Chapter 34: Guess Too?
"yes......"
The rest of the people looked at each other for a while, and then looked at the person in unison, "Didn't you just say to Ah Sheng that it's okay to pay back some of it?" ”
The woman choked for a moment, and after slashing her kick in frustration, she defended herself: "I thought that even if their family suddenly had money, they would never be able to pay us all off, so I said that!" ”
"Alas! In any case, since we have already told Ah Sheng, it is not good to regret it immediately, and let's see how much they will pay us back today. ”
"That's all it can be."
“……”
The women shook their heads and went home.
Behind them, Qian Beibei, who had already come out of the room, was lying at the courtyard door to confirm that they were far away, and as soon as he turned around, he saw Yue Er's entangled pestle next to Yue Sheng, "Big brother, our family owes so much silver, even if each family only pays back a part, after paying it back, there is not much left of the forty taels!" ”
Yuesheng twisted her eyebrows and said, "I have measure, you don't need to worry." ”
"But big brother ......"
"Okay Duoduo, your eldest brother said that he is measured, don't worry about it, go and see why your sister hasn't come back from the mountains yet."
After Qian Beibei opened his mouth to interrupt Yue Er's words, he looked up at the sky, and muttered deliberately, "It's all this hour, yesterday my father went up the mountain alone to chop firewood, but he has already returned, and there are more Lian'er and sister-in-law today, how can it ......be even later?"
Before she could finish muttering, Yue Er had already run out of the house.
The mountains behind their Yuejia Village are not high, they are all land, and each piece of land has an owner, and they can't go to other people's homes to cut firewood around the land, so the uncle has to pass through the two villages next door every day, and walk for most of the hour to go to Ninghu Mountain to cut firewood.
Naning Tiger Mountain is close to the deep mountains where there are many poisonous snakes and beasts, and almost no one dares to enter except for the hunting areas around where they live by hunting.
Even then, there were always people in Ninghu Mountain who were attacked by poisonous snakes and beasts that ran out of the deep mountains.
Therefore, as soon as she heard Qian Beibei's question, she was so worried.
Fortunately, after she ran out of the house, she walked out of the village and saw the three people returning with firewood on their backs.
Relieved, she rushed over and asked the three people excitedly: "Uncle, sister-in-law, sister, guess how much silver did my sister-in-law sell Miss Zhang's broken jade pendant today?" ”
"Look you're so excited, you must have sold a lot, right? However......" Yuemian twisted her eyebrows halfway through her words, "Since the jade pendant has been broken, it can't be sold at the original price, at most it's only one or twenty taels." ”
"More than that!"
"How much did that sell?"
"Hey......
Yue Er deliberately sold Guanzi, "Uncle, do you want to guess too?" ”
Yuehong lifted the basket and shook his head, his voice a little weak, "I won't guess." ”
As soon as Yue Er heard his voice, she couldn't care about selling it, and asked nervously: "Uncle, are you uncomfortable?" ”
"No, I'm just a little tired."
"Uncle give me the basket, and I'll carry it."
“……”
Yuehong hesitated, but still gave the back basket to Yueer.
Yue Er's face immediately changed.
Although the uncle's health is not good, but in such a situation, the uncle will always refuse on the grounds that she is still too young to carry heavy things.
At this time, he gave it to her without saying anything......
Thinking of being a little flustered, she looked at Yuehong's face seriously, and asked again: "Uncle, are you really not uncomfortable?" ”
