Chapter 128: Paying Debts

In the end, the second girl said, "Mother, let's go home." ”

Yuan's expression froze, and he was embarrassed, "Your grandfather and grandmother are counting on the old Xu family to send a man to come back, and want to get back the few taels of silver that your grandmother snatched back that time, and then let me go home, now that the two of you are here, I'm afraid that there is no silver to pay back, and we can't go back yet......"

As soon as the second girl heard this, Mars rose again.

"Grandpa, grandma, when you brought the words, you didn't say that you wanted silver, you only said that you came to pick up people, why did you ask for silver when you came to pick up people? My grandmother said that there was no money to ask for, and my father was still lying in bed waiting for the silver to save his life! My mother is not a hostage, do you still want to hold her? ”

The old leader was about to get angry again.

Yuan Chunhua covered Erya's mouth, "Don't say it, Erya, the more you say that your grandfather is in a bad mood, so let's stay in Lao Yuan's house for a few more days, help them do a few more days of work, serve your grandfather and grandmother for a few days, and then pay off the debt, after a few days, your grandfather and grandmother will have nothing to eat, so naturally let us go home." ”

Sanya is obedient, and what Yuan says is what he says.

Sanya hurriedly said, "I listen to my mother!" I can do the work, I can do any job......"

Erya always felt that this matter was not so simple, but Yuan's was her mother-in-law, and Yuan's words, she didn't have too many doubts.

Stay for a few days, do the work, do the work, never do the work to death, work hard, boil it over.

At night, it is possible to visit with the Yuan family and their second aunt Yuan Xiahua in a small side room, with air leaks on all sides, mosquitoes, snakes and ants or something.

There was not even a kang in the house, so the grass was laid and laid directly on the ground, and the ground was damp.

It's actually a random place to pile up clutter.

To be honest, it's similar to the pigsty newly built by Lao Xu's family, and if it rains, there will be no one living at all.

There is no comparison with their wide house and big kang in Lao Xu's house.

The second and third girls are also people who can endure hardships in the old Xu family, and living in this environment is also a little choking.

One night, my hands and face were covered with bags that had been bitten by mosquitoes.

On the second day, Lao Yuan's family had dinner, and the men of Lao Yuan's family ate dry porridge and could eat it next to the dinner table.

The only women who can go to the dinner table are Yuan Pozi and her two aunts, and Yuan Chunhua.

The other women of the old Yuan family, such as cousins, as well as Yuan Xiahua, Er Ya and Sanya, they didn't even have the qualifications to serve on the table, so they ate in the kitchen.

There is an earthen bowl in front of each person, and there is only a little wild vegetable paste in the bowl, almost all of which is water, and you can't get a grain of rice for half a day.

Can this feed people?!

They used to come to Lao Yuan's house, and rarely ate at Lao Yuan's house, they all came and left on the same day, and when they wanted to eat, Yuan Chunhua herself brought food from Lao Xu's house.

It's not like now, it's just a bowl of vegetable porridge and water.

Erya held the bowl and looked at it unaccustomedly, but as far as the eye could see, the rest of the old Yuan family didn't seem to have any superfluous thoughts.

Especially a few cousins, silently drinking vegetable porridge and water, as if they were used to it.

Erya couldn't drink it, and a little cousin on the side saw this and asked in a low voice, "Erya, why don't you eat?" Eat it! Isn't it disgusting? ”

"How can you eat enough with just such a bowl of vegetable porridge and water?" Er Ya asked rhetorically.

"Erya, your old Xu family, do you really give the girls a big nest every meal?" The little cousin asked curiously.

"There is no difference between girls and boys in our family, the adult is two big nests, and the underage is a big nest, and there is a dry porridge like the one you bring out, eat a bowl, you can add more, not quantitative, and stir-fried vegetables, pickles are also mixed with soybean oil, we can all eat ......"

With Erya's words, the little cousin's saliva flowed from her mouth to her cuffs, and she didn't know it.

That look of envy!

Sanya also expressed dissatisfaction with the food of the old Yuan's family, and muttered, "Our aunt still buys us meat to eat every once in a while, the kind of big meat buns that are full, do you usually eat this?" Can this be full? ”

At this time, more than a little cousin was drooling, and even Yuan Xiahua, a middle-aged woman who was listening to the girls' nonsense, was drooling.

Yuan Xiahua now has no money and does not dare to go back to her mother-in-law's house, and she is not treated well in the old Yuan family, when she first came home before, she could still eat on the table, but now she is driven to the kitchen and drinks porridge and water with the girls.

The grandchildren of the old Yuan family have four girls, and they don't have names, so they are called Yuan Da Niu, Yuan Er Niu, Yuan San Niu, Yuan Si Niu, and the big names and small names are all called this.

Erya, they are nicknames, they all have big names, the Xu family is a generation, and they are ranked in the ranks of the ancestral genealogy.

Since the uncle of the Xu family was admitted to Xiucai, he began to pay attention to the names of his descendants, and listed the generations, otherwise, the mud-legged countrymen, where would there be any generations or something to choose a name.

Therefore, the names of the two girls are naturally different from the eldest chicks, second girls, third girls, and fourth girls of the Yuan family.

Yuan Erniu listened to Sanya's words, and her eyes showed incomparable yearning, "In my life, I have never eaten big meat buns, I don't know what kind of taste it is?" Isn't it particularly fragrant? Eat the kind of delicious food that can swallow your tongue? ”

Yuan Sanniu also said, "If you ask me to eat a meat bun and let me die, I am willing." ”

……

Er Ya and Sanya understand their mood very well, before, they rarely ate meat buns.

If my aunt didn't buy it for them to eat, who would have the opportunity to eat it?

Even their old Xu family can't eat meat buns, how can a family like Lao Yuan's family eat it?

Yuan Siniu was the youngest, only about five or six years old, and she said, "I want to eat dumplings!" Last time, your second brother sent a big bowl of dumplings to grandma, grandpa, uncle, dad, when I eat, I smell it next to me, and I want to eat dumplings at night! Sister Erya, Sister Sanya, do you still eat dumplings at home? Which is better dumplings or meat buns? ”

Erya pondered carefully, "It's all delicious!" When our family makes loquat paste, I think it's delicious to eat dumplings for a day, meat buns for a day, and the tofu meatballs made by my aunt are also super delicious, and the potato tamales are also delicious......"

The more Er Ya said, the more she missed.

The four girls of the Yuan family were like that, and their saliva was flowing down like a waterfall.

Yuan Daniu didn't believe it at all, "Erya, you brag, how can someone eat meat every day, you say you have eaten meat, I believe, all year round, eat a meal with meat, I believe, who let your old Xu family have good conditions, but you said to eat dumplings for a day, eat meat buns for a day!" Bah, that's what only the ladies in the palace can eat, right? ”
