Chapter VIII Considerations

Shinong industry and commerce, the lowest merchant status, merchants are highly profitable, and all dynasties have imposed many restrictions on merchants.

After the founding of the Great Qi Dynasty, although the restrictions on merchants were not as high as those of the previous dynasties, merchants were still not allowed to participate in scientific examinations.

In order to cope with this law, some merchants passed their sons to good families, changed their household registration, changed their surname, and were able to participate in scientific examinations.

What if you don't want to change your surname?

Either choose someone with the same surname or join the family.

If you go to the woman's home, you don't need to change your surname, and you can also follow the woman's household registration to participate in the imperial examination.

Although there are such two methods, but it is not very practical, whether it is to change the surname or into the family, it is regarded as a betrayal of the ancestors, and it is not easy to pass the review of changing the household registration, all the business registration of more than 10,000 taels of family property to change the household registration, must be sent to the capital for review.

If you want to pass the review in the capital, I don't know how much money it will cost, it is better to marry your daughter to the official family as a concubine, and use the convenience brought by the in-laws.

"This ......" Chen Yunniang hesitated, after all, it was her daughter's lifelong event.

Ye Zhengwen persuaded, "I am Shu'er's father, so naturally I won't harm her." Mingting's appearance is as good as our Shu'er, and his conduct is also good, our Shu'er's little tiger girl, I'm afraid it will be difficult to find such a husband in the future. ”

Chen Yunniang glared at Ye Zhengwen dissatisfiedly, "Did you say that about your daughter?"

Ye Zhengwen hehe, "Yun Niang, this matter is not in a hurry, you ask Shu'er's opinion first, and we will consider it later." ”

Chen Yunniang thought about it, her husband would never harm her daughter, so she nodded, "Then I'll ask tomorrow first." ”

Ye Zhengwen bowed his head, although he didn't have a single stroke, he was still in a relaxed mood.

The child of the Xiao family, I have seen it several times when Brother Xiao was alive, he is a child with good conduct, he has been a bookkeeper in the county for so many years, and he has seen a lot of people, but he doesn't think that any child is better than this child.

Therefore, when Xiao Mingting came to him, Ye Zhengwen agreed without thinking about it for a long time.

One is because of the life-saving grace of the year, and the other is that I really feel that this child is as good as my daughter.

The two people in the house finalized the matter, and Ye Yunshu, one of the parties outside the house, was sitting on the steps looking at Xiao Mingting, another party who was one meter away from him.

"Sister, why don't we go in. Ye Yunzhong was also curious about who Xiao Mingting was at first, and pestered Xiao Mingting and said a lot of words, but Xiao Mingting didn't pay a word.

Ye Yunzhong's children felt bored, but it was not fun to sit down, and they wanted to go in to see their parents, but their sister didn't let them.

"Why are you going in, being a light bulb?" Ye Yunshu replied without turning his head a little.

"Light bulb?" Ye Yunzhong looked dazed, "Sister, what is a light bulb?"

Ye Yunshu retracted his gaze at this time, changed the topic and said, "My mother is pregnant, and we have a little brother or little sister in our family, Erlang, are you happy?"

Ye Yunzhong's eyes suddenly lit up, and then turned into doubts again, "But doesn't my mother have a stomachache?

As soon as Ye Yunzhong said this, Ye Yunshu suddenly remembered that he hadn't gone to Dr. Xu in Dayao Village to get the medicine, looked at the sky, and it should be about the same back and forth, so he stood up.

"Sister?"

Ye Yun saw Ye Yunshu get up again, and he also got up, he was a little unhappy, why didn't his sister answer him?

Ye Yunshu knocked on the door, "Dad, mother, I'm going to Dayao Village to get medicine, you can bring me some copper plates." ”

After Ye Yunshu knocked on it, he stood at the door and waited, and the door opened after a while.

Ye Zhengwen took a small piece of broken silver to Ye Yunshu and instructed, "Go early and return early." ”

"Good. Ye Yunshu responded and pulled Ye Yunzhong together, "Go, follow me." ”

Ye Yun wanted to refuse again, but he was stunned by his sister's serious gaze.

Ye Yunshu knew her father's plan the next day, and when she heard that Xiao Mingting was her nominal fiancΓ©, she was stunned for a minute.

Of course, Ye Zhengwen had already gone to the county at this time, and he couldn't stand his daughter's trouble.

