The cannon fodder female supporting role stirs up trouble in period literature
Chapter 140 Tracking
Liu Chang'e pretended to be really helpless with Hua Rendong, "Alright, alright, it's just a betrothal gift, right? I'll ask the Du family to give you a hundred yuan, is that enough? Don't be too greedy. If you ask for too much betrothal gift, it will give people something to talk about, and you won't have a good life after you marry her."
Hua Rendong smiled, "Look at what you said, you don't sound like a mother at all? You sound like someone sent by the in-laws. How much do you want to give as a betrothal gift? You don't even need to ask what they think?"
Liu Chang'e was speechless for a moment. She originally thought that as long as Hua Rendong was willing to marry her, she would take the two thousand yuan from the Du family and at most give one hundred yuan to Hua Rendong. She didn't expect that she was too anxious and her attitude made Hua Rendong see the flaw.
She hurriedly tried to make up for it, saying, "I don't want the Du family's dowry. It's not like I'm selling my daughter. But if you insist, I'll make up for it on behalf of the Du family."
Hua Rendong laughed sarcastically, but didn't bother about the gift. She looked at Du Xu and said, "When you look at a couple, besides looking at the person, you also have to look at the family, right? Since you think so highly of me and want to get a marriage certificate with me, and you've seen my home, shouldn't you take me to your home to have a look?"
Du Xu was a little panicked, but soon calmed down, "You are right, we should go to their home to check it out, but my parents are not at home these two days, so you won't be able to see them if you go there. It is better to get the certificate first, and then you can see them when my parents come back."
Hua Honeysuckle smiled wryly, "I'm only here to see your family conditions, not just to see your parents. Is it inconvenient for you to take me to your home to have a look?"
Du Xu was sweating a little, but he tried to remain calm and said, "What's the inconvenience? It's just that if I go to see it now, it will be too late to get the certificate later."
"Why are you in such a hurry? If you can't make it today, you can go tomorrow. If you can't make it tomorrow, you can go the day after tomorrow. It's not like someone in your family will not survive today and will not be able to rest in peace until they see our marriage certificate, right?"
"Not really. How about I take you home in the morning, take a look and then we can go get the certificate."
Hua Rendong thought for a moment and nodded, "That's fine. Anyway, I'm the only one at home now. My mother, who ran away with the money, didn't lie in bed and wait until I got the marriage certificate before she could close her eyes. Then come pick me up tomorrow morning and I'll go home with you to take a look."
Du Xu breathed a sigh of relief, said a few more words and left in a hurry.
Liu Chang'e didn't want to leave, but Du Xu pulled her and she left reluctantly.
Looking at the backs of the two people walking and talking intensely, Hua Rendong suddenly had a thought: could that person be the little puppy raised by Liu Chang'e?
If he looked like this, it would be understandable why Liu Chang'e, a morally corrupt woman, was willing to sell her daughter to support him.
Black Wing in the distance gestured towards Honeysuckle, and after the two men passed by him, he quietly followed them.
After the three people, two in front and one behind, disappeared, Tiezhua pulled Hua Rendong to follow. Although Fang Zimo didn't know what they wanted to do, he followed them as well.
"Sister Erhua, seeing that man has such a good relationship with your mother, he can't be a good guy. You can't marry him."
Hua Honeysuckle nodded, and she felt very fond of this child who was young but had a strong sense of justice.
Tiezhua didn't recognize Fangzi Mo, and when he saw him following him, he asked, "Why are you following me?"
Fang Zimo patted his chest and said, "That man is obviously a liar. He is even trying to deceive my sister Erhua. I must come over to help. I will arrest him and send him to jail."
Tiezhua smiled and said, "Little friend, you are really not needed here."
Fang Zimo looked Tiezhua up and down several times, "Who are you calling little boy? How much older are you than me?"
"But I'm working, and you're still spending your family's money, right?" Tiezhua was indeed not older than Fangzi Mo, but she had been in the department for several years and usually came into contact with people older than her. She considered herself an old comrade, and when facing Fangzi Mo, she couldn't help but treat him like a junior.
Speaking of this, Fang Zimo was no longer so confident and simply ignored Tiezhua, "Sister Erhua, I'm worried about you."
Hua Rendong didn't know how she had won the favor of this kid. Anyway, she didn't dislike him, and it wouldn't be dangerous if she followed him. So she smiled at Tiezhua and said, "Let him follow."
Tiezhua shrugged and said indifferently: "Then follow me and broaden your horizons."
Fang Zimo made a face at her, earning a roll of the eyes from Tiezhua, "Childish!"
The three of them walked together for a short distance before they saw a chalk print at the foot of a wall at a three-way intersection that looked like half a wing.
Tiezhua took a look and pointed in a direction, "That way."
Honeysuckle compared the wing with the chalk mark and found that the tip of the wing was pointing in the direction of the iron claw. It seemed that she would have to learn some symbols in the department in the future.
However, it was not so troublesome for her to track people. Just like at this moment, she used her special abilities to transmit messages through flowers, plants and trees, and she could hear clearly the conversation between Liu Chang'e and the man.
Liu Chang'e asked: "Are you really going to take her to the Du family? Aren't you afraid of being exposed?"
The man said, "If I don't take her with me, will she get the marriage certificate? If I don't get the marriage certificate, will the Du family give me the money? That's two thousand yuan, enough for us to live happily for several years."
Liu Chang'e thought of the money that she had agreed with the Du family, and her eyes were full of anticipation. "Okay, let's make an agreement with the Du family and ask them not to let anyone know."
"The Du family's old couple are not stupid. Their whole family is so ugly. In order to marry a beautiful wife and have a beautiful baby, they will never speak nonsense."
Hua Jindong was extremely angry. Is this really something a mother could do?
Finally, Liu Chang'e and the man stopped in front of a tube building.
Several elderly women were talking in front of the building. When they saw the two people coming, one of them shouted upstairs, "Du family, your relatives are here."
Someone upstairs responded and popped a head out from the third floor. Seeing the two people downstairs, he happily called for people to come up.
After Black Wing and the others went upstairs, they walked over to the women and greeted them with a smile, "Aunt, auntie, what are you talking about?"
Several women looked at him warily, but Black Wing was not annoyed. He first looked around carefully, then took out a bundle of nylon stockings from his body mysteriously, "Auntie, auntie, I'm from the sock factory. This is a new batch of socks from our factory. I was asked to come out to see how everyone responds. If the response is good, we will put it into large-scale production.
I see that you all know what you are talking about, so I want you to try these socks. I am giving them to you. Can you give me your opinions on whether they are comfortable to wear or not? "
When they heard that it was going to be a gift of socks, the women couldn't believe such a good thing. But who wouldn't want to take advantage of something for free? Since there was no money anyway, how could he dare to come and rob?
Several women snatched all the socks from Hei Yi's hand, one each. One of them was quick enough to grab two pairs and took off her shoes to try them on right in front of Hei Yi.
Smelling the pungent smell, Black Wing silently took two steps back. It was really too choking.
