Chapter 12: Relatives come to the door

The debt was finally settled, and he made a lot more money than expected.

Shuqi didn't sleep all night holding the more than five hundred taels of silver, not to mention so much, she hadn't even seen one hundred taels of silver, this time her brother's tuition was not worried, but it was useless, Chang Lai said let her take it, and he didn't say that it was for her, no matter what, the crisis in front of her was over.

"They're not coming back, are they?" The book chess that was originally picking the crack in the door was pushed open at this moment.

"That's not for sure, if you go and take on another murderous job, right?" Chang Lai entered the door and went straight to the kang, the girl was sleeping soundly, after all, it didn't take long for the genius to shine.

"You've helped me so much, I don't know how to thank you, what you said before, I... I can too, too. The more Shuqi spoke, the quieter his voice became, and his face turned red.

"What did you say before?" Chang Lai completely forgot what he said before, and didn't say that she should pay back the money or something.

"Yes. ……”

"Ah, yes, yes, yes, that is, in the future, we will make more money, build a big house, and let Yaya go to school." Chang Lai reacted immediately, this girl wanted to say, 'Make a promise by body', he said that at the time to relieve the embarrassment, not to fall into embarrassment at this moment, and quickly diverted the topic.

"No, no, I mean to say... Shuqi waved his hand, as if he had made a lot of determination, and was about to speak, but was interrupted by Changlai.

"By the way, I'm going to ask you something."

"What's the matter?"

"You can see Kun on the hill behind you, you know?" Chang Lai swept around his mind and asked a question that he had wanted to ask for a long time but never remembered.

"Kun? What's that? "I'm confused.

"It's a blue, very big flying fish." Chang Lai said and gestured.

"You mean the Silver Belly? Have you ever seen a silver belly? Shuqi's eyes widened suddenly, and he couldn't believe it.

"Woman Y?" Chang Lai's brain twitched, is this girl so open? After a while, I promised a Y woman for a while, and it seems that I underestimated her before.

"Is it a big blue fish with a silver belly?" Shuqi asked.

"Oh hahe, yes, the belly is silver, silver, well, I saw two a few days ago." Chang Lai suddenly realized that he didn't know who invented this strange name.

"You... Do you see two more? Really, you're bragging, right? Shuqi stood up from the kang all of a sudden, and the basket hanging on the hanging pole above her head was just overturned by her, and the silver was sprinkled on the kang, but fortunately the girl slept far away and was not smashed, Chang Lai was not so lucky, and he was smashed twice.

"You're actually hanging up the money? Isn't this basket supposed to be filled with snacks? It's dozens of pounds, and you're not afraid of collapsing the roof. Chang Lai rubbed his head and picked up the silver back to the basket bit by bit.

"Tell me first, did you really see the silver belly?" Shuqi ignored the scattered silver money, and was still asking about Kun.

"Yes, two, pushing, pushing, shoving, greasy and crooked, you kiss me, I'll rub you, it should be two." Tsunei put aside the basket of silver and looked at the book, which was still standing.

"You have a fairy fate, or a double fairy fate." Shuqi looked at Chang Lai seriously.

"What fairy fate, those two goods, patronizing the object, bumped me on the head, and left without even saying sorry, you sit down first, and my face hurts when I talk on my back." Chang Lai looked unhappy.

"There are almost no people in this world who have seen silver belly, and they all think it is a legend, because it is said that everyone who has seen it has become immortals, and immortals are also legends." Shu Qi said and fell into deep thought, and slowly sat down.

"What is immortal or not, and it is useless, it is important to make money in a down-to-earth manner, today, the best restaurant in the town, let's go and have a meal, according to ten taels of silver, we also live the life of a rich man." Chang Lai slapped the table, Shuqi was startled, and was pulled back from the reverie, and the maid was also awakened, rubbed her eyes, and looked at the two people on the kang for some reason.

There are a lot of restaurants in the town, and I often don't want to go to Jade Lane, so I entered a restaurant in the corner of the town, Yunlaiju.

As soon as the three of them entered the door, Xiao Er, who was originally smiling, instantly turned cold.

"Two, there are no guests today, there are no leftovers to send away, you can take a look at other houses." After speaking, he took off the white sweat towel around his neck and shook it to the door.

"The best dish, bring me a few and add a jug of wine." A silver ingot was thrown out, Xiao Eryan was quick, he caught it, and instantly smiled, Chang Lai didn't look at him, and walked inside.

"Two guests, please inside." Xiao Er lowered his eyebrows and quickly ran to the front to lead the way.

"Extra money to find." Shuqi hugged Yaya, followed closely, and when he passed by Xiao Er's side, he whispered.

"Winter Song Brewing." Xiao Er obviously saw that Chang Lai was the master, and he didn't answer the words of the book, so he shouted and walked back to the counter.

"Don't be so stingy, it's hard to be rich, you have to have a bit of rich people's atmosphere, pattern, and momentum." Chang Lai looked at the pedestrians coming and going outside the window, and seemed to be very comfortable, just in line with his arrogant words at the moment, and he was wealthy.

The three of them ate freely, their mouths were full of oil, a table of good wine and good food was almost clean, and the work of the restaurant they watched was secretly astonishing.

When you have a full meal, you start shopping.

“shopi

It's time for g! "With a full burp and a gripped tooth, Chang Lai pulled the book and chess to the West Street, where there are fat powder shops, ready-to-wear shops, cloth villages, grain and oil stores, everything.

At the beginning, I couldn't let go of the book and chess, which was too expensive and that was too expensive, Chang Lai didn't care so much, he had a posture that Lao Tzu wanted to build if he was rich.

