Chapter 118: Giving Silver

After Shen Shuang finished speaking, he took the dishes and chopsticks to the water tank to wash, and didn't want to care about this matter anymore, as for whether those peach gums could be sold at that time, this was negative, after all, not everyone could accept new things.

Shen Shuang's words woke up Wan's family, and she suddenly realized, "Yes, yes, yes, when you go up the mountain to the peach forest to pick peach gum, you should move smaller, don't let people see it, if the whole village knows that the peach gum can be sold for money, I will peel the skin of a few of you." ”

Old man Shen turned his head to look at his granddaughter who was clumsily moving her body to scoop water and wash the dishes, thoughtfully, but he still acquiesced to Wan's approach, since the Jiang family did not give enough silver, then he could indeed cooperate with other families.

After Wan's arranged the family's itinerary for tomorrow, he happily went into the house to rest, Shen Shuang washed the dishes and returned to the house, Shen Musheng and Xu both stopped talking with a look on their faces, and Xiaoshan on the side sat on the small bench on the ground with a bewildered face holding the little wolf cub, inexplicably happy.

At this time, it was already very dark in the room, and Shen Shuang stood in place, "Dad, mother, if you have anything to say, just say it." ”

Shen Musheng is an honest man, but he also knows that he feels sorry for his daughter, but he will not resist his father, so he naturally can't help but want to say good things for his father and mother at this time, and ease the conflict between his daughter and grandma, "Xiaoshuang, the Jiang family, you will go to the town tomorrow to apologize to others, and your father will accompany you, this matter is something our family has done wrong." Don't blame your grandparents, they probably just want to sell the peach gum for more money. ”

Xu Shi also helped, "Xiaoshuang, don't worry, Ming'er and her mother should get up early to go up the mountain to pick peach gum, and see if I can pick more for you to take to the town to make amends to Miss Jiang." ”

Shen Shuang had a headache when she listened to her parents' words, and she dared to love her father and mother, and they also felt that her grandmother could sell those peach gums at a high price.

"Daddy, don't worry about this, I'll deal with it, grandma asks you to help pick peach gum, you can pick it, it's okay, you don't have a psychological burden."

As for coming back to me for help if they can't sell it when the time comes, it's actually the same, I just hope that their face slap won't be too fast.

Shen Shuang wasn't worried that they would be able to sell those peach gums, if they really could, the peach gums wouldn't even be picked by children.

Xiaoshan and the little wolf cub listened to these incomprehensible words on the sidelines, and there were many question marks in their minds.

After Jiang Zitong returned to the town, the quilts she brought naturally belonged to Shen Shuang, and she gave one of the quilts to her father and mother, and a new sheet was also used by her as a curtain to separate the kang head and kang tail between her and Xiaoshan.

Now Xiaoshan and the little wolf cub sleep together in vain, Shen Shuang also asked her mother to help make a 'wolf's den' for Baibai, although the cloth has been washed white, but the clean little wolf cub does not dislike it at all.

After entering the house, Shen Shuang took out the thousand-character text that he had newly bought for Xiaoshan to recognize words, in addition to better quality pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, Xiaoshan was very excited to see it, but he still couldn't help but show a little worry on his face, Shen Shuang could naturally understand what he was thinking, "Xiaoshan, don't worry, practice calligraphy well, don't think about anything else, my sister has silver, and when the time comes, let my father and mother go to the school in the next village to sign up for you to study with Mr." ”

Shen Shuang inquired, many villagers in Xishan Village who want their children to read and write are to let their children go to the private school opened by an old Xiucai in Dongshan Village next door to study, and even her third uncle Shen Shuisheng also went to the old Xiucai to enlighten, although she felt that she could still teach Xiaoshan, but she thought that it would be more appropriate to let Xiaoshan go to school.

After lying down, Shen Shuang didn't feel sleepy, and suddenly heard her father's voice, and her mother's voice seemed to be crying.

Shen Shuang hurriedly sat up from the kang and listened carefully, her father and mother lowered her voice when she spoke, so she couldn't hear it very clearly, but she could probably hear her mother talking about her mother's family from just a few words.

Shen Shuang still remembers the words when her grandmother scolded her mother before, and she talked about mourning stars every day, and she had been in the old Shen family for so long, and she had never seen her mother mention her grandfather's house.

Shen Shuang also asked her father in private a few days ago, and her father also sighed, saying that her mother's maiden family was very difficult, and because her grandmother Wan was suspicious all day long, she felt that her mother was subsidizing her mother's family with things, and her mother was afraid that her grandmother would be angry, so she hadn't returned to Lao Xu's house for several days.

It wasn't until they were silent and seemed to be asleep that Shen Shuang lay down to rest, and she also made a decision in her heart.

Early the next morning, Shen Shuang came back from running and scrubbed it, and while the Shen family had not yet gotten up, she rummaged through her house and found a large bag of pastries she had bought in the town, most of which she gave to her mother, and only some were going to be taken to the little hunter tomorrow and distributed to the stones and the hill to eat.

As for the rest of the old Shen family, she really didn't want to give it, and she had to weave a lie to tell the source if she gave it, she was annoyed.

