Chapter 17

Li Cuicui's eyes glowed as she looked at the big basket behind them, which was not there before entering the city.

"Is this done?"

Gu Wenheng's face was full of joy, "It's done, finally you don't have to starve anymore."

Li Cuicui slapped him on the back, "What are you talking about? You're not conspicuous enough."

As the old lady spoke, she looked around and found that many people were already poking their heads, and several sons and daughters-in-law were also coming here.

She didn't ask at all, just spread her palms in front of Gu Wenheng, raising her voice high, "Since you went to the pawnshop to pawn things, quickly return the copper plates you borrowed, I didn't see your brothers and sisters-in-law. They're all watching."

"Yo, I don't know what our Seventh is going to be? It's not a Tongsheng official document that hasn't been covered, right?" Wang Caiyue covered her mouth and smiled exaggeratedly, just like the poor and sour couple of the Seventh, I guess it's just that one Paper is valuable.

Now that the two are finally back, she is also in the mood to ridicule.

Jin Qianqian covered her mouth and smiled, "Second sister-in-law, at least my husband is more or less famous. Even if it's an official document, many people can't dream of it."

Seeing the other party's unconvinced appearance, Jin Qianqian then sighed with regret, "Alas, it's a pity that the family has surplus money, and some people may not be able to expect it."

"you……"

Just as Wang Caiyue started, she was interrupted by Wang Cuicui's voice, "If you have a lot of things to do, shut up if you can't speak. You can't expect your family to be better."

One by one, the wings have grown hard, and there is no wink at all.

Gu Wenheng was full of joy, recalling how Jin Qianqian called him. The girl admitted the relationship between the two of them. Listen, how beautifully the word "Xiang Gong" is called.

"You should hurry up and return the old lady's money." Li Cuicui didn't understand why the good son suddenly laughed so wretchedly, but that didn't stop her from reaching out for money.

Gu Wenheng was in a good mood, and he didn't care that she spoiled the atmosphere here. He still took out two silver horns and quickly stuffed them into her hands, "I said that I would double it back, and these are regarded as my son's filial piety."

After she finished speaking, she didn't forget to wink at the old lady, so scared that Li Cuicui didn't dare to let go of her hand, she turned her back and glanced secretly, then she widened her eyes and looked back at her son, wanting to confirm again.

Gu Wenheng nodded cooperatively, "You can keep it at ease, your son won't be hungry, and you won't be hungry either."

The rest of the Gu family are very curious about what the mother and son are playing dumb, and what did the old seventh give just now?
However, the others who were more shrewd all exchanged glances secretly, and what Lao Qi gave to the old lady was definitely not a piece of copper.

Gu Yuanshui stared directly at the back basket that Gu Wenheng was carrying, "Seventh, what did you carry when you entered the city? You have made a fortune, but don't forget your brothers."

Gu Wenheng, "Look at what the third brother said, we are all the same now, and it is impossible for us to protect ourselves, or else I wouldn't tighten my belt for so many days, and dare not come forward to ask a few brothers for help.

This is not because he was forced to a dead end, and then he gritted his teeth and became something handed down by the ancestors of the Jin family.

I thought I could exchange more money to accompany me, but who knew that in addition to returning the money I borrowed from my mother before, I would also have such an extra bag of food.

If a few elder brothers and sisters-in-law like it, then each of them will scoop a bowl back, which is also my little brother's intention. "

Jin Qianqian gave him a thumbs up secretly. Seeing how beautiful this was said, he broke down the matter of borrowing money from the old lady, hurt several other brothers, and cried poor again.

As the eldest, Gu Yuanjin also has the most food in the family. He didn't lend a helping hand to Seventh before, and now it's even more impossible, and he doesn't have the face to get anything from him.

He took the lead and shook his hand, "We're just worried about you. Since we've exchanged food, we'll save a little in the future. There's still a long way to go."

"Understood," Gu Wenheng saw that the others were still unwilling to leave here, so he simply lifted the back basket and showed the rice bran in a burlap bag in front of everyone.

"This thing is deadly expensive now. In the past, the yellow rice couldn't match its current price. I also gritted my teeth to get it back. If you guys like it, then each of you will bring some back. How much? At least it's our heart."

Gu Yuanjin and the others also got the news from the people who entered the city earlier. The further back they go, the less food they can buy.

It's a pity that the city gate is now closed, and tomorrow the entire team is in a hurry to hurry, or these people want to leave some way for themselves.

In this way, there are fewer and fewer places that allow refugees to enter the city. This also makes many people regret it now, and they are thinking of talking to the leader of the team and seeing if they can stay here for one more day.

When the other sisters-in-law saw the rice bran, their eyes flashed ridicule, and even Hong Daya disapproved and pulled Jin Qianqian aside, "You two are so stupid, why do you have to go in with two people? , it is enough to buy some more food and last for some time.”

Everyone is not optimistic about this bag of rice bran, even if it is mixed with wild vegetables, it will not last long.

Gu Yuanhuo was still thinking about another thing, "Lao Qi, what did you bring? Do you have a lot of money on your hands?"

Everyone's attention was drawn back all of a sudden, and they all silently calculated an account in their hearts. Seeing that the old lady was still there, she could guess that she must have taken a big advantage this time.

There is also the old seventh wife holding a raw cloth package in her hand, and she doesn't know what else is inside.

"Yeah! Seventh younger brother and sister, what's in it? Seeing that you are so precious all the time, let your sister-in-law open her eyes!" The husband and wife followed, and Li Xiaohua also stared at Jin Qianqian, the old seventh really made a fortune, look With the bulge in this bag, there must be a lot of things inside.

Jin Qianqian looked shyly at her sister-in-law who was beside her, "It's not because the clothes on my body are tattered. My husband loves me and bought me two sets of burlap."

"What? Are you buying clothes besides bran?" Li Xiaohua took a deep breath, "This is something you shouldn't eat or drink, it's a waste of money, and every piece of writing has to be used on the edge of a knife, how is it like you? loser."

Jin Qianqian pointed at Gu Wenheng, "This is all Xianggong's idea, and I can't beat him."

In this dynasty where the husband is the god, the two have also discussed it, and Gu Wenheng is the scapegoat of the two of them.

"You, you," Li Cuicui also resented that iron is not steel, "this is what you bought from your dowry, you should be the master of it, the seventh is a big man, and you have no habit of being in charge, you How can it be left to him?

The days after this are still long. With such a big hand, your dowry will be squandered sooner or later. "
