Chapter 194: Subsidizing the Family
Chen Shangshu came to his son's residence, he didn't know if the little couple was in the bedroom, and he was embarrassed to go in, so he had to linger at the door, Xiaochun came out of something, saw Chen Shangshu standing at the door of his own lady, and hurriedly asked: "Master Chen, are you okay?" ”
"Xiaobo, are they in there?"
"Miss and Auntie, they are resting in the room, are you okay? If anything, I'll go and wake them up for you. ”
Chen Shangshu said embarrassedly: "Xiaochun, you go and wake them up, I have something to discuss with them." ”
Koharu came to the door of Caiyun's bedroom and gently tapped the door a few times.
Lu Caiyun and Chen Bo were about to lie down and rest, when they heard someone knocking on the door and hurriedly asked, "Who?" Can I help you? ”
"Miss is me, Master Chen is here, I'm sorry to disturb you, I'm in the yard now." Koharu said as he stood outside the door.
Caiyun heard that Chen Shangshu was in his yard, looked at Chen Bo and asked, "Xianggong, my father-in-law is here, won't it be to ask for silver to supplement the family's affairs?" ”
Chen Bo grinned and said, "How do I know." ”
"You let my father-in-law go to the guest room first, and I'll change my clothes and go."; Lu Caiyun hurriedly got up and took out a pink dress from the closet to change into.
Chen Bo got up and straightened his clothes and came to the courtyard, and when he saw his father standing there, he hurriedly asked, "Daddy, why are you here?" ”
Chen Shangshu said embarrassedly: "I want to discuss something with you, what about Xiaoyun?" ”
"She said to come to see you when she changed her dress, let's come to the guest room and sit down first!" Chen Bo introduced his father into the guest room, and asked Xiaochun to pour tea.
The father and son were chatting in the guest room, when they saw Caiyun coming in, Lu Caiyun saw his father-in-law, and hurriedly said, "Daughter-in-law see father-in-law." ”
"No need to be polite, sit down, Daddy just has something to discuss with you." Chen Shangshu said politely to Lu Caiyun, you must know that he has something to ask for his son and daughter-in-law.
Lu Caiyun had already guessed the approximate, and said with a smile: "Daddy, tell me something quickly!" ”
"That's it, Xiaoyun, Xiaobo. You should also know that Daddy's money is just that, and there are probably dozens of people in the house, young and old! They have to eat and dress every day, and even if they are in the province, they must not be starved to death! "Chen Shangshu really can't say anything, he wants silver taels.
"Daddy, these daughters-in-law know, you name it! The house probably needs how much silver per month to get by, "After eating vegetarian food for so many days, Lu Caiyun also wants to improve."
"The current cost is thirty taels a month, and it is only to buy vegetables and grain, not including meat, and the people in the house also have to dress, even if they don't wear silk and satin, Mrs. and Miss must always wear it! And those maids and women, although the expenses are smaller, but there are also expenses, you also know Daddy, I have five or six hundred taels of silver all year round, even if I am frugal and not enough to spend, a few days ago I almost couldn't open the pot, your mother became a bracelet, exchanged for some silver, just barely survived, you also know that there is no meat to eat in the house for three months. ”
"Daddy, if it's not like this, I will pay thirty taels of silver a month to supplement the family, I drive a silk Zhuangzi, and I will make the clothes of Xianggong and Xiaochun and a few of their maids by ourselves, what do you think?" Caiyun looked at Chen Shangshu and said.
When Chen Shangshu heard Caiyun, he promised to pay 30 taels a month to supplement his family. Busy said happily: "Xiaoyun, if you can give thirty taels of silver to supplement the family, it will be a great help to my father, and my father is deeply grateful for the old and young people in the house." ”
"Father-in-law doesn't have to be polite, I'm also from Shangshu Mansion, so I should share some of it for you. If you take these first, it will be Caiyun's food money this month. After Caiyun finished speaking, he took out thirty taels of broken silver from his purse and handed it to Chen Shangshu.
Chen Shangshu hurriedly took the silver tael, put it in his arms and said: "Even so, Daddy is welcome, there is nothing else, you go back to the room to rest!" Daddy went back too. ”
"Daddy walks slowly."
Sending Chen Shangshu away, Chen Bo looked at Lu Caiyun and said regretfully: "Xiaoyun, you just took out thirty taels of silver, and it was thirty taels a month, and it was three hundred and sixty taels a year, you are really generous, how many pieces of silk do we have to sell to earn it back." ”
"Xianggong, are you reluctant?" Caiyun looked at Chen Bo and smiled.
"Of course I can't bear it, if this is the case, it is better for us to buy a house and move out, at least we don't have to pay money every month for the people in the house to consume." Chen Bo inhaled distressedly.
"Don't be so stingy, aren't you from Shangshufu? Would you like to eat a vegetarian diet for three meals a day, but I don't want to, I want to eat meat. Caiyun suddenly looked at Chen Bo and smiled.
"I also want to eat meat, but as soon as the money reaches my mother's hands, I'm afraid I won't be able to eat meat."
"Don't worry, the silver is from me, your father, he will have an explanation." Caiyun gave money to supplement the family, firstly, to see Chen Shangshu's face, and secondly, she wanted to give Mrs. Chen a step down.
Seeing what Chen Bo wanted to say, Caiyun looked at him and said: "Don't say anything, as long as you go to Zhuangzi to do things well, don't gamble, no matter how much money you want to make, it will not be a problem."
"I know that you can do it, wife, and you can earn silver, so let's go and rest, and when we have rested, we will go to Zhuangzi and earn back the silver that comes out." Chen Bo put his arm around Caiyun's waist, and the two went back to the bedroom to rest.
Although Chen Shangshu was a little embarrassed, he had to ask for silver from his daughter-in-law in order to make a living, but he was also very pleased to look at the silver in his hand, after all, this month's living expenses were solved.
Mrs. Chen was in the courtyard early, and when her father-in-law came back, she saw Chen Shangshu walking into the courtyard and hurriedly asked, "What's going on, they can't come up with any money?" ”
"Xiaoyun promised to give thirty taels of silver a month to supplement the family, and gave you this month, but Xiaoyun put forward a condition, at least ten taels of silver a month to buy meat for the people in the house to sacrifice their teeth." Chen Shangshu was afraid that his wife would use all the silver given by Caiyun to sell clothes and jewelry, so he hurriedly made this request in the name of Caiyun.
"Driving such a big Zhuangzi,. I was only willing to pay thirty taels of silver, and I mentioned the conditions," Old Madam Chen pouted very dissatisfied with Lu Caiyun.
"Our monthly food expenses are only thirty taels, and people give thirty taels in one breath, what are you not satisfied with, no wonder people say that people's hearts are not enough to swallow elephants, people don't pay out of silver, you dislike it, you dislike it, you dislike it when you get out of the silver, what do you want people to do to be satisfied, no wonder Xiaobo, don't want to pay attention to you." Chen Shangshu was dissatisfied with his own lady and said-
