Chapter 175: I Was Deceived Again
One is afraid to see? One doesn't want to see?
"Why is that?" Chu Jiayin didn't understand a little, the people she liked didn't like her, and it was normal that she didn't dare to come to see her, but why didn't the people who liked her want to come to see her?
"You don't understand these things at your age, wait for a few more years, experience some things, and you will understand everything." The mother-in-law said and looked at her waist, and there was a light blue money bag hanging from her waist, embroidered with peach blossom patterns, bulging, and there should be a lot of silver taels.
Looking at the girl's dress, the clothes are not ordinary, this one has a rich life.
After looking at it, the mother-in-law turned around and deliberately pretended to be looking for something, and searched for a long time there.
Chu Jiayin calmly drank hot water there, looked at her, and saw that she hadn't found what she wanted after looking for a long time, she quickly stood up, walked to her mother-in-law's side, looked at her, stretched out her hand and patted her shoulder, and asked with a smile, "Mother-in-law, what are you looking for, or you tell me, I'll look for it, you go and sit." ”
"I'm looking for rice, I remember the rice I bought a few days ago, I haven't eaten a few meals, why can't I find it?" The mother-in-law's hand touched her somewhat fluffy hair, and her eyes looked around, a little puzzled.
"M?"
Chu Jiayin looked around, and finally his eyes fell on a shabby cloth bag on the side, the cloth bag was placed on the ground, and a few grains of rice could be faintly seen inside, what the mother-in-law said, could it be that.
"Mother-in-law? Are you sure you bought the rice the other day? She asked.
"Of course, that day...... I think I bought it on the first day of junior high school. ”
First? Chu Jiayin counted the days, today is not the first day of the new year, and it is only two days before the first day of the next month, that is to say, the first day of the new year in the mother-in-law's mouth should be, the first day of the new year of this month, that is, more than 20 days ago.
Where was this a few days ago?
"Mother-in-law, if you can't find it, forget it, if you're hungry, you can go to the market and buy something to eat." Chu Jiayin comforted her, she was an old man with no children and no daughters, and it seemed that her memory was not very good, otherwise how could she not even remember clearly that she had no rice, alas, it was so pitiful.
"Okay, I'll go get the silver and buy some food, you sit here and wait for me for a while, I'll buy it back at once, and eat together."
Saying that, her mother-in-law began to rummage through the cabinets again, looking for most of the circle, as if she suddenly remembered something, and looked at Chu Jiayin with a somewhat embarrassed expression, "It seems that there are no silver taels." ”
Her hands were tangled together, and there was apology in her eyes.
Chu Jiayin couldn't help but feel even more sorry for the old man, and took off the purse around his waist.
The moment she took it down, her mother-in-law's eyes lit up, and she looked at her money bag with wide eyes, tiptoeing slightly, counting the money in her money bag.
She swallowed at the sight of a silver tael on the surface of her purse.
Chu Jiayin rummaged in the money bag for a long time, and finally took out the silver tael, put the money bag back on her waist and tied it, and then walked to her mother-in-law and stuffed the silver tael into her hand.
When it was stuffed, the mother-in-law kept pushing: "Don't don't, don't, how can I accept your silver taels, how embarrassing." ”
said this verbally, and pretended to push twice, but when Chu Jiayin was about to give up the idea of shoehorning the money into her, Tian suddenly grabbed Chu Jiayin's hand and took the silver tael in her hand.
"Since you have taken the initiative to give me silver taels, then I can't help but give you face, right? Now that I have all the money, I'll buy something to eat, and before I come back, I'll bother the girl to make a fire and boil a pot of hot water, and I'll come back and show you a hand later!" ”
The mother-in-law said, pushing Chu Jiayin towards the outside of the house, in the courtyard outside the house, there was an earthen stove on the left-hand side, she pushed Chu Jiayin to the front of the earthen stove, there was a small stool in front of the earthen stove, she pointed there.
"It's here, hard girl." She stretched out her hand and patted Chu Jiayin's shoulder.
Burning out his other hand, he stretched out towards Chu Jiayin's waist, unconsciously untied the money bag on her waist, then withdrew his hand, put the money bag into his clothes, and turned to leave.
Just as she was about to walk to the door, Chu Jiayin suddenly thought of something and shouted at her back.
"But mother-in-law, your body?"
Frightened, the mother-in-law stopped abruptly and thought that she had been discovered, but after hearing what she said, she turned her back to her, secretly breathed a sigh of relief, accelerated her pace towards the front, and waved her hand with her back, "Mother-in-law, my body is tough." ”
Chu Jiayin touched her hair, looking at the way she walked, it really didn't look like what she was just now.
However, it always feels strange to me.
She slowly sat down on the small stool, picked up the dry wood next to her, and tried to make a fire.
