Chapter 36 The Fraud

Bai Mei's eyes rolled, and she didn't know what she was thinking, but she didn't pick up.

"You go to the hall to listen, see what your uncle is doing when he comes back, I look at him with a bad face." Chopped a cabbage, Bai Qi's face looked better, and he whispered: "Be careful, don't let your grandmother and your uncle find out." ”

"Let me do this again, turn around and beat me, and my mother won't help me." Bai Mei stomped her foot and complained reluctantly.

"Who am I doing this for? Over the years, most of the money your father has earned has been given to you for milk, but your uncle has only given less than half. In case your uncle comes back to get the money, and the time comes to divide the family, we will have to have one less. The silver is in our second room, and your dowry is in it. Bai Qi glared at his daughter and shouted, "Don't go yet!" ”

As soon as Bai Mei heard that it was related to her dowry, she slipped out of the kitchen.

In ancient times, women discussed their relatives early, and many times adults did not shy away from talking to children, and Bai Mei understood the importance of dowry.

In the house, Bai Dashu had already said the reason why he was going home, and Mrs. Bai jumped to her feet angrily when she heard the words.

"I'll just say that the three rooms are all white-eyed wolves that can't be raised, and that little has made so much money, and I didn't say that I was a big flower who was a milk, so I asked them for an explanation!" Mrs. Bai couldn't sit still when she heard the silver, where did she remember what she was warned by the village chief a few days ago.

"What did you say when my mother went?" Bai Dashu opened his mouth and looked at the angry old lady Bai.

"What do you say? I ask my sons for money, and they dare not give it, that is unfilial! Mrs. Bai scolded.

"Mother, don't forget, the third room has been divided." Bai Dashu held back the anger in his heart and tried his best to speak in a normal tone.

A few days ago, when Mrs. Bai and Bai Sanshu's father and daughter made a fuss in the town, Bai Dashu was embarrassed to go out, and he always felt that others were laughing at him.

But Mrs. Bai is her mother-in-law, and she has silver in her hand, Bai Dashu can't be angry with her, but she hates Sanfang, blaming them for making trouble in the town without knowing the severity of it, and giving him no face.

"It's also my son who is divided!" Mrs. Bai said stiffly, but she thought of what she said to catch Kuainiang and the village chief, and she couldn't help but feel a little bottomless.

"My mother raised the third child, and she also helped to raise the child, and she was tired and sick. Now that the third room is out, it's time to honor my mother. Bai Dashu picked up the porcelain bowl and saw that it was just a bowl of white water, so he frowned and put it down, and said in a cold tone: "There are so many children in the third room, you can't spread the slightest unfilial news." ”

Mrs. Bai's eyes rolled, and she sat on the edge of the kang again, and said hatefully: "Those little in the third room are not easy to deal with, last time Bai Ling's dead girl said, I want the silver in the third room, unless I am seriously ill, the doctor said that I want to continue my life, they will give the medicine money directly to the doctor, and they will not pass my hands." ”

"My son has been in the town for so many years, but he knows a doctor." Bai Dashu stroked his cuffs, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a grim smile.

"Then what are you waiting for, hurry up and invite the doctor!" Mrs. Bai immediately slapped the table and shouted: "Those unfilial beasts in the third room, see if I don't pinch them to death this time." ”

Although there are many medicinal materials at the foot of the mountain, they can't stand the sweep of the villagers, and now those young babies go for a walk every day, and they can hardly pick medicinal materials such as honeysuckle flowers.

Fortunately, Sanfang doesn't expect to make money now, and there are a lot of things at home to prepare for the winter, and there is no delay.

"Second sister, I blanched all the wild vegetables and salted them with salt as you said. There isn't much salt left at home, and after a few days the pickles won't be enough, so you can buy some more when you go to town. Bai Wei has been digging wild vegetables almost for the past two days, afraid that there will be no vegetables to eat in winter.

