Three taels of silver, although this amount of money is still a lot of money in today's family, it is a dazzling income, but for the Qi family, the more important meaning here is that this is their own child. Earning their own knowledge is completely their own ability, which is different from those shells and scallops that anyone can pick up. Literacy and writing are things that children have learned in their stomachs, so they don’t have to worry about it for a lifetime The ability to be robbed.So for the Qi family, these three taels of silver are really as important as the future of their own children.

Not to mention that there is a deeper meaning to it. It's only been one day, and these two children have earned so much. Listen to what they told her at the moment, just keep writing and selling. Without too much capital, they can earn so much in one day. Although there is such a special reason as the Chinese New Year, it still makes her feel emotional. Reading and literacy are really good and cannot be better It's okay, judging from the fact that my children can earn so much money after studying for a short time, it's no wonder those old men are so rich, this is the wealth brought by knowledge.

Of course, it's a little unreliable for her to have such an understanding, but she is just a country woman who has hardly even been to the county seat, so what kind of insight can she have? If she knows that reading is good, she is already a person with a bit of foresight. Others I really can't count on it. In fact, this is a common phenomenon in this society. The wealthy class and the elite class in this era can all read and write. , this can never be wrong.

It is precisely because of this that Qi's heart has secretly made up his mind at this moment.As long as the family is not unable to eat or something, she will definitely support 1 of the children in the family to study, no matter which one is the same, as long as they can read and write, then these children will not have to leave them anymore My father's old way, I have suffered all my life without a head.

Of course, the money itself is also very pleasing, Qi happily put the three taels of silver into his small money saving jar, shook it gently twice, then turned to Brother Jia Huan and said:

"It's great now. We have 15 taels of silver in our family. We can build the house after the spring, and we can still save money for the house. By the way, your uncle said about the house, so follow the instructions." The village chief’s house was built like that, with three tile-roofed houses in the main room, the middle one as the main room, I lived with Yu Niang on the left, the one on the right was used as the wedding room for Brother Xing, and two tile-roofed houses were built on the left side, where the second son and the third son lived. One room for each person, and two rooms on the right side. It’s just that it’s cheaper to build a house with a seagrass roof, one as a kitchen, and one as a utility room. Then the backyard is tidied up and vegetables are no longer grown. The land is thin. No matter how you clean it up, it’s useless. It takes twelve cents of effort, but it’s only one or two cents of the harvest. It’s really not worthwhile. That is, our family was really bad in the past, so we pointed to that place to mix up some food. Now there are If you have money, we will build a cattle shed. If you have money, you can raise a mule for driving. When you go to the county town or something, you can’t always trouble the village chief. Even if you have no money, you can catch two mules anyway. The piglets are here to be raised, and seaweed can be used to feed them, and they can be sold for money, and the fences should be repaired. In this way, the materials, wood, stone, tiles, etc. will cost seven dollars. With eight taels of silver, you don’t have to worry about manpower. In the village, your uncle’s family can come to help, and the rest of the ten taels of money can be used to buy some food for two meals a day, and it can still last until the house is completed.”

To live in this cave for the winter this year, Qi's heart has been sore. She always felt that since her husband left, she was really incompetent, which made the family more and more difficult, and made the children suffer a lot. I really feel sorry for the dead husband, and also for the child. After all, the family had a turning point. Naturally, the matter of this house was more important than the sky. It was just that she had money, and she was a woman. Er still doesn't have any big ideas. For her, there are only people who can be discussed, except for the children and other juniors, there are only brothers from her natal family, and the brother-in-law of the little girl's family, and her natal family always lives On the other side of the mountain, it was said that the ones who were close to each other had to rely on her brother-in-law's family, so she simply asked her sister-in-law to make up her mind.

Coincidentally, Mrs. Jia was also thinking about her natal nephews. Originally, because her family was not well-off, she really couldn't think of anything else except to help with food. Now it's better, not only It was the nephews who had the money to repair the house, and even their own family got a lot of money because of the nephews. This made Jia's efforts to re-establish the natal house and have more Thinking, more calculations.

To put it bluntly, her natal family is well, and she has face, right? Even in the village, she can speak loudly, not to mention, obviously, a woman like her who doesn't understand anything can feel that her nephews , are obviously not ordinary people, each of them looks promising in the future, just look at the matter of helping their own family earn money this time, they all have flexible brains, and the way to earn money comes out as soon as they think about it, With such ability, people are righteous and affectionate. It would be unacceptable for her as an aunt not to help her.

