Chapter 13 You Are Her Copper Smell

"A few pennies plus scattered silver, a total of 30 taels, one penny is not a lot."

Sun Peifang counted twice to confirm that it was correct and then informed Zhu Wuliu.

Without saying a word, Zhu Wuliu opened the small box and put all the money in it. Just because he doesn't speak doesn't mean he doesn't want to speak.

This is his way of paralyzing himself.

He didn't say a word, and Sun Peifang didn't say a word. They were husband and wife with the same heart, because they were afraid that they would regret it if they took a step forward, and they would regret it if they didn't.

Just go all out.

After all the pretending, Sun Peifang said listlessly: "Father, how long will it take you to go to the city this time? People are poor and rich, and you can't have a penny in your pocket."

Zhu Wuliu didn't raise his eyes to see the tears in his daughter-in-law's eyes, "Don't worry about me, I'll go to the Li Chang's house to borrow a mule cart later, if I leave later, I can arrive in the evening.

You old man and I are very popular, even if I don't open my mouth when I enter the city, my friends will take me home and live.

People in the city eat better than us, and I don’t suffer when I’m with them, so just remember that you don’t lose yourself when you’re at home.

Besides, no matter how bad my situation is, there is still the firewood room of the shopkeeper's house. After a squeeze, I will throw the money at the door of their old Wang's house when I borrow money from them. I will go home after I am done. "

Sun Peifang lowered her head in a low voice.

The box is a jewelry box given by her natal family when she married back then. The top is closed with a copper clasp, and the four sides are tightly seamed, so nothing can be seen.

"Wait a minute."

Zhu Wuliu was stunned for a moment, thinking that his daughter-in-law would regret it.

Her lips trembled and she asked, "What's the matter, daughter-in-law?"

Sun Peifang asked Zhu Wuliu to open the box, turned around, picked up the scissors, and went to the double-door cabinet to tear and cut a cotton dress.

This made Zhu Wuliu anxious, "Why are you prodigal, what are you doing cutting those good clothes?"

"I embroidered this dress when we first got married. I couldn't wear it anymore. I just stuffed the outer fabric into the box."

"What are you doing in it?"

Use it as a small hand towel to wipe his sweat?

There is no sweat in this cold weather.

Sun Peifang gave a "tsk", her eyes were not on the money but on the fabric, she squeezed into the gap of the box, and closed it again without the slightest hesitation.

He let go of his hand and shook, "Listen, is there still sound this time?"

Zhu Wuliu shook his head, and after being reminded, he turned the corner, "Oh, okay, my wife is smart, so no one will know what my thing is if she carries it on her back so silently, it's okay this time, Don’t be afraid of someone thinking about money when you walk.”

"Isn't it?" Sun Peifang hissed and continued: "Our village is the closest to the county seat, and other people from other villages are jealous, but I wonder how it will take two or three hours to get to the foot of the county seat.

Now that the winter is over, no one is going to the city. You enter the city by yourself, let alone the fact that you can enter the city. I am afraid that you will be targeted by the thieves on the road. It's strange if things don't make noise, isn't this on the road deliberately attracting thieves? "

What are you doing?

Lead the snake out of the hole?
The government servants are not so dedicated to catching thieves.

Zhu Wuliu happily put the box in his arms and rubbed it, this time he really wanted to pack it into his bag and carry it away.

Sun Peifang looked at the last corner of the cloth with a hard pimple reluctantly, and her heart was completely empty.

This is money that has not been earned by farming in the past few years. The big and small pieces of silver were embroidered by her stitch by stitch. Sun Peifang smelled the smell of copper in her hand and was reluctant to wash her hands. Sleep with palms clasped.

The mood of the two is very complicated.

There was a knock on the door.

"Father-mother-"

Xibao took Yuanbao and knocked on the door in an orderly manner. After Yuanbao kicked the wooden board crookedly, Sun Peifang criticized him, so he didn't dare to show his tricks casually, but the person inside just pretended not to hear what to do when the small fist the size of a steamed bun hit it.

Zhou Huan was taller than the two of them, so he leaned on the door to listen to the movement through the two sisters.