She didn't know how to do these things, she started a fire, wasted a lot of time, and used a lot of methods to make a fire, she was sweating on her head, watching the boiling water in the pot gradually start to smoke, she wiped the sweat on her face with her dusty hands, and a few paw marks appeared on her face.
Standing up, taking a deep breath, she looked towards the door, and then looked at the sky, it was already afternoon, and her mother-in-law was about to go at noon, and it stands to reason that she should have come back a long time ago, why haven't she come back at this time.
She watched as the water in the pot was about to boil half dry.
Could it be that you didn't have enough money to buy too many things, so you got caught, right? Otherwise, she went to find out? Maybe you can run into your mother-in-law.
Thinking so, she extinguished the fire, and then touched her waist, which should have touched the hard money bag, but she felt empty, and then lowered her head, and her waist: nothing.
Hurriedly looked around, and searched all the places where she had just stayed in the house, but she didn't see her money bag.
Thinking of her mother-in-law who has not come back yet, she gradually began to feel a little uneasy in her heart, could it be that her mother-in-law took her money bag and ran away.
Thinking back to the hasty back when her mother-in-law had just left, she secretly scolded herself, and then ran out quickly.
Walk in the direction of the bazaar.
The pace was very hurried, and when she was about to reach the market, she bumped into a person head-on, and she quickly lowered her head and said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm in a hurry." After saying that, he quickly turned around and prepared to leave.
However, the man grabbed her hand directly and didn't let her go.
"Where?"
A familiar voice rang out.
She raised her head and looked at the man in front of her, who was wearing a black brocade robe that looked very old, holding a sword in his arms, he still looked good, wasn't this her master Feng Chenyue?
"Master? I haven't seen you in days, why are you here. All the poison on your body has been cleared, right? She saw that he was a little excited, and rushed forward to hug him.
Feng Chenyue rubbed her chest that had just been hit by her, then stretched out her hand and flicked her head with her fingers: "Of course it's clear, you girl, hairy, what's so urgent." ”
Being reminded by Feng Chenyue like this, Chu Jiayin remembered that her money was still in her mother-in-law's hands, and her mother-in-law must still be in the market when she took the money, she had to hurry over and maybe she could meet it, and ask her mother-in-law why she did this, and she believed in him so much.
"Master, there is a mother-in-law who stole all my money, and I have to settle accounts with her."
With that, she prepared to leave again.
Then Feng Chenyue pulled her again, and when he heard that she was being stolen money, he was even more excited than her, and he was ready to start with his sword in his hand, "You dare to steal your money, you really treat your master as air?" Let's go, take Master to find that person, and Master will come and clean her up for you. ”
The two men walked in the direction of the bazaar, almost half of the circle around the bazaar, and finally found their mother-in-law in a tailor's shop.
"Hurry up, I'm still waiting to get on my new clothes." At this time, the mother-in-law stood in front of the counter, holding a blue money bag embroidered with peach blossoms in her hand, urging the tailor shopkeeper.
When she saw what her mother-in-law was holding in her hand, Chu Jiayin immediately rushed into the house and shouted, "Mother-in-law! ”
Listening to her voice, her mother-in-law, who was facing away from her, was stunned, and then stretched out her hand to cover her face as if she didn't hear it, and at the same time she was still praying in her heart, Chu Jiayin didn't see her.
"Mother-in-law! Why are you scamming me out of my money! Chu Jiayin walked up to her, took her hand down, and then used her other hand to snatch the money bag in her palm.
When she was about to get the money bag, her mother-in-law's palm flipped over, her palm was down, and the money bag began to fall down, and when Chu Jiayin let go of her wrist and was about to pick it up, her mother-in-law stretched out her hand in time when the money bag was about to fall to the ground, pinched the money bag in the palm of her hand, and took a few steps back to keep a distance from Chu Jiayin.
"You little thief, you are quite arrogant, you dare to rob my apprentice's money." Feng Chenyue, who came later, walked in, and saw this scene, looking at the woman facing him from the side, he shouted.
Then he quickly drew his sword and pointed it at her neck.
The mother-in-law turned her head slightly to look at Feng Chenyue, her eyes were dull, she looked at him quietly, looked at him for a long time, and couldn't come back to her senses for a long time.
Feng Chenyue was also stunned, looking at the way she looked at herself, she always felt a sense of déjà vu.
"You ......"
That look was especially like an old friend of his.
"Master? Do you know this mother-in-law? Chu Jiayin looked at the two people, she slowly walked between the two people, comparing the eyes of the two people, how do you think, these two have a story? And it's extraordinary.
Feng Chenyue didn't speak, just looked at her eyes, those eyes were bright, and her face was full of wrinkles, she looked like she should be sixty or seventy years old, these eyes looked like the eyes of an old woman.
