Chapter 18 (1/2)
”If you don't like it, you can eat it at my house at noon, so that you don't have to rush to the city at noon. It's the food in the small courtyard. I'm afraid the girl is not used to it. ” Out of the gate of the flower family, aunt Lao politely invited.
She thought that the mother-in-law of the Hua family would stay sushuizhen and her husband for lunch before leaving. After all, it was such a big deal. Who knows that Liu's family didn't even mention politeness, but he and his daughter-in-law, who is also very stingy, murmured about the move. They didn't mean to keep them for dinner when they left. They were really annoyed for Su Shuizhen.
”No, Auntie Lao, let's go back to the inn in the city for dinner. The room fee there hasn't been settled yet. Besides, we have to prepare some toiletries and other things in the afternoon. We've got your kindness. This silver won't be worth a few coppers. Aunt Lao, take it. Today, thanks to your help and Robert's help, otherwise, we are not sure when we will find out. ” Su Shuifu said thanks and took out a grain of silver from the sleeve pocket and gave it to Aunt Lao with a smile. This is what she deliberately put in her sleeves to deal with trifles.
A total of eleven pieces of broken silver of different sizes were given to the coachman, one of which bought the lantern and a special snack in Fanluo on the night of July 7. Three big ones, I made a deposit on the day I stayed in the inn. The remaining six pieces of broken silver are bare, and they don't have much weight, so Su Shuifu doesn't get into his purse, but put them in his armpit pocket on his sleeve for a rainy day.
”No, no, no, girl. It's a coincidence that I can help you. I can't accept this. If I accept it, I'll be ashamed to ignore it. I'll see my old man's face when he comes back. ” Aunt Lao politely declined Su Shuifu's thanks with shame. After running away, she took a piece of silver and naked son from the other side. If it was passed on, she would not be teased for being greedy for money. Fanhua town says that it's not big or small. So many women and men outside the village point at her back and talk about it. She can't stand it. After all, Lao's face is not as thick as that of Hua's, and she only cares about her own fat, regardless of others' mouths.
”In that case, I'll go back to town and bring aunt Lao some necessary things as a thank-you.” Su Shuipeng saw that she was determined not to accept it, maybe she did not dare to accept it, so she did not force her to accept the silver coins into her sleeves, and said with a smile.
”You are very kind, girl.” Auntie Lao blushed and replied. In my heart, I'm glad that Su Shuijin is so considerate and polite. Thinking of going to the city to buy new things, Auntie Lao thought over the missing utensils in her heart. She thought that if she could give her some ceramic dishes, it would be great. If not, several cotton towels or a new washbasin would be good.
In this way, the three and two wolves soon came to the entrance and exit of Fanhua town - near the big pond.
”Go back, aunt Lao. I'm really tired of you today.” Su Shuijin takes aunt Lao and talks about something more. He leaves Fanhua town with Lin siyao and two wolf cubs and drives to Fanluo city.
Along the way, since Lin Shiyao was holding her, he used lightness skills with his feet. After several leaps, he soon returned to the inn.
Catch up with the last batch of meals, eat something casually, and go back to their rooms for a little rest. On a hot summer afternoon, shopping can't lift your spirits. It's better to take advantage of the sunset and cool evening.

”It turns out that silver doesn't cost much.” Su Shuizhen pinched the empty sleeves gently, then looked back at Lin Shiyao, who was holding a bag of things and utensils in his eyes and hands apologetically, and said with a sigh: ”I thought I would buy two more inner garments for each of us, but I didn't expect that six silver naked seeds were used for these things.”
