When it came time to eat in the evening. Qiu Yu had already gone home with the child, and Second Uncle Lu woke up from the wine and went back to the eldest young master's house to be a director on errands. Only the four members of the Lu family were left sitting around the main house for dinner.

Mother Lu seemed to be embarrassed about the noon incident, and took several pieces of meat to her husband and daughter, because her son was clamoring to eat it, so she hurriedly stuffed him with a chicken leg, and said to her husband with some curtleness: "Today's matter...... Don't be angry, I gave you the private money I saved on weekdays, but I don't dare to touch you. Anyway, that's my mother, I can't leave her alone......"

Lu Yougui took a sip of wine, didn't look at her, and said lightly: "Your mother is my mother-in-law, how can you not care about her life or death?" It's just that your brother, I don't think it's okay kao, I'm afraid that he will take the silver and give it away in a blink of an eye, your mother can't lose half a point, and your brother and sister will take away the coffin book, so as to buy noodles and rice. Next time, it's better to buy something directly and send it away. ”

Mother Lu was a little uncomfortable: "Why don't I worry about this? It's just that you saw the situation last time, and I'm confused. I only know that I scolded me for not giving money to my brother, saying that my arm was turned out, and as soon as I got rich, there was no one in my eyes. And that's not all. The doctor also said that she should not be made angry, because she would be prone to illness if she was angry. I wanted to go quietly and not let her know, but my brother and sister were always busy every time, and I wanted to tell all the neighbors that I was back, and I couldn't hide it! There is no way, I have to do this, I buy something and send it to him, if Quan Gui has the heart to gamble, the thing can also be exchanged for silver, if he buys something they don't like, it is useless. After a pause, she saw that her husband's face was still not very good-looking, so she smiled and said: "Don't worry, that kid Quangui used to be unacceptable, but since he became sick with his mother, he also knows the seriousness of the matter, I have asked his daughter-in-law, every time he gets silver, he will buy medicine and delicious food for his mother, coax her old man to be happy, and his daughter-in-law's monthly money, he will not move." Keep to support the family, and usually go out to help people run errands, and ask for a reward to supplement the family's income. Gambling...... It's just a pastime, and it's not as foolish as it used to be. ”

Chunying had been listening silently beside her, and when she heard this, she couldn't help but pout: "Mother, I see how my uncle stares at the silver today, I'm afraid he still loves to gamble." Let's make up for my grandmother, so it's better to buy something and send it over. Even if the uncle wants to sell his things for money to gamble, at least he can't take them all to the gambling house. If my aunt has a plan, she will keep her share of food. I'm not saying that my mother can't make up for my mother's family, but I'm really unwilling to let the people in the gambling house get the money in the house, but my grandmother can't even make up the money for medicine. ”

Mother Lu also knew her brother's character in her heart, but when her daughter said this, she felt embarrassed: "I just said it, your uncle has left the medicine money!" He has a lot of food at home now, what are you talking about?! All I give is private money, which I save little by little on weekdays, and I have never touched the money at home! ”

Lu Yougui was unhappy when he heard this: "Your usual household silver is not earned by me and my daughter?!" What are you yelling at Chun'er?! Today, Sister Qiu's face fell! Don't you know that her maids and cooks are here?! In the past few years, our family has not been without the help of her two people, if it weren't for the son-in-law's sincerity, our family would be able to save this family business today? ! I know you're loose on your money now. Seeing that my mother's family is not doing well, I help with a few taels of silver from time to time, one is filial piety, and the other is also showing off, so that your mother and your brother regret treating you poorly in the past! But don't you want to think about it, are we a rich and noble family? Chunying gave Brother Hu the one hundred taels, the one thousand taels of silver earned back, plus our own savings, after buying a few properties, it has been used up by hundreds, you have to live in a big mansion again, and spend money on painting, new furniture, and money to make clothes, filial piety to his mother's family, Shu Xiu for Mr. Xiaohu, and when he lived in his son-in-law's house before, he gave his maid's mother-in-law and his classmates a reward, and the miscellaneous things added up, a total of less than five hundred taels of silver! If you continue to use it like this, sooner or later you will have to sit and eat empty, I am thinking about finding one or two inputs, and it will definitely cost money, and you will send money here like flowing water, I don't know how to think about home?! Chun'er's dowry has not yet been paid, let alone the money for Xiaohu to marry his daughter-in-law in the future! You think they're young?! Chun'er is a matter of one or two years, Xiaohu is about to be nine years old, and it is only six or seven years away from marrying, how much did our family earn in the previous six or seven years? ! ”

Mother Lu lowered her head when she heard this, why didn't she know this truth? But it was her real mother. biological brothers, you can't ignore it. In the past, she didn't have the ability to help, but now that she has the money in hand, how can she enjoy her own happiness with peace of mind, but watch her mother's family hungry? !

