In this case, there was no room for Chu Congrong to be polite. She asked Mrs. Ye to call all the adults together. Even Mr. Wu put down what he was doing and gathered around the main room.

"My mother said that my third uncle is getting older and it's time to start a family. My mother happens to be away from my grandma. She wants to help her and let her and her future third aunt fulfill her filial piety on her behalf."

"But before you talk ugly, second aunt, please go and invite the girl from the Li family to come over for a meal and let my mother have a look. If she is a sarcastic one, we can't help, and we can't take it! If the third uncle gets married, in the future,

I need to make money and return it to my mother as soon as possible, because my fourth uncle and third brother are also waiting for the money to get married."

"Finally, third uncle, don't worry about not being able to repay the money. As long as you and your third aunt work hard in the future, you will definitely be able to pay it back! That's all my mother wants to say. What do you think?"

The family never expected that their niece could speak so crisply and eloquently at such a young age. They looked at Ye with suspicion, and Ye nodded heavily.

Naturally, Ye Erzhuang and his wife had no objection, and Mrs. Wu was even more happy. The rest was Ye Sanjin's attitude. Seeing that he remained silent for a long time, Chu Congrong said calmly: "Third uncle, if you don't want to get married, no one will

I force you. If you want to get married, you have to agree to two conditions. One is to be filial to grandma, and the other is to work hard to pay off debts. There will be no shop like this after passing this village, but you have to think about it."

"I will definitely be filial to my mother, but...I'm afraid that I won't be able to repay my debt." Ye Sanjin said anxiously, his face reddening.

Chu Congrong was too lazy to say too much, but she had to rush back to make Simi Lu.

"Second aunt, if you recognize the girl from the Li family, please go and invite her over for a meal right away. My mother and I are in the kitchen, so go and come back quickly."

After hearing what Chu Congrong said, Xiao Wu couldn't help but drop the things in her hands and ran out.

"Second uncle, ask your eldest cousin to send a chicken and a piece of cloth to my uncle. Don't mention having dinner together. Today is just a blind date dinner for third uncle, without them having to come forward."

As soon as Ye Erzhuang heard this, he asked Ye Xiaodong to take the things over.

As soon as Ye Xiaodong went out, Chu Congrong took out dozens of pennies and asked Ye Erzhuang to add some pork belly and buy a fish, saying that he had to have more money to survive. Ye Erzhuang was embarrassed to ask for his niece's money, but he was penniless.

, when he was in trouble, Mr. Ye still told him to go quickly, and then he took him and ran out.

Chu Congrong made the arrangements and went into the kitchen with Mrs. Ye. She whispered: "Mom, don't touch the money for now. Just give grandma a hundred yuan for self-defense, and leave the rest to my third uncle."

Mrs. Ye agreed upon hearing this, and her daughter was very considerate.

"My dear daughter, what would Mom do without you? You can even cook a dish that tastes better than Mom's. Mom only has to light a fire for you, so you suffer a lot."

"No matter how capable I am, I am still your daughter. Without you, I wouldn't be here. Besides, if it weren't for you and Xiaoliu and Xiaoqi, I would be a pile of bones. Let's talk about the matter slowly when we go back. Today we are helping Third Uncle take care of things.

close."

Chu Congrong considers herself to be a very rational person and does not want to be too emotional. Unfortunately, Ye is always emotional and launches an emotional offensive at every turn.

Soon, Mrs. Wu brought a girl back. At first glance, she could tell that she was a simple girl. She had a wooden hairpin on her head and wore old floral homespun cloth. Although her body was thin, her hands were rough. She was of medium height, with regular features and complexion.

The darker color may be due to frequent labor.

She wanted to go into the kitchen to help, but Mrs. Ye looked a little embarrassed. When Mrs. Wu saw this, she wanted to take her to the main room, but Chu Congrong suddenly stopped them and told her second aunt and mother to go talk to her grandma, leaving Li Chunhua to help her.

busy.

"My name is Chu Congrong, you can call me Wuya. Should I call you sister or aunt?" Chu Congrong chatted while cooking, deliberately raising the topic in a relaxed manner.

Li Chunhua blushed and said softly: "You can call me whatever you want."

"Oh, let's call you aunt. It's not appropriate for you to be like this. This is the first time I've met my third uncle, but he probably isn't a person with strong opinions. If you have a chance to become my aunt, you must bravely seize the opportunity to start a family.

.”

Li Chunhua had never seen this posture before, and she murmured shyly.

"My third uncle is poor, but he wants to marry you, which means he likes you very much. He asked my mother to borrow money, and my family is also poor, but my mother is willing to lend you the money for my uncle and my brother's wedding, and you get married.

Let’s make more money together and give it back to us. Do you have any opinions?”

"No objection... I'm just afraid that I can't afford it." Li Chunhua's voice became smaller and smaller. How could a girl talk about her marriage like this? However, her worries were the same as those of her third uncle. After all, he is a kind person. Who cares if you are more selfish?

Three-seven-twenty-one, borrow it later.

"Don't worry about this. I see that you have many barren hills and open spaces along the way. You can plant all of them with cassava and sell them to me in the future. I will take as much as you want. You can also plant soybeans and I will do the same. As long as you are willing to do it,

Not only will you pay off your debt quickly, but you will also be able to live a good life!"

"I listen to you." Li Chunhua's voice became louder when talking about farm work.

"Last and most important point, you must be filial to my grandma and respect your second uncle and second aunt. If you can do this, my third uncle will come back with us to get the money, so that you can get married at any time!"

Li Chunhua happily agreed. In her opinion, it is a natural thing to be filial to the elderly. Ye Sanjin was a little poor, so as long as the two of them were willing to work hard, otherwise she would have to marry a widower or something like that as an old girl.

