Early the next morning, after getting up, Pomegranate Hua packed up all her salutes, and prepared to go and leave after saying a word to Zhan Hengyi.

Zhan Hengyi had just finished washing, and when he heard Fang Er say that the pomegranate flower came to resign, he instructed Fang Er to invite the pomegranate flower in.

Pomegranate Hua entered the house, stood in the middle of the house, lowered her eyes slightly, and said, "Brother Zhan, the foundation of the oil mill has been laid, and I can't help with building the house, so I'll go back today." ”

After that day, she has been avoiding meeting Zhan Hengyi, and when she came to resign today, she still couldn't abandon her prejudices in her heart.

Zhan Hengyi noticed the alienation of the inverted pomegranate flower, frowned slightly and asked, "Come to see me so early, will you leave in a while?" ”

"It's cooler in the morning." After answering, she thought about it and added: "It's been more than a month since I came out, and I want to go back soon." ”

"Anyway, your little girl has been away from home for a long time, and homesickness is inevitable." Zhan Hengyi stopped talking, and instead instructed Fang Er: "Go and take out the thank you gift prepared for the pomegranate girl." ”

"Yes, Childe." Fang Er should get down, go to the inner room and come out with a small tray, on which are ten silver ingots neatly placed.

"I didn't have time to prepare a gift in a hurry, this one hundred taels of silver should be regarded as a thank you gift from Brother Zhan, and I hope that Little Sister Pomegranate Flower will not dislike Brother Zhan and I am cheesy." Zhan looked at the pomegranate and smiled.

Pomegranate Hua shook her head, "I have already made you break the bank for helping Qin Niangzi last time, how can I accept your thank you gift again." ”

Zhan Hengyi said: "It's a trivial matter to help Qin Niangzi buy medicine, and besides, didn't you explain to Qin Niangzi that it was my money, that is, doing good deeds in my name, how can you count the account on your head, and you should receive the thank you gift." ”

"But...... A hundred taels is too much. The pomegranate still refused to accept the money.

She calculated the account in her heart, one hundred taels of silver is equivalent to about 100,000 yuan in her previous life, if it is a professor at the level of a person who comes out to take a job, 100,000 yuan may not be enough, but she is a college student who has just graduated, this is a bit too high.

"Not much at all." Zhan Hengyi walked up to the pomegranate flower, and his tone was gentle and earnest, "If it weren't for your words to remind you that there is a problem with the foundation of the oil mill, it is very likely that the camellia oil business I opened will suffer a heavy blow in the near future, so this one hundred taels of silver as a thank you gift can only be regarded as a meager." ”

One hundred taels of silver can almost renovate the Tao family's courtyard!

Thinking of the long-awaited goal, Liuhua turned her heart and decided to accept the money, "So I will accept it, Brother Zhan needs help in the future, even if people come to me." ”

Zhan Hengyi was waiting for her words, and laughed loudly when he heard it.

After returning to the house, the pomegranate flower didn't stay for a moment, wrapped the silver in a handkerchief, stuffed it into the baggage, and left.

She knew that Mrs. Xu didn't want to see her, so she went to find Xu Pingchang in the Xu family's butcher shop yesterday and asked him to tell Xinghua that she would go home today.

Jinbao's family had to continue to work on the construction site, so Pomegranate had to go back alone and buy some food to take with them in the town.

Along the way, she thought that the small courtyard where she lived would be able to change her face immediately, and she was full of energy, and she didn't feel tired at all after walking down more than a dozen mountain roads.

When he returned to Taojia Village, he was the only one in the family.

"Are you going to come back this time? I heard from the workers in our village who came back and said that the construction site would take a while to be completed. Cao saw that the pomegranate flower was carrying a burden on her shoulders, and her left and right hands were not empty, so she thought that her daughter was back to deliver something.

"No, no, my work is done, they still have work." Pomegranate put the things in her hand on the table, then glanced at the room and asked, "Where are Dad and Tianbao?" ”

"Your father went to the mountain pond to release water, it hasn't rained for more than ten days, and the water in the field has dried up early." Cao Shi looked through the things on the table and said: "Why do you buy so many sweet pastries, Tianbao is changing his teeth, many of his teeth are rotten, fortunately he is not at home, let him see the noise and want to eat." ”

"He can't eat it, we can't eat it yet!" Blossom rolled her eyes, walked over and closed the door.

"What are you doing in broad daylight?" Cao was puzzled.

