Chapter 8437 surprise and joy
"Your fourth uncle asked you to divide the twenty-five taels of silver from our fourth house. If you give it all to me, I won't refuse, hahaha..." Mrs. Liu laughed so hard that her gums came out, and she didn't know.
At noon, I went to someone's house to eat and drink again, and there were various vegetable leaves stuck in the gaps between my teeth.
Yang Ruoqing could even find the white fibrous things in the oranges that Liu had eaten here before...
Ahhhh, she was so annoyed at her sharp eyesight at this moment. Having good eyesight can sometimes be a disservice.
Everyone was busy, so Yang Ruoqing didn't hesitate and directly gave Bao Suyun twenty-five taels of snowflake silver. Bao Suyun was still embarrassed to accept it.
"I didn't do anything, so why do I still get so much money..."
"Fifth Aunt, people are in high spirits during happy events. They even wave to you with money. Since it was given by Master Zhang, then take it!"
Bao Suyun left happily with the money in her arms. Luo Fengtang followed Bao Suyun quietly, escorting her all the way into the courtyard door of the fifth room before turning back.
In the bedroom, Yang Ruoqing counted ten taels of silver to Mrs. Liu.
"Fourth Aunt, because Fourth Uncle was involved in the whole process, so I will leave the big head to him and the small head to you."
Mrs. Liu grabbed a silver ingot in one hand, each weighing five taels.
She put two silver ingots to her mouth, tilted her head and bit down hard.
"Ouch……"
I almost knocked my teeth out, but also made Yang Ruoqing laugh.
"Fourth Aunt, you are really a talent. Magistrate Zhang sent you silver notes, and I took out the silver ingots from the box. Do you think I might give you fake silver? Who are you looking down on?"
"Hey, hey, don't be upset, Qing'er. This is an old problem with Fourth Aunt. Of course I believe you. If I don't believe you, who do you believe?"
Of course Mrs. Liu knew that Yang Ruoqing's previous words were meant to be a joke, but she still went along with the explanation and stopped biting the silver ingot. What Qing'er gave her must be true.
"It's okay to put it away. You'll get saliva everywhere on the silver ingot from your bites," Yang Ruoqing said.
"Furthermore, after this silver ingot was made, it was passed around in the hands of countless people. It's extremely dirty. It's really unscrupulous for you to stuff it into your mouth!"
When Mrs. Liu heard what Yang Ruoqing said, she really didn't dare to stuff it into her mouth anymore. She grabbed it and stuffed it into her arms and hid it.
But her mouth was not idle, and she argued with Yang Ruoqing: "Hey, Qing'er, you are wrong about this. Not to mention the fact that a thousand or ten thousand people have touched this silver thing, even if you throw it away
Go into the latrine and dig it out of the excrement and urine. It’s money and it smells good. People care about money, so they don’t think it’s dirty!”
"Oh my god, fourth aunt, please be more careful with your words. It's not that my ears can't stand what I'm hearing, but my stomach can't stand it and I feel like vomiting!"
"Okay, okay, I won't tell you if I don't tell you."
"How's it going, Fourth Aunt? Did the prediction I told you yesterday come true? With these ten taels of silver, you are one step closer to living in a big house!"
Mrs. Liu nodded vigorously, "I'll lend you my good words! It's indeed a big step closer. When the siblings come back during the Chinese New Year, I have to summon them to sit down and discuss building a new house next year!"
Yang Ruoqing smiled.
After seeing off the happy Liu family, Yang Ruoqing looked at the fifteen taels of silver on the table and guessed how much money her fourth uncle had saved for Tiedan so far.
Not counting the fifteen taels on the table, he estimated that he already had nearly twenty taels on hand.
Why do you say that?
Because although Taoist priest Yuan had been disbursing wages for the Taoist temple, Yang Ruoqing also knew about it. After all, he was the owner and had an account book in his hand.
When the third girl got married, the fourth uncle suffered a serious hemorrhage, but after that, he probably saved all his wages from the Taoist temple for Tiedan.
The treatment at the Taoist temple is very good. It is quite possible to save twenty taels of silver in a year.
So, when the time comes, the Fourth Aunt and his mother are planning to build a new house, I wonder if the Fourth Uncle will also join in the effort?
As a member of the family and the backbone of the family, he should have shouldered the burden of building the house...
Forget it, this is the fourth house's housework, and it is a complicated sutra. Yang Ruoqing can't read it, and she doesn't have the time to read it, and there is no need to do it.
Until dinner time, Yang Huaming didn't come to take away his fifteen taels of silver, so Luo Fengtang took the silver and gave it to him personally.
In the fifth room, Bao Suyun took the money back and showed it to Yang Huazhou. Both of them were very excited.
Yang Huazhou said: "This is really an unexpected fortune. It just happens to coincide with our daughter's wedding. It's a double happiness!"
Bao Suyun nodded repeatedly, "Isn't that right? How many people can't earn this amount of money for twenty-five taels of silver in several years!"
"Then...Suyun, what do you think of this money?"
"Lao Wu, whatever you think, I think too."
Yang Huazhou thought for a moment and said, "I want to give our daughter another dowry before she gets married."
Bao Suyun smiled gently and was not surprised at all by Yang Huazhou's proposal.
"Okay, let's add makeup to my daughter."
Although the family's dowry was already quite large, the son-in-law Ye Yi spent all his savings over the years and bought such a nice house in the county.
But after buying so much, the couple probably only had a small amount of dowry left on hand.
By adding some more inside, the young couple can live a more generous and practical life.
"Then tell me, how much should I add?" Bao Suyun asked Yang Huazhou again.
Yang Huazhou thought for a while, "I gave up everything I thought about. We have raised our daughter for more than ten years, and from now on she will get married and can't live by our side..."
Bao Suyun nodded, "Indeed, even if a daughter can return to her parents' home, once she gets married, she is still married. Ye Yi's home is her real home."
But there were some words that Bao Suyun was a little scrupulous about and it was not convenient for him to say them.
In addition to the daughter Mianmian, there is also Dabao in the family.
Even if Dabao loves his sister and won't care about it with her, what about Dabao's daughter-in-law Gui Ling?
The daughter-in-law that Ming Media is marrying will be the one to take charge of the family in the future. Will the daughter-in-law have no idea?
Even if the twenty-five taels of silver were given to Mianmian as a dowry, in the future all the money earned by the fifth child would be used to support Dabao and his wife, but that is also a matter of the future. At this time, I am still worried about what my daughter-in-law has in mind.
But Bao Suyun could only keep these worries in her heart. She was very troubled and did not dare to tell Yang Huazhou.
Everything else is okay, but not this.
Why?
Isn't it because Dabao is not Yang Huazhou's biological child?
Even though Yang Huazhou has taken Dabao as his biological son over the years, Bao Suyun is still very grateful. However, compared to Mian Mian, who is truly his biological son, Yang Huazhou wants to support Mian Mian more. This is human nature!
"Suyun, I've thought about it carefully. I can't give all of these twenty-five taels of silver to Mianmian. We have two children, so we need a bowl of water to keep the balance."
