Chapter 82 The Idea

When old man Zhang saw the hay handed over by his granddaughter, he didn't think too much about it. He just took it and twisted the hay together with both hands to form a rope. He picked up the fish and strung it between the mouth and gills of the fish, blinking. Put two fish on a skewer.

Zhang Shuxue, who was about to open his mouth to speak, didn't even have the chance to stop him. Looking at the two fish in his hand, Zhang Shuxue was not willing.

When he saw the ten fish and rabbit meat that Widow Wang was carrying in the village, he made up his mind, and came here in a hurry. How could the two fish be sent away, and the outsiders returned the ten fish? As for the fish, I only have two for my family. Even if this one is in front of my eyes, I can't get over that hurdle in my heart.

"Master, Xiaoping wants to celebrate, and there is a banquet at home. Buying fish from outsiders is also buying. It's better to buy your own fish. I think you will leave fifty fish for my family first." Zhang Shuxue said with a broad hand.

Erchun knew that he would not be so easy to dismiss, so he took the conversation directly, "Fourth Uncle wants to buy it for Elder Sister, how can I do it? It's just that the wound on my grandfather's shoulder hurts again recently, and he is in a hurry to buy medicine with money, otherwise what? To be able to go fishing in such a cold weather, it is shameful to borrow a fishing net."

Erchun also believes that she understands what she said, Fourth Uncle won't understand, it's okay to buy it, just give cash directly, but no, it's his idea, take the fish and go, as for the money, he won't give it, what's the point of buying it, It's better to say take it and eat it.

This kind of thing has happened before, like the rice and meat that have been borrowed, as long as they can be borrowed, some say to give money and some say to pay back, but over the years, how can anyone pay back once or give money once? of.

In his previous life, Erchun was a fool. He was accused of being ungrateful by the village when he was taken advantage of. In this life, if the second master's family wanted to take advantage of their own family, that would be impossible.

"I'm talking to your grandfather, so you, a child, can't interrupt." Zhang Shuxue was an irritable person, and he was a gangster, and when he heard Erchun's words, he turned his face on the spot, looking like he wanted to go up and beat him.

Erchun was not afraid of his stare, "My family is just me and my grandfather, why can't I talk?"

"Fourth, if your family wants to use fish, you can take the cash, and if you don't have it, I can sell it on the market." Seeing his nephew treating his granddaughter like this in front of him, old man Zhang's face darkened at that time, "Xiaoping wants to pay respects, your young It's not like you don't know about the Li family and Erchun's affairs, so you can go home if you have nothing to do."

"Grandpa...it is the Li family who don't want Erchun, what does this have to do with Xiaoping." Zhang Shuxue stared at Erchun resentfully when he saw that Erchun had disturbed the situation, "Look at what you have done to Erchun. ? Who would dare to have her in the future?"

She didn't wink at all, she was clearly begging for help, and she kept accusing her granddaughter of being bad in front of her. Erchun felt sorry for such a person. The second master and mistress were shrewd all their lives, and unexpectedly raised such a son and let him have a grandson. For a shrewd daughter like Ping, God treats her well.

"What happens to my granddaughter is my business. You don't need to worry about it. You have to take care of your daughter at home. You are not childless. Let me tell you, the fourth child. From now on, you should stop staring and shouting at the second girl." , you are her uncle and not her father, I am not dead yet." Old man Zhang stared, and Zhang Shuxue lost all momentum.

"Master, I'm not doing this for the good of Erchun, and I won't talk too much if I'm not happy." Zhang Shuxue saved face for himself, "Now that Xiaoping is celebrating, the family has borrowed everything they can, and there is no money. Look at this fish money. Can you give it a few days later?"

"If my family doesn't fish, where will fourth master fish?" There is no way anyone can believe what such a person says.

"Ah, the rice is ready." Li Yanhong opened the door and called out at the right time.

Erchun didn't give him a chance to say more, "Master, hurry up, I don't care if your shoulder hurts at night after being out in the cold for a whole day."

He warned grandpa with his eyes again, not to let him respond, and then turned around and went back to the house.

"Grandpa, look at this girl, I know that Xiaoping and Li Tiezhu have been courteous, she feels uncomfortable..."

"Fourth, you should go back too." Old man Zhang interrupted him, not wanting to say more.

Anyway, nothing good can be heard from this nephew.

"That's okay, I'll go home and collect money." Zhang Shuxue left without saying a word, carrying the fish.

Even if the negotiation failed, he walked all the way home, still humming a ditty. In Zhang Shuxue's mind, the fish was the meat in their family's pot, and sooner or later it belonged to his family.

On the Zhang family's side, Erchun entered the house and saw that the rice in the pot was still hard, so he looked at Li Yanhong. Li Yanhong didn't think there was anything wrong with lying, "Why do you say that your fourth uncle won't listen to you? Grandpa to refuse."

Erchun snorted and didn't make a sound. Dare love this person also listened to everything outside the house. In fact, Li Yanhong didn't need to say it. Erchun also knew it was like this. She was not afraid that Grandpa would soften his heart, so she hurried to rush go out.

After taking the rice out of the pot, put the oil to saute and fry the rabbit meat in it. After adding water, Erchun peeled four potatoes and cut them into pieces, put them in, and put the rice pot on the curtain to steam. Cover the pot, leave Li Yanhong to light the fire, and rinse the laundry tub by himself.

Li Yanhong looked at it and said, "Bath again?"

Erchun's ears felt hot when he heard it, and he said without turning his head, "I want you to take care of it."

Li Yanhong chuckled, "Ah, you love to be clean."

This man was just looking for something to say, Erchun ignored him, put the kang table on the table after he finished his work, old man Zhang also entered the room, Li Yanhong's pot was boiling, and he was just waiting for dinner.

When Erchun collected the bowls and chopsticks and came in, he saw that grandpa was smoking on the kang in silence, so he knew he was still angry with fourth uncle, so he put down the bowls and chopsticks and persuaded softly, "Master, Erye's family only knows how to take advantage. It’s been like this all these years, why are you angry?”

"Erya, I'm free for a while, I'll drag someone to help you take a look at the house." Old man Zhang suddenly said.

Erchun was stunned for a moment, and then understood, "Master, I don't want to get married yet. Everyone thinks that I can't let Li Tiezhu go, and I don't want to make the Li family proud."

Old man Zhang nodded, "Yes, it's because grandpa thinks left. We can't let them be proud. My good granddaughter will definitely find a good one in the future."

"It's right to think so, wash your hands and eat." Erchun saw that although Grandpa didn't insist on talking about it, he didn't really feel relieved, so he reassured him, "Isn't the village going to come after a while?" Educated youth? They are all college students in the city, I will be one of them if I have a good one, and then I will find you a grandson-in-law who is also a college student in the city, which will be enviable."

"Yes, yes, yes." Old man Zhang smiled this time.

Erchun went to the outhouse to stir up the pot, and heaved a sigh of relief. Anyway, as long as grandpa is happy, she just said that she will not match her, and grandpa can't insist on saying anything. Feeling Li Yanhong looking at her, Erchun raised his head and looked over. Li Yanhong pursed his lips tightly with a serious expression on his face.
