Chapter 1120: Famine, Natural Disasters 277
How to think and how to be annoyed.
She felt heavy in her heart, and sighed heavily, "Twenty taels is twenty taels, a family can save more than a dozen taels a month except for food and clothing."
After coming to the northwest, it cost silver money for food and clothing, but fortunately, there was the silver that Mingyi and Mingli earned from hunting in the mountains before; Now there is a soap business, and the degree of food and clothing has increased by more than one level.
When living conditions improve, more money is spent; In the past, I had land in my hometown, and I only needed to buy some necessities every month, which cost less than 500 yuan.
Now it costs at least five taels of silver a month.
With such a calculation, Luo Cuihua felt distressed again; When you have a large amount of money in your hand, you feel that you can spend it, and there is nothing wrong with using it on your own family. As for the calculation, it is natural to save if you can.
There is no need to buy fine grains for grain, and coarse grains are also very good; The number of times the family eats meat will be reduced, and vegetables can be grown in the yards after the beginning of spring, and the vegetable cost will gradually ease.
Luo Cuihua was careful in the room, Cheng Dazhu collected the money, took out five hundred taels alone and called the three and the other, and handed them the silver tickets, Cheng Yuanxi and Chen Daya were confused by this action.
"Dad, what are you giving me so much money for?" Cheng Yuanxi didn't dare to take it.
Most of the money in the family is in the hands of the two elders, which is considered to be in the public middle school; Suddenly giving them such a large denomination of silver tickets, how do you look wrong.
Chen Daya looked confused, "Dad, you are ......
"It's not for you, it's for Mingyi." The silver ticket was stuffed into the hands of the third son.
Cheng Yuanxi asked suspiciously, "Didn't you bring five hundred taels to Mingyi just now, and you gave me another five hundred taels .......
"Leave it in your hands, and when Mingyi needs to spend it, you can be more relaxed in your hands; She also gives Mingyi more pocket money on weekdays, and the people she has made are different, so it's okay if she doesn't have enough money." Cheng Dazhu said earnestly.
Cheng Yuanxi and Chen Daya looked at each other.
So much silver was given to them?
Cheng Dazhu saw their doubts, and only said, "You have a pair of children under your knees, and Mingli doesn't need much silver at present; You can give a little bit, the boy can't hold too much money in his hand, the man has to be poor, and he can't be too delicate. A girl must be pampered, and she must not lack money in her hands, and she must give us the best food and clothing she can give."
After speaking, Cheng Dazhu sent them away.
Cheng Yuanxi and Chen Daya, who walked out of the courtyard, were stunned and didn't come back to their senses.
"Why did my father tell us this all of a sudden?" She was puzzled and couldn't find anyone to answer.
Cheng Yuanxi is not like this, he can't find anyone to solve his doubts; I could only drag my wife to my yard, and I was silent all the way.
After entering their yard, Chen Daya still didn't understand.
Cheng Yuanxi had a little eyebrows, "If the silver is given, we will take it, anyway, it will be for our daughter."
"But, my father gave it to you, can my mother agree?" Chen Daya's eyes were solemn, "You know how much my mother values the things in her hands; When I was in my hometown, I had to put away the needles and threads, and I always couldn't put it into practice when I gave us so much silver at once."
"Hold off."
Cheng Yuanxi pulled her into the bedroom, put the silver ticket away first, and then sat down at the table with her.
Chen Daya frowned, and she didn't know what to do for a while.
It is not good to have too much silver in your hands, and the crux of the matter is that it comes too suddenly; There was no sign at all, saying that it was for the daughter, so he gave five hundred taels, and now he took out five hundred taels and put them in the hands of their husband and wife.
It's so scary to think about it.
"Don't think about it, Daddy won't hurt us after all." Cheng Yuanxi couldn't figure it out, no matter how big the cost was, it was not impossible to give it when he really wanted to use it; What the hell was Daddy thinking? Is it just to pamper the girl in the direction of everyone's beauty?
Chen Daya shook her head and frowned, "You said before that my father plans to use our family etiquette to make the family go further; However, our family etiquette is so small, and we have to bear the burden of the whole family, so how can we?"
Zhou Wangshi
Zi first revealed his intention, and Cheng Dazhu accurately grasped this intention; will raise his heart, and he wants Mingyi to catch the prince of Zhou.
"Let's take it one step at a time."
Cheng Yuanxi can't say that this can really be done.
If it doesn't work, there will be a way out for my daughter's retreat, "I will step up the study during this time."
"Okay." At present, only the family is standing up.
With this belief, Chen Daya paid special attention to her family and the old couple in the following time.
Cheng Yuanxi is busy with business matters, and spends all his time warming books; The knowledge that was almost forgotten in the past is re-remembered after one or two revisits, and the old knowledge is new.
With a different understanding, the memory is more reliable.
.......
Mama Zhao returned to the palace and went straight to Tao Yiyuan.
"Master, the slave is back."
Mingyi was having dinner with Zhou Ting, and Mama Zhao walked into the house to take a look, and was busy saluting, "The slave has seen the prince, the master."
The smile between Zhou Ting's eyebrows faded a little, "Where have you been?"
Mama Zhao looked at Mingyi first, and saw that Mingyi didn't stop her.
"Back to the world, the slave maid went back to the Cheng family on the orders of the master and brought something to the Cheng family."
"Really?"
Mama Zhao respectfully blessed her body, "Slaves and maids don't dare to deceive."
"Then get up." Zhou Ting sandwiched a piece of meat for Mingyi, and said with a smile, "Yiyi eat more, let's eat after eating."
Mingyi nodded, and only said, "I asked Mama Zhao to send some handmade skin care things to my mother, and I also left a set for the princess; You can let me send it over later, I have a little heart, if the princess believes that I can use it, I can try it."
"Okay." Zhou Ting should take a bite.
Mama Rong, who was waiting for the meal, quietly handed over the matter of the cloth vegetables to Mama Zhao, and then went to the inner room; Took out a bottle and a jar, without beautiful packaging, and without superfluous rhetoric, just handed things over.
If you don't bow down, you have to retreat.
Mingyi opened her mouth at this time, "Mama Zhao will follow her, and if the princess is willing to use it, she will teach the princess how to use it; The method of cleansing the face can also be taught, and everything depends on the wishes of the princess."
"Slave understands."
Mama Zhao followed and did not leave.
Mingyi ate and drank to his heart's content, put down his chopsticks, and looked at Zhou Ting, who was eating food slowly.
"Chaosheng, I need some flowers and plants."
"Soon after the beginning of spring, there are few places with flowers and plants in the northwest; I have ordered someone to find you, and you are using it to make rouge gouache?" He also put down his chopsticks.
Mingyi hummed softly, "Yes, to make rouge gouache, you need to use flower petals, plants, and Chinese medicinal herbs; At present, the land under my name has only begun to grow food, and the flowers and plants have not been found, so I can only find some use from the other places."
"There are a lot of flowers and plants needed to make rouge gouache, and I have a Zhuangzi under my name, which is quite large; When the transfer of ownership is in your name, you can take it and plant whatever you want, flowers, seeds, and seedlings, I have already sent a letter to the caravans in the Western Regions and the south, and I will bring back some of everything I can."
