Chapter 276: Parents who love their children will make far-reaching plans for them
She knew Master Chai's personality and background, and knew that he was a man of real ability, otherwise he would not have sent Sang Xinghao and Xiao Zhao to school.
Since Sang Xingjia now intends to ask the other party to help act, why can't she pretend to be ignorant and add fuel to the fire from behind to transform the pretend master-disciple relationship into a real master-disciple relationship?
The satisfaction you get from teaching young children and teaching teenagers who already have a certain level of cognition and self-awareness is different.
No matter how indifferent to fame and fortune, no matter how aloof and proud one is, one cannot resist the temptation of teaching his disciples to achieve academic success and get their names on the imperial examinations.
If that time really comes, I'm afraid that Master Chai will take the initiative to comfort Sang Xingjia without Sang Yu having to persuade him much.
Sang Yu even felt that Sang Yongjing, who came up with this idea, was a genius. Ordinary people could never come up with such a brilliant idea.
Sang Genius Yongjing was completely unaware of his daughter's praise for him. He had a bitter face, afraid that his son would be fooled and afraid of his daughter's scolding. He felt like he was neither a good person nor a good person.
Sang Xingjia was delighted. He was wondering what to bring to the door. He had originally planned to steal two dried salted fish, but now he could even save on the salted fish.
It's not that he is stingy, he just has no money. The few copper coins he has left have been almost spent on buying candied haws.
Most of the Sang family's money was given to Old Lady Shi for safekeeping. Since there was no paper or pen, she memorized everything in her mind.
Now that she has more money and has paper and pen at home, she has even started keeping an account book.
The amount of money received and spent, as well as the total amount, are all clearly visible at a glance.
In fact, it was not so clear originally. Although the account book is a good thing for recording accounts, there is no system. All the income and expenditure are recorded in one book, which makes it very troublesome to check.
However, after Sang Yu suggested using both uppercase and lowercase Arabic numerals to record accounts, recording income and expenditure separately, and recording by year, month, and day, the originally cumbersome account book suddenly became easy to understand and convenient.
Sang Yu also handed over this accounting method to Liu Mao, who would do the daily accounting and send her a copy every two weeks for her grandmother to check and review.
Although she was willing to give Liu Mao a certain degree of trust and freedom, there were some things that had to be guarded against, and being cautious was never a bad thing.
Since there is an account book with income and expenditure records, as the eldest son of the Sang family, he should at least bring some money with him when he goes out.
But except for Sang Yu, everyone else in the Sang family, including Sang Xingjia himself, felt that the money was basically earned by Sang Yu.
It was enough for them to enjoy the house built based on their blood relationship, and they shouldn't spend her money extra.
This statement seems a bit unfamiliar, and Sang Yu himself does not mind spending money on his family. Why should the family be so clearly divided? Besides, they can't spend much money.
After a heated discussion, they finally reached a conclusion that both sides reluctantly accepted.
Although most of the ideas were from Sang Yu and she was the one who made the money, the family members still contributed and should receive a certain amount of compensation.
As a result, everyone in the Sang family received a dividend, with a small amount paid out monthly and a large amount settled at the end of the year.
Sang Yu really couldn't understand why the money had to be divided so clearly.
After spending a long time together, she understood the temperament of the whole family well enough and knew that they were not the kind of people who would spend money lavishly, so she felt that there was no need to do this.
But later, Mrs. Shi took her hand and explained it in detail.
"Yu'er, Grandma knows you're smart and have all sorts of ways to make money. Our family is working together and thriving, which is great, but..."
"But your eldest brother is not young anymore. He will probably get married in a few years. He will have to build a house and get married. This money should not be paid by you."
"While Grandma is still here, we should sort things out clearly as soon as possible to avoid trouble when the new bride comes home."
"Grandma knows you have a kind heart and will never mistreat your family, but time passes and people's hearts change! Alas—"
At the end of her speech, Mrs. Shi sighed deeply and stared at the sky in a daze. I don’t know if she was thinking of her other sons whom she had not seen for a long time.
The Sang family is now united and working together to make their lives better. But things change, and no one can say whether this harmony can be maintained once the family becomes wealthy.
It was not until this moment that Sang Yu completely understood why her grandmother had made such a fuss. The saying "Parents who love their children will plan for them in the long run" was true.
I'm afraid that the reason why Xie Qiujin was so active today was that she had thought of the hidden dangers that might occur in the future.
This is a bit off topic, but anyway, because of this, Sang Xingjia, a sixteen-year-old boy, had less than ten cents on him and was really short of money.
Sang Yongjing did have some money, but most of it was small change, which he kept for personal use. He only spent it in emergencies or special circumstances, and he only had a dozen or so coins at his disposal.
The father and son together could not even scrape together twenty cents, and each was as poor as the other.
The richest person in the family who can spend money at will is naturally Sang Yu.
As long as she said she needed money, Mrs. Shi would count the money and hand it to her without asking what it was used for.
After all, it was her own money that she earned, so even if she squandered it, others had no right to blame her.
After returning home, while Sang Yu was distributing candied haws to his grandmother and mother, Sang Xingjia pulled Sang Yongjing and carried the load to the stream.
All he left was this: "Dad and I are going to wash the bucket. We'll be back soon."
Seeing the two of them rushing out of the courtyard, Mrs. Shi felt strange: "Don't they want to rest for a while?"
Normally, I have to rest for a while before getting up to work after coming back. Is he so excited today?
Sang Yu glanced back, smiled, opened a string of candied haws that had been stored separately, and handed it to Mrs. Shi.
"It's okay. You're just trying to do something bad behind my back, that's why you're so anxious. Grandma, you eat it. I asked Dad to remove the seeds from this candied haws."
Seeing that she knew the inside story, Mrs. Shi immediately relaxed. She took the candied haws and slowly took a bite of it. She said vaguely, "Don't buy me any more in the future. It's a waste if I can't finish it."
Sang Yu knew that the old lady liked sweet and sour food, so she smiled and said, "It's cold today, so it can be stored. Eat one or two every day, and you can finish them in four or five days. There will be no waste."
The three people here were chatting and laughing in harmony, but the two people by the stream were worried.
Carrying the load, he ran all the way to the stream. Before he could catch his breath, Sang Xingjia, feeling guilty, looked back. Seeing that the place was empty and there was no one around, he felt a little relieved.
"Dad, please help me get some bamboo tubes so I can make milk tea."
Sang Yongjing, who was still catching his breath, was obedient and did whatever he was told.
He even didn't look back because he knew Sang Yu would not come out. He seemed calmer than Sang Xingjia who looked back from time to time.
