Happy pastoral sturdy little lady

Chapter 95 Miscalculation 2
No, Liu Xiangchun is here this time, so it will come in handy!
Uncle Tian has been to Shanqian Village twice, and Liu Xiangchun also knows him, and knows that he has a very good relationship with Shuisheng, as close as a brother.I also heard from Yunwu that it was not easy to go up the mountain, and there was no one to take it with me, so I couldn't find Shuisheng's home.So, when she reached the foot of the mountain, she went to Uncle Tian's house first and asked him to help guide her.

"Mom, why are you here? Did something happen at home?"

When Da Ya saw Liu Xiangchun, her face turned pale with fright. Judging by her sad face, something serious must have happened at home.Maybe, my mother still ran away from home!
Since leaving Shanqian Village, Liu Xiangchun has been enduring it all the time. When her daughter asked this question, her tears rushed out as if a gate had been opened.Regardless of the presence of outsiders, she cried so hard that she couldn't restrain it no matter what.From the looks of it, it was a sad and hopeless person who couldn't bear to see it.

As a daughter, Da Ya's heart is even more sour, and she is extremely anxious.Quickly helped her sit on the chair, Er Ya went to pour a glass of cold water with a wink, and opened it, Liu Xiangchun took the glass, raised her head and drank it down.

Then he took the wet towel from his daughter again, wiped away his tears, calmed down a little, and told his daughter with red eyes: "Yue'er, your father is crazy. He took a hoe and dug up the house everywhere." It's all potholed."

"Why?" Erya couldn't help exclaiming, isn't daddy insane?This is not a good thing, no wonder the mother is so sad, the little girl is as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.

"It's not your careless grandma. Your second uncle wrote to her and asked her to ask your father for 3000 taels of silver, saying that it was used for activities and wanted to find an official position as a county magistrate..." Liu Xiangchun In detail, he told the cause of the incident without reservation.

Everyone present was almost stunned after hearing her words.

What?That old woman actually forced her to die?Do you want to go too far, be so confused? !

Er Ya snorted coldly: "Grandma is really stupid. Second Uncle will take her to the post. The premise is that she will help Second Uncle cheat 3000 taels of silver from Dad's pocket. Otherwise, Second Uncle's family will not accept Grandma." We lived together in the past, that is to say, the friendship of the second uncle’s family to grandma is false and piled up with money! I bet that even if the second uncle’s grandma takes grandma over, they will not treat grandma well !"

Shan Cha took over the conversation: "Isn't it? In Shanqian Village, Second Aunt and Mudan treated Grandma very badly, and they didn't take Grandma seriously at all. Now it's OK to go to Second Uncle's appointment ? Anyone who is a fool will know that grandma wants to enjoy the blessing of second uncle, it is just a daydream!"

"It is for this reason that Bai, who has become an official wife, must be even more arrogant. In her eyes, maybe grandma is a burden, a burden, and an ignorant village woman who was deceived by her. I have reason to believe that Even if grandma gets 3000 taels of silver for second uncle, the Bai family may not take grandma over as second uncle!" Da Ya analyzed calmly.

Liu Xiangchun was taken aback by her daughter's words: "No way? Your grandma said that the 3000 taels of silver should be considered as your father's one-time buyout of her pension! From now on, she will follow the old It's not convenient for her to ask your father for money because the mountains are high and the rivers are far away! That's why she dared to hang herself so boldly this time, and even the villagers couldn't blame her too much.

Your father probably thought of this too, and he thought to himself, just agree to her, give her 3000 taels of silver, and take it as a one-and-done deal!If the money was given to her, but Rao's second son didn't pick her up to go with your grandfather, what's the matter?In the future, won't your grandparents have to rely on your father and your fifth uncle?Rao's third and fourth children can't be counted on at all!

no!How can this work? 3000 taels of silver, this is not 30 taels, 300 taels, and there will be no silver from the sky, how can it be so easily given to Rao's second child? If you keep the 3000 taels of silver for your grandparents, if you just live in Shanqian Village, no matter what, if you eat meat every day, you won’t be able to use it up in your next life! "

The big girl agreed deeply, and nodded: "That's right, what mother said is right, this money must not be allowed to go to Rao's second child! Dad is the son of grandparents, or the eldest son, and it should be done if dad takes care of grandparents. However, although the pension fee of 3000 taels is a little too much, if every copper coin is spent on the old man, I will give it to the old man! However, if it is used for Rao’s second son to move the official position, I will definitely not Will agree!"

Da Ya loves money, but she also believes that "a gentleman loves money, and get it in a proper way!" She looks down on those who do not hesitate to trample on their relatives for ill-gotten gains.Similarly, she is considered a very generous person, and the food and drink of the family are all selected.It's not about pursuing expensive things, but that the food must be good, and she won't choose even a little bit of spoiled fruit or vegetables.

As for the things to wear, the focus is on comfort, which is comfortable, simple, elegant and generous.Let's talk about fabrics, she doesn't pursue any brand effect, so she is not uncommon for silk and satin.I have a soft spot for muslin.It's not that she is reluctant to spend money, but that she pays attention to every copper plate and uses it wisely.

Don't waste a single copper plate that should be saved, and she will not be stingy when spending a lot of money.For example, when elder brother and Xiangxi went on a trip, she gave elder brother 3000 taels of silver as soon as she made a move.For the rest of the people, each of them gave more than 100 taels for emergencies.

Closer to home, now let's talk about Rao's second child, Da Ya's attitude is extremely firm.She looked around and expressed her attitude unabashedly: "Giving half a copper coin to Rao's second family, I feel distressed. I think it is a big extravagance and waste, and it is an act of prodigal! Give grandma 3000 taels, let her Giving it to Rao's second child for free is absolutely unacceptable!"

