Yu Zhi was very worried, where to put so much gold? There is a cellar at home, the kind used to store winter vegetables, not to mention the small ones, and the opening is not hidden, so it is not suitable for storing valuables at all.
Want to dig one now? Yu Zhi said that she really couldn't.
invite? She has lived in Pomegranate Alley for three years, and everyone knows that her family suddenly hired someone to dig a cellar. What is this for? Hiding money? Even if she said it was used to store winter vegetables, no one would believe it!
Her family is small in population, plus two maids, there are only four people, one of them is a child, and the three adults are all women, how much food can they eat? Are two cellars necessary?
Rather than attract prying eyes from others, forget about the cellar. Yu Zhi vacated a side room, and moved all the gold in the small green space into it, a total of forty-six large boxes, and she was too lazy to count the exact number of taels.
Lock the door, well, that's it. She doesn't believe that there are still people who dare to come to her house to steal things?
Yu Zhi leaned on the recliner and read the scripts. He was away for a month, and several new scripts were released in the bookstore. The girls Shiliu and Lianwu knew that she liked to watch it, so they bought it for her yesterday.
Eating fruit, reading a storybook, and messing around with the little boy and the big dog, these are her favorite days.
"Dong Yu's family, is Dong Dong's family at home?" Someone shouted outside the door.
Mother and son plus a dog, all looked towards the door.
Yu Zhi heard who it was, and was very surprised. Why did she come?
"At home, the door is unlocked, just come in." Yu Zhi said, sitting up from the reclining chair.
A woman in her thirties opened the door and came in with a smile on her face, "I heard you were back yesterday, but I still didn't believe it. I didn't expect you to come back."
"I've only been back for two days, but I haven't seen Mrs. Zhao for a few days. What are you busy with? It looks like you've lost a lot." Not only did she lose a lot, but her complexion is also not very good.
Sister-in-law Zhao is the daughter-in-law of Wang Butou, her maiden name is Zhao, and her family runs a grain store. Sister-in-law Zhao is the eldest daughter in the family. She can run the shop by herself in her early ten years. She can speak well, loves to talk and laugh, and can do things well. Otherwise, could he fall into the eyes of Catcher Wang?
Yu Zhi has dealt with her a few times, and has a good impression of her, but if you say she is familiar, she is not really close. She is more familiar with Wang Butou.
This is also the reason why Yu Zhi was surprised before, if she went to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, she must have something.
Hearing her say this, Sister-in-law Zhao acted as if she had found a bosom friend, "What can you do? Isn't it about the **** at home? Dong Yu's family is not an outsider, so I'm not afraid of your jokes. My mother-in-law came to live at my house and was sick. It's been a month, and I've been serving her day and night, can I not pay off?"
"I remember your mother-in-law followed your uncle, right? Why did he come to your house and he didn't want to raise her?" Yu Zhi looked gossip.
The Wang family is a big family in Ancheng, and Wang Butou is a side branch. It's no secret about his family in Ancheng. There are only two brothers in his family, and there is a younger brother who is ten years younger than him. People in the world value the eldest son, and the eldest son takes care of his parents. Of course, when the family is divided, the eldest son of the family property also takes the bulk.
The parents of the Wang family favored the youngest son. When the family was divided, they not only divided the family property equally, but also gave the ancestral home to the youngest son, saying that they wanted to follow the youngest son and let the youngest son take care of him.
The family persuaded, but did not persuade. Fortunately, Catcher Wang was a shrewd person, so he asked the family to write a document. It wasn't that he didn't want to support his parents, but that his parents didn't want to follow him. Filial and filial, as a son of man, shouldn't he obey his parents' wishes?
Sister-in-law Zhao sighed, "She came here by herself. She said that my house is spacious and close to the medical center, so it is convenient to get a pulse and take medicine. She is an elder, and we are juniors. No matter how much she has, we have to be filial to her." .Especially my old Wang is working in the yamen, if something happens, it won't affect well."
For so many years, her mother-in-law has often come to her house to ask for money and things, and when she turns around, she gives it to her uncle. Because of this, she has become very idle.
What can be done? Boil it! She is still young, so she can always survive her mother-in-law, right?
It's hard for an upright official to break up housework, so Yu Zhi couldn't say anything, so he just said: "Then you have to take care of your health, if you're really too busy, just ask someone to help, it won't cost much money."
It stands to reason that Wang Butou has an errand in the yamen, and Mrs. Zhao is capable, so the family should live a relaxed life. However, sister-in-law Zhao was able to give birth to six children, five sons and one daughter.
Half-year-old, poor old man, and have to worry about the children's marriage, five daughters-in-law married into the door, not enough to spend all the money. How dare sister-in-law Zhao let go?
