Chapter 88 The Distribution of Silver

At this time, Yuan Bao didn't know that a big pie was about to fall on his head.

Together with her family, she took the guests in the car to the door of her house, and then returned home with pork and other supplies and silver.

After learning that a basket of small ginseng was sold for 92 taels of silver, and one tael of silver was spent on pork, candies, New Year goods, etc., there were still 91 taels left. Miao was not angry at all. Together with Jin Zhong, they smiled like two Maitreya statues. Buddha.

"Now that we have bought all the pork, let's not be idle. Boss and daughter-in-law, you clean up the pork. Tonight we will make the sausages out overnight and a few more kilograms of bacon. We will have a full meal during the Chinese New Year." explain.

Mrs. Yu agreed with a smile, picked up the pork and hung it on the beam, and then took it down after dinner.

"Old lady, it's useless for us to hold these dozens of taels of silver. Let's divide it among the children." Jin Zhong said.

"Divided?" Mrs. Miao was stunned by her wife's words. Logically speaking, before the family is divided, all income must be handed over to the public house and distributed uniformly. Could it be that my wife meant that the family should be divided among the five sons?
Of course Jin Zhong didn't mean this: "When the children have finished the New Year and the spring has begun, they can't go back to their parents' homes with nothing. Anyway, so much money is enough for our family to wait until the end of the famine year."

How about sharing the ten taels of silver per room so that the children can have some money in their pockets.But the ginseng was found by Yuan Bao, and the score was 20 taels for the fourth couple. The remaining 31 taels are for emergency use. Do you have any objections? "

He asked his sons and daughters-in-law, everyone in the Jin family was shaking their heads like rattles, who dared to have an opinion.

The husband is the head of the family. When he speaks, Miao will not disobey, so she distributes the 60 taels of silver.

The daughters-in-law of the Jin family never dreamed that they would have a private treasury before the family was separated. They were so excited that they burst into tears and almost burst into tears on the spot.

After getting the money, the sons of the Jin family gradually made plans.

Before, the family was poor and could not afford any money, so they were willing to become villagers.

But now that I have money in my hands, it is naturally impossible to settle down.

Jin Da discussed with Mrs. Yu in private: "Daughter-in-law, I found that no salesmen have come to sell goods in eight villages in ten miles recently. I want to use these ten taels of silver to start a small business. Do you think it's okay?"

Mrs. Yu thought for a while, blushed and nodded: "You are my man, whatever you say will be what you say, I will listen to you." If Jin Da becomes a peddler and the business is good, he can earn some silver every year. She has no reason. be opposed to.

Jin Er and Zou had a simpler idea. They planned to save their money in case they would have money in the future.

Jin San is very enthusiastic and wants to start a small business like his elder brother.

But the baby with wilted chrysanthemums felt that these ten taels of silver were hot and unlucky.

But he couldn't bear to throw it away, so he chose to save the money temporarily like his second wife.

Jin Si and Xu Liudi got 20 taels of silver, and the couple discussed buying a set of replacement cushions for the carriage.

Save the rest and buy clothes and hair flowers for Yuan Bao.

Children grow up when the wind blows. The clothes I bought some time ago will outgrow them in two months and will need to be replaced by spring clothes.

Compared with the previous brothers and sisters-in-law's arrangements for money, Zheng and Jin Wu seemed to have a much longer-term vision.

"Father, mother, Laibao Xibao and their brothers, except Fubao and Yuanbao, the other six are all old.

I found out that the teacher from the book school in the next village was very poor, and he only accepted [-] Wen a month.
I want to use these ten taels of silver to educate these brothers.

If someone from our Jin family is admitted to the imperial examination, not only will the male members of the family be exempted from corvee service, but also the land tax will be reduced or exempted. "

Zheng said softly, and with one word she woke up the complacent Jin family members.
