Mrs. Sun got the news early in the morning that she was watching the girls watering the flowers at home, and she thought that Xiao Chu was a person who loved flowers. The two agents stumbled in, ignoring nothing, and rushed to shout: "There is a fire." ”

"It's the other way around!" Mrs. Sun sneered, the sky is blue and the sun is white, there are a lot of flowers and trees in this yard, where is there a fire? Her husband Sun Shaoyi, who was married to a fifth-grade bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, also came out of the room and was displeased: "It's only morning, where did the fire come from!" ”

The two agents straightened their necks and gasped, and when they could speak, they shouted, "No, no, there's a fire on the dock." Sun Shaoyi laughed a few times: "The wharf is on fire, not because the water is convenient." Mrs. Sun gave him a few blank eyes, and said angrily: "Eat your breakfast." The young lady was angry, Sun Shaoyi quickly put away her smile, and when she turned around, she was puzzled, and Gu Zhu smiled at his wife: "Dare you do what you have done again?" ”

Mrs. Sun was right, and her heart jumped suddenly at this moment, more than three thousand taels of silver, but it was all her private money. drove Sun Shaoyi into the room, Mrs. Sun Shaoyi looked coldly at the two economies behind the bonsai, and they only felt furious in their hearts: "Young lady, this ......"

"Wait for me at the door, I'll take a look." From the moment Mrs. Sun understood, her eyebrows were full of frost, and she could freeze to death by looking at people.

Sun Shaoyi sat facing breakfast, saw his wife come in to change clothes, and wanted to say something to her, but when he saw the frost, he also silenced himself. She spends her own money and has nothing to do with others.

Thinking about the months since getting married, my wife has always been capable and shrewd, but now that she has suffered this big loss, she definitely doesn't want to talk to anyone.

Mrs. Sun was so angry that she didn't eat breakfast, and got in the car and came to the dock. Seeing that the mess has not been cleaned up, it is dark here, it is dirty there, the dock is empty, other people's boats are retreating in the water, only their own boats, nowhere to be seen.

"Holy God! Who set the fire! There was a sound of footsteps behind him, and several women rushed over and stomped their feet and shouted, and began to accuse each other: "Your family did it, right?" Look at us and you're red-eyed! ”

Mrs. Sun quietly retreated and asked the agent, "What's going on?" The broker hurriedly shirked his responsibility: "This is on the porcelain shop, the blue clothes tear people's hair is the old family, this boat is their family's more, and it is also burned, the nose is bleeding, it is the third family, the three brothers are always in trouble, the business is tied together, there are always contradictions." ”

Looking coldly at the women fighting in the battle group, Young Lady Sun walked away gloomily. On the way back, she felt sad in her heart. I can't tell if I like Xiao Chu or I am jealous of Xiao Chu, the five girls of the former Zhuang grew up in a bookmaker who has to fight to win, and she is willing to make friends with the winners. Xiao Chu won the heart of the eldest prince of Chu without much effort, and Mrs. Sun was willing to be with Mrs. Chu in order to earn money in the future and for the future officialdom.

What can I do now? The information is conclusive, and the broker through it is also reliable. It's just that this time she lost her hand, and Mrs. Sun's face turned pale, and she relied on the rouge floating on her cheeks to add color. The agent whispered comfort: "That's how business is done," he said early on when he was involved with Mrs. Sun. Natural and man-made disasters cannot be avoided by anyone.

"It's not unrelated to the two boats next door, it's because they caught fire that we burned. You see the porcelain shop, the three brothers are at odds; It's the same with silk shops, the source should be on them. The agent said, Mrs. Sun sighed: "Is there any evidence?" The agent said carefully: "I reported to the official, but I haven't found anything yet." ”

All along, Mrs. Sun is a cool person, maybe this time she lost too much money, or maybe she just came into contact, what did she find out, the agent and Mrs. Sun have only known each other for a few months, and she only met after she got married.

These two people have caused others to lose money.

