Chapter 41: The Lost Silver Taels

The eldest girl looked at Zhang Dafa, why was the money gone, but the eldest girl looked indifferent.

"Boss, don't you put it well? Why is it gone, have you changed places? Cuihua asked anxiously.

"No, I'll put it in the rat hole, but ......" Zhang Dafa looked a scoundrel.

"Dad, forget it, there wasn't much money that night, don't worry about money." In fact, the eldest girl was very speechless in her heart, how could this father hide money so strangely, stuffing money into the mouse hole.

"Then what's going on with your store? Isn't this about to open? That's all the belongings." Zhang Dafa had a sad face.

"Dad, didn't you pay me back the other day? Did you pile up the ground? The big girl looked around to look elsewhere.

"Oops!" Cuihua was taken aback, "It can't be that Changgong who stole it, he hasn't come back these days." ”

Cuihua said this, Zhang Dafa held the cane in his hand tightly and said, "Maybe it's really true."

"How is it possible, he was arranged by me to go to a distant place to buy me a medicinal herb that can't be picked here, and ......." The big girl was speechless, and how could the man she fancied be a thief.

"Then where the hell did the money go......" Zhang Dafa anxiously pushed his crutches to the ground and kept crutches.

"Dad, don't worry, just this little money, small problems, I'll take care of it." The eldest girl looked at the herbs in the sieve. "Mother, you come with me to the village to see if anyone's herbs have dried up, let's go collect some herbs and take them to the pharmacy. Dad, don't worry about that money, I'm here. The eldest girl comforted Zhang Dafa, who was still sad.

"Hey." Cuihua agreed, and went to the village with the eldest girl to collect herbs.

The mother and daughter went door to door to collect their herbs, but some of them did not give them to the eldest girl, saying that they wanted to take them to the pharmacy themselves. The eldest girl is not reluctant, she must make a profit from selling it herself, and they are unwilling to make that money for themselves, so they can't embarrass others.

The mother and daughter carried the medicine into the car, and the eldest girl drove the carriage to the county seat alone......

"In charge, you are at home every day, where do you say you can go with the money." Cuihua still didn't think about the money. For a poor peasant like them, this forty taels of silver is not a small amount, and it can be used by a family for a year.

"This ...... How do I know," Zhang Dafa couldn't think of anything when he squeezed his head, "By the way, we weren't at home on the day Da Niu died, and that long-term worker was not seen that day." ”

"That's not the case, the eldest sister came back that day and saw that you were not at home, and she talked to Brother Li in the yard for a while, and then the eldest sister entered the house, and Brother Li left." The little girl stared at her anxious father and mother with a pair of eyes.

Zhang Dafa and Cuihua glanced at each other and said, "Have you told anyone about the money?" ”

"I ...... Not...... Yes! Cuihua hurriedly covered her mouth, glared at her eyes and whispered, "She...... She...... Three aunts. ”

"You aunt!" Zhang Dafa's eyes glared at Cuihua, "Alas! Why did you tell her about this, I'll go find her. Zhang said that he was about to go out.

"Boss." Cuihua hurriedly pulled Zhang Dafa. "You don't have any evidence, what are you going to say? Isn't that a mess up the yard? ”

"What's going on? Could it be that this money was taken by her for nothing? That's what the big girl wants to use for business, how can this store be opened if there is no money?! Zhang Dafa looked like an ant on a hot pot.

"This ...... Why don't you wait for the big girl to come back? Cuihua persuaded.

"Hey!" Zhang Dafa sat on the bench with a buttocks, pulling a face

……

When the eldest girl came to the county seat, she first pulled the kimchi to the noodle shop, and called Uncle Wang to help move the kimchi into the back kitchen.

"Miss, are these the pickles you said you were going to give away for free?" Uncle Wang said and smelled it, and a sour smell went straight to his nose, and it was quite fragrant.

"If you think about it too much, it's just a few days in the beginning, and once the time passes, it will be charged." The big girl worked hard to carry a jar of kimchi.

"That can't be given for nothing like this, as soon as it opens, it will be given away for nothing, then ......"

"Stop!" The eldest girl hurriedly stopped Uncle Wang, "Our store is not only selling Yangchun noodles and a ball of harmony, we must gradually make our business bigger and wider." The big girl said vigorously.

"But the old man's Yang Chun noodles, they have eaten them, and I don't know if they will come to appreciate their faces." Uncle Wang couldn't open the small noodle restaurant before, but when he reopened, he had to make Yangchun noodles, although he liked it very much, but it was also worrying that no one would come to eat it.

"Uncle Wang, speaking of which, I have something to discuss with you." The two of them moved the last jar of kimchi in together, "Uncle Wang, you and I will go and buy this medicinal herb together, and talk to you about noodles on the way." ”

"Gotcha." Uncle Wang drove the carriage, and the eldest girl also sat outside.

"We want to make a fuss about this side again, that is, to change the soup without changing the medicine!" The eldest girl looked at Uncle Wang confidently.

"I've been making noodles for more than ten years, and I've studied a lot of this soup. But...... "Uncle Wang really doesn't understand what the big girl means."

