Chapter 3736 Farewell
"Brother, sister-in-law, in this piggy bank is the private money I have saved in the past few years, and it is all red envelopes from my parents during the festivals." Dazhi said softly.

"I took a look at it earlier, and there is about one thousand Wen, plus four taels of silver."

"It looks like five taels of silver in total. If you take this money back, there are so many people in our family, even if we don't do anything, it will be enough for the whole family to live and eat for a year."

Hearing Dazhi's words, Daqiu quickly put down the egg cake in his hand and came over.

He picked up the piggy bank brought by Dazhi, weighed it in his hand a few times, and shook it a few times. Hearing the sound coming from inside, the big ball became excited.

"It's really so much money, Shui Lian, with this money, our life will be easier, hehe..."

Daqiu excitedly said to Zhang Shuilian, in front of Dazhi.

Zhang Shuilian wanted to slap the big ball, but she couldn't do that in front of Dazhi.

Zhang Shuilian snatched the piggy bank and put it back, and said to Dazhi: "Uncle, this is the private money you have worked so hard to save in the past few years. No matter how difficult our life is, we can't ask for your money."

"You keep your money for yourself. In the future, you will study, marry a wife, etc. There will be many places to spend it!"

Dazhi shook his head: "My studies and my marriage will naturally be handled by my parents, and my mother will not let me worry about it."

He pushed the piggy bank in front of the big ball again: "Brother, you can take it. Although it's not much, a drop in the bucket is a little bit of my heart."

After saying this, Dazhi turned and left the room.

Daqiu chased to the door of the house and called Dazhi, but Dazhi walked away without looking back.

When Daqiu returned to the house, he found that his daughter-in-law Zhang Shuilian had dumped all the money in the piggy bank on the table and was counting one by one...

"Daughter-in-law, what are you doing? You were the one who said you didn't want it before, and you're the one who counted the money until your mouth crooked. Do we want the money or not?" Da Qiu was very puzzled. ask.

Zhang Shuilian stroked the money in front of her, unable to take her eyes off, but finally stuffed it all into the piggy bank.

"Daqiu, let's stay here for a day and go back to our hometown tomorrow." Zhang Shuilian said.

"You return this piggy bank to your brother Dazhi!" she said.

"What? Go back? Did I hear you right? After counting the money for a long time, you still don't want it?" Da Qiu asked, confused.

Zhang Shuilian gave Daqiu a blank look, and said, "Who said I don't want it anymore? Don't be a bastard if you have money!"

"Then why are you?" Big Ball asked again.

Zhang Shuilian said: "I want it, of course I want it, but what I want is not the five taels of silver in this piggy bank."

"The family of the great general who protects the country is so rich, and the general's wife is such a powerful female shopkeeper who has opened so many restaurants,"

"Isn't it better than five taels of silver to pluck the root hair casually?"

"What can you do with five taels of silver? One year's rice grain and four seasons of clothes will be gone. After that?"

"Could it be that we come here again to beg for three melons and two dates in exchange for some rice grains? You are really worthless!" Zhang Shuilian said.

The next day, Yang Ruoqing was still planning some unusual dishes to entertain Daqiu and his wife, but unexpectedly, Daqiu and his wife came to say goodbye to her.

"Why did you leave so soon? It's not easy for you brothers to meet again, why are you staying for a few more days?" Yang Ruoqing sincerely asked to stay.

Dazhi was also very surprised by Daqiu's temporary decision, because when talking together yesterday, he also said that he would play here for a few more days.

"Brother, sister-in-law, how many more days do you want to stay?" Da Zhi also asked to stay.

Da Qiu said: "Auntie, Brother Dazhi, thank you for your retention and hospitality."

"We came here to see Dazhi, and we felt relieved when we saw that he was doing so well. We went back and told mother, and mother was also relieved."

"There are a lot of things at home. Earlier, the shop was supported by my mother and a few younger brothers and sisters. It took us more than two months to go back and forth this time. If we don't go back, we don't feel at ease at home."

Hearing Da Qiu's words, Yang Ruoqing couldn't force her to stay anymore.

"Come over to play when you're free. If it's feasible, remember to bring your mother with you next time. We old sisters haven't seen each other for seven years since we met in Hekou." Yang Ruoqing continued enthusiastically.

Daqiu and Zhang Shuilian nodded together: "Thank you auntie for your hospitality, we will tell mother when we go back, next time we have time to bring mother over with me,"

Even though they just stayed for a day in a hurry and left, Yang Ruoqing still prepared a lot of things for them before leaving.

Rice grain, wheat flour, rapeseed oil, some dry goods from the mountains and medicinal materials that are always at home.

If I have a headache or something, those medicines are necessary for daily use.

In addition, Yang Ruoqing put another ten taels of silver in Zuo Junmo's place, and entrusted him to hand over to Daqiu and his wife when he sent Daqiu and his wife to board the boat at the ferry over Hekou Village.

Although ten taels of silver is not a huge sum of money, they can buy a lot of things by letting Da Qiu and the others take it back.

After seeing off Daqiu and his wife, Yang Ruoqing finished cleaning up the housework, thinking that Luo Baobao would go to school by himself today,

Originally thought that Daqiu and his wife would stay for a few more days, so Dazhi didn't go to school during the day, so Yang Ruoqing came to Dazhi's room to talk to him for a while.

"Zhi'er, can I come in?" Yang Ruoqing asked standing at the door.

Dazhi hurried over and opened the door, "Mother, I'm not sleeping or reading, please come in, mother."

After Yang Ruoqing entered the room, she immediately saw a fat piggy bank in the middle of the table.

She specially entrusted someone to go to Porcelain Capital to find someone to burn this fat pig's piggy bank. At that time, three piggy banks were burned in total, Chen'er, Dazhi, and Baobao, one for each of them.

"What are you doing?" Yang Ruoqing asked.

Dazhi said: "I didn't do anything, I was just thinking, since my eldest brother and sister-in-law said that life is so tight in my hometown, why did they not want me to give him the money in the piggy bank?"

Yang Ruoqing glanced at the piggy bank, and then at Dazhi: "I, Zhi'er, is sensible and knows how to help my brother and sister-in-law. He is really a sensible child. Mother is very pleased for you."

"However, Zhi'er, don't worry too much. I put ten taels of silver with your uncle Junmo and asked him to pass it on to your brother and sister-in-law."

"Although ten taels of silver can't accommodate any shop, it can make the family turn around anyway."

"Wait until they come again in the future, and then we will try to find out what else we can do to help them."

Hearing Yang Ruoqing's words, Dazhi remembered the bags of rice and grain supplies that were loaded into the carriage when he sent his brother and sister-in-law away.

Dazhi stood up and came to Yang Ruoqing, brushed his robe with his hand, and knelt down to Yang Ruoqing.

"Zhi'er, thank you mother for taking care of my old family!"
