MTL - Entertaining Into Bitterness Drama-Chapter 85 Righteous Way Five
"My disease is almost cured, can I stop taking medicine?" Laijin stared at the medicine.
She was both afraid of hardship and distressed about the money to buy medicine, for fear that after the money for medicine, Mercury would settle the bill with her, let her pay it back, how could she pay it back.
Mercury made her mind clear, and she only said: "You don't need to pay for the medicine. Drink a few more pills, and you'll make money."
Come and think about it, yes! Free medicine, don't drink for nothing, the more she drinks, the more she earns! So she took up the medicine bowl happily, not even afraid of suffering, it felt like drinking sweet water.
Mercury: This IQ is indeed Li Lanzhi's biological daughter.
Laijin, who recovered from her illness, was particularly curious, and chased after her and asked, "So, you don't know me, why did you go to save me?"
For the first time, Mercury had the days of waiting for hot food after coming back, and she didn't say anything. She sat at the table and drank a bowl of hot soup and warmed her hands before answering her lightly: "I always do things as I want, and only do what I want to do, regardless of the cause and effect."
Laijin stuck out his tongue and deliberately said: "When I went out to buy vegetables today, I heard some people gossiping about you, saying that you saved me and came back, not a serious person... Hey sir, are you not angry?"
Mercury could hear the temptation in her words, she wanted to ask if she would lose her in a rage because of these rumors.
You're young and have a big heart.
"My will is not controlled by anyone's thoughts, what I want to do, no one can stop me, what I don't want to do, no one can let me do."
Laijin was stunned for a while, then suddenly sighed like an adult, "Oh, I really want to do this, if I have a lot of money, I can definitely be as straight as you are. !"
Mercury is very clear that the reason why this woman who is greedy for money and never satisfied in the original plot loves money so much is because of her difficult childhood, people who have never experienced poverty, really have no way of understanding people Obsession with money. It is not so much that she is looking for money, it is better to say that she is looking for a stable life and dignity.
The environment in which she grew up made her eager to control her own destiny and become a person who can be looked up to.
In this regard, Mercury felt that she was similar to herself.
"There's nothing wrong with liking money. Although some people think the word money is vulgar, it is actually an essential thing. It can help you out of the current predicament and make people live at least as a person," said Mercury.
Hearing what she said, Laijin was so surprised, her eyes widened when she saw her, "I thought you guys wouldn't be good at talking about money!"
Mercury: "What's not to talk about, if I don't have money, how can I sit here drinking hot soup, eating oily dishes, wearing warm cotton clothes and using charcoal, if I'm hungry It's going to be dead cold, how can I talk to you about money or not."
Laijin's eyes narrowed with a smile, "Hey, so we are all the same!"
Mercury: "It's just that after meeting the needs of life, no amount of money is just an increase in numbers. After people have no worries about eating and drinking, they will start to want to pursue other things, fame or ideals Like, what do you want?"
Laijin said honestly: "I don't know, I just want a lot of money now, and I don't want anything else. Otherwise, when I have a lot of money, let's talk about this again?"
Mercury was just casually chatting, and he didn't say anything, but Laijin suddenly smiled and said: "In this case, can you teach me how to make money? When I make money, I will know the answer. Well!"
Mercury snorted, "Okay."
Laijin: "Huh?" She just said it casually, why did she really agree?
"Are you serious?!" Lai Jin jumped up and asked.
Mercury: "You help me with the work, and I will give you the wages."
Laijin: "Hey, uncle, you are so nice, come, come, you eat this meat, it's delicious!"
Mercury blocked her gallant with a chopstick, "However, you have to satisfy me. For example, in this cooking, the taste of the dishes you make is a bit worse, and I am not satisfied."
Lai Jin: "We all eat like this, why..."
Mercury: "If you can make a dish that pleases me, this will be for you."
She took out a small piece of silver from her sleeve pocket and put it on the table. , "Whatever you say, you can't go back!"
From then on, she has something to do in Jin. She spends more time in the vegetable market every day. Ask those big sisters and aunts how to cook, she doesn't care if someone doesn't pay attention to her, she can yell at people for 300 rounds with her hips on her shoulders, and if she speaks kindly, she coaxes people with a sweet mouth Excited.
Mercury doesn't care about her very much, and Laijin is not a temperament that needs to be managed by others.
"I want to go to a restaurant to learn cooking, what do you think?" Lai Jin, who failed to get a good word for mercury after many attempts, couldn't help but mention it to her.
Mercury: "Yes."
Laijin's eyes hinted: "But people won't want me."
Mercury: "Oh."
If Laijin had a tail, he would have shaken it now, and graciously brought tea and water: "Look, you are so much better than me, or you can find a way for me to send me there. If I earn wages in a restaurant, how will I share it with you?" She was very proud of the method she had thought of, she could learn the craft and make money, and when she learned the craft, she could also earn mercury silver!
Mercury looked at her with a half-smile, but still agreed.
Most restaurants would not accept such a female doll as an apprentice, but Mercury found a small restaurant with a cook, gave money and negotiated with people, and arranged the money to come in.
