In the face of such a big family, how can we split up?

Jiang Huijia silently calculated an account in her heart. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The old Song family is big and small, with a total of thirteen people, but when it comes to property, they only have a small house and fifty acres of land.

Fifty acres of land seems to be a lot, but if you carefully calculate the production capacity of today's fields, these fifty acres of land are nothing. The area of Qingfeng Mountain is located in the left side of the river, belongs to Huguang, and the local capital is Baoqing Mansion. There are many hills, mountains, rivers and ponds, and most of the farmers plant paddy fields. The high-quality paddy fields can be planted for two seasons, and the yield of rice per mu in spring is more than 100 and nearly 200 catties, and the yield of rice per mu in autumn is about 300 catties.

This is not the era of hybrid rice in later generations, a year, one acre of land with two harvests, it is good to have 500 catties. After deducting the tax payment, in the end, it will be a harvest of more than 300 catties.

The 50 acres of land of the old Song family are not all high-grade fields, even if they are calculated according to the fact that one mu of land can collect 300 catties of grain a year, the income of these 50 acres of land is 15,000 catties all year round.

The basic chewing of one pound of grain for an adult at the end of the day is to ask, and because men eat more and women and children eat less, the average is calculated according to the daily need of one pound of grain per person. The thirteen members of the old Song family, after rounding, the annual consumption of grain is about 4,700 catties to 5,000 catties. At present, the price of grain may fluctuate, but it is roughly one tael of silver and two stones of rice, which is almost the same.

One stone of rice is about 125 catties of rice, and when converted, 10,000 catties of rice can be folded into 80 stones, and 80 is divided by 2 to equal to 40. That is to say, the old Song family can get forty taels of silver if they don't spend any money except for food in a year.

But in fact, is it possible for the old Song family to spend nothing except for food?

Of course, that's impossible, not to mention the cost of daily clothing, let's just say that Song Wulang goes to school, and his year's bundle of silver will cost ten taels!

In addition to the shackles, it is also necessary to prepare a year-round festival for the husband of the jukukan, which is also an expense. After removing these, Song Wulang studyed, the ink, paper, and inkstone didn't cost money, and the room and board didn't cost money? There were still many places that cost money, and Jiang Huijia didn't know enough about the old Song family, and she couldn't count them for a while.

She secretly estimated that the old Song family's money spent on Song Wulang alone in a year may not be enough for thirty taels!

Supporting a scholar was definitely a difficult task for a peasant family in ancient times that required the whole family to tighten their belts. It is no wonder that Song Saburo wanted to catch the exam, but he lacked travel expenses and had to go up the mountain to hunt to entangle himself.

Jiang Huijia also heard that Song Sanlang studied when he was a child, and his biological mother Cui did embroidery work in exchange for money.

The origin of this Cui lady is not simple, according to Jiang's mother, Cui was originally a big girl released by a big family, because she committed an accident in the main family, so she was matched to the countryside Zhuangzi, and finally married Song Baishan. Cui's literacy and hyphenation, knowledge of books, especially one-handed embroidery, is very good. It is precisely because of this that she was able to supply Song Yi's study expenses with embroidery alone.

It is precisely because of Cui's ability that she failed to get pregnant back then, and Mrs. Song only used her brains to marry Song Baishan another wife, and never had the idea of asking Song Baishan to divorce his wife.

It's a pity that Cui's body collapsed early, and she worked hard to supply Song Yi to the point where she was about to be able to get out, but she couldn't survive at such a time. She went west with her life, not only did she not enjoy Song Yi's blessings, but after her death, Song Yi also suffered many misfortunes, as if she had become a wasted person, and really failed her years of hard work.

In this mother and son, it can only be said that although they have done their best, they have no choice but to do their best.

To put it mildly, poverty is still to blame.

Jiang Huijia thought in her heart that in this ancient era when filial piety was greater than heaven and parents were not separated, if you want to separate herself and Song Yi from the old Song family, you still have to start from the aspect of money.

It must be clear that Yu Shi must realize that although she Jiang Huijia married into the Song family with a rich dowry, if she wants to treat Song Yi's leg disease, her so-called rich dowry is all bet, and it is just a drop in the bucket!

She wanted to let the Yu family know that on this, the Yu family not only did not want to take advantage of her dowry, but even as long as Song Yi was in the Song family for a day, his body would be like a bottomless pit, constantly squeezing the Song family's already tight family foundation.

A rural family with 50 acres of land should have lived a rich peasant life, but the Song family not only had to provide for a scholar Song Wulang, but also take care of a patient like Song Yi who ate money like a bottomless pit, so it was no wonder that he could live a comfortable life.

Jiang Huijia made up her mind in her heart: "You must take the initiative to break up the family!"

All of this is a long story, but in fact, it is just Jiang Huijia's effort. She saw that the Yu family frowned coldly at the Zhang family, and suddenly turned her gaze and sneered at Jiang Huijia: "And you, only took a hundred dollars out of the big box of silver in the box, as if we should be grateful to you." The whole son's injury was originally caused by you, and you only took a hundred dollars, and your heart is so black that you can see holes!"

Jiang Huijia: "......"
