Chapter 17 Poor Little(1/2)

Su Cai'er held a pile of silver coins dizzy and quickly returned it to Zhao Ce.

She said hesitantly: "Husband, husband, I'm afraid of losing you."

She has never received so much money!

Zhao Ce took it and said with a smile: "It's okay."

"There is a wooden box containing money in the room, and there are two land deeds in it."

"Let's go hide the money!"

After saying that, he took the little girl back to the room.

Zhao Ce opened the wooden box containing the land deed and put the silver ingot inside.

Put some more copper plates.

The rest he would also keep as pocket money for future trips out of the city.

After putting it away, hand it to the little girl.

Pointing to a small hole next to the bed, he said, "This money box is placed right here."

"I will leave it to you for safekeeping from now on."

Su Cai'er held the money box in her arms and nodded nervously.

She seemed to have accepted some important task. With a serious face, she promised: "I, I will definitely take good care of it!"

With that said, under Zhao Ce's instructions, he put the money box in that place.

The bed was made again.

He even patted his little hand solemnly.

After the photo was taken, Xiaozui still muttered: "Husbands have a hard time making money, so you should hide it well."

Zhao Ce looked at her series of ritual-like movements and felt very fulfilled.

After all, there is a person who values ​​the fruits of his labor so much.

Su Cai'er came back to her senses at this time and asked curiously: "Husband, where did these five taels of silver come from?"

Zhao Ce explained that the lantern riddles he wrote for the bookstore were adopted.

He was rewarded with so much silver.

Lu Cai'er praised: "My husband is very knowledgeable."

"Even the scholar wants to use your lantern riddles."

Although this doesn't mean the right thing, Zhao Ce still finds it useful.

He smiled and said: "But this amount of money is still too little."

"We have to deal with the sugar today and exchange it for money tomorrow."

Su Cai'er quickly nodded her little head and said, "Okay."

"I'm helping my husband."

After hiding the money, the two of them stopped staying in the room.

Su Cai'er had just washed her clothes and they hadn't finished drying them yet.

She said: "Husband, after I finish drying these clothes, we can start dinner."

Zhao Ce nodded.

I saw the little girl walking over and continuing to hang clothes.

A lot of laundry has already been dried on the patio.

The quilt on the bed was also taken out to dry in the sun.

The little girl is not very tall, so she has to stand on tiptoes and sometimes jump a little to hang her clothes on the bamboo pole.

Su Cai'er was hanging one up and spreading it underneath.

A shadow was cast next to it.

Su Cai'er turned around and saw that her husband was coming to help.

She raised her little face and said, "Husband, let me do it."

"You just came back from the city, you must be tired."

"Go inside and rest."

Under the sun, Zhao Ce saw the little girl's eyes again.

Two eyes, like gems.

Shining with tiny rays of light.

Su Cai'er saw her husband staring at her eyes, and she lowered her eyes nervously.

Only the thick long eyelashes are left.

"I, I'll just come..."

But I heard Zhao Ce say softly: "Your eyes are so beautiful."

Su Cai'er's small body trembled slightly, and her pupils shrank unconsciously.

She mustered up her courage and raised her face again.

"Husband, husband said..."

Zhao Ce put the clothes in his hand directly on the bamboo pole and said casually: "Your eyes are the most beautiful I have ever seen."

The color of the little girl's eyes is not as exaggerated as those in the anime Zhao Ce saw.

But paired with her round almond eyes.

Coupled with the long and straight eyelashes, they are blinking.

When a modern man like Zhao Ce saw this, only one word came to his mind.

——Cute.

Zhao Ce thought that with this little girl's appearance, she could probably dress up casually.

She is just a proper old-style little beauty.

After receiving Zhao Ce's affirmative answer, Su Cai'er only felt a sore nose.

Husband...

He is the first person to praise his beautiful eyes.

They all said that they were born with strange eyes and were a disaster.

Dad died, and people in the village said it was her who killed him.

She and her mother-in-law were driven away.

In order to survive, Aniang had no choice but to take her back to her parents' home.

Fortunately, their grandfather took them in and let them live in their natal village.

Aniang took her and cultivated half an acre of land in the village, and managed to survive.

Despite this, the villagers also rejected them.

There are people following her every day, calling her a disaster.

At that time, when her legs and feet started to get sick, my mother-in-law hugged her and cried all night.

It was said that her eyesight was bad and that there was nothing she could do about it.

Later, my grandpa died, and so did my mother-in-law.

Without anyone to protect her, her uncles all said that she was responsible for killing everyone in the family.

He even wanted to take her out and sell her directly.

If I hadn't met my husband.

Su Cai'er never knew that there were such good people in this world.

Let her have enough to eat and give her shelter from the wind and rain.

Don't mind her legs and feet and help her with her work.

He even praised her beautiful eyes.

After Zhao Ce dried all the clothes in the tub, he found that the little girl next to him had no voice.

He looked down doubtfully.

But he found this little girl silently dropping golden beans.

Zhao Ce panicked for a moment.
