Xu Changqing was awakened by the sound of clattering pots and pans, and when she opened her eyes for a moment - did it light up? She was frightened by the sky outside the window and got up from the kang.

"Are you up? Go and wash your face." It is very rare that Xu Qiguang, who came home during the wheat harvest season, did not go to work early this morning, but stayed at home to clean the outhouse.

Xu Changqing stayed up all night last night. She drifted off to sleep and kept dreaming. Now she saw that her father had even pulled out the cabinets and tidied them up, and couldn't help but be stunned.

"We'll leave in half an hour."

Also, Xu Changqing finally remembered the appointment they made last night - she had to accompany her father to the county town to meet someone. Looking at the many dreams, she almost suffered from amnesia.

"Why, you don't want to give up the work points?"

She was really reluctant to give up. She had earned more work points these two days than usual. Originally, she wanted to exchange her work points for more food rations this year, and then go to the mountains to see if she could try her luck.

If possible, wait until her father's 40th birthday next year. No, let's wait until the end of this year to see if we can save a bicycle for her father as a birthday gift, so that her father can travel back and forth more conveniently.

There is no need to say this.

Before this, or before today, when she saw that I was still reluctant to buy a bicycle after working for so many years, she would have felt panicked again.

Since her father made it clear that he did have money left at home just in case, she felt at ease. If she didn't go to work, she wouldn't go to work. It just so happened that she had something to deal with today, so she might as well take a day off. She stared in displeasure.

When I came over, Xu Changqing smiled and changed the topic, "My mother went to work again?"

"I left the house early in the morning." Xu Qiguang was probably worried and sneaked into her eldest daughter's house again. Xu Qiguang didn't bother to mention it. "Don't worry about it, your mother will take good care of your mother-in-law."

Xu Changqing nodded silently, and quickly took a hanging towel and swung it over his shoulder. He took a peeled enamel cup and toothpaste and toothbrush and left the outhouse.

In the morning light, it was clearly visible that several more branches had been set up in her small garden where fruits and vegetables were planted. She had brought them back when she wanted to take time to cut firewood yesterday morning, and they were all done.

Xu Changqing looked around the entire yard while brushing his teeth, and then looked at the lower room (warehouse) on the east gable of his house whose roof ridge height was no more than the eaves of a five-and-a-half-brick main house.

Seeing that the two doors were closed at this time, she knew that her father was cleaning the cupboards specifically to find a place to hide money in the outhouse, and the most likely thing was to hide it behind the cupboards.

Wasn't she muttering to herself about her biological father, and her father's method of hiding money? It meant that she had never thought that she actually had savings before, otherwise she would have found the right one and would never have failed.

"Dad, how many are there?"

Returning to the outhouse again, Xu Changqing saw her father with one hand on his hips and one hand touching his chin while looking at the cabinets that had been packed up against the wall. She could no longer hold back her curiosity and asked.

"Feeding you will definitely not be a problem." Xu Qiguang glanced at her sideways and pointed at the square table in the main room with his hand touching his chin, indicating that she should go have breakfast quickly.

Here are the words again... Xu Changqing shook her head. Seeing that there was only a pair of chopsticks on the table, she knew that her father had already had breakfast. As she walked over there, she replied, "Ten thousand?"

Xu Qiguang laughed dumbly, "I didn't realize it, but my old son is quite loud. Is it going to cost tens of thousands of dollars to support you? I really can't afford to support you."

"half?"

Hi! This kid is really serious about this matter today. Usually he doesn't even want to ask how much money the family has? Xu Qiguang shook his head secretly, "Fold it in half again."

What?

What a dog!

If she hadn't been at home yesterday afternoon, wouldn't all the two thousand and five thousand have been stolen by that thing? Xu Changqing regretted it to death, she should have chopped it with a knife yesterday!

If she didn't scare that bastard once and for all, he would definitely try to take advantage of her family again! It's a shame that she has to continue to stay here, and there are plenty of opportunities to take care of her.

You actually want to go back to the city?

Incredibly beautiful!

Picking up the chopsticks and picking up the bowl, Xu Changqing thought about it and turned to look at his father who was approaching, "How come our family has so much money? Could it be that we borrowed it from my master for spare money?"

"no."

"Then there can't be so much." Not to mention that every year there is not enough food to eat and we have to spend money to buy food, just this family... "Every year our family's friendship costs a lot of money."

"This part is also taken back, not always taken out."

How could it be possible! Ever since she could remember, she had never seen any big happy events in her family, such as many relatives and her master's family coming to give them big red envelopes.

However, among the many relatives in her family, either one family is building a house and having children, another family is short of money to marry a daughter-in-law, or someone in the family is in trouble and needs a helping hand.

Even though her old uncle's family is a couple with two jobs and only one son and one daughter, her old uncle still yells all day long so that everyone knows that his family really can't save much money.

And because of her mother's selfless attitude when the family was separated, her father didn't receive anything at all. She relied solely on her father to get a salary, support the elderly and the children, and build these five entire villages.

The main house was built with half a brick, and the two daughters were allowed to go to school. Xu Baimi did not stop school until she was getting married last year.

Not only that, but she still didn't take into account that sometimes her father would ask for favors when he was out entertaining. It's not that she hadn't calculated how much the family spent in a year, but it was scary to calculate it.

Okay, I'm thinking too far again.

Xu Changqing quickly pulled his thoughts back and asked again seemingly casually, "Didn't I borrow it from my master? If so, it's okay. I will be able to work in two years."

This kid still doesn't believe it. Xu Qiguang is quite speechless. Not to mention borrowing money, it's just my son's master? The old man's money bag is already held by his wife, so you still want to lend him money?

It's almost enough to pay back the borrowed money.

"Okay, just tell me what you want to ask?"

As soon as these words came out, Xu Changqing saw that the situation was not good. If she continued to ask questions, she would not dare to fool others even though she was so petty. She quickly shook her head and started to drink the porridge.

Did not say?

She still didn't believe that she wouldn't be able to tell the truth from the old man's mouth when she turned around. If her father really had something in the old man's hands, that dream couldn't be regarded as a dream.

"Dad, how many days can you stay at home this time?"

Xu Qiguang was holding up a bowl of egg custard in front of him and handing it to his daughter. Hearing this, he looked at his daughter meaningfully and said, "Five days. Focus on studying and think less about whether you have something."

Five days?

That's OK.

Time is enough.

Xu Changqing selectively missed the last sentence, took the bowl from her father without saying a word, and ate the almost cold egg custard with her head down.

"Eat more slowly." Xu Qiguang touched his daughter's head, "I've been beaten, and this matter is over. I'm just going to make things difficult for your uncle."

"oh."

"Can you guarantee that your mother won't cause any trouble for me before she gives birth? If not, just go to work with me and go back to school directly after the vacation."
