Chapter 75
Rejection
Author: pear wine
Fu Da obediently handed the silver bean back to Wencheng, who did not accept it at all.
Fu Da was so anxious that he threw the silver beans into Wen Cheng's arms and avoided him as if facing a savage beast.
Liu Shuhuan watched them refuse impatiently. Taking advantage of the opportunity for everyone to talk, he quietly walked around the crowd and came to the room pointed out by Mr. Fu just now.
This is a mud house. The space is not too big, but the things are arranged neatly and orderly, making it very neat and clear.
The air in the room exudes a faint fragrance, as if it comes from the fine flowers and plants embroidered on the bed and quilt.
Liu Shuhuan immediately guessed that the person living here must be a woman. Recalling the young daughter of the Fu family whom he had seen during the meal, he was almost certain whose boudoir this was.
There is an embroidery stand in front of the window, with a piece of red cloth fixed on it. The mandarin ducks playing in the water are only half embroidered, and the embroidery needle is inserted diagonally on it, as if to tell people that the owner suddenly changed from the happy expectation of getting married due to urgent matters.
Wake up and leave.
"Huh?" Liu Shuhuan was a little surprised and leaned over to take a look.
The mandarin ducks on this embroidered cloth are so lifelike. It seems that Sister Fu Nuo is also a clever girl.
Liu Shuhuan took out the silver coins and decided to put them on the red cloth on the embroidery stand. Then he took a few steps back and looked at it carefully.
"This should be conspicuous enough." Liu Shuhuan nodded with satisfaction.
After they left Fu's house, Fu Nuo could see the silver on the red cloth as soon as he entered the house. Why couldn't he chase it out and return it to them?
She just said that there was no need for such trouble, she could do it all by herself, and besides that, she also had a brilliant idea.
When she merged into the crowd again, Lan Xi and others didn't even notice that Liu Shuhuan had disappeared for a while.
Liu Shuhuan poked her good sister's arm and whispered in her ear: "Lan Xi, I have put the silver in Fu Nuo's room."
"Ah, you have already put it away. When did you go?"
"Just now, when you were talking."
"You move so fast!" This is such a powerful move!
Okay, now that it's okay, let them take a good walk to eat.
Song Lanjiu and others on the other side didn't know that Liu Shuhuan had secretly given the money and was asking Wen Cheng to chase the boss of the Fu family.
The eldest son of the Fu family is a person who only knows how to obey, so Song Lanjiu simply went hard on Mr. Fu.
"Grandpa Fu, life is not easy for you farmers, how can a group of us have the nerve to eat and drink at your home?"
"It's just a simple meal, just eat it, don't be polite to us!"
"That won't work. The villagers are working so hard in the fields. If you refuse to accept it, we won't dare to bother you again next time."
Song Lanjiu and others were firm, so Mr. Fu had no choice but to let his son take the silver bean.
"You...well, you are all good children!" Mr. Fu was moved by their respect for common people like him.
After thanking the Fu family again, they slowly walked out of the yard.
When Liu Shuhuan turned around to confirm that there were no outsiders around, he said to Lan Xi beside him: "Lan Xi, I just discovered something interesting. You won't be able to guess what it is!"
"What's going on?" Lan Xi interrupted before Zhan Yu could answer, "Shu Huan, you haven't told us the little secret you told us before, why are you whispering again now?"
"That's right, what on earth were you talking about before and you still didn't tell me honestly!" Song Lanshu asked deliberately with a straight face.
"Actually, it's nothing. We just discussed secretly giving people a piece of money. You all know what happened next." Lan Xi replied for Liu Shuhuan.
"Why do you want to stuff it secretly?" Zhan Yu asked.
"Didn't you see that when I first offered them, they were not willing to accept them at all? Don't you find it troublesome to push them back and forth?"
Zhan Yu scratched his head: "Actually, I don't quite understand. They don't want anything. When we bought the slingshot, didn't they all want money?"
"You don't understand. Let Sister Jin tell you." Zhan Jin is his sister, and she takes this opportunity to teach him about the ways of the world.
Zhan Jin took the opportunity to take over the conversation: "Yu'er, the reason why people in Fujiazhuang are eager to get money is because money is a very important thing. It can buy food to satisfy hunger, and it can also buy clothes to cover the body and keep out the cold.
Everything we need for food, clothing, housing and transportation is inseparable from it.”
"Then I'm right. Why didn't they accept Brother Jiu's money just now?" Zhan Yu was even more confused by what she said.
Zhan Jin shook his head: "You are seven years old in the new year, but you are still so ignorant."
"Money is very important, and not only the people in Fujiazhuang value it. Who in the world is willing to live a life of hardship! But there are some things in this world that are far more important than money. At times like this, many people would rather not have the money.
Also get what they want.”
"I understand, Grandpa Fu and the others want to get another thing, which is more valuable than silver, so they want to exchange it with us for silver!"
"But besides silver, what else is more precious to us?"
Finally, it was Song Lanjiu who solved the little chubby boy's doubts: "Why not? That's a lot, even though they don't know you and..."
Song Lanjiu looked at Zhan Jin. Although she had agreed not to reveal her identity, she was not related to him like Liu Shuhuan. He didn't know how to call her.
After hesitating for a while, he decided to call her like his two younger sisters.
"...and Jin'er's royal status, but how can it be different in reality? The benefits of being friends with us are far greater than a silver bean!"
Zhan Yu finally understood the reason for the scene just now, and felt a little depressed for some reason: "It's like this, I thought they really liked us so they didn't accept our money!"
Song Lanjiu realized that what she said was too absolute, and added a few more words.
"You are right to say that. Their closeness is not all because of our status. Whether they treat us sincerely or fakely can probably be distinguished. Otherwise, we would not think of secretly giving some repayment."
Speaking of repayment, Song Lanjiu remembered Liu Shuhuan's words just now, so she asked her: "Huan'er, you haven't said what surprising discovery you just made?"
Liu Shuhuan gave it up first and raised his eyebrows at the other people: "What about you? Do you want to know what I found?"
"Huanhuan, just tell me quickly, it's the most abominable thing to do anything like this!"
Guess what, every time this happens, Lan Xi gets so anxious that she feels extremely uncomfortable.
