Chapter 205 A real prodigal

Uncle Liao thought before that if you can get dozens of grams of gold for forty or fifty yuan, whoever takes a bite of it would be heartbroken.

Unexpectedly, I gave him one.

Uncle Liao quickly said: "No, no, no, we can't do this."

Forty or fifty yuan, how dare he accept such a valuable thing!

Seeing that Uncle Liao didn't extend his hand, Qiao Mu handed the ham to Aunt Lan who had just come out of the house.

Aunt Lan still couldn't figure out what was going on. She thought it was something Uncle Liao bought from the capital, so she took it over in confusion.

Qiao Mu smiled at Uncle Liao, "Susie usually follows you outside, so you don't have to worry about it."

Only then did Uncle Liao realize that it was originally directed at Su Qian.

He could only say: "Thank you, thank you very much."

After sending Uncle Liao home, they turned around and headed towards the collective household.

When I opened the yard door, I saw Da Mao Ermao and the others walking in the fence over the chicken coop.

The doors of several rooms were closed and it was quiet.

Susie shouted, "Tingting!"

The door of the front room suddenly opened, and Zhao Tingting rushed out with surprise on her face.

Zhao Tingting came out and took the bag from Su Qian's hand, "I thought you would have to come back after the New Year."

Qiao Mu helped carry Susie's revolving bottle into the house, put down the ham and left. Susie entered the house but did not see Tian Xiaohui, "Where is Xiaohui?"

Zhao Tingting said: "Let's go. I left yesterday's train with Yuan Gang to go home for the New Year."

Tian Xiaohui's family sent her travel expenses, and Yuan Gang also had more than 100 yuan earned from selling charcoal. Both of them were not short of money, so they took family leave and left.

Zhao Tingting's family didn't send her travel expenses. A round-trip train ticket cost more than fifty. Although she still had some money on hand, she was reluctant to spend it.

Zhao Tingting put down Susie's travel bag and quickly poured her a cup of hot tea, "It's freezing. Come on, warm your hands."

Susie smiled at her, feeling very warm in her heart.

Zhao Tingting said mysteriously: "Didn't you notice any changes in our house?"

Susie really didn't notice it. She looked around and said, "What's the change?"

Zhao Tingting pointed upward, "Look up."

Susie looked up and saw a light bulb hanging from the beam and a pull cord by the window.

"It's good now, there's no need to light candles at night."

Susie sat in the room for a while holding the teacup, her hands and feet were warm, and then she opened her travel bag to get something.

After sorting out the things for her grandparents, Su Qian told Zhao Tingting and walked towards Xu's house carrying the bag, the revolving bottle and the ham.

As soon as he entered the courtyard gate of Xu's house, he saw Chen Yun. Chen Yun seemed to be going out, but when he saw Su Qian's face, he couldn't help but pull it down.

Then she saw the big and small bags Susie was holding.

Suddenly a smile appeared on her face again, and she smiled at Susie again and shouted, "Mom, Susie is here!"

She knew that Susie had gone to the capital and heard the old lady talk about it at home.

These big and small bags are probably all good things Susie brought for the old lady.

She came towards Susie with a smile on her face, "Oh, why did you carry so many things? It's quite heavy. Come on, come on, I'll help you carry it."

Susie had already walked to the door and said with a smile: "I won't bother you anymore, Auntie." She entered the room and put the things on the table.

The old lady came out of the back room and looked at Susie first. She didn't look thin and she was in good spirits.

She didn't say anything else first, "Is the matter done?"

Susie nodded, "It's done."

The old lady patted her chest and said, "That's good. You've been here for so long, and my heart is worried every day."

Chen Yun was about to go out, but when he saw Su Qian carrying something, he didn't leave, so he stood beside her.

Susie took out the contents of the travel bag one by one.

Two bottles of osmanthus wine, a box of Poria cakes, a pound of persimmons, and two boxes of pastries from Daoxiang Village.

She pointed to the things on the table, "These are the New Year's goods that Uncle Xu bought for you and asked me to bring them."

The old lady looked at the things on the table and shook her head, "What's the point of buying these? It's better to come back and see my parents."

"ungrateful!"

Susie smiled as the old lady cursed a few words, then pointed to the ham on the table, "This is - the New Year's gift I bought for you."

The old lady took a closer look and said, "Oh, this is ham, or Jinhua ham. This thing is so expensive!"

"Why did you buy this and how much did it cost?"

Su Qian originally wanted to say that it didn't cost much. She knew that the old man would be reluctant to part with it and would feel bad if he spent too much. However, when she saw Chen Yun next to her, she specifically said: "This ham is really expensive."

"I bought it at the overseas Chinese store, which doesn't require a meat stamp, but they only accept foreign exchange. This one only cost ten dollars."

"It costs forty or fifty yuan."

Chen Yun's eyes almost popped out when he heard this.

Doesn’t this just look like a piece of bacon? It actually cost forty or fifty? My God, Susie is such a spendthrift. With that kind of money, she might as well give it to them directly!

The old lady knew the goods and nodded, "I'm just saying it's not cheap. It's heavy. Why did you kid carry it all the way back? You must be exhausted."

Chen Yun looked at the big bag beside him and couldn't help but said: "What is this?"

Su Qian said: "This is my own thing. It is inconvenient to store it in a collective household. I store it here with grandma."

Thinking about it, she added, "Not only this, I also saved a lot of things with grandma."

She thought it was better to make it clear to Chen Yun first. She was a little worried that when she took these things out in the future, Chen Yun would think she was taking things from the Xu family.

Chen Yun was a little disappointed and looked around at the things on the table, thinking about which items she could take back to her parents' home.

The old lady looked at Chen Yun and knew what she was thinking, and she snorted in her heart.

At this time, old man Xu happened to come in. When he saw Su Qian, he said happily: "Si Qian is back? Your grandma talks about you every day."

The old lady instructed Old Man Xu, "Put all these things on the table into the room."

Chen Yun watched Old Man Xu take away things one by one, feeling like a cat scratching his heart.

Susie carried the revolving bottle and pulled the old lady into the back room.

The old lady asked in a low voice: "Have you really settled all that matter, and there will be no future troubles?"

Su Qian nodded and whispered: "Su Zhenguo and his wife have been arrested. The Taoist priest is left to Uncle Xu to clean up. He probably won't be able to escape. In short, I don't have to worry about it in the future."

The old lady kept saying: "That's good, that's good."

"Amitabha, Bodhisattva bless you."

When Old Man Xu moved all the things outside into the house, the old lady kicked Old Man Xu out and closed the door.

She also deliberately walked to the window, opened it a crack and took a look. She was relieved when she saw Chen Yun walking out.

Watching Susie open the bag and reveal the brocade box inside, the old lady saw that there was a beautiful porcelain bottle with hollow patterns inside.

She asked in a low voice, "Is this used by the emperor again?"

Su Qian smiled and nodded. The porcelain from the official kiln was supplied to the imperial palace. She didn't know whether the emperor used it or not.
