70s Xiao Que Xing

Chapter 124

Seeing everyone looking at her suspiciously, Xie Xiaonian said, "I dug this up on the mountain before, and I didn't tell you guys because I didn't make it well. After a while, I just wanted to bring it over. Let my cousin sell it for me."

"Didn't you say you won't go to the deep mountains?" The eldest concubine said immediately after hearing Xie Xiaonian's words, the surprise just now was gone.

"I didn't go to the deep mountain. I dug this secretly when Xu Zhongjun and I went up the mountain together, but I didn't tell him, I kept it for myself." Xie Xiaonian hurriedly said out of fear that his sister-in-law would be worried.

"That's good, that's good." Hearing Xie Xiaonian said that he didn't go to the deep mountains, Sun Feng felt a little relieved.

After asking all the questions clearly, the second concubine sighed and said: "I really thank God for allowing Xiao Nian to have such good luck. We Xiao Nian are blessed. Although we suffered a little when we were young, we will definitely be rich and powerful in the future." people."

"That's right, I've always thought that Xiao Nian is a lucky one."

"Doesn't everyone say that if you survive a catastrophe, you will have a future blessing! I think Xiao Nian is a blessed one."

When the others heard this, they all nodded in agreement, almost calling Xie Xiaonian a fairy boy in front of the Goddess of Mercy.

After listening to everyone's words, Xie Xiaonian was so funny that she almost couldn't laugh out loud, but luckily she held it back in time, otherwise she would definitely have received some supercilious looks.

After praising Xie Xiaonian, everyone began to discuss the quality of ginseng there. Although they didn't know much about it except for the second uncle, they saw that the ginseng was much bigger than the ginseng that was brewed at home before, so they thought it was Definitely a better one.

After everyone calmed down, the uncle said to Xie Xiaonian: "Xiao Nian, these three ginseng are treasures, it's better not to sell them, you hide them well, maybe they will be of great use in the future."

"Uncle, since I have brought it here, I have made a plan, and I will definitely not take it back. I have made up my mind, there are exactly three, and each of us will have one. I will ask my big cousin for this one. Sell ​​it for me, as for what to do with your uncle and uncle, whether to sell it or keep it, you can figure it out yourself." Xie Xiaonian said resolutely.

"No, you dug this up, how can you divide it up? If you want to sell it, ask your cousin to sell one for you secretly, and keep the remaining two for yourself." The elder sister-in-law heard Xie Xiaonian When they said they wanted to share, they immediately disagreed, saying, as elders, how could they want things from younger generations.

And other people also echoed, saying that the ginseng cannot be divided.

Xie Xiaonian couldn't refute it when she saw one person saying something, so she had to resort to a trick and said: "We are a family, you prepared a dowry for me, and spent so much money, I didn't even want to see it. Can you don't want the ginseng I gave you? If you treat me as a family, then take it, otherwise I don't want the dowry you prepared for me." After finishing speaking, she pretended to be distressed.

In this way, under Xie Xiaonian's aggressive and coquettish offensive, everyone finally accepted Xie Xiaonian's proposal. At this time, Xie Xiaonian felt that it was more difficult to give them things than to take them.

After deliberation, everyone decided to sell all 3 wild ginseng. After all, the family is really short of money recently.

As a doctor, the second uncle was very reluctant, but finally decided to sell it. After all, this ginseng is not very useful in his hands. It is better to exchange some money to ease the situation at home.

Xie Xiaonian actually hopes to sell them all, after all, there is still room for ginseng, but no money, and what my uncle's family lacks most now is money.

After the discussion, the uncle immediately asked the eldest cousin and the third cousin to sell wild ginseng together.

Although everyone was very excited, they still did what they should do, so as not to be noticed by others, and the second uncle's family did not leave. They stayed and waited for the two to come back, while helping the eldest sister-in-law's family with work.

But because of the excitement in their hearts, everyone's work efficiency was much lower, and they looked outside the door from time to time.

