Chapter 903
Inside the tent, listening to the even breathing of the person in his arms, Xue Wenyu raised the corner of his mouth.
She is so unique, she is the identity of Mrs. Yipin. If you want to dig medicinal herbs, just move your mouth.
However, she still had to do it herself.
However, it is certain that she is really happy today.
Xue Wenyu felt that there was only one thing she had to do for the rest of her life, that was, to work hard to make her so happy every day and have such a good mood.
The night in the mountain village is particularly quiet, and the night birds chirp from time to time.
When you are in a good mood, you will feel particularly pleasant when you hear the singing of the night bird.
It was almost midnight, and in the main room of the yard, the family was not sleepy at all except the children in their arms.
The whole family sat around the table. For the first time in so many years, I have been so willing to let the oil lamp be lit until now.
On the table, in addition to the oil lamp, there is an open purse, a few silver ingots, a pile of scattered silver horns, and a silver note worth 100 taels.
"Old man, can we really accept this?" The old lady's voice still couldn't calm down.
It turns out that when the harvest is good all year round, it is the happiest thing to have a silver slot left in the family at the end of the year.
But I never thought that I suddenly got lucky and became rich!
Not only are there a whole large silver ingot, but there are even silver notes!
"Check it, didn't that lady say that this is the reward for herbs." After the old man said that, he looked at his son; "Please ask matchmaker Liu to come in a few days and help Qingbai go to the Tao family to propose marriage. One hundred taels of silver will be given to them."
"Father, my son thinks that this matter cannot be hasty. The reason why the Tao family asked for a 100 taels of betrothal is actually a reason to refuse to make things difficult for us.
Although we can really show it now, don’t we all know who their family is. They are stingy and greedy, and they put forward other harsh conditions again. What should we do?" The old man’s son remained silent after supper.
Hearing this, the others looked at the old man's grandson, Wan Qingbai, who was also silent.
This child liked the girl from the Tao family. There was nothing he could do before, but now it's better.
"Grandpa, let's keep the money for my father to build a new house, and let's send Quan'er to Mr. Bian to study." Wan Qingbai spoke, and he made up his mind to speak.
No one expected that he would say that.
"Bai'er, don't you like the girl from the Tao family?" the old lady asked in confusion.
The young grandson liked the girl in the Tao family, and the family knew it. So, when he reached the age of marriage, even though he knew the temperament of the family, he still invited the matchmaker to come.
As a result, the matchmaker brought the message back and said that the Tao family would like to have a betrothal fee of 100 taels and could not get it out, so they would not be allowed to negotiate.
More than a year has passed since this incident. My family felt very uncomfortable when they watched Qingbai chop firewood every day and go out to find a job to make money.
Because they all knew in their hearts that no matter how hard the family worked, they would not save enough of a 100 taels of betrothal in one or two years.
But after a long time, people won't wait.
Since the last time I said that I have been married, I have heard that many people have gone to the Tao family to propose marriage, but they are all stumped by the conditions proposed by his family.
Everyone in the village said that the Tao family planned to make a fortune by marrying a daughter.
Wan Qingbai smiled bitterly, "I'm telling the truth, not angry. I used to like her, but now I don't like her. This time it's because my grandfather is lucky and meets the kind-hearted Mrs. Yipin, so our family has hope of living a good life.
With this money, you can build a new house, Quan'er can study, and grandparents don't have to work as hard as before. They are old and have to help support their families. When they get sick, we have money to ask the doctor to see it.
Why do you give all these money to the stingy and greedy Tao family?
You don’t need to worry, we have the guidance of our first-class wife, so we can make more money in the future. At that time, are you still afraid that I won’t be able to marry a wife?
At that time, maybe many people will come to our family to talk to each other. At that time, we will still have to pick and choose. Are we handsome or virtuous?
This was very relaxed, but no one in the family could laugh.
"Qingbai, is this what you say in your heart?" The old man from the head of the family was relieved and distressed when he listened to his grandson's words.
This kid is so sensible.
Wan Qingbai nodded seriously, "Grandpa, what grandson said is what he said in his heart. Isn't the reason why grandson has not gotten married yet because our family is poor? If the conditions in the future are better, this will naturally not be a problem."
The old man nodded with relief, "Okay, then I'll listen to Qingbai. I'll take Station Quaner to a private school tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, and then, our family will build a new house. Now, go to bed. Remember to get up early tomorrow and go to other valleys to see if there is the herb that my wife wants.
Even if I can't find it for the time being, my eyes will brighten when I go up the mountain in the future. When I see that herb, I dig it and send it to my wife.
As much as you have, you can give as much as you want, as long as the lady always needs it.
I want you to remember the good things about this lady to our family for the rest of your life and you must never forget it.”
The family and the young nodded together, even if they didn’t say it, they would remember it for the rest of their lives!
"Be gentle when you move, don't disturb them." The old man explained with concern.
Seeing his son and daughter-in-law and grandson went out, the old man held the silver and silver notes on the table and circled around the house. Where should I put it? Where can I put it safe?
The next day, Mu Yingbao opened his eyes and saw Xue Wenyu had washed up and sat on the felt pad to look at him.
"Don't sleep for a while?" he asked with a smile.
Mu Yingbao smiled and shook his head, sat up and stretched, "No, hurry up and teach them how to make wine, and then we will go back earlier and make herbs." After that, he got up quickly and saw that the washing water was ready.
After leaving the tent, I saw Quan'er squatting outside, holding a small wooden stick and playing with the ants on the ground.
As soon as he looked up, he saw Mu Yingbao and immediately stood up happily; "Madam, I really want to go to a private school."
Mu Yingbao stepped forward and touched his head; "Is that so good? Then you should study hard and not let down your family's expectations for you."
Quan'er nodded seriously; "Well, Quan'er can study hard, and he will not be deceived by others after learning words."
"Being cheated? Someone cheated you? How did you cheat?" Mu Yingbao asked curiously.
"It's the business in the next village who bullied my family and no one could read. I cheated on the several acres of land in my family. I don't know the specifics, because I was not born at that time. I heard my mother say that if those acres of land were still there, the family's life would not be so difficult." Quan'er said very sadly.
Xue Wenyu and Lin Chuan were standing by the side all the time, and Mu Yingbao and Quan'er could hear clearly.
Hearing this, Lin Chuan looked at his master.
When Xue Wenyu saw his subordinates' expressions, he knew that he had thought of going with him...