In the end, the two people couldn't take the things they bought, and they were piled up at the door of a shop, Chang Lai went to hire an ox cart, and simply wanted to buy what he wanted, and pulled it back.

This woman is indeed a slave of money, with money becomes a king of money in seconds, beautiful clothes, rouge gouache, hairpin bracelets, cloth and cotton, rice, flour, oil and salt, fruits and vegetables, candy and preserves, and there is no place for the three people who only load the ox cart.

When they got home, after unloading the car and settling the account, the two of them were already tired and didn't want to move a step, looking at the loot piled up in a yard and a kang, and the books and chess spread on the kang were moved.

"It's good to be rich, eat and drink spicy, buy whatever you want, Brother Chang, you are really capable, I don't dare to dream like this."

"Tomorrow, you will throw away all your tattered clothes, quilts and mattresses for me, oops, I forgot to buy you two cabinets to pack clothes, and I made a mistake." Chang Lai slapped his head.

"I can hold a lot of things in this box, so I don't need to buy it, but you, I don't even have a place to put my clothes." Shuqi turned over and looked at Chang Lai.

"I'm a man, just find a place to pile up, these cotton and cloth, are you going to make cotton clothes?" Chang Lai patted the cotton in his hand.

"Yes, it's autumn, now that we have money, let's make a few good cotton clothes." The book and chess are beautiful and extremely satisfying.

"Why don't you buy it directly, just a few more wages, don't tell me that you can make cotton clothes yourself." Chang Lai looked at Shuqi with a questioning expression.

"How can the cotton clothes in the town be renewed by themselves, I won't be able to learn, anyway, it's still a few months before winter." Shuqi is full of confidence.

"Your house is leaking everywhere, you really have to make cotton clothes warmer." I often come to joke.

"It's okay, when the time comes, we'll make up for it everywhere with some clay, and add some straw to the roof to make it tighter." Shuqi looked at the roof, intending.

"Hey, Shu Qi, how about we build a house again, the big blue brick house, strong and warm, and the earth heating around the house, that is called comfortable." Chang Lai patted his thigh and sat up, gesturing to the room.

"Huh? What is earth heating? How much does that cost? To build a new house, we have to demolish the old house, where do we live? Shuqi was a little unacceptable for a while, but he still couldn't hide the longing in his eyes.

"Why don't we just go to the town and buy a house, so that I can do things and go to other towns, which is also convenient."

"But what do we want to do when we go to the town, I can't always rely on you to support me like this, after all, I have hands and feet." Speaking of which, Shuqi felt a little guilty.

"There are a lot of things that need you to do in the back, so where is this, I want you to count the money until you are soft, and spend the money until you are upset, hahahaha." Chang Lai danced with his hands.

When the two were looking forward to a better life, the sound of slamming the door sounded, and the two looked at each other, who could come to their house? Shuqi got up and went out the door.

"Second aunt?" There was a suspicious inquiry from Shuqi in the courtyard, and Chang Lai listened with his ear close to the crack in the door.

"Big girl, I heard that you came back with an ox cart and pulled a cart of good things, and a wild man followed." A high-pitched woman's voice doesn't sound good.

"I look at what I bought, tsk, why are they all piled up in the yard, such a big jar of oil? Such a large piece of meat? And the fruit? Can you still afford the fruit? Oops, preserves, your Lotus sister loves sweets, haha, that's good. As she spoke, the woman began to pick and pick up.

"Second aunt? What are you doing here? I'm not your family anymore, this is what you said personally, why take my things. Shuqi stepped forward to stop him, but was thrown off by the woman.

Chang Wang in the cowshed heard the movement, showed his head, leaned on the wall of the cowshed and blinked his eyes to see the excitement.

"Go aside, don't forget your surname Xia, your things are the things of the Xia family, and if you stop it, I will move it all." The woman continued to hold her things, completely ignoring the books behind her.

"Don't you have kung fu? Hit her! It was Chang Lai who spoke, standing in front of the house with one hand on his waist and a half-eaten cucumber in the other.

"Hey, where did you come from to ask for food, dare to meddle with our Xia family's affairs!" The woman was stunned when she heard the voice, but she followed the voice, and she was a tattered offspring, so she didn't pay any attention to him.

"These things belong to Brother Chang, not mine, you can't take them." Seeing Chang Lai, Shuqi suddenly had an idea and stepped forward to pull the woman's arm.

"It's the Xia family here, why didn't he let go of the Zhang family and didn't let go of the Li family, okay, I haven't said that you are a wild man in broad daylight, you are in exchange for skin and flesh, that is the Xia family." The woman threw away the chess pieces again and quickened the speed at which she could take her things.

"You... You are spewing blood, Brother Chang is not a wild man. Shuqi's face flushed red, and he was about to cry in a hurry.

"You shrew, see you're a woman, I won't hit you, put things down, give you three seconds, get out." Chang Lai was also angry.

"Yo, take a look, this is protected, and it is said that it is not a wild man, this is not an ordinary wild man." The woman jumped and pointed at Shu Qi and Chang Lai and shouted.

There were already a lot of onlookers gathered at the door, pointing and watching the excitement, there was a shortage of peanuts, melon seeds, ham sausages.

"You have a wild man on the left and a wild man on the right, it seems that you have a lot of experience, how many have you raised?" Chang Lai said as he walked over and grabbed the woman's hands from the back, shook his head at Shuqi and said, "Go and bring the hemp rope." ”

"You, you wild man? What are you going to do, oops, it hurts, you let go of me. The woman writhed her body and struggled as she scolded.

Someone at the door had already taken the lead and handed over the rope: "Little brother, you can use it." ”

As soon as Chang Lai looked up, my mother was the first woman I saw on the first day I entered the village - Lao Xiang!
