Before Xu Mingxu and Tu Hao got married, the power of the Xu family fell into the hands of Xu Mingjie's daughter-in-law Huang.

It turned out that although the old lady of the Xu family disliked her daughter-in-law, Liu Shi, and took charge of the housework for a period of time, but she was getting older in the past two years, and she was a little powerless, and finally handed things over to Liu Shi little by little.

But the old lady of the Xu family lacks energy, and her heart is clear.Mrs. Huang is the daughter-in-law she found for her grandson. Although her family background is not high, she is still a lady of the official family. She is a bit higher than Mrs. Liu.She took Mrs. Huang by her side and taught her hand in hand, but she did not teach a second Mrs. Liu.

On this day, Huang and Xu Mingjie took Xu Mingxu to a courtyard: "This courtyard is not comparable to my brother's Xiyuan, but it is still fairly neat. I found a craftsman to draw a picture, brother, take a look, and we can change it again? "

Xiyuan occupies nearly one-third of the entire Xu mansion. Except for the place where the old man and the old lady of the Xu family live, there is no place bigger than Xiyuan.

The yard in front of me is on the east side of the entire house, just to the left of the yard where Xu Mingjie and his wife now live. The layout is similar, only slightly smaller than Xu Mingjie's.Compared with the yard arranged by Mrs. Liu, it is obviously better than 01:30.

Xu Mingxu accepted after a few refusals: "Thank you brother and sister-in-law for your concern, the house is just like this, there is no need to do big construction work."

Seeing that he was satisfied, Mrs. Huang breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile, "We are all one family, so don't let the younger brother see outsiders. This change is not a big project." Perhaps the most promising member of the Xu family in the future will be this Seventh brother, no matter what kind of concubines are in the officialdom, my husband may not be able to get some glory in the future, "Grandma said, she and grandpa will move to Xiyuan to live temporarily in the future, and then the main house will be rebuilt, and then the east side will be rebuilt. Follow along here and fix it."

One is that Xu's house is indeed old; the other is that the number of people in the family has increased, so it really needs to be rearranged.

Ever since a group of juniors from the Ye family built a wedding house community, it was like stabbing an ant's nest. Many families in the capital bought land and built houses, and some like the Xu family planned to rebuild their houses.

Xu Mingxu was not surprised. After thinking for a while, he suppressed the doubts in his heart. He turned back to Xiyuan, opened the warehouse, took a small box from the shelf, and went directly to the main house with it.

The old lady of the Xu family just woke up from a nap, and she was very happy to see her grandson: "Qilang, come and sit with grandma. You are going to get married in two days. The Tu family is a good family, you have to treat them well."

When Xu Mingxu heard others praise Tu Hao, he smiled subconsciously: "I know, grandma." He casually put the small box on the table, and pushed it in front of the old lady, "Here you are."

"What good thing is this? Don't you keep it for your little mouse?" The old lady joked with a smile. Looking at the size of the box, she thought it contained some women's household items such as bracelets and hairpins.She knew that there were some rewards given by the palace in the past, and the grandson's marriage partner was a man, so these things were not needed.There is a married girl in the Tu family, but it is obviously very inappropriate for Xu Mingxu to give jewelry to the married girl of the Tu family.

She opened the box and saw a golden light, "This is?"

"This is 100 taels of gold." Xu Mingxu closed the box for the old lady, "I heard that my sister-in-law said that the house is going to be repaired at home, and my grandson has a little savings here, so it can be considered a small contribution."

The old lady became unhappy immediately, and wanted to push the box back: "How can I ask for your money at home?"

In terms of strength, ten old ladies together can't compare to Xu Mingxu's one arm.He just put his hand on the box, remained motionless, and said, "Why can't the family ask for my money? The grandson shouldn't be saving a private house, it should be given to the public."

Previously, the old lady probably felt that she owed him something. Not only did she not need him to remit her income to the public, but she also supported him to build a private house openly and secretly.In the early days, he spent a lot of money growing cotton and building pig houses.Now that he has money, he didn't think about it for a while, but fortunately he remembered it now.

The current Xu family's obvious income is his grandfather's salary, in addition to the annual rewards from the palace, and the other part is some rents and shops in the family.Although the income is not cheap, the expenses are even greater.

Especially now that the population of Xu's family is increasing, there is almost no production.For example, Xu Mingjie and the others can be regarded as married and established businesses, but they are used to living a luxurious life. With their current income, they have problems supporting themselves.

If it is to maintain daily expenses, it is not a big problem.But for such a large-scale construction project, I am afraid that it will have to pay for itself.

After pushing each other for a while, the old lady still insisted on not accepting it: "If you have money at home, you can keep it for yourself. Although the Tu family is rich, you are not married. There will be many places to spend money in the future."

No wonder the old lady was so worried.Among the brothers, Xu Mingxu is better at making money than others, and he also became a scholar earlier.But no matter what, Xu Mingxu is just a small official who only became a sixth rank this year.

The old lady also followed Mr. Xu all the way from a small official, knowing that the official position at this time is not big, and the expenses are not small.Xu Mingxu was able to save the money, which was beyond the old lady's expectation. If she took money from her grandson, would she still be ashamed?

The old lady thought about it, but she was worried, and told her, "Qilang, let's be good officials. We can't accept ill-gotten gains." At least not at this time.Grandson's future is still bright, and today he is paying close attention to this aspect, and he can't cut off his official career for a little money.

Now that Xu Mingxu has taken it out, he doesn't plan to take it back: "This is not ill-gotten wealth, this is earned by my grandson seriously. You take it. I still have some for myself. If you don't accept it, you just don't want it." If you treat me as your own, your grandson will not be able to get married with peace of mind. How about you make my yard look better for me?"

