MTL - Self-cultivation of Male Supporting Role-Chapter 373 compensation dowry

Shi Yan couldn't do anything about taking more money from other people. He took out the account book from his sleeve in the street. It was exactly the same as the settlement with Yao Shi at the beginning. He counted on the side, and the number reported was exactly the same as the number after the operation by the accountant who was holding the abacus ball Bala.

Not bad.

Do not take advantage of others, and never allow others to take advantage of him.

After getting the money, they didn't bother much. After the three were frightened, they were scared by the people behind the brain to make up their minds. Shi Yan didn't care much about it.

This money was taken back on the street, plus the sum I got from Yao Shi at the rice noodle shop last time, the total amount is 3,000 taels. In Bai'an County, it is a large sum of money, and all eyes are on it. Under the circumstances, it is impossible not to be known.

Before Shi Yan came home, the news spread out as if he had long legs. Those who had something good would sit on the small stool opposite Mrs. Miao, and put a small basket on his lap. The basket was full of needles and threads. Things, the soles of the shoes made of broken steps are pressed neatly, and the layers of the bottoms are skillfully contained without looking at them, but the work that comes out is very neat.

His mouth was not idle at all, his mouth was foaming, his eyebrows were dancing, and his voice was very loud, but he wanted to pretend to be whispering to someone, and used his eyes to guard against Second Aunt Liu who was washing clothes not far away.

"I said old sister-in-law, have you heard what I said just now? Your son-in-law just got another sum of money, plus the last time, I guess the boss should have this amount!"

As he spoke, he stretched out three fingers and shook them in front of Mrs. Miao.

"This is all the property left by your Fenghua and my Miao elder brother! Yes, everyone knows that your son-in-law has the ability and can make money, so he is kind to you.

But spending the son-in-law's money did not make the husband's daughter's money come easy. That old sister-in-law Qian'er is just right, how can there be a reason to leave the inheritance of your husband and daughter to your son-in-law? "

This is the truth, but after being nurtured by Shi Yan for such a long time, this is not enough to convince Mrs. Miao to take risks in front of Shi Yan. Don't tell you that stupid stuff.

Mother knows that this money will not come back without your efforts in the middle, but since it is going to come back now, it is another way of saying, don't blame mother for that.

Mother wants this money because of your eldest sister Fenglan, and you have seen the conditions of her husband's family. It is mother's thing that the family has milk. And away from home!

Mother thought to simply divide the money. You and your eldest sister are half of each other, which is to compensate your eldest sister for the grievances you have suffered over the years. When your eldest sister got married, our family business encountered problems, and she treated her poorly. This is also The reason why your eldest sister can't raise her head at her in-law's house for so many years.

With this money, your eldest sister's waist can also be straightened, so it's your mother begging you, fifth. "

As soon as Shi Yan came back, the old lady swirled around him, and stopped talking for a while, and finally found a space when the child was not around to say this.

After speaking, the old lady felt a little guilty, but when she thought about the life of her eldest daughter, her eyes became firm, and she looked resolutely unwilling to give in.

If it weren't for the constant trembling of his lips, Shi Yan would have believed that the old lady finally gave up her anger.

With a sigh in his heart, he took out an envelope from his sleeve and handed it over: "A total of 3,058 taels, I have all stored in Wang's Bank before I come back, this is the ticket number, you can take a look first.

I've already thought about what you're talking about.

If nothing else, I can't watch the eldest sister suffer grievances at her in-law's house just because of the eldest sister's affection for the two children, and things have to be dealt with, but it can't be handled in the way you said. "

The old lady Miao was stunned for a moment, then nodded in disappointment, her waist that had been plucked up and straightened up instantly pulled down again, and the person quickly withered.

Shi Yan continued: "If you want to do it, do it generously. Anyone who sees it will say it's good, so that the Wang family will never be wrong again for the eldest sister!"

Madam Miao looked at Shi Yan in confusion.

