Chapter 57 Selling Ginseng Money

Su Caixia was also very sad at home since she was a child. She was not welcomed since she was a child. The old lady liked Su Baozhu the most and thought she was a loser. She used her as a maid since she was a child. Uncle Su was also patriarchal, and only Aunt Su was It was okay for her, but it was just okay, and my heart was partial to Su Baozhu.

Su Caixia had no job and no income. She was stuck in the small yard every day, serving the whole family. Sometimes Aunt Su would give her three or two cents when she was in a good mood, but not often. many.

The only little money Su Caixia had was given by Second Aunt Su, which she had saved over the years without spending it.

Su Caixia is a few years older than Su Jiao, and she is not married yet. The reason is that the old lady demands a high bride price. To put it bluntly, the old lady Su wants to sell her at a good price so that she can give Su Baozhu a wife.

Su Caixia is good-looking, but rich people are not fools. Anyone who asks around will know the virtues of this family. If you marry Su Caixia, it will be like being attached to the leech of Uncle Su's family. , so I have been putting it off until now and still haven’t found a suitable home.

"Sister Caixia, you're just here. What did you bring with you? It's no secret." Su Jiao was stunned for a moment when she saw the 6 eggs in the basket and said politely.

Su Jiao knew Su Caixia's situation best. She knew that Su Caixia must have no money. She was really surprised to see these eggs, but it was also a bit expected.

Because Su Caixia has had a very upright character since she was a child, and knows propriety and etiquette.

When Su Caixia saw Su Jiao's refusal, she put the basket on the ground and hurriedly said that it was right and would not give Su Jiao another chance to refuse.

Su Jiao knew Su Caixia's temper. If she didn't accept it, Su Caixia wouldn't eat this meal, so she didn't refuse.

"Hello, sister Caixia." Ye Yao heard Su Jiao speak and understood that the person who came was the sister Caixia just mentioned, and she obediently began to say hello.

"Hey, you are Yaoyao. You are so good. You can even help your sister-in-law light the fire. That's awesome!" Su Caixia said with a smile.

The little guy's face turned red after being praised.

The noodles cooked quickly and were cooked quickly. Su Jiao took the noodles out and immersed them in cold water, then brought the noodles and marinade to the Kang table, and the three of them started to have lunch.

Su Caixia's eyes turned red as she looked at the large bowl of fried noodles that Su Jiao served her in front of her.

She didn't expect that Su Jiao's attitude towards her would become so good when she came back this time. The noodles looked like they had a lot of white flour added to them, and the marinade was also a rare egg marinade. It was like treating a distinguished guest.

But the more this happened, the more uncomfortable she felt.

Su's father and mother had been very kind to her since she was a child. Su's mother even gave her eggs when she was a child, but their family was still treating Su's father and his family like this, lying on Su's body to suck blood every day. This made Su Caixia feel extremely guilty, and even Feel ashamed.

Su Jiao saw that Su Caixia's mood was not right, and quickly calmed down the atmosphere and said: "Today Mingyuan went to the city to pay the public rations. It seems that he won't be back until the afternoon. He can't eat such delicious noodles. I'll let him when he comes back in the afternoon. You have to covet him."

Su Caixia was interrupted by Su Jiao's witty words and couldn't help but laugh.

"It's delicious. My sister-in-law's cooking is the best." Ye Yao, the little guy, had already eaten the noodles that Su Jiao had mixed for her. When she heard Su Jiao's words, she quickly praised her.

"Yao Yao said it's delicious. Sister Caixia, hurry up and try it to see if it suits your taste." Su Jiao said.

"Hey" Su Caixia also quickly ate a chopstick, then pointed her fingers and praised, "It's delicious, Jiaojiao's craftsmanship is really good."

The atmosphere on the kang became better, and Su Jiao began to chat with Su Caixia while eating.

After dinner, Su Caixia thanked Su Jiao, and then said goodbye. She was anxious to go back and clean up. After all, no one had lived in the house for several months, so she couldn't clean it properly.

The two chatted while eating. Su Jiao learned that Su Caixia was going back to the city tomorrow morning, and she happened to be going to the city with Wu Xiaoqin tomorrow, so she made an appointment with Su Caixia to go together tomorrow morning.

Su Jiao also deliberately made clichés while chatting. She found out that the old lady was bringing Second Aunt Su back to stay for two days the day after tomorrow. Su Caixia was rushing home tomorrow to cook and wash clothes for Second Uncle Su and Su Baozhu. .

In fact, Su Jiao has always been puzzled. The old lady took Uncle Su's family to the city and they had to spend money on food and clothing. How did they survive? How can their monthly filial piety to the old lady be enough to support Uncle Su's family? They haven't starved to death in the city for so many years. Su Baozhu also engaged in food, drink, whoring and gambling. Where did all the money come from? Really Is it the old lady’s savings?

