Chapter 674: Fanwai Qujia Siblings (3)
Zhao Di squeezed the money and went out the door with a tense face. It was the first time she took so much money, and she couldn’t help but look a little nervous. She was afraid that she would lose the money, so she walked quickly to the uncle’s house.
Qu Weizhen just went out. She didn’t change her clothes, she was still wearing her own clothes. Although Qu’s mother was a little dissatisfied when she saw her, she was very unfamiliar with Pandi now, and a feeling arose in her heart. A feeling of apprehension.
Laidi secretly peeked at Qu Weizhen while washing vegetables with her belt. Qu Weizhen noticed her gaze and turned back and smiled at her.
Laidi bowed her head in shame, not daring to look more.
When Zhao Di brought the pork back, the three sisters just cleaned the pot and vegetables and picked them.
When Mother Qu saw Zhao Di come back with so much meat, her eyes widened in surprise.
Zhao Di took the meat directly into the kitchen and handed it to Qu Weizhen, and whispered, “There’s only so much.”
Qu Weizhen glanced at it and said with a smile, “Enough is enough.”
Mother Qu left her son and rushed into the kitchen, asking sharply and angrily, “Who told you to buy meat? How much does it cost, how can the family have the money to pay the bill?”
Qu Weizhen turned around and smiled and said, “Don’t worry, mother, the bill has been paid.”
Mother Qu’s expression froze, and she asked, “Where did the money come from?”
“I made some money from copying books, and it was easy to go home. I had to be filial to my parents, so I asked the eldest sister to use the money to buy meat. I should have bought it from outside, but I was in a hurry. free to buy…”
“If you don’t have time to buy, you won’t give me the money, you’ll be extravagant if you only have so little money,” Qu Mu was furious, “Can you die if you eat less meat?”
“I thought it wouldn’t be easy for the **** to bring us back, so I can’t be rude, so…” Qu Weizhen lowered her head slightly and said, “I can’t let the guests who come from afar eat only green vegetables. And my younger brother also pointed them to **** us back to Beijing.”
Mother Qu has always been shrewd and understands Qu Weizhen’s subtext. If she is not good to the **** now, she may not be attentive to her son when they guard the **** in the new year, and it is her little treasure who will suffer in the end.
Mother Qu gritted her teeth, stepped forward and squeezed Qu Weizhen away and said, “Don’t cut so much, just cut in half.”
said it was half, but he only cut out meat as big as a palm and handed it to Zhao Di, and said with a stern face: “Okay, I will freeze the rest and eat it during the Chinese New Year.”
In weather like this, just leave meat outside overnight and it will freeze into ice cubes.
Qu Weizhen was a little speechless, this time she didn’t say anything anymore, but directly took the knife from Mother Qu’s hand, pulled the meat over and started to cut, she turned her head while cutting and smiled at Mother Qu, “Don’t worry, mother, it’s the New Year’s Eve. There will be meat.”
Mother Qu’s heart trembled, she could see the chill in her eyes, and she didn’t dare to interfere with the icy blade of the kitchen knife.
Qu Weizhen cooked all the meat like this, and after entertaining the guards, he sent them away.
When she went back, Mother Qu was unpacking their bags in the room, and Qu Jingxi stopped her with red ears, “Mother, you’ve messed up Third Sister’s bag, she won’t be able to find something in a while.”
“What does it mean to be hard to find things? I’ll see what you brought back. Didn’t you say you earned money outside? Where’s the money?”
Qu Weizhen sneered in her heart, but her face was full of smiles. She stepped forward to pull the bag and said, “Mother, the money is here.”
After saying that, he took out a folded piece of clothing, took out a small bag from it, opened it to show her, and inside it was a string of copper coins.
One string has 100 characters, and there are about seven or eight strings in this small bag.
Mother Qu’s eyes lit up, she stepped forward and drew the bag into her arms to count, Qu Weizhen said softly, “These are all copies I saved for the bookstore in my spare time, because I study for a short time, so I get less wages. , it may be more in two years. Mother, don’t dislike it.”
“I don’t dislike it, I don’t dislike it,” Qu Mu smiled, looking at her with a hint of satisfaction, “As long as you don’t forget your roots and remember your home.”
Qu Weizhen smiled and continued to unpack her bag and said, “Because I knew I was going home for the Chinese New Year, I also bought some cloth to make new clothes for my parents, mother, try it first to see if it fits, and then change it if it doesn’t fit. When you do it, you do it big, and it’s easy to change.”
Mother Qu looked at the cotton-padded clothes she took out, and she was happy, but she said, “What a good clothes, what a waste of money.”
“My father and mother haven’t added any clothes for a long time. This is because my daughter honors you. Why is it a waste of money?” Qu Weizhen tucked the clothes into her arms and said with a smile, “Go and try.”
The mother of music didn’t leave with her clothes in her arms. She looked at the still bulging bag and asked, “That bag is full of clothes? You can bring it to me together, or else it would be troublesome to run back and forth.”
Qu Weizhen didn’t seem to hear what she said, and continued to take out the clothes from the bag, took out a set of folded cotton-padded clothes and pants, and said, “This is for Dad, let him try it on when the old man comes back from the city. try.”
