Chapter Eighty-Four: The Long See
Yangliu Village is the only village in the vicinity that is still busy during the slack period, but it is just leaning on the wasteland on the other side of the mountain, and it is not easy for outsiders to find someone at home to ask for directions.
When Mrs. Zhou came to Yangliu Village in a carriage, Mr. Zhou didn't have time to tell her about Liuya's family, and he made a joke when he was looking for someone.
"The old lady will drink tea quickly, and I'll keep this for lunch for a while, and I'll steam white rice for you."
Mrs. Liu warmly entertained Mrs. Zhou, with a mouthful of yellow teeth that Mrs. Zhou did not dare to look at.
It's also a coincidence, Mrs. Liu originally wanted to go to the town to find Liu Hong to ask for silver, after all, the cost of her great-grandson's medicine was too great, and there was not much left of her last little family fund.
But when I walked to the entrance of the village, I met Mrs. Zhou's carriage, and the coachman also asked Mrs. Liu how to get to Liu Ya's house.
When Mrs. Liu saw that it was a rich family, she immediately said that she was Liu Ya's grandmother, and went home together in Mrs. Zhou's carriage.
No, the things that Mrs. Zhou brought to Liu Ya were also put away by Mrs. Liu.
"When will Liu Ya come back? I'm just here to see the girl. ”
Old Madam Zhou had no intention of staying for dinner, if she didn't really have the heart to thank Liu Ya, she wouldn't stay for a moment.
It's not that Mrs. Zhou looks down on the countrymen, but the old house without a three-room house, which is dirty from the gate to the house, even the clothes can't be washed, and there is a strange smell everywhere.
In particular, the hall was crowded with people, which made Mrs. Zhou, who had asthma, very uncomfortable, and her breathing was no longer smooth.
"That girl doesn't know where to go and goes crazy, and sometimes she doesn't see anyone for a day. If the old lady likes the little girl, let the other granddaughters of our family talk to you, but it is much more interesting than that cheap girl. ”
As she spoke, Mrs. Liu glanced at Liu Bai and asked her to find the two sisters back.
When she was on the horse, Mrs. Liu knew why Mrs. Zhou liked Liu Ya, and she also knew that this was a rich master, so she naturally wanted to tie up.
"No need, since Liu Ya is not at home, then I will go back first. Just let that girl sit with me when she has time, and you won't have to work. ”
Mrs. Zhou got up as she spoke, but how could Mrs. Liu be willing to let the God of Wealth go?
"Don't worry! Maybe the dead girl will be back in a while, but can't you let a distinguished guest like you go hungry at noon...... Ah! ”
As soon as Mrs. Liu got started, she saw Mrs. Zhou coughing, her body was trembling, and she was so frightened that she hurriedly let go of her hand and retreated.
Thinking of Mrs. Zhou's saying that Liu Ya had saved her, Mrs. Liu was very flustered.
In case this rich old lady dies in their house, isn't she going to suffer a lawsuit?
"Don't worry, old lady, hurry up and take the pill."
The girl was busy with Mrs. Zhou's back, and seeing that her breathing was a little steady, she immediately fed a pill to Mrs. Zhou.
"Uncle Zhou, hurry up and ask the doctor to come over, the old lady's asthma has relapsed."
When Mrs. Zhou closed her eyes and recuperated, Xifu hurriedly shouted to the coachman who was resting in the yard, and said coldly to Mrs. Liu and others: "Open the doors and windows, and you all go out." ”
If it weren't for the fact that Mrs. Zhou had always had pity for the juniors for Liu Ya, she would have scolded the Liu family.
But the blessing is also to blame on the willow buds, born in such a family, it is estimated that she is not a very good girl, and her eyes light up when she sees good things.
"Don't toss, help me to the car." Old Madam Zhou shook her head and said.
Mrs. Zhou also regretted that she came to the countryside willfully today, if she was really sick, she would find trouble for Master Zhou, and she would cause trouble to this family.
However, Mrs. Zhou really doesn't know how to evaluate the family in the old house, and the enthusiasm is so flattering that it is difficult for people to adapt, and it is even more difficult for people to feel the simplicity of the countryside.
