Chapter Seventy-Five: Redeeming the Zhao Family's Grandmother
"You!"
Bai Qian was so angry that he gritted his teeth, a pair of cold eyes were bloodshot, and he looked at Liu Cuiping with a cold expression.
Just as she was about to ask, she saw Zhao Daniu and Zhao Erniu running out of the house in a hurry, looking at their appearance, Bai Qianning thought that they still had some conscience, and they were reluctant to let their grandmother leave, but they didn't want these two sisters to be completely her mother's copy.
Zhao Daniu put her hand on the waist of the bucket, shook the fat on her face and walked towards Bai Qianning and said, "Ten taels is too little, unless you personally take us to Tianxianglou to earn silver, otherwise don't want to take my grandma away." ”
"That's it! Grandma can still help with the work at home, and she can't let you take it away for nothing. ”
Zhao Erniu also echoed, and her heart was already beautiful because of the snowflake silver that was about to arrive, as if she had completely forgotten the big joke that her family had just made.
"She's your own grandmother! Do you only think of her as a commodity for money? ”
Bai Qianning only felt that it was too merciful to let Han Ziyan let them go last time,
All right! Don't you want to go where to earn money? Then I will fulfill you.
Bai Qianning made a decision in his heart, the corners of his lips rose slightly, and then he asked: "Okay, I promise you, but in front of the villagers, I have to say ugly things in front of the villagers, not everyone who goes to that place can earn money, and I can't guarantee your safety, if something goes wrong, don't rely on me." ”
"You, don't try to scare us!"
Zhao Erniu listened to Bai Qianning's words, and had some concerns, even if she was a frog at the bottom of the well, she knew what place the Qinglou was. Just thinking about the white money, but unwilling to give up this opportunity, he said: "Don't think I don't know, you just want to monopolize such a good financial route, you just take us there, and you won't be sorry for you when the time comes." ”
"Huh!" Bai Qianning snorted, she could also see that Zhao Erniu's heart was weak, and secretly sighed that if this person was greedy, he would even lie to himself.
Seeing that Zhao Daniu also nodded, Bai Qianning turned around and said to the people outside the courtyard: "Folks, you have to testify to me!" The Zhao sisters asked me to introduce them to Tianxianglou in Chechi County to earn silver, you may not know what Tianxianglou is, as long as you remember that today's matter is the Zhao sisters' own willingness, and it has nothing to do with me if something happens in the future. ”
The neighbors who watched the excitement outside the courtyard heard it in a fog, and there were many people who really thought it was a good deal, and they thought about asking Bai Qianning alone after a while.
But just because most people don't know doesn't mean they don't know at all.
At this time, a few young people in the village who often ran out to work began to talk in a whisper, they probably had heard some rumors about Tianxianglou, and with them as a commentary, after muttering for a while, almost everyone present knew that the Zhao sisters were in a hurry to sell.
Zhao Daniu and Zhao Erniu saw that the people in the courtyard were talking a lot, but they couldn't hear what they were talking about, so they were busy urging: "Do you agree?" If I didn't agree, I locked my grandmother back in the circle. ”
"Good! I promise! ”
With a wicked smile on the corner of Bai Qian's lips, he decisively agreed, and only said: "You come to me early tomorrow morning, and I will personally take you into the city, but Grandma Zhao, I will take it away now." ”
"Seriously?"
Liu Cuiping, who stood on the side for a long time without squeaking, listened to this, and couldn't wait to throw the sun above her head and lift it up again, and directly travel to tomorrow morning.
hurriedly responded for the two daughters: "Okay, it's okay to take it away, you have to give ten taels of silver first, otherwise you run away with someone, won't I have nothing to lose?" ”
Bai Qianning saw Liu Cuiping open her mouth again, but unexpectedly did not bargain with her, took out ten taels of silver from the cuff and handed it to Liu Cuiping, and then helped Grandma Zhao to walk out of the courtyard before Liu Cuiping could react.
At this time, not only Liu Cuiping's family was surprised, but the villagers outside the courtyard were also dumbfounded.
And the three brothers and sisters of the Xu family saw Bai Qianning coming out with Grandma Zhao in her arms, and hurriedly greeted her.
