Dress up as a farm girl and make a lot of money with space
Chapter 438: Where Did Old 2 Get His 8 Cents?
Old Mrs. Zheng also understood this truth, but understanding is one thing and being able to accept it is another.
"No matter what, the two of us are still here well, right? Why doesn't Li Erlang come to see us during the New Year? No matter what, it's Li Erlang who is unreasonable. I'm not afraid of what anyone says." Old Mrs. Zheng snorted and turned her head away to express her disdain.
Old Master Li didn't want to argue with her. It was impossible to reason with such a person. It would be better to say nothing and just accept what she said. Otherwise, there would be more trouble.
Li Erlang's absence had no impact on Mr. Li, he could accept it, and could even find a reason for Li Erlang's absence. But if it was Li Sanlang, then Mr. Li would not be able to accept it.
"What a bunch of conscienceless beasts! You shouldn't have agreed to split up the family in the first place. If you want to leave here, you should leave your life behind. After all, I gave birth to you and raised you, so it's only right that you give your life back to me!"
Old Mrs. Zheng didn't think that what she said was excessive at all. Instead, she became more and more complaining.
Mr. Li glanced at Mrs. Zheng and wanted to ask what was going on in this person's head.
"You just accepted the eight hundred coins that the second brother asked the third brother to send to you. If you feel uncomfortable and don't want to bother with the second brother, just give me the money now and I will send it back to the second brother." Grandpa Li said impatiently.
He looked at Old Lady Zheng, and as he spoke he stretched out his hand and asked her for the eight hundred coins.
But how could the money that had already been put into Mrs. Zheng’s pocket be spit out?
Although Mrs. Zheng felt that eight hundred coins was really too low, but a mosquito, no matter how small it was, was still meat, and she would rather miss it!
"This is what I deserve! Just eight hundred coins! I'm his biological mother, and I don't even know how much money I have to pay for my breastfeeding! What good can I do with this little money! But come to think of it, where did the second son get the money? This is eight hundred coins! They have only been separated and gone away for a few days? Even if the second son went up the mountain to hunt, he wouldn't be able to sell so much for, right?" Old Mrs. Zheng touched the money in her arms and suddenly remembered this very important thing.
After talking for a long time, Mrs. Zheng finally said something useful.
Mr. Li thought for a moment and said, "It should be the money from the third son's family, but I guess it must be loaned to the second son, not given to him. Even if the third son says no, the second son can't do it. Our second son is not that kind of person."
Neither Mrs. Zheng nor Mr. Li had ever thought that Li Mingyu and Li Erlang had private money. Li Mingyu was able to save the money because Li Mingxia wanted to help the poor girl and deliberately said less in front of others. As for Li Erlang, he was not doing it for himself. He just understood that in a place like the Li family's old house, if he didn't think of a way to help his daughter, then when his daughter got married, she would most likely not have a single penny on her, no dowry and no money. Such a girl would not be respected by anyone no matter who she married. Li Erlang could be a cowardly and honest man all his life, but he could not accept his daughter being bullied all her life.
After finally jumping out of a fire pit, Li Erlang would feel so sorry for his only daughter if she ended up suffering in another place.
At this moment, Li Erlang did not go up the mountain to hunt as Mr. Li and Mrs. Zheng had guessed, but was at home with Li Mingyu preparing things for a visit to Li Mingxia's house tomorrow.
Today is when the younger generations give gifts to their elders to wish them a happy new year. Tomorrow is when the younger generations will visit each other.
"Dad, this cake, plus a jar of wine, this cloth is for Third Aunt, these pairs of silk flowers are for Mingqiu and Mingdong, this purse and this jade bell are for Sister Mingxia, and my Third Uncle and Brother Zhengde and Brother Zhengpin each get a pair of shoes, how about that?"
Li Mingyu had been preparing these things since the separation. Thinking that he would deliver them tomorrow, he was still a little nervous, thinking about what else he could add.
Li Erlang nodded, "Just wait and see. You know what your Third Aunt and the others like."
After the separation, Li Erlang talked more and his personality became much more cheerful. He also knew that his daughter was sensible, so he left almost all the household affairs to Li Mingyu.
Li Mingyu smiled when he heard Li Erlang say this, looked at the things on the cabinet, packed a bag of his fried peanuts and put it in the pile of things.
"Sister Mingxia said that my fried peanuts are delicious, so I'll send some over." Li Mingyu muttered as he carefully picked up the jade bell, looked at it, and smiled with satisfaction.
She bought this jade bell for Li Mingxia at a shop in the town. It cost one and a half taels of silver. It would ring when you shake it gently. It was very delicate and cute. Li Mingyu felt that this jade bell was very suitable for Li Mingxia at the first sight. So she didn't feel sorry at all for spending the one and a half taels of silver. Instead, she felt it was worth it.
"Dad, what do you want to eat tonight? My sister Mingxia and I have learned a lot of dishes. I'll show you a few of my skills tonight. And the salted duck eggs my third aunt gave me can also be eaten as a dish tonight." After Li Mingyu put all the things back into the cupboard, he discussed with Li Sanlang what to eat in the evening.
In the past, Li Erlang just wanted to have enough to eat, but now he has started to think about how to eat well.
"It's all right. My daughter likes everything she cooks. How about I go find your uncle tonight and have a drink with him?" Li Erlang discussed with Li Mingyu.
The reason why Li Erlang didn't ask Zhang and the others to come together was because he felt that the place where he lived now was small, shabby and cold, and it was not easy to entertain so many people. After all, Li Sanlang was his younger brother and a grown man. It didn't matter where, as long as there was food and wine, it would be fine.
Li Mingyu knew what his father was thinking. "Ask my Third Aunt and the others to come along. I'll cook more food. Don't worry, Dad. My Third Aunt and the others are not that kind of people. They won't look down on us."
Li Mingyu said to Li Erlang with a smile.
If Li Mingxia and Zhang looked down on me, they wouldn't have helped me so much.
"It would be bad if you asked Uncle San to come over. Aunt San has never treated us as outsiders."
Hearing Li Mingyu say this, Li Erlang nodded. He was originally afraid that he would not entertain Zhang and the others well. Since his daughter said so, it must be okay. Li Erlang had no reason to object.
