Chapter 8: Trigger side quests
The Bai family walked out, but in his heart, he felt more and more that everyone in the Jiang family had something to hide from him.
After sending the Bai family away, Li Cuilan went to work in the field. Seeing this, Jiang Liang hurriedly beckoned his younger brother Jiang Jinbao to come to him, and leaned close to him and whispered in his ear.
"Sister, what is this going to do?"
Jiang Jinbao listened to the eldest sister's words, he didn't understand what she meant, and couldn't help but look at her in confusion.
"You do what I say, it's good to keep it."
Jiang Liang didn't explain to his younger brother, and directly let him go out. Jiang Jinbao saw that the eldest sister didn't say anything, touched his head, and ran out.
Seeing that the little brother ran away, Jiang Yun came to Jiang Li's side and asked softly, "Eldest sister, what did you say to the little brother just now?" Do you have some secrets hiding from us? ”
Jiang Liang couldn't help but glance at the second sister when he heard this, this sister is a smart one.
"It's nothing, didn't we go to the old mansion early in the morning? The uncle promised to lend us money, but there was one condition, if we could not repay the money within a month, we would take the land to pay off the debt. We've made a note with the village chief, and the matter is settled. ”
"Huh?"
Jiang Yun didn't expect the eldest sister to make such a big decision, and she was suddenly surprised.
"Be quiet."
Jiang Liang took the second sister's hand and motioned her to be quiet, so as not to be heard by Li Cuilan.
"Eldest sister, don't you want your mother to know about this?"
"Do you think a mother's temperament can hide things?"
Jiang Yun was stunned by the eldest sister's words, and then shook her head, "As long as Dad scares her, my mother won't be able to resist." ”
"That's not it."
Jiang Liang sighed helplessly, and he didn't know what to do with such a cowardly mother in the future.
Seeing the eldest sister's worried look, Jiang Yun couldn't help but put her hand on her shoulder and comforted her softly.
"Eldest sister, don't worry, no matter what happens in the future, we will always be by your side."
Jiang Liang couldn't help but smile slightly when she heard this, although her parents were unreliable, her younger brothers and sisters were really good to her.
Anyway, since she came here to be their sister, she will take responsibility for taking care of them.
After a while, Jiang Jinbao ran back with an excited face, slapped the few coins in his hand on the table, and asked Jiang Liang happily: "Eldest sister, did you already know that the third aunt would give me money?" ”
"What's going on?"
Jiang Yun was also stunned when she saw the money on the table, and hurriedly asked.
"When I ran out, I was stopped by the third aunt, who pulled me into a corner and asked me what I was doing this morning. When I didn't speak, she shoved money into my hand. Then I told her about going to the old house with my eldest sister to borrow money. ”
Jiang Jinbao looked at the three monnies on the table, he didn't expect to earn it so easily from the third aunt who picked the door, and he couldn't help but feel a little proud.
"Sister, what should we do next?"
"What to do?"
Jiang Liang looked at his younger brothers and sisters and couldn't help but laugh. "I don't know what's in the ground, so don't think about it. Let's wait and see what happens. ”
Seeing that Jiang Liang was reluctant to continue the topic, the sister and brother glanced at each other and did not continue to ask.
Jiang Liang has some kind of speculation in his heart, I'm afraid that the Jiang family's land really has some origin, otherwise his grandfather would not have acquiesced when his eldest son proposed that condition.
Although Jiang Dahai is talking nonsense, he may not really know anything about it.
As the saying goes, there may not be no cause, and some things are not as simple as they seem.
"By the way, you said that I was raising my family before, what did I do before?"
Jiang Liang suddenly thought of this stubble and couldn't help but ask.
"Oh no, big sister, you really forgot everything!"
Jiang Jinbao screamed again and again when he heard the eldest sister ask, even Jiang Yun couldn't help but show a melancholy expression, so he explained softly.
"Eldest sister, you forgot, you used to make needlework for the town's embroidery workshop, and you can earn thirty yuan a month!"
"Oh, I forgot."
Jiang Liang looked at the calluses on his hands, and then he knew why these hands had such calluses, and he couldn't help but feel a little distressed about his predecessor. It's really hard to have such a family.
If you can hope that she can travel to herself, if nothing else, the money she saved should be enough for her to live in the future.
But she couldn't do it, and she didn't take a needle and thread at all.
Just when Jiang Liang was thinking wildly, he felt that the sky suddenly darkened, and when he looked at it, he saw that the sky was covered with dark clouds, and it seemed that it was about to rain.
When she saw this scene, she immediately looked at the roof of her house worriedly, the big hole in the roof was extremely dazzling, if it was really raining, wouldn't it be a heavy rain outside, and a light rain in the house?
Looking at the roof of his house, Jiang Liang thought about what to do, and saw Li Cuilan coming back with a hoe.
"Quick, hurry up and get inside, it's going to rain!"
As soon as her voice fell, there was a sudden sound of terrible thunder, followed by a heavy rain that slanted down, and even accompanied by a strong wind, blowing the things outside the house with a loud noise.
Jiang Liang thought that they were in the coastal area, and he didn't know if it was a typhoon.
The dilapidated wooden door also creaked in the wind, and the sound was harsh and unpleasant.
"Oh no, I forgot to put all the firewood in the house!"
Li Cuilan said that she was about to rush out in the rain, but she was stopped by Jiang Liang.
"Mother, you stay in the house, it's stormy outside, what are you doing when you rush out at this time."
"But, firewood ......"
"Don't go!"
Li Cuilan wanted to say something, but when she saw Jiang Li's face sank, she didn't dare to continue.
Seeing this, Jiang Liang couldn't help but sigh secretly in her heart, she really didn't know what to do with such a weak mother.
At this time, she felt a chill on the top of her head, and large raindrops dropped on her head.
Jiang Liang looked up and saw that it was leaking rain, and the holes in the roof were particularly active under this kind of rainstorm, and the rain continued to leak into the house from these places.
Outside the house, the storm was raging, and the family in the house huddled together, looking at the crumbling house, feeling that the wind could tear off their roof at any time, and then there would be no place for them.
There was rain leaking everywhere in the house, and I couldn't even find a place to shelter from the rain. The gate was blown by the wind and made a strange "bang" sound, and such a storm made the family feel heavy.
"Alright, don't be stupid, close the doors and windows, and find something to catch the rain. Otherwise, there will be no place to sleep at night. ”
Jiang Liang commanded, and several people hurriedly began to look for something to catch the rainwater, and they were immediately busy.
This house is too dilapidated to live in anymore!
Jiang Liang thought worriedly, and suddenly heard a clear sound in her ears, and she suddenly had a bad premonition.
Sure enough, the familiar mechanical voice sounded so abruptly.
"Congratulations to the host for triggering the side quest."
Very good!
