Chapter 17: Alarmist

If you endure it any longer, you will not be able to live the days of the second room.

Thinking of his three children, Nguyen cried in distress.

Ah Feng said, "Daddy, our second room is separated from the big house, and the people in the big house have to give silver when they go to the shop to buy things, and if they don't give silver, they will rob, what is the difference between robbing and robbers?" This matter is to make trouble, and we will also take advantage of it, even if grandma comes forward, the big house will not take advantage of it, Daddy, what are you hesitating about? ”

Xi Yun looked at Daddy, then at Auntie who was crying silently, and then at Sister Ah with a cold face, he jumped off the chair, ran to Xi Tongfang's side, hugged his legs, and said, "Daddy, Ah Yun reads, it costs a lot of silver, Daddy, do you want Ah Yun to study without silver, or Brother is sick and has no silver, watching our family down?" Let me and my brother be little beggars on the street? ”

Xi Ming, the eldest brother of the Xi family, is a premature baby, since birth, his health has not been good, and when he gets hot and cold, he will get sick, so Xi Ming has been cultivating in the house and rarely goes out.

A small part of the reason why the days of the second room are so difficult is because Xi Ming's medical expenses for a year cost a lot of silver.

Hangzhou City is the land of fish and rice, the 100 acres of paddy fields of the Xi family are all high-grade paddy fields, the land of ointment, the soil and water are fertile, there are a lot of rice harvested in a year, the income is nearly 300 taels of silver, the small door is a small family, the income is 300 taels of silver, it is really a lot, not only can live a well-off life, but also save some and keep it for backup.

But this amount of silver is very small for the second room.

Three hundred taels of silver, one hundred taels a year for two shops, Xi Ming also got one hundred taels for medical treatment, and only one hundred taels of silver remained, which will be enough for the family to chew and interact with people.

The reason why Xi Feng proposed to close the two shops was also to save the one hundred taels of silver, and to collect dozens of taels of extra rent, and with this amount of silver in the second room, life would not be so difficult.

But the coffin shop and the incense candle shop were assigned to the second room by the Xi family's father-in-law, and Xi Tongfang was reluctant to close it, but it was not closed, and more than 100 taels of silver had to be pasted into it every year......

"Daddy, my daughter knows, those two shops are in your hands, you are reluctant to close, since you are reluctant, then Daddy should not let the shop make ends meet, my daughter heard that before last year, just the incense and candles taken away from the shop by the big house had more than 100 taels of silver, more than half of which were taken away as favors, and two aunts took them...... Daddy, if we continue like this, our whole family will have to be buried for those two shops. ”

It's not that Xi Feng is alarmist, but it's true.

In his previous life, didn't the people in the second room lose more than a dozen lives for the sake of these properties in the family.

In her previous life, Xi Feng had a grudge against the big house and was not convinced, but she didn't dare to disobey Xi Tongfang, but in this life, she would rather be a disobedient daughter and an unfilial granddaughter, and she would never let the big house take advantage of the second room a little bit.

She would rather close those two shops than take advantage of the big house.

Xi Tongfang hesitated for a long time and said, "The shop can't be closed, but in the future, I will tell the shopkeeper Sun to stop letting the big house take things and not give money." ”

Is it possible?

Xi Feng was very skeptical.

The people in the big house have always been domineering, they go to the shop to get things, where can the shopkeeper Sun stop them?
