Chapter 22, Zhao's selfishness

It's like the lava of the volcano, you can't really see anything on weekdays, but the power of its eruption is enough to destroy everything.

Old man Zhu is afraid, afraid that Zhu Erlang is such a person.

In the silence, I couldn't help but think a lot, and I thought further......

"In the future, talk less, and have so much time to take out winter clothes and quilts to dry!" Old man Zhu muttered.

Pacing towards the hall, he said in a deep voice, "Call them to eat!" ”

Lu Shi was unwilling, but what could he do if he was unwilling, so he could only respond, "I know!" ”

Looking at the steamed bun in his hand, "Then is this steamed bun to eat today, or wait for Zongbao to come back?" ”

When Old Man Zhu heard this, he suddenly turned his head and stared at Lu Shi gloomily, and Lu's scalp was numb, and he didn't dare to come out.

"Steamed buns for lunch today!" Old man Zhu made the final decision.

Lu Shi was unhappy, but he really didn't dare to refute.

In his heart, he secretly scolded the wolf heart of the two rooms and one room, the heart of the dog, the lungs, and the white-eyed wolf.

Zhu Xiao and Zhu Huaer came in, and Zhao was still crying under the eaves.

“……”

Zhu Xiao thought it was ridiculous, but he ignored it.

In the end, it was her own mother, although Zhu Huaer was annoyed, she still couldn't bear it, and wanted to step forward to comfort the Zhao family, but she hesitated to move forward thinking about Zhu Xiao's advice.

When helping Zhu Xiao dry his clothes, he was absent-minded.

Zhao was also secretly looking at the two sisters, and when he saw that both of them ignored her, he felt resentful in his heart and felt cold at the same time.

She conceived and gave birth to them in October, how could they treat her like this, it was so unfilial.

The moment he saw Zhu Erlang, Zhao stood up suddenly and looked at Zhu Erlang pitifully.

“……”

Zhu Erlang was slightly stunned.

In the past, Zhao would not cry, but would look at him sadly and sadly.

"Erlang!" Zhao shouted timidly, stepped forward and stood in front of Zhu Erlang, looking at him with red and swollen eyes.

"What's wrong?" Zhu Erlang asked.

"It's not a big deal, it's just that they don't ...... very sensible, I'm " Zhao whispered and glanced back at Zhu Xiao.

"Whew!"

Zhu Xiao sneered.

I used to think that Zhao was stupid, but now it seems that she is not stupid, she knows all about eye medicine.

Zhu Xiaomai stepped into the house.

Although Zhu Huaer didn't understand much, she also felt that Zhao was complaining, and she couldn't say it in her heart.

It's a little uncomfortable, and it's a little lost.

He glanced at Zhao Shi in a deep and entered the room.

"Erlang, look at ......," Zhao whispered.

Feeling flustered.

“……”

Zhu Erlang took a deep breath, "Go fetch water and wash your face, I'll buy you something!" ”

That's it?

Zhao was slightly surprised.

She thought that Zhu Erlang would support her and clean up Zhu Xiaoji's sisters, but she didn't want to just ask nothing.

"Erlang, ...... today"

"It's all gone!" Zhu Erlang stepped into the house first.

I took out a few small pieces of cloth and gently placed them on the table, a little stunned.

In the end, it was the material for making underwear for his daughters, he was thinking, should he take it himself, or should Zhao take it?

A few children are half years old, but girls, will it be inappropriate for him to be a father?

Zhao stomped his feet in the courtyard, and when he entered the house, he saw the fabric on the table, and was immediately overjoyed, "Erlang, is this what you bought for me?" ”

"Well, one piece is for you, and the other three pieces are for the three sisters of Zhaodi, you give it to them, and it will also make a few children happy!" Zhu Erlang said, looking at the empty table, there was not even a teapot or cup.

I thought that I had been to the third brother's house next door, which was full of elegance, teapots, calligraphy and paintings, and then looked at my room, and really responded to that sentence, which was hard to say.

Zhao was stunned.

Of the four pieces of fabric, she only got one.

hesitated and whispered, "They have clothes to wear, such a good fabric is still kept, and we will give it to relatives in the future, and we will have face when we go!" ”

Zhao's voice was very soft, but Zhu Erlang still heard it clearly.

