Gui Da hurriedly said: "Got it, thank you, eldest sister." We'll have to go early. In our family, we have been illiterate for several lifetimes, and if we can make children literate, it is better than anything else. ”

Gui Yuxia nodded. Then he asked, "It's time to start sowing seeds these days, right?" Can you still sow seeds in this weather? Last time, the people of the black family came to say, what do they want to plant? My big cow said it, and I didn't take it to heart. ”

Gui Da hurriedly said: "The people of the Hei family said that this land is full of trees, although the trees have been cut down, but if you want the soil to loosen quickly and become a fertile field, you will have to raise it for a few years, so you can't plant anything else at first, let's plant sweet potatoes." This thing, not picky, is much longer and grows faster. It's effortless. We bought sweet potato seeds. ”

Gui Yuxia nodded and said, "Yes, I see, your big brother Niu also bought seeds, as if he said that he would also plant cotton?" ”

Gui Da hurriedly said: "Yes, Brother Da Niu has more land, and he wants to plant some cotton on good land." Yes, you are buying cotton in Xinguang City now, and you spend a lot of money, if only we produced cotton ourselves, it would be good. The county lord can spend less. ”

Gui Yuxia smiled and said, "You have to learn more from your big bull brother, he is a person who knows gratitude." ”

Before Gui Da could speak, Gui Laohan said: "People in our family, I talk every day, we all have to thank the county lord, or we can buy a family business here, if anyone is not grateful, my old man will be the first to knock on whom." "The people in the courtyard hurriedly said, don't dare, don't dare.

Gui Yuxia smiled and said, "Okay, father, there is no such person in our family. By the way, I still have something to talk to you two about. We all have our own homes, and we all bought furniture to live in. Isn't it time to marry Gui Er and his little sister? I have now won two places in the second batch of residences, and I can buy two yards so that Gui Er and my little sister can get married. Such a marriage. You can live in your own little yard. Xiaomei doesn't have to be subject to her mother-in-law like Jin Xia. ”

As soon as she said this, Mrs. Gui was happy, and hurriedly said: "That's good, it's just right, I think Yinxia and their mother-in-law's family have a large population, and there are many things to do when they enter the door, so it's okay." We hurriedly said to our in-laws. Let's get married. ”

Gui Yuxia was about to speak, but the old man Gui said, "How can you get married?" I don't have any brains at all. Our family is now investing money in buying land and houses. Buy seeds, buy furniture, buy livestock, horse-drawn carts. And the seeds, the farm tools are on. I also bought a Japanese slave, which looks like a scenery. It's a little stronger than in Da Chu. There are hundreds of acres of fields outside the city, and there are houses in the city, and it is much better to live in than a house in Dachu. The furniture was much better too. And the carriage. There are big animals. This look is better than the rich man in our village before. But we know it ourselves. We only bought it with a loan. There is interest every day, although the interest is not high. However, with the money I owe to the county lord, I will be able to sleep soundly one day. There are hundreds of acres of land outside our city, but they have just been cleared, when will we be able to recover the capital? ”

Hearing this, Mrs. Gui also became worried. Gui Da hurriedly said: "It's better to get married at home, we have just arrived in this place, what money can we have?" Isn't it easy to do? ”

Gui's daughter-in-law glanced at Gui Da and didn't say anything.

Gui Yuxia is used to looking at people's faces in the palace, and it can be seen at a glance that in fact, Gui's wife does not want her younger siblings to marry at home. After all, this yard was bought by the Gui family.

Gui Yuxia smiled and said, "It's better to separate." Gui Da bought 300 acres of land, and Gui Er borrowed money to buy 200 acres of land, which can be regarded as a person with industry. If Gui Er can buy another house, he will be a resident in the future. Naturally, children can also go to school. For the sake of the children, let's buy a house. I've planned it, Guida's house, I inquired, there are two houses in this second batch of houses that are very good, one is four taels, the other is five taels, a total of only nine taels. It's all small, so I'll bring the silver paper, and you will let Gui Er and Third Sister buy it when the time comes. As for the other things you need to get married, go and consult with your mothers yourself. ”

After speaking, he took out two chapters of silver paper from his arms and handed them to Gui Laohan.

Gui Laohan didn't go to ask: "Have you discussed this money with Da Niu?" Although you are their sister, you are now Da Niu's daughter-in-law, and you have to discuss with Da Niu. ”

Mrs. Gui was already about to reach out to pick it up, but when she heard this, she retracted her hand again and looked at her daughter.

