Chapter 112 Theory
Although the tombs of Fu Yuanzhi's father and mother were not as freshly cleaned as those of Song's father and mother, it could still be seen that someone had come to pay their respects.
Fu Yuanzhi put down the food in his hands and bowed down three times.
He just stared at the graves of his parents, as if they were looking at each other. Thousands of words finally converged into one sentence, "Dad, mother, the child is unfilial."
I forgive my son for coming late, I forgive my son for not coming to visit your graves, I forgive my son for coming to see you now...
There were so many things to say. He wanted to tell his parents that he had a girl he liked, and she was Uncle Song's daughter, Song Huan.
He became Ya Yuan and passed the examination.
He is living a good life now and is very satisfied with his current life.
These are all inseparable from Miss Song. I also ask my parents to bless Miss Song and my brother in heaven.
Everything he has now is due to her blessing.
Fu Tai came quietly behind Fu Yuan, and said in an old voice, "The temple will be opened to worship ancestors soon, why are you still here?!"
As soon as these words came out, the people who had just been so angry were startled again.
Fu Family Ancestral Hall.
This is the only day of the year when the entire Fu clan is reunited, so as to prevent a family from becoming further apart.
Fu Tai didn't say much when he saw this.
"Boss Chuan Lin, come here, old man, I have something to tell you."
I have saved seventy-five taels of silver over the years."
This sentence is like a switch, the sound in the whole room is instantly muted, there is silence, and you can hear a pin drop.
But there is nothing we can do about it. There are many people in the family. Who can have the extra ability to support a person who may be admitted to the Juren Examination in the future?
After saying that, Fu Tai left directly.
"So Grandpa Third still remembers that I am from the Fu family?" Fu Yuanzhi said this.
Dad, mom, I'm afraid my son will be unfilial.
Now that Fu Yuanzhi had arrived, he was thinking about how to get the land tax that Fu Yuanzhi had given back to the Liang family to be transferred back to the Fu family.
"You kid, why are you so obsessed with money?"
The whole family was talking to each other, chatting together, talking about which relative had become successful and which relative was a pity.
Fu Yuanzhi sneered, "I remember that my father gave the Fu family five acres of paddy field as family land, just to provide for the younger generation to study.
"Yes, Xuelin gives it directly to the big guys without mentioning any money!"
Fu Yuanzhi sneered and began to calculate the accounts on the spot, "My father donated the paddy fields to the clan the year I was born. Until the drought four years ago, I calculated them at two cents per catty. I will not include the price fluctuations during the period.
This period lasted seventeen years in total.
Grandpa Man was very satisfied with Fu Yuanzhi's behavior, which gave him face. So what if he was a candidate? He had to be obedient in front of him.
"Now you are also a candidate for civil education, and we are all a family. Previously, because you were young and ignorant, you actually gave the land tax quota to the Liang family. Now that you are back, it is just right. With the quota back, the people of the clan will be much more relaxed. You
, I need a lot of help.
When everyone in the room heard about Tian Fu, they unconsciously pricked up their ears and stared at Fu Yuanzhi, as if they wanted to see a flower on his face.
He had already been angry because Fu Yuanzhi hadn't given the Fu family a job. It was just because Fu Yuanzhi didn't come back that he had no place to vent his anger.
Fu Yuanzhi calmed down the emotions on his face, stood up, and looked at Fu Tai.
As soon as these words came out, the tribesmen all looked at each other in surprise, and one person asked, "Why, you still have to pay money? So what is the difference between this and paying a land tax?"
In fact, men are also quite gossipy and jealous, but they are not as obvious as women.
A man in the crowd said, "You are from the Fu clan. We are all connected by blood. How can you compare with the Liang clan?"
Clan Lao A is the oldest among the clan elders. He is used to being complimented, and some think very highly of himself.
That's right, clan schools haven't been opened yet, so they don't have to pay to support Young Master Lin, and the money is enough to support him.
Fu Yuanzhi said, "I have achieved what I have achieved without any contribution from my clan. Now that you want to rely on my name, you have to give me what you deserve."
After the ancestor worship process is over, it is time for everyone to eat together.
Everyone comforts themselves like this.
Fu Tai's hand holding the cane tightened slightly, and he forced a smile on his face, "You kid, what are you talking about when you are celebrating the New Year? Hurry up, I'm waiting for you alone."
You are so promising, you are so promising. I remember when you were just this old, you just knew how to call people, but you didn’t expect that you grew up in the blink of an eye, and even passed the exam..."
If five acres of paddy field were calculated at the original two cents per catty, the income would be thirty taels a year, and fifty-one taels of silver in seventeen years.
We are all people who live by tightening their belts. We dare not and cannot afford to gamble on this kind of thing.
As soon as these words came out, everyone was silent. Fu Yuanzhi's achievements today were indeed due to his own efforts. The Fu family did not pay for it, and they did not even take care of him more.
Fu Yuanzhi came to the clan leader A calmly and respectfully called "Grandpa Man".
As soon as these words came out, the guilty ones were given another shot in the arm, and they all agreed. The whole room was full of people, directly or indirectly accusing Fu Yuanzhi of being ruthless.
"The Liang clan gave me forty taels of silver a year, but what about the clan? What kind of charter is it? If it can be better than the Liang clan, I might consider it." Fu Yuanzhi threw the bomb lightly, looking very businesslike.
Looks like a good amount.
Fu Yuanzhi turned back to look at his father and mother's graves, a hint of pain flashed in his eyes.
As the saying goes, the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. It would be a great honor for our clan to have you and Xuelin, and we as a clan can also benefit from it.
Fu Yuanzhi's arrival was unexpected, and the sound in the ancestral hall suddenly stopped.
Fu Tai's hair is gray, but his wrinkled eyes reveal his shrewdness and ideas.
Fu Yuanzhi didn't say much, he just asked, "If I get my quota back, how much money will the clan be prepared to give me a year?"
After the price increase, the income will be sixty taels a year, which will be twenty-four taels of silver in four years.
Throughout the whole process, the men of the Fu clan obeyed the arrangements of the clan leader Fu Tai.
The paddy field Fu Boan donated could be used to raise his son.
Grandpa Man's wrinkled face tightened as he smiled, and his voice was cold, "What do you mean?"
After the drought, the price of rice increased by four cents per catty for four years.
Why didn't I?
Am I not considered a junior member of the Fu family?"
Fu Yuanzhi walked to the location in his memory.
This is not absolute.
After Fu Yuanzhi paused for enough time for others to use their imagination, he asked, "Excuse me, since this money was not given to me, who was it given to? Or, patriarch, did you save it for future use?"
Fu Tai's eyes flashed with anger, and he recovered in an instant, "I didn't find you at the beginning, so all this money was used to help Xuelin and Qinglin."
Fu Yuanzhi smiled, "Since my cousin received help from the clan, he naturally didn't accept any money from us, which can be regarded as repaying the clan's kindness. But since I don't receive any help from the clan, I naturally have to deal with the situation.
After all, the clan field was also a gift from my father."
