Chapter 371 This is all our money
When the master's daughter heard this, she was delighted: "Dad!"
They went to the hospital yesterday, and the doctor just shook his head and secretly told her that it was almost time to prepare for her funeral...
The master also looked at Xia Juanjuan in surprise, then smiled and said, "Forget it. I am also a person who is almost exhausted. You should try your best and give it a try!"
After hearing this, Xia Juanjuan turned around and felt his pulse. After a while, she let go of his hand and said, "It's a problem with poor lung qi. I'll prescribe some medicine for you and bring it back tomorrow."
The daughter quickly asked, "Is it... serious? Can it be cured?"
Xia Juanjuan didn't want to say anything too confident, so she smiled and said, "I can't really say for sure. But if you take good care of yourself, you should be able to get better."
After saying that, he went out, thought for a while, went to the department store and bought a military coat, a dog-skin hat, animal-skin boots, gloves, a scarf and other things, and then went to the school gate to pick up Xiaowen, Xiaowu and Beibei.
"Mom! Why are you picking us up today? Where's Grandpa?"
Xiaowen, Xiaowu and Beibei were overjoyed when they met Xia Juanjuan.
Xia Juanjuan smiled and said, "Your grandpa has something to do today. I finished class early and just happened to come and pick you up."
Several people walked all the way home.
Xiao Wu said, "Mom, Grandpa said he would take us to the bathhouse to take a bath in two days!"
Xia Juanjuan was stunned for a moment, then she remembered that in those days, most homes did not have bathrooms, so people went to public baths to take a bath. It cost 1 cent for adults and 5 cents for children. Taking a bath in the winter was quite comfortable for the body.
There is a hot spring in Xia Juanjuan's space, so you don't have to go to the bathhouse to experience it.
Beibei looked envious: "Mom, I want to go too. But grandpa said that I'm a girl and he can't take me with him!"
Xia Juanjuan smiled and said, "In a place like that, everyone has to take off all their clothes to wash, which is so embarrassing. But if you want to go, let your grandmother take you there to wash."
As they walked into the yard, the triplets immediately flew over and said, "Mom! We're going to the bathhouse to take a bath!"
Xia Juanjuan was both amused and confused. This bathhouse was so attractive that all the children in the family were thinking about it.
Lin Yuru had almost finished cooking. She poked her head out and smiled guiltily, "You're back? Let's eat right away."
Xia Shuangshan also came back and was tidying up the firewood in the yard. When he saw Xia Juanjuan, he was still a little afraid to look up.
In the evening, we had corn porridge, mixed-wheat steamed buns, stir-fried radish with meat, stir-fried potatoes with chicken, and stir-fried spinach.
After dinner, I got some hot water to wash my face and feet.
Xiaowen, Xiaowu and Beibei started doing their homework. The triplets surrounded Xia Juanjuan and asked her to explain the story in the picture book to them.
It was around nine o'clock in the evening. The triplets were sleepy. After coaxing them to sleep, I saw Xiaowen, Xiaowu and Beibei were still doing their homework.
Xia Juanjuan closed the door and took out a small box from the living room. There was about a thousand yuan in it. In addition, there were two gold bars, the pair of jade bracelets and the gold incense burner that she had collected at the beginning.
Then he came out, holding the treasure box and the clothes he bought in the department store in the afternoon, and went to Xia Shuangshan and Lin Yuru's house.
After Xia Shuangshan came back, he told Lin Yuru that he was outside hauling coal for someone else and was caught by Xia Juanjuan. During the whole night, he could not tell what attitude his young lady had, so the two of them were still struggling over whether they should continue.
"One dollar a day is not a small amount..." Xia Shuangshan was still reluctant.
"But, even though Juan'er doesn't say it, she doesn't agree in her heart, right? It would be embarrassing if we tell others about it..."
"What's the big deal? I'm just selling my labor, not stealing or doing something illegal. Juan'er is helping me get the money today. If she feels embarrassed, she probably won't come out..."
Xia Juanjuan coughed twice and shouted, "Dad, Mom, you are not asleep yet, right?"
Having said that, he opened the curtain and went in.
Xia Shuangshan and Lin Yuru both looked a little embarrassed: "Juan'er..."
Xia Juanjuan sat down, handed a bag of clothes to Xia Shuangshan, and said, "Dad, I bought you a new cotton coat, hat, boots and gloves today. You are going out to haul coal for others. It's so cold, so you have to keep warm."
Xia Shuangshan and Lin Yuru looked at each other, and Lin Yuru asked in surprise, "Juan'er...you...you don't object to your father doing this?"
Xia Juanjuan smiled and said, "My father is right. It's not shameful to sell your labor. Besides, in the past, in the village, you worked when you were busy, and you had someone to talk to when you were free, so life was not boring. I asked you to come to the city, saying that the conditions were better than in the countryside and you could enjoy life. In fact, there was no one to talk to, so you couldn't enjoy any happiness. My father couldn't stay idle at home, so he went out to stretch his muscles, find a few people to talk to, and make money. It was three birds with one stone, which was pretty good."
After hearing this, Xia Shuangshan and Lin Yuru finally put down the heavy stone in their hearts.
"Hey! Juan'er, if you're not angry, your parents will feel much better."
Xia Juanjuan looked at them and said, "Don't be busy. I haven't finished talking yet. Let me show you something..."
As he said this, he placed the small box on the table.
Xia Shuangshan and Lin Yuru looked at each other.
Xia Juanjuan didn't keep the secret and directly opened the lid of the box.
Under the dim electric light, the box was sparkling with gold.
Xia Shuangshan and Lin Yuru were both stunned for a moment, then they widened their eyes and raised their heads to look at Xia Juanjuan in surprise.
Lin Yuru was a timid person, and she asked stutteringly, "Juan'er...where did this come from?"
This box contains two gold bars, a jade bracelet, a golden beast incense burner, and a huge and thick soup.
How much is this worth!
Xia Juanjuan smiled and said, "Where else could it have come from? This is all our family's money!"