Raised his eyes and looked at Zhao in surprise.

Zhao's eyes were red and swollen, and it was obvious that he had been crying for a long time.

Thinking that over the years, he hadn't given anything to the Zhao family, and nodded silently.

Zhao was overjoyed when he heard this, "Then I'll put it away!" ”

I was busy putting away the fabric, putting it in the cabinet, and when I closed the cabinet door, I couldn't help but touch it.

For not giving the cloth to the three daughters, Zhao has no guilt at all.

Seeing Zhu Erlang sitting on the stool, silent and not knowing what he was thinking, Zhao sat on the side and asked in a low voice, "Have you paid your wages?" ”

"Well, it's over!" Zhu Erlang took out the rest of the money and counted five hundred wen, "After lunch, I'll go to Dr. Zhang's side and give the medicine fee, and you can collect the rest!" ”

Zhao looked at the silver coin and swallowed his saliva.

For the first time in so many years, she had seen silver.

"These, don't you give them to your mother?" Zhao asked in a low voice.

"Don't give it, keep it for a few children to grab medicine, they are not in good health, they have to take a few pills!" Zhu Erlang said with a heavy expression.

If you don't go to work in the town and return home, how will the medicine expenses for the children come in the future?

If the eldest brother gives the money, he will also have to give it, and where will the money come from? When the children are older and want to get married, they have to prepare some dowry and save some silver.

In the past, he didn't want to do this, he just worked hard to make money, thinking that his father and daughter-in-law would arrange it, but now that he thinks about it, he realizes that he is outrageously wrong.

“……”

Zhao pursed his lips.

I want to say that it's okay if I don't take medicine, I'm just a country child, and I'm not a lady from a big family, and the family doesn't have extra money to buy medicine for them.

Looking at Zhu Erlang's expression, he didn't dare to say this.

"Erlang, are you really not going to work in the town in the future?"

"I'm not going!" Zhu Erlang said seriously.

After lunch, I plan to pay Dr. Zhang's medicine first, and then go to Fugui's house, ask him when he will go to the mountains, and take him with me.

Lu Shi came over and shouted for dinner.

Zhao was startled, and hurriedly put away the silver, Zhu Erlang comforted her softly, "Don't be afraid, even if my mother knows that we have silver, as long as we don't give it, she can't rob it!" ”

“……”

When Zhao heard this, he sighed in his heart.

If her mother-in-law knew that she had money in her hand, she would definitely try to get there.

What should she do?

Lu's voice was a little loud, Zhu Xiao heard it in the house, and walked out of the house with Zhu Hua'er.

When looking at Lu, the ruthlessness and hatred in Lu's eyes Zhu Xiao saw clearly, hooked his lips and sneered, and looked indifferently at Lu Shi over there to Zhu Erlang and ask for warmth, pretending to be fake.

"Let's go, let's go and eat!" After Lu Shi finished speaking, he walked in front, and when he left, he glanced at Zhu Xiao, looking at the sneer at the corner of Zhu Xiao's mouth, Lu Shi instantly became a little angry, and cursed viciously to his mouth, and finally could only swallow it raw.

When it was time to eat, Xiao Lu did not come.

Zhu Erlang looked at Zhu Xiao who was standing on the side, and then asked Zhu Dalang, "Big brother, is my sister-in-law okay?" ”

"It's okay, it's just a small injury, it's already smeared!" Zhu Dalang waved his hand and glanced at Zhu Xiao.

Seeing Zhu Xiao's faint look, he smiled at Zhu Xiao, "Although your sister-in-law is fine, but Xiaoxiao didn't do anything right, let Xiaoxiao apologize to her aunt in a while, saying that it won't be like this in the future, this matter will pass, and no one can mention it in the future!" ”

In the end, it is a girl, this fierce reputation spreads, and it will be difficult to marry in the future.

"What the eldest brother said is that I will let Xiaoxiao apologize to her aunt and admit her mistakes in a while!" Zhu Erlang agreed.

Old man Zhu saw that the two brothers were quite harmonious, and he did not have any suspicion because Zhu Xiao stabbed Xiao Lu with scissors, nodded with satisfaction, and said loudly, "Let's eat!" ”
