Chapter 140 Five taels of silver are worth it
When setting off the firecrackers, Su Zhi's ears were covered by Shen Zi'an. She felt that he was standing behind her, and the sound she heard in her ears was half as small. She felt very warm and safe, with a smile on her face. When the firecrackers were finished, she looked at the red pieces of paper all over
As soon as the firecrackers were set off here, there was the sound of firecrackers next to it. It turned out that Zhao Dazhu's family next to him also began to set off firecrackers.
"Yo, the girl is here. Look, look, the dress I'm wearing today is really beautiful. It looks like a bride. The Zi'an brothers really love people."
Before the firecrackers were finished, Dazhu's daughter-in-law came over, took Su Zhi's hand and began to praise. The smile on her face seemed to be soaked in honey, with a flatt.
Su Zhi thought that this man was really shameful. Soon she offended her and Shen Zi'an, and then offended the Shen family. As soon as she turned around, she could take her hand and talk, as if nothing had happened. Did she think that everyone else was a fool or something? She doesn't want to have more contact with this kind of person. Of course, she won't offend too much. As the saying goes, it's better to offend a gentleman than a villain. As long as this kind of person doesn't get close. If you want to cure them, just secretly find an opportunity inside. On the surface, you still need to
Before Su Zhi could say anything, Wang had come out of the door, as if to welcome Su Zhi, she took Su Zhi's hand so smoothly, and pulled Su Zhi over from the hand of Da Zhu's daughter-in-law.
"Fourth sister-in-law, come into the house quickly. I have something to tell you."
Su Zhi nodded with a smile and was pulled into the door by Wang, leaving Dazhu's daughter-in-law standing there empty.
The men of the Shen family took a look at the Zhao family. He didn't say anything and turned around and went into the yard. They didn't care about the Zhao family.
At this time, Zhao Dazhu had finished setting off the firecrackers and walked to his wife. He whispered, "This time the old Shen family is really annoyed with us. I haven't even called me these days. It's the Spring Festival, and they ignore us. Tiedan Niang, what do you think we can do? You can't be frozen like this, can you?"
Dazhu's daughter-in-law just wanted to ease the relationship between the two families from Su Zhi, but she didn't expect to be disturbed by the Wang family and was thrown down. Her heart was burning and listened to her man's words. He became more angry. He stared at him and said, "What are you afraid of? Meet them every day and say a few more words to them. I don't believe that they have been carrying it like this! Their whole family wants to have face. You have to talk to us sooner or later.
Zhao Dazhu immediately nodded and said that the daughter-in-law is in charge, and whatever the daughter-in-law says is what the family is.
When Dazhu's daughter-in-law saw her man like this, she was even more annoyed. She thought that Shen Zi'an, the daughter-in-law, had become like that at the beginning, but now she is so lucky. How can such a capable woman live such a poor life? It's really unfair. She was complaining in her heart when she saw her son's iron egg hiding behind the door. Immediately, he was in a hurry and ran over and scolded sadly.
"You don't worry-free baby! It's not that I won't let you come out, but I still want to have a fever again! Go back and lie down!"
It turned out that since the iron egg was fished up from the ice hole, although it saved a life, it has recovered, but its bones are weak. It didn't take long for him to get sick twice. Huang Langzhong said that he had taken good care of it, and it was better not to be scared again. So they didn't let him out of the house, and they didn't let him out with firecrackers, for fear that he would be scared. I didn't expect him to come out again. Dazhu's daughter-in-law immediately bombarded her back.
Zhao Dazhu watched his mother-in-law rush into the yard fiercely. He muttered, wondering why he had married such a fierce woman. Looking at Shen Zi'an, he married a sick and ugly ghost and could eventually become a beautiful woman. Now he is even rich. When can his mother-in-law change? Change. That's right
"Dead ghost! Don't come into the yard yet! Don't want to eat?!"
There was a loud scolding in the yard. Zhao Dazhu immediately went in with a bamboo pole. As he went in, he said dissatisfiedly, "Don't say this unlucky word during the Spring Festival. If you want to say that you are full, you can scold until after the Spring Festival. At that time, you can scold as you
Zhao Dazhu felt that his mother-in-law was fierce.
Shen Zi'an and the others also just entered the yard of the Shen family. Naturally, they heard the movement next door and laughed. Then they said how the two people talked to them these days and ignored them. They asked Shen Zi'an not to talk to them. Shen Zi'an and Su Zhi naturally nodded, so Lai Zi was natural. It's less troublesome.
The Shen family's yard is cleaner than usual today. It has been pasted with couplets. These couplets are not modern printed exquisite couplets, but red paper with auspicious sentences written with a brush. Naturally, the Shen family's couplets do not need to buy or go to other people's homes to ask for them. Their home is There is a talented Shen Ziju praised by everyone, and the couplets at home are all from him.
