019 Good Day
With Mr. Chu's words, Chu Youde felt very happy, because the thing he cared about most was that his third brother's injury could be saved.
Chu Congrong didn't care, she had thoroughly seen the old man's personality, and his partiality was outrageous. The benefits of having Mrs. Du in one day would definitely not be the same as those of three houses and four houses. Her purpose was to mess up the situation and disrupt tonight's meeting.
According to her assumption, Mrs. Du and the others would soon be eager to get rid of the burden of the third bedroom.
"I really have the courage to turn the tide!"
Chu Congrong did not forget to flatter the old man, "Uncle, I paid thirty taels of debt, twenty taels of hospital examination, and a total of fifty taels. The doctor said that my father will have to rest for at least half a year, and he will pay eight taels a month for half a year, which will cost 48 taels. Please."
Don’t worry, everyone, we won’t waste it. I asked the old man if eight taels are enough to buy ginseng. I only counted two taels for food expenses, so the total is fifty taels.”
"Another fifty taels! Why don't you go and rob the bank? If you spend fifty taels but can't save it, then you'll die!" Mrs. Du couldn't sit still anymore.
"Uncle also spent fifty taels. If he fails the exam, wouldn't he be in trouble?!" Chu Congrong imitated Granny Du's tone and said teasingly.
"You damn girl always curses your uncle, why can't you see your uncle being kind to you? He will definitely pass the exam! The same goes for Da Lang!" Ms. Chen jumped up and wanted to tear her apart.
"Isn't it strange that I couldn't pass the exam? Didn't my uncle fail to pass the exam after more than ten years? According to what the little grandma said, he has already lost money! Little grandma, I have done the calculation for you: the uncle spends at least twenty taels on the imperial examination every year.
If you add one dollar for more than ten years, it will be more than 300 taels! This is a huge pile of money, which can build six large blue brick houses with tiles of three inches, or buy 60 acres of high-quality paddy fields. If you had done this earlier, little grandma,
Isn’t it nice to sit at home and collect rent every day? Are you losing money now?”
Mrs. Du was moved, and she was shocked. It turned out that she had spent more than three hundred taels for these years. In fact, it was only a lot more!
After hearing this, Chu Youyong and Chu Youzhi's faces turned frighteningly dark.
What Chu Youyong thought was, no wonder he didn't even buy new clothes for his children. It turned out that all the money in the family was squandered by his eldest brother! What Chu Youzhi thought was, it seemed that he had asked for less from his family in the past, but in the future
You must order more to save yourself a small amount of money.
Chu Youwen looked up in embarrassment and saw that the expressions of his mother and brothers had changed. He quickly stood up and cursed: "Studying has always been the most expensive thing. Why are you so worried, Wuya? You will only be willing to force me to death."
?"
"Uncle, I'm serious! I'm pretty good at calculations. I just want to help my family figure it out. If uncle is willing, I can also help you calculate the expenses of the big house over the years. Don't worry, I'm not afraid of hard work." Chu Congrong showed.
An innocent smile, the kind that is harmless to humans and animals.
"Boss Wuya, please stop talking! Lao Wuya, tell everyone what you asked about today." Mr. Chu's head was buzzing after hearing this, and he quickly changed the subject.
"Dad, I went to the Shen Mansion today. They agreed to give me twenty taels, and promised to treat Liuqi Lang well, let them eat and sleep with the Shen family's eldest son, and be as close as brothers. They would also send them to study and learn to read."
Chu Youzhi was very proud, thinking that he had contributed a lot to facilitating this matter at this critical moment. In fact, the Shen family's price was thirty taels, so in order to facilitate this matter earlier, he added a few taels more to the original quotation.
When Mr. Chu heard that there were twenty taels, his frown relaxed a lot. He thought about selling grain for twenty taels, and Xiaoliu and Xiaoqi would get twenty taels in exchange for eight taels in cash, and Xiaofeng would have three taels.
There is no need to sell the land, so that the debts owed by the eldest son and the expenses for the three father and son's exams can be settled. As for the third son, he will take care of him slowly for now, and it will not be too late to buy him ginseng to replenish his health after the harvest in autumn.
"Uncle Fifth, it's about my two younger brothers, but our third bedroom doesn't know anything about it?" Chu Congrong looked confused.
