Chapter 155: Hiding a cornucopia

When Chi Yue returned from the workshop, he walked to the stable in the backyard.

In her heart, she was just taking care of the horse for Gu Han, so that she would care for and pay more attention to it than her own pet, lest there be anything wrong with it.

I didn't see the white horse in the stable, Chi Yue was surprised, and hurriedly returned to the front yard and asked Zhou, who was busy in the stove, "Mother, where is the white horse I brought back yesterday?" ”

Only then did Zhou remember this stubble, so he told Qiao Shi to borrow a carriage during the day, and when she saw that there was no carriage, she tied the horse to a flatbed cart and lent it to her to treat Xiuxiu.

Chi Yue was stunned for a while when she heard that Xiuxiu was so angry that Chi Yuan was bleeding profusely that her life was in danger. She never expected that Chi Yuan's incident would hit Xiuxiu so hard, and the two of them would quarrel to the point of dying or living, which was contrary to her original intention of only wanting to punish Chi Yuan.

"I don't know if they're back now, why don't you go and take a look?" Zhou proposed, and sighed again, "After all, if we hadn't sent Chi Yuan to prison for so long, making the family worried and the emperor of the people's hearts, I'm afraid we wouldn't have been able to provoke this disaster." It's not as good as ......."

The next words, Zhou Shi did not speak. Chi Yue guessed it, and sneered: "Mother, you want me to go and make amends for them, don't you?" ”

Zhou smiled embarrassedly, she also knew that with Chi Yue's temperament, even if she forced her with a sharp knife across her neck, she would never bow her head to make amends to the person who bullied her.

"It's okay not to make amends, after all, they are at fault first, and they need to bear most of the responsibility for this matter." Zhou pondered the wording and said cautiously, "It's just that while you're looking for a horse, it's better for you to go and see your sister-in-law." After all, we are a family, and if we break bones and tendons, we can't always stop interacting, right? At this critical time, it is necessary to visit and visit from time to time, and show concern. Guarantee that the two families will turn these slippery wars into jade silks, and no one will hold a grudge against anyone? ”

Chi Yue stared and pondered for a while.

Although Zhou is a little cowardly, he often thinks about others everywhere, and he doesn't know if he loses himself. But at this time, what he said was the true meaning of human feelings.

Isn't she and Chi Yuan a typical example of retribution? Although Chi Yuan was at fault, she asked him for money again and again, didn't she indirectly force him to go out and do crooked and evil businesses to make money quickly, and caused him so many troubles?

Now, although she informed people and released him, the pain of more than a month in prison will make him hold a grudge for a while, even for a lifetime.

If there is a chance in the future, he will definitely come back and stumble on her again.

This kind of villain who has never known self-reflection is better not to be offended.

took the initiative to show goodwill, thinking that the two families would not get along with each other, but it also prevented them from making trouble out of hatred and looking for her trouble.

Take a step back and open the sky, maybe this time she should listen to Zhou's words.

Thinking of this, Chi Yue nodded, "Mother, I'll listen to you, do you need to bring anything else to condole?" ”

Seeing that Chi Yue not only did not resist this time, but also took the initiative to bring condolences to him, Zhou immediately smiled, "Yue'er has really grown up and become more sensible!" ”

As he spoke, Zhou filled a basket of the big steamed celery meat stuffed with him, covered it with a cloth, handed it to Chi Yue, and asked her to carry it with him.

The night was falling, the crescent crescent crept up the treetops, the cold wind swirled in the dead grass, and the silence was a flurry.

The night breeze was getting cooler, and Chi Yue couldn't help but tighten her clothes.

When she came to Qiao's door, she heard the sound of "bang bang", Chi Yue went in to take a look, but saw Qiao's stacking pork ribs on the board in the courtyard.

Since Qiao's family is back, then Chi Yuan and Xiuxiu should also come back.

"Auntie, your life is getting better and better, and you have eaten pork ribs? My mother also asked me to bring you a basket of meat buns, and you won't be able to eat them today. Chi Yue said with a smile.

In her impression, she had never seen the people in the old mansion of Boss Chi eat pork ribs. Even during the New Year's holidays, when they lived together in the old house in previous years, I saw them buying two or three catties of meat dumplings and stir-fried vegetables to eat, where would they be willing to spend twice the price to buy so many pork ribs?

But she thought about it again, Chi Yuan is now depressed and penniless, and the old family of Chi Shui has not been like a person who can save money since it was looted by Chi Yuan in the first half of the year, where did the surplus money come from to squander it like this?

But doubts are doubts, after all, this is someone's own business, what right does she have as an outsider?

Qiao Shi saw that it was Chi Yue, and he was slightly flustered.

She didn't expect Chi Yue to dare to come to their door again, and also brought them buns, with a happy face.

She rubbed her eyes, suspecting that she was dreaming.

On this day, a series of events she experienced made her feel like she was in a dream, and it felt too unreal.

Obviously, their family was unable to treat Xiuxiu, Chi Yuan just went out once, and when he came back, he paid all the medical expenses, and bought three courses of medicine at once!

That's a full six taels of silver! It's the cost of a year or two for their family!

Even if Boss Chi goes out to work, he won't be able to make so much money in two years!

Chi Yuan slapped the silver money on the table like this, which inevitably shocked everyone present, and Qiao's was the most unbelievable one.

When she went back, Chi Yuan refused to tell her where the money came from, but just asked her to go to the butcher shop to buy a few catties of pork ribs, so that she could go back to replenish Xiuxiu's body, tell her to give birth to a safe pregnancy, and strive to keep the fetus in her belly.

