Mrs. Zhang refused straight away: "Of course it's inappropriate. Li Zheng has already helped us a lot, how can we continue to accept his kindness? Besides, our family is not unable to expose the blame. We don't need to borrow a hundred kilograms of military rations from others, we can just buy them from outside. "

Wang Shuyan didn't want to borrow it originally, but just took the opportunity to test Li Zheng's attitude towards the rumors.

She said: "I think so too. I will use the surplus food at home to hand over the military rations first, and then I will go to Wuli Town to buy food the next day."

Ever since Mrs. Zhang found out that her family had nearly a hundred taels of silver, the heavy worries in her heart had long since disappeared.

In addition, she and Wang Fu have already become sworn friends, so she doesn’t have to worry about debt collectors coming to her door, or Wang Fu beating her children. She just stares at the house every day and kicks the shuttlecock when she has nothing to do. She is as happy as when she was getting married every day.

Once a person is free from sorrow, his smile is bright. Mrs. Zhang said to her daughter, "Okay, you can make the decision at home. When the house is built, I will go to Aunt Su every day to ask her how to grow food."

Wang Shuyan threw cold water at her: "Mom, the autumn harvest is almost here, how can you learn to grow food?"

Mrs. Zhang was not happy: "Then...then there is still weeding and wheat harvesting that I can learn? No matter what, I can also learn to grow vegetables. What can't I learn?"

Wang Shuyan felt dizzy when she thought about the fifty acres of land waiting for her to open up, and said perfunctorily: "Yes, yes, my mother can do it."

Mrs. Zhang held up her waist fan and covered her mouth, giggling. She smiled brightly and said, "I hope our house will be built soon... Look, the tiles are almost finished."

The second and third Liang ran out of the bamboo house with sweat on their heads. The third Liang said with a smile: "Auntie, my cousin lost, and we won."

The two always remember Wang Shuyan's instructions and must call them 'cousin' when outsiders are around.

Wang Shuyan and Mr. Zhang looked puzzled. Mr. Zhang smiled and asked, "How can I beat your cousin?"

Er Liang smiled like a tiger and said: "My cousin played with us and lost the top."

Yuan Zheng, who walked out of the bamboo house, did not look dejected after losing. He was also sweating and wrinkled his little nose and said: "I won you so many times, but I only lost once."

Sanyang said proudly: "This is the beginning of your loss, and we will definitely win again next time!"

Wang Shuyan feels that Xiao Yuanzheng has changed a lot now. He knows how to irritate others, and his personality is becoming more and more cheerful.Waved to him, took out a gray handkerchief to wipe the sweat from his face, and asked the three little kids to drink more water to replenish their fluids.

I was afraid of hurting the children when building the house during the day, and the weather was hot, so I let them play in the house. The house was not as breathable and cool as the outside. They were all sweating profusely, their faces were red from the heat, and they looked hot. .

Mrs. Zhang fanned several children wildly in the face, and poured water on the second and third parties to wipe their sweat with a loving look on her face.

Yuan Zheng took the teapot from Wang Shuyan's hand and drank water. He looked at Mrs. Zhang and then at her. His black and white eyes were filled with thoughts, but he was too shy to express them.

"Do you have something to say?" Wang Shuyan asked funnyly, seeing that Xiao Yuanzheng was full of thoughts but hesitated to speak.

Yuan Zheng shook his head and drank water obediently. If his eyes hadn't turned around and betrayed his thoughts, he would have been able to deal with it.

Wang Shuyan felt that the child was thinking too much, so he slapped his little head with his waist fan and said in a feigned anger: "Children should be innocent and innocent, don't be full of thoughts."

Does this mean you want him to speak directly?

Xiao Yuan was biting his lip and looking at her. After careful consideration, he asked, "Sister Wang, do you not like the summer clothes I chose?"

Wang Shuyan shook his head: "No."

Xiao Yuan was unhappy: "Then...then why don't you wear any clothes?" He felt disappointed at the end.

The summer clothes were the ones he personally picked out when he and Uncle Lin went out to play last time. It was already very late when he came back. When he woke up the next morning, he timidly said this. Zhang was very happy after hearing this and gave it to him in front of him. When Liang Sanyang tried it on for size, he said it fit and looked good, but he put it away after trying it on.

After waiting for a few days, he thought that the summer dress Aunt Zhang was wearing today was the one he bought. He was secretly happy for a while, but later he found that the style was wrong, but the color was similar. Among the items he bought, there were only two hostas that Aunt Zhang wore. .

The daily items he bought for this family were all carefully stored, except for the enlightenment gadgets Erlang and Sanlang he bought that he played with every day.

