MTL - Fight the Giants-Chapter 66 grab money

  Chapter 66 Robbery

   "Mother! What are you doing?" Huo Erhuai was confused by Fang's actions.

   When he came back to his senses and wanted to press Fang's hand, it was too late.

  Fang quickly took out a purse from Huo Erhuai's arms, grinned happily, and ran away before Huo Erhuai came back to his senses. Huo Sipan trotted to follow.

  Huo Erhuai stared blankly at Fang Shi and Huo Sipan who ran away, with a sad expression.

   His mother found him without asking if they were doing well or if they could live on.

   After receiving the new grain, he knew to ask him for money without saying that he had sent them a bag and a half. The brothers were conscripted into corvee service, and they felt sorry for them, so they had to pay for someone to serve them on their behalf.

   What about him, did he pick it up?

  Huo Xi hid aside and looked at Huo Erhuai who was standing there in a daze. Seeing him staring at the mother and child running away in a daze, he froze and stood like a statue.

  The back is lonely and lonely.

   A touch of heartache surged up.

Xiao Pao stepped forward and grabbed Huo Erhuai's rough hand: "Father, you have us. From now on, Nian'er and I will be filial to you and your mother. I will earn a lot of money, so I invite many servants to serve you And mother. Let you comfortably be the old masters at home."

  Huo Erhuai looked down at her, and saw that she was looking up at him, her eyes were full of his own projection.

  I couldn't help but feel deeply moved.

   So what if there is blood relationship, so what if there is no blood relationship. Those who are not related by blood are closer.

   held her hand tightly: "Well, dad is waiting. Let's go, let's find your mother and brother."

  The father and daughter walked towards the ferry.

  Passing by a stall selling pastries, Huo Erhuai was attracted by the aroma and took a look. I saw that there were all kinds of cakes on the stall, such as thousand-layer cakes, Ruyi cakes, jade belt cakes, and roll core cakes, all of which were exquisitely made.

   After taking a look at Huo Xi, she was about to reach into her bosom to pick out her purse.

   Once I took it out, it was empty.

  It just occurred to me that his mother took all the money from selling fish today, and now I don’t even have the money to buy a piece of cake for my child. His eyes dimmed.

  Huo Xi doesn't know.

  Shaking his hand, he looked up and smiled at him: "Father, we still have flour and pumpkin on board. Let's go back and make pumpkin pie."

  Huo Erhuai was relieved of the embarrassment by the child, and he pressed his heart tightly, tightening the child's hand, his eyes were gentle: "Okay. Dad will help with it when I go back."

  The two swept away the haze just now, talked and laughed and returned to the ferry.

   After waiting for half an hour, I saw Yang Fu and Yang Shi rowing to pick him up.

  The two of them were still secretive, looking around, afraid of being entangled by the Huo family.

   "Are they gone?" When Huo Xi and Huo Erhuai boarded the boat, Yang Fu still stood on tiptoe and looked ashore.

   "Let's go. He snatched Dad's purse and ran away."

Yang Fu gritted his teeth with hatred: "I knew it. The family only knew to ask for money, and every time they came to ask for money, they must be asking for money, and they cried for poverty. The family has land and land, three sons, three daughters-in-law, and another big daughter-in-law. A pile of grandchildren, the whole family should be more diligent, open up wasteland and raise land for a few years, if the weather in the south of the Yangtze River is good, can you still be hungry?"

  Yang Fu read on and on, obviously very angry.

  Huo Xi shook his head and laughed.

  Whether the family will be hungry or not, she doesn't know. She hasn't been to Huo's house in Huojiaba yet. Don't know what's inside.

   But looking at the situation of the mother and child today, the family should not be in trouble.

   It's just that I have to pay a few taels of acting service all at once, and my flesh hurts, and I want to ask her father to share a little.

  At the stern of the boat, Yang was also asking Huo Erhuai about the situation.

  After listening, Yang felt wronged and felt sorry for Huo Erhuai. How could there be such a mother and brother?

  Hearing that she gave birth to a son, she didn't say to come and see, but asked about the situation of her grandson, but she was surprised that the child was still alive. Although I don't count on them, I still feel sad for being so cold.

   Thinking of Saburo who died in his arms, Yang shed tears.

  Huo Erhuai went to pull her: "Don't cry, it's not good for the children to see. Nian'er is Saburo, let's raise him and Xi'er well, they will be filial to us."

  Yang wiped her tears, choked with sobs and nodded.

   "The money is gone?"

  Huo Erhuai nodded: "I didn't expect her to touch my arms."

