Spring flowers

Chapter 296, both sides of Mrs. Kim

At the deepest part of this row are several broken grass houses. This is really a grass house. The roof has no half tile, and it's all old straw. After a winter of snow pressure, there is less sunshine here. To the naked eye, the straw also gives people a feeling of dampness.

When Chunshui came here, he put his tongue first: "How can I live? When you get old, you will have a headache and back pain, and the wind will get cold to the bone. Finally, you can't move. Chunshui is like a doctor.

There is a pair of old people living in it. As Chunshui said, they can't move on the board**, the cover is thin, and the clothes are old. In addition, there are yellow and thin women and skinny children.

Xiaochu took the food and old clothes from Chunshui, handed them over affectionately, and touched the child's head. When he came out of the room, Chunshui handed over the veil first, and his mouth was so high: "Wipe your hands. Isn't it agreed that you only give things, don't touch them, and don't touch them..."

“....... If you get sick, the prince will definitely come to you. Xiaochu took the veil, also took half of the words under the water, and said with a smile, "Look at your little pout, pouted again."

Sometimes Xiaochu also teases Chunshui: "Do you know? I used to live, and it's worse than this. Chunshui was anxious: "Red-mouthed and white-toothed, I can't say this anymore. In the past, I can't mention it."

Xiaochu continued to tease her: "Looking at the child's old clothes, Xiaoyi is similar to her when she wears these old clothes." Chunshui muttered, "Who dares to say that now, little girl, I went out to pay a visit today. She is the granddaughter of Bachelor Zou's family. They have been playing well recently.

Xiaochu smiled and had fun.

After dispersing the things in her hand, when she came out, she saw Mrs. Jin talking proudly in Tongli. She wore a colorful clothes and a new horse whip in her hand. She spoke firmly: "I pay money. Anyone who is sick and can't work will give two catties of rice noodles a day, and then give 500 yuan to see medicine."

Li Chang laughed a few times, and other ladies also followed. They were all magnificent: "How many people are here? Forget it, we'll pay for it. There is another generous comparison with Mrs. Jin: "You can't just pay for rice noodles and medicine. Give me some money to buy some broth tonic."

There are two kinds of people in the world, one is money surplus and the other is not enough money. If people with savings want to help the poor, there are too many poor people.

The reason why Xiaochu still walks with Mrs. Jin is to fall in love with her kindness from time to time. Chu Huaixian has a few words about Mrs. Jin. From the perspective of Xiaochu, there are many people who have words about Mr. Chu.

If you change anyone, you can't be the person around you who is good, kind-hearted and good to the end. Lin Xiaochu couldn't do it, so she still walked around with Mrs. Jin and was not willing to share any life.

But today, Mrs. Chu hesitated. There are many people here. One person is 500 yuan a day, two days is one taels of silver, and there are fifty people. The last three days of medicine are about ten taels of silver per person. Fifty people, that is, 500 taels, excluding or barely including rice noodles.

Xiaochu is now short of money, so he goes out to take the only 100 taels of silver. Sure enough, Mrs. Jin's good deeds are many, and these too many good deeds also make Mrs. Chu not without trouble.

Twelve people came. Mrs. Jin was single and unmancipated. She didn't pay a hundred taels of silver. The highest status of the ladies below was Mrs. Chu. When she came out, others dared not compare with her and went down. Therefore, Mrs. Jin always added affectionately in private afterwards: "Everyman knows that you don't have money. You report this money and count it to me."

How could Mrs. Chu use her? She sighed in her small original intention that the hundred taels of silver in her sleeve could not be guaranteed. Fortunately, Chu Huaixian said first, and the matter of paying money said that Mr. Chu was not generous. Besides, everyone knows that Mrs. Chu has no money and is a dowry. Xiaochu can also think about it. He threw out his words early, and his husband was not generous. No matter whether others want Chu Huaixian not to give her money or Xiaochu refuses to pay. So Mrs. Jin paid 100 taels. Although Mrs. Chu couldn't do it, she smiled and said, "You are a rich man. I can't compare with you. I'll pay 50 taels."

Fifty taels of silver are gone.

When Mrs. Jin's beautiful eyes blinked at Xiaochu and turned her face to ask others, she was actually thinking about how much money was left in Mrs. Chu's hand? Anyway, there are not many.

The rest of the wives are side by side with Xiaochu, and today there are two county princesses who have newly entered Beijing. They are not familiar with each other for the first time. They only know the reputation of Mrs. Jin's kindness, and their name is not clear. These two refused to force their heads, just side by side with Mrs. Chu. The rest of the people were reduced by 30 taels and 20 taels, and soon they made up 500 taels.

Li Changle came to pick up the silver, and Mrs. Jin sneered at him: "I, you know. Three or five days, I'm here to let me know that you have blacked the money. Humph, there is also the princess of Prince Qingli, the princess of Prince Jianrui, and the young lady of Chu Shaofu's family. None of them will spare you.

The two princesses like it, and they paid for fame. Mrs. Chu was indifferent. Although Mrs. Jin didn't just point to one of them, she always felt that she was a little famous.

When everyone came back, the ladies were delicate and went to Mrs. Jin's house to rest. The two princesses and Mrs. Chu sat side by side and talked with her.

"What are the latest clothes in Beijing?" Prince Qingli was curious about Xiaochu's new clothes: "Is this new?" Xiaochu smiled and said, "It's new." I just bought the clothes for a few days and made them. It's still new.

