Chapter 18 The first small meeting of the Yun family
"Uncle the village chief, uncle the village chief."
"Coming, coming." Mrs. Chen, the village chief's daughter-in-law, responded quickly.
"Yunyi is back. Have you eaten? Go home and have something to eat. Your uncle is in the house."
"Auntie, no, I'm just going to return the cart. This pack of snacks was bought from the town. You can sweeten it for the children at home, and I'll go back."
"Oh, I can't take it, I can't take it. It's too expensive. It will cost a lot of money. You can take it back and feed it to your children. They belong to the same clan, so there is no need to be so open-minded."
"That's fine, my mother told me. Besides, there are still some at home, so just keep them."
After saying that, he pushed the things away, quickly drove the bullock cart into the village chief's yard, and left without saying a word.
When the village chief's wife returned to the house, the village chief asked: "Is it Dayun, old woman?"
"Yes, the boss of the Yun family came to deliver the bullock cart and gave him a bag of snacks. I refused to take them. This kid put it in my arms and ran away."
Mrs. Chen opened the snack paper package and put it on the dining table and said helplessly.
Several children in the village chief's family looked at the sweet and fragrant pastries they brought and swallowed their saliva greedily, but did not reach out to take them. This shows that the village chief's family has a good tutor.
"If you give it, take it and give the child a share."
"Thank you, grandpa." The child thanked him happily.
The village chief's wife listened to her old man's words and said: "After dinner, we will have snacks, one for each person."
"Thank you, grandma, you are so kind." A group of dolls replied happily.
…
Mrs. Zhao was surrounded by Yundong, Daya and Erya and returned to the main room. Old Yun was already sitting at the table in the room. When he saw his wife coming back, he stood up and quickly took the bundle in his hand.
"Old lady, why are you back so late? Nothing went wrong."
Old Man Yun had been absent-minded all day, fearing that something would happen to his old wife. If it weren't for the fact that the wheat harvest at home had not been finished, he would have gone to the county town with his wife.
"It's okay, it's okay. I'm not coming back from the county. I passed through Jixiang Town and visited my elder brother's house. I wasted some time, so I came back late."
"As long as it's okay, it's okay. As long as it's okay, have the things been sold?"
"It's sold. We'll talk about this later when the boss comes back. You guys don't stand here anymore."
"The eldest daughter-in-law, the second daughter-in-law, bring all the food over, eat first, and then talk about things after eating."
Li Wanrou and Xiao Zhao responded in unison: "Hey, okay, mother."
In the kitchen, Mrs. Zhao had been curious for a day and wanted to ask, but she was also afraid that her sister-in-law would not tell her that her mother was back. She finally asked Li Wanrou while the meal was being served: "Sister-in-law, did you know that your mother is going with your eldest brother?"
What are you doing? Tell me, what kind of treasure is my mother selling? How much money can it be sold for?"
"I don't know about this either. My mother just came back. Didn't my mother say we'll talk about this later after dinner? My second brother and sister will know later."
"Okay." Little Zhao curled her lips.
On the other side, Yunyi gave the cakes in his hand to the village chief's wife, then ran away and was already home.
"Boss, has the stuff been delivered?"
"Mom, it's been delivered."
"Okay, go wash your hands and eat. We'll talk about it after dinner."
…
After eating and cleaning up, all the adults of the Yun family were in the main room, and Da Ya led her younger brothers and sisters to the room to have snacks.
Mrs. Yun took the package to the table and opened it, and the white money appeared in front of everyone.
"When I came back last night, I found some treasures in the weeds near our house. I went to the county to exchange money today. Our family members only need to know about this. We are not allowed to tell others, especially your mother's family."
When Mrs. Zhao said this, she looked specifically at Little Zhao, making it clear that she was speaking to Little Zhao.
When her mother-in-law looked at her, little Zhao muttered in her heart and said, "Mom, you see what you said, we will definitely not tell my mother-in-law's family, right sister-in-law."
Li Wanrou: "..." It's none of my business, my mother is talking about you.
