Chapter 136: Poor Like This?
"By the way, Sister Xiqing, did you come to me for anything this time?" Zhu Ziyu saw that Du Xiqing had not explained his intentions, so he took the initiative to ask.
Du Xiqing only remembered that she came to sit or something at this time, so she hurriedly said, "Brother Zhu, it's like this." I heard that you are going to Shudi, and I heard that the people there like to put dogwood in their food for seasoning. I am suddenly very interested in this dogwood, and I want to ask you to get me some dogwood and dogwood seeds when you go to Shudi, and by the way, help me inquire about the planting method of this dogwood! ”
"Dogwood?" Zhu Ziyu glanced at Du Xiqing a little strangely, and then said, "This thing is indeed very special. The first time I ate it, I had tears in my eyes, but after eating it, I felt that it was very enjoyable, that is, after eating, I had to drink a lot of water to get rid of the spicy taste in my mouth. ”
Speaking of this, Zhu Ziyu said with a smile: "I really didn't expect that you would be okay with this mouthful, Sister Xiqing!" ”
Du Xiqi smiled when he heard this, and then said: "Brother Zhu has traveled to many great mountains and rivers, and how many places he has been to, isn't it just to be curious?" Everyone has their own curiosity, and Xiqing is no exception! ”
When Zhu Ziyu heard Du Xiqing's words, he immediately felt very appetizing, and immediately laughed and said, "Okay, what a curiosity!" From what you said, Brother Zhu will do it for you in time! ”
Du Xiqing was happy now, so she hurriedly took out a silver ticket from her pocket: "Brother Zhu, I have a silver ticket of one hundred taels here, you want to take it." If there is anything exceeded, I will make it up to you when I come back, what do you think? ”
After Zhu Ziyu saw the silver ticket, he said unhappily: "Sister Xiqing, you are looking down on your Brother Zhu!" What kind of money do you give for this, you don't know that the dogwood is very cheap in Shudi, and it doesn't cost money at all! I'm telling you, hurry up and put the money away for me, or I'll kick you out unceremoniously!" ”
At this time, the Zhu family also walked out of it, and after hearing Zhu Ziyu's words, she also knew her husband's temper, so she smiled and said, "Sister Xiqing, you just listen to your big brother Zhu!" This thing really doesn't cost much money, and it just so happens to be on the way! Hurry up, listen to your sister-in-law, put away the silver ticket! ”
Seeing this, Du Xiqing knew that the two husbands and wives were warm-hearted people, so she quickly put away the silver ticket, and said unceremoniously: "That's okay, since Brother Zhu and sister-in-law are also enthusiastic, Xiqing is better to be respectful than to obey!" But after Zhu Yu gets it back, I want to treat Brother Zhu and Sister-in-law to a good meal, and please don't shirk when the time comes! ”
"This relationship is good, I've always heard that Duran's craftsmanship is good, we can't miss this!" Zhu responded with a smile.
After saying this, Du Xiqing knew that Zhu Ziyu and his wife were about to part, and they must have a lot of intimate things to say, so they didn't stay there to be annoying. So after a few words of greeting, she found an excuse to come out.
Tianyou City, Liufu.
Liu Sanyuan, who had just come back, had not yet taken a complete rest, and was blocked in his home by a group of debt collectors. Seeing the huge bills, Liu Sanyuan suddenly felt a headache.
He really didn't expect that in just ten days after he left, the people in his family would owe so much silver.
After settling all the bills with a black face, Liu Sanyuan's face at this time was darker than the ash at the bottom of the pot.
Looking at this home, Liu Sanyuan suddenly felt tired, but his mind involuntarily sounded the scene of living in Du's house back then.
At that time, he and the Du family got along very well, and after a long time, Liu Sanyuan didn't seem to want to leave that house. If it weren't for his second uncle who came out to stir up, maybe he would still live in harmony with the Du family at this time, and he also got the Qingmo inkstone by the way.
Thinking of this, Liu Sanyuan's heart was full of unwillingness. The three rooms of the Liu family, which belong to their own three rooms, are now weak, and their father is not angry, and there are not many capable people of his own generation, all of them are straw bales waiting for death. If it weren't for the fact that he was the eldest son, Liu Sanyuan really wanted to get rid of this family's blood-sucking locust.
If these people are becoming more and more disagreeable now, Liu Sanyuan can no longer tolerate these moths living in his mansion. Liu Sanyuan didn't know what he was thinking, but his eyes were getting more and more determined.
The people in the third room of the Liu family originally thought that Liu Sanyuan would definitely be furious when he came back this time, because the people in the family had really spent a lot of money during this time. Just when everyone was trembling and waiting for Liu Sanyuan to settle the accounts, they miraculously found that after Liu Sanyuan paid the bill, he didn't come to everyone to trouble at all.
