Chapter 140 Tempting
The woman was shaken, and after a while she finally said: "I don't want to bet!"
Jiang Anning was slightly surprised, very surprised.
On the other hand, other people in the car couldn't help but smile and say to Jiang Anning: "Hey, girl, your method of provoking generals will not work on the Liu family. She is a timid person. When she hears that she has lost, Even if I win, I’ll give you money, not to mention ten taels of silver. Even if you tell her, I’ll give you one hundred taels if you win, and she won’t even have the guts to accept it.”
"Can you?"
"If it were me, I would definitely agree immediately without hesitation. When it comes to a sure win, I won't be as hesitant and timid as the Liu family."
As everyone said this, they couldn't help but burst into laughter.
It seems that this kind of thing has happened countless times.
Everyone seemed to have found an opportunity to ridicule the woman and began to talk non-stop.
"It's really interesting to talk about her. She was so categorical just now, saying that there is absolutely no embroidery in this world that can sell for hundreds of taels. Now she is just asking her to take it. What she was 100% sure of was just a bet, but she didn’t dare to do it again, hahaha..."
Others couldn't help but laugh too.
The woman's face turned red at the ridicule, and she cursed angrily: "That's enough of you! It's none of your business whether I bet or not. I want you to talk too much here. Be careful, all of you will have bad mouths!"< br>
Others saw her getting angry and didn't take it seriously.
"Does she still feel aggrieved? She is originally as cowardly as a mouse, but also very pushy and arrogant, but she has been outshone, and now she is not willing to let others talk about it."
< br>
"Hey, be careful you all have bad mouths~~~"
Some people exaggeratedly and artificially imitated women's speech, but it made people very angry.
The woman gritted her teeth, hesitated again and again, and swallowed the words "just gamble".
She can't be impulsive or get carried away.
Just say a few words if you are told a few words...
The woman kept comforting herself in her heart and pursed her lips tightly.
Seeing that she didn't respond, Jiang Anning stopped mentioning the topic.
Not long after, when the ox cart was approaching the entrance of the village, Jiang Anning called out and stopped.
When everyone saw that she was about to get off the car at Jiangjiacun, they were silent for a moment. You looked at me, I looked at you. No one was speechless, and they had a huge guess in their hearts.
When getting out of the car, Jiang Anning exclaimed: "Old man, I'm so sorry. I accidentally broke the board of your car just now."
She held a thick wooden car board in her hand and squeezed it apologetically and uncertainly.
Such a thick piece of wood, like a Tukarar, was easily crushed into powder in Jiang Anning's hands.
Everyone fell silent immediately, feeling a chill on their backs.
Even those who had just seen the money and were a little crooked now have calmed down and become honest.
Jiang Anning still understands the principle of keeping wealth secret.
But since it was exposed, it was necessary to add some deterrence.
"This little money should be treated as compensation for you."
Jiang Anning took out a small piece of silver and gave it to the old man driving the cart.
The old man was so frightened that he waved his hands repeatedly.
How could he dare to withstand this strange strength like that of the Mountain King?
Aren't you afraid that you are asking for life money?
"No, no, no, no, no, maybe this old bullock cart is old and broken, no, it's none of your business."
Jiang Anning directly stuffed the silver coin into the person's hand, and without giving the person a chance to argue, she turned around and left in a stride.
Everyone watched her enter Jiangjia Village with very excited expressions.
Especially on the field ridge near the entrance of the village, there were several women who were ordering beans. When they saw Jiang Anning coming back, their faces were filled with surprise. They even stopped ordering beans and said loudly: "An Ning! Oh, my God, you're still here." It’s really you An Ning, you are back! Everyone is looking forward to you!”
Tranquility...
Jiang Anning......
The expressions of several people in the car suddenly became more colorful.
When the bullock cart gradually moved away, and the people on the cart could no longer see the old millstone at the entrance of Jiangjia Village, Du Chunxue breathed out the breath she held in her mouth.
"Did we just... act like monkeys and make people laugh?"
Just thinking about complaining or even insulting others in front of me makes my toes dig into the ground in embarrassment.
No one took Du Chunxue's words.
