Not long after entering the village, Aunt Zhang at the head of the village saw Zhou Yu carrying a large bag and a small bag from a distance at the door of the house, and she was still holding an old hen in her hand......

Seeing that her two old hens were safe and sound, Aunt Zhang breathed a sigh of relief, and then there was a burst of doubt in her heart, where did Aunt Su's chickens come from? It can't be bought, right? The contents of his bag seem to be quite heavy, could it be food? No, it can't be, no one in Xiaolong Village can afford to buy so much grain at one time, let alone an old hen......

The villagers of Xiaolong Village have always been poor, and they can only afford to buy young birds, and they feed them with coarse chaff until they are half old, and let them find food on their own. The hens are used to lay eggs, and the villagers use the eggs to go to the market to exchange for some money, buy a little millet, sorghum or something, and buy three or four catties at a time, and it is a luxury to be able to buy some more expensive white flour. Just these three or four catties of grain, when you return home, you have to eat carefully, how much rice to put in this porridge, and how much to put in the next meal, you have to carefully calculate. Most of the vegetables are dug up from the nearby mountains, so you don't have to think about the meat at all. If you don't work in the morning, you don't eat, and you don't eat at noon and night, which can be said to be saved. Therefore, most of the people in the entire Xiaolong Village are yellow-faced and thin-skinned, and there is only skin and bones left, and it is really not easy to produce a beauty like Feng Yue.

Zhou Yu naturally didn't know Aunt Zhang'er's doubts, he walked proudly on the country road alone, humming a little song in his mouth.

"Xiaoyue, big brother, I'm back!" Walking to the front of the Feng family's courtyard, Zhou Yu shouted excitedly.

"Xiao Yu!" A pretty figure appeared, and Feng Yue ran out to pick him up.

"Xiaoyue, tell my eldest brother, I don't have to cook tonight, I bought a drawer of steamed buns, let's eat big meat buns tonight!" Zhou Yu reminded Feng Yue loudly. Looking at Feng Yue, whose eyes were full of joy, Zhou Yu couldn't help but sigh secretly, it's good to have a woman waiting for her to come back at home!

"What? Did you use that money to buy meat buns? Feng Liang walked out of the room when he heard the sound and said in surprise. Immediately, he saw Zhou Yu carrying a big bag and a chicken, and he was even more surprised, and his voice trembled a little and said: "Xiao Yu, what are you carrying, this chicken is ......"

Feng Yue was also surprised, but she still hurriedly stepped forward and helped Zhou Yu unload the burden on her body first.

"It's so heavy!" Feng Yue didn't expect Zhou Yu's burden to be so heavy, she didn't hold it steady all of a sudden, and the burden fell to the ground, revealing what was inside.

"How did you buy so much millet...... And white noodles?! Feng Yue couldn't believe her eyes, she didn't know how long it had been since she had seen so much millet and white noodles.

"If you have money, then buy it!" Zhou Yu smiled and said.

"Xiao Yu, you...... Where did you get all this money? Feng Liang asked tremblingly.

"Hey, didn't you say it, you earn it by trading." Zhou Yu said casually.

Feng Yue was keenly aware that things were not so simple, so she asked, "What kind of business can earn so much money in one afternoon?" Xiao Yu, you honestly, where did your money come from? Was it stolen? ”

Somehow, Zhou Yu just didn't have the courage to lie to Feng Yue: "No...... Actually, I won all this money......"

"Won? Are you going to gamble? Feng Yue looked at Zhou Yu incredulously, not to mention gambling money in the past, even if he saw the gambling house, he had to stay away.

"Yes......" In front of Feng Yue, Zhou Yu lowered his head, like a child who had done something wrong.

"Xiao Yu, you are a scholar, how can you gamble for money? How did your father and mother teach you before, have you forgotten all about ten gambles and nine frauds? Zhang Orion in our village, how capable of a person, just because of gambling money, gambled his life! Xiao Yu, how did you become like this......" Feng Yue cried out in a hurry, she couldn't believe that Zhou Yu was really involved in gambling, she was even more afraid that Zhou Yu would sink and become an indiscriminate gambler.

Seeing Feng Yue crying, Zhou Yu's joy of winning the money immediately vanished, and was replaced by a helplessness. Whether it is in his previous life or in this life, the last thing he can't see is a girl crying, and the most important thing is that he can't coax it......

