Chapter 650: Scraping together money to build a new house

Last time, Gan Lin mentioned to them that after the straw hat business stopped, he asked them to come over and help pack the soap corners.

  The two sisters-in-law were stunned for a moment, and after understanding what Gan Lin meant, the two nodded busily and said, "Yes, I agreed that day." How can there be no reason not to agree? When will it start? Today? ”

  So saying, the two of them took the silver into their bosoms and asked, "Where is the soaphorn?" How is it packed? Let's both get to work now! ”

  Yesterday evening, the shopkeeper Zhang came to pull a thousand soap corners, and there is no need to be so anxious today.

  Gan Lin said to the two of them, "Come back tomorrow!" You only stopped working in straw hats yesterday, and you rarely have a day to spare, so you can rest and recuperate your spirits before you do it. ”

  The two sisters-in-law went home as they were told.

  The two of them carried a heavy bag of silver, and the smile on their faces never stopped.

  After returning home, the two sisters-in-law discussed in a whisper in the house.

  "Sister-in-law, my father and brother are planning to start building a new house in a few days, and now I am back to my parents' house, and I have to contribute to my mother's family." Gan Jinxiu came out with fifty taels of silver and said, "I will use these fifty taels of silver to build a house for my family." ”

  Qiu glanced at Gan Jinxiu, hesitated for a moment, then counted fifty taels and said, "Building a house is the top priority, and now that I have money, I will also pay fifty taels of silver!" ”

  In fact, Qian Gan Dashun, who built a house, is ready, and the savings of these years plus the sale of grain, there are also one hundred taels together, and it is enough to build a second courtyard.

  But now that Gan Jinxiu and Qiu's business has made so much money, and the two of them have the heart to contribute to the family, so Gan Dashun finally decided to take fifty taels out of each of the three parties and build a three-entry courtyard, so that everyone can get a courtyard and live in a spacious and comfortable place.

  Neither Gan Jinxiu nor Qiu had a problem with such a decision.

  After lunch, Qiu also discussed with Gan Jinrong and said, "If you have nothing to do in the afternoon, accompany me back to my mother's house!" I haven't been back for half a year, and I don't know if my father and mother are in good health. Seeing that the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon, buy some gifts by the way. ”

  Gan Jinrong took out two taels of silver from the mezzanine of the cabinet and handed it to Qiu: "This silver was given to me by my father when he sold grain before, you can take it to buy two pastries and cut two catties of meat!" ”

  Qiu Shi glanced at him with disgust and said, "You can put away these two taels of silver and use them as pocket money!" I have money on hand. In the future, I will help Lin Mei, and some of them will make money. ”

  Gan Jinrong scratched his head and said, "Juan'er, you've worked hard these days. ”

  "I work hard to make money, and it's not easy for you to be busy with the work in the fields, and it's not easy for our whole family." Qiu Shi took Gan Jinrong's hand and whispered, "Fortunately, Sister Lin is willing to help us, all the hard work is worth it." When I go back to my parents' house, I want to give my father and mother some filial piety, okay? ”

  "Of course you can, do you have to ask me?" Gan Jinrong took Qiu into his arms and said with a smile: "My daughter-in-law can make a lot of money now, and she can spend this money as much as she wants." Honoring one's parents is even more justified. By the way, Sister Lin sent some cakes over yesterday, they are very delicious, let's bring some back to the second elder to taste! ”

  Qiu Shi lightly slapped Gan Jinrong's chest, and then nodded with a smile, "Okay!" ”

  At this time, Gan Lin and Zhou Tian were shopping in Chenqiao Town.

  When I walked to the market, I saw an old man squatting there with a small milk dog in his arms, and he looked a little pitiful.
