Bring your aunt to eat big meat, the scumbag father's family is furious

Dayong and Dacheng couldn't bear it anymore, so they walked forward and punched him one by one.

The two men were knocked to the ground, screaming and cursing as they crawled back.

Da Meng and Xiao Meng kicked each of them on the buttocks, and they dared not curse anymore.

Today, I collected thirty-five taels, which is enough money to build a house.

When Qiao Jianer drove the carriage to order building materials, he pricked up his ears to listen to the discussions on the street, but he heard nothing.

She guessed that if there were any unusual movements, it would have to wait until after the autumn harvest.

She also heard the uncle say that taxes should be increased, and land rent was one of the main sources of tax revenue.

But to be honest, after the rainy season, the rice can be harvested after ten days of drying. In August, every household is harvesting rice, and the houses are built, and it is almost September.

The time was still a bit tight, but if those people arrived at the fastest speed, she would be able to avoid them in time.

Now that the family has five hundred taels, all the materials are no longer a problem. The remaining money can be saved as capital for future living.

While driving the carriage, Qiao Jian'er thought that if Daze Country was in danger, she would be willing to give out part of her property, but it would be impossible for her to give out all of it because most people did not give as much as she did. However, those people obviously would not reason with her.

When supplies really run out, we'll just grab whatever we can get.

How should she hide the money she saved?

After returning home, Qiao Jianer started to keep the account book.

In fact, everyone knows the prices of the snacks she sells at her stall, and the prices at which restaurants wholesale ingredients from her are also public.

From the number of people queuing up at her place and the number of business owners and shopkeepers who come to her to wholesale ingredients, anyone with an eye can infer how much money her family earns in a day.

It is not easy to do anything about this, and she cannot do anything about it, because the accounting office has records of how much food is wholesaled from restaurants and hotels. If they don't match, she will be in danger.

Then we can only start from one point, that is the cost of ingredients.

Yes, write down the cost of the ingredients and balance it with the money earned in the future. It will be almost the same as the 500 taels used to build the house, and then you can get away with it.

Now we register the front ones first, and then register the back ones day by day. After all, the ink traces one month ago and one month later are different. This is the reason why some people were arrested for making temporary accounts.

Also record the mushrooms sold earlier, making sure to include every detail so that they look authentic.

I didn't remember it very clearly, so Qiao Jianer verified it with his family, and he also did some rough accounting before, so it went relatively smoothly.

After settling the accounts, almost half the night had passed. After the men finished practicing their moves, Qiao Lianer started teaching everyone how to practice calligraphy.

At this time, Song Ruier was kneeling in front of the Song family, sobbing and crying.

Song Lao Er was holding a whip in his hand, Song Rui'er's back was covered in blood, and her clothes were torn.

Chen's face was gloomy, and she wished she could tear Song Rui'er's bones apart: "As expected, it's not your own child that is not close to you. You can't guard against thieves in your own family. You have disgraced me and your father, and you just don't care about our reputation."

"Grandma, Mom and Dad, I really want to study and go to school. I will return all these things I took from home to you ten thousand times after I pass the imperial examination."

"Believe me, I will pass the exam. I'm much smarter than those idiots in the charity school."

Song Ruier had a determined look on his face. He knew that he would be beaten when the Song family came back from the county town, but he did not regret it. He would do the same thing again if he had the chance. He would rather die than not be able to study.

"Can you pass the exam? What can you guarantee? Just relying on your mouth, many scholars can't pass the exam to become a scholar, and will remain a student until they die, let alone pass the imperial examination." Song Lao Er sneered, totally unconvinced.

If he hadn't been beaten up in the county town and hadn't slept all night, leaving him with no energy, he would have beaten the kid even harder and beaten him to death.

Old Mrs. Song didn't say anything. She was staring at Song Ruier's expression.

There were several times before when Song Ruier came to her and said she wanted to study, but she did not allow it.

The path of studying requires continuous investment of money, and it is difficult to get a return, so many families will not make this decision easily.

There are only seven or eight families who send their children to the village charity school, and that is because the village charity school saves money.

If I go to the town, I have to rent a house and compare myself with the children from rich families to buy more expensive pens, ink, paper and inkstone. In a year, I will spend more than ten taels of silver.

But now she saw determination in Song Ruier's eyes, as if she would really die if she didn't study.

They also thought about the setbacks they had suffered in the county town. The Qiao family could make a lot of money by escorting goods and running snack stalls, but they could not do these things, so they could only rely on studying.

So now, Old Lady Song's thoughts have changed a little.

Why not take a gamble on studying?

Moreover, the third brother's return is not far away. When he sees his son being sent to school, he will definitely be touched.

Chen couldn't bear it any longer. After gathering her strength for a while, she stood up and slapped Song Ruier in the face again.

"Okay." Old Lady Song stopped her.

Then she looked at Song Ruier and asked, "Are you really determined to study and pass the exam?"

"Yes, I must study and pass the exam."

"If you fail the exam, you will have to return the money the Song family spent on your studies." said Old Lady Song.

Seeing that Old Lady Song had given in, Second Old Song and Chen looked at each other in surprise.

Because before, Old Lady Song was strongly opposed to Song Ruier's desire to study, so they beat her so hard to prevent her from asking her to pay them back.

"Okay, if I don't pass the exam, I will pay you back double." Song Ruier swore word by word.

Old Lady Song took a deep breath and said, "Okay, you should go to school from now on."

Song Lao Er's eyes lit up and he immediately changed his mind. If this kid passed the exam in the future, wouldn't he be able to enjoy the benefits too?

Chen was already fantasizing that as a mother, she might be able to become a lady of noble title.

A few days later, everyone saw that the sky, which was clear and blue a few days ago, was now covered with layers of dark clouds.

These dark clouds were still gray, but they were huge in size. As time went by, the color of the clouds became darker and darker, and they looked heavier and heavier, with occasional flashes of lightning.

A wind started to blow in the air, blowing straight into people's necks, mixed with the peculiar sultry heat of July and a few hints of coolness.

Look at the mountain, the trees and bamboo forests are falling down in the direction of the wind, and the wind is whistling and howling.

This is the prelude to the coming of heavy rain.
