"Then thank you so much, auntie. I think she found out that we were short of money to build a new house and couldn't afford the wages, so she asked my uncle to help us. She is really a kind person who cares about our orphans and widows so much! You are right. Set an example for us younger generations!"
Chunfeng looked at the eldest uncle and deliberately praised her well.
But the eldest uncle knew in her heart that although she was praising her on the surface, it was Chunfeng himself who actually benefited.
I originally heard that the wages offered by Chunfeng's family were very considerable, and I wanted to make a fortune, but after she said this, the eldest uncle didn't want to ask for wages anymore!
Anyway, this little salary is not her ultimate goal, so don’t worry about it!
Thinking of this, the aunt smiled again and said: "That's natural. I promised to help. Why do I want your wages?"
"I know that the aunt is the most considerate! But the other people here have arranged things. Now the only work left is to pick bricks and mud. No one can do it. I think my uncle is the same as the aunt. Those who are considerate will not find this job too dirty and tiring! "
Chunfeng blinked his big, watery eyes, looking innocent and kind, and looked at his aunt, and then at the so-called uncle.
I saw that the uncle's face was already unhappy, but she still gritted her teeth and held back.
The uncle on the side first heard that there was no wages, and then he heard that he had to do the dirty work of picking bricks and mud. The displeasure on his face was even more obvious.
I just looked at the eldest uncle's face with a look of reluctance, but now that she has said it, and with so many people watching, she can't take it back!
Besides, they had other purposes for coming this time, so they had better endure it for the sake of their own plans.
So the aunt could only wink at her brother and ask him to endure it for the time being and keep quiet.
"Hey, you kid, you're just here to help, so there's no reason to dislike it. Just follow the arrangements!"
The aunt suppressed her unhappiness and pretended to be cheerful.
But just thinking about what would happen to this little bitch next made her feel happy.
"Then thank you, uncle!" Chunfeng said very politely.
"Well, that spring breeze!" The aunt smiled at the spring breeze with a flattering look.
Looking at it, Chunfeng felt his stomach churn fiercely, but he pretended to be puzzled and answered.
"Huh? Is there anything else, auntie?"
"Ah, haha, it's the hairpin you took from me last time. Can you give it back to me?"
The auntie looked at Chunfeng with a smile on her face. At this moment, Chunfeng's mind automatically appeared in the scene of a big-tailed dog, shaking its head and asking for bones from its owner.
"Oh, that hairpin! I almost forgot if you didn't tell me, aunt. I wonder if aunt has brought all the money today?"
Chunfeng looked like he had a "sudden realization" and looked at the auntie with a smile.
"Well, you see, my aunt has helped you so much. Do you think this money can be waived?"
The auntie began to get close to her, but was Chunfeng the one to take advantage of her
"Oh, uncle, you care so much about our family, so this hairpin should be returned to you, but you also know. It is the time when we are spending money to build a house, and this large number of workers need to eat and drink. If before I bought those acres of land, and with the few taels of silver, I could subsidize the family. But now that the land is gone, I can't let everyone work for us hungry. This is a last resort. It's worth five or six taels of silver and can give everyone a full meal."
Chunfeng said pitifully, as if he could hardly open the pot.
When the eldest uncle heard that she was going to sell the hairpin and sell it at such a low price, she felt very distressed.
You must know that the hairpin cost her a full ten taels of silver to make, and it was her most proud accessory.
How could she let Chunfeng sell it so cheaply? He hurriedly took out a small bag of silver from his arms and handed it to Chunfeng.
"No, no, no, no, I have money here. If you want to buy it, sell it to me! Haha!"
Chunfeng took the money unhurriedly and said with a gentle face, "What the aunt said is that the wealth should not flow to outsiders. Since the aunt has said it, of course you should stick to the aunt first."
Chunfeng smiled and handed the money to his mother to take back to the house and put it away, while he turned back into the room to get the hairpin.
The auntie was very happy with the hairpin, but she didn’t know that she was being played by the spring breeze!
Originally, I wanted to use this time to help, and get close to each other casually, so that I could get the hairpin back, but I didn't want to be tricked by the spring breeze and get the six taels of silver.
When the aunt came back to her senses, she gritted her teeth angrily and stamped her feet, but she couldn't change the fact that the money was gone.
She can be considered smart for a lifetime, but she is confused for a moment!
The spring breeze here took back the money that should have belonged to them, but there was nothing particularly happy about it.
At this moment, she was thinking about what the real purpose of her uncle's visit was.
If it was for the hairpin, then it wouldn't be necessary to keep her ruffian brother here, and it would be even more impossible to help. Would that hard-earned iron hen be so kind
Chunfeng couldn't think of their real purpose for a moment, but it was always right to be cautious.
"Feng'er, why did you promise your aunt to keep this person?" Chunfeng said with a puzzled look on her face.
Let’s just talk about my sister-in-law’s younger brother. He is an idle guy and has a bad reputation in his village. He is almost thirty years old and has yet to find a wife.
Would you be so kind as to help? And you agreed to pick out bricks and mud? This is something that only happens when the sun comes out from the west!
"Mom, do you think my uncle will be willing to give up if he doesn't achieve his goal? Why waste so much lip service instead of keeping everyone else!"
Chunfeng looked at her mother and said, in fact, Chunfeng mother also knows that this is the temperament of the eldest uncle. She won't start early if there is no benefit, and will not give up until the goal is achieved.
They were in the wrong last time, but this time they came under the guise of helping, so how could they shirk it
Thinking of this, Chunfeng Niang stopped talking and just sighed in her heart.
"Mom, we have been careful these days. I always feel that auntie is not really so kind. We'd better pay more attention. You can also tell eldest sister and Chun Sheng!"
After thinking about it, Chunfeng still felt that it was better to be careful, so he looked at his mother and gave instructions.
"Well, mother knows!" Chunfeng Mother also felt that this was the case.
It's a quiet night, and the chirping of insects outside the window is like a lingering lullaby, making people drowsy.
A day's hard work makes people sleep deeper and deeper.
Chunfeng, who was lying on the bed, also felt that his eyelids were getting heavier and heavier, as if they were out of his control.
Finally, after Chunfeng blinked his eyelids a few times, he fell into a deep sleep.
