Wang and Qin Liuxi returned to the main room and sat down. She first handed over the long box in her hand.
"It's a haircut gift from your grandmother. You don't like it, so wear it for fun."
Qin Liuxi opened it and saw a green dragonfly inside, so he picked it up and played with it, then put it in the half-twisted bun on his head and tilted his head: "Do you like it, mother?"
"It looks good." Mrs. Wang was very happy and said with an angry smile: "Even in this step, it's not like this. You have to put your hair up into a bun to make it easier to insert. Now it's easy to lose it."
Qin Liuxi said: "I usually only tie my hair in a bun, but I don't know how to comb it complicatedly. It's too time-consuming."
"It would be a pity for a girl of your age not to dress up. How can there be a girl who doesn't like to be pretty?" Wang said angrily, "Also, let's get married in the future..."
She paused and seemed to realize that it was not appropriate to say this now, so she took out the money and things sent by her mother, pushed it in front of Qin Liuxi, and said, "This is the money your grandmother asked the Zhang family to send." Items are for emergencies. I was thinking about whether the small farm my family bought before was a bit shallow. As the children grow older, the expenses will be greater, and they have to get married, which will cost even more money, so I still have to do something more. make a living."
Mrs. Wang rested one hand on the small table, stretched out her fingers to fiddle with the gold ornaments in the box, and said: "Of the two thousand taels of silver notes, I plan to transfer the one thousand two hundred taels to the public house, whether it is to buy land or rent a shop. No matter what kind of business you make, you have to use it to find ways to survive."
"One thousand two hundred taels?" Qin Liuxi raised his eyebrows. This is quite generous, but it's more than half.
Mrs. Wang said: "Although this is money sent by my mother's family, it is a good marriage. It is a support, that is, when someone has trouble, he relies on his in-laws to help him. Your grandmother and grandfather are still alive, and the Qin family Since the family has not been divided, all the money cannot go into the small family, and some must be used to cope with the current difficulties. This is also the general and overall view that a matron needs to show. "
Qin Liuxi understood that this was Wang's way of teaching her the human principles of doing things in the backyard. Although she didn't care about Zhongfu's trivial matters, she could only listen quietly at this time.
"One thousand two hundred taels will be transferred to the public, and the rest will be saved as the owner of the big house and do some other business. I think, Yan'er is not here now, and you are the biggest in our house. This money How about giving it to you and making a living using your name? No matter what happens in the future, it will be a small dowry."
Qin Liuxi was surprised: "Give it to me? What will happen to the second brother and Xiao Wu in the future? They are the men in charge?"
"Yan'er, now, being able to live peacefully there is my greatest comfort, and I don't dare to expect anything. As for Xiao Wu, if he is outstanding, you can give him the responsibility. If not, then he will still be Don't be a prodigal. It's not bad to be a wealthy Tian family man by relying on the support of your family." Wang said calmly: "When they can get married and have children later, they will see if their grandchildren have malleable talents and choose. If he comes out and is well cultivated, he might be able to get up again."
When Qin Liuxi heard this, he knew that she had thought it through carefully, and he admired her courage to take it up and let it go.
She glanced at the banknotes and gold jewelry in the box, reached out to flick them around, and said, "If mother trusts me, then just follow mother. I can't do business and run a shop, so I'll just take on this name. Mother has to take care of the other trivial matters. You used to own a dowry shop, didn’t you?"
Mrs. Wang, who was just happy that she could be a hands-off shopkeeper: "..."
The abacus doesn’t seem to work?
