Chapter 91
It turns out that God still favors a little girl like Mingxiu, or rather, Mingmu's prayers are not heard by God, who is busy with personnel.
When Ming's father went to sell surplus grain, he came to the door and said that someone had taken a good look at their house and wanted to buy it, and asked if he could go to see the house at any time.
Originally, they were going back to Tubao Village, Mingxiu didn't give any objections, after making an appointment to see the house, they took the keys to the house, and asked Xie Zhan and Ye Ziming to transport the food back first, and here Mingxiu and Ming's mother packed up and then went over.
Seeing that Ming's mother was worried, Mingxiu smiled, "Mother, don't you want to sell our house?" ”
Glancing at Mingxiu, Ming's mother sighed, "The house and the ground are the roots!" No matter how much money you have in your hand, you don't have a house or a place at home. ”
This does not mean not to believe in Mingxiu, in fact, Ming's mother's heart is the same as Mingxiu, believing that even if she sells the house now, she can still earn it back with her own hands and hard work.
But being able to leave a way out is more reassuring for them.
"Mother, don't worry, I have left a way out for our family."
Not to mention the one thousand taels in Xie Zhan's hand, Mingxiu has calculated it, it's just the silver money in their hands, as long as they are a little tight on the road, by the way, see if there is any way to make money on the road, and when they arrive in the capital, they can build a decent house in the villages around the capital if they leave about one hundred taels in their hands.
As for settling in the capital, the days to come will be long, who knows if it will be possible?
That's after the accumulation of wealth.
Under Mingxiu's calculations, as long as there is not much trouble on the road, it is not difficult for them to settle down.
Ming's mother frowned, "What retreat did you leave?" What she can ask is, what retreat can Mingxiu leave?
After selling the house and land, all they had in their hands was money.
And how much money Mingxiu has in his hands, Ming's mother knows best, even if Ming's father doesn't know as much about it as she does.
Don't look at a few hundred taels of silver in the border city, it seems like a lot, but Ming's mother has self-knowledge, the place they want to go is the capital, at the foot of the Son of Heaven, where is it so easy to beg for life?
Even if they have some silver left after they reach the capital, how much can they have left?
It is definitely not enough for them to settle down in the capital, and Ming's mother has been doing it for a long time to live by renting a house and sending people to live under the fence.
Wait until they gradually recover before they can think about settling down.
It is also for this reason that when packing up, Ming's mother is particularly careful, from pots and pans to clothes, shoes and socks, but she is not willing to leave anything that can be used and taken away.
Ming's mother didn't think about the possibility of making money on the road, in her opinion, their line of old and weak women and children, it is good to not be in danger on the road, where can there be opportunities to make money?
Even if there is, it won't be Mingxiu's turn to be a fledgling little girl.
Seeing that Ming's mother was full of disbelief, Mingxiu smiled, and didn't elaborate, the idea in her heart is just an idea now, whether it can come true or not is two words, or don't open your mouth to let Mingmu have hope and finally be disappointed.
If you can really do it, you will definitely not be able to hide it from her.
It's really not good, isn't there still Xie Zhan?
He put it in Mingxiu's hand and told her that the thousand taels that she could spend casually became the last hole card in her heart.
Even if it is her parents, she has never opened a ** generation.
It's not because of distrust, but because the wealth is not exposed, with such a large denomination of property, the fewer people who know about it, the better, and even if they know, they won't agree to Mingxiu to use it.
It's good for her to bear all the burdens, as for the parents......
Mingxiu looked at Ming's mother's face, which was obviously much older than others, and her heart ached.
Isn't it caused by worrying too much?
Her parents are only in their thirties this year, and they are still in the prime of life in modern times, but Ming's father and mother have vicissitudes on their faces, just looking at their faces, that is, they are in their fifties.
At the beginning, when Myung-so didn't know the real age of her parents, she thought so.
The good days didn't last long, where was Ming's mother willing to let her parents worry about it anymore?
In this backward dynasty where sixty years old is already considered a long life, Mingxiu thought, maybe it's time for them to enjoy their old age in peace, right?
What if you don't have a son?
As a daughter, she can also support her parents.
Seeing that Mingxiu just smiled and didn't say anything, Ming's mother sighed in her heart, her daughter knew that if Mingxiu was not completely sure, she would not have made such a promise.
That's it, after this girl has a future, she can't manage it, as long as Mingxiu doesn't lock up bad things, Ming's mother has decided to let her go.
"You're older, my mother can't take care of it, so I can help you do some chores."
The family population is not large, but someone still has to do the housework, since Mingxiu has contracted the work of making money to support the family, what she and Ming's father can do is just to let Mingxiu have no worries.
"It's almost packed, let's go."
Look at the time, and when they arrive at Tubao Village, the seller who looks at the house is almost there.
Although Xie Zhan and Ye Ziming were there, as the owners of the house, they still had to be present.
"Go find your dad first."
Ming's mother's voice fell, and Ming's father walked in from outside.
"What are you looking for me to do?"
This couple is really smart, Mingxiu smiled with an aunt, "Someone wants to buy our house, my mother and I are planning to call you together, you are coming back, it is worthy of being a husband and wife for many years, there is really a tacit understanding!" ”
Ming's father couldn't cry or laugh, why did he give birth to such a cheeky daughter, "You are so bold, you dare to make fun of your old son?" ”
The fact that he happened to come back was really not a tacit understanding, but he just happened to sell out the food that the family couldn't eat.
Besides, he didn't know that anyone was going to buy his own house, let alone come back in a hurry.
Knowing that Ming's father wasn't really angry, Mingxiu stepped forward with a smile, "This is what you are used to!" ”
Seeing her appearance of not being ashamed but proud, Ming's father and mother glanced at each other and shook their heads again and again.
This girl's temperament really doesn't know who to follow.
"Don't pester your dad to be coquettish, it's a big girl who is so shameless, hurry up, don't let people wait."
Ming's mother nodded Mingxiu's little nose and pulled her outside.
"Mother, don't be jealous, don't I be coquettish to you every day, can I easily pester my father once......"
Her directness can be said to be a maverick in this implicit ancient time, but fortunately, it is only in her own house, Ming's father and Ming's mother also spoil her, and the occasional trick is also used to being cute, if it is outside, someone has to say that this girl has no rules.
Compared with those girls who see their parents and are like mice and cats, Mingxiu is indeed a little bold.