Mr. Chu cleared his throat and said: "What's going on with Wuya? Your fifth uncle has found a good way out for Xiaoliu and Xiaoqi, which is to work as a bookboy for the eldest young master of the Shen family in the town. The Shen family promises to treat them as close as their nephews.
I also sent them to study and learn to read. This is a great thing! I specifically asked your fifth uncle not to mention it to your third room until it is completed, so as to save you from having a wasted joy. Now that the Shen family has agreed, isn’t this the same as yours?
Did you say it?"
After hearing this, Chu Youzhi felt his face glow, and Mrs. Zhu straightened her waist.
"Then we, the third room, must thank our fifth uncle."
"Family, why are you being polite to Uncle Wu?" Chu Youzhi felt elated when he thought of having money in his pocket.
"Fifth Uncle, what I'm more concerned about is how much money the Shen family promised to give?" Chu Congrong pretended not to know anything.
Chu Youzhi looked at Mr. Chu and said slowly: "Twenty taels!"
"Great! My father is saved! Tomorrow I will take Xiaoliu and Xiaoqi to the Shen family to thank them in person. If the Shen family gives them money, I will sell ginseng directly to my father after I receive the money!"
Chu Congrong talked about her plan excitedly, as if she was about to get the money.
Mr. Chu and Chu Youzhi suddenly had black lines on their heads!
What Mr. Chu was thinking about was to use it to solve the boss's problem first. Wouldn't it be a big hole if she used it to buy ginseng for the third child? Chu Youzhi was worried that things would go wrong. If this girl went to the Shen Mansion, she would make a fortune!
"Wu Ya, let's use the twenty taels from the Shen Mansion to help your uncle pay off his debts. Your father will keep eggs, rice, and white flour every day. As long as the autumn grains are sold after autumn, I will buy him ginseng to take a good tonic." Mr. Chu couldn't help but put it.
The plan in my mind was expressed.
If the boss fails to repay the debt in time, his hand will be chopped off the day after tomorrow. If something happens to the boss, the boss will be greatly affected. How can there be any drama in the college examination like this!
"Yes, Wuya, I listened to your master. Adults are in charge of their affairs. How much can you, a little girl, know? You are just making trouble." Chu Youzhi quickly spoke up to help.
"Sir, Fifth Uncle, you mean to sell my father's two sons and ask you to exchange them for money to help my uncle pay off his debts, and then my father will lie in bed waiting to die, right?"
Can you be a little more shameless?
"You damn girl, why are you talking so harshly! Why are you waiting for death and living? Didn't your father say that I have to eat eggs, rice, and white flour every day? I just wait for autumn grains to exchange for ginseng before I buy it."
Mrs. Du scolded, thinking that I will buy you a hair then, just wait!
"Autumn Grain, Autumn Grain, who can guarantee that my father can survive until the autumn grain comes out! You are leaving my dad to fend for himself! Uncle Dalang will not die if he takes the exam a year later, but my dad will die if he is not treated well! Since it is for sale
Sons, let’s just sell what we have, we, the third house, don’t ask you to help us sell it!”
Chu Congrong really couldn't bear it anymore and couldn't play the innocent little lamb anymore.
"Stinky girl, why are you so selfish! The imperial examination has always been more difficult every year. Your father and I know this very well. Your uncle is too young to take the exam again! If they pass the exam, you won't
Is he just an official? Isn’t he still helping you? Because you have just recovered from a serious illness, I can’t bear to say a harsh word to you. Why can’t you be considerate, sir?!”
Mr. Chu became so angry that he erupted like an old volcano.
"Haha, is this what you want to say? Are you comfortable saying it now? Please think about it carefully: my father is your legitimate son, and his eldest daughter was sold by you as a child bride a few years ago.
My six-year-old daughter was also sold by you to be a maid! A while ago, I was almost forced to death by you to be used as a match for a ghost marriage. Fortunately, I survived and you thought of selling it to others for happiness! If you couldn’t sell it, you planned to sell her two
As a son, the saddest thing is that he used the money from the sale to help his uncle pay off his gambling debts, leaving him to lie in bed and wait for death! May I ask if my father has done something unethical or treasonous? "Master, uncle
He is your son, and my father is your legitimate son! Are you treating him like this?"
