587: It's an old husband and wife, how can you be reconciled 1
Cao Ge's old eyelids trembled slightly.
It seems that I tried a lot of strength, but I couldn't open my eyes.
His lips were dry, and he was muttering something.
Nanli got closer, and finally heard what Cao Ge was saying: "Rice...... Rice ......"
"......," Nanli twitched the corner of her mouth.
couldn't watch a generation of loyal ministers starve to death on the street, so she asked Zhixi to buy a bowl of white porridge.
When the people saw that she was going to move Cao Ge Lao to the side, they wanted to help.
Nanli shook her head: "I'll just come." ”
The clothes on Cao Ge's body were dirty, and there was a smell on his body, and he didn't know how many days he hadn't washed them.
She was very disgusted, took a handkerchief and put it on his shirt, and carried the person directly to the side.
Cao Ge leaned against the pillar at the door of the store, still looking half-dead.
Zhixi soon bought porridge and came back.
Nanli has never been very good at taking care of people, Nunuzui, let Zhixi help.
"No problem, senior sister." Zhixi used a small spoon to put the porridge up, and it was almost cold before it came to Cao Ge's mouth.
Cao Ge's old nose moved.
The mouth then opened slightly.
Zhixi fed a spoonful of white porridge, followed by a second spoonful.
A small half bowl of porridge goes down.
Cao Ge didn't say that his face had regained his ruddyness, but he also regained his strength a little, and he was finally able to open his eyes.
He glanced at Zhixi, then moved his head, looking at Nanli, his eyes were instantly soaked, and several emotions were rolling.
Although Nanli felt that he was old and stubborn, he wanted to save face, and he was not responsible for his wife and children, but he was concerned about the court and valued the people, and seeing him so pitiful now, the disgust in his heart disappeared.
Look, without a good wife and filial son, you can't eat enough and dress warmly, right?
"You eat, one bowl is not enough, two bowls." Nanli Road.
Cao Ge Lao shook his head: "No...... Nine princesses, I ...... I don't want to eat porridge, I want to ...... I want to eat meat. ”
Nan Li glanced at him, "Although you don't have any money, you are better than asking for more." ”
Having said that, she went to buy a bowl of small ravioli anyway.
Cao Ge Lao finished eating a bowl of porridge, and then he didn't care about the heat and ate all the small wontons.
He was so fast that Zhixi couldn't help but smack his tongue.
You must know that when you were in Xuanyue Temple before, there were so many meals, and whoever grabbed it slowly and ate it slowly, it would be hungry.
Cao Ge is in the Xuanyue Temple, and he can definitely fight!
After eating, Cao Ge looked at Nanli with a blank eye, and it was obvious that he still wanted to have an extra bowl.
Nanli said: "You've been hungry for at least two days, right?" You can only eat a little to cushion your stomach, and you can't eat too much. ”
Elder Cao Ge also thought of this truth, so he had to swallow his saliva and stop pleading.
He still wanted to save face and said: "The money paid by the Nine Princesses today, I will definitely pay it back next month." ”
Nanli said helplessly: "Come on, I'll invite you today." Didn't you take a hundred taels when you reconciled with the Li family? It's only been a few days, and you've spent it all? ”
One hundred taels in ordinary people's homes is enough for half a year.
Cao Ge has always been thrifty, how can he not spend enough?
It can't be robbed, right?
Speaking of this, Cao Ge Lao burst into tears on the spot: "I donated ninety taels for disaster relief, which was enough, but who knew that my little guy actually stole the money and ran away!" He's so hateful! Damn! ”
Nanli was expressionless.
She said, "One hundred taels, you donated ninety taels, don't you keep some for spare?" And your little guy looks very well-behaved, how can he steal? Is there some misunderstanding? ”
"No misunderstanding!" Cao Ge Lao wiped his tears, "He asked me to ask two mothers-in-law to do laundry and cook, I will have the ten taels of silver left, and I have to save flowers, I didn't agree, he just did more work in the house these days, so he was angry, he was not satisfied, but he could discuss with me, why was he so ruthless and stole all the silver!" ”
Zhixi rubbed his hands and muttered beside him, "It's just that I did more work...... Isn't this treating people as oxen, just one hand, washing, cooking, washing dishes, and mopping the floor, how can you do it. ”
Probably Cao Ge Lao knew that he was too harsh, his face turned red, and he was not as straightforward as before: "He signed the deed, how can he be ...... like this"
Nanli said: "Whoever follows you is unlucky, and if you want me, I will run." No, I'm going to have to beat you up before I run. ”
Cao Ge Lao glared at her: "Ninth Princess, don't be too harsh when you speak. ”
"Am I snarky? Okay, I won't invite you, a bowl of porridge and a bowl of small wontons, eighty yuan. Nanli stretched out her hand and made a gesture asking for money, "Please give money." ”
Cao Ge's face stiffened, and finally squeezed out a sentence: "It's all said, I'll pay you back next month." ”
Nanli asked again: "Don't you have any Yu Pei family belongings or anything?" ”
"Nope." Cao Ge Lao still looked like a matter of course, "I have a clean breeze on my sleeves, and I use it for the people, and I don't have any valuable belongings!" It's not at all the same as your second brother who wears gold and silver! ”
Nan Lile said, "You're wrong, my second brother only wears gold and not silver." ”
Cao Ge Lao was too lazy to quarrel with her, so he stood up, "That's it, I'll pay you back later." Give me a ride. ”
Nanli hurriedly took two steps back, "No, you haven't taken a shower for a few days, and your clothes are very dirty, so you can't take my carriage." ”
Sure enough, I came to touch porcelain!
Her impression of Cao Ge Lao changed sharply.
Cao Ge was annoyed, "I'm so miserable, you still don't send me, do you have a good heart." ”
"Not for you." Nanli said directly.
"......" Cao Ge didn't know how to answer for a while.
However, Nan Li's intuition was sensitive, "You shouldn't be going to borrow money from Mrs. Li, right?" ”
Cao Ge Lao coughed, a little incoherent: "Ah yes, no, what to borrow money, not to borrow money!" I'm going to have a good talk with her, talk about it, it's an old husband and wife, and they don't get along! How can you be reconciled? ”
Nanli couldn't help but roll her eyes at him again.
She put her arms around her chest and said, "Elder Cao Ge, it's useless for you to go, right?" Mrs. Li and Mr. Li experienced life and death that day, and they will not look back. ”
"I haven't said yet, how do you know it's useless." Cao Ge Lao stood up against the wall, his body trembling slightly, "Although you are the ninth princess, I have not committed a crime, you can't arrest me and imprison me, I just have to go today!" ”
Zhixi saw that he was swaying and would fall at any time, so he hurriedly helped him.
"Senior sister, he's so pitiful, or let's send him there, right?"
Nanli sighed lightly: "Zhixi, you don't know what happened, it's better not to get involved." ”
"As the saying goes, it is better to teach people to beat their sons than to teach them to divide their wives. Since he has repented, why can't the senior sister help him and accumulate merit? Zhixi's face is pure and harmless, and his big eyes are extremely clear.
To put it mildly, it's stupid.
Nanli was a little helpless, and touched his head, "Okay, let's let you see what it means to be shameless, invincible in the world." ”
As soon as he was overjoyed, he helped Cao Ge to get into the carriage.