Several people were silent with their own thoughts. After a while, the short and fat woman could not hold back and said: "Do you think what she just said is true? Can that embroiderer really make that much money?"
"If an embroidered handkerchief is sold for more than ten or twenty cents, I will laugh out loud. If it were true..."
At the price Jiang Anning said, all of them could become rich women.
"What others said may be exaggerated, but that's Jiang Anning!"
Du Chunxue was very excited: "It was mentioned in the official notice at that time that after the Jiang and Zhao families agreed on the marriage, Jiang Anning not only gave the Zhao family rich fields and gold and silver, but also built a large blue brick house for the Zhao family. Just to build three rooms!”
"Looking at how casually she took out ten taels of silver just now, she is definitely not short of money."
“I guess it’s to hide my eyes from others, so I dress very ordinary and low-key.”
"I'm not sure, it's not an ordinary clothing material at all. Isn't it the kind of fabric worth a thousand dollars that looks just like the rags that people wear when they work in the fields?"
“The fabric looks unremarkable and even exhaling, but when I actually wear it, it’s extremely comfortable.”
The woman instinctively wanted to open her mouth to retort, but thinking that just now Jiang Anning casually took out ten taels of silver with a nonchalant look on her face, she lost interest in talking for a while.
She felt very boring.
Even if you win the game, what will happen to these people?
No matter what, she couldn't come up with ten taels of silver, just as casually as having dinner with someone.
Jiang Anning must be really rich, right?
What she just said should be true, right?
There are indeed embroidered handkerchiefs that can be sold for ten taels or even a hundred taels of silver.
The woman pinched the cloth handkerchief in her hand and suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
She balled up the cotton handkerchief with some disgust and stuffed it into her sleeve.
Why?
Why is she so distressed when she can even use a piece of better cotton to make a handkerchief? People can spend ten taels, a hundred taels, or even more to buy an embroidered handkerchief.
The older money...
Where do they all come from? The woman was so agitated that she didn't even want to listen to what the people next to her were saying. She jumped off the bullock cart off guard and hurried back home.
The driver was startled by her sudden movement: "Eh? What are you doing..."
When he saw the person walking away in a hurry, he suddenly became anxious again: "Liu Er's family, what's the matter with you? You don't have any money yet! Hey! Hey!"
No matter how the people behind her yelled, the woman remained unaffected and hurried home.
The driver wanted to drive the old cow to catch up.
However, this cow is actually old, and it always moves slowly.
Even if the whip hits his body, he is not much faster than before.
Looking at the woman's figure, which had gradually become a little bit in the distance, the driver angrily stood by the car and stamped his feet, cursed a few more words, and sat back in the car helplessly, continuing Drive slowly and leisurely.
But he still couldn't help but said: "When I get back, I have to go to Liu Er's house and talk properly. How can this happen? He looked like he was about to sit down, and suddenly ran away without saying a word. ...It’s really unreasonable!”
"I have to ask Liu Er to spit out the money!"
No one answered. Everyone knew very well that Liu Er was a fool and would beat his own mother to death if he got ruthless.
No one in the village dared to go to his house to provoke him.
Want money?
Maybe if the front foot goes in, the back foot will be knocked out.
This is not bad luck!
Just be afraid, if someone beats you, he will apologize to you later, wait on you, and be determined to take care of you before leaving until you are healed. In fact, he will eat, drink and live in your house. , whoever dares to chase people away will inevitably be fooled, and they can only quickly "recover from illness and injury" and beg people to leave like begging grandpa to sue grandma.
When people leave, they have to take the initiative to send some rice, flour, grains and oils, etc., for fear that they will turn around and come back.
Who dares to provoke such a person?
The key is, Liu Er really dares to kill people!
Since ancient times, people who are stunned are afraid of being violent, and those who are violent are afraid of losing their lives.
No one wants to be tainted by Liu Er's recklessness.
The driver cursed for a while, but when he saw that they were only about three to five hundred meters away from their village, he hurriedly stopped, fearing that the bastard would be squatting somewhere and rush out to beat him when he heard what he said!
Everyone in the car was quiet for a while.