Xu Xiumei saw that a few ingots of silver from the white flowers entered the Zhao family's pocket like this, and persuaded unconvinced: "Sister Qian, why did you agree so quickly, it was ten taels of silver, which was enough to build a room." ”
Hearing this, Bai Qianning only smiled faintly, and continued to hug Grandma Zhao and said, "Grandma, I will take you home, and you will live with me in the future." ”
"Hey! Ay! ”
Grandma Zhao agreed with a smile, not to mention how happy she was on her face.
Continuing to walk, Bai Qianning began to explain to the Xu family brothers and sisters: "Although ten taels of silver is a lot, it is worth it to get grandma out of the control of that white-eyed wolf." Silver, earned is to be spent, in the future, you follow me, I promise to make you no longer worry about silver. ”
"Huh?" Xu Xiuzhu didn't seem to be happy because of this promise, but said with concern: "But...... Where did you come of this money...... If you go to that kind of place to earn money, I'm afraid that you won't be able to get married in the future. ”
"Where do you want to go?"
Bai Qianning secretly felt funny, reached out and gently tapped Xiuzhu's head and said: "What the sisters of the Zhao family said just now is just that I fooled them, you can rest assured, my silver is earned cleanly, not what you think." But then again, now that I have a free body, and I have also taken Grandma Zhao out, I can't borrow it all the time, and it's time to build a house. ”
"White girl, you want to build a house?"
The stone seemed to be a little lost, and he said again after a long time: "Actually, you can live in my house, and if the grandmother of the Zhao family wants to live, I will take out the firewood room, change my house to her, and I will live in the firewood room." ”
"Well, I know you mean well, but I have my own ideas, and if you really want to help me, go to the village and find some carpenters and masons for me."
Bai Qianning said, and suddenly remembered something, so he asked, "By the way, who is in charge of the land in the village?" I'm going to pick a piece of land to see the house. ”
"Masons and carpenters are easy to find, and leave them to me. It's just that this land is hard to say, the power is in the control of the village chief, if you want to buy land, I'm afraid that you will be blackmailed with a large sum of silver. ”
The whole village knew the village chief's temperament, and Shi couldn't help but be a little worried.
Hearing this, Bai Qianning didn't take it seriously, for a person like her, who held the space, things that could be solved with silver were not a matter.
Along the way, Bai Qianning asked a lot of information about the topography and lakes in the village, she has always liked places with water, and building a house is naturally chosen by the water, it is rare that people in the village rely on wells to use water, and she will not affect the lives of the villagers if she chooses a lake to build a house.
Several people discussed while walking, and soon returned to the Xu family, but when passing by Zhan Qianche's courtyard, Bai Qianning couldn't help but look towards the courtyard, but still could only see the closed door, but now he was busy settling Grandma Zhao, Bai Qianning really couldn't spare time to find him, so he could only go home with the Xu sisters.
Although the Xu family and the Zhao family have enmity, they know that Grandma Zhao suffers in the Zhao family on weekdays, so when they heard that Bai Qianning was going to take Grandma Zhao over to take care of herself, Aunt Xu didn't say anything, but asked Xu Xiumei to get more dishes and chopsticks and have breakfast together.
It's just that after a meal, Aunt Xu didn't move her chopsticks much, and even Uncle Xu wanted to add rice again but was stopped by Aunt Xu, Aunt Xu reminded Uncle Xu with her eyes, and then took Grandma Zhao's bowl and prepared to add food to her.
Bai Qianning could see that he was afraid that the Xu family's rice tank had run out of food.
For the Xu family, Bai Qianning was grateful, and quickly finished eating the rice in the bowl, Bai Qianning grabbed Aunt Xu, who was about to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, took out ten taels of silver from the cuff and handed it to her and said: "Auntie, your family is a good person, I really don't know how to express my gratitude to you, you take these silver to subsidize the family first, I have already told the eldest girl and Brother Shi, and I will take them with me when I go to the city to earn money in the future, I dare to guarantee that this good day is still to come." ”
"No, no, no! How can I ask for your money? Shut it up, auntie..... Auntie, there's still this, there's still that! ”
Aunt Xu hurriedly pushed back, she had been poor all her life, except for the money she gave Bai Qianning to redeem herself last time, she had never seen so much silver at one time.
"Auntie, just take it!" Bai Qianning didn't give her a chance to return it at all, stuffed the silver into her arms, and said deliberately: "If you don't take it, I'm embarrassed to trouble you if I have something." ”
