Yunshi hurriedly covered her mouth, and then let go after a while, and asked tremblingly: "Manshou, tell me again, how much did you earn today?"

This time, Yun's voice was so low that only a few of them could hear it.

"Mother, it's five thousand 210 taels." Man Shou said again.

When Bo Dinghai and the others heard this number just now, they were quite frightened. It is no wonder that Yun's reaction was like this.

"So much?!" Yun asked in a daze.

I sold so much money for the first time fishing, will there be more in the future?
Yun Shi was surprised and delighted, and it took a while to recover from this huge surprise.

"My son's father, with this money, Manfeng and Manshou don't have to worry about getting married anymore." Yun's was ecstatic.

Since agreeing to her daughter's reconciliation, Yun has another level of worry, that is, her daughter and empress will have a bad reputation. Yun is worried that the marriage of the two sons will be affected because of this, but she is afraid of increasing her daughter's psychological burden, so I dare not express my worries.

Yun didn't think as much as Bai Dinghai and his son. Man Feng was rejected because of Bai Dinghai's leg injury. Lost a lot of weight.

But now, with such a large sum of money, she didn't believe that the two sons would not be able to find a good girl. When the new house was built next year, a matchmaker would definitely come to her.

Hearing Yun's words, Bai Meisha's expression darkened, and she blamed herself: "It's all my fault. If it wasn't for me, no one would come to Manfeng and Manshou to say goodbye."

Meisha wanted to leave the Zhang family very much, but if she and Li wanted to drag the two younger brothers down, then this matter would have to be delayed for a while, at least until Manfeng and Manshou got married before talking about reconciling and leaving.

"Sister, it's none of your business!" Man Feng and Man Shou said at the same time.

Bai Dinghai also couldn't see his daughter's appearance, so he paused, and said solemnly: "Mesha, you didn't have a good time in the Zhang family before, so there are some things that your parents didn't tell you, in fact, Manfeng told you a while ago. It's a family marriage, but something happened to me before I got hired. The girl was afraid of coming and suffering and refused to marry. After that, no one came to Manfeng and Manshou to say goodbye, so this matter has nothing to do with you. Now Dad's My legs are healed, and life at home is getting better, and a matchmaker should come to the door after the Chinese New Year."

Bai Meisha was taken aback, and asked: "Father, is what you said true, Manfeng was rejected for marriage?"

She didn't hear anything about this matter, but when she suddenly heard that her younger brother was rejected for marriage, Meisha suddenly felt very sad, her younger brother is so good, why was he rejected for marriage?
Seeing that Meisha was sad for him, Manfeng said with a straight face: "Sister, I don't care for such a woman!"

"That's right, Beibei is right. It's right not to be a woman who can only share weal and woe. Sister, you don't have to worry about us. We will definitely marry a wife." Man Shou also comforted her confidently. .

"Meisha, you are now sitting in the moon, don't be too sad, Manfeng and Manshou have parents, you just need to rest well." Yun urged her again, worried that her daughter's illness would be caused if she didn't sit well in the moon.

Meisha was very sad and angry when Manfeng was rejected, but it was not because of her, she felt better.

Yun's heard from her husband that Beibei had to deposit the huge sum of money in the bank, and she also felt that it was safer to do so. During this time, the family has already saved a small sum of money, which is more than enough for building a new house and food and clothing. It is better to save a huge sum of money in the bank.

At the same time, Feng Shi was putting some food into cloth bags.

Bo Beibei asked suspiciously: "Mother, who are you going to send these meals to?"

Feng Shi smiled and said, "Did you forget? You haven't sent New Year's gifts to your grandparents and uncle yet."

Hearing this, it was only then that Bo Beibei realized that at this time of the past, my mother would also ask someone to give grandparents New Year's gifts. Although there are not many things, they will not be left behind for a year.

There is a small escort agency in the town, which escorts some goods for the businessmen in the town on weekdays. At the end of the year, in order to facilitate these ordinary people, the escort agency will specially select a few people to deliver annual gifts to those who are far away and inconvenient to travel. The fee is also cheap, very popular with everyone.

"In previous years, I gave them some dried fish during Chinese New Year. This year, when our family is getting better, we will give them more food." Feng Shi said while putting the food into cloth bags.

Watching her mother put a small bag of flour, a bag of rice, meat, marinated chicken, and even eggs into the cloth bag, Bai Beibei was a little speechless, and hurriedly said: "Mother, just send some medicinal materials and supplements if you want to send them over. Forget about eating, since the journey is so far, why don’t you send some silver taels and let grandpa and grandma buy it themselves.”

The medicines and supplements sent by shopkeeper Sun and Duan Xin are all excellent things, some of which are not even available for money, so it is reasonable to send them over. However, white flour and rice can be bought anywhere, so it is more convenient than giving them money.

Feng's hand paused, and he said as if waking up from a dream: "Yeah, why didn't I think of this level?"

Bo Beibei's phoenix eyes moved, and she asked tentatively: "Mom, why don't we go see grandpa and grandma together after the Chinese New Year?"

Bo Beibei wanted to visit her grandparents, uncles and aunts whom she had never met, so she stopped by Yuxi County.

Feng Shi smiled and said: "I plan to take your grandparents over for a while when your brother gets married next year."

Parents are worried about her, and when the new house is built next year and the son gets married, they will let parents come and enjoy the happiness.

Bai Beibei smiled. It turned out that her mother had planned it a long time ago, and she was worried that her mother would miss her grandparents too much, but it would be nice to take over and live here, as the house would be more lively.

"Mother, when will the Escort send these things to Yuxi County?" Bai Beibei asked again.

"It depends on when the people from the Escort leave. If they can leave tomorrow, they can be delivered on New Year's Eve. If they leave the day after tomorrow, it will be the first day of the new year."

The people in the Escort Bureau are all on top of their horses, and it would take six or seven days to get there if they took a carriage.

Bai Beibei nodded thoughtfully.

The next day was the twenty-eighth day of the Lunar New Year, and before dawn, Bai Manchuan sent the medicinal materials and 100 taels of bank notes to the escort agency in the town.

After breakfast, Mrs. Feng started to put food in a small cloth bag again. This time it was sent to Yuzhu's family. The two families are relatives by marriage. According to the custom here, the man will give them the New Year's gift before the year .

The annual gifts for Yuzhu's family are different from those for her mother's family. Feng's annual gifts for Yuzhu's family are a few catties of flour, two catties of sugar, a piece of meat, a small bag of tea and two pieces of mackerel.

Such an annual gift is considered decent enough in a fishing village. Yuzhu's parents were all smiles when they saw such an annual ceremony.
