Chapter 134: Debts Grow Exonentially, and Ma is dumbfounded
I heard that I was going to sell New Year's pigs, and I was really stupid at this time.
"Old man, you're crazy, you can't sell the pig!"
Ai Mingshan gritted his teeth, "I sold it for money, Qiaoqiao didn't take anything from our family when she shared it with her mother, so we can't take her money." ”
Ma Shi hurriedly patted the edge of the kang, "We are borrowing her money, not taking it or not giving it, she is your granddaughter, and it is not right for you to be honored with money!" ”
Ai Qiaoqiao looked at Ma Shi and suddenly interjected: "Milk, I have an idea, what kind of money do we make, my sister-in-law is going to marry Yuwen Gongzi, just take out a few pieces of the dowry gifts he sent to pay off the debt, what kind of pigs are sold." ”
As soon as these words came out, Ai Qiaohua jumped up, "Ai Qiaoqiao, see if I don't tear your mouth!" ”
Ai Qiaoqiao had already taken precautions, hid behind Ai Mingshan, and said innocently: "Master, look at my sister-in-law......"
"Stop!" Ai Mingshan scolded.
Ai Qiaohua was still afraid of her father, so she had to take it.
"Qiaoqiao's idea doesn't work, and the pretty dowry can't be moved." Ma Shi flatly refused, "Yuwen has given a lot of dowries, but our family still has return gifts, most of them have been returned, and the rest have to buy a dowry for Qiaohua, we can't let people look down on us." ”
Ai Qiaoqiao pouted secretly.
is reluctant to move the dowry, it seems that Ma's is really sorry for this old girl who is herself.
"It's just for you to come up with a bunch of money, and it's up to you to push back." Ma Shi glared at Ai Qiaoqiao, "Your heart and eyes are just like your mother......"
Seeing that Ma was about to start using her mother as a raft again, Ai Qiaoqiao said: "Then take the jewelry I put in my grandmother, and my mother's, those jewelry are enough to make up a penny." ”
Ma froze.
Because Ai Qiaoqiao hadn't mentioned this matter for too long, she had long forgotten about it.
As long as the thing is in her hand, it is her thing, how can she still remember that this is Ai Qiaoqiao's family's thing.
"Grandma can't have forgotten about this, has she?" Ai Qiaoqiao blinked her eyes, looking innocent, "Grandma take out the jewelry, I'll choose a few pieces and take them to the city tomorrow." ”
Ma's mouth fluttered a few times.
She couldn't take out the jewelry, and those jewelry had already been made for her, and it was all used as the money for Ai Qiaohua's dowry.
Ai Qiaoqiao had already guessed it, but she pretended not to know: "Milk, hurry up and take out the things, the jewelry of me and my mother is real gold, which one can be worth some silver if you take it out." ”
"Nonsense, how can there be so much money." Ma reprimanded.
"Of course there is, I don't believe that grandma took out the things and showed them to the master, the master definitely knows the goods." Ai Qiaoqiao praised her grandfather here, and quietly pushed Ma to a desperate situation over there.
Looking at Ma's hesitant appearance, Ai Mingshan didn't understand.
But he still has to save some face for his mother-in-law, and he can't let her lose the last face in front of her granddaughter.
"Forget it, you don't have to take it, let your milk pick up tomorrow." Ai Mingshan said with difficulty.
"Nacheng, anyway, I can trust my milk, so let my milk give me an IOU." Ai Qiaoqiao said happily.
"What...... What the? Ma thought he had misheard.
"An IOU." Ai Qiaoqiao smiled, "Grandma doesn't even know this, I won't ask for more money, just hang the IOU." ”
Mac's teeth rattled.
She didn't ask for a lot of money from Qiaoqiao's dead girl, and now she owes the other party a lot of money.
"Milk, don't be angry, I'm young and ignorant." Ai Qiaoqiao picked herself up first, "My mother is mentally incomplete, I can't guarantee that I won't be able to remember it after a long time, and I won't forget it when I have an IOU, and besides, we are all our own family, how can you not pay me back this money, master, you say yes." ”
Ai Mingshan's face turned pale, and he could only nod stiffly.
Ai Qiaoqiao said intimately, "If my eldest uncle can't come up with the money, why don't I make up the money together, and my grandmother will take one more piece of jewelry to the city tomorrow and be the second money...... Oh, it's so troublesome, you can go directly to the three hanging money, if those jewelry can solve the family's urgency, I don't feel distressed at all. ”
Ma touched his heart: she was distressed!
