Chapter 11
"Let me ask you again, the three men in your eldest room are studying, do you think they will be prosperous together? If my parents hadn't knelt at the door of your eldest room for three days and three nights, when the uncle was enlightening the two cousins He refuses to take my second brother with him! After the enlightenment, the uncle no longer cares about him, as if he had done his duty, and my parents worked hard for the family, in exchange for this little glory? The folks said, this is fair ?"

After hearing this, the villagers also nodded.

"My father and mother's death, I will not say anything anymore, but, in the future, our third bedroom will not be honored if we say no! Let me tell you, our third bedroom does not owe your first wife. According to these years, after the third bedroom got married, every Pay ten taels of silver to the family every month, 120 taels a year, plus festivals, ice respect, charcoal respect... the minimum is 60 taels a year, and 20 taels in 600 years."

Ye Qiongdan said again: "The silver provided to the second elder is two taels per month. In 20 years, it is 480 taels in total. If you subtract 600 taels from 480 taels, your first house is equivalent to taking 120 taels from our third house, but you don't even have food. We didn’t let Sanfang eat enough, we didn’t let Sanfang wear warm clothes, we don’t owe Dafang! Dafang owes us!”

When the villagers heard it, there was another uproar.

"Three thousand and one hundred taels in 20 years? Isn't that too exaggerated? Why not grab it? If Sanfang can earn three thousand and one hundred taels in 100 years, will they be exhausted?"

"Why not? The boss of the Ye family spends at least 30 taels of silver a month in the town to sleep in flowers, sleep in willows, eat, drink, whore and gamble! This year it is several hundred taels of silver. The best Jingde School in the town charges 100 taels a year. You have to pay 20 taels of silver for tuition fees and living expenses, plus rituals, ice respect, charcoal respect... and comparing and socializing with rich students, do you think you don’t need money? How about comparing and communicating with each other!"

"That's right, now Dafang's two grandsons are also studying. Although they haven't learned how to sleep in flowers, sleep in willows, eat, drink, whore and gamble, these high-quality pens, inks, papers and inkstones also need money. Otherwise, can they hold their heads up in the school?"

……

The eldest daughter-in-law was left speechless.

Ye Qiongdan said in a cold voice: "From now on, we will only pay two taels of silver to the second elder every month. If your first wife wants to take money from our third wife, it is just a daydream!"

The daughter-in-law of the second room also said: "Yes! In the future, it is only a daydream that your eldest wife wants to get money from our second room! The third room has paid 20 taels of silver for 100 years, and our second room has paid you money for 25 years. The money handed over to the second elder is a total of 960 taels of silver, and your first wife owes us even more! Our second wife has never been honored by you, so pay back the money quickly!"

The daughter-in-law of the second room thought to herself, if she could get 900 taels of silver from the big house, would she still worry that the three daughters would not be able to marry a good family?

Such a generous dowry is more than enough to marry a talented man from a neighboring village!

The two quarreled, but Ye Qiongdan left.

Dafang never made money, and it was impossible to get back 3000 taels of silver from Dafang, so she didn't bother about it.

Half an hour later, the quarrel ended with the eldest daughter-in-law being stunned.

That night, the old man went to the neighboring village on business, and the old lady lost her temper because of the fact that the two houses would not pay the big house.

Helplessly, Ye Qiongdan and the second daughter-in-law had made up their minds, they were both expressionless, and pissed her off again.

The old lady wanted to hit Ye Qiongdan with a cane again, but her waist was broken early this morning, so there was nothing she could do about it.

That night, the eldest daughter-in-law and the old lady scolded each other for most of the night before going to bed, which disturbed the whole room and they couldn't sleep well.

Ye Qingyu tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, only felt that it was getting more and more difficult to find food in this family.

Early the next morning, the cock crowed again, and Ye Qiongdan, who was practicing luck, opened his eyes.

The countryside at Yinshiji was very quiet. After going out the door, the sky was sprinkled with dazzling starlight. She passed through the leaves of the morning glory and walked to the kitchen with morning dew.

After practicing in the middle of the night, her internal injuries were partially healed, and her five senses became stronger.
