Xiao Qi hammered for about a quarter of an hour, then stopped, looked at the sky outside, and found that it was not yet dark.

"Grandpa, why don't we go for a walk in the front yard?"

The old man, who was almost asleep by Xiao Qihammer, hurriedly opened his eyes when he heard his granddaughter's voice, and said yes in his mouth.

The two of them walked slowly to the front yard like this, and the old man looked at his granddaughter who reached his chest, and helped himself so carefully, and the serious expression on his face softened a lot.

"Xiao Qi, Grandpa hasn't asked you what you did today?" While speaking, the old man also touched his granddaughter's head.

Seeing his granddaughter holding her head with a depressed look, the old man laughed directly.

"Grandpa, you also learn from your mother to bully me." Xiao Qi pouted and stomped his feet in place.

"Alright, alright, grandpa won't laugh anymore. Look at this little pout, you can hang things up immediately. ”

After speaking, the old man really stopped smiling, but there was still a smile in his eyes.

"Grandpa, do you know what my mother and I did this morning?" Xiao Qi looked at the old man with a mysterious face, and a pair of apricot eyes stared at the old man.

The old man raised his eyebrows and saw the slightly mysterious granddaughter, "What did you do?" Grandpa doesn't know how to calculate, how do you know? Didn't you wait for Xiao Qi to tell me? ”

"Grandpa, do you remember the elm money I picked up last year?" Xiao Qi continued to speak in a mysterious tone.

Old man: "Yuqian, of course grandpa remembers, the taste is quite delicious, why did you go to pick Yuqian today, but I didn't see it when I ate today!" ”

Xiao Qi pursed his lips and nodded his little head, "Grandpa, you don't know?" After having breakfast, I took my mother and Jinxiu Liya to the back mountain to pick elm money. ”

"I picked up two big bags, all of which were carried back by sharp teeth."

Thinking of the appearance of Liya carrying two large bags of things, Xiao Qi still couldn't help laughing, he originally wanted to bring out the mysterious atmosphere, but now he was all ruined by himself.

Hearing this, the old man couldn't help but feel a little strange.

"What about the elm money, it can't be stolen by sharp teeth, right? But I remember that Sharp Tooth doesn't seem to eat these things! ”

"Grandpa, why don't you guess where all the elm money went?"

The granddaughter looked so strange, she definitely didn't eat it at her own house, and suddenly the old man had a flash of inspiration, "It can't be sold by you, right?" But who knows that thing except for our family? ”

"Grandpa, you're amazing! You guessed it! Xiao Qi really admires you so much. ”

Xiao Qi hugged his grandfather excitedly, of course, he hadn't forgotten to use the smallest strength.

The old man was stunned, "It's really sold, does anyone know that thing?" ”

"It's sold, but it's not for raw use, it's for processing, didn't grandpa also say that Yuqian is delicious?"

"Tomorrow, my sister-in-law and I are going to sell it again, taking advantage of the freshness of these days, we can sell a little more."

The old man looked at his energetic granddaughter and stroked his beard, "Can you tell grandpa how you sell it?" ”

Xiao Qi: "Grandpa, we will transport the steamed elm money directly to the town after adjusting it, and sell it at the price of two cents per bowl." ”

The old man looked at his granddaughter suspiciously, "It's not as simple as you say, right?" If it were me, I wouldn't buy a meal I haven't seen before. ”

Next, Xiao Qishou danced in front of his grandfather like this, like this, and like this to explain what had happened.

After listening to his granddaughter's narration, the shrewd old man immediately figured out the problem, and when he looked at his granddaughter, his eyes were full of appreciation.

The granddaughter's method is really good, try it first, buy a bowl and get half a bowl for the first twenty gifts, which captures people's habit of taking advantage of it, as well as the habit of joining in the fun.

Now he is completely relieved of this granddaughter, and he doesn't have to worry about his granddaughter being deceived when she is young.

"My granddaughter is just smart." The old man couldn't hold back a hand and slapped Xiao Qi's head again.

