Chapter Eighty-Four: The Power of Wealth

The pig was killed, and the fried rice candy was also done, because there was acorn tofu, this soybean tofu was not done, and most of the New Year's work was done, and the rest was some miscellaneous things such as washing and cleaning.

When the sheets were washed and the house was cleaned inside and out, it was already the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month. In the morning, the sky was overcast, there was not a ray of sunshine, and before it was time for lunch, it was snowing heavily on the sky.

Chrysanthemum stood at the door, looking at the snowflakes flying in the sky, she was really happy!

It was so much fun that it snowed when everything was done. Nowadays, the family has sufficient rice and grain, abundant meat and vegetables, no shortage of firewood and grass, and the vegetable garden and well are at the door of the house. Can she not be happy? For now, she just stayed at home and burned and ate all day, baking and roasting, doing some needlework, and no one came to bother her with this heavy snow.

Aoki put down the book in his hand and asked with a smile, "Why are you so happy?" ”

Chrysanthemum told him what she had just thought.

Aoki was also happy to hear it, how could he prepare so many New Year's goods like this year in previous years, no wonder the chrysanthemums were happy.

"Brother, the little jujube you brought back from your grandmother's house that day? Let's stew some sweet soup and drink it. "Chrysanthemum suddenly wanted to eat some sweet soup, thinking of using this dried dates and peanuts to stew together, stewed rotten, the taste must be very good.

Aoki said: "Mother put it away." Sitting in the kitchen, right? Eat first, and then stew after eating. ”

Chrysanthemum nodded, returned to the fire bucket and sat down, and asked Aoki, "Brother, didn't you meet the daughter of Liu Fugui's family when you went to your grandmother's house that day?" ”

Aoki was holding a book and reading silently, and after hearing this, he froze for a while, and saw his sister looking at him with sparkling eyes, and said a little uncomfortably: "What if you meet?" ”

Chrysanthemum was surprised - did she really meet it? It can't be Liu Fugui's daughter who deliberately showed her face in front of Aoki, right?

She doesn't dare to underestimate these girls now, they are all very bold, in the words of her previous life, "dare to hate and dare to love". She heard her grandmother tell her about how capable Liu Fugui's daughter was, but she just made an evaluation - that is, this girl is quite assertive, and she may have been a strong woman in her previous life.

Seeing Chrysanthemum's curious eyes, Aoki explained, "When I went to my grandmother's house, she happened to be grinding tofu at my uncle's house. didn't say anything, just made a small deal with me, saying that her father and mother said something that shouldn't be said, and I'm very sorry for causing your sister to be gossiped about. ”

Chrysanthemum was even more impressed by Liu Fugui's daughter - didn't this small love leave a good impression in Aoki's heart?

She couldn't help but smile and asked Aoki, "Brother, what do you think of her?" Is it as good as my grandmother said? ”

Aoki saw his sister's smiling appearance, although he didn't like to talk much, but he was also willing to tell her what was on his mind: "I took a look and said a few words, how do I know if she is okay?" Besides, I don't want to say kiss right now, whatever she does; If you think too much, it will affect your reading and work. ”

Chrysanthemum laughed and said: "It's all my fault, in front of the people in the village, you said that you will talk about your relatives in four years, this is not delayed?" If there is something good, what should I do? I thought that our family wouldn't make money so quickly, and whoever wanted to earn it. Brother, you don't care, if she is really good, or if she sees a good person in the future, let's let the mother ask someone to propose. Anyway, I'm still young, and no one can take what I say seriously. ”

Aoki said seriously: "It's not because my sister said something like that that I didn't say kiss, and it's not because I lack money. I thought about it, and I thought that if I said goodbye early, I would be busy making a living all day after getting married and raising a baby. It's better to earn some family business first and then get married, and it will be more appropriate in the future. ”

Chrysanthemum said, you understand the benefits of late marriage.

Aoki saw that she was silent, so he said to her again: "When I come back, I must come with me when I come back, and I will spend the New Year at my aunt's house." I thought it was because I told my grandmother how much fish our family had divided and how much meat we kept, and he heard it, and he was greedy! ”

Chrysanthemum's eyes widened in horror and asked, "Then why didn't you come again?" ”

When Aoki saw his sister like that, he couldn't help but smile: "Grandma won't let me." Thanks to my grandmother, my second aunt agreed to come with me. ”

Chrysanthemum said angrily: "What's the use of her promise? Our family still let her call the shots? She's embarrassed and doesn't ask for your opinion. ”

Aoki shook his head and threw out another big news: "The second aunt said that Laicai will go to school next year." She is still some way away from Xiatangji, and she is not at ease to go to the school in Xiatangji, so she wants to send him to our house, saying that the school in our village is not expensive, and it is at the door of the house, and she is not afraid of accidents. ”

Now Chrysanthemum was really about to jump, and suddenly raised her voice and shouted, "Woo! So what did you say? Can my grandmother say yes? ”

Aoki hurriedly comforted her and calmed her down: "I didn't wait for my grandmother to speak, so I said that this can't be done." There is nothing else to live in our house, but Laicai is a naughty person, and we can't manage it well; Mother and Chrysanthemum are busy, where can I take care of him. If you come out of a lot, it will not be easy to talk to your aunt at that time. ”

Chrysanthemum looked at him in surprise - why did he become so good at talking?

