Wang Ge looked at the snowflake silver on the table, which looked like official silver.
The official silver ingots of the Great Qi Dynasty were divided into 5 taels, 10 taels, 20 taels, and 50 taels, and it is said that there were also 100 taels.
However, the first three types are more commonly used among the people, while fifty taels and one hundred taels are relatively rare.
There were two large and two small silver ingots on the table, obviously two silver ingots of twenty taels and two silver ingots of five taels, plus some loose change.
Although Ye Lao San just said that it definitely exceeded his expectations, Wang Ge still asked in disbelief: "Third brother, is this something we did together?"
Ye Lao San pushed the silver in front of him and said, "It's all yours, take it!
"But don't tell anyone, and it's best not to even tell your mother.
"Be careful your sister and brother-in-law are coming to try to steal your money again!"
Wang Ge was completely dumbfounded. He looked at the silver on the table, then looked up at Ye Lao San, and suddenly tears started streaming down his face.
"Look at you, why are you still crying? As the saying goes, men have tears..."
Before Ye Laosan could finish his words, he saw Wang Ge kneeling down in front of him.
"Oh my god, what are you doing?" Ye Laosan was startled and quickly reached out to help.
The noise in the room was so loud that Lin Yumei, who had been listening to the noise in the opposite room, finally couldn't help but come over and knock on the door to ask what happened.
Seeing this, Ye Lao San quickly called for help: "Sister-in-law, please let Wang Ge get up quickly. What a mess!"
Lin Yumei had never seen Wang Ge cry like this in all the years she had been married. She was startled and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Wang Ge grabbed Lin Yumei and pointed at the silver on the table to show her.
"Look, this is the dividend that Third Brother gave me!"
Lin Yumei was also shocked when she saw so much money.
Although she had received a lot of rewards when she had a chrysanthemum viewing banquet with Mrs. Ye before.
But that time it was because everyone gave face to Princess Rui. Such a good thing doesn't happen normally.
Especially for a kitchen helper like her, such an opportunity may not come around once every few years.
But Wang Ge earned this money through his own hard work and skills.
I've only been working for less than a month and I've already received fifty taels of silver!
This is almost Wang Ge’s total income over the past six or seven years.
It would be great if we could make and sell it all year round.
It’s a pity that Young Master Qin said that the building block business only makes the most money during the period before the New Year. After the New Year, when others start to do business, the price will definitely plummet.
Even if I continue to make building blocks, the most I can earn is probably some hard-earned money.
In any case, at a time when everyone at home was falling out, the sudden income made her feel more at ease.
Lin Yumei's eyes were moist. She wiped the corners of her eyes with her sleeve and said, "Third brother, I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. Forget about the child's father. I want to kneel down for you when I see so much silver."
"What are you two doing?" Ye Lao San was at a loss. "You know, I'm okay at carpentry, but my painting skills are far inferior to Wang Ge's. You earned this money by your own ability."
"Third brother, there are so many talented people in the capital, isn't it easy to find someone who can paint?
“And Wang Ge told me that it was Third Brother who took the initiative to say that he would give him a share of the profits.
“To put it bluntly, even if Third Brother offered him five taels of silver as wages, he would still be happy to come here.
“But when Third Brother encountered a good opportunity, he not only didn’t forget us, but also remembered to help us and gave us so much dividends.
"My husband and I will keep this kindness in our hearts and will never forget it."
Lin Yumei was good at talking, and a few words made Ye Lao San blush. He waved his hands and said, "You are too kind, really too kind.
"When I first arrived at the woodworking workshop, Wang Ge helped me a lot, and later we got along very well.
"Besides, you work for my sister-in-law, and I think our two families are not strangers. When good things happen, we should help each other. Isn't this the right thing to do?"
Lin Yumei burst into laughter, stretched out her hand to pull Wang Ge up and said, "It is a blessing for our family to meet Madam You and Third Brother.
"From now on, our two families will treat each other as real relatives. If there is anything you need us for, Third Brother, just ask. Don't be polite with us."
Wang Ge wiped his face and nodded repeatedly after listening to his wife's words.
"Yes, Third Brother, if you need anything in the future, just give me your instructions.
"If I frown or stumble, it's all because I have no conscience!"
Lin Yumei was speechless when she heard her man speak so confidently all of a sudden.
Fortunately, it seems that the Ye family is a kind family and not the type to repay a favor.
"By the way, I'm going back with my eldest brother and his family tomorrow. What are your plans?
“If we go back tomorrow, then we’ll go together.
"If you want to go back later, we'll leave first."
Ye Lao San finished his words and explained, "My eldest sister-in-law is going to participate in a cooking competition during the Little New Year. I have already postponed my return to wait for her. I can't delay any longer."
"That's right!" Lin Yumei slapped her thigh and said, "I've been feeling like I've forgotten something these past few days. It turns out it's a cooking competition!
"Let's go back together. When Madam You comes to the city to participate in the cooking competition, she can just stay with me..."
Lin Yumei originally wanted to say that she could live in my house, but when she thought about the confusing account between her family and her mother-in-law that had not yet been settled, she had to go back and face it after hiding for so many days.
Ye Lao San finally steeled himself and said, "It's nothing. Just stay at our house. We'll clean up the wing room when we get back."
