The Song family is in the next village, not far away.
The news of Su Yu's return yesterday must have spread over there.
What Liu said was not without any basis.
After the Song family learned about this, they would definitely come to see the fun.
The engagement must have been broken, and the people over there would have to gloat about Su Yu's failure.
So it is better to keep a low profile and wait for a while with our tail between our legs.
It just so happens that the two families don't have to pay anything.
But Su Yu remembered that he hadn't told Gu Changle about this before.
She suddenly heard that her husband had been engaged to someone else, and she didn't know if she would mind.
Su Yu glanced at Gu Changle.
Su Yongchang and others also looked over, but what they had in mind was different from Su Yu's.
"Niece-in-law, what do you think?"
This niece-in-law is from Fucheng, and her family still values her very highly.
Su Yongchang even asked her opinion.
Gu Changle didn't understand Su Yu's eyes, so he just smiled and replied to Su Yongchang: "I can do it, just listen to my husband."
The two brothers Su Yongchang and Su Yongqiang were very satisfied with the attitude of their niece-in-law.
People from Fucheng are good-looking and obey their nephew's words.
Isn't such a daughter-in-law much better than the Song family's daughter?
Su Yongchang said: "Then do it as I said before and do it better."
When Mrs. Liu heard this, she quickly said: "It can be done, but we have agreed in advance that my family really has no money to spare."
Su Yu withdrew his eyes and said with a smile, "I don't need your uncle and uncle to pay for the money."
"I got some money in Fucheng, so I can still hold a banquet in the village."
"I just don't know how much it will cost, and I don't know if I have enough money."
"You made money in Fucheng?" Su Yongchang was a little surprised.
People who are rushing to take exams can still find time to make money?
"Yeah." Su Yu explained, "I have to wait for the results in Fucheng after I finish the exam."
"I took advantage of this time and sold two poems I wrote."
Su Yongqiang and the others were all farmers, and they never thought that their poems could be sold for money.
Everyone was surprised when they heard Su Yu talk about this.
Su Yongqiang asked: "Can poems still be sold? How much did they cost?"
Su Yu said: "One poem was sold for five taels of silver."
"Five taels of silver!"
Su Yongqiang opened his mouth and was shocked by the number.
Their family worked so hard that apart from a year's worth of food, they couldn't save enough money.
Su Yu sold just one poem for so much money?
Mrs. Liu looked at him in disbelief: "Is it true?"
Gu Changle said calmly: "Of course it is true."
"You don't know these things in the village."
"The poem my husband wrote was sold to his classmates in the city. This poem will be used at the prefect's banquet."
"Fifty taels of silver a piece, nothing surprising."
As soon as Mrs. Liu entered the door, she looked at Gu Changle up and down, as if looking at something.
The tone of what he just said was not good either.
When Gu Changle heard her doubts, he subconsciously spoke out in defense.
After finishing speaking, she glanced at Su Yu.
I happened to bump into him and looked over with a smile on my face, and there seemed to be admiration in his eyes.
Gu Changle looked away and suddenly felt a little hot on his face.
Is this actually true?
A poem costs five taels of silver. If you sell a few more poems, wouldn’t that mean you’ll make a fortune?
Mrs. Liu immediately ignored what Gu Changle said and said, "Since this poem is so valuable, Yuzai, why didn't you sell it earlier?"
"It's the same now. We all know that we can sell it for money, so we won't sell more songs."
"If you make more money, you can come back to Fucheng with a souvenir for us."
Su Yongqiang frowned, feeling that something was wrong with what his mother-in-law said.
But he couldn't tell.
Su Yu knew that Mrs. Liu had always had objections to him, but it was also his fault for not living up to expectations.
He simply explained: "I sell poems of thanksgiving."
"There are not many people who can use this kind of poetry, and it takes time to write a poem."
Su Yu didn't need much time, after all, he could just use it.
But it must be done according to normal procedures.
Although Su Yu explained the difficulty of making money, Su Yongchang still had a smile on his face.
"Promising!"
"No wonder everyone says that scholars are promising, isn't it?"
“The money we make just once is enough to cover the cost of working in the fields for a year.”
"Five taels of silver is enough."
"Throw a nice banquet and buy some new clothes for the two of you. It will cost about twenty taels of silver in total."
"You can keep the remaining three taels of silver for household use later."
Su Yongchang was so happy that Su Yu made money from the books he read, his dark face glowed red.
Su Yongqiang also smiled and kept praising Su Yu.
Mrs. Liu watched from the side and rolled her eyes.
If she can earn so much money from studying, she will have to send her son to school next year!
Isn't it right to use the money spent on Su Yu to give his son to study, and the money he will earn in the future will belong to his family?
When Ms. Liu thought about it, her eyes couldn't help but shine.
She directly ignored the many scholars she knew who had no future in their studies and had to go home to work in the fields.
People in the room have different thoughts, but they can still be considered happy.
After Su Yongchang and Su Yongqiang finalized Su Yu's affairs, they left happily and prepared things for Su Yu to hold a banquet.
Su Yu sent the person outside the fence gate.
Su Yongchang and others were about to leave when suddenly a villager ran over in a hurry on the other side of the road.
"Ah Qi, you are here just in time."
Su Yongchang ranks seventh among his peers in the village, and his elders and peers call him Ah Qi.
"You have something to do with me? Why don't you go to my house and tell me?"
The person had already run over, panting and waving his hands.
"Not looking for you."
"Song Laogen from the next village came with someone, probably looking for Su Yu."
"Song Laogen is here?"
As soon as Su Yongchang heard that this family was coming the day after Su Yu returned home, he immediately thought of the purpose of their trip.
It was just because they heard that Su Yu failed the exam and brought a young lady back to break the engagement and ridicule him.
He and Su Yongqiang had smiles on their faces because they were discussing Su Yu's banquet.
Now they are all falling apart.
Su Yongchang straightened up and said to his son: "Go and ask the village chief and uncle from the village to come over."
"By the way, go and ask a few more familiar people to come over."
"I wonder if the Song family dares to say unpleasant words when they come to visit today."
Su Fangyuan nodded quickly and left with a serious expression.
When Su Yongchang called so many people over, it sounded like he was trying to calm down the situation.
With such an arrangement, he always felt like he would roll up his sleeves and start a fight with the Song family at any time.
Is this really going to start a fight?
Gu Changle sneaked up to Su Yu and asked in a low voice, "Are you going to fight?"
It’s true.
There were many people protecting her around the village.
Moreover, Gu Changle had stayed in the military camp with his grandfather when he was a child, and he also had some martial arts skills.
As long as Su Yu needs it, Gu Changle is still happy to help.
From yesterday to today, there are so many things.
The days in this village are much more lively than those in the city.
"Fight? Of course not..."
Su Yu thought Gu Changle was scared and wanted to comfort him.
But he felt like he saw a little excitement in Gu Changle's eyes?
"Forehead......"
"We are civilized people and we are reasonable."
"You won't fight."
I must have seen it wrong...