The car passed the door, Mrs. Sun let it stop, went in to get the money, and the car went to Chu's house. With this money in her hand, Mrs. Sun did not hesitate, she would inevitably lose her business and lose the money, as if she was several levels lower than Mrs. Chu, and she was obviously currying favor with her; If she didn't pay it, what would she think?

When she got out of the car, Mrs. Sun Shao cleared her thoughts and went in to talk. Mrs. Chu is a girl, maybe she is shallow, she can pay for this money, and she has to pay for it.

When I came to the house, I went to worship Mrs. Chu first, and the girls said that Mrs. Chu had something, and Mrs. Sun went to Mrs. Chu's room, and her heart was inevitably sour. Come by yourself before getting married, whether it is Mrs. Chu or Mrs. Chu, they all want to know themselves.

Within the second gate, there are more flowers and trees. Mrs. Sun Shao is not envious of these. She chose thousands of choices herself, and she chose a concubine. Sun Shaoyi's family also has many brothers, he became self-reliant early, and after getting married, he split up the family in the full moon. From her birth to the present, Mrs. Sun can be regarded as living a life without looking at people's faces.

I live by myself, of course, the house is small and there are few people, so there will be less flowers.

Xiao Chu was not surprised, there was a letter yesterday saying that the day after tomorrow would be stated, and there would naturally be a reason for coming one day earlier. Mrs. Sun smiled, was very sorry, and finished speaking with great plush. At least Mrs. Chu didn't show her girlly spirit, and took the case: "Pay me back." "Young Mrs. Chu is just a little apprehensive.

This stunned flashed, and she immediately smiled: "Ah, is it a natural disaster or a man-made disaster?" Mrs. Sun Shao breathed a sigh of relief first: "The dock has been reported to the official, and then let people stare at it more, it is the one who helped us open the road, it is my third brother of my mother's family, let him help urge the yamen, if there is anything to set fire, let them lose money." ”

Xiao Chu smiled: "That's right." Seeing that she had such a good attitude, Mrs. Sun said that she didn't blame herself, and was willing to pay her some pictures to get along later, the shrewd Mrs. Sun only smiled: "Let's do this for the first time, as if you can't do business with me, don't be afraid of your annoyance, everyone knows that you have no money, this more than 3,000 taels of silver, I will compensate you some, lest you have no money in front of you." ”

Mrs. Jin also said the same, I am not afraid that you will be annoyed, everyone knows that you have no money. Now Mrs. Sun Shao also said the same. Mrs. Chu's heart sank just now, and these words made her heart feel angry, and she heard that Mrs. Sun was still chattering: "You collect some first, if there is anything to be recovered in the yamen, you will not be too late to give it to me." ”

"You take it," Xiao Chu just heard this, and inevitably became suspicious of some ordinary people towards Mrs. Sun and framed me? In the past, things should have disappeared after they became married. Seeing that she was going to lose money, Xiao Chu's suspicions also went a lot, and he hurriedly said: "You didn't do it, what do you want to lose!" If you did it, it's not too late for you to pay for it. ”

Mrs. Sun couldn't bear it anymore, and said with a smile: "Look at what you say!" "If you do it yourself, it's not too late to pay. Of course, Sun Shaoyi can't be compared with Chu Huaixian, and this is not a slap in the face. Xiao Chu grinned, she was suspicious and suspicious, so she said this, but now she was embarrassed, and she hurriedly covered up her words.

After talking for a while, Mrs. Sun said goodbye. If she knew the cause of the disaster, it was because she had teamed up with Mrs. Chu Shao, and she didn't know if she would go back and ask for money.

And the calm Mrs. Chu was sad in the room. Everybody knows they don't have any money, of course! It's not dozens of taels, it's not hundreds of taels, if you don't go out, you can save a few months at home, this is more than three thousand taels, even if you don't go out, you have to save three years without spending a penny.

The reason why I keep asking for money is because I don't feel secure. This sense of security does not only come from getting married and from the Chu family, but to be precise, from the time Lin Xiaochu crossed over to a poor family, there was a sense of crisis. If you don't have money, how can you do it!

