Chapter 127
Mrs. Jiang knew that her eldest son’s family had a good foundation, but she never thought that she could get so much at once. After saving all her life, she was already considered wealthy in Jiangwang Village, and she only had dozens of taels of silver in her hand. The 100 taels of betrothal gift from the family had already been begged by the second daughter-in-law crying and fussing, but she didn't keep one tael.

With so much silver in her hand all of a sudden, Mrs. Jiang was really at a loss. Seeing the silver was more intimate than anything else.

"Did you take out all the money in the family?" Jiang Fang covered his forehead. In front of Mrs. Jiang, he couldn't say that the Xia family was too sincere, but the 300 taels was already the whole family's wealth. If he really lost him Even Jiyue Qingfeng would feel distressed personally.

Xia Shi smiled lightly: "The silver is in A Niang's hands, so why don't you worry about it?"

Mrs. Jiang nodded hurriedly after hearing this, "That's right, can Auntie cheat you? You can rest assured that you put the money with Auntie. Tomorrow Auntie will go to inquire about the land price, and I guarantee that it will be exchanged for good land for you."

After finishing speaking, Mrs. Jiang was not in the mood to eat any more, and went back to the room with the money in her arms, afraid that Jiang Fang would ask for the money back if she walked too slowly.

300 taels of silver is not a small amount, and Mrs. Jiang is struggling to hug her, but her heart is full. At this time, in her heart, the eldest daughter-in-law is much more caring than the second daughter-in-law.

Jiang Fang couldn't eat anymore, so he asked his servants to remove all the food on the table, and the children went back separately, so he let Mrs. Xia follow him back to the house, and after closing the door, he watched Mrs. Xia hesitate to speak.

The Xia family didn't make a sound until Jiang Fang couldn't take it anymore and said: "If you give all the family's silver to A Niang, aren't you afraid that A Niang will give it to the second child's family?"

Xia smiled bitterly and said: "What if I don't give her the money? One day she will find it out, and the trouble will be ugly. Why don't I take it out by myself, and I can bet that A Niang is always in her heart. There is our room."

Jiang Fang sighed: "It's been hard for you these days, and my mother is indeed... well, but 300 taels is not a decimal, Xingjia is not young, if I have this money, I can tell him a good wife, if the money is gone, Will it be possible to sell the land when we say we are married?"

"You only think about Xingjia, and Yunniang is also my own daughter. You should listen to what my mother-in-law said about Yunniang today, right? As long as Yunniang can't be made a fool of her, the money will be gone. The family has been making trouble because of these money, I would rather not have this money."

The Xia family was also angry that Jiang Fang didn't let their mothers decide. He must have heard what Mrs. Jiang said. She took the children and left at that time just to give Jiang Fang a chance. If he really cared The children and her should make it clear to Mrs. Jiang.

Today is different from the past, Jiang Fang's words have some weight, as long as Jiang Fang is not in front of outsiders, Jiang Fang just reprimands Mrs. Jiang, and Mrs. Jiang will not be too relieved, and she will know how to restrain herself afterwards.

But who would have thought that Mrs. Jiang just shed two teardrops, and Jiang Fang didn't remember anything, as if everyone in the world gave him a sissy, really treated her as Zhang and the others who stayed at home. Is it a display?
And after Mrs. Jiang tested Jiang Fang's bottom line, she would talk bitterly at night. Xia Shi didn't know that she was committing an old problem again. better off.

Alas, who made her marry such a foolish and filial man? The change will not happen overnight. Since the family has money and cannot rest, let everyone act as if the family has no money.

However, she didn't want to make Jiang Fang feel too good today, even if she was forced to get a statement from Jiang Fang, "I also gave the money to Auntie, so don't think about it anymore, but this is also the last time Well, it’s okay if Aniang still thinks that our house belongs to Jiang’s family, but Ruoa Niang is still the same as before... I will take the children far away, my children can’t let people make such a fool.”

Jiang Fang nodded with some difficulty, "Don't worry, if Auntie is still the same this time, even if you don't tell me, I will protect Yunniang and the others."

He can understand Xia's complaints. In fact, he is also angry with himself for not living up to expectations, but he can't even think about getting the money back after taking it out. A little bit, Mrs. Jiang can grow up. At least a month ago, when A Niang first lived in the house, she was still so sincere to herself, and she also sincerely regretted hurting Jiang Yundong.

It's just that he didn't dare to expect too much for A Niang at this time, if the money really disappeared...he didn't dare to think about whether he would collapse due to extreme disappointment.

Early the next morning, Mrs. Jiang had breakfast, said hello to Jiang Fang and Xia Shi, and went out. Jiang Fang was afraid that it would be unsafe for her to carry money alone, so she also wanted to find someone to watch her, so she asked her to do things. The most stable Mrs. Zhang followed Mrs. Jiang to wait on her.

Mrs. Jiang curled her lips and said, "You still can't trust Auntie."

Jiang Fang explained with a smile, "Aniang, are you overthinking again? I'm just afraid that you will be tired, so it's better to bring someone by my side to wait on you."

Mrs. Zhang also smiled, "Old lady, look at how filial you are as the elder of our family. I am afraid that you will be alone outside and no one will wait for you, so let the servants follow you. Look at the baskets brought by the servants. There are food and drinks Yes, it will never make you thirsty or hungry."

