The Green Lotus Peasant Girl

Chapter 38: Borrow silver

Views:

For this reason, Li Qinghe was convinced.

"That is to say, we still have to pay back the money in the future, right?" Needless to say, we all know that ten taels of silver must be borrowed. If the Zhou family can afford it, the marriage of the Zhou family brothers will not be possible. so.

Zhou Chengkang didn't refute, and his face was full of guilt, "I'll earn for you in the future, and I will do whatever you ask me to do. I will keep all the money I earn, and let me chase chickens and never dogs."

Seeing Li Qinghe glaring at him, he smiled and explained in a low voice, "There are a lot of entanglements here. The third brother borrowed it, and the Zhang family insisted on it. If I don't borrow it, the debt is completely mother's. What will happen to her for the rest of her life?" You don’t have to do anything, just pay off the debt, maybe it’s not enough. But if I take five taels, things will be different, and then..." The boss and the second child of the Zhou family are also involved here. They must not be willing to help, and in the end , Whoever spends it must pay it back.

Zhou Chengkang fed the fish, and Li Qinghe went to see the chicks. It was fine during the day, but it was very cold at night. The chicks didn’t grow long, and their fur looked messy. They seemed a little embarrassed. Get closer, it should be better."

Zhou Chengkang listened carefully, "I'll try."

After the spring planting, the villagers usually weed and weed, and they are not too busy.

When Zhao Wanwan was there, she didn't feel it. One month after she left, Li Qinghe went to pick vegetables in the backyard again, and suddenly felt that something was wrong. All kinds of vegetables that used to be crops in the field were still being eaten here, and they had already grown out there. , but now, there are only a few old vegetables left, and they will be barren after they are cut down. Seeing that these few vegetables are eaten, there will be no food to eat at home.

Well, she didn't talk about it at all. If she talked to Li Fu too much, he would still feel that she was provoking. Not only did Li Qinghe not say anything, she also ran to get a hoe to dig the ground and plant vegetables. No matter how economical she was, she would finish eating in two or three months. At that time, she was already married. Naturally also know.

Planting vegetables here, someone knocked on the door outside, after a while, Yu Yan came to the backyard, lowered her voice, "Are you still growing vegetables?"

Li Qinghe understood what she meant, it was time to prepare for marriage, and it was too late to embroider the wedding gown. Besides, Yu Yan lived close to her, so she also noticed that Qian Shi didn't seem to like to work.

She smiled indifferently, "I want to eat too." Although she has been helping in the town for the past two years, she has indeed eaten at home in the past few months, and she should grow vegetables.

"That's true." Yu Yan squatted beside her, watching her work with her hands in her hands.

There were not many times when she was so lazy and disregarded her image. Li Qinghe glanced at her, saw that she seemed to be in a daze, and asked, "See you like this? What's the matter?"

Yu Yan looked at her, "Xu Changjie came to me again, saying that he liked me, and if I wanted to, he was willing to fight for her mother. What do you say... How about the Xu family?"

"Not good." Li Qinghe shook his head, "I have a good relationship with you, and to tell you the truth, many people have seen the relationship between Xu Changjie and the girl from the Yang family in the town. What do you like about him? ?”

"He looks good!" She said tentatively with a firm tone, "By the way, the Yang family doesn't like him either. I heard that the girl from the Yang family is already discussing marriage."

Li Qinghe was speechless, and asked, "You have good looks, and you also have skills. Your skills make more money than men. What kind of things do you have? You have to find him? Are you not afraid of his mother's aggressive appearance that day?"

"You seem to be prejudiced against him?" Yu Yan was puzzled, "You don't know the Xu family well, do you?"

Then I can't tell you how many years after I married into the Xu family. Li Qinghe waved his hand, "You're right, I have a prejudice against him, you can judge for yourself, if you ask me, how is the Xu family, I'll just say two words!"

not good! !

Yu Yan nodded, "I understand." Standing up, she grabbed the seeds on the side and helped her scatter them in the dug hole.

Planting vegetables is actually quite fast, and the backyard can be planted in one day, including the corners. The next day, Li Qinghe stayed at home to embroider dowry except to feed fish and chickens in the field.

On this day, Zhou Chengkang took her to the town to look at the furniture. It was said that the beating was almost finished. When getting into the carriage, Zhou Chengkang motioned to the carriage, Li Qinghe was surprised, opened the curtain and saw Zhang Haiyao sitting in the carriage with a bundle.

"Qing He, come up quickly." Seeing her lift the curtain, she greeted her warmly, "Sit here, you're welcome."

Li Qinghe: "..." My own fiance, I will not be polite.

"I'll just sit outside." Li Qinghe smiled and refused, but Zhang Haiyao reached out and couldn't help but pull her in, "Come in and let's talk."

In fact, it was a bit embarrassing because they were not familiar with each other, but the relationship between the two was so close that they couldn't stand in the cold, so Li Qinghe thought about sitting outside. Now that she came in, she asked with a smile, "Where is the third sister-in-law?"

"I'm going back to my mother's house." Zhang Haiyao smiled, "I still want to ask you to go back together."

Zhang Haiyao's father and Mr. Zhang of the Xu family are cousins, and since they have no other brothers, the cousins get along just like real brothers.

She immediately refused, "I won't go, I'm a bit busy today, I have to look at the furniture, if it's ready, I have to pull it back today, and find a good place to store it so it won't get wet."