And Xie Xiaonian took out some fruits he brought, and ate and played with his nephews and nieces.

Now is the summer vacation, the children are at home, there are many people, and the gathering is very lively.

Originally, the eldest cousin was supposed to come back before lunch, but I don’t know what happened today. After the meal was ready, it was still too late to wait for the figures of the eldest cousin and the third cousin.

"It's going to be okay. It's been a long time and I haven't come back." After waiting for a while, the elder concubine asked worriedly.

"That's right, normally I should be back in 2 or 3 hours!" The second concubine was also a little worried.

"I won't be caught! Then what should I do?" The third cousin's sister-in-law was already panicking at this time.

"What are you worried about? The items sold this time are not the same as in the past. They just write about cheap game and high-value items. It will definitely take more time. Let's eat first, the children are hungry." The uncle also said Calmly, he ordered directly.

"That's right, you must find a master who has a good eye. After all, there are not many people who can tell how much ginseng is worth at a glance." The second uncle also said.

Seeing that the backbone of the family had said so, everyone was a little relieved, and began to greet and eat.

However, the atmosphere is not as cheerful as before, and everyone is more or less worried.

But with the children's children's words and children's words, slowly everyone began to have a smile on their faces.

Seeing this, Xie Xiaonian also breathed a sigh of relief.

If she made the family unhappy because of her, she would feel very guilty.

As for whether something will happen to the eldest cousin, she is not too worried. After all, the eldest cousin is also a veteran, and his classmates have not been discovered for so many years. He must either have a hand or a background.

In the middle of the afternoon, the eldest cousin and the third cousin finally came back on bicycles.

"Why did you come back now?" Er Jinzi, who had been waiting for a long time, said immediately when she saw the two of them coming back.

"Mother, let's go back to the house and talk." The third cousin was afraid of being heard, so he hurriedly called everyone into the house.

At this time, Fu Ling also consciously called a group of children to play in the yard and kept them away from the house.

After entering the main room, the eldest cousin said: "My classmate doesn't know ginseng either, so I asked an old Chinese doctor to help me palm the eyes, and the three ginsengs were sold for a total of 3 yuan. I didn’t have that much cash, so I went to collect it again, which would be a waste of time.”

"So much money?" The eldest cousin said in disbelief when she heard her husband say that she had sold for so much money.

The others were also shocked. They had never seen so much money in their adulthood.

And the most calm among them are Xie Xiaonian and his second uncle Xie Xiaonian.

Xie Xiaonian didn't know the specific concept of more than 2000 yuan, after all, it was sometimes more than 2000 yuan to buy a piece of clothing in the previous life.

The second uncle Xie Xiaonian was relatively calm because, as a doctor, he roughly estimated the price of the three ginseng in advance.

"These three plants are all century-old ginseng, so of course they are valuable." The third cousin said proudly when he saw that everyone was so surprised.

Regardless of their shock, the eldest cousin directly took off the small cloth bag tied around his waist, and when he opened it, it was full of money.

Because the money with the largest denomination at this time is 10 yuan, and the money is all scraped together, so there are still a lot of dimes and pennies in change. It looks like a lot, which is very spectacular.

"Oh my God, how did you bring so much money back? If it were me, I wouldn't dare to go out!" The big cousin exclaimed in a low voice.

"If you don't show it, who would know that you have a huge sum of money!" The eldest cousin said with a smile, looking very calm.

But in fact, when he first got the money, he was also very nervous. Although he was calm, only he knew how much his palms were sweating along the way.

Then the big cousin went on to say: "Although my classmates have all gone out to collect money, they still don't have that much cash, so they plan to give 2200 first, and then give the remaining 50 later. But I happened to see that he resold a radio, 150 a There is no ticket, so after discussing with the third child, I took out another 100, bought a radio, and prepared to make a dowry for Xiao Nian, so that Xiao Nian could make up three turns and one ring. What is the remaining 2100 yuan."

