"No, I have to go find her. I can't let outsiders take over this fat job." Xia Tieniu said, then picked up a piece of clothing and hurried to Yuan Qiu's house.
Looking at the big house with blue bricks and black tiles from a distance, and the courtyard wall that was much taller than a person, he felt a toothache. He felt very aggrieved that he was not allowed to live in such a good house. .
There was a knock on the courtyard door, and Yuan Hao ran to open the door. When he saw it was Xia Tieniu, he immediately stopped smiling and said, "Uncle Xia family, is there anything wrong?"
"Where is your sister, is she at home?" Xia Tieniu asked directly.
Yuan Hao nodded: "Here you are, is there something wrong?"
Xia Tieniu glared at Yuan Hao and said displeasedly: "Of course I have something to do. I can't tell you. I'll go find him myself." He pushed Yuan Hao away rudely and walked straight into the courtyard.
Yuan Qiu was coming out with a basin of water. When he saw this posture, he poured the basin of water at Xia Tieniu's feet without thinking, and made a look of surprise: "Oh - I'm really sorry, I didn't see it." You came here and accidentally soiled your shoes, sorry."
Could it be that her ghostly eyes failed to see this big living person like him? This is obviously intentional, I tolerate it.
Xia Tieniu took a deep breath and tried his best to speak in a pleasant tone: "Yuan Qiu, I heard that Zhang Lin will charge you one tael of silver for delivering goods?"
As soon as he opened his mouth, Yuan Qiu knew the purpose of his coming here. He sneered in his heart, but his face didn't show anything at all: "Yeah, one tael of silver per trip, is there any problem?"
Xia Tieniu got the confirmation and immediately became very excited: "Of course there is a problem, it's just a delivery. How could he charge you so much money? He's obviously trying to trick you. He's bullying you without an adult to take care of you. In this way, this guy Let me deliver it. I won’t charge you a tael of silver, but I’ll charge you 950 cash per trip. How about that?”
Xia Yuanqiu shrugged: "It's not that bad. I'm not short of the fifty cents."
"How can you say that? Even though you have some money now, you still have to save money, right? You can save fifty cents per trip, and ten trips are five hundred cents. Over the course of a year, you can't save several taels of silver. This With a few taels of silver, you can probably buy a lot of things." Xia Tieniu was good at tempting.
Yuan Qiu didn't appreciate it at all, and said coolly: "I'm not short of these few taels of silver. I understand what you mean. Please go back."
Xia Tieniu has a bad temper. He had said all the good things before, but now he couldn't bear it any longer: "You damn girl, what else do you have to say to make you understand? It's only fitting that I do this, and no one else can. I understand." ?"
"I don't understand. This job is assigned to me. Whoever wants to do it can do it. It's not up to anyone else to tell me what to do."
Xia Tieniu patted his chest and said, "Am I someone else? Am I someone else?? I am your uncle."
Yuan Qiu shook his head: "Don't play this trick in front of me. It's useless. When Yuan Hao and I were lonely and helpless, where were you, uncle? Did you ever take care of our two siblings' meals? Did you take a serious look at them? A glance at us? When our parents died, did you help with the funeral arrangements? What did you say at that time? You said that you and my father had separated our families a long time ago. Now that we have separated, we are no longer a family. , your family is your family, and my family is my family, they have nothing to do with each other. Are these the exact words you said? Did I, Xia Yuanqiu, tell a lie? "
Xia Tieniu was speechless. He had indeed said this. At that time, he did not want to have any involvement in the funeral affairs of the second son and his wife. He did not want to contribute money or contribute any effort, so he said this in front of many people in the village. Unexpectedly, Xia Yuanqiu would now take the initiative.
