Chapter 46: Losing money
Mu Jiu glanced at Mu Hongli, and then looked at Mu Yifan seriously, "If Yifan still feels uneasy, then one day you have the ability to invite your sister to eat meat, okay?" ”
"Good!"
This time, Mu Yifan answered very simply.
Mu Hongli raised his head, looked up at his sister with dark eyes, and fell into deep thought.
After Mu Yifan took the meat back, Mu Jiu and Mu Hongli started to eat.
They had never eaten meat before, it was still slightly greasy pork belly, and Mu Jiu only let Mu Hongli eat a few pieces, and then put the meat away.
After doing this, Mu Jiu cut the remaining pork belly again, fried the oil, put the oil in a jar, and put the meat in a jar.
Now the weather is getting cooler and colder, and it won't be bad if you leave it for a few days.
And if she wants to go to the county seat, it will take two days, or even days, to come and go.
These are enough for Li Xiaotao for them to eat for a few days.
After doing this, Mu Jiu took a jar and went to the next door, and came back with a broken jar.
Mu Hongli was puzzled, "This jar is rotten, what are you doing with it?" ”
Mu Jiu pretended to be mysterious, "You'll know later, go, stop practicing, sit with my sister for a while." ”
"Good!"
The siblings went into the kitchen.
"Manulife, I'm going to the county tomorrow, and when I'm not at home, you have to take care of our home, you know?"
"The county seat?" Mu Hongli tilted his head and thought for a while, "What is the county seat?" ”
"The largest of our Great Xia Dynasty is the capital, and there is a state capital down from the capital, and the state capital is the county seat, and the county seat is down, just like a town like Wanbao Town."
Mu Hongli understood, "It's a bigger place than the town." ”
When he said this, Mu Hongli's eyes were full of yearning.
Mu Jiu thought, next time, next time, I must bring Mu Hongli with him, so that he can have a good understanding of the outside world.
Not this time, Li Xiaotao is at home alone, the Mu family knows, it's strange if they don't come to the door to make trouble, Li Xiaotao can't deal with them alone.
"Manulife, I'm not at home, you must take care of your home, and grandma is not allowed to bully your mother, do you know?"
"Sister, don't worry, I will protect my mother."
"When I have a chance next time, I'll take you to play."
"Really?" In the end, it is a child, when it comes to playing, his eyes are shining.
"When did my sister lie to you?"
"That's right, my sister is the best sister!" Mu Hongli was full of pride, "Tell me the story outside." ”
Mu Hongli looked at his sister with admiration, completely ignoring that Mu Jiu was also a girl who had never walked out.
But the original owner never went out, Mu Jiu had traveled to many places, so she simply pulled Cao Dunzi to sit down and tell her about the customs and customs of some of the places she had visited.
Speaking of the wonderful, Mu Hongli was stunned when he heard it, as if he was in that world.
The siblings were talking and laughing and chatting about their plans for the future, however, at this moment, there was a rush and chaos of footsteps outside the kitchen door.
Mu Jiu had a bad premonition, a bit like Mrs. Mu's footsteps!
Sure enough, before she could get out of the kitchen, Mrs. Mu broke in with Zhang Cuihua and Mu Liufu.
The air was still filled with the smell of oil smoke, Mrs. Mu swallowed her saliva, pointed at Mu Jiu and scolded, "Dead girl, hurry up and take out the meat to honor me!" ”
Mu Jiu sat on the grass and didn't move, raised his head and glanced at Mrs. Mu in disgust, but didn't speak.
"Did the dead girl hear it, take out the meat and honor grandma!" Mrs. Mu yelled angrily.
Today she had lunch, and listened to Mu Liufu tell her about the Lin landlord's family in the courtyard with her legs crossed, and she heard Aunt Lin Wu who passed by her door talking with another aunt, saying that she heard Lin Zhou's shouting, and Mu Jiu bought a lot of meat.
It's worth it!
She doesn't even have any meat to eat!
The more Mrs. Mu thought about it, the more she couldn't sit still, so she called Zhang Cuihua and Mu Liufu and rushed to Mu Jiu's house.
Who knew that it really smelled meat!
Mu Jiu is her granddaughter, she has not yet left the cabinet, and all her things should be hers!
Mrs. Mu roared as she thought about it, her greedy eyes searching back and forth in the kitchen.
Mu Jiu sat still, did not reply to Mrs. Mu's words, and secretly scolded Lin Zhou's big mouth.
Mu Jiu didn't speak, but Mu Hongli stood in front of her, pretending to be innocent and asked, "Grandma, what did you say?" What meat? ”
"Aunt Lin said that you bought a lot of meat, I smelled it, hurry up and take it out to honor grandma." Mrs. Mu has the biggest posture of Lao Tzu.
Mu Hongli's mouth was deflated, and he deliberately said it loudly, so that the neighbors around him could hear it, "Don't you know that others don't know grandma?" Aunt Lin has a relationship with her aunt, do you believe what she said? ”
"But I really smell the smoke in your kitchen!"
Mu Hongli didn't have stage fright at all, "That's from the house next door." ”
"I don't believe it!" Mrs. Mu's eyes fell on the broken jar that fell in the corner, and there was a little mimeograph on it, "What is this?" ”
Mu Hongli was immature in the end, and when he saw that Mrs. Mu saw something in the jar at a glance, she looked a little panicked.