"In this way, let's spend 1,000 taels of silver to buy 200 acres of good land for the eldest sister outside the city, spend some money on the side of the field to build a small yard, and live in it to relax when the fruits are fragrant in autumn. The province is not happy to live there all day.

I took out another thousand taels, and I asked someone to find a few shops in the city. I didn’t choose any size or area. As long as the location was good, the eldest sister was not good at business. I just consigned and sold some needles, rouge, gouache, and bamboo baskets every month. If you can make a profit, it is enough for the rouge gouache of the eldest sister Su Ri, changing clothes in four seasons, going out to eat fresh food every two days, and dealing with the relationship between the woman's family.

As for the remaining 1,000 taels, I will leave it to the eldest sister to press the bottom of the box. It doesn't matter what she wants to do. "

Madam Miao was stunned, opened her mouth and forgot to speak, and stared blankly at Shi Yan as if she knew him on the first day.

Aunt Liu, who came over to call for a few people to eat, was also stunned. Her reaction was very real. She patted her thigh and exclaimed: "Master, you are doing a lot of work! Not to mention our Bai'an County, it is the family in that Fucheng. There are also a few who dowry 3,000 taels! It's rumored that our family Fenglan will envy how many women die!"

What's more, this is not the dowry of the eldest girl's marriage, but the dowry made up by the brother-in-law to the eldest sister who has been married for many years.

Second Aunt's words were not false. Even Mrs. Miao knew that there was no such thing as giving her all the family's wealth to her daughter.

Those more than 3,000 taels are all the achievements of Master Miao and Fenghua Miao for decades. If they didn't do things like this, even Madam Miao, who was partial to her eldest daughter, felt distressed when she heard Shi Yan's plan. One shot.

Feel bad, feel bad, anyway, the old lady will figure it out sooner or later.

Shi Yan found out that this old lady has her own set of standards, within which she can logically and self-consistently make everything. .

Afterwards, the old lady could always use her own standards and awkwardly add Shi Yan's behavior to her own logic to convince herself.

Soon outsiders knew that Shi Yan was going to make up the dowry for the eldest sister Feng Lan. Shi Yan didn't intend to deal with this matter in a low-key manner. The idle people in the security bureau came in and out of the Miao's house all day long. The horse is big, and I will send two cloths at a time, and a few chickens at a time. No matter how much, it is all a matter of heart, saying that it is a big sister who adds makeup.

Shi Yan has been running out every day, and today is in contact with the Zhuang households outside the city. Tomorrow, he goes to the yamen to go through the transfer procedures. Within half a month, the custom-made plaque for the shop was sent to the door in a hurry, causing a lot of discussion in the alley.

Needless to say, everyone in the nearby alleys knew that Xu Laowu wanted to give the eldest sister to marry a dowry, and if he made a move, he would have a huge fortune of 3,000 taels.

For many people, it is a wealth that cannot be accumulated in several lifetimes. Three thousand taels is just a number that exists in the imagination. There is no specific concept at all. to install.

Many people in the alley started muttering, saying that Miao Fenghua was unlucky. If she had lived a good life until now, look at Ren Fenglan, with this money, she would be lying in a blessed nest for the rest of her life. .

Some people saw that Yang He was tall and young, and thought that this kid was easy to talk about, so they pulled him to inquire: "Who is your boss really adding a dowry of 3,000 taels to that? Have this money saved for Xiaobao to marry a lady from a city in the future? Okay? Why can't you think about it?"

That's right, in the eyes of many people, Shi Yan's behavior is too stupid to think about.

Yang He Gao Xin said what do you know? It was only three thousand taels of silver, and the gentleman didn't even notice it. Besides, this is the inheritance of the Miao family, can you spend it? Don't look at what they say now, if the gentleman really spends it at that time, he will not be babbled by you behind your back.

