A peasant girl traveled through time and space, and she became prosperous
Chapter 40 Good boy
"Good boy, get up, you are right.
If you are poor, don't join the crowd. If you have no words, don't persuade others. I am in such a state myself, why should I save face in front of your grandmother? It is not shameful to admit that I am not good enough. It is much better than pretending to be rich. I feel relieved.
In the past, Dad was too proud to humble himself, thinking that he could still support the family as he did before, even if it meant suffering a little, but he ignored you.
You are my closest family.”
Mother is relieved that Father has the awareness he has now and has gotten rid of so many burdens. Their lives will become more and more promising.
Mother quickly picked up the warm wine and said:
"Good boy, your father won't blame you."
Wen Meijiu could hear that her father had indeed come to his senses. When her mother pulled her, she stood up swiftly and smiled happily at her parents.
"Dad, you are such a good man. You protected Mom so hard just now."
Dad had been lying in bed, and it was already difficult for him to move, but he still tried his best to stand up and protect Mom. Mom's following him was not in vain, and I was happy for her by warming the wine.
Dad smiled. There was no need to be tough at this time. He turned back to Mom and said:
"Jiao Niang, come here and give me a hand. It hurts a lot here. Maybe I got stretched just now."
Mother responded and went over, lifted the quilt where Dad pointed, revealing Dad's legs, which looked extremely slender in the wide trouser legs.
"Where does it hurt?"
Mother cared a lot about father's feelings. She was more affectionate than father and more nervous than he was, looking him up and down.
"here."
Dad pointed to the calf area, and Mom skillfully helped Dad massage the calf muscles.
"Does it still hurt?"
Dad nodded, and from his painful expression you could tell that he was trying hard to hold it in.
Wen Meijiu was surprised. She had always thought that her father's legs had no feeling, but she didn't expect that his legs would still hurt.
This means that Dad’s legs can still be saved!
"Mom, let me see."
Wen Meijiu squeezed next to his mother and started to pinch the place where his father said it hurt.
The force that mother applied to dad was relatively gentle, so he could still endure it. But Wen Meijiu didn't use much pressure, so he suddenly screamed.
“Ah, it hurts.”
Dad said this several times, and Wen Meijiu quickly retracted his hand. With a sparkling light in his eyes, he turned around and said to his mother:
"Mom, my dad's leg can still be saved. He is conscious. Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
When Wen Meijiu said this, my mother's face showed mixed feelings of joy and sorrow.
It was good news that her husband's leg could be cured, but when she thought about how much money it would cost to cure her husband's leg, she immediately became discouraged.
The family was so poor that they had to sell their children. How could they have money to treat her husband's illness? Although she had five taels of silver given by her eldest daughter, which was enough for the whole family's future food, she couldn't touch it.
"If it can really be cured, that's a good thing."
Mother was considerate of father's feelings, so she forced a smile and said something ambiguous.
Dad was in agreement with Mingjing. He knew the family had no money, so he would not bring up the topic. He said vaguely:
"My leg, I don't know for sure, it can't be cured, so I won't waste the money."
Wen Meijiu was not stupid either. She quickly realized what her parents were thinking. It must be about money.
Wen Meijiu calculated in her mind that she got 116 taels of silver from Wang Yuanwai's bridal chamber, plus the 200 taels given to her by Liu Xianggong and the 50 taels that Wang Yuanwai asked her to give to the bandits, which was almost 360 taels in total, not counting other things.
With this money, it shouldn't be a problem to treat my dad's leg.
That is, taking out so much money at once would not only easily attract other people's attention, but she would also have no way to explain it to her family. Besides, she was also afraid that others would be jealous.
After much thought, I decided that it would be more appropriate to use Prince Wang as a shield.
"Dad, don't be discouraged. Your leg can be cured, and maybe it won't cost any money."
The mother was overjoyed that her husband's leg could be cured without spending any money. She grabbed her sleeve and asked:
"Wine, are you serious?"
"Of course it's true, mother, have you ever seen me lie to you?"
The mother thought about it and agreed. Her daughter was so sensible and devoted to the family, how could she lie to her?
"Then tell me how to do it without spending any money."
Mother was anxious and her voice began to tremble.
If my husband could get back on his feet, with his talents, his future would be bright, whether he finds a new job or continues to study for the imperial examinations.
If her husband is well, the whole family will be well, and she won't have to go out to show off her wine. After all, she is a girl, already fifteen years old, and is about to get married, but because her family is so poor, no one has shown interest in her.
The father felt itchy after hearing this, but thinking of the reality, he didn't want to burden his daughter. He could guess that his daughter would definitely go to that young master for help.
Look, this poor man has little ambition. He ate other people's prey, so how can he have the face to ask others to help take care of his legs? The good wine in this family is really unlucky.
"Why treat it? If you don't want to treat it, don't embarrass our girl anymore. Parents should be content. Do you want to be like mother, mean and mean?"
When my mother heard what my father said, the fire in her heart was poured with a basin of cold water, and the light in her eyes suddenly dimmed.
Yes, I have to think about my daughter. She has already given enough to this family. She wants to give up, but she is unwilling to do so.
Wen Meijiu knew what his parents were thinking, so he smiled and said to his father:
"Dad, how can you say that about Mom?
My mother loves me the most, and everything I do is what I want to do.
Besides, someone owes me a favor and has been trying to find a way to repay it. I have to give him a chance, right?
Does Dad want me to manipulate others through favors, making them feel uncomfortable and feel that they owe me for the rest of their lives? "
Dad didn't believe it. He glanced at Wen Meijiu and turned his head slightly towards Li.
"Dad, don't you believe it?"
Wen Meijiu deliberately pulled her father's shoulder to make him look at her.
Dad patted his shoulder, knocked down Wen Meijiu's hand and said:
"You don't believe it yourself, do you?"
Wen Meijiu curled his lips and said, "Don't think that Dad is a scholar. He is not smart at all and always looks at people with old eyes."
Dad was called stubborn, turned around unconvinced and said:
“Who’s inflexible?”
When Wen Meijiu saw that her father was serious, she burst into laughter. She wanted to provoke her father on purpose, but she didn't expect it to work.
"Flexible? How come Dad can't even understand this?
He owes me a favor and is always unable to sleep or eat. Our family just happens to need his help, so let him come and help you and repay my favor at the same time.
In this way, people feel comfortable when they see me, and I feel no pressure when I see them. Why doesn't Dad believe it?"
Dad's mouth twitched, and he said with an expression that he didn't understand me yet:
"Dad raised you from childhood, don't you know how good you are?
What ability do you have to make others owe you a favor?"
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, the father regretted it, thinking that these words might have hurt his daughter. Of course, the "other people" he was referring to was Prince Wang.
Wen Meijiu didn't care and even thought her father's angry look was a little cute.
"Dad, you really don't care about me at all, you don't love me, you don't even know what I'm capable of, and you still laugh at me. I'm not going to talk to you anymore."
