Chapter 46 Money

Su Jin took Han Yu and Liu Siyan into the Su family's old house, explaining that she was here to see the Sunny Flower Fields, and to give her grandmother pension money for the second half of the year.Mrs. Lu took the money bag from her granddaughter, opened it to have a look, curled her lips, coughed and said, "How much is this?"

Obviously you just counted it yourself, Su Jin complained, but she didn't dare not answer, so she said with a smile: "It's 50 taels."

"50 taels?" Mrs. Lu sighed, "At first your family was not rich, and the half-year pension was only ten taels, but later it increased to 20 taels. It stands to reason that 50 taels is not a lot, but now your family's pension is only ten taels. Life is very easy, isn't the 50 taels a bit less?"

When she said this, Liu Siyan, who was sitting next to Su Jin, felt a little inconceivable, how could grandma say so clearly that it was not enough when her granddaughter came to give her pension money?Her grandmother was never like this. Every time she saw her, she would pull her into her arms and scream, and give herself a lot of good things.Thinking of her, she went to see Han Yu, saw him reclining on the armchair and dozing with his eyes closed, so he just stared at him without saying a word.

"Grandmother, my family is really not well-off. My eldest sister just got married last month, and my parents have subsidized a lot of things. If you think these are not enough, I will tell my father when I go back." Su Zhen was embarrassed Looking at Mrs. Lu.

It’s okay if she doesn’t talk about it, but Lu gets angry when she mentions it, “It’s just marrying a girl, why give so much dowry, every girl’s film is a loser, you tell your father, let him marry Tang girl They asked for her dowry back there, anyway, the Han family is so rich, so it’s not bad.”

As soon as she said this, Han Yu opened his eyes all of a sudden, but he still didn't say anything when he opened his mouth. It's not easy for him to cry poorly with an old man, right?But Liu Siyan couldn't help it anymore, "Jin'er's grandmother, why are you talking so harshly? What do you mean girl movies are all money-losing products? Do you dare to say that all the daughters born in your family are used to make money? Are you still Jin'er? The grandmother of her elder sister, can you say such a thing?"

"You girl, why are you so indifferent? I, an old man, have no place for you to intervene. Why are you so rude!" She choked on Lu's words, and angrily thumped the table.

Liu Siyan simply jumped up, "Grandma Jin'er, are you belittling my parents and elders by saying that?"

Lu snorted and didn't speak.

Seeing Liu Siyan's angry face, Su Jin felt that it was necessary for her to remind her grandmother, so she laughed a few words, gloating in her heart, "Grandmother, don't talk nonsense, you know that this girl's parents Who is it?"

Lu Shi still kept a straight face and said nothing.Su Jin sighed intentionally, glanced at Liu Siyan, signaled her to be calm, and continued, "This girl's surname is Liu, and her father is the county magistrate Liu, the parent officer of Qingshi Town."

Mrs. Lu was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Liu Siyan carefully. Obviously, she didn't expect Su Jin to befriend the daughter of such a powerful family, and when she thought about what she just said, she didn't know what to say. I just drank tea with my head down, and didn't mention the lack of pension money.

At this moment, Mrs. Xiao Lu walked in holding Su Qing's hand.Su Jin took a closer look, and found that Xiao Lu's belly was indeed a little bulging, but looking at the round belly and the way she walked, she didn't look like her mother when she was pregnant with Brother Shuo, so it must be Will it be a son?
"Jin'er is back, what are you doing here?" Little Lu carefully sat down next to Lu's lower head, holding her stomach with one hand.

Su Jin glanced at her grandmother and saw that she had nothing to hide, so she told her about her visit.Little Lu looked at Lu, and Lu coughed and said, "Jin'er, it's what grandma said just now, this money is not enough, your second uncle is away all day, and your second aunt is pregnant again. , What is this money enough for, I can’t afford to support this family.”

"Grandmother, what do you mean, let my parents work hard outside to support you, as well as my second uncle and second aunt's family?" Su Zhen was not happy when she said that, "Don't forget, We have separated a long time ago. My parents should support you, but it is not enough to support the second uncle’s family. The second uncle is not a child anymore. , you won’t be afraid of being laughed at if you say it, our Su family has no rules!”

"Look at what you said so seriously, what are the rules? Grandma didn't tell your parents to keep your second uncle's family all the time. Isn't it because your second aunt is pregnant? Your second uncle and you It’s not that I don’t know, whoever cares about your father as the eldest brother.” Mrs. Lu didn’t care at all, as if she thought it was a matter of course.

Xiao Lu sat smiling and lowered her head to caress her stomach. Han Yu and Liu Siyan wanted to say a few words, but this was the Su family's housework. Even if they wanted to intervene, they couldn't open it. They just sat on the sidelines. When oneself does not exist.