"Mother, do you think I can't get married?" Ye Yunshu asked with a twisted eyebrow.

Chen Yunniang took the fetal protection pill, her face improved a lot, and she looked at Ye Yunshu and smiled slightly, "Isn't it?

"It's not too early. Ye Yunshu felt that Chen Yunniang was a little worried, "I'm only eleven, do I need to make a marriage so early?"

"I planned early, and my mother felt stable. Chen Yunniang said, touching her stomach, "Shu'er, your father Mingting is a good boy with a good character, you get along first, if you really don't like it, your father and mother won't force you." ”

Ye Yunshu didn't care so much about the defense of men and women, and she didn't care about reputation or anything, otherwise she wouldn't dare to force Ye Li with a knife.

But she felt that this Xiao Mingting obviously did not meet the conditions for the inverted door.

Not to mention anything else, yesterday I could touch out ten taels of silver without frowning!

"Mother, has my father been deceived?" Ye Yunshu thought about it, the more he felt that this was very likely.

"What are you cheating?" Chen Yunniang thought it was funny, "What do we have to cheat?"

Ye Yunshu thought about it, yes, if you want to deceive, it's not to deceive her family, and her father just borrowed money from someone last year, so it seems like a deception to deceive her family.

"But ......" Ye Yunshu twisted his eyebrows, still feeling a little incomprehensible, "He doesn't look like an upside-down door, you see the silk he wears, he borrowed ten taels of silver to his father yesterday without blinking his eyes." ”

"What?!" Chen Yunniang's eyes widened, "Your father borrowed ten taels of silver!!"

Why didn't you tell her all night at home?

Chen Yunniang felt a little panicked in her heart, ten taels of silver, what did he do with it......?

Chen Yunniang was thinking nonsense in her head, and Ye Yunshu hurriedly said, "Mother, mother." Don't think about it, the ten taels of silver were given to the Lao Ye family, and we don't have to give the Lao Ye family any more money every month in the future. ”

Chen Yunniang felt strange, "Your grandmother will agree?"

has been the daughter-in-law of the Ye family for so many years, Chen Yunniang still knows the Ye Li family very well, this is obviously a loss-making transaction.

Is she willing to suffer?

"The second uncle and the third uncle lost thirty taels by playing with money. Ye Yunshu smiled, "Grandma, they were in a hurry to use the money to send the casino to ask for accounts, so I asked my father to borrow ten taels of silver for grandma, and then asked for the paperwork of the year and tore it up." ”

Chen Yunniang naturally knew that this was not her husband's idea, and looking at her daughter's clever appearance, she reached out and nodded her forehead, "You are the most clever." ”

But she thought about it again and sighed, "Ten taels of silver, how can I get it!"

Even if you don't have to give Lao Ye's family "monthly money" now, but she is pregnant again, and it costs a lot of money to raise a child, and she will save at most one or two silver this year.

Wouldn't that be ten years?

Chen Yunniang felt that the mountain on her back was still pressed steadily.

"It's always worth it if you try harder. Ye Yunshu is not as anxious as Chen Yunniang, the family has hands and feet, as long as they are not lazy, they are not afraid.

Chen Yunniang sighed and asked again: "What do you think of this family business?

Ye Yunshu felt a little confused, to be honest, she really hadn't thought about family affairs, and when she asked her all of a sudden, she was also blind.

"Mother, let me think about it. ”

"Okay. Chen Yunniang also knew that her daughter needed time to think about it when she suddenly decided to marry, so she agreed, and said, "After you think about it, go to the county and tell your father." ”

"Good. Ye Yunshu thought about it, and then instructed, "By the way, mother, yesterday I went to Dr. Xu to get medicine, Dr. Xu said, your fetus is not stable, it is best not to go out for the first three months, just take care of it at home." ”

"Is it so serious?" Chen Yunniang frowned.

"Hmm. Ye Yunshu nodded solemnly, "It's always good to be careful, wait for the first three months, it's good to be stable." ”

Yesterday's abdominal pain was still fresh in my memory, and Chen Yunniang didn't think much about it, nodding, "Okay, my mother knows." ”

Ye Yunshu quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

She was really afraid that Chen Yunniang would go out and hear the gossip of the old Ye family yesterday, and in two months, the matter would fade, and the fetus would be stable, even if it was emotionally fluctuating, it would be much better than knowing it at this time.
