Chapter Twenty-Three: No Brains

The villagers who tied up the chrysanthemum stepmother were very face-saving and didn't escort people away directly, compared to this stepmother who was angry and abused her stepdaughter, 'Zhao Hong' seemed to be a neighbor who got along well.

Especially now Zhao Hong also met the old man in the town, and promised to take the villagers to collect medicine to make money, and the villagers are willing to give her a face.

"Smack!"

Zhao Hong walked close and shook the chrysanthemum queen mother's ear scraper, and shook her hand straight, which shows how much effort she used.

Sensing the lingering death of the queen of chrysanthemums, Zhao Hong didn't have the idea of saving her, this scourge saved a lot of trouble by herself, and she Zhao Hong didn't know who the Virgin would help.

You must know that there is a price to pay for going against the sky, and after reminding Old Man Shen of his fortune before, Lin Yuan came to the door, and then there were all kinds of troubles in the follow-up.

"Why did you force Chrysanthemum Niang to die in the first place, who in the village doesn't know? Now for a few taels of silver, I forced Chrysanthemum to admit that she had a leg with Lin Yuan, and beat Chrysanthemum to death in my house to force me to be soft-hearted, if it weren't for the clan to punish you, I would send you to the government to sue you for blackmail! ”

Zhao Hong deliberately glanced at her when he talked about chrysanthemums, and when he saw that chrysanthemums' eyes flashed slightly, he knew that this girl was not a fool with a tendon, so he continued: "This is the last time, if you dare to come to my house to make trouble, even if the patriarch points at my nose and scolds, I will send you to see the official!" ”

"Your dirty thoughts of calculating my family, there is nothing that can't be asked by a board, I would rather give the silver to the poor master who played the board, and never let you take away a penny!"

The gagged Chrysanthemum Queen's mother looked at Zhao Hong in panic, as an ordinary person, how could she have the courage to see an official?

And Zhao Hong's sentence of the official who gave the silver to the board is clearly a threat to the queen mother of the chrysanthemum, once she goes to the official mansion, she will never be allowed to come back alive!

"Don't take anyone away yet." Zhao Fugui was afraid that Zhao Hong would say more nonsense, so he hurriedly shouted, and when he passed by Zhao Hong's side, he warned in a low voice: "Can those words be said on the surface?" I thought you had grown up, but you still didn't have such a brain! ”

"I'm not annoyed, if I don't say something cruel, can I be afraid of hob meat?" Zhao Hong waved his hand and said, "Cousin, go and get down to business, don't delay me moving, it's really embarrassing to live in this thatched house." ”

"You, you, I'll talk to you about the dog's rest when I get back." Zhao Fugui strode forward, stopped at the gate, looked at the chrysanthemum that was almost unrecognizable, and said: "You also come with you, if you have anything to say in front of the patriarch, the village can call the shots for you." ”

"Yes." Chrysanthemum responded timidly, and when she passed by Zhao Hong's side, she quickly glanced up at her, and habitually followed behind the village chief with her head down, properly behaving in anger.

"Cousin." The outsiders were gone, and the dog came to Zhao Hong slowly, afraid that his disobedience would make the only person who was good to him unhappy.

Rubbing the dog's hair with withered grass, Zhao Hong smiled and said, "The porridge is not cold yet, let's go in and eat it." My cousin went to Zhou's house, and she had to find someone to help her move, or she wouldn't be able to live in it before dark. ”

"I know the Zhou family, and I'll find someone when my cousin eats." Gou Yu wanted to do what he could and behave well, but was dragged by Zhao Hong.

"Be obedient, eat more food to grow taller and stronger, and when you heal from your injury, you will have to run errands." Zhao Hong tossed through, he had no appetite for eating, patted the dog's shoulder and went out by himself.

The distance between the Zhou family is not far, and when Zhao Hong went, the Zhou family had just finished eating, except for the two people who were recuperating, none of them were idle, and they were all diligent masters.

Seeing Zhao Hong coming, the juniors respectfully called Aunt Zhao, and she was no longer the defensive appearance she used to be.

