The fierce wife is the happy head of the family

Chapter 177 Raising Money
Under everyone's care, Grandma Zhou recovered quickly.When she walked out of the room refreshed, even she couldn't believe that she could live for so long.She stood by the big tree in the yard, touched the trunk of the big tree, and murmured, "That's great."

After being ill this time, she felt that she could live another ten or eight years. At that time, Xiaoqiao had grown up, and she had nothing to worry about when she left. She pressed the big tree and thought of planting this tree with her husband back then. Unknowingly, decades have passed, and the big tree has grown over the courtyard, but there is no one accompanying her. She smiled, "Old man, are you protecting me?"

"Grandma Zhou got up so early." Gao Dou'er came out with a basin for dirty clothes, Qinglu went to cook, and the laundry was in her hands. , many things do not do.

"Dou'er!" Granny Zhou chuckled, and when she saw her clothes corner in the basin, she rushed over, "Dou'er, I'll wash our clothes."

"Grandma Zhou, you are not in good health yet, don't use cold water." Gao Douer dodged and dodged, and Grandma Zhou wanted to go to grab her, but Gao Douer was quick and dodged.At this moment Cai Lingli came out, and seeing the scene, she joked, "Grandma Zhou, there are only two clothes, you just let Gao Douer wash them."

"Then why are you so embarrassed?" Grandma Zhou felt sorry for spending a lot of money on them these few days, and she really couldn't afford to pay them back.

"What's so embarrassing?" Cai Lingli yawned, "You are the elder, and we are the younger generation. The younger generation does things, and the elder rests. This has been the principle since ancient times." Gao Douer sat there washing clothes, She washed everyone's clothes for a few days.

"You are really good people." Grandma Zhou murmured, wondering if asking for 3000 taels from the shop outside is too much?Seeing that they are dressed plainly, they don't look like rich people. Maybe they are taking the warm route, so they want to save a few hundred taels of silver?It is imperative to be on guard against others, Grandma Zhou has encountered too many villains, it is normal for her to think of them this way.

After dinner, Grandma Zhou said that she should go to the county government to transfer the ownership of the store.The four said they wanted to go back, but Grandma Zhou didn't say anything.

The four returned to the residence, lifted the bed, dug the floor, and took out the small jar inside. There lay Gao Douer's savings of 200 taels for many years, Cai Lingli's unspent pocket money of 400 taels, and Mrs. Lin's gift. The 600 taels of Qinglu self-defense (mostly banknotes) is far from enough.

"Qinglu, we only got 200 taels of silver, and there is still 800 taels short, where can we get it?" Cai Lingli flicked her sleeves, "I dare not sell jewelry, I am afraid that my mother will scold me, and I dare not talk to you. Grandpa and dad asked for money, and they objected many times.”

They worry about money, but they don't think that the money put on ordinary people is astronomical. Some people can't earn a few hundred taels in their lifetime.

"Can I say a word?" Xiaozi raised her hand weakly, everyone nodded, she chuckled, and took out a few silver notes from the bottom of her clothes, "I have 200 taels of silver notes, I bought them a long time ago. I want to say that I want to join you too, but I'm afraid that I have too little money and you will look down on me, haha."

"Xiao Zi, you are so rich." Cai Lingli grabbed the banknote and looked at it, and threw it into the small jar, "I am the master, I opened a shop, and Xiao Zi is also one of the owners."

"Xiaozi, have you saved so much money?" Qinglu was very surprised. She knew that Xiaozi was greedy and always secretly went to buy some snacks. She had been caught many times. Logically speaking, she couldn't save much money .

"Madam loves me, she gives me a lot." Xiaozi chuckled and suddenly felt embarrassed, "My brother Cai Qi will also give me some money to buy food."

"Xiaozi, your brother is so kind to you." Cai Lingli slapped Xiaozi fiercely, and Xiaozi fell to the ground in fright. Gao Douer pushed Cai Lingli away, and Cai Lingli pretended to cry, "Why didn't I meet you?" Such a good brother? You are not your own, hmph, my brother Cai Liang, other than he likes to watch me joke and bully me, I can’t think of anything good about him.”

"Damn girl, you can be content, I don't have a brother yet." Gao Douer poked Cai Lingli lightly on the head, "Your brother loves you, you just can't see it, don't be in the blessing and don't know the blessing." .”

"It's impossible to bargain with Granny Zhou. She looks very determined." Qinglu said to herself and let out a sigh of relief. All she could think of was Lin Zhihe. There was a reason for the incident, so she could only borrow it first. Standing up, "I'll go back and borrow some money from my elder brother. You guys are waiting for me here. I'll be back soon." Then he ran away.

"Qinglu." Gao Dou'er stood up, she didn't want to owe Lin Zhihe money.

"Stand still!" Cai Lingli pulled Gao Dou'er down and sat down, "We are borrowing, and we will return the money when we get it. It's not stealing or robbing. Why are you so nervous?"

"I" Gao Dou'er didn't know how to respond.

