Traveling to Daliang Kingdom starts from falling into the water

He also told me not to show off outside and not to be too cocky. But here I was, standing at the gate with my son, looking up at the two stone pillars erected by our son who passed the imperial examination.

Mrs. Li didn't see her mistress and eldest son come in from afar. When they came out, she thought to herself, but she was afraid that she had misunderstood the child's father, so she looked around again.

——That group of old people, adults and children are missing!

This is not the child's father deliberately showing off to that bunch of people.

Li walked down the steps in front of the door in three steps at a time, and quickly came to Zhou Sishun and said, "Dad, our San Ya gave me the banknote."

Zhou Sishun turned around and laughed.

Li was startled.

Shouldn't I frown and ask why she accepted money from the child again?
"Mom." Dajiang bowed, "My father guessed it."

"Is it the New Year's money for Dajiang and Xiaohe?" Zhou Sishun shook his head and smiled. It would be rare if you could tell her immediately if it was the silver note given to you by San Ya!

His San Ya might have wanted to secretly give silver and banknotes to her mother in the past, but now Da Jiang is getting engaged and must be thinking about preparing the betrothal gifts, so how could she dare to secretly give it to her mother without telling him.

Not to mention his San Ya, even he himself suspected that he had heard the message wrongly. Brother Qi would choose Dajiang as his son-in-law, and it would be unacceptable to give too little betrothal gift.

It would be fine if the Zhao family chose his daughter Dajiang as their son-in-law. Everyone in the whole county knows his family background, and if the betrothal gifts are not enough, the daughter-in-law will not be embarrassed.

But if it's Brother Qi's daughter, just like what my in-laws said yesterday, the betrothal gift is too little, Brother Qi doesn't care, but Huijie will feel wronged.

The Qi Mansion doesn't only have Hui Jie'er as its daughter. There are also daughters from the first, second, and fourth rooms. The betrothal gift for the third room's legitimate daughter is even less than those for the other three concubines' daughters. It's like a slap in the face.

Yes.

Since the child's uncle dared to let the child marry the daughter of the Qi family, he would prepare a betrothal gift for the child, but does the child's uncle owe him this second brother whom he recognized halfway?
No matter how thick-skinned a person is, he would not do this. If his third daughter had not been taught and protected by his eldest sister in the Gao Mansion, she would not be where she is today. He, Zhou Changshun, owes a great debt of gratitude to his eldest sister and eldest brother!
Besides, there is not only Dajiang in the family, there is also the younger one. Even if we can help the younger one marry Baoya, the betrothal gift alone cannot be too different.

It seems that Changgen needs to think carefully about opening a kiln. It would be bad to let San Ya worry about everything. It is better to make some money while there is still room for maneuver.

Fortunately, things are different now than before.

Now that they want to open a brick kiln, San Ya is at home and the Gao family can no longer interfere. The government office here will also give them face, but they will have to use the money given by San Ya.

If he makes money, it would be fine, as he could help San Ya hide more family assets as a backup. If he loses money, Changgen is not a brainless person, so the loss should not be too big.

Let's try a small brick kiln first. If the bricks can't be sold, we can just build our own house. It seems that if we want to do this, we have to discuss it with San Ya and our brother-in-law first.

But if I want to open a brick kiln, how should I tell San Ya?

If San Ya knew that her father worked as a laborer in a brick kiln two years ago, she would definitely be furious!
It's not good to say that I work just to learn how to make bricks...

"Dad, why don't you say anything after entering the room?" Li was quite curious and put her face close to Zhou Sishun's eyes. "Don't you want the banknotes? What are you thinking about?"

"Bring it!"

Li covered her belt and said, "I'll give it to the child myself." "How can I swallow the child's New Year's money?" Zhou Sishun rolled his eyes at his wife, "I just took a look at the amount of silver on the banknote."

"One hundred taels, both are one hundred taels of silver. Even if San Ya didn't say this number, I would know it. I said it was too much, but San Ya said it wasn't much.

I also said that we should not give it to Xiaohe or Dajiang anymore, since he is so old, we should stop giving him New Year's money. Sanya said that her brother is still a child until he gets married."

At this point, Li laughed out loud, "San Ya said that Da Jiang did not forget to take a day off after getting the rice and silver this year to buy gifts for her sister. She originally wanted to give her brother more New Year's money this year, but after thinking about it, she decided not to. Money will be needed for everything when getting engaged and getting married, so she saved it first and gave it to her brother as pocket money."

I've arranged the marriages for both of your sons, but you won't be happy!

I'm biased towards you!

Zhou Sishun couldn't stand seeing his wife being so complacent and stupid. If today wasn't New Year's Eve, he would have said a few words to the mother.

"Our San Ya said that after her baby is born, she will be free. It happens to be April or May, and there is not much work on the fields after the spring plowing. It is just the right time to ask her uncle Chang Gen to build a house.

Dad, Sanya still wants us to move to her great-grandfather's place. Sanya said that it's fine for our family to live here and be similar to everyone else.

Now we have fields and shops, so we have some wealth, but the gap between us and everyone else is huge. No matter how kind our neighbors are, can we not be as friendly as we can?

No matter how happy everyone is for our family, some people will inevitably be jealous in the long run. It is better to move to the end of the village as soon as possible while it is good for you, me and everyone else.

Living at the end of the village, close to her side, it's convenient to go back and forth. Even if there are people coming to visit by carriage from time to time, it's still convenient. It's not like this side where everyone knows as soon as someone comes to visit.

Her great-grandfather's house is next to her, so she can have more guards patrol there at night. Otherwise, Dajiang lives in the county school, and if you go out one day, she won't be able to sleep well at home..."

It's a tiger, right?
San Ya is afraid that I won't agree to build that side as soon as possible, so she's making up excuses to coax you. What's closer to her side? How far can this side be from her?

As soon as someone comes to the door, we will know about it. If we know it, we will know it. It's not something shameful. I don't know how much money it will cost to build on that piece of land!
Dajiang lives in the county school. He is going out and will not be at home. What he meant is that after the first month of the lunar year, the Qi brothers will either go back on their word or make up their mind to go studying abroad with Dajiang.

If the matter is really to be settled, there is no rush to prepare the betrothal gifts and send them to the capital, but the person still has to go to the capital in person to propose marriage. Even if he goes there, can he go alone?

As for proposing marriage in person, even if Dajiang and his third brother cannot make it to the capital, the child's mother must go with them. Then Xiaohe will live in his third sister's house. Is he still afraid of thieves coming to the door?

His San Ya tried so hard to get him to agree to build the house earlier. Not only did she coax her mother, she also scared her mother. What a loser, bah, this child!

"...We still have the housekeeper at home, so why should I be afraid? Who else would dare to sneak into my house in the middle of the night? San Ya said she would be prepared for the worst.

You asked why our San Ya was so timid, and I told her how nice it was to live here, with people living around us, and everyone could hear her if she shouted. Only then did she stop bothering me.

However, I think after hearing what I said, San Ya will definitely make up her mind to let you live in a big house. If she doesn't listen to me later, you can't blame me.

Father of my child, you said that our San Ya is anxious to build a big house and move over there. Has she fallen in love with a girl and is worried that this place is too small and it will be difficult for Dajiang to propose marriage?

What are you laughing at? Dajiang is embarrassed to say it, but Sanya will not hide it from you. I said that when I talked about Dajiang's marriage this time, Sanya's tone was different! "(End of this chapter)
