Chapter Ninety-Five: There is a successor to the third room
Du Changshun listened to the words of his second brother Du Changhe on the side, and secretly reassured that this younger brother was not confused to the top. What I just said has taken care of all my sons.
Although these nephews are a little out of tune, they are not completely incorrigible. Knowing filial piety to the elders proves that there is still a bit of conscience.
Seeing that his grandfather didn't mention their three rooms, Du Wulang stepped forward and said, "Grandpa, you just asked the three uncles and uncles to give you pension money and food." Although my father is gone, I, as the eldest son of the third room, will also provide for you. I will give two taels of silver a year, as for the grain, 50 catties of rice, 50 catties of wheat, three festivals a year, and I will return to my grandfather to give a gift. ”
When everyone heard Du Wulang's words, they were stunned, ouch, this kid's tone is not small!
"Goro, your father is also for the good of your orphans and widows, I don't want your silver and food, you don't want to be reckless!" Du Changshun persuaded and explained, two taels of silver is not a small amount, plus food, festivals, four taels of silver a year. For a farmer, this is not a small amount.
Du Changhe nodded and said, "Wulang, it's good that you have this heart, I can't ask for this money." Your father is gone, I don't take good care of you, I'm already very guilty, and a hundred years later, when I go underground, it's hard to explain to your father. ”
As long as Du Changhe is in front of Du Changshun, his brain is clear and knows right and wrong.
Du Wulang's heart was sour, and he said softly: "Grandpa, grandpa, I can afford this money, this year the family sold some watermelons, and my mother embroidered flowers and saved a little money." If we are not filial to our elders, we will not feel at ease when we spend more money. If my father had known that we didn't honor my grandfather, he would have disappointed him as well. ”
Old lady Du saw Du Wulang's performance on the side, and said with emotion: "Changhe, what a good child this is, treat them well in the future, don't make such and such a thing." ”
Gorou's words today, although simple, show that there are successors to the third room. Really stood up.
Before, Du Pozi was looking for trouble, but she didn't make Dashan's wife suffer, it was rare that Dashan's daughter-in-law and Wulang and others were good, and they didn't repay their grievances with grievances. On the contrary, it is to repay virtue with resentment.
Du Changhe's tears were bursting, and he choked up: "Okay, they are all good children." ”
Du Pozi lowered her head on the side, and all kinds of calculations emerged in her heart! This Du Wulang said that they could afford the money, and also said that the watermelon was sold for money. Being so generous, he must have made a lot of money. Otherwise, with the stinginess of the Yang family's slut, he would definitely not be so generous.
Du Pozi wanted to be born, but when she raised her head and saw the patriarch, Li Zheng, and the eldest uncle all on the side, she didn't dare to speak out. These people have long had opinions about her, if they asked the Yang family for money at this time, wouldn't they be inferior and unreasonable?
Well. Yes, there will be time in the future, and there will be more benefits from the Yang family.
This seems reasonable, but there are actually many unreasonable points. In the past, Du Dahai and Du Dahai went to the county seat to make money, and they had to pay half of their wages to the palace every month, and the boys' dowries and banquets were all public. But now that it is divided like this, who will pay for the child's relatives in the future?
Liu Guihua thought that her two sons were not young, and they were recently talking about their relatives in the county town and paying more money. It also looks better on the face.
"Dad, mother, Da Lang is talking about kissing, and he will be hired in a few days. This bride price "In front of everyone, Liu Guihua didn't want to ask for money directly, and said that in the end, there was no voice.
Wu Cuihua understood in her heart, yes, what about her son's dowry?
Fortunately, there is Liu Guihua here, and she doesn't need to be a villain. However, Liu Guihua has two sons. I want to have double portions, and I take advantage of it.
"It's all handed over to your own family, and let me pay the bride price, no way." Du Pozi was angry, thinking that the eldest son and the second son's family were going to the county seat in the future, and only the younger son's family lived together, and there was only a fixed amount of filial piety money every year, and she was already unhappy. didn't hand over the money, and wanted her to pay the bride price, no way.
"Shut up!" Du Changhe scolded, as he said before, the bride money for each grandson was all from the public school, and now although it is clear, he can't deny the previous words.
Du Pozi was about to refute, but when she saw Du Changhe's stern eyes, she had to swallow the words in her mouth.
Old Patriarch Du, Wang Lizheng, Du Changshun saw Du Changhe and hard, he was very approving, the family was discussing a big matter, what did a confused old lady say. If it weren't for this old lady messing around, it wouldn't have been possible to get to where it is today.
"The dowry of each grandson is six taels of silver, and the granddaughter is three taels of dowry, which is a part of my heart as a grandfather." Du Changhe thought about it, and his family had saved a lot of money over the years, and he could still take out a few dozen taels of silver.
Du Pozi's eyes widened, and she said angrily: "Old man, where did you get so much money!" "She takes money, but never pays.
"The land at home, the money from selling fat pigs can be used for daily expenses, and the money that the sea and the river have handed over in the accounts outside in the past few years, where have you used it?" Du Changhe asked coldly, if there was no silver at home, he wouldn't believe it.
Mrs. Du's eyes rolled slightly, and she didn't dare to look at Du Changhe, she had seventy or eighty taels of silver in her hand, but most of them were borrowed by her nephew and never paid back.
"If you want to give, just give, I have nothing to say." Du Pozi was worried that Du Changhe would settle the account with her, so she quickly muttered a few words.
Seeing that Du Pozi didn't say anything, Du Changhe looked at the children and grandchildren in front of him again, and said, "I don't have the ability, that's all the money, it's not enough, you can prepare it yourself." ”
Du Dahai saw that his father was fair, and said, "Okay, just do it, I have no opinion." ”
Others also said they had no opinion.
Mrs. Du took up a deed, seven copies, Du Changhe, Du Dahai, Du Dahe, Du Dahu, and Du Wulang each had one in their hands. The patriarch put a copy there, and Wang Lizheng also kept a copy as a witness. Whoever does not comply with the above agreement will be punished in the future.
After getting these things done, everyone scattered and went home. Originally, this neat person was supposed to be left to eat, but everyone saw that Du Pozi was distressed about the money, and she drooped her face, and she didn't want to stay for dinner.
Yang's, Du Wulang didn't want to stay here longer, so he said goodbye and left, and the silver of this year's filial piety will be sent over tomorrow, so as not to send it late, and Du Pozi will have to find something again.
After the Yang family and Du Wulang left, Liu Guihua found Wu Cuihua and asked in a low voice: "The watermelons in the third brother and sister's house were sold for a lot of money?" ”
Wu Cuihua pursed her lips, knowing that this sister-in-law was unprofitable and could not afford to be early, it was estimated that she had hit the idea of watermelon in the third brother and sister's house, shook her head and said: "I haven't been out for a while, I don't know this!"
