Chapter 42 Searching the house
"Mom, that's right. We are the only ones who have to tremble when we meet strangers in the town. How can we do business?"
After Wang finished speaking, she quietly gave Qian a look.
Mr. Qian and Ms. Wang are fighting for each other. After getting along for so many years, they both understand each other.
Of course you know what that look means?
So, he smiled and said to the old lady:
“That’s right, mother, didn’t you say that if you didn’t have a sister-in-law when you went to town this time, our dried mushrooms would be so much worse than others.
It's definitely not easy to sell, let alone buy so many things back. "
Su Qiumei did not expect that after calling Li Qingluo, everyone would point their fingers at her, and she frowned slightly.
Everyone said that their daughter was good, so the old lady was naturally happy.
She wants her daughter to become a businessman because of their rip-offs, and she will be relegated to a lowly status in the future.
My daughter’s future children will not have the opportunity to take the scientific examination. If she doesn't take the scientific examination, how will her daughter be the mother of an official in the future?
If she cannot be the mother of an official, how will her daughter be able to have a group of servants to serve her in the future?
Or if she becomes a lowly citizen, will her daughter still have a chance to marry into a wealthy family?
Thinking of this, how could the old lady be willing to do it? He stretched out his hand and pointed at several wives and cursed:
"Everyone eats the food inside and outside, and for your own benefit, you take your sister-in-law out to support you?
Okay, if no one is doing this profitable business, then we won’t do it anymore and forget about it because you are so poor.
From now on, don’t even think about eating the meat bought at home. It’s my daughter’s hard-earned money. "
"Mom, we didn't mean that."
How can I not eat meat in the future? The meat was so delicious last night, but she could only taste one piece.
When the meat enters the mouth, it enters the stomach before you can taste the taste of the meat carefully.
"That's right, mother, if we don't do big business or become merchants, just like selling dried mushrooms, we don't need to be registered as merchants."
Qian also hurriedly comforted the old lady. She was still thinking about the piece of meat that the old lady took away last night.
Although you won't make a lot of money, at least your family's life will be much easier.
It would be nice for them to have meat every few days. Maybe his family is rich and he still has the opportunity to study?
"Okay, let's wait until the things are finished." The old lady looked at Li Qingluo:
"From the Third Brother's family, I heard that you got the money the day you went to town. Don't lie to us. Someone saw a soldier giving you money, saying that it was sent back to the family by someone else.
Hurry up and take out the money. All the money at home should be put here with me. If you just take it without asking, that's called stealing, and it's like sitting on a fence. "
Li Qingluo understood that this was the purpose of calling her here.
What did the old lady say that both offended her and threatened her? Unfortunately, they didn't know that she and Ling'er had never been to the town at all.
Li Qingluo looked surprised and looked a little anxious:
"Mom, are you telling the truth? If that's true, let's go find that person quickly. The Su family's money may have been defrauded by that person."
She looked very angry again: "No wonder when I went to town, there were no soldiers left. When I asked a woman, she said we were late.
The woman also told me that the money earned by the soldiers was given to the soldiers every month, and the court did not provide any subsidies to the families of the soldiers.
Where can any soldier give me money? I don’t know which one is so wicked and talks nonsense. Did you see it with your own eyes? Is he blind?
Originally, I wanted to ask a few more people, but the clouds in the sky turned dark, so I didn't dare to stay any longer and came back quickly.
If you don't go home quickly, getting caught in the rain and cold will be fatal.
As you know, Ling'er and I don't have a single coin in our hands.
If we really get caught in the rain and get cold, who will give us, mother and daughter, money to hire a doctor?
In the past few days, Ling'er and I have been caught in the rain, cold, and injured.
Mom, didn’t you give us money for medical treatment? "
Speaking of this, the old lady felt a little uncomfortable again.
Li Qingluo didn't seem to notice the old lady's discomfort. She thought for a moment:
"Is that the person who saw us orphans and widowed mothers and thought we were being bullied? So he told lies to set us up." After speaking, he covered his face with his hands and his shoulders twitched slightly.
"Third brother and sister, stop pretending. If you don't have money, will you not work for the family or eat from the family?"
Seeing her man's distressed expression, Mrs. Wang became angry.
"Second sister-in-law, if you don't believe it, you can search it. The house is only so big."
After saying that, he stood up and turned around to go out: "I'll help Ling'er out so that you can search carefully later."
After crossing the threshold, Li Qingluo's voice came into the room again: "Who is so blind and blind? Such a wicked person is talking nonsense. This kind of person will definitely have a son without blindness in the future."
"Mom, what should we do now?"
Seeing Li Qingluo disappear, Qian looked at the old lady and had no idea.
She never expected that Li Qingluo would say that wind is like rain.
"Did she really not get the money?" When Wang heard Li Qingluo's curse, she believed Li Qingluo.
Everyone knows that the theory of ghosts and gods is deeply rooted in people's hearts here, and generally no one would do such things casually, such as cursing and swearing.
"What else can we do? Follow us quickly. If you really have money, you are late and you don't know where the money has been collected?"
The old lady also stood up as she spoke. She was worried about these two stupid wives. She wanted to follow them and have a look.
After walking a few steps, he turned around and pulled Su Qiumei with him.
Although the old lady was also doubtful because what she said just now confused her, she still wanted to see it to be believed.
Just afraid, what if Li Qingluo really got the money and hid it again?
As soon as Li Qingluo entered the room, he let Su Ling out and quickly told her what happened just now.
She just helped the "weak" Su Ling up from the bed. The old lady took Qian and the others to the door.
"Mom, be gentle when searching. The things are already very worn. If they are broken, I will ask you for money to buy them again."
After hearing Li Qingluo's words, Wang, who had just rolled up his sleeves and prepared to "do something big", instantly lost his momentum.
Isn't it like what Li Qingluo said? If they really broke something, she would definitely have to ask the old lady to buy a new one.
If the old lady's money is spent on their third wife, won't her family have less money for studying in the future?
Ms. Qian is even more relaxed. Unlike Ms. Wang, she already has at least one son who is already in school.
As for her wealthy family, she had to wait until her family became rich before she could have the opportunity to study.
The old lady was even more so. Once the money was in her hand, it would hurt even more than cutting her flesh to take it out.
Although she saw Qian and Wang searching lightly, she couldn't help but warn: "Be careful. Whoever breaks something will pay for it himself?"
