Chapter 10 Persecution

Before Yang Laoshi finished speaking, Mrs. Li had already understood what Yang Laoshi meant, and immediately clapped her thighs and cried, "Old man, you don't know how expensive firewood and rice are when you don't live in the family. There are dozens of mouths for a family to eat, and Qingyun's monthly bundle." Repair, pen, ink, paper and inkstone, exchange of favors, that is free..."

Asking Granny Li to pay for it was to dig out her heart and lungs. Yang Laoshi looked at her crying with snot and tears, and had a headache, "How much is that..."

Mrs. Li also knew that although the old man did not know the specific amount of money in the family, he knew the approximate amount, so she stopped crying and said, "More than one tael of silver, but Qingyun came back last time and said that his wife's birthday will be in two days. A birthday gift, and his wife will be handed over soon."

Little Li quickly answered, "Dad, Qingyun's summer shirt from last year is very worn and needs to be replaced. After all, the head of the family works in front of others, and that summer shirt is also very worn. And Liu'er, the Zhang family is going to prepare I'll be hiring in a few days..."

After the spring plowing was over, Xiao Li took Yangliu to the county town. It turned out that it was for Yangliu's marriage.

Mrs. Li and her niece Xiao Li are such shrewd people. After crying about poverty, they have clearly arranged the way out of the two or so silver, but there is a tendency that it is not enough.

"well……"

Yang Laoshi let out a long sigh. He knew what was going on at home, and he also knew what kind of person his old wife and eldest daughter-in-law were. He probably had an idea of ​​the current money at home.

The money at home is not as little as the old woman said, but there is not even five taels of silver.

What the old woman said is true. A family of more than 20 people still have to eat. The eldest grandson has to pay for his trousers, pens, inks, paper and inkstones. Liu Yatou still has to prepare a banquet...

Yang Laoshi couldn't help but move his eyes to Yang Yun's thin body, and was caught in a dilemma for a moment.

"Grandpa, don't be embarrassed. I know what's going on at home. Today is our second wife's request to cancel the engagement. These five taels of silver will count as our second wife's."

Although the second wife of the Yang family had promised to give the Wang family 5 taels of silver to break off the engagement, Yang Yun caught Yang Laoshi's tangled look and was afraid that he would not agree to break off the engagement due to pressure, so she hurriedly spoke.

Yang Laoshi's wish is for family harmony and for his sons to work together and unite as one.

He also disagreed with his wife's preference for the eldest daughter-in-law and her harsh treatment of the second eldest daughter-in-law. However, family affairs were the business of the mother-in-law and daughters-in-law, and he could not get too involved, so he had to turn a blind eye.

Now in front of outsiders, he had to uphold justice, "What did Yun Yatou say? How can our family speak the same language?"

After saying that, he glared at Yang Sanming who was about to speak, and then moved his gaze to Wang Yougen.

"My eldest nephew, there are more than 20 people in the family, and there is also a scholar. Money is a little tight for the time being, and the family still has a little bit of land. Let's see if we can extend it until the autumn harvest..."

There is still more than a month until the autumn harvest, which is a bit long.

Wang Yougen frowned and said, "Uncle, I also know your family's difficulties, but the baby at home is getting older and we can't delay any longer, so I can only give you half a month."

"Oh... okay, I'll think of a way."

Wang Yougen and his wife had been worried that the Yang family would not recognize the five taels of silver, but now they felt at ease after listening to Yang Laoshi's words.

After Wang Yougen and others left with satisfaction, Yang Sanming and others, who had been holding back, finally spoke, pointing their finger at Yang Yun, Yang Erming and Qin.

"Yun Yatou, you are really capable. You can get five taels of silver out of your mouth as soon as you open your mouth..."

Yang Yun bore the brunt of Zhao's wrath.

Mrs. Zhao put one hand on her hips and the other on her belly, spitting foam almost onto Yang Yun's face.

If her bulging belly hadn't restricted her movements, Yang Yun thought to herself, maybe Zhao would step forward and give her a few slaps.

"Yes, Yun girl, as soon as your upper lip touches your lower lip, you owe the family five taels of silver. Five taels of silver is not five cents. Your uncle worked hard for this family for only one tael of silver a month."

"You, Sister Liu'er and Sister Zhi'er, do embroidery all day long to supplement the family income, and only earn a few dozen cents a month."

"When will you be able to earn five taels of silver? My poor Qingyun, it seems that your studies have come to an end."

Mr. Li never forgets to show off his family's contribution, even when he is crying about poverty.

Yang Yun sneered in her heart and said, "Auntie, third aunt, please don't worry, I will find a way to get these five taels of silver."

"Tsk, what can a little girl like you think of? You have to think clearly, that's five taels, not five cents." Yang Sanming sneered.

"Of course, I thought clearly, so I won't bother Third Uncle to remind me."

"You can't think of a way to come up with five taels of silver after half a month?" Zhao asked.

"Don't worry, Third Aunt, if I can't get it out, I will sell myself to get the five taels of silver together before I hang myself. I will never hinder you."

As soon as Yang Yun's words came out, Yang Erming, Qin Shi, Yang Qinglin, and Yang Siming all exclaimed, "Yun'er..."

Although Yang Laoshi didn't make a sound, he suddenly raised his head and looked at Yang Yun.

After hearing Yang Yun's words, Granny Li, Xiao Li, Zhao and Fang all looked relieved, but they all breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts. As long as they don't spend money from home, other things are not within their scope of consideration.

Inside.

Everyone is afraid of death. Although Yang Yun's words were decisive, they firmly believed that they were just trying to scare them.

If you really can't get any money at that time, you might as well just marry into the Wang family.

"Yun Yatou, what are you talking about? What about immortality?" Yang Laoshi scolded sternly, still looking in disbelief at the man who stood upright not far away and spoke loudly.

The people in front of me always feel a bit strange.

I was confused for a moment if this was my granddaughter?

However, such thoughts flashed past Yang Laoshi.

Naturally, the granddaughter is still the same granddaughter. Maybe she was frightened by what happened today.

Yang Laoshi sighed inwardly and comforted in a low voice, "Don't worry, girl, even if grandpa has no ability, he will never sell his granddaughter. For five taels of silver, grandpa will find a way, and your uncles and uncles will not ignore it."

Yours, don’t say those unlucky words in the future, so as not to hurt your parents."

Yang Sanming and his wife originally wanted to force the second house to shoulder the debt of five taels of silver, but Yang Lao's truth broke Zhao and Yang Sanming's little thoughts.

The debt of five taels of silver seems to have been stipulated by the couple.

Yang Sanming was never willing to bear the debt for no reason. Seeing that the pressure on Xiao Xiao failed, he turned to play the family card towards the already red-eyed Yang Erming.

"Second brother, what do you want me to say to my brother? Girls are all married off, and they all marry early and late. How can you bear to let the whole family bear foreign debts for you?"

"Yes, Second Sister-in-law, look at the second uncle of the children paralyzed on the kang. All the work on the ground depends on the head of the house and the third uncle of the children. They have already worked hard enough. How can you bear to bear the burden of five taels of silver?

On them?" Fang quickly interjected before Yang Siming could stop her.