"Xiaoshuang, why did you get up so early?"

Xu was sitting by the stove at this time, and suddenly saw his daughter walk into the kitchen, and couldn't help but feel a little strange.

Shen Shuang turned his head to look outside, then walked into the kitchen and handed the pastry he was holding in his arms to Xu, "Mother, this is the pastry I bought in the town and a big bag of flour, you can take advantage of grandma and their morning to pick peach gum, go to your uncle's house to have a look." ”

Shen Shuang bought these pastries yesterday and originally planned to have lunch for her family, but she didn't expect such a big fuss, she really didn't want to give them food, and it would be good to use them to borrow flowers and offer Buddha at this time.

Xu Shi looked at such a large bag of pastries handed over by her daughter, she was very surprised, but she also remembered to lower her voice, "Xiaoshuang, this, why are there so many pastries?" ”

Shen Shuang didn't want to make up a lie, so she told the truth directly, "I bought it, I heard what you said to your father last night." Mother, is there something wrong with my uncle? ”

As soon as Xu Shi heard Shen Shuang's words, his eyes couldn't help but turn red, he reached out to wipe his tears and nodded, and said in a choked voice, "Yes, your uncle accidentally fell off the back of the tile and broke his leg when he was helping people." ”

Yesterday, Xu received a letter from her mother's family, saying that her eldest brother broke his leg and borrowed a lot of money to cure it, and the family was originally poor, and her father and mother had borrowed a lot of money from people in the village.

Xu's really can't help it, she doesn't have any money on her, and Shen Musheng is the same, she is wondering if she can ask Wan's to borrow money, but last night the two couples couldn't discuss a countermeasure, Shen Musheng planned to ask Wan's this morning.

Thinking of what his daughter had just said, Xu hurriedly asked, "You just said that this is the pastry you bought?" Xiaoshuang, is it the silver given by Miss Jiang? We can't ask for other people's things. Shen Musheng happened to walk into the kitchen and heard this, and asked strangely, "What silver was given by Miss Jiang?" Xiaoshuang, what's going on? ”

Seeing that his father and mother were there, Shen Shuang thought that he would have to say this matter sooner or later, so it was better to take this opportunity to say it, "Father, I have something to tell you, in fact, this silver is correct, it should be Jiang Gongzi who gave me the silver, and I taught him how to fry river clams and boil peach gum to the chef of the restaurant, and he gave me a hundred taels of silver." ”

As for the more than 100 taels of silver before, Shen Shuang didn't say it, she felt that 100 taels of silver was enough for her father.

Shen Musheng was shocked, "Xiaoshuang, how can you take so much silver from Jiang Gongzi?" ”

"Dad, this silver is earned by myself, don't you know if you want to come to Dad, now a recipe is worth a lot of money, and now Yunlailou urgently needs some new dishes to attract new customers for them, so two dishes of one hundred taels of silver, it's really not much."

Xu also had the same worries as Shen Musheng, "But one hundred taels is really too much, Xiaoshuang, we are honest people, we can't take advantage of others, it's not kind." And your grandmother doesn't want to do business with Jiang Gongzi, this matter is that our family is sorry for others. ”

Shen Shuang: "......" suddenly didn't want to continue to talk about what should I do if I continue to explain?

Her father and mother seem to be too honest, she listens to this meaning, is she planning to let her return the silver to Jiang Zipei?

Shen Musheng and Xu Shi saw that Shen Shuang didn't speak, and the two of them were also a little nervous, Shen Musheng was afraid that the girl would be angry, "Xiaoshuang, my father and mother don't mean anything else, it's better like this, your mother and I will pick more peach gum, and if you have the chance, you can send it to the town to Jiang Gongzi, which can be regarded as a gift for them." ”

Shen Shuang had no choice but to nod, and by the way, she took out ten taels of silver from her arms and put it in her mother's hand, and by the way, she said her plan.

"Dad, mother, this is ten taels of silver, you can buy it if you see what you need, this is our family's own silver, spend it casually, I will earn more silver in the future." I'm going to take him to the town to get a doctor later, and I think there's a good chance that I'll be able to speak, and I'd like to sign him up for a private school in the village next door when he's better. ”

Shen Musheng frowned and didn't speak, but Xu shook his head directly, "Go to school? How? Your grandmother won't agree, you can't ask for this silver, you hide it yourself. ”

"Mother, don't say anything else, you take this silver first, treat your uncle first, and we'll talk about other things later."

"Damn the child, let's take it and treat the eldest brother first, if the eldest brother's leg can't be cured, it will be a big deal." Xu Shi took the silver, wiped his tears and nodded, "Okay, this silver, my mother will definitely return it to you." ”

"Mother, what do you say, what is mine is yours, what do you say." Shen Shuang saw that her mother was so polite, she was really helpless, her daughter was really not good enough, and she should have given money if such a big thing happened. Because of these ten taels of silver and these pastries, Xu's mood has also improved a lot. But she didn't dare to let Wan know about this matter, and Shen Shuang had to tell her father and mother not to show it.
