Chapter 131 The male protagonist’s best mother-in-law (18)
"But don't worry, Dalang, I didn't spend it all!"
Gu Qingcheng proudly took out a few silver coins from his arms like a child, "Here, there are still three coins left, which is enough for our expenses for this month."
As for why a month?
Of course, you can get both the principal and bonus back next month.
Gu Qingcheng smiled so hard that his eyebrows curled up, and his face, which brought disaster to the country and the people, was even more radiant and radiant.
When Zhao Qingyun looked at his mother like this, he felt like he didn't know where to vent his anger.
"At the end of the month, we will have money!"
Gu Qingcheng still felt that Zhao Qingyun had not been stimulated enough, so he continued to say what made Zhao Qingyun break his guard: "When I have money, I will buy the best rice paper for Dalang. I want to buy a lot of it!"
"And that Hu pen? I'll buy you one and let you use one and throw away the other without feeling any distress."
Zhao Qingyun was stunned, and the anger in his chest seemed to be frozen by something.
He stared blankly at his mother's joyful expression, and listened to her childish words with deep maternal love, "My eldest son is so smart, he is the best at writing and reading, so you should also use the best pen and paper."
of!"
"From now on, we won't use those cheap hemp papers anymore, let alone bluestone boards!"
"What kind of good things do you want to use? I'll buy them!"
"By the way, there's also that book you've always wanted to buy. Grandma will buy it for you! It's just over thirty taels of silver. Grandma can earn it back in a month!"
Gu Qingcheng was in high spirits, and his originally pale face looked a little more lively.
Zhao Qingyun was stunned, his heart seemed to be soaked in a hot spring, moist and warm.
It turns out that my mother wanted to make money all because of him.
Although my mother was stupid, her "business" was destined to fail.
But, this sincere maternal love is real and does not contain any impurities.
Zhao Qingyun sniffed gently, as if he could understand his father's feelings for his mother.
In addition to my mother's beauty and gentleness, more importantly, my mother is simple and sincere enough.
Father Zhao Guodong has been treated harshly by his family since he was a child. He lacks the love of his parents and cannot feel the love of brothers.
He lacks love and desires it extremely.
And her mother happened to be able to give her all, only, and sincere love (or dependence).
This is enough to fill the void in my father's heart.
Zhao Qingyun has a great father who is not short of love.
But while growing up, his mother's negligence caused him to mature too early.
His mind and calculations are far beyond his years.
And for a person who is full of evil thoughts and is extremely strong and independent, having a simple and pure close relative seems to be a kind of "compensation".
[That’s all, it’s just over a hundred taels of silver. As long as it makes my mother happy, let her do it. 】
[Although my mother is not smart enough, she loves me. And my mother did not remarry at such a young age, which is a huge sacrifice in itself!]
Zhao Qingyun is just good at calculation, not really heartless.
Knowing that his mother had been deceived, and knowing why his mother had been deceived, Zhao Qingyun no longer complained or was angry, only deeply moved.
Gu Qingcheng wanted to strike again.
She looked deeply at Zhao Qingyun, "Aniang can make money now, and she will be the one to support the family and support the family!"
"Dalang just study hard and be a good boy."
"...People outside will no longer slander the elder man as being unfilial and dare to dominate the widowed mother at such a young age!"
boom!
What is a fatal blow!
What does it mean to hit the soul directly?
This is!
As smart as Zhao Qingyun, just by listening to these few words from his mother, he can guess why his mother suddenly became so "competent".
You know, my own mother is more soft-hearted and soft-eared, but she has very little courage.
In the past, when I was deceived, it was just a minor incident.
For more than five taels of silver, she didn't dare to make the decision.
But this time, grandma went against the norm and actually took out all the money in the family at once.
She is not doing it to make money at all, but to clear his "stigma"!
Zhao Qingyun has always been strong, especially after his father died, he forced himself to grow up.
He wants to support the family and take care of all his relatives.
But in his heart, there are occasionally times when he is fragile - he is only a half-nine-year-old boy.
He also needs the love of his parents and the protection of his elders.
At this moment, he felt this kind of care and protection!
"Aniang!"
It is very rare for Zhao Qingyun to show his emotions, and it is very rare for Zhao Qingyun to act like a child and act coquettishly with his mother, "You are so kind to me!"
So, it’s up to me to figure out a solution to the mess my mother left behind.
My father, a barefoot doctor who had never read a book, was able to protect my mother very well, making her comfortable in food and clothing, and happy in body and mind.
As a scholar and a true genius, he should "be better than his master"!
Isn’t it just over a hundred taels of silver? I, I’ll figure it out!
No, it's not a hundred taels more, but a four-point bonus.
That’s nearly one hundred and fifty taels!
A flash of determination flashed in Zhao Qingyun's eyes, and he began to plan in his heart:
One month!
In one month, I will earn one hundred and fifty taels of silver!
Huoshui: ...Oh, poor child, you have been firmly held in Gu Qingcheng's palm, but you still don't know it!
