Chapter 41 Taking a Donkey Cart on Credit

These words made Huang feel at ease.Although these sons did not have much potential and each had their own thoughts, they were generally filial to her.

Xu Deyuan immediately stopped Aunt Qiu and ordered: "Chunhe, go and carry Mother."

Chunhe's daughter Xu Minglu immediately felt sorry for her own mother, "Dad, my mother's health was broken during childbirth, so she had to keep her. My feet were covered with blood blisters from walking in the past two days, and I slept in pain last night." No, you feel sorry for her——"

"Irregular thing!" Huang Cui'e has long been dissatisfied with the lazy appearance of her second wife. In the past, these concubines looked down on her as a peasant woman from the countryside. Now that she is in exile, Huang Cui'e doesn't want to spoil them anymore. She just slaps her. "You little son of a bitch, when will it be your turn to interrupt when the elders are talking! They all think they are in Bianjing City. Why, you are not willing to fulfill your filial piety on behalf of your parents? What a waste of money. You fight!"

Although Xu Minglu was a concubine, she had always believed that no one in her family could get past her except the three legitimate daughters born to her second wife, let alone the eldest daughter she had always looked down upon.

Huang Cui'e had stirred up a hornet's nest now. Xu Minglu couldn't bear the grievance, so she opened her mouth and cried: "Why should aunt hit me? My father has never hit me once. If you don't want to carry your grandmother's back, just let me Come on, my dear. It’s also lunch. I gave you a mouthful of porridge, but I gave you a full bowl of porridge for your cousins. My dear, you clearly offered to help you. It’s because you want to dominate the food that you refuse to let me help, like a thief. He seemed to be on guard against us, and now he’s calling me lazy——”

"That's enough!" Mrs. Huang beat her chest, cold sweat dripped from her forehead, her lips were a little bruised, and the folds on her face were shaking. "Don't worry, I still have a lot of strength, I don't need you to carry her."

At this time, Xu Zhenying had already returned. The Xu family was busy arguing, and almost no one noticed Xu Zhenying until she interrupted everyone's quarrel: "Grandma, Li Xiucai's family has a donkey cart. I have already negotiated it. Just take care of it." Just go and sit."

Huang's eyes lit up. She remembered Li Xiucai's family. The concubine in that family was so arrogant that her aunt would take care of her son while she sat in a donkey cart and held her throat like a little goblin every day. The main house makes people go around.Everything to eat and drink was served by the two legitimate daughters born to his wife.

The concubine was dressed up beautifully, and the two legitimate daughters were as thin as matchsticks. When they stood next to her, others thought they were her maids who kept the fire.

Among the high-ranking dignitaries in Bianjing City, all rules are extremely strict, and the distinction between direct descendants and concubines is the most important.Even the Huang family looked down upon such an unruly family.

The fourth aunt said: "How could he agree to this? Yesterday I also asked, and Li Xiucai asked for 20 taels of silver. He said that one penny is a lot."

Huang Cui'e immediately shouted: "What? 20 taels of silver? Is his donkey cart rimmed with gold? Why didn't he grab it?!"

Miao only knew that Xu Qingying had left for a while, but she didn't expect that she had gone to discuss with others. She was also surprised at this moment: "Then Li Xiucai is not easy to talk to, how could he agree?"

Xu Qingying sighed, helped her grandmother Huang and walked to Li Xiucai's car. She didn't want to care about it, but her grandmother was not bad to the original owner. Not to mention the blood relationship, she would never have seen such an old person in her previous life. of elderly people suffering.

Even an ordinary strong man can't bear such a long journey, let alone the Huang family who is over fifty years old?
"Grandma, go sit down first and tie your legs later, otherwise you will be even more uncomfortable tomorrow and the day after."

But Mrs. Huang felt sorry for the 20 taels of silver and said, "Sixth girl, please make it clear first. If you don't make it clear, I won't take the donkey cart."

Xu Qingying had no choice but to say: "I saw the Fang family's carriage. The four carriages were full of supplies. Although their family has few elders but many children, they probably can't make room for it. Only Li Xiucai bought it at the instigation of my concubine. They have a donkey cart, but they don’t have money to buy grain, and their cart is empty. That’s why he refuses to give up the price, so he just wants to rip us off so he can buy grain.”

When Mrs. Huang heard this, she immediately refused to go. She twisted her body and walked back with difficulty, "Then I won't sit down. We can buy two donkey carts in the countryside for 20 taels. My life is not that precious. I I feel better now, I can walk on my own—"

Xu Qingying had no choice but to hold her back and said, "Grandma, please go there first. I have made an agreement with him. The donkey cart is on credit. The 20 taels of silver will be given to him within five days."

"What?" Huang Cui'e jumped up immediately, "Sixth girl, are you crazy? How can we still have money now? Even if it is a credit, what should we pay back?"