"Show you baby." The pomegranate flower mischievously sold a pass, and Ma Li untied the burden and found the bag of silver, and motioned for Cao to open it himself.

"What a baby, god babbling." Cao glanced at the pomegranate and reached out to unburden it.

The door was closed, but there was plenty of light.

The burden was untied, and the big ingots were shining with silver light, full of temptation.

Cao's eyes were flashing, and he asked in disbelief, "Is this...... All this silver? ”

"Of course it's all silver, I don't believe you can take a bite and try it." Pomegranate Hua grabbed an ingots and handed it to Cao, looking proud.

Cao Shi took the ingots to his mouth, really bit down hard, and then shouted happily, "Ouch, it's really silver, alas, my mother has lived for most of her life, and I have never dreamed of seeing so many big ingots!" ”

"Shh Pomegranate raised her index finger and put it to her mouth, and said in a low voice: "Mother, there is an old saying that wealth is not exposed, if you shout again, the whole village knows that our family has silver, what should I do if I come to borrow it?" ”

"Oh, oh." Cao Shi came to his senses, and also suppressed his voice and asked, "Girl, so much silver is rewarded by the owner?" ”

"It's not a reward, it's a thank you," Pomegranate took an ingot, threw it in her hand twice, and asked: "Mother, this silver is enough to build a better new yard, the house we live in now is small and broken, let's push and build a new one!" ”

As soon as Cao Shi heard this, his expression immediately became nervous, he held a bag of silver in his arms, and said, "Our yard is well lived, what are we going to do with a new yard?" You are a girl's family, you will get married in two years, there is a man in Tianbao in the family, and the current house is not finished, and the silver will be kept for Tianbao to marry his daughter-in-law in the future. ”

"Tianbao is only eight years old, and the matter of marrying a daughter-in-law is still very early, besides, does it cost him so much money to marry a daughter-in-law?" When the pomegranate flower heard that the Cao family did not let the new courtyard be built, she was anxious, and glared at the Cao family angrily.

"You can't use it to build a yard, the house where your eldest sister lives is still empty, and our family can't live in it, what are you doing with all that unjust money? The silver was used to buy a few acres of high-quality paddy fields, and how good it was to plant for people. The Cao family did not agree to build the yard, and wanted to snatch the ingots in the hands of the pomegranate flower.

The pomegranate flower was fast, and hid the ingots behind him, not letting the Cao family grab it.

"You are a girl, what are you doing with so much silver, give it to me." Cao Shi stared at the pomegranate flower.

"No, I'm a big girl, and I have to keep some pocket money on me." Pomegranate Hua stuffed the ingots into her arms and shouted: "I earned the silver, and I can't keep some flowers yet." ”

Cao said: "There is food and clothing at home, where do you spend it?" ”

"I don't want to spend anywhere, I feel comfortable in my heart." Pomegranate regretted giving all the silver to the Cao family, and knew that she would be able to save it in the town's money bank.

"Carry it, carry it, you can't spend it in the village anyway." Cao gave up the idea of snatching the ingots in the pomegranate flower's arms.

She thought, holding nine in her arms, plus the one she got back in front of the pomegranate flower, there are also one hundred taels, except for the Lizheng family in the village, no one has such silver, and it's okay to put one in the girl's place.

"Eccentric, thinking about everything." Pomegranate pouted and picked out pastries on the table, these pastries are mung bean cakes, mint cakes and the like suitable for summer, Cao just said that Tianbao can't eat it, so take it to others to eat.

Cao knew who the pomegranate flowers were going to give the pastries, and they didn't stop her, but when the girl went out, she confessed: "Remember to come back early for dinner, kill the chicken at noon." ”

The pomegranate didn't say a word, and walked out.

"Dead girl, I've been in town for more than a month, and I've grown in temper." Cao Shi stared at the back of the pomegranate flower and muttered, and happily carried the silver into the house.

Pomegranate knocked on the door of the next courtyard, Tao quickly ran out of the house, opened the door and saw that it was pomegranate flower, his face was full of surprise, and hurriedly beckoned her into the house, "It's pomegranate, you're back, come in, come in, I miss you these days." ”

"Aunt, this is the snack I just brought back from town in the morning, can you try it to taste?" After entering the hospital, the pomegranate flower handed the dim sum to Dow.

Tao took it and said with a smile: "Gu is not a picky eater, there is no such thing as whether it is suitable for taste, you will come to see me as soon as you get home, and it is sweet for Gu to not eat dim sum in her heart." ”
