Chapter 69 Leave Silver

   "Oh, okay, I'll go right away."

  Wang Zhuangzhi simply put the money bag on the table, smiled heartily with Mu Kuan, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Brother-in-law, sit down and rest for a while, my roast chicken is a must, wait for a while to eat."

   After speaking, Wang Zhuangzhi rolled up his sleeves with a smile and walked out the door.

  The two women in the room were chatting, Mu Kuan couldn't sit still, he greeted Liu Zhihua with a smile, then got up and went after Wang Zhuangzhi.

   "Brother-in-law, I often cook when I go to sea these years, I will help you too..."

The two went out one after the other. Xiuhua listened to her husband's words, smiled emotionally and said to her sister: "Mu Kuan treats me very well. I have been unwell for so many years, and he handles many things at home. He does the cooking. The craftsmanship is better than mine, and I don’t know where I got such great luck.”

"Grandma used to say back then that what is bitter in the front is always sweet in the end. Mu Kuan is a good person. Seeing that he is an honest and righteous person, my sister is really happy for Xiuhua." Liu Zhihua patted her sister with a smile hands.

  My heart is full of emotions, my sister has suffered such a great crime, if no one feels sorry for her, she would have committed suicide a long time ago, fortunately, God is open.

   "Water is coming!"

  At the door, Erya happily walked in with two bowls of water, and Jiaojiao behind her carefully held a bowl.

   "Ouch, baby, be careful and stir."

  Liu Zhihua went to take the bowl from Jiaojiao's hand, while Qiusheng and Mu Cheng helped Erya take the two full bowls of water from Erya's hand.

  Liu Xiuhua got up and came over, took a hand and said with a smile: "Sister has such handsome and sensible two daughters, which is really enviable. Thank you Erya and Jiaojiao for bringing water to Auntie."

   "You're welcome, Aunt Xiu, you are not feeling well, please sit down."

   Erya carefully took Aunt Xiu to a seat. She didn't forget that she was scared the first time she saw her at Mu's house. Mother said that Aunt Xiu was seriously ill. Although she didn't look so scary now, she still had to be careful.

   "Aunt Xiu, drink water quickly."

  With her soft, white and waxy face, she pointed at the water for Aunt Xiu to drink. She put spirit whiskers in the water, and Aunt Xiu would recover from her illness after drinking it.

  Xiuhua's heart softened when she heard that, she smiled sincerely and touched their heads, and said with emotion: "Every one of them is so caring, I really want to take these two parents home and raise them."

   "You are their aunt, if you miss them in the future, I will bring the children to your house to live with you for a few days to satisfy your hunger." Liu Zhihua said with a smile.

   "This idea is good, sister, you can't break your promise..."

  Xiuhua was smiling, feeling someone pulling her sleeves, she looked down at the water on the table with her petite fleshy fingers, her **** eyes were watery looking at her, she looked like an aunt who was about to drink water.

  Xiuhua saw this, smiled and picked up a bowl of water on the table and drank it. She was indeed thirsty after running all the way. The water in her mouth was sweet, and she drank the bowl of water in one gulp.

  Xiuhua wiped her mouth, smiled and said to her sister: "This is the first time I came to my sister's house. I don't know whether it's because of happiness or something. I think the water is extraordinarily sweet."

   "Look at you, a bowl of water makes you happy, and later there will be your brother-in-law's specialty roast chicken, the skin is so crispy and crispy that you drool." Liu Zhihua said.

   "Hahaha, then I have to wait to eat."

  Niang chatted happily with Aunt Xiu, and Erya gave her eldest brother and Mu Cheng winks, and led the younger brothers and sisters to slip out of the yard together.

  In the kitchen, Wang Zhuangzhi was boiling water for cooking, while Mu Kuan was chopping firewood in the yard.

  Although they are two big men, they work neatly and neatly.

  As soon as Erya arrived at the yard, she looked at Mu Cheng curiously, then scratched her chin, and asked in a low voice, "Mu, cousin, how is your face? Is the doctor who treated you very good?"

  Mu Cheng was taken aback for a moment, then explained with a smile: "Without a doctor, these scars on my face are strange to say, and they are getting lighter day by day. Maybe it's because my family has good food in the past two days, so I can heal on my own."

   Er Ya's excited heart was suddenly poured with cold water. She sighed and curled her lips, and replied: "Oh, so it is like this."

   "Cousin Erya, what's the matter with you?" Mu Cheng asked with concern.

   Erya tugged at her shofar braid irritably, and said to him seriously: "If you call Erya, call Erya, and if you call Cousin, call Cousin. Cousin Erya is so ugly."

  Mu Cheng choked, "I,"

   "Baby, my sister will take you to watch the hens lay eggs." Erya walked towards the backyard with Jiaojiao in her arms.

  Mu Cheng scratched his forehead in confusion, and Qiu Sheng said to him embarrassedly: "Don't blame my cousin, Er Ya has always been outspoken, I will apologize to you on her behalf."

  Mu Cheng quickly waved his hand, "Cousin doesn't need it, I don't care about it, I just feel that Erya is unhappy and seems to be hiding something, I'm not angry."

  Qiu Sheng looked at him puzzled, and explained with a smile: "Erya has a lively and cheerful personality, and her moods also fluctuate. There is something hidden there."

  Xiao Li watched her sister go away, and retorted in a low voice: "That's not true, my sister's face is black, those annoying ghosts in the village laugh at my sister, my sister wants to turn white."

  Qiu Sheng and Mu Cheng were both taken aback when they heard that, Mu Cheng suddenly realized, and said in a low voice: "My cousin asked about my face, thinking it was cured by the doctor, probably she wanted to ask me about the doctor."

  Qiu Sheng pursed his lips and said nothing. He felt a little uncomfortable when he heard what the younger brother said. He often reads and was away from home. Arya was always lively, active, intelligent and cheerful in front of them.

  He took this matter to heart, thinking that in two days, he would go to the academy to inquire about Brother Baokang. His family is in the rouge and gouache business, and there must be something that can make his face whiter.

  …

After dinner, the Mu family was leaving. Liu Zhihua originally wanted to keep them to stay for one more night, but Xiuhua needed to take medicine, and the medicine was kept at home. Tomorrow, I will take Mu Cheng to the town to visit the master of the school, there are many things to do in these two days.

  Liu Zhihua didn't try to keep it, but the money bag was pushed back and forth again, Liu Zhihua was afraid that Xiuhua would think too much, so she finally decided to accept it, and there were eighty taels in it.

   It happened that money was urgently needed to buy a yard, Liu Zhihua didn't think about taking advantage, and looked for opportunities to return it when she was free in the future.

  Send off the Mu family,

  Liu Zhihua led the children back to the house with an empty heart. After working for a long time, she put the children on the kang to rest for a while.

  Xiao Li stepped on something and hurt his foot, crying in pain, Liu Zhihua lifted the quilt, only to find four big silver coins stuffed under the quilt.

   "Wow, it's silver." Xiao Li said excitedly pointing at the silver with tears still in his eyes.

  Liu Zhihua hurriedly picked it up and took a look, it was exactly the size of the ingot that Xiuhua had given to Qiusheng and Xiao Li earlier, the four together would be fifty or sixty taels.

  Liu Zhihua held the money bag in one hand and the silver in the other, her eyes were wet, she sighed and said, "Xiuhua wants to help our family."