Gui Yuxia said: "This is what Da Niu asked me to bring." As you know, we have just two fine rosewood in our field, so we have a lot more money to sell them. In addition, I have a lot of money every month. Therefore, the family's silver has not been used up, and Da Niu said that it is a big deal for younger brothers and sisters to get married. Hurry up. They can also buy a property earlier as a young couple. Originally, he was going to deliver it himself, but because there was something wrong with the family carriage, he had to clean it up, so he asked me to send it over. ”

Gui Laohan didn't say anything, and Gui Pozi hurriedly reached out and took the silver, very happy.

Gui Yuxia found that Gui's wife breathed a sigh of relief. Gui Yuxia smiled, chatted with her father and mother for a while, and then entered her sister's house. My sister was alone in the house, her face flushed.

Gui Yuxia said: "Yinxia, don't be shy. Soon you're going to get married. I've brought you a few things to add to the dowry when the time comes. ”

After speaking, he took out a red cloth bag, which was wrapped in a few things, and when he opened it, Gui Yinxia found that it was a silver hairpin, a silver bracelet, a gold ring, and a red gold distraction. Although the silver hairpin was made of silver, it was very complicated and heavy, with carved pavilions and fairies on it. Gui Yinxia is not the small mountain village girl she used to be, she has been in the workshop for so long and has crossed the sea, she can be regarded as having seen some of the world.

Gui Yinxia hurriedly said: "Such a good thing, it must still be brought out of the palace by my sister at the beginning, right?" I can't take it. ”

Gui Yuxia hurriedly said, "Be quiet." This thing is given to you individually. You're the youngest, and you're about to get married. You should have heard what I was saying in the yard just now. I asked my father and mother to tell your mother-in-law that I would pay for you to buy a small yard, which is very cheap. By the way, if their family doesn't give him a land, you can go to the steward to take out a loan to buy a few hundred acres of land, and let that person go to open up the wasteland, so that the two of you can become residents of Qingchun City, and in the future you can see a doctor for free and your children can go to school for free. It's also a place where it can be counted. ”

Gui Yinxia was very grateful to her sister for her plan, and said with a red face: "This silver hairpin, at first glance, is not something that can be bought in ordinary places, it must have been obtained by you from the palace." Where can I wear something so valuable? There's nowhere to sell this thing for money now. ”

Gui Yuxia said: "This is not a good thing I brought out from the palace, I keep all my things." But the workmanship of this object is better, you are now a second-class embroiderer like your second sister, with a salary of 800 big dollars per month, and there are rewards during the New Year's holidays. There's nothing wrong with feeding the two of you. When you get married, you will have to give two taels of silver in the workshop. So, don't worry, life will be better in the future. If you earn money to support your family, let your mouth rest assured and bold to take out a loan to buy land, and work diligently, so that you can buy a foundation, and you will not be a rich man in the future? ”

Gui Yinxia nodded and said, "Thank you, eldest sister." That person is actually a real person, and he works very hard. If the family is more populous and poorer, they may not give us land. That's nothing, we don't need it, I'll take out a loan when the time comes, buy land, buy slaves, buy livestock, like the second sister, and build a home, it must be no worse than others. My sister can rest assured. ”

Gui Yuxia nodded and said, "You and Jin Xia are very capable, you see, others are just a third-class embroidery girl, and you are already second-class." I'm going to start teaching you more complicated acupuncture in a few days, learn hard, with the talent of the two of you, you will definitely be able to learn it quickly, and when the time comes, you should be able to catch up with the assessment in two months, which is first-class. You can pay one or two a month a month, and you can also bring apprentices. If you bring out five apprentices and become a little steward, it will be five taels a month. It is to borrow a loan of 500 taels, and the fields will not be collected at all, and the monthly money alone can be repaid in a few years. If the fields are planted better, maybe like us, we will pay back the money in half a year or a year. ”

Gui Yinxia was surprised: "How long have we been in Luzon Island, how can you repay the loan?" ”

Gui Yuxia said: "Originally, I didn't have much money to borrow. I myself have five hundred taels of settling-in allowance, and a dowry of one hundred taels. Not to mention, there are still ten taels of silver per month. All the way, it was the money spent by the county lord, and the monthly money was praised. Therefore, after coming, he spent money on the purchase of Japanese slaves, land, livestock, wagons, farm tools, and seeds, and when it was not enough, he borrowed a hundred taels of money. However, as you know, we took five hundred acres of land, and because we found two precious pieces of wood, we sold them for a little more, and we earned two or three hundred taels back. I hurriedly repaid the loan of 100 taels with principal and interest. After paying it back now, there is still some leftover, but your big brother Niu still has to buy farm tools, seeds, and some livestock, and the rest is almost at the disposal of the remaining money now. In the future, when we have a surplus at hand, I will help you repay the loan, so that you can pay me back when you have money in the future. I don't want interest, and you can live a lighter life. ”

Gui Yinxia heard that her sister and brother-in-law had thought about everything for her, and she was so moved that she could only hold her sister's hand tightly. (To be continued)
