Zhou Yandong continued, "Well, you're right. To learn filial piety, it is not easy for you to raise us. The whole house is in charge of your milk, and your milk must be in a bad mood sometimes. We'll let you scold twice without losing two pieces of meat. Your milk is still good. If you look at the food and housing at home, there is a lot of food for you. Also, if your sisters are married, the dowry that your grandmother should give is not less. Your are still good for you. It's just that sometimes you don't say it well on your pacifier, and this heart is good. ”

Zhou Zixing thought in his heart, milk is good, but this is good, but it is for people, and it may not be a good word for their second room.

It's just that she thinks about her previous life and her current life, and it's really good.

"Dad, my daughter remembers. The daughter just watched her father being scolded before, so she couldn't help but complain. ”

"Your grandmother scolded Daddy right, it was Daddy who hurried the carriage and didn't notice. Moreover, those things are indeed worth some money, Sanya, don't look down on those silver when the conditions at home are good now. In the past, when my family was poor, think about it, how difficult it was to earn money at that time. This loss is not small. Although the current situation is better, Zhou Yandong still remembers the hard days in the past.

"Well, Dad, you're right. It's my daughter who thinks it's bad. ”

Zhou Zixing thought of the situation in the family of other good sisters in the village, and his face suddenly darkened, feeling that he was wrong, and he shouldn't be like that.

The father and daughter said that they were preaching back to the yard, Li was holding a box, saw the father and daughter come in, and wanted to cover the box in a hurry, but she was in a hurry, the box was not obedient at all, like a disobedient fish jumping in his hand, the box fell to the ground, and the contents of the box also jumped out. It turned out that the box contained the private money of the second room, and there were silver, silver tickets, and copper plates that jumped out, and they were in a mess.

"How did you take this box out, you too, be careful." Zhou Yandong saw it, and quickly squatted on the ground and began to pick it up.

"I, I'm ......" Li said two words and I couldn't speak.

"Mother, what's wrong with you?" Zhou Zixing found that her mother was wrong, and felt that her mother was very weak-hearted, her eyes widened, and she looked at Li with a strange look.

Zhou Yandong also thought that his daughter-in-law was afraid that his daughter-in-law would fall to the ground with silver, so he comforted himself while picking up the silver, "Don't be nervous, this fall will fall, and the silver won't run away with long legs, what are you anxious about." It's okay. ”

Soon, all the things on the ground were put into the box, and Zhou Yandong put it in the hands of the Li family, and the money in the family was usually managed by the Li family. He also had some broken silver in his own purse, and he used it less often. If you save it, you will give it to Li and let her put it away. So in fact, how much money there is really in the family, Zhou Yandong doesn't have any special ideas in his heart.

"Mother, are you hiding something from us?" The more Zhou Zixing of the elf looked at his mother, the more wrong he was, so he asked.

Li didn't expect to be seen by her daughter, she bit her lip, and finally looked at her husband and whispered, "Xianggong, my mother told me that the family situation is difficult, and several of my nephews marry daughters-in-law and want to borrow some silver from me." ”

Li's maiden family is notoriously poor, otherwise, when the Zhou family was in a bad situation, they would not have been tossed by the Zhou family, of course, she did not give birth to a son is also one of the reasons.

"What, mother, borrow silver again. Mother, I can't borrow it, how many times have my grandmother's family borrowed it, every time it's such and such an excuse, one will say that my grandmother is not in good health, I want to see a doctor, and one will say that my grandmother is weak and needs to take tonics. After a while, he said that his family had no income and no food, and then he said this and that. Mother, my grandmother's family has borrowed many, many times. Can't borrow anymore. Zhou Zixing immediately objected, she knew about the loan of money from her grandmother's family. It's just that the milk doesn't know, and the whole second room is hiding from the grandfather and grandmother. Otherwise, the milk would have made a fuss.

Li's face turned red when her daughter said this, and she knew that her daughter was right, but no matter what, it was also her mother's family.

She didn't have silver before, and there was no way to be filial to her mother, but now that she has silver, she also wants to be filial to her mother.

She looked at her husband, and when she saw that his face also showed an expression of disapproval, her heart was cold, and she gritted her teeth even more.

"Xianggong, my mother said that I don't need much silver, only twenty taels is enough." Li said in a low voice.

Zhou Yandong frowned, he has always been a filial person, to his father and mother, and to the Yue family, he is also filial piety. So he agreed to borrow money before, and secretly concealed it.

It's just that as soon as he wanted to speak, Zhou Zixing grabbed his mouth in front of him.

"Mother, twenty taels is not much, mother, think about it, how much was twenty taels in the previous Zhou family."

"That was before, it's different now." She has thousands of taels of silver in her box, and she gives her mother's twenty taels, which is really not much, and she has also calculated it, and she thinks it is not much, so she agreed.

Zhou Zixing was so angry by her mother's tone that she stomped her feet vigorously, "Mother, why is it different, twenty taels of silver can buy a lot of things." Mother, you see that I learned embroidery from my second sister, but I couldn't sell much silver. The most important thing is that my grandmother's family has borrowed money many times and has never paid it back. Also, in recent months, my grandmother's family has borrowed money so often that she can't borrow it anymore. ”

Zhou Yandong also nodded and looked at the Li family, "Daughter-in-law, this silver can't be borrowed." As Sanya said, I have borrowed a lot in the past few months. ”

Li's personality is weak, she likes to cry the most, at this time she was refuted by her husband and daughter, she cried, her heart was sad, her husband and daughter were so cold-blooded, and the family was not without silver, there were so much, what if you borrowed a little, it should be considered filial piety. She is a daughter who is married outside, and she also wants to have a higher status in her mother's family. If you can help, you must want to help.

"It's just that I agreed." She whispered as she cried. But he didn't dare to look at Zhou Yandong.

"Mother, how can you do this, you didn't even discuss it with your father, so you agreed yourself." Zhou Zixing's tone was full of complaints.

Li cried even more sadly, she didn't mean it, she thought that twenty taels was not much, and her mother said so, how could she disagree with being a daughter, so she agreed. She thought her husband wouldn't mind. I didn't borrow money before, but I agreed very happily.

Seeing that his daughter-in-law was crying sadly, and she had already agreed, Zhou Yandong thought about it for a while and agreed, but he still deliberately instructed him to do so, and when he encountered such a thing in the future, he couldn't agree first, so he had to discuss it with him. Zhou Zixing looked anxious and angry beside him. She is not stupid, she is also older, she feels that her grandmother's family is now like a money bag, she is really afraid that something will happen if this continues. I was very worried.