However, Qiu Yu's matter, she also regretted it a little, she was upset by her brother's affairs at the time, and when she was angry, she dragged out her mouth and said something like that, which hurt her daughter's heart. It's just that she can't compensate her daughter when she is a mother, right? At that time, the daughter's girl and the cook were also far away, so she shouldn't have heard it, and when she made some new hats and shoes for her little grandson, she would make amends. Qiu Yu is not a person with a chicken belly, so she won't be angry.

Lu Yougui watched the expression on his wife's face change, and probably guessed what she was thinking, so he was even more angry, and drank two glasses of wine in a row. Chunying watched, hurriedly took care of Xiaohu after eating, sent him out, and persuaded with a smile: "I also brought some things when I came back today, including jewelry and property from the top prize, and the dowry given to me by the second old lady and the second wife, which is worth a lot of silver, if the family needs money." (Marshmallows) can be sold first......"

"You keep those as dowries!" Lu Yougui interrupted his daughter's words, "Since it is rewarded by the second old lady and the second wife, it must be a good thing, Brother Hu is such a family, and you will be decent to wear it after you get married in the future." If you sell it, when you get married in the future, you won't have the money to dispose of such a thing! Our family hasn't reached this point yet, you just have to take it. Don't spend the money you save on weekdays, although Brother Hu treats you well, you should also keep some money in your hand. is the truth of life. Otherwise, you will have to ask him for money in everything, and you will be a little shorter. ”

Chunying blushed, whispered "yes", quietly glanced at her mother, and said, "Or...... Anyway, I don't have anything to do at home, and I can still make some money doing needlework in my spare time. It's a little less, but it's enough to provide for the daily needs of the family......"

Lu Yougui still shook his head: "You have time, embroider the dowry!" Embroider slowly, embroider a little more, and the time is looser. No matter how poor our family is, there are still hundreds of taels of silver in the family property, there is no reason for you to be a female celebrity every day, and one or two dollars are put together to supplement the family! Your mother doesn't go out to make clothes and skirts for others, just clean up the house. Sister Qiu also mentioned that she wanted to buy one or two people to come back to help, I don't think I need it, now the girl boy who is innocent and has the strength to do the work is worth at least five or six taels of silver, why spend that money? ! ”

A flash of disappointment flashed in Mother Lu's eyes, but she knew that she was at a loss, so she had to say sullenly: "Then according to your wishes, it's just that the way to make money, according to me, it's better to buy some houses for rent, or buy some fields to collect rent, and occasionally find some intermediary work on weekdays, just like Brother Hu used to, the silver earned in a year is enough for us to live easily, and you don't have to be so tired." In the final analysis, if the people in the capital don't have a little land, they are not decent enough to say it! ”

"Are you cheap to be a field?" Lu Yougui is married to his wife today, "Today's field prices are rising year by year, and this spring, the medium-sized fields outside the city have been sold to ten taels and one acres, and our family's silver." I can't buy half an acre of good land, if the year is bad, I can't get a grain of rice back, let's eat the northwest wind?! What's more, Chun'er is about to get married, and the family should leave some cash for the dowry no matter what, and can't all use it to buy land. If there are only twenty or thirty acres, it is better to leave the money to do some small business! ”

"This doesn't work, that doesn't work, you can go by yourself!" Lu's mother was annoyed, so she dropped her chopsticks and got up to see her son.

Chunying swallowed the last grain of rice and whispered: "Dad, my mother is unhappy, why are you angry with her?" She's just talking, and in the end, it's up to you to decide. ”

Lu Yougui shook his head slightly: "It's only been a few days of comfortable life, she has a big heart, and she always feels that she can live like a rich family. Isn't it because you feel that your family has money and is confident? If I don't say something serious to wake her up, she will suffer sooner or later. Ignore her, Ming'er will be fine. ”

Chunying and her parents have been together for less than a month all year round, although they care about them, after all, they don't know much about how they get along, and I feel that although my mother occasionally pushes up with my father, she will obey him in the end, and tonight's quarrel is not too serious, so she no longer persuaded him, but said: "It's finally a family reunion, it's time to live a good life, my mother sometimes can't figure it out, and my father just patiently told her." Home and everything is prosperous. ”

