Chapter 159 Two Sticks(1/2)
At the end of September of the lunar calendar, the weather in the capital was already very cold.
The leaves on the willow tree seemed to smell the smell of early winter, and they all turned from green to yellow, broke away from the bonds of the branches, and circled and flew to the ground.
If this scene falls into the eyes of the poet, it may turn into a poignant poem.
But falling into the hearts of the working people is an irritable complaint, because there is another job of sweeping away fallen leaves.
Aunt Guan Er got up early in the morning, poured the urine basin and cooked breakfast, and then swept the fallen leaves of the big willow tree at the door. After working hard, her face was sweating.
As a result, when I returned to the yard, I saw that my son had not yet gotten up!
"Dasheng, why haven't you got up yet? You won't go to work today?"
A lazy voice came from the side room: "Mom, I have a headache today and I will take a day off."
Aunt Guan Er, who had been busy all morning, was so angry that she immediately scolded: "Toes hurt today, pig's waist hurt yesterday, and your diarrhea the day before yesterday will be deducted all your salary this month!"
"Where can you deduct the light?" The voice in the side room was not impatient at all: "As long as you attend five days a month, you can get thirteen yuan, which is equivalent to two yuan seven yuan a day.
Manqin is twenty-eight-five, and it’s less than one yuan. Why do you think I’m doing Manqin?”
"You're doing it well now? How did you give me a thirteen-point score for me when I was in high school? A bastard thing?"
Aunt Guan Er cursed at the side room, but after hearing her scolding for more than 20 years, her own son was already immune and did not delay her laziness at all.
Aunt Guan Er scolded for two minutes before she was depressed.
When I returned to the main house, I saw that the old man had finished his breakfast, so I made a pot of flower tea and started to suck it slowly.
Aunt Guan Er suddenly found a partner to vent her anger.
"I said Guan Ciying, you can teach your son some food and drink all day long. Can you teach your son some? Dasheng has caused you to be bad,"
"Look at his big man, he finally made him take over your class, but suddenly became a lazy man and couldn't find a wife in the future. How could I go to see my parents-in-law!"
Guan Ciying looked at her wife who was rushing to tears and calmly drank half of the tea bowl of jasmine.
"What's the difficulty of finding a wife? Yesterday, my fourth sister, didn't you tell Dasheng about your family? If you want to, we will be able to hold our grandson next year."
"I don't want to!" Aunt Guan Er was even more angry: "I said something good about the marriage to us, but the result was a big girl in the west mountain, three younger brothers and two younger sisters. She was for our family's money!"
"If we marry into the house in the future and pull things to our parents' house every day, can we stand the troubles of this little money?"
Aunt Guan Er cursed for a long time, but she didn't realize that the "target of struggle" had been transferred from her son to her fourth sister.
Uncle Guan Er took a sip of flower tea proudly, squinted his eyes and shook his legs, leisurely.
An old lady, no matter how powerful she is, she can still play a man? A joke!
But the next moment, Guan Er asked in a low voice: "I said Ciying, do you think that teapot is really worth thousands of dollars?"
Guan Ciying smiled contemptuously and said, "How can this thing be accurate? Some people like old objects, but even Wan'er-eight thousand yuan, he thinks it's cheap. Some people don't know the goods, and they give them to him for free and think that giving them old things is to eliminate people!"
"Are we going to be higher a few days ago? Dasheng asked for the price at that time, and you didn't stop him. He got angry and left, and pointed at the money to the child and said that he was a wife!"
Aunt Guan Er was a little anxious. Although she disliked the girl who came here "for money", if you don't have money at home, then Guan Dasheng's virtue, who would be willing to marry him?
But Guan Ciying smiled and said, "Don't worry, he will come back."
""
"You two are really a pair of dog-tempered men," said Guan Er, "I think everyone in the world has to beg you.
You are not satisfied with buying a set of broken teapots for a few thousand dollars. I was blind when I first married into your family."
“Tu tu tu tu tu ~”
"The second brother and sister are all at home!"
As soon as Aunt Guan Er cursed a few times, someone knocked on the gate of the yard, and then someone came straight into the yard.
The couple looked out and saw that the person came was an old and a young man. It turned out to be Guan Ciying's elder brother Guan Cihui, and his son Guan Dacheng.
Guan Ciying, who was originally sitting in a stable chair, immediately stood up.
"Brother, come here! What are you going to get! Get off quickly, are you here by the morning bus?"
"The donkey cart in the village came to the city to deliver straw, so we came over to take a look. I just collected some mung beans and red beans in the field. I will give you some to taste."
Guan Ciying greeted Guan Cihui and sat down, poured tea and greeted each other intimately.