The monthly silver is only a promise, and her husband pays a hundred taels of silver every month, but all this money is in the hands of others, and it is given according to the mood of others. Just like if he didn't get married, Xiao Chu didn't know that Chu Huaixian would be good to him; She is in the midst of all kinds of good things at this time, she is also worried about Chu Huaixian's empathy, Chu Huaixian's change of heart....... all kinds of possibilities may happen, people want to fight, of course, it is best to be self-reliant!

Mrs. Chu jumped for a while, there was nothing she could do. When Chu Huaixian came back, let him also go to the yamen to say hello, he was also a person who couldn't rub the gray star in his eyes, and he would know when he went. What Xiao Chu was afraid of was not that the eldest prince of Chu would lose his temper, but that he was afraid of laughing at people. Xiao Chu, who was tired of jumping and leaning on the pillow, pouted high, you can imagine what Childe would say, and he would laugh lightly: "It's gone?" All gone? It's not good, I really like it. I'm not surprised that you have no money, and I'm strange if you're gone. ”

How hurtful these words are!

Alas, Young Lady Chu sighed, don't let him know. couldn't stand the frivolous words, but he lost his temper with a black face: "Don't let you go out, now you can take advantage of it." "Xiao Chu can't stand it.

Winter Dye wants to get married, and there are more than 100 taels of silver on hand, which is easy to do; Xiangzhi wants to get married, and Xiao Chu can't take it out. What about packing up two pieces of your dowry for Xiangzhi? originally thought that the Wei family was poor and gave Xiangzhi some private money. Although Mrs. Chu is poor, everyone is "not afraid of her annoyance and knows that she has no money", but she married a wealthy family and married in without worrying about food and clothing. Xiangzhi is different, Xiao Chu sighed, she has always thought about it, and gave her some money to press the box, which can be regarded as grateful to her for being petty, and she has never looked down on herself.

I can't afford it now!

Distraught, he went out to the study, Chu Huaide came out happily from inside, and saw Xiao Chu busy and attentively: "Sister-in-law, eldest brother is inside." He added: "I bought you a lot of good things." ”

Gongzi Huaide has been very attentive recently, and Xiao Chu laughed and ignored it. When I came in, I saw Chu Huaixian looking at it with a jade wrench in his hand, and there were several large rulers on the next few sides, as well as a box.

Seeing Xiao Chu coming, he beckoned with a spring breeze on his face: "Come here." He showed Xiao Chu the wrench: "Look at this green, it's the best." Xiao Chu was happy with him: "I bought another one, not a lot." Chu Huaixian put the wrench on Xiao Chu's slender fingers: "For you to learn archery." ”

Xiao Chu, who had all the money, still grinned, played with the wrench and said, "I won't." "I'm actually thinking about how much this wrench is. Chu Huaixian asked Xiao Chu to look at the ruler and box next to him: "The one for you is about to let Duoshou send it in." March 3 Spring, you can use this to make clothes. ”

Xiao Chu thanked him, and hurriedly said while Chu Huaixian was happy: "Son-in-law is at home at night?" The day of the eldest girl's marriage is coming, I want to add a box to her, the dowry said it is mine, you will choose, help me pick two pieces for her. Chu Huaixian heard it and liked it, he was a younger sister of Xiangzhi, and he treated him differently from Chu Huaide, he liked Xiangzhi since he was a child. hugged Xiao Chu in his arms, kissed him and said: "You are a good sister-in-law, according to me, you don't have to choose, I plan to give her 5,000 taels of silver in the box, you and I are separated, we are all inside." ”

Xiao Chu blinked when he heard it, and when he married her, he only gave two thousand taels; Now when I come to my sister, I will give five thousand taels. Chu Huaixian pressed the tip of Xiao Chu's nose: "You can't have more money in your hand, and if you have more, you will make trouble." These words were piercing Xiao Chu's illness, which made her feel a pain in her heart, and she was busy pretending to look at what she had given herself and mixing up the words.
