Some cool bracelets were put on his hands, maybe because he was not proficient in business, or maybe he was nervous, it took Lao Zhoutou a while to put them on.
But Qian is sure that he must have practiced before, otherwise how could he put the bracelet on her hand accurately in the dim night light coming in from outside
Under the moonlight, Qian stared blankly at the thin bracelet on her wrist, and these thoughts came out by themselves.
She knew that something was wrong with him these past few days, he was acting weird, he didn't follow the fourth son and the others up the mountain to find mushrooms and poria cocos, and he didn't go to the field to look at his rice and wheat, but just sat at home all day long, Shake this, shake that for a while.
She thought it was because his aunt was preaching the absurd things about him when he was young, but she didn't expect it to be because of this.
Lao Zhou waited for a long time, and seeing that she hadn't said anything, he couldn't help coughing heavily.
Qian couldn't help but burst out laughing, and raised his wrist to look, "Where can you see it at night, why don't you give it during the day?"
Hearing the words, old Zhou Tou felt a little regretful on his face, and he muttered, "No during the day..."
"You asked your second brother to buy it?"
"No, I bought it myself."
"Didn't you just go into the city once in eight days?" Qian said with a smile, "You bought it at that time?"
Old Zhou was speechless.
Qian sat up from the bed, raised his wrist to look carefully under the moonlight, and said with a smile, "It's pretty pretty, did you choose it?"
Old Zhou Tou cheered up and nodded, "Yeah."
Women, no matter how old they are, do not like jewelry.
What's more, this is the first time Qian has a silver bracelet. She looked at it for a long time before remembering to ask, "How much is this?"
"It's too expensive," old Zhou Tou blurted out, "It costs three, two, seven hundred Wen."
Qian raised her eyebrows and asked, "Where did you get the money?"
Old Zhou was taken aback for a moment, and then he remembered that he seemed to have no money.
But Qian thought of the little girl's eyes that had been staring wider and wider in the past two days. She stared at him without moving.
Under her gaze, old Zhou Tou whispered reluctantly: "I borrowed it from Man Bao."
Qian Shi: "...how are you going to pay her back?"
Don't tell her to...
Old Zhou Tou coughed lightly and said, "Man Bao is still young, I have already discussed with her, and I will return it when she gets married."
Qian looked at him for a long time, then nodded slightly and said, "All right, you just know what's in your mind."
She didn't ask him that he planned to make money to pay back, she knew that he must have hidden money from his own house, but she didn't know how much he had hidden in total.
But there is a treasure...
Qian smiled slightly, and went to sleep with the silver bracelet on. The next day, when Man Bao ran over for breakfast, he saw the silver bracelet on his mother's wrist, and became happy, "Mother, please show me."
Qian smiled and showed her his hand.
Man Bao looked at the style and asked, "Mom, do you like this look?"
Seeing that old Zhou was listening with his ears upright, Qian smiled and nodded, "I like it."
Man Bao wrote down the appearance of the silver bracelet.
Xiaoqian's daughters-in-law only found out that her mother-in-law was wearing a silver bracelet, and they all complimented her, "Mother wears this so pretty."
Qian said with a smile: "Your father-in-law gave it."
The daughters-in-law praised "the father-in-law has a good vision", so the old Zhou Tou beside him also became happy.
Man Bao asked his sister-in-law quietly, "Sister-in-law, do you like this too?"
Xiao Qian nodded with a smile, "Where is the silver bracelet?"
I like it no matter what.
Man Bao nodded, it seems that the father's vision is still very good.
When the people were all gone, and the old Zhou was looking at the family's precious cow with his hands behind his back, Qian pulled Man Bao over and asked, "Did your father borrow money from you?"
Man Bao nodded.
She then asked, "Your father doesn't have enough private money to buy a bracelet?"
Man Bao looked disgusted, "Father only has more than one hundred cash from his private house, how can it be possible?"
Qian Shi: ... more than a hundred essays for so many years
Man Bao looked left and right, and whispered to her mother: "There are still twenty more documents that were withheld from the second brother."
Qian's face was confused, "Why did he detain your second brother?"
"Last year, my second brother wanted to go to the city to sell things. Dad deducted half of his money and gave him ten cents a day. Second brother talked to me in private for a long time."
Mrs. Qian stroked her forehead, but after thinking about it, it was true that old Zhou Tou really had no chance to make money.
The family's grain harvest has been bumper, and it is basically sold at the front foot, and the money at the back foot is in her hands.
Even if Lao Zhoutou and his sons went to work at Landlord Bai's house together, and the sons paid 60% of their contribution, he paid all of it.
So how did he save the rest of his personal money
As soon as Qian returned to her senses, she saw Man Bao shrinking her neck and smiling triumphantly. She knew what she was complacent about. She nodded her forehead and said, "Your old Zhou family are quite similar in this respect."
"What does it look like?"
"Hiding private money."
That's right, Man Bao, who currently has the most private money in the family, chuckled, left her mother and went into the kitchen to find something to eat.
The atmosphere in the old Zhou family was good. Although for some reason, the young people in Qili Village knew that the hardworking old Zhou was a lazy man when he was young, but this did not prevent the young people from the old Zhou family from dominating the village.
Because while Lao Zhoutou's laziness was publicized, the news that he had a clever second brother was also spread in a small circle.
Adults don't talk about Zhou Yin very much, but they haven't avoided it before. But some very old people occasionally mentioned him.
For the teenagers in the village, this is a new character, and they have never heard of it before, so they will naturally pay more attention.
So much so that Datou and the others have a reasonable explanation for their sister-in-law and their own intelligence, "Look at how smart my uncle is, so my sister-in-law should be smart, and we should be smart too. This is all given by our ancestors."
The friends all looked at them with envy, and couldn't help but look at their grandparents and parents and sigh when they went back at night, thinking that this was inherited from their ancestors, so they are not as smart as the big heads, and I really don't blame them.
Yes, Datou and his brothers and sisters are very smart in the eyes of the little friends in the village.
They can not only count, read and read, but also know many things.
If it is said that in the past, Zhou Zhoulang dominated the village with his fists and brothers, and Zhou Wulang and Saturday Lang ruled the village with money and brothers. The little partner kept that position.
What a lot of kids don't know is that intelligence can grow, especially in childhood.
At least Keke felt that its host became more and more intelligent as she grew older and learned. Up to now, she has been able to deal with people found through the forum with ease.
Especially Dr. D and the others who had a closer relationship, no one noticed that the opposite of them was a child.
