Xia Li had already exchanged the entire silver ticket with the shopkeeper He, took out a silver ticket of fifty taels and thirty-four taels of cash and handed it to the tooth man, and Xia Shan went to the county government office with the tooth man and the person who sold the land to apply for the deed.

She also gave Xia Shan two taels of silver, one tael of silver for the deed, and one tael of silver for him to invite the tooth man and the shopkeeper He to drink at noon.

Xia Li and the others continued to go east in an ox cart, and arrived at Xiaowa Village in more than two quarters of an hour.

Turning a yard and seeing his own small yard, several children were playing in front of the door, and when he was lonely and sad, he squatted at the door and looked into the distance.

When he saw Xia leaving, he jumped up and rushed over. Then came Xia Ju, and then came Erhu.

Dangdang jumped on the ox cart, hugged Xia Li and licked and cried, looking like an abandoned little person. Xia Li hugged it and coaxed, "Don't cry, isn't my sister back, okay, okay, I brought you toys, and I will weave beautiful chains for you......" This dangdang is becoming more and more like a delicate girl.

Before he finished speaking, the long-legged Erhu overtook Xia Ju and ran to the side of the ox cart and said, "Sister Li, you are not at home, you should not eat well, squatting at the door from morning to night waiting for you, and crying......"

Zhu Er and the others were taken aback by Dangdang at first, and then when they saw it like this, they were all so surprised that they couldn't do it, and they looked at it in a daze.

Xia Ju also rushed over, climbed into the ox cart and buried his head in Xia Li's arms, and said with a pout, "My mother said that my sister should have come back yesterday, why did she come back today, we are so worried, we can't sleep and eat......"

Xia Li smiled again, "Sister has something to delay, let's go home and talk." ”

When the ox cart arrived at the door, Xia also greeted him. When she saw Zhu Er and a few people, she knew that it was Xia Li's next person who bought it, so she didn't say much, and asked them to move the things in the car home.

Xia Li paid for the car, gave Tie Dan'er and a few other children a few pieces of candy, and sent them away.

Closing the courtyard door and entering the house, Xia Li was surrounded, she hugged Dangdang with one hand, Xia Ju with the other, and the two tigers leaned on her side.

She made love with the two of them and a dog, and took out snacks for them to eat, and whispered that the python was sold, Xia Shan became an official, and his family bought twelve acres of good paddy fields, and Xia and Xia Ju were overjoyed.

I wish the two people kowtowed to the masters again. The Xia family rewarded them with fifty yuan each, and did not let them call them Mrs. Young Master, this is the countryside, and their own family is not a landlord or anything, so they are a joke. Let them call themselves sister-in-law Xia (aunt), call Xia Li's eldest girl, and call Xia Juju'er.

Erhu said anxiously, "What do you call me?" ”

Xia Li smiled, "Call you Brother Tiger." ”

Zhu Er's family temporarily lived in the south house of the east wing, and when the land on the east side was bought and encircled, the hall house and the south house door of the east wing were opened over there and given to their family of three to live in. After all, Zhu Er is young, and Xia is a widow, so it is inconvenient to live in the same courtyard.

When Zhu Er and his wife cleaned up the south house, it was also noon. Xia's cooked a pot of noodles, the master's family and Erhu ate it in the upper room, and the next family's family ate it in the east chamber.

After the meal, Zhu Er's family collected the dishes and washed the dishes, cleaned up the kitchen, and Zhu Er led Zhu Cai to clean up the firewood room, the family was very diligent, and there was work in their eyes. Xia found a few pieces of coarse cloth and asked the Zhu two family to make clothes for their family of three.

As soon as Xia Li packed up the gifts for people, Xia Laohan and Mrs. Xia came.

Xia Li frowned, and let Xia Ju and Dangdang into her bedroom, she didn't want Xia Ju to be wronged.

She insisted, and the old lady was sure to make a fuss. Originally, I wanted the Xia clan to pull the battlefield to Lao Xia's house, and when Xia Shan, who became an official, came back, the scene would be more harmonious and much easier.

But they came first......

Then try the human heart.

Seeing that Xia Li actually bought someone, Mrs. Xia's mouth was open enough to stuff an egg. Shocked and yelled, "Leave the girl, how much silver did you sell for that big snake, and you also bought a person?" Ouch, it's just a hillbilly, and I bought people, and I laughed off my big teeth. ”

The old lady's words were so angry that Xia gritted his teeth.

Xia Li smiled, "I sold it for two hundred taels of silver." Then he opened the large package on the table and said, "This is a gift for you and your uncle." ”

She took out a jade pipe, a tiger head cane, and a pack of tobacco and handed it to Xia Laohan, and said with a smile, "This is specially bought for my grandfather, thank you grandfather for giving arrows." He took out another brocade box and opened it, saying, "These silver earrings were bought for my grandmother." ”

Xia Laohan took the pipe and crutches with a smile and boasted, "Beautiful, magnificent, even Zhou Lizheng's pipe is not so good." He hurriedly pulled out a little cigarette and stuffed it into his pipe, lit it and took a few puffs, and was so satisfied.

Mrs. Xia didn't take the earrings, and said in surprise, "You bought so many things, how much silver is left?" ”

Xia Li put the silver earrings on the table, and said slowly with his fingers, "It cost a total of fifty-two taels of silver to buy gifts, eighty-four taels of silver to buy paddy fields, twenty-two taels of silver to buy people, and three taels of silver to apply for deeds and others." Of the two hundred taels of silver, there were thirty-nine taels left. ”

Mrs. Xia almost didn't come up in one breath, and shouted, "So much silver, you are so in trouble?" Then he pointed to the door and shouted, "Just those few who eat idle food, are they worth twenty-two taels of silver?" ”

Xia Li smiled and said, "How can this be called a disaster, I have earned so much money, I must buy more belongings for my family." With the field, my mother will not have to embroider and embroider until her eyes are almost blind, and my younger brother will have money to study in the future. My mother's health is not good, my younger brother is small, I am a girl's family, buy a few people, not only can I help with the work, but also watch the family to prevent thieves, how to call eating idle food...... My family is having a better time, and I haven't forgotten my elders and relatives, so I bought these gifts......"

Mrs. Xia said angrily, "That wild boy is your younger brother!" He took Erhu's neck and pushed it to Xia Li, and roared, "He and Sanbao are your sisters-in-law's younger brothers." Hurry up, sell a few acres of land, plus the remaining thirty-nine taels of silver, and make up one hundred taels and give it to me. ”

Xia Li looked at the old lady like a monster and asked, "Why?" ”

Mrs. Xia said confidently, "Your mother is my daughter, you should honor me." ”

Xia Li's face turned cold, and he asked, "My uncles have earned money, and my grandmother will also give half of the money to your mother's family?" ”

Mrs. Xia snorted coldly, "I have a son and grandson to pass it on, and the money your uncle earns is surnamed Xia." Your mother is a desperate household, and you can't take the silver to cheap and irrelevant outsiders. ”

Xia Li snorted coldly, "How can my grandmother's memory be so bad, my mother has a son, he is my younger brother Xia Ju, and he kowtowed to you." ”

This yard and well have been cheap outsiders for a long time, and now seeing so much silver flowing to an outsider who is not a blood relative, she is even more sad and angry, and she is in tears.
