"Fourth brother...... Are you stupid? Why don't you speak? ”

Seeing that Gong Qianyu didn't react for a long time, Gong Qianlin pushed his arm.

"She buys and eats, no matter what her purpose is, only when she is full can she have the strength to compete with her."

Gong Qianyu said and picked up a piece of pastry and took a bite.

and gave each of the two younger brothers a piece.

"The fourth brother is right, only when you are full will you have the strength to kill the poisonous woman, if she dares to sell us again, I will blow her head with a stick."

There are not many pastries, one for each of the three brothers, and there is one left.

You can't blame Gu Zining for buying less.

I really don't have the money to buy much.

A piece of cake costs eight yuan, and four yuan is thirty-two yuan. Fifty-two wen a catty of polished rice, she said that fifty wen bought ten catties, oil cost four hundred wen a catty, she didn't dare to buy too much so she bought half a catty, salt is more expensive, eight hundred wen a catty, bought one tael, these add up to almost one tael of silver.

Gong Qianrin finished eating a piece of his hand, reached out to take the remaining piece, and as soon as his hand stretched out, another hand was faster than him.

"This piece belongs to the sister-in-law, and I want to leave it for the sister-in-law to come back and eat."

Among the six brothers, only the youngest Gong Qiannuo will call Gu Zining his sister-in-law.

Gong Qianlin's outstretched hand paused, and his eyes were full of inquiry when he looked at Gong Qiannuo.

What's going on with Xiao Qi today? Always helping that poisonous woman?

The pastries should also be kept for her.

Meeting Gong Qianrin's gaze, Gong Qiannuo explained: "Sister-in-law bought four pastries and didn't keep them for her, she must know that we ate them, what if she comes back to beat us?" ”

I feel that what Gong Qiannuo said makes sense.

But there's nothing weird about him.

"After the pastry, I'll rest early, and I'll go out."

After all, Gong Qianyu is older and thinks a lot.

No matter in the future, now, as she said, you have to pay back the money you owe to others first.

There are only two acres of land left in the family, and if they don't pay back the money they owe to the villagers, they will have to pay for their land.

How can they survive without land?

Dad, mother, and eldest brother are all buried like this, where should they go when they leave here?

Gong Qianyu silently counted the amount of money owed in her heart.

It's a total of eight taels and three dollars.

He took the silver left by Gu Zining on the table and counted it.

"Fourth brother, do you really believe the words of the poisonous woman? You took her money, and she came back to us, what should we do? ”

Gong Qianrin opened his mouth worriedly, but he also said it with his mouth, and his hand was very honest to help count the copper plates.

"Believe it or not, it is a fact that our family owes money to the villagers, she is willing to give it, we will take it and pay it back, and then she asks us for silver, the big deal is to write an IOU to her, you can't owe the money to everyone in the village and not pay it back! Now is the time when the farm is busy, the seeds and fertilizers in the field have to spend silver, and no one has enough money, and the big guy still lent us for the sake of the dead eldest brother, and now it has been half a year, and it is time to pay it back. ”

Counting the money, Gong Qianyu wrapped it in a piece of cloth and repaid the money door to door in the moonlight.

"Fourth brother, I'm with you."

"No need. After a day's walk, you sleep with Xiao Qi at home first, and I'll be back in a while. ”

Gong Qianyu refused, and Gong Qianrin followed.

Gong Qianrin had no choice but to go back to the house, boil water, wash his hands and feet with Gong Qiannuo and sleep.

Gu Zining dragged a large bundle of wicker back in the middle of the night.

The house was pitch black.

She went to the window and listened for a while, but instead of hearing the sound of thunder from the Five Organs Temple in the house, she heard a few sounds like a pig eating and chirping.

The corners of Gu Zining's mouth rose unconsciously, and a sense of relief and pleasure appeared on her face.

Keeping them well fed is a solution.

Next, they had to save money to take them to the town to rent a house.

