Banniang doesn't know how much is left, but in addition to the improvement of the food at home, the family made a few new summer shirts, autumn shirts and winter clothes, and then those few big expenses, and it didn't cost any money, all of which were calculable. After a rough estimate, after deducting the 300 guan taken away by the two elder brothers, and taking more than 200 guan for Lu 17 to open a restaurant, plus the timber money for the dowry of the sixth sister, there should be more than 100 guan to spare, but there are also 80 fixed entries on Tai Ruixiang's side every month, and a new shop opened last month also counted her 30% of the shares, and she should be able to give her some dividend money around the end of the year.

Then he said: "Sister-in-law has about more than 100 yuan, but Tai Ruixiang still has 80 yuan every month." ”

Mingchun Liuniang will spend money to get married, and the old lady's ninetieth birthday is a big expense, I originally thought that the old lady's ninetieth birthday would repair the Yunzhuang villa, this money seems to be unsuccessful, and the eighth mother has opened a new restaurant, it is the time to use the money, Zhu shook his head secretly, and said with a smile: "Yunzhuang will wait a few days to repair it, the end of the year is almost over, and if you want to repair it, you have to wait for next year." ”

talked about the dowry of the sixth sister again.

Banniang has always been busy, and she didn't ask Liu Erlang, but Liu Erlang occasionally sent some fresh fields from the countryside over, saying that the family was being made, and it should be ready for the New Year.

Zhu was relieved when he heard this.

A few days later, Zeng Budo came back, and when the family had dinner in the evening, he talked about Mr. Xujiang's desire to invite him to give a lecture in the academy.

"Dad, are you really going?" Kuro asked.

Zeng Budo shook his head: "Although Dad wants to go, but our family can't leave now, not to mention the matter of improving the cultivation method of your Lu family's seventeenth brother, Dad is more concerned, and our family just has a grange now, and after the New Year, I will invite Seventeen Lang to go around our grange to see our grange, where can we also open up a few pieces, try to plant." ”

The family was very surprised, my father was a good scholar, and went straight to the old farmer.

However, Chinese literati have always had an idyllic dream, no matter whether it is really their true pursuit in their hearts to talk about wine, mulberry and chrysanthemum, but the hermit style is not loved by literati.

When you think about it, it's understandable.

Banniang felt a little funny, when did the always infamous Nanfeng City tyrant Lu Seventeen classmates also become the affectionate "Seventeenth Brother of your Lu Family" in Daddy's mouth.

But Jiulang was a little depressed when he heard his father say this.

Obviously, he privately thought that being a scholar was a much more promising profession than an old peasant. It's a pity that he is only seven or eight years old, and in the big family of the Zeng family, he can basically belong to the category that has no right to speak.

Because my father decided to stay at home, everyone was relieved, and life returned to peace.

Listen to the sound of Toutuo's dawn every morning, the sound of selling in the morning and night, the sound of reading in the schoolhouse, busy with housework during the day, or go around the restaurant that is about to open with Lu Qiqi, or read books, practice calligraphy, practice boxing and feet with Cang'er, or talk with Lu Siniang, go shopping, Banniang said that the days are full of bright hope.

That day, Banniang suddenly remembered that there had been no news of Wu Sanniang for a long time, but in the past, she either came to visit her at Zeng's house every once in a while, or sent someone to send a post to invite her out to play, and when she chatted with Lu Siniang, she brought it up.

Lu Siniang wanted to speak and stopped.

Banniang Qi said: "What does the fourth sister know? ”

Lu Siniang sighed and said, "You really haven't heard of it?" It seems that Sanniang and the original engaged Li Zhuo have withdrawn from the family, because the martial arts family is also a well-known family in Nanfeng City, and the only daughter has withdrawn, and Sanniang is a capable person who everyone knows, so there are more people to talk about. Where did she run out as usual? ”

As he spoke, he was a little puzzled: "You haven't heard any wind at all?" ”

Banniang said in her heart that my family is just a few simple people, and I usually just interact with a few of you, where do I hear it?

Lu Siniang saw that she really didn't know, and when she thought about it, the Zeng family was different from her own family, and the people in her own family who had so many rooms were already miscellaneous, but whenever there was something new, it wouldn't take two days, and everyone in the house would know about it. is also because she and Wu Sanniang have been in close contact recently, and the family knows about it, and after hearing the news, it came to her.