"Well, when I went back, I bought pickled vegetables and autumn vegetables directly in the town." Bai Ling nodded, and prepared to make pimple soup with noodles, "Our family has a large population, so we have to pickle a few jars of sauerkraut, and we have to leave two mouthfuls of frozen goods in winter." Look at what is missing, I just bought it. ”

"At this time, the thin fabric is cheap, and the second sister will buy some if she looks at the cost-effective ones, and our family's clothes will not be able to wear them next year." Bai Wei looked at the old clothes on her body and gritted her teeth.

Looking at Bai Wei with some surprise who took the initiative to let her spend money, the corners of Bai Ling's mouth raised a smile, "Progress!" ”

Bai Wei blushed and said embarrassedly: "There is a second sister who can earn money, why should I have trouble with myself." ”

"You make a lot of money yourself, and you should buy two clothes to treat yourself." Bai Ling said, saw the pimple went down to the pot, and said to Bai Wei: "Help me watch the pot, I'll go beat a few eggs." ”

"Hey." Bai Wei answered, quietly breathing a sigh of relief.

Since the two sisters quarreled, there was always something wrong with each other in private, and Bai Wei was not comfortable in her heart.

With more money in the family, Bai Wei gradually understood the meaning of Bai Ling's words, and understood that Bai Ling was not the kind of person who spent money indiscriminately regardless of the consequences.

It's just that Bai Wei has a pungent temperament, and she doesn't know how to open her mouth when she wants to apologize several times.

As soon as the family finished dinner, Bai Sanshu sat at the door weaving straw curtains.

Because of Bai Ling's proposal, Bai Liu, who finished making the cotton clothes and shoes of the family, took out the shabby cotton clothes that could no longer be worn and dismantled them, planning to sew them into a cloth curtain.

In winter, it is better to nail it together with the straw curtain and hang it on the door to block the wind and snow.

"Second uncle, my milk is sick, go and take a look!" Bai Mei trotted all the way to the third room and shouted at Bai Sanshu.

"What's wrong with your milk?" Bai Sanshu threw down the straw curtain and grabbed Bai Mei's arm and asked.

"Third uncle, let go, you scratched me." Bai Mei took a step back, patted her sleeves in disgust, looked at the three rooms still wearing patches, and wondered if Bai Dashu was mistaken, but still followed Mrs. Bai's instructions and said, "I don't know, Uncle has already gone to the town to ask for a doctor, it seems to be quite serious." ”

"Baby, I'll go take a look first." Bai Sanshu shouted into the room.

"I'll go with you." The Bailiu clan hurriedly got off the kang and also followed.

"Mother can't go." When Bai Wei grabbed Bai Liu's family, Bai Ling opened his mouth to dissuade her: "My mother's health has not been very good, my mother will be sick, and she must be very weak, no matter who of you is sick, it is not good." ”

Bai Sanshu stopped and waited for Bai Liu's family, and when he heard Bai Ling say this, he hurriedly agreed: "The second girl is right, you can do needlework at home." What's the matter, I'll let Mei Yatou come over and tell you again. ”

When Bai Liu heard this, he urged Bai Sanshu to hurry over, and took off his shoes and went to the kang.

Bai Ling has been paying attention to Bai Mei, and seeing that her eyes are rolling around looking at her home, she has no intention of being in a hurry at all, and she can't help but be suspicious.

"Cousin, my grandmother is sick, why aren't you in a hurry to go back?" Bai Ling asked.

"I'm not a doctor, so it's useless to go back." Bai Mei turned her face away with a weak heart, and didn't dare to look at Bai Ling.

"Which doctor did the uncle invite for milk?" Bai Ling asked with a look of concern.

"I ...... Who knows, the uncle didn't say it, anyway, it's in the town. Bai Mei replied, afraid that Bai Ling would ask again, so she hurriedly said, "I'll go back, my grandmother is very sick this time, and I don't know how much silver is enough to see a doctor, so you need to prepare some silver." ”

Seeing Bai Mei turn around and run, Bai Ling squinted his eyes and sniffed out the smell of conspiracy.
