When Xia Xiaoqin got home, it was already ten o'clock in the evening.

Shen Shu opened the door for her, she grabbed Xia Xiaoqin's hand and whispered: "Your grandmother knows!" ”

Xia Xiaoqin glanced at the old lady Xia who was sitting in the hall, patted Shen Shu's hand gently, and signaled her not to panic.

Mrs. Xia sat on a large stool covered with cotton wool, holding Xia Xiaofu who was already asleep in her arms.

Seeing Xia Xiaoqin enter the house, Mrs. Xia's sleepy eyes that were about to open suddenly widened, she stared at Xia Xiaoqin and asked, "Where have you been!" ”

Xia Xiaoqin said very simply: "I went to Shangdu to buy a train ticket, and I have already bought it, and the sleeper ticket in five days will be purchased!" ”

"It seems that everything in the village is true! You've really borrowed a lot of money, and you're going to use that money to treat your studies! ”

Xia Xiaoqin narrowed her eyes, she only told Xia Xianhong, the village party secretary, about this, why did it reach Mrs. Xia's ears again?

Shen Shu would never tell Mrs. Xia, it must be Ma Xiaomei who is doing something!

Fortunately, she said that she was borrowing money and did not expose the matter of jade pendant!

"Milk, you can't just think about money, you have to think like this, after my brother's leg is healed, he will definitely be able to be admitted to college, and when he graduates from college, he will be the one who eats the imperial grain, and at that time he will still be worried about not being able to pay the money? When my brother has a chance, isn't the most filial piety still you, grandma? ”

Xia Xiuxue grew up in front of Mrs. Xia's eyes, and she knows better than anyone how good this second grandson is!

The grandson was paralyzed, and Mrs. Xia secretly wiped a lot of tears, and she also complained about God, why was she so blind!

"Is the money really borrowed?"

"Borrowed! It was put together by a few of my father's friends in the county, a total of 1,300 yuan. ”

Xia Xiaoqin concealed the actual amount, the hospital's telegram said that she would prepare about 3,000, and Mrs. Xia, who had never seen the world, had never seen 10,000 yuan in her life, and she would definitely give 3,000 a discount in her heart, thinking that she would never spend so much!

Isn't the hospital a place to cheat people's money?

Xia Xiaoqin's guess was right, as soon as Mrs. Xia heard that there was 1,300 yuan, she immediately lifted her spirits and became "kind": "1,300 yuan, then there must be a very thick pile, right?" What about money? Don't mess around, take it out, the milk will help you put it away! ”

"Milk, this is not a small amount, those uncles haven't made it up yet, and when they do, they will directly help me send it to the capital."

"What? Remittance? What if you arrive in the capital and people don't remit it? ”

"That person is still afraid that we borrowed money, not for my brother's leg!" Xia Xiaoqin said to Mrs. Xia, "Those uncles are thinking of their love for my father, and they don't want my brother to be so decadent, so they are willing to pool money to lend us, and when my brother has a chance, he will definitely repay them, people are shrewd, and they will definitely not go back on their word." ”

Mrs. Xia's suspicious temperament did not change: "I think that you can't go to the capital without seeing the money." ”

Xia Xiaoqin didn't bother with Mrs. Xia anymore, she changed her words and said, "1,300 yuan is not enough, can uncle and aunt lend us some more?" ”

Old Mrs. Xia almost got up from the stool when she heard this, her eyes widened, and her head shook like a rattle: "How can they lend you money!" If you want to borrow it, you should also borrow it from those uncles and aunts who are studying! After Xiuxue's mother died, the people over there were going to cut off relations with us, I really didn't have any conscience at all, why was Xiuxue also their grandfather's grandson, so I didn't want it? ”

"!" Xia Xiuxue's voice came from the West House, and suddenly choked Mrs. Xia, who kept "horning".

Xia Xiaofu couldn't sleep well because of the noise, and his little fist shook a few times in the air.

Mrs. Xia hurriedly shook Xia Xiaofu and began to coax, and after coaxing him to sleep, she muttered in a low voice: "There are no good people with the surname Hou!" ”

Shen Shu, who had not spoken for a long time, had lived in the Xia family for eighteen years, and the Xia family had never talked about Xia Xiu's mother in front of her, but she had heard a lot of gossip in the village.

Shen Shu took Xia Xiaofu from Mrs. Xia's arms, turned his head and said to Xia Xiaoqin, "I've been running for a day, hurry up and go to sleep." ”

"I still have something to say!" Mrs. Xia called out to Xia Xiaoqin and asked, "You and your brother go to the capital to treat your legs, what about the tofu business?" The tofu in the city must not be broken, your uncle said that he can help make tofu, and when you come back from the capital, he will return the business to you. ”

Shen Shu's expression immediately became cold, she thought that Old Lady Xia had been guarding Xiaoqin until now, she wanted to get the money for Xia Xiuxue's leg treatment, but Xiaoqin didn't get the money back, so the matter was settled.

