Everyone else lives in their new yard and laughs, but Gui Jinxia's house is constantly crying. Gui Jinxia didn't want to pay attention to it, this cry came from her mother-in-law. Because of her mother-in-law, the family lost two taels of silver, which is a lot of money for a farmer. The old man naturally beat the old woman unceremoniously. The old woman did something wrong and ran out of money, so she was naturally sad, and she was beaten and cried even more. In fact, the old woman herself is also a thrifty person, and she has relied on thrift all her life, taking a little if she can, and saving a little if she can, so that she can live her life and raise a few children. Now, because of her own reasons, she has lost two taels of silver in vain, and she is also very guilty. These two taels of silver, in the countryside of Dachu, how long do you have to earn, the year is good, don't think about it without two years of hard work. Thinking of this, the old woman was even more sad.

After the old man beat the old woman, he took the old woman to convene his son, and the daughter-in-law held a family meeting, and from then on, the old man announced that the right to be a housekeeper was handed over to Gui Jinxia, and the old woman could not interfere in the future, and the daughter-in-law would listen to whatever she said.

Although the old woman felt that her rights were taken away by her daughter-in-law, she was unhappy, but who let herself make a mistake, so she could only pinch her nose and admit it.

Gui Jinxia is a smart person, can you still know that during this period of time, her mother-in-law is angry that she can make money, her mother's family is powerful, and she is uncomfortable everywhere, but what can she do as a daughter-in-law? can only accept it, and now, because of this incident, although he lost two taels of silver, he can make money. Now you can have 800 big money a month. Two taels of silver is just three months' monthly money. What's it, when she thought that her mother-in-law, who had been riding on her head for many years in the future, finally couldn't tell her, Gui Jinxia couldn't help but be happy.

At night, Gui Jinxia talked to her husband under the lamp: "Since my father-in-law has given me the right to be a housekeeper, my mother-in-law has also taken out all the silver paper in the house for me to keep it. I think. It's better to buy two Japanese slaves. When it was in Shin Kong City. I wanted to buy a slave, but my mother-in-law wouldn't let me. You see, my eldest brother and second brother brought people to help with all the work on the ground, or I would have worked in the workshop in the house. Can you and your father-in-law complete the work of these hundreds of acres of land? ”

Gui Jinxia's husband said: "No, you can't always trouble the child's uncle?" I also agreed to buy a Japanese slave. How cheap the Japanese slaves in Shin Kong City are. Brother Da Niu bought five, you see, their family has more land, and he is the only one who works. Instead, we cut down trees faster than we do. Although it cost more than 200 taels of silver to buy the 500 acres of land, but. In the past two months, it has been five hundred acres of land alone. I heard that they were sold for more than three hundred taels of silver. How much did it cost to buy those five Japanese slaves? It cost almost a hundred taels of silver. You see, the money is coming back soon. It's a few dozen taels, by the way, and bought a yard, which is not what it is, their family has a small population, and they should have bought a four taels of silver like us, but they want to buy a big one, and this time it is almost ten taels of silver. Because, all the money that went out of people's homes has come back. ”

Gui Jinxia said: "No, it's not because their eldest brother listens to my eldest sister's words for everything. Although my eldest sister has been in the palace for so many years and doesn't understand these things in the outside world, she often follows the chief steward in the county lord's mansion and the deputy city lords. Just like this time, why do you want to buy a big house, it is because the deputy city lord Wan Daren asked my eldest sister to make a new style of clothes, and the eldest sister made it very good for her. She knew that the eldest sister was more important to the county lord, so she said a few words to the eldest sister, and said to the eldest sister that if she wanted to buy a house, she would buy the bigger one and sell it in the future. You can also make a profit. Of course, the eldest sister listened. Besides, what is this silver, the eldest sister is the big steward, and these are just a month's monthly money. The deputy city lord Lord Wan not only instructed my eldest sister, but also rewarded my eldest sister with a red gold ring. Plum blossom-shaped, but beautiful. In fact, a few days ago, I took my sisters in my group to make a batch of orders, and the employer was very happy, gave the money very neatly, and also set the next batch of orders, which was more than the previous batch. Sister Cuiqiao, who was in charge, was very happy and rewarded me with a silver earring. Although the silver used is not much, the workmanship is really good. How can you pull out such a thin silver wire and twist it into a flower? I don't want to wear it. ”

Gui Jinxia's husband was busy saying: "I still know how to make money quickly, it's much better than doing farm work." Hey, I should listen to you, buy a few more slaves, so that when the land is turned over and planted, I will hand it over to my father, and I will go to the master to learn the craft, so that I can also make money in the future. Or maybe it's some kind of business, it's fine. You see, how many people are waiting to eat, how many people are working, and in the future, everyone will have money in their hands, they will all have to buy things, they will have to live, and it is better to do a business than to do farm work. ”

