After crossing, start from the courtyard

Chapter 201 Chapter 192

"It's not good for us, is it?"

"What's wrong! We have all taken the first step, what can be wrong?"

"This... Then just take a little money. It's not good to have too much. It's not ours. It's immoral for us to do this kind of thing with good intentions."

"I said why are you timid at this time? Don't you know that the married daughter belongs to someone else's family? Do you still want to take back the water that was spilled?"

"I……"

In the house, two people are deadlocked over a moral issue.

"If you don't listen to me, you don't even want to get a penny! It will be the same in the future!"

The woman yelled at the man bitterly, and the man had no choice but to make mistakes again and again. If the result goes his way, wouldn't that be a good way to get the best of both worlds?

If it failed... He didn't think about it carefully.

"Okay, five dollars for you."

As soon as Wang Ma saw the money, his whole heart was raised, and he quickly reached out to take it. Sure enough, having money can make people shut up and obey.

Wang Ma hadn't seen so much money for a long time, and it was all money from selling potatoes.

"That's okay, you send the money to old man Zhang? His son is coming back soon, so he has to go early, otherwise, if he gets to the bottom of it, he will die or live."

Aunt Wang impatiently agreed, "Got it, got it, I'll deliver it now, just give him 15 yuan, it's a huge sum of money."

Uncle Zhang’s family has only three sons. Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang work hard every day, saying that labor is glorious, but none of the sons are willing to farm the land. The eldest son moved to the town and rented a house. The family of four squeezed together in a hut.

As for the second son, the bare-handed commander, he has nothing, a wife and deposits, and has a bad temper. He is a proper blood-sucking bug. Need someone to take care of.

The third son is more obedient, but one of the most troublesome things is that the third son has asthma and needs a lot of money for medical treatment. Although he knows that he is sick, he still goes out to work. Will not come back, and will send a letter from time to time, but the old couple is illiterate, so every time the letter is sent directly to Zhao Tianliang.

Mr. Zhao took the letter and would read it to Aunt Zhang and Uncle Zhang, and there would be some small money in it. Although it was not much, it was also a way of showing the child's heart. He also knew that it was not easy for his parents to raise him.

It's just that God is unfair, he was born with poor immunity.

"Uncle Zhang! Are you in the house?"

Uncle Zhang's ears are relatively hard of hearing, and Mrs. Wang yelled for a long time before Uncle Zhang heard it.

"Little Wang? Why are you here?"

"Come and sit down."

Wang looked at the messy arrangement in the room, and there was a sour smell mixed with a little rancid smell in the room.

She quickly covered her mouth and nose, her face twisted into a bitter face.

"Uncle Zhang, I won't go in, I really want to trouble you."

"By the way, this is the money for selling potatoes. Count it, it's 15 yuan."

Uncle Zhang is not very good at arithmetic, he only knows that there are hundreds of catties of potatoes, and he is satisfied with selling them for 15 yuan.

"Thank you, Xiao Wang, my wife and I have trouble walking, so it's a bit difficult to get out."

Uncle Zhang took the 15 yuan, drew several tickets from it, and handed it to Mrs. Wang.

"You have worked hard, this money, take it."

"Ah?" Mrs. Wang was surprised at first, there is no reason not to take the money she got.

"This...then I would be more respectful than obedient, thank you!"

Aunt Wang didn't expect that she would make more money selling the potatoes herself.

After returning home, Wang Ma saw that his wife was so happy, and he was a little puzzled, "What's going on? I gave you money, so happy?"

Immediately afterwards, Aunt Wang took out a few bills and dangled them in front of Wang Ma's eyes.

Wang Ma thought it was pocket money for herself, and just wanted to reach out to get it, but Aunt Wang took it back and said to Wang Ma, "What are you doing? This money is not for you, but I have it for myself." Come on, let me tell you that not only did we earn half of the profits from the potatoes we sold, but Uncle Zhang even gave us some money!"

"Ah? Let's take this too, isn't it too good? It's not that you don't know the situation of your uncle Zhang's house. Aren't we acting against our conscience by doing this?"

Aunt Wang gave Wang Ma a hard look, "When you are so hungry that you don't know what to eat, you won't say that. Now that we have enough food and clothing to support ourselves, if the child grows up, he will be like Uncle Zhang and his family. If that's the case, I won't be able to live!"