"Xiaoyue, I promise this is the only time, if I wasn't in a hurry to use the money, I wouldn't have made this decision. Don't worry, you will be in charge of the family's money in the future, if I gamble again, I will hit five thunders every day......" Before Zhou Yu finished speaking, Feng Yue hurriedly covered his mouth.

"I believe you, don't say those unlucky words!" Feng Yue still had tears in the corners of her eyes, but she had obviously accepted Zhou Yu's assurance, so she said again: "Xiao Yu, we are poor, but we can't go through those evil ways to make money." If you gamble for a long time, you will lose, you know this truth better than me! ”

"Got it, I'm definitely not going to gamble again in the future!" Zhou Yu assured.

Feng Yue was satisfied, and said softly: "Take all the things into the house, buy everything, and you can't waste food." ”

Feng Liang and Zhou Yu put the two big bags of rice and noodles into the house, and Zhou Yu put the chicken in the chicken pen. There was only one chicken in the huge chicken pen, and it seemed a little lonely......

The Feng family is in debt, and everything that can be sold has long been sold out, so how can there be any chickens and ducks left?

"Xiao Yu, tell my brother, how much money did you win this time?" Feng Liang leaned over to Zhou Yu and asked expectantly. Zhou Yu can buy so many things, he must have won a lot of money, Feng Liang doesn't have the same sense of justice as Feng Yue, for him who is poor and afraid, money is king, what is the matter of gambling?

Zhou Yu thought for a while and said, "Twenty taels." In fact, he won no less than twenty-five taels, but he still wanted to keep some for Feng Yue, or keep it for preparation when he needed money urgently. Since he promised Xiaoyue that he would no longer gamble, he would have to find some fair and honest ways to make money in the future.

"II...... Twenty taels?! Feng Liang's eyes widened like a ball, and his mouth was wide open.

Feng Yue, who was on the side, was also shocked when she heard it: "Twenty taels?!" ”

Zhou Yu took out two silver ingots of ten taels from his arms and put them on the table: "Oh, twenty taels!" ”

As an ordinary person, for a moment, Feng Yue also thought that if Zhou Yu gambled a few more times, would the family have no worries about food and clothing? But I immediately dispelled such thoughts, often walking by the river, how can I not get my shoes wet? I'm afraid that I will come a few more times, not to mention that I can't win money, and I will put people in......

Then Zhou Yu took out the cloth and hairpin he bought from the baggage and said, "Big brother, this is the cloth I bought for you and Xiaoyue, go back and ask the horse tailor to make you a few new clothes; Xiaoyue, this is the hairpin I bought for you, you can try it quickly! ”

"I don't want the cloth and hairpins you bought with gambling money! When you actually make money, buy it for me. Feng Yue decisively rejected Zhou Yu's gift.

"You girl's family, what kind of gambling did you get, this is obviously won by our Xiao Yu with his ability! Look at this good fabric, don't you give it to me......" Feng Liang rubbed the fabric with his hand, and the joy in his eyes could not be hidden.

"Take it if you like!" Feng Yue glared at him dissatisfied, turned around and entered the bedroom.

Seeing that Feng Yue was unhappy, Zhou Yu suddenly felt a tightness in his heart, and turned his head to Feng Liang and said: "I borrowed twenty taels from my eldest brother, and now I will pay back twenty taels from my eldest brother, and fifteen taels will be used to repay debts, and the remaining five taels will be used to thank my eldest brother for taking care of him for a month!" ”

"My good brother-in-law, we are all family, why do you say such a thing? But since you have this heart, it's not easy for me to be a big brother, so I'll accept the money! Feng Liang's eyes were already inseparable from the two ingots of silver, he might have forgotten that a few hours ago, he still wanted to bury his "good brother-in-law" alive......

"Big brother will accept it, I'll go see Xiaoyue......" Zhou Yu said.

"Go, go, go!" Feng Liang picked up the silver ingot and blew it, listening to the ringing in his ears......

When he came to the bedroom, Zhou Yu hugged Feng Yue, who was sitting at the table, from behind, Feng Yue struggled a few times and gave up, letting Zhou Yu hold him.

"Big brother is so greedy for money, I'm really afraid that one day he will have an accident because of this." Feng Yue voiced her concerns.

"The eldest brother is also poor, and it is reasonable to love money more than others! I promise, in the future, I will earn money to buy you a white hosta, so that you can live in a big house with three entrances and three exits! Zhou Yu said to Feng Yue.

"Okay, you don't think much about bragging, I don't want to live in a big house, as long as I can eat enough and be with you every day!" Feng Yue smiled after listening to Zhou Yu's words, showing her heart.

