Chapter 201
It just so happens that seniors and young are in order, and that San Lang's marriage will be handled first, and then the younger sister's. Shi is very satisfied with this arrangement.

It's just that after she finished speaking, even Li's sister-in-law, Li's sister-in-law, who had vaguely known something beforehand, was very surprised.

Relying on being the eldest daughter-in-law and having a good relationship with her mother-in-law, Mrs. Li asked first: "Mother, why does the third child want to get married?"

Could it be that he looked down on Qingqing when he was in high school, and wanted to marry a young lady with a better family background in the capital?
"The last marriage between Sanlang and Qingqing was done too hastily, and Sanlang also felt that he had wronged his wife, so he planned to make a big one."

I didn't see that their San Langzhong champion didn't have a special wine for such a big event, they just wanted to gather together the happy event and simply hold a big one.

Shi took a look at the eldest daughter-in-law and the second daughter-in-law, and then said: "The life of the family was difficult before, and the marriage of the eldest and the second was easy. I know I have wronged you."

In a word, it touched the heart of Mrs. Li's sister-in-law and Mrs. Li's second sister-in-law.

When they got married, they really didn't have anything, not to mention anything big, the third child gave the Fang family eight taels of silver as a dowry when they got married, which made the two sisters-in-law feel uneasy for a long time.

But women, sometimes it's as simple as that, and it doesn't necessarily mean that they are greedy for external material enjoyment.

The mother-in-law's words immediately made the two daughters-in-law feel much better.

"The youngest is finally looking good in his studies. Now that he has survived, he will not forget that it is time for him to repay you.

It's the third child's own wish to make a big deal, but don't worry, the old woman will try her best to arrange the marriages of the big, the second, the third, the fourth, and Niuniu in the future. "

Now, sister-in-law Li is completely relieved.

This is a great thing. Isn't it just for men and children that they have worked hard all their lives?
That's the way men are, whether they can honor their ancestors in the future, the two sisters-in-law are now counting on their children.

So Mrs. Li's sister-in-law Li's second sister-in-law said again and again that everything should be done, and everything should be according to mother's arrangement.

Basically, these are all decided by the old woman. She is in charge of the trivial matters at home, and only the big ones will be decided by old man Li.

But, the life of the family, basically, there are not many major matters that need to be judged by the parents.

So most of the time, old man Li is very leisurely at home if he doesn't work in the fields or go out to do carpentry.

Having eaten, drunk and slept well again, he intentionally walked around the yard and asked the third daughter-in-law about the rent of the yard in detail.

"Paying so much money to the landlord every month is still quite a loss. If I buy it, I don't know how much silver taels will be needed."

Fang Qingqing nodded, did not speak, but turned to look at her mother-in-law.

Shi Shi glanced at the big guy, and then said: "Yes, there is one more thing to say, which is about this courtyard.

At the beginning, Qingqing accompanied Saburo to Beijing for the exam, and she didn't know what would happen in the future, so she rented a yard to live in first.

Now that Sanlang is an official, although the imperial court distributed him an official house, we have also seen that the courtyard is too small for him to live alone.

In the future, our big family will not be able to squeeze into the official house, so we must still have a house.

Your father is right, the rent is too expensive, it is better to buy, Qingqing asked the landlord.

For the sake of the third child, the landlord is willing to give in and give us an integer of 500 taels.

As long as we pay 500 taels of silver, we can buy this yard. "

After Shi Shi finished speaking, everyone in the room fell silent and stopped talking.

In the beginning, it was also Li Dalang, Sister-in-Law Li and the others who heard from their son that the rent of this yard would cost 45 taels of silver for a year.

It is equivalent to staying for one year, giving 45 taels of silver to others, and then the house will still belong to others.

They all felt that it was too much of a loss, so they muttered a few words in front of Old Man Li.

As a result, everyone was stunned when they heard Shi Shi's words now.

I remember that they only spent 65 taels to buy a house in the county. This yard is even smaller, and it costs 500 taels?
In fact, even Lao Li's family didn't realize that they had fundamentally changed from before.

Only, 45 taels, they would never say such things in the past.

Even if they are considered rich in Hongqiao Village, they can save a few taels of silver a year. Before Fang Qingqing came in, the family did not expect such a thing as being able to live in the capital.

But now...

After waiting for everyone to understand what she said, Shi continued with a smile: "Don't worry, Qingqing has rented this yard for a year, and we can live in it for now. After a year, I don't believe we can't afford it."

Even the Shi family has made plans, the family will continue to do food business at home, and if they can't afford a shop first, it's a big deal to start with a stall.

Slowly accumulate, money is always earned back by people.

Seeing that the old man's face|color|look|look was not very good-looking, Shi Shi asked intentionally:

"My son's father, you should have known about Sanlang High School before you came to Beijing. How is the situation at home?"

Speaking of this, old man Li has a lot to say.

In other words, they also thought that Sanlang should be able to pass the exam after entering Beijing. According to what they learned before, the first person who passed the exam would be the Gongshi.

Then take part in the palace examination, at least find a Jinshi, even if you are from the same Jinshi background, you can go to seek an official.

It's good to start as a local official. Saburo once said that no matter what you do, you just need to keep your heart and think about doing more things for the people.

But they didn't expect that after Shi Shi and the others set off, one day the person who announced the good news from the county government came to the door.

This time, not to mention their Hongqiao Village, even the entire Anshun County was a sensation.

For example, Mr. Liang was very proud of his foresight. He didn't expect that Mr. Li's young man was really capable, and he directly won the first prize.

Because of this, the Liang family was very talkative and offered to postpone the wedding.

They were also the ones who suggested that Li Xiaomei should go to Beijing with her. Mrs. Liang had a clever plan.

Although the relationship between brothers and sisters will not be very good if they are far apart, Li Xiaomei went to the capital to meet her brother and sister-in-law to congratulate her, and she can also take advantage of her sister-in-law's blessing to accompany Junjie to Beijing for the exam.

That's right, since knowing that Li Xiuping won the first prize, Liang Junjie's chances of winning have increased.

After all, he has Li Zhuangyuan's note-taking experience here, and he has personally taught it for many days.

These are all things to say, indeed, the matter of Li Xiuping's No. [-] Scholar has been lively in Hongqiao Village for many days.

The head of the Li clan was so excited that he burst into tears at a very young age. He immediately found someone to open a ancestral hall to worship the ancestors, and asked the village scholar to record this event in the genealogy.

And their Li clan's ethnology, no, it should be said that the Hongqiao Academy is also flourishing.