"How did you make noodles and shaozi soup before, we will change our old habits, and now we will use big bone broth to make shaozi."

"That's good." Uncle Wang was happy when he heard it.

"This big bone is just the main ingredient, and this big bone is not expensive. The most important thing for us is the cooking method of this big bone broth, and I will give you a secret recipe tomorrow. ”

"Oops! This can't work, the secret recipe is still in your hands, and the old man just cooks the noodles. Uncle Wang resigned.

As they spoke, they came to the pharmacy, and when the old man of the pharmacy saw Uncle Wang, he respectfully stepped forward to salute, and doubled the price of the herb and took all the herbs according to the order, a total of twenty taels of silver.

After leaving the pharmacy, Wang Bocai told the eldest girl that this medicinal herb shop was a branch opened by his nephew, and he did not accept his nephew's money, so he sometimes picked some herbs to buy, and they always counted it like this.

It seems that there is no endless road, and this can make the big girl happy......

Zhang's Yard ......

Zhang Dafa was aggrieved in the room, and when he heard He talking outside, his heart became more and more unbearable. As soon as the cow's temper came, Cuihua didn't pay attention, and rushed out on crutches.

"Her third aunt! Did you steal my money from the mouse hole? Zhang Dafa pointed at He angrily.

He Shi was shocked, why did the eldest brother splash a jar on his head all of a sudden, dropped the broom in his hand, and walked in front of Zhang Dafa in a few big steps and said:

"Big brother. You have to talk about evidence, and your eyes see that I stole your money. ”

"It's not who you are, Cuihua told you about it alone, is there still a ghost?" Zhang Dafa looked angry, "That money is what the big girl needs to use to open a store, you hurry up and hand over the forty taels of silver to me!" ”

Cuihua hurriedly ran out and pulled Zhang Dafa while persuading.

The monk who was made by Zhang Dafa was so confused that when did he steal his family's money, he was really going to be angry.

"Big brother, that eye saw me stealing your money, I He Hua has been clean since I was a child, and I bite people like a mad dog, you don't deserve ......"

'Snap' slapped him his face, and he fell to the ground all of a sudden, and immediately felt a pain in her lower abdomen, but her heart hurt even more.

"What do you say about big brother?!" As soon as Zhang Dacai entered the house, he heard his daughter-in-law scolding his eldest brother, and he slapped He in the face when he dropped the hoe.

"Oh, I'm not alive anymore, I can't live this day, this family doesn't want me to live, I'm a ghost, I'm dead......" He sat on the ground and cried.

Just now, he was still strong, and he was slapped by his own master and fanned down that breath, which was cold.

"Who do you say is the ghost?" Zhang Da was so angry that his buttocks smoked, "Third child, take care of your mother-in-law and ask her to hand over the forty taels of silver from the eldest girl, which the eldest girl is going to use urgently." ”

"Big brother." Zhang Dacai looked embarrassed, "You aunt-in-law, what are you doing with your eldest brother's money?" Isn't there still money in the house? Zhang Dacai said and raised his hand to greet him.

"Third uncle!" At this time, the eldest baby walked out of the house and pulled Zhang Dacai.

"What's going on?" The old lady limped out of the house.

"Mother, I'm not alive, I'm not alive......" He wailed while holding his mother-in-law's legs.

"Mother." Zhang Da was worried about his face, he didn't speak, he couldn't hold back in his heart, and if he didn't ask for the money, how could the big girl open the store.

"I heard you howling from afar, what are you howling? A yard full of smoke and miasma! Old Man Zhang walked into the yard barefoot, threw the hoe to the ground, and stared at He on the ground.

When He saw that his father-in-law was back, he cried even more fiercely, got up and trembled and said, "Dad, my eldest brother wronged me, saying that I stole his money and beat me with a lot of money, and I can't live anymore." ”

"Get out of the way! Boss, what's going on? Old Man Zhang put the hoe down and sat on the stone bench.

"Dad, she stole the forty taels of silver that the eldest girl used to open the shop, and she still didn't admit it." Zhang Dafa looked at this He angrily.

"I didn't, not me!" Ho retorted cryingly.

"Stop howling!" Old Man Zhang screamed, and He stopped crying, "Boss, you said she took your money, so how does she know where you put your money?" ”

"Emerald ...... Cuihua told her. ”

Old Man Zhang glanced at Cuihua with disdain and looked at He, "Take it out, you can't make a fortune with that little money, return it!" ”

"I didn't take it, what did I give, the master, you have something to say." He's this rat drills the bellows at both ends.

Zhang Dacai pulled a face, "If you take it, hurry up and return it!" ”

"In charge, let's wait for the big girl to come back, don't make trouble, this ...... It's all my fault! Cuihua said and slapped herself.

"Our old Zhang family doesn't leave this kind of person who steals chickens and dogs!" When Old Man Zhang saw that He still didn't hand over the money, he said cruel things.

"I ...... I...... I'm not alive anymore! As soon as He was excited, he hit his head on the eaves pillar......
