peasant girl

Chapter 30, holding a kitchen knife and asking Zhu Jinzhi to borrow money
He didn't think about the past, and if he was wrong, he was wrong.

Now he must correct it.

He may be useless, and he may not make a lot of money, but he must act like a father to these children, protecting them from being bullied.

"Xiao Xiao, Hua'er..." Zhu Erlang called out in a low voice.

Zhu Xiao and Zhu Hua'er stopped and looked back at him.

"Father, what's the matter?" Zhu Hua'er asked.

"No, it's okay, let's continue on our way!" Zhu Erlang said in a panic.

Zhu Xiao stared at Zhu Erlang for a moment, then turned around and continued walking.

Zhu Hua'er pursed her lips, and replied, "Oh!" and followed behind Zhu Xiao.

When resting halfway.

Zhu Hua'er just brought out three eggs and handed them to Zhu Erlang, "Father, Uncle Ayang gave us three eggs, and my second sister and I felt that you have worked hard, so here are the eggs for you to eat!"

"..."

Zhu Erlang looked at the egg in front of him.

He looked at Zhu Hua'er, then at Zhu Xiao who was sitting on the side playing with the dog's tail.

An indescribable feeling in my heart.

Try to make yourself smile kindly and lovingly, "You and your second sister can eat, dad doesn't like eggs!"

"..."

Zhu Huaer was surprised.

Why did my father say exactly the same thing as my second sister?
"Father, how about this, you eat two and take the rest home to mother?" Zhu Hua'er suggested.

"Father won't eat it, take them all home, one for your mother, one for your eldest sister, and one for you and your second sister!"

"..."

Zhu Huaer was stunned again.

It's the same.

The second sister is not a fairy, she even divides the eggs in the same way.

"Father, let's take it back and share it and eat together. We are a family, and it tastes better if we eat together. Daddy, don't you think so?" Zhu Huaer asked in a low voice.

Looking at Zhu Erlang with moist eyes.

There seemed to be tears and admiration in the eyes.

In short, while Zhu Erlang felt uncomfortable, he couldn't bear her to be sad.

"Okay, let's go home and eat together. Don't let your grandma and the others know, and you are not allowed to talk about the tiger!"

"Then tell mother?" Zhu Hua'er asked.

"..."

Zhu Erlang hesitated.

Logically speaking, since they are husband and wife, he should trust Mrs. Zhao.

But for some reason, he wanted to hide it for a while.

"Let's talk about it again, let Dad think about it!" Zhu Erlang said softly.

Anyway, he still has to think about it.

The work money was brought back, firstly to appease Mrs. Zhao's heart, and secondly, to let Mrs. Zhao understand that they are a family. He was willing to give her the money in the hope that she would be tough and protect their small family. Several daughters.

The father and daughter continued on their way home.

At home, Lu Shi waited at the door for a long time, saw the father and daughter three, and saw that Zhu Erlang hadn't caught any prey, so he snorted coldly.

"That prey is so easy to hunt? Erlang, listen to your mother and go to work in the town!" Lu urged.

Thinking of Mrs. Zhao running out early in the morning, I don't know where she went?I feel even worse.

"Erlang, it's not mother who said that the children are outrageous, so is Mrs. Zhao. She went out early in the morning and hasn't come back yet. I don't know where she went. Could it be that she went back to her mother's house?"

"..."

"..."

Zhu Xiao and Zhu Hua'er looked at each other.

The two of them immediately went back to the second room with their backs on their backs.

The courtyard was quiet, she put down her belt and went into the house, Zhu Zhaodi was overjoyed when she saw the two younger sisters coming back, "Xiao Xiao, Hua'er, you are back!"

"..." Zhu Xiao pursed her lips.

Zhu Hua'er hurriedly stepped forward, "Elder Sister, have you eaten yet?"

Zhu Zhaodi shook her head, "I'm so uncomfortable, help me to the latrine!"

"..."

Zhu Xiao didn't speak, and Zhu Hua'er helped Zhu Zhaodi to the hut for convenience.

He helped her back to lie down again.

"Have you had lunch yet?" Zhu Xiao asked.

Zhu Zhaodi shook her head slightly.

My mother didn't know where she went, so why would grandma care about her.