Lu Yougui nodded indiscriminately, and the bento was answered, and after drinking the remaining half of the pot of wine, he burped, and said: "Although it is said that you are angry with your mother, your father and I are not talking nonsense." At first, I thought about buying land, but now the price of land is really high, and it is not convenient to see the land farther away. I thought about it, since I have some money in hand, I might as well start a small business. Your second uncle promised to introduce me to people from the Yamen, and I will be like Brother Hu and you back then, acting as an intermediary for people and earning some errand money. Our new house is big, and it is not a problem to save a few hundred pieces of cloth. I'm familiar with the way again, and I can get a lot of business just by doing business with acquaintances. Make a few years of money first, and when you have enough money, you can open your own store! ”

Chunying listened to the KAO score and nodded again and again: "Dad, this is a good idea!" You bring Bra home, and I can help you. I also know several guests from other places in the past, and if they are still doing it now, I can also help say a few words! ”

Lu Yougui smiled: "Good girl, I know you are filial, but my father is familiar with this kind of thing, and I don't need you." Just embroider the dowry! When your father earns a family business, when you marry into the Hu family, you will be able to enjoy the scenery. ”

Chunying was embarrassed: "We're discussing the family's livelihood!" What do you do about this? ”

Lu Yougui smiled even more happily, Chunying was embarrassed for a while, and wanted to snatch the wine jug in his hand, so he let his daughter go: "Okay, okay, I don't say it, I don't say it." The girl's family is tender! After a pause, "In two days, you can go back to Dongfu to say goodbye, and you will often go back for a walk in the future." Although we have released it, in the end, we are born in the family, and if we can't go back often to say goodbye, we will be poked in the back. If the masters of Dongfu are happy, your father and I are doing business outside, and we are being bullied, and we also have a kao mountain, so we will have the confidence to speak. Now that the master of Dongfu has become a scholar, he is more decent than the Hou Ye! ”

Chunying was a little reluctant in her heart, she finally put on that kind of day, do you want to go back to make amends and please? But what my father said also has some truth, now living the life of a small person in Shengdou, without Kao Mountain, it is indeed easy to be bullied, especially when you have some money. After thinking about it, he said: "I will go back, I don't intend to please the second old lady and the second lady for rewards, just because of their benefits to me in the past, I occasionally accompany me to talk and relieve my boredom, just do my best." ”

Lu Yougui smiled: "That's it." Let's not be like other people, we still want Kao's reward money to eat, you just accompany you to talk, do some needlework and filial piety during the New Year's holidays, and make the second old lady, the second wife and the young master and young lady happy. If you hear that the house is going to buy clothes or something, come back and tell me that I sent the materials over to earn some money and save the house a loss. Nowadays, the people who buy are not very honest, and they dare to report five taels of one tael of material! The second old lady and the second old lady and the second wife are both good masters, why bother asking them to let people take advantage of them?! ”

Chunying answered, and saw that the meal was almost finished, and there were still a few mouthfuls in her mother's bowl, so she got up and called her mother, but she heard a few hurried knocks outside the door, and wondered: "Who?" ”

Outside the door, he replied: "Is it Sister Chun?" I'm your aunt! Open the door! ”

Chunying frowned, what did she do at night? Could it be that the five taels of silver were also lost? Before she could move, Mother Lu ran out of the east wing and went over to open the door, and Chunying had to follow.

As soon as the door opened, my aunt Jin's family rushed in, panting, one hand still twisting her husband's ear, and shouted: "Auntie, your brother is confused today, and he came to ask you for money, he is lying, and my mother is fine!" I was already awake and ate half a bowl of porridge in the morning. It's all because of his hand addiction that he will come and talk nonsense! He stretched out his other hand, and there was an old money bag in the palm of his hand: "Look, the five taels of silver that my aunt gave him made him lose more than three taels, and the rest of the one or two or eight cents are here." My aunt took it back, and I paid the rest of the monthly money another day, so I will definitely pay you back! ”

Mother Lu was confused when she heard this, and when she saw her brother yelling in pain, she hurriedly said, "What are you doing?!" Brother and sister, let go of Quangui's ears! ”

"It's time for him to suffer! What's the use of long ears?! and refuses to listen to anyone's persuasion! As soon as the Jin family's hand was loosened, he simply sat on the ground and cried loudly, attracting the surrounding residents to probe their heads to see what was going on.

Chunying's eyes widened, and her mind couldn't turn for a while, thinking what the hell was going on? Could it be that my aunt has changed sex?

(Exhausted...... I'm in a hurry to go out and post back at night)! ~！
