Shen's complexion is a little bad, and so is Ziyu, it turned out that the two went to the old house and discussed with Zhou about giving Qiuyu a belly gift, but Zhou was not there, and went to the city to see Ziping, Ziping's belly is not small, and it may have been born recently.

"Originally, as soon as I saw that your aunt was not here, I wanted to go home, but who knew that your grandma pulled me and talked about it for a long time, it was nothing more than how difficult life is, how harsh your aunt is on their things, and said that your second aunt is also because of family difficulties, and she doesn't even dare to go back to her parents' house for treatment if she is sick, I don't have the patience to listen, so I brought her a basket of eggs today." Shen said.

"Mother, what my grandma means, people want to eat pork, what eggs do you have to give, didn't you listen to my grandma, haven't you smelled meat for almost a month? But I clearly remember that we brought meat to them a few days ago, and my grandma is like this, and she will never remember the good things we did. Ziyu said angrily.

"No, a few of you gave them silver for the New Year, and you didn't mention it to us, and your sister-in-law spent a penny on her, and she couldn't wait to tell us. Forget it, don't talk about this, I was a little confused just now, and when I came back to complain to you, I felt much more relaxed. Shen said.

Early the next morning, Ziqing sent Lin An to pick up Xia Yu, but coincidentally, Wang Tieshan came to send silver and account books, saying that his wife Li gave birth to a son yesterday, Ziqing took Xiaoqing Xiaolan, and wanted to go to the orange orchard in person, the gift was prepared by Ziqing a long time ago, a silver collar, a set of clothes, but unfortunately, they stopped it.

Xiaolan pointed to Ziqing's stomach and said solemnly: "Grandma, Lin An is not at home, I am afraid it is not convenient for you to walk on the street like this." ”

It's been more than four months, and her stomach is indeed a little pregnant, Ziqing feels really embarrassed to go out like this, so she has to come out with them. I'm going to go back to my parents' house and have a look.

As soon as the three of them went out, they ran into the doorbell of Tian and Zhou's house, and when they saw Ziqing, Zhou hurriedly asked, "Ziqing." Is your mother at home? Your sister-in-law's child should be born, yesterday your mother came to me to discuss the belly gift, but it happened that I was not at home, today I came to find her. ”

Seeing Ziqing go out with the two maids, Tian asked what he was doing.

"Wang Tieshan's family gave birth to a son, and he just came to send a happy letter, and he wanted to go over to send a congratulatory gift." Ziqing replied.

"Send a maid to take a look. A minion still needs you to go on a trip? A serious aunt is about to give birth, so if you don't take a look, do you have the time to see any outsiders? Ziping is just a matter of the past few days, you should also take a look. Tian said.

"Grandma, how can I go out like this, but I don't plan to let Xiao Landai run away, I was about to go home to see my mother, so I came out with me." Ziqing finished speaking. Zhou and Tian invariably looked at the burden in Xiaolan's hand, and sent Xiaolan away.

As he was talking, Liu helped the maid over and opened the door. Ziqing saw that Liu's belly was not small, so she asked with a smile: "Sister-in-law, why did you come to open the door?" My mother, they're not at home? ”

"Dad went to school, my mother and Ziyu are in the back mountain, your little nephew is making a fuss, I'll come over, and the doctor said that you should also move around more." Liu said.

When everyone entered the door, Ziqing instructed Xiaoqing to find the Shen family, made two cups of tea herself, served them, and found a chair to sit down. Zhou took Ziqing's hand and asked affectionately for a few months, whether he was tired or not, whether he liked it, Ziqing pressed the doubts in his heart and accompanied Zhou to talk.

"It stands to reason. The eldest mother should have come to see you a long time ago, but you also know that the eldest mother has a lot of things, and your younger brother is not obedient. Your sister Ping has more things, she is pregnant with a child, and she has to worry about the family's food and drink, your brother-in-law is a useless person, three days of fishing and two days of drying nets, and the little silver earned throughout the year is not enough for you to have a piece of clothing, where is you so good luck, there are two people waiting for you when you go out. Speaking of which, in the past two years, thanks to you for helping her. ”

"Auntie, look at what you said, Sister Ping is now settled, she finally has her own foothold in the city, her own house, and after a few years of hard work, there will always be a day to come." Ziqing didn't know Zhou's intention, and said a few ambiguous words to prevaricate.

"Hey, how long is it going to last? I went to the city this time, and your eldest sister told me that your eldest brother-in-law wants to open a shop in the city, so that there is an income, and it costs more money to have more children, right? Your second sister-in-law's family doesn't open a restaurant in the city now? I heard that the business was good, and the family didn't plant any land. Your eldest brother-in-law is idle, and he has been on the street for so many years, where is he not familiar? I think it's not bad to have a serious fixed thing to do, saving him to fish for three days and dry nets for two days, and the family often eats the last meal but not the next meal. ”

"It's naturally not bad to do serious things, it's rare for my brother-in-law to figure out this truth, it's just that it's not so easy to open a shop by herself, but my second sister-in-law is helping her with a whole family?" Ziqing said, her heart was full of doubts, what does opening a shop have to do with her? Didn't you already refuse last time? Not done yet?

