and no less, took out a pair of bills in the house, combined with the 15 yuan that Yu Mingyue said to take away earlier, Yu Zhiqing probably counted it, and his heart became happy.
"Hehe, Xiaoyue is about to become a rich man, but today I earned about 20 yuan." Yu Zhiqing picked up Yu Mingyue, his face was full of joy, but also a little relieved, and he also took the opportunity to give Kong Xiaoyu a reassuring look.
His sensible and precocious daughter surprised him no matter how different she was, but he was really pleased that his daughter could be so close to his biological father's family and for the sake of his biological father's family.
This Yu Zhiqing is really a person who can accept reality very well and doesn't like to think too much. This kind of character can be regarded as a natural blessing.
Kong Mingyu was different, she was very surprised in the stove room, but she didn't come out with a strong pressure. After entering the house, she showed a hint of surprise on her face from time to time, but after receiving the reassuring look from Yu Zhiqing, she didn't say much and asked.
"Okay, Zhiqing, you still make a shelf for Xiaoyue to raise rabbits, give me the accounting list and money, I will take Xiaoyue in to pay, and then collect some side vegetables and pick some tender melons back."
Kong Xiaoyu, who had made up her mind to talk again in the evening, let go of the doubts in her heart, took Yu Mingyue with a smile, and went to the stove room to pack her things.
With two pairs of shoes, two packs of pig medicine and two rabbits on his back, Kong Xiaoyu teased Yu Mingyue as he walked: "Xiaoyue, how much is the right amount to pay for your grandfather and your grandfather's dishes?" ”
Yu Mingyue has been cautious over the years, and looked at her mother with a puzzled expression: "Ah, how much do you have to pay?" After wrinkling his little face for a while, he smiled seriously: "Mom said that you can pay as much as you want." ”
After seeing her mother stunned, a more natural and relaxed smile appeared on her face, and when Yu Mingyue was happy, she was also a little helpless.
Go to school faster, grow up faster, and even if you no longer pretend to be a child with an innocent face in the future, you will not be worried or suspected by adults. Deceiving her closest relatives, she felt really uncomfortable.
As long as she can keep the biggest secret from being discovered, she really doesn't want to make up a lie to her relatives again. RS
