The beautiful pastoral field of Jiangmen girl

Chapter 416 Chase (2)
Gu Qingquan sat next to Gu Qingjia's subordinate, although he didn't speak, but his eyes were not idle, while observing the faces of his mother and elder brother, he would glance at the cage Ma Shi put in the house from time to time.Standing behind him was his wife, holding their seven-month-old son in her arms.

And Gu Li, with a sleepy expression, sat far away from Mrs. Ma, no longer seeing the usual intimacy.

Mrs. Ma looked at the expressions of the children one by one, and told Aunt Ying who was behind her, "Open the cage and take out my money box." After she finished speaking, she put a key on the table.

Aunt Ying agreed, took the key, went over with her head down, and quickly handed a box to Mrs. Ma.

Mrs. Ma asked Yinggu to put the money box on the table, and then, in front of her children, she opened the money box and looked at the children.I saw that her eldest son did not raise his head, but just teased his daughter on his knees; her second son and his wife Zhang's eyes were bright, and their eyes were glued to the money box, as if they could never be pulled off; her daughter, The daughter who loves her wholeheartedly, her complexion is not good, staring at the money box, biting her lip, wanted to speak several times, but finally held back.

With a clear heart, Ma Shi sighed, straightened his back, and gracefully took out things one by one from the money box, put them on the table, and then raised his head, "You also know that your father took the money from your mother's hand to pay off the debt. I basically took all of my private house. These are left after my mother hid and hid them." She pulled the jewelry aside, "Two pairs of gold bracelets, three gold hairpins, four pairs of earrings, and my mother's head It’s the only jewelry left in Mother’s hand.” She picked up two more silver notes, “Two silver notes of 100 taels, 15 taels of gold ingots, [-] taels of silver ingots, not counting the scattered silver coins.” She said As he spoke, he put the scattered silver into the money box.

A look of disappointment flashed across Gu Qingquan's face, but his wife, Mrs. Zhang, stared straight at the gold bracelet and gold hairpin.

After all, Gu Li couldn't hold back, "Mother, what are you going to do with all your belongings?" What she is most worried about now is that Mother has distributed all her belongings to her eldest brother and second brother, but lost her dowry.

Mrs. Ma no longer has the desire to coax her daughter in a gentle voice, "200 taels of silver bills, 15 taels of gold ingots, and 310 taels of silver ingots, all converted into silver taels, it is [-] five taels of silver. The three of you brothers and sisters all fell from your mother. The meat is the heart of the mother. If you are willing to share it with the mother, the mother has to plan for you. Don’t worry about these jewelry, the mother will not give it to you.” While speaking, she put the jewelry one by one into the box middle.

Gu Qingquan's wife couldn't help it anymore, "Mother, other mothers, if they have good things, they will distribute them to their children. Why is it different when it comes to mother's place?"

Mrs. Ma sneered, "Mrs. Zhang, you're a gossip-loving daughter-in-law, you should be snickering, "Mother Zhang, you're not afraid of the wind flashing your tongue if you want to take away Mother's jewelry!"

Mrs. Zhang immediately turned pale and lowered her head.

Gu Qing coughed uncomfortably and remained silent.

Ma Shi put away the silver ingots, "300 taels of silver, one divided into three, one share of 100 taels. Jia'er got 100 taels, Quan'er got 100 taels, and the remaining 100 taels belonged to mother. Mother wants to take it and bring it with her." Let your sister live, and you have to take part of it to buy a dowry for your sister."

"Mother." Gu Qingquan frowned, he thought that he could get 150 taels.

"Mother." Gu Li was in a hurry, "What can you do with 100 taels of silver? Excluding daily expenses, what kind of dowry can you buy with the rest of the silver? This is too shabby."

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Ma immediately threw the banknotes and gold ingots into the money box, and closed the box with a snap, "If you think it's too little, go and ask your father for it."

As soon as these words came out, the scene suddenly fell silent.

After a while, the daughter on Gu Qingjia's lap stretched out her hand towards Mrs. Ma, she grinned and called grandma indistinctly.

Seeing Madam Ma, her heart softened, "It's still my grandmother's Huier who is caring."

Gu Qingjia stood up and put her daughter on Ma Shi's lap.

Mrs. Ma hugged her granddaughter and shaved her little nose, looking very happy.

Gu Qingquan stretched his hand backwards, and poked his wife Gu Zhangshi's arm.Mrs. Gu Zhang returned to her senses, squeezed out a smiling face, and sent the son in her arms to Mrs. Ma, "Mother, your precious Jinsun misses you very much."

Mrs. Ma ignored it, but just teased the little granddaughter Hui'er in her arms.

Mrs. Gu Zhang blushed a lot, glanced at little Hui'er, smiled at Mrs. Ma, and refused to back away.She cursed secretly in her heart: it's an idiot for an old thing to hug money instead of a golden grandson.

At this time, the child in Gu Zhang's arms farted, followed by a foul smell.

Ma Shi didn't even raise his head, "You didn't take Cong'er to clean up, why are you standing here in a daze?"

Mrs. Gu Zhang was angry, but she was actually very afraid of Mrs. Ma, so she hugged the child and hurried down.

Gu Qingquan wanted to ease the atmosphere, "Mother, Mrs. Zhang has a straight temper and always speaks quickly, she has no evil intentions, she..."

"Gu Ying, tell the young master and miss how my wife planned to divide the family." Madam Ma interrupted the second son's words and said this.

Aunt Ying agreed, bowed her head and said, "Back to the eldest master, second young master, and miss. Madam said that when children grow up, they don't like to be restrained, so it is inevitable that some demon moths will come out. Besides, Madam feels that she has become more and more ill recently. Worse, with limited energy, I'm afraid I can't control anyone. But the young lady came out with the wife, and the lady couldn't leave the young lady alone, so the lady wanted to separate the family. "

Gu Qingquan was about to speak, but Gu Qingjia held him down with a sullen face, so that he would not interrupt Yinggu.

Aunt Ying said again, "Madam originally planned to divide the belongings in her hands into three, the first young master will take one share, the second young master will take one share, and the wife and young lady will take one share. Besides, which one of the eldest young master or the second young master is willing to support the wife? The wife will live with whoever she lives with. But there is one thing, the wife will keep the money for the young master who is serving her, and continue to run the family business for her. When the young lady gets married, the young master who is supporting the wife will have to add ten taels of silver to the young master who does not support the wife. The young master got 20 taels of makeup silver."

Gu Qingjia was silent, but Gu Qingquan couldn't sit still.

Mrs. Ma patted the sleepy granddaughter on the back, and added, "The ones who are raised as mothers will stay and continue to live in this small rented courtyard. The ones who are divided out will take the money they get and organize their belongings. Three days later Move out from here. From now on, you can make a living by yourself! Whether you live a good life or a bad life, it all depends on your own ability, and you can't help your mother."

Gu Qingquan felt uncomfortable all over, "Mother, don't be angry, it's fine, what kind of family is it? Besides, daddy..."

Mrs. Ma interrupted him, "Quan'er, these are all you can get from Wei Niang. Whether you take it or not, we will talk about it tomorrow. Besides, don't mention your father, I miss your father so much, go back and spend time with your father, Don't think about pleasing both sides, both sides have to be good. Although you are born by mother, you also know how your mother is. Mother can't rub sand in her eyes. "
