Chapter 53: Our Decision
After laughing and cleaning up the messy tables, chairs and benches, the whiteboard also consciously and voluntarily opened his phantom bag, poured out the silver tickets and silver that had been pretended to be stuffed in before, and pushed them in front of Chang Dieyu.
"Butterfly girl, this is the harvest just now, for you, Zhihao's shoes and me, please leave it to you!"
changed his previous "disdainful" face, and in a blink of an eye, the whiteboard changed his clothes to please the dog's legs, wagging his tail, and rubbing and rubbing on his usual butterfly arms, "Zhihao's shoes are in a hurry, I'm okay, it doesn't matter later, anyway, in general, I don't walk by myself......"
"Okay!"
Chang Die happily agreed, put the silver that the whiteboard "handed over" to her into the cloth pocket hanging on the table, padded the weight, and handed it to Qi Mengchu who was standing next to her, "In a while, I'll go to the backyard to find a shoe sample, and I'll make it for the two of you!"
Qi Mengchu is a standard good wife and mother, of course, except that her temperament is a little wild.
Adhering to the lesson passed down by the ancestors of "strict raising children and pampering daughters", Qi Mengchu can be said to be absolutely generous and spoiled enough for Chang Dieyu, the only girl under his knees...... So, for things like money, she can say that she doesn't have much of a concept...... If there is more money and less money, it is good to have enough, not to mention, Qi Mengchu will never wait until she has no money in her hand to ask for herself, and then he will find a reason to pay it to her?
Promised the whiteboard, received "benefits", and helped it make shoes with Gao Zhihao, to put it bluntly, it was a gimmick, she was a girl who had not been out of the cabinet, and made shoes for someone who was not her husband, what kind of system!
Of course, if it's paid...... Ahem, that's easy to say!
More than 60,000 taels of silver is not a small amount, although many of them are silver tickets, but there are still a lot of broken silver.
Start and sink.
The arc of the corners of Qi Mengchu's lips was also slightly obvious, this girl, she really dared to open her mouth, so much silver, in exchange for someone else's one person and one beast to make shoes, this ...... If you calculate it according to the market price, you may not be able to finish it for a lifetime!
"You can use these! Your mother's stubborn woman who can't even drag eight cows has stuffed things into me all these years! I don't lack silver here!"
Speaking of Ji Haihan, Qi Mengchu instinctively sighed, his arm was slightly forced, and he threw the cloth bag that Chang Dieyu had just handed over to her hand, and threw it back to Gao Zhihao, "She said all day long that the pills she fed those spirit beasts were all worthless things...... I'm not stupid, I can't buy anything, and I can't ask about the price? A dozen spirit beasts, a dozen mouths to eat, even if you have a mountain of gold at home, it is not enough for her to feed it so every day......! Butterfly said that his father, his body is not good, and it is rare to have his rare things, so I thought...... If you can fulfill him, you will fulfill him, but I didn't expect that this toss will toss a person as big as you, I ...... Me too......"
"My mother has always been an anxious person, and if she recognizes one thing, she can go all the way to the black, Yue ...... Ahem, don't think too much about it, auntie, just think she likes those spirit beasts in the first place!"
Zhang Kou wanted to be the "mother-in-law" with the just called Qi Mengchu, but before the first word came out, he felt that something was wrong, and the three media and six hires had not yet been hired, so he ...... Wouldn't it seem like he was too ......
"You still call me aunt? Just now, didn't I lose my butterfly girl to you? Why, you want to regret it before you even blink an eye?!"
Qi Mengchu was not a reserved woman, but at this time, she has grown up again, so she is naturally even more unscrupulous, and when she heard Gao Zhihao call her "aunt", she immediately laughed and joked about him, "My family is a butterfly, but a famous beauty in the Windy City, if you regret it, I won't worry about ......."
"Mother-in-law is on top, don't look for Zhihao to be happy, Zhihao ......"
Being teased by Qi Mengchu like this, Gao Zhihao immediately blushed, and hurriedly lowered his head, and softened with her "old man", "Zhihao just thinks that these three media and six hires have not been hired, so it is a bit rude and a little ...... to call it so."
"I don't think you're rude, who dares to think you're rude?! Don't worry, he has to listen to me!"
Qi Mengchu smiled and turned his head, and rushed to stand beside her, blushing no less than Gao Zhihao's Chang Dieyu, and also joked with bad intentions, "Alas, Dieyu girl, are you still here?! I thought you had gone back to the backyard and made shoes for the two of them! Go, go, the shoes are on the kang in my house, and by the way, tell your father, Zhihao is here, let him make the morning meal for Zhihao and the whiteboard!"
was so "squeezed" by his mother, how could Chang Dieyu be embarrassed to stay?
hurriedly answered, looked up, and peeked at Gao Zhihao again, before turning around and running into the backyard...... After running two steps, I remembered that I forgot to take the basket and had to run back with a red face, and after carrying the basket on the ground, I sped up and "escaped"!