"By the way, ask your father to buy two more maids. One is that I am old, and your second aunt can't cook, so she needs someone to take care of her. The other is that your sister-in-law also needs a maid. When she gets married It's good to have a maid as a dowry, I know that your elder sister brought two maids with her when she got married." Lu once again raised her request.

Hearing this, Su Jin felt a little unbelievable. She really wanted to see what was going on in her grandmother's mind. She even thought about buying a maid, so she felt a little weak, "You also said that my sister-in-law is also getting married. I'm getting older, shouldn't I learn some things in the kitchen, so I let my sister-in-law practice while my second aunt is inconvenient, and even if I bought you a maid, can you afford it? No Is my family going to pay for their food and clothing?"

Little Lu's eyes lit up, and just as she was about to say it's okay, she was stared back by Lu, who couldn't see that the younger generation was trying to bury you!
"Just tell me if this is okay?" Mrs. Lu asked bluntly.

Su Jin shook her head, "It's unreliable, don't say it's not good, it's even more unreliable to ask my father to spend more money to support my second uncle and aunt. Grandmother and granddaughter have to remind you again, our family has been censored. You separated, what did you say when you separated? Didn't you say that my father would take 20 taels of pension money every year, and then distribute the ancestral house to the second uncle's family, and you will live with the second uncle from now on? Why now Even you and your second uncle and second trial family have become our family's support?" This matter must be clarified, and after going back, you must make it clear to your father, so that he will not come back for a while, otherwise he will follow his honest and honest temperament. , Grandma cried, made troubles and hanged herself three times, and he accepted it when he couldn't bear it. When he went back, his mother would fight and fight with him, and they had to make up, and their house would never stop.

"I won't tell you about this. You are a junior, so I can't tell you. When you go back, call your father back and I'll tell him." Seeing that the conversation didn't work out, Mrs. Lu simply stopped talking to her. .

"Alright." Su Jin nodded, "Let my mother come with my father."

Let Liu Qingcui come together?Both Lu and Xiao Lu shook their heads, Liu Qingcui had to lift the roof of the old house, besides, with her, the honest and honest elder son and uncle would not promise them anything, so their wishful thinking It's completely out of play.

"That's it, I'll leave first if I have something to do." Su Jin stood up and left without giving them a chance to speak.Han Yu also chatted with Liu Siyan, who wanted to continue watching the fun, and the two also stood up and left.

As soon as they left, Su Ran came out from the back room, sat down next to her mother, pouted and said, "Mother, didn't you promise to get me two maids? What should I do now? ? I told the second boy of the Fang family that I would bring two dowry maids with me when I got married. It would be a shame to embarrass me, so I just don't want to marry. "

The second boy of the Fang family is called Fang Ze, who Su Ran met when he went to sell embroidery in the town.He is a clerk in the embroidery house in the town. Every time Su Ran went to the town to sell embroidery, he was responsible for it. For some reason, the two of them met each other once and for all. .

However, Mrs. Lu somewhat looked down on Fang Ze, thinking that he was just a young boy who would not have great prospects in the future, so when he heard Su Ran say this, he reprimanded, "I said this is no good, so don't think about it anymore, Fang Ze I went to inquire about the family, and the poor in the family can’t get rid of it. There are three older brothers who got married with great difficulty. There are two younger sisters who are not married yet, and they are not separated. You have a big family, old and young. When you marry, you have to serve the old and take care of the young. You have been pampered since you were a child. How can you be willing to let you suffer a little grievance? How can you bear that grievance? Sometimes you can't stand it and run back, but that root is different now, you can think about it for me."

"Mother, I've made up my mind. Since I want to marry, I can do well. Don't worry about it." Su Ran lowered her head and played with her jasper bracelet. This bracelet was Lu's dowry back then, and no one was willing to give it to her. , I gave it to my little daughter.Seeing this, Xiao Lu secretly rolled her eyes a few times.

"I say no!" The Lu family has her own insistence on this matter. She wants to give her daughter the happiness she thinks is right, but she knows that her daughter doesn't approve of it. , I told him, let him find you a good one in the town, one not worse than the Han family, okay?"

Seeing that the mother and daughter were talking endlessly about this matter, Xiao Lu quickly interrupted, "Mother, this matter can be postponed, but if you don't make it clear about the money once and for all , I’m afraid they won’t come in the future.”

Mrs. Lu glanced at her, "Don't worry, I know what I know."

Not mentioning the old house of the Su family, just talking about Su Jin's side, a few people walked along the dirt road that was not too sticky and slippery to the back mountain of Liushu Village.The top of the mountain is not high, and after walking for a long time, I saw a large sea of ​​sunflower flowers in the distance. Liu Siyan shouted happily, and ran towards the sea of ​​flowers, even saying that the trip was not in vain.Su Jin was about to follow, but Han Yu grabbed her arm, "Who is that man?"