The eldest uncle also said: "That's right, if you, the third wife, agreed to it yourself, then you have to pay for it yourself. Anyway, I didn't agree, and I don't have the money -"

Xu Degui and Miao glanced at each other without saying anything, but they didn't just want to accept the 20 taels of silver.

The fourth room also remained silent and did not help each other.

"Listen to me." Xu Zhenying's voice was clear and unhurried, "These 20 taels are on credit for five days. I will find a way to get our things back within these five days, and then return them to Li Xiucai." .”

Someone jumped and said angrily: "You said it so simply, how could those dog officials return our things?"

Xu Zhenying tilted his head, his eyes bright, "Forget it if you don't come back yet, the carriage is already occupied anyway, so what can Li Xiucai do?"

Everyone was stunned, and then the eldest aunt slapped her thigh, "Yes, I've already sat down. How can I do it? Do you want us to come back? Liu Yatou, you are so smart!"

The fourth aunt immediately grasped the key point, "But why does Li Xiucai believe what you said? After all, there is so much money, so he believes that we will not default on the debt?"

Xu Zhenying smiled slightly, calmly, but glanced at his second uncle with a smile, and then said: "Xu's second uncle has been an official for many years and has a good reputation. Li Xiucai looks up to his second uncle and looks up to his reputation, so naturally he is willing to give us On credit.”

Obviously, Xu Deyuan was very satisfied with the flattery. He even straightened his waist. It was rare for him to show a hint of appreciation for Xu Qingying in his eyes, but he pretended to be modest and said: "I didn't expect that after many years of being an official, I have never done anything to gain fame. But it's hard for anyone to remember me. Go and tell Li Xiucai that I will come to express my gratitude someday."

Xu Zhenying did not comment, only agreed.Then Miao and Zhao both supported their grandmother to Li Xiucai's carriage, but grandmother secretly pulled Xu Zhenying and said with a worried look on her face: "Sixth girl, tell me the truth, then Li Xiucai is really willing to take care of the second son's face." Give us credit?"

Miao comforted him: "If you don't believe Qingying, don't you believe the second brother? Maybe Li Xiucai thought that the second brother would resurrect, so he rushed to curry favor with the second brother? In the past, we were in Bianjing City At that time, weren't there many wealthy businessmen rushing to give gifts to the concierge?" Grandma disagreed. She had been farming all her life and had been an old lady for more than ten years, but she never forgot her duty and was still a kind-hearted person. A hard-working country lady.

"Don't fool me, old woman. The past was the past, and the present is now. In the past, when those escorts saw the second son, they would have to kneel down in a row, but now, you see, we are just like beasts. They say that things are changing, You are in trouble, and all the dogs passing by will step on you, not to mention that Li Xiucai, who looks so mean and mean, how could he be willing to give us credit just for the sake of his second son?"

"Grandma, don't worry. As we are barefoot, we are afraid of what he will do if he wears shoes. At worst, we can just refuse to agree to whatever request Li Xiucai makes."

Huang could only think like this, Miao and Zhao helped Huang to Li Xiucai's donkey cart.The donkey cart was similar to a cart. It had no roof and could barely accommodate three people.Li Xiucai was sitting in the front driving the carriage, and his concubine was sitting in the back with several bags beside her.Seeing Huang, he raised his chin slightly as a greeting.

Mrs. Huang walked in, and the concubine smelled the smell, pinched her nose and said in disgust: "Why does it smell so bad? Old man, please sit over and order some."

Huang moved her buttocks a little embarrassedly, "I've been sweating a little these past two days. It's because of the smell."

The concubine hummed and raised her fingers, "If it weren't for the 20 taels of silver, I wouldn't want to sit with country people like you. Don't you know, my husband is a scholar, so before that, I don’t want people like you working as slaves for my family—"

Mrs. Huang murmured in her heart: Your man is just a scholar, but my son is still a Jinshi.She doesn't like a family that dotes on its wives and destroys its concubines.

But under the eaves, Huang laughed and didn't argue with her.

Seeing that Huang didn't refute, the concubine had no intention of showing off. She just waved her hand and shouted to a thin and short figure: "Zhao Di, I'm hungry. You can pick some fruit for me later."

Li Xiucai said: "What kind of fruit should I eat? Let Zhaodi take good care of her brother."

"Zhao Di is not free, so let Yin Zhang go. Anyway, Da Lang has his sister and Zhao Di taking him with him. The child has nothing to do, so why not pick some fruits? Da Lang said he had a sore throat in the past two days and wanted to drink. Honey water, where can I find some honey right now? I’ll just eat some fruit to kill him.”

As soon as Li Xiucai heard that this was reasonable, he felt thirsty in his stomach, so he said to Yin Zhang: "Second girl, when we get to the inn later, go and see if there are any fruits nearby and pick more."

Xu Zhenying turned his head and saw blood on the shoes of the two sisters Li Zhaodi and Li Yinzhang. One was [-] or [-] and the other was [-] or [-]. They were both extremely weak. Hearing these words, he did not show any intention of rejection and just nodded. .

