I was the richest man in ancient times

Chapter 95
"Father, don't be sad."

Cheng Yue patted Cheng Shun's back lightly.

"Fat girl, I don't know what happened to you when you were playing crazy outside, or because of your natural good cooking skills, but I want to ask you to do my father a favor."

Cheng Shun wiped away his tears and said seriously.

Cheng Yue suddenly felt that her father had aged several years in an instant, as if his back had become a little bent.

"Father, I'm your daughter, do we still say between father and daughter whether to help or not? If you have any orders, just tell me, as a daughter, I can do what I can. All these years, my father and mother have spoiled me so much. , made me the envy of every girl in the village, so I should naturally do something for the family."

Cheng Yue said.

"Good boy, dad doesn't want you to cook too much. Yesterday you said that your elder brother can quickly learn the taste of your cooking, so can you teach your elder brother more? Your elder brother is the eldest son, because he was sick when he was young, which caused his It's different from normal people. I want to say, if you can, you can teach your elder brother more, so that he has a skill, even if his head is not good, but with your sister-in-law watching, I don't worry too much. "

Cheng Shun said.

"Father, I want to do this even if you don't tell me. Dad, don't you know that I'm lazy? I don't want to do things that my elder brother can do alone!"

Cheng Yue tried her best to speak playfully so that the atmosphere would not be so heavy.

"That's good, that's good. I'm already sorry for your grandfather, but I can't be sorry for your elder brother. Your second brother, I have already found him a stable job. What will happen to him in the future, he will have to fight it himself. Dad I also prepared a dowry for you, our land will give you [-] acres as a dowry, and the money at the bottom of the box is also prepared for you..."

Cheng Shun said a lot, Cheng Yue was a little unclear what he was going to say, it was already daylight, so she interrupted Cheng Shun's words.

"Father, let's not talk about this first, tell me what you think in your heart."

After Cheng Yue finished speaking, she suddenly felt that she knew what her father was going to say.

"This,..., Fatty, I, um, that,..."

Cheng Shun hesitated, unable to speak.

"Father, do you want me to work hard with my elder brother and sister-in-law to earn back all of our grandfather's original family fortune?"

A light flashed in Cheng Yue's mind, and he completely understood what Cheng Shun meant.

Cheng Shun froze for a moment, then bowed his head in embarrassment.

Like a little kid who did something wrong.

In fact, he felt that it was wrong for a father to make such a request to his daughter.

But after going through this month, and with what Cheng Yue said yesterday, he felt that if he could earn back his father's family property, there was really hope for his daughter.

Of course, he is also very confident in his eldest grandson, but the road to the imperial examination is too long, and he doesn't know if he can wait for it.

Poor scholar Poor scholar, even if Cheng Jinyan is admitted to the scholar next month, he still has to go through a lot, and the family's expenses will be even greater.

Even if the eldest grandson becomes an official in the end, he may not be able to earn so much all at once, at least he can only have this ability after working hard in the officialdom for several years.

Seeing Cheng Shun like this, Cheng Yue smiled and said, "Father, I said so, don't worry, my eldest brother and sister-in-law and I will work hard. By the way, Dad, my uncle hasn't come for you for decades. a letter?"
