Chapter 4277: Some are happy, some are sad
“Hey, people die for money and birds die for food. That couple used to be lazy people in the village. If they had any money, they would buy wine and meat and stuff it all in the hole under their noses. Gone." The man said.
“I was just thinking, looking at the two of them holding back their joy but not daring to show it when they left tonight, the general’s wife must have given them a silver reward that was eye-opening to them. "He said again.
The woman said: "That's for sure. This wave can capture Xu Dakui and give the general's wife a breath of relief. Da Wang and his wife deserve the greatest credit."
"And Xu Dakui before. When Dakui fell into the manure pit, no one dared to step forward, including us.”
"As soon as the general's wife said a word, the two of them rushed forward to fish for people in the cesspit. They rolled up their sleeves and directly inserted their arms into the cesspool. To be honest, they were the only ones with this money. You have the ability to make money," she said.
The man nodded and sighed: "That big Wang, before this happened, he was brothers with Xu Dakui. The two of them went to the county town together to drink wine and visit prostitutes."
"For money, I sold this good brother who wanted to be the boss all at once. He is really a fair-weather friend!" he said.
“Hmph!” The woman snorted disdainfully and said, “Those people are the least loyal and will fall out of favor faster than anything else. You are not allowed to associate with them, and you must not be fooled by them!”
The man said: "Don't worry, I'm not that kind of person. I'm just wondering now, how much silver reward did Da Wang and his wife get? How do they plan to spend it next?"
The woman sneered, "I'm not saying that they, as a couple, can share adversities but not wealth and wealth."
"Just watch, I'm just going to put it here, the more money they will get." The easier it is for something to happen!”
……
“A sneeze!”
Da Wang’s wife suddenly sneezed loudly.
"Who the hell is scolding me?" She raised her hand to wipe her nose and said to herself.
Beside her, her man Da Wang was eating a plate of salt and pepper peanuts in his hand, making a crunching sound.
"I'm not scolding you, I'm jealous of you." Da Wang said with a smile.
Da Wang’s wife was startled for a moment, and then she understood.
"That's right, we got such a large amount of money tonight. From now on, we can eat whatever we want and buy whatever we want. Who doesn't envy me?" she said proudly.
"Hey, daddy, can the money in this banknote really be cashed? It's such a thin piece of paper, like a leaf. I'm worried that it will break if my fingers are a little heavier. !" She said with excitement.
“Oh my dear, you must be careful, we will all depend on this banknote for the rest of our lives!”
Da Wang rushed over and carefully walked over. The woman took the banknote in her hand.
"Sixty taels of silver. Our family of seven eats, drinks and eats together all year round, so we have to spend a whole five taels of silver." Da Wang calculated and said,
"Yes For these sixty taels of silver, we can sit back and take advantage of everything. Years! In twelve years, when our two sons have grown up and married, our daughter will also get married, and our parents will probably have passed away. By then, we will be able to rely on our sons and daughters-in-law to support us for the rest of our lives. , we don’t have to endure hardship!”
The more Da Wang talked, the more excited he became, and his saliva was flying and his eyebrows were dancing with joy.
Da Wang’s wife also got excited after hearing this, her eyes brightened.
"Are we just thinking about sitting in vain for these twelve years? Don't we want to use this money to make money again? Who would have too much money?" said the woman. Da Wang's eyes flashed, "It makes sense. When the time comes, I will use it as a loan shark. The interest will compound and the money will beget money. Haha, don't say that we have been sitting on our hands for twelve years, and we will be able to enjoy the rest of our lives."
On the same night, in Xujia Village, except for Xu Dakui’s family, almost every other family was very happy.
Because they went to receive the reward according to their heads. At this time, there were also two hundred coins, and those with four hundred coins took the money.
Some people’s children were also included, and they received a total of 500 coins!
With these few hundred pennies in hand, I feel confident for the start of spring. I don’t have to go hungry during this lean year.
The most important thing is that the money is easy to come by. I stopped in the backyard of Xu Dakui's house, chased and intercepted them, and got the reward. This general and his wife are really generous!
As for Xu Dakui's house at the entrance of the village, the joyful atmosphere lingering over the whole village did not enter Xu Dakui's house at all.
On the contrary, there was crying in the room, which had been barely stopped before.
In Xu Cailing's room, the lights were on. Xu Cailing was lying on the bed with her eyebrows closed and her face pale and weak.
Mrs. Lu was sitting by the bed, holding an empty bowl filled with medicine in her hand, her head buried in tears.
There was a brazier in front of the bed. Xu Dakui was wrapped in a quilt and sitting on the edge of the brazier to warm himself up, his teeth clicking together and making a "clucking" sound.
"Why, why am I so unlucky this year? I froze to death, almost died..." Xu Dakui said tremblingly.
Lu glanced at Xu Dakui and said, "No one will feel sorry for you if you freeze to death. Who asked you to run to the latrine?" Come over and catch me..."
Mr. Lu said: "Stop talking, I'm upset after hearing this, and I'm covered in shit. There's shit in your mouth!"
"You are a man after all, so this little bit of suffering is nothing, but Xiaoling, the poor girl, is suffering all the time!"
"Yang Ruoqing's situation is nothing. The foot was so hard that Xiaoling was crushed to pieces.”
"The doctor came here earlier and applied medicinal wine and inserted silver needles and other things. Our daughter has thin arms and legs. She has never suffered such a thing since she was born!"
"It's one thing to endure hardship. , I just hope that this foot will not become a disease in the future. It will be very difficult for such a beautiful girl to have a lame leg. It will be difficult to find her husband's family!"
Hearing what Lu said, Xu Dakui was shocked! His face was also full of depression.
“I just said that that dead girl Xiaohua is a loser, a god of plague, and a broom star like her mother,” Xu Dakui said,
“I said at the beginning that I don’t admit it or not, You have to let me meet her father and daughter, are you okay now? I didn’t catch up with the meat and soup, but I got all the knives. What a bad luck!”
Xu Dakui said bitterly, attributing all these bad experiences to Xiao Hua, gnashing his teeth, and the muscles on his face were twitching!
Mrs. Lu was also so angry that her chest heaved up and down: "They are not good things. Xiaohua, that little bitch, doesn't regard you as his biological father at all. Anyone who cares about family ties at all would not act like this. Absolutely!"
Xu Dakui said: "Then what can we do? Who allowed that damn girl to meet the great general who protects the country? What can we, ordinary people, do to such a noble person?"
Mr. Lu narrowed his eyes coldly: "Father Xiaoling, we can't just swallow this bad breath. For our sake, Xiaoling, No matter what, we must do something to take revenge on Xiaohua, the culprit!”