It was Mu Jiu, whose face was not red and his heart was not beating, and said coldly, "That's the jar that Aunt Jiu lent us." ”
"What kind of goods is Aunt Jiu, will lend you a jar?" Mrs. Mu's tone was full of contempt.
Think it's great to be a talented mother? Mu Jiu sneered, "That's none of grandma's business, if grandma is interested, you can take it away."
However, I reminded my grandmother that if Aunt Jiu came back and couldn't find the jar, she had to go to Lizheng's house to complain, and then I couldn't lie, I could only tell the truth that Grandma took it. ”
Mrs. Mu glanced back at Zhang Cuihua hesitantly, hoping that she would give her an idea.
Zhang Cuihua pouted, "Mother, if you believe her words, you won't be able to eat meat!" ”
"Hehe......" Mu Jiu deliberately sneered.
I don't know if she was too calm, or the breath around her body was too cold, Mrs. Mu actually paused her steps.
What if what Mu Jiu said is true? Aunt Mu Jiu sued Li Zheng, wouldn't Mu Rongguang lose face? Mu Rongguang was embarrassed, and she was the one who was angry in the end!
"Grandma, don't believe her, if you want to eat meat, go get it yourself." Mu Liufu sniffed hard, she really wanted to eat fragrant pork!
In order to eat meat, she vigorously instigated Mrs. Mu, "Grandma, think about it, even if it is Aunt Jiu's jar, she is really making trouble, we can say that Mu Jiu took it to honor your old man, and then return the jar to her." ”
Mu Jiu's eyes were like knives, and he stabbed at Mu Liufu sharply.
It was surprising that she, who had always had no brains, could say this.
The power of eating meat is great!
Mrs. Mu took a few more steps forward, and the sound of swallowing saliva was so loud that everyone in the kitchen could hear it.
Mu Hongli glared at Mu Liufu angrily, feeling sorry for his sister, did the pork that he finally bought back with money be taken away like this!
Mu Jiu was like no one, the old god was sitting on the grass dunzi, and he didn't mean to stop Mrs. Mu at all, let alone worry.
As Mrs. Mu's footsteps advanced towards the jar, Zhang Cuihua's eyes were about to bulge, and she stared at the jar and swallowed her saliva.
There must be meat in the kitchen with such a big smell of oil smoke!
Mrs. Mu hurriedly opened the lid of the jar, but found that when she touched the lid, the jar automatically cracked and became in half.
"Oh my God! Grandma, you smashed Aunt Jiu's jar! Mu Jiu jumped up and shouted, the sound so loud that it almost lifted the thatched roof.
Mrs. Mu panicked and hurriedly retreated, "No! I didn't break it, I just touched it and it was rotten, no, no, no! It's rotten by nature. ”
Mrs. Mu took a few steps back, but she didn't know what she tripped over, and fell backwards on all fours.
"Grandma!" Mu Jiu exclaimed, and hurriedly stepped forward to help Mrs. Mu, "You don't have to be so flustered, it's okay if you break it, anyway, grandpa has money, just let him take the money out to accompany Aunt Jiu!" ”
"What nonsense are you talking about, the jar wasn't broken by me, it was rotten by itself!" Mrs. Mu struggled to get up.
The floor of the kitchen was just leveled out for a little mud, and after the fire, there was ash everywhere, and Mrs. Mu's back was printed with a layer of gray color.
Mu Liufu didn't expect things to develop like this, he seemed a little flustered, and was the first to run out of the kitchen, in case Aunt Jiu pushed things on her head.
It was Zhang Cuihua who helped Mrs. Mu with an embarrassed face and helped her up, "Mother, we ......"
To go or to stay?
She wants to eat meat!
His gaze swept over another jar in the corner, as if he saw meat.
Mu Jiu sneered and let go of Mrs. Mu, "Grandma, do you want to go and see that jar again?" Maybe there is meat, but if the jar is rotten again, Aunt Jiu will come back and ask you to accompany the money for the two jars, and Grandpa Lizheng will not show favoritism. ”
At this time, Mu Yifan walked over from there with Mu Luo, who had bad eyes.
Mu Roche's eyes were not good, but his voice was good, and he asked loudly as he walked, "What happened!" ”
"Thirty-four grandma, my grandma accidentally broke the jar you lent me, you see......"
Mu Luo's clan broke out violently, crying and grabbing the ground, "Mu Tongsheng's family, what do you say!" ”
Mrs. Mu panicked, "It's not me, I just touched it and rotted myself!" ”
"That's right, you hit it!"
Some people eating melons have gathered around, looking at the two old ladies with relish.
Mrs. Mu didn't admit it even if she was killed, "It's not me!" It's not me! Don't try to rely on me! ”
"You admit it yourself, it's rotten when you touch it, it's not you!" Mu Roche's voice was equally loud.
"Your jar is rotten!"
Two old ladies over half a hundred years old fought for each other, especially Mrs. Mu, whose eyes were red, like a belligerent rooster.
Zhang Cuihua stood beside her, intentionally or unintentionally helping.
But there was only Mu Yifan by Mu Luo's side, short and thin, and he couldn't say a word, and in terms of momentum, Mu Luo's was much weaker.
In ignorance, human beings have the psychology of sympathy for the weak.
In addition, Mrs. Mu's reputation in the village has never been good, and the people who eat melons unanimously stand on the side of sympathy for Mu Luo.
After a few more arguments, Mu Luo began to wipe his tears, "You are a child, is it interesting to bully our orphans and widows!" ”
