"Qiao'er is right. The matters between these big shots are not something ordinary people like us can get involved in. If you are not careful, you may end up being executed."
"But why do you want to collect that medicinal material again?"
Su Qiao was silent for a moment. "Grandpa, you are not talking about the other person's temperament... I just don't want to annoy the other person."
In fact, Su Qiao still has some concerns.
If they don't take anything, the other party will inevitably think that they are deliberately showing integrity, deliberately trying to attract the other party's attention, and having ambitions to cling to them.
If you take the money, there is no guarantee that the other party will think that Old Su Family people are short-sighted and profit-seeking, and will be despised and not take it to heart at all.
At such a critical moment, if no attention is paid to her, her grandfather, as the only steward who survived Coal Mine, will definitely be targeted by some people.
For example, the county magistrate County Magistrate above, and for example, several other family members who died in that Coal Mine.
If they can become stewards, their families and the yamen are more or less related to each other.
In short, Old Su Family will be very troublesome if it is clear now.
Regarding the matter of receiving gifts, the old man was actually in a dilemma.
After hearing what my granddaughter said, I felt that it did make sense.
"I, Qiao'er, have really grown up. I think about the overall situation and have a long-term vision. I am not blinded by the small profits in front of me.
Not bad! Very good! If you were a boy..."
After a pause, the old man glanced at his eldest son who was still sulking over the one hundred taels of silver, and sighed with some pity, "Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore."
Su Huai'an, who didn't understand much, looked at his elder brother and then at his father. He was worried and couldn't help but ask, "Dad, can we go out?"
"The wheat in the fields is ripe, and people in the village have already started harvesting it. We have to hurry up to finish harvesting the wheat and plant corn in a tight time. It is also time for the two acres of paddy fields to sprout seedlings."
Hearing the word 'yangmiao', Su Qiao swallowed.
She wants to eat rice.
She is used to eating rice, but she is really not used to eating steamed buns, gnocchi, corn grits and the like.
Because Willow Tree Village is located at the junction of north and south, the temperature is pleasant. Some people grow wheat and sweet potatoes, while others grow rice and peanuts.
The eating habits are also combined between the north and the south. Some people like to eat noodles, steamed buns, and pancakes, while others like to eat rice.
Old Su Family is eight acres of corn fields and two acres of rice fields.
The old man nodded. "You can go out now, but if others ask, don't say anything."
"It's just right. Now that I'm gone, our whole family will go to the fields to harvest wheat in two days."
As he said that, he looked at the injury on Su Qiao's right arm. "Qiao'er Forget it, stay at home and recuperate for a few days."
"Then I'll be responsible for cooking!"
The whole family had to go to the fields, and Su Qiao was too embarrassed to sit and wait for food.
Besides, she still had to dig grass and hunt in the mountains.
Zhou Lihua quietly pinched her shoulder from behind. "How can that be done? You are still sick, but Physician Li said you need to stay in bed.
And these hands should not be touched with water, otherwise, the scars left will be deeper, and it will be a mother's job to cook. "
Zhou Lihua spoke righteously, patted his chest and continued, "Father, mother, I stay at home to cook, and I can also look after Danie."
The old lady opened her mouth to scold.
The old man gave her a hand and nodded first. "That's okay."
"Qiao'er, I will find a solution for the wounds on your hands and the medicinal materials to remove the scars."
Although it is in the countryside and there are not so many things to pay attention to, it is always bad for a girl to have scars on her body.