Mrs. Jin came over happily, and the sleeves of her robe unfolded: "Look at my clothes, the same fabric as Mrs. Chu." Everyone is envious and has made an appointment to go shopping for clothes and jewelry tomorrow, which is better than March 3rd.

Mrs. Chu is no longer accompanied. She only made an appointment to see them on March 3rd. After drinking tea, she went back first. Mrs. Jin sent her out, half leaned into the car, stuffed her hand into Xiaochu's sleeve, and smiled like Xiaochu's sister: "You're welcome. You don't have any money. I'll pay for this."

Of course, Xiaochu didn't want to. He pushed it with her and said with a smile, "I have it. If not, will it come out?" Mrs. Jin told Yin Yin again: "Next time you come, please come back three times," she spit out her tongue like a girl: "It makes me think about it all the time."

When the carriage moved, Xiaochu was almost depressed. Mrs. Jin is good here, but her hands are bigger. By the way, the people she knows are all big. Several times a month, it takes two or two hundred taels of silver to use.

Seeing the poor every month, it takes dozens of taels to spend money to buy a reputation; and then what can be said when everyone gathers together, a bunch of women say that clothes are better than jewelry, buy new clothes and new jewelry, and then come together to do it. Mrs. Chu stroked her forehead, and a man walked around, which also cost money.

In modern times, doesn't it cost money to make friends? Especially for the wives who make friends with these high-ranking officials, it costs more. Dress up yourself and go to some teahouses with them, which is free of charge.

If you still have business, Xiaochu will feel pain when he thinks like this. More than 3,000 taels of silver is not a small amount.

Mrs. Jin sent Xiaochu away and walked briskly when she came back with a silver ticket. He radiated and went around with the wives, and then sent them all away like sisters.

Walking through the front door, the seven-treasure car, the green car, and the Bixiang car are all rich and noble. A green cloth head came from the back door, wearing an old dress to cover the woman inside. She lowered her head and knocked on the door, and the person at the door said timidly, "Please see Mrs. Jin." As soon as the doorman saw her, he was immediately unhappy: "Our wife is not free." Reach out and close the door.

The woman burst into tears, regardless of the ugly, blocked the door with her timid body and pleaded, "Please inform my mother. I am not far from death." Then the doorman let her in and took her back yard path in, so that she didn't have a good voice when she waited under the flower hall: "I'm sleeping well. You wake me up and wait."

"Thank you for your hard work," the woman gave her a skillful etiquette. The gatekeeper went up to the hall and muttered, "Madam, we are not as decent as when we don't have money."

After half an hour, Jinfu came out. She smiled and had a lot of posture. The woman who came in shed tears and drooped her head, which was extremely pitiful. The gorgeous Mrs. Jin smiled and said, "Mrs. Fang Er, I can hardly recognize your clothes." Mrs. Fang Er was ashamed and saluted Mrs. Jin like a candle and burst into tears: "I'm here to ask you to give me a few more days. I will definitely pay back the money I owe you, but can you please give me a few more days?"

"How many days is the grace period?" Mrs. Jin smiled, and Mrs. Fang Er seemed to have hope and said carefully, "Can ten days make it?" Mrs. Jin smiled at her and said, "You treat me as a fool. Ten days later, your old man will go to Beijing to inspect. He has left. Who can I ask for silver?"

If Mrs. Fang was struck by lightning, her face twitched a few times and said in a low voice, "My father-in-law is at home. If you sue me to him, he will only let me kill myself, and I can't get your money back." The desperate young lady Fang begged bitterly, "If you keep my life, I can still pay you back the money."

"Is your life still valuable to you?" Mrs. Jin smiled lightly and spoke lightly. In despair, Mrs. Fang said everything: "You have a few days of grace, and my husband and wife are still loving each other, and he will slowly help me pay back this money; I still have two sons under my knees, both of whom are fighting. When they are big, the money will not be less. If you force me to a dead end, you will have a penny."

Mrs Jin smiled arrogantly: "Your father-in-law has always had a clear reputation, and he has always said that he is not a woman's way for people like me. Don't you pay back the money? Okay," Mrs. Jin slowly changed her face, and her eyes hung up, and hissed softly like a poisonous snake: "I won't give him your IOU. I will send it to the Ministry of the Ministry of Public Affairs to sue you for not paying back your money and your family for gambling. Second young lady, in the dowry you lost, the house is gambling every day.

Young Lady Fang threw himself on the ground: "Please, please, this silver is lent to me every day. When you borrow it, you are kind. Don't worry, you and I are good sisters. You don't wait to ask for it."

"Yes, you and my good sister," Mrs. Jin said casually, "Your husband works in the military department. Good sister, it's not easy to ask for money. Do as I said. There is an official document. Tell me the above content, and I can grace you for half a year."

This idea was said the last time Mrs. Jin changed her face for silver, and she was even more gentle at this time: "Go ahead, do as I say. It not only makes you owe, but also gives you money to gamble. When you are not happy at home, you will be happy to gamble.

When Mrs. Fang Er left through the back door, her eyes were dull and she took a stiff step. The street is sunny, and it is cold everywhere in the eyes of Mrs. Fang Er.

There are many pedestrians on this long street, but there is no place for Mrs. Fang Er to go.
