Chapter 101: The Child's Complaint and the Old Stubborn Father (Recommended Addition)
Giving away three chickens that lay golden eggs is not the same thing as sending out one or two Zhuangzi.
"Forget the workshop, Mingyue has a good brain, and she can come up with other ideas to make money without the workshop, I think we should only give her a grange, I think it's good to have a Zhuangzi with 200 acres of land that you just said."
The one who can say this can undoubtedly only be Mingcheng, who is Mingyue's father, no matter what others think in their hearts, it is absolutely impossible to say this.
Old Man Ming waved his hand, "That's not possible, just a Zhuangzi, where can Jiayan continue the imperial examination?" ”
"Then what should we do? There are eight men in our family waiting to spend their money. ”
Of course, Mingcheng also wanted to give his daughter more dowry, but he couldn't care about the life or death of the rest of the family just because he felt sorry for his daughter.
How much everyone is willing to give Mingyue is everyone's heart, but Mingyue must also be worthy of everyone's heart.
His daughter, he knew, he believed that if Mingyue was present, Mingyue would never agree to pry away the three golden hens in the family in one go.
The father and son were on top like this, one said that he had to accompany him, and the other said that he could not accompany him, and he couldn't say a result for a long time, but the atmosphere in the room became more and more tense.
In the end, Gorou saw that the situation was not good, and secretly went to find Mingyue to come over.
Mingyue was still confused - saying that her dowry still found her, so is it too much or too little for her to wait a while?
As a result, as soon as she entered the house, she saw her grandfather and her father staring at each other, looking like you won't let me and I will never let you.
Mingyue was speechless for a moment, she walked over and waved her hand a few times between the two, "Dad, you are a handful of people, why are you still messing with my grandfather?" ”
When Mingcheng saw her, it was like seeing a big savior, and at this time, he couldn't care about avoiding Mingyue, the girl to be married, - how could it be important to convince his old stubborn father that just customs!
"You don't know, your lord has to accompany you with the workshop in the county, I said that our family needs the workshop business in the county, and he said that you and Jiayan also need it."
Mingyue listened to her father's tone that was the same as a child's complaint, and it took so hard to resist the urge to burst into laughter, she leaned over to Old Man Ming's side, "Master, I definitely don't want the workshop, and you don't have to worry about me and Jiayan not being able to get by." Don't forget, your granddaughter and I are the goddess of the bright moon who is known as the 'Fortune Girl', the 'Little God of Wealth', and the 'Money Tree'. ”
She even said and gestured, and the Ming family in the room was suddenly amused by her exaggerated tone, funny expression, and funny actions.
Old Man Ming's expression also softened, and he touched his granddaughter's head, "What you can earn is what you can earn, and what your mother's family gives you is what your mother's family gives you, these are two different things." ”
Mingyue shook his arm and coquettishly, "But I don't want to open a soy product workshop, the smell of raw beans turning into ripe bean juice, oops, it smells terrible." ”
As she spoke, she slapped her nose twice with a disgusted face, "Master, I still prefer to open a meat processing workshop." Imagine that when my workshop opens, my village will be full of the smell of meat, and I can eat an extra bowl of rice just by smelling it. ”
Old Man Ming was amused and helpless, "Do you think the meat must be good?" When the time comes, there will be blood everywhere, and you don't have to dislike your own Zhuangzi to bury it. ”
Mingyue continued to be coquettish, "Oh, how can Zhuangzi not be buried?" Planting crops and burying them, raising chickens, ducks and geese, and raising fish, shrimp, crabs, and lotus roots are not the same. We can't stop making money and skipping meals just because we dislike it, right? ”
Old Man Ming couldn't bear to embarrass his eldest granddaughter anymore, so he straightened up and asked Mingyue, "Are you sure that meat processing workshop of yours can make money?" ”
"Sure, don't believe you asked my milk, I made money from my own meat in the county seat earlier."
Old Man Ming looked at Mrs. Ming, and Mrs. Ming bowed slightly to him.
Old Man Ming sighed, his eldest granddaughter, what is this called? This is called the more sensible the child, the more he suffers!
Thinking that he glared at his second son, he blamed his granddaughter's stubborn father, otherwise he would have made a decision by now and asked everyone to keep it secret.
As for the workshop given to the eldest granddaughter, how will his family make more money in the future, this matter is actually thought about by the old man Ming, he has already planned to go to other towns in the county to open the same soybean products workshop, vermicelli workshop and oil extraction workshop in the autumn of next year, so that their Ming family is only missing a year's workshop business, and the loss is still within the range of bearability.
As for the difficulties faced in doing business in an unfamiliar place, these "little things" Mr. Ming believes that his children and grandchildren will be able to respond to the situation.
Mingdi and others, who were almost cheated by the irresponsible father, didn't know what their father was thinking about, and after Mingyue messed in, her dowry was quickly finalized.
In addition to the new house that the old man Ming decided to buy for her county seat, the one they bought in the north of the county has 100 acres of upper fields and 100 acres of middle fields, and also comes with a Zhuangzi with a small courtyard of two entrances, and a Zhuangzi that the old man Ming re-transferred to her in addition to ponds and mountains and forests, and a small courtyard with two enters, the Ming family also prepared a complete set of buckets and basins, a complete set of tables, chairs and cupboards, six pine cages, six dragon and phoenix happy quilts, six buckwheat skin pillows embroidered with mandarin duck water patterns, Six muslin cloths of different colors, a total of twelve sets of clothes, shoes and socks for her and Yu Jiayan together, these things are either painted with red paint or red cloth, in short, to highlight a joy.
Then there is the 1,000 taels of silver that the old man Ming said before, and Mingyue's own private silver, in line with the prudent principle of "wealth is not exposed", the old man Ming directly replaced the silver ingot with a silver ticket.
A few thin silver tickets of different denominations were placed in the dark compartment at the bottom of the Mingyue dresser together with the title deeds of the house and Zhuangzi, and ordinary people could not see them at all.
As for the one hundred taels of dowry money and some silver jewelry given by Yu Jiayan, some silver jewelry purchased for Mingyue by the members of the Ming family with their own private money, some silver jewelry given to Mingyue by relatives who came to add makeup, and some silver jewelry that Mingyue herself has added one after another in recent years, all of the Ming family are put on the surface with a box.
Then there are the delicate embroidered pillowcases, quilts, handkerchiefs, purses and other small pieces purchased by the ladies of the Ming family for Mingyue, as well as some clothes used by Mingyue for daily wear, and a few miscellaneous books that Mingyue prefers, and the Ming family also stuffed Mingyue into a cage and took them to the new house of their young couple next door.
Unlike Erlang's wedding before, Yu Jiayan and Mingyue's wedding did not have many guests.
In addition to Li Zheng, the village elder, and Dr. Li, who will inevitably be invited to sit by the host family if there is a happy event in the village, Yu Shouyi, who attended the wedding as his relatives, the two talented sons of the big landlord Master Wu, the young master of the Jiang family who has some friendship with him, and the old shopkeeper of the Jufu Restaurant who accompanied the young master Jiang, He Yaren in the town, and the other guests of Yu Jiayan's wedding banquet are basically his classmates in the town school and the county academy, otherwise there are some friends in Wulitun who used to have a good relationship with him.
He was helped by Huang Dashan's two sons and two of his classmates who had a good personal relationship.