"Okay, I'm just joking. You agreed before, let's pretend that nothing happened. If something goes wrong, we say we don't know, and we won't admit it! He Yu has no evidence .”

Aunt Wang shook her head, "We have to strike first, we can't hide this matter, we have to be aboveboard! You wait for me!"

After a while, Aunt Wang ran to the neighbor's house and asked, "Are you cooking?"

Aunt Wang even went into the house to take a look, it didn't matter if she didn't look at it, but it was a big surprise, pork was cooked in the house.

You must know that this pork can't be cooked once a month, and it may not be cooked once a month. The idea is that the pork is probably smaller than a fist, but the pork in front of him is at least as big as two fists, and it was cut out. The meat, you can see the meat when it is fried with vegetables.

"You guys are eating so well, it really sold for a good price!"

Seeing Aunt Wang coming, the neighbors were a little unhappy, but they still greeted her enthusiastically, "Yes, I heard that you also sold a lot of potatoes, and you sold a lot of money, right? We didn't grow much, and sold a little, but my son We want to eat meat, so we made an exception today and bought some meat!"

Aunt Wang looked at the woman in front of her, and then showed a smile, "Hey, how much did you sell those potatoes for? I think there are some potatoes piled up next to you. You should keep them for yourself. My family also kept some. , when the time comes, the fried shredded potatoes will be delicious!"

"Oh! Yes, it sold for a lot of money, more than 30 yuan! Three baskets!"

"What? Your family has sold three panniers. Is the pannier the same as mine?"

The neighbor didn't know what Wang meant, so he pointed to the empty pannier in the kitchen and said, "This is the pannier we used, what's wrong?"

Mrs. Wang came to the back basket in shock, looked at the size and gestured several times, and looked at the neighbor in shock, "This back bag...is just to be as big as ours. Your family sold three back baskets for 30 yuan. ?”

"Yeah, what's the matter? Could it be that your family sold less?"

"I sold several backpacks for only 15 yuan! He Yukeng is the co-author of our family?"

The neighbor looked at Wang in disbelief, "How could it be? Did you make a mistake? Xiao Yu gave the same price, everyone sold for a lot of money, and I went with Xiaohong, he He also gave Xiaohong a lot of money!"

"This He Yu is obviously aimed at our family. He knew that I borrowed his cattle and received money, so he held a grudge and bought potatoes at a low price when I was collecting potatoes. At that time, I sold them without knowing the price. Now it is so Thinking about it, what a disaster!"

"Even if he gave this kind of seed! But I also sold it for others. The price is so much lower. I am so sorry for Mr. Zhang! Why do you think I got involved in this matter, but this is with my heart and mind. It's too vicious, and he treats it differently, he is trying to make it easier for those who disobey him."

"Our family didn't grow potatoes, but he can't treat us like this!"

"No, I have to tell Uncle Zhang first! Let's not talk about it, I will go to Uncle Zhang first, and then I will settle accounts with He Yu later!"

Wang Shi hurried out of the room angrily, and everyone in the room was still in a daze.

"What's going on here? This Xiaoyu is not such a person, is he? Why is he so short on Mrs. Wang?"

This Mrs. Wang was going to Uncle Zhang's house while telling the passing neighbors about He Yu's fault.

"Ms. Li, this He Yu is deliberately deceiving us! I brought several potatoes in a basket, but they only sold them for 15 yuan!"

"Mr. Wang, did you make a mistake? Both of our backpacks sold for more than 20!"

Not only that, Wang told one person, but one person didn't believe it.

"It's different with you. He is targeting people like us who disobey his wishes. Many people disapproved at the last village meeting. He has grudges in his heart, and this has already put me in the bottom of his heart. I got blocked, you said that if I go to sell a potato, he can treat me kindly?"

"Besides, I'm selling it for others. You know Uncle Zhang's family, his old couple have trouble with their legs and feet, and the third son hasn't come back. Tell me, I'm kind enough to help you. How did this happen? ?!"

While complaining, Mrs. Wang walked towards Uncle Zhang's house. By coincidence, a familiar voice appeared at the door of Uncle Zhang's house. When he came closer, he saw that this was the second son of Uncle Zhang's family.Why did she come back suddenly? She walked up curiously.

"Is it Zhang Erfu?"

"Hey, Aunt Wang."