"Starting today, let's make good money." Mercury brought Laijin to the restaurant, no matter if she could do it well or not. Laijin's temperament, she has been observing carefully in the past two months, she believes that she will seize this opportunity.
Many times, if you don't try to seize the opportunity, it is useless to help others. Quicksilver is willing to give her a chance to help her escape the fate of death in the original plot, but everything will not be arranged for her.
"What? Why do you still need to learn to write and read?" Lai Jin scratched his arm and was not happy, and did not dare to offend his parents, he just muttered: "No one else can, why am I? It's useless to know this, it's a waste of time."
Mercury replied simply: "Okay, then I won't teach." It seems that the person who mentioned this is not her at all, and she has no intention of persuading.
In the evening, when Mercury returned from work, he saw that Laijin had tried his best to prepare the meals.
"Hey, hey, I thought about it for a while, and I think it is necessary to recognize words. You are kind, and I can't know what's wrong, so you still teach me to write, right?" Where did he find a bottle of wine and poured her a glass.
Mercury refused to agree easily, and said calmly: "Don't you want to learn, I just happen to be busy, I just said casually before, forget it."
Lai Jin felt even more regretful, felt that he had missed the opportunity, he bowed his hands again, and babbled and exaggerated, and finally coaxed Mercury to agree.
Mercury: "Let's talk about it first, if you can't learn anything, I won't teach it, I'm too lazy to bother about it."
Lai Jin: "Learn to learn! I will definitely study hard!"
know to cherish.
With Laijin by her side, in addition to having a more lively life and not being bored before, there is another advantage that Mr. Tian no longer looks at her with the kind of eyes he sees at his son-in-law. There is also a downside, that is, the little shopkeeper and they all teased her. This is because they picked up a daughter for nothing. They said that they picked up a little daughter-in-law and brought her back. Later, they came to see her teach the children to write and send her to learn to cook. Art, slowly changed his mouth.
Channeling, it is simply stocking, men and children are like this.
There are often some gossip, Mercury doesn't care, and Laijin doesn't care, because she knows that Mercury is a woman.
When she found out, she didn't make a statement, and she carefully concealed it from her. Mercury's body occasionally had severe dysmenorrhea, and the used menstrual belt was not washed, and Laijin had silently washed her and put it away.
They have always had a tacit agreement not to mention this matter, but Lai Jin was only after knowing that she was a woman, and only boldly and relaxedly approached her-because she grew up in that kind of place, naturally There is a kind of vigilance against men. Mercury is a woman and she feels reassured. She no longer worries that Mercury is good to her because she has a bad heart.
Mercury always listened to her talk about wanting to buy nice clothes, hairpins and bracelets, this and that, but she didn't see her actually buying it in the past few days.
"Why, I don't buy it when I have money, why is it so stingy?" Mercury joked with her.
Who knew Lai Jin gave her a look, and said mysteriously, "I have other uses for that money."
What?
Even Mercury didn't expect it to be used to invite her to dinner. Laijin, a stingy money fan, even found a quite famous restaurant to invite her for a meal before the Chinese New Year. Although she only ordered two dishes, she was willing to spend the money on her and ordered Mercury to eat a meal. shock.
"Although I am young, I am not a fool. I will remember your kindness to me. It happened to be the New Year, I invited you to dinner, and thank you for taking care of me these days. No one has ever treated me so well in my life." Lai Jin poured a glass of wine and held it up to her, "You even taught me to read, you are my teacher, I will toast the teacher!"
After saying that, I drank it with pride. The posture is very Jianghu, but it's funny to be out of breath.
"Cough cough, cough, why is it so spicy and unpleasant to drink!" Laijin is both disgusted and painful, such unpleasant things are still so expensive, if I knew she would stop drinking and go directly Isn't the tea very good and cheap.
"I don't know how to drink." Mercury took a sip of wine and beckoned someone to bring rice wine, "You can drink this if you want."
Laijin: "...I don't want to pay for this rice wine?" The things here are so expensive, she can't pay!
Mercury: "I'll pay for this."
Lai Jin drank it with peace of mind, and probably insisted that if you drink, you earn, she drank a small bottle of rice wine by herself.
Mercury didn't expect that this kind of rice wine with low sweetness could make people drunk. After she brought the drunk girl back, Laijin jumped all over the room, like a The ball never stopped.
Mercury was about to wash and sleep, Laijin ran over, hugged her arm, and looked up at her: "Mom, are you my mother? You tell me the truth, who are you? Not my mother?"
Mercury was stunned for a moment. She didn't know why Laijin suspected that she was her mother. She should have been very young when she was abandoned by Liu Sun.
Laijin grabbed her arm tightly and stared at her without blinking. Mercury didn't know for a while whether the child was really drunk or fake. Did he take this opportunity to ask The doubts that have been buried in the heart for a long time. She just told her truthfully: "I'm not your mother."
Laijin didn't know if she was disappointed or happy, she cried and laughed and lay on the side and fell asleep, when Mercury got close, she could still hear her muttering like in a dream, "It's not good, it's not better, I I don't want to hate you either."
