Mind reading, taking the rental house through the whole village crying

Chapter 375 Old Man Pan

"Oh, apologize? What kind of apology? My child is busy. We can visit each other anytime. There's no rush. How did you do in the exam this time you came back? Did you make the list?" Yin Suxin asked nervously.

If the future son-in-law passes the test, he will be a tongsheng.

I am considered marrying above my station.

"Alas, he didn't pass. This kid lacks luck. He worked hard on weekdays and passed the county exam. He thought he had a sure win, but he failed the prefectural exam. When he came back, his face was not good. We didn't dare to mention it, so we didn't ask any more questions."

Zhu Yingqiu sighed.

Her eyes flashed.

I want to see how Yin Suxin reacts.

If there was any trace of dislike, she would not have let her son come to see her.

Unexpectedly, the two looked into each other's eyes.

Zhu Yingqiu actually felt relieved when she saw Yin Suxin.

She was stunned for a moment.

"Good sister, to be honest with you, it's okay if I didn't win the lottery. If I did, I would be embarrassed to marry my daughter to your family. I don't want my daughter Yu'er to marry above her station. I just want her to live a stable life." She didn't say the second half of the sentence.

Being a mother is so conflicted.

While she is looking forward to her future son-in-law graduating from high school, she is also afraid that even if he passes, her daughter will not be good enough for him.

It would be best if my daughter could marry him and his son-in-law was also a successful one.

"Look at you, are you overthinking? You don't know me well. Let alone becoming a student, even if my Tongmu passes the imperial examination, if he dares to bully Yu'er, I will give him a slap!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Wan Yu came over from the backyard carrying a tray of rouge boxes.

"Aunt~" Seeing Zhu Yingqiu coming.

She called for help quickly, her voice as clear as an oriole.

It sounds particularly nice.

"Yu'er, I just mentioned you to your mother and you came out. Come, help me pick out which rouge and lip balm looks good. I know you have good taste."

Zhu Yingqiu quickly changed the subject.

She came here, on the one hand, to apologize to Yin Suxin in person, and on the other hand, to buy rouge.

"Auntie, you look young, and anything you put on looks good. Daddy just bought a new batch of rouge. What do you think of this?"

Wanyu took a piece of orange-toned rouge from the plate.

He helped Zhu Yingqiu apply the ointment and then placed the small bronze mirror in front of her.

"Yeah, it's good. It looks really fair. My skin gets tanned a lot in the summer. Wanyu picked a good one. Pick out a lip balm for Auntie, I'll buy it as well."

Zhu Yingqiu nodded with satisfaction.

Taking the rouge and lip balm chosen by her future daughter-in-law, she put down two silver coins, turned around and left.

As a result, he was stopped before he even left the shop.

"What are you doing? It's unreasonable for me to ask you to pay for my shop. Take the money back and consider it as a gift to you."

After Yin Suxin finished speaking, she stuffed the silver into Zhu Yingqiu's hand.

"If you don't accept it, I won't come again. It seems like I'm here to take advantage of you. If you have money, you should make it for your family, right? Take it, hurry up, I'm leaving."

The two of them pushed and refused.

Yin Suxin's hands are not as strong as Zhu Yingqiu's, who has been kneading dough for years.

Zhu Yingqiu broke free and ran away, looking very panicked.

If you don’t know, you might think the rouge in her hand was stolen.

"Look at how kind your Aunt Zhu is. She never takes advantage of others. So when she mentioned it, I agreed. When her second son is free, you two can meet. You are not young anymore.

It's almost autumn now. If you don't settle down, you will be sixteen next year. Although I don't want you to get married, I can't put it off any longer. If you're still not married when you're eighteen, the matchmaker will introduce you to a widower."

Yin Suxin put the silver in the drawer.

Holding her daughter's hand, she spoke earnestly.

"Mother, I know you can't bear to leave me, so you found such a good marriage for me. Aunt is a good person and lives nearby. If you miss me in the future, I will come back to see you often."

Wan Yu's eyes were also filled with tears.

"Bah, bah, bah, don't talk nonsense. How can you come back so often? If you do this, even if your mother-in-law has a good temper, she will be angry. Others will also say that I didn't teach my daughter well. Just come back once during the holidays.

As long as you live well, even if I can't see you, I will feel at ease when I hear your mother-in-law talk about you. I gave birth to you and your brother. After you get married, I will have less worries in the future. When your brother passes the imperial examination and becomes a scholar, I will have no regrets in my life."

The mother and daughter were chatting in private in the shop.

At that time, Zhu Yingqiu had already returned to Jiang's snack shop.

Jiang Fubao, who was tired of playing the flute, went shopping with Xue Huan and a twenty-year-old maid.

After buying the necessary medicinal materials and coming out of the pharmacy.

The three of them went to wander around Wanlu Street again.

Jiang Fubao wants to eat beef.

This thing is hard to come by, and only the cow that has died of old age or illness can be slaughtered.

Once available, they will be bought quickly.

She wanted to see if she could meet him today.

I have a bunch of small potatoes at home. If I use them to stew beef brisket with potatoes, it will be so delicious that you will cry.

"Miss, it's too crowded here, why don't we go to another street?" The maid Xin'er was carrying a bamboo basket full of various medicinal herbs. She wiped the sweat off her face with the back of her hand and advised Jiang Fubao.

"It's okay, I'll just see if I can find any beef, if not we'll go back."

Jiang Fubao knew that the maid was worried that she would be kidnapped.

But once the gluttony is aroused.

Then it can't be suppressed anymore.

Jiang Fubao's eyes scanned both sides of the road.

After walking through several alleys, I still couldn't find any beef.

She turned around in disappointment and prepared to go back.

But suddenly I saw a familiar face.

Three meters away on the left, there was a man and a woman who looked similar, probably brother and sister. They were kneeling on the ground without raising their heads.

Behind the two men, an old man was lying flat on straw.

If the old man's abdomen hadn't been rising and falling slowly, Jiang Fubao would have thought he was dead.

I should have just taken a look and then left.

But Jiang Fubao recognized at a glance that this old man was the one who came to his shop to buy mung bean soup and was bullied by the shopkeeper Liu Yanzhi.

So Jiang Fubao, with two maids, one big and one small, stood in front of the brother and sister.

"What are you kneeling here for?"

Jiang Fubao's voice reached the ears of the brother and sister.

The two of them slowly raised their heads, as if they had been crying for a long time, and their eyes were swollen like walnuts.

"My grandpa is sick, but we have spent all our money and have no money left to treat him. My brother and I are willing to sell ourselves to pay for his treatment."

Seeing that Jiang Fubao is still young.

The two had no expectations and simply explained.

"Selling his body? How much? What disease does he have?" Jiang Fubao asked three questions in a row.

"The clinic said that grandpa has tuberculosis, and the two of us want to sell it for five taels of silver..." Pan Erya felt a little embarrassed.

She and her brother are not young anymore.

If it is sold to a trafficker, it will only be sold for 4 taels, even if it is sold to a black-hearted person.

It is also possible to sell it for three and a half taels.
