Chapter 36: Surprised
Liu Dabao took out one or two pieces of silver and three hundred wen from his blanket and handed it to Daddy Yu, who hadn't seen so much money for several years.
Under the eyes of Ruyi, he stretched out his hands and took it tremblingly.
In addition to Ruyi, the father and son looked at the more than two silver coins with eagerness on their faces, and their eyes were full of hope.
"Daddy, you and your eldest brother should give these boxes of chestnuts to Master Liu and carry them to the ox cart!" Ruyi looked at Daddy Yu's expression and hurriedly reminded.
"Yes, yes, come to Yan'er, take a hand with my father." Father Yu came back to his senses, quickly stuffed the silver money into his clothes, and asked Yu Ruyan on the side to carry the chestnuts to the ox cart together.
Thirty pounds of chestnuts, twelve-year-old Ruyan picked up effortlessly, and the father and son quickly finished moving.
"Miss Yu, let me bring you a message from the shopkeeper of my family, so that you don't forget the promise of that day, and I hope to meet the girl again as soon as possible." Liu Dabao followed Ruyan and his son out of the door, and turned around and said before going out.
"Master Liu walks slowly, I remember, please tell the shopkeeper Zhang, I dare not forget the promise of the day, please don't worry about it." Hearing this, Liu Dabao turned around and went out and got into the ox cart.
As soon as Father Xiangyu gave up his hand, he drove the ox cart back, and the children outside the yard saw the ox cart coming out, laughing and scattering in all directions, chasing and playing.
When the ox cart disappeared without a trace, Daddy Jade and Ruyan returned home. Straight into the wing, Liu was sitting on the kang to make clothes, Ruyi and Dabao Xiaobao watched, Liu while doing, while explaining to Ruyi how to cut clothes, what techniques to use to sew more fine.
Ruyi listened with relish, many industries have been in contact with the previous life, but this skill of making clothes has no chance to be seen, waiting for one day to learn to make a cheongsam to give to the Liu family is an excellent idea. Ruyi thought about this, and her heart blossomed. I'm afraid that she can make it, and the Liu family may not dare to wear it out!
Ruyi's face was full of smiles, what is so funny about making clothes, this Nizi couldn't stop laughing, but it made Liu confused.
The father and son entered the wing, and Father Yu instructed Ruyan to close the door and sit down on the kang next to Liu.
took out the silver money from his pocket and handed it to Ruyi, the two silver coins were packed by Daddy Yu, and the temperature of the body became hot, and Daddy Jade held it in his hand and his face was hot.
The whole family stared at the silver money in Daddy Yu's hand with bright eyes, this family has been poor for all these years, and this silver money is really a rare thing.
Ruyi stretched out his hand to take it, this is one or two or three hundred Wen, in addition to some of the expenses for buying meat last time, there are more than four hundred Wen left, Ruyi took it out together, and the silver money for the reward did not move, and it was still covered in Ruyi's close-fitting clothes.
"Daddy and mother, this is the money left over from the sale of chestnuts this time, because Hao Yanzi also helped us go into the mountains to pick chestnuts, our family used to lose his care, so I want to give him 500 Wen, I don't know what Daddy and Mom think?" Although it is my own money, the family has made a lot of efforts, and everyone's opinions should be respected no matter what.
"It should be, it should be, we came here to take root thanks to Hao Yanzi and their family, so we should give him some of it." Father Yu and Liu looked at each other and nodded repeatedly, it is true, although five hundred big money is quite distressing, but what should be given must be given.
"That is the case, then the father will give 500 Wen to Hao Yanzi later, in addition to this 500 Wen, he also gave Dabao 100 Wen, he also made a lot of efforts, and his mother will help him keep it!" Ruyi looked at Dabaodao, originally thinking that each person had five hundred Wen, but the whole family had made great efforts, so it was not fair to divide it like this, and Dabao was still small, and it was not a good thing to give more money.
Dabao heard Ruyi mention that he had given himself a hundred words, and he happily showed eight teeth, and his eyes were full of stars.
"Wow, I've got some money!" This is the first wealth of Dabao's life, smiling toothless, walking around the house, eager to tell the world.
"Don't you be happy too early, have you forgotten what I promised you? It's just for you, but you can't move it! "Seeing Dabao's pride, Ruyi is also very happy, so he should be his education fund.
"The remaining one or two pieces of silver will be spent on the mother's parents, all kinds of expenses at home, and repairs to the house, and silver money is needed everywhere, so pay from here! Spend everything that should be spent, don't save too much on what you should eat at home, money can always be earned. Ruyi said and handed the tael of silver to Liu.
Liu took it and took out the remaining silver money from the last time from his shirt.
"This is also the silver money that Nier earned before, and these more than 700 yuan, our family is now about to have two taels of silver." Liu made this matter clear, these were all earned by wishful thinking, and she should know the whereabouts of the money anyway.
Father Yu looked at the silver and big money in his wife's hand, and couldn't calm down for a long time, he took his wife and children around for a few years, and it was not as much as the money his daughter earned in more than a month. Excited and satisfied, with such a daughter, Daddy Jade felt how good he was!
Yu Ruyan looked at Ruyi, his sister really surprised him, in this famine era, how difficult it is to make money, especially today's Liu Dabao, who is wearing a straight dress, will not be bad at a glance, but he is very respectful to his sister, how can he and his father have been treated so politely by people wearing straight clothes, these are the credit of his sister.
Besides, this money, one or two silver is the amount that can be saved by normal farmers after deducting chewing after a year of hard work, and my sister can earn it back in just over a month, it seems that Ruyi said that the plan to let himself and Dabao study in the coming year is indeed serious, is he really having the opportunity to study? Once this thought arises, it begins to ferment in the brain and can no longer be extinguished.
Yu Ruyan's mind kept rolling these thoughts, and he couldn't help but feel the blood rushing to the top of his head, if he could really study, how good would it be? Ruyan clenched his fist slightly, but his heart was beating 'thump'.
"Mother, you can just keep the money, you don't need to tell me, you should spend it and discuss it with your father, you are my father, mine is yours, there is nothing to worry about."
The family all set their eyes on themselves, or praise or gratification or admiration, Ruyi didn't know what to do to make them accept the money they earned calmly, after all, if it wasn't for them, they didn't know what the meaning of their existence in this world was, just like the previous life, nearly thirty years, they rarely had time to feel happy.
Looking back on the previous life now, it seems to be a distant dream, every day I am accepting tasks to complete tasks, there are no relatives, no friends, no love, only material enjoyment and the emptiness of life.
