Chapter 924 The charming husband (4)

Mrs. Zheng got up and went to the cabinet in her room to take out a small cloth bag, which contained some scattered silver taels, took out five taels, and carefully stuffed the cloth bag back.

Looking back, seeing no one saw, Mrs. Zheng covered the old clothes on it, closed the cabinet door, and left the room.

In fact, no one knew that a hole was dug in the corner under Mrs. Zheng's bed, and a small wooden box was buried in that hole, which contained several bank notes, which were all sent back by Su Sanniang, and he secretly saved them.

Among them, the 100 taels used to read to Su Qiruo were inside, but it was well hidden by Mrs. Zheng, so no one knew about it.

Although Mrs. Zheng is illiterate, she is not stupid and knows that all eggs should not be put in the same basket.

The broken silver in the cloth bag is for daily household use, and Mrs. Su also knows it.

On weekdays, the household items handed in by several daughters are also placed there. Although it is used as a public house for the family's livelihood, Zheng's has the final say on how to spend it.

But only Mrs. Zheng knew about the wooden box under the bed, and even Mrs. Su asked, Mrs. Zheng never told her.

Mrs. Zheng came out with five taels of silver in her pocket, and Su Xiaobao was so anxious that she started rubbing her hands.

"Daddy, Daddy, give it to me quickly."

Zheng shoved the silver into Su Xiaobao's hand in pain, glanced out of the yard, and then cursed softly: "You debt collector, you are not allowed to ask for whatever others have in the future."

Now without Su Sanniang's support, their life is not as good as before, how can they live like before.

"Good dad, I knew dad was the best for me."

After getting the money, Su Xiaobao's mouth seemed to be smeared with honey, and he would say all nice things out, coaxing Mrs. Zheng to forget the pain when she took out the money just now, and felt that the children in this world were not as good as his. Xiaobao is filial.

When Su Xiaobao got the silver, he planned to go to the town early the next morning to buy the silver hairpin, and then went to Su Sanlang to see how proud he was in front of him.

Su Qiruo pulled Qiao Nian to settle outside, and after hearing the conversation between the father and son inside, she led Qiao Nian into the yard.

Su Xiaobao tilted his head just in time to see Su Qiruo and Qiao Nian approaching, curled his lips in disdain and rolled his eyes.

Su Qiruo looked over with her cold gaze, and just met Su Xiaobao's white eyes that hadn't been retracted in time, Su Xiaobao was so frightened that his body trembled, and he couldn't help but move towards Zheng Shi.

Although Mrs. Zheng didn't like this granddaughter who hadn't grown up by his side since she was a child, she really didn't dare to offend someone to death all at once.

After all, her maternal grandfather's family is still there, and he still plans to get some benefits from this little nerd Su Qiruo!

Su Xiaobao is spoiled lawlessly by the Zheng family on weekdays, his two elder sisters and brother-in-law dare not offend him, and the juniors in the family let him do everything, but this Su Qiruo never pays attention to him, he is really a little scared this child.

After all, she is a young lady from a noble family who grew up in the capital, even if she is down and out now, she still has the nobility in her gestures.

A person who loves vanity like Su Xiaobao is most afraid of the children of this kind of powerful family, he can't help feeling inferior in his bones.

Mrs. Zheng coughed uncomfortably, secretly glad that the matter of giving money to her son just now hadn't been discovered, otherwise it would have spread, and those sons-in-law might have pushed their daughters and granddaughters to make trouble!

In comparison, this dull gourd's granddaughter is not useless, at least she will not resist no matter how he treats her.

"Ah Ruo, you... the injury on your head is better?"

Because of her guilty conscience, Zheng's speech was a little awkward.

The smile that hung on his face was as fake as it could be.

Su Qiruo raised her hand and touched the wound on her forehead that was neither medicated nor bandaged, and laughed in her heart, this old thing took her 100 taels of silver notes and provided her with food, drink, and reading, even if she didn't even give it to her. She would not be willing to ask a doctor.

Also, if it wasn't for the fact that Mrs. Zheng didn't invite a doctor for the original owner, I'm afraid I wouldn't have passed into the cannon fodder in this book by chance.

"The wound doesn't hurt anymore, but I'm going to take the imperial examination in the future, so I can't leave scars on my face, and I have to ask my grandfather to take some out of my 100 taels of repair silver to buy me some to remove the scars." ointment."

Su Qiruo's tone was calm, but it sounded very irritating to Zheng's ears.

When the money in his hand is reached, he still wants to go back, which is a beautiful idea.

Hearing Su Qiruo's words, Su Xiaobao couldn't help but look at his father.

He did know about the 100 taels of silver, but in order not to allow anyone to make up his mind about the money, his father only said that it was left to Su Qiruo by the third brother-in-law, and no one could touch the money.

It is precisely because they are still afraid of the Lin family who is far away in the capital, even if other people stare at Su Qiruo a few times, they dare not really offend him.

As for the dissatisfaction with Su Qiruo, it is natural to vent all anger on that Qiao Nian.

A servant who was bought by the Su family with money, so what if he hit him a few times and scolded him a few times?

"I see that the wound is not too big, and you are fine now, it will be fine when the wound grows, so don't waste the money."

Zheng shi coaxed without changing his expression, if Su Qi raised any conditions in the past, he would coax them over with such a few words.

"Apart from my Shuxiu and my and Niannian's family, there should be a lot of money left. Those who should honor their grandmothers and grandfathers, you two elders can just take flowers from it, but it won't be just because of buying a scar cream. It's a waste."

100 taels of silver is actually not much for Su Qiruo. In the capital, she and the young daughter of the empress's family would have to pay thousands of taels of silver to go out for a meal, so after the original body handed over the silver to Mrs. thing.

But today's Su Qiruo knows that this 100 taels of silver is something that many people in the country have never seen in their entire lives.

In addition to the 100 taels of silver, shortly before her mother's accident, she also sent back 100 taels of household to Zheng.

Perhaps Su Sanniang guessed that something would happen to her at that time, so she gave Zheng some more.

As usual, Su Sanniang would send 30 taels of silver to her hometown every year to support the two elderly people.

Not much for Su Sanniang, but enough for Mrs. Su and Mrs. Zheng to live like emperors in this countryside.

Su Qiruo remembered that it was written in the book that it was precisely because Su Sanniang knew how greedy this family was that she never sent them extra money every time.

The more you give, the less you can get.

Although outsiders say that Su Sanniang is a scholar who was confessed by the Su family, only the Su family knows best that Su Sanniang has never paid a single penny for Su Sanniang's study, and all those books were earned by Su Sanniang herself by copying books for others. of.
