"It's the New Year today, how about twenty cents?" Xu Yourong frowned and pursed his lips.

Jiang Zhimiao was startled, and then she remembered that the first day of every month was the time to give pension money to Jiang Xingshuo.

According to the written deed signed when the family was separated, this month has indeed come to an end.

Jiang Zhimiao raised his sleeves and wiped the hot sweat on his forehead, and said casually: "I will send it to him in a while. It won't be too short for him, so don't worry."

Xu Yourong breathed a sigh of relief, her heart hanging in the air was relieved. If it was usually late, it would be too late. She was celebrating the New Year, and she didn't want to bring bad luck because of this.

She could go, but she felt frightened when she saw Jiang Xingshuo. Xu Yourong felt uncomfortable and gave Jiang Zhimiao an apologetic look.

Jiang Zhimiao didn't react at all. After quickly finishing his work, he counted twenty copper coins and left the house.

Ever since Jiang Xingshuo spied on Jiang Zhimiao going to Wu Changsheng's house to approving land, he followed suit and approved a piece of land second only to Jiang Wen's family.

Originally, he planned to build his own house, but Jiang Xingsuo fell in love with it and insisted on getting the land, crying and shouting. Under the pressure of Grandma Jiang, he had no choice but to swallow his anger for the time being. .

After paying 20 taels of silver, he was robbed of another piece of land. He had no choice but to go to Wu Changsheng and choose a new piece of land.

Because he started too late, this piece of land was the wasteland picked out by others. Not only was it wasteland, it was also very remote.

A quarter of an hour later, when Jiang Zhimiao saw no one outside the hospital, she became angry and shouted inside: "Is there anyone there? Open the door quickly." She said while knocking.

An impatient voice came from the courtyard. Jiang Xingshuo scratched his ears in disgust and stood up to open the door. After seeing the familiar figure clearly, he was stunned and exclaimed: "Why are you here?"

Jiang Zhimiao was speechless and handed over the twenty copper coins she had brought. "Here, this month's pension money." She said without refusal.

Jiang Xingshuo glanced at the pile of copper coins with a complicated expression, feeling a little uncomfortable. He kept sending money every month. He was filial, but sometimes he was too filial, which was also an annoyance to him.

"It's the New Year after all, so why can't I give you something practical? Besides, I'm not short of these twenty coins. I'll just give them once in the next six months, or once a year."

Jiang Xingshuo curled his lips and took it reluctantly. He was not short of money, but this filial piety was too cheap. To him, it was simply an insult.

Jiang Zhimiao crossed his arms, snorted, and lightly opened his red lips, "When we separated, we made it clear in black and white. It's not bad to give you twenty yuan, so why are you so picky? Beautiful It’s up to you.”

She gave him a disgusted look, turned around and left.

Jiang Xingshuo's face darkened, and he became angry for no reason. He gritted his teeth and said, "You are also a girl with such a hot temper. Let's see if you can get married in the future."

After saying that, he hummed, flicked his sleeves, and went straight inside.

"Do you have to worry about whether I get married or not? You should take good care of yourself. I see that your eyes are black and the soles of your feet are weak. Instead of worrying about whether I get married or not, you should go find a doctor and take a good look at it." Jiang Zhimiao didn't look back and said calmly.

Ahhhhhhhhh, Jiang Xingshuo is going crazy, this little girl's movie is really outrageous, and she curses him during the Chinese New Year, isn't it?

There was a sudden chill in his eyes, and he stared at her leaving back angrily, wishing he could burn a hole to get out. "Dad, who were you talking to just now?" Jiang Zhiyue slowly walked out of the room and followed his gaze in confusion.

"It's nothing." Jiang Xingshuo clenched his fists, drawled his voice, and gritted his teeth.

Jiang Zhiyue rubbed her eyes and looked hard at the back of the person leaving. Unexpectedly, she disappeared around the corner. She could only vaguely see that she was a woman, and she immediately made a decision in her heart.

"Zhiyue, how's your embroidery going?" Jiang Xingshuo calmed down and asked with a stern face.

Jiang Zhiyue was startled by his expectant look. She lowered her head and murmured: "It will take some time."

When Jiang Xingshuo heard this, he immediately frowned, pinched her shoulders, and said in a deep tone: "The reason why my father sent you to the Su family to learn embroidery was to give you the skills to become a virtuous and virtuous person in the capital. reputation."

"Now that our Jiang family has been defeated, it is no longer feasible to study in civilized or martial arts. Fortunately, you have also completed your studies. From now on, the rise and fall of our second family will all depend on you. You must not slack off."

He emphasized the accent on the words "second room" and "rise and fall", and it seemed that the unwillingness could be seen faintly in his eyes.

"I know, I'm going to embroider right away." After Jiang Zhiyue touched the ambition in his eyes, she shuddered unconsciously, hurriedly entered the room, and continued to embroider.

At the same time, Wu Changsheng’s family.

"Old man, tell me, why did the people above come to you? Why do I feel so panicked when I send someone to the county government office for no apparent reason?" Aunt Sun took the thickest piece of clothing at home. Putting his coat on Wu Changsheng's body, he said worriedly.

"It's the Chinese New Year. It's hard for the whole family to gather together. I don't think I'd like you to go at any time. But you're going today. I think you're better off being the village chief than not." She patted the big coat lightly. The hairy catkins said angrily.

"Don't talk nonsense. What is said by the superiors has its own truth. How can ordinary people like you and me talk nonsense?" Wu Changsheng took a puff of dry cigarette and gave her a serious look.

"How could I get so many benefits in vain if I didn't become the village chief? The benefits from those exiles who come to allocate land are enough for our grandson to be able to support him in the next year. I think you are just a guy with long hair and short knowledge."

"That's true." Aunt Sun took out the hat from the cupboard, "Go back quickly, the family is still waiting for you to come back for the New Year's Eve dinner."

Wu Changsheng handed over the cigarette rod and said solemnly: "I understand."

Xu Yourong's right eyelid kept twitching when he woke up this morning. Later, when he got busy, it stopped twitching, but now it started twitching again.

"Miaomiao, why are my eyelids twitching all the time? There must be something going on at home." Xu Yourong panicked and pressed his right eyelid.

Jiang Zhimiao chuckled and said helplessly: "You must be thinking too much. I think your eyelids are twitching because of your busy embroidery all day long. If you use your eyes too much, they will twitch."

His left eye twitched for money and his right eye twitched for disaster. After hearing these words, Xu Yourong not only didn't feel comforted, but also started to think more wildly.

She shook her head vigorously, pressed her chest, and comforted herself, saying that all the speculation about wealth and disaster was fake.