Mrs. Jiang felt much more at ease. She carried the left and right money, and without Zhang's hands, could she be the master of the master's house by herself?

Moreover, with a waiter by your side, it is a matter of face wherever you go, and you can brag when you meet old sisters when you were young.

After seeing Mrs. Jiang away, the whole family fell into depression. Jiang Fang was afraid that she would relapse into her old troubles, and the good life she had managed to live would come to an end. Look at the drought in the fields.

The Xia family is very contradictory. They are afraid that Mrs. Jiang will take the money, but also hope that Mrs. Jiang will take the money. Then the family will no longer have to look at her face.

Jiang Yunniang and Jiang Yunqian should do what to do, as if the money is just a few pennies, if it is gone, it will be gone, and they don't feel bad.

Only Jiang Yundong kept biting his lips, couldn't help it and said: "It's all my fault, what about buying land, this time it's fine, the money is taken away by Grandma, how will I live in the future."

In Jiang Yundong's heart, he always knew that once the silver was in Grandma's hands, it would no longer belong to their family, and it was the same this time. Grandma rolled up the silver and would definitely give it to the second uncle when she turned around.

Xia Shi laughed and said, "How could it be Dongya's fault? Even if you don't mention the matter of buying the land, sooner or later, your grandma will have to scoop up all the money, and if she really scoops it up, it's not just 300 taels." , our family really can’t even afford to eat. Now your mother only thinks that our family only has 300 taels, and you won’t make any other ideas. My mother is also worried about how to let your grandma get the money and stop making trouble , your idea of ​​buying land is the best, and Auntie will even praise you."

Jiang Yundong's eyes lit up when he heard this, "Is what A Niang said true?"

Mrs. Xia nodded, and Jiang Yunqian continued: "Aniang said exactly what she said. It would be best if Grandma took the money and refused to come back, but Dongya's idea is also reasonable. Now that the drought is severe, it is the right place to buy the land." Now, it’s time for us to think about buying some land.”

"Second Sister is right, but we can't let Dad know about our land purchase, otherwise the 300 taels of silver will be taken away by Grandma."

After hearing Jiang Yunniang's words, the Xia family also thought it was reasonable, but if Jiang Fang didn't know about the land purchase, their mothers could not come forward, and even Xu Fan couldn't be used. This candidate had to be carefully considered.

Mrs. Jiang has money on her body, and her back is straighter than ever before. She also really wants to do things beautifully for Jiang Fang. After living for fifty years, Mrs. Jiang naturally knows that every time a disaster occurs, she will sell her house and land. There will be more people, and it is much cheaper than usual to buy fields and land at this time.

It's just that if there are successive years of disasters, the harvest in the fields has been bad, and taxes can crush people to death, but my son is different. Although a scholar has no power to speak out, Da Zhou's laws have words and fame. It can be exempted from taxes, that is, no matter how much land the family buys, as long as they do not have to pay taxes, they are not afraid that they will become a burden due to too many fields.

Mrs. Jiang was not in a hurry to buy fields. She asked people everywhere, where there were good fields for sale, and she was careful to shop around when buying vegetables. How could she buy more and better fields with 300 taels of silver? You have to think carefully.

After wandering around the town all day, Mrs. Jiang heard a lot of news, but she never made a decision on which one to buy. Mrs. Zhang followed behind without saying a word. She is not the only servant of the master. able to participate.

It's good to be respectful when Mrs. Jiang meets acquaintances, which satisfies Mrs. Jiang's vanity. When Mrs. Zhang realizes that there is no one, Mrs. Jiang looks at her with a lot more kindness.

When she got home at night, Mrs. Jiang put the three hundred silver bills on her chest and patted them again and again, for fear that the silver would fly away when she woke up.

Mrs. Zhang talked to Mrs. Xia about who Mrs. Jiang had met and what she had asked that day. Mrs. Xia couldn't tell what Mrs. Jiang was thinking, but she seemed to really want to buy a field for her family, so she relaxed a little. With a sigh of relief, 300 taels of silver is not a decimal, and she feels distressed if she really loses it.

If Mrs. Jiang is wholeheartedly for the family, Xia Shi is also willing to expose the past and honor her mother-in-law well in the future. Even if this mother-in-law loves to pick things up when she has nothing to do, she can bear it.

The next day, Mrs. Jiang went out after dinner early in the morning, still following Mrs. Zhang. This time, Mrs. Jiang not only went to the town, but also hired a carriage to visit the villages around the town. There is land for sale, and the price has been discussed with others.

Mrs. Zhang realized that as long as she wasn't messing around, Mrs. Jiang was still doing things in a disciplined manner. After thinking about it, she was relieved. The old lady was not a weak person to raise her children by herself.

It's just that Mrs. Jiang was not in a hurry to buy the land after asking the price, but returned to the town in a carriage. Just when Mrs. Zhang thought she was going back to Liujiayu, Mrs. Jiang took her back to Jiangwang Village.

Mrs. Zhang's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that these two days are all a cover, and Mrs. Jiang still wants to give the money to her second son?
But when she came, Mrs. Xia also said that no matter what Mrs. Jiang wanted to do, Mrs. Zhang didn't care, as long as she wrote down her words and deeds.

Mrs. Zhang kept that in mind, and just followed Mrs. Jiang without saying a word.