After she heard this, she also sent a letter to Wu Sanniang to comfort her, but Sanniang did not reply. Although they are friends, but other people's private affairs, and it is not a good thing, where is the best way to get to the bottom of it? Sanniang's character she also knows that she will not overwhelm such a trivial matter, one day she will figure it out, and she will come out to find a place to play.

This kind of thing, outsiders are not easy to say anything, not to mention that Banniang is still a little girl in the eyes of others, so although she feels sorry for Wu Sanniang in her heart, she just sighs, so she asked Lu Siniang: "Fourth sister, have you heard of the reason?" ”

Asked about this, Lu Siniang frowned, and said "phew" hatefully.

She was a dignified but calm person, and she grew up in a big family, and she was the best at being a person, not to mention that she couldn't help but show such a disgusted look all of a sudden, and she wouldn't even say a word to someone on weekdays.

"But what's wrong with Li Zhuo?" Banniang hurriedly asked.

The fourth lady snorted coldly, and said after a sigh: "Speaking of this, it really makes people angry, Sanniang is such a gorgeous character, looking for it in Nanfeng City, can be worthy of her, I am afraid that I can't pick out a few, that Li Zhuo burned high incense in his previous life, and there was green smoke on the ancestral grave, so he was fortunate to be able to marry her, which is good, before marrying into the family, there was a rumor that the concubine entered the door." Our Great Song Dynasty men have always been romantic, but it is not a big deal for a rich and noble family with some money and power to raise a few concubines, but what is he Li Zhuo? The family has no permanent property, coarse food to live, relying on being the shopkeeper of the martial family, the family can avoid a few mouths, but they also learn what concubines others marry, and this is not yet married, so the concubine is pregnant, and I find the martial family to ask for an explanation? Could it be that the martial arts family recruited him as a son-in-law, and also recruited a pair of both to come to the door? I heard that Li Zhuo is also a reader, could it be that the book has been read in the dog's stomach? ”

"The concubine came to the door and was pregnant with a child? Then, Li Zhuo didn't come forward to solve it? "That's outrageous, isn't it? What kind of strongman does this concubine have to be to follow someone's door-to-door son-in-law, and come to the door with a big belly to ask for an explanation before they get married? Do people know who you are?

"What else do you want him to do when he goes out? Sanniang is not a loser Sanniang, at that time, she asked someone to put the little concubine in the car and sent it directly to Li Zhuoli in Linchuan, and called an experienced mother-in-law, who did not give the concubine a chance to find trouble, and sent it safely, and at that time, the same car followed the official media invited when the engagement was made, and the family affairs were withdrawn on the spot. ”

"The Li family even agreed?"

"Finally, the Li family naturally did not agree to withdraw from the marriage, but Li Zhuo didn't get involved in the end, but gritted his teeth and responded." Speaking of this, Lu Siniang laughed, "Speaking of the last time, my brother just came in and heard it, and said that if such a man meets his own girl, the first thing he should do is to find the door first, beat him hard, beat him all over the ground to find his teeth, and then withdraw from the marriage." ”

This is like what Lu Seventeen said.

Banniang also laughed, and then remembered that Wu Sanniang was such an outstanding girl, if she lived in the era of her previous life, she wanted her family background, she wanted money and wealth, she wanted to have character, she wanted to have good looks, she had the ability and ability, and she had to live a white and rich beauty. Can you still worry about not getting married? I'm afraid that the young man who pursues her will rush up and block the urban traffic in Shanghai.

But such a character, born in such an era, is a little uncomfortable for a while.

Thinking of herself, what if she meets a man looking for a concubine in the future?

is also a woman, and she can't help but give birth to the sadness of a rabbit and a fox.

Even Lu Siniang was stunned when she saw Banniang's face.

She herself has reached the age of getting married, because of the special situation at home, she has been dragging on, but the eldest aunt has shown her a lot of people, and the eldest uncle and aunt pity her brother and sister for the early death of their parents, and also love her and her brother as their own children, so the people they find are excellent.

Only her brother's family affairs have not yet been decided, and he is such a restless character, how can she rest assured that she will marry early? said that her brother was not married, and she would not go out, so she was delayed.

Parents were very affectionate when they were alive, at that time his father was also a six-grade official, not that no one sent a beautiful concubine into her house, but they all took the initiative to send their father out, although both parents died early, but her mother's short life was really happy in the end.

But what about her? Can I be as happy as my mother was when she was alive? Meet a man who is wholeheartedly good to himself?
