Chapter 81 Returning to Mother’s Home 2
Each red envelope cost one cent, and more than ten cents were spent at once. It was so scary to see so many children!
After the group of children dispersed, a middle-aged man came out from the next room. When he saw Zhen Yue and Qiao Chao, he asked, "Are you back?"
"Yeah, Dad." This man is the original body's father. He should be less than fifty years old, but he looks like he is seventy.
It may be because there were many children in the family before, so it was more difficult and he looks a little old.
"sit down."
Zhen Yue and Qiao Chao were sitting on one side, while Zhen Yue's brothers and sisters-in-law had already learned from Zhen Yang that the Qiao family seemed to have made a lot of money, so their expressions looked much better than when the original body came here before.
"This is little Achu, right? Oh, so cute. Have you given it a name? What's it called? Come to your aunt to hug." Zhen Yue's sister-in-law Zhen Lin looked at the doll in Qiao Chao's hand.
Zhen Yue: "Junlin, call him Zhen Junlin." Zhen Yue asked Qiao Chao to hand the child over.
"Oh, this name is so nice." Everyone praised.
"Little sister, I heard that your family is making a lot of money now. What are you doing?" Zhen Yue's second sister-in-law Zhen Xie asked Zhen Yue and Qiao Chao.
As soon as these words came out, the others immediately looked over there, expecting to know from Zhen Yue and Qiao Chao how they made a lot of money.
Zhen Yue waved her hands, "How can we make a lot of money? It's all nonsense from outsiders. Our family still owes them a lot of money."
Zhen Xie: "But mother said that your family has bought a donkey cart." Moreover, she saw that the clothes worn by her younger sister and brother-in-law were actually very new. Not only that, the little kid was plump and white, and the clothes he wore were better than those worn by anyone in their family.
Zhen Xie felt a little jealous when she saw the red and blue embroidered tiger-head coat that little Achu was wearing. She wished her son could wear it. She couldn't help but touch it again and again. The fabric was really good.
Zhen Yue: "I borrowed money to buy those. Before that, I just grew some vegetables at home and sold them."
"Selling vegetables? Is anyone buying?" Everyone was very skeptical. Which household in the village doesn't grow vegetables?
Zhen Yue: "We took them to the county town to sell. We got up in the middle of the night, prepared the vegetables and went to the county town. We earned hard-earned money."
"Going so far?" Zhen Yue's elder brother Zhen Gong asked.
Zhen Yue suddenly looked at Zhen Gong pitifully, "Well, there is no other way to make money. Big brother, is there any extra money at home? Can you lend it to me to pay back the debt first?"
Before Zhen Gong could say anything, Zhen Yue's sister-in-law Zhen Lin said, "There is no money at home. You can see how hungry we are. Your little Ah Chu is well dressed, but my son's clothes are all patched up."
"Little sister? Did you bring any cloth with you this time? Your nephew has nothing to wear."
Zhen Yue: "Cloth is so expensive. We don't have that much money to buy it. We have to borrow money. Sister-in-law, you can also borrow money to buy it, or pawn your food. We pawned our food."
"What? Your family pawned the food?" Zhen Dawei, who had been sitting on the side without saying anything, looked at Zhen Yue and Qiao Chao angrily, "Qiao Dashan also allowed you to do this?"
Zhen Yue wiped the corners of her eyes and said, "There is nothing we can do about it. Our family owes so much money."
Zhen Lin: "But you look so well dressed."
Zhen Yue: "We are just pretending to be rich. Aren't we afraid that people outside will look down on us?"
Zhen Dawei pointed at Zhen Yue and said, "You really are...really are...you actually pawned the grain. Don't you know how important grain is? Don't your parents know how important it is? I heard that there's a disaster in the south, and the price of grain may go up soon. You actually dared to sell the grain. How much did you sell?"
Zhen Yue: "Not much, just more than half, barely enough for the family to eat this winter."
Zhen Dawei took a deep breath, "What an idiot!" He stood up and walked away, "I can't control you anymore. Don't come here if you don't have food."
Zhen Yue: ...Her father sounds like he is quite wise and knows the importance of food, but...he doesn’t seem to be very kind to his daughter. Otherwise, why would he tell her not to come over if she doesn’t have food to eat?
On the other side, Zhen Yang took the things that Zhen Yue brought to the kitchen. She immediately began to look around to see what was inside. In the end, she found only some radishes and greens, a piece of bacon, a pound of rice and flour, and a bag of peanuts and melon seeds?
Where is the good stuff? Is this the so-called good stuff?
Zhen Yang felt that she had been cheated, but she did not realize that Zhen Yue and the others brought more than twenty cents.
Zhen Yang came to the living room angrily, "Zhen Yue, come here!" She called out her name, which showed how angry she was.
As soon as Zhen Yue heard it, she knew that she must have rummaged through the basket and was dissatisfied with what was inside. When Zhen Yue stood up, Qiao Chao followed her, "Do you want me to go with you?"
Zhen Yue patted his shoulder and said, "No need, just stay here and look after the child." Several sisters-in-law had been staring at her son's clothes, and she was afraid that when the two of them came back, her son's clothes would have been stripped off.
Qiao Chao continued to sit back down. Zhen Yue followed Zhen Yangshi to the kitchen. Zhen Yangshi threw a piece of green vegetable at her, "Look what you brought back! Give me back the twenty cents."
Zhen Yue looked innocent, "Mom, what are you talking about? What money? Isn't that money used to buy things? I brought it all back."
Zhen Yangshi: "Look at what you brought with you?"
Zhen Yue: "How expensive are these vegetables and meat? Do you know how much this radish costs per pound? Do you know how much this green vegetable costs per pound? Do you know how expensive fresh green vegetables are in winter? And the meat, do you know how expensive that meat is? Each of these items costs more than twenty coins."
Zhen Yang's eyes widened: "Twenty cents? Do you think you don't have this radish at home? Is that the radish inlaid with gold?"
Zhen Yue nodded, "It's really a radish inlaid with gold. Let me tell you, my radishes are not your ordinary radishes. You will know after you take a bite."
Zhen Yang: "You are playing tricks on me, right?" Zhen Yang rushed over and wanted to hit Zhen Yue.
Zhen Yue dodged and said, "Mom, how do you know my radish is not good when you haven't even tasted it? Look at you, you are always anxious, you deserve not to make money. If you have nothing to do, I will leave."
Zhen Yang: "Wait a moment, give me the twenty coins."
Zhen Yue turned out two empty pockets and said, "I don't have any money. Didn't you say that the money was for your eldest grandson? And what I brought here are all good things. It's ok that you don't know the good things, but you ask me for money? What mother asks for money from her married daughter? Didn't we say before that daughters are like spilled water and have nothing to do with the Zhen family?"
"Mom, if you want money, just return the things in the backpack to me, and Qiao Chao and I will no longer be a bother to you. If people outside ask about it, I will say that mom won't let us go back to her parents' home because we don't give her money, and she wants us to sell everything we have to make good things."
Zhen Yue said as she was about to run out and ask Qiao Chao to go with her.
