Chapter 701: Gu Xiucai's illness
A word woke up the mothers-in-law, it's time to go home and cook.
They scattered as birds and beasts.
Mrs. Zhang looked at the scattered crowd before pouting, "The people in this city are all pretending, and they are not happy." Early in the morning, you walk on the front foot, and the back foot is probably at the door of our house. The old lady went out to buy a baked cake, and was surrounded, and the hot baked cake was good, but now it is cold! β
As he spoke, he took out the baked cake from his arms, and sure enough, the fragrant baked cake was now as cold as a stone, hard, and when he knocked it on the wall, it could knock up a piece of ash.
Wang Yongzhu took the baked cake: "What is this worth, what does my mother want to eat?" Shall I buy it now? "Give the rest of the snacks and candy in your hand to Mrs. Zhang, and turn around.
"Isn't that what it is? Won't this pancake be soft when you cook it for a while? I've inquired, everything in this city costs money, we can't sit and eat empty, I don't know how much Chongjin doesn't know, we have to save some flowers, you know? β
Mrs. Zhang snatched the baked cakes distressedly, she was patient to chat with those mothers-in-law in the city today, and it was not in vain.
I already know which rice shop in the neighborhood has cheap rice, when to buy vegetables to buy the freshest, which steamed buns are the most affordable, and even firewood, and I know who to buy.
It can be said that in just one morning, I have mastered at least half of the cheats on how to survive in Jing County.
I have already calculated in my heart, according to their family's expenses, excluding Song Chongjin's shackles, the family eats and dresses, and some odd expenses or something, at least five taels of silver.
Although Mrs. Zhang now knows that her daughter has money in hand, and her son-in-law is not unsuccessful, but for her, five taels of silver is too expensive.
In the countryside, five taels of silver can make their family live for two or three months, and when they get to the city, this silver is worthless.
Mrs. Zhang still has a hidden worry in her heart, but she can't talk about it with her daughter.
At the beginning, the second brute was touted as a prodigy, and he was selected for Xiucai at the age of sixteen, but what happened later? After more than ten years of exams, I didn't get a lifter.
Song Chongjin's child only knew how to read and read when he was a teenager, and the showman at the beginning was probably lucky, and because of his father-in-law, he was barely admitted.
If she wants to be admitted to the lifting of people, Mrs. Zhang has been prepared for at least ten years.
Now the family's mountain goods business, the daughter has also withdrawn, although the dyeing workshop has dividends, but in the future, the daughter has a child, and the place to spend money is still behind.
Not to mention, she knows that if there is a scholar in this family, the expenses will not be counted, even if the girl can earn money, she can't help the family to spend lavishly.
Therefore, I am determined to take care of my daughter's home, this money can be saved a little bit, and it is okay to lose a little bit, and I can't make my daughter embarrassed in the future.
How did Wang Yongzhu know that Mrs. Zhang actually thought so long-term, and thought that now that she finally took her mother out, she naturally wanted to send the best in the world, as long as her mother liked it, to her.
One insisted on buying, the other didn't want to live or die, and when he was in a stalemate, Song Chongjin came back.
"Mother? Yongzhu? What are you doing? "I heard the words "baked cakes", "buy, don't buy" from afar.
Wang Yongzhu saw that Song Chongjin was back, and he was still followed by Gu Xiucai and his little servant, so he only smiled and nodded at Gu Xiucai.
Before he could speak, he saw Gu Xiucai stunned for a moment, and then as if he had been pricked by a needle, he walked forward quickly, and said without looking back as he walked: "Brother Song, I'll go back first-"
It was in a hurry, as if a wolf was chasing after him.
Wang Yongzhu looked at Song Chongjin in puzzlement, and then at Gu Xiucai, and was surprised to find that Gu Xiucai even had the tips of his ears and neck red.
"Brother Song, is this Gu Xiu?" Wang Yongzhu looked confused, she didn't think she looked scary, right?
Yesterday she didn't dare to glance this way, but this morning she was stupid when she looked at it, and then she ran away, and she didn't pay attention to it first.
Why did he just smile politely at him at noon, and then nod his head, as if someone was going to kill him? Turn around and run?
How scared is this?
Touching his face, Wang Yongzhu asked, "Brother Song, mother, do I look scary?" β
Mrs. Zhang is such a shrewd person, you can see at a glance that the Xiucai surnamed Gu did not look like he was scared when he saw his daughter, but like shyness.
However, now that his daughter is married, and his son-in-law is also satisfied, where can he look down on others?
Don't mention that Gu Xiucai looks like a weak chicken, and he falls down when the wind blows, what's the use?
In Mrs. Zhang's simple concept, a man still has to be strong and strong, this one is as weak as a chick, he can't pick his shoulders and can't lift his hands, what is the use of him? Looks good at home?
What's more, women want reputation, this newcomer, if they get a bad reputation, the daughters and sons-in-law's lives will be ruined.
Seeing that his daughter hadn't opened this trick yet, he thought that Gu Xiucai was afraid of him, so he immediately echoed: "But no, this Xiucai master is afraid that he looks down on us from the countryside, right?" I heard that he is from the capital, so he can't look down on our Zhuang family! Chongjin, such a person, let's have less contact! β
As he spoke, he glanced at Song Chongjin.
Song Chongjin still doesn't understand, his heart is warm, his mother-in-law is on his side.
smiled at the moment, rubbed Wang Yongzhu's face, and said: "Mother, Yongzhu, you all misunderstood, Brother Gu is not such a person, he is naturally afraid of dealing with women, and he is afraid when he sees women, especially young women, he can't even speak when he sees it, and he has a rash all over his body." When you see him in the future, don't talk to him, lest you make him sick againβ"
When Wang Yongzhu heard it, isn't this the disease that those domineering presidents love in the original world? What's it called? Gynophobia? Generally, you have to meet the True Destiny Girl to be immune, and only the True Destiny Girl is immune to one person, which is simply a genetic lock.
Sympathetically said at the moment: "It's pitiful! Mother, when we meet Gu Xiucai in the future, we must stay away, and we can't talk to him! β
Mrs. Zhang glared at Song Chongjin, turned her head, and smiled again: "What we Zhu'er said is that we must stay away from such a person." β
Song Chongjin squeezed out a smile at Mrs. Zhang's flattery, remembered the words he heard just now, and guessed what was going on, "Mother, I'll buy you hot baked cakes and come back to eat." β
With that, I hurriedly went to buy baked cakes.
Mrs. Zhang pulled Wang Yongzhu into the courtyard, wanted to say something, opened her mouth several times, closed it again, and simply waved her hand: "Go back to the house and rest, I'll cook some mushroom soup, so that I can eat it with baked cakes." "I want to talk about "Peasant Girl Youtian: Lady, Very Tough" with more like-minded people, WeChat pays attention to "excellent reading literature", chats about life, and looks for confidants~
