Chapter Twenty-Seven: A Chance Encounter with an Uncle
"Mother, I know what you mean, you are my mother, no matter who earns the money, you should take it, the reason why I didn't give it to you before was because I was afraid that you wouldn't be able to keep it, and now that we are out, we will keep it for you, and I will take care of it when I want to use it."
While speaking, Bai Zhi raised her hand and took Xia Xueniang's hand.
"Let's go, let's go buy two pieces of cloth to make clothes."
In fact, Bai Zhi was originally going to give the silver to Xia Xueniang at the beginning, but it was because of Xia Xueniang's words later that she dispelled this idea, her mother's temperament is soft, in the Bai family, maybe how to give the Zhou family and them a foolish 1510 spit out, when the time comes, the money is gone, not to mention, maybe they have to use their mother as a tool to make money, and let them make money in a different way, just like a vampire.
Now that they have come out of the Bai family, it will be different, besides, this is not much, but as long as the matter of Shengcai Restaurant can be done, they will not spend too much money in the future.
Xia Xueniang took the money, which she didn't want originally, but when she saw Bai Zhi say this, she nodded: "That mother will collect it for you as a dowry." ”
Dowry, dowry!!
Bai Zhi walked beside Xia Xueniang, and after hearing Xia Xueniang's words, she couldn't help but stumble, and almost didn't squirt out a mouthful of old blood.
She's still a kid, okay? Is it really good to mention the dowry so early?
Bai Zhi's reaction naturally fell into Xia Xueniang's eyes, and she thought Bai Zhi was shy.
"The most important thing for a girl's family is to find a good family, so that there is a hope for a lifetime, what is there to be shy."
As she spoke, Xia Xueniang's eyes flashed with gloom.
However, as soon as Xia Xueniang's words were finished, Bai Zhi, who was walking beside her, couldn't help but pout, all women in this era think about marrying a good family, in fact, not only women in this era, but also when she didn't cross over, many women there also had such thoughts.
Find a good family to marry, and you will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of your life, and it is better to marry well than to do well.
Many mothers also educate their children in this way.
However, people who think like this will eventually have a woman who is truly happy in marriage.
"Mother, I'm still young."
Bai Zhi would not be stupid enough to say to Xia Xueniang that a woman should be self-reliant, after all, some people disagree with such words in the twenty-first century, let alone in this era.
Women are always an accessory, and some are even a tool for inheritance, so that they can be self-reliant and independent, in this way, if people hear it, I am afraid that they will treat her as a madman.
"It's not small, you don't have to worry about this, my mother will naturally help you check it, okay, let's go in and choose the cloth."
Xia Xueniang didn't take Bai Zhi's words to heart, and the two of them arrived at the ready-to-wear store while talking.
Originally, Xia Xueniang asked Bai Zhi to choose one body, but in the end, Bai Zhi directly made a decision, and did not buy ready-to-wear, but directly bought a piece of cloth, the color was not very bright, and it was enough to make two clothes.
"Zhi'er, why don't you choose a colored dress, this cloth will cost half a horse."
Xia Xueniang glanced at the cloth that Bai Zhi was holding, it was blue, but it was the same color as if it was washed and white, no matter how you look at it, Zhi'er is still so young, anyway, she is buying clothes, how can she buy some brightly colored clothes to look good.
"No need mother, this color is very good, I like it very much, and I wear it so bright and eye-catching."
In Xia Xueniang's eyes, the white color of washing is not a good color at all, and Bai Zhi likes it.
Washed blue, how good-looking, and what she said is also the truth, now they really can't wear too ostentatious, the village has a lot of people, not to mention the pile of the best in their house, it is other people, they are cold and rich, and they live in a broken temple, and there is not even a door, who knows if someone will be angry with them and come to them for trouble.
Before I was incapable, I naturally tried to keep a low profile as much as possible.
Originally, Xia Xueniang also wanted Bai Zhi to make a colored dress, but after hearing Bai Zhi say this, she didn't say anything more.
After buying the cloth, the two bought two steamed buns and ate them, and then went to the rice shop to take the purchased rice, and they were ready to go back.
But there's still thirty pounds, okay??
In the end, Xia Xueniang simply didn't say anything, directly bought the back basket, and left with things on her back, Bai Zhi supported her forehead, so she had to follow, forcibly took a bag of millet out of Xia Xueniang's back basket, and followed Xia Xueniang's side to go home.
"Three Brothers and Sisters ???"
As the voice sounded, Xia Xueniang's whole person couldn't help but stiffen, Bai Zhi subconsciously frowned, but still stopped, and when she turned around, she saw Bai Dingsong frowning at the two of them, his face full of displeasure and doubt.
"Third brother and sister, why did you come to town?" Since ancient times, the eldest brother has been a husband, and Bai Dingsong has a boss posture in front of his brothers, not to mention Yu Xia Xueniang, he has never seen it in his eyes at all, and at this time he said that he was talking to Xia Xueniang, but when he heard it, he was blaming her.
It seems that Xia Xueniang's coming to the town is a big rebellion.
"We're here for something."