As for the willow buds......
Mrs. Zhou sighed countless times in her heart, with such a group of relatives, such a good little girl doesn't know how many grievances and hardships she has suffered, otherwise she wouldn't have to start running around to make money at a young age.
Thinking of the scene of meeting Liu Ya for the first time, Mrs. Zhou was even more determined to turn around and give the silver to Liu Ya herself, so as not to let these blood-sucking relatives take advantage of them in vain.
"Then I'll help the old lady out, if you don't feel comfortable, don't bear it."
Xifu was worried, afraid that Mrs. Zhou would have a good one, and she, a close girl, would not want to end well.
And Mrs. Zhou is kind, and the population of the Zhou family is also simple, so she would rather serve Mrs. Zhou for a lifetime, at least live like a person.
Mrs. Liu didn't dare to step forward again, for fear that Mrs. Zhou would rely on her if she was not good, and even Liu Bai and the others did not dare to send guests.
When Mrs. Zhou was helped by Xifu to get into the carriage, Liu Ya and Liu Miao happened to come back with medicinal seeds, and they couldn't help but be a little surprised that Mrs. Zhou would have dealings with people in the old house.
"The old lady is well."
Liu Ya smiled and said hello, not asking a word that shouldn't be asked.
"Girl, you're back."
Seeing Liu Ya, Mrs. Zhou smiled, and it was distressing to see the sisters wearing old clothes and carrying such heavy things.
"Go home, how heavy are so many things on your back! Lao Zhou, you help move into the yard. ”
Mrs. Zhou instructed the coachman, and felt more and more that she had guessed the truth, and Liu Ya's life at home was not easy.
Liu Ya was just about to speak, but the coachman had already quickly taken the back basket into his hand, along with Liu Miao's share.
"Girl, you are also a big girl, you have to learn to hide your heart in the future. I shouldn't have said this as an outsider, but I'm afraid you're too sincere. ”
"Hide the silver yourself, don't be discovered by your grandmother, keep it in the dowry in the future, and you will have confidence in your heart!"
Old Madam Zhou stuffed the money bag in her sleeve into Liu Ya's hand and deliberately lowered her voice.
Originally, when she didn't understand why Mrs. Zhou said this, when she saw the coachman sending things to the courtyard of the old mansion, Liu Ya finally understood, and her face turned a little colder.
"Old lady, I don't have a grandmother. As early as two months ago, our family was kicked out and signed a paperwork to break off our family. ”
Although Liu Ya can't be completely sure whether Mrs. Zhou came out of the old mansion and whether she misunderstood her relationship with the old mansion, these words must be explained.
And Master Zhou also knows about it, so there is no need to hide it.
"What?"
Mrs. Zhou was as surprised as Xifu, but she didn't expect this to be the case.
Even though she is in a small town now, Mrs. Zhou is not such an uninformed person, how can someone deceive her like this?
"Old Zhou!"
Old Madam Zhou shouted loudly and ordered: "Bring out all the things you just brought in, give the gift to the wrong person, our Zhou family has never done such a shameful thing!" ”
If it weren't for the fact that she almost got sick just now, Old Madam Zhou's temper would definitely be a little bigger.
Seeing that Mrs. Zhou was out of breath after only one sentence, Liu Ya hurriedly untied the kettle and handed it over.
"The old lady first drink saliva to moisten her throat, don't be angry about this little thing, otherwise it will not be willow bud."
What else does Liu Ya not understand?
I used to know that the old house was greedy and shameless, and then I realized that she didn't know the lower limit of the old house on these two points, but it really made her insightful.
The coachman's face also darkened when he heard this, but he was the one who asked for directions, and he did such an unsightly errand.
Especially the old lady almost fell ill just now, how can she explain to her father when she goes back?
Mrs. Zhou's face looked better after a while, and she was helped into the carriage by Xifu, and said to Liu Ya: "Girl, take your sister to the car, this time I have to recognize the door, and the province will make a joke next time." ”