Zhu Xiao frowned, "Hua'er, you peeled the eggs and fed them to Eldest Sister. I'll go to the kitchen to see if there's any boiling water. Bring me a bowl of sugar water!"

"Yeah!" Zhu Hua'er nodded obediently, quickly took out the eggs, peeled off small pieces and fed them to Zhu Zhaodi.

Put all the egg shells in your pockets and hide them tightly.

When Zhu Xiao arrived in the kitchen, the brown sugar in the kitchen was already gone.

"Old godmother!"

Zhu Xiao cursed loudly.

There is a shop at the entrance of the village, which sells some things that the family needs, and the villagers around here will come to buy everything.

There is definitely brown sugar too.

But tragically, she was penniless.

Zhu Xiao is sure that Zhu Erlang must have no money in his hands.

His wages must have been given to Mrs. Zhao.

And Mrs. Zhao has been going out since the morning and hasn't come back yet. She guessed that she probably went back to her mother's house.

How can I get money?It doesn't need much, I can buy some candy for Zhu Zhaodi to eat.

Zhu Xiao frowned, Zhu Jinzhi stepped into the kitchen, seeing Zhu Xiao, she shrank in fright and was about to leave.

"Zhu Jinzhi, stop!" Zhu Xiaoshen yelled.

He took the kitchen knife and hid it behind his back.

Zhu Jinzhi trembled in fright, but he didn't dare to go, with one foot inside the threshold and the other outside.

"You, what are you calling me for?" Zhu Jinzhi said softly.

He looked flustered and scared.

Zhu Xiao stepped forward quickly, seeing Zhu Jinzhi dragged into the kitchen, pushed her against the wall, and took out a shining hatchet.

"what……"

Zhu Jinzhi screamed in fright.

Seeing the hatchet sticking to her mouth, Zhu Xiao said heavily, "Shut up!"

What a coward.

Where did the arrogance that bullied people before come from?
"Woooo, I didn't do anything bad, I didn't dare to bully Zhaodi while you were away, I didn't do it!" Zhu Jinzhi cried out in fright.

The whole person was shaking.

She knew that Zhu Xiao could do anything.

"I know, so I didn't scratch your face directly!" Zhu Xiaoxiao said, and patted Zhu Jinzhi's face with a kitchen knife, "Don't cry anymore, I'll discuss something with you!"

"..."

Zhu Jinzhi was taken aback.

He looked at Zhu Xiao defensively.

"Do, do what?"

"You seem to have some money, lend it to me urgently!"

"..."

Zhu Jinzhi's eyes widened.

"Don't worry, I'm just borrowing it, and I'll pay you back when I have money, and I'll give you an extra ten cents as interest, how about it?"

Zhu Jinzhi choked up when he heard it.

It is true that she has dozens of coins, but she has saved them for a long time.

"And if you lend me money, I won't beat you again!" Zhu Xiao said again.

"..."

Zhu Jinzhi hesitated.

Seeing Zhu Xiao's posture, if she doesn't borrow it, Zhu Xiao will definitely punish her.

But I borrowed it, what if Zhu Xiaowan doesn't return it to her?
Seeming to see through Zhu Jinzhi's thoughts, Zhu Xiaodan said quietly, "I swear that I will pay you back. If I don't pay you back, I will be struck to death by lightning. In a word, should I borrow it or not?"

Seeing that Zhu Xiaodu had made a poisonous oath, Zhu Jinzhi thought that Zhu Xiao would never beat her again, "Will you pay me back ten cents more?"

"En!" Zhu Xiao nodded.

Zhu Jinzhi was moved.

Of course I was also afraid of Zhu Xiao.

Zhu Xiao was really ruthless, not only dared to hit her and Jin Hong, but also dared to resist grandpa and grandma, and dared to stab her mother when she saw her.

"Put the kitchen knife away first, and I'll get you the money. I only have 53 Wen in total. You must pay me back!" Zhu Jinzhi couldn't help but said again.

"Go, go, I'll wait for you in the kitchen!" Zhu Xiao put away the kitchen knife and pushed Zhu Jinzhi out of the kitchen.

Let her hurry to get the money.

Although there are only a few dozen coins, you should be able to buy some brown sugar, enough to feed Zhu Zhaodi for a few days.