…
While Zhao Qingyun was studying and thinking of ways to make money, three days had passed.
On this day, Zhao Qingyun came back from private school and he had a vague idea.
While borrowing books from his husband's house, he happened to see a miscellaneous note written by an unknown dynasty and unknown sage.
This sage seems to be a Taoist priest and wrote many interesting things related to Taoism.
One of them mentioned a wonderful way to make ice using a kind of ore.
Zhao Qingyun felt that if he could complete and restore this ancient recipe, he should be able to sell it for money.
"Where can I get saltpeter? There might be some in the drug store!"
Zhao Qingyun was sitting at his desk, doing two things at once.
I held a brush in my hand, dipped it in water, and then practiced calligraphy on a clean bluestone board.
The brain is running rapidly.
Sure enough, people can always unleash their potential in the face of tremendous pressure.
Although Zhao Qingyun was smart and independent in the past, he still had Zhao Guodong, his biological father, to protect him from wind and rain.
With his biological father gone, he has become the mainstay of the family. He also has a biological mother who is not very worried, so he can only push himself hard!
This force really made Zhao Qingyun come up with a solution.
Zhao Qingyun was practicing calligraphy while perfecting his plan.
"Cousin! Cousin Gu, are you at home?"
At this moment, a burst of crying and howling sounded from outside the door from far to near.
Zhao Qingyun was immediately shocked and his thoughts were completely confused.
He raised his head, frowning slightly, and a bad premonition flashed through his heart.
"Xiaoya, go and see! Who is crying outside!"
Zhao Qingyun had a cold face and ordered in a deep voice.
Xiaoya, Zhao Da's little girl, is only six years old this year.
Gu Qingcheng competed with the top players from the Zhao family's house for several rounds. The top players completely surrendered and did not dare to behave like monsters again.
In addition to the heads of each house who rotate every ten days to work as coolies for Gu Qingcheng, mother and son, the children at home also line up to come here to "help".
Today it's the turn of Zhao's children.
Xiaoya and her two brothers and sisters ran here early in the morning.
Serving tea and water, feeding chickens and pigs, these little ones are very diligent.
Ahem, apart from the advice from his parents, Gu Qingcheng is also quite generous.
She would occasionally give the children a reward of one or two copper coins, or small benefits such as a piece of snack or a piece of candy.
Not to mention, the children who came to help were provided with food and accommodation.
Three meals a day, each meal includes oil, water, and refined grains.
I kept vigil at night for my sick aunt, and I could still sleep on a brand new, fluffy bedding, and I could have an egg as a snack the next day!
It can be said that as long as the children who have been around Gu Qingcheng do not need their parents to urge them, they are extremely positive.
My aunt is so nice. She gives me money and food. It is said that if I behave well, I will get a new set of clothes at the end of the year!
If possible, they all want to stay with their aunt as their children!
The children really liked serving Gu Qingcheng and her son, so when Zhao Xiaoya heard Zhao Qingyun's instructions, she ran out obediently without saying a word.
Not long after, Zhao Xiaoya was carried back to the yard by several people.
She shouted, "What are you going to do? Don't break in!"
My aunt and my cousin are both very polite people. They knock on the door when they come in and make a noise when they go out.
Unlike the surrounding villagers, who just lift their legs and enter other people's yards.
He came and went without even saying hello.
After staying at Zhao Guodong's house for a long time, Zhao Xiaoya and a group of other little carrots also received a little influence and couldn't help but talk about the rules.
But these people outside the door are so arrogant, they are crying and shouting and trying to break in.
Zhao Xiaoya wanted to come back first to report to her cousin or aunt, but it was too late!
"Cousin! Cousin Gu! Something happened! Something big happened!"
"Go away! You little girl, what are you doing here?"
"Cousin, help! Cousin, please help us!"
There were several men and women, all young and strong.
When they entered the yard, they thought Zhao Xiaoya was in the way, so they pulled her aside.
Zhao Xiaoya was almost pushed.
Fortunately, children in the countryside have been raised since they were young, and all of them are very strong-skinned.
Zhao Xiaoya staggered two steps without falling or being frightened.
She just looked unhappy: Who are these people? They are too arrogant and don’t understand any rules!
Zhao Qingyun heard the howls of these people and felt increasingly uneasy.
He put down his pen and stood up directly.
However, he was still a step too slow. His mother, with a confused look on her face, held Zhao Erya's hand and walked out gracefully.
"You are?"
Gu Qingcheng had already guessed who the visitor was, but still pretended to be confused.
"Cousin sister-in-law! Cousin sister-in-law Gu! Please save my stupid bitch!"
Seeing the beautiful Gu Qingcheng, several people who were crying and howling were first stunned: Who is this fairy daughter who seems to have walked out of a painting? Could it be the Gu family?
Immediately afterwards, a man who looked like he was thirty years old came back to his senses first and howled at Gu Qingcheng...
