“Ah! The Xiao Family’s wife, really, there’s no need to give more…” Aunt Zhang wanted to call out to her, but she had already walked away,
Auntie Hua, holding the weighed half-bag of flour, said on the side, “The Zhang Family, villagers say that Su Qingyue is a thief and has a wicked heart, but I think she’s not bad.”
“That’s just a rumor.” Aunt Zhang, although only received one cent more from others, still felt indebted, “Su Qingyue is quite a nice person. She was originally a mute and not worth much. After she became deaf, she was even less valuable. But now she is neither deaf nor mute, and quite clever. The town’s saying that she stole steamed buns might not be true. She isn’t greedy at all. This morning, I wanted to give her fifty copper coins, but she refused to take even one.”
Su Qingyue didn’t hear Aunt Zhang praising her like this. If she had, she would definitely say she is actually very greedy, very greedy indeed!
Auntie Hua also looked admiring, “Nowadays, the Xiao family is so poor… fifty copper coins are not a small amount, she didn’t even want it. Su Qingyue really has a backbone.”
“Isn’t it? Qian Duotian’s wife Qian Zhangshi and other old women are dying of envy, wishing the fifty copper coins were given to them.”
“Don’t bother with those greedy old women.”
“The Xiao family’s three men are also good. They were forced to sell the house but refused to sell their wife. They are truly three good men. If it were other men, they would have sold their wives long ago. Su Qingyue, despite being capable, still doesn’t look good.”
“Us women, just have a hard life, and which man doesn’t like beautiful women…”
“Alright. Hua family, I’ve collected the flour money from you too.” Aunt Zhang said, “I’m going to go inside and weigh another three jin of flour, then I have to go to the field to dig up five jin of ginger to send to the Xiao Family. I’ll be busy first. Su Qingyue and the Xiao family’s men have backbone and don’t accept my help, so I’ll just weigh an extra half jin of flour.”
“Zhang Family, you’re really a good person.”
“I’m not helping everyone. Granny Sun, Qan Zhangshi, Liu Xianglian family’s snobbish people, even if they stick money to me, I won’t help…”
“The Xiao family’s wife said there’s no dinner tonight, so you’d better hurry. You go ahead and get busy.”
Su Qingyue, with her elbow holding the basket, walked quickly towards the
Xiao Family and found that many people were heading in the same direction.
“Yo! The Xiao Family’s wife, you’re just going home now? It’s already dark…”Qian Zhangshi saw her and hurriedly greeted her.
“Something held me up.” She walked fast, and many people on the road were
surprised that she was just returning.
From a distance, she saw many people standing in the Xiao Family’s courtyard, and more people coming.
Without a doubt, these people were here to watch the excitement.
“Xiao Yishan, don’t say I didn’t give you a chance! It’s nightfall now, and if you can’t come up with the five taels of silver, hand over the house deed!” Granny Sun’s loud voice could be heard from far away.
“Wait a little longer.” Xiao Yishan’s calm voice came from the house.
“Still waiting!” Granny Sun was so angry that she stomped her feet, “Do you, the Xiao Family, not keep your word? It was agreed this morning that you would pay back the five taels, and if you couldn’t give the money, you would hand over the house deed. How can Xiao Family’s words be like fart!”
Zhou Fuquan was also at the scene, and he persuaded, “Second Brother Xiao said to wait. You just wait a little more.”
“I’ve been waiting for a long time!” Granny Sun stood at the door of the Xiao Family’s master bedroom, pointing at the two men lying on the master bedroom’s bed and scolding, “You two are not men, you go back on your words.. With five taels, even if you had another ten days you wouldn’t be able to raise it!”
