Li Yuhuan took the three thousand yuan and said with a smile: "Why are you in such a hurry?" Our family is not waiting for money. ”

Bai Mengdie smiled lightly and said, "Pay it off early, it's a matter of heart early." ”

The old man glanced at the three thousand yuan in Li Yuhuan's hand, and asked Bai Mengdie with concern: "Your family has only earned some money and used it to pay off the debt, so is your family's capital enough?" ”

Bai Mengdie nodded: "Enough." ”

After the money was paid in full, Bai Mengdie told everyone about the arrangement for the second uncle's family and her uncle's family to send two hundred catties of crayfish to their family every day.

Bai Aimin's family was overjoyed, and they sent 200 catties of crayfish to the big house every day, and in addition to the road expenses, the net income was 80 yuan a day, and a few thousand yuan a month, which was higher than the monthly salary of the director of the state-owned factory.

And crayfish are easy to catch in the countryside, and making this money is like picking up money.

The old man said: "I will go to your grandfather's house after dinner tonight to send them the money, and by the way, tell them that they will send two hundred catties of crayfish to your family every day, and they will not send it on rainy days, and it will be postponed." ”

I couldn't help but complain: "Didn't I tell you, I wanted the crayfish to call back in advance, why didn't I call?" I run around town every day to see if I have your phone number. ”

Bai Mengdie explained: "I thought that I came early today anyway, so I didn't call, and I must remember to call in the future." ”

After saying what he had to say, the old man took the Erfang family and Chen Ziqian to pick the corn from the acre of land planted by the old lady.

The plaster in the old lady's left hand has not been removed, but she refuses to be idle, holding a large basket in her right hand to pick a basket of vegetables in the vegetable field for Bai Mengdie to take back to eat, saving the family money to buy vegetables.

It doesn't cost a lot of money to eat vegetables every day, and Bai Mengdie doesn't really want to bring vegetables back to the city.

But he couldn't bear to refuse the old lady's wishes, so he finally followed the old lady to pick vegetables in the vegetable field.

I just picked a vegetable two days ago and sold it at a food stall, and now there are only lentils, sword beans, bitter gourd, winter melon and other vegetables in the vegetable field.

The old lady put the basket on the ground and picked a loofah with her right hand and put it in the basket.

The loofah couldn't help but be put away, and it would be old after two days, so the old lady only picked four or five loofahs and didn't pick them.

Bai Mengdie loves to eat bitter gourds, so she picked seven or eight big green bitter gourds and threw them into the basket.

She doesn't like to eat fresh lentils, so the old lady didn't pick lentils, and was going to make pickles for her to eat, and Bai Mengdie likes to eat all kinds of pickles.

The old lady picked a few catties of sword beans, a few zucchini, the smallest winter melon and the largest pumpkin for Bai Mengdie to bring, saying that eating winter melon on this hot day can clear the fire, and her parents love to eat pumpkins.

The old lady patted several big green watermelons next to the pumpkin and said, "In half a month, these big watermelons will be ripe, so let your father come back and carry a few big watermelons back for you to eat." ”

They love to grow watermelons in the countryside in this area, but they are generally only eaten at home and rarely sold for them.

Every household grows it, but to whom do they sell it locally? Shipped to the city to sell? How can I get lucky without a car? How many can you pick by carrying the burden? The money from selling watermelons is not enough for the round-trip fare.

In recent years, there have been watermelon dealers, and many families have expanded their watermelon planting area.

In previous years, Mrs. Bai only planted a few watermelon vines, and produced more than a dozen watermelons to relieve the heat of her family, and this year she planted a small half acre of watermelons.

Bai Mengdie glanced at the green watermelon field and said, "When this piece of watermelon is ripe, keep a dozen of them to eat, and I will borrow Chen Ziqian's small truck to tow the rest to the city and sell it." ”

The old lady asked in a hurry, "Ziqian...... Why are you so willing to help our family? ”

Bai Mengdie knew the meaning of the old lady's words, and said speechlessly: "Grandma, the young people of our generation think differently from your older generation, as long as they can play, regardless of gender."

Don't think that there is anything between me and Chen Ziqian, there is nothing, I am a friend without gender in his eyes, and he is a good girlfriend in my eyes. ”

"Oh, that's it." The old lady grinned, "Grandma is really too old to keep up with the thoughts of you young people. "But I thought in my heart, how can a man be a good girlfriend?

However, her granddaughter didn't have that kind of idea, she was still quite happy in her heart, she always thought that Bai Mengdie would be happy when she married Shi Lei in the future.

No matter how good Chen Ziqian is to Bai Mengdie, it is useless, the door is not right, his parents will not look down on her baby.

Bai Mengdie pinched some pumpkin tips and pumpkin flowers by the way, these two farm dishes she had eaten in her previous life, they had a unique flavor, and she loved to eat them.