Even though there is no man in Dong Yu's family, he is capable, runs a shop, and has no worries about food and clothing. Like the fruits on the table, she might not be willing to eat them once a year, but Yu Dong's family can eat them openly.
I didn’t even look at Dong Yu’s family but only had one son, but that child is good-looking and has a smart face. Even her family’s old Wang praised that he will be promising when he grows up.
The key is that Yu Dong's family is still beautiful, even if she is a widow with a child, there are many people who miss her. Today she is entrusted by others.
Yu Zhi smiled, "I'm still envious of the bustle of my sister-in-law's house. Five sons will marry you into a fifth-room daughter-in-law in the future. You, just wait and enjoy the happiness."
"Don't dare to think, don't dare to think." Sister-in-law Zhao said that she didn't dare, but the smile on her face couldn't be hidden from anyone. The most proud thing in her life is that she gave birth to five sons for the head of the family. Don't look at her old Wang who has five people and six people outside, but he dare not say a harsh word to her when he comes home. She has five sons.
There is only one son in Dong Yu's family, which is too little. Thinking of the purpose of coming, Mrs. Zhao said: "Boss Yu, I really have something to do here today, that is, someone asked me to ask, it is really hard for you as a woman with a child, you should find a man. Sister-in-law will tell you To tell the truth, we women, how can we leave a man? Especially Yu Dong's family, you are such an outstanding talent, what are your plans in the future?" She looked at Yu Zhi's face and asked tentatively.
Yu Zhi understood, Mrs. Zhao came to marry her. She wanted to say that she didn't work hard at all, and it didn't matter if she had a man or not.
That is, when she first came to Ancheng, someone came to her door and offered her a kiss. After she rejected it a few times, it never happened again. After three years, why did it happen again?
"Which company?" Yu Zhi was rather curious.
"The Yue family."
Yu Zhi frowned, "Is it the meaning of the Yue family, or the meaning of Yue Wuye?" Didn't she already refuse it? Why haven't you given up yet?
"It's Fifth Master Yue. He asked me to ask what Dong's family means." She came here without telling the owner of the house. . But she thinks that Yue Wuye is quite good. If he has good looks and talent, isn't he a little bit romantic? Man, this is not a big problem, it will be changed after marriage, he is still married for the first time, so why is he not good enough for Boss Yu's family?
Yue Yunqi? What the **** is this guy doing? Didn't he already know what she meant?
"Fifth Master Yue, I told him three years ago that it's not suitable. It's hard work for Mrs. Zhao to make this trip." Yu Zhi directly refused.
Sister-in-law Zhao didn't expect her to refuse so simply, "You don't think about it anymore? Yue Wuye is such a good person, there is no such shop after this village." She tried to persuade.
Yu Zhi shook his head, "Don't think about it, it's really inappropriate, sister-in-law Zhao, please reject it for me."
"Why isn't it suitable? Fifth Master Yue has a good background and a great reputation. If you follow him, you might be able to become an official wife. And he is so handsome. He is the only one in Ancheng."
"I don't like handsome ones, I just like ordinary-looking ones. They are so good-looking that they are always messed with... grass." Seeing Wen Jiuxiao who suddenly appeared, Yu Zhi stammered.
Wen Jiuxiao arrived early, and heard Yu Zhi talking to a woman from a long distance away, so he stood outside the door and listened. Hearing that this woman kept persuading her to marry someone else, he couldn't bear it anymore.
"Here we come." Yu Zhi greeted lightly.
Wen Jiuxiao hummed, his eyes fell on the woman sitting on the small bench, he saw her stiffly before he lifted his feet and walked into the room.
When he entered the room and was out of sight, Mrs. Zhao breathed a sigh of relief, and asked in a low voice, "Who is this?" Damn, those eyes are too scary, cold, as if she was about to kill her.
Yu Zhi said: "Zhou Zhou's father."
If Sister-in-law Zhao was struck by lightning, would she dare to love Yu Dong's family for a man? No wonder he glared at her. You said what did she do, Mrs. Zhao's expression was awkward, and she couldn't help asking, "What does he do?"
"Young Minister of Dali Temple." Seeing that Zhao's sister-in-law didn't understand, she added, "Fourth grade Beijing official."
Sister-in-law Zhao took a deep breath, glanced into the room, and couldn't sit still, "Then what, Boss Yu, just pretend that I didn't say anything, and I have something to do at home, so I'll go first."
He left as if fleeing.
Sipin, my mother, how high an official must this be? No wonder her heart trembled when he looked at her. The head of the family was right, so she didn't dare to meddle in other people's business.
Yu Zhi smiled unkindly.
