Chapter 345 (1/2)
The sleepy widow Chen rubbed her eyes and sat down on the ground, puzzled and said, ”Lao Lai, you're back.”
Don't you ask him to pack his clothes and see if there are any other things to move? Why are you back so soon?
”Xiao Yun, do you know how the village talks about us now?” Lao Lai's head was black and his face was like a dark cloud: ”it's that you don't do things cleanly, and those cheated men all get together to discuss, I'm afraid they want to count us.”
In fact, he didn't mean that, but I don't know why he said it. As a man, he always wanted to face up. Facing this kind of widow who had an affair with many men, he naturally felt resentful.
Now I'm with her. Although I didn't hold any ceremony, I bought her several new clothes and silver ornaments. I don't have much money. I'm going back to the bitter days.
”Lao Lai, this mouth grows on others, let them say it.” Widow Chen stood up and said, not caring.
Lao Lai was angry: ”what do you know? I didn't hear what others said. It's nice to be pointed out on the road. I'm not a widow like you. I'm used to losing face and skin. ”
Thinking about the thirty taels of silver robbed by the robbers, Lao Lai was also depressed. He could have been free for a while with this sum of money, but it turned out that
”Lao Lai, what's the matter with you now? Now settle accounts with me in the future, dislike me? Didn't you say you wanted to live with me and start over? ” As soon as widow Chen thought that they were still sleeping in separate rooms last night, she felt depressed.
Seeing that she was angry, Lao Lai turned his eyes and thought that it was not the time to tear her face. He helped her and coaxed her: ”well, I've also heard those dog bastards. I'll be angry with you. Don't care. There's not much money left in this family. We have to make money. ”
”How do you earn it?” Widow Chen glanced at him, and when she heard what he said, she was excited.
”The old way, you go to hook up with a few men, but you're afraid you don't have money?” Lao Lai said with his mouth in his mouth, it's a way to get rich, and he won't worry about having no money to spend in the future.
Widow Chen's face was cold and her eyes were like a sharp knife.
All of a sudden, I feel that this old rascal is very calculating, just like a pool of stagnant water. You can never guess what he is thinking.
Lao Lai's eyes darkened and he held her in his arms. He said in a soft voice: ”OK, don't stare. How can I sacrifice you to sell yourself? I mean, with Xue Tian's method, let's go to the town to do some work. When we have money, we will hide in the village. No one can find it. ”
He is a genius who can always think of these quick ways to get rich.
”No, you didn't mean Xue Tian had a big ticket. It was the last time. Our reputation was not very good before, and we have to be honest in the future. I don't want to do that any more. Let's work hard with our own hands and live a stable life, OK? ”
Widow Chen firmly objected that besides renovating the house and buying some things, she still has more than ten liang of silver left in her family. As long as she saves a little on weekdays, she will not worry about food and clothing for one or two years.
She embroiders some silk handkerchiefs, and Lao Lai goes to the fields to work. She will surely live a better life in the future. What do you have to do that is unconscionable and immoral? Be careful of being punished by heaven.
Seeing that she couldn't make sense, Lao Lai took a meaningful look at her and then turned to go out.
Old Xue family
The fairly wide yard is full of well preserved logs.
Yang Kexin's vision is falling on the man who is working hard.
He has a handsome face, clear eyes, straight nose, even wearing a few patches of coarse cloth clothes, do not affect his handsome appearance.