Not to mention that there are future benefits to look forward to, think about it, now my family just distributes some rations to them when their family is in the most difficult time, these children just think about their uncle, there is something to make money, They don't fall behind, and they help to think of ways and sell money. If my family gets closer to them, and my children and grandchildren have a deeper relationship with them, then if they get rich in the future, can they still watch their family suffer?So, just for the sake of her children and grandchildren's future, she also wants to be a good aunt.

With such an idea in mind, Jia Shi and Qi Shi had such an exchange, and they discussed the matter of the house even more intensely, thinking of ideas constantly, and for this reason Jia Huan's uncle was also involved. Come and discuss.

Originally, after the Qi family spent 15 taels of silver to buy clothes and other things for the children in the family, they had the idea that the three main houses were made of tile-roofed houses, and the other houses were also used together. The roof is made of seagrass, so the cost is much lower. After all, when they build a house here, they use stones as the foundation, and then build it three feet above, and then use stones and sea mud to stack them up. This kind of house , not only is it strong, it can withstand sea storms, and the cost is also low. After all, the most indispensable thing around here is stones, and sea mud is even near the sea. Fishermen often use the way to build a house. The materials can be cost-free, and three or four layers can be superimposed, with sea mud in the middle, which can guarantee shelter from wind and rain for about ten years, which is so cheap.

But Mrs. Jia persuaded Mrs. Qi to spend more money to change the house where Jia Huan and Xiaosan lived into tile-roofed houses. Because Brother Xing is about to get married, for the sake of saving face and showing respect for his wife's family, the reason is very reasonable, but doing so will easily create a estrangement between the three brothers, making the second son and the third brother feel neglected, Being treated badly, since the money in the family is not insufficient, why bother to save some money and bury unnecessary troubles for the future of these three brothers.

When Mrs. Jia said this, Mrs. Qi really realized it suddenly. She had never thought about it before, but she just thought that the money came too easily, and she was afraid that there would be no such good things in the future, so she thought about it. I want to leave more of my family property so that I can make plans for the future. Now that I heard what Jia said, I realized that I almost caused a conflict between brothers. I couldn't help but feel lucky for a while. Fortunately, I still have someone to talk to. , so as not to do something wrong.

Just this future livelihood?This is also a big deal. If you spend all your money at once, what will you do next?Continue to discuss, and then Jia naturally came up with an idea, raising pigs, how much money can be sold for this thing, it is not a problem to feed pigs here, there is plenty in the sea, people feed pig grass , Wouldn’t it be enough if they fed seaweed?The same thing doesn’t cost much, even their family, Uncle Jia Huan also intends to raise two at home. In the past, he had no money to buy piglets, nor did he have any money to build a livestock shed. Feeding the livestock, not to mention, those who have no money at home have a guilty conscience. To put it bluntly, they are afraid of losing money. It's hard.Raise it, anyway, you don't need any big capital, even if you lose money, you can afford it.

In this way, when Mrs. Jia and Mrs. Qi talked about it, the housewives of the two families immediately hit it off. They felt that this was definitely a very good idea. After feeding it for a year, how can a piglet grow two hundred catties, 25 Wen per catty, That's five taels of silver meat, and the miscellaneous internal organs and bones are worthless. How can pure meat be worth three taels of silver?

With such a calculation, the Qi family can finally feel at ease, feeling that the future of his family seems to be quite hopeful, and naturally he is willing to spend money on this house, so he completely adopted the plan given by the Jia family .Of course, at the same time, she was more or less thinking that in this way, during the time when the pig was not sold, the family would still spend more time on the conch, wind chimes and scallops, trying to earn more money so that they could make ends meet. Even if it is more difficult and more difficult, as long as the two pigs are grown and sold, the family will be able to breathe completely. At least six taels of income, this is the first year, she dare not raise more at home, What about the result of being afraid of losing money, if it is too much?Perhaps relying on this, I can earn all the money for the marriage of several children.

I don't want to think that these two children gave her such a big surprise in a blink of an eye, three or two, how many things can be done, um, or, this is simply the harvest of a pig for a year, she seems I saw the children in the future relying on this ability to keep drawing money home.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Qi looked at the two children with joy.

"Wait for the new house to be built. We've been tidying it up for a year. After your father's filial piety period, the family can hold happy events. Brother Xing is so old, and mother can finally wait until the daughter-in-law has tea."

Said that Jia Huan was nothing, Xing Ge'er's whole face immediately became red.It's just that the joy and hope in the eyes are shining dazzlingly.
