The man was handsome, from a good family, and generous to her; she was very satisfied.<...
Ying Sisi glanced at it and said nothing.
The old man continued: "I have been talking for so long, can you understand? My hometown is in Sichuan and mountains."
Ying Sisi: "I think I can understand it."
"You understood everything, but my daughter-in-law said she didn't. Do you think she did it on purpose?" The old man waited for Ying Sisi's answer and caught a glimpse of a string of copper coins hanging behind her door. "My family has this too. The villagers got it from the landlord. It's worthless."
Ying Sisi finally lifted her gaze from the chopping board: "It's worthless, yet you're still trying to get a share."
“分的时候以为值钱。”老大爷自顾自道:“可惜那家人跑了,否则我们非揍死他们不可,你是不知道那户人家做了多少的坏事儿,看上谁家姑娘,也不管人家愿不愿意,直接上门提亲强娶。等腻歪了,再把人送回去,聘礼要回”
Ying Sisi commented: "That's quite a pity."
The old lady had told her something similar.
It's not just the rich who are hateful, the poor are just as hateful.
For example, pawning a wife.
Fortunately, she was not born in that era, otherwise she would not have made it.
After the meal is ready.
Ying Sisi served the old man first.
The old man took a look at the fish stewed with tofu, small green vegetables, pickled mustard greens and egg soup: "Wow, it's so rich, but the portion is a bit small."
"If it's not enough, I'll give you more."
"I thought you only made this much, and I thought I could eat most of it myself. Turns out you still have some. Why don't you eat it?"
"I'll wait for my partner. Uncle, please eat first." Ying Sisi returned to the kitchen to clean up.
The old man cleared the dishes and burped, "Thank you, girl. Can I come again tomorrow?"
Ying Sisi: “.” Still coming? She smiled and said, “Okay, what time do you want to come? If I’m at home, I’ll prepare it for you in advance. If you’re going out, I’ll take you home.”
"My son brought me lunch at noon, but I was very hungry around four o'clock in the afternoon. You are so polite." The old man smiled. He had been in the city for almost a month, and it was the first time he saw such a nice girl. He said hello and left.
I happened to meet Qin Yanci when I went downstairs.
He reached out and grabbed the other person: "Young man, come with me."
Qin Yanci didn't understand the situation and thought that the man had bought some things after his house burned down and needed his help to put them away. He hurried to follow.
The old man pushed open the blackened door.
Qin Yanci glanced around.
The living room walls were completely black, with almost nothing left. "Is your bedroom habitable?"
"The bedroom is fine. I closed the door when I ran out. Only the door was burned. The inside is fine. It's the kitchen that's gone. Oh, if I had known this house was so shabby, I would never have smoked meat in it." The old man regretted it deeply and walked over to Qin Yanci with a drawer and put it on the ground: "This is for your wife. Thank you for cooking for me."
Qin Yanci lowered his eyes and saw a large string of copper coins.
I estimate there are two or three hundred.
Thinking of how Si Si had asked him about copper coins earlier, he found a string hanging behind the front door of his house.
The rest should be taken action.
He bent his legs and half squatted, raised his hand and picked up some things casually. They were all common and not valuable.
It takes up space when you take it home.
He said, "It's just a meal, there's no need for that."
"I'll go there tomorrow." The old man stuffed the money into Qin Yanci's hand and said, "Take it. Consider it a small token of my appreciation."
Qin Yanci was reluctant to accept it, but he thought it would be a waste if he didn't take it. He could then find someone to melt it down and make a Pi Xiu to put at home as a decoration. He thanked him and left.
