486. If you have an opinion, you have to hold it back

Liu had never eaten lotus root, and it was the first time he had even seen it, and he had never heard of such a thing as lotus root before.

The first time I ate lotus root, I conquered Liu's mouth and stomach.

But it's delicious when mixed cold, but it doesn't mean it's delicious when fried!

If it's not delicious, it's not a waste of a plate of lotus root!

It's a pity that she is not the one in charge, so even if she doesn't want to waste it, she has to try.

The end result......

The Liu clan has been conquered again!

Then there are all kinds of pickling, all kinds of stir-frying, and several kinds of lotus root soup, and also made lotus root boxes, lotus root cakes, if it is not for the lack of ingredients, there must be more to do.

At the noon lotus root banquet, the whole family was amazed, and they could grow such delicious things in the mud without earning it!

The others just rushed to eat the lotus root, only Lin Chaodong glanced at Liu thoughtfully, and then at the dishes on the table, and the action of picking up the vegetables was obviously half a beat slower than the others.

It's just that everyone eats happily, no one cares who has a slow hand, a fast hand or a slow hand, and in the end, you can only blame yourself for eating less.

This meal, no matter what others feel, Yue Jiujiu is very satisfied, there are meat and vegetarian, hot soup and cold dishes, which is happier than what he ate during the Mid-Autumn Festival yesterday.

In the afternoon, a group of people continued to dig lotus roots, and Yue Jiujiu was no longer idle, helping to wash the lotus roots together, and they would be pulled to the county seat to sell tomorrow.

It was also the next day that he followed Lin Chaonan and Lin Chaobei to sell lotus root in the county seat, and Lin Chaodong knew that there were not only ox carts at home, but also horse-drawn carriages!

Last time, Lin Chaonan and Lin Chaobei drove a carriage to the state city to see him, and at that time he thought that the carriage was hired.

On the day he first came back, he only knew that there was an ox cart at home, and when Lin Chaonan drove the carriage back, he happened to take Da Zhuang to play around, but he didn't see it.

O carriage! The family even has a carriage, does that prove that the family is not as poor as he thinks?

Besides, the family is planting fruit trees, building houses, hiring people to work, and buying more than a dozen people, so it doesn't look like they have no money!

He is not as demanding as when he first went to the state capital, and he doesn't dare to listen to Liu's words, just thinking about getting more money from his mother, no need to buy any second courtyard, no third courtyard, no need to go to any rich area, noble area, just buy a single courtyard in the land of ordinary people, and it will not cost a hundred taels of silver, his mother should agree, right?

As for whether the Liu family will be angry at that time, that is a matter for the future, and it is the most important thing for him to gain a firm foothold in the state city first.

The lotus root sold faster than expected, it was sold out in an hour, and the buyers were mostly large families, as well as restaurants and restaurants.

On the way home, Lin Chaodong's head was not idle, he kept thinking about the carriage, about the family's money, about buying a house, and after returning home, he didn't find a chance to be alone with Yue Jiu.

"Mother, I want to buy a small courtyard in the state city, I have inquired, in the area where I live, it is enough to buy a small courtyard for almost fifty taels of silver, and then repair it, add some furniture or something, and it will not cost a hundred taels of silver, mother, can you help me?"

In the last sentence, Lin Chaodong's voice became smaller and smaller, mainly because he felt that begging their mother so much in front of his two younger brothers made him feel a little shameless, he was the eldest in the family, when did he ever whisper so low in front of his two younger brothers.

The most important thing is that he is still afraid that their mother will not save him face at all, in case he refuses in front of his two younger brothers, he feels that he will not have the face to come back for the New Year!

"Boss, although we haven't split up yet, the head of the family spends the most money, not to mention anything else, this year alone has spent two or three hundred taels of silver, right? How should this money be calculated? ”

She has four sons! She never thought of giving more than half of the old family, and the remaining three brothers divided it equally, since they are all her Yue Jiujiu's sons, even if they are not biological, then it should be a bowl of water.

The old family has already spent so much money, and Yue Jiujiu didn't think about coming back, but he had to have an explanation for this matter, or when she made up for the other three brothers from the other side, she hoped that the boss and his daughter-in-law would not have an opinion at that time.

"Mother......

Lin Chaodong didn't expect that if the money didn't arrive, his mother would settle old accounts with him, which he didn't expect, after all, no one had ever had this kind of thing, right? Shouldn't it all be after the elders are almost gone, or they are gone, and then the famous elders in the village preside over the settlement and division of the family property?

This suddenly settled the old account with him, and blindfolded Lin Chaodong all of a sudden, and his big eyes peeked at Yue Jiujiu from time to time, and then looked at the two younger brothers, but the two younger brothers were stupid, and they didn't give him any response.

What the hell is wrong, why don't you explain it to him? Don't you really think as he thinks, what serious illness does his mother have, and she will be sick soon?

However, looking at his mother's ruddy face, she can eat and sleep, and she doesn't look like it!

Lin Chaodong was entangled, but his mother was still staring at him and waiting for an answer, and if he continued to grind, the sky would be dawn.

"Mother, aren't we not separated, how can this money be counted like this? Besides, I didn't pay for Da Zhuang and his mother's medical treatment. ”

He didn't think that Yue Jiujiu meant to ask him to pay back the money, after all, they were all a family, and if they talked about paying back the money or something, it was really an outsider.

"Well, just know what you know. I mention this, but also to tell Kai that the Kai family has already spent two or three hundred taels of silver in the family, and this is only what the Kai family spent this year. ”

After thinking about it, Yue Jiujiu added another sentence:

"Even if you have an opinion, you have to hold it back!"

Brothers and sisters who love each other, once they become a family, they are no longer a family with their hearts in one place and their efforts in one place, so if they are partial, they will take the initiative to create conflicts for the children in the family, even if this is ancient times, the eldest son of the long house has an advantage, Yue Jiujiu did not plan to let Lin Chaodong take advantage of it, and the hearts of other sons were cold.