But this is what he said: "Who said it wasn't? The kid made a private calculation, you said that now we have two big meat buns in our county for three cents, don't talk about two meat buns a day, smash! Just counted three meals for him, and the eldest girl's designated meal was white and fat, and only spent nine pennies.

One tael of silver buns can be eaten for a hundred or so days, every day throughout the year, and every meal is more than three taels of silver, plus other flowers, is five taels enough?

The boy is very knowledgeable, how many years can people eat meat buns for three thousand taels of silver? "

The man was stunned by what Yang Hegao said on the phone. He opened his eyes and pinched his fingers in confusion for a long time, then shook his head: "How much?"

Yang Hegao raised his brows high, his face was mysterious, and whispered a number in the man's ear: "Six hundred years!"

"Huo!" The man was startled, his eyes filled with the phrase "six hundred years", so he won't worry about eating and drinking in bed for the rest of his life?

"How many lifetimes, let's count the longevity for you, can you live to be sixty years old? That would take ten lifetimes to spend!

What, sixty is not enough? Then you are really greedy, don't live to be old and hate, let you live to eighty years old? That can also take seven or eight lifetimes! "

He was stunned for a moment, and he didn't know what to do next. He walked away with a deep foot and a shallow foot. Yang Hegao stood up and patted the soil stained on his body, returning to his taciturn appearance. Shi Shiran turned around and went home to discuss the matter. I told Shi Yan.

Shi Yan was very helpless: "You can't fool people with this trick. The account is not calculated like this. When he wakes up, it's time to complain that you played with him."

Yang Hegao was still not convinced: "It was your act of kindness and righteousness, sir, but they didn't say a good word. You kindly kept this money for Xiaobao and Ayun. They suspect that you are guarding yourself and stealing it. Give it to the old man. The wife kept it, but she was afraid that she would be deceived by someone with bad intentions.

Eyes are like growing on you, and they can't wait to find out something wrong to prove that you have a problem, so that they can feel happy in their hearts.

Give it all to Miss Lan, and say you are a fool again and again, and secretly suspect that you have used your hands and feet to gain benefits. Co-authoring the good and the bad let them finish! Mr. Qian'er from our own family, you can spend it as you want, and what do you have to do with them? Gossip, mind your own business!

Instead of this, I simply made them envious and helpless. I could only watch the itchiness and sleeplessness at night, and I felt much more relaxed when I saw it! "

Shi Yan couldn't help shaking his head. In the past, he thought that this child was taciturn and had a bottom line in his heart. He was a steady child. Now, seeing the innocent and light-hearted person recover a little bit of his nature, it was a bit of pleasure and hatred.

So he handed a post to Yang Hegao: "I went to my uncle's house and handed the post to my in-laws, saying that the fifteenth day of this month is a good day, and our family plans to invite someone to come with a dowry to compensate the eldest sister that day. Ask them what their opinions on this matter, and we will try our best to satisfy them.”

Yang Hegao took over the post and said in his heart, what opinions can you have? If I were the old couple of the Wang family, it would be too late to be happy!

Isn't the daughter-in-law's dowry here still subsidized by the son's family? In the end, the big head was left to the grandson, and the small head was left to the granddaughter. The fat and water did not flow into the fields of outsiders. In an instant, the Wang family rose from a barely subsistence family to the middle class, with no worries about food and clothing. In addition to feeling that the pie is falling from the sky, I am afraid that I will wake up laughing from a dream after knowing this, right?

"Dream? It's true that I never dreamed that such a good thing could happen to our family, but old man, have you forgotten what the eldest daughter-in-law has been living in our family all these years?

At the beginning of marrying the daughter of the Miao family, because of a sudden problem in their business, the dowry they said was less than half of the child.

You said that if people had so much money in their hands, their waists would be stiff, and they would not know what to think when they looked back! Can her money stick to both of us? Certainly not.

In the end, the two of us lost an obedient and useful daughter-in-law who was waiting in front of us, and we had an extra strong waist who could be the master of our ancestors. I really don’t know if it was a blessing or a curse! "

Yang Hegao left, and Mrs. Wang read the post in her hand over and over several times, but didn't understand anything, and muttered to Mr. Wang.

