Chapter 158 I Don’t Have Any Money



The children did the exercises seriously.

Xia Weian and Song Qingyun walked around the playground.

The school playground nowadays is very small, not as big as a basketball court in later generations.

The playground is a pile of sand and dust flies everywhere when the wind blows.

There are two stone blocks nearby for sitting, the trees are not very tall, and there are several rows of cabbages planted under the school wall.

There are also big words written on the wall of the courtyard: "Study hard and make progress every day."

Song Qingyun suddenly felt a sense of peace and tranquility. "The children will start school tomorrow."

"You're the only one left at home. Do you feel a little uncomfortable?"

Song Qingyun nodded, "That's true. The house was so lively before, but now that Lulu is gone and Xuxu has gone back to school, it feels like the atmosphere at home has cooled down a lot."

"As soon as the kids go back to school, I seem to have a lot of free time."

"How can I be considered idle? When we have free time, we can do some homework together. We also have to take care of the cooperative business."

"I guess you'll have to start teaching the new recruits to identify herbs soon. The team leader and the branch secretary have been so worried about it that they've lost a lot of hair."

The couple smiled at each other. Now they were both glad about their decision. Not getting involved in the village's decision allowed them to live a leisurely life.

The two chatted for a while and talked about the old house, both looking a little gloomy.

"Do you think that if the people from the old house come to our house and find that no one is home, they will break in?" Song Qingyun asked.

Xia Weian shook his head. "They don't dare now. We're not at home, and the two families are no longer related. They just broke in. If anything is lost in our house, it's their responsibility."

Song Qingyun exhaled, "I also think they wouldn't dare, but I don't know why I always feel like something bad is going to happen."

Xia Weian looked around and saw no one noticed them. He quickly shook Song Qingyun's hand and said, "Don't think too much, sister Yun. We will always find a way to deal with it."

Song Qingyun sighed lightly.

There are still too many restrictions in this era. If this family suddenly moved to the city or became rich, someone might report them.

Even if others don't say anything, the people in the old house will not let them go.

The world is still not peaceful now.

The couple talked for a while, then sat on the stone block, quietly waiting for the children's test results.

Qingshan Village.

Old Mrs. Xia rushed to Xia Weian's house early in the morning. When she saw the glaring lock on the door, she stomped her feet in anger.

"Xia Weian, that little bastard, left so early."

She cursed angrily for a few words, then looked around to make sure that no one was nearby. Old Lady Xia went to the corner of the backyard.

She looked around like a thief, then began to dig the ground with the small stick she carried with her. She buried something there, stepped on it with her feet, and dug a few times until she could see nothing unusual. Only then did the old lady walk back cursing.

She kept cursing as she walked, and people who saw her asked her where she was going.

Old Mrs. Xia didn't say anything either.

Wang Lanhua saw Old Lady Xia give her a rude look.

"Could it be that he went to look for the third child of your family?"

"No, look at my mouth. I guess I'm going to look for Comrade Xia. Comrade Xia has already severed ties with your family. It wouldn't look good if I went to someone else's house. You have the nerve to say that, but I guess you don't have the nerve to do it either."

Wang Lanhua's voice was sharp and loud, and all the villagers passing by looked over.

Old Mrs. Xia was furious and raised her hand to hit Wang Lanhua.

Wang Lanhua was about to lean back.

"If I fall, I'll tell you, Old Lady Xia, that I'll report you for bullying your fellow class members, for not uniting with your comrades, and for attempting to harm the village labor force and disrupt production before the autumn harvest! I'll make you go back to the study class."

Wang Lanhua spoke one word at a time, and Old Mrs. Xia was frightened. She hurriedly supported the person and almost fell to the ground.

Wang Lanhua stood up straight, snorted triumphantly, and then strode away.

Old Mrs. Xia stamped her feet in anger, but she had no way to deal with Wang Lanhua.

The Wang family has five sons and many grandchildren. She only has two sons now, and their health is not good. The grandchildren are still young, some are married, and the other has just recovered from his leg and cannot walk fast.

Old Mrs. Xia spat twice, then turned around and went to work.

The old house of the Xia family.

Xia Jianguo and Zhao Meilan also went to work, leaving Xia Zixuan alone in the main house.

School is about to start, and he hasn't saved enough money for tuition yet.

what to do?

He has to go to school. He has already been admitted to high school. If he doesn't go to school, his life will be over.

Xia Zixuan walked around the room several times, and finally with a determined look in his eyes, he walked towards Wang Cui's house step by step with the help of crutches.

Xia Zirui has been working in the fields recently. Although he has never worked at home, he is young and in good health. After adapting for a while, he is now doing a good job in farm work.

Wang Cui doesn't have high demands, as long as she can work. Her family is rich, and although she can't take the money out, she can at least make ends meet.

Xia Zirui ate better at Wang Cui's house than at his own. He was working in the fields when he looked up and saw a limping man walking towards him.

Xia Zirui narrowed his eyes and looked at the person coming over clearly. His expression was a little gloomy.

"Second brother." Xia Zixuan called.

Xia Zirui's eyes were cold, "Brother, what are you doing here, to laugh at me?"

"No, second brother, Zirui, we grew up together. Is eldest brother that kind of person?" Xia Zixuan's voice was a little choked.

Now Xia Zirui is his only hope. Old Madam Xia and Old Man Xia have made it clear that they are not prepared to support him, and his parents are even more unreliable. If Xia Zirui does not lend him tuition, he will be completely finished.

Xia Zixuan grabbed Xia Zirui's arm and said, "Zirui, I have something to tell you. Let's go over there and talk."

Before Xia Zirui could speak, Wang Cui walked over and nodded slightly when she saw Xia Zixuan.

"Go and talk to your elder brother, but don't spend too much time." Wang Cui reminded.

Xia Zirui nodded.

He and Wang Cui had not consummated their marriage yet. After all, he was not very old, and Wang Cui was not very old either, so they just lived in two separate rooms.

Wang Cui and Wang Po lived together, and Wang Cui took care of Wang Po herself when she got up at night.

Xia Zirui is responsible for cooking and washing clothes at home, and the two of them now feel like they are dependent on each other.

Under the big tree, Xia Zirui shook off Xia Zixuan's hand.

"Tell me, what do you want from me? I don't have any money." Xia Zirui said coldly.

The corners of Xia Zixuan's lips twitched a few times, and finally he gritted his teeth and knelt down in front of Xia Zirui.

"Zi Rui, please help Big Brother. If you don't help Big Brother, there will be no hope for him."

"you……"