The old lady smiled and said, "The tip of the pumpkin is not as delicious as the stems, you can pick some of the stems and fry them with dried chili peppers, which is very delicious." ”

Bai Mengdie picked several catties of stalks.

After picking vegetables and picking a lot of tomatoes, the grandparents and grandchildren went back.

It was the time for lunch at 12 o'clock at noon, and many villagers were eating outside the courtyard with bowls.

The small courtyard of the farmhouse, which is not a wall or a house on all sides, blocks most of the wind, and those villagers who are afraid of heat love to eat outside the courtyard, which is windier and cooler.

Seeing the old lady and grandchildren, the villagers greeted them one after another and asked them if they had eaten.

The old lady smiled and said that she had already eaten it.

Some scheming villagers glanced at the big basket in Bai Mengdie's hand and asked, "Fluttershy, don't have any vegetables in your grandmother's house?" Can I only take such a little greens with me this time? ”

Bai Mengdie smiled and snorted.

Those villagers immediately said: "My vegetable garden is full of greens, no matter what kind of greens are sold to you for two cents a catty, how many miles it will take!" ”

The old lady sighed and said, "It's not easy to set up a food stall in the city, if you have a good business, I don't know how many people will compete with you for business."

Now my eldest son's food stall business is a big mess, or there are no vegetables, and even crayfish don't have much every day, thank you. With that, he took Bai Mengdie and left.

When she returned to her yard, the old lady said, "I can't let the people in the village know that your family is setting up a food stall in the city to make money, otherwise there are those who don't know how to let your family take them to make a fortune together."

Who will bring outsiders with them when they get rich? These people are really thick-skinned.

Reject them, you have made a feud invisibly, then it is better to say that your family's business is poor, and it is difficult for you to mix, who can you bring?

And this vegetable is not easy to buy from the villagers, if you buy this one, you have to buy that one, and if you don't buy one, you will offend people, so you don't buy anyone's at all. ”

Bai Mengdie nodded thoughtfully, no wonder there is a good saying, there is an old man in the family who has a treasure, and the experience of the old man is there, and he can't be convinced.

After a while, there was a sound of talking outside the door, it was the old man who had come back from picking corn.

Bai Mengdie hurriedly put down the water cup in his hand to help, and a full ten baskets of corn were placed next to Chen Ziqian's small truck.

The old man wiped the sweat on his face with a towel around his neck, and said to Bai Mengdie with a smile: "I don't know what kind of corn your grandmother planted, the yield is so high, each load has one or two hundred catties, and there must be one or two hundred catties per load, and there must be one thousand catties."

There is still a little corn in the field, let them grow, and you can eat the corn flower when the New Year is blown. ”

Bai Mengdie twitched the corners of her mouth embarrassedly, she was already a sixteen-year-old girl, but in the eyes of the old man, she was still like a few years old, and she was still thinking about preparing New Year's snacks for her~

Chen Ziqian leaned his head over and said coquettishly: "Grandpa, I also want to eat popcorn during the New Year~"

The old man smiled even more, "Whoever has our Fluttershy is yours." ”

Chen Ziqian smiled happily.

Everyone started to put the corn on the small truck, and they heard the sad and panicked cry of Yuanyuan's mother from Yuanyuan's house next door: "Yuanyuan, what's wrong with you?" Why did you faint so well? Don't scare Mom~"

Yuanyuan's father roared: "What's howl? Hurry up and send your daughter to the town health center to have a look. ”

More than a minute later, Yuanyuan's eldest brother rushed out of the courtyard with Yuanyuan on his back.

At this time, Yuanyuan woke up, and when he saw this, he struggled desperately and refused to go to the town clinic.

Yuanyuan's mother said anxiously on the side: "I'm dizzy, why don't you go to the health center to have a look?" Don't look at your mother, don't worry. ”

Yuan Yuan resolutely refused, bit her lip, and whispered to her mother: "Mom, I have something to tell you, and you won't let me go to the doctor after I say it." ”

Yuanyuan's mother said: "You must see the doctor, and I will talk about it later." ”

Brother Yuanyuan carried Yuanyuan on his back and continued to run to the town clinic, and Yuanyuan cried urgently.

Some villagers saw it and asked what was wrong.

Yuanyuan's mother raised her voice and said: "Yuanyuan's taste is not good during this time, and I have to brave the scorching heat to go to the town to sell cloth, my nutrition can't keep up, and I am heated, isn't this dizzy?" ”

A villager said something more: "The child has a bad appetite, you don't say to cook her something she wants to eat, the child's body is important, how can you be so stingy as a mother?"

Besides, what if those cloths can't be sold, you can't leave them to make clothes, and you won't waste them, so you have to force your children to set up stalls on hot days, and you will lose your body. ”

Yuanyuan's mother immediately shouted injustice: "Do you think I don't want to cook something delicious for my daughter, our family's money is all lost to others, how can I have the money to make good food for my daughter?"

