Su Yu was not stingy at this moment. She opened the snack box on the table. The octagonal box was divided into small compartments. There were some snacks in each compartment. These were what Su Yu usually liked to eat. She When I have nothing to do, I like to lie on the recliner with my arms in my arms, eating and thinking at the same time.
"Auntie, come here and have some snacks."
Ji had never seen so many snacks before, and she no longer had to worry about whether to buy jewelry or not.
"Yu Yatou is still kind to me. I know that my aunt likes to eat snacks."
As she spoke, Mrs. Ji sat down at the table and reached out to get some snacks from the snack box. At this moment, Mrs. Ji only cared about eating and didn't even bother to talk to Su Yu. The speed of eating made Su Yu stunned. Didn’t you just have lunch? Can you still eat this?
Looking at the half-box of snacks that had been put into the box without much effort, Su Yu also admired Ji. This snack box was not small, and the half-box of snacks must weigh at least two kilograms.
Ji ate too quickly and choked. She quickly poured a glass of water and drank most of it before she felt better.
After eating and drinking, Ji finally remembered the purpose of her visit.
"Yu Yatou, when did your family come to Kyoto City?"
"After my brother passed the scholar examination last year, the Imperial College gave us a place and our family came to Kyoto City."
Su Yu didn't lie about this. The people in Laozhai could find out if they were willing, so she couldn't let her lie about it.
"Then where did you live before you came to Kyoto City?"
"I live over there in Xingyang Mansion. I can't tell you the details."
"Then what were you doing in Xingyang Mansion before you came to Kyoto City?"
The Ji family is not stupid either. It is impossible for the second child's family to become rich as soon as they come to Kyoto City. I heard that this damn girl came here last year, so her family has made money since they left their hometown. It is really heartless. As a family, even if you make money, you won’t take any money home. In the past two years, without a second home and a family, life in the old house has been difficult.
Ji had forgotten that although Su Lao'er's family had no contact with anyone in the old house, they would still ask someone to bring back two taels of silver every year. This was the pension money agreed upon when the family was separated.
For people who lived in the old house, if they didn't buy the pen and ink used by Su Chen, two taels of silver would be enough for their family's expenses for half a year.
"Then what did your family earn money from before coming to Kyoto City?"
"Farming, as you know, uncle, besides farming, what else can my father do? Our family grows a lot of vegetables and sells them to restaurants. This is how we save money."
Seeing that Su Yu was serious about what he said, Ji didn't believe a word of it. How much money can you make by growing vegetables? If you can make money by growing vegetables, the life of the people in the village will be tight. Who in the village I don’t know how to grow vegetables yet.
But if Ji Shi asked again, she wouldn't be able to get anything out. Su Yu's deception was just a matter of whether she wanted to or not. If she wanted to fool someone, there was nothing she couldn't do, not to mention that the other person was Ji Shi's kind.
In the yard, Mr. Su saw his daughter-in-law following the girl from the second son's family into the house, and turned around to look for Mr. Su.
"Second brother, let's go to the backyard and watch the cows."
"Brother, I have to go see Brother Yan."
"Look at the potential of your idea. Your son is not guarded by your wife. Brother Yan has been injured and lying in the house these days. You just plan to stay with him in the house all the time."
Seeing that Mr. Su had this intention, Mr. Su looked down on him even more.
"I just want to talk to you for a while, I don't care about this moment."
After finishing speaking, Boss Su didn't listen to what Su Lao Er had to say, and took the others to the backyard.
"Second brother, why did your family buy so many cows?"
Last night, Boss Su was shocked when he saw the cows in the backyard. He didn't expect that the second brother's family would buy eight cows at once. In the village, even Mr. Liu's family didn't have so many cows.
Anything that can be seen at home is considered a good thing for the people in the old house. Su Yu found an excuse. He told Su Yan earlier when he was in the house, just to prevent the family from talking inconsistently and causing the old man to complain. Home people are suspicious.
"We bought cows because the restaurant needs milk, so the six we bought were cows and only two were bulls."
Thinking of what his daughter said, Su Laoer felt that her daughter was really prescient. If she hadn't reminded her before, he must have said that he would buy it back to plow the fields.
If you say this, it's okay. Who can buy eight cows to plow their fields? How many fields does that family have?
To tell the truth, I'm afraid they won't be able to keep these fields.
The Su family's fields are not a secret in Jinjia Village, but the people in the old house are not out now, so they don't know much about it.
Su Laoer is also worried about this. In his opinion, it is only a matter of time before his parents and eldest brother know about their family's fields. What will he do to keep his family's fields? These fields were all bought by his daughter. , in the future, most girls will bring them as dowries when they get married.
Although Su Yu is not very old now and it will be a few years before she gets married, Su and his wife have already been worrying about her dowry for a long time.
Boss Su knew that his second brother had a restless temper, and judging from the farm tools stored in the woodshed, the second brother's family must have a lot of fields, but he didn't know how much.
"Second brother, your family has been in Kyoto City for almost a year. How many fields have you bought? Tell me about it."
Well, I am really afraid of what comes. Zhu and Su Lao Er are afraid that their eldest brother will ask this. How can I say that my daughter has not said it now?
"Brother, I didn't buy much land."
Boss Su stared closely at his second brother. He knew that when he lied, Boss Su didn't dare to look at anyone and would only look at his shoes. But at this moment, Boss Su was looking straight at him. Boss Su I knew that his second brother was not lying.
But what he didn't know was that Su Laoer was indeed not lying. He didn't buy many fields. All those fields were bought by his daughter.
"There isn't much land, so why did your family buy so many hoes and sickles?"
Su Laoer paused for a moment, but quickly found an excuse for himself.
"Brother, you also know that I like farming. Although I don't have much money, if I buy the farm tools first and put them away, there will always be fields."
The second brother Su felt that this second brother had changed. If this had been done in the past, the second brother Su would never have said that. He felt that there must be something wrong with it.
"Second brother, do you remember Heizi?"
"How could you not remember, what happened to Heizi?"
"Heizi has left the village."
"how come?"
"His wife died of illness not long after you left. When he went to work, no one took his son with him and he drowned in the river. Then he left the village and now we don't know where he went."
Speaking of Heizi and hearing that his wife and children were gone, Su Laoer felt a little sad for a moment. When they were in the village, Heizi had the best relationship with him.