But my grandmother couldn't help but said: "The second girl of your family is still so young. It's hard for her to walk with such a small body. How can you be willing to let her pick fruits? Besides, it's not safe to go out at night. What if she encounters some wild beast?" Is good?"

The concubine was not happy, "You old woman, you are kind enough to lend me a ride in your donkey cart, why are you teaching my husband a lesson? It is said that the kindness of parents is greater than heaven, even if she is not allowed to pick some fruit, how can I expect her to know how to do it in the future? Are you filial to your parents? Besides, there are so many people at the inn, so why doesn’t she just go far away? You feel so sorry for these two girls, why don’t you bring some food over, who can’t be kind? If she doesn’t pick fruits, let’s go together Are you guys drinking the northwest wind?!"

Mrs. Huang was stunned for a moment by what she said, and then she was so angry that she stopped looking at the two little girls. She snorted and muttered in a low voice: "What the hell, a concubine dares to be so arrogant? It's such a big deal in Bianjing City." You must not be beaten to death by your aunt."

The fourth aunt pulled Huang and signaled Huang not to talk too much.

Miao also said: "Mom, sit here peacefully. If you are thirsty or hungry, just greet us."

After Mrs. Huang got on the donkey cart, her fourth aunt walked behind, deliberately missing Mrs. Miao, and then pulled Xu Zhenying and said: "Sixth girl, your leggings saved your life. I saw that your aunt and the others were discussing just now. I’m wearing leggings when I take a break later.”

Xu Zhenying was stunned, "Where did they get the fabric? Aren't all our things stolen?"

"Hey..." The fourth aunt hesitated and said in a low voice, "Um...isn't there another girl from the Qian family? It's not like you don't know about your eldest aunt... The luggage of the girl from the Qian family has been almost stolen in the past two days. They've emptied everything out, and I think the girl probably only has two pieces of clothing left when I look at her today."

Xu Zhenying thought that the girl from the Qian family was probably a soft persimmon who could talk to the wife of the Li Xiucai family.When I meet such a strong mother-in-law as my eldest aunt, I don’t know how I will be punished in the future.

"I just want to ask you, why did Li Xiucai agree to your grandmother riding a donkey cart? Don't fool your fourth aunt the same way you fooled your grandmother -"

Miao was walking in front, but she also heard the conversation between Zhao Zhenlan and Xu Qingying behind her. Her ears stood up, as if she was extremely curious.

She really thought that Li Xiucai agreed because of Xu Deyuan's face. Why did the fourth brother and sister think that there was something else going on?
But seeing how close Zhao Zhenlan and Xu Qingying were, Miao felt a little uncomfortable.

Why has Xu Qingying not been very close to her since she was imprisoned, but instead has a lively chat with her four younger siblings?
Xu Zhenying smiled and saw that everyone in the second room was left far behind, so he did not hide it at the moment: "I told Li Xiucai that the second uncle would go to him to sign a rent agreement of 20 taels tonight, and it was agreed that the 20 taels would be settled within five days. Qing. Li Xiucai refused at first, but then I vaguely revealed the news that the second uncle might come back to life, so he might be willing to take a gamble."

The fourth aunt was so frightened that she slapped her on the back and said, "You damn girl, you are so courageous. 20 taels... I'm afraid your second uncle won't agree to sign. What will you do then?"

"Fourth Aunt, you have to look at both sides of everything." Xu Zhenying smiled slyly, "If the second uncle doesn't sign, we will give my grandmother the opportunity to ride in the donkey cart for half a day. If the second uncle signs, then we can ride for five days. As for what happens after five days. , there will only be two outcomes, either to get back what belongs to us and pay Li Xiucai 20 taels of silver. Or to ride on the donkey cart for free for five days. No matter how you look at this outcome, it is beneficial."

Miao couldn't help it anymore, her chest heaved and she said: "Ying'er, how could you deceive Li Xiucai's family like this? Our family obviously doesn't have 20 taels now, and you do things like this... Don't let others poke our spines and scold our family. Liar?"

 I read some reviews recently and they all said that the heroine is a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle.I know everyone likes the cool plot of a novel about you bullying me and me giving you a slap in the face, but this article is definitely not a simple novel that just feels good and is over.Regarding the controversy over the heroine’s character, I would like to make two points.First, the heroine has worked as a grassroots cadre in rural areas. She is very tolerant of the best and is a smooth person. She has no feelings for the Xu family at all, and the things the Xu family does cannot really anger the heroine. She is not tolerant, but she really doesn't care about the Xu family. .Second, the heroine is definitely not a Ninja Turtle. On the contrary, she is a very vicious person. She will be absolutely cruel to those who really touch the reverse scale, and she will definitely kill many people in the later stage.It’s only [-] words now, so I really can’t see much yet, so please stop scolding me and just enjoy reading the article.