"Otherwise, let's elope with the money and leave the eldest brother here, anyway, he has money now." Zhou Yu deliberately joked.

"you...... My eldest brother has taken care of me since I was a child, and I can't leave him here alone. Feng Yue said seriously.

"So, you're willing to elope with me?" Zhou Yu looked at Feng Yuedao with a smile.

"Oops, you hate it to death......" Realizing that he had fallen into Zhou Yu's trap, Feng Yue's face turned red with shame.

Zhou Yu teased Feng Yue for a while, and the unhappiness on the little girl's face disappeared.

"Come and eat, that big meat bun will be cold if you don't eat it!" Zhou Yu said.

"Hmm...... It's been a long time since I've eaten meat at home,......" Feng Yue said in a low voice.

The three of them sat in the courtyard, today's dinner is gruel with big meat buns, Zhou Yu dared to say that this is definitely the most luxurious dinner in Xiaolong Village, there is no one.

Among them, Feng Liang ate the most fragrant, and he showed off four of the ten big meat buns alone. The meat buns were made big, and Zhou Yu was accompanied by gruel, and he already felt full after eating only two. Feng Yue's appetite was even smaller, and he was full before he even finished the second one, and the rest was still solved by Zhou Yu for him.

In this family, Feng Liang is the only one who has been really hungry for a long time, he left all the good things to Feng Yue, and he usually gives Feng Yue more for dinner, otherwise how could there be such a beautiful girl?

Just as Zhou Yu was about to put away the bowl, a small figure outside ran over.

"Sister Feng, what are you eating tonight?" A little boy of seven or eight years old stood at the gate of the courtyard and asked.

This is the youngest son of Aunt Zhang's family, Zhuzi. The pillar was very thin, and even his face was not fleshy, and his complexion was not ruddy, and he thought that he was like the rest of the village, and he did not have a lot to eat.

"It's a pillar, you're really lucky today, your brother Zhou bought meat buns, and there are just two left, so I'll give them to you!" Feng Yue smiled and gave the remaining two meat buns to the pillar.

If Feng Yue had given away meat buns before, Feng Liang would definitely stop him, and even quarrel with her, he was hungry, how could he give things to others? But now that he has money, he has a brother-in-law who can make such money, plus he also knows that Feng Yue is kind-hearted and loves to help others since he was a child, anyway, now that he has money, he will let her go.

"Thank you, Sister Feng, then I'll go home first!" The pillar got two meat buns and smiled like a flower. Their family, like Feng Yue, hadn't eaten meat for a long time, and now that they had meat buns, he wanted to take them back to his parents and try them.

"Mother, meat buns!" Zhu Zi ran into the kitchen and shouted at Aunt Zhang.

Looking at the pillar holding the two meat buns, Aunt Zhang put down the pot and spoon for cooking porridge and asked in surprise, "Where did you get this meat bun?" ”

"Sister Feng's father-in-law bought it, and Sister Feng gave it to me!" The pillar replied. Most of the people in Xiaolong Village knew about Feng Yue and Zhou Yu, if it weren't for Zhou Yu's accident a few days before their wedding, the two would have been husband and wife now. And Feng Yue is very popular with the children in the village because of her kindness, and Zhou Yu has always been called "Sister Feng's father-in-law".

Should I say it or not, it sounds a little bit like a bit of a bully......"

"Feng Yue's father-in-law? You mean the Zhou boy? Aunt Zhang froze in disbelief.

"That's right, Sister Feng said that Brother Zhou bought it!" Zhuzi put the meat buns into the bowl and said excitedly to Aunt Zhang: "Mother, we can eat meat buns tonight!" ”

"Good...... Good...... Eating meat buns...... "Aunt Zhang was still immersed in shock.

When the pillar saw that she had agreed, he happily ran to find his father,

Aunt Zhang was still staring at the two meat buns.

The Zhou family kid is just a poor scholar, and he still owes a lot of debts, how can he have the money to buy meat buns? No, I saw him carrying a lot of things on his back this afternoon, and he was carrying a chicken, could it be that he bought all those things? Where did he get all this money? Isn't there a way to make a fortune? No, you have to ask the Zhou family boy after eating......

Thinking of eating, Aunt Zhang came back to her senses and remembered that she was still cooking porridge!

"My porridge!" Aunt Zhang hurriedly put a pot of gruel into the basin, for fear that the porridge would become less after cooking for a long time......
