Chapter 214: No Money to Spend

White Lotus cried about her own misfortune, Gu Yulan was a little impatient, but her face showed empathy, "Poor Lian'er, I really wish I could help you, but my family is not having a good time now......"

White Lotus felt better when she heard this, and couldn't help but sigh and said: "Yes, this year's year is not good, and many people are not having a good time, but your third sister's family is getting better and better." ”

Gu Yulan pursed her lips, "Hmph, what's good about their family, just live in those three thatched houses, and if there is a bigger typhoon, it will be gone!" ”

This time, White Lotus did not laugh at Gu Yuqiao's poor family with her as before, but asked with a straight face: "Do you know how much her family sells for a pound of oil?" ”

"I don't know, their family can make oil, and they don't say that they will take some to honor grandpa, do you want us to buy it from them?"

"Who told you this, I mean, I just saw Bai Sanlu help your third sister deliver the goods, the kind of jar that is more than 100 catties, he pulled a whole ten jars out!"

"Really?!" Gu Yulan stood up excitedly, "Then do you know how much a pound of oil costs?" ”

"You know, how can a pound of oil get fifty wen, and that thousand catties of oil have to be sold for fifty taels of silver! I think it won't be long before your uncle's family will be able to build a house! ”

The two were talking, and suddenly Xiao Huang shouted outside: "Yulan, your second uncle and they are back, go boil water and make tea!" ”

White Lotus hurriedly stood up and said: "Hey, I see that your life is not as good as mine, as soon as the whole family calls you as a slave, I will go home and come to you another day." ”

When Gu Yulan heard this, she was even more depressed than being enslaved by her own mother, she was actually not as good as a poor girl in the countryside?!

When Gu Yulan made tea and sent it to the main hall, she heard the second uncle ask her grandfather anxiously: "Dad, you said that you won't sell grain this year, why?" ”

Gu Yulan was also curious, isn't there almost no money to spend at home? The old man became popular all of a sudden, "Sell? How to sell? This year, 20 acres of land will receive three or four percent of the grain of previous years, and after paying taxes, it is difficult to say whether you can eat until the next harvest! ”

Xiao Huang immediately shouted: "Isn't it? Dad, what should I do, there is no money at home. ”

Old Man Gu blew his beard, "No silver, no silver, didn't there be a few taels before, how long has it been?" ”

"This ......" Xiao Huang hesitated for a moment, looking at the eyes of a room full of people looking at her with a look of condemnation, she sneered, and simply confided it.

"Yulan and I have to do housework every day, but the fourth uncle refuses to chop firewood, and the fourth siblings don't help with the work, so we have to buy firewood and things to feed the poultry and livestock every day. The vegetable garden magnolia can't be taken care of, it grows messy, and it's almost out of food, what can I do? ”

Gu Yulan sneered secretly, is this still her mother, obviously all the housework is done by her!

It's like a big aunt, even if she has a big belly, she always rushes to work, and she just wants the silly girl to rest for a while.

Thinking like this, she heard the fourth aunt Wang say: "Oh, third sister-in-law, Hua Xin is a scholar, and he can't do the work of chopping wood." And I'm not a child, she's clingy, and can't work? ”

"You're five years old, what's so small?"

Seeing that the two were about to quarrel, Gu Lao Er hurriedly stopped: "Okay, stop arguing." Dad, I don't have to sell food this year, so what about my family's expenses? You can't ask my husband to reach out, right? ”

"You really don't have any money? You have been a shopkeeper in your father-in-law's house for 20 years, didn't he give you a little salary? ”
