Chapter 6 Silver Bowl, Silver Spoon, Silver Chopsticks



I went to the safe and looked through it. I found three cards and several bundles of banknotes. Even if there was 40,000 yuan in the card, it was useless here.

I have several platinum chains, but unfortunately they are not silver. I don’t know if I can exchange them for money.

Suddenly, Song Jinxiu remembered a few sets of silver tableware.

She hurried into the kitchen and opened the cupboard. Sure enough, three sets of silverware were still in their packaging boxes.

Silver bowl, silver chopsticks, silver bowl with exquisite patterns, should be able to exchange it for some money at a pawn shop or silver shop. If it really doesn't work, you can use the money after you've strangled it.

As for how to explain it?

I won't explain it if I can't explain it clearly. I can't be so cautious and risk my brother's life, right?

Song Chunsheng watched his sister close the door, thinking that she was crying in the room out of sadness and anger.

"San Ya, no, Jin Xiu, I'm fine. I'll be fine after two days of rest. Come out soon. You still need to clean up the yard. Can I not do any work today?"

His sister didn't say anything. Song Chunsheng sat on the ground leaning against the wall, bent over and covered his face with his hands, and couldn't help but cry.

At the age of sixteen, he is actually still a child. He is actually using his strength to disguise his helplessness.

He really wanted to cry.

But he was the eldest brother, and he had finally taken his sisters away from that home. They still had to survive, so he couldn't cry.

He wiped his tears with his sleeve and smiled at his younger brother who was looking at him nervously.

"Qiu Sheng, don't cry. Brother, take a break. Can you tell your elder sister to open the door?"

Qiu Sheng pursed his lips, clutched his clothes tightly in his hands, and sobbed.

Song Jinxiu walked out of the room and looked at her brother's eyes which were obviously filled with tears. She couldn't even say a word of blame.

She sighed and stuffed the unpacked silver bowl, silver chopsticks into her brother's hand.

"Brother, how much can this sell for?"

Song Chunsheng was so frightened that his hands shook and he almost dropped the bowl.

"You, you, where did this come from?"

"I dug up a ginseng in the mountains last year and exchanged it with someone." Song Jinxiu lied very smoothly.

"Ah? How come I didn't know that?" Song Chunsheng was skeptical.

"I hid it secretly. Otherwise, with grandma's behavior, how could we keep it?"

That's true. Song Chunsheng couldn't help but look at his sister with admiration.

My sister was smart and knew to hide the private money early on, but I was stupid and didn't realize that my father was unreliable until my mother was divorced.

Song Chunsheng weighed the thing in his hand, and the more he looked at it, the more frightened he became.

This thing looks so good, it must be worth a lot of money. How big a ginseng did my sister dig?

Just then, a loud voice from inside rang out at the door.

"Chun Sheng, Chun Sheng?"

Song Chunsheng quickly stuffed the silver bowl, silver spoon and silver chopsticks at his sister and said, "Put them away quickly."

This bowl is so eye-catching. Can't let anyone see it.

Song Jinxiu also hurriedly took it and wrapped the thing in her lapel.

"Chunsheng, is your leg injury serious? Wu Ya is crying like a tearful person. Let me take a look, let me take a look."

Li strode into the yard. A group of villagers followed behind.

I ran into Wu Ya in the village just now. The child was in a panic, going from house to house to ask who could borrow a cart.

When he stopped her and asked her, the child started crying breathlessly. It took her a long time to say that she borrowed the car to show her brother's legs.

It was he who decided to separate Chunsheng and the other children from the Song family. Only if the children live well can it be said that he did the right thing. If anything happens, won't Song Shitou's wife blame me for the rest of my life?

So, Li came over quickly to see what was going on.

"Grandpa,

Song Chunsheng greeted him while moving his legs helplessly.

When I saw Song Chunsheng's legs, my heart shuddered.

I’m afraid this child’s leg is in bad condition.