After saying that, I put it into Mother Qu’s arms, and then I took out the next set. After unfolding it, I pulled Zhao Di to gesture on her body, and said with a smile, “This is for the eldest sister. When I did it, I guessed that the eldest sister was of this size. , so it was not released, and now it seems that my prediction is accurate.”
Mother Qu smiled, dropped the clothes in her arms and pulled Zhao Di’s new clothes, and made a gesture on herself. Seeing that it was really small, she looked for it, and seeing that there was really no collection of cloth, her face couldn’t help but look a little ugly.
He said angrily: “What kind of clothes do you do well, the family is so poor that you can’t open the pot, it is better to buy food if you have this money. And the clothes are made too carelessly, you see who makes clothes and doesn’t accept cloth? No? Cloth clothes can’t be worn for a year, aren’t you wasting money?”
Qu Weizhen said a little aggrieved: “I also want to collect the cloth, but when I was a mother’s clothes, I was not sure about your body shape, so I collected more cloth, and the cloth left is less, the elder sister and theirs will be collected again. The cloth is not enough.”
Qu Weizhen pulled back the clothes and stuffed them into Zhao Di: “Eldest sister, try it out and see if it fits. If it doesn’t fit, you can only wear it for the second sister.”
Zhao Di hurriedly took over the clothes, and looked at Mother Qu with some trepidation.
Mother Qu’s face was blue and black, but she couldn’t really **** the clothes. It would be better if they were bigger or put away the cloth. She could wear them even if they were released. .
And the clothes have been made and the money has been spent, it is useless for her to say no now. It’s not that Mother Qu couldn’t figure this out, but she was always stuck in her heart and couldn’t get out.
In addition to Zhaodi, Laidi and Daidi also each have a set of cotton-padded clothes, and all of them are not collected. The three sisters are holding brand-new clothes. Although they all bowed their heads, joy and happiness flashed in their eyes.
At this moment, they had a feeling of hope that Di came back.
Qu Jingxi has been watching from the sidelines, with a complicated expression on his face, he looked at his sisters apologetically, stretched out his hand and pulled his mother out.
Mother Qu carried her clothes back to her room, and complained to Qu Jingxi: “Your third sister spends too much money, is she the same in the capital?”
“Mother, Sanjie is already thrifty enough. As far as I know, no one is more thrifty than Sanjie.”
“This is also called frugality, making so many sets of clothes…”
“It’s New Year’s Eve, isn’t it normal to make new clothes?” Qu Jingxi lowered her voice and said, “And we haven’t been home for a long time, so it’s not right to make a set of clothes for your father, you and your sisters. ?”
“Then just make a set for your father and me. Your eldest sister and the others are about to get married. What are you going to do with the water splashed by the married daughter…”
Qu Jingxi frowned and said disapprovingly, “Even if my sisters get married, they will still be my sisters. Could it be that they won’t recognize me as a younger brother or my parents after they get married?”
Music opened his mouth, but was speechless.
And Qu Weizhen in the side room took out a lot of things from the bag for the sisters, handkerchiefs, head flowers, sewing kits, and a wooden comb with a particularly beautiful carver.
All are one per person.
The girls loved the little things and put their new clothes aside. Zhao Di took the wooden comb in her hand and looked at it, pursing her lips and smiling happily.
Laidi and Daidi are holding flowers to tie each other’s hair.
Qu Weizhen smiled slightly, bent down and reached into the belly of the kang to touch, and found a small bag.
Zhao Di and the others were dumbfounded, wondering when she threw this thing into the kang belly, and Qu Mu didn’t even doubt it just now.
Qu Weizhen patted off the bags, and when she saw their expressions, she whispered: “I hid this secretly, mother doesn’t know, eldest sister, second sister, fourth sister, you can’t tell mother.”
The three sisters nodded dazedly.
It’s too easy for Qu Weizhen to hide things. Just now, Mother Qu was only concerned with pulling Qu Jingxi. She brought all the burdens back by herself. This small burden was placed in the big one, and she threw it away as soon as she entered the house. Kang belly went.
The purpose of is to escape the search of the song mother.
She opened the bag, and there were two boxes inside. She took out the larger one and opened it, and the eyes of the three sisters Zhaodi were immediately straight.
It is full of silver hairpins and silver bracelets. Zhao Di and the others have seen them on the bodies of some elders. They only wear them to show off when they are festive.
Qu Weizhen pulled the three of them to his side and whispered, “I beat you all, and you can use it as a dowry when you get married.”
Laidi’s eyes were shining, but Zhaodi couldn’t help but whispered, “Father and mother won’t agree.”
“So we don’t tell them.” Qu Weizhen divided the things into three parts and pushed them to them: “Look if you like it, I’ll put it away for you later, hide it later, and wear it after you get married.”
The three sisters had never done such a thing to hide their parents, and they were entangled for a while, but when they saw the silver hairpin and silver bracelet on the kang, their hearts became hot again.
There is no girl who doesn’t love jewelry.
The three sisters finally nodded and agreed to Qu Weizhen. The four sisters regained a major secret, and the relationship became a lot closer.
Qu Weizhen tapped on a stone beside the kang in front of them, then pulled out the stone and stuffed the box in, it was just right.
The three sisters were stunned. They had lived in this house for so many years and never knew there was a hole here.