It's just that I don't have any money, so I let my daughter go to the town to set up a stall to sell cloth, if someone helps our family sell the cloth, can my daughter go to the town to set up a stall to sell cloth under the scorching sun? It's all some people who are ruthless. ”

Bai Mengdie knew that Yuanyuan's mother was pointing at Sang and scolding Huai, so she immediately went back without naming her name: "You have to compensate for the losses caused to others, this is a matter of course, is it interesting to talk about this?"

It's understandable that people don't want to help the white-eyed wolf, and they also blame people, and their faces are really big! ”

Many villagers put on a show while eating.

But Yuanyuan's father became smarter, yelling at Yuanyuan's mother to shut up, and the family hurried to the town clinic.

When she ran out of the village, Yuanyuan saw that she was a family on the whole road, so she mustered up the courage and said: "Mom, I really can't go to the health center~"

Yuanyuan's mother asked in surprise: "Why can't you go~"

Yuan Yuan cried bitterly and said, "I ...... I might be pregnant......"

The whole family stood still as if they had been struck by lightning.

It took a while for Yuanyuan's mother to come back to her senses, slapped Yuanyuan off her eldest brother's back, and asked angrily: "You shameless thing, who are you fooling around with to get a big belly?" ”

Yuan Yuan was slapped by her mother and fell to the ground, covering the half of her face and crying: "I didn't fool around with anyone, it was the last time I went to the city to sell mushrooms, and I was given by the bad guys...... Give ......"

Although she didn't finish her sentence, the whole family knew that she had been ruined by the bad guys.

Yuanyuan's mother was still asking: "Didn't you say that you were deceived by a woman, why were you ...... by a man again?"

Yuanyuan's father interrupted her angrily: "It must be that my daughter is embarrassed to tell us about this, so she made up lies to deceive us." ”

Yuanyuan went to the city to sell mushrooms in order to earn more money for his family, and if he didn't sell mushrooms, he wouldn't have done this.

Yuanyuan's mother looked at Yuanyuan distressedly, squatted down to wipe her tears, and asked her guiltily if she had hurt her just now, and asked her to tell them what had been ruined.

Yuanyuan lowered his head in shame and stammered to tell them what happened.

It wasn't a woman who wanted to buy her mushrooms at a high price, it was a middle-aged man.

Yuan Yuan followed the middle-aged man to his shop, but was robbed of the fungus but did not give money.

Yuan Yuan reasoned with him, the man suddenly had bad intentions during the quarrel, dragged her upstairs and harmed her, and took indecent photos of her, saying that if she dared to make trouble again, he would spread her indecent photos everywhere.

So Yuanyuan didn't dare to call the police, so he had to knock out his teeth and swallow blood, hoping that this matter would pass quietly, but he didn't expect to be pregnant.

Yuan Yuan cried and cried: "It's not that I haven't found a way to remedy it, I originally wanted to trick Shi Lei into our house, so that I could say that the child in my belly was his, but I was destroyed by Bai Mengdie several times......"

Yuanyuan's two brothers and her father were all silent, but Yuanyuan's mother gritted her teeth and said, "If it weren't for Bai Mengdie's slut who didn't sell mushrooms with you, would you have this kind of thing?"

Since she was all harmed, it is natural for Shi Lei to bear the consequences! ”

Yuan Yuan cried even more fiercely: "Shi Lei has never been alone with me, how can he be responsible?" ”

"So what?" Yuanyuan's mother is determined to win, "What can we do if we have to ask him to be responsible?" Will he still be able to prove that the child in his womb is not his? ”

Yuanyuan's father hesitated and said, "This ...... It's not good. ”

Yuanyuan's mother roared: "Then what do you say?" Just suffer a dumb loss? ”

Yuanyuan's two elder brothers also said: "Mom, this matter is not something we can rely on if we want to rely on Shi Lei, let's go to the Bai family, and the Bai family will understand what is going on when they hear it, will they be honestly framed by us?"

I think that the best way to keep the girl's reputation is to take the girl to the city and dispose of the child in the belly unknowingly. ”

Yuanyuan's father nodded in agreement.

Yuanyuan's mother thought about it for a long time, and finally nodded and agreed, she was afraid that she would not be able to bite Shi Lei, and she also let her daughter's ugly things be leaked, and her reputation would be over by then.

The family returned to the village with a heavy heart.

Some villagers asked with concern what kind of illness Yuan Yuan had before he fainted.

Yuanyuan's mother cheered up and lied: "It's not sick, it's just a simple heat stroke." ”

It's not surprising that such a hot and innocent person suffered from heat stroke, but thinking of Yuanyuan's always retching behind his back these days, the expressions of many villagers are meaningful.