Unexpectedly, after going around in a circle, Mrs. Xia was planning this!

Xia Xiaoqin wanted to knock Mrs. Xia's brain open at this time to see if it was stuffed with tofu dregs!

"Milk, do you think I'll teach Uncle the secret recipe for tofu?"

"He is your uncle, your father's own brother, you are all a family, why can't you teach him! Besides, when you come back, he will return the business to you, what are you afraid of! ”

"Uncle is your family, not mine. My family only has my mother, brother and younger brother, no Xia Guoliang, and no Ma Xiaomei! ”

Mrs. Xia jumped up from the stool angrily!

"You stupid girl, what are you talking about! Am I not your family! You unfilial thing! See I don't hit you! ”

Mrs. Xia pounced on Xia Xiaoqin and wanted to beat Xia Xiaoqin, but her legs and feet didn't look like she was injured at all. Xia Xiaoqin saw that she had forgotten to even pretend to be sick, and her heart became even colder.

Xia Xiaoqin pushed Mrs. Xia back a few steps with a palm, and fell back on the stool, Mrs. Xia wanted to stand up again, but was swept away by Xia Xiaoqin's cold eyes, and only dared to move her buttocks.

Xia Xiaoqin walked up to Mrs. Xia, stared at Mrs. Xia condescendingly and said, "If you want to move to Uncle's place, I don't have any opinion at all, I can pack up your things now!" ”

"You're kicking me out? At the beginning, I said that whoever takes the secret recipe will give me a pension and send me to the end! Your dad didn't even dare to tell me to move out! ”

"Milk, my dad is dead, and he can't give you the end. Now it's me who has the secret recipe, you can choose to live in a side house, and I will give you the same pension and send you to the end of your life, or you can choose to find your other son. ”

Xia Xiaoqin pressed Mrs. Xia and continued: "Of course, I won't give the secret recipe to the uncle, after all, you chose to go to the uncle, and voluntarily gave up me to give you a pension." Also, I'll teach my mom how to make Chiba tofu, Chiba tofu is my own creation, it's not a secret recipe, it's not a leak of the secret recipe, milk, you have no opinion, right? ”

Xia Xiaoqin's momentum was unquestionable, and Mrs. Xia was completely suppressed, and she couldn't say anything to refuse.

Another reason is that Mrs. Xia knows very well what kind of person her eldest daughter-in-law Ma Xiaomei is, selfish, not as big as a needle and extremely picky, and lives with the boss? Mrs. Xia didn't dare to think about what life she would live!

Ma Xiaomei is not easy to deal with, or Shen Shu is easy to bully!

In addition, Chiba tofu is indeed created by Xia Xiaoqin, and Mrs. Xia heard the old man say that there are only golden tofu and jade tofu on the secret recipe.

Xia Xiaoqin is so smart that she can make her own tofu, she will definitely be able to make a lot of money in the future, right? Will she be able to live a good life with her?

Mrs. Xia is old, but her brain is not confused at all, but she is shrewd!

Xia Xiaoqin saw that Mrs. Xia didn't speak, and knew that she had a choice, Xia Xiaoqin took two steps back and pointed to the side room: "It's not early, your health is not good, don't stay up late." ”

Old Lady Xia moved her mouth, her eyes rolled a few times, and finally nodded, hunched over and left the hall.

Shen Shu had an illusion that when Mrs. Xia left the hall, her waist seemed to be bent even harder.

When the latch of the door of the side room is closed, the sound is very small, as if it is afraid that the emotions of the person who closes the door will be misunderstood.

Shen Shu frowned, and said with a sad face: "Xiaoqin, you seem to be scared of your milk, she is still an elder no matter what." ”

"Mom, if I don't completely put an end to the distractions of milk, when my brother and I go to the capital, my uncle will definitely be a demon!"

Shen Shu didn't think so, she was used to being bullied by Mrs. Xia, and she was angry with Ma Xiaomei because it was Ma Xiaomei's son and daughter who made the mistake, and Ma Xiaomei was the same generation as her, but Mrs. Xia was different, she was her husband's mother and her elder, and Shen Shu had to speak well to her no matter how angry she was.

Xia Xiaoqin knew that Shen Shu's temperament could not be reversed for a while, she yawned and said with a tired face: "Mom, after a day in the car, I'm so tired, let's go rest first." ”

Shen Shu loved her daughter, and when she heard this, she hurriedly asked her to go to sleep and no longer delay her time.

Xia Xiuxue, who was full of worries, stayed awake all night, and when Xia Xiaoqin got up to make tofu, he went to help cook the pot again, and only closed his eyes when the sky was slightly bright.