He thought about it for a few days but couldn't figure out the reason. Strictly speaking, these things were paid for by Aunt Wang and Uncle Lin. He just bought them according to his own preferences, but it seemed that most of them were not used. After a few days, I felt inexplicably uncomfortable. I always felt that the things I bought were rejected by them.

Mrs. Zhang explained: "It's not that I won't wear it, but I plan to wear it on the day when our house is built and we invite the villagers to come over for a feast."

Xiao Yuanzheng's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Really?"

Wang Shuyan nodded: "The house is still being built, and the dust is flying every day. Why do you look so good in clothes? And those porcelain pots and pans you bought are so good-looking. They must be used when the time comes, so there is no rush."

Mrs. Zhang echoed: "Yes, the summer clothes that Azheng chose are so beautiful, Erlang and Sanlang really like them." Erlang quickly said to Yuan Zheng, "I like the clothes my cousin bought very much."

San Lang also said: "Me too, I want to wear them every day. Mom, my clothes have become smaller again, and these shoes have been very uncomfortable recently."

Mrs. Zhang was surprised and said: "You are too young again. Mom, take a look."

Mrs. Zhang saw that the shoes under San Lang's feet had indeed become smaller. Then she looked at the sleeves on his body. They were indeed a lot shorter. When the child was growing up, she could hardly keep up with the speed of making clothes and shoes. No wonder she has been making clothes and shoes recently. The three of them all like to walk with their heels pressed down, but it turns out they are too small.

Zhang said helplessly: "It seems that you have to wear the new shoes your cousin bought first."

When San Lang heard this, he trotted around them and cheered: "Oh... I have new shoes to wear." Childish laughter filled the courtyard.

Only then did Xiao Yuanzheng smile.

Wang Shuyan slapped him on the head with a waist fan and scolded him with a smile: "Children can do whatever they want, beware of the young man."

Xiao Yuan was rubbing his head, with a look of embarrassment as if his thoughts had been read: "How can I not, I'm afraid you won't like it."

Wang Shuyan thought of Zhang Jiulin and asked, "Where did your uncle Lin take you to play last time?"

After careful consideration, Xiao Yuanzheng whispered in her ear: "He took me to identify a few people."

This involves people's privacy. It has been nearly ten days since the last time Zhang Jiulin said he wanted to rob Ji Xiao. Zhao Qian has not been here, and neither has he. I don't know if Ji Xiao came out that time.

Wang Shuyan didn't ask any more questions, and fanned his waist with a thoughtful look on his face.

When Xiao Yuanzheng saw that she didn't ask any more questions, he just held the teapot and drank water.

Su Guihua, who was in the kitchen, leaned out and greeted everyone with a smile to stop work and eat: "It's time to eat!"

……

At noon the next day, Wang Shuyan showed up at the village clan early, dragging a bamboo frame and carrying a hundred kilograms of rice.

At this time, there were not many villagers who came to pay the rations, only a few here and there. When the village chief registered the rations for the Wang family, Zhou Songqing pulled her aside and said, "Didn't I agree that I would lend you a hundred kilograms of rations?"

Wang Shuyan wiped the sweat from his forehead and said: "This is what my mother meant. We are not at the point where we can't open the pot, so we can't borrow military rations from you. If you borrow No. 1, there will be a second person, which will have a bad influence on you. "

Zhou Songqing frowned: "Uncle doesn't care if there is any bad influence."

Wang Shuyan: "But my mother cares about you being talked about."

Zhou Songqing: "Then... can your family turn over one hundred kilograms of military rations and turn it around?"

Wang Shuyan smiled: "Okay, we have to pay for a hundred kilograms of military rations even if we don't have to eat them. My mother said that collecting military rations is a new law of the Heavenly Family. The collection of military rations is the first priority for every village in front of us. We must not make it difficult for you." After saying this, Dragging the bamboo frame and preparing to leave.

Zhou Songqing felt as if her heart was fried in oil. He stepped forward to stop her and said warmly: "Sister Yan, your mother is just afraid of others talking behind her back. Let's do this. Your family will buy food from me at three cents per pound. Let's Even if this is a monetary transaction, you still have to buy grain anyway."

Three pennies a pound?This is cheaper than a grain store!
Wang Shuyan was ecstatic in her heart, with no obvious dilemma on her face, and nodded again: "Okay, but uncle sold us for only three cents per catty, which makes you suffer somewhat."

Zhou Songqing laughed and scolded: "Smelly girl, I'm not going to do business. If I want to make money, should I sell it to a grain store?"

Wang Shuyan chuckled: "Then uncle, sell me three hundred catties."

Zhou Songqing was startled: "...don't you have no money? Buy so much at once?"

Wang Shuyan blinked: "Didn't you give me one tael of silver yesterday? Just right!"

Zhou Songqing: "..."

Why did he feel like a big wild boar that had fallen into a trap.
