Chapter 156 This lie is almost untrue

The sky was dark and snow could fall at any time. Mr. Gu was worried that Gu Qing would be alone, so he locked the door and followed Gu Qing and the two of them quickly walked towards Li Zheng's house.

In the Li Zheng family, only Li Zheng and his wife sit at home around the stove. The other adults either work in the workshops or go up to the mountains to chop wood. The children study in the village school.

"Why are you and your grandson here in this cold weather?" Li Zheng saw the two people looking heavy, and his heart skipped a beat. Could it be that something happened again?

"Aunt Li Zheng must also think it's very cold today!" Gu Qing was not polite as she was familiar with Li Zheng. She dragged two stools and pulled Mr. Gu to sit down around the stove: "I guess we are afraid

We’re going to encounter a big snowstorm!”

"What⊙⊙?" Li Zheng narrowed his eyes slightly and asked doubtfully: "Snow disaster?"

"The sky is so dark, and the clouds are dark and low. You don't know this, right?" Gu Qing rubbed her hands, "Can it be rain falling on such a cold day?"

Li Zheng laughed and said, "If it snows, let it snow. It's not a big deal. What year doesn't snow a little? Besides, auspicious snow heralds a good year. This is a good thing!"

"What if the low temperature continues and the heavy snow continues for seven or eight days?" Gu Qing looked up at the beams, "Can the beams of your home hold up?"

"If the beams can't hold up, just use a rake to tear them down!" Li Zheng said with a smile: "It's not a big deal, Madam Gu, don't be afraid. The snow has been quite heavy in the past years, and I haven't heard of any house whose roof has been damaged.

It was crushed by snow.

But since Mrs. Gu takes it seriously, I will send someone to notify everyone. Every family should prepare more dry firewood. When it snows, they should frequently scrape the snow on the roof. If it cannot be raked, they will light a fire in the house. The house will be warm.

The roof can’t keep snow!”

Brushing off the roof frequently and setting fire to melt the snow are indeed solutions. Sometimes we have to believe in the wisdom of the ancients, "Since Aunt Li Zheng has a countermeasure, I will go back first."

"You are confused!" Zheng Qian quietly pointed at Yu An: "My sister-in-law bought that bathtub for my third brother's leg treatment, which emptied all the family's money. We are still living and eating here, and the food is still like this.

So good, how can you collect cash again? If outsiders know about it, they will poke us in the back!"

While the two were talking, snowflakes as big as cotton fell from the sky and hit their heads, making them both shiver from the cold.

"No way, you can't chase? We all live in the same house." Zheng Qian put a piece of chicken into the Yuyin bowl, and gave Yu An a bowl of golden chicken soup, and continued to whisper: "Listen to me, finish eating

If you want to eat, just give the money back to your sister-in-law. If your sister-in-law refuses to take it, you can take one hundred taels, and no more."

"Okay!" Mr. Gu felt warm in his heart when he heard what Gu Qing said. Among the grandchildren, the eldest granddaughter is the most considerate!

There was Yu An, a patient at home, and Mr. Gu was here, so we had a very sumptuous lunch. A stewed old hen with ginseng and red dates. The ginseng and red dates were all bought in the mall, and they were all artificially grown at low prices.

Mr. Gu has also made a lot of money by raising cows for Gu Qing in the past few months. Especially in the second month, Gu Qing saw that they had to get up early in the morning to milk the cows and had to sleep in the cowshed at night. The salary was from fifteen

Two rose directly to twenty-five taels.

The sweet and sour short ribs are my family's favorite. They say you eat what you eat, so a pot of braised pork ribs and the last dish of stir-fried cabbage are indispensable.

Even Sun, the most talkative person, shut up at this time and thought about Gu Qing's kindness every day.

Mr. Gu sent Gu Qing all the way to the door of his house: "It's cold. Go back and rest early. Look at your pale face. I'll send you the two hens that laid eggs to recuperate..."

"Grandpa, it's snowing so hard. Come into the house with me. It's freezing cold and the snowy roads are slippery. I'm really worried about you going back alone. When the snow stops later, I'll have someone take you off. Go back." Mr. Gu will be sixty years old after the Chinese New Year. It would be a serious fall.

Zheng Qian and Yu Yin murmured in a low voice: "The third brother is so lucky. We are all following the third brother and taking advantage of it."

Yu Yin nodded, "My sister-in-law said that the money was used to buy a few tea trees. I couldn't shirk it, so I had to accept it. What's wrong?"

"The medicine given by the owner of the house is naturally good and the effect is remarkable. My legs that were originally painful no longer hurt after soaking them."

Yuyin replied in a low voice: "Yes, I am really blessed to have followed my third brother here this time. Yesterday, I dug up some bitter tea trees from the mountain. My sister-in-law asked me if there were any more tea trees on the mountain. I said yes. , my sister-in-law left with the tea tree and came back and gave me a full thousand taels of silver notes. One thousand taels, I have never seen so much silver in my long life!"

Gu Qing's face got a little hot when she heard the two whispering. She sold the tea tree to the mall for ten thousand taels. She originally wanted to be a profiteer for fifty-fifty, but she was afraid that she couldn't explain clearly, and she was even more afraid that someone who knew the news would go up the mountain to dig up the whole tea tree overnight. The price starts from the ground up.

On the way, Mr. Gu was afraid that Gu Qing would be emotional, so he advised: "Granddaughter, I know you are doing it for the good of the village. She also has her own considerations. In previous years, when the snow in our Gujia Village was the thickest, it would only reach the knees, but if this is true, It's been snowing heavily for seven or eight days in a row like you said. I think we still need to take some precautionary measures, otherwise the roof will really collapse and we won't freeze to death in this cold weather, okay."

In just a few months, dozens of taels of silver have been saved in the old house. Now that the family has money, food and other things have followed suit. Now that he sees his eldest granddaughter eating these things, Mr. Gu is not as restrained as before. He The oldest person took the lead in picking up a piece of sweet and sour short ribs, and then everyone started using their chopsticks.

"Oh, I, I really didn't think too much about it. My sister-in-law insisted on giving it to me. She stuffed the banknote into my hand and left... I couldn't help it," Yu Yin said.

"Don't just drink soup, eat meat too!" Gu Qing picked up a chicken leg and put it into Yu An's bowl: "I took a medicinal bath today. How do you feel? Is it better?"

After careful consideration, she gave a thousand taels. Who knew that these two people were really honest. They gave so many banknotes and still wanted to return them. If they really returned them, she wouldn't mind arranging a long-term earning business for them.

Originally, he never thought that his legs would heal. He thought it would be good to be alive. Unexpectedly, after today’s medicinal bath, his legs miraculously stopped hurting. Sure enough, it was something worth twenty thousand taels. The effect was worthy of the price. .

Zheng Qian looked up at Yu Yin with a serious expression, "Did you accept all the banknotes?"

There are four dishes, but the portions are sufficient. Two chickens are killed, just because one is not enough.

It's just that on the first day he came back, the bathtub that can cure diseases arrived the next day. Isn't it a coincidence? Or was it planned by the owner of the bathtub in the first place?

Yu An is not a person who likes to hide things. After the meal, he immediately chased Gu Qing and asked the questions in his mind.

"A few days ago, I heard from my former friend that there was a strange thing that could heal people and kill people. When I heard about such a good thing, how could I miss it? You just needed it again, so I sent someone to spread the word overnight, so I bought it. Come down!" What a risk, this lie almost failed to come true!