Seeing Chang Dieyu's back disappear behind the curtain, Qi Mengchu turned to look at Gao Zhihao with a smile, called him to help him, and continued to clean up the tables, chairs and benches in the gambling house.
Just now, when Chang Dieyu was in front of her, she almost talked about Chang Dewang, but fortunately she reacted quickly enough, and when she got to the critical place, she took it away, and at this moment, only she and Gao Zhihao were left in the room, and naturally, it was much easier to speak.
"I originally thought that Dieyu's father wouldn't last long, so I thought selfishly, work hard for your mother for a few years, let her help feed those spirit beasts that Dieyu's father was a baby, and give him more joy in the few days left...... That kind of pain, one end, is more than ten years!"
Speaking of Chang Dewang, Qi Mengchu's face instinctively showed distress, her husband, for the sake of their children, endured much more than her mother, "At first, I didn't know that the spirit beast pill was such a precious thing, I just thought that she and your father were both from Xianglong Town, and it was a matter of blinking your eyelids to get that thing, and later, I was shocked when I heard others talk about the price...... Two hundred taels a day, a year, that's more than 70,000 taels, not counting the spirit beast Neidan that she brought every once in a while to give those spirit beasts a tooth sacrifice!"
"At that time, the Changjia gambling house was just a small gambling house, a day's income, that is, more than three hundred taels of silver, just with me and Dieyu her father, I couldn't afford to raise those 'little ancestors' in the backyard, at that time, Dieyu was only born not long ago, like her father, she also had an ancestral strange disease. β
There were only Qi Mengchu and Gao Zhihao left in the room, and when she spoke, she relaxed a lot, far less cautious than when Chang Dieyu was there just now, "Your mother said, Dieyu girl's bones are good, you can practice Taoism, if you are lucky, maybe you can suppress this strange disease and prevent it from attacking, I discussed it with Dieyu's father, and I felt that there was no better way, waiting, but also waiting for death, it is better to let her give it a try...... Except for the one that grew up when she didn't practice, the red dots never increased! Although she has never been able to reach the realm of Qi cultivation that your mother said, in the eyes of me and her father, this is already good enough! Birth, old age, sickness and death, everyone has it, she can not die unexpectedly, and can go through her life safely and smoothly, we are already completely satisfied!"
It is extremely difficult to lead mortals into the Tao, and the place where mortals gather in Windy City, where the traffic is busy, and the aura is not easy to gather, and the quiet place of Xianglong Town is completely incomparable.
Thinking of this, Gao Zhihao finally understood that his family's silver was spent by his mother.
His father is said to be a well-known "rune master" in various countries , Even if it is now when there is no war, the income from the national income and talisman that can be received in a month can also be thirty or forty thousand taels, his mother Ji Haihan, it is said that even the dragon beast can surrender to the tame, to the worst, should be able to get more than 10,000 taels in his hand, an ordinary spirit beast pill, full of calculations, five taels of silver, fourteen spirit beasts, a spirit beast eats three a day, that is, two hundred and ten taels of silver, a year, but less than eighty thousand taels of silver, two months of money for the two of them, it is enough, how is it possible, let the family be so poor, so poor that they can't even repair the house, and they don't have to eatοΌ
At this moment, listening to Qi Mengchu's words, Gao Zhihao completely understood!
Ji Haihan, his mother, spent all the family's money on Chang Dieyu, to help her practice qi and enter the Daomen, help her resist strange diseases, and help her survive!
"Although this gambling house was run by me and Dieyu's father, if it weren't for your mother, it would never be as big as it is now. β
Seeing that Gao Zhihao had been staring at the corner of the table in front of him in a daze, without saying a word, Qi Mengchu understood that this was the first time he had heard of it, Ji Haihan's stubborn woman was really ...... That's it, it's all in the past, the old accounts, don't turn it over, "I and Dieyu's father, it's just Dieyu such a child, and after so many years, there is no one in the family...... We have already discussed, when you and Dieyu get married, this gambling house will give her a dowry, no more, just a part of our old couple......"
"I have misunderstood my mother for many years, and I have regarded her as a bad gambler by hearsay, and I have been angry with her and quarreled with her, and now it seems that I am really too ignorant. β
Thinking of Ji Haihan, Gao Zhihao couldn't help but smile bitterly, his mother, but he is really a stubborn person, for so many years, no matter how he misunderstood, how he was angry with her, and he didn't explain, perhaps, there was something he didn't know about it, for example, how did she know the Chang family, why did she have to be so good to the Chang family......
By now, the cause and the like are no longer important, from now on, he will definitely double his compensation to her, no longer be angry with her, no longer quarrel with her, no longer ......