Seeing his sister's strange eyes, Aoki couldn't help but say with some embarrassment: "That day, the Son of Heaven talked about the Analects and said a sentence: 'You can talk to you but not talk to you, and you lose people; Don't talk with words, talk with words,. That is to say, if someone is reasonable, but you don't explain it clearly to him, and you misunderstand it, and you miss it, this is called 'losing someone'; And some people are unreasonable, and if you have to persuade them with a reason, it is self-inflicted, and this is called 'gaffe'. I think the second aunt is unreasonable, I have nothing to say to her, I just don't agree, I can't listen to it after I think about it, and I'm angry.

Chrysanthemum was really surprised and wanted to laugh when she heard it, if Confucius and his old man knew that his famous words could make a simple village baby suddenly become smooth and decisive, I don't know how he would feel. Chrysanthemums, of course, are only happy.

She still couldn't hold back and laughed with Aoki for a long time.

Yang happened to come in and came over with Zheng Changhe with vegetables and stoves, and when he saw the brother and sister smiling happily, he asked, "What are you laughing at?" ”

Chrysanthemum then told her about the wealth.

Yang's voice also rose suddenly: "She dares to send it?" I sent her back right away. Don't look at what you're used to when you come to money, and you still send me here? I hit it three times a day. ”

She reacted the same as Chrysanthemum, even if she heard Aoki say that she rejected her second aunt, she would have palpitations and be so angry - can't this second sister-in-law stop a little?

Chrysanthemum looked at her mother and reacted more than herself, and said in her heart, this wealth is too powerful, and her family can be scared like this from such a distance. Her mother had never studied the Analects, and the way she treated her second aunt was the essence of the sage's sentence.

"Ouch! Mother, aren't they coming to pay New Year's greetings after the Chinese New Year? Chrysanthemum suddenly remembered something and hurriedly asked Yang.

Aoki saw that Chrysanthemum avoided wealth like a snake and scorpion, thinking that his sister was really tormented by Fortune, he comforted Chrysanthemum: "Usually they go to their grandmother's house to pay New Year's greetings first, and then come here to stay for one night. Sometimes I don't stay, I have lunch and leave. ”

Zheng Changhe also said: "Your second aunt is also going back to her parents' house, so there is not so much time to come here." ”

Yang and Chrysanthemum glanced at each other, and Yang said, "I'm afraid it won't be this year." She's definitely going to have to toss. In previous years, our family was poor, and there was no hope for her to come; Now that she has food and drink, she has that temperament, I'm afraid she doesn't want to go away! Alas! If this stingy talk makes people listen to the quasi-joke, people who don't know will think that we are six relatives and don't recognize it. I'm afraid that she will come to eat and drink, I don't want her to bring money to toss - I'm really afraid of that baby. Speaking of which, I am an aunt, and I am married to a daughter, so I don't have to worry too much, and the second brother is not happy to hear it. ”

Chrysanthemum said listlessly, "I think so too." She's going to be coming for a few days, and we've got so much meat left. ”

Aoki and Zheng Changhe were also stunned, and they found that the prospects were not good-!

Chrysanthemum saw that everyone was disturbed by a little baby, and couldn't help laughing, and said in her heart, who is really afraid that he and his second aunt will not succeed, but for the sake of his uncle and grandmother. It seems that she still wants her to beat this baby so that he doesn't dare to come, and this matter is over.

So, he jumped out of the fire bucket and said to the Yang family: "Okay, can he still live in our house for the rest of his life?" When the time comes, I will bring my aunt, grandmother, and cousin Laifulaixi. When they left, the second aunt was too embarrassed not to leave? I'm afraid my grandmother won't let her stay, right? ”

Yang and the others also laughed together.

Zheng Changhe said stupidly: "I have never seen such a naughty baby." ”

Chrysanthemum blinked and said, "Dad, you didn't pay attention." I found out that the boy was no worse than Laicai, and the two of them were 'big brother, don't talk about the second brother' - the two brothers are about the same. Meizi is always angry with him, no wonder the dog always wants to beat him. It's better to be a little rock, and it's naughty, but it's pleasing. ”

The family began to eat, and Yang emphasized: "She just wants to live more, and your grandmother can't agree, so she will be fine at home?" Even if you want to come to the village school to go to school, you can't agree to it. If this really comes, our family won't want to live a stable life. ”

Zheng Changhe nodded again and again with food in his mouth.

Chrysanthemum smiled: "Niang is worried, now that even my brother knows that he will ignore her, we can't agree." My mother also told my grandmother to stop her. ”

Yang nodded her forehead with chopsticks, and said in disgust, "You stupid girl! If it's a side matter, your grandmother will naturally look at us, and she will take care of it if she gets naughty when she comes to wealth; But Laicai is her grandson, if I make it clear that I dislike him so much, and run to say such things to her, won't I make the old man angry? You don't see that she is murderous at every turn, but in fact, she is distressed about getting rich. Do you expect her to cross over the fortune and plan it specifically for you? Maybe she also wants to come here to study! One is a grandson, the other is a grandson, the palm of the hand is meat, and the back of the hand is also meat, what can you tell her to do? ”

Aoki stopped his chopsticks and thought for a while, "When the second aunt said this, my grandmother really didn't say anything against it. ”

Now everyone is even more worried - if grandma comes to speak in person, won't it be troublesome? Chrysanthemum made up her mind, not to mention her grandmother, even if her grandfather crawled out of the ground at this time, and wanted to send money to come here to go to school, it would not work.