Shen Ziju not only wrote pairs for his family, but only asked to come to his house. He could write all of them, not cashing money, but only for a good reputation. However, the people in the countryside were simple and would not let him write for nothing. He would bring some things to thank him, such as two eggs, one cabbage and a few potatoes When people come down, they will come to their homes two months before the Chinese New Year. The dishes at home are full, and they can put down a few baskets of eggs.
These days are also the most beautiful days of the Shen family. Shen Youfu and Shen Zhang's face will be bright. Listening to the people who took the pair of them praising Shen Zi for writing good sentences, saying that he would definitely have a bright future, which made the Shen family very proud, as if Shen Ziju was in front of them.
Shen Zi'an's family also got the right of Shen Ziju's writing. At that time, Su Zhi felt that Shen Ziju's writing was really good. She didn't know how Shen Ziju's literary talent was. This word could be seen as a talented person. She thought that Shen Ziju might really become an official in the future. Just for his thoughtful nature, I guess as long as he finds a good backer, he can walk to the green mountains.
"Fourth brother, fourth sister-in-law, you are here."
Shen Ziju came out of the hall and saw Su Zhi looking at the pair on both sides of the door. He was a little happy. He thought that Su Zhi praised him when he sent the pair. He could feel that she really praised him. She was a man at first glance. Thinking about it, he looked at the screen she embroidered, and the appearance on it was It's very picturesque. The woman who can embroider such an embroidery must have a certain level of appreciation. Naturally, she knows that his handwriting is well written.
Shen Ziju now feels that Su Zhi has been wronged by marrying her fourth brother. If she can write and draw, she should marry a more worthy of her beloved...
Su Zhi saw that Shen Ziju was wearing a dark blue gown today, with a cloth towel on his head, a white face, and a slender appearance. He seemed to be more handsome than usual. Thinking that the Shen family was not bad, Shen Zhu and Shen Ziju followed Shen Zhang again, obviously more. The temperament, if you change into good clothes, you can charge the young lady who came out of the family. Born in such a farmer, it is really like Ganoderma lucidum in the grass, but he was not submerged, but he was still found.
"Fifth brother, good luck in the New Year."
Shen Zi'an said to Shen Ziju that during the Spring Festival, even if it is a family, the first sentence when they meet is usually like this to celebrate the New Year. Anyway, as long as it is auspicious words, someone likes to listen to it.
Su Zhi also said with a smile, "Fifth brother, good luck in the New Year."
Shen Ziju hurriedly said good luck in the New Year, and then asked them to quickly into the room. When Su Zhijing was beside him, he seemed to smell a faint fragrance again, which made his mind jump. Looking at Su Zhi's back, he saw Shen Ziju's hand gently holding Su Zhi's hand. He lowered his eyes slightly, and Go in.
Entering the hall, Shen Zi'an and Su Zhi paid New Year's greetings to Shen Youfu and Shen Zhang, and then sat down. At this time, Dalang and others had brought in the things they had brought in, and the food was taken to the kitchen, and the sugar and cloth were put away.
Shen Zhang asked Su Zhi to come and talk with her, and Shen Zi'an took out five taels of silver and gave it to Shen Youfu. In fact, when he was separated at that time, he said that he only needed to give one or two taels of silver a year, but now life is better. If they give one or two more silver, it Everyone will think that their young couple is wrong. Although they take the sense, sometimes it depends on the situation.
Su Zhi proposed to give five taels of silver. This is the first year they split up. They have just built a house and bought land. Everyone knows that they have made a fortune. If they only give one or two taels of silver to their parents, it sounds a little shabby. After all, they are not poor.
There is another reason, that is, Su Zhi thought that Shen Ziju was going to take the scholar examination after the beginning of spring. At that time, the Shen family will definitely discuss the matter of silver money for this matter. If the old couple of the Shen family have money, they will also let a few more sons pay. Instead of asking them at that time, it It's good.
Su Zhiju's Shen Ziju is expected to pass the exam, and this person is too thoughtful. It is better to have a good relationship with such a person than to have a bad relationship with him.
Five taels of silver can not only get a good evaluation from the villagers, but also make the Shen family happy, which is worth it.
Sure enough, as soon as Shen Zi'an took it out, he said that Shen Ziju was going to take the scholar examination and asked him to prepare well. Shen Youfu and Shen Zhang were very happy, and Shen Ziju also thanked him.
These five taels of silver is not a small amount. For country people, they can't make much money in a year. It's a good family that can save ten taels of silver.
Su Zhi took out a small cloth bag from the small basket he had hidden with him, gave it to Shen Ziju, and said with a smile, "Fifth brother, this is a New Year's gift for you. I hope you like it." ( To be continued) RQ
