Touching her belly, Qingwan was still thinking about going home later, and asked Liu to cook something delicious for her, and suddenly remembered that the last time she came to buy baked cakes for Wu Wen, she still owed money to the owner of the baked cake stall.

Words count, this is the most basic integrity.

Today only the man was busy alone, and his wife was not there.

Qingwan's ten copper plates were suddenly placed in front of him, and he was stunned for a long time and didn't come back to his senses.

"Girl...... You are? ”

The owner of the baked cake stall looked up at Qingwan, and said these words after holding back for a long time.

Seeing the confusion of the stall owner, Qingwan couldn't help but laugh.

"Hey, that's the girl, you really sent the money. No, no, the firewood you gave that day was enough for two baked cakes. Supposedly, we took advantage of you. ”

Qingwan's hearty laughter made the stall owner think about it.

The man picked up the copper coin from the table and was about to return it to Qingwan, but before his hand could be stretched out, a short and fat bloated body flashed over and snatched the copper coin away.

"Hey, this girl really talks the talk. It's been so long. ”

A fat face that was a little deformed with a smile shook in front of Qingwan, holding the ten copper plates tightly in his hand.

Qingwan glanced at the fat woman, her face full of disdain.

"The most important thing to be a man is integrity, don't look at me as a country girl, I am a man of words. The money has also been delivered, Coco Wu, let's go. After speaking, Qingwan pulled Wu Wen and left.

"Hey, girl, you gave too much, last time you said Wuwen ......"

The man shouted in the back, and before he finished speaking, he was covered by your fat mother-in-law.

Qingwan turned his head, saw that look, and laughed loudly and said, "Uncle, thank you, I'm happy today, and I should thank you for the old Wuwen copper plate." ”

Seeing Qingwan and them walking farther and farther, the man glared at the fat woman, broke the hand covering his mouth vigorously, took two baked cakes from the stall, and trotted all the way to catch up with Qingwan and Wu Wen.

"Girl, these two baked cakes, you can eat them on the way. My mother-in-law is not sensible, don't blame you. ”

The man's face was sincere, Qingwan was also a cheerful person, he reached out and took the baked cake, grinned, and smiled innocently, "Then, uncle, I'm welcome." Thank you. We still have to hurry, so let's go first. Thank you. ”

After speaking, he gave Wu Wen a baked cake, one for each of them, ate happily, and hurried home with a smile.

......

"Smack"

Qingwan put the burden wrapped in a hundred taels of silver on the table, turned around and took a bowl, scooped a full bowl of water from the bucket, and drank it all in one go.

Liu stood aside and shouted, "Slow down, slow down." ”

Qing Laosan was sitting in the cabin, holding a pipe in his mouth, and was lighting a fire in his hand, and was startled by the sound of Qingwan's burden on the table, and his mouth trembled, and the pipe fell to the ground.

"What are you doing, I can't sit steady when I smoke a cigarette." Qing Laosan craned his neck and yelled at Qing Wan.

Qingwan didn't make a sound, walked to the table and sat down with a big grin, raised one foot and put it on the bench next to him, wiped it on his mouth with his hand, a sly light flashed on his face, and with one hand, he gently opened the corner of the burden.

Liu followed behind Qingwan, just walked to the hatch, and caught a glimpse of the corner where Qingwan lifted up, and all the silver exposed in the burden was white flowers.

"Qingwan, what are you doing here, you went out for a day today, what did you do, you made such a big bunch."

Liu screamed in shock, pounced, and lay on top of the burden to block it.

Qing Laosan just bent over and just picked up the pipe that fell on the ground, Liu's scream, his hand shook in fright, and the pipe fell down again.

At this moment, Qing Laosan was even more annoyed, he didn't pick up the pipe, stood up all of a sudden, and shouted at Liu: "You dead mother-in-law, you are shocked, you want to scare people to death." ”

"Qing Laosan, be careful when you talk to me, who are you scolding?!" Qingwan slapped the table, showing no weakness.

"You dead girl, you're so horizontal every day! Look at Lao Tzu if he doesn't clean you up! ”

Rolling up his sleeves, Qing Laosan stepped over the bench, raised one hand high, and waved it heavily towards Qingwan.

Seeing that the father and daughter of the Qing Dynasty were fighting for themselves, Liu quickly raised his body, gently pulled Qingwan's sleeve with his hand, and said weakly: "Qingwan, don't catch fire, talk well." ”

Liu didn't finish speaking, and before she could hide, Qing Laosan slapped her in the face.

This slap hit Liu's face, and five red finger prints immediately appeared.

Qing Lao Haowen, who was sitting on the side and had fun, was stunned when he saw this scene.

When Qing Wan saw it, he glared at Qing Laosan angrily.

