Chapter 75 Take Home

   Wang Family,

   After lunch, Aunt Liu and Liu Zhihua chatted in the room.

  The sun was setting and the sky was getting dark, so Aunt Liu started to pack her clothes and prepare to go home.

   "Oh, I forgot to check the time when I was talking with you. Wei Qing has already returned, Zhihua, I will talk to you when I am free." Aunt Liu hurried out of the house.

  Liu Zhihua also went out, but for some reason, she went back to search in the closet. A few days ago, she sewed a purse with pieces of cloth. After finding it, she put a few large ingots in it, and then went out.

   Aunt Liu collected her clothes, and came out of the backyard with a tub in her hand to go home.

  Liu Zhihua came out with a purse, seeing that there was no one passing by outside the courtyard, she hurried over and handed it to Aunt Liu.

   "Hey, Zhihua, what are you doing, I don't want it." Aunt Liu hurriedly raised her hand and pushed it away.

Liu Zhihua was stronger than her, pressing the purse with one hand and stuffing the other into her arms, and said in a low voice with a smile: "It's not for nothing, I borrowed a lot of money from you in the early years, and you always said you forgot , I don’t even remember how much I owe after a long time, so I paid it back together today.”

   Aunt Liu touched the bulging purse, which was at least a few dozen taels bigger. She frowned and shook her head and said, "When did I borrow you so much? You are talking nonsense, I don't want it."

Liu Zhihua took her hand and refused to let her take out the money, and explained with emotion in her eyebrows and eyes: "We are living well now, and you helped us a lot back then, this is what should be given to you, as the saying goes It’s not difficult, and we’ll have to ask you to borrow it if we don’t have it in the future.”

  The two were arguing, and a few children in the room came out and lay down at the door to watch, looking at them with big delicate black eyes, and asked in a puzzled voice: "Mother, are you and auntie going to fight?"

  This made the two of them laugh, Aunt Liu smiled and said to Xiao Jiaojiao: "No fight, aunt is playing with your mother."

   "It's okay, my baby is going to play with my sister, and my mother is talking to my aunt." Liu Zhihua smiled.

  The children left, Liu Zhihua urged: "Take it quickly, don't let the children watch the fun, if you don't accept it, the two families will not move around in the future."

  Aunt Liu had no choice but to accept the purse.

  Liu Zhihua sent the person outside the courtyard and watched Aunt Liu leave.

  She looked at the intersection, wondering why the head of the family hadn't come back yet.

  With enough money, there should be no problems buying a carriage.

  Liu Zhihua didn't think too much, went to the kitchen to boil hot water in a big pot, and went back to the house to clean up the things that were not used at home.

  Tomorrow, go and pay the silver, and you will get the key.

   Pack it up early, it will be convenient when you move.

  Qiu Sheng will go to school tomorrow, and the children are playing in the big brother's room.

  The room was very lively, Xiao Li was carrying half a basket of dry soil clods in his basket, Erya was mixing the mud with a ladle of water, Qiu Sheng rolled up his sleeves and used a wooden ruler to carve the made clay objects.

  Jiaojiao hugged the cat and looked left and right, watching the elder brother draw the outline bit by bit, her eyes sparkling and she was very happy.

   "Mother, come out and help."

  Papa’s voice sounded outside the yard, and the children threw down the dirt excitedly and ran outside.

   "Dad!"

   "Father is back, I want to see the carriage!"

  Qiu Sheng also put down the wooden ruler, wiped his hands and walked out with a smile.

   In the yard,

  Wang Zhuangzhi walked in leading the carriage, stopped the carriage and hurriedly closed the door of the yard, heaved a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

   "Wow! What a big horse."

   "This carriage is really magnificent, I want to ride in it!"

  Wang Zhuangzhi saw Xiao Li climbing into the carriage as soon as he turned his head, he hurried forward to hug him down, frowned and said: "Father has business, don't make trouble, I will let you sit as much as you want tomorrow."