Xia Xueniang responded in a low voice, subconsciously wanting to avoid Bai Dingsong's gaze, and beat a drum in her heart, there is still rice in this basket, so that the eldest brother knows, he will definitely not be able to keep it, and he may not know how to make a fuss in the future.
Bai Zhi, looking at her cheap lady on the side, couldn't help but hold her forehead, especially when she saw her wanting to avoid Bai Dingsong's action of carrying the back basket, she couldn't help twitching the corners of her mouth.
Isn't this the place where there are three hundred taels of silver?
Sure enough, as soon as Xia Xueniang's words were finished, Bai Dingsong said with a calm face: "What's the matter with you coming to this town, I think you just want to be lazy." ”
"Third brother and sister, you can't be like this, your eldest sister-in-law and second sister-in-law are back, you don't want to do anything, how can you be a woman like this, and I don't know what the third brother likes about you."
After preaching, Bai Dingsong finally set his eyes on Xia Xueniang's back basket: "What are you carrying in this back basket?" As he spoke, he reached out to carry the contents of the basket.
Originally, after being preached by Bai Dingsong, Xia Xueniang's face was a little bad, but when she heard Bai Dingsong's words again, Xia Xueniang's whole face changed, and she subconsciously hid to the side.
"No, nothing, just buy something and go back."
When Bai Dingsong saw that Xia Xueniang dared to hide from him and not let him look at the back basket, his face suddenly sank and he was angry.
"Third brother and sister, what do you mean, I'm just looking at what you have in the basket, you still don't let me see it, what's the matter, this thing was bought by our Lao Bai family with money, what do you mean by not letting me see it." As he spoke, Bai Dingsong looked at Xia Xueniang with a smile and snorted.
"You didn't steal your family's money to buy these things, did you?"
Xia Xueniang was already tossed by this family, just like a mouse seeing a cat, it was already very good to be able to say a few words to Bai Dingsong in this situation before, but at this time, Bai Dingsong drank like this, and the whole person was startled, and she couldn't say a word of explanation, so she could only shake her head.
"No, no."
"No, no, you let me see what's inside, you look at you like this, you just look like a thief, why might my mother let you come out to buy something." Bai Dingsong looked at Xia Xueniang with a determined face, as if she was a thief, and as he spoke, he was about to reach out and grab Xia Xueniang's back basket.
Bai Dingsong's voice was not small, and he deliberately raised his voice when he spoke at this time, but after a few words, there were many people around, gossiping at the scene in front of him, and pointing at Xia Xueniang.
Xia Xueniang was already timid, and she was suddenly at a loss when she was pointed at like this.
"Enough!"
Seeing that there were more and more people pointing around, and Bai Dingsong's hand was about to grab the basket on Xia Xueniang's back, his eyes became cold, and he snorted.
Bai Dingsong was yelled at like this, he felt a tremble in his heart inexplicably, subconsciously stopped, and then reacted, and suddenly felt angry in his heart.
So many people watched, he actually listened to Sanya's voice, and he even had a feeling of fear, this feeling made Bai Dingsong feel extremely ashamed, as if he saw that the people around him were laughing at him, which made him eager to get back face, only to see him withdraw the hand that was about to grab the back basket, turn his head and calm his face, and look at Bai Zhi angrily.
"Sanya, what are you shouting, are you talking to your uncle like this? I don't think your mother taught you what it means to respect your elders, she didn't teach you, my uncle came to teach you. ”
As he spoke, Bai Dingsong walked in front of Bai Zhi in two steps, and raised his hand to greet Bai Zhi's face.
"Zhi'er !!" Xia Xueniang exclaimed in surprise, and was about to pounce on Bai Zhi to help her block Bai Dingsong's slap.
But Bai Zhi was still so far away from her at this time, and she was still carrying a basket on her back, so it was too late, seeing that the slap was about to fall on Bai Zhi's face, Bai Zhi hooked the corners of her mouth faintly, flashed to the side, and dodged Bai Dingsong's slap.
"Uncle, I'm afraid that the education is wrong, my father is still alive, even education can't be your turn, if you want to educate, go back to educate the lotus, teach her well, don't cause trouble anymore, this family is tired and tired for her alone, she is really at ease."
Bai Dingzhu's hand was also forced, where did he think that this slap was about to hit Bai Zhi, Bai Zhi was still able to dodge, a stumble, almost fell to the ground, angry in his heart, this cold heard Bai Zhi's words again, and suddenly he was so angry that he almost didn't come up in one breath, Bai Zhi and Bai Lotus are this little bit of, Bai Dingsong, as Bai Lotus's father, naturally knows.
also knew that Bai Zhi had the handle of the white lotus in his hand, and when he heard Bai Zhi mention the white lotus, he subconsciously felt that Bai Zhi was threatening him, and he only felt angry in his heart, but he couldn't help it.
Bai Zhi's mouth, he has also seen it, at this time, seeing her smiling and not smiling, he subconsciously felt that she was holding back in her heart, afraid that she would poke out the matter of the white lotus, so he didn't dare to choke with her anymore, but turned his head and pointed the finger at Xia Xueniang.