"Why do you come to me when you are free? What's the matter?"

"It's okay, I just need to discuss something with your father!"

Not long after Mrs. Wang left, things became more and more fermented.

"Mine is inside, his ears are not working well, tell me!"

Mrs. Wang took a look inside the house and told Uncle Zhang that maybe Uncle Zhang couldn't show his temper. If he didn't want the potato money and wanted to give He Yu a favor, then the matter would be meaningless, but if If he told his second son, this guy couldn't hold back, and he wouldn't send a single cent out.

Immediately after, Wang started acting, crying and looking at Zhang Erfu.

"It's all your fault, Aunt Wang. If I hadn't been cheated, I wouldn't have given so much less money."

Zhang Erfu is not interested in anything but money. As soon as he heard Wang mentioned the word money, he immediately came to Wang with interest, "What's the matter, Aunt Wang?"

"Didn't you grow potatoes before? Then your father and mother worked hard to grow potatoes, and then there was a heavy rainstorm. The harvest was not very good, and then they took the remaining potatoes and entrusted me to sell them, and then I see you Dad, it's not very convenient for you to have legs and feet, so I'll let my family Wang Ma carry it to He Yu's house to sell it."

"You may not know that He Yu came to our village not long ago, and then he encouraged us to plant potatoes together! And he vowed to buy at a price higher than the market price! After I sold it, I handed over the money to your dad."

Zhang Erfu's eyes lit up when he heard so much money, "How much did Aunt Wang sell for?"

"Ten..." Wang just wanted to say it, but when she thought that this Erfu was not a fuel-efficient lamp, she said more, in case he knew that Grandpa Zhang had given her 5 yuan, what would she do if she wanted to go back.

"Ask your father, don't you know? By the way, I passed by another house today, and I happened to see that they were cooking meat, and then I asked about it as soon as I went in. They just carried a few baskets and sold them. Dozens of dollars!"

"The potatoes I sold to your father are at least a few hundred catties. It is impossible to be worth that little money. This He Yu must have stolen our money and the hard-earned money of the common people. You said that this is making money against conscience! It's a thunderbolt!"

"Hey! It's all because I was fine when I sold it. First ask the other neighbors how much they paid for it when they sold it."

"It also led to the sale..."

At this moment, Uncle Zhang came out and saw Mrs. Wang asking at the door, "Mr. Wang, what's the matter? Is there anything wrong?"

"Uncle Zhang, I'm sorry for you!"

As soon as the words fell, Zhang Erfu couldn't bear it anymore, and he asked, "How much did you sell potatoes for?"

"ten bucks."

"What is only 10 yuan? They sold several baskets for dozens of yuan. How many baskets did our family sell?"

Mrs. Wang immediately added, "Five or six of them carried baskets, and we all ran several times."

"Five or six baskets? It's worth a lot of money, right? Why is it only 10 yuan? Sure enough, our family has been blackmailed!"

Uncle Zhang thinks that 10 yuan is enough. If you want to sell it on the street, you may not be able to sell it for 10 yuan.

"It's okay, 10 yuan is enough for us to eat for a long time!"

"And this kind of seed was also provided by Xiao Yu. All the potato seeds in our village are given by him. What is the money? And just in case the memorization is different, the weight is different, and there are differences. Don't worry about it!"

Zhang Erfu was not convinced, "That's not okay, he just provided us with a seed, if that's the case, wouldn't we work hard for him for free?"

"Absolutely not. It must be worth dozens of dollars. These dozens of dollars are not a small amount!"

Zhang Erfu became angry when he thought about it, and asked Wang, "You lead me, I'm going to find that He Yu to settle the score, and let him reason with me! Why do you only have 10 yuan when we come to our house, and everyone else It's dozens of dollars!"

"Er Fu~" Uncle Zhang wanted to stop his son, his legs and feet were not convenient, and he was not as fast as the young man, so he couldn't keep up with the two of them.

As they walked, Mrs. Wang fanned the flames, "This He Yu is really deceiving people too much. There must be more than that. We are short of catties! When everyone goes to sell potatoes, they carry several baskets on their backs."

"Aunt Wang, it's a good thing I came back in time, otherwise we would have to swallow this loss. Why do you think my father is so spineless? These are all grown by himself. How much are those potato seeds he provided worth?"

"Erfu, you are right!"
