Chapter 39: An Explanation to My Grandmother

Although Bai Xiaocao doesn't know how to count, she still knows a lot about two hundred and seventy-eight wen, and her eldest brother used to work for three hundred wen a month.

She asked Bai Yunduo excitedly in a whisper: "Sister, that's all for a day, is that why we can pay off our foreign debts in a year or two?" "She's got the experience before, and this time she's not shouting loudly.

Bai Yunduo said: "Well, but they must not tell the truth to their grandmother, otherwise they will not be able to live a good life separately." ”

Bai Xiaocao's head nodded like a chicken pecking rice: "I know, I don't say anything, I don't know anything, I just sit on the side and watch, I don't know." ”

Bai Yunduo looked at his sister approvingly: "Smart." Just say that, if you ask them in the future, you just don't know anything, remember? ”

Bai Xiaocao responded: "Remember." ”

The two sisters went on the official road, walked fast, and stopped talking, and after returning to the village, they arrived at Fang Hongzhu's house first.

Today, Fang Hongzhu went out of the car to pull things for people, but he was not at home, when they went in, Mo Lanxiang was drying clothes in the yard.

Seeing them come in, Mo Lanxiang beckoned them: "Yunduo, what are you two sisters doing here, why do you still have a wooden shelf?" ”

Bai Yunduo came to Mo Lanxiang and said, "Auntie, Xiaocao and I went to sell jewelry, and I just came back, I ask you for help." ”

Mo Lanxiang said: "What is there to say in the house." You little faces are so cold, go into the house and drink some water. ”

Bai Yunduo and Bai Xiaocao followed Mo Lanxiang into the house, and Mo Lanxiang poured water for them: "Drink some hot water." ”

Bai Yunduo thanked Mo Lanxiang and drank a bowl of water, which was indeed a lot more comfortable.

Then she put the buns on the kang: "Auntie, we bought meat buns, leave two for Brother Zhipeng, and the rest of the troublesome aunts will be sent to my family later, if we bring them back, I'm afraid my mother and my brother won't be able to eat them." ”

Mo Lanxiang looked at those buns and was a little surprised: "Yunduo, why did you buy so much?" Where did you get the money? ”

Bai Yunduo put the 100 yuan that was distributed before on the kang and said: "Auntie saw the jewelry we made before, Xiaocao and I went to the market today to sell it, and earned some money, of course, there is no deduction of capital, but these can't all be taken home, otherwise my grandmother and uncle will be red-eyed, and things will be in trouble, so I beg my aunt to send these money and buns to my mother in a while, so that my mother can hide the money, and I will go back to pay the errand." ”

Mo Lanxiang looked at the hundred Wen and said in surprise: "Yunduo, you sold it for so much money this morning?" ”

What Bai Yunduo can trust now is Mo Lanxiang, at least in the memory of the original owner for more than ten years, this Lanxiang aunt is really good to them.

Although I can't tell the truth completely, there is something that I don't need to hide: "Well, but we don't sell it every day, we have to do it for three or five days, go once, and then we have to buy something, there are costs, and we have to pay booth fees or something, but in general, the business is good." ”

Mo Lanxiang breathed a sigh of relief and nodded: "That's good, if you don't want to go to your family and owe twenty taels of silver, I can't sleep, don't worry, my aunt knows in her heart, I'll go to your house in a while, you two go back early, so as not to let your family see it and suspect something." ”

The white clouds should fall, and Mo Lanxiang went home with the white grass to rest.

When I got home, as soon as I entered the door, Bai Mingyue was guarding the door: "Bai Yunduo, grandmother asked you to come back and go to the room first." ”

Bai Yunduo looked at Bai Mingyue: "You have been greeting me at the door?" You're not tired. ”

Bai Mingyue knew that Bai Yunduo's words were squeezing her, but she didn't have the words to fight back for a while, and her angry eyes were red, why did Bai Yunduo become so difficult to deal with now? In the past, she used to make things difficult for her, but now she can't fight, and she can only hope that they will be wronged by her grandmother for a while.

So Bai Mingyue didn't speak, and walked in front of her angrily.

Bai Yunduo and Bai Xiaocao followed Bai Mingyue to the upper room, and when they entered the house, they saw Yuan sitting on the kang, and Bai Lotus and Bai Mengjiao learned a new handkerchief pattern on the side, the two of them talked and laughed, and when they saw Bai Yunduo coming in, they also stopped what they were doing and looked over.

Yuan looked at Bai Yunduo and asked, "How much money have you earned today?" Take it out and I'll help you count it, you're young, and you've seen a lot of money, so don't make a mistake when the time comes. ”

Bai Yunduo knew that the Yuan family wanted to check her, and she didn't mind showing the rest of the money to the Yuan family, it would be convenient to fool the Yuan family today, otherwise it might not be a good thing to always make the Yuan family have doubts in his heart.

She put the remaining more than 160 Wen in front of Yuan's family: "This is the money for this sale." ”

These are the two hundred and eighty wen, the booth fee of two wen, and the deduction of the money for meals and buns, and everything that is left after the one hundred wen hidden in the Fang family.

The reason why I didn't hide more is because the price of a jewelry is not too much of a lie, the uncle is in the town, he wants to know the approximate price is easy, although he will have things at different prices in the future, but the approximate price is there, it can be said that someone has bargained, it can also be said that some styles are cheap, but too little is impossible, so these must be taken out, of course, she still has a trick.

Yuan Shi looked at so much, and began to sum up in his heart, if this is these every day, isn't it a few taels a month?

Then the money they owe will be paid off in half a year, and won't all the money they earn in the future be their own?

Bai Mengjiao was also stunned, she also went over to count the money with the Yuan family, and she didn't believe it and took the copper coin to shine in the sun, and she didn't know what she wanted to see clearly.

The white lotus's jealous face immediately came out: "Bai Yunduo, you won't steal money, right?" ”

Bai Yunduo glanced at the white lotus: "I don't have your hobbies." ”

Bai Lotus turned around in her mind for a moment before she realized that Bai Yunduo was scolding her: "Bai Yunduo, don't go too far." ”

At this time, the Yuan family had something to say to Bai Yunduo, and she said to the white lotus: "You stop the meeting." Then she said to Bai Yunduo with bright eyes: "In the future, you will hand over all the money you earn, and your grandmother will save it for you, which is enough to pay off the debt, and then let your uncle send it to Mu Gongzi." ”

Bai Yunduo knew that there was this, so he nodded and said, "Well, I am also willing to let my grandmother help me save money, otherwise I am afraid of losing it." But grandmother, not all this money is earned, you can't put it all here, because making jewelry also costs money, copper wire, scraps, those tools, are all money, that is all I got on credit from Mu Gongzi, and I told Mu Gongzi that the money I gave to the last goods when I went to buy the goods next time, and I took a total of 300 Wen last time, which is enough for a month. ”

As soon as Yuan Shi heard the three hundred texts, his face immediately changed: "What do you mean?" Three hundred texts? That means it's not enough for you to buy this month? ”

Bai Yunduo nodded: "Well, it's not enough, you have to spread it two or three times to be able to pay the capital." ”

Yuan still calculated, this is okay, even if it is enough to go for three days, what about thirty days a month: "Okay, then you can hurry up and go to the stall tomorrow." ”
