Chapter Eighty-Nine: Why
"My good girl, a hundred taels." Father Wen swallowed his saliva, sat down with his chest covered, and said sternly: "It's been a long time since I've seen you boldly, you dare to go alone, and you're not afraid that people will beat you?" ”
"Isn't that nothing?" Wen smiled a little disapprehantly.
When Father Wen saw his daughter like that, he also knew that she wouldn't listen to what he said now, not to mention his daughter, even if he was not at peace now. One hundred taels, really one hundred taels, he has never seen so much money in his life, and he got it so smoothly? Father Wen thought of something, and said hurriedly: "Have you found someone to see it, don't be bluffed." ”
gave up his face and finally got a fake silver ticket, which was really all gone.
"Dad, don't worry, I went to the money bank to ask, is it true, or is it a nationwide exchange." Wen is not a fool, she doesn't understand and doesn't know how to ask someone? But she also thought about it in front of so many people, and the other party didn't dare to play any tricks, and if they made trouble afterwards, they still had no face.
Father Wen breathed a sigh of relief, but then his brows furrowed again, in the end, he was older, and he looked at things in the long run. If you want to shoot casually, it will be a hundred taels, and you must have a lot of money, and you don't dare to play tricks for the sake of face, but it will be bad to retaliate afterwards. There is another layer, after all, in front of everyone's eyes, the mother-in-law first agreed with others that the daughter was dishonest by doing this, which not only swept her mother-in-law's face, but also the outside reputation was not necessarily good.
Wen didn't notice his father's worries, and still said, "Dad, don't you see the clothes around those two people, and they are extravagant." As soon as I asked for a hundred taels, they gave me money without saying a word. It seems that my heart is too soft. Rich people don't pay attention to this bit of silver at all, and they should have asked for more if they knew it. ”
A hundred taels is enough. Do you still want to be greedy? But it's still dangerous, and there are a few rich people who are not scrupulous, and if they don't give money, they will be beaten. In the end, he felt sorry for his daughter more than silver, and Father Wen sighed: "Why do you put yourself in such a dangerous position for a few money, Dad remembers that you are not this kind of person who is greedy for money and does not care about his life." His daughter understood that if he really wanted money, how could he choose Li Qiang, an honest poor boy, from so many people who asked for marriage, and he was much better off than his family, and he didn't see her waver. Now the eldest child of both is almost ten years old. Instead, do you care about the silver taels?
The heat in Wen's eyes dissipated, and he carefully folded the silver ticket in half and put it close to his body. Sit upright, put your hands flat on your thighs, and tell Daddy Wen what happened the night before.
"Are you saying that Li Qiang was so worried about Dashan's enrollment that he thought of being hit on purpose and giving Dashan some money to study?" Father Wen thought for a moment and came to such an inference, but as soon as the words came out, he frightened himself, and turned his head to look at Li Qiang who was lying on the bed. Gritted his teeth and whispered, "This fool is really crazy." ”
Although Daddy Wen doesn't look down on the poor Li Qiang, he still likes it in his heart. People's hearts are flesh and blood, and Li Qiang has a similar temperament to him. is very filial to him, except for being poor in words, he really can't find fault. Earlier, he said that Li Qiang would immediately let his daughter remarry after he died. is worried that his daughter will suffer.
If you want money and don't die, you're not crazy. How many normal people can do this kind of thing? Life is gone, no matter how much money you can't enjoy, it really makes Dashan use the money his father got in exchange for his life to study. The mountains can't do it either. This bastard boy, didn't he take into account that he still has three children before making this move, how can the child grow up safely without the protection of his father?!
"You guess it's your mind." Calming down a little, Daddy Wen still didn't believe it, why didn't his son-in-law resist pressure at all? Then what else can he expect from Li Qiang, his daughter's future has no hope at all, and he has to worry about Li Qiang's safety, so it is better to leave early.
Daddy Wen wouldn't think there was anything wrong with Dashan missing his studies. Originally, it was not the past, there were seven or eight children, and it was very difficult for parents to raise their children without starving to death or freezing to death, so how could there be any money for their children to study and become officials. Dashan wants to study and get ahead, that is Dashan knows to be motivated, he is a father who grits his teeth and wants to support it, bitter for a while, sweet for a lifetime, short-sighted, really short-sighted! Father Wen thought with some hatred that iron could not become steel, if Li Qiang was sober now, he would really want to give Li Qiang a pipe.
Wen's hand on his thigh clenched slightly, his expression was a little painful, and he was a little afraid, his eyes instantly turned red, and he choked up: "I hope not, but now I can't let me think so." ”
Father Wen remembered that most of what she said just now was the situation where she forced Li Qiang, and there was a trace of silence. Wen's elaboration. Haggard and again.
