My whole family has crossed with Goldfinger

Chapter 578 Chapter 578: 2 updates

She heard the workers in the city talking behind their backs in the workshop, saying that the silver bracelet cost at least two taels of silver!
However, Maodan Niang is still young and good-looking. It is not a problem for a woman to be pretty. Doesn't she also want to buy two decent pieces of jewelry?It’s just that she entered the workshop more than a year after Mao Dan Niang, and she doesn’t have as much money as Mao Dan Niang, so she’s not willing to spend money to buy it.

It would be two years before she could have more money, so she just bought a bracelet to wear.

Seeing that Ms. Liu could only tell about the silver bracelet after recalling it for a long time, Xu Yinyin became more suspicious when she saw that her expression didn't look like she was hiding something.

Goudan saw with his own eyes that a sweetheart of Maodanniang came over. If he came only once every half month, Goudan would not understand. But Liu, who sat with Maodanniang and worked every day, couldn't make sense. I can't tell that, after all, they are all people who have been here before, well, there is no man around, so Liu can't tell if he has a lover?
But she didn't see it, which could only mean that the man was not Mao Danniang's lover, at least the two of them had never done anything like that.

It's not a romantic relationship, it's not because of that, so why does the man come here every half month and buy things every time he comes?That silver bracelet was probably bought by that man.

This is too strange. Could it be that Maodan Niang and the man were in a relationship and that the man wanted to marry Mao Danniang with a serious matchmaker?

But this doesn't explain why Mao Danniang still wants to take Mao Dan to Beijing.

Could that man be from the capital?Mao Danniang actually wants to live in the capital just to be closer to that man?
Xu Yinyin thought about countless possibilities but couldn't figure it out, so she had to suppress her curiosity first, but sent a message to Han Qingwen, asking him to keep an eye on Maodan Niang's movements for the past two days.

At the same time, someone asked Zhou Xing to do something.

Yiyang Prefecture has the custom of eating mutton pots during the winter solstice. Mutton is only three cents more expensive than pork. For the people in Yiyang Prefecture, it is not a problem for most people.

At present, there are people working in Xujia Workshop and Xujia Factory in ten miles and eight villages, and their lives are much better than in previous years. Even if there are no family members working in Xujia, because they have grown peppers and potatoes in the past two years, their lives have also become better. Better off.

Although peppers cannot be grown in large areas and are only used as vegetable seeds, and they are sold for a little money, which is not much, potatoes are different. If you plant one or two acres, you can harvest a lot, and you can feed a large family just by keeping them. Food rations for several months.

If you don’t want to keep it, you can also sell it to the Xu family factory, which charges two cents per catty. The potato weighing scale is more expensive than the peppers. If you sell one and a half acres, it will be a huge amount of money.

Therefore, it is affordable to buy two kilograms of mutton and eat it.

Today, the fragrance of mutton is wafting from every household in every village. Only the Wang family in Baoshan Bay is still sitting on the stove, pots, and benches. It is as quiet as if there is no one around, and there is no festive atmosphere at all.

Smelling the aroma of mutton that came from people in the village, Wang Huzi, who used to be chubby and looked very lucky but now has thin eyes, big face, small face and pointed chin, drooled so much that a large area under his neck was wet, and his nose was straight up and sniffing vigorously. The aroma seems to come to your mouth if you smell it too much.

"Dad, Huzi is hungry." He inhaled the aroma and his eyes were filled with hunger. He couldn't help but look timidly at Wang Daliang, who was huddled in the tattered quilt.

Wang Daliang stayed in the gambling house all night and came back at dawn when the city gates opened. It was time to go to bed. He was impatient with his son's noise. When he opened his eyes, he stared at him and cursed: "Hungry, hungry, hungry! You know how to call me hungry!" , I’m still hungry! If you can, go out and beg for food from the villagers! By the way, I’ll give it to you and I’ll order some back too!”