"Look, look, if you have money, it's amazing, and people are floating along, and they are still posting posts like others! How could the Miao family be so demonic in the past!

The eldest daughter-in-law's dowry hasn't entered the Wang's house. These days, the food is not cooked, and the water for washing feet has not been poured out. My mother-in-law ran away, this is not taking my mother-in-law seriously! "

The old man Wang smoked a pipe after another, and after listening to the old woman's nagging, he sighed and said, "Speak less, if you have money, you will not be your daughter-in-law? If you have money, not your daughter-in-law. Our royal family?

You can say this in front of me. You can’t even mention it when you look back at your in-laws. For the past six months, I have watched coldly, and we have all taken a wrong look at Xu Laowu, thinking he is a worthless dog eating shit. People are wolves that can bite people. Our boss is still relying on them to do business, so don't hold back the children.

Knowing that you have no energy in your heart, who can have energy in your heart? But isn't it time to run and not deal with it? You have to pretend to be happy for me! "

The two of them muttered for a long time, feeling that they couldn't suppress the pain of their daughter-in-law and the good days to come. They were shocked and couldn't sleep all night. It was extremely painful.

On the other hand, Miao Fenglan was indeed very happy when she returned to her mother's house. Her happiness was multi-faceted. Facing Shi Yan, she could also express her gratitude directly.

He personally made two new clothes for the two children inside and out, and watched the children run around looking for their father in the courtyard, vying for their father to see their new clothes.

Seeing the two children run away from a distance, Miao Fenglan turned to look at the old lady Miao who was holding a rope and a sash and said, "Mother, I used to worry about this and that, and I felt that even if I died, I would not be at ease.

Looking at it now, my brother-in-law is a responsible person. Even if he will leave our house one day in the future, I believe that he will leave the house properly before leaving. "

Miao Fenglan said with a look of emotion: "You don't know, these days are the most comfortable period of time I have lived after I got married. I don't have to get up early every day, wear the stars and wear the moon, and greet my mother-in-law in the wind and snow, and burn my mother-in-law in the dark at night. Foot water, wake up the earliest, sleep the latest, do a lot and still can't catch a word, the dog at home is more relaxed and comfortable than me.

If it wasn't for Dalang really pampering me, I don't know how I would have survived these years. Mother, I am content, really. "

After speaking, without waiting for Mrs. Miao to say anything, she got up and said, "It's getting late, I'll go ahead and see what Dalang and brother-in-law said, and we'll go directly to the school to pick up the child and go home, so I won't come to accompany you. time for dinner."

In the front, Shi Yan and Wang Dalang were talking about business matters. Wang Dalang was calm and alert. There were many things that he didn't have the chance to touch before.

Shi Yan was also willing to spend more time on him, the two talked for a while, Xiaobao and Ayun, led by Yang Hegao, jumped into the yard.

When outside the house, seeing that the door was closed, he stopped and stood up without being reminded, and Ayun asked, "Dad, can we come in?"

After receiving Shi Yan's permission, he happily entered the room, and when he saw outsiders, he politely and lively called his uncle, greeted others, and saluted.

At first glance, he looked like a good tutor. Wang Dalang was very happy to see it. He took out two monkey wood carvings from his arms and handed them to the two: "Uncle has nothing to do, take it and play!"

The two children glanced at Shi Yan, nodded when they saw Shi Yan, and accepted it happily, carefully holding it in their hands and loving it, making Wang Dalang inexplicably feel that his contribution was valued by others.

Involuntarily, he sighed to Shi Yan, "Brother-in-law taught the two children really well."

Anyway, when the second sister was alive, the two children didn't know whether they were young or what, the impression they gave to Wang Dalang was not as painful as it is now.

