84. Maintenance (the ninth day of the second month)

Meng Mingzhou looked at the ground with his eyes lowered, and waited for Su Rui's sisters and brothers to walk away, he raised his head and looked at Su Rui who was walking away from the courtyard, he had heard the conversation of Su Rui's sisters and sisters in the courtyard just now, and he also understood Su Rui's difficulties.

Su Rui explained on the way how her younger siblings should behave and say what they should say when they arrived, and the younger siblings nodded in unison.

Uncle Su saw that Su Rui's sister and sister had come over for a long time, so he snorted and said, "It's really patient to let a room of elders wait, not in a hurry at all." ”

Su Rui looked at Uncle Su aggrievedly and said, "Uncle, it's not that I don't want to come early, the main thing is that Chen Nan is still young, I have to change his clothes before I can come, otherwise what should I do if I get sick?" ”

Uncle Su wanted to say something, but Su Zheng waved his hand and said, "It's okay, the child is small, and you should pay attention." ”

Uncle Su held his mouth in one breath, and his face turned red with anger.

Su Rui won the first round with a "yes" in her heart.

Clansman A, "Girl Surui, what your grandmother means is that your father and mother have passed away, but as their children, you should also support them. ”

Su Rui nodded, this support for the elderly should be done in both modern and ancient times, as long as the requirements are not excessive, she can accept it.

"Supporting the elderly is right, I agree with this."

Uncle Su and Uncle Su glanced at each other and smiled proudly at each other.

Su Rui glanced at the eye contact between Uncle Su and the others, if she didn't know that they were thinking of crooked ideas again? Su Rui sneered.

"But how do you support it? This should be written clearly, it is best to write it in triplicate, one for ourselves and one for our three rooms, and one for each person, and one for the clan. ”

Clan Lao Bing nodded, he knew what the consequences of not making it clear would look like, "What Su Rui said is right, how to support this in the future is to make it clear." ”

Sulu also looked at Su Rui with satisfaction, he was worried about whether she would suffer at first, but it seemed that there was no need to worry.

"Rui girl is right, Brother Su Zheng, you are the patriarch, you have to take care of this matter, otherwise you will set a precedent, and you will learn one in the future, do we still have a good reputation in our clan."

Sulu looked at his eldest brother's dark face, and thought to himself, "Who made you not restrain yourself from a good wife, son." Deserve! ”

Su Zheng knocked down the cigarette stick, "What your grandmother means is one or two silver a month, and you pay it once a year." ”

Su Rui raised her eyebrows, her heart was really dark, "I pay one or two, so how much do my uncles pay?" ”

Uncle Su shouted on the side: "It's none of your business, there must be more than you." ”

Su Rui's eyes were red and she said, "More than me?" You and your uncle eat and live in the old house, even if you have money, your grandmother gives it, can you have more than me? ”

"Besides, we have a total of fifty taels of silver left, and even if we don't spend a penny later, it will only be enough for four years. Clan elders here, can you help you calculate, how many sisters and sisters do we have, may there be no place to spend money in the future? ”

Su Wan received Su Rui's eyes, and immediately hugged Su Rui and cried bitterly, "Eldest sister, eldest sister, is grandpa trying to force us to death?" Woo woo... I miss my mom and dad. I want my mom and dad. ”

Su Qiao also hugged Su Ying and sobbed, although Su Chenrui didn't cry loudly, his eyes were red staring at Uncle Su.

Su Chennan didn't know why, why did the brother and sister who were fine just now suddenly cry, he hugged Su Rui's neck in fear, "Woo woo, eldest sister, Chen Nan is afraid, go home, go home." ”

Su Ruixin said, "Chen Nan, Chen Nan." You're really a good brother of the eldest sister, and you're so good at finding rhythm. If it weren't for the wrong occasion, Su Rui really wanted to hug Su Chennan and kiss her.

Clan Lao Jia looked at the sad looks of Su Rui's sisters and brothers, and couldn't bear to persuade: "Brother Su Fu, you guys are too dark, this is still your own granddaughter." And your second child is gone, is it really good that you are persecuting a few children like this? ”

Su Fu smoked a dry cigarette, and didn't speak, just looked at the ground and pondered.

Su Lu angrily scolded his eldest brother and said, "Big brother! Chang Ming is your own son, are you not afraid that he will come to you in the middle of the night for his own children like this? ”

Su Fu's hands trembled, and he raised his head to look at Su Lu, a trace of panic flashed in his eyes.

"Then, then five hundred wen."

When Su Rui lowered her head and pretended to wipe her eyes, she glanced at Su Fu mockingly, and said, "I'm young, and I don't know a lot of things, so I want to ask a few clan elders a question here." ”

Su Zheng nodded, "Rui girl, if you have any questions, just ask." ”

"Okay, then I'll ask. Excuse me, how many people in our village can earn 500 wen a month in addition to eating and drinking? ”

When the clan elders heard this, they got together, "How can there be, the son of the Sunan family is in the dart line, and his head is tied to the belt of his trousers for a month, and it is only 600 wen a month." ”

The clan elder Yi sighed: "His six hundred wen, maybe one day he will die to spend it, the son of the Su Mu family, working in the back kitchen of the county tavern, is only 500 wen a month, and he can't go home in a month." ”

"Yes, yes." Brother Su Fu, you want 500 wen is too much. ”

Su Lu looked at his eldest brother hatefully on the side, "Big brother, think about how Chang Ming and his family are filial to you, you are like this, are you really not afraid that you will not be criticized by the king of Hades in the future?" ”

Su Fu is a pure ancient person, of course, he also believes in ghosts and gods, he is a little flustered, now he is sixty-one and two, I am afraid that he will enter the underworld in a few years, if he is criticized, he will definitely not be reincarnated.

"So, how much do you say is appropriate?"

Su Zheng looked at Su Fu, "Are you sure we want to decide?" ”

Uncle Su hurriedly grabbed Su Fu's arm, "Dad!" ”

Su Fu pushed Uncle Su away irritably, whether his son can be reincarnated in the future is definitely incomparable.

"Brother Su Zheng, I'm sure, I believe in the decision of the clan."

Seeing this, several clan elders got together to discuss, and after a while, they sat back in their seats, and Su Zheng said, "We discussed, Brother Su Fu, you want too much, and it doesn't conform to the rules." What we discussed was that Su Rui's girl would be 100 wen a month, which could be paid once a year. Changhai and Chang'an January 150 Wen. ”

Uncle Su saw that everything had been discussed, and he knew that he couldn't continue to make trouble, so he stood aside.

Su Fu nodded, "Okay, I agreed." ”

Su Zheng saw that Su Fu also agreed, so he looked at Su Rui and said, "Rui girl, are you satisfied with this amount?" ”

Su Rui originally wanted to give two taels of silver a year, but she didn't expect her uncle and grandfather Su Lu to be so powerful, and directly pinched Su Fu's three inches, making him lose his fighting strength.

"Thank you clan elders for thinking about us, I'm very satisfied, but I have a request, I don't know if I should talk about it?"

Uncle Su was angry in his heart, he didn't ask for the amount he wanted, and said in a bad tone: "If you don't talk about it, don't talk about it." ”

Su Rui didn't pay attention, just looked at Su Zheng.

Su Zheng glanced at Su Fu, and motioned to look at the good son you taught, I don't know any etiquette, Su Fu's face was so dark that he could drip ink, and he glared at Su Changan.

Su Changan realized that the elders of the family did not speak, but he spoke first, annoyed that he had not controlled his temper.

Su Zheng nodded, "Rui girl, what do you want, say it." If we can help you, we will help. ”
