Chapter 96 No One Can Say It
Zhang Yuxiu and his three siblings surrounded him with excitement and excited expressions. It’s great that the family finally has money, so there is no need to worry about going hungry in the future!
"I'll hide the money now." Li Hongxiang wrapped the silver in cloth as usual, then put it in a jar, and stuffed it under the bed.
Su Jinse frowned slightly: "Dad, I don't think it's safe to hide the money under the bed."
It seems that every household in this era hides money under the bed. If a thief really comes, the first thing is to look for it under the bed.
Moreover, the fact that my father went to the county to sell snails and lions to earn money will soon spread to the old house. Who knows if they will have any troubles?
"Where can you hide?" Li Hongxiang and Zhang Tiezhu were confused. Unexpectedly, Su Jinse said that the bed was not safe.
Su Jinse looked at the simple and dilapidated house, and it disappeared at first glance. The house was barely covered. She really didn't know where to hide it, so she had to say, "Dad, let's lock the house in the future."
"Sure, I really have to lock it up." Zhang Tiezhu nodded in agreement. The family had money, but no one came in as before when the gate of the courtyard was open.
Not afraid of ten thousand, just fear of what if.
If there is really a thief, he will cry without even crying.
At this time, Li Hongxiang also wanted to ask a question. She swept away her previous happiness and showed a sad look on her face: "Husband, if someone from the old house comes to ask, what should we do with this prescription?"
"I can't say it! I signed an agreement with Manager Lu, so I can't leak it at all. Otherwise, Manager Lu will not only ask us for money from the prescription, but also ask us double compensation! My wife, this matter is so big that no one can ask. At most, we can only teach them how to cut snail lion shells and how to snail lions. We can't say anything else." Zhang Tiezhu's face suddenly became solemn.
When he heard that the prescription was leaked, Manager Lu not only asked them to recover eight taels of silver, but also had to pay double compensation. Li Hongxiang was frightened and immediately covered her mouth and sweared: "Husband, don't worry! I will definitely not leak it! No one will tell you!"
Zhang Tiezhu looked at his three children again, and Zhang Yuxiu and the other two immediately said, "Dad, don't worry, we won't say anything even if we beat him to death!"
Zhang Tiezhu nodded with satisfaction: "Well, we must be honest in our lives. Manager Lu is good to us and generous to us. The price he gives is fair. We can't let others down. I won't go to the county to sell snail lions in the future."
Although Manager Lu just said that he could not sell snails in the east of the city, he would not sell snails in other places, so as not to affect the business of Manxianglou.
"Okay. If you don't sell it, you must be honest in life." Li Hongxiang nodded.
She was very content with these eight taels of silver.
"Wife, I brought this for you." Zhang Tiezhu took out the red rope he bought from his arms. "I see that many young ladies in the county use this hair tray, which looks so beautiful. Wife, you will definitely look good with this hair tomorrow."
Li Hongxiang was delighted, and two shy words appeared on her face immediately. She reached out and poked him, "The children are all here, look at what you said."
"Dad is right, mom is really good-looking." Su Jinse said sweetly.
Although they are all from the countryside, Li Hongxiang's facial features are pretty good and very pretty. She just does farm work for many years and her skin is a little dark.
If you keep it white, you won't be ugly at all.
