Chapter 227: Cheeky

"Okay, one thousand five is one thousand five." Thinking of this, the landlord nodded, took out the IOU from his arms, and spread it out, and several handprints on it were dazzling red.
Liu Man'er checked it carefully, and after confirming that it was written by herself, she counted 1,500 taels of silver tickets to the landlord Wang, and after the landlord counted them carefully, he made sure that it was correct, and then returned the IOU to Liu Man'er.
"Now we're clear, right?" Liu Man'er took the silver ticket and said.
"It's clear." The landlord folded the silver ticket, put it in his arms, and smiled like a Buddha, "If you have any difficulties next time, just come to me." ”
"Hmm." Liu Man'er replied lightly, twisted her neck, counted the silver tickets in her hand, took out a hundred taels from them, handed them to Fang's, and said, "Mother, this is your pocket money this month." ”
Fang knew that Liu Man'er wanted to save face for her, so he stretched out his hand and took it, "Okay, I'll take this money, and I'll go around the town with your aunts tomorrow." ”
"Well, you've worked hard during this time, and when you return to the county, I'll buy you some bird's nest to make up for it." Liu Man'er said and took her child from Fang's hand, and said: "Then you can have a good chat with these aunts, although we are not short of money now, but after all, the family is big, and those who eat and drink in the future, my mother will not invite her to our house!" ”
"That's that, that's." The Fang clan hadn't spoken yet, one person had already helped her to reconcile, who was this person? It was the osmanthus aunt, she said while eating the pastry: "Don't worry, niece and daughter-in-law, with us, those pickled goods will definitely not be close to your mother-in-law." ”
Liu Man'er saw that this person's face was already so thick, and she didn't want to talk to her anymore, so she directly asked Aunt Han Han to take a bag, put all the pastries in the cloth bag, and then handed it to Aunt Osmanthus, and said, "Oh, these are for you." ”
"It's all for me?" Aunt Osmanthus took the pastry, was overjoyed, and said, "My nephew and daughter-in-law are really developed now, so generous." ”
"Well, take the pastries, turn left when you go out, and don't come to our house if you have nothing to do in the future." Liu Man'er showed an undisguised smirk at her.
"Ah, you look down on people when you're developed, right?" Aunt Osmanthus was still carrying a cloth bag of willow vines in her hand, but in the end she had already begun to be sarcastic.
"Yes." Liu Man'er didn't refute either, and said, "I'm not looking down on people, I just look down on you." ”
Hearing this straightforward words, Aunt Osmanthus suddenly had a burst of red and white on her face, in the past, she heard others say that this stupid girl has become powerful, she still doesn't think it, but now when she looks at it, it is really a powerful tightness.
"Yo, how do you talk to your elders, I'm your mother-in-law's friend." Aunt Osmanthus couldn't say anything about Liu Man'er, so she looked at Fang and said, "Ruyi, you don't care." ”
"My mother wants to take care of me, it's also a matter of later, now, you hurry up and get out of here, otherwise, I'll call someone to drive you out." Liu Man'er said coldly.
"You girl, how do you talk, and you want to drive me out, you used to take my family's things less, but just a few pastries, and you want to send me away?"
This osmanthus aunt became more and more skinned, she thought that Liu Man'er's family was developed, so she thought that if she couldn't get a slap on her, she would have to tear off a piece of skin from her body.
"Do I have any evidence of your things?" Liu Man'er smiled coldly and said: "I don't want to talk nonsense with you, if you have evidence, it will be no problem for our government to see it, but I'm afraid that you are falsely accused, and you will be beaten by the county magistrate when the time comes." ”
"You're really powerful now, and you're reporting to the official!" Having said that, Aunt Osmanthus is already obviously very sexual.
"Get out of here!" Liu Man glared and spit out two words.
Aunt Osmanthus felt scared for no reason and didn't want to say more to her, but after leaving like this, she felt a little unwilling, looked around, lowered her head, picked up the candied fruit jar that Liu Man'er's family put on the table for hospitality, and ran away.
Everyone's brows furrowed, this osmanthus is too embarrassing.
"Alright, the people in the way are finally gone." Liu Man'er clapped her hands, asked Aunt Han to serve some more pastries, and said: "A few aunts talk slowly, as long as they don't mess with right and wrong, I still welcome a few aunts to come and chat with my mother-in-law, but if you talk a lot and talk nonsense, then don't blame me for driving people away!" ”
"Alright, Man'er, you go and take the child." Seeing that the atmosphere was stiff, Fang came out to make a round.
"Got it." Hearing Fang's words, Liu Man'er's voice instantly became soft and glutinous, smiled sweetly at the aunts, and walked away leisurely.
"Your daughter-in-law is really a ghost." After Liu Man'er walked away, an aunt whispered: "She is so powerful, on weekdays, can you control her?" ”
"Actually, my daughter-in-law listens to me very much, but she can't see others say that I am bad, she just defended me." Fang spoke for Liu Man'er.