She has always known about the money owed by her family, and she also knows that ten taels of silver bought rice and noodles to pay off the debt, and it is almost gone.

Leave hot water in the pot.

Gu Zining simply washed up.

She wanted to take a bath, but the conditions didn't allow it.

As soon as I entered the hall, a small figure came out of the next room, holding a piece of pastry in his hand.

Looking at the pastry in his hand, Gu Zining was about to reach out and touch his head, but seeing him shrinking back in horror, she took the pastry in his hand and put it in her mouth instead.

"Go to sleep! Don't cook mine tomorrow morning, I'll eat in the city and come back. Don't be reluctant to eat the rice you bought, and buy it after your sister-in-law finishes eating. ”

After explaining tomorrow's affairs, Gu Zining went back to the room.

The taste of the pastry is average, and it is sweet.

She doesn't really like to eat.

But thinking of that little figure, she still swallowed it.

The sky was slightly bright, and Gu Zining put the recovered yellow eel into a bucket, and there were more of them today than yesterday.

She also had a whim, and when she got down the fish basket, she made a few drops of water in the stone bowl of the space and dropped them on the earthworm.

The effect is unexpectedly good.

When she put away the fish basket, she only felt heavy.

Five fish baskets are estimated to have five or six catties of yellow eel and more than half a catty of loaches.

Looking at the loaches, Gu Zining touched her chin, thinking that she would go to Yipinju later, and sell another recipe for making loaches to Huo Tingge.

Yesterday, I told Huo Tingge that the seasonings and side dishes in his kitchen were a little insufficient.

I don't know how he made it up?

I flipped the bucket in my hand, and it felt a little heavy.

The smile on the corner of Gu Zining's mouth deepened, as if she saw Qian Qian waving at her.

When she left the village, there were already people in the village who were working in the fields one after another.

When they saw her, they all looked at her out of the village with strange eyes.

After walking for a while, Gu Zining vaguely felt that someone was following her.

When she looked back, she didn't see anything.

Lotus Village walked to Linshui City for less than an hour and a half.

Until it was dark.

Gu Zining finally saw who was sneaking behind her.

"You're not sleeping at home, what are you doing with me?"

On the side of the road, Gu Zining asked Gong Qiannuo, who was following her.

Gong Qiannuo was an arm's length away from Gu Zining, lowered his head and did not speak, worried in his heart.

He was struggling with whether to tell her, and he was worried that she would get lost, so he secretly followed behind.

Yesterday, she took the wrong road several times, but the fourth brother reminded her, he was afraid that there was no fourth brother today, and she went wrong again.

looked at the little uncle with his head down like a frightened little beast.

Gu Zining slowed down and couldn't help but think about teasing her.

"Are you afraid that I will go to Linshui City and never go back? So they stalked me secretly in the back. ”

Hearing Gu Zining misunderstand herself, Gong Qiannuo was anxious.

"No, it's not. I'm afraid that my sister-in-law will get lost and won't find her way home. ”

Gong Qiannuo's words were very quiet, and he still looked timid.

Gu Zining smiled.

"Aren't you afraid that I'll sell you again when I go home?"

Gong Qiannuo thought about Gu Zining's words, raised his head after half a sound, and his malnourished little face was resolute after struggling.

"Sister-in-law sells us, can you sell me?"

"Why?"

"Because I'm the youngest in the family, and the most useless. The second brother can farm, the fourth brother can write, and the sixth brother has great strength. ”

"And then?"

Gu Zining pretended not to know and turned her face to look at Gong Qiannuo.

Gong Qiannuo was speechless for a while, and her mind went blank.

"Huh!"

Gu Zining chuckled.

"Don't worry! I'm not going to sell you at the moment, but ......"

"Xiao Qi will definitely be very obedient and obedient. Sister-in-law don't sell her brother, if you want to sell them, sell Xiaoqi. ”

Gong Qiannuo was frightened, his little face was pale, and his eyes were full of tears.
