When they arrived at Sun's parents' house, they were already so hot that they were sweating profusely. Sun's mother-in-law, Mrs. Sun, fanned them with a cattail fan and asked them why they were here.

Before Sun could speak, Xu, Sun's sister-in-law who lives in the West House, came over, waving a cattail leaf fan, and said in a weird voice, "What else could I do here? I must be here to borrow money!"

The smile on Mrs. Sun's face faltered, and she hurriedly asked Mrs. Sun, "What's wrong? What difficulties have you encountered again?"

Mrs. Xu once again interrupted Mrs. Sun, "If you want to borrow money, I advise you not to talk too much. Since my brother-in-law became lame, we have borrowed money from you several times, again and again, not again and again.

If you want to borrow money, you must first pay back what you borrowed before!"

Seeing that Mrs. Xu kept interrupting her, Mrs. Sun was also angry. "It's true that I owe you money, and I'm here to pay you back today, but if you have this attitude, I won't pay you back!"

"

"Yo, yo..." Mrs. Xu shook her cattail leaf fan and said loudly, "It's the uncle who owes money and the grandson who wants money. I didn't think so before, but today I have learned a lot!"

Mrs. Sun said angrily, "When your brother-in-law was a government servant, I subsidized you every month. How could you not calculate how much you owed me? Tell me, did I subsidize you more, or did I owe you more?"

many?"

"A good man doesn't talk about his bravery in the past. My brother-in-law's time as a government servant has passed. Why do you still talk about that?

I admit that you did help our family at that time, but Brother Feng is your biological brother, who are you helping if you don't help him?

Let me tell you, my brother-in-law earned two taels of silver a month at that time. If you were smarter and paid one tael to your parents' family every month, your life wouldn't be so difficult now!"

Mrs. Sun was just about to say a few words to Mrs. Xu, but her hand was held by her. Mrs. Sun shook her head at her daughter and told her not to argue with Mrs. Xu.

Mrs. Sun took out the two taels and five cents of silver that she had prepared in advance, gave Mrs. Sun one tael and five cents, and put the other one tael and Mrs. Xu on the edge of the Kang.

When Mrs. Xu saw that Mrs. Sun was really here to repay the money, she thought that Mrs. Sun had some way of getting rich. She immediately put a smile on her face and called Mrs. Sun "eldest sister".

"Sister, are you getting rich? Could it be that my brother-in-law has gone back to work as a government servant?"

Ms. Sun turned her face away and did not look at Ms. Xu, "After you take the money, leave as soon as possible. I want to talk to my mother!"

Mrs. Xu grabbed a tael of silver and stared at the two halves in front of Mrs. Sun. After hesitating for a moment, she still resisted and did not dare to reach out to take it.

As long as her sister gets rich, she will not have to worry about having money in the future.

Seeing that Mrs. Xu had left, Mrs. Sun took out another one tael of silver and put it in her mother's hand, "Mom, when I leave, Mrs. Xu will definitely come to you and ask for the two and a half cents of silver. I know you

I must give it to her, but you must keep some flowers in your hand. This tael of silver is my tribute to you. You hide it secretly and don't let Mrs. Xu see it!"

Mrs. Sun lost her husband at an early age and finally raised a son and a daughter. However, her family was so tired that she couldn't do heavy work on weekdays.

Mrs. Sun thought that she had lost her labor force too early, and she felt guilty towards Sun Fengshou and the Xu family, so she handed over the housekeeping rights to the Xu family early. The last time the Sun family borrowed one or two and a half silver from her, it was actually Sun.

Shi secretly gave it to her before.

Old Mrs. Sun pushed the money back, "Mom, I don't want it. Your man's leg is lame. The money is in the back. Has there been any movement in your stomach recently?"

Sun shook her head, "No, but Changhe's legs have improved recently. He walks much more smoothly than before."

Mrs. Sun said earnestly, "You should also worry about your child. Now that you have money, you should go to the city to find a good medicine shop and take a good look at it."

Mrs. Sun nodded, "I know, I'll go there in a while!"

Mrs. Sun took her mother's hand and pushed the silver back, "Mom, you keep it for yourself. What did you do with the harvest?"

Old Mrs. Sun sighed and said, "What else can I do? I went fishing again. By the way, there are still a few fish in the tank outside. When you leave later, don't forget to take a few back."

Mrs. Sun shook her head, "No, I won't take it. Let's keep it for Feng Sheng to sell it for money. Where is the little tiger?"

"What can a naughty boy do? I don't know where he's going to go wild."

Sun said, "I haven't seen him for a long time, and I miss him so much!"

Ms. Sun herself has no children, so she has long regarded her younger brother’s nephew Xiao Huzi as her own. In the past, Mrs. Sun would bring some snacks and candies to her little nephew every time she came here, but she was in a hurry today, so she didn’t.

Prepare these.

What Sun didn't expect was that when Sun was leaving, Xu actually took two fish dressed with water plants and insisted on letting Sun hold them.

Mrs. Sun knew that her sister-in-law, who was jealous of money, must have started to fawn over her again as before when she saw that she had money.

Mrs. Sun refused to take it at first, but she couldn't resist Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Sun's persuasion, so she had to take the fish and take Yu Xiaolian home.

As soon as Mrs. Sun left, Mrs. Xu quickly asked Mrs. Sun why Mrs. Sun suddenly became rich.

Old Mrs. Sun took out the two and a half pieces of silver and said, "Didn't you say some time ago that you had no money to enroll Xiao Huzi in school? You can use this money. It is better for the child to be willing to learn knowledge. It is better than spending the whole day

It’s better to roll around in the mud.”

Mrs. Xu didn't expect Mrs. Sun to be so polite. She handed it to her before she even asked for it. When she took the money, she also smiled broadly.

"Thank you, mother. Then I'll go to the east end of the village and buy a pot of shochu for Fengshou. He's been craving for wine for many days."

Mrs. Xu took the money and left happily. Seeing Mrs. Xu leave, Mrs. Sun took out the one tael of silver from her sleeve and carefully tucked it into the quilt.

On the way back, Yu Xiaolian pulled a large sunflower leaf from the ground beside the road and placed it on her head to block the sun.

Mrs. Sun was walking behind her carrying two fishes. Suddenly Mrs. Sun stopped Yu Xiaolian and said, "I know you gave me the money. Where did you get the money? Did you steal the money from your milk?"

After all, Yu Xiaolian was imprisoned in the vegetable cellar a few days ago, and now that the money that Mrs. Yu hid in the vegetable cellar is gone, the biggest suspect is undoubtedly Yu Xiaolian.

Yu Xiaolian stopped suddenly. It turned out that her plan that she thought was perfect had been discovered by Mrs. Sun a long time ago.

At this moment, she had no choice but to tell the truth, "Mom...it was indeed me who took the money from my milk. At that time, I was so frightened by the mice that I ran away and stepped into the jar of money from my milk. If you want to blame her, I should blame her."

The jar was buried too shallow."

Mrs. Sun stared at Yu Xiaolian, "Then when your uncle searched the rice bag, why didn't he find any money? I clearly saw him inserting his hand into the rice. We only have half a bag of rice, how could he not be able to touch it?

arrive?"

Yu Xiaolian didn't expect Mr. Sun to be so shrewd, so she couldn't help but feel a little flustered.

A lie often requires a hundred lies to cover. Should she tell the truth to Mr. Sun?
