Quick wear: She has turned over the big guys from all walks of life

Chapter 1117 Famine and Natural Disaster 277

No matter how you think about it, you may be upset.

She felt heavy in her heart and sighed heavily, "Twenty taels is just twenty taels. Apart from food and clothing, a family can save more than ten taels a month with no other expenses."

After arriving in the northwest, food and clothing all cost money. Fortunately, Mingyi and Mingli had the money they earned from hunting in the mountains to support them. Now that there is a soap business, food and clothing expenses have increased by more than one level.

As living conditions improve, more money is spent. In the past, when I had land in my hometown, I only needed to buy some necessities every month, and it cost less than 500 yuan.

Now I spend at least five taels of silver a month.

After thinking about it like this, Luo Cuihua felt distressed and headacheed again; when she had a large amount of money in her hand, she felt that she could spend it as long as it was necessary, and there would be nothing wrong with using it on her own family. As for after making some calculations, it is natural to save what you can.

There is no need to buy refined grains, coarse grains are also good; the frequency of meat consumption at home must be reduced. After spring, everyone can grow vegetables in their yards, and the vegetable money will gradually ease.

Luo Cuihua was calculating carefully in the room. Cheng Dazhu gathered the money and took out 500 taels alone. He called Lao San and his wife and handed them the banknotes. Cheng Yuanxi and Chen Daya were confused by what they did.

"Dad, why did you give me so much money?" Cheng Yuanxi didn't dare to accept it.

Most of the family's money is in the hands of the two elders, so it is considered to be in the middle of the family; it seems strange to suddenly give them a banknote of such a large denomination.

Chen Daya looked confused, "Dad, what are you doing?"

"It's not for you, it's for Mingyi." The banknote was stuffed into the third son's hand.

Cheng Yuanxi asked in confusion: "Didn't you bring Mingyi five hundred taels just now? You gave me another five hundred taels."

"Keep it in your hands. When Mingyi needs money, you can have more money. Also give Mingyi some extra pocket money on weekdays. She has different friends. It's okay if you don't have money." Cheng Dazhu said seriously.

Cheng Yuanxi and Chen Daya looked at each other.

Did you just give them so much money?

Cheng Dazhu saw their doubts and simply said: "You have a pair of children. Mingli doesn't need much money at the moment. You can just give them a little. The boys can't have too much money in their hands. The boys have to be poor to raise them." She is too delicate. A girl must be pampered, and she must not be short of money, and she must give her the best we can for food and clothing. "

After speaking, Cheng Dazhu sent them away.

Cheng Yuanxi and Chen Daya walked out of the yard and did not come back to their senses.

"Why did my father-in-law suddenly tell us this?" She was puzzled and couldn't find anyone to answer her question.

Isn't this the case for Cheng Yuanxi? He couldn't find anyone to answer his questions; he could only drag his wife to his yard, silent all the way.

After entering their yard, Chen Daya still didn't understand.

Cheng Yuanxi had some clues, "We'll just take the money if it's given to us. It's for our daughter anyway."

"But if dad gives it to you, can mom agree?" Chen Daya's eyes were solemn, "You know how much mom values ​​the things in her hands; back in my hometown, all needles, threads, and brains were put away, and they were disposable Giving us so much money always makes me feel uneasy."

"Don't be impatient."

Cheng Yuanxi pulled her into the bedroom, put the banknotes away, and then sat down with her at the table.

Chen Daya frowned, not knowing what to do for a moment.

It is not good to have too much money in your hands. The key to the problem is that the money came too suddenly; there was no sign at all. It was said that it was for my daughter, so I gave it 500 taels, and now I have put away another 500 taels. In the hands of their couple.

No matter how you think about it, it makes you uneasy.

"Don't think too much, dad won't harm us after all." Cheng Yuanxi also couldn't figure it out. No matter how big the expense is, it's okay to pay it when you really need it; what on earth is dad thinking? Could it be that he is just trying to raise his daughter to be a lady for everyone?

Chen Daya shook his head and frowned, "You said before that my father planned to use our family's Yiyi to take the family further; however, our family's Yiyi is so small and has to bear the burden of the entire family. How can that be done?" Zhou Prince Wang first revealed his intention, and Cheng Dazhu accurately grasped this intention; only then did he develop his heart, and wanted Mingyi to capture Prince Zhou.

"Let's take one step at a time."

Cheng Yuanxi couldn't say whether this could really happen.

If it fails, my daughter must have a way out, "I will intensify my study during this period."

"Okay." At present, only the family members were supportive.

With this belief, Chen Daya paid special attention to his family and the elderly couple in the following time.

Cheng Yuanxi, on the other hand, besides being busy with business matters, spent all his time reviewing books; the knowledge that he had almost forgotten in the past was remembered again after reviewing it once or twice, and he learned something new by reviewing it.

With a different understanding, the memory will be more reliable.

Aunt Zhao returned to the palace and went straight to Tao Yiyuan.

"Master, this slave is back."

Ming Yi was having dinner with Zhou Ting when Nanny Zhao walked into the house and took a look. She hurriedly said, "I have seen the prince, master."

The smile between Zhou Ting's brows faded a bit, "Where have you been?"

Aunt Zhao first looked at Mingyi and saw that Mingyi didn't stop her.

"Back to the Master, this servant went back to the Cheng family as ordered by the master and brought some things to the Cheng family."

"is it?"

Aunt Zhao respectfully said, "I dare not deceive you."

"Then get up." Zhou Ting gave Mingyi a piece of meat and said with a smile: "Yiyi, eat more. Let's go eat after eating."

Mingyi nodded and just said: "I asked Aunt Zhao to send some hand-made skin care products to my mother and the others, and I also left a set for the princess; why don't you send it to me later? Your Majesty, if you believe me, I can give it a try.”

"Okay." Zhou Ting agreed.

Aunt Rong, who was waiting for the meal, quietly handed over the dishes to Aunt Zhao, and then went to the inner room; she took out one bottle after another, without exquisite packaging or superfluous words, just the things. Leave it to us.

If you don't bow down, you have to retreat.

Mingyi spoke at this time, "Mother Zhao, come with me. If the princess is willing to use it, I can teach her how to use it. I can also teach her how to cleanse her face. It all depends on the princess's wishes."

"The servant understands."

Aunt Zhao followed Buwei and left.

Mingyi had eaten and drank enough, put down her chopsticks, and looked at Zhou Ting, who was eating food slowly.

"Shisheng, I need some flowers and plants."

"Spring has just begun, and there are few places with flowers and plants in the northwest. I ordered people to search for them. Are you using them to make rouge and gouache?" He also put down his chopsticks.

Mingyi hummed, "Yes, making rouge gouache requires the use of flower petals, plants, and Chinese medicinal materials. At present, the land under my name has just begun to grow food, and the flowers and plants are not available, so I can only find some from nearby places for use. "

"The number of flowers and plants needed to make rouge gouache is large. I have a large village in my name. It will be transferred to your name later. You can use it to plant whatever you want. I have already sent letters to the western and southern regions for flower seeds and seedlings." Bring back whatever you can with your caravan.”
