Chapter 103: Who wouldn't cry poor The old woman then paid attention to the mule and donkey led by Xia Gui and Xia Kucao, and saw that there were already so many people around, so she said, "Come in." ” Only then did the summer grass notice that the old woman's eyes were not very good, and she tied the donkey and mule before following her into the house.
Ahem, there was a sound of a strong cough in the house, and the old woman said, "What about the house, why didn't the willow branches and leaves come back?"
” "My mother has a body, and Lang Zhong said that her mother is weak and wants to raise a fetus, so she can't come."
Prunella Road.
Only then did the old woman look at the prunella grass, and said with a smile: "This is the son of Liu Zhiye, didn't you hear that she gave birth to a girl?"
” Prunella vulgaris is dressed as a boy, and it is also for convenience to go out, and it is more convenient to wear men's clothes when you are young.
But now listening to the old woman's words, that girl is as harsh as she listens.
Xia Gui was about to speak, but Xia Kucao pulled it and said, "Who did the old woman listen to?"
” The old woman didn't answer the words of the prunella, but the coughing old man inside spoke up, "Da Zhuang mother, who's coming?"
” "Leaves, she, man and child."
As soon as the old woman's words fell, Xia Kucao saw the old man in the house coming out with a cane, which must have been sick, but it didn't look like a person who was dying.
Xia Gui stood up and saluted Liu Kaiquan before saying: "You are Zhiye's father, I am Zhiye's husband Xia Gui, yesterday I heard Liu Chengchun say that you want to see Zhiye." ” "Where's the foliage?"
Liu Kaiquan looked at it twice, coughed twice, and asked.
Xia Gui said: "Zhiye has a body, it's inconvenient to come over, I'll bring the child over to take a look." ” Liu Kaiquan looked at Xia Gui and then at Xia Kucao, his eyes were a little excited and regretful, "Zhiye, this is my father, how is she now." ” Xia Gui said: "The branches and leaves are very good now. ” Anyway, Xia Gui has always been a stupid person, Liu Kaiquan didn't speak, and he couldn't find anything to say, and he didn't have much affection for the Liu family, so he wouldn't say anything.
Xia Kucao didn't say anything, his eyes kept looking at the old man, and his face was indeed very bad, like a person who had been sick for a long time.
It stands to reason that her mother's father would not be so old, looking worse than Liu Kui's body, and about the same age as Liu Kui.
It's just that she heard that her mother's stepmother gave birth to a son, where is the son?
And her mother's younger brother, why is he in his twenties, and it's time to marry a wife and have children, right?
"Da Zhuang's mother, what about Da Zhuang and his daughter-in-law?"
Liu Kaiquan asked.
The old woman pouted and said unhappily, "His daughter-in-law ran away, and he didn't chase him, and this son forgot his mother when he had a daughter-in-law." ” The fat woman Liu Zhihua said: "I just said don't let that woman enter the door, you just let her take my brother badly, otherwise my brother will ......"
Liu Kaiquan coughed lightly, glanced at Xia Gui and Xia Kucao, and said to the old woman and Liu Zhihua: "Go get some food to cook, my son-in-law came to the door today, let's have two drinks." ” The old woman glanced at Xia Gui and Xia Kucao and said, "There is no food at home." ” The old woman was not very satisfied with Xia Gui not bringing meat and vegetables or gifts when he came to the door.
In fact, it was also deliberately done by Xia Gui and Liu, Xia Gui and Liu wanted to prepare meat and vegetables and things to come over, Xia Kucao bluntly said that since his grandfather was sick, then use ginseng, and the meat and vegetables would not be brought.
So Prunella had a piece of ginseng in her arms, but now looking at the Liu family like this, Prunella didn't know if she could take out the ginseng she was carrying in her arms.
Liu Zhihua said directly: "Why don't you kill the donkey outside, I haven't eaten meat for a long time." ” Xia Kucao was directly angry, and stood up and said, "Dad, let's go home, we didn't come if we knew we wouldn't come, who is this." ” Xia Kucao pulled Xia Gui and was about to go out, I really didn't like the Liu family here, whether it was the old woman or the willow branch flower, it was very disgusting.
"Zhihua, what nonsense."
Liu Kaiquan shouted, and said to Xia Gui: "I don't know if you came to the door today, you didn't prepare, my old bones are useless, alas, I was wronged at the beginning." ” Xia Gui said: "If you have anything, just say it, Zhiye has a body at home, and he is also taking care of two young girls, and I am really not at ease." ” Xia Gui didn't want to stay longer, Liu Kaiquan sighed, and said: "There is something to ask for, Da Zhuang is in debt for trading with others outside, and all the valuable things in the family have been sold, and I have no money to treat this disease, I just want to see if the branches and leaves still recognize me as a father, and if you want to save my life." ” "I'm willing, how can I say that you also gave Zhiye a life, I'll go and help you invite Lang Zhong to take a look, no matter what, this disease will be cured."
Xia Guidao.
The old woman hurriedly said, "No need to invite Langzhong." ” Liu Zhihua even spoke directly, "You just give the money directly, and my father's illness can be cured with the money." ” Xia Kucao said in her heart, this old woman is not shrewd when she looks at it, she is as greedy and stupid as her daughter, Liu Kaiquan actually sold her mother for these stupid people.
Liu Kaiquan coughed lightly twice and said: "I have already seen Langzhong, but I spend a lot of money on medicine and treatment." ” Xia Kucao will be a little suspicious that Liu Kaiquan is not for himself at all, thinking that he just said that Shi Dazhuang is in debt for trading, Xia Kucao will feel that the Liu family is in a big deal.
"What medicine do you need?"
Xia Gui asked again.
The old woman spoke: "Ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum are all precious medicines. ” "Ginseng ......"
As soon as Xia Gui's words fell, Xia Kucao continued, "We just brought two pieces of ginseng here." ” The old woman's face was sad and she said, "It's only two pieces, it's not enough." ” Prunella grass immediately said: "Then there is no way, these two pieces of ginseng were finally picked by my father in the mountains, and now there are only two pieces left, as soon as my mother heard that my grandfather was dying, she even took out the last two pieces of ginseng at home." ” Liu Kaiquan's eyes were filled with tears, "The branches and leaves are very good, I can't live with the branches and leaves." ” The old woman said, "You have even brought out the ginseng, and it seems that you are doing well, so why don't you keep one for us with this mule and donkey." ” Liu Zhihua also nodded hurriedly, Xia Gui hadn't refused yet, Xia Kucao had already spoken out, "This mule and donkey were borrowed from our uncle, not our family, my uncle said that if you borrow it once, you will give one tael of silver, and if you buy it, you will have to pay ten taels of silver for a head." ” "Ten taels of silver, so expensive, this is a money grab."
The old woman exclaimed, ten taels of silver can almost buy two mules.
"This is raised by my uncle's family, and we borrowed it today, and it cost half a tael of silver, which is still cheap for us."
Xia Kucao opened her eyes and said nonsense, and said to everyone: "Our family has no money, and my father and I are wearing old clothes.
My father doesn't study, my mother is a child daughter-in-law, and she has never been treated well by the old house, and she has lived a very hard life, and now she has passed under the name of my grandfather's dead cousin. ” Who wouldn't cry poor, she didn't say it badly.