It was not appropriate for the old lady to think, but Xu Mingxu couldn't hold back and ran away.When the old man of the Xu family came back, she said, "Look at this..."

The old man of the Xu family looked at the box of gold and sighed: "If Qilang gives it to you, just keep it, and treat it as we keep it for him."

"Okay." In fact, there are a lot of places to spend money in the family during this time, and it is not enough to make ends meet, but it is indeed not as rich as before.

The old man of Xu's family knew better than the old lady about Xu Mingxu's ability. This grandson has been honored by the Tu family, so at least he knows how to manage private property.Unlike the old lady who thought that 100 taels of gold was Xu Mingxu's wife's net worth, he felt that Xu Mingxu should have about a hundred taels of gold, but it should not be cash.

He would not want to count the money of the younger generation, but he is very pleased that the younger generation can understand filial piety: "I'm already at this age, I'm afraid I won't be an official for a few years. I was worried that the big family members in the future would be poor." What should I do, I don’t worry so much now.”

He used to worry that because of his childhood experience, Xu Mingxu was dissatisfied with this family.In the later getting along, he did see some alienation.But looking at it now, I'm afraid it's just that Xu Mingxu is not good at expressing, and his heart is still toward this family.After all, he couldn't write two Xu characters in one stroke, so Xu Mingxu's heart was still very good.

As for Xu Mingxu, he didn't do this because of his xinxing problem at all, but he just spent money to buy a clean.

In Tu Hao's words, problems that can be solved with money are not problems at all.

For him, 100 taels of gold is definitely not his entire net worth, and of course it will not be a drop in the bucket.Just paying the money will not affect his life at all, let alone affect his marriage.

The Xu family wanted to build a house on such a large scale, and the news must not be hidden from others.Even if the Liu family is seized power, after all, she is still the mistress of the Xu family on the surface.The money he earned by himself has never been included in the public, which is Liu's heart disease.Not sure... No, she will definitely talk about this matter.He might as well put things ahead.

Three days later, the wedding took place as usual.

The wedding of two men is not like a girl's family with a lot of dowry.

Many people in the capital still remember Tu Ying's marriage.The long dowry line was endless at a glance.Flowers, all kinds of pastries and candies wrapped in red paper, and small red envelopes containing as little as one penny and as many as ten pennies were scattered all over the place.

The people in the capital originally wanted to experience such a grand occasion, but after the lack of dowry teams, they felt that the ostentation was much smaller.

Lively is really lively.

There was no bride, and there was no need to lift the sedan chair, so Tu Hao had someone tie up a few floats and let the cows pull them away.He and Xu Mingxu sat on the float in the middle. There were musicians playing music on the front and rear floats, and there were lovely maids and servants, holding baskets and throwing out all kinds of wedding candies, cakes and small red envelopes.

The money in the little red envelope is no different from that of Tu Ying, and the overall amount is not too much, just for celebration.

On both sides of the street, the people have been waiting early.Seeing them come over, they took the things they had prepared in their hands and threw them into the car.

The bullock carts move slowly, and the common people are sure to throw one.A man chased after him holding his little baby who was less than two years old, and ordered the little baby to throw a bunch of grapes on Tu Hao: "Thank you, Mr. Tu!"

The ripe grapes had an air crash during the flight. Unfortunately, many passengers fell freely because they did not fasten their seat belts. They were about to show Tu Hao some color.

At this time, Xu Mingxu used the hand speed he practiced in daily throwing stone locks, rescued a whole bunch of grapes, and peeled a grain for Tu Hao: "Do you want to eat?"

Tu Hao stuttered, and said to the somewhat reckless man with a smile, "Throw it more accurately next time!" I don't know how such a big baby can throw a bunch of grapes.

The man was originally worried that Tu Hao would be angry, but he was relieved to see him like this: "It must be."

Growing grapes and making wine, these two can be regarded as relatively well-known businesses in the small village of Tujia.

Xu Mingxu also participated.In fact, like this kind of grapes that taste good, he promotes them more.

Nowadays, in the capital city, especially in the Gyeonggi area, many farmers will plant several grape racks in their homes.

The purchase price given by Tu Hao is not high, not because he wants to extort money from the people, but because of the large amount of white sugar that needs to be added to wine making, the cost will not be reduced for a while.

But for the common people, this extra income can completely make their hands more comfortable; there is no worrying thing about using the cultivated land to grow grapes.

The ox cart team circled around the capital slowly.Tu Hao and Xu Mingxu collected several fruits, fresh flowers, silk flowers, handkerchiefs, nets, etc. from the ox cart.

Tu Hao looked at Xu Mingxu triumphantly: "I'm smart, right? Riding an ox cart saves a lot of energy than riding a horse!"

Xu Mingxu asked him with a smile: "I don't know who wrote letters every day saying that I need to move more?"

Move more?Combined with the current scene, Tu Mouse thought about it in an instant, and changed his sitting position uneasily.

Xu Mingxu thought his legs were numb: "Legs are numb? Do you want my brother to rub it for you?"

"Ah? No." Tu Mouse suddenly faltered.He had an unspeakable question, and he couldn't even say it for a while.

The author has something to say:

Grape General Headquarters (Θ皮Θメ): The moment of life and death for our army has arrived!

Grape No. [-] (Θ皮Θメ): I'll go!

Grape [-] (Θ皮Θメ): I will sacrifice my life for righteousness!

Grape Headquarters (ΘェΘ): Two grapes are enough to feed that horrible mouse.

Grape No. [-] (Θ皮Θメ): Always be ready!

Grape Headquarters (ΘェΘ): No need to prepare, that mouse has been on a diet recently.