  Xiao Li pouted, but nodded obediently.

  Qiu Sheng held his younger brother in his arms and was also a little puzzled, wondering why he was not allowed to get in the car.

   "How can I help you, what did you buy?"

  Liu Zhihua came out of the house, took off her bib, and happily stepped forward to look at the magnificent carriage.

  Wang Zhuangzhi looked at the children, and said to the eldest son: "Qiusheng, you take your younger siblings into the house, and tell your mother if you have something to do."

   "What's the matter, it's so mysterious." Liu Zhihua smiled disapprovingly.

   Er Ya also said curiously: "Father, we don't want to talk nonsense, so you can talk quickly."

  After speaking, she covered Xiao Li's mouth again, and said, "Xiao Li doesn't talk nonsense."

  Xiao Li was at a loss, and obediently nodded his head and said "uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

  Jiaojiao glanced at the curtain of the carriage. She has very sensitive ears. She felt that there was someone in the carriage when she came out just now. Dad brought a person back, but why can't she tell.

  Wang Zhuangzhi hesitated to speak, and then said in a low voice: "I just rescued a person in the town. He passed out halfway, so I pulled him back."

"what!"

  Liu Zhihua exclaimed, Wang Zhuangzhi hurriedly pulled her to keep her voice down.

  Liu Zhihua walked beside the carriage with a frown, raised her hand and opened the corner of the curtain to look. Seeing that it was a dirty and smelly beggar, her complexion changed.

   "Wang Zhuangzhi, you,"

  Liu Zhihua angrily pulled the head of the family aside, and shouted in a low voice: "You have two money and forget who you are, there are so many beggars, can you help them?"

Wang Zhuangzhi didn't dare to explain the offending people in the town when he saw his mother's reaction, so he said in a low voice, "Don't be angry, the person has already been brought back, I'll get some medicine from Dr. Li in a while, and wait until he wakes up tomorrow." Then let go."

  Although Liu Zhihua was angry, she had already brought him home, so she had no choice but to carry him in with the head of the family.

   "Hey, you are not allowed to go to the kang!"

   "His clothes are dirty and smelly. They are my newly sewn bedding. I will find a mat and put him on the ground..."

  After a lot of tossing, the person was finally settled.

  Wang Zhuangzhi hurried to find Dr. Li, the water in the kitchen was almost burned out, Liu Zhihua told Qiusheng to take care of his younger siblings and stay away from the beggar.

  She hurried to the kitchen to watch the fire.

   In the house,

  Several radish heads stared at the beggar, Xiao Li squatted down and stretched out his finger to poke the man secretly, the next second the elder brother grabbed the collar of his back and slipped aside.

  Qiu Sheng nodded his forehead, "Don't get close, be careful that he wakes up and hurts you."

   Er Ya covered her nose and said in disgust, "This man has a bad smell, why did Dad bring a beggar home, what if he is a bad person?"

  Qiu Sheng was also a little puzzled. There are many beggars like this in the town who can go to the Charity Hall to receive rations. Why did Dad bring him back.

  Jiaojiao looked at the man in the ground, the skin under the tattered clothes was covered with black and blue, although he still had breath, he seemed to be dying.

  The breath on his body is clean, and he doesn't look like a bad person.

  Father went to Grandpa Li to get medicine for him, because he must not want him to die.

  Jiaojiao thought for a while, told her brothers and sisters to find her mother, and then walked outside with short legs.

  She went to the kitchen to find her mother and asked for a bowl and spoon. Liu Zhihua thought that Guaibao was thirsty, so she filled half a bowl of water and threw a piece of rock sugar into it, smiling and telling her to take it slowly.

  Jiaojiao obediently nodded and said yes, without explaining who to drink.

  Walking out of the yard, Jiaojiao took the bowl and went to the eldest brother's room. While no one was in the space, she asked Aque for some stream water, and then poured some into the bowl.

   After finishing all this, Jiaojiao happily carried the bowl to the main house.
