In the upper house of the Chu family's compound, Chu Baofeng, who had eaten dinner, was tired in front of Du Pozi.

"Mother, that slut bought chicken and meat today, and I didn't send a little to my father and you, it's really too much!"

After Mrs. Du dealt with Chu Youwen's matter, she took out the thirty taels of white silver before she could cover it, and she was already in a very bad mood, and she was even more unhappy when she heard her daughter say this.

"Eat, eat, better choke them! Today, some people have come to the door to force debts, and they still have spare money to buy big fish and meat! There will always be times when they cry! ”

"Mother, that's not what I want to say, they bought a lot of things today, and it will cost at least five or six taels to add them. Didn't the family just give them three taels, where did they say the money came from? Could it be that the county lost money and was hidden by them?"

When Du Pozi heard her daughter say this, she felt very reasonable, and she got up to ask for an explanation.

Chu Baofeng hurriedly grabbed her, what if the black light blinded her and fell.

"Mother, I can't see the road when it's dark for a while, so I'll go tomorrow morning, at least a few aunts will accompany you."

As soon as Du Pozi heard that it was reasonable, she forcibly pressed down on this idea.

"The vegetables made by the second child's family tonight are like pig food, and they are unpalatable to death! You will cook two eggs of sugar water in a while, and we will satisfy our hunger first. When I get the money back tomorrow, I'll buy you something to eat. The village woman caressed her daughter's hand lovingly.

"Mother, I still want a summer coat, and I haven't added any new clothes this year. Also, Caidie bought a new butterfly hairpin, but it looks good, and I also want my mother to buy one for me. ”

"Okay, okay, your eldest brother's matter is finally solved, as long as there is an entry, my mother will buy it for you! My daughter is dressed up nicely, and my face is bright! As long as you remember that your mother is good to you. Mrs. Chu said lovingly.

"My mother will always be my mother, I don't remember who will remember my mother's goodness?"

Over there in the old house, Ye was cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks while the light was bright, and when he saw his daughter fiddling with the pile of cornstarch, he should have remembered something.

She took out more than a dozen copper plates and said: "In the morning, as soon as you left on the front foot, someone came on the back foot, saying that it was surnamed Xu, and I made an appointment with you to see you in the Yayi teahouse in the county tomorrow, and gave the mother twelve Wen, saying that it was the carriage and horse fare." Isn't it only two pennies to go to the county?"

When Chu calmly heard it, he generally knew what was going on, who else could there be besides the local tyrant brother. Two texts one way, three people in one trip, and two trips aren't exactly 12 wen. It's rare that a rich gentleman can also be considered by others, and he thinks about it quite thoughtfully.

Alas, since they are so generous, they don't want to give a few pennies more, at least the two brothers can buy them a bun or something when they are hungry.

"Girl, you didn't see you asking your mother for money when you went to town, but you bought so many things and brought ginseng to your father! Where did you get all this money from?"

With ginseng, his own man will be saved, and of course Ye is happy. But she racked her brains and couldn't figure it out, three little dolls could earn a few taels of silver a day when they went out, unless her daughter could turn stones into gold! This silver of unknown origin is always unreliable when it is spent.

"Mother, they all said that the three of us earned it together, what are you worried about?" Chu was absent-minded, she was busy making a kind of food.

"You're my daughter, can I not worry? I'm afraid that if you do something bad, you won't be able to find a good in-law in the future. Ye shook his head and smiled bitterly, his daughter couldn't see through her since she was sick.

"I'm not even twelve, and you're trying to push me out! Do you hate my daughter so much?" Chu said calmly.

Ye Shi was stunned, what kind of annoyance is this, it is too late for his heartache.

A large family was kicked out by their parents-in-law, so they got so much land, and they had to wait until autumn to farm, how could they live for a few months. Her husband is sick and her uncle is disabled, and her children are young, so Saburo can barely be considered an adult, and she really doesn't know where the future is!

If it weren't for her daughter's idea and moving a lot of things to the house, she, as a village woman who had never even been out of the village, would definitely not be able to bear it. From the water tank to the small chopsticks, as expensive as ginseng, etc., which is not earned by a weak girl, you must know that she is not yet twelve years old, and she escaped death not long ago.

"Mother, I still want to ask you, don't we have any relatives?" Chu calmly saw that she was distracted, so he asked.

Ye Shi responded: "Yes! What's wrong?"

"I was so sick that no one came to see me, and I haven't seen anyone for almost a month. Now that my father has an accident, no one has come to visit me for such a major event as the separation of the family. On the contrary, the neighbors in the village deliver vegetables and help, and they are really distant relatives who are not as good as close neighbors, so don't want this kind of relative! ”

Ye hurriedly explained: "You have an aunt who married far away and cut off contact with the family earlier. There is also a grandmother and three uncles on my mother's side, who live in Dawang Village in the mountains. You know your nature, so your relatives are reluctant to come. They have a hard time, they come empty-handed to make the milk unhappy, and they always think that they are specially here to eat. Ye still couldn't change his words.

Chu Congrong suddenly understood, according to Du Pozi's character, if someone came without a gift, he would definitely accuse Sang of scolding Huai, and it was no wonder that relatives were reluctant to come and go.

"Mother, if I have the silver for you, can you guard against the little grandmother?" Chu Congrong doesn't care much about trivial things, and she doesn't want to take care of the housekeeper, but she is worried that the Ye family has a soft temperament and will be taken away by Du Pozi.

