Chapter 52: Good Planning
He Zao stood there fearlessly, his voice was not high, but he was very calm: "Yes, master, we sold scorpions and honeysuckle, and earned a total of twelve taels of silver." ”
Old Mrs. He opened her eyes angrily, pointed at He Zao and scolded viciously: "Okay, then what you said yesterday that you only had fifty yuan left, you are lying to me!" She looked at Chen: "Say, did you say that behind your back?" What a daughter-in-law of the He family! ”
Chen's face flushed.
In her subconscious, it is an extremely unfilial thing for her children to earn money but hide it from their elders, and to find ways to spend it themselves. Although she has been helping to conceal it before, it does not mean that she really agrees to do this, and now that she has been exposed at once, she is ashamed and regretful, she should not have indulged in it in the first place.
"Dad, mother, she just wants to make ......" she opened her mouth and tried to say a few good words for He Zao.
"Mother, let me tell you." He Zao interrupted her quietly, then looked at Old Man He, and said in a calm tone: "Master, didn't you say yesterday that we should earn money by ourselves, and the money we earned will be given to the fourth brother and Qibao to go to school, and we don't have to hand it in?" No matter when you earn it, and how much you earn, grandpa and grandma should be happy for us, the fourth brother and Qibao are finally able to go to the school to study, and they don't need to help at home, shouldn't they be happy when their children are out? ”
The last sentence, I don't know if it was intentional, she bit it very clearly.
The old man He who smoked was a stagnant.
The words he uttered yesterday are still ringing in his ears.
But no one could have imagined that a few children, in just a few days, really earned more than ten taels of silver, and they still hid it from them!
He frowned, he agreed to let He Zao and them sell mountain goods to make money, that was because he knew that they couldn't earn much, just a small fight, but ten taels of silver was not a small amount, and the seven pigs with the largest financial resources in the family were tired and tired to feed until the end of the year, and they only earned fourteen or fifteen taels of silver in gross profit.
He twitched, and didn't speak for a moment.
Mrs. He didn't have so many scruples, and shouted directly: "You earn money first, and then deceive your master, what fifty wen, it is clearly more than ten taels of white silver, you little turtle grandson, little girl, your heart is big enough, and you dare to hold it yourself for more than a dozen taels of silver, so you are not afraid of pressing your hand!" ”
After a pause, she glanced at Chen's family: "Chen's, you have been married into our He family for more than ten years, what is our He family doing to you, you also know in your heart, you can't be ungrateful, you don't recognize people when you see the silver, this silver, take out a lot of money, we have nothing to do, otherwise, you take this girl and go back to your mother's house for me, our He family does not welcome to deceive the upper and lower, and eat the daughter-in-law inside and outside!" ”
No one thought that Mrs. He would say this, and everyone in the house was stunned.
Chen's face was even more pale as snow.
He family, this is going to - divorce her?
She bit her lip and panicked in her eyes.
He Zao didn't expect Mrs. He to be so ruthless, she originally wanted to be reasonable, and her voice became a little sharp: "Milk, this money master promised to let us keep it by ourselves, it has nothing to do with my mother, master, if you really want this silver to tell me, I tell you the truth, from beginning to end, my mother and she don't know these things, these silver are earned by our children, she can't be the master, and she promised that we will not interfere!" ”
"Ho, you little girl, your tone is not small, you earn this money, only you can call the shots?" He Tanger'er couldn't help but be sarcastic, and glanced at Chen sarcastically: "Third sister-in-law, they all say that you are the daughter of Xiucai's family, why should you be better at raising children than others, but I look at Zao'er disobedient to the elders, with a pungent temperament, and I can't find such a junior within a hundred miles!" ”
Dabao also had a little disgust: "Mother, these days have become more and more unpleasant, you and your father should not always indulge her, you must discipline when you should discipline, otherwise she will climb on the head of grandpa and grandma in the future!" ”
He is the eldest brother, and the eldest brother is like a father, so there is nothing that cannot be said about teaching He Zao.
Chen's face turned a little whiter, his body trembled slightly, but he barely squeezed out a smile: "Dad, mother, I told Zao'er about this silver a long time ago, it was originally to honor you, Zao'er, don't go and bring the money over, don't be distracted!" ”
She looked at He Zao's eyes, very stern.
What He Zao hates the most is her attitude.
Other people's parents, when their children are bullied and wronged, are on the side of the child, and she never expects the Chen family to defend her more, but she doesn't want the people who go back to the upper room to put pressure on her, and she is ruthless, so she goes back to practice with their own children, desperately dragging her feet!
What is she doing, do you want to gain a sense of existence in the He family? Or sacrifice them to go to the upper room?
No matter which one it is, He Zao looks down on her!
She raised her chin slightly, and her attitude was very tough: "Why! ”
Chen was a little angry about her attitude, but immediately suppressed his anger and said slowly: "Just because your surname is He, because you were born in the He family, because you were raised by the He family, because you belong to the He family from beginning to end!" When you do that, it's not right in itself. ”
Her tone was even a little bitter, like a virtuous and virtuous daughter-in-law educating her deviant daughter.
If it weren't for the wrong occasion, He Zao almost wanted to laugh out loud.
She felt that there was really a natural mismatch between her and the Chen family, and her previous efforts to change the relationship with He Zao seemed to be a big joke at this moment.
Sibao also felt that Chen's words were too much, and couldn't help but defend He Zao: "Mother, Zao'er is for me and Qibao ......"
He Zao did not want to give the money to his elders, not because he was selfish, but for a few of them.
She really really wants to plan for their family!
Mother really shouldn't say that......
"Sibao, you are a milk baby, shut up when you shouldn't interject!" Dabao interrupted him and said sharply: "If you don't learn well in the morning, you don't learn well in the morning, it's really a shame for my grandfather and father to connive at you, if I deceive the elders like this, I would have broken your legs long ago, how could I allow you to be presumptuous in front of grandma!" ”
He taught him a proper lesson, and he was not at all polite.
Sibao dug his pale lips tightly.
He Zao glanced at Dabao, and easily found the other party's hidden pride, she looked at Chen again, and suddenly said: "Okay, I know." The tone was calm and her expression was indifferent, making people not know what she was really thinking at the moment.
Chen froze and closed his mouth with no expression.
He Zao looked at Old Man He, who had been silent and sat there watching their infighting, raised a smile, and asked innocently: "What you said yesterday doesn't count, does it?" ”
Old man He frowned, knocked on the big pipe, and coughed lightly: "Morning, twelve taels is not a small amount, I don't know how to talk as a grandfather, so let's do it, you take out seven taels of silver for your eldest brother to use, you are also a family, your eldest brother has to buy rolls and pen and ink, and the family really can't afford it, you and Chun'er, Sibao, and Qibao are all good children, and your eldest brother will be good in the future." The remaining five taels are enough for the four treasures and seven treasures to go to school! ”
He used a consultative tone, but the look between his eyebrows indicated that it was a deliberate decision.
Old Man He is a very scheming person, so he can't ignore everything else like Old Mrs. He, and directly ask his granddaughter for silver, which is too ugly to hear.
But in the name of Dabao, there is no such problem at all.
He Zao and Dabao are a family, and supporting their families to study is also an agreement they reached yesterday!
He Zao's gaze tightened.
