Chapter 85 Everyone Takes the Money

"You blind man, what are you shouting for? That's your own son..." Liu Caiyun walked over and cursed.

"What you did is not human, and you will be punished sooner or later." Zhou Guishui replied with eyes that lacked any luster.

"You damn old man, go to bed and sleep in your own bed." After saying that, Liu Caiyun went to her own bed.

Since Zhou Guishui became blind, Liu Caiyun has not slept with him. Although they live in the same room, the couple has slept in separate beds for several years. Not for other reasons, but because that year, not only the eyes were injured, but also the man.

Because Zhou Guishui couldn't handle the thing, Liu Caiyun got in touch with the village chief Zhou Bao.

The next morning, Tuesday Gou took Wang Xiangmei home. Originally, Er Gou wanted to keep Wang Xiangmei under observation in the hospital for a few more days, but Wang Xiangmei refused to stay in the hospital longer, so Er Gou had to take her back.

After lunch, Ergou took the money and went to the home of the village chief Zhou Bao.

"Uncle Sanbao." He stood at the door and shouted, and Ergou walked in.

"Two, two, Ergou, you, are you here?" Xie Yinhua stuttered when she saw Ergou enter the house, and her face was very unnatural. It seemed that she was very nervous after eating secretly.

"Auntie, what's wrong with you? Why are you so nervous?" Ergou thought that Xie Yinhua was nervous because she caused everyone diarrhea while cooking, so he asked pretending to be relaxed.

"No, I'm not nervous, not nervous at all. Ergou, you sit down, sit down for a while, and I'll call Sanbao." After saying that, Xie Yinhua ran into the kitchen at the back of the house through the back door as if he was running away.

How strange! What happened to Aunt Yinghua today?

Ergou was puzzled. In the past, when he came to her house, this overly sensitive aunt always tried to tease him a few times. Today was very abnormal. He didn't blame her for everyone's diarrhea, and even mentioned it in front of her.

I've never mentioned it before, why is this happening?

"Er Gou, you're back." Just as he was thinking about this, Zhou Bao walked in from behind.

"Uncle Sanbao, are you okay?"

"It's okay, you're awesome, you're in great shape." As he spoke, he patted his chest. Then he walked to a chair opposite Ergou and sat down.

"Er Gou, what are your plans?" Zhou Bao asked immediately after sitting down.

"Uncle Sanbao, can you tell me if we can start picking tomorrow?"

"Okay, why not? Everyone is waiting to finish picking and get paid as soon as possible."

The honest people in the mountain village are not getting better yet they insist on saying that they are not getting better. Just today during the day, several people came to inquire and asked when Zhou Bao could continue picking. Because Ergou was not at home, Zhou Bao

I don't dare to make my own decisions.

"Oh, that's good. Let's do this. Uncle Sanbao, I'd like to trouble you again. You and I will go to each house together later. I want to collect everyone's medical expenses and lost work expenses, as well as the fruit seller yesterday.

The money will be given to them first, and all the money that should be paid will be paid." Ergou has already communicated with Fengmei about this matter, and Fengmei's opinion is to pay the money that should be paid, which also gives the villagers some confidence in themselves.

, so Ergou did as she said.

When communicating with Feng Mei this time, she seemed to be still worried about Er Gou's behavior last time. When Er Gou asked, she only answered. If Brother Long hadn't been urging her, she might not have wanted to answer.

The dog's words last time hurt Feng Mei, and it turned out that Feng Mei was right, so Er Gou kept apologizing and promised not to lose his temper again in the future, so Feng Mei's tone became a little better.

Hearing that he could take the money, Zhou Bao's mouth was so wide open. Ergou immediately took out 10 bills and threw them to Zhou Bao.

"Uncle Sanbao, take this money, 60 is yours, and the 40 is for my aunt's wages."

"So much..." Although Zhou Zhoubao talked a lot, the money was immediately stuffed into his pocket. According to the current situation in Taohuagou, the maximum salary for a day's work is 15 yuan, and Ergou originally promised to double the salary.

After giving so much at once, Zhou Bao laughed heartily.

"And how many peaches did you have yesterday?" Ergou asked.

"Oh, I've written it down here. Look, mine just weighs 100 pounds. Xiwa's family helped pick it." Zhou Bao took out a notebook and showed it to Ergou while talking.

"Oh, take off the 10 cents you picked. Calculate it as 40 cents per catty. 100 catties is 40. You can take this money." Ergou took out four more bills. Zhou Bao took the bills and put them in his pocket with a smile.

, I felt so happy. Especially the 100 yuan, which came so easily, was the money for 250 kilograms of peaches. However, Ergou was so generous and had his own ideas. He only fed Zhou Bao, and the next few

Only then can you feel more at ease about matters of the day.

Until Er Gou and Zhou Bao left the yard, Xie Yinhua still didn't show up. She hid behind and watched Er Gou secretly, thinking about what happened on the mountain that day. She felt so happy that she couldn't express it.

The money was not distributed until around ten o'clock in the evening. Everyone was very happy to get the money. Especially the widow Yao Shuiyin, who couldn't close her mouth with laughter. She usually got up early and stayed late, so she had to pick it herself and take it to the market.

Selling, excluding fares and other things, the most you can get is more than 3 cents per catty. But this time, the fruit and the money for picking are combined, which is 50 cents per catty, and the money is also delivered to your home. This matter

It was something she never dared to think about before.

At Zhou Shanshan's house, his father was scolding him.

"I've never seen you two mother and son. You were so tired that you picked peaches and they only sold them in town for 35 cents a pound. You could sell them for 5 cents at home and you didn't want them. Damn it. You ate too much...

"With his eyes open without any sparkle, he sat on a chair in the main room and cursed at the mother and son who were whispering in the room.

In fact, Liu Caiyun also regretted it a little. It was self-evident that she felt uncomfortable when she saw people sitting at home collecting money. However, her son Zhou Shanshan firmly disagreed, so she had no choice. Who would she spend her whole life for?

It's not just for this precious son. As long as he is happy, I have to accept it if I work harder and earn less.

After finishing the work, the dog went directly back to Wang Xiangmei's house on Tuesday.