Gui Jinxia said: "This is true. In this way, we still have some money in our hands, and I have also borrowed a sum of money, and the timber in our field is not so valuable, but it is more than eighty taels of silver. Let's buy a few slaves first, and then buy some livestock, such as oxen, horses, etc., and we have to have a carriage, so that it is easier to go back and forth. It's like Big Bull. It's also convenient for you to manage it in the future. So that we can do the geography work very quickly, and you can go into a business, or learn a trade or something. Let me tell you, my eldest sister said that I was smarter than her in learning needlework. She also taught me hand-in-hand. I practice more diligently, never pick work, this is a lot of work, naturally the hand is faster, my eldest sister said, according to this, I will soon be able to learn more advanced acupuncture, and when I learn, I can go up to the next level. That's a tael of silver a month. ”

When Gui Jinxia's husband heard this, his eyes lit up and he said, "What you said is true. However, it should also be, originally, you are the best needlework girl in your village, otherwise, my mother is so shrewd, how could it be possible, go to your village, and specially hire you over. When you come to our village, there are so many big girls and little daughters-in-law in our village, which one has your needlework? You were born. Now, the eldest sister has taught you the best stitching method, can it not be a first-class one? ”

Gui Jinxia said: "Hmph, your family just wanted me to work." What else do I not know? Sue you. When the time comes, if I can recruit a few apprentices, once the apprentices also come out of the school and become the lowest level of needlework, I will be able to take the monthly money of the little steward, five taels of silver a month. ”

Gui Jinxia's husband said with a golden light in his eyes: "Five taels a month, sixty taels a year, which is comparable to the full price of these timbers for our 200 acres of geography." ”

Gui Jinxia smiled and said: "No, you have to listen to me, let's hurry up and buy the slaves, livestock, and carriages, hey, now, the price of these slaves is much more expensive than the price in Xinguang City, which are all sold by those merchants, and each one costs thirty taels of silver." It's ten taels more expensive. I really regret why I was my mother-in-law's housekeeper in the first place, and I had so much extra silver. Maybe if you don't buy it now, it may be more expensive in the future, so buy it all. If I don't have any money, I'll borrow it from the house. With my sister's face, with my second-class needlework, I can still borrow it. Do your best. Let's see if you can learn a trade, or start a business or something. ”

Gui Jinxia's husband hurriedly agreed. He is also full of joy that his daughter-in-law can be in charge, after all, his mother is old, her concept can't keep up, she blindly saves money, she doesn't know the capital, she doesn't know how to invest, where can she make money?

Gui Jinxia's affairs, Gui Yuxia also knows. The housekeeper's right is in the hands of her sister-in-law, can she not be happy? She happened to have time that day, so she went to visit her parents in the courtyard of Gui University, the two families are actually very close and share a wall, so Gui Jinxia can go back to her parents' house every day. Imagine your life before, at that time, you may not have seen your relatives in your life, but now, you can see them every day. Not only does she have a husband, but she can also live with her mother's family, and God is really good to her.

Gui Yuxia entered the courtyard of her mother's house, Gui Da and Gui Er were busy tidying up the yard there, and Gui Laohan was resting. Gui Jinxia greeted everyone, and after that, sitting in the courtyard, the weather in Nanyang was really hot. Gui Yuxia said: "How is this geography organized? ”

Gui Da said: "It's almost over, and we also helped the second sister to sort it out." The trees were cut down. The family has also moved. By the way, when will the children be able to go to class? Doesn't it mean that people like us, who have land outside the city and houses in the city, can be residents of Qingchun City? Will our children be able to attend classes for free? ”

Gui Yuxia smiled and said, "Yes, I saw Miss Qiubi today and asked." Miss Qiubi said, the school, the hospital, and the courtyard where the county lord lives are all built first, and now the courtyard where the county lord lives has built a small courtyard, which is enough for the county lord to live, and the rest of the pavilions and pavilions are all put first, and when the city is built, there is free time, and then it will be built. However, the hospital was built first, and all of them have already begun to be used. The school hall has also been built, of course, Qiu Bi also said that one of these schools is not enough, at least one in each of the four cities. Now I've built this one first, and I'll use it for the children who are residents. The day after tomorrow, it's time to sign up for the school. You must remember to inform our relatives to go to the school to sign up. If you go to the morning newspaper early, if you go late, you will have to wait for the second school to be built. Don't think about working that day, right? Children are more important than work. (To be continued)
