Bring your aunt to eat big meat, the scumbag father's family is furious
Chapter 302 Wow, money is falling from the sky
So, when being seen by Lu Guizi, Qiu was a little nervous.
She turned her back and hugged the box tightly in her hands.
"This is none of your business."
"Hehe, the Qiao family is so rich, so they must have at least ten taels. If it's less, they won't be able to afford it." Lu Quezi laughed twice, still staring at the box.
The box was wrapped in fine red cloth, and this piece of cloth alone was worth two hundred coins.
His mouth was watering as he was speculating.
"What does it have to do with you? You're meddling in everything and even come to someone else's doorstep. How shameless! Get out of here." Seeing him being so shameless, Mrs. Qiu scolded him.
"Alas, with such a large dowry, even if the grain-collecting teams don't come back to attack, in this world where food is scarce and bandits are everywhere, you'd better be careful."
"You don't need to be so kind. My money can't be stolen."
Qiu simply walked over and closed the gate.
In order to prevent Lu Quezi from seeing which room she put the silver.
But what Lu Guizi said made her feel uneasy.
The grain-collecting team has gone far away, but will he inform the bandits and steal her family's money?
Today was a good day and she was full of joy, but now a shadow has been cast over Qiu's heart.
Holding this box of betrothal money, I felt that it was not safe no matter where I put it.
Qiao Jian'er came out of Ling Yin's room. She had just heard someone shouting outside and vaguely heard some of the content. Then she saw Qiu's face like that.
"Auntie, what happened?"
Qiu sighed, "That lame Lu from the village is a wicked man. Last time the grain collectors came, someone hid some silver. Lame Lu secretly reported it to the collectors, causing great hardship to that family."
"Now that your family has come to propose marriage, he's set his eyes on the betrothal money. I originally wanted to put it in the house, but now I don't know where to put it."
"Just now, when Lu Quezi saw this box, although he didn't know the amount inside, he could guess that it was quite a lot. I'm afraid he won't be able to sleep well tonight."
"So I think, why don't you take the betrothal money back first and give it back when it's safe? If it falls into the hands of those thieves, wouldn't it be a waste of your kindness?"
Qiao Jian'er thought for a moment and said, "Aunt, you should keep it. I'll think of a way to deal with this lame Lu."
"What else can we do? As long as he has legs and a mouth, can walk and talk, he will definitely find a group of people to steal the betrothal money." Qiu's face was full of worry.
Qiao Jianer had already come up with an idea in her mind: "Aunt, you wait at home."
This time, the eldest brother also brought eight soldiers with him.
Qiao Jianer waved his hand and called four people over. He whispered some instructions to them and they nodded in understanding.
These soldiers realized that in the Qiao family, this girl was the backbone, and the leader listened to her, which indirectly meant that they also listened to him.
Qiao Jianer asked Qiu about the direction that Lu Quezi was going, and then went there.
Lu Quezi limped along the country path, humming a song, feeling very happy.
Of course, he would not report it to the grain collection team, but planned to gather a few people together and divide the money together when the time comes.
The box looked very heavy, it must be at least twenty taels. Thinking of this, he was overjoyed.
As he sang, he continued to talk to himself: "I don't have to work hard in the fields to make money, I am as happy as a god."
"Alas, the only thing a person needs to survive in this world is his brain. Without it, he can only work as a peasant, facing the earth and back to the sky."
"Now that the grain has been confiscated, being honest and doing good deeds is even less valuable."
"A bunch of idiots."
"Only a smart person like me will be blessed by God."
As Lu Quezi was speaking, he felt a flash of silver light before his eyes. He seemed to see something on the ground. He rubbed his eyes and looked, and his eyes suddenly widened.
That was a large ingot of silver, at least ten taels.
Lu Quezi looked around immediately and saw that there was no one around him. He almost knelt down and said in surprise.
"Good fortune has come my way! Oh, God, you are so good to me, Lü Quezi."
As he spoke, he ran over nimbly, picked up the silver, brushed it with his sleeve, and took a big bite of it.
it is true.
Lu Quezi quickly put it in his arms.
"Oh, why can't I find my silver? Where did I lose my silver?" An anxious voice came.
Lu Quezi saw a little girl coming from the side and searching on the ground.
The girl looked at him and said, "Uncle, did you find a silver coin here?"
"No, no, if you really lost the silver, it would have been picked up by someone long ago. How could it be my turn?"
As Lu Quezi spoke, he held his arms tightly.
Qiao Jian'er looked at his hand and said, "Uncle, you're hiding it. I wonder if you picked it up? We were taught to be honest and moral since we were young. If we find someone else's things, we have to return them. Otherwise, it will be considered illegal gains and will not count."
Lu Quezi only felt that the girl's eyes contained some kind of insight, and he suddenly felt a little flustered.
"No, don't talk nonsense, you little girl. Did you see my fist as big as a sandbag? How dare you frame your grandfather? I will beat you so hard that you won't be able to stop."
As he spoke, he showed his fist.
Qiao Jian'er looked at the fist, which was like Lu Quezi's left leg, atrophied and underdeveloped, not much bigger than hers. She couldn't help but burst out laughing, and immediately returned to a serious expression.
"I'm sure I lost my silver here, and I only walked a few steps, so it's impossible for someone else to pick it up."
"Did you find it? Why don't you show me what's in your arms? My silver has a special mark on it that can be easily identified."
Qiao Jianer took two steps towards Lu Quezi, with a sense of approach.
For some reason, even though he was facing a little girl, Lu Quezi felt scared and couldn't help but step back.
But when he thought that the other person was just a young girl, he could pick her up with one hand and throw her far away, so he was afraid of nothing.
I immediately felt full of energy.
"I said I didn't pick it up, so I didn't pick it up. You little brat, dare to question me? If you don't get out of my sight, I will kill you." Lu Quezi showed a ferocious look on his face.
"You don't want to show me the things because you feel guilty." Qiao Jian'er continued to walk towards Lu Quezi, his eyes flashing with coldness.
A dagger suddenly flashed out from one hand, cutting hair with a sharp blade and piercing the bones with its cold light.
She raised the dagger.
"No, don't come over."
Lu Quezi became afraid again. His stronger left hand was holding the silver in his arms, and his other hand was no match for the man with the knife, and his leg was lame.
In a hurry, he quickly freed his left hand, and as he did so, a large piece of silver fell from his arms.