Shi Yan smiled without saying a word. Here, he did not teach the two children anything seriously, just let them play to their heart's content every day. As long as he was free, he would personally take the two children to play.

When the weather is fine, I go to set up paper kites outside the city. On rainy days, I make unsuccessful oil-paper umbrellas under the porch with the children. On snowy days, I wear thick sheepskin gloves to play snowball fights in the courtyard.

He took two children when he went to Mr. Zhou's house as a guest, and he also took two children when he went to the county magistrate's house to visit Mr. Liu.

Maybe it seems to the children that he is playing with them, but he is accustomed to seeing various scenes unconsciously, and he knows how to behave naturally, without anyone teaching anything.

Whether it is piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, or playing tricks and performing arts, whether it is the delicacies of the mountains and seas on the banquet table, or the fireworks on the streets and alleys, you can face it calmly, and that's enough.

Shi Yan didn't plan to train the two children to be elegant young ladies with a standard and exemplary attitude in every move, no matter how much they eat and how much they serve, it's not a good thing to train them on that line under the current conditions.

With him, no matter what situation the two children are in, they can deal with them calmly, without being awkward or restrained, and without complaining about others, which is the biggest choice he made for them.

Of course, these are not necessary to say to brother-in-law Wang Dalang. Each pair of parents has their own unique views on how to manage their own children, and theirs may not be suitable for the Wang family. The Wang family has their own unique family atmosphere, and it is better for outsiders to intervene less.

The husband and wife were sent off politely. Shi Yan held the two children in one hand, and talked to Liu Erbo at the door. With Yang Hegao and the money bag, the four of them happily went to dinner before dinner. Go shopping outside.

This is a recently added entertainment project in the family. Whenever Shi Yan has free time, he takes his children to play in the street, and allows them to observe all kinds of life in the market. good teacher.

When they got to the street, the two had a child in one hand, Shi Yan was holding Ayun, Yang Hegao carefully guarding Xiaobao, and he was hesitant to say anything to Shi Yan several times.

Shi Yan knew what he was thinking without asking, and said funny: "I haven't forgotten what you said. I know that my brother-in-law's children were bullied in the school. Today, I deliberately didn't mention it in front of my eldest sister and brother-in-law."

As he spoke, he looked at Yang Hegao. This kid has learned to look down on people's faces despite his years of wandering outside, but due to the lack of love all the year round, he met someone who was really kind to him and treated him as a family. He just wants to worry about you in every aspect, hoping that you will be comfortable everywhere.

Forget about worrying about it, he could find a way to find out how the two children of Wang Dalang's family who were studying in the school were doing.

I heard that the two children have been praised by their husband several times because of their late schooling, and their family background is not as good as that of others.

But Yang Hegao was anxious.

Shi Yan suddenly rubbed Yang Hegao's head with his free hand, while Yang Hegao was stunned, he said earnestly, "Sheng Mien fights Mi Chou, everything has to have a limit.

If we extend our hands everywhere about the Wang family, it will be enough to pay them once or twice. As time goes on, the Wang family will inevitably feel that our hands are too long and try to control them everywhere.

If it is you, no matter the big or small matters in your family, there is always a mother-in-law who asks you. This mother-in-law will take the initiative to eliminate the trouble whether you can solve it on your own or not. What would you think? "

Shi Yan withdrew his hand and replaced his left hand holding his daughter, right hand holding Yang Hegao, Yang Hegao holding Xiaobao in his right hand, and the four of them walked in a row on the street.

"Thanksgiving, why bother?

We have to restrain others, but more importantly, restrain ourselves. We often warn ourselves that some things cannot be done, even in the name of being good for others. "

The setting sun shone on a few people, Yang Hegao tilted his head to look at the calm and calm gentleman in the downtown area, feeling the warmth from his palms, for the first time, he felt that perhaps his father, who could not remember his appearance for a long time, was like this Well, I can accompany my children to play on the street, and I can also shelter them from the wind and rain, and relieve their confusion.
