Chapter 407: Wang Yu Nian's New Life (3) Gold
So from the easternmost part of the Ming Dynasty, the relatively prosperous Johor Bahru City. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info crossed thousands of miles, across the ocean to the relatively primitive Xinhua Province. Months of running around really hurt her.
It is precisely for this reason that he also has a sense of guilt towards Wang Li. After all, in addition to the male protagonist, he should have given his wife and children a relatively comfortable environment. But now, life is tight. I broke my heart every day for firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea, and I was really helpless.
This is also his failure as a man!
But when he thinks about it, he still pretends to be happy on his face. After all, he is the head of the family and must show his due responsibility. He called out to his family and went into the house to eat.
It's just that as soon as he entered the door, he found that today is very different from the past. Because of the original three-legged and outdated large round table, it was suddenly replaced by a four-legged square wooden table painted with red paint. There are also four more chairs that are also painted red.
And on the table, there are also five dishes. There is a sultry chicken soup with leeks, braised pork ribs with a beautiful and beautiful meal, a light and refreshing green vegetable and tofu soup, shredded potatoes with orange and yellow, and a fragrant and delicious slice of meat.
Just looking at it makes people appetize.
And in this way, there are three plates of meat dishes on the table!
You must know that since their family was exiled here, they have eaten cabbage and drunk cabbage soup every day. Occasionally change to eggs, and the eggshells should be put in water to cook soup. And it has to be boiled in a large bowl, and the egg drops, like snow foam, are pitiful.
The best one was only a plate of stir-fried pork with green peppers. And at that time, in order to save, one or two pieces of meat were eaten for several days.
So much so that every time they eat, the children have to rummage through the plate for half a day to get a little bit of meat as small as their fingertips. That sad scene is distressing when you think about it.
But today, the sun is really coming out in the west! Not only did he fry three plates of meat dishes, but he also had a lot of meat color. With the family's financial situation, it can't be taken out no matter what.
Fortunately, he believes that his wife is not the kind of person who spends money indiscriminately and lives blindly. pressed the question in his heart and waited for Wang Li to say it himself.
At this time, Master Wang, who was sitting at the top, saw his son's doubts. immediately beckoned everyone to sit down, and said, "Hehehe, celebrate the New Year!" This is yesterday, your mother and I went to the mountains to collect firewood. It just so happened that I came across a sinkhole. I didn't pay attention at the time, and your mother fell with one kick. ”。
As he spoke, Master Wang pointed to Wang Liu's calf, and then said, "Fortunately, the Bodhisattva blesses you!" The sinkhole is not deep. After your mother fell, she only suffered a little skin trauma. As he spoke, he bowed three times to the Guanyin Bodhisattva enshrined on the tablet.
Liu Wang, who was serving the meal, that is, Wang Qingnian's mother, then answered: "I didn't think about it!" Under the pit that day, there was a large pile of gold. Your father and I thought that our family was so poor, so we secretly took some back.
No, when I asked Shuilian to go to the market to sell cloth in the morning, I asked her to exchange some Huayuan and come back. I thought about buying some food to make up for my grandchildren's bodies. ”。
Speaking of which, Master Wang sat back at the table. Half regretful, half frustrated, he sighed: "It's all our old couple's fault!" If you didn't believe the instigation of the old lady Wang and Wang Qingnian, we would have been included in the genealogy of the Wang family. Later, there was no need to be affected. Not only did he lose his errand, but he was also sent to this poor country.
Even nationality has been lost. I don't know if our family can expect this nationality bonus. ”。 Although Da Ming also announced the pardon, Master Wang thinks. In the case of the royal family, it is impossible to pardon. So he doesn't think about it either. I only hope that nationality can be added to the points, so that the family can become a real Ming person.
In that case, he and his wife can also go to the city to find some work to do. For example, sweeping the streets, or helping people look at the shops. Lest you be at home every day, unable to do anything and waiting to die, as you are now.
In vain, it has become a drag.
Thinking like this, Old Man Wang's heart was even more uncomfortable. He sighed, looked at the little granddaughter leaning back in the chair, reading Chinese characters aloud according to the picture book, and said sadly: "Hey! Every time I hear that Huahua is going to school, we are the old couple, and it hurts my heart. As he spoke, he made a chest-beating motion. provoked Wang Yunian and Wang Li, and hurriedly stepped forward to appease.
Huahua, who was looking at the picture book, immediately came over sensibly. With his little arms and legs, he crawled into the arms of Mr. Wang and his wife, and touched their tears. And said in a milky voice: "Grandparents don't cry." Huahua knows how to read, is it good to teach you to read? ”。
While talking, he also memorized "Spring Dawn".
Mr. Wang and his wife immediately held back their tears and choked up and said several obedient words.
Since this is Wang Qingnian's youngest daughter, she is also well-behaved and lovable. So usually, the family spoils her. Previously, when she was in Johor Bahru, Huahua also went to kindergarten. But here you go, live in the country. Within a radius of ten miles, there are only a few households.
It is so scarce that there are no conditions for opening a kindergarten. Even the school has to go to the city far away. Wang Qingnian's eldest son and second son lived in the city. Except for weekends, I basically don't go home.
Of course, kindergartens are also found in the city, and they don't take money from outsiders. But it's far away, and it's not convenient to pick up and drop. So Wang Qingnian didn't spend any time going to school.
So now, Huahua always likes to go to school. Every time he heard this, Wang Yunian and his wife were also sad.
After comforting the two elders for a while, the family sat down to eat.
But Wang Qingnian did not pick up the dishes and chopsticks, but said worriedly: "Daddy, Auntie, if I say something unpleasant, don't blame me." ”。
As soon as he said this, Mr. Wang and Wang Liu, who had just picked up the rice bowl, put down the dishes and chopsticks. Wang Li, who was standing aside and greeting the children, also immediately snatched the dishes and chopsticks from the children's hands and told them not to eat.
The relatively relaxed atmosphere on the table was suddenly a little solemn.
Seeing this, Wang Qingnian pressed the unbearability in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "There are regulations in the Ming Dynasty that except for gold and silver jewelry, private individuals cannot hide gold. Does Daddy and Auntie still know about this? ”。
Master Wang nodded and replied, "This knowledge is knowing!" But Xinhua Province is so far away from Mingjing, and the boundary where we live is so remote. So I thought, it shouldn't get in the way, right? ”。
Wang Qingnian immediately sighed heavily, and said in a deeper tone: "With our current situation. If it is discovered, it is a sin on top of a sin. Most likely, even this poor country will not be able to stay any longer. ”。
In this way, it is more serious.
Old Man Wang also turned white immediately, and muttered with some trepidation: "It shouldn't be found out, right?" ”。
As he spoke, a dog barked outside the house. When Wang Qingnian looked at it, he saw a team of uniformed policemen hurrying here. Wang Liu, who couldn't stand the fright, immediately rolled his eyes and fainted directly.
