Chapter 125: The One Hundred and Twenty-Fifth Day of Becoming an Old Lady
Boss Hu, who was like a dead fish, was carried home by the old lady, but fortunately he didn't meet anyone along the way, otherwise Boss Hu's reputation would have been ruined!
"Mother?"
The Hu family, who heard the movement, was stunned, why was the eldest brother beaten by the old lady again?
"Put him in the firewood room, and he won't eat today."
The old lady beat Boss Hu and didn't lose her anger, she said that there was a filial son under the stick, she beat and scolded, why didn't Boss Hu grow at all?
Did she make a mistake?
The old lady sighed and went back to the house listlessly.
Boss Hu was still lying on the ground, and the old lady ordered him to be locked up in the firewood room.
Several younger siblings looked at each other and beckoned Hu Laosan and Hu Baozhu to carry people into the firewood room.
Although Boss Hu's beating was not as heavy as the previous few times, because the old lady whipped him with a branch, Boss Hu dodged and dodged, and the branch was unforgiving, and he was hit several times on the face. The red scars are clearly visible, and Boss Hu has no fig leaf.
He poured on the firewood, touched the scars on his face, and grinned.
It's too ruthless, it's too ruthless!
Boss Hu couldn't hold back his tears, the old lady beat him so hard, he wondered if this was his stepmother.
It seems that all of a sudden, the old lady who used to love him so much has changed person. The favor is gone, and it is all beaten.
Woo woo, he's so miserable!
"Squeak."
The door of the firewood room was opened, and Boss Hu broke the jar and broke it, and he didn't get up or wipe his tears, so that the other party could clearly see his embarrassment.
The person who came in was Hu Baozhu, and she brought gold sore medicine and cotton cloth to wipe Boss Hu's wounds.
"Big brother, it's cold on the ground, let's put on a mattress."
Hu Baozhu carefully laid out the cover for Boss Hu, and held his arm to let him lie in another place.
The firewood room has no windows, and it is close to the kitchen, and Hu Yan'er's dim sum does not stop working all day and night, resulting in a stuffy and impenetrable firewood room. On an April day, it's already hot after a while.
Boss Hu had teary eyes, grabbed Hu Baozhu's arm and wailed:
"Pearl, woo woo woo ......"
He was beaten by the old lady again, and he was beaten very hard.
Hu Baozhu had never seen Boss Hu cry before he was eighteen years old, and he could see him almost every few days when he was eighteen years old. The majesty of the eldest brother disappeared in her eyes, and the current Boss Hu is a poor little old man.
The clothes are messily dressed, and the appearance of the cloak is still the high-spirited Xiucai Gong before?
Hu Baozhu sighed and helped him sit on the mattress. Boss Hu couldn't stop crying, and she comforted her softly:
"Love is deeply responsible, and my mother is too anxious......"
"She's so ruthless! Look at my face, how do I go out to meet people. ”
Boss Hu rolled up his sleeves and let Hu Baozhu see the injuries on his body. It's just that there are injuries on his body, look at his face, his broken appearance!
Hu Baozhu wanted to say in his heart:
If he hadn't hidden, it wouldn't have been. The old lady had never slapped him in the face a few times before.
Hu Baozhu carefully wiped his wounds, smeared gold sore medicine, and looked at his back again. The scabs on the wounds from the previous beatings have all fallen off, revealing blood-red skin. This time there was a new wound on the blood-red skin, and although it was a little more terrifying, it was only a flesh wound.
She knew that the old lady was measured.
The more Boss Hu thought about it, the more angry he became, and when he saw Hu Baozhu's gentle appearance, he had a plan in his heart.
He's going to get the old lady in some trouble!
"Zhu'er, Zhang Yuanwai asked me to bring you a dowry of five thousand taels of silver."
Boss Hu didn't shout at this time that the wound was painful, his eyes were shining, and his voice was telling Zhang Yuanwai's goodness.
"Five thousand taels!" Hu Baozhu exclaimed in surprise and quickly covered his mouth.
Her heart was pounding, and she looked at Boss Hu in surprise, in disbelief.
