In the next few days, Uncle Jin Quangui and his wife never came to the door again. (No pop-up ads) although the mother didn't say anything. But I can see that I am a little worried, and I want to ask my husband to go back to the back street to inquire, but I am embarrassed, and I am even more afraid that I will quarrel with him.

Chunying saw it in her eyes, but she didn't want to take care of it, she just buried herself in tidying up the house, making new clothes, and when she was tired, she went to the yard to walk, trim the trunks and branches and leaves, or turn over the mud floor, thinking about finding a day when the weather was fine, go on an outing outside the city, dig up a few flowers and plants and plant them, and decorate the yard.

When she has free time, she will also go to her sister's house and tease her little nephew. Every day after school, his younger brother Xiaohu will go to his sister's house to do homework with the son of the cook sister-in-law Ye, and Chunying will sometimes give a few words. Qiu Yu realized at this time that this sister was really too modest when she said that she had "learned a few words" in the past, and couldn't help but exclaim: "Miss Huo Jiabiao is so attentive." Even your later girls have patiently taught and asked, which is really rare! ”

Chunying smiled and didn't explain much, but said, "This is very easy, you can learn it if you have the heart." When my sister has nothing to do on weekdays, she takes Xiaohu's red book and recognizes it, recognizes four or five a day, and there are more than 1,000 words a year. ”

Qiu Yu was a little moved, but she didn't dare to agree directly: "I'll discuss it with your brother-in-law." It's not difficult to recognize four or five a day, but I'm afraid that after a few days, I will forget it. If you really want to learn, you can only take it slowly, and Brother Kang should leave it to the teacher. ”

Chunying smiled: "Sister, you have to have a little confidence in yourself." Don't you often say that your brother-in-law is either out of the house during the day, or stays in the front carriage shop, and you are at home with the children, but you can't help him. But if you learn to write, you can do the work on the counter in front of you! ”

Xiao'er smiled beside her: "Second girl, the things on the counter are now under Lao Ye's control, if grandma does it, what should Lao Ye do?" ”

"She's just using the analogy that I can learn to write. I also want to take Brother Kang, how can there be a reason to leave the housework and run to the front to greet the guests?! Qiu Yu glanced at her sister, Chun Ying pursed her lips and smiled and stopped talking, lowered her head and teased her little nephew for a while before saying, "The weather is good today, and the market is lively, I'll go shopping." What do you want to carry? ”

Qiu Yu thought for a while: "I made a jacket robe for your brother-in-law yesterday, the blue cotton thread is gone, you can bring me some back, and buy some high-quality rose nitrate." Brother Kang'er has itchy cheeks this morning, I'm afraid I'm guilty of spring ringworm, and I have to buy some nitrate back just in case. ”

Chunying responded, and was about to leave after getting off the kang, Xiaohu looked at him impatiently: "Second sister, do you want to go outside?" Can you ......?"

Before he could finish speaking, Chun Ying interrupted him: "If you obediently finish your homework, when I come back, I will bring you a few pieces of Jiang rice cakes, if you don't do it well, ......" Xiaohu immediately turned his eyes back to the book, his eyes widened, and he heard his sisters chuckling. I didn't move, just my eyes were rolling.

Chunying went out with a smile, and Xiaohu was still shouting behind her, "I want more beans!" No dates! She smiled more and more happily, raised her feet out of the side gate of the Lu family, and walked twenty or thirty steps east along Magpie Hutong to the spacious Chongwenmen Street.

At this time, Chongwenmen Street was really much more lively than when she and Hu Fei came to buy goods a few years ago, in addition to the flower shops and flower farmers who came to sell all kinds of flowers, there were also several taverns and restaurants, cloth shops, jewelry stores, rouge shops, pharmacies, grocery stores, grain stores, oil mills, and clothing shops...... There is everything, and there are countless small vendors in the streets and alleys, carrying their own goods to sell. Chunying looked at it, and couldn't help but think of Hu Fei's appearance when he was a seller, and his fingers touched the silver bracelet on his wrist, and his heart softened.