I don't know who it was, but he said abruptly: "The Liu family is also pitiful. With such a man in the stall, it's no wonder that she has to be picky about everything. The family is already like that. If she hadn't been more powerful Son, I’m afraid I’ll be chewed to the point where no bones are left!”
It is certainly impossible to say that the villagers have no complaints against Liu Er.
But what can you do if you complain?
No one dares to support him in front of others, even if they say something unpleasant, for fear that if they say something that cannot be dealt with, they will bring back such an evil god to live in their own family.
These days, life is tight for every household.
There are too many children in my family, and I can't even feed everyone. If I bring back such a gluttonous master who loves to eat and is lazy, how can I get better?
But no one is happy to just swallow this breath.
Isn't there someone who wants to make amends with Liu Er's family?
Anyway, he is a fool and doesn't care if the people in his family suffer because of him.
Even if his wife was pushed to the ground and beaten, he might just clap his hands and cheer for her, beg for a handful of melon seeds, and join in the fun.
What's more, it's a married outsider?
But it just so happens that the Liu family is also ruthless.
Once upon a time, someone had an idea for him and wanted her husband to repay his debt, so he dragged him into the field nearby.
Unexpectedly, Liu Er is a ruthless character, and the Liu Er family is no less.
At that time, one of them was hit on the head and bleeding, causing more air to come out and less air to come in.
It's a completely lifeless style of play.
It frightened those people at that time.
What was even more horrifying was that Liu Er found out later and took his wife, daughter and children into the house of the man whose head was broken, asking for an explanation.
He also said that when he had lived in this house for enough time, he would go back to the homes of the remaining people.
Two families were so frightened that they moved away overnight.
Later, it was the same few people who had their own evil thoughts and persuaded the person to leave by giving him money and gifts, pretending to be a grandson, as if begging grandpa to sue grandma.
Perhaps, what the ancestors said does make sense.
Two kinds of people cannot sleep in the same bed.
This member of Liu Er's family has been able to live with Liu Er for so many years and still have children for him. He is also a great person!
After hearing this, Du Chunxue and others could not help but think of the woman's situation and sighed a few words.
"She is indeed pitiful."
“It’s really not easy.”
"It's been so many years, I don't know how I survived. It's really hard for her."
It was as if he had just acted in front of others, and was not the same as them.
Even the coachman took advantage of the situation and said: "She is indeed a poor person, so I won't care about her not being paid for the ride. I will just treat her as a favor."
It was as if he really dared to go to Liu Er's house to ask for an explanation.
Everyone laughed and said nothing.
When they arrived at the village, everyone seemed to have nothing to do. They got out of the car, picked up their things, and went back to their homes.
No one mentioned anything about the car.
It's just that everyone is interested in being an embroiderer and selling embroidery products.
Especially Du Chunxue.
She wiped her hands on the cloth and brought the last dish to the table, muttering what she heard from Jiang Anning.
"...I don't know if Jiang Anning will accept an apprentice. It would be great if she did. I would ask Erya to follow her and learn both skills. I don't expect that one piece of embroidery can be sold for ten taels of silver, but I just want to earn one tael of silver a month." Two, that is also a huge amount of income. When the time comes, not only Da Ya’s dowry If we can buy something nice, even our Yaozu and Yaozong can be said to be a good wife, and maybe we can even get a daughter from a scholar's family! If we have a few bright and well-educated children in the future, we can also have money to send them. Go to the school to study and take the exam.”
The more Du Chunxue talked about it, the more pleased he became.
"Don't let others fool you. You can do whatever you want. Making embroidery is so profitable, why would she say it?"
Du Chunxue's man was very disapproving: "I see, maybe he just said it to deceive you. Once you believe it and think about sending the child away, it's time to ask you for money!"
"What the boss said makes sense. Boss, my wife, I think you should be content and don't daydream all day long."
Du Chunxue's father-in-law snorted coldly: "Pay more attention to family matters. Instead of pinning your hopes on Erya for the marriage between Yaozu and Yaozong, it's better to quickly find a good match for Daya!" ”
"In this world, even if there is any good thing that falls from the sky, it won't fall on us idiots for no reason."
Du Chunxue was scolded and felt disappointed, but she felt that it was justified.