"I ...... At most, I ignore her! "Ye's confidence is obviously insufficient. After all, she has lived in the shadow of Du Pozi for more than ten years, and it is impossible for her waist to be hard all at once.

"When you are scared and weak, you just have to think about your father, if you don't have money to heal him, you will be paralyzed for the rest of your life! And your twin sons will be sold into slavery, and your daughters may be sold to blind widowers and the like, and my future life will be dark...... So that you can be strong. ”

"Mother promises you, mother will not let others bully you again!" Chicken Soup for the Soul really worked, and Ye Shi spoke with a lot of energy.

Well, since my mother is so motivated, encourage her to be an old man. Chu Congrong only had two taels of silver left, so he simply gave her two taels of silver, leaving only six taels for self-defense.

Ye's hands trembling when he received the silver, could it be that his daughter would be able to make a trick to produce silver?

"There is no shortage of rice and noodles at home, you can use these two taels of silver to buy chicken and ginseng soup for your father to drink, to ensure that every day is uninterrupted, and the rest is used to buy some meat and vegetables for everyone to eat." Chu calmly confessed to her, which can be regarded as a test for her, to see if she can prevent Du Pozi.

Ye Shi collected the money, and saw that his daughter was busy, and said distressedly: "What are you doing, round and round, my mother will help you?"

"Don't tell my mother first, I'll teach you later!" Chu calmly sold a pass.

Ye thought that her husband was waiting for him to take care of her, so he went with her. just told her that the rest of the tofu was soaked in water, and Aunt Niu said that it would be fine if it was left for two days.

Chu thought about it calmly, since the tofu won't be bad, he will wait until he comes back tomorrow to deal with it.

Now the things at hand are not finished, it may be very late to finish these, and I have to meet the local tyrant tomorrow, so I have to wash up well tonight, otherwise how can I get the investment in the stinky coax.

Sure enough, he was busy until midnight, and Chu Congrong felt that he was about to become a dog, so he barely finished his work. However, I was a little relieved to see my results, and the two dustpans contained small beads of white and brown coloring. Secretly looking at this temperature, it should be able to be used tomorrow morning after a cool night.

The next morning, the first thing Chu calmly got up was to care about the two dustpans, ran over to take a look, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face. The twins, who had gotten up earlier than her, heard the movement and hurriedly ran from the yard to wash her face, looking at her expectantly.

Today is polder day again, and I have meat to eat with my sister!

"Don't be too early to rejoice, I'm not going to town today." Chu calmly spread his hands and looked at them with a grin.

The two brothers immediately made bitter faces when they heard this, especially Qilang, whose mouth was so long that they could almost hang a big name.

"But ......"

When the two brothers heard that they seemed to have a discussion, their eyes immediately flashed, and they immediately promised: "No matter what my sister says, we will listen to you!" ”

Chu Congrong didn't expect them to agree so simply, she knew that the two brothers had worshiped her as a god in private. Which girl in the world will make more money than her sister? And what girl can defeat the master of the academy?

"Alright, remember what you said now. Sister won't tease you anymore, let's go to the county seat today! Eat local tyrants! ”

The twins jumped up with excitement! I went to the town before, but now I go to the county, and I can't go to the capital in the future? Hahaha......

At the entrance of the village, several ox carts were waiting for passengers. Uncle Biao saw the three sisters and brothers from afar, thinking that it was the old rule again, and was a little disappointed to learn that the three of them went to the county seat, but he still introduced the owner of the car to her and told the young car owner to send them back safely. The male light car owner named Dazhi repeatedly said yes, and said that he only charged them ten cents for back and forth, and charged two less for them.

Chu calmly followed his face, and he was introduced by an acquaintance and took the initiative to reduce the money, so he led the twins to sit on it without hesitation. Two pennies are also worth two eggs, and you can save them.

The bullock cart is not yet full, so we will have to wait a while. Several car owners chatted while greeting guests, and one car owner said: "You haven't heard of it, I heard that Shen Dashao in the town was killed!" ”

"I've heard it's not killing, it's ......" One of the owners gestured as he looked at the woman in the car.

"He must have bullied a certain girl and was sought revenge. Hehe, how painful it is to castrate! ”

"You are talking nonsense, Shen Dashao likes little boys, and people near and far know it. I don't know how many scholars he has changed over the years. It must be that the victim's family can't swallow such a bad breath, it can't be wrong! ”

……

It took almost an hour from Longgouden Village to the county seat, and it is estimated that there are more than 30 miles, which is really not an ordinary distance.

Dazhi sent everyone to the north gate of the county, and the guests entered the city on their own. He deliberately called Chu Congrong and said that he would leave the car on time at three o'clock, and he would do some work nearby. Tell her to wait where you are at the same place at three o'clock and don't miss it.

Three minutes is 3:45 o'clock, and now it is more than half of the hour, which is converted to ten o'clock, and you can only stay for more than five hours before and after.

The county seat was similar to what Chu Congrong had imagined in her heart, similar to some of the ancient cities she had been to in her lifetime. The walls are estimated to be five or six meters high, and the gates are three or four meters wide, with a gatehouse directly above them. There were no imaginary guards, and people were free to come and go, and they didn't have to pay any entrance fees. Asked Ming Yayi Teahouse, and the three of them jumped inside.

There are a lot of pedestrians on the road, and it is so bustling and lively! Chu calmly shouted in his heart, this is a good place to make money!
