Pastoral little master

Chapter 218
The so-called honesty is disgusting.

Qiduo's words made Mrs. Zhao extremely annoyed.

But Mrs. Zhao is not a coward. Thinking carefully about Qiduo's words, it really makes sense.

So, in the end, she just cursed a few words, and then left without embarrassing Qiduo too much, let alone being rude.

Of course, when scolding Qiduo, Tan Dejin and his wife were also scolded by the way.

"Your grandma should have listened to what you said." Xu said thoughtfully, although she was scolded a few times, she was not angry.

After all, Mrs. Zhao is an elder, and it is natural for her to lose face if Qiduo, a junior, pointed out her shortcomings like this, so how could she not be annoyed.

So tonight, Qiduo and her parents could understand Zhao's scolding a few words, but didn't take it to heart.

Tan Dejin looked at Qiduo, his eyes were full of gratitude, "Duo, if your aunt can get better in the future, she should be very grateful for what you said today."

Then he continued with some guilt, "Oh, I wanted to say something to your grandma a long time ago, but I was afraid of her scolding, so I didn't dare to say it. Now that I think about it, I really don't want to think about it. Your sister-in-law is my sister. Brother is also responsible for educating her. Compared with you in this regard, father is not as good as you."

Qiduo shook her head lightly, "Father, you are too serious. You can't write two words of Tan in one stroke. No matter whether we are separated or not, we and grandma will always be one family. I don't want my sister-in-law to become a joke of the Tan family village in the future. Then we will be ashamed to follow.”

"Duo, you are right." Mrs. Xu agreed.

"Father, mother, I still want to wait for all the properties of our family to stabilize and produce results, and then help my grandparents to make a fortune together. Although I can't be as rich as my ancestors, at least I will Let's live a prosperous life together." Qiduo expressed her thoughts.

Of course, this is just an idea, as to whether it can be realized, it depends on the subsequent development.

First of all, you have to get rich first, so that you can drive Mr. Tan and the others to get rich, otherwise everything is empty talk.

Tan Dejin was very moved by Qiduo's words, which was exactly what he thought.

Here, Qiduo and her parents are thinking about the future, and as soon as Mrs. Zhao came home, she immediately knocked on the door of Tan Guihua's room.

After knocking for a long time, the sound of Suo Suo putting on shoes came from the room.

The door opened with a creak, and Tan Guihua asked with sleepy eyes, yawning, "Mom, what's the fuss in the middle of the night?"

Seeing her daughter's lazy appearance, Mrs. Zhao felt panicked when she thought about Qiduo's words.

In the past, I was so focused on finding someone to find a husband's family for Tan Guihua, I always wanted to bow my head to marry a daughter-in-law and raise my head to marry a daughter. The woman did not worry about marrying, and forgot to train Tan Guihua.

On weekdays, people outside and inside always praised Tan Guihua in front of her. If she praised too much, the fake became real. She couldn't help but feel a little flustered, forgetting how much Tan Guihua weighed.
Now Qiduo's words were like a slap in the face, which completely woke her up.

After waking up, Mrs. Zhao couldn't help sweating all over her clothes.

Yes, who would want to marry Osmanthus fragrans with such virtues?
Mrs. Zhao cheered up, gouged out Tan Guihua's eyes, pushed her daughter aside, and went straight into the room, "Close the door."

Tan Guihua looked at the menacing Mrs. Zhao, her whole body became more sober, but some monk Zhang Er couldn't figure it out, what's wrong with mother, and where did she come back after being angry, there is no place to vent her anger, did you find me to vent it?

By the way, elder brother seems to invite mother to dinner tonight, bah, I don't even invite my aunt and grandma.

Could it be that the eldest brother's family has been treated by a mother again?
Hmph, unfilial bastard!
Tan Guihua stood at the door, thinking in a daze, that Mrs. Zhao had pulled out the oil lamp with an iron pick, and the room was brighter.

"Osmanthus, come here and sit down for me." Mrs. Zhao sat down on the edge of the bed first, and then pointed to a small bed beside the bed and said.

"Oh." Tan Guihua nodded stupidly, closed the door, and then sat down in front of Mrs. Zhao, "Mother, you don't bring me any good food at the big brother's house at night, and the smell wafts to us." I'm coming, I'm so hungry. Mom, did you bring me some back?"

She recalled the smell of meat from before, swallowed, with yearning on her face.

Mrs. Zhao patted the edge of the bed lightly, angrily, "You think about eating all day long, and you don't know how to think about serious things. Let me ask you, how are you doing with the flowers?"

When it comes to embroidery, Tan Guihua's eyes are a little erratic, so she talks about him from left to right, "Oh, mother, did your elder brother and sister-in-law make you angry? I'll scold them tomorrow, those unfilial sons."

"Tan Guihua, bring me the embroidery frame." Mrs. Zhao snapped.

It was the first time for Tan Guihua to see Zhao's being so fierce to her, and she couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. She knew how her old lady beat people.

In order not to suffer from the pain of flesh and blood, she slowly got up and found the embroidery frame thrown aside, and handed it to Mrs. Zhao with a guilty conscience.

I don't know that Mrs. Zhao really wanted to see what she was doing with the flowers she embroidered, so she looked at Mrs. Zhao uneasily.

Tan Guihua watched her mother's face turn into a cloud of black mist under the light.

"Tan Guihua, you...you really want to piss me off, my old lady. Since I was a child, I was reluctant to let you do anything. I raised you like a rich lady, and let you learn embroidery and needlework. I thought you could do it." Struggle, really proficient in knitting female celebrities like those rich ladies in the city.

But you stupid thing, people embroider flowers, what are you embroidering... How did I give birth to a hammer like you. "Ms. Zhao scolded with a black face, and smashed the embroidery frame in her hand.

