Chapter 934 The charming husband is at the door (14)
Considering Zheng's stingy temperament, this two taels of silver is probably the only thing Su Qiruo can ask for.
He originally wanted to withhold the silver, especially now that Su Qiruo got back the one hundred taels of silver.
Even if Zheng Shi really thinks that Su Fourth Sister's dirty hands and feet stole his money in the future, but the money will be gone after all, and Su Qiruo won't be able to get another penny from Zheng Shi.
Passed the warm pancake to Qiao Nian, and Su Qiruo ate one too.
Qiao Nian sneaked a look at Su Qiruo, but she didn't expect that she had been waiting for him to eat together.
Actually, although Su Qiruo wasn't willing to eat the omelette in the morning, she had already gone to the front yard to drink a bowl of thin rice soup.
No matter how stingy and stingy, it is hot anyway.
If you don't drink, you don't drink, Su Qiruo is not stupid.
My mother supported such a big family, even if she ate and drank to death, no one had the right to say "no" to her.
It's just that the fourth sister Su broke three bowls last night, and Mrs. Zheng was in pain, so she only made rice soup in the morning, and didn't even steam a bun.
Maybe it was steamed, but it was not left for her, both left and right are the same to Su Qiruo.
Su Qiruo and Qiao Nian each ate a piece of cake, the young man licked the corners of his mouth, his bright eyes blinked, and Su Qiruo couldn't bear to look at it.
"Eat a piece of cake to cushion your stomach, and I will take you to the town to eat meat buns later."
She really thought so, not to mention that Qiao Nian wasn't full, so was she.
Hearing the meat buns, Qiao Nian's eyes brightened even more.
He really likes this fairy sister more and more, how can she be so nice!
Su Qiruo locked the door and told Qiao Nian to leave.
"Wait a mininute."
The young man's voice was much lighter than yesterday, with a bit of vivacity that a child of this age should have.
Su Qiruo turned around and looked over, and saw Qiao Nian jogging to the bottom of the stove to pick up a dustpan of ashes and scattered them at the door, and then ran up to Su Qiruo with a flushed face, and raised her head to look at her.
"alright."
Su Qiruo asked in confusion: "What is this?"
Is it possible that there is still a lot of attention to throwing ashes when going out here?
Qiao Nian explained in a low voice: "The hands and feet of the people in the front yard are not clean. I'm afraid they will come and steal your things while we're not here."
Although the door is locked, the windows are easily broken. If someone has evil intentions, they can't guard against it.
Su Qi understood clearly, smiled and rubbed the boy's washed hair.
"Nian Nian is really smart."
Qiao Nian blushed, pursed her lips and said, "I saw your grandfather did this before going out, and I learned from him."
Qiao Nian didn't understand these things, but he just learned how Zheng Shi and the others did in their daily life.
This plant ash can't actually prevent thieves, but it can scare thieves.
Once someone steps on it, you can always find some clues through the footprints, the imprints on the soles, and the traces left on the road.
This cannot prevent professional thieves, but it is enough to prevent some villains.
"Let's go to the town today to buy some tools to repair the doors and windows, so we won't be afraid of people stealing them in the future."
If Su Qi is not afraid of someone coming to search her house, then it is not the case that Mrs. Zheng has not searched in the past.
Although her clothes are expensive, Mrs. Zheng won't touch them. Firstly, no one can wear them if they take them away. Second, Mrs. Zheng doesn't know how much her clothes are worth. It can't be a few copper coins, and it's not troublesome enough.
As for the others, she only had those boxes of books under the bed.
The Su family is not very literate, and no one is interested in these books.
In their eyes, these books are not as useful as a mouthful of steamed buns, so no one will move them.
If Su Qiruo didn't know where the remaining banknotes were in the book, how could others guess that Mrs. Lin left behind for her daughter?
This is also thanks to the dull temperament of the original owner, who never thought of looking for bank notes for a change after suffering and starving, so that Zheng Shi really felt that Su Qiruo had no money here.
If it weren't for Gu Nian's concern for the Lin family in the capital, the Zheng family would have kicked out Su Qiruo and Qiao Nian long ago.
Qiao Nian is alright, she can still do some work by yelling and cursing, but if Su Qi really eats for free every day, she won't do any work, and she will have to eat hot food without stopping.
Mrs. Zheng in the front yard didn't know that she had lost her bank note, and Sister Su didn't know that gold had fallen into her room.
Last night, Mrs. Zheng beat her severely, and Fourth Sister Su felt pain all over her body.
When she woke up, she dared not go to the main courtyard for dinner, so she went out clutching her stomach that was growling from hunger.
According to Zheng's temperament, there must be no cooking for her at home, so she has to go out and think of a way.
Su Qiruo and Qiao Nian have never gone out since they came to Lihua Village.
Now it's not too far to go to the town, but fortunately, when I got to the entrance of the village, I saw a bullock cart, and there were already a few people she didn't know sitting on it.
Qiao Nian shrank behind Su Qiruo with some fear. Ever since he was sold in an accident at Qiao's house, he was very afraid of strangers outside.
Even the people in the Su family's old house are better than those individuals in his eyes. Although the Su family bullied him, no one ever mentioned selling him to a flower building.
But those people whipped him at every turn, and said that if his face was sent to Hualou, he could become an oiran within three years and make a lot of money every day.
Qiao Nian was determined to die at the time, but it was Lin who saved him later.
He was grateful to Lin's in his heart, so no matter how the Su family treated him, he never thought of leaving Su Qiruo.
At least with him around, he can take care of her.
It's just that he didn't expect that she would suddenly change.
It became what he liked.
Feeling the fear of the people behind him, Su Qiruo gently took his hand, and said softly: "Don't be afraid, these are people from the village, we will follow them to make a bullock cart and go to town."
Although Su Qiruo and Qiao Nian didn't know the people on the bullock cart, they all knew her.
After all, Su Sanniang is not an ordinary person. Even if something happened to Su Sanniang, she would still be unmatched in these ten miles and eight villages.
"Is it the fifth sister of the old Su family?"
The lady driving the car looked at Su Qiruo with a loving smile on her face.
Su Qiruo nodded, if her age was ranked down in the Su family, she would indeed be fifth.
Many people in the village can't remember their names, they can only remember their ranks.
The aunt smiled again and said: "When your mother was young, she was the most handsome young man in our ten miles and eight villages. You are prettier than your mother."
After finishing speaking, he scratched his head embarrassingly, "Are you going to town?"
Su Qiruo nodded again and said, "Go and buy some pens and ink, I don't know what you call it?"
"Just call me Niu Da Niang."
Saying that, Aunt Niu spread the straw on one side herself, and said to Su Qiruo,
"Then get in the car, I'll take you for a ride."
