Let's say that after Mrs. Bai went home full of anger, she scolded the sky and the earth for a while, and went back to the house to fill the bowl of water when she was thirsty, and her mind was all about what Bai Dashu said after returning home last night.

Yesterday, Mrs. Bai was not in a good mood, so she yelled at Bai Qi's family, and used all the words she used to scold Bai Liu's family, and the angry Bai Qi family pulled her daughter and went to Bai Ershu, who was a small housekeeper in the landlord's house, to cry.

The angry old white lady slaughtered a chicken and planned to eat it alone, but he didn't want Bai Dashu to come back at this time.

"Boss, why are you back?"

As soon as Mrs. Bai saw her eldest son, a chrysanthemum flower was piled up with folds on her face, and she hurriedly wiped the edge of the kang with her sleeve, and scolded in her mouth:

"These unconscious brutes, I kindly wanted to hold the money for the third child to sell fish, but they were kicked out by their family, and they wanted to beat me. The second child's family is not good, I just said a few words to her, and took my daughter to find the second child. Something that can't even give birth to a son, sooner or later the second child will divorce her! ”

Bai Dashu frowned impatiently, and listened to Mrs. Bai chatter for a while before he spoke: "Mother, how much silver is there at home?" ”

"What are you asking for?" Mrs. Bai was stunned for a moment, her triangular eyes stared at Bai Dashu, but she didn't answer.

"The owner is going to open a new restaurant in Fucheng, and the shopkeeper of the county seat will be transferred, and there will be a vacancy there. Now the shopkeepers in several towns want to pass, and the years I have been in the restaurant are short, unless I can be recommended by the big shopkeeper, or there is no chance to pass. ”

Bai Dashu knew that his mother regarded money as her life, so she got straight to the point:

"If you go to the county seat, your salary will more than double, and the reward given by the owner will be a lot more every year. And the business in the county is good, and there is a lot of oil and water. I heard that if you do a good job as a shopkeeper in the county, the owner will also live in the house, and you can save a lot of rent a year alone. ”

"Is this really a good thing?" Mrs. Bai's eyes lit up, obviously very interested.

"Every year, I have to go to the county seat to submit the account book to the owner, and I have seen the big shopkeeper, who is dressed in satin clothes, just like the landlord, and wears a jade pendant on his waist."

Bai Dashu compared the size of the jade pendant, and saw that the light in Mrs. Bai's eyes was even worse, so he continued:

"The son of the big shopkeeper studied in the county school because of the owner's family, and he was admitted to Tongsheng at the age of fifteen. In the future, follow the big shopkeeper to Fucheng, and the future will be better, maybe you can become a big official. ”

Mrs. Bai's eyes rolled, and she longed for what Bai Dashu said.

However, collecting money and taking out money are two different things, and I didn't give a reply for a long time.

Bai Dashu's mouth was dry, and he couldn't get a response from Mrs. Bai, and his face couldn't help but be a little ugly, "Mother is giving me a good word, if our family's money doesn't come together, I will go back over there, and this kind of good thing will be given to others." ”

"Boss, how sure are you that you can make it? How much money does it cost to do this? Mrs. Bai couldn't resist the temptation and asked.

"That's the number."

Bai Dashu held out a finger.

"We spend a lot of money in the town, and we have saved a dozen taels of silver over the years. Don't worry, the person who did the work for me this time is the person next to the big shopkeeper. When the matter is done, I will take my mother and go to the county to enjoy the blessings. The land of the family is rented out, and some rent is collected. In less than a year, I will be able to pay back all the money, buy a girl for my mother to serve, and my mother will wait to be an old lady. ”

Mrs. Bai swallowed her saliva, and her wrinkled hands rubbed vigorously, as if she could rub out silver.

"Boss, how can there be so much silver at home. If you are not in a hurry, my mother will give you fifty taels of silver to move around, and the rest will be given when the matter is done. ”

Mrs. Bai had a small calculation in her heart, and she didn't look at her unintended face, and continued:

"I'll try to find a way to deal with the silver, but it's not enough. Let your daughter-in-law talk to your father-in-law's family, and help make it up. ”

Bai Dashu nodded with a bad face and didn't say anything more.

Over the years, Bai Dashu has given more than 100 taels of silver to Mrs. Bai, plus the silver handed in by the second child, the silver for farming and hunting in the third room, if you want to say that Mrs. Bai does not have 200 taels in her hand, Bai Dashu will definitely not believe it.

But Mrs. Bai refused to take the silver, and Bai Dashu had no choice but to take as much as he could.

On the second day, Bai Dashu returned to the town with fifty taels of silver.

Mrs. Bai went to Bai Ershu, told him about it, and knocked out another ten taels of silver from Bai Ershu's hand, and then went home satisfied, not even mentioning that Bai Qi's mother and daughter did not go home.

When she returned to the village, it was already dark, and every family had finished dinner, and most of the women sat in the shade of the trees with needlework and gossiped.

"Liu, you went to the town to sell things today, but did you see the two girls of the Bai family? What the Erniu family said is true? A chubby woman asked, rubbing the hemp rope on the sole of her shoe in her hand, and her movements were swift.

"See."

Liu slapped his thigh, threw the soles of his shoes into the sewing basket, and gestured:

"I really didn't see it, that Bai Ling used to walk with his head down, and he didn't dare to say a word when he saw people. But after this separation, it's like a different person, and when he sells fish, he will say! I went late, and she packed up her bucket and was leaving. I asked the person next to her, guess what? ”

"Liu, you can say it quickly, don't sell it." A woman pushed Liu and the family, and she listened very seriously.

There is nothing lively in the countryside, and the east and west are short, and it is the pastime of these women in their leisure time, for fear that they know less than others.

"I asked several people, and they all said that Bai Ling's girl can endure it. If you have to sell fish twice a day, that is twenty or thirty, and if you have ten yuan a piece, you have to earn two or three hundred yuan a day, and three or five days is one or two silver! also caught up with the big families in the town, and sent fish over every day, and the money could not be made more. "Liu's Tu Meng is flying, as if she has seen how many fish Bai Ling has sold.

"My God, it's Bai Ling's uncle who works as the shopkeeper of the restaurant, so he earns this amount, right?" Someone was surprised.

"That's not a ......"

Mrs. Bai originally wanted to come over to rest, and by the way, show off that Bai Dashu was going to the county seat to be a shopkeeper, and there was no more promising offspring than Bai Dashu in the entire Qianshan Village.

As for whether this matter will be done, Mrs. Bai has no doubts at all, her son is very capable.

But after listening to these people's words, Mrs. Bai turned around and walked another way, going straight to the third room, and she couldn't take away all the money in the third room.

But halfway through, thinking of Bai Ling's threatening words that day, as well as the cold eyes, Mrs. Bai couldn't help but be stunned.

"I can't go to the third room, what if that evil girl does something to me? I have to find a way to stop those wolf cubs from ruining all the old lady's money! Mrs. Bai said, and went home with a gloomy face.