Hearing what her daughter said, Liu Xiangchun felt better.However, what puzzled her was, where did Da Ya put the money?Thinking like this, I couldn't help but asked in public: "Big girl, where did you put the money? In my opinion, it's not very safe. According to your father's crazy way of finding, maybe you can put it away tomorrow." Find the silver! Just before I left, he seemed to be carrying a hoe to dig the jar where you hid the silver on Honeysuckle Mountain!"

Liu Xiangchun also felt that her daughter should have hidden the silver in Honeysuckle Mountain.

"Hahaha!" Da Ya couldn't bear it any longer, she burst into laughter with a "puchi", and comforted her while laughing: "Mother, don't worry, I hid the money in a very secret place! Hmm , let’s put it this way, even if it’s the land lord, he can’t find it! How about it, is it safe enough?”

In fact, before she came to the mountain, she put all the gold and silver, valuable jewelry, and small ornaments in the space.This space is not even the legendary Land Lord, there is no way to enter!As for the 1000 taels of silver notes that Xiang Dong secretly left behind, the big girl had already put them into the space, and was going to put them back there when the big brother came back.

When the elder brother hid the bank notes eastward, unfortunately, he was discovered by the elder sister.At that time, Da Ya was looking for elder brother for something, so she went to his bedroom to find someone.When I walked to the window, I didn't expect to find that my eldest brother was getting under the bed, probably hiding some treasure.

Thinking that it would take two years for eldest brother to come back after leaving, eldest brother took out the 1000 taels of silver hidden by elder brother, as well as dozens of taels of broken silver that elder brother had accumulated, and put them in. in space.

Da Ya couldn't help thinking to herself: Fortunately, I have the foresight, otherwise, big brother's 1000 taels of silver, as well as the dozens of taels of silver he had accumulated so hard, would fall into Pan's hands!Oh, how dangerous! 1000 taels of silver is not a small amount. Right now, the amount of silver she has on hand does not exceed 2000 taels at most!Adding the 1000 taels of big brother, we can barely raise 3000 taels!

Da Ya looked at Mother, and said solemnly: "Mother, in fact, all the money in the family is not even 2000 taels! So, no matter what Daddy says, you should not promise to give grandma any money! Now, apart from the production in the fields, and The chickens, ducks, geese, pigs and fish in the farm, as well as the business with Mo Xiangzhai, have no other income!"

Of course, she didn't say anything about the 1000 taels left by her elder brother, and only her elder brother knew about welcoming guests.The small workshop also closed down long after Xiangxi was admitted as a scholar, and will no longer do it!After all, in this society, the status of scholars, farmers, businessmen, and businessmen is at the bottom.If Xiangxi wants to take the imperial examination, his family members cannot do business, otherwise it will affect his official career.

Let's just talk about Ren Jianli, his father was a third-rank official in the capital, and he was from a wealthy family.It stands to reason that, as a son-in-law, he cannot do business.However, he is a special case, belonging to the exiled children.And the big boss of Ji Cui Lou's face is not the master of the Ren family, but a confidant of Ren Jianli's father.

Hearing her daughter's words, Liu Xiangchun couldn't help being taken aback: "What? You don't have 2000 taels of silver yet? Oh, you girl, in this case, why are you willing to spend more than 3000 taels of silver for your elder brother and the others to travel? Well, the four of you brothers and sisters are not engaged yet, and the dowry for your eldest brother and Xiangxi's wife, as well as the dowry for you and Er Ya, have not been settled yet!"

Da Ya smiled disapprovingly and said, "Mother, what are you worried about? Eldest brother is only 17 years old, Erya is only 11 years old, don't worry, we are still very young! Especially Xiangxi, when he gets a Jinshi, It’s not too late to think about getting married! As for me, I will get married only when I’m full! As for the dowry, there’s only two or three hundred taels of silver, and that’s enough!”

"Hey, you child, you don't know how to be shy. Most of the money in the family is earned by you. How can mother get a dowry of two or three hundred taels of silver?" Liu Xiangchun looked at his sensible daughter, doting on her. Laughed.

Er Ya interrupted and said, "Mother, what Eldest Sister said is quite right, the silver cannot be given to grandma! It's not that there is not much silver, even if the family has tens of thousands of taels of silver, there is no reason to give it to grandma, and then let Rao The second child's family took advantage of it for nothing!"

"That's the reason. If our family has a lot of silver, if the second son borrows it from daddy himself, we can also consider lending it to him! But if you use the old man to threaten you, then I won't give it even a copper coin!" Da Ya's eyes fell on the verdant forest from afar, and she paused every word with an extremely firm attitude.

"Okay, mother knows, no matter what your father says, mother will never compromise!" Liu Xiangchun assured her daughter very seriously, the big deal is to make up with that stupid and loyal man Rao Shouqin!No!Even if he wants to divorce his wife, she will never compromise!

At this moment, she is so righteous and lingran, like a glorious image of a loving mother.She seemed to have forgotten that not long ago, she secretly gave Xiangdong's letter to Ren Jianli, ignoring the wishes of her eldest son Xiangdong, and wholeheartedly wanted to facilitate Ren Jianli and Da Ya.

Da Ya naturally doesn't know about all this, otherwise, she would be so angry that she would jump up and down.However, what should come, after all, cannot be avoided.At some point in the future, she finally knew the truth of the matter, and for a long time, she and the cheap mother drifted away.

Although she hadn't reached the point of renunciation, it was undeniable that the cheap lady's actions had hurt her badly.This kind of spiritual injury did not gradually heal until many years later, and she re-accepted this mother who made her love and hate.