After a while, Daddy Wen moved his lips: "Sometimes, having money is not necessarily a good thing. ”
Hearing his father say this, Wen understood that his father was no longer angry, and it was his biological father who felt more sorry for himself. She also understood what her father meant, there are so many brothers in the Li family, how can there be no one who is not greedy? He sniffed and said in an urn voice, "But now it seems that it is a good thing." ”
Then, there was silence in the room for a while, and no one noticed that Li Qiang's fingers moved.
***
He Shi watched Li Qiu's carrying the iron rake away a little inexplicably, and they all came to ask about Li Qiang's injury, and sighed that she had a good daughter-in-law who was angry. What is this, she knows that Li Qiang can't hide the collision, and she doesn't plan to hide it, so it's not surprising that someone in the tunzi knows about her. But what's the matter with coming over to praise her daughter-in-law one by one? Her two daughters-in-law are at home, one is in the town, and the other is accompanying the third child, who has done something earth-shattering? It wasn't until someone came directly to her and asked her how much her third daughter-in-law respected her that she understood that it was the Wen family who had caused trouble again. But she can't pull someone's sleeve and ask clearly, doesn't that mean she doesn't know anything? He had a haha in his mouth, and he was full of questions that needed to be answered. Thinking of Li Cong, who had been to the town to deliver food today, he quickly dropped the work in his hand and went to the field to ask for an understanding.
"Yo, did you say that the third daughter-in-law ran to cry and ask for money? must have wanted to hide it and put it in his pocket, no wonder my mother left with a bad face. Yu bumped Yang Liu with his shoulder, looking like he was sharing gossip.
Yang Liu was speechless, should he praise Yu's big strip or menopause, he was incompatible with her for a while, and he wanted to say a word to rip off a piece of meat on her body, and for a while he looked like a good sister, and came over to bite his ear and gossip.
Before Yang Liu could speak, Yu had already realized that the person in front of her was Yang Liu, who she had been looking down on, and suddenly her gossip expression was closed, her chin was raised and her head was tilted, she snorted heavily, and walked away with a broom in both hands.
It's an old aunt, where did you learn this arrogant stinky problem? Yang Liu slandered in her heart, but she didn't want the tail of the ox to be thrown in her face, so she slapped her face nakedly. Yang Liu suddenly looked murderously at the old scalper next door who was a few steps away from her.
There was a "flutter", and someone laughed quietly. Yang Liu turned his head and suddenly saw Xiao He who was smiling with his hand covering his mouth. noticed that Yang Liu was looking at her, and waved her hand at Yang Liu embarrassedly. Yang Liu turned his head boringly, squinted at the old scalper in front of him, and thought about how to clean up this beast.
***
While cutting the wheat stalk, Li Cong told Dashan to take good care of his younger brother and not let him sneak away to play in the water. Children don't remember to eat, the first time I didn't sleep on a kang with my father and my brother and sister, and I thought it was fresh to sleep with my grandmother, so I forgot that I watched his father cry yesterday. At this moment, he was playing with great interest with the grasshoppers that the mountain had woven for him from wild grass.
"Fifth uncle, I'll watch it." Dashan responded: "Fifth uncle, the sun is too hot, you can come and rest for a while." ”
"Fifth Uncle is not tired." Li Cong took the time to look at the mountain: "Be careful, don't run into the sun." ”
The child's flesh is tender, and the tan is not good for white, and he can remember that the willow said that he was too dark, as if a large piece of wood had been burned.
This is a vulgar metaphor! He glanced at his muscular arms, oozing with sweat and reflecting a rainbow of light in the sunlight. Hmph, the most attractive thing for a man is strength, not face. It's a pity that there are too many people in this world who judge people by their appearance, Li Cong shook his head with some regret, and even his wife didn't notice his charm.
Li Cong, who was bending down to bundle wheat stalks, heard He Shi shout, "Old five." ”
Li Cong responded, let go of the grass knot in his hand, lifted the handkerchief around his neck and wiped his sweat, and asked as he walked: "Mother, why are you here, what's the matter?" ”
He turned sideways, beckoned Li Cong to stand in the shade of the tree, and asked, "Did you hear anything about your third brother when you went to the town today?" ”
Li Cong was also a little confused, "It's nothing, what's wrong, is someone gossiping?" "He's in a hurry to go home to work, and he's not the one who likes to join in the fun, even if there's any gossip today, he won't care. Besides, he didn't stay long, asked a few words about Li Qiang's situation, put down the basket and left. He is now a male laborer in the family, and he doesn't pay attention to it, but the whole family is tired.
Just listening to this sentence, He knew that she had asked in vain. Originally, I saw that Li Cong was fast, and when he came back from delivering food, he could hurry up and do more work. But she didn't want to use the temperament of the fifth child, how could she listen to gossip or rumors, but she thought about it for a while.
Dashan walked up to the two of them with an iron pillar and called grandma obediently. He smiled and nodded, and told them not to run around, and obediently listened to the fifth uncle's words and turned back. The matter was not asked, and the work could not be delayed. Later, the most important thing is to take care of the present.
By the way, how do you say that? (To be continued......)