"That's it," Zhang Haiyao was stunned, and lowered her voice a little, "Actually, I think we are destined for each other, so we are still sisters, and we will be sisters-in-law in the future."

This sister, from Xu's point of view, if Xu brings her into the Zhang family, she can barely be regarded as the daughter of the Zhang family, then she can indeed be regarded as a sister, but she has never been to the Zhang family a few times, and everyone recognizes her. Incomplete, not to mention Zhang Haiyao, she doesn't even know Zhang Haiyao's father, what kind of sisters are these

At that moment, she smiled and didn't answer, waiting for her to continue.

But Zhang Haiyao talked about the child born to the Xu family, "Haiya has been studying for a few years, and in two years, he might be able to go to the county to take the county exam. If he gets the honor, his status will be different. "

She was rambling, and she didn't know what she was going to say. She would go to the town quickly by carriage, but now that she had reached the entrance of the town, she still didn't say anything.

After parting, Li Qinghe asked in a low voice, "You third sister-in-law, what are you trying to do?"

Zhou Chengkang was also skeptical, "It's probably just gossiping, isn't it embarrassing to just sit?"

That's right, Li Qinghe didn't take it seriously, and went to a furniture store. She made a complete set of tables and chairs, as well as cabinets and dressing tables in the house, including wooden basins, but any girl from a better family would know After getting all these things ready, I pulled them back. When the man was helping to move them to the carriage, Qian Laiman came over from the opposite furniture shop, "Qing He, are these yours?"

"Yes." Li Qinghe could face him calmly.

Qian Laiman seemed to be quite calm, "Why don't you go to my side, I can do better for you, and I can talk to the boss about it and it will be cheaper for you."

Zhou Chengkang came over, smiled and said, "I know this place well, and it's just as cheap."

Pushing back neither soft nor hard, Qian Laiman smiled a bit reluctantly, "I haven't congratulated you yet."

"I heard that you got engaged earlier than us, so why don't you see your engagement date?" Zhou Chengkang looked at the opposite side, "No matter how important it is for you to earn money, you should also pay attention to your daughter-in-law. Only after you get married can you feel at ease."

Hearing the last sentence, Li Qinghe secretly pinched him, Zhou Chengkang didn't change his face, "You must come when the time comes."

After the furniture was installed over there, the two of them got into the carriage, and they could still feel Qian Laiman's gaze behind him. This time, both of them were sitting outside, and they only heard him say, "Do you think I can't see that he has ulterior motives?" Also snorted lightly.

Li Qinghe laughed, there is no market today, there are not many people in the town, and almost none of them returned to the village. When they saw two people, they waved quickly.

Zhou Chengkang's carriage stopped, and Zhang Haiyao climbed up. Seeing that the carriage was full, she was a little stunned, "How do you sit here?"

"I can't sit down anymore." Zhou Chengkang thought for a while, "Why don't I go back first and pick up the third sister-in-law later?"

"Alright." She grabbed Li Qinghe, "You go back first, Qinghe and I walk slowly, and we can talk."

Watching the carriage leave, Li Qinghe looked at her, "Sister-in-law San, what do you want me to do?"

Zhang Haiyao was a little embarrassed when she was told her thoughts, "There are indeed some things I need to discuss with you. It's a bit complicated, let's talk slowly."

Li Qinghe walked away, and Zhang Haiyao trotted to catch up, "There are some things you don't know, and your mother didn't tell you. On the other side of Haiya, the eldest aunt didn't want him to continue studying, so she asked him to go home and learn to settle accounts in the shop." , I will be the accountant in the future."

As for the child born by Xu, Li Qinghe has never seen him a few times in his two lifetimes. He said that he is a half-sibling. Basically, she looked down on Xu when she went to the town to find him. In fact, she was not as good as Zhao Wanwan. This unrelated sister is very familiar.

Having said that, Zhang Haiyao paused, waiting for Li Qinghe to ask, but saw that she continued to walk forward without looking back, so she had to catch up, "Your mother has no choice but to ask my father."

Li Qinghe finally turned around and looked at her, "What do you say?"

Seeing her reaction, Zhang Haiyao felt a little complacent, "My father is still thinking about it. He has a good relationship with Second Uncle. If he really intercedes, Second Uncle will definitely agree."

"Your father doesn't agree?" Li Qinghe asked.

"Agreed." Zhang Haiyao smiled, "Hai Ya will be finished after two years of study, this is what my father said. I just want to..." She paused, "I'm asking you to borrow some money, I'm tight. "

Borrow money

Co-authoring and going around such a big circle is to borrow money, and seeing the complacency in her eyebrows, I'm afraid I never thought that Li Qinghe would not borrow money, let alone repay the money.

According to what she said just now, she only said to borrow it, but didn't say how long it would take to pay it back.

The two walked for a while, seeing her silent and silent, Zhang Haiyao couldn't help but said, "We are all relatives, everyone should help each other."

"I don't have any extra money." Li Qinghe finally looked at her, "All my money is urgent."

Zhang Haiyao was stunned, paused in place, quickly realized, and chased a few steps, "No, my father will help to intercede with Haiya, he spends too much for studying for a year, and my aunt is not willing to pay the money. If it weren't for my father, Hai Ya would definitely not be able to read it!"

She almost yelled out the last sentence, and she was a little out of breath.

Li Qinghe turned around and spread his hands, "There are so many people who can't read, why don't they live their lives as usual, besides, he still has parents, studying and taking county exams includes getting married and having children, so it's not my turn to worry about it!"
