Traveling through ancient times, storing supplies and not fleeing famine

There is chaos in Mr. Liu's house right now.

Doctor Zhao helped Liu Lao Da and his son to set their bones, and they both recovered quickly.

It doesn't hurt anymore.

But when she thought about how much money the old lady had to pay out, even the silver hairpin that she had spent several taels of silver to make was used to pay for the medical expenses.

Everyone felt particularly heartbroken.

Liu Zhongqiang, who had not returned for a long time, had no time to care about the injuries of his father and elder brother.

Instead of blaming his family, he asked for money from Old Mrs. Liu.

"Why don't I have money? How can I go to town to study without money? Where did the money in the family go?"

Liu Zhongqiang shouted loudly, completely lacking the demeanor of the majority.

Old Mrs. Liu sat there rubbing her fingers, not daring to say a word, completely lacking her usual arrogance.

Boss Liu was lying on the kang. Although his jaw had been fixed long ago, he felt pain all over his body and didn't want to get up at all.

Listening to his son Liu Zhongqiang asking the old lady for money, he remained silent.

In fact, he mainly wanted to know how much silver the old lady had in her hands, and it would be best if it could all be taken out.

No matter how much he can spend on studying, he wants to hold the rest in his own hands.

Liu Sunshi had no position to speak. While fanning Liu Zhongqiang, she looked left and right to see how the two people were arguing.

Liu Zhongsheng and Liu Zhonghui looked disdainful.

He kept studying and every time he asked for money under the pretext of studying.

I wonder how much extra money has been spent over the years?

The Liu family's money doesn't belong to him alone.

Other brothers also have a share.

If he emptied all the money in the family, would everyone be left to starve?

"I'm asking you a question. Tell me what's going on! Where's the money? Where did it go?"

The silence of the crowd made Liu Zhongqiang even more arrogant, and he shouted loudly at Old Lady Liu.

Old Mrs. Liu was always flattered by her other two grandsons, except for her most beloved grandson.

It was fine before. Every time she asked for money, as long as she gave it to her, Liu Zhongqiang would always call her "good girl" and coax her.

Unexpectedly, after losing the money this time, he became a completely different person.

"Ever since your second uncle passed away, the family has lost a large portion of its income.

Apart from the few acres of land at home, there is no other source of income.

Those few acres of land are barely enough for our family to eat and drink.

Not to mention that another part of it has been divided out now.

The money you have used for your studies and daily expenses over the past year was all saved from the money your second uncle earned.

A lot of things have happened at home recently. Last time I lost more than four taels of silver, and this time that little whore extorted more than two taels of silver.

In order to treat your father and your brother, I even gave my most valuable jewelry to Doctor Zhao.

Where is the money left at home now?

How about that? How about that? I still have over 100 wen, can you save it? Haven't you already paid this year's tuition?

It's enough to buy less pens, ink, paper and inkstone. Next year? We'll talk about next year."

When Liu Zhongqiang heard that the family had no money left, he slapped the hand of Liu Sun who was fanning him.

"Grandma, you too, are so old, you have lived in vain, so just pay them if they ask you to?

Why? Forget about this time, but what about the last time?

They even said they would drive us out of the village. Do they dare to do that?

snort!

When I pass the exam and become a student, the officials will see it, and then they will be punished severely to support you!"

Old Lady Liu seemed oblivious to the disrespect in Liu Zhongqiang's tone. She was only thinking about waiting for her golden grandson to pass the examination to become a student, and then pass the examination to become a scholar and a juren to become a high-ranking official.

There was no need for her to endure so much anger. Not to mention that little whore, even if the village chief knelt down to polish her shoes, she wouldn't even look at him.

When I thought of this, I wished I could give Liu Zhongqiang everything I had.

He not only took out the last 100 copper coins.

There was also a silver bracelet in the box that she had pressed down.

"My dear grandson, I am counting on you to pass the imperial examination next year, so you must not be stingy with your money. Take this silver bracelet to the town and pawn it. You can buy whatever you want. If you need money again, I will find a way."

Liu Zhongqiang took everything given by Old Lady Liu without thinking.

He never thought about what to do after he spent all these things.

He just thought that with these things, he could pawn the silver bracelet for silver and then treat his classmates to a few more meals at the restaurant.

Whenever he hosted a dinner, his classmates would flatter him, which greatly satisfied his vanity.

While he was happy, some people were unhappy.

The brothers Liu Zhongsheng and Liu Zhonghui started quarreling with old lady Liu.

"Grandma, is this all the money we have at home?

You gave it all to my second brother, what should I do in the future?

I'm already 16. Most people would have been engaged long ago, but I don't even have a partner now.

What can I use to marry a bride if I have money coming to my family? "

"Yes! Grandma, I think you are really getting old and confused. Look at what you have done recently.

Not only did he not gain any benefit, but he also lost so much money.

This amount of money is not only enough for my eldest brother to get married, but also enough for the family to have a few more meals of meat!

It's all your fault, and Dad's. Why can't you be like Second Uncle? When Second Uncle was alive, he would always bring back a lot of money every time he went out to work.

During the slack season, you just lie down every day and don't even think about finding a job?"

The complaints from the two children made both Old Lady Liu and Old Man Liu angry.

The house was instantly in an uproar.

Mrs. Liu Sun was dissatisfied with Old Lady Liu.

But she was used to smoothing things over, trying to persuade people left and right without offending anyone.

Liu Zhongqiang looked at everyone making a lot of noise, took the things that Old Lady Liu gave him and went back to his room.

He doesn't care at all about the chaos at home.

……

During this period, Xia Shengsheng not only took care of the house construction, but also went up the mountain to hunt.

Whether it's in the mall, the balance in the bank card, or the money I currently have in hand, I have saved a lot.

But it still feels like it’s not enough.

This money can only ensure that you will not starve to death in the next few years, but it is far from enough if you want to live a rich life and deal with future disasters.

Xia Shengsheng also opened another locker instead of the original one, and put all the valuable things in the house in the locker, which is safer.

……

"The water is coming out, the water is coming out..."

A large group of people gathered around the well in the backyard.

The leader was Master Fan, who was digging a well.

Master Fan was so excited that he almost shed tears.

Others cheered too.

"The water finally came out! I was so scared! I thought my signboard was going to be smashed!" Master Fan wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and patted his frightened little heart.

"I was talking about Master Fan's craftsmanship! How could there be no water?

This is called the sky clearing up after the rain, look how beautiful the water is!

Garlic, come pick some for us to taste."