Even Liu Sanyuan's parents thought it was very strange, because according to Liu Sanyuan's usual style, everyone would definitely suffer this time. This time it was calm, and it seems that this storm is still to come!
But despite this, after being cautious for two days, everyone saw that Liu Sanyuan had no movement, and gradually relieved their hearts.
But Liu Sanyuan's parents don't think so, as time goes by, the two haven't even seen Liu Sanyuan since Liu Sanyuan came back, so it is conceivable that their son is really angry this time. Originally, he sent someone to warn everyone to be more restrained, but who knows, but no one is obedient, and he still goes his own way.
Sure enough, Liu Sanyuan began to make big moves later. First of all, Liu Sanyuan put words in the large and small shops in Tianyou City, all the Liu family three rooms want to buy things and ask the store to collect cash, if anyone still hangs on Liu Sanyuan's head, then if you can't get the money, you can only think that you are unlucky!
Immediately afterwards, the food and clothing in the Liu family's house began to shrink, and the delicacies of the mountains and seas were gone, and even chicken, duck and fish were rarely served. Nowadays, it is very convenient in the kitchen, and you only need to boil some porridge, steam some steamed buns, and then pickle some side dishes every day.
The three rooms of the Liu family eat all these things from top to bottom, and even Liu Sanyuan is no exception. If you want to eat well, you can just pay for it yourself.
As a result, after two days of implementation, people who eat steamed bread, gruel and pickles every day, and whose mouths have faded to water, began to make a big fuss. And the first to jump out was Liu Sanyuan's fifth sister Liu Yunxi, I saw that she ran to her mother and father's room first and cried, but when she saw that her parents didn't seem to want to be in charge at all, they hurried to Liu Sanyuan's yard.
At this time, Liu Sanyuan saw Liu Yunxi rushing in with an angry face, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth, and then said jokingly: "The fifth sister came to the eldest brother's yard in such a hurry, but she didn't miss her eldest brother for a while?" ”
Liu Yunxi glanced at Liu Sanyuan, so he said angrily: "Big brother, what the hell is going on with you!" As a junior, how can I let my parents eat white flour steamed buns with side dishes every day. When this is said, everyone is going to laugh out of their big teeth! The dignified Liu family's three-bedroom is already poor like this! ”
Liu Yunxi is also smart, and he didn't say that he couldn't stand it, but said it in the name of filial piety. As soon as these words came out, it seemed to point out how unfilial Liu Sanyuan, who was a son, and let his parents eat so simply!
"Our Liu family's third room is indeed poor like this, this steamed bun and pickles have just begun, and I will sell some people in the next step. If the back is really unable to support it, even the house can't be saved. So fifth sister, I advise you, while you still have to live at this time, hurry up and cherish the blessings! Liu Sanyuan said with a cold face.
"What? Is your family already poor? I don't believe it, big brother, you have made so much money, you don't even take it out, and now it's just a matter of asking us to eat steamed buns, you still have to sell slaves and maids, and sell houses? Liu Yunxi couldn't believe what her ears heard.
Hearing Liu Yunxi's words, Liu Sanyuan's face was angry and loud, only to see that he suddenly smashed the basic ledger in front of him towards Liu Yunxi, and then roared angrily: "If you don't believe it, if you don't believe it, just come and see how much money you people have spent on me!" You still have a reason to accuse me, see for yourself how much you spend! ”
Liu Yunxi didn't expect her eldest brother to suddenly go berserk, and the ledger was thrown over and smashed into her body at once.
Ignoring the pain on his body, Liu Yunxi took out a ledger on his body. It just so happens that this account book records the expenses of everyone in the house today.
Gently turning the page of herself, Liu Yunxi saw at a glance how much silver she had talked about over the years, and she remembered everything she had done with every amount of silver in the back.
After seeing this qiē, Liu Yunxi's eyes darkened. Gritting his teeth, Liu Yunxi looked at other people's expenses again, and it turned out that almost everyone was spending money so lavishly and uncontrollably. And when the amount of money spent accumulates, it's shocking.
After reading it, Liu Yunxi let go of his hand, and the account book fell to the place at once, and he said to himself: "It's so possible, how can there be so many?" ”
Seeing Liu Yunxi's expression, Liu Sanyuan suddenly showed a sarcastic smile.
"Well, see how much money you guys are spending, right? Do you still think our family still has money? Are you still going to say that I don't take money to subsidize you? ”
By now, Liu Sanyuan had already planned to tear his face.
He stood up, then looked at Liu Yunxi and said, "Now I can let you eat white flour steamed buns and pickles, which is already very kind to you!" Don't worry, I'll ask you for every money I write down here! Don't you boast that you are very filial to your parents? When the pot can't be opened at home, I will marry you to a rich man, and with your fine skin and tender meat, I will definitely be able to make up for the money you spent! ”R1152
