Wuwang reminds book friends to rest their eyes

If Shu Huan had to use one word to describe the Xu family, it would be hot and hot.

She came to the door unexpectedly, dropped a string of words like peas in a bamboo tube, and said she wanted to leave before anyone could react. However, Shu Huan breathed a sigh of relief when she wanted to leave, and chased them two steps forward, intending to send them out the door

.

Unexpectedly, when Xu came to the door, he suddenly turned around and gave her a flattering smile.

Shu Huan was startled: "Mother...do you have anything else to tell me?"

It took her a lot of effort to spit out the word "mother". Fortunately, it was called mother, not mother, otherwise it would be too difficult to bear psychologically.

"It's nothing..." Xu shimmied unexpectedly, and stretched out his hand to push Shu Fu beside him.

Shu Fu looked at her, then at Shu Huan, hesitant to speak.

Curiosity was aroused, Shu Huan urged: "There are no outsiders here, so if you have anything to say, just say it."

Shu Fu was pushed and pushed, finally opened his mouth and called out: "Xiao Huan—"

faint!

This Shu family couple is really a perfect match, one is as impatient as charcoal, and the other is as lukewarm as white water.

In the end, Mrs. Xu couldn't hold back, she gave Shu Fu a hard look, and said by herself: "In order to save face for you, all the money in the family was used to prepare gifts, and I pawned a lot of things. Now I'm so poor. There is no rice to cook, your younger brother is also at the age of school, and he can't even make up Mr. Jing's Shuxiu, Xiaohuan, do you have any private money you have accumulated? Let's borrow a few taels to save the emergency!"

It turned out that this was the reason for going around in such a big circle!

Shu Huan's nature is straightforward, and she doesn't like to think about those hidden schemes, but it doesn't mean that she is so stupid that she was sold to pay for the money, so she pondered for a while, and then asked: "The dowry gift from the Gu family is spent. Finished?"

When this question was asked, the faces of the Shu family and his wife immediately became uncomfortable, and Shu Fu showed a bit of shame, and only sneaked a glance at Mrs. Xu.

After all, Xu's temperament is much more aggressive, and he froze for a moment, then snapped his fingers and said: "You are really not in charge of the family and you don't know Chai Migui! Your father and I are marrying our daughter, not selling our daughter, how much can this betrothal gift be? Let me tell you, I borrowed the money to honor Jiang’s matchmaker back then, so I have to pay it back? For this alone, more than half of the dowry money has gone! It took countless money to raise you so big. If you lose everything, you have to redeem it? Half of the money has gone! The rest of it is used to entertain relatives and neighbors. I left it for your sister

! "

As she said that, she glanced at Shu Huan with great dissatisfaction: "You haven't forgotten, have you? Your sister is only three years younger than you, and she will be married in two years. I see, she is not as lucky as you." , can marry into a rich family with rich clothes and fine food, in order to let her in-laws look up to her, why don't you have to back up the dowry generously?"

Xu Shiyuan was still explaining, but as he spoke, a sour feeling suddenly appeared in his heart, and then he raised his eyes and glanced, the decorations in this hall were either gold and jade or copper and silver, and the light gauze dress and exquisite jewelry on Shu Huan's body It made her jealous even more, and she couldn't control her emotions any longer, and said accusingly: "You are flying high now, and your father and I don't expect to have any glory with you, but your younger brothers and sisters are still young. Anyway, you care about them, and you can drag them as much as you can, and there is no reason to watch your younger brothers and sisters starve to death when you have enough food and drink yourself."

If she wanted to continue talking, Shu Huan felt that she should become the number one shameless person in the world, not only unworthy, but also ungrateful! So he quickly raised his hand to stop Xu Shi and said, "Wait a moment."

She turned around and entered the inner room, took a silver ingot from the rosewood carved box for jewelry, and weighed it twice in her hand.

The silver is heavy and feels full.

This is the monthly money that she just got two days ago. She originally wanted to save it up to pave the way for herself, but she didn't expect that the original owner's parents would come to ask for the money, so she might not be able to keep it now.

When the money was handed over to Mrs. Xu, Shu Huan could clearly see that her eyes were shining brightly, her whole face was stretched, and the gaze she was looking at was much more gentle and kind. She couldn't help sighing secretly, and said, "I am I just got married, and I don't have any savings in my hands, only these ten taels of silver, so save some money."

As she said that, she looked at the food box on the table and said, "I won't need to spend money to buy things in the future, the Gu family doesn't lack these."

There is a saying that she didn't say, the wool comes from the sheep, she doesn't want to be that little sheep that is always shaved.

What's more, Chongxi is selling his daughter in disguise. If the Gu family didn't pay enough dowry, who would marry their daughter? If one fails, she will be a widow for life! It can be seen from this that the Shu family and his wife definitely do not lack money, at least they should be much richer than her! Come to cry and complain, just want to get more money!

Thinking of this, her mood suddenly became depressed. No matter what, she felt that Mrs. Xu looked at her like she was looking at a cash cow.

To repay the love of taking over the original owner's body, within the scope of her ability, it is no problem for her to help the original owner's family properly, but if they always treat her as a stupid pig and slaughter her, she doesn't want to close her eyes with a smile, In order not to help others, so as not to be left behind, and be treated as a fool

!

Obviously, Mrs. Xu didn't know what was going on in her heart, and really took her for a fool. He touched the money and smiled for a while, then suddenly said: "Your sister has been picking up your old clothes all these years, and she is so sloppy. , I thought, take this money back and tear off two clothes for her first, then the rest will not be enough to chew on for two months."

As she said that, she glanced at Shu Huan's wrists, on which were a pair of exquisite red gold twisted silk bracelets.

Shu Huan followed her gaze, smiled, and said, "Is that so—"

She raised her voice and shouted: "Good day!"

Xu was a little panicked: "What are you calling the maid for?"

Shu Huan didn't answer, Liang Chen lifted the curtain and came in after a while: "Second Grandma calling me?"

"En." Shu Huan reached out to untie a bunch of keys from his waist, handed them over and said, "Open the box, and bring the two pieces of fabric that Grandma sent over last time."

Liangchen agreed to go.

Xu's side wanted to stop her, but Shu Huan already smiled and said, "I don't have anything else, but I still have two bolts of good fabric, so I'll take it back and make two new clothes for my sister, girls, you always want to wear it." Just dress up nicely."

Finally, Mrs. Xu still had some sense of shame, and said anxiously: "Why are you taking this conspicuous thing out so carelessly? I think you should give me a few taels of silver, and I'll go to a shop outside to buy it!"

Shu Huan lowered his eyes, didn't look at her, and said, "How can there be any good ones in the shop outside? The asking price is also expensive! Besides, I have no money here, so I only have two pieces of jewelry left, which were also gifts from the elders. Every day I go there, I have to pay my respects." Wearing it is considered respectful. If mother thinks these things are too conspicuous when she goes out, then I will send someone to send them later."

Xu Shi was dumbfounded by her, squinting at Shu Fu, seeing that he was speechless, his face sank immediately.
