Chapter 23
The Wan family, the Jiang family and the Peng family have finally saved some money in their hands over the years because of their mother-in-law's tolerance.
After Peng hesitated for a moment, she said, "Mom, please wait."
After saying that, she turned around and went back to her house.
After a while, she came out with a clean earthen pot and handed it into Chen's hand. "Mom, this is the money I have saved by working outside during the leisure time of Erniu over the years. I will give it to you."
you!"
Mr. Jiang was dull. When he saw his second sister-in-law paying the money, he went back to the house, took out his money bag and gave all the money he had saved over the years to Mr. Chen.
Only Wan's ten short and fat fingers were twisted together and she whispered: "Mom, I haven't saved any money..."
Su Wan looked at Wan's somewhat embarrassed look and felt that given Wan's deliciousness and ability to eat, she had to clean it up even if she didn't save any money.
But when Wanshi was talking, her little eyes still looked at the piece of cloth with some disapproval.
Mrs. Chen's big palm, which has been doing farm work all year round, slapped the bundle of cloth, "When any of you came in, I didn't give you any cloth to make new clothes?"
Wan quickly withdrew her gaze, shrunk her already short neck, and said humbly: "Mom, I'm going to work first."
Wan's feet were oiled, so Peng and Jiang must have followed suit.
Mrs. Chen looked at Peng's money jar and Jiang's money bag on the table, and then looked at the small box of silver she was going to give to Su Wan, but she was troubled.
She had already spoken out her words, and Peng and Jiang had already taken out the money to get married, so the money she had planned to give to Su Wan...
Su Wan stretched out her hand to cover the small box containing the silver and pushed it in front of Mrs. Chen, "Mom, you are responsible for the food and clothing in the house. It is useless for me to hold the money. You still keep the money!"
"Sure!" Ms. Chen responded, "Wanya, if you need anything, just tell mom and she will take care of it for you."
"Okay, thank you, mother." Su Wan smiled sweetly.
When Su Wan walked out of the main room, she saw Gu Yuan and three oxen from the Gu family returning carrying a thick piece of wood.
Su Wan walked over and asked softly: "Are you going to start making a waterwheel?"
"Yes!" Gu Yuan nodded, "In this season, apart from corn that can be planted in the fields, only intercropped sweet potato seedlings can be planted. Things in the fields are not very busy.
I don’t know when it will rain next time. I will build the water tanker first. Even if it doesn’t rain, I can still save the crops.”
Su Wan felt that this was also the case. She only had three human rain bombs, and they had all been used up last night. If the drought continued today, she would not be able to help.
"Have you prepared the waterwheel at home and then carried it to the river?" Su Wan asked.
The Gu family's house is still quite far away from the river. Once the waterwheel is completed, it will probably be quite large and its weight will be very solid. I'm afraid it won't be easy to lift it to the river.
Gu Yuan was busy peeling the wood and said, "I plan to dig out the parts at home and then move them to the river to nail them up."
Su Wan was surprised. Gu Yuan was so smart. He was born in this ancient time and had the same express delivery mentality as selling furniture online.
She nodded with deep understanding, "Well, it is indeed a good idea."
As she said that, she glanced towards the kitchen, guessing that it would take a while before dinner could be eaten. She moved closer to Gu Yuan and whispered, "Ayuan, I'm going out for a walk."
The distance was too close, and her warm breath with a touch of daughter's fragrance blew on Gu Yuan's earlobe, and the roots of Gu Yuan's ears instantly turned slightly red.
He put down the bark-peeling tool in his hand, clapped his hands and said, "I'll go with you."
"No..." Before Su Wan could finish her words of rejection, Gu Yuan blocked her mouth, "Yang Hu is a famous scoundrel. You went to find their mother and son alone. It's not good for your reputation."
good."
Su Wan was silent for a moment. It turned out that he had already figured out what she was going to do?
If you can't deceive him, then you can only agree, "Okay, let's go together."
Gu Yuan confessed to his family and went out with Su Wan.
As Su Wan walked, she solemnly told him: "If I get into a fight with their mother and son later, you should hide behind me and I will protect you..."
Gu Yuan:......
Although he is a scholar, he is a grown man!
Moreover, he subconsciously glanced at Su Wan's petite bean sprouts appearance...
Forget it, he'd better not expose her. Anyway, no matter what happens later, he will just stand in front of her and protect her.
only......
