Gong Yaozu regretted a little in his heart, he knew that before the Chinese New Year, he shouldn't have sent a letter home, and asked for money from home on the grounds that he wanted to go out to study, and he spent it all these days. If he hadn't taken it then, his mother would have been able to scrape together some taels of silver for him now.

But soon, he dismissed the idea. This is stupid, if he didn't want the money at that time, then her mother must have stuffed all the money to his good uncle today to subsidize her mother's family.

When he thought of his poor grandmother's house, Gong Yaozu's only thought was that it was a home that leaked everywhere and needed to fill holes everywhere. His mother has been making up for so many years, and she hasn't seen any improvement in her uncle's family.

It's a bottomless pit, and instead of making the money cheaper, they might as well get it in their hands and spend it sooner. It's also that my luck is so bad this time, I actually lost all the money in my hand so quickly. The most important thing now is to quickly take the silver and turn it over, and earn a little more to cover your future expenses.

It seems that this time at home is really difficult, and if you want to deduct some silver, I'm afraid it's not so easy.

Thinking of this, Gong Yaozu suddenly realized that his mother just said that the family did not have much money, mainly because he and his brother spent too much money on school. Of course, the main thing here is that his eldest brother spends too much money, but Gong Yaozu turned in his heart, and he also understood that with his mother, who kept subsidizing his mother's family, his family's family background, it was strange that he could be rich.

There is no money left at home, and this is thanks to this mother, who keeps getting things from her mother's house. Thinking of this, Gong Yaozu, who was originally a little decadent and a little nervous, suddenly relaxed.

He said to Uncle Gong Jian confidently: "That mother, why don't you hurry up and find something to come out, I just took it to the town this time to exchange some money."

After speaking, he also winked at Uncle Gong Jian twice, which was a code word used between their mother and son. Gong Yaozu's meaning is also very simple, that is, he hopes that his mother will quickly take out the valuable things in her hand and pawn them for some silver.

And the so-called valuable things in the hands of Uncle Gong Jian are actually some jewelry left by Gong Jian's grandmother.

Gong Jian's grandfather is a daughter-in-law, and his family is good, so every few years, he will buy a piece of jewelry for his daughter-in-law. Although most of these pieces of jewelry are silver or gold-filled, there are quite a few of them.

Of course, this also includes a few pieces, the silver money earned by going out to work after Gong Jian's father grew up, and a few pieces of jewelry to honor his mother.

After the death of Gong Jian's grandparents, all these jewelry fell into the house of Gong Jian's uncle. Uncle Gong Jian took most of it and exchanged all the jewelry for silver, and a small part of it was in the hands of Uncle Gong Jian.

I occasionally encountered it a few times before, when the youngest son reached out to ask for money, he found that the silver in the family was not together, and Aunt Gong Jian also took out the jewelry and asked him to pawn it for money. Of course, it is inevitable that Uncle Gong Jian will secretly take some small jewelry back to her parents' house to make up for her parents' family.

So now, when Gong Yaozu heard that there was no money left at home, after accepting the reality, his first reaction was to ask his mother to take out those jewelry and pawn him for silver.

But what he didn't expect was that Uncle Gong Jian frowned in embarrassment, then shook her head and said, "Yaozu, those cleanups have also been pawned, and there is no longer anything in my mother's hands." ”

When Gong Yaozu heard this, he was indeed dumbfounded, he looked at his mother in front of him in disbelief, but Aunt Gong Jian nodded again firmly.

Gong Yaozu only found out at this time that the woman in front of him, I don't know when, most of her hair has turned gray, and there is no jewelry on her head, only a wooden hairpin, and her hair is tied together at will.

Gong Yaozu didn't pay much attention to the gray hair, he was just thinking, I don't know when it happened, his mother did not use any jewelry.

He still remembers that when he was a child, his mother got those jewels from his grandmother, but he was happy for a long time. In those days, my mother would always take turns to take those jewelry and go out to visit the door. In the process of chatting with other people, intentionally or unintentionally, she will touch the jewelry on her head, so that the envious and jealous eyes of those people fall on her.

But since when did the mother's head no longer have any jewelry?

It seems that what my mother said is also true, and those jewelry are slowly pawned. Gong Yaozu felt a pang of boredom in his heart. asked for money, but there was no money, and even things that could be pawned were gone, so how could he turn the book.

Now Gong Yaozu couldn't stay in one place quietly, he paced back and forth in the room restlessly and irritably, calculating in his mind what else was valuable at home. Either way, he's going to get some money.

This situation at home forced him to feel very necessary to hurry up and win some silver. You must know that his father and mother live in this remote mountain village, and they don't need to spend money, but he doesn't need money for anything in the town every day.

Suddenly, Gong Yaozu seemed to think of something, he quickly turned around, put his hands on Gong Jian's shoulders, and said eagerly: "Mother, I must get the money today." Otherwise, our husband's life would be in jeopardy, and he valued me the most in the private school, and having his recommendation would be of great help to my future career. ”

Uncle Gong Jian's mind was also in chaos, and at this time she could only remember two points in her mind, one was that he had to get the money tonight, and the other was that his husband was helpful to his son's officialdom.

Who is her youngest son? That is Wenqu Xing, who will become a big official in the future. In the future, he will be an old lady. His own family can also change the door in the future, and these all depend on his little son.

She nodded hurriedly, but said helplessly: "Yaozu, what you say is right, but the family really has no money, and the jewelry in my hand is long gone." It's not that I don't want to help you, sir, but we can't help it. ”

When Gong Yaozu heard his mother say this, his eyes flashed brightly, and he said softly, "Isn't there still so much land in our family?"

Gong Yaozu's gentle words made Aunt Gong Jian tremble, she never thought that her youngest son would actually hit the fields at home.

She hurriedly waved her hand and said, "No, no, no." Your father said that he would not sell the family's land. ”