"Yes, you used to be good to her, but isn't she good to you now." Aunt Chunhua gets along with Liu Man'er a lot and knows what kind of person she is.
"Okay, let's not talk about this, come, eat, this is the candied fruit I bought in the county town Bazhen Pavilion, everyone tastes it, it's sweet." Fang said with a smile.
Everyone said that the Fang family was reluctant to say more, and they also changed the topic with interest, and said some trivial things about the Li family, such as whose child got married, whose family gave birth, and which old man in the village passed away.
Knowing that the Fang clan was not at home during this time, these people told the Fang clan what was happening in the village in great detail.
Fang Shi heard that sometimes he was happy for the family who was married, sometimes he felt sad for the old man who had lost, and sometimes he felt embarrassed for the unfilial daughter-in-law and fierce in-laws of other people's families.
"I heard that your son is very good in the Tao family." After everyone told everyone about the things in the village, they would inevitably talk about Ye Qing's affairs again.
"Oh." Fang's heartstrings tightened when he heard Ye Qing's news, but he also learned to disguise and made a look of indifference.
"Yes, he doesn't run away from the hall now, I heard that he is the second shopkeeper of the Tao family's restaurant." Another woman said, "The last time I met him in town, he greeted me." ”
"That's right, I've seen him a few times, and he's much smarter than before, but everyone else knows about him, so he will inevitably suffer a little saliva and be ridiculed."
"Let him be, I've already cut ties with him anyway." Fang's words were full of indignation, "I worked hard to raise a son, and I might as well buy a daughter-in-law for five cents." ”
Hearing that Fang's tone had changed, the people present changed the topic and said, "Forget it, anyway, we as parents want our children to live well, and between mother and son, where is the overnight feud." ”
"Well, so I don't hate him either, whatever he wants, as long as he's happy, I don't care." Fang's face smiled.
"Alas, that kid is also a tendon, we have watched him grow up since childhood, and we know that he is a stubborn person, such a person is honest and loyal, but he is also easy to be deceived." In front of the Fang family, everyone didn't want to speak ill of Ye Qing, so they only picked up some of Ye Qing's advantages and said.
"Anyway, whatever happens to him, he's doing well, I don't think about him, he's doing bad, don't come to me." Fang Shi said quite coldly: "I now take my grandchildren every day, I don't care about everything, it's good." ”
"You're right." The women nodded, and said a little sourly: "Speaking of which, we really envy you, who used to live such a hard life, but now in the blink of an eye, he has walked in front of us." ”
"Don't be presumptuous, good days are yet to come." Fang Shi said: "I almost went to report to Lord Yama some time ago, and several children were forced to borrow loan sharks in order to save me, but didn't they survive." ”
"That's, that's." And all the women responded.
Since Aunt Osmanthus was driven away by Liu Man'er, the atmosphere of Fang and the others chatting has been much better, but some of them are small-minded, and they don't dare to say anything, after all, Fang is the richest person among them, and when they heard that shops have been opened in the county, they subconsciously have more respect for the rich.
This is also the strange appearance of this society, and it is also the normal state of people.
In this countryside, who has no difficulty, maybe they will have an urgent need for money at that time, and they will inevitably have to borrow from their neighbors, but nowadays people are also poor, everyone is tight, and there is not much money to spare, so everyone who has money will be kind to her.
Especially right now, it is the time when the spring is not green, and last year they encountered horse bandits, and everyone is now tightening their belts, and they are desperately poor, so when they heard that Liu Man'er's family was back, they wanted to ask if there was anything to do, and now they have been gossiping for most of the day and have not left, that is, they want to plead with Fang's family, but they are a little difficult to speak, after all, not all people are as cheeky as Aunt Osmanthus.
sat down until dinner, Aunt Han had a few plates of pastries, and these women felt ashamed, these pastries were so delicious, so they unknowingly ate several plates of others, but now they are almost at the time of eating, and they don't leave, it is clear that they want to stay and rub the rice, which is a bit embarrassing.
"Aunt Han, cook more food, and leave a few aunts to have dinner together." Fang Shi also felt a little pitiful when he saw that these companions were all sallow-faced and vegetable, she had been in the countryside for so many years, so she naturally knew what the countryside was like at this time.
Speaking of which, she is used to staying in the county now, and she doesn't talk about delicacies and jade food every day, but at least she has no worries about food and clothing, and she doesn't do anything all day, and sometimes she even feels a little bored.
Compared with them, what a good life she has lived, but she is always not satisfied, occasionally thinking of her husband who died early at night, thinking of her two sons and still feeling that her life is miserable, the so-called family has a scripture that is difficult to read, compared to those old people who have no one to support, she feels that she is really a good life.
I can't hold on to what I should go, so let's live the current life well, at least, she still has some thoughts.