Wang Huzi burst into tears when he yelled like this, and huddled up into a ball. He didn't dare to say he was hungry, he just held his stomach tightly, thinking that covering it like this would stop him from being hungry.

But Wang Daliang was also attracted by the smell of meat. He hadn't eaten meat properly in months. He spent all his money in the gambling house. Now smelling the smell of meat, he was so greedy that his intestines would burst out. .So he glared at his son and said: "Go! Don't you, Grandma Xiao, always like you? Go to her house and stand there. If you don't believe her, she can bear to eat meat without giving you two pieces. When she can get the meat, she will bring it home as soon as possible. If If you dare to eat it by yourself, see if I don’t beat you to death! Go quickly!”

Wang Huzi was so yelled that he shrunk his neck, but he didn't dare not go. He just ran out of the house on his short legs and went to Xiao's house a few houses away.

The Xiao family was getting ready for dinner at this moment. Copper pots were expensive, so their family couldn't bear to buy a special pot for eating mutton. The mutton was stewed in the big iron pot, and it was soft and sizzling. It was filled with a large clay pot. , I sat under the stove and kept it hot, which seemed to be the case.

The Xiao family has a small population, and they can only sit at a square table. The whole family sat around, and just as they were about to start, Mrs. Xiao saw Wang Huzi standing at the courtyard gate and looking over eagerly.

Thinking of the situation in his family, he was afraid that he would not be able to eat hot meals during the holidays. It was hard to decide whether he would eat or not. Mrs. Xiao sighed and asked her grandson to go out and pull Wang Huzi in.

He took a piece of soft mutton and put it to Wang Huzi's mouth.

Wang Huzi thought that his father wanted him to take the meat back, so he didn't dare to open his mouth.

Mrs. Xiao didn't know, she just thought the child was afraid, so she whispered softly: "Open your mouth, ah, Grandma Xiao feeds you, eat."

The taste of mutton was so fragrant, it was right next to your mouth. Who could resist it? Wang Huzi opened his mouth and the meat was put into his mouth. The smell was so fragrant that he almost swallowed his tongue. He could no longer remember what his father had said. .

Mrs. Xiao fed him three pieces of meat in a row, then took a pancake and asked him to eat it while walking, and then went back.

No one in his family works in the Xu family. They only rely on the little land at home and don't earn much. Today they just bought two kilograms of meat. There are six or seven people in the family, but they can't give him much.

Wang Huzi ate three pieces of mutton and was extremely satisfied. He took the pancakes and went out. When the cold wind blew, he woke up and turned pale with fright.

Wang Daliang slowly returned home with the pancake in his arms. When he saw that there was only a dry vegetable pancake, Wang Daliang's face turned dark immediately, "No meat? What the hell are you being so picky about today? You obviously have meat but you won't give it to you?"

As he spoke, he saw his son's face turned pale and felt something was wrong. He pulled him close to his mouth and smelled it. It smelled like meat!
"Wow, you little bastard, how dare you secretly eat it behind your father's back! What a disgrace! You don't know how to respect your father when you have meat. You dare to eat it secretly before you come back. I'll beat you to death!"

As he spoke, he slapped Wang Huzi on the face.

Wang Huzi, who was already top-heavy, was slapped on the ground and couldn't get up for a long time.

Wang Daliang was still angry. He cursed and stretched out his legs to kick him again. Just as he was about to kick him again, Mrs. Wang, who had finally dragged his sick body out of the back room, came to his feet and hugged his feet, "Huzi." But your son! You are just such a son. If you kick him out, who will take care of you in the future? "

After hearing this, Wang Daliang regained his composure, retracted his legs, and squatted next to Mrs. Wang, grabbing her hand and saying, "Mom, do you have anything valuable? Give it to me, I'll take it to buy meat." ! It’s the festival today, let’s buy meat to eat too!”

Mrs. Wang cried so hard that one of her eyes was blinded. After hearing this, her tears kept flowing, "No, no, no, you have lost everything. Where is there anything left? Liangzi, please, please stop gambling, okay?" good?"
