But Shen Qingqian winked at her helplessly, although she also felt that the Wu family was too trivial, but the Shen family was like this, they valued girls very much, as long as the conditions permitted, they didn't want girls to suffer at all.

"Mother is right, although my sisters have to learn to do housework, they still need to have an adult watching." Shen Xiao also agreed.

Shen Shan and Shen Yong also echoed each other, expressing concern for Shen Qingyu and telling a lot of words.

They don't just care about the sixth sister, the sisters in the family are their responsibility, but because the sixth sister is the youngest, they will inevitably be a little biased.

Seeing that the matter was almost the same, Shen Qingqian opened his mouth and said: "Auntie, although we have two tools now, there are still a lot of things missing, such as hoes, shovels, shovels, etc. The people in the courtyard opposite said that the imperial court would not care about these, so we have to buy it ourselves, can the family come up with the money now? ”

The punishment of exiles in the Great Jin Dynasty is simply ubiquitous, people are not given tools to open up the wasteland, and people are not given even a basket to work in the mines, and if they want to complete the task, they have to bring their own things.

But most of the exiles did not have anything on them, so the officer in charge would "kindly" remind them that they could help get the things, but they had to withhold the prisoner's rations.

In other words, in such a situation, there are still people who want to make money from the exiles.

But there are such people in any era, and for these people, exiles are people who have been abandoned by the imperial court, and even if they are known, they have nothing to fear as long as there is a valid reason.

The Wu family borrowed from the opposite courtyard in the past few days and bought it by themselves, but it was all the silver they earned in other ways, and only a few people really had no choice but to let the servants deduct their rations.

After all, the rations issued by the imperial court to exiles were extremely limited.

Just like the situation of the Shen family, each person over the age of fifteen has one coarse grain cake and a handful of miscellaneous grains per day, and those between the ages of ten and fifteen have only one coarse grain cake and only a handful of miscellaneous grains under the age of ten.

Multigrains are all kinds of rice, millet, sorghum, and so on, but the amount of rice and millet is negligible.

These are distributed on a per capita basis every month, and if you don't have enough to eat, you have to figure out how to do it yourself.

The Shen family still has things that can last until the beginning of spring, plus it is about to enter winter, and the opening up of the wasteland is the punishment of the imperial court for them, so they must be put at the forefront, even if they can't achieve anything, they have to have a correct attitude, so they don't think about their livelihood for the time being.

"Shall we buy it ourselves?" Wu Shi wrinkled his eyebrows, "The silver can be scraped together, but ...... If we spend on this, it will be difficult for us to do something after the beginning of spring. ”

No matter when, silver is the confidence of the family. Wu now has more than 20 taels of silver left over from the last exchange of gold, plus she also brought a little valuable jewelry when she came out.

But as a last resort, she didn't want to touch those things, after all, it was her most important dowry.

Shen Qingqian just wanted to say that she still had some golden melon seeds and silver peanuts, and Sheng Ze's voice came from the door, "If my aunt doesn't dislike it, I still have some silver here." ”

Everyone looked towards the door, and saw the Cheng brothers standing at the door, Cheng Yun was still smiling, and Cheng San was full of light and breezy feelings.

"Cheng third brother? Please come in," Shen Xiao hurriedly greeted him, and said casually, "Where can I use your money?" Besides, you'll have to leave yourself a way out here, and we'll think again. ”