Hu Fei should have been in India for a while, right? I wonder how long he will be there? Hopefully he'll be back soon...... Now although her wish has been granted, she feels a little empty, and has an urge to be lazy, and just wants to stay idle every day. If Hu Fei is here, it should cheer her up, right?

I bought the thread and rose nitrate that my sister wanted, as well as Xiaohu's Jiangmi rice cake, and remembered that the Ye family kid loves to eat elm money cakes, although now although it has not yet reached the bathing Buddha Festival (the eighth day of the fourth month), there are already vendors on the street selling elm money cakes, so I picked a clean one, bought two pieces, and by the way, I bought a brass thimble for Sister-in-law Ye and Xiao'er, bought a new hat for my father, and bought her favorite snacks for my mother. In the end, Chun Ying was carrying things in both hands. I was about to go home, but I stopped in front of a silk flower shop.

Her father had told her to go back to Dongfu from time to time to say hello, and if possible, to inquire if there were any plans to buy clothes in the house. Chunying thought that she should also go to visit Shi'er, and now that she is a guest in Shangdong Mansion, the time should be appropriate, but since she wants to go back, there is no reason to be empty-handed.

She entered the silk flower shop, picked dozens of silk flowers with beautiful and chic styles and good quality, and went to the nearby seller, bought a few pieces of jewelry that were not very valuable, and then walked around the rouge shop, and finally her hands could no longer be stuffed, and then she set foot on the road home.

Today, she spent a total of more than two taels of silver, just hoping to help her father.

Two more needles and threads were made, and in the evening she went to her sister and asked where it was easier to hire a car nearby. She plans to go back to Dongfu early tomorrow morning to ask for peace.

Qiu Yu said: "Since you want to go back and ask for peace, you can't deal with it casually." The large miscellaneous courtyard at the end of the two alleys on the opposite side is also our family's property, and there is an old Tao who rents two rooms, and he is driving the car for others. His car isn't new, though. But it's not bad. Besides, this person knows the roots, and it is better to accompany you out than to find someone outside, and I am more relieved. ”

Chunying responded, Qiu Yu sent someone to invite the pottery coachman over, and the other party heard that it was the landlord's sister-in-law who wanted to hire a car, so he hurriedly said: "Grandma Lu, don't worry, I will clean up the car today, and Ming'er will come to the door early in the morning to ensure that the second girl will be taken care of." ”

Qiu Yu smiled: "Because it's going to be a day, my sister may have to go to a few places." I have something with me, I don't need you to follow it up, just take care of the things, don't let people mess around. Although there are rules there, there are mixed mouths, so please pay more attention. I'll give you 500 yuan a day, and then give you a piece of good material to make clothes for your daughter, how about it? ”

The potter's coachman answered and went away with a happy face, and the next day he drove a decent half-old carriage, cleaned inside and out, and covered with clean old felt. He himself was also wearing clean clothes, his hair was combed neatly, and he said with a smile: "You can't lose the face of Grandma Lu and the second girl." ”

When Lu's mother heard this, she was very happy, invited him to drink a bowl of hot noodle tea, learned that he had a little daughter at home, and sent him a few cakes to take back. Chunying carried a large bag and a small bag to the car, and Lu's mother helped for a while, and after a little hesitation, she said, "Chun'er, my mother has a few things I want you to help with them...... You always have to go through the backstreets......"

Chunying paused, lowered her head and sorted out her baggage: "What is it?" ”

Mother Lu's face was happy, and she hurriedly walked into the house, and after a while, she took a small cloth bag out and said in a low voice: "Here are five taels of silver, and two pieces of jewelry that I rarely wear, you take it, see the situation of your grandmother and uncle, if it is really not good, ...... Give these to them. If they're doing well, forget it. He took another bag of flour from the kitchen, sent it to the car, and peeked into the house: "Don't let your father know." ”

Chunying silently took the thing. After straightening his clothes and hair, he went out and got into the car and left.