Mother Zhou even beckoned to Zhao Hong, asked her to sit beside her, and took Zhao Hong's hand and persuaded: "Children are debts owed in their previous lives, fortunately, now Lin Yuan can also see what the woman is like, and you have also taken back a lot of silver, for the sake of your grandchildren, just pass this matter, but don't hold your heart and hold back your illness again." ”

"That's what my aunt said, I'm big now. No, I just went to the village chief and bought the yard next door to you, and I want Xinghua and their mothers to help me move, and we will be neighbors in the future. Zhao Hong said with a smile.

Some unpleasant things, Zhao Hong didn't bother to say, the old people in the province are still worried, which is not conducive to recuperation.

"You bought that yard? With those ten taels of silver, you're enough to build a new house, and the money is burning, right? Zhou Xinghua's first reaction was that Zhao Honghua had wronged her money.

"No tricks, who made me want to be neighbors with you, there is no other trick except to buy his house." Zhao Hong spread his hands and said.

Zhou Xinghua didn't know whether to laugh at Zhao Hong's thoughts, or to scold her for being a loser, so she pointed at Zhao Hong twice, and hurriedly shouted that the juniors should put the work in their hands and help Zhao Hong pick up the next door first, otherwise there would be no place to live when the things were moved.

Zhou's mother and Zhou Dasheng couldn't help, but they could still do what they told the juniors to do, and what the Zhou family could produce was not distressed at all.

When it was dark, Zhao Hong took all his belongings and the rest of his dog to live in the dilapidated new home.

"There is strength in numbers, and that's true."

Looking at the roof that was repaired and the windows that were reinstalled, Zhao Hong somewhat understood why the ancients paid attention to having more children and more blessings.

If it weren't for the large population of the people and the fact that the juniors were all capable of working, Zhao Hong would live in and lie down on the kang, not only to breathe the wind everywhere, but also to see the starry sky when he opened his eyes.

"Auntie, I'll sleep in the barn. I see that the planks over there are quite sturdy, and the hay is just laid. Gou Yu looked at the small courtyard with only two rooms, and quickly found a place for himself.

"What nonsense? This house is for you, and when we go to the town to buy a new bedding, we will add clothes to you. Today is going to be one night, you can spread half of this quilt and cover half of it, and you can't freeze it if you are small. ”

Zhao Hong looked at the room and said, "I have to add a box, and then a table, and the window paper has to be pasted new." ”

This earthen house is a temporary residence, and Zhao Hong does not plan to rest and recuperate, and wait until he earns some more money to build a small three-room brick house, so that he will not suffer in winter.

I didn't know what Zhao Hong was going to do, so I didn't dare to speak anymore, and I slipped into the bed, but I thought in my heart that when Lin Yuan came back, if he could continue to stay here, he would move to the barn to live, which was better than going home and living alone in a house with only half a roof left.

This night, Zhao Hong still slept in the space, but the door was closed tightly, and she was not afraid of someone suddenly breaking in, so she didn't have to pay attention to the outside at all times, which was quite comfortable.

Moving to a new house is to have a hot stove, and Zhao Hong's woman's family is not good at inviting people from the village to come over for dinner, but the Zhou family next door is bound to be invited, so it is rare that he did not go to collect medicine on the second day, but took the dog to the town to buy it.

In addition to daily necessities, there are a lot of meat and vegetables, a few taels of silver are spent like this, Zhao Hong is not distressed at all, and the money earned is used to improve the quality of life, not to be a miser.

"Auntie, it's enough for the dog to have a change of clothes, there really doesn't need to buy it anymore, and he can still wear this on his body." After listening to the price of ready-to-wear clothes, Gou Yu pulled Zhao Hong's arm and didn't let her pick a second set.

"That's not possible, why do you have to have three sets of clothes, or don't you catch up with the cloudy rain and dry it, your cat is waiting in the bed for your cousin to dry your clothes?" Zhao Hong didn't think that the ready-to-wear was expensive, she could afford it, and she didn't know how to do needlework and didn't want to waste that effort.

The two of them were in the cloth village, and no one could persuade anyone, but Zhao Lingxiu, who peeked at this scene outside the door, hated it so much.

"Lingxiu, sister-in-law didn't lie to you, right?" Li Yunjuan opened his mouth softly, but his eyes looked at Zhao Hong, but he was shooting a knife.
