Chapter 185: Floods

The bead curtains hanging on the carved arches inside and outside, milky white beads, look at it is gratifying, Yang pulled a string to his neck twice, and turned around to see that Xiao Xia had been staring at him, pouting.

Xiao Xia estimated that if she hadn't watched it, maybe Yang would have to drag away two strings of bead curtains, and she wouldn't be able to go home as a necklace.

Xiao Xia didn't guess wrong, Yang really thought like this, even when Xiao Xia saw her, she didn't dispel this idea, and she planned to ask Xiao Wang for it when she left!

Xiao Xia invited Yang to sit down, poured her a cup of tea, and sent it to her.

Yang took a sip, the fragrance was sweet and delicious. Goo Dong drank it all in one gulp, and got himself another glass.

"What good things are you going to give me?"

"Don't worry, second aunt, I have a question for you, if what you say is true, I will give this to you, how about it?"

Watching Xiao Xia take out a glittering gold ingot from the bad, Yang's eyes were straight at that time, this was the first time she had seen gold, and it was such a big gold ingot, the scattered wealth boy in the painting that year was holding it, it was so big! Yang estimated it.

Yang picked up the gold that Xiao Xia put on the table, bit it a few times with his teeth, and felt that it was real, and he didn't even look at the smiling old face, and he immediately wanted to put it in his arms.

Xiao Xia Ma stopped it neatly, and the Yang family had no chance to resist, and the gold returned to Xiao Xia's hands.

"Second aunt, don't worry, the gold can't run, you answer my question, this gold is yours."

Yang's eyes never left the gold, and he was afraid that the gold would be gone in the blink of an eye, so he nodded without thinking about it.

"Is my mother my grandmother's own?"

Yang was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and looked at Xiao Xia in disbelief, his eyes dodging.

"Of course it's your grandmother's own."

Xiao Xia shook the gold in front of Yang's eyes.

"It seems that the second aunt doesn't want this gold anymore."

"What I said is true, who else could your mother have if you didn't give birth to that grandma...... Raw. ”

Yang saw that Xiao Xia took the gold back into his arms, and he was a little anxious, so a gold ingot is less than ten taels! That's a hundred taels of silver! With that ingot of gold, how many of his sons are still worried about marrying a daughter-in-law?

"Your mother is not your grandmother's own, you can give me the gold this time!"

Xiao Xia smiled, and asked her again: "How do you prove that my mother is not born to my grandmother?" ”

Yang looked at Xiao Xia with a look of surprise, and after thinking for a long time, he still felt that gold was the most important, so he replied.

"I listened to what your second uncle said, and your second uncle once drank too much and told me. said that your grandmother originally planned to marry your mother to your second uncle, but the Wang family was poor at that time, and your eldest and second uncle had not yet married a daughter-in-law. Your mother somehow fell in love with your father, and promised to give a dowry of ten taels of silver. Your grandmother thinks that with ten taels of silver, both sons will be able to marry a daughter-in-law, so she agrees to marry your mother to your father. ”

"Then where did my mother come from?"

"I don't know. You can give me the gold this time! ”

Xiao Xia took out ten taels of silver and threw it directly to the Yang family.

"What you said is what I know, what I want to know is where my grandmother got it. You go back and inquire, and find out that come to me, and the ten taels of gold are yours. ”

Yang was dumbfounded, she was insatiable, she obviously promised to give her gold, how could she be satisfied with giving her silver now.

"No, I want gold, or ......"

"How else? Grandma doesn't want my mother to know about it! Otherwise, it would have been known to the whole world a long time ago, since she was hiding it to death, there must be a reason for her. If you can find anything about my mother's identity, how about I give you another ingot of gold? ”

"And?"

Xiao Xia took out a gold ingot from his arms again, and two Huang Tengteng gold ingots were placed side by side on the table.

"We will have a cooperative relationship in the future, as long as you make me satisfied, gold and silver are indispensable, it depends on how the second aunt chooses."

For the sake of Jinzi's face, it was impossible for the Yang family to refuse, so he agreed in one bite.

"Then the second aunt should go back quickly! I'm waiting for your news. ”

Yang glanced at the gold twice more and swallowed his saliva. "Why don't you wait until I'm done drinking!"

Xiao Xia rolled her eyes in her heart.

"With these two ingots of gold, does the second aunt have anything to eat?"

Xiao Xia finally drove Yang away, and not long after Yang walked on his front foot, the light rain that was sparse turned into a pouring rain, and this heavy rain was several days at once.

Three days later.

Xiao Xia practiced calligraphy in the house, the wind and rain outside were swaggering, and the raindrops slapped on the glass window, crackling.

Feihua stood outside the door with an umbrella and called the door, and only dared to enter the house when she got the order, and when she entered Xiao Xia's house, the lower half of her body was soaked.

"Braving such a heavy rain, are you still here?"

"It was the girl's aunt who came to the lord and borrowed the money, saying that the eldest master in the prison was sick."

Xiao Xia listened and looked at the sky outside, it was still gray, and the heavy rain had no intention of stopping at all.

"What did my dad say?"

"I gave ten taels of silver first, but the girl's aunt said that it was not enough, so I gave twenty taels of silver."

"I know, you go back and change your clothes, it's raining heavily, and you don't have to run back and forth if there's nothing important."

"Got it!" Feihua opened the door and ran away against the rain.

This heavy rain lasted for half a month, and many low-lying fields were flooded. Shen Zhong took Uncle Qing and Jixiang to the field several times to release water in the heavy rain. Paddy fields are already prone to water accumulation, and in the end, there is no place to put water if you want to.

It was dark that day, and Shen Zhong finally came back with someone, dressed in a robe, but his body was also soaked from the inside out.

Xiao Wang waited in the living room with the girls, and was relieved to see that the people had finally returned.

"If it is another half a month, the land will be considered wasted." Shen Zhong sighed, God is torturous, when it doesn't rain, there is not a drop of rain for two consecutive months, and when it rains, it rains heavily for half a month, and it doesn't let people live.

"Hey! Let's hope it's sunny tomorrow! ”

Xiao Wang didn't expect that what she said was really heard by God.

The next day, the sun that had not been seen for a long time finally came out, and the family was happy.

The days fly by, and in a blink of an eye, it is the hottest August, and when the weather is hot, people are easily irritable, and Xiaoxia feels uncomfortable even if he hides in the house.

The grain store in Gushan Town has been closed for a long time, and on the first day of the new year, there was a market in the town, and Shen Zhong took Uncle Qing to Gushan Town, planning to see the grain store and plan to open it again.

When the two returned, they brought back bad news.

"God blesses our backing towns, it rains every day in most parts of Zezhou, and many fields are flooded."

"Isn't that another famine?" Xiao Wang's frightened mouth covered his heart, once there was a famine, it would kill a lot of people.

"I don't know yet, but don't think about opening the grain store, let's save the grain! Now the price of food in the town has begun to rise. ”
