Chapter 9 Lighting the Lamp and Counting the Money

Su Zhong and Su Shan, who returned home from private school, consciously picked mulberry leaves, washed mulberry leaves to dry, and waited for their mothers to return home.

"Mother, grandma, sister." Su Shan saw his sister, took his sister off the donkey, and circled around his sister, "Sister, sister." ”

"The melon my sister gave me today is very delicious. The melon flesh is soft and glutinous, smeared with some salt, and it is delicious. The second brother is full of energy today, and he is not hungry at all. The poetry book that Mr. memorized came casually. ”

Su Chong saw that Su Shan was surrounding San'er, he only shook his head and smiled, and went to help his mother put away the farm tools. Pour water and give it to your mother and grandmother to drink.

"Second child, come here." Su Li beckoned, "Is it really so delicious?" ”

"It's real, it's delicious. It is not light, and it is okay to eat as a meal. No more drinking water. Su Shan patted his stomach and said that he was still full.

I only know that the gourd can be eaten, but I don't know that this gourd can be eaten as a meal, or there is a way for San'er! Su Li looked at Su Lingyu and smiled.

Su Lingyu, who was staring at, had goosebumps. As soon as he turned around, he saw Su Zhong holding the flowers, tiptoeing closer.

"Sister, we picked flowers for you and came to put them on for you." Su Shan's face was full of laughter.

Su Lingyu hugged his little head and protected the two little ones, as if he was facing a big enemy. Black and white eyes, glaring at the two of them, not allowing them to be presumptuous.

The little short leg can win two radish heads!

I saw the two of them, one hugged her, and the other sprinkled her with flower petals.

The girl's family likes the petal rain, but she has passed the age of seeking romance and is indifferent to the sprinkling of the petal rain.

Su Chong saw that his sister didn't like it, "I know where the bayberry is ripe, I'll take you to pick it." Su Zhong hugged her and walked out.

"Wait for me, I'll pick it for my sister too." Su Shan chased out.

Su Li and Su Zhang looked at them happily.

Wild bayberry is not sweet, not to mention the half-green and half-black bayberry, her small teeth are about to be soured. Big and small turnip heads can't be believed, absolutely never believed.

At the time of the lamp, a pot of porridge, six taro, and a large plate of vegetables were placed on the table.

The hot greens that were smoking gradually became cooler, and Su Chengqi was not seen returning home. Su Zhang's frequently stretched his neck to look outside the house, and sent Su Shan out to look for him, but when no one returned, he sent Su Chong out.

There were no more pedestrians outside the door, night insects and cicadas sang in unison, and three figures appeared on the other side of the alleyway.

Su Zhang turned back, lit a torch, lifted the hem of his skirt, hurried to greet him, and asked anxiously from afar: "Where did you go?" You ......"

Su Chengqi had a cold face and pulled Su Zhang's family home.

Seeing that the eldest child was carrying a big burden, and the second child was supporting him in the back, the two of them faltered, as if they were carrying more than 20 catties of grain. Su Zhang's earned his husband and went to help his sons.

The rough hand touched the white cloth bag, the surface of the cloth bag was not like grain, and the slight collision sound made Su Zhang's mind change instantly.

The words of anxiety and worry, the words of reproach, were all drowned in the stomach, and he snatched the cloth bag in silence and carried it on his shoulder. The cloth bag bent her waist, and she didn't cry out for weight or bitterness.

Su Zhang asked her mother-in-law to come into the house and let the children eat first.

Su Lingyu heard the sound of the gate falling, and then heard the sound of copper coins. She looked at the cheap daddy, and in the thin moonlight, the cheap daddy's face was not good-looking.

She swept her eyes over the three men of the Su family, all drank porridge and water, and ate on taro. But the expressions are different.

The second radish head is simple in thought, and it is the joy of filling the stomach; The big radish brows stretched, and the problem in his heart was solved. He should have known what was in the bag.

Cheap dad is in the heaviest mood, with thousands of knots in his heart, and he is afraid that he will be emotionally hurt.

Su Chengqi stuffed the peeled taro with San'er, swallowed his saliva, and said with difficulty: "It's good to sleep after eating." ”

Su Lingyu held the taro and took a small bite of food, ignoring the sadness in the voice.

If everyone in this house is hungry, she will not starve. First, she had a small appetite, and second, they were reluctant to let her starve. It was enough for her to eat a big taro.

In the middle of the moon, the shadows of the trees are mottled, and the moonlight casts a bright light on the small courtyard.

Su Lingyu dragged the small fan, climbed out of the threshold, and turned his head to look next door, they were still counting the copper plates one by one.

Su Chengqi was angry in his heart, intending to use chopping wood to vent his anger, his back was covered with fine beads of sweat, and the beads of sweat slipped down and soaked the trousers under his waist.

She put the fan on the table first, climbed on the stool, and sat down. Pick up the black teapot and pour water into the rough tile bowl, and a spiritual spring rotates several times along the wall of the tile bowl with the water column.

Su Chengqi put the axe, pulled the sweat towel with his hand, sat down with sweat, picked up the tile bowl with his big hand, drank it with a grunt, and finally turned the bowl upside down, refusing Su Lingyu to lick the water. "Don't laugh at me."

It's easy to borrow money and it's hard to get it, and that's been the case throughout the ages.

He is usually righteous to people, who is in trouble, willing to help, if he has three cents on hand, he is willing to lend two cents.

It doesn't matter if that person is really in trouble or not, whether he needs money to spend on or not.

For many years, the amount of money lent out is unknown. Now, his family is in difficulty, and he goes to collect debts, and eight out of ten are hiding.

Ten miles and eight towns, he went to ask for money from all those who borrowed him. The mouth is dry, and no one is still there. Even coaxing, deception, coercion and inducement can get this money.

The proud brotherhood is just a joke in the end!

Su Chengqi felt that he was useless, he didn't know people clearly, he suffered his family for his brothers, and his wife and children for outsiders. He told himself that he would never be like this again.

Cheap dad isn't stupid!

Now that she has refueled him, she will go back to sleep. Small body, can't stay up all night! Su Lingyu yawned.

Su Lingyu climbed off the stool, tore off the small fan, put his hands behind his back, and walked into the house with his little short legs.

I thought it was cheap, and Daddy brought back a lot of money. The two women in the family counted and found that almost all of them were copper plates. More than 2,000 copper plates, no more than two taels of silver.

There are not many pieces of loose silver, and they add up to less than a tael of silver.

will be enough for three taels, not as good as the tip of foreign debt, Su Lingyu is not worth the red-eyed Su Zhang and Su Li. After a night of hard work, that is, these three taels, when is it a head to pay off the debt?

She once again set her eyes on the little donkey, the life of the family and a little donkey, if she chooses, the family must be more important than the donkey. She would not hesitate to sell the donkey.

Even because the donkey is humane, it is sold at a higher price.

Su Lingyu looked at Su Li and sighed, being too merciful would only make him suffer!

Then she thought about it again, if it weren't for them being too humane, she Su Lingyu would have entered the third round of reincarnation now.

Live because of them, and make more changes for them!

Su Lingyu went to the bucket to hang around, pretending to play with water, and poured the spiritual spring into clean water to improve the family's physique.

"Brother Wang is still at home, you go to Wang's house and send everything in the bag over." Su Zhang's admonished Xianggong.

After paying off three taels of silver, there are still twenty taels of debts left, and it won't take three or five years to pay them all off. With hope, life will be much better.

The mountain that pressed on his heart was lighter, and Su Zhang's rarely smiled.
