Chapter 7124 The truth of the matter
At first hearing this, Yang Huamei was so shocked that the hoe's legs were shaking, and the pork hanging on the hoe handle almost shook to the ground.
“You guys just walk around, there’s nothing interesting to see.”
She swatted away those old ladies with flat mouths like flies, and in response to the screams of the old ladies He rushed into the house angrily.
In the main room, Dabai and Xiaohei glared at each other like two fighting cocks. Hongmei was caught in the middle and stretched out her hand to ward off the two brothers.
On the ground, there were kicked over matza and broken tea bowls.
"What's going on? How did it happen like this? It's only been two days since the good days, and you're already in trouble, aren't you?"
Yang Huamei slammed the hoe on the ground and struck a blow. He yelled at his two sons and scolded them.
Xiao Hei clenched his fists with both hands, arched his back, puffed out his cheeks, and stared at Dabai hatefully with his white eyes, as if he might jump up and hit Dabai on the head with his fist at any time.
Yang Huamei's outburst made him calm down a little.
Faced with Yang Huamei's questioning, Xiao Hei felt a little aggrieved. He pointed at Dabai opposite and complained angrily to Yang Huamei.
“It’s not me who is guilty, it’s my brother who bullies honest people!”
“What do you mean?” Yang Huamei asked again.
Xiao Hei pointed at the bundle rolled under his feet and the few stones scattered around the bundle, and almost cried.
“I picked him up like crazy, and he used a few rocks to fool people. This is not bullying an honest person!”
Yang Huamei glanced at the things on the ground and was confused.
"Dabai, what's going on? Why did you come all the way back carrying a few stones?"
Faced with Yang Huamei's questioning, Dabai was not as angry as Xiao Hei showed. Feeling aggrieved, he just smiled bitterly.
Yang Huamei then said to Xiao Heina: "Your brother didn't bring much money with him when he went out this time. He was starving and freezing outside. Don't act like a child. Be sensible. "
Xiao Hei shouted unconvinced: "You can't fool me, the burden is heavy, just take advantage of others!"
Yang Huamei recalled how happy Xiao Hei was when he took Da Bai's bundle at the edge of the field, and couldn't help but frown.
She turned around and said to Dabai with a bit of blame: "Your brother went to pick you up. You should understand what he is thinking."
"Mom didn't expect you to bring anything back. As long as your person is good, you shouldn't be fooling him with a few stones, right? "
Dabai still smiled bitterly.
Hongmei was caught in the middle and wanted to help explain, but was stopped by Dabai.
"Mom, this is my fault. My brother and I will admit our mistake and promise not to do this again next time."
And Xiao Hei became more and more confident after listening to Yang Huamei's words, stomping there Feet, snorting in the nostrils.
"Is it useful to admit your mistake? It makes me happy in vain, hum!"
"Xiao Hei, you almost got it!" Yang Huamei's face dropped.
“How old are you? Aren’t you that three-year-old kid who made such a fuss over a bite to eat? Aren’t you afraid of people’s jokes?”
Xiao Hei lowered his head and blushed in frustration.
Yang Ruoqing handed the pork belly to Hongmei: "Take it and burn it. This matter has been revealed and no more trouble is allowed."
Hongmei took the pork belly and immediately took it to the stove The house was tidied up.
When Xiao Hei saw the pork belly, it was as if he had seen a treasure, and all the previous frustrations disappeared.
“Wow, eating meat at noon? That’s great, that’s great. Sister-in-law, I want the braised one without potatoes...”
He shouted after Hongmei, but before he could finish shouting, Yang Huamei was slapped on the forehead. "It's just two kilograms of pork belly. How many bites can you eat without potatoes? Do you really think that you are a rich young man who can eat meat as much as you want?"
Xiao Hei rubbed his head and laughed. , as long as there is meat to eat, what does it matter if you get beaten and scolded a few more times? That's nothing!
"Then I'll get the potatoes, and I'll help my sister-in-law!"
Xiao Hei Saya ran away. Looking at the cheerful back of her little son, Yang Huamei was so angry and funny that she finally felt distressed. A sigh.
When she turned around, she found Dabai, who had been scolded by her earlier, lamely collecting things on the floor.
He lifted up the stools one by one and put them back in place. He picked up the stones one by one and put them in the corner. He patted the dust off with an empty handkerchief and folded them neatly on the table.
Seeing Dabai like this, Yang Huamei couldn't bear to say any more harsh words.
"Mom, come and clean up. You go back to the house and rest for a while. I will call you during dinner."
"Mom, everything is almost done. Sit down. My son has something for you. Look. "
Dabai sat Yang Huamei on the stool, then went over to close the door of the hall, then took out something wrapped several layers from his pocket and put it in Yang Huamei's hand.
"This is...silver? Where did you get the silver?"
Yang Huamei looked at the broken silver mixed with a few copper plates in her hand, and was shocked.
Dabai smiled and said, "I earned it outside during this period. For ten days, the total is twenty taels of silver and ten wen. I gave it to my mother for safekeeping."
Yang Huamei heard At these words, his pupils became wider and wider.
She held the money in her hand tightly, her face twisted in surprise.
In the past, when Wang Shuanzi worked in the school, he only had nearly two taels of silver in a month.
Dabai went out and made twenty taels of silver in just ten days. He is very capable, very capable.
“I was afraid of being spotted by thieves, so I deliberately picked up a few stones and put them in my baggage.”
Dabai explained the reason for the stones to Yang Huamei again, proving that he had no intention. Want to play tricks on his younger brother Xiaohei.
Yang Huamei had long been shocked by her eldest son's ability. Now that she heard his hard work, she was even more moved and her eyes were red.
She gave the money back to Dabai, and nodded repeatedly with red eyes, "It's my mother who blamed you wrongly. You keep this money for yourself, mother doesn't want it."
This is what my son earned. How could she bear to take the hard-earned money?
However, Dabai insisted on putting the money into Yang Huamei's pocket.
“You are my mother. No matter how much money I earn, I have to leave it to my mother for safekeeping. Don’t be too little, mother.”
Yang Huamei was so happy that she burst into tears. She shook her head repeatedly, "What can we do? Mom just loves you."
"Take the money. You will still need money later when you go out to do business..."< br>
“Mom, keep this money for me. I’ll go out to do business later. I need money. I will tell my mother how much I need, and she will just give it to me. "
"That's fine, but will Hongmei have any objections?"
< br>Yang Huamei knew that Hongmei used to be a good abacus expert in the shop, and she was responsible for accounting.
Dabai smiled: "Don't worry, mother, this is also what she means. Our mother has the final say, everything is decided by mother."
Dabai's sonorous words, no matter whether they are from filial piety or vanity. Yang Huamei was greatly satisfied with her heart.
“Sure, I’ll keep it for you.”
“By the way, son, what kind of business are you doing outside? How do you make so much money in just ten days?”
After being pleased, she couldn't help but curiously asked again.
