Chapter 42 Establishment of a Female Household
Ye Chuanfu felt that it was better to buy a larger fishing boat at this price, and it would be okay to build a shed by himself to protect from the wind and rain, or to wear a coat.
Thirty taels is not a small amount, and ordinary fishermen who want to change a boat for thirty taels have to save up for many years as a family.
Ye Yu thought about it for a long time, and finally decided to buy the small fishing boat with a canopy. The fishing boat was too big for her to row, so it was fine.
Even Qiu didn't persuade her when she saw that she really liked it, and the couple helped her talk about the price for a long time, and finally said that it would be 28 taels of silver.
Although the price was negotiated, it was not so easy to get the boat. Formal boat sales must be filed with the county government, but Ye Yu's mother and daughter have not yet completed their household registration, so they can only wait for the household registration to be completed before paying for the boat.
Ye Yu paid a deposit of 500 Wen and left by boat.
The boatseller left the dock here, and Lian Qiu directly asked her husband to send the little girl to the dock. In this way, after returning to the village, take a car to the county seat.
The little girl happily rowed the raft back to Baoshan Island, and the guys waiting outside the village also spent a few pennies to get her information.
When he learned that the mother and daughter had been driven away from a nearby island, he had an idea.
Orphans and widows must be very timid, and when they sneak up to the island at night, they will intimidate, take the money, and leave. It was so dark, no one knew that he was robbing the money!
The guy made up his mind and turned around and slipped back to the county town and borrowed a boat from his fox friend.
At this time, Ye Yu had just returned to Baoshan Island.
used to be stable in front of outsiders, but now when she sees A-Niang, she can't help but have a sour nose.
Xu thought that his daughter was being bullied, and as soon as he got angry, he saw his daughter handing him a piece of paper.
"What is this?"
Although she didn't know the words, she knew that there were two red handprints on the paper, and a stamp, which was definitely a very important thing.
"This is the voucher that Li Zheng gave us, and you can go to the county government with it!"
Ye Yu thought that his family would be able to get rid of his grandmother in the future, and his heart was extremely happy, and his years of grievances had finally come to an end, even if Daddy and his eldest brother came back, his family would not have to go back to be a cow and a horse!
But the Xu family who heard this was not as happy as Ye Yu imagined, she was stunned for a while before hesitating: "Yu'er, do we have to move out of our household registration?" ”
Ye Yu's happy tears and excitement were instantly blocked by A-Niang's words.
Yes...... How did she forget, A-Niang is used to being a filial daughter-in-law, and it is undoubtedly unfilial to move her household registration from her grandmother like this.
The little girl had some indescribable disappointment in her heart, she thought that after going through so many things, she could make A-Niang sober up, but she didn't expect A-Niang to react like this after taking this certificate.
Probably because the disappointment on her face was too obvious, Xu finally reacted.
"Yu'er, A-Niang, A-Niang doesn't blame you. I just want your father and eldest brother to come back sooner or later, and their household registration will be restored by then. Now that your grandmother has not separated from the family, your father and eldest brother's household registration will definitely still be with them after the household registration is restored. Naturally, our family is still not separated......"
"If you're worried about this, then there's no need."
Ye Yu had already considered this problem and asked Li Zheng today, so this piece of paper is the proof that grandma is in charge of dividing their three rooms.
At that time, Grandpa Lizheng played a little clever, and the voucher said that the three rooms would be divided. When they finished writing and reading it to their grandmother, they had no objection, because now the third room is themselves and A-Niang.
In the future, if Daddy and eldest brother come back, they will be able to do an independent household registration with this certificate, in short, grandma will not want to take care of her own family again.
Xu Shi was stunned for a while after hearing this, as if he couldn't believe that the mountain pressing on his head was gone.
"If we set up a female household, we will no longer be afraid of being discovered by our grandmother and leaving the money we will earn in the future. Auntie, if the money is snatched away by grandma, they won't help find daddy and eldest brother. ”
Ye Yu's words instantly hit Xu's death hole. Filial piety is important in her eyes, but the lives of her husband and son are even more important.
"Good! After a while, A-Niang will go with you to get the household registration! ”
Xu's eyes were firm, and he had obviously made a decision. This made Ye Yu breathe a sigh of relief. She was really afraid that A-Niang would not listen to her words and would not agree to move out, which would be a real headache.
"Auntie, I'm so hungry, do you have anything to eat?"
"Yes, yes, boil the chicken soup, and you can drink it when it's cold."
Xu was not idle at home in the morning, and after washing his and his daughter's clothes, he cleared the land in front of the thatched hut and prepared for expansion. After cleaning up, I went to pick up enough firewood to burn for several days, and by the way, I also cut sweet bananas.
"This chicken soup is very fragrant today, so I put a little salt and ginger slices."
As soon as the casserole was revealed, the rich aroma of chicken came to the nose, and the person and dog next to him subconsciously shrugged their noses.
It smells so good!
The little black tail was wagging non-stop, and he was very excited.
"This chicken was caught by Xiao Hei, I have to scoop you up a few more pieces of meat."
Xu was afraid of burning Xiao Hei, so he scooped a bowl of sharp tips and put it aside to cool first, and then turned his head to scoop a bowl of soup for his daughter.
The mother and daughter are quite pitiful, and they can smell the stewed chicken soup in the stove room during the Chinese New Year over the years. Of course, the chicken is for the men, and they can only drink the soup. I drank it in a light soup that had been mixed with water several times.
Ye Yu never knew that the chicken soup was so delicious, and he couldn't wait to swallow his tongue together.
The mother and daughter were halfway through eating, and Xiao Hei finally drank the pheasant soup that he had been thinking about. Xu was careful, scooping up big pieces of meat without hard bones, and eating it with fragrant chicken soup made its tail shake out of the afterimage.
After eating and drinking, Ye Yu and her mother began to tidy up the things in the house. The more unusual and conspicuous things have been received under the bed for the time being, and only some more ordinary things are placed outside. Then the mother and daughter changed their clothes and shoes, tied up the door and left.
"Xiao Hei, you obediently help me take care of the house, and I'll reward you for eating grilled sausages tomorrow, okay?"
"Wow!"
I don't know if Xiao Hei understood what she said, anyway, when Ye Yu, who walked out from afar, turned around, he was still sitting obediently at the intersection.
An hour later
Ye Yu took A-Niang and stepped into the gate of the county government again. This time, she was not so nervous, and she could also separate her mind to comfort the anxious Auntie.
This time, it was not Liu Wenshu who received her, but the master of the book, who was in charge of household registration.
Master Qin took the voucher written in Li Zheng and flipped through it several times, his brows furrowed for a long time, and he asked uncertainly after a while: "Do you really want to set up a female household?" After setting up a female household, she will have to pay all the head taxes, grain taxes, etc. by herself. ”
Before Xu could answer, he heard a very firm answer from his daughter beside him.
"Yes! We want to set up a female household! ”
