"Dad!" Gu Xi opened her lips slightly, not knowing what to say. Before she came, she told the head of the house that it would be better for them to come together! But the head of the house insisted on begging his mother and refused to come to the Gu family.
She knew that she was embarrassed to borrow money from her parents, but what was the use of begging his mother? Even if his mother had money, could she get eighteen taels to give him? Not to mention, his mother would not agree at all.
Give.
"Sister! Dad is right. For such a big thing as borrowing money, shouldn't my brother-in-law come with me? It's almost dark, but you, a woman, are allowed to walk back to your parents' house alone. How can he feel at ease?" Gu Chengyi said.
Ci also agrees with his father's words, there are eighteen taels of silver! The brother-in-law asked the eldest sister to come back and borrow it alone? Is this too low to do?
How can there be such a good thing in the world? His eldest sister came back to borrow money. Do you plan to pay it back? But these taxes are the taxes of the old Wang family. It doesn't make sense for the Gu family to give money to the old Wang family, right? The Gu family is not just one in-law, there are two
If a daughter-in-law’s mother-in-law’s family came to borrow money, would they be able to borrow it or not? How could they have so much money to borrow?
Gu Chengyu thought about it carefully. He must borrow the money, but how to borrow it? The Wang family has to come up with a charter, right? Although, Gu Chengyu didn't pay attention to this little money, so it doesn't matter if it goes out. But at the moment, the Gu family's
There is not much money, and there are quite a few in-laws in the Gu family. They will all come to borrow it, so what? Besides, after all, this matter is not the eldest brother-in-law’s business alone. Could it be that the Wang family doesn’t even want to give out a tael of silver?
?
"Sister! Come out, do your father-in-law and mother-in-law know?" Gu Chengyu planned to ask clearly, fearing that the Wang family really planned to let the Gu family pay for it!
"Ah? I know! Your brother-in-law took me to beg my parents-in-law, but they refused, so I came back to borrow money." In fact, what Gu Xi didn't say was that her parents-in-law directly shouted at her to come back and ask for it, saying that her parents had made money.
She got rich, but she didn't care about her daughter at all, and she couldn't get any benefits. Anyway, her mother-in-law insisted that she had no money, so she asked her to come back and ask for it.
When Gu Chengyu heard this, he knew that the Wang family was afraid that the Gu family had bought land in Xialing Village some time ago, and they thought that they had money, so they refused to pay out a penny. Even if they took out the money, they would definitely not be able to get it.
Yes, but whether to take it or not is a matter of attitude. Is it possible that we can still rely on his family?
"Xizi, you can't make the decision on this matter. You stay at home tonight, and I will send you back early tomorrow morning. I will take your eldest brother and the others with me to see what your parents-in-law say. Although you have separated, but
Corvee service is not your family’s business. Your parents-in-law are clearly plotting against our Gu family! You have to know that our Gu family is not just your family’s in-laws. If our family is happy with it, other families will come to borrow it.
It doesn’t make sense. But our Gu family doesn’t have that much money! The money from selling ginseng is used to buy land, build a house, and add in the family taxes, and there won’t be much left.”
Father Gu thought for a while, but still felt that he couldn't give the Wang family a free advantage. The eldest daughter was from the Wang family, not the Gu family. Tomorrow he was going to go home with Gu Xi, and he would give the money, but their Wang family
Don’t even think about being penniless.
"Dad! That money?" Gu Xi was still a little worried that her father would not come up with the money.
"Don't worry about the money. Anyway, my son-in-law won't go to work as a corvee. Just stay at home and live peacefully. Boss, let your wife and Xizi spend the night together while you go and meet the third and fourth children.
Come on, get up early tomorrow. I'll ask Lao Wangtou to take Xiaobao to town. You and the second son will follow me to take Xizi back. Xizi, when you separated, no one came to call us. After the new year, you come back and say,
I didn’t want our family to help you, so I didn’t mention it. But you have to know that no matter what, you are also the daughter of our Gu family who has stepped out. Dad will not leave you alone, let alone our family.
So many brothers.”
Father Gu knew that since he married Mr. Lu, his children had become separated from him. He also admitted that sometimes he was indeed partial, but he did not leave these children alone? His family used to be poor.
, he also gave Zhang Luo the daughters-in-law of the eldest and second eldest children. When Gu Xi got married, he didn't ask for a lot of betrothal gifts. He married Gu Xi because he fell in love with the younger brother of the old Wang family and Wang Quanshou was quite honest.
"Hey! Dad!" Gu Chengli responded. He didn't know what to say, and his father had the final say in everything in the family. He believed that his father would not ignore Xizi.
"Yes! Sister! We don't care what the Wang family plans. If they ask the boss of the Wang family to go, we can't control it. But you and our Gu family have broken bones and tendons, and the daughter of the Gu family who goes out is not someone to be bullied."
Gu Chengyi also advised Gu Xi. He believed that his father would definitely pay for the money. He just wanted to go to the Wang family to ask for an explanation, and he also wanted to show it to everyone. The Gu family didn't have much money, so don't always worry about his family's money.
"You are speaking lightly. How much silver is that? Eighteen taels! And you want us to give it to the Gu family? Then no matter how much money our family has, it is not enough for everyone to pay. You gave it to Xizi today.
, tomorrow, all the relatives at home will come to your door, what should you do?"
Mrs. Lu was a little angry when she saw that Mr. Gu and the others had taken over this matter again. No matter how many ways Xiaobao tried, he could not earn enough money.
Apart from the money earned by Xiaobao, I don't have a penny to live on. If this continues, the family will be completely ruined.
"I have a plan for this matter. Okay! Everyone is tired! Let's go down and have a rest!" Father Gu thought that he would have to pass the Lu family later, so he sent everyone away first.
.
"His aunt, please sleep in our room today! Let's go!" Fang had always had no sense of presence. Seeing that the discussion was over, she stepped forward and took Gu Xi back to rest.
Although Gu Xi is still a little worried, she also knows that her father has an idea, so she can only go back with Fang to rest. The rest will have to wait until tomorrow. But she doesn't have any money, so she doesn't feel confident yet.
Gu Chengyi and his wife returned to the west wing. He closed the door and saw his two sons playing on the kang, so he walked to the edge of the kang and sat down.
"My father? Why do you think our father is so generous this time? When the eldest sister came to borrow it, he agreed to it?" Mr. He was a little confused. Why was his father willing to borrow so much money?
"The eldest sister is his daughter. Dad can't just watch the eldest brother-in-law die, right? If something happens to the eldest brother-in-law, how can the Wang family take care of this orphan and widowed mother? Dad can't just watch." Gu Chengyi just washed up.
Okay, now, take off your shoes and get on the kang directly.
"Tell me, if we really lend all the money to my eldest sister, will our family have no money to build a house?" Mrs. Lu was a little worried that the big blue brick house with tiles had gone away, and she would not be able to live in such a good house in the future.
.
"You're a woman, why are you bothering with this? You can't escape the care of the house." Gu Chengyi estimated that he had the money to build the house, and there was still some leftover. After all, although he wanted to build two entrances, but these two entrances
It is different from the two houses in the town and county. It is not that big and has fewer houses.
"Ouch! Who would want to live in a stuffy and hot little house after thinking about the bright big tile-roofed house? His father, look, our family still has some money left, what about my eldest brother? His family must also obey