  Mr. Yang snorted, "What can't your mother do!" In order to get a few more taels of dowry, she was willing to shamelessly go to the door of Yang's house and roll around.

   Fortunately, Huo Erhuai is a good person. These years, the husband and wife have been of the same mind, and he treats Yang Fu as if he is already married.

   "If it's gone, it's gone. Fortunately, our family still has some savings."

  Huo Erhuai also felt emotional when he heard this: "Yes, thanks to Xi'er. Otherwise, our life this year may be difficult."

After Huo Xi and Yang Fu finished talking in the cabin, they saw that Mrs. Yang had pulled hemp ropes on the three cabins and hung them with marinated chickens and ducks, just like the farmhouse pickled bacon and sausages in autumn and winter. It's full.

  Huo Xi went up to sniff it, it smells really good.

  Yang Fu also got down on his stomach and sniffed. This year, there is no need to eat salted fish and cured fish. There is meat to eat. So much meat!

  Mr. Yang came in and slapped him away. "These days, you don't eat less meat, you're still greedy!"

  Yang Fu stared at a duck leg and drooled: "I don't eat much, just this duck leg will do."

   "I think you look like a duck leg!" He glared at him, looked at Huo Xi, and said with a smile: "Xi'er, there are some oranges at home, mother will bring them to you."

   As he spoke, he opened the deck and took out two oranges.

  Pass the milk orange to Huo Xi, and the Yingzhou tangerine to Yang Fu. Yang Fu glared at his sister, hum, treat them differently.

  Mr. Yang bared his teeth at him, some food is good, and he was picky.

  Huo Xi handed the milk orange to her hand: "Mother, you and dad can eat this, and uncle and I can eat that."

   "You eat it, but your parents won't eat it." Seeing that Huo Xi insisted on giving it to her, she took the one from Yang Fu and went to the stern of the boat to share with Huo Erhuai.

  Yang Fu quickly took the milk orange and peeled off the skin, and Huo Xi shared half of it.

  Just about to start eating, Huo Nian woke up rubbing his eyes.

  Huo Xi picked him up and handed a citrus to his mouth, and he immediately turned his head away.

  A few days ago, seeing him hungry, Huo Xi handed a sour orange to his mouth. After he licked it twice, he trembled with sourness. Later, when I saw everyone squeezing orange juice, I stopped clamoring for it.

  Now he also put his head on Huo Xi's shoulder reflexively.

   Seeing Huo Xi and Yang Fu eating deliciously again, they turned their heads to look again. Staring straight in the eyes, drooling.

  Huo Xi tore off the film on both sides of the milk orange, and handed the pulp to his mouth. He stared at Huo Xi and looked at it, and then carefully stretched out his little tongue to lick it.

   With this lick, the smell came out.

  Dancing and dancing, the whole body leaned over, oh oh, I still want it.

   Seeing Yang Shi and Yang Fu very much.

   It wasn't until Huo Xi fed him a small piece that he didn't let him eat it.

   Seeing that he was not enough, Huo Xi patted his little hand and nodded his mouth: "I can't eat it, if I eat it again, I won't grow teeth."

  The little thing didn't know if he understood. He pursed his mouth and felt aggrieved. He leaned towards Yang and stretched out his arms to hug her.

  Ms. Yang held him in her arms, and coaxed him: "Let's eat when Nian'er grows up? When Nian'er grows up, mother will buy a lot for Nian'er to eat."

  Seeing that he was still staring at the milk orange in Yang Fu's hand, he glared at Yang Fu: "Hurry up and eat it!"

  Yang Fu was so frightened that he fed the remaining citrus into his mouth and chewed them profusely.

  Huo Nian went to look at Huo Xi again, Huo Xi also stuffed it into his mouth, and waved his hand at him to indicate that it was gone.

  Huo Nian looked at Yang Shi with some grievances, and felt sorry for Yang Shi: "Oh, I don't want to eat it. Mother took Nianer to cook eggs to eat."

   Holding Nian'er in his arms, he went to the bow of the boat to cook eggs.

   Huo Xi, on the other hand, got into his own cabin, preparing to check the inventory on the ship.

   It will be on the shelves tomorrow, let’s spread some flowers~ It’s hard to boil the data before it’s on the shelves, and I’m also nervous to read the data after it’s on the shelves. Thank you to everyone who has been supporting, voting monthly, recommending votes, commenting, and rewarding friends, I love you!

   I watched CCTV news the day before yesterday, saying that the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal has been fully flooded with water after continuous water injection. However, the entire line has not yet been opened to navigation. The North Canal section is blocked by silt. It is estimated that the northern section will not be open to navigation for the time being. It is a pity.
