Chapter 10: Disgusted
Seeing that the patriarch had been silent, Aunt Jin thought about it and figured it out.
She simply opened the skylight and said brightly: "Patriarch, you are worried about our wealth and death, right?"
"You can rest assured, we don't want the property of the little ingot!
"I consulted with my old man last night! We won't touch any of her things, we will keep them for her as a dowry, so that she can take them out later!
"The patriarch can call all the clansmen to make a notarization, first leave all her things in the clan temporarily, and wait for her to return them on the day of her marriage! It's best to let the whole clan put a fingerprint on the notarial deed!
"In the future, if Little Ingot Danfan suffers a little grievance from me, you just have to take her away! If there is an accident with me, you just treat me as a murderer, send me to the yamen, and let the yamen fall! ”
Her sonorous words dispelled the patriarch's suspicions.
Yes, judging from the request made by Mrs. Jin, there is no benefit for the Jin family to raise a small ingot.
Before Xiao Yuanbao got married, the property was under the control of the clan.
After Xiao Yuanbao got married, the property would be taken away directly by her.
If something happens to the little ingots, the property will not fall on their heads, and it will only be used as family property to subsidize the old, weak, sick, disabled, and poor people.
"All of them remain in the clan, but we take advantage of her," said the patriarch very justly, and said with consideration, "so let's take out a penny of silver every month from the property left by her father and mother, and give it to you as the maintenance money for the little ingots; Her house and land are rented by the clan, and one percent of the annual rent is taken by the clan as the hard work of the clan to take care of the house and land, and the other ninety percent is stored in her account, so that she can take it away as a dowry when she gets married. ”
"It's okay, it's still the patriarch who thinks about it." Aunt Jin said happily.
"Then I'll go back and discuss it with the people of the clan, and if everyone has no other opinions, then it's decided. When the time comes, I will send you a notarial certificate of support, in duplicate, all the clansmen must press their fingerprints, you must press their fingerprints, and the small ingots will also press their fingerprints. The patriarch got up and left.
An hour later.
Guanyin Town, tile city.
Aunt Jin took a small ingots to occupy a vacant stall, and there were 200 wild duck eggs in the back basket.
She originally planned to keep all these wild duck eggs for the little ingots to eat.
But Xiao Yuanbao refused, saying that the family was poor, and Uncle Jin still had to take medicine, so he should sell these wild duck eggs for money.
Aunt Jin insisted on leaving a hundred wild duck eggs.
She beat two wild duck eggs and steamed custard.
The little ingots knocked nine more wild duck eggs into the big bowl.
She said that Uncle Jin was not in good health, and he wanted to eat the amount of two wild duck eggs, and the others would eat the amount of one wild duck egg.
As a result, she only ate a small spoonful in the end, and the other custards in the bowl were distributed to the Jin family.
She said that she was so small that she couldn't eat just one spoonful.
Aunt Jin thought to herself, it is said that the children of the poor are in charge of the family early, why are the seven children of her own family not as sensible as she is when they are as old as her?
The girl is really caring!
At the stall next to it, there was an old woman selling vegetables.
The old woman turned her head and glanced at the wild duck eggs in their baskets: "Wild duck eggs, wild ducks are difficult to find food outside, and this egg is too small, only half the size of a domestic duck egg." Duck eggs cost a penny, you have to pay two pennies, right? ”
"Can't we also sell it for a penny?" The little ingots asked puzzled with their big beautiful eyes.
"My old woman has lived for more than 70 years, and I have never seen anyone who dares to sell a wild duck egg for a penny," the old woman stretched out her dry hand, picked up a wild duck egg, looked at it, and put it back in disgust, "It's too small." ”
