Sir, my wife is pretending to be innocent again

Chapter 476: Do good deeds and accumulate virtue, and don’t fall behind others

Cheng Xiaosi suddenly said this, and Cheng Erniang couldn't answer it for a while. Cheng Xiaosi continued: "You can take it to the army and set up a school. If those child soldiers learn more skills, they can not only make meritorious deeds, but also live a good life." OK."

There was no way, she was too rich, so she wanted to donate more money. Mainly because she had enjoyed such a great blessing without doing anything good, she felt very guilty, and she wanted to donate some money for peace of mind.

What's more, she couldn't spend much money just sitting at home. Not only was she not spending money, her coffers were still rising. In addition, Yuan Su gave his family fortune to herself, and her second uncle even sent her money from across the mountain. Come on, there are no words to describe how rich you are.

Cheng Erniang blinked, "Are you serious?"

"If you want to donate, I will definitely ask for it. The soldiers under your brother-in-law are all crying out for poverty. They can use it to train child soldiers and resettle those who have retired. But ten thousand taels is a huge amount of money. If you don't agree with your brother-in-law, discuss?"

"Is there anything to discuss?"

Cheng Xiaosi asked Huahua to get the 10,000 taels of silver notes and handed them directly to Cheng Erniang, "I can still do this, sister, just take it."

"By doing good deeds and accumulating virtue, I will not fall behind others."

How dare you just accept such a huge sum?

Cheng Erniang was still a little unsure, and those who didn't know thought she was here to hunt for girls.

"Why don't you tell your mother-in-law?"

Cheng Xiaosi turned his head and said, "Mother Fang, go to your mother and tell her."

Grandma Fang took the order, and Mrs. Yuan came back with her, bringing an additional five thousand taels. "I support all things that do good and accumulate virtue. I will add another five thousand taels so that those dolls can know a few more." Words, learn a few more moves to make those retired veterans live a better life.”

Although the Yuan family and the Niu family can be regarded as in-laws, they have always maintained a certain distance between them. The Niu family holds military power and has never been close to anyone else. They all understand that, but if there is a chance, they can get close to the Niu family. Come closer, why not?

She felt that Cheng Xiaosi's move was very smart, and the Niu family had to accept it even if they didn't accept it. Of course, she was a considerate person, "It's also for the sake of my unborn grandson's blessing. This matter is There is no need for others to know, and there is no need to tell the soldiers to avoid unnecessary trouble. "

Cheng Erniang accepted it with peace of mind. She had learned a lot these days when she married into the Niu family. No matter how everyone avoided suspicion, in the eyes of outsiders, the Niu family and the Yuan family were tied together, so it would not be good to pretend to be reserved. , not to mention that she really doesn’t have much money.

This lack of wealth does not mean that she has paid a dowry again, but that she has now officially become the housekeeper of the Niu family. The Niu family's accounts are not well-off. She did not use her dowry after her parents repeatedly warned her. She just took over the Niu family's house. At that time, I discovered that the Niu family was quite wealthy. They had many military exploits, many rewards from the emperor, and many properties to their name.

It's a pity that there are more places to spend money. No wonder the military commanders' families are not very wealthy.

"So I would like to thank my aunt on behalf of the families of those soldiers. Don't worry, all the money will fall on them, so that as many people as possible can benefit. I also want to accumulate blessings for my little nephew."

Mrs. Yuan was very happy and gave some trinkets to Cheng Erniang's little girl. Because Cheng Xiaosi had a big belly and the little girl was very active, Cheng Erniang didn't bring her. After returning to the house, he told Mrs. Niu about getting fifteen thousand taels of silver from the Yuan family, and recounted Mrs. Yuan's story again. Mrs. Niu smiled and said: "Since they spent this money to feel at ease, then you don't have to You’re welcome, your father-in-law said that with this year’s situation, I’m afraid that next year’s military pay will not be allocated in full. There has been no war in the past two years and little income. Many people are having a hard time.”

"And for those kids, it would be good to open a school for them to learn some skills."

Fifteen thousand taels, not to mention ordinary people, it is not easy for even the noble families in the city to easily take it out. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Yuan family are really rich and powerful. "With this money, we can also breathe a sigh of relief."

It’s not easy to find people who are willing to donate money if they have money.

General Niu learned about this that night, and he felt a little complicated. Even if the money from the court was donated, it was for ordinary people. He never felt that the soldiers in the army were in hardship, and he didn't think about the huge military pay. How much money does each person have?
Even if you can't get all the money, why would they work for you if you don't give them money? It's just generals like them who have to look for money everywhere.

In fact, he wanted to talk to Cheng Daqi several times. After all, his in-laws were so rich, but every time the words came to his lips, he couldn't say it. After all, he was still not thick-skinned enough. If it were his father, all the money he wanted would be spent.

"Everyone has only seen Yuan Wu's absurdity over the years, but they have not seen that he has made a lot of money. Tomorrow."

After hesitating for a moment, he said, "I'll go have a drink with Uncle Shunyi tomorrow."

He was prepared to risk his life and open his mouth, which was better than being miserable.

Mrs. Niu nodded and was thinking of giving some return gift to the Yuan family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. They said it was a donation, but it also helped them a lot.

Just as Cheng Xiaosi thought, Yuan Su didn't care at all about her giving away 10,000 taels. He only cared about whether she was having a good day and whether the baby in her belly was good, and then told her the ticket number prepared by the trading bank. It is almost ready to open in the spring next year. At this time, some regulations are still being formulated.

The trading house has great power, so much so that all ticket numbers on the market must be handled according to the regulations set by the trading house. At the end of the year, Cheng Daqi was very busy, and many things fell on Yuan Su, so he had no time to spare.

For this reason, Li Yuanhao led a group of noble men to block Yuan Su once, and they agreed to drink all the world's fine wines and visit flower houses all over the world. He actually worked hard behind everyone's back, making these people even more dandy, and they were not happy at all. It was hard, especially for Li Yuanhao, who was beaten by his father again.

The days passed quickly in the busy schedule. Cheng Xiaosi’s belly didn’t change much in the first few months. Even the bulge was not very big. In the sixth month, it started to get bigger day by day. Grandma Fang said It is said that the child's bones have grown and now he is about to grow flesh.

Winter is here, and the flavor of the New Year in the city is getting stronger. Regardless of whether it is affected by a disaster or not, everyone has different expectations for the New Year. It seems that after this year, all the bad things will go away. Whether you have money or not, you will come to visit. Browse the New Year shopping mall.

This year's market is different from previous years. In previous years, rich people didn't bother to save that little money. This year, the emperor harvested it first. The drought affected all the villages, and it rained continuously for a month. I almost destroyed the little grain in the field, and I will most likely have to buy grain next year.

At the end of the year, the expenses are huge. New Year's gifts are exchanged between various families. The master's clothes and jewelry, and the servants' clothes are rewarded with money. The ladies in charge can only focus on the huge discounts on the New Year's goods, and save whatever they can.

As a result, items sold out very quickly at the New Year goods fair, especially the cheap and solid fabrics, were the first to be sold out. The snacks and dried fruits that sold well in the past were slow to sell this year.