The potter was a talkative man, he was probably seldom engaged in the work of the inner city, and was not very familiar with the roads, and several times he had to drive the curtain to point the way, but after half an hour, they finally reached their destination.

Chunying didn't know how long she would stay in Dongfu, so she went to her uncle's house first. His family lived with two other families with children, and Chunying saw that there was no sound in the house and that the door was locked, so she asked her neighbors. The woman said: "The old lady is inside, and the lock is hung by the Jin family, for fear that someone else will enter the door and move his things." Both husband and wife went on a business trip and were not at home. His eyes kept looking at the clothes on Chunying's body.

Chunying didn't care, but said in surprise: "It's not that ...... Did his man lose his errand? It's been found now?! "It's only been a few days? It's fast.

But the woman shook her head and said, "Where did you find an errand?" It's just doing odd jobs. If you want to find Jin Quangui, wait a little longer, and he will be back after lunch. Then he carefully tempted, "This garment, girl...... Did you do it yourself? Needlework is really good...... I don't know what it is? It doesn't look like a silk cloth ......"

Where did Chunying impatiently answer her? I didn't want to wait so long, thinking that my grandmother was at home, so I walked over and knocked on the door gently, and soon I heard the voice of the old man: "Who?!" The door is locked, I can't open it! Quan Gui has gone far away, and his daughter-in-law is on an errand in the house, so go to the house if you want a debt! ”

Chunying squinted, the old man sounded full of energy, and he spoke clearly, there was no symptom of "confusion", where did he look like a sick person? While she was wondering, the neighbor's woman asked, "Aren't you sick, Mama Kim?" ”

"That's right, I'm sick! If those people dare to force debts, I will be killed by a head-on, let people know that those people even dare to bully the people of the Hou Mansion, see what they do! ”

The woman smiled awkwardly at Chunying and retreated into her room.

Chunying smiled coldly, then returned to the car outside the door, asked the potter to help, moved the bag of flour, put it outside the door of her uncle's house, and said loudly: "Grandma, I am Chunying, since you can't open the door, I will put the things by the door, and when my uncle and aunt come back, let them take it in." I'll go back to the house first and say goodbye. Without waiting for the other party to answer, he walked out of the courtyard gate first.

Chunying returned to the car and told the potter's coachman to go to the front door of Dongfu. Now that she's a guest, of course she can't enter through the back door. It's just that she was in the car, and the more she thought about it, the more angry she became, thinking that her grandmother was really sick, but looking at today's situation, how many cats are there here?! Grandma's words, how do they sound like a bit of a scoundrel? Could it be that she will team up with her son and daughter-in-law to cheat her own daughter's family out of money?!

Chunying grinded her teeth, and her heart was horizontal. No, I must let my mother recognize the facts, so that she can't help but help her mother's family. Now the silver given by Kao alone is enough to provide food and clothing for my uncle's family of five, and it is more than enough, is it possible that he and his father earned back the family property, and also pay off his uncle's debts and provide him with money? !

Chunying slapped the board of the carriage and made up her mind, but the carriage braked suddenly, almost causing her to roll out of the carriage, and hurriedly climbed back to her original position, Fang Cai rubbed her elbow and asked in a loud voice: "Uncle Tao, what's the matter?" ”

The potter's voice came from some distance away: "I almost hit someone—this sister-in-law, are you okay?" Can you fall? ”

Chun Ying hurriedly raised the curtain and looked out to see what was going on, but don't really hurt people. But at this glance, she was stunned.

Isn't that Widow Cui? But her current appearance, compared to the last time we met, is more than ten years old. His hair was gray and he was wearing an old jacket. Chunying even remembered that it was the old clothes worn by Widow Cui when Cui Manru first entered the mansion on an errand shortly after she came in. Because she was much thinner than she was then, the whole dress seemed to hang on her, and when the wind blew, it became even looser. The beauty that used to be charming is no longer left in her.

What the hell happened to her? The most important mother is like this, what is Cui Manru doing?!! ~！
