Chapter 027: The Past
Mei Qingqian reacted, the moonlight did not shine where she was lying, it was obviously dark, how could he see it?
Bluff her? But there are really holes in the middle coat.
"You can have night vision?" She couldn't help but ask.
"Hmm." He snorted faintly, and it was considered to be done.
Mei Qingqian is even more depressed now, it is so dark that people can see that her middle clothes are torn, do you want to carry it like this?
The sound of rain continued, and her head was also messy, thinking about how to make money for a while, thinking about how to clean up Mei Yanxiang's mother and daughter for a while, and finally fell asleep in a daze.
When I woke up the next day, Li Xun had already gone out, and the porridge was still warm in the stove room, and Mei Qingqian had a short mouth, and she felt more and more that he was actually not bad.
After a while, Aunt Zhang came to visit and gave Mei Qingqian two hot boiled eggs.
"Auntie, why don't you bring me eggs again and give them to the little stool to eat, he is growing his body." Mei Qingqian didn't want to take it, and Aunt Zhang's family was not rich.
Aunt Zhang directly cracked the eggshell, stuffed it to her and said, "Eat it while it's hot, I've eaten it on the little stool." ”
Mei Qingqian had to take the egg and eat it, and Aunt Zhang quietly took out a cloth bag from her arms and stuffed it under her pillow.
"Tomorrow, you have to negotiate with the Liu family, the gift money will definitely be refunded, the Mei family is afraid that they can't count on it, and the aunt doesn't have a lot of money, so she can't help much, you take it first."
Aunt Zhang, who she thought of, also thought of it, and sent charcoal in the snow.
"Auntie, how can you do this!" Mei Qingqian hurriedly touched the cloth bag under the pillow, there were a few hard lumps in it, and it was estimated that there were at least six or seven taels of silver.
In the memory of the predecessor, Aunt Zhang's family was not wealthy, and she and Uncle Zhang only had one son, Zhang Lin, but the old couple had a good relationship, and they were both diligent people, and their lives were real.
It's a pity that Zhang Lin's daughter-in-law suffered a hard life, and she bleed heavily when she gave birth to a small stool, and the old couple of the Zhang family were really good, smashing pots and selling iron to see a doctor-in-law for their daughter-in-law, and the ginseng that hung their lives was used, and finally owed a lot of foreign debts. It's a pity that Zhang Lin's daughter-in-law dragged on for more than half a month, but she still went.
Zhang Lin was depressed for a while, and soon went out to work to make money, and he could only come back once during the New Year's Festival.
Aunt Zhang has finally saved some money in the past two years, and she has also mentioned it to others, thinking that she should always find a house for her son, right? It's not a problem all the time.
But now that she has saved all the money for her son to beg for his daughter-in-law, she has not even thought about whether she can pay it back.
Mei Qingqian's eyes were hot, and she hurriedly stuffed the silver back to Aunt Zhang, "Aunt Zhang, I understand your kindness, Li Xun told me that he saved the money to beg his daughter-in-law, you don't have to worry." ”
Aunt Zhang didn't accept it, "Then you keep it just in case, you don't need to pay me back, if you push it back and forth again, you won't treat your aunt as your own." ”
Hearing this, Mei Qingqian couldn't push it anymore, so she had to carefully put away the silver.
Aunt Zhang patted her hand, "There is one more thing, my aunt didn't want to tell you before, I was afraid that you would be sad if you knew it, but now that you are back, I won't tell you, I'm afraid you won't be prepared." ”
"Auntie, you say?" Mei Qingqian saw Aunt Zhang's serious expression, and guessed that it was not a trivial matter.
Aunt Zhang's face showed an angry look, "Do you remember that one evening before you went to Beijing, Dark Xiang had to ask you to go to the river to help her wash her clothes, and met me halfway, I said that there was an urgent matter and pulled you away?" ”
As soon as Mei Yanxiang was mentioned, Mei Qingqian smelled the smell of conspiracy, and there were some vague pictures in the memory of the predecessor, and the predecessor didn't take it to heart when she thought about it.
"Yes." She replied.
Aunt Zhang took her hand and continued, "Actually, I heard ...... that day"
