Chapter 197 Still a Child
Chang Lian squeezed the purse at his waist, the money in the purse was only one hundred Wen, which was the rest of the hundred Wen that his father gave him when his parents went to Pingzhou last time, plus the New Year red envelope, a few months, he He only used a few tens of pennies, but still lent it to a needy classmate. He learned a lot from his father. He does not have the ability of his father to be kind to the family, but he can help some poor foreigners with potential, otherwise he would have a penny. Not willing to spend.
Zhu Lan waited for a long time before Chang Lian opened her mouth, watching Chang Lian's fingers pinching the purse, and hearing the sound of copper coins colliding, "Do you want silver money?"
Chang Lian didn't dare to ask his father for money, he also wanted to borrow Rong Chuan's money, he was not stupid, he would have to pay it back sooner or later, after thinking about it, he could only ask his mother for it, "Mom, the Mid-Autumn Festival is only a month away , this is the first holiday after Chuchu and I got engaged, I want to give Chuchu a gift, but I don't have enough money, can mother give me two hundred Wen?"
Zhulan felt that Changlian was not telling the truth, and always felt that this boy was not just giving his fiancée a Mid-Autumn Festival gift.
Looking at Chang Lian's bulging purse, she was speechless. Last time Zhou Shuren gave her money, this kid didn't spend a penny, and even found a purse to hang around her waist, and put all the money in the purse, so she didn't see the purse. Depressed, this kid has the potential to be a miser.
Seeing that his mother didn't reply, Changlian didn't despise his mother for a long time. Now in his heart, his mother is the smartest person in the family besides his father. "Mother, why do you look at me like that?"
Zhulan withdrew her gaze and directed Changlian to say: "Mother's purse is on the kang cabinet in the house, you go and get it."
As soon as Chang Lian left, Mrs. Li left the vegetables in her hand and walked over quickly, "Mother, the vegetables are all picked."
Zhulan resisted the urge to roll her eyes, and said disgustedly: "Don't think I didn't see you eavesdropping with your ears upright, Ming Teng can't fool you with your simple thoughts, so you come to fool me?"
Mrs. Li, "Mother, Ming Teng is not as good as me."
Zhulan was speechless, "You really have the nerve to compare with Ming Teng, how old are you to Ming Teng, that's enough, call your siblings over."
Mrs. Li is reluctant to leave. The third brother wants two hundred taels. Two hundred taels is not a small amount of money. Hundreds of coins, isn't it a single delivery along with the family gifts, that's not okay, there will be more festivals in the future, and they will be given every time, wouldn't they be at a disadvantage?
Chang Lian was holding his mother's purse and watched his sister-in-law leave speechlessly. He never thought of asking for money secretly, otherwise there would be many opportunities to ask for it secretly. He always thought that her sister-in-law had changed, and he was comforting her a few days ago. , the result touched the interests of the sister-in-law, the sister-in-law has not changed at all, very good, the warmth is for nothing.
Zhulan took the purse. Her purse didn't have dozens of copper coins, but a lot of broken silver, all of which were about the size of one or two renminbi. He poured out two coins and handed it to Chang Lian, "Here's this for you."
Chang Lian is holding the broken silver, it's still easy for his mother to talk, if he changed his father, he wouldn't spoil him, he really frightened his father, he always felt that if his mother wasn't around, their sons would be useless, in his heart I pray that my mother will live a long life, and that she must outlive my father.
Chang Lian packed up the money, "Thank you mother, I will definitely not waste money carelessly."
Zhulan poured out another two pieces of silver, looked up at Changlian, "In this family, you won't spend money indiscriminately, mother trusts you."
Changlian was moved, only mother would trust him, "Mother, why do you trust me so much? I didn't do well."
After the family changed, he also observed silently. Although he didn't want to admit it, he also found that his character was not as good as that of his two elder brothers. He is selfish and selfish. I didn't expect to trust him so much in my mother's heart, and my nose was a little sore.
Zhulan fastened her purse, "Because you have the potential to be a miser, you are not willing to spend a penny to your death,
Mother naturally believes that you will not waste money recklessly. "
Chang Lian, "..."
Heartbroken, the emotion is gone!
Zhulan's eyes were full of smiles, this kid started pretending to be an adult after getting engaged, but if he pretended too much, he lost his sincerity, he was still a child after all, look how vivid his expression is now.
Seeing the corner of his mother's mouth smiling, Chang Lian's feeling of grievance disappeared. He knew that his mother was teasing him, and he had other emotions in his heart, "Mother."
It is rare for Zhulan to see Confucian admiration in Changlian's eyes. She and Zhou Shuren have been here for a year. Since the boy found out that the family is fair, he has always thought about fighting for his own interests. Later, he found out that she and Zhou Shuren are powerful. At the beginning, I was afraid of learning to change myself, and now I keep imitating Zhou Shuren, and it has indeed become better and better, but this kid has always kept a distance from her and Zhou Shuren. Someone to surpass.
Zhulan felt relieved, it is a child after all, temperament is not formed in a day, the child has not been educated well since childhood, it is the fault of the original couple, now she and Zhou Shuren are here, Changlian changes day by day, this child can Well-educated, now it is rare to let your emotions out. Changlian also needs fatherly love and maternal love. She only teased him once, and Changlian longed for maternal love.
Zhulan raised her hand and touched Chang Lian's head, "You've grown so fast this year, when the Mid-Autumn Festival, mother will make you a new dress, mother's third son will certainly be no worse than the young man in the county, in the book Didn’t you say that son Ruyu, Changlian will also be Ruyu’s salary.”
Chang Lian's eyes are red. He is the fourth child in his family. There are many children in the family, and his parents pay little attention to him. I don't care anymore, it turned out that I had been looking forward to it in my heart, and my nasal voice was a bit heavy, "En."
Zhulan sighed in her heart, in modern times, she was just a junior high school student, and when her mind matured, she was still a child.
There was a pop, especially loud in the quiet yard.
Li blushed, "Mother, I, I couldn't hold back, I didn't mean it."
Chang Lian blushed, he was shy, the two sister-in-laws saw his appearance just now, they turned around and ran away quickly, what a shame.
Li Shi's face turned even redder, and she didn't expect her fart to be so loud, "Mom, I'm going back to the house."
Zhao returned to her senses, this development was a bit beyond her expectation, she wanted to laugh with her mother around but couldn't laugh out loud, it was very hard to endure the shaking of her shoulders.
Zhu Lan had no scruples, she laughed out loud, and the shy Li Shi ran away without any complacency, with only short legs running fast, and closed the door with a bang.
Zhulan suppressed a smile and handed the two silver coins in her hand to Mrs. Zhao, "This is money for the Mid-Autumn Festival for both of you, two coins for each room, take it to your sister-in-law!"
Mrs. Zhao happily took the silver coin. Mother meant that the money was for the two families alone. No matter how Hua Niang would not care about it, it was a windfall. The dissatisfaction with the third child just now was gone. .”
Zhulan waved for Mrs. Zhao to send it to Mrs. Li, and when Mrs. Zhao left, Zhulan rubbed her chin. The money at home was still low. If there were more, she could learn how to give monthly money. She touched her purse, faintly Sighing, the family still needs to buy land and save money for future expenses, so it's better to save some money.
At night, I knew that Zhulan had given me money for the Mid-Autumn Festival. Originally, Zhulan wanted to explain that I gave it to Chang Lian because I had a fiancée. No, I went back to endorse after dinner.
Bamboo Orchid, "..."
She felt a little sympathetic to her old daughter-in-law in the future.
The next day, Zhulan looked at the somewhat guilty Li Shi, "Are you going to the county?"
