Chapter 112 I want to learn from you to catch ghosts

Seeing that she was so self-conscious, Mr. He muttered, "You must keep your word" and let her go.

After dinner, Mr. He took out the wooden box where the money was kept, "All the money from selling noodles during this period is here. Excluding the big strong woman's wages, it's about twenty taels of silver."

She put the wooden box on the table and pushed it in front of Shen Qingqing, "Check it out. Except for this ingot of silver, everything else is change. Just go back to the bank and change it into silver."

"Auntie, you can keep this money for yourself. It is usually used for buying vegetables and cutting meat. I still have money in my hand. If I don't have enough money, can I ask you for it?"

Shen Qingqing pushed the wooden box back and put one hand on it to prevent her from pushing it back.

Seeing her resolute attitude, Mr. He sighed helplessly and said, "Forget it, I'll help you save it. When the four children grow up, the house at home will definitely not be enough to live in. We will have to build another house, which will cost a lot of money."

There is also Shu Xiu, who has children studying, and has money to buy pens, inks, paper and inkstones. When the children grow up in the future, they will marry a wife and prepare a dowry...

Thinking of this, He suddenly felt that there was a long way to go.

Young people are ignorant and spend money lavishly. She has to secretly save some money behind her back. Selling noodles alone is not enough. She has to drive her family to the mountains to hunt.

How can someone so tall not work?

Shen Qingqing didn't know that He's thoughts had drifted to more than ten or twenty years later, and was teasing Meng Qixue by grabbing her little face, "What about you, don't you give your mother any of the money you make from selling shrimps and snails?"

Meng Qixue answered quite readily: "Fine, mother, how much do you want?"

"Bring them all here, Mom, let's see how much money you make."

Meng Qixue ran all the way into the room and came back soon holding a wooden box.

The wooden box was placed on the table with a clang.

Shen Qingqing raised her eyebrows when she heard the thick voice. It seemed like there were quite a few.

Meng Qixue happily opened the lid of the box and showed off to Shen Qingqing: "Hey, look, mother, these are all earned by Xuebao!"

There were several rows of copper plates neatly stacked in the wooden box, and two small pieces of broken silver were stuffed in the very corner. The lowest was seven or eight taels.

Meng Qixue put one hand on the box and the other on her hips, looking very proud: "How about it, am I good?"

Shen Qingqing pinched the tip of her nose in a funny way, "Awesome, when the time comes, Mom will ask the blacksmith to make a small cart for you, and you can sell snacks in front of our store."

Let’s see how capable she is and what she can sell.

Meng Qixue jumped up excitedly when she heard this, hugged Shen Qingqing's neck, and kissed her non-stop, drooling all over Shen Qingqing's face.

So enthusiastic.

Shen Qingqing was so enthusiastic that she couldn't even open her eyes.

"Little ancestor, mother is really afraid of you."

Shen Qingqing raised her head and sighed in confusion, and with a lot of effort, she pulled away the saliva-making machine stuck to her body, "Stop kissing me, let Grandma He fetch water for you to take a bath, and after the bath, the lady will tell you a story. "

The story was so attractive that Meng Qixue immediately turned around and grabbed the hem of He's clothes, urging her to get hot water, even forgetting her precious money box.

Shen Qingqing smiled and looked at Meng Qifeng, "I heard that your archery skills have improved again. Go get the bow and arrows and show your skills to mother."

Meng Qifeng nodded and ran back to the room like the wind.

The sky is dark at night, and even with candles illuminating things, things are not as clear as during the day. However, such a harsh environment does not seem to have any impact on Meng Qifeng.

An arrow was shot and hit the target.

Shen Qingqing clapped and helped him pull out the bamboo arrow, "Not bad, let's do it again."

Meng Qifeng took the bamboo arrow she handed him and shot another arrow, still hitting the target.

This accuracy is indeed a big improvement compared to before.

"Okay, with your skills you can indeed be my mother's teacher."

Meng Qifeng shook his head slightly, "No, compared with dad, I'm still far behind."

"There's no need to compare with others, in my mother's eyes you are just awesome."

Meng Qifeng blushed at her praise and buried his head shyly, even embarrassed to say anything.

Shen Qingqing touched his head, and when she looked back, the other two brats were also looking at her eagerly.

She raised her lips and smiled, asking them: "Have you learned any new skills during this time?"

Meng Qiyu couldn't wait to raise her hands and said: "I can collect money for my sister, a lot of money!"

"anything else?"

"My eldest brother and I learned archery together. Hey, I hit the target, it was amazing!"

Meng Qifeng was beside him and explained to him: "Yu'er also learned how to shoot arrows, but his shots were not very accurate. He was hit twice."

Shen Qingqing smiled, "It's already very good after two times. Yu'er is young and can learn slowly. Mom doesn't know how to do this. If you have time, help mom teach my brother more."

Meng Qifeng nodded obediently, "Okay."

Shen Qingqing turned to look at Meng Qiyun, "Where is Yun'er?"

Meng Qiyun clenched the hem of his clothes nervously, bit his lips and said nothing for a long time.

Seeing this, Shen Qingqing comforted her: "It doesn't matter if you haven't learned anything new. I'll tell you if you encounter anything interesting in the future."

Meng Qiyun suddenly raised his head and looked at her with bright eyes, "Is everything okay?"

Shen Qingqing suddenly had a bad feeling, "Do you have any ideas?"

Meng Qiyun nodded wildly.

She has ideas, she has so many ideas!

"I want to learn how to catch ghosts from you!"

This stumped Shen Qingqing.

You can make money quickly in this line of work, but there are countless disadvantages. What's worse is that if you don't do it right, your life will be in danger.

She has gone through that stage and knows the difficulties and dangers involved.

If there is a better choice, she still doesn't want Meng Qiyun to follow her old path.

Why throw yourself into the dead when you can make money while lying down?

Meng Qiyun saw that she had not let go, and straightened his chest and said: "A few days ago, I persuaded a kid who wanted to steal other people's buns to eat. I am very powerful, and I will definitely not embarrass you!"

Shen Qingqing took a deep breath, silently recited "calm down" three times in her heart, and then showed her a death smile: "You took the initiative to find the kid?"

Little bastard, you are really promising!

"I came across it when I was buying steamed buns. I had nothing to do, so I scared it and scared it away."

Meng Qiyun spoke calmly and calmly, as if a big boss had done good deeds and hid his merit and fame.

Shen Qingqing patted the bench next to her and said, "Come on, sit down and let us chat about this."

Meng Qiyun sat down as he was told.

"Tell me, why do you want to learn this?"

"Because you can make money."

Shen Qingqing: "..."

She doesn't seem to have abused the child, right?

"Mom can think of a hundred ways to make money for you. Find another reason that can convince me."

Meng Qiyun swallowed and gradually straightened his expression, "Making money is my purpose, but there is another reason. Another reason is that I can see ghosts."

"Others can't see it, but I can, which means I was born to eat this bowl of rice."

"I used to be scared to tears by all kinds of ghosts. If I learn how to catch ghosts from my mother, the next time we meet, they will be the ones crying."

Speaking of this, Meng Qiyun's eyes flashed with determination.

This is the price of scaring her!

She, Meng Qiyun, is not someone to be trifled with!