Mrs. Zhao doesn't care whether Xiao Zhao is real or fake. Anyway, only she knows how much money she sold, but she will definitely not say too much in front of her daughter-in-law.
"A total of five hundred taels of silver were sold. I discussed this money with your father and kept part of it to buy land. Our land is only fifteen acres. The third one won the scholarship and can be exempted from tax on fifty acres. You and I
Dad discussed it and planned to buy another thirty-five acres of land, which would be enough for fifty acres."
"Lao San and Xiao Bei still need to study. Of these fifty acres, I am going to give 20 acres to our clan as farmland for the clan. When Lao San becomes a scholar, the clan members will put the land in his name.
, tax exemption, there are many people involved, if you give it to this but not to that, it will offend everyone if you give it, so just don’t give it to anyone. Now with this money, twenty acres will be given to the family, and the food grown will be earned by the family at will.
Let's figure it out, so that these relatives in the village won't say anything." The old man took over what Mrs. Zhao said and said.
"If you have any opinions, please tell me if you have any questions." Old Man Yun looked at his sons and asked.
"Dad, my son has no objection." The three of them replied in unison.
"Dad, what should I do with the rest of the money?" Seeing that her parents-in-law didn't tell her the rest of the arrangements, Xiao Zhao asked anxiously.
Mrs. Zhao glared at the second daughter-in-law and said, "This money belongs to me and your father. You can arrange it however you want. What are you thinking about? We haven't made arrangements yet. Why do you still want to make arrangements?"
Xiao Zhao smiled coquettishly: "Isn't this to see if there is a share of our second wife~"
Mrs. Zhao was speechless because of the way little Mrs. Zhao was cutting meat. "Second brother, take good care of your daughter-in-law. We haven't even separated yet, but she already cares about your mother's money."
Yun Bo's face turned dark when his daughter-in-law opened her mouth. What did she ask? Before her parents made any arrangements, they wanted to intervene. They immediately grabbed Xiao Zhao's hand and whispered: "Shut up, here.
Do you have the right to interrupt? Listen to my parents’ arrangements. If you don’t want to listen, just go out and watch Da Ya Er Ya.”
Xiao Zhao saw her man talking about her with a dark face and didn't dare to speak out. She couldn't go out, otherwise her parents would give most of the money to her eldest brother and brother-in-law. What if they got less? Her man must listen to his parents-in-law.
I don't care about it. My family can't suffer. Thinking of this, I immediately sat down and stopped gnawing.
Seeing that the second brother was taking good care of his wife, Mrs. Zhao ignored her and continued:
"To buy thirty-five acres of land, I need at least 300 taels of silver. One acre of good land is about 7 to 80 taels. I have set aside 300 taels to buy the land, and the remaining 200 taels of silver. I plan to buy an ox cart for my family. Otherwise, the land at home will be
There are more people and fewer people. Your father and I are still old, and the land at home is owned by the boss and the second brother. It will be easier for you to buy an ox cart. The price of the ox cart will be deducted from the three hundred taels. If it is not enough, add more.
"
"The remaining two hundred taels will be kept for home use. The remaining one hundred taels will be divided into 20 taels each by the three of you. The other 40 taels will be used for the third son's study. If there is not enough, we will discuss it later."
"Do you still have any questions? If you have any questions, please speak up."
"Mom, we have no problem." The boss replied.
"Yes, yes, mother's arrangement is very fair." the second child replied.
"Mom, you don't need to give me my twenty taels. I have to pay for my studies. This will be used as my tuition." The third child, Yuntian Xiangxiang, said.
Old Man Yun suddenly said: "No, you keep it for yourself. The money for studying comes from the public house. This applies to the three bedrooms as well. Keep your money to buy some books and pens."
"Yes, thank you, Dad."
"If you have nothing else to do, go back to your house, divide the things you bought today, and take them away together." Mrs. Zhao divided the things and let them take them away.
The three of them took the things, thanked them, and went back to their respective rooms.
