Chapter 241: Asking for Silver with a Ghost Child
When Du Pozi heard this, she was very remorseful, but it was a pity.
"Then I'll admit it? Wouldn't all our previous efforts be in vain! Will the mountains still be as good to us as they were before? Du Pozi muttered, she is still waiting for Du Dashan to earn her a life!
This edict was heard from the play, the son became an official and earned a decree for his hard-working mother. Ever since she heard that Du Dashan was an official, Du Pozi has been dreaming like this. She knew how to handle Du Dashan, if it weren't for the old man and her eldest son to stop her, she would have started to make trouble with Du Dashan.
Du Dahai was a little self-deprecating when he saw his mother like this, but now is not the time to be sad, and he must strive for the greatest benefit. Du Dashan is not the honest Du Dashan he used to be, especially when he knows his life experience, he is even more bottomless in his heart. Don't care about Du Dashan for now, you have to get back the five hundred taels of silver that were bet on the clan, which is the most important thing.
"Mother, this time Dashan is back different. He used to know what we were talking about, and he agreed. But when I came back this time, I will give you something, and I will send you and my father away. Even if we reconciled, Dashan didn't say anything. I don't think we're going to be able to benefit from the mountains in the future. Du Dahai said in a deep voice, he wanted to borrow strength from Du Dashan, but it would not work in the short term. Besides, he has five hundred taels of silver to weigh on his clan. If you annoy Du Dashan, you won't be able to get back the five hundred taels of hard-earned money.
"Then the five hundred taels of silver we took out were wasted?" Du Changhe's face was pale, five hundred taels of silver. If you buy land, you can buy hundreds of acres.
Du Pozi was also stunned, and her heart was like a knife cut, and asked, "Isn't it?" Isn't it? ”
Du Dahai thought for a while and said, "I won't be drifting!" Whether this money will be returned or not depends on the relationship between Dashan and our family. ”
"What's the relationship?" Du Pozi was stunned, "Even if it is an adoptive father and adoptive mother, we are also pulling the mountains to the big one, and he can still ignore us!" ”
Du Dahai was speechless when he saw his parents' ignorant appearance, and Du Dashan asked people to investigate. It proves that there is a different heart. I don't want to spend time with them.
"Dad, if the mountain is still ours, my silver will continue to be in the clan" Before Du Dahai finished speaking, he was interrupted by Du Changhe.
"You're saying the mountain is going to branch out?" Du Changhe's face turned even paler. This son has just made a living. and they will be set apart. Wouldn't it be a pity!
"No, I don't agree, I firmly disagree." Du Pozi was also unhappy. Although she is an old woman, she also knows that if she branches out, she won't want to take care of Du Dashan in the future.
Du Dahai smiled bitterly and said, "Dad, mother, you haven't seen the situation clearly, and now the patriarch is standing on Du Dashan's side." Dashan wants to branch, and you are not Dashan's biological parents, and there are clansmen to testify that you are not good to Dashan's family. In this way, even if it does not pass through you, the patriarch and the clan elders can still branch out to the mountain. The mountain is separated, which has an impact on us, but as long as the surname of the mountain is Du, it is still in our genealogy, it is only good for the clansmen, and there is no harm. ”
After listening to Du Dahai's words, Du Changhe, Du Pozi had no idea and asked, "Then what should I do now?" This son was let out for nothing? ”
"Of course it's not in vain, everything depends on Du Dashan and the attitude of the clan, if it's still the same as before, then we won't say anything, and don't return the money; If the sea is branched out, we will not only ask for the five hundred taels of silver, but also give you two elders the silver for their old age. Du Dahai said with a gloomy face, in the past, he could still use his own bloodline to oppress Du Dashan, but after the truth was announced, this method would not work.
It's just that Du Dashan can be unpretentious to his brothers, but he must fulfill his obligation to support his adoptive father and adoptive mother.
"Dashan's daughter-in-law has already given us filial piety silver!" Du Changhe said puzzled, not understanding his son's words.
Du Dahai smiled proudly and said: "What is that little filial piety, as long as the mountain branches out, a few brothers and I will not be able to touch the light of the mountain, so you should be more filial."
"And how much does that cost?" Du Pozi's eyes flickered, she saw Du Dashan's transformation in her eyes, and wanted Dashan to be as filial to her as before, it was impossible, so she could only get more benefits for herself.
Du Dahai pouted and said: "He is now an official, and he has such a big workshop at home, of course, the filial piety of his adoptive parents cannot be missing, at least fifty taels of silver a month."
"What?" Du Changhe's eyes widened, "Fifty taels of silver?" Six hundred taels of silver a year? ”
If he can really ask for so much silver, even if Du Dashan doesn't help his sons and daughters, it doesn't matter, he can still live a good life at home.
"Six hundred taels of silver? Okay, then six hundred taels of silver. Du Pozi's eyes lit up, if she could have so much money in a year, Du Dashan would not obey her as much as before, it didn't matter, as long as she had money.
While a few people here were discussing how much they could get from Du Dashan, Du Jiumei and the others were so excited that they couldn't sleep!
Du Jiumei couldn't fall asleep as if she was flipping over and over.
Du Qimei, who has always slept well, was also so noisy that Du Jiumei couldn't sleep, so she had to turn over, suppress Du Jiumei's body, and muttered: "Xiao Jiu'er, why don't you sleep yet?" ”
Guests came to the house, and the two sisters lived on a kang.
Du Jiumei, who had wide eyes in the night, smiled and said, "Seventh sister, aren't you happy at all?" ”
Du Qimei said in a sullen voice: "What's so happy, it's not that you have to live." Don't think about it, that's an adult's business, with my father and mother here, we won't be allowed to suffer. ”
Du Jiumei leaned sideways and said with a smile: "That's what I said, but when I think of not needing to call the grandparents of the mansion in the future, I can't sleep with excitement." ”
"Hehe, I'm very happy. But we can only do this at home, not outside, and we will be called unfilial. Du Qimei explained, worried that Xiao Jiu'er was young and would talk nonsense outside, which would affect her reputation.
"I know, Seventh Sister!" Du Jiumei promised, "It's like a dream, my father is back, and the family has built a big workshop, and there are so many uncles." It's a good day like this, and I really want to go on like this. ”
Du Jiumei also has a huge secret, her father is the father in her previous life, which is the greatest joy. She Du Jiumei has done a few lifetimes of good deeds to have such an opportunity!
Express her happy mood with a sentence from her previous life: thank the sky, thank the earth, thank fate! (To be continued......)
