Chapter 393 Extra story
Chapter 393 Extra - Niu Changshui
Niu Changshui, who lost another five hundred coins, returned to the village from the gambling house in Qiaotou Town with his head hanging down, hungry and lame.
What bad luck!
Lost five games in a row!
After much difficulty, I lost the five taels of silver I had just obtained from my aunt!
Next time he must go to Qingxian County to play, because the gambling houses in Qiaotou Town are not popular for him!
It's not that he doesn't want to make money. The best place to work in Qingxian County is the ceramic tile shop.
It is said that the steward who has worked the longest can earn more than ten taels of silver a month.
Every one of the dozen or so houses that have entered the Tile Factory in the downstream village has now built a house with blue bricks and large tiles. Who wouldn’t be dissatisfied?
It's a pity that after so many years, no matter how much money and connections he used, he couldn't get in.
It's really a dog's eyes that look down upon others.
He can't do the hard work. He needs to be a craftsman but not a craftsman. He is suitable for a man who uses his brain. Why is there no one who has the eye to recognize talents?
Today, the family's biggest income comes from the more than 20 acres of paddy fields purchased by my aunt the year she returned to the village.
Before corn, potatoes, sweet potatoes and other coarse grains were cultivated in large quantities in Shu, selling most of the rice his family grew in a year was barely enough to feed their family.
Unfortunately, high-yield coarse grains have disrupted grain prices, and the price of rice in Shu is 50% cheaper than before.
When he got married, his mother-in-law was so angry that his aunt had to sell several acres of land to get the bride price.
After the mother-in-law got married, two children were born soon after, leaving her with nothing to do. The betrothal gift she received from Niu Xier, a girl who married far away, was not enough to last several years.
Don't think he doesn't know, people in the village say behind his back that the in-law he found for his girl is not good.
A sharp-tongued woman!
Didn't we say in the past that older men will love others?
His brother-in-law is only ten years older than him!
At home, there is a rice shop in the county town.
Isn't it better to marry your sister to such a brother-in-law than to marry a mud-legged guy from the village?
My stepson and stepdaughter are already five or six years old. They don’t have to pee their shit to get promoted to mothers. What’s wrong with that? There’s eighty taels of betrothal gift!
Isn't that enough to show how much the brother-in-law values his sister?
The lame right leg was caused when he was sixteen years old, he had a fierce fight with others and was beaten by a group of people and the knee bone was broken.
At that time, there was no extra money at home, so the best time to treat him was delayed.
Every time it was windy or rainy, the bones in his right leg would ache. Starting that year, he really suffered every year.
It was also because he was lame and couldn't marry a wife from a good family.
What a bad luck, marrying such a shrew who can't get married.
She was not at all as gentle and petty as the beautiful widow in the town. If he hadn't had no money in his pocket, he would have divorced the shrew and returned to her parents' home.
The reason why his neighbors in the same village scolded him for being unfilial was because of this bitch!
He knew it would ruin the family tradition of their Niu family.
Villager: Even if you have all your hands and feet, no one cares about you as a son-in-law. What is your family tradition and you don’t have any AC in your heart?
If you ask him if he is grateful to his aunt, he cannot deny this. No matter how bad the world treats him, his aunt will always be worthy of him.
But he doesn’t understand!
My aunt would rather follow him who is almost out of food than enjoy the blessings of his son who is an official.
Does it really hurt? Or do you really hurt him? !
That's the Jinshi master!
With the support of the Marquis of Zhongqin, how could that kid still be able to rise to prominence?
Within ten years, becoming the prefect of a state will definitely be a piece of cake.
Thinking of this, Niu Changshui let out a heavy breath.
It's just that I was young and ignorant back then, and my life as a good young master of the Hu family was not good enough, but I have fallen into the position where people hate me today.
If he could turn back time, he would really be a good nephew
