Huizi asked everyone to sit down and have tea. Liu Guohua was very curious about Liu Afang's current situation.
Although Qiao Youcai is not smart, he is not stupid either. He will not show off just because he has a little money. No matter how people ask him, he always says the same thing.
I first used the money to buy goods from the city, then traveled all over the country to earn some hard-earned money, just enough to support my family.
When everyone heard that they had to invest a considerable amount of capital first and that there was some risk, they lost interest.
They are all honest farmers who like a stable life and are unwilling to take any risks.
After sitting in Liu Guohua's house for a while, Fengmei came to call us for dinner.
As soon as she entered the house, Sister Liu saw Taozi and winked at her as if she wanted to do something.
Taozi was delighted that her mother finally remembered her.
He hurriedly followed Sister Liu out.
"Mom, what's the matter?"
Sister Liu looked behind her and asked carefully, "Did your third aunt give you a red envelope?"
Taozi nodded, "I gave it to you."
Sister Liu's expression softened, "How much did you give?"
Taozi said happily, "I gave him five yuan."
"Wuyi? Tsk tsk, this old man is so generous for the first time in his life." After saying this to herself, Sister Liu stretched out her hand towards Taozi.
"Here, I'll put it for you."
Taozi immediately became alert, holding her pocket and taking a step back, "I don't need you to keep it for me. Every year I receive red envelopes, you always tell me to keep them for me. Have you ever given me any in all these years?"
Sister Liu's face turned grim. "How can you talk like that? Why do you, a little kid, need money?
Do you think that you deserve the red envelopes given to you? That’s because you are my daughter. Otherwise, would you give red envelopes to anyone who sees a child on the street? ”
"Just because you're accepting red envelopes, does that mean I don't have to give out red envelopes? Since people gave it to you, I have to give it back to them. Hurry up and take it out." As she said that, Sister Liu reached out her hand to take it out herself.
Taozi was no longer the ignorant child she used to be. She backed away with a frown on her face, holding her pocket.
"What does it have to do with me? If I weren't there, wouldn't you have to give out red envelopes? Every time you told me to leave it there, when did you ever give it to me when I asked for it?
When I was 11 years old and went to take an exam, I told you many times that the fare was four dollars, but you only gave me three dollars.
You also told me to act pitiful, saying that I was a girl, and asked me to beg the ticket seller to give me a discount. As a result, you caused me to fail the exam. ”
Taozi recalled the only time she took a car in her life, and her aggrieved eyes were filled with tears.
She held three taels of silver in her hand, wore ill-fitting clothes, and sat on her seat nervously, wondering what she would say when the conductor collected her ticket.
Did he mean that he accidentally dropped a dime, or that his family had no money and he could only take out three dime in total?
How should I act pitiful so that the ticket seller will agree to let me ride the bus?
As the ticket seller started selling tickets and walked towards her, her heart was about to jump out of her chest with nervousness.
She grabbed the corner of her clothes, blushing, and said to the ticket seller stutteringly, "Auntie, I only have three taels of money, and I lost one tael on the way."
The ticket seller shouted at her, "How can you bargain for a ticket? If anyone says they dropped a dollar, can I afford it?"
You are so tall, and if you want to occupy a seat, you must buy enough. ”
Everyone was looking at her, and she felt so embarrassed that she wanted to find a hole to crawl into.