Let's do it even if his face is torn. Chu Congrong doesn't want to pretend to be a good girl anymore.
"You damn girl! I have to die when my father tells me to die! It's not your turn to say what I have decided! Believe it or not, I will ask the family to help you, and the government will not take care of you even if I beat you to death!" Mr. Chu was also really angry.
.
"As the saying goes, only a loving father and a son can be filial! You can go and beat my father to death. Anyway, he is just lying on the bed like a dead man! Or you can just beat all the third bedroom to death. To be honest with you, I went to Dong'an Academy today.
I found that for only two pennies, there were people rushing to help write the complaint! As long as one of my three bedrooms is still alive, I guarantee that all the scandals about the Chu family will be revealed! All the talented people should go to hell, bah! Such a despicable character.
Even if you become an official in the future, you will bring disaster to the country and the people, and you may end up confiscating your family and exterminating your clan!"
"We farmers want to eat some fruit, so we all know how to take good care of the fruit trees. On the contrary, you always think of cutting down the fruit trees to use as firewood, killing the chickens and extracting the eggs! The Chu family prides itself on being a scholarly family, and everyone prides themselves on it.
Scholars, have you forgotten that the Master said that if you want to study well, you must first learn to be a good person!"
"Uncle, you need to raise money. Sisters Jiaoer and Yaner are so beautiful, so the bride price must be very generous! Grandma, I can also get married as soon as possible and give the gift to uncle! I really want to help uncle sell a few more acres of land.
It can be solved easily! As for the second uncle, I won’t talk about how he was so honest that he was sold and helped count the money. If the fifth uncle really respects the uncle and gives Wu Lang to me, I promise to bring you thirty taels! They are all reduced to nothing.
It’s time to sell people. You only sold two smart nephews for twenty taels, and you’re not afraid of making people laugh to death if you tell me!”
"I know you are cursing me in your heart, saying that I am disrespectful and unfilial to my elders. It doesn't matter to me. Now let me put aside my harsh words. I will touch anyone who dares to touch my family. You'd better think about what happened to those three chickens.
Damn it! Xiaoliu and Xiaoqi are responsible for feeding the chickens every day. The eggs laid by the chickens are not shared by our third room, and in the end we can’t even eat a piece of chicken! Why don’t we kill them and keep them for the New Year!”
"If you don't believe in evil, just give it a try! I have died once, so there is nothing to be afraid of!"
Chu Congrong put down her harsh words and walked out. Behind her came Mrs. Du's high-pitched scolding: "This bitch is rebelling against heaven! How can there be such a granddaughter in the world! If I had known this, I shouldn't have saved her in the first place! Old man,
Find someone to sell her tomorrow! Otherwise, you will be hacked to death by her in your sleep one day without even knowing it..."
Mr. Lu looked at her with an evil look and thought to himself, you damn bitch, what are you talking about? When did you save Wu Ya? Even the medicine was bought on credit by Xiaoliu and Xiaoqi!
Just when Chu Congrong was fighting with the demons, there were playful smiles on many golden faces in a certain mansion in Baoshan County.
"Master, the old man you asked to check is from Zhiya Academy, Shan Changfang Yuan. He just happened to pass by on his way to Dong'an Academy for business." The man in black next to him reported respectfully.
Duo Jin hesitated and asked, "Has there been any change recently?"
"There is no traffic in the capital, and the people in the county are on standby, but they have not relaxed their surveillance of the palace at all. There is no abnormality in teahouses and restaurants, and business has not improved as before. There is a serious drought on the farm, and the summer grain harvest will definitely be lost. I am afraid it will not be possible. Less than 30%.”
The man in black thought for a while and said: "I have something that I don't understand. Miss Chu is obviously very smart, but she can't even handle the deed. She owes you a few hundred taels for nothing. Is she really not good at handling it or something else?" Do you have any intentions?"
"Xu Huan, don't be too nervous about some things. I guess the little girl just needs a creditor, and I am just the right person!" Duo Jin said with a playful smile.
Xu Huan, the man in black, shook his head, saying that he still didn't understand. Who would be so kind as to find hundreds of taels of debt to shoulder?
"You rush to Taiping Town overnight to see what Shen Tongwang does and teach him a lesson if necessary! If Chu Wuya is involved, don't be soft!"
Chapter completed!