"That's good. Remember what I just told you. Don't mention it to anyone, including your third uncle!" Chu Congrong warned emphatically. If people knew that she wanted to plant cassava on a large scale, there would be no trouble.

After the serious matters were settled, Chu Congrong changed the topic to cooking. The conversation became much more relaxed, and Miss Li was no longer so restrained, and soon a table of dishes was ready.

When the table was opened, Mr. Wu sat at the head seat. Li Chunhua could sit at the host and guest seat, but she had to let Mr. Ye sit down if she wanted to. She even wanted to sit down until Chu Congrong sat down. Chu Congrong said that she didn’t care about her seniority.

She should be behind her in terms of both status and age, so she sat down shyly.

Li Chunhua and Ye Erzhuang's family were familiar with each other before, and Mrs. Wu was very satisfied with it. In addition, she knew that her third son had been interested in her for a long time, and she liked her very much. Mr. Ye had a gentle temper and had no intention of making things difficult, while Chu Congrong was very kind.

She played the role of a good girl knowingly, and everyone was happy after the meal. They were very disappointed to marry Li Chunhua tomorrow.

Seeing everyone like this, Li Chunhua thought that if she could marry into this family, she would never be wronged, and she was secretly happy in her heart. She only suffered because the eldest brother in the family would not let go of the four taels of silver.

"My brother said, as long as I have money, I can go out whenever I want."

When she finally left, she said something as quiet as a mosquito.

Sanjin was overjoyed when he heard this, and waited for a while to go out with his eldest sister, so that he could rush back to marry the beautiful woman tomorrow.

In the afternoon, Ms. Ye chatted with her mother, Ms. Wu, for a while, thinking about rushing back to make dinner, and then said goodbye reluctantly. Along the way, Chu Congrong and the twins joked about Ye Sanjin from time to time. The journey seemed faster, and they soon returned home.

Long Dog House Village.

Sanlang also came back from the town. He greeted his uncle and knew that he would stay overnight, so he took him into the room to clean up the place where he would sleep at night. Ye Sanjin saw that the things his eldest sister brought back were very rich, and he also gave him a lot of money.

Damn it, I never thought that their family lived in such a poor condition and didn't even have a bed.

He couldn't help but feel anxious in his heart. With such conditions as the eldest sister, how many taels of silver can he get to support himself?

"Damn it! You heartless person, you have lost all your money in a short time! Are you worthy of me? Are you worthy of your daughter? Just give the money to the whole family! I can't live anymore...

…”

Ye's angry voice came from the room, and everyone didn't know what was happening. They ran out at a loss, only to see Ye sitting on the ground covering her face and crying bitterly!

"My mother, the three taels of silver that we got from the separation of the family were given away to them by this heartless thing, and they even took one tael of silver from my daughter! Fortunately, my daughter gave you ginseng chicken soup every day, and I should have kept you long ago.

Waiting to die on the ground! If you die earlier, we will be more relaxed. How will our family survive in the future..."

Mrs. Ye sat on the ground crying and cursing, very embarrassed.

The matter was very clear. It was probably the people from the compound who came over, and Chu Youxian gave out four taels of the five taels of silver that Ye asked him to keep.

Ye Sanjin's face turned dark when he heard this. He murmured to Mr. Ye to take care of himself, and then wanted to rush back to Jiudaowan overnight. It was obvious that he was disappointed and lost.

Chu Congrong asked the twins to drag him into the room, then helped Ye and comforted her, saying that she wanted her to cook well and greet her third uncle, and that she would go to the compound soon and promise to get the money back. Ye wanted to kiss her

My younger brother was present and it was not appropriate to expose the family scandal, so I had no choice but to listen to my daughter's words and go into the kitchen with tears in my eyes to get busy.

Chu Congrong then went to find Ye Sanjin, took out five taels of silver and handed it to him, saying, "Third uncle, my mother promised to lend you the four taels. I'll give you an extra tael so you can have a drink or something."

Ye Sanjin was very surprised. Hearing what his eldest sister said, his brother-in-law had clearly given the money to his in-laws, so how could he still have so much money for himself? Originally he only said four taels, but now there is one more tael!

"Wuya, four taels is enough. We should have a few hundred coins at home. We just plan to invite a few good relatives and friends to have a meal. Sister just... you also need money."

Ye Sanjin felt ashamed of his disappointment just now. He didn't expect that his eldest sister's family was so kind to him!

"It's too late to come back now and it's not safe. Just stay here tonight. You don't need to tell anyone about the money yet!" After Chu Congrong explained, he asked the twins to go with him.

The twins followed without saying a word. Halfway through, Chu Congrong suddenly asked them: "Do you think what dad is doing is right?"

The two brothers said in unison that it was wrong. Their family was already very poor, and the people in the compound had been so cruel to their family. How could their father return their money?

"They won't even give me money to buy medicine for my father. They still rely on you, sister, to earn money to buy ginseng. Now they are robbing us of our money!"

"Yes! They are well fed and clothed, but we don't even have new clothes, and they are still sleeping on the floor. Why is dad so confused!"

…

"We're going to get our money back right now! I just want you to remember that whoever treats us well will be treated well to him. We must not help some white-eyed wolves!"

Unexpectedly, the cheap old man knew how to make buns to this extent, and all his hard work and ginseng were wasted. Chu Congrong thought that he must tell this bun father the story of Mr. Dong Guo and the wolf, or the farmer and the snake.

"Sister, the money is in the hands of the little grandma, can we get it back?" Although the twins have infinite trust in their sister, the shadow left by Mrs. Du on their young hearts is too great.
