Pinellia pastoral

Chapter 29 Money or Tofu
Like a broom sweeping fallen leaves, as soon as Mr. Su said, a group of people followed into the house.

Just looking at the movement at the gate of the yard, Su Youde roughly guessed what was going on, and told Mrs. Lin, "This side wants to talk about something, you go to the kitchen to cook."

Lin's hands and feet are nimble, but he refused to suffer, so he spoke a lot louder, "It's not my turn today!"

It stands to reason that Mrs. Li should be cooking today. After Mrs. Su Qian arranged for a few people to make tofu, Mrs. Sun also said that Mrs. Sun and Mrs. Li would cook, but now Mrs. Zhou said that Pinellia was stealing, how could she leave? .So Li's hand moved slightly, and he stood still.

Mrs. Zhou gloated a little, and looked at Mrs. Li's appearance, "It seems that the third sister-in-law is really capable. She didn't cook when it was her turn. She dared to talk to mother like that just now. This is going to starve her parents again." ?”

Ban Xia can't see, at this time, ask Li Shi to cook, the old man is soft, won't it be easier to wrong yourself?It's just that she has the bottom line in her heart, so she is not afraid, "Fourth aunt, aren't you more capable? I live with my grandfather, and you can see me stealing things. My mother can't ask if she wants to? Didn’t you come back after buying tofu to see my mother cook?”

"Why did you talk to the elders!" Zhou snorted coldly.

Su Youde also ignored the woman's quarrel, and only spoke to Lin's voice a little harder, "If you tell you to go, go!"

From the current point of view, the rest of them are related to the matter. It is appropriate for Lin to cook. Su Youde's voice is a bit louder. She didn't say a word, turned around and went to work.

Mr. Su just knocked on the cigarette ash and sat down, "Why did the house get burglarized?"

Su Qian's eyes, which were slightly closed just now, suddenly opened, and the light burst out, "Isn't it just a thief! It's hard to guard against house thieves day and night. An unfamiliar white-eyed wolf, mint is a good skill, even pinellia pinellia The money from selling tofu in the past two days has been completely stolen. You said that the two children have such courage. If no one speaks later... this is going to slap me in the face. I can't manage this business anymore... "

Su Qian has always spared no effort to complain to old man Su.

However, Mrs. Su Qian hasn't had a good life since she got married, and has worried a lot. Such thoughts are deeply ingrained in Mr. Su's mind.

Mint stuck her neck and wanted to talk again, but the second and third children beside her didn't say much.

Mrs. Sun begged Mr. Su and Mrs. Su Qian, "Father, mother, Mint is what you grew up watching, how could you dare..."

"Why don't you dare! When she was only this tall, she dared to steal eggs for you! Now go outside and ask, is there anything she dare not do? The pigs of the Huang family are kept outside, and she insists on slapping the tail. It's over, use hot coals to burn the dog, she will go out without talking about anyone, she will be disgusted by chickens! I can still wrong her!" Su Qian grabbed the handle as if.

Ban Xia squinted at Mint beside her, she was a little speechless, she was wilder than boys, with such a "record", it's no wonder that she was easily framed by others.

Mint shook her head, "If those things didn't provoke me! Can I teach them a lesson?"

Grandpa Su patted the table, "What a mess, talk about the other side!"

Instant clean.

Everyone was silent, Mint looked at Su Qian, Ban Xia and Li also looked at her, Su Qian felt this gaze, and looked at Zhou instead.

It was difficult for Mrs. Zhou not to speak, "I came back a bit late yesterday, so I forgot to give the money to my mother. I thought I would give it to you today, but when I came back and packed it, the money disappeared."

Seeing that everyone was staring at her, Zhou added, "At that time, there was only Mint there. Could it be that she didn't steal it?"

Banxia thought it was some kind of trap at first, but she didn't even see it, she could be wronged to such an extent, she couldn't help feeling sorry for herself and Mint, how low her status must be in this family, can she reach a conclusion in an instant what!

She smiled bitterly.

Mrs. Li became very angry, "Yuan Wu Niang, you should be more careful when you speak! To catch a thief and take the stolen goods! You are stealing by the side? Ban Xia is outside there, you dare to say that, what kind of heart do you have?" !"

Mrs. Zhou is not afraid of this, "Mother asked Mint just now, but Banxia stopped her, saying she knew where the money was!"

Finally being called, Ban Xia cleared her throat, "Yes, I know."

"Where is it hidden!"

Ban Xia is not in a hurry or panic, with Mrs. Li here and Mr. Su here, she is not afraid that Mrs. Su Qian and Mrs. Zhou will wrong her, "I want to ask my fourth aunt, you said you sold it in the past two days? The money for the tofu, so grandma must know how much the tofu that my aunt picked out in the past two days will probably sell for it? How many catties of soybeans, how much tofu can be ground, and how much can it be sold for in the end?"

Su Qian really knew, but she didn't want to follow Ban Xia's words.

"Grandma, you only know how much money our family has lost after talking about Pinellia."

In the past, Su Qian used this trick to deal with Su Youli and Li. She was originally a tofu seller, and she could be accurate to two copper coins.

Mrs. Su Qian glared at Mrs. Zhou, "The tofu made by this slacker is not very good, but I figured out that there should be 120 Siwen in two days. Where did the money go?"

In fact, she still has some reservations.

Ban Xia didn't worry about it, "Then I would like to ask my fourth uncle and my aunt, how is the tofu business in the past two days, can it be sold?"

Su Youcai was very displeased with Pinellia's disturbance, "Why can't it be sold! They have recognized our tofu. If they buy more at one time, they will give them two coins or two yuan. This is a long-term business. Didn't the third brother do the same before!"

Speaking of this, he was a little proud. If he didn't say that, Su Qian would have nothing to say when he settled accounts with them afterwards. He and Zhou ate a lot of good things at the fair.

But I don't know, as soon as he said this, the corners of Banxia's mouth turned up. If he hadn't waited for him to say that, why would Banxia ask Su Qian's how much money in the first place.

Sure enough, Ban Xia was still smiling, "Since this is the case, it can be seen that Fourth Uncle has done a good job in business, and met many such people who buy a lot at a time."

"That's right! If I had been allowed to sell it earlier, the family would have had more money. It's not that I'm talking about your third brother, you're still too stupid to do business..." He taught Su Youli proudly.

Ban Xia sneered, mercilessly, "Then fourth uncle, since you met so many people who bought a lot! And you are so good at doing business, why did you and fourth aunt come back so late these two days! Shouldn't you sell it? Is it faster? You are so lucky, who did you sell to? Where do you set up a stall, Fourth Uncle, and you are so good at doing business, do people around you know?"

After a few questions, Su Youcai choked.

As for Ban Xia, it has only just begun.