It wasn't a flower at all, but a mess of strings put together in a mess.

Zhao's chest heaved violently with anger.

The movement in the room alarmed the people in the east and west compartments, and they all opened the doors to look.

Zhao Xiaozhi, who lived next door, was naturally the first to hear the noise, and hurried over to knock on the door.

Zhao Xiaozhi has been helping out at Luhuapo these days, but she seldom goes to the yard of Qiduo's house, and helps Mrs. Zhao with work after returning from work every day.

"Tan Guihua, from tomorrow onwards, you will get up and work for my old lady, washing and cooking, sweeping the floor and plastering. You have to do all these tasks." After leaving these words, Mrs. Zhao stood up and opened the door.

"Second aunt, are you okay?" Zhao Xiaozhi asked with concern.

"You are also a worthless thing." Zhao Shi gave Zhao Xiaozhi a vicious look, and then returned to the main room.

Zhao Xiaozhi was aggrieved by the scolding, she lowered her head and sighed, seeing that Tan Guihua was fine, she was relieved.

After thinking about it, he went to the main room to comfort Mrs. Zhao.

Seeing that there was nothing to watch, Yang and Wu both closed the door and went to sleep resentfully.

"Second aunt, grandma, why are you angry with Osmanthus fragrans? Come, drink some hot water." Zhao Xiaozhi poured a cup of hot water, blew on it, and handed it to Mrs. Zhao.

Mrs. Zhao took the teacup and drank it in one gulp.

The warm hot water entered his throat, and the bad breath in his heart seemed to have subsided a little.

"Xiaozhi, you are also a disappointing thing. I don't know how to fight for the good days that are ready-made. Why don't you go to the backyard these days?" Mrs. Zhao put down her teacup heavily, and instead of answering Zhao Xiaozhi's question, she scolded her.

Zhao Xiaozhi poured another cup of hot water, and then said, "Second aunt, grandma, I know you are doing it for my own good, but my eldest cousin and sister-in-law are as good as one person, and it is useless for me to go more times. Besides, I also I don’t have the face to do that kind of thing that hurts people’s spine. I can earn ten yuan a day now, which is much better than before, and I’m content.”
"So you are worthless, you are satisfied with ten taels of silver a day? The old man earns dozens of taels of silver a day, you bastard." Zhao scolded meanly.

Zhao Xiaozhi's eyes were red and she didn't answer.

She knows what she can and cannot do.

Not for yourself, but also for your son.
After silently accompanying Mrs. Zhao for a while, Zhao Xiaozhi left the upper room and went back to sleep.

Qiduo didn't expect that Mrs. Zhao would teach Tan Guihua a lesson so quickly. She woke up in the morning, stood in the yard, bathed in the warm sunshine, kicked her legs and stretched her arms, and did some simple exercises.

Liu Lang and Chang Sheng got up early in the morning and went to the academy with Shen Huairen and Shen Nan.

As for the rest of the badger meat, Qiduo stir-fried them with hot peppers, and then asked Tan Dejin to bring them to Tan Debao and Tang Hu and his son for a tooth sacrifice, so that they would not really keep them until Wen Xiuyi came, anyway, the meat would not be kept. live.

If the weather is cold, it can also be salted and dried into dried bacon.

Now that the weather is warm, it will be marinated if not done well.
Tan Debao seldom came back after the thatched hut on Luhuapo was built. He said it was convenient and lively to live there.

Tan Debao is currently in charge of Luhuapo, and Tang Hu is the deputy manager. If Tan Debao is not around, he will keep his word.

With Tan Debao over there, Qiduo was very at ease.

However, she still has something on her mind, which is Tan Debao's face.

Last time, Wen Xiuyi asked him to apply softening powder for ten days. When he went back later, Wen Xiuyi said that the second course of treatment needed to be rested at home, and when he couldn't go out to see the wind, Tan Debao quit.

He said that Luhuapo was so busy that there was no way to leave, and he said that he would do it later when he was free.

How could Qiduo beat him, she asked Wen Xiuyi, and when she learned that it would not affect her if she was late, she followed him.

But she has been thinking about this matter, thinking that he will get rid of the scar on his face as soon as possible so that he can find a wife to come back.
While thinking about these things, San Lang came over with his hands behind his back and a smile on his face.

Yesterday I was going to talk about bean sprouts, but after drinking a few more glasses, I felt a little dizzy, so I had to give up.

"Morning third brother." Qiduo greeted with a smile.

"Morning Qimei, come here, let's talk about that." Sanlang walked over with a smile, but he was impatient, and he pulled Qiduo into the room.

Qiduo pursed her lips and smiled.

The two entered the room, sat at the table, and discussed the matter carefully.

Bean sprouts are very cheap, and it can be said that the cost is small and the profit is small. I really want to keep doing it, but I really can't do it without perseverance.

"Third brother, we originally planned to sell bean sprouts for three Wen per catty. If you do it, I will give you two Wen per catty, and then how much you sell for a catty has nothing to do with me. Anyway, all the money you make belongs to you. However, If you want more people to afford bean sprouts, the price should not be too high, otherwise people will be reluctant to buy them, and you will earn less." Qiduo said.

After removing the cost, this catty of soybeans can only earn a few pennies.

But in order to develop, these few pennies have to be earned.

Saburo didn't think about it for long, and he nodded readily and agreed, "Yes, even if I can only earn a penny, I will do it, and the accumulation will make a lot."

Hearing what he said, Qiduo nodded approvingly, and was worried that after selling the lotus root, he would not appreciate such a small amount of money.

It's because I think too much.

"By the way, Seventh Sister, my family will be moving in a few days, and it may not be as convenient to get goods then." San Lang said suddenly.