"Milk, you can just write me an IOU for three dollars, so as to save me trouble with my uncle and their family." Ai Qiaoqiao said heroically.
Ma's eyes were red, if Ai Mingshan was not there at this time, she would even want to pounce and strangle Ai Qiaoqiao.
The more Ma Shi is like this, the happier Ai Qiaoqiao's heart is.
Let you be eccentric, let you pick the door, let you be greedy for my mother's things, and let you spit out a little bit in the future.
At this moment, Qiu suddenly entered the door.
"Qiaoqiao is really filial." She smiled and flattered, "We didn't think of this method for a long time." ”
Ma Shi turned his head to stare at Qiu, gritted his teeth and said, "Are you done with all the kitchen work, do you have the kung fu to grind your teeth here?" ”
"There's the Fang Clan here." Qiu Shilai refused to leave in the house, "It's rare to have a clever mind, mother, I think this is a good idea." ”
Not bad...... Not a bad one!
Ma Shi trembled angrily, but he couldn't speak.
Ai Qiaoqiao knew the truth of accepting it when she saw it, and got up and said: "Milk, you don't have to worry, the IOU will be given to me tomorrow when you come back after you finish making jewelry, and I will come to ask my master tomorrow night." ”
The corners of Ai Mingshan's eyes jumped a few times, he didn't breathe evenly, and coughed chokingly.
Ai Qiaoqiao hurriedly stepped forward and gave him a beating on the back with concern.
Ai Mingshan waved his hand again and again.
Ai Qiaoqiao walked away with the empty food box.
As soon as she left the courtyard with her front feet, Ma's angry scolding came from the upper room behind.
Qiu ran out of the upper room as if he was running away.
Ma's angry scolding was mixed with Ai Mingshan's voice, as well as Ai Qiaohua's weak persuasion.
Ai Qiaoqiao did not go far, but turned to the side of the courtyard and hid behind the courtyard wall to listen.
"I know that the fox spirit is not a good ......," Ma scolded, "it was calculated on my head, and my conscience was eaten by the dogs, if I hadn't kindly taken them in, I would have let them beg on the street if they had changed to another house!" ”
"If it weren't for you, my mother and I wouldn't have had to work so hard." Ai Qiaoqiao squatted on the wall with the food box and muttered.
Ma's voice quickly lowered, presumably persuaded by Ai Mingshan.
Ai Qiaoqiao listened for a while, and when she saw that there was no movement, she got up and left.
In the room, Ma sat there panting, and Ai Qiaohua kept using her hands to smooth her breath.
"Mother, what are you angry with that cheap girl, it's not worth it to be angry."
Ai Mingshan glared at Ai Qiaohua, "What kind of cheap girl, the more you live, the more you go back?" ”
Ai Qiaohua pursed her mouth aggrievedly, "Originally...... She is a bad person and deliberately makes my mother angry. ”
"If you didn't take other people's things, would you be so ashamed of them in front of you?" Ai Mingshan knocked the ground with his cane, "I'll blush for you!" ”
Ma Shi was not convinced: "Isn't it just some jewelry, when Qiaohua marries into the Yuwen Gongzi's mansion, what do you want, you want gold and silver, you just sit on the kang and wait to enjoy the blessings...... I couldn't help but touch their jewelry...... Yonggui hasn't paid money to his family for a long time, and you still have to provide him with silver every month, so that he can honor his master...... How can there be extra money at home......"
Ai Mingshan sighed, lowered his head and stopped talking.
Seeing that he was silent, Ma's momentum weakened a little, "The matter of the IOU ......"
"No matter how much, just give Qiaoqiao." Ai Mingshan said firmly.
Ma's eyes suddenly stood up, "Do I still owe her!" ”
"Whoever asked you to touch their things, isn't it just three hanging money, and when the pretty flowers get married, they will make up for it when the time comes." Mount Emin Road.
"But what about the Wang family's three hanging money?" Ma's was really a little panicked, the three hangs of money owed by the Wang family had not been settled, but she owed Ai Qiaoqiao money first.
"Let Qiaohua send a letter to Yuwen Gongzi, borrow it from him first." Ai Mingshan is a strong person, and it is not easy for him to say this.
Seeing this, Ma had no choice but to turn his head to look at his daughter.