But this time, Xiao Qi didn't dodge, but echoed his grandfather's words with an arrogant face.

"Well, Xiao Qi is smart." The little appearance made the old man laugh again.

Xiao Qi looked at the old man and smiled happily, and laughed too, as long as grandpa is always so happy, what does she have to make a little pistachio?

The night breeze was slow, the sky gradually darkened, and the two of them walked around the courtyard twice before Xiao Qi sent his grandfather back to the room.

When he came out, his grandfather told Xiao Qi that they didn't need to pick elm money tomorrow, and asked her brothers to go before eating.

This is the heart of Xiao Qi, but it can save them a lot of time.

After Wei came out of the old man's room, he went directly back to his bedroom, but he didn't see Xianggong in the bedroom.

Wei pursed his lips and smiled and walked out of the room, directly into the wing next door, that is, Xianggong's study.

She was so happy and confused, her husband was usually in the study at this hour.

Lu Zhongshou, who was reading in the study, knew that it was the lady who came in when he heard the sound of the study door.

Only the lady will come at this time, and she won't knock on the door, the children don't have the guts, uh, except for Xiao Qi.

"Brother Shou, it's getting dark, why don't you light the lamp? I can't remember that it hurts my eyes. ”

As soon as Wei Shi walked into the study, he frowned, looked at the dim room, and helplessly picked up the fire fold next to the oil lamp and lit the oil lamp.

Lu Zhongshou hurriedly put down the book in his hand, got up and came to the lady's side, and gently stroked the lady's frowning brows with his distressed hand, and said with a flattering face:

"Yes or yes, it's all my fault, I'm fascinated by reading, and I didn't notice it for a while, Yun'er, don't be angry and hurt yourself."

With such a father-in-law, how could Wei be angry? She just felt sorry for her husband.

"Brother Shou, I'm not angry, I'm just worried about your eyes, just like you're worried about me, don't you let me embroider under the oil lamp?"

Wei looked at his father-in-law gently, and gently smoothed the wrinkles in the robe behind him because he sat down.

"Or does Yun'er know that she feels sorry for me? I promise to pay attention next time. Lu Zhongshou thoughtfully helped his wife to sit on the chair behind the desk.

"Yun'er, is there something you want to tell me about this husband?"

Normally, when he is in the study, the lady will not disturb him if she has nothing to do.

"There are some things, Brother Shou, if you don't study, come back to the room with me, let's talk about it in the room." Wei looked at his father-in-law with a smile on his face.

Lu Zhongshou raised his eyebrows, and sure enough, he said that the lady must have something, and quickly put away the books and pens on the table, "Let's go, lady, let's go back to the room." ”

After speaking, Lu Zhongshou turned his head and blew lightly, and the oil lamp flickered a few times and melted into the darkness.

At this time, the night was getting thicker, and by the light outside the door, Lu Zhongshou pulled the lady out of the study, closed the door, and returned to the bedroom next door with the lady.

Wei was not in a hurry, but first helped Xianggong make water for washing, and only after the two of them did the washing did they plug the door and entered the inner room together.

Wei sat Xiang Gong on the edge of the bed, and then mysteriously took out the money he had earned in the morning.

Lu Zhongshou looked at the hundreds of copper plates on the bed in confusion, and the strings were neatly put together.

"Yun'er, what are you doing with these copper plates?" Lu Zhongshou really felt strange, and he couldn't figure out what the lady meant, could it be that he suspected him of hiding private money.

"Guess." Wei blinked at the same apricot eyes as his daughter, and looked at his father-in-law fixedly.

Lu Zhongshou: ...... It can't be that the lady really found out that he was hiding private money.

Lu Zhongshou glanced at the lady carefully, but found that the lady was still looking at him fixedly.

Wiping a handful of non-existent sweat from his face, he got up from the bed, put his hand into the corner under the bed, and fumbled for a while, groping for an old cloth shoe.