"It looks like a broken bone, right? Chunsheng, what did you do yesterday? Could it be that your father broke it by kicking you?"

Wasn’t it dad who kicked him?

At that time, he was fighting with all his might, just trying to protect his sister. When his father kicked him, he actually didn't feel any pain.

Later, his grandfather decided to break up the relationship between them. He was so anxious that he ignored the pain in his legs.

Not only did his legs hurt, his whole body hurt, and it was so painful that he was numb.

In fact, even now, my legs feel numb and the pain is dull, but not unbearable.

He didn't know that this was what made the situation even more serious.

"Ah, what happened to his leg? Sanzhu is so cruel. How could he kill a child?"

"If he wasn't cruel, would these children be able to break off relations with him?"

"That's right. How can a person abandon his parents unless he is forced into a desperate situation?"

"It's pitiful. He was such a good child before he was born. He would talk to people whenever they met him, and he would smile when they talked. He was such a lovely child. Now look at him being tortured."

"Hey! If you ask me, a stepmother is a stepfather. When Chunsheng's biological mother was alive, Sanzhu never treated the child like this."

The villagers were talking about it.

There are some who sympathize, and some who are just here to watch the fun.

Li 녊 frowned and looked at it for a long time, then pressed his leg with his hand. He shook his head and said:

"I'm afraid the doctor in town can't help. You have to go to the county for your leg. Wu Ya, go again and ask your brother Fuquan to bring the ox cart over."

Hearing this, Song Jinxiu breathed a sigh of relief.

Going to the county town by ox cart is much faster than pulling a handcart.

Soon, Song Fuquan came over in a ox cart, knowing that he was taking Chunsheng to see a doctor for his leg, and he even laid a straw mat on the cart.

Everyone worked together to lift Chunsheng into the car.

Song Jinxiu glanced at her sister and younger brother.

My sister is fine, my brother...

The child's eyes were filled with fear and anxiety.

The two children were at home, the yard was still desolate, and there were scorpions and poisonous insects in the house. She was really worried.

Never mind. There’s enough space on the oxcart. Let’s all go together.

Li groped from his sleeve and pulled out an ounce of silver.

"Chunsheng, take this money. It may not be enough, but take care of your legs first. As for the rest, Grandpa will find a way."

Song Chunsheng declined with tears in his eyes: "Grandpa Li, I know you are good to us, but I don't want this silver. I want ten copper coins."

He wanted to say "silver". Aren't silver bowls, silver balls and silver chopsticks all money? But he couldn't say that. In the end, he said he had ten copper coins.

"Silly Chunsheng, what can you do with ten copper coins, kid?"

Grandpa Li felt sad when he heard the ten copper coins, so he stuffed the silver into his arms. Then he waved his hand and told his grandson to drive away quickly.

If he doesn't leave now, he will cry.

"Ah, ah, poor child."

Li didn't cry, but the woman behind him who saw all this couldn't help crying.

Ten copper coins are all the belongings of these children, right?

"Damn Sanzhu, he's not worthy of being a human being after treating his son like this."

"Well, maybe Sanzhu was just too hot-tempered and didn't know how to control his strength."

The person who was speaking was Song Shulin, the nephew of Song Dashi and the cousin of Song Sanzhu.

Their family went to the market yesterday. When they returned home, they were shocked to hear that Chunsheng and his siblings had broken off relations with their family and left.

I wanted to go to my uncle's house to ask what was going on. There's a person in this family who is no longer related. It would be shameful for them, right?

But as soon as I arrived at my uncle's door, I heard my aunt's loud cursing voice inside.

They scolded Chunsheng as an ungrateful person who could never be tamed, they scolded Sanya as a jinx who was unwanted by everyone, and they scolded Sanzhu, asking why he didn't kill that disgraceful person.

From the looks of it, he was very angry because he didn't sell San Ya and lost the income, so he started scolding whoever he caught in the yard.