Liu slowly turned to the side of Qing Laosan, picked up the pipe on the ground, put it in Qing Laosan's hand, and said in a low voice: "Haowen Dad, don't be angry, they are all a family." ”

Getting closer, Qing Laosan saw the finger prints on Liu's face, after all, they were also husband and wife for many years, and they also felt that they were a little overdone, so they took the pipe, and sat down without saying a word.

"Mother, you don't care about him. Tomorrow I will go to Zhou Lizheng, let's build the house as soon as possible, and let him guard this broken ship alone when the time comes. Qingwan walked over and pulled Liu to the bench and sat down.

This sentence made Liu come back to his senses all of a sudden, and he didn't care about the hot pain on his face, and reflexively pulled Qingwan over, his eyes full of worry, "Qingwan, my mother knows." This is what I want to do all my life, but you can't do anything shady. You tell your mother the truth, what's the matter with this big burden of silver? ”

Qing Laosan had just lit the pipe, and when he heard Liu say a big bag of silver, his eyes swept to the burden on the table, and it immediately lit up. From the corner of the baggage, you can see that it is full of white flowers.

At this moment, Qing Laosan came to his senses, stood up and pounced.

Qingwan heard Liu's words, laughed, and was about to explain to Liu. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Qing Laosan's movements, rolled up his hands, and the burden was placed on her back steadily.

"Qing Laosan, you are delusional!"

Qing Wan stared at Qing Laosan, and jumped towards Qing Laosan with hatred one by one.

Seeing that Qingwan had already prepared, he pounced on himself, and Qing Laosan was unwilling, but after hearing Qingwan's words, this silver seemed to be used to repair and build a house, so he sat down quietly and no longer argued with Qingwan.

Qing Lao San was young, so he lived with his father on this broken ship, and married Liu when he grew up. This Liu family is also poor, but he has no dislike, follow him, have children, and have most of his life.

In fact, Qing Laosan has always been envious of those who have houses. On this boat, floating on the water all year round, not to mention the heavy humidity, I am afraid of encountering extreme weather, strong winds, and heavy rain, and the family is worried on this boat. Seeing that other people's families live on the shore, although it is not a deep courtyard, but it is much better than his broken boat.

Liu's thoughts, Qing Laosan knew very well in his heart, and he sometimes felt a little guilty about this woman. After all, she is her own woman, but she suffers with him.

It's just that this house repair and construction cost a lot of silver, and he knows how many catties and taels he has. Just by relying on him to catch a few broken fish on the Lancang River, he can't save enough money for a few lifetimes.

In the end, Qing Laosan gave up and indulged in the cup.

Anyway, life is like this.

"Mother, this silver. I've earned it in the bright light, don't worry! ”

Seeing that Qing Laosan was sitting honestly on the side, Qingwan threw the silver on the table again and patted it for Liu.

Qing Lao Haowen took advantage of the empty space of a few people's conversations, and quietly opened the baggage, his eyes shining brightly.

"Wow, sister, so much silver!"

Qing Lao Haowen's exclamation sucked the eyes of Qing Laosan and Liu's eyes, and the two saw a large pile of silver, Qing Laosan secretly counted it, and it turned out to be a full hundred taels!

"Qingwan, really?"

Liu's face did not have the same surprise as Qing Laosan's, but a deeper layer of worry was enveloped.

Seeing that Liu was still worried, Qingwan smiled, pressed Liu's shoulder, and said, "Mother, it's really true." This is really my own earnings, I'm your daughter, you don't know yet, I won't earn crooked silver. ”

While speaking, Qingwan took out the contract he signed with Wei Pingchuan from his arms, unfolded it and put it on the table.

Where is Liu's literacy, Qing Lao Haowen volunteered to take it and read it aloud.

Although this Qing Lao Haowen learned a few words from the old Xiucai in the village, he didn't know many words, and he stumbled and stumbled, and none of them were read smoothly.

Qingwan snatched it, crackling for a while, just like fried beans, and read out the contents of the contract word for word.

"Wow, sister, how can you know so many words, you are even more powerful than that Zhang Xiucai!" Qing Lao Haowen exclaimed again, looking at Qing Juan, his eyes were full of worship.

Not only Qing Lao Haowen, but also Liu and Qing Laosan, all of them opened their eyes wide and looked at Qing Wan in surprise.

This girl, since she was a child, has been helping Qing Laosan to fish and support her family, not to mention going to school, even following Lao Xiucai like Qing Lao Haowen has never been literate.

This word, when did Qingwan learn it.

"Clear ...... Wan...... When did you learn to read? ”

It took Liu a long time to come back to his senses, and he asked in a daze.

The family's surprised gaze, Qingwan naturally saw it.

It's over, it's over, how do you explain it?

"Hey, mother, where can I read! This is all written to me by the old man Wei, and I specially found a fortune teller on the street to help me read it, and it is exactly the same as what the old man Wei said. I've said this twice, so I naturally memorized it. This is all in Meng Haowen, I want him to learn words well in the future, and you still believe it. Hahahaha. After that, there was a burst of laughter.