However, Aunt Guan Er drooped her face, looked at the small pocket on Guan Dacheng's back with disgust, and curled her lips.
Just a few kilograms of red beans and mung beans, which is worthwhile to come from outside the city? I’m afraid I’m not here to borrow money again!
But then, Boss Guan took out a lot of unity and put it on the table, which surprised Aunt Guan Er very much.
"Brother, what are you doing?" Mr. Guan Er said with a dark face: "Didn't I say I don't want that money? If you hadn't carried two bags of food in 1961, our family of three would have starved to death."
Aunt Guan Er stamped her feet in a hurry, but she didn't dare to go over and put the money away directly.
Although she usually scolds her son and husband at home, if Guan Ciying really gets angry, she will just shut the door and it will be a real blow!
"Second, I'm not here to pay back the money," Mr. Guan waved his hand and said, "I'm here to share the money with you."
Mr. Guan Er said in confusion: "Die? What is the money?"
Boss Guan looked at his younger brother and said, "A few days ago, a man from Helan came to our area to collect antiques and happened to ask me about it.
I sold a snuff bottle passed down from my ancestors, a total of 16. The two brothers have 21 yuan to add 5 yuan, and you should be given 80 yuan."
Aunt Guan Er's eyelids twitched, and she had a very bad premonition in her heart.
Sure enough, Boss Sui Guan asked casually: "Second, have you ever encountered antiques recently?"
Aunt Guan Er felt sorry for her.
[Okay, Boss Guan, I heard Feng'er, I'm here to share our property! You brothers have already separated, but now they are going to share the money? Give us eighty dollars back, bah~]
But Mr. Guan Er’s focus was not the same as Mrs. Guan Er. He asked Mr. Guan in surprise: “Brother, how did you know that someone has come to me?”
Boss Guan looked at Guan Ciying calmly and said calmly: "It was the Helan people who said it,
They were chatting with me at that time. After knowing that my surname was Guan, they said that Kitagō also had a surname Guan and had good things in their hands. I thought that Kitagō's surname Guan wasn't it you?"
"His uncle has nothing to do," said Guan Er quickly, "When you brothers split up, there are only a few things. Where are there any good things in our family?"
“Haha~”
Boss Guan glanced at Aunt Guan Er, picked up the tea bowl and stopped talking.
But Mr. Guan Er said three words coldly to his wife.
"Get out!"
""
The anger in Aunt Guan Er's heart suddenly became like a spark splashed with water, and it was extinguished in an instant.
She and Guan Ciying have been together for so many years, but they didn’t know that the man was angry and it was a big fire.
Aunt Guan Er lowered her head and left the main house, and the door behind her closed with a slam.
She turned around anxiously, turned her head and entered her son's side room.
"Dasheng, get up quickly, your poor uncle is coming to divide our antiques."
.....
In the main house, Guan Ciying asked Guan Cihui cautiously: "Brother, do you think those people found me and where you went?"
Guan Cihui shook her head slowly and said, "I can't see that I took a snuff bottle and tried them. I saw that they were not much better than the stick.
And he is stingy and doesn't look like a big dealer, so I've been through those things, and you ask if it's a coincidence."
"That might be a coincidence," Guan Ciying breathed a sigh of relief. "There are indeed several groups of people coming to me these days. Some people come from the south and some people from Helan. They are all from one group after another, so it's not uncommon to spread gossip."
Boss Guan thought for a long time before nodding.
His second brother is not a confused person. If there is any disturbance, it is impossible for him to not be able to realize it at all.
The two of them drank tea for a while, and Mr. Guan Er suddenly said, "Brother, can you come back if you say Mr. Beile?"
Boss Guan didn't say anything, slowly finished the tea, and then said lightly: "Wait!"
"Dad, dad, please open the door!"
As soon as the two brothers discussed the matter inside the house, they heard Mr. Guan Er's son slamming the door outside.
The corners of Mr. Guan's mouth curled up, and he seemed to be smiling, but Mr. Guan Er had a dark face.
He opened the door and asked his son Lengran: "You know now? Are you going to come over to pay my respects?"
""
Looking at the cold father, Guan Dasheng had a lot of words back and could only say embarrassedly: "I'm not what I heard that my uncle has come. I thought I must have been eating before I could eat."
"Hmph, you two are also confused," Guan Ciying glanced at the old woman and said in a deep voice: "No matter how much the old item is sold, it is half as much as your uncle.
Don't be dissatisfied, and don't get rid of the monkey with me, or be careful that I will take you two together."
""
Guan Dasheng and Guan Er were both confused. They really didn't understand why Guan Ciying, who had always been cynical, suddenly felt so resentful.