But the Su family are also farmers. How much savings can the old lady save? How much will she have left after buying a house in the city?

Su Jiao was full of doubts now, and it was hard for her to embarrass others by asking Su Caixia such detailed questions, so Su Jiao decided to secretly inquire about the situation of the old lady and Uncle Su's family in the city when she went to the city tomorrow.

Since you want to get rid of this family of leech, of course you must know yourself and your enemy to be victorious in every battle.

Su Jiao sent Su Caixia away and took a nap with Ye Yao in her arms. After waking up, the little guy couldn't wait to go to the club to play with his friends.

At about four o'clock in the afternoon, Su Jiao was turning mushrooms in the yard, and Ye Mingyuan came back happily with a basket in his hand.

"Why are you so happy? Did you find money on the road?" Su Jiao asked with a smile when she saw Ye Mingyuan almost floating when he walked.

Ye Mingyuan didn't say anything. He pulled Su Jiao into the house with a smile, put the basket in his hand aside, then took out a cloth bag from his arms and stuffed it into Su Jiao's hand, and said happily with his big white teeth: "Daughter-in-law, Take a look."

Su Jiao felt that the cloth bag in her hand was heavy and square. She opened the bag in confusion and found a pile of 10 yuan in unity.

"Why so much money? Did you go to see Meng Long?" Su Jiao was surprised, and then quickly realized that this should be money from selling ginseng.

"Hmm, after checking the public rations, I told the captain that I was going to visit my classmates, and then I went to find Meng Long. Meng Long said that he just sold it two days ago for 1,500 yuan. There happened to be someone in urgent need. , the selling price is higher than expected." Ye Mingyuan said happily.

"My Mingyuan family is so good, they made so much money all at once." Su Jiao also said with a smile.

"Then I'm so good, isn't there any reward?" Ye Mingyuan said coquettishly, and then leaned his face in front of Su Jiao.

"Virtue." Su Jiao rolled her eyes at Ye Mingyuan and kissed him cooperatively.

Ye Mingyuan suddenly felt relieved, pointed at the money proudly and said, "Daughter-in-law, this is all yours now, you can spend it however you want."

Su Jiao ignored Ye Mingyuan's tricks and took the money to the Space Mall under the guise of putting it in the kang cabinet. The pile of money was too conspicuous. Ye Mingyuan didn't care anyway. Every time he wanted to use money, he gave it to him. She took it, it was safest to receive the money from the space.

"Have you had lunch?" Su Jiao put away the money and said looking at Ye Mingyuan who was still having fun.

"Daughter-in-law, I ate at Meng Long's house. By the way, Meng Long said he will come to our house as a guest next week." Ye Mingyuan said.

"Okay, they have done us such a big favor, but we have to entertain them well. You didn't say you were going to Meng's house in the morning, you didn't bring anything with you, and you went to eat at their house, how embarrassing it is." Su Jiao began. Talking.

"Daughter-in-law, it's okay. Meng Long won't care about it. We can just make up for it next time." Ye Mingyuan understood Su Jiao's thoughts and quickly comforted her.

What I was thinking about was that when I went to the mountains in the next few days, I would find a way to get some pheasants, hares, etc. to send to Meng Long, but I couldn't always take advantage of others.

In fact, when Ye Mingyuan got the money from Meng Long, he wanted to give 200 yuan to Meng Long. After all, Meng Long had done him such a big favor.

As a result, as soon as he opened his mouth, he was scolded by Meng Long.

Meng Long said that if he asked for money again, he would stop interacting with him and there would be no brother like him in the future.

Ye Mingyuan had no choice but to never mention the money again.

"By the way, wife, there is also this." Ye Mingyuan picked up the basket on the ground, "Daughter-in-law, Meng Long asked these two cans and candies to be brought back to Yaoyao. I couldn't refuse, so I took them back. When he comes to our house next week, we have to prepare gifts."

Su Jiao sighed helplessly and said: "You are a good friend everywhere, but he is too generous. Okay, don't worry if you have a lot of debt, there will always be a chance to pay it back in the future."

Ye Mingyuan was amused by the way Su Jiao frowned and sighed. He pinched Su Jiao's frown and teased: "Okay, my wife, your face is wrinkled like an old lady, be careful not to look ugly."

"Ah, you are ugly, you have become an old man." Su Jiao knew that Ye Mingyuan was teasing her, so she cooperated and stepped forward to squeeze Ye Mingyuan's face together with her hands.

The couple had fun and put their troubles behind them.