"Besides, Brother Lin is rich, and Qinglu is his sister, so he must have borrowed it." Lin Zhike's face flashed in Cai Lingli's mind, and she couldn't help laughing like a nympho, "Brother Zhike is probably willing to lend it to us too." Yes, hehehehe." Then he entered his own world.

"People are avoiding you." Gao Douer patted Cai Lingli on the head. For some reason, she has been a little irritable recently and likes to hit people.

"I know." Cai Lingli pouted, and sat aside without speaking.

Qinglu rushed all the way to Lin's house, she rushed to the study, Lin Zhihe stood up before she could say anything, "What's wrong?" He thought Gao Douer had been taken away again.Gao Douer avoids him, he knows it better than anyone else, he has been negotiating with Master Zhou about Qinglu and Zhou Wenqian's marriage these days, he was busy so he didn't go to them, he just took a break, he planned to spend two days Go and see them.

"Brother, we want to buy a shop and a house. You can lend me 1000 taels of silver, and we will return it to you when we earn money." Qinglu said bluntly. She walked to the table, spread out the paper, and wrote the IOU in it. .

"We brothers and sisters, what are you talking about borrowing? Just give it to you." Lin Zhihe took out a few banknotes from the drawer and handed them to her. She signed them and pressed her fingers and handed them to Lin Zhihe, "It is a loan, no Here." He didn't go to pick up the bank note.

"Okay, it's a loan." Lin Zhihe chuckled, took the receipt and threw it aside, before Qinglu went to pick up the bank note.

"You have made up your mind to do something big." Lin Zhihe said softly, "Or, if I become the big boss, you won't have to pay back the money."

"It's a good idea." Qinglu didn't want to say, "You rich man, why are you robbing us ordinary people for your business? This shop is set up by me, Gao Douer, Cai Lingli, and Xiaozi. The number of people is full, so it's nothing. The location of the owner."

"Okay." Lin Zhihe chuckled, this way, he had even more reason to show up, presumably Gao Douer would no longer avoid him.Loving someone is so tormenting, it's the first time he feels so frustrated in life, but he has a lot of ways to make Gao Douer like him.

"Let's not talk anymore, let's go." Qinglu took the silver ticket and went back, ran into Chen Lihua and Sankecai on the way, and asked a few casually whether she was used to living there.

They obviously didn't notice Qinglu's absent-mindedness, but what was on their minds was so obvious. They sat at the Lin's house every day, occasionally met a few Lin Zhi and business friends, and watched some women marry early and have children. When the days are good, their idle hearts will rise, and their desire to get married will become more profound.Sankecai pushed Chen Lihua, and Chen Lihua took Qinglu aside, and said in a low voice, "Qinglu, you, do you have it? Uh?" Notice the good guy?This sentence couldn't be said no matter what, Sankecai was in a hurry, and they probably wouldn't be able to say it.

"Auntie, I'm busy. If you have something to tell Si Niang, she will help you." Qinglu didn't think too much about it, she patted Chen Lihua's shoulder with a pretentious mind, "Let's go." Hurry up He took two steps, stopped in front of Sankecai, "Listen to Si Niang, don't cause trouble for me." He left.

"Auntie." Ercai grabbed Chen Lihua who came over, "She won't forget what grandpa said, right?" That's right, they always thought that Chen Shengcai asked them to come to work in the city to find a man to marry.This can't be blamed on them. They are sixteen or seventeen years old and haven't decided on a family yet. If they are older, no one will want it. Even if someone wants it, it is a bad family. If you want to marry a rich man, the best way out is Be concubines for rich people, but they don't want the life of concubines.

"Qinglu seems to be very busy, what is she busy with?" Chen Lihua, as an elder, set herself a calm look.

"Auntie, we are not young anymore, we don't want country boys, and we don't know many people in the city. After a day, I lose my youth. I don't want to marry an old man in his seventies and eighties." Ercai said. , the big and small dishes are a little more indifferent.

"But, father told me to listen to Qinglu." Chen Lihua bowed her head in thought.

"Oh, sister Qinglu hasn't seen anyone for three or two days, it's hard for her to think about us." Er Cai was anxious again.

"Then what should I do?" Dacai said a nonsensical remark, and her slow-paced appearance was really annoying, Ercai looked at her angrily.

At this age, I hate getting married.Zhong Ye heard them talking when he came out, and walked out with emotion, and said to them, "If you want to marry a good family, you must have basic skills, otherwise, even if you are lucky enough to marry, life will be difficult." As you wish."

"Si Niang!" Sankecai shouted.

"Sister Zhong Ye." Chen Lihua said.Zhong Ye is Tang Anhe's nominal fourth wife, and Chen Lihua is Tang Anhe's sister-in-law. It is very embarrassing to address her.Qinglu asked them to listen to Zhong Ye, and Zhong Ye asked Chen Lihua to call herself her sister, and Chen Lihua followed suit.

"It's not easy to marry a rich man. I'll teach you some basic etiquette and knowledge. You have to study hard, you know?" Zhong Ye was kind.

"Yes." Chen Lihua nodded to Sankecai, no matter how hard it was, they were willing to learn.Zhong Ye smiled with satisfaction, but he knew in his heart that they had never suffered, and they couldn't hold on for long.