Five thousand taels, why are there so many?
Although the old lady said that the Zhang family would give a double dowry, the Hu family would definitely not be able to take out a dowry of 2,500 taels. The bride price that the old lady gave her before was only one hundred taels, even if the family earned money to add makeup to her these days, it was enough to support her to die of one thousand taels. But the Zhang family paid five times the bride price to marry her, so sincere, Hu Baozhu can only be grateful.
Zhang Yuanwai's generosity also made Hu Baozhu believe that this was a good relationship, and there was no store in this village, so she had to grasp it.
Hu Baozhu was overjoyed, and Boss Hu poured a basin of cold water on his head:
"It's a pity that they were all snatched away by the old lady!"
Why was the silver given to Hu Baozhu by Zhang Yuanwai snatched away by the old lady, Hu Boss knew that he had no hope of regaining the silver, so let Hu Baozhu make trouble.
If an old lady beats her son, does she want to beat her daughter too?
Boss Hu looked at Hu Baozhu expectantly, expecting her to snatch the silver back. is different from what Boss Hu thought, Hu Baozhu originally thought that the dowry belonged to her mother's family. Whether it is the eldest sister-in-law, the second sister-in-law, or the third sister-in-law, all their dowries are left in their parents' homes.
Why is she special?
Besides, the old lady also prepared a dowry for her. Although he was hungry for five thousand taels of silver, Hu Baozhu was not stupid enough to do that.
"My mother also prepared a dowry for me." Seeing that Hu Lao was very angry, Hu Baozhu persuaded him to dissipate his anger.
How can Boss Hu be angry?
"You still don't get it?" Hu Lao jumped to his feet in a grand manner, "The silver is not yours if you don't get it, no matter how nice she says, it will be for nothing if she doesn't give it to you." ”
He is a bloody example, he said that he saved two thousand taels of silver for him, but the old lady turned her head and gave the silver to the Qin family. This is not counting, husband and wife are one, and the silver given to the Qin family is equivalent to giving it to him. However, he didn't want to give the silver to the Qin clan at all.
And his two thousand taels of silver flew like that.
Pushing himself and others, Boss Hu is worried that Hu Baozhu's dowry will also fly away inexplicably.
"Won't it?" Hu Baozhu hesitated slightly, as soon as she opened an opening, Boss Hu took advantage of the weakness to enter.
"How could it not!"
He asked Hu Baozhu to think about him, and think that his silver flew away like this.
"Anyway, think about it, big brother is all for you."
Boss Hu put on a heartbroken look, he didn't force Hu Baozhu to make a choice, anyway, he was a complete example.
Coming out of the firewood room, Hu Baozhu's heart was finally affected.
The kitchen was busy in full swing, and Hu Yan'er's dim sum business was booming, so she not only made it herself, but also brought Hu Yueer and Zhang Fengshi to do it together. The three of them packed the kitchen to the brim, and they all delayed eating.
However, the old lady is used to it, and no one can say anything.
Hu Yan'er's dim sum business is doing so well, she should have made a lot of money. But the old lady said that she didn't care about the money the children earned, and she didn't allow others to worry about it.
Don't look at Hu Yan'er's young age, she has saved enough dowry for herself.
That's good.
Hu Baozhu looked towards the kitchen, and happened to be looked at by Hu Yan'er, she glanced at it, and turned to leave.
The matter of the halva recipe caused Hu Baozhu and Hu Yan'er to have a grudge, and every time they saw Hu Baozhu, they took the lead in leaving, without even saying a word. No one noticed the undercurrent between them, but the two knew each other.
"Milk, that's what Uncle said. He's broken. ”
Tie Niu held a freshly baked lotus cake in his hand, shyly on his little belly, and said it word by word.
He is the old lady's little correspondent, and he is sent to eavesdrop on the conversation between Boss Hu and Hu Baozhu.
Boss Hu replied inexplicably, he said that he was here to give a dowry, but the dowry was not to hide from the old lady to meet Hu Baozhu alone. The old lady sent the iron bull to investigate, just in case.