"Then I'll be greedy for cheap, and take the 150 yuan all by myself, and the remaining 2100 yuan is exactly 700 yuan each." Xie Xiaonian said happily.

Because the distribution had already been discussed, everyone did not shirk each other, and the uncle and uncle counted, and each family divided 700 yuan.

Xie Xiaonian held the dozens of money in her hand, and felt happily, she is also a little rich woman now.

It's a pity that Xie Xiaonian hadn't warmed up the money yet, so the elder sister said: "It's too unsafe for you to hold so much money, and there is no way to hide money where you live. Give me your money first, and I'll give it to you." Keep it, plus the fifty that Xu Zhongjun gave you, the total is 750, and I will give you the money after you get married. Don't let Xu Zhongjun know about this money, keep it as your private money, you know?"

"Ah, I haven't warmed up yet, so I have to hand it in!" Xie Xiaonian said with some reluctance.

"It's better than you losing it, or letting Wu Lihua steal it for you!" The elder sister continued to persuade.

"Okay, can I keep some?" Xie Xiaonian said pitifully.

"Then leave 50 for you, and give me the rest, and I'll keep it for you."

"Okay, thank you sister-in-law." Xie Xiaonian said happily, 50 is also money, it's better than leaving it all to the lady-in-law for safekeeping.

After finishing speaking, Xie Xiaonian counted five 5 yuan ones to keep, and handed over the rest to the eldest sister-in-law.

In fact, when you think about it carefully, it is not unreasonable for the elder concubine to be worried. If Xie Xiaonian has no space, considering her current living conditions in Xie's house, she really dare not take the money, it is all her property, lost Yes, she must cry to death.

Because the weather has not been good for the past few days, Xie Xiaonian and Li Zhenzhu went up the mountain the next day, and the sky began to rain again.

Because the sky was not too gloomy, they thought that the downfall should not be too big, and this time it was a little rushed, so they went directly to the cave to hide from the rain, and did not go down the mountain.

A few people sat at the entrance of the cave and lit a fire. While roasting the moisture on their bodies, they roasted and ate mushrooms, fungus, pheasant, and hare. They were leisurely and comfortable.

While brushing the mushrooms with sauce, Li Zhenzhu said, "I'm still relaxing on the mountain, listening to Li Zhi and Zhang Hao complaining to each other at home all day, my ears are almost callused."

"The children were all lost because of the quarrel, are they still arguing?" Xie Xiaonian thought that the two of them would learn their lesson and be quiet for a few days.

"They quarreled because the child was lost. Li Zhi didn't eat anything to nourish her body during confinement, and Zhang Hao didn't have money to buy it for her. Besides, her mother had never visited her, and there was no one in the village. Bring something to see her, can she not be angry? She doesn't have to do housework now, and she lies on the kang every day, so there is nothing left to swear." Li Zhenzhu said with a curl of her lips.

"No way, my father won't let the family see Li Zhi, so Wu Lihua really won't go, that's her own daughter, didn't she love Li Zhi when she saw her before? Did you go to see her? "Xie Xiaonian asked.

But what Xie Xiaonian didn't know was that now Wu Lihua's status in Xie's family was very low, and she couldn't protect herself, so how could she dare to do anything against Xie's father.

"We live in the same yard, and it's shameful not to go and see, so I picked half a basket of vegetables to see her yesterday, but unfortunately they saw that what I brought was vegetables, not eggs or brown sugar, so they didn't like it at all. " Li Zhenzhu became angry when she thought of Li Zhi's disgusted face.

Li Zhenzhu felt that he really shouldn't have gone, not to mention half a basket of food, and still being so angry, like Lin Xiaodan and Chen Jianshe, it would be better if they didn't pay attention at all.

Thinking of Lin Xiaodan, Li Zhenzhu suddenly remembered something that shocked her.