When she was stacking ribs, she was dazzled when she looked at so many ribs, and she felt that the hand under the stack was not her own. Even if it is in a dream, then in the end, the ribs must not be eaten.

She had heard the story of "A Dream of Huangliang", and thought that she might be in this spring and autumn dream, and woke up in a blink of an eye.

At this time, I saw Chi Yue courting her, and at the same time, I felt that I was still in a dream and didn't wake up.

She secretly pinched herself, and gasped softly, feeling a little painful.

Isn't she dreaming?

It's not a dream, so this is the real Chi Yue in front of you. Suddenly, a stomach full of bitterness naturally spat out from the corners of Qiao's drooping mouth, "You broom star, what are you doing at my house again?" Do you know that something happened to your sister-in-law, and you came to see the excitement when you came down to the well? Hmph, let me tell you, your sister-in-law and your nephew's lives have been saved, so it is not so easy to let you die, so that you are satisfied! You bring back all your buns, we have silver money to make up for Xiuxiu, and we don't need you to pretend to be a good person. Look at these ribs, but my son felt sorry for his kid, so he specially asked me to buy them to make up for Xiuxiu. ”

Chi Yue frowned secretly.

Qiao's is really a dog biting Lu Dongbin, and he doesn't know the hearts of good people.

Seeing that her flattery was ineffective, Chi Yue didn't want to bother more, so she said lightly, "Since I know that my sister-in-law is fine, my mother and I will be relieved." This is a little bit of my mother's heart for my sister-in-law, and I hope that you will accept it in my mother's face. As for the main purpose of my visit this time, I still want to bring my horse back, and since you have brought Xiuxiu home, then my horse must also come back with me, right? Where are you now? I'm going to pull it. ”

Qiao Shi was slightly flustered under Chi Yue's intently gaze.

After going to the county hospital, she has not had any accidents. When she took Xiuxiu out of the medical hall, she realized that the horse was gone, and hurriedly asked Chi Yuan what was going on.

Chi Yuan also looked around, but he didn't see the horse at all, maybe someone took advantage of their inattention and stole it?

Qiao's family was suddenly anxious, scolded, and cursed the eighteenth generation ancestor of the horse thief, but he didn't notice the strange expression of someone on the side.

Chi Yuan only said that it was just a horse, and it was not worth a few dollars, and urged Qiao's to go quickly, and Qiao's stopped scolding. But along the way, she couldn't help but worry.

If Chi Yue asks her for the horse, how will she respond?

It is said that a horse is two or three times the price of a cow, and a cow in the village costs more than one or two taels of silver, so wouldn't a horse cost three or four taels of silver?

If Chi Yue told her to lose money, where would she find so much extra money to pay her?

At this moment, when she was questioned by Chi Yue, she was so flustered, and she couldn't say anything in her mouth.

"The horse is lost, I'm afraid I won't be able to find it."

Chi Yuan walked out of his room and faced Chi Yue with a cold expression of rejection thousands of miles away.

When Chi Yue heard that the horse was lost by them, her calm heart suddenly fluctuated, and she became angry in a hurry, "What, you lost the horse?" Don't you know that the horse is very expensive, and it is not an ordinary horse, which cannot be lost? ”

Seeing Chi Yue like this, Qiao's became more and more frightened. If it was a golden horse, it was worth more than three or four taels of silver. They originally owed Chi Yue money that they couldn't pay off in their lifetime, and now they owe her so much, but even if they pay it themselves, it's not enough to pay her back.

Like a headless fly, Qiao turned his head to look at Chi Yuan, hoping that Chi Yuan would be able to handle this matter properly.

At this time, she was also very interesting, knowing that she must not offend Chi Yue again, otherwise she would be forced to be anxious, and what should she do if she doubled the money?

Chi Yuan seemed to have thought of his words a long time ago, and said disdainfully to Chi Yue: "What kind of precious horse, who are you fooling?" I think the horse is just an ordinary commodity, and it can only be sold for four or five taels in the market. Anyway, the horse was lost in the county, and I can't catch it back if I want to, so I have the right to pay you back five taels of silver, and there is no need to mention this matter from now on. ”

As he spoke, Chi Yuan took out a money bag from his arms and asked for a weighing stone to weigh out five taels of silver.

Not only Chi Yue, but even Qiao Shi stared in shock.

Chi Yuan easily took out so much money from his arms, could it be that he hid a cornucopia in his arms, and could he cash out the silver money at any time?

I wanted to ask something, but in front of Chi Yue, Qiao's inconvenience was inconvenient, so I had to hold back.

But having money, after all, made her happy, and her wrinkled eyes were instantly bent and radiant. When he looked at Chi Yue again, he didn't shrink at all, and turned into full of confidence, and his eyes were above the top.

"That is, you want to blackmail us for money? It's not that easy! My son has seen the world, how can he be deceived by you so easily? Qiao snorted coldly, firmly believing that Chi Yue had come to the door to deceive.

Chi Yue was angry, "This is a gift from King Rong, it is worth a fortune, where can I compensate for just five taels of silver?" If you don't believe me, just go to the county seat and ask King Rong! I don't blame you for taking good care of you, after all, you only care about treating your sister-in-law and don't have time to pay attention to anything else, which is understandable. But if King Rong blames him, how can you quibble? ”

Chi Yue deliberately let them know the seriousness of this matter, so she simply told the truth, hoping to force them to tell the origin of the horse.