"Aren't there still three and four hairs? Sanmao has been an apprentice for several years, and he happened to go to his own shop to experience experience. Tian said.

"Oh, it turns out that the eldest mother wants to partner with the eldest aunt? Then congratulations to the eldest lady first. Ziqing said.

Seeing this, Liu said hello, and walked out with the maid, and when Tian saw that Ziqing and Xiaoqing were left, he said: "The eight characters have not been skimmed yet." I don't want you to help, Ziqing, you see, you need dozens of taels of silver to make a dress by yourself, your Sister Ping's life is indeed difficult, don't look at anything else, just look at your Sister Ping didn't take care of you when she was young, I don't know how much old clothes were given to you, you should also reach out and pull her, and you, it's just to make a few clothes. ”

When Ziqing heard this, she dared to discuss it with the two of them, and the autumn wind came to her, and the silver was lent out, so I am afraid that I will not even see a drift. If it's really the honest and willing to do it, Ziqing doesn't care, these people, Ziqing doesn't have the slightest favor, and if she borrows it, it's better to send the silver over directly and have a good reputation.

Ziqing said with a smile: "Grandma, what you said is bad, I have a good wedding dress, I really don't know how much silver I spent, you see what I usually wear, where are there dozens of taels of silver clothes, this has to be said, you know, you can't laugh off your big teeth, think I'm bragging." ”

As he was talking, Shen took Ziyu into the door.

Ziqing hurriedly said: "Mother, grandma and aunt came to discuss with you about giving a belly gift to the little aunt." ”

"Mother, sister-in-law, this matter is worth a trip for you, according to the usual old practice, you can send it over one day. By the way, Ziqing sent Lin An to pick up Xia Yu for medical treatment, but I was afraid that she had already picked it up. Shen said.

After Shen finished speaking, he said to Ziqing: "I just saw Lin Shan looking for you at the door, it seems that your third uncle has come over, and he said that the beans in the field should be hired to pick up." Go to your house, I'm afraid that he will still be waiting for you at home. Kang Ping is not at home, you have to worry more about these things, and your second aunt is coming, I will send someone to send you a letter, I will see where she is willing to live, and I will talk about it later. ”

Ziqing listened and hurriedly got up to say goodbye, Xiaoqing came up to help her, and left.

When Tian and Zhou saw each other, they opened their mouths and said nothing. When Tian heard that Xia Yu was coming, Ziqing left again, and couldn't sit still, so he didn't say a few words, and went home.

When Ziqing returned home, she didn't see the third uncle's person, so she knew that the Shen family must have heard Tian's words, lied, and let her come out. However, Ziqing thought that the beans in the field should indeed be picked up, so she instructed Lin Shan to invite Zeng Ruiyu over.

After dinner, Ziqing just wanted to go back to see the Shen family, but saw Zeng Ruixiang coming alone, Ziqing hurriedly let him into the house, Zeng Ruixiang almost wanted to speak, looked at the maid next to him, Ziqing saw this and ordered them to go down.

"Qing'er, your grandma and aunt let Ziquan pass the word, I went over and said that I wanted to borrow some silver from you, but you didn't object, but your mother drove you away, right?" Zeng Ruixiang asked

"Dad, grandma and aunt are saying that Sister Ping's brother-in-law wants to open a shop, and just mentioned borrowing money, my mother came in and said that someone was looking for me, and I just came out."

"Your aunt said that she wanted to borrow a hundred taels of silver from you, in fact, your grandmother mentioned to me before that your aunt's big hair wanted to open her own shop, I didn't agree, really when I was playing with her? Your mother won't agree to it. The silver is not in my hands, so I don't know how to think of partnering with your eldest brother-in-law this time? I don't know how they came up with the idea of borrowing money from you. ”

Ziqing was so angry when she heard that she actually lied to her, although Ziqing had no intention of lending the silver, but when she heard that it was a partnership with Da Mao, it was even more useless. I don't know what they think, the relationship between the two families is so stiff, why do they think that they will stupidly send the silver?

"Dad, one hundred taels, it will take ten years for Da Mao to earn back if he doesn't eat or drink, Da Mao only earns five taels of silver a year, and he will ask for one hundred taels when he opens his mouth, have they thought about how to pay it back? Is it so easy to open a shop? Do you see who of them can open a shop? One is more delicious than the other, and the light will calculate others, and I will not borrow this silver. Why don't you just say it? Besides, put these aside, just rush to what Da Mao did to me back then, and I also sent the silver to the door, not to mention that Kang Ping didn't do it, but I was afraid that outsiders would have to scold us for being stupid if they found out. However, Dad, just now Grandma said that she partnered with Sanmao and Simao, and didn't mention Damao? ”

"I don't know what the specific thing is, I refused at the time, although the life of your aunt's family is indeed difficult, and your sister Ping's family is too, but it will not reach the point of not having enough to eat, people do things, after all, they have to rely on their own efforts, step by step, always want to borrow the light of others, step by step, where is such a good thing?" Zeng Ruixiang said. (To be continued)