She swears that if anything goes wrong, she will immediately take the two of them back to the side room. She is not gossiping, it is all for the harmonious life of her uncle and aunt.

Several people yelled at the door for a while, and finally the sound of unlocking came from the ear.

As soon as Sun Peifang opened the door, three beautiful girls lined up from tall to short.

Zhou Huan's bright eyes were full of smiles.

Xibao stood at the door in a dignified manner.

Yuan Bao stared at his little finger as it twirled back and forth.

"What are you doing? Are you calling a ghost?"

The two young ones were confused, how could they blame them for locking the door themselves?

"Okay, I'm leaving, don't talk about the child, come to Dad and give me a hug. After a few days, Dad will come back and bring rice cakes from the city for you to eat."

Hearing this, the two little babies were finally happy.

One said, "Daddy is the best."

Another said, "Favorite Daddy."

Only Sun Peifang felt hesitant after hearing this.

There are still a few children in the family, and they also buy rice cakes. If I have the money, I can order white rice and cook vegetable porridge.

Zhu Wuliu patted the two children hugging their thighs, looked up at Zhou Huan, felt embarrassed when he thought that the child was angry with him, and felt a little proud when he thought that he was going to surprise her soon.

"Then what is Huan'er, you are the eldest sister in this family now, and I won't be able to come back for three or five days after I left, so you stay at home and accompany your aunt well."

Zhou Huan nodded, looked at Zhu Wuliu with a ruddy complexion, and smiled inwardly.

"Don't worry, Uncle, you can rest assured with me at home."

As soon as the words came out, Zhu Wuliu and Sun Peifang were stunned. The child hadn't said a good word to her uncle for two or three days, and the words were always full of guns and sticks. What happened today.

what happened?
The pie of the system really chokes people.

From now on, vote for mulberry and elm, and repay with peaches and plums.

This is the result of Zhou Huan's thinking.

For the sake of her aunt being her biological aunt, she gave Zhu Wuliu this face.

But Zhu Wuliu's little heart is fuzzy: Don't laugh at my niece, the more you look at your smile, the less funny it is.

Gossip less, Zhu Wuliu walked this time with a very solid heart, looking at the warm sun, waving enthusiastically with everyone in front of the courtyard.

In the past, when he wanted to leave the village, he was always worried that he would not be able to sleep for a long time, because he was afraid that someone would bully their mothers, he had to build a good relationship with the neighbors, and he had to entrust the elder's family to take care of him with a smiling face every time before leaving the village.

Don't worry now, there is Zhou Huan, who was sent by his sister to protect his family.

As for Zhou Huan, she still didn't know that she had this responsibility. From the time Zhu Wuliu left to the house before dinner was about to open, she sat on the threshold of the house, staring at the smoke from every house outside.

Waiting for the return of her younger brother Zhou Man.

Always remind yourself that you must learn to love, great love, and fraternity. Just thinking about what you say is useless. Drink a glass of water when you are thirsty, and have a meal when you are hungry. Put love into practice.

Starting today, develop a good habit in 21 days.

Zhou Huan thought this way, wanted to be nice to his younger brother and make him feel warm, but when Zhou Manren came back, she would feel the warmth first.

Because Zhou Man went to the forest to pluck the hairs and brought back a few dried leaves of mother-in-law (dandelion) for his sister.

This was something he was thinking about. When he was in the kitchen in the morning, he saw her sister enter the latrine, and when he came out, he saw her sister was still in the latrine.

"Sister, if you drink this soaked water, it will be good for your stomach, and then, it won't be blocked."

Zhou Man's face blushed, and he leaned into Zhou Huan's ear and spoke in a very low voice, afraid that his sister would be laughed at by the younger sisters.

Zhou Huan's body froze.

The mother-in-law is soaked in water for treatment. . .Don't say anything, her brother really broke his heart because of her.

All right, I accept it.

She lowered her head and didn't know where to look, and suddenly found that her brother was not only sending warmth but also surprises, her eyes lit up again in an instant.

"Eh?"

"Xiao Man, don't move. What is that little thorn ball on your trousers?"
